Transmigrating to the Beastman Continent to Live a Happy Life - Chapter 97
Upon hearing this, Xiao Kai said with doubts, “About this, I don’t understand why the Giant Wolf Tribe came to us. The tribe chief will surely explain it to us later.”
Wu Xiaoyin thought the same. If something big had happened, the tribe chief would surely notify everyone. He just didn’t expect the notification to come so quickly!
As soon as Xiao Kai finished speaking, a roar of a beast echoed. Lei Lu immediately put another giant sheep skin hoodie over Xiao Xiao’s little rabbit-fur pullover, then donned a giant cowhide coat on the outside, wrapping Xiao Xiao from head to toe in a cloak before heading to the square.
Lei Lu and Wu Xiaoyin’s cave was a bit distant from the square. By the time they arrived, most of the beastmen were already there, holding their females. Lei Lu brought Xiao Xiao to stand beside Kos and Feng, quietly waiting for the tribe chief Kun to speak.
The purpose of the Giant Wolf Tribe’s visit was still unclear, especially during this cold season. Even though the northern regions were colder, traveling southwards meant warmer temperatures, yet the snowstorms along the way were tough for the beastmen. What could be so important that the Giant Wolf Tribe traveled so far to the Giant Tiger Tribe?
Everyone quieted down, their expressions a bit serious. When Kun finally spoke, he said, “My fellow tribesmen, the warriors of the Giant Wolf Tribe braved the extreme cold to come to our Giant Tiger Tribe because their priest predicted that this year’s cold season might be longer and that the snowfall would be heavier. Worse yet, the Giant Wolf Tribe’s priest foresee that next hot season will be hotter, and the following cold season will be even harsher than this one.”
“Our tribe’s priest has also confirmed this. It’s known that our priest’s predictive abilities are better, and the Giant Wolf Tribe’s predictions suggest that hope lies within our Giant Tiger Tribe. So, I want to ask if we can temporarily lend some of our tribe’s food reserves to the Giant Wolf Tribe.”
“Our tribe’s members have prepared enough animal meat to last through the end of the growth season. Even if this cold season is a month longer than usual, it shouldn’t be a problem. Moreover, the Giant Wolf Tribe has promised to return the equivalent amount of animal meat to us next year and will offer herbs at a price that is 30% lower than in previous years.”
“Now, fellow tribesmen, do you agree to lend food to the Giant Wolf Tribe?”
After hearing the tribe chief’s words, the majority of the beastmen expressed their support. Most beastmen on this continent are kind and friendly. Naturally, they want to help the neighboring Giant Wolf Tribe in difficulty. The most important thing was that the cheaper herbs next year made the simple-minded beastmen happy.
So, after gaining the agreement of most tribe members, the tribe chief nodded and quickly informed the Giant Wolf Tribe of the decision. He then approached Lei Lu and Wu Xiaoyin, who were puzzled by the tribe chief’s visit.
Lei Lu asked, “Uncle Kun, is there something you need?”
Hearing Lei Lu’s question, Kun looked at Wu Xiaoyin and said, “There is something I want to ask Xiao Xiao. Can you share the method for making doors with the Giant Wolf Tribe? This year’s cold season is expected to last an additional month and a half, which will greatly affect the females and cubs. Some weak females and cubs might even face life-threatening conditions!”
“Of course, we will trade you sufficient herbs and animal skins in return, but that would have to wait until next year. Would that be acceptable?”
Wu Xiaoyin and Lei Lu exchanged glances, and Lei Lu replied, “Sure, Uncle Kun. Xiao Xiao would be willing. As for the animal skins and herbs, we’re not in a hurry. They can be given next year.”
Kun nodded with relief and said, “In that case, I’ll go back to the cave where the Giant Wolf Tribe is temporarily staying to share this good news.”
Thinking of the Giant Wolf Tribe’s journey, they were located in the northernmost part of the known beast tribes in the Beastmen Continent. Logically speaking, aside from food, it was the temperature that females and cubs couldn’t stand, so Wu Xiaoyin said, “Uncle Kun, could you also tell them how to make beds? We shouldn’t let the females stay in cold and damp conditions for too long. Also, please share how to use giant ginger and giant spicy fruit. That can help maintain the body temperature of the females and cubs.”
Kun nodded excitedly and then patted Wu Xiaoyin’s head, saying, “Xiao Xiao, I’m really glad you think this way. We in the Giant Tiger Tribe are happy and proud to have a member like you! Hahaha!”
Wu Xiaoyin understood what the tribe chief meant, but in this Beastman Continent, mutual assistance was needed, especially during harsh trials. If the beastmen didn’t unite, life would become even more challenging.
After Kun left, he shared the good news with the warriors of the Giant Wolf Tribe, who then came to Lei Lu and Wu Xiaoyin’s cave to express their gratitude. They promised that if Lei Lu and Wu Xiaoyin needed help in the future, the Giant Wolf Tribe would be there without hesitation.
The group spent one night like this and they departed. After all, the females and cubs of the Giant Wolf Tribe were still waiting for hope and warmth from the beastmen warriors.
