Chapter 396 - 395, Beast God’s Blessing_1
Facing the young female, the renowned stern and grumpy old shaman unconsciously softened his tone: "Are you here to bring food for this lad?"
The female nodded and said softly, "Uncle Shaman, how is my mate now?"
Worry was etched deeply across her small face.
The old shaman chuckled, "For now, he’s fine. He needs to continue drinking bitter water and changing his medicinal powder on schedule. All these things are being taken care of by Shaman Ji Nuan. My old bones can’t be much help."
The female’s eyes shone as she looked at Ji Nuan, quickly bowing in gratitude, "Shaman Ji Nuan, thank you for caring for my mate. I’m so grateful."
Looking at the tear-filled eyes of the young female, Ji Nuan stepped forward to help her up, "No need to thank me. We are all children of Lord Beast God, I couldn’t just stand by as one of us is dying. Go make him some food."
The female, grinning, nodded and moved to the orc’s side with the meat. She cut the raw meat on the large leaf into small pieces with a stone blade, picking one piece up, ready to feed the orc.
Ji Nuan’s eyes widened, not even going to cook it first?
Immediately, he intervened, "Wait!"
All the orcs in the tent turned to look at him. The old shaman sounded puzzled, "What is it, Ji Nuan?"
Ji Nuan sternly said, "Are you still eating raw meat? Raw meat and fresh blood are the sources of parasitic diseases in our bodies. It’s best to boil food and river water before consumption. Especially now, since he’s injured in the abdomen, it’s better if he eats some cooked meat soup."
Both the old shaman and the other orcs in the tent had their eyes wide open. The female even dropped the raw meat from her hand onto the leaf, her face had turned slightly pale.
Ji Nuan shook his head, went over to pick up the meat from the leaf, walked to the stone pot, poured water into a clean pot, and put the meat into it. Only then did he turn back to the female, "Feed him this meat after it’s cooked. If you’re not sure about anything, you can ask him."
With that, he pointed to the orc who was preparing medicine on the side.
The female pursed her lips and nodded, "Shaman, will eating raw meat truly cause parasitic infection?"
Ji Nuan nodded seriously, "Raw meat, fresh blood, and unboiled river water all contain microorganisms that we can’t see. Only fire can kill them. If you consume them directly, they will reproduce in your body, creating parasites. Even if the parasites are expelled by taking the medicinal powder this time, if you continue eating raw meat, drinking fresh blood, and unboiled water, you’ll be infected again."
At this point, the old shaman spoke up, "Shaman Ji Nuan, do none of the orcs and females in your tribe drink blood?"
Ji Nuan nodded, "Ever since a female had an outbreak of parasitic infection and was saved, we haven’t drunk blood."
"Don’t the orcs and females in your tribe feel weak?" the old shaman asked Ji Nuan.
Ji Nuan shook his head, "I know what you’re talking about. Our tribe has found a substitute for beast blood, a powder. We don’t have to drink blood and we don’t have to worry about weakness."
Both the old shaman and the orcs in the tent had a look of astonishment in their eyes, gazing at Ji Nuan, "You truly are a shaman blessed by the Beast God!"
Ji Nuan: "..."
Whatever you say!
"I was wondering if your tribe would be willing to trade this powder with us?" A familiar voice came from the mouth of the tent.
