ribe This is where she was born and raised. For their tribe, it would be an immense honor, after all, a deity came from their tribe.When the shaman of the tribe communicated with the shamans of the Bl...Because of his partner Duo Duo, Rong had known Ripples as well. So after that, he went to Ripples' burial place too. He smelled the metallic scent of wild beast blood and a very faint trace of Ripples' scent, but he didn't smell any blood belonging to Ripples.

In his view, the other party was most likely still alive. They were probably hiding to avoid being tracked and might have used something to conceal their scent. If they expanded the search, they should be able to find them, dead or alive. However, Sang looked as if the other party had been killed, heartbroken and devastated.

After that, Rong slowly drifted apart from Sangshu. He basically stopped hunting with him and unfortunately, Sang didn't realize this. He thought that because Rong hadn't hunted for a long time, he had simply changed partners.

Dodo did not receive a reply from Rong. She was unhappy and twisted his arm, saying:

"Why aren't you talking"

“I heard, now I basically don't partner with him to hunt anymore.”

He muttered in a low voice.

"That's better, I'll stay away from Sang in the future."

"I understand. Take care of yourself and the little ones in your belly. Don't worry about anything else."

Dodo then nodded with satisfaction.

On the other side, Lian'er was living comfortably with the Heishe Clan. When her original body had an accident, it happened to be the first month of the warm season. Lian'er and Dúlì walked along the way, stopping and starting, and it took them another month to reach the Heishe Clan's territory by the third month of the warm season.

Ripple participated in two hunts with the Black Serpent tribe's beastmen, which were really just about finding new food. She also instructed the females on how to use existing materials to make delicious meals, so time flew by. Before they knew it, the first month of the hot season had arrived, most noticeably with a rapid increase in temperature. The first batch of snake fruit was also ripe.

Tai gave Lianyi a plate of ripe snake fruit, letting her taste it and see if she could find a way to store it for the long term.

Liàn Yī didn't hesitate. She peeled off the thin outer layer and took a bite. Her eyes widened immediately. The snake fruit had a sweet and sour taste just right. Inside, there were only a few sesame-sized seeds, and it was especially juicy. Most importantly, it contained a faint energy that could indeed enhance physical strength, somewhat similar to the body-cultivation fruits in the cultivation world.

In a little while, the ripples finished eating the small plate of snake fruit and then went directly to find Tai, asking him to bring her another plate of snake fruit tomorrow, and also some honey. She wanted to try making snake fruit jam.

Tai, upon hearing that he could preserve mangoes for a long time, immediately agreed. The next morning, he arrived at Lin's temporary residence early and delivered the things she had requested.

The chieftain said, "If the snake fruits aren't enough, you can just get more anytime. The honey is from the witch, and the new honey hasn't been exchanged back yet, so we have to wait a while."

"Okay, I'm not sure if it will definitely work. Let's try making a small jar first and see if we can eat it during the rainy season."

Even ripples have no absolute certainty.

We all understand that, you can try it with confidence!

After Tai left, Lianyi busied herself. She first peeled the serpent fruit and then put the flesh into a stone pot, crushing it. She added spring water that covered the red fruit flesh, placed the stone pot over the fire, brought it to a boil over high heat, and then reduced the heat to low and simmered it slowly.

While cooking, stir continuously in one direction to prevent burning. When the fruit flesh becomes mushy, add a little honey and let it fully blend with the snake fruit. Once the honey is mixed well, turn off the heat and taste a small amount.

Although the juice has been boiled dry, it doesn't affect the taste. The energy within the snake fruit hasn't been lost, instead, it's even stronger. The finished snake fruit jam is like a red jewel, dotted with sesame seed-sized seeds, it looks very appetizing.

After the snake fruit jam has completely cooled, scoop it out of the stone pot and place it in a new ceramic jar.

The next day, she took the snake fruit jam to see the chief Si and the shaman. She let them both taste it and then orally explained the method of making it.

“Chieftain, Shaman, I cannot be certain right now if the snake fruit jam will keep through the rainy season and remain effective without becoming poisonous. So I've only made these for now.”

I suggest that the family not rush to harvest and process them right away, but instead store these processed items. Wait until the rainy season comes around, then open them up to check for any issues. Next year, you can then process any extra snake fruit into sauce.

Because the processed snake fruit has a longer shelf life, the Black Snake tribe can use this unique jam to trade with other beast tribes, such as the Bear Tribe's honey.

Si and Wu both tasted a small amount of the ripple-brewed snake fruit jam. They both thought it was very good, especially Wu. He could communicate with shamans from other beast tribes, and if possible, he would definitely be able to exchange for some herbs unique to other beast tribes.

"Great! We've got it down, Lian-Yi. Thanks for your help."

The clan leader seemed much happier.

Then the ripples bid farewell. After all, she had stayed in the Black Serpent tribe for so long. Now that it was entering the hot season, more medicinal plants would grow, and she wanted to visit other beast tribes.

This time, Si and Wu didn't try to persuade her. They knew that Lianyi was a servant of the Beast God and had her own mission to fulfill; she couldn't stay with the Black Snake tribe forever. Besides, Lianyi had already brought them so much; they couldn't be too greedy.

In the end, it was still Tai's team responsible for escorting Lianyi and Du out of the Black Serpent tribe's territory.

When leaving, ripples had also acquired a large animal skin wrap. She didn't refuse it, and so after ten days they left the Black Serpent tribe's territory.

Because the forest was entering the hot season, the temperature was constantly rising, making it muggy and stifling. So, Ripple and Solo avoided the hottest part of midday. They set out before sunrise, this time heading for the territory of the bear clan.

It's just that some were reluctant, after all, snakes and bears are natural enemies. The two clans barely get along on the surface. They don't like each other in their daily lives, and their territories are somewhat distant, separated by a very wide river, clearly marking a boundary between them.

After leaving the Black Snake Clan, the two walked for ten days straight. One day, Ripple discovered a patch of garlic and excitedly dug it up, guarding it alone on the side. After all, with the arrival of summer, the animals in the forest were unusually active.

Before that, they also encountered a group of elephants drinking water by the river to cool off. Luckily, Ripple had discovered them in advance and avoided these forest overlords. Otherwise, Duo and Ripple would have been trampled.

Because he hadn't found the herd of proboscideans before the ripples, he felt rather ashamed. As a male beastman, his alertness was actually worse than the females', which deeply hurt him.

Especially when ripples looked at him, that light touch of an eye, with no aggression, yet incredibly insulting.

From then on, Duke took the initiative to take charge of the guard duty.

"Ripples, I smell blood."

He frowned and said.

"Well, there are some wounded orcs."

The ripples have already been felt. A battle is taking place right now at the riverbank between a brown bear and a caiman, it's already bloody, that's why the smell of blood can be smelled from so far away.

I'm going to take a look!

I'm going to go take a look.
