Chapter 783 - 782, Competition_1
Ya Li was quite smug, "Absolutely, this is a herb that can cure fevers, my eye injury was totally worth it."
Hearing the Orcs bragging behind her, Ji Nuan chuckled and shook her head, "Brother Xiu Yan, we’re going to starve at supper."
The Orcs were so focused on carrying the injured Ya Li back that they completely forgot about the game they left behind. All they had left for food were the roasted meats they had brought from the Monte Tribe.
Xiu Yan took off his Beast Skin clothes and handed them to Ji Nuan, "I’ll go hunting and come back soon."
Ji Nuan accepted the clothes with a careful reminder, "Then be careful."
Xiu Yan nodded, turned around and dove into the forest.
"What is Xiu Yan doing?" Ya Li turned back to ask upon hearing the noise, catching only a glimpse of Xiu Yan’s back disappearing into the forest.
Ji Nuan chuckled, "The tribe was so concerned about your injuries, they forgot to bring back the game. Xiu Yan went hunting."
Hearing this, Ya Li turned back to the guilty Orcs, "Are you guys Humming Beasts or something? You didn’t even bring back food. Are you guys planning to drink wind in the jungle at night?"
The Orcs nervously laughed, "How about we go get our game now?"
Ji Nuan humorously looked at the Orcs, "Your hunting wounded the game and spilled blood. The smell will attract other wild beasts. There might only be a skeleton left by now."
Xiu Yan was very fast. As Ya Li was still scolding his unsteady subordinates, Xiu Yan had already returned with two Bear Beasts. Seeing the plump bear paw made Ji Nuan couldn’t help but swallow his saliva.
Ah, Bear Paw~ It’s been a long time since I’ve had it.
Seeing Ji Nuan’s greedy look, Xiu Yan couldn’t help but remember how Ji Nuan looked at the Gray Bear Tribe’s bear paw, a smile flashed through his eyes.
He threw the two giant Bear Beasts on the ground.
The Orcs rushed up and voluntarily carried the two Bear Beasts off to be dealt with.
The Bear Beast meat was very delicious that night. Ji Nuan ate a whole bear paw and felt so incredibly pleased.
The full and satisfied Orcs set up the night watch and then went into their tents to rest.
Still thinking about the Ginger, Ji Nuan also had an early night after finishing his wash up.
The next morning, Ji Nuan was woken up by a series of exclamations. He rubbed his eyes and sat up, "What’s going on? It’s so noisy."
He went to the corner, splashed some water on his face, and instantly woke up, "Ah! A beautiful day has begun."
He fixed his hair, lifted the tent curtain and stepped out, instantly stunned by the small mountain of ginger on the open ground, "What the heck! What’s going on here?"
"Shaman, look quick. Xiu Yan and Ya Li are having a ginger digging contest. Look how much they’ve got. Hahaha."
As soon as the Orc finished, two figures came rushing from a distance. It was Xiu Yan and Ya Li carrying two large baskets. The Orc-sized baskets were packed to the brim with earthy-yellow ginger, startling Ji Nuan.
These two are really going to wipe out all the ginger in the Lamu Forest, Ji Nuan hurried up to stop the two Orcs about to leave, "That’s enough, don’t go anymore."
Xiu Yan turned to Ji Nuan, "There’s more."
"Yeah, Shaman Ji Nuan, this ginger is so good, we should take it all back."
Ji Nuan looked at them speechlessly, "Save some. What if our Eneru Forest is not suitable for growing ginger? We might need to come back here. What would we do if all the ginger is gone? We have to be sustainable; always leave some herbs where they grew."
