Chapter 875 - 874: Dubi’s Whereabouts
Fu Yi helplessly glanced at him, "Dubi is right in our tribe, and if you’re looking for him, you can come back with us. But we’re about to collect herbs now, so just wait a bit."
Kaka, delighted upon hearing this, immediately grinned broadly and step forward, "Wait for what? Let me help you guys. What herbs are you collecting?"
As an evolutionary beastman, Kaka was very agile. With his help, the task of gathering Tasteless Grass became much easier.
Before the evening meal, Ji Nuan and the others were already on the road back to the tribe.
Kaka, running behind the orcs, felt a small thrill of excitement in his heart. He’d soon see Dubi, and the smile in the corners of his mouth never dropped along the way.
When Ji Nuan and the others returned to the tribe, they happened to meet Xiu Yan and the Hunting Team, who were coming out to look for them. Seeing the female being escorted back by the orcs, Xiu Yan let out a deep sigh of relief.
Frowning, he approached, "I said I would take you when I get back, didn’t I? The cold season is approaching, and many large wild beasts have started hunting crazily to stock up on fat. It’s too dangerous for you to take so few orcs out."
Ji Nuan giggled and stretched out both arms to Xiu Yan, who, helplessly, stepped forward to lift her down.
He also shot a sharp glare at the orc who had been carrying Ji Nuan.
The orc tucked his tail behind him and scurried to the back timidly.
Meanwhile, the anxious Kaka tugged at the sleeve of an orc nearby, "When will you guys take me to find Dubi?"
The orc glanced at him, "In a bit. Captain Fu Yi has already informed Dubi, and he’ll come here shortly to meet you."
Dubi was fast. As soon as the orc finished speaking, Dubi had already appeared not far from the city gates.
"Kaka!" His voice was full of excitement.
All of Kaka’s fur stood on end, and he instantly reverted to his orc form, his mouth grinning so wide it almost reached his ears as he also ran toward Dubi.
Watching the two foolish beasts reunited after a long separation, Xiu Yan patted the little female’s hair in his arms, "And who is this?"
Ji Nuan lightly chuckled and briefly recounted their herb collecting adventure and meeting Kaka to Xiu Yan by his ear.
Xiu Yan nodded emotionlessly. He wasn’t particularly interested in the beastman named Kaka, as long as Nuannuan hadn’t been hurt.
Ji Nuan was led away by Xiu Yan.
Fu Yi, on the other hand, took the orcs to bring the collected Tasteless Grass to the medical team’s yard for unified processing.
At this moment, Kaka, having just seen his long-awaited brother, was finally slow to remember the massive thing that had surrounded the Watson Tribe when he first arrived.
Right now, he was sitting somewhat dazedly in Dubi’s yard, while Chang Zao brought a small basket of fruit to the stone table in the tiny pavilion in the center.
The yard was covered with a huge grass mat where the cubs sat playing with a few newly acquainted friends, emitting bell-like laughter from time to time, utterly adorable.
Dubi served the food he’d just prepared, fluffy and fragrant purple fruit rice along with savory stir-fried pickles and meat.
He and Chang Zao had arrived not long ago, and this cuisine was what they were best at making.
Chang Zao fed the cubs on the meadow while Dubi and Kaka sat in the pavilion.
As he eyed the food in front of him, which exuded an irresistible beast-attracting aroma, Kaka’s stomach uncooperatively growled.
