But she was only there to carry out a mission and had no intention of exploring the laws of this world. Her mission was to survive, and how she survived and what kind of life she lived was entirely up to her mood.

For example, the trade with the Tiger Tribe involving the heated kang (a traditional heated bed) technology and the gift of information about the edible chili peppers were all based on her mood. Initially, the trade with the Tiger Tribe for salt went smoothly, so she didn't mind developing a closer relationship with this top-tier orc tribe.

Nothing happened that night, except that Ye didn't sleep well on that simple straw bed. The next day, she, Hu Qing, and Eagle Hunter wandered around the tiger clan's territory, trying to find some new food.

"Ye, what's wrong?" Hu Qing anxiously helped the female sitting on the ground to her feet.

Ye ignored Zi's sore bottom and stared at the few broken grass leaves in her hand: "I'm fine. Help me pull this out. I want to see the roots underground."

Hu Qing glanced at what she was trying to pull out, and while reaching out to remove it, asked, "Hey, what do you need that for?"

"Soil root?" Ye keenly grasped the key point. Useless plants wouldn't be named. This thing has a name; it's either edible or a medicinal herb.

"Humans and herbivorous beastmen collect some earth roots before the cold season arrives. When there isn't enough prey, they eat earth roots." Hu Qing explained nonchalantly, "This stuff is hard to eat. During the cold season, my falcon hunter and I only can't hunt on the coldest few days, so we just stock up on some meat in advance. You don't need to eat this."

Ye recalled that her original tribe did not seem to have eaten this.

"How are they all eating?"

"Just roast it and eat it. It's bitter and choking. When I was little, I saw the herbivorous tribe's beastmen eating this. I was curious, so I took a bite." Hu Qing didn't continue, but that bite left a deep impression on him.

In just a few words, Hu Qing had already dug out the root. No wonder she couldn't pull it out; the root was nearly half a meter long and as thick as an adult's arm, and white sap was oozing from the broken tendrils.

Yam?

"Let's just pull out this one first, and I'll try it out when I get back to see if I can eat it."

"It really doesn't taste very good." Hu Qing emphasized again, but his hands were not slow. He patted the soil off the roots and put the leaves into his spatial storage.

Perhaps humans simply enjoy this taste?

After that, Ye didn't find anything else, so he picked some edible fruits and wild vegetables, and also picked some chili peppers.

Some tiger-kin beastmen and females had already come to pick chili peppers, and they greeted them warmly.

"Tiger Green, out playing with a female?"

"Let's go pick some fruit," Hu Qing replied.

Ye found an unpicked spot and started picking chili peppers. Hu Qing also helped pick them. Eagle Falcon Hunter was in beast form during the day and couldn't do such delicate work.

"Ye, what kind of prey do you want to eat? I'll go hunt it."

"Snake meat, stir-fried with dried chili peppers, would definitely taste delicious."

Snakes? That's a piece of cake for a falconer. He nodded to indicate that he understood. He couldn't just hunt snakes. The females needed to eat tender little snakes. He and Hu Qingguang couldn't get enough from eating small snakes. He also needed to hunt some larger prey.

"Ye, should we separate the different colors?" Hu Qing asked, holding up the animal skin bag.

"Let's pick them like this for now, and we'll divide them when we get back."

"Okay, yes, we all like the taste of red fruit."

As the two were talking, someone to Hu Qing's left spoke up: "Um, could you pick some for me?"

Ye peeked out from Hu Qing's right side and exclaimed, "Oh, a familiar face! It's that human female who argued with Hu Hua by the river last time!"

"On what grounds?" Ye asked calmly.

Hu Qing very sensibly moved to the other side, letting his female block him; that human female was a bit strange.

"I'm physically weak, I can't pick many."

"What does this have to do with us?"

"Isn't it males' duty to take care of females?"

"Shouldn't you be looking for your own males? You have five males." Ye didn't really understand what she was trying to do. Did she want to take Tiger Green in? What was she doing before?

"They, they all don't like this taste, so I did it myself."

That pause and tone of voice... Could she be a time-traveler? Ye Ke doesn't have the habit of reminiscing with people from other worlds.

"Oh, then you can pick them slowly." After saying that, she pulled Hu Qing and walked to a place a little further away.

Meixiang gritted her teeth. She was a transmigrator, but in her original world, this situation was called possession. She was originally a maid in the backyard of a prefect, a servant born into the household, who had hardly ever left the house. After being drowned in a pig cage, she woke up in a strange body the moment she opened her eyes. When she was little, she heard old nannies tell stories of spirits and monsters. People who possess other people's bodies like this are supposed to be burned to death. She definitely didn't want to die.

She cautiously explored this world, afraid of giving herself away, and hardly uttered a word. When she arrived, the shaman of the original tribe had already died, leaving no legacy. A tribe without a shaman cannot last long, and within a few days, the original tribe scattered. Females are a rare resource in this world, offering a wider range of choices.

Other females didn't want to come to the Tiger Clan, a tribe whose prototypes were ferocious beasts. They said that the Tiger Clan beastmen were fierce and that mating would be very difficult. Mei Xiang was delighted. She wasn't afraid and wanted to try it. She liked that kind of thing. It turned out that she was drowned in a pig cage because she had seduced the servants and then set her sights on the young master of the mansion.

In order to avoid being noticed by her original tribe members, she directly broke off her contract with the original owner's partner and came to the Tiger Tribe alone. She successively took in five partners, and her nightlife made her reluctant to leave.

But this couldn't mask the inconvenience of life. Every day was just about grilling meat. As a maid in a grand mansion, she was lazy and ignorant of the five grains, unable to even improve her own meals. Her methods, which were so effective in the mansion, were useless against the beastmen here. They couldn't understand her, and the females were even more rude, resorting to violence at the slightest provocation. In particular, her habit of seducing other men had no room for development here. The males she was paired with had a strong sense of boundaries, and if a female noticed anything amiss, she would immediately come and beat her up. Her own partner had become much colder towards her because of this.

Until that strange female appeared, she accepted the mutilated Tiger Green and brought something new. She wanted to get close to the female and see if she was also a reincarnation, but due to her habitual tendencies, she first set her sights on Tiger Green.

Meixiang, undeterred, approached: "Do you know what 'reincarnation' means?"

Hu Qing didn't react. Ye's subordinate paused slightly and calmly asked, "Are you talking to me?"

She didn't actually understand that sentence because it wasn't the language of the primitive beast world, nor was it any language she had ever heard before.

Meixiang whispered those four words again in the language of the beast world, and then looked at her earnestly.
