Bringing a System to the Beast World

Chapter 547 Let's get to work!
Uk glanced at her but said nothing before lowering his eyes to continue chewing the wilted wild vegetables in his hand.

How long will it take us to return to our tribe?

A cold, female voice echoed in the cave, sounding particularly eerie in the darkness.

But Uk only raised his eyelids slightly, thought for a moment, and then said, "It will take another three or four days."

Nilo frowned deeply upon hearing this. Three or four more days? Did that mean she would have to live in this filthy cave for the next three or four days, living a life worse than a pig?

"Hurry up, I never want to live in a cave like this again."

Even if it's just for this one day, she can't take it anymore.

Uk was silent for a moment: "Wizard, our tribe cannot live without you. Everything I have done is for your safety."

He did not agree. As an orc warrior, Uk knew how terrifying orc warriors' sense of smell was. If there wasn't a strong scent to cover it up, Wu Yue and the orc warriors around her would probably have discovered them long ago.

Niro glared fiercely at Uk. Although she was furious, she thought of her own life and snorted twice before covering her mouth and nose with the animal skin on her body, leaning against the cave wall and closing her eyes.

She was exhausted. Ever since she started cultivating the Gu worms, she hadn't had a proper rest. Then came the battle with Wu Yue and the subsequent escape. Now, leaning against the mountain wall, exhaustion overwhelmed her like a tide, and even the fishy smell in the cave didn't seem so unbearable anymore.

Seeing that Niro was asleep, Uk, who was sitting on guard at the cave entrance, couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Finally, things quieted down, and at that moment he suddenly felt somewhat grateful that Ni Luo had looked down on him before.

He had slaves to take care of him in the tribe, so he always felt that it was only right for Niro to have many of his habits and demands. As a wizard, it was not a big deal to make more demands.

But now, he finds such females unbearable. He thinks he should find some ordinary females instead, who are obedient and well-behaved, and he doesn't have to take care of them. He just needs to feed them every day.

The two fled in fear, unaware that because of the old man's earlier obstruction, Wu Yue and Yuan Lang did not pursue them, but instead returned to the Snow Moon Tribe.

The next morning, the Uk tribe slaves, who had slept in a thatched hut all night, were awakened by the males responsible for guarding them.

"The tribesmen are all up and getting ready to hunt and gather, and you slaves are still sleeping. Get up and get to work."

Shouting at the slaves before them, the males felt a sense of satisfaction. They had been uneasy and afraid because of the attack by the Uk tribe. If it weren't for the return of the wizard and the orc warriors, they didn't know what would have happened. Now, looking at the Uk tribe slaves begging for mercy at their feet, the joy in their hearts was indescribable.

Yingze and his companions, who were watching the commotion from a distance, did not stop them. These slaves used to be ordinary tribespeople, and even lived quite well in the tribe. Now that they had become slaves of the Snow Moon tribe, they probably wouldn't be able to adjust to their new status so quickly.

If the tribespeople tidy themselves up, they will behave much better.

“There’s a large meadow where we used to take soil to build our house. The grass there is too tall, and it’s close to the tribe, so snakes and some poisonous insects keep coming into the tribe. Several cubs have been bitten, and even some old people and females have been injured. Let’s take them there to clear that area.”

Teng Kun pointed to the outside of another gate.

Yingze nodded: "Yes, the place is quite large, it should be enough for wizards to grow things."

The males of the Snowmoon Tribe secretly glanced at their orc lords, and seeing that they did not stop them from dealing with these little trash from the Uk Tribe, they all winked and chuckled.

“Take them to clear out the long grasslands outside the tribe.”

Yingze spoke up.

Several males in charge of guarding the area straightened their chests and shouted orders, driving the Uk tribe's males toward the long grassland.

Meanwhile, the two males that Yuan Lang had called away earlier were diligently clearing the weeds in Lord Wuyue's courtyard and turning over the soil along the area that Lord Beastman had marked out yesterday.

"Lord Wuyue is really strange. The shamans of other tribes sit quietly in their caves, mysteriously doing who knows what, but Lord Wuyue likes to grow wild grass. Aren't these wild grasses everywhere in the forest?"

The male, while huffing and puffing as he dug, whispered to his companion beside him.

“What you see as weeds are actually medicinal herbs that can heal and save lives in Lord Wuyue’s eyes. If we work hard for Lord Wuyue now, maybe he will be happy and keep us here.”

The injured male had hope on his face; compared to the rest of the tribe, the two of them were already doing very well.

As soon as Wu Yue stepped out of the house, she saw two unfamiliar males busy in the yard, each holding a wooden stick. That was the place where she planned to plant herbs and wild vegetables.

"Lord Wuyue."

When the two males saw her come out, they hurriedly bowed respectfully, feeling uneasy, after all, this was the first time they had been so close to Lady Wuyue.

Wu Yue raised an eyebrow at the two of them: "Are you members of the Uk tribe?"

The two nodded repeatedly: "Yes, Lord Yuan Lang asked us to come to your courtyard to till the soil."

The injured male pointed tremblingly to the ground behind him and whispered.

Since Yuan Lang had brought them, Wu Yue nodded and didn't ask any more questions. She just looked at the wooden sticks in their hands with amusement: "Is this what you use to turn the soil?"

Seeing that she didn't show any disgust, the two males breathed a sigh of relief: "We...we don't have claws."

The male beside him changed his expression slightly and quickly said, "Although we don't have claws, we will work hard."

Wu Yue smiled and waved her hand: "This is not a problem with the claws. You should first find some stones suitable for grinding stone tools, and I will teach you how to make a tool for turning over the ground."

"tool?"

The two repeated the unfamiliar word, both somewhat bewildered. What was that?
Seeing their application, Wu Yue smiled and pointed to the wooden sticks in their hands: "It's a kind of stone tool used to turn the soil."

The two males exchanged a surprised glance. Weren't stone tools for hunting? How could they be used to till the land?
Wizards are truly amazing.

Having received Wu Yue's instructions, the two hurriedly ran out of the yard and found a male busy in an open space.

Upon seeing that they were two members of the Uk tribe, the male was about to lose his temper, but when he heard that the two said that Lord Wuyue had ordered them to come and find stones to make stone tools, although he still disliked the two, he eventually led them to the place where the stones were piled up.

When the two returned to the courtyard with the stones, Wu Yue was already sitting in the kitchen eating breakfast. The fragrant cornbread paired with the rich meat broth made the two males' mouths water. "This smells so good! Our chieftain and Ni Luo Wu have never eaten such delicious food before!"

Thinking back to the raw meat and fruits that Chief Wuke and Witch Niro had eaten with blood on them, the two once again felt the joy of coming to the Snow Moon Tribe.

They are just ordinary members of the Snow Moon tribe. Maybe they will be able to get such delicious food in the future. It's wonderful to think about.

Seeing the two return, Wu Yue got up, took two palm-sized cornbreads, and tossed them to them, saying, "Eat something first, and I'll teach you how to grind stone tools later."

"Ours?"

The two of them hurriedly caught the flying cornbread, their eyes wide with surprise. They had just been thinking that if they made more contributions, they would get some in return, but now it was already in their mouths.

"Thank you, Lady Wuyue!"

Wu Yue waved her hand casually: "Eat up, the cornbread won't taste good if it gets cold."

"too delicious!"

*Smack smack!*

At that moment, a thought suddenly popped into their minds: if Lord Yuan Lang had offered them cornbread to join the Snow Moon Tribe, they probably would have agreed immediately.

No, how could I be such a male? They wouldn't betray their tribe for a tortilla, but...
The corn tortillas are so delicious!
Seeing the two of them finish a corn tortilla in two bites and then stare at her longingly, Wu Yue's lips twitched wildly. Don't look at me, I will definitely not give you any more. Two bites each is too much, okay?

Wu Yue carefully examined the stones the two had brought, and pointed to two of them, saying, "These two stones will do. Just sharpen this end, and only sharpen these two sides."

The uninjured male looked at the two stones, each only as long as the female's arm, patted his chest, and said, "Lord Wuyue, leave the task of polishing the stone tools to me. I can do it all by myself, very quickly."

The injured male nodded in agreement: "Lord Wuyue, don't let his thin appearance fool you, the stone tools he makes are the best in our tribe. Even orc warriors bring food to him to have their stone tools made."

Wu Yue glanced at the male with great surprise and nodded approvingly: "Do a good job. If you perform well and make enough contributions to the tribe, I will reward you handsomely."

Upon hearing this, the two males felt their blood boil. The wizard would not lie, and in an instant, they felt that the future was bright.

After the initial excitement subsided, seeing his companions already busy while he stood there unsure of what to do, he felt a little uneasy. Just as he was about to ask Lord Wuyue what he could do, the wizard came out carrying a burning wooden stick.

"Bring me the sticks you just used to turn the ground."

Seeing that he had something to do, the male hurriedly picked up the wooden stick.

Wu Yue used another small, burnt black stick to draw two circles on the thicker end of the two sticks, then handed him the burning stick in her hand: "Use this burning stick to burn through the areas I drew circles on. We'll need it later."

The male nodded solemnly: "Don't worry, leave it to me."

Having said that, he excitedly picked up the burning stick and began to work.

Wu Yue chuckled and touched her nose; people in this era are truly honest and simple.

After all, he was a male who often ran and hunted in the forest, so he was very strong and had great endurance. Wu Yue went into the house to prepare some medicine powder that would be used in the upcoming trip to the Uk tribe. She had only prepared two kinds of medicine powder when she heard two people calling her from outside.

"it is done?"

Looking at the perfectly smooth stone tools and wooden sticks in their hands, Wu Yue blinked in surprise. They had not only made them, but they had also made them very exquisitely.

"Put the narrower end through the hole burned into this stick and hammer it in with a stone to make it more compact."

As she spoke, she picked up a wooden stick and a stone tool to demonstrate to them, and in no time, a simple hoe was made.

The two males stared blankly at the unfamiliar stone tool before them. Could this thing turn the ground? How did they use it?

Wu Yue dragged the newly made hoe to the spot where the two of them had turned the soil before, raised the hoe and swung it down, then up again, turning over a large patch of land.

The two males standing next to her couldn't help but gape: "This is amazing!"

"Did you, Lord Wuyue, come up with this kind of stone tool?"

Upon hearing this, Wu Yue shook her head: "This was something the tribe members came up with in the past. Our tribe started growing our own food a very, very long time ago."

He handed the stone tool in his hand to the male beside him: "With this stone tool, you'll be able to work much faster."

After saying that, he turned around and went back to continue preparing his medicine powder. He had to make sure he was well-prepared to kill that little piece of trash, Nilo. He couldn't be lazy.

Meanwhile, the Uk tribe members, who had been led by the males of the Eagle Swamp and Snow Moon tribes to the so-called long grassland, were dumbfounded when they saw a grassland in front of them that was taller than themselves.

Good heavens, this place is practically the territory of poisonous insect beasts and snake beasts.

They all stared expectantly at Yingze and the males he was guarding, wondering if they were being sent here to their deaths.

Yingze glanced at the male members of his tribe standing to the side: "Give them the medicine powder."

The male nodded respectfully, then took the basket he had been carrying on his back and walked towards the Uk tribe: "This contains medicinal powder that can repel poisonous insects and snakes. It's very precious, and each person only gets one packet. Just put it in your animal skin clothes. If you throw it away, hmph!"

Those sinister little eyes made the males of the Uk tribe clench their anuses in fright. Why are you making those groans? It's so scary!
Although she was complaining in her heart, she was even more careful when she took the medicine powder packet.

A male even brought it to his nose and sniffed it, and then a somewhat pungent smell wafted out of the medicine packet.

The male grimaced as he tucked the medicine packet into his pocket, still filled with worry and doubt: would this medicine packet really work?

"Alright, pack up the medicine kits. Your task is to pull up all the weeds in this area. Don't be lazy, or you won't get any food if you don't finish."
