Bringing a System to the Beast World

Chapter 359 The Warriors' Whispers
After bowing gratefully, the orc grinned foolishly and walked back to his hunting party.

'Ah~ the little female's hands are so soft, but she's a little too thin~'

Completely unaware of the warped thoughts in the orcs' minds, the orc warriors were looked at with eyes that resembled those of an idiot.

What kind of intelligence is that? It was so bumpy and tearful. After being healed by the little female, it doesn't seem very smart anymore.
The look in Wu Yue's eyes carried a hint of fear. Could it be that Wu Yue's witch power was not strong enough, so the treatment of her head caused some irreparable damage?

Wu Yue had no idea about the orc warriors' ramblings.

She was leading the Snow Tiger Witch and the clan chief into the house. The ground was not yet paved with bricks, but was just compacted soil. Even so, it looked clean and tidy.

The Snow Tiger Witch was deeply shocked. He had never imagined that his little brats would actually build houses that were better than those of the largest tribes.

“Witch, this is the house we built according to the design of the super tribe that Yuan Lang described.”

Yuan Lang said there were some places he couldn't see very clearly, so we can build it according to our own ideas. What do you think?

Don't ask, it's what Yuan Lang said, anyway, it has nothing to do with her.

Snow Tiger Shaman nodded: "Very good, very good! This house is much better than those stone houses."

Wu Yue chuckled and pointed to the roof above: "I used the same method I used to build the thatched shed, so there's no need to worry about it leaking even when it rains."

Everyone knows that the thatched shed built before May doesn't leak when it rains, so there's no doubt about the roof's rainproof function.

"Great! That's wonderful! Hahaha!"
Our Snow Tiger tribe now has houses that are even better than those of the larger tribes!

Chief Snow Tiger burst into hearty laughter.

This was the first time Wu Yue had ever seen the usually composed clan leader so overjoyed, and she knew he must be extremely happy.

"Witch, you may stay in this first house!"

This house is the best place for you to live, as it will serve as the center of our tribe's future construction.

We are building a courtyard with houses for you to live in, houses for storing herbs, and houses for your orc warriors to protect you.

You'll love it once it's built.

Upon hearing this, Xuehu Wu shook his head: "No, this old man isn't in a hurry. Let's build for you guys first."

Wu Yue laughed and said, "That won't do. I can't live in the very middle."

After saying that, he went straight forward and ushered the two big shots out of the house: "You can stay here."

When the two big shots first saw Wu Yue like this, they were both amused and exasperated.

Seeing the sincerity of the children, Snow Tiger Witch no longer refused, and the smile in her eyes and on her face could not be contained.

The Snow Tiger Clan Chief, standing to the side, could only express his extreme envy.

Since the task of firing bricks and tiles could only be done by the orc warriors, the shaman directly transferred all the orc warriors who had previously followed Yuan Lang to his side.

With a wave of his hand, he said with great magnanimity, "They're all yours now. You can use them however you want."

The Snow Tiger Clan Chief selected some half-orcs and pure-human males to help make brick and tile blanks and collect stones.

With the help of the clansmen, the construction progressed by leaps and bounds, and the shaman's courtyard was built in just one week.

The spacious courtyard is surrounded by waist-high wooden stakes. Directly opposite the entrance is the shaman's house, and perpendicular to it are the kitchen and the room where herbs are stored.

On the other side was the warehouse and the living quarters of two orc warriors.

The entire courtyard looked magnificent, attracting people from the whole tribe to come and see it.

Wu would pass by every now and then, looking at the place where she would live in the future, and she couldn't be happier.

But soon, he stopped looking beautiful.
Since the small courtyard had been completed for quite some time, Wu Yue did not mention letting him live there again.

The witch felt a little sad and quietly waved her hand, summoning an orc warrior: "Go and find out if the house is still under construction."

The orc warrior glanced at his shaman, trying his best to hide the smile in his eyes, and nodded repeatedly as he walked out.

Is Wu eager to move into a new house?
Unaware that her little scheme had been seen through, Wu Yizhen solemnly arranged the herbs, but her ears kept twitching, and she was anxious.

He even felt a little wronged. Could it be that these little brats thought the new house was too nice and didn't want him to live there anymore?

It's rare to see a witch have such dark and scheming thoughts.

When the orc warriors found Wu Yue and his companions, they were lying on several stone platforms made of bricks, feeling around.

"What's this?"

Good heavens, these guys look like mud monkeys, their entire bodies except their faces are covered in mud.

In front of the two stone platforms, there were two things that looked like stoves, with fires burning brightly inside.

Upon hearing the orc warrior's voice, Wu Yue stood up: "Why have you come here?"

This orc uncle is an old hand of the shaman.

The orc warrior nodded, a clear smile in his eyes: "The shaman sent me to ask if your houses are finished yet."

With that question paired with the smile in his eyes, Wu Yue instantly understood the meaning of his words, and immediately felt a bit amused and exasperated.

Their shaman is really a bit like a child. He promised to give him a house to live in in front of the whole tribe. Do you think he can be eaten by a few of them?

“Yuan Lang and I plan to build the shaman’s house into a model house, including the sleeping and eating areas, so that the tribespeople can see what the house will look like when it is completed.”

As she spoke, she pointed to the stone platform where they had been climbing: "This is a stone bed for sleeping. We are still working on it. Once it's finished, we'll ask the shaman to make it. You can tell the shaman to wait a few more days."

The orc warrior looked at the stone platform she mentioned with a strange expression. After a moment, he said, "Moon, the witch likes to sleep in a fluffy nest of hay. Stone beds are too hard, and they get very cold in winter..."

He wanted to say that the shaman was old and sleeping on such a stone bed was bad for his health, but thinking of his shaman's petty nature, he first secretly looked around before saying, "The shaman doesn't like it."

Seeing his cautious demeanor, Wu Yue couldn't help but laugh: "Don't worry, once we build it, Wu will definitely like it."

Seeing Wu Yue's confident demeanor, the orc warrior had no choice but to nod and leave to report back.

The orc warrior thought his shaman would be unable to resist coming to watch, but to the orc warrior's surprise, the Snow Tiger shaman, after hearing his words, simply smiled and continued to work on his potions.

The orc warrior scratched his head in confusion and went out looking bewildered.

Little did they know that Snow Tiger Witch was secretly delighted, thinking about the food and utensils that Wu Yue had made. None of them were things they had ever seen before, but they were all very popular and useful.

If he were to entrust his house to her for cleaning, wouldn't he be able to simply move in? He'd have to be crazy not to be happy about something so good.

Xuehu Wu was overjoyed, but Wu Yue and his team's research on the heated kang bed had hit a bottleneck.

Because heated brick beds didn't exist in the era Yuan Lang and his friends lived in, Wu Yue, a good-for-nothing who grew up in the city, had only heard of them but never seen or built one.

Of course, it was also completely in the dark.

However, remembering what Tongzi had said before—that the stone bed in the cave Yuan Lang had dug for her could be used as a kang (heated brick bed)—Wu Yue kept it in mind.

They simply built a square frame and covered it with a stone slab.

A hole was left at the very front to connect to the stove.

The stone slab is hot, but...

Damn, it's either cracked or the front is hot enough to roast but the back is ice cold, it's not even at all. Is this really a kang (heated brick bed)?

Wu Yue didn't believe it...

Faced with the suspicious looks from the three orc warriors, he could only awkwardly scratch his head: "I've never slept on a kang like this before, I've only heard of it, so I don't know how to build one..."

After a failed construction test one day, Wu Yue sighed and said, "I'd better go back and think about it first. If anything happens, we can continue."

Teng Qian and Teng Kun nodded: "It's alright, no rush, there's still a long time before winter."

After saying that, he left to make bricks and tiles.

Although they had been in this world for some time, the two of them were still used to living in houses, so they naturally hoped that as many bricks and tiles as possible could be fired so that they could build their own houses as soon as possible.

Back in the tent, Wu Yue ruthlessly pulled her blue robot cat out of her bag: "My lovely robot cat, your delicate host has encountered an enormous difficulty."

The system, which was pretending to be asleep, was instantly disgusted when it heard its host's affected and pretentious voice.

After goosebumps danced wildly, it reluctantly opened its round eyes: "Host, you only show this kind of attitude when you need me."

If you were here to settle scores with me, you would have already grabbed me by the leg and started hitting me. I know your true nature all too well.

Despite being looked down upon, Wu Yue wasn't embarrassed at all and shamelessly sidled up to him: "Do you know how to build a heated kang bed?"

The system staggered, its four paws trembling: "Master, do I look like someone who has slept on a heated brick bed?"

Wu Yue: "..."

I'm not attacking you personally, but you, as a leader, really don't need to sleep on a heated brick bed.

However, she would never say such a thing when she needed the emperor's help.

Therefore, Wu Yue's attitude was incredibly kind: "I've only seen it on TV dramas, but I've never slept with anyone or researched it, so of course I don't know!"

Tongzi licked its little paws, sat up, and stretched out a chubby little paw.

Seeing this, Wu Yue reached out and grabbed it; the chubby little pads felt very comfortable.

She even squeezed it; it felt nice.

The system's face darkened: "Host, why are you grabbing my hand like that? I'm trying to get you to spend points..."

Upon hearing this, Wu Yue chuckled dryly, slowly moving her hand away, feigning ignorance, and asked, "Points? What do you need points for?"

Seeing the host's appearance, the system snorted twice: "Blueprints for building a heated kang bed, fifty points, and permanent usage rights."

Wu Yue's face stiffened. What the heck? Do blueprints have a limited lifespan or something?

"Exchange! Exchange!"

Reluctantly stuffing the animal hide with the construction plan for the heated kang into her bosom, Wu Yue looked at the construction plan on the animal hide and couldn't help but twitch her lips: "Damn system, why does this fifty-point blueprint look like flies crawling out of ink on it?"

Does such an abstract drawing cost him fifty points?
The system looked at her with an expression that said, "You still have the nerve to ask?": "You still have the nerve to say that? A normal construction blueprint only costs twenty points at most, but because the system has to copy your notes to draw it, there will be an extra thirty points for the labor fee."

Wu Yue: "..."

It's not very harmful, but extremely insulting!
Are the drawings she made really that hard to understand?
To prove that her painting skills were not as bad as Tongzi said, Wuyue took out a new animal hide and carefully copied it again.

But looking at the drawing in front of her, where only the lines were slightly smoother, she had to admit that she really didn't have much talent for drawing.

Tongzi: "..."

If you don't have the talent, just admit it. Why blame it on others?

After finishing the sketch, Wu Yue didn't linger and immediately went to the construction site to find Yuan Lang and the others.

Looking at the familiar drawing in his hand, Yuan Lang couldn't help but smile broadly: "Hmm, it's a little better than last time."

Wu Yue chuckled dryly. Damn it, this was the result after she redrawn it. As for the original manuscript that the system offered a high price of fifty, it was still gathering dust in her system space.

System: "A high-class system space wouldn't have dust like that!"

Wu Yue: "Shut up."

With the blueprints in hand, building the heated kang (a traditional heated platform bed) was no problem. However, for safety reasons, the orc warriors specially made kang boards to cover the kang.

The sturdiness of the kang board that was built this time was astonishing to Wu Yue.

"I never expected that the soil excreted by these yellow ants after they swallowed the food would have such an effect."

Everyone's eyes were filled with surprise.

Everyone was naturally filled with anticipation for the heated kang bed that Wu Yue had mentioned.

However, due to incorrect construction methods or unstable stone slabs, the kang (heated brick bed) had either collapsed or only partially heated before, and had never been successfully built, posing a great danger.

Now that the new kang (heated brick bed) has been built and covered with a sturdy board, Teng Qian nervously wiped the sweat from his palms on his animal skin skirt before lighting the fire in the stove.

The firewood crackled and popped as it burned, and gradually the kang (heated brick bed) warmed up. The cozy feeling made the orc warrior lying on it sweat profusely, yet he was reluctant to get off.

"It's really hot! This heated kang bed is really warm!"

"It's so hot everywhere, we won't be cold in winter, haha!"

The orc warriors, who had previously had little confidence in the fire pit blueprints that Wu Yue had presented, were so excited that their tails and ears were practically sticking out.
