Chapter 922 - 921, Magical Fur
Xiu Yan chuckled lightly, "The fur of the Melting Beast is quite magical, go ahead and touch it."
Although Ji Nuan knew that Xiu Yan was changing the subject, she had finished saying what needed to be said and followed the conversation, reaching out to touch the fiery red Beast Skin beside her.
She had thought it would only be softer and smoother than the other hunted Beast Skins.
But to her surprise, the Beast Skin was warm to the touch, radiating a faint warmth.
Ji Nuan quickly stuffed her other hand into the Beast Skin, and soon, her palm felt as if it were wrapped in warmth.
She arranged the Beast Skin behind her and turned to look at the orc with gentle eyes, "With this Beast Skin, there’s no need for cotton clothes even in the cold season.
Moreover, with so much Beast Skin, making several Beast Skin garments shouldn’t be a problem."
Xiu Yan helplessly shook his head, "It’s not as good as you think. The heat-emitting Beast Skin is just a patch from the belly of the Melting Beast, the rest of the skin is just ordinary, though tougher."
Ji Nuan felt a bit disappointed upon hearing this, she had thought about making a set of Beast Skin clothes for herself and Xiu Yan.
Now it seemed a bit difficult for that piece of Beast Skin.
This time, due to the attack of the Melting Beast, several tribe members had bone injuries.
So, Ji Nuan and the others rested there for a few days, and the items damaged by the Melting Beast were also replenished.
One day, Ji Nuan got up early, washed up, and went to the tents of a few injured tribesmen.
Orcs dislike nurturing injuries because they are used to being active; having to lie still and not move is harder than killing them.
Thus, when they saw Ji Nuan coming, their eyes brightened.
Seeing a group of orcs staring eagerly at her, Ji Nuan glared at them, "Nurturing your injuries isn’t a bad thing, look at you all."
The orcs chuckled, their faces filled with anticipation.
Seeing this, Ji Nuan stopped dawdling and examined their injuries one by one.
She put the used cloths into a small porcelain basin filled with hot water before turning to the orcs, who were propping up their upper bodies and looking expectant.
"Your bones have healed, but you still shouldn’t touch them forcefully..."
"Ow, ow, ow~ finally healed."
"My bones were almost rusting."
"Let’s go hunting later, I want to eat roasted Sheep Beast."
The orcs, like wild horses that had broken free, started hopping around the open area outside the tent.
"Cough, cough!" A light cough came from inside the tent.
The orcs stiffened their bodies and quickly turned around, lining up with their heads drooping.
Just like a bunch of big, guilt-ridden Gouzi.
Seeing this, the reprimand Ji Nuan was about to deliver dissipated instantly.
In the end, she just glared at them, "If your injuries recur, don’t come to me, hmph~"
With that, she picked up the healing supplies beside her and walked away.
It wasn’t until Ji Nuan entered the tent that the orcs looked at each other and then burst into toothy grins.
Only one orc looked a bit worried, "Do you think the Shaman might really get mad and stop caring for us?"
The orcs exchanged glances, chuckled, and walked forward, wrapping an arm around that orc’s shoulder, "Brother, you must have joined the tribe just before the cold season."
The orc nodded, "Then, kid, you’re quite strong to have become a member of the Guard Team so quickly."
