Orc Girl's Tribal Daily Life

Chapter 70 Returning to Daily Life at Little Stone Mountain

Bee fluid is different from honey. Bee fluid is a special kind of bee's bodily fluid, which can also be called blood.

Because it is colorless and transparent like clear water, it is called bee water, which is also to distinguish it from honey and avoid misunderstanding by other tribesmen.

Bee water is mainly produced by a type of bee called the black-tailed bee. Other bees can also collect it in small quantities, but the black-tailed bee is quite different from most bees.

Other bee species that can roam freely in the Taz Forest generally have extremely potent venom on their stingers.

However, black-tailed wasps are different. Their stingers do not contain toxins, but instead have certain medicinal and therapeutic value, especially for burns and other injuries. They are extremely effective in reducing swelling and relieving pain in a very short time.

The shaman hadn't added bee water to the medicine for treating the young simply because there weren't any black-tailed bees readily available in the tribe at the time.

The honey from black-tailed bees is only effective if extracted within one day of the bee's death. Black-tailed bees are not creatures that can be domesticated by tribesmen; once captured, they usually die the next day due to suicide or other reasons.

Therefore, bee water can only be collected and used immediately, otherwise it will be of no use if left for too long.

It was only yesterday that the members of the herb-gathering team returned, escorting back some of the herbs the shaman needed. They also caught a few black-tailed bees, which gave Jiang Luoluo new herbs to use.

Jiang Luoluo carefully put away the new herbs given to her by the witch and politely nodded her thanks. The witch just looked at her, as if the two of them had some little secret in common. The witch smiled and winked.

"Next time, you can try it here, Luo," Wu said with a gentle smile. "Especially the dangerous ones, don't make others worry."

The shaman knew that the cub had many wonderful ideas and wanted to try many things, but the other tribesmen couldn't understand what the cub was doing and would stop it if they saw danger.

But with him, regardless of how much safety is guaranteed, he is at least more accepting of some of the cubs' behavior. He can also feel more at ease with the things the cubs do, like the brown ones or other tribesmen.

After all, he was a witch.

Jiang Luoluo nodded to indicate that she understood. Mao and He then bid farewell to Wu in turn, and the three of them returned home under the cover of night.

Brown was still a little angry, but he didn't want to vent his emotions on the cub, so he kept quiet and didn't say a word the whole way.

The cave, which used to be filled with conversations, was unusually quiet today.

After finishing their meal and tidying up the housework, the two of them prepared to rest and go to sleep.

Jiang Luoluo carefully sat down on the edge of the stone bed, took the initiative to extend her hand to Hei to express her apology, and ended this rather cold war.

Just as the witch had said, when Jiang Luoluo woke up the next morning, she found that her mouth had returned to normal and she could feel nothing in her mouth. She looked at her reflection in the water and saw the not-so-clear reflection of what was inside her mouth.

Even though the witch had hinted yesterday that Brown could give the cub more freedom and let it try more of the things it wanted, Brown was not prepared to continue letting the cub run wild.

So after breakfast, Brown practically watched the cub pack her things, and then took the cub with her to the small rocky hill.

It was another day of continuous rain, with a light drizzle, a little heavier than yesterday, and a layer of white mist in the morning.

Mao had actually come looking for Jiang Luoluo in the morning, wanting to go to Xiaoshishan with Jiang Luoluo and He, but He chased him away.

He told Mao to continue training on the small rocky hill at the previous time and not to waste time with them.

After all, as a teacher, He always arrived at Xiaoshishan much later than the children, while Mao would always arrive early to train diligently in order to secure a good spot on Xiaoshishan.

That's right, Brown was actually taking his anger out on Mao.

But there was nothing he could do; he couldn't really get angry at the cubs, so Mao had to bear the brunt of the anger.

Jiang Luoluo, who hadn't been to Xiaoshishan for a long time, received a warm welcome as soon as she arrived, and many children gathered around to exchange things with her.

The light drizzle, carrying a layer of misty white fog, did not dampen their enthusiasm; they surrounded Jiang Luoluo in layers upon layers.

Fortunately, Jiang Luoluo was prepared. The burlap backpack she was carrying contained two wooden jars of jam, as well as the burlap backpacks that no one wanted before.

The burlap backpack that no one paid attention to a few days ago was snatched away by several children as soon as Jiang Luoluo took it out.

It turns out that these past two days, the little boy Zhuang has been showing off his burlap backpack to everyone. Unlike ordinary cloth bags, the burlap backpack is convenient, easy to secure, and has a large capacity, allowing it to hold more things. This has been noticed by the other children.

After learning that Jiang Luoluo was responsible and had done a lot of it, they had been waiting for her to come and make the exchange.

Of course, the main item exchanged was jam. Some children had exchanged less before and finished it quickly, while others secretly made extra for themselves.

There's still plenty of jam left at Jiang Luoluo's house, so there's no need to worry. She replaced all the jam before Ge came back.

The exchange didn't take Jiang Luoluo long. The other children got what they wanted and continued training, their excitement undiminished by the rain.

Jiang Luoluo soon started to feel bored.

As a six-year-old child, she could only wear her own grass raincoat and sit in her own little corner watching everyone train... She couldn't see clearly because of the rain and fog.

There's a reason why the tribe requires children to be ten years old before they can go to Xiaoshishan for training.

Children under ten years old have not yet fully developed their bodies; they are fragile and soft, and their physical condition is not very stable. They are prone to injury and accidents, and they cannot withstand such intense training and exercise.

He initially pulled Jiang Luoluo into training with everyone because he didn't expect that he would continue to take Jiang Luoluo with him.

If we assume it's just a one-day special situation and don't consider the consequences, we should definitely let the cubs play with the older children so they don't feel isolated, which would make it easier to care for them.

However, if it's a long-term issue, you need to consider the cub's physical capacity and not let her engage in more exercise than her body can handle.

Soon, Brown noticed the cub's boredom. After thinking for a moment, she gave the cub several large pieces of Earth Stone so that she could practice making new Earth Stone weapons.

Brown is worried that if he doesn't find something for the cubs to do, the cubs will sneak up on something scary again, just like yesterday.

Previously, the Earth Star Stones that Jiang Luoluo could obtain were all very small pieces, which could only be made into miniature props suitable for her age.

This time, whether to pique Jiang Luoluo's interest or as compensation, He specially brought out several Earth Star Stones of near-normal size for the cubs to choose from.

It was at this moment that Jiang Luoluo finally remembered how terrifyingly time-consuming manual labor was.

When He came to call Jiang Luoluo home for lunch at noon, Jiang Luoluo hadn't even finished one-fifth of the stone weapon in her hand.

The reason is simple: the miniature stone knife doesn't actually need much sharpening. The small Earth Star Stone can be easily bumped and cracked into a perfectly shaped form, leaving little room for correction.

Large Earth Stone weapons are different; every tiny corner must be meticulously polished to create a truly perfect Earth Stone weapon.

So for the entire morning, Jiang Luoluo was immersed in the love-hate relationship with this Earth Star Stone.

"Uh, Luo, what are you doing?" Brown looked at the nascent weapon in the cub's hand, but couldn't recognize what it was, and his face was full of confusion.

"An axe." Jiang Luoluo answered silently.

However, looking at the finished product in her hand, Jiang Luoluo glanced at it and realized that it was no wonder that He couldn't recognize it.

Because Jiang Luoluo made an unusual axe that she had used in a game before, which was much more fancy and elaborate than the common axe shape.

Not only is it double-edged like a butterfly, but it also has several sharp spikes extending from the blade, making it look very intimidating, yet quite fragile.

Brown easily broke off one of the spikes with a little force. Brown looked at the cub innocently and let go. The spike fell to the ground with a crisp sound.
