Chapter 4, The Season of Sorrow
Speaking of the cold season, Ji Nuan's already dry face instantly wrinkled up.
The cold season here is really terrible. The cold wind rages throughout the cold season. Except for a few days when you can go out, you can only live in a cave for the rest of the time.
No one is chasing her disability, so Ji Nuan's only consolation now is that there is still more than half of the hot season before the cold season, which is more than 3 months on earth.
The Orc Continent consists of a rainy season, a hot season and a cold season. The rainy season lasts for 2 months, the hot season lasts for 6 months, and the cold season lasts for 4 months. She came at a time when the prey in the forest was plump and the fruits began to mature.
season.
In order to survive, she, a disabled little female with no support from the orcs, must hurry up and stock up on food!
The staple food of the orcs is all kinds of meat, and the females will eat some fruits. However, the fruits that females eat in this world are only a few kinds of fruits. Vegetables and the like are all grass and cannot be eaten by the orcs.
Ji Nuan walked out of the cave, picked up some broken branches from a few trees not far away, and then tied the new softer branches together to make a simple "broom" to clean the three caves.
After a while, he went to the small river in the middle of the tribe to soak a piece of old animal skin, carefully wiped his two-meter-long bed, and then spread all his belongings-a few large animal skins on the bed.
.
She was in a tight situation. Looking at the naked patches here and there on the bed, Ji Nuan speechlessly gave up on the fantasy of covering her two-meter-large bed with animal skins. Haha~ The animal skins were not enough...
All she could do was lay a piece under her body, and save another piece for making a quilt. She had been covered with quilts for more than 20 years, but suddenly without a quilt, she would feel insecure.
Then she put today's rations distributed by the tribe into the big cave on the right. Ji Nuan sighed sadly. This was all her belongings, five pieces of animal skins, a piece of meat as big as a palm, and a few green ones.
There will be no ripe fruit.
The corner of her mouth twitched. It seems that the urgent task now is to solve the problem of food and clothing first. Although she is a tigress who is still struggling with food and clothing. Yes, her body is actually a white tiger female cub, but
She is still human at heart!
She really couldn't eat this bloody raw meat!
Fortunately, she had a barbecue at Wu's place today, otherwise she would starve into a limp tigress tomorrow.
The sky outside the cave has begun to darken, and the orcs who have returned from hunting gather in the open space in the middle to handle their prey. The female smiles and takes the animal skins peeled off by the males and takes them to the public cave to hang them up. This is what they rely on in the cold winter.
The animal skin keeps you warm.
The beasts here are huge in size, and their lethality has doubled. The orcs go out to hunt in teams of several people, and then return to the tribe to share it equally. Although the prey is large, the skin and internal organs are removed and cannot be eaten.
There is not much left to share, and many orc families only eat half full, and have to save some for tomorrow, because not every day they can hunt prey.
Although there are some very powerful orcs who can kill a prey alone or with a few people, there are too few such warriors. According to Ji Nuan, it seems that only uncle Xiuli and the clan leader's family in the tribe can eat enough and have enough food.
Surplus grain.
