Pampered Beast: Frail Beauty with Many Children Brings Blessings

Chapter 11 An Unexpected Joy

Without asking any questions, Zhile followed Sishuo's instructions, picked up some snails that looked like walnuts from the stream, threw them into the shrimp trap, and then placed the shrimp trap where the stream flowed into the Shenmu River.

Si Shuo completed two and a half hours of daily gathering tasks today and earned sixty-three beast coins.

She bought a bottle of amino acid shampoo to nourish her hair and a bottle of peach-scented body wash with a light and moisturizing scent, successfully balancing her income and expenses!

After a good, refreshing shower, she felt completely refreshed.

When Si Shuo came out dressed, Zhi Le pulled him into his arms. The little female smelled wonderful, and he couldn't resist hugging her and nibbling at her for a while.

If he weren't worried about her catching a cold, he would have wanted even more!

Zhile then stuffed a grilled fish into Si Shuo's hand, whose face was flushed, and used animal hide to wipe her hair. He asked about the gathering and told her about leading people to dig traps to catch piglets with long tusks.

They both really enjoy sharing with each other.

After Si Shuo finished eating the two fish, the two packed up their things and went to collect the shrimp traps.

In less than an hour, the once empty shrimp traps were now teeming with shrimp and crabs, as well as some water snakes and fish!

Si Shuo happily circled around Zhi Lezhi, his mind already filled with various recipes for cooking river delicacies, vividly embodying the term "greedy cat."

He swallowed hard, shook his head with amusement, and pulled out the heavy shrimp trap.

He poured the river fish onto the leaves, and before the fish could crawl out, Si Shuo put them into his spatial storage.

There were more than 40 kilograms of fresh river seafood in one shrimp trap!

Not only that, the system also notified me that twenty beast coins had been credited to my account. In other words, the time spent setting the shrimp trap was also a form of harvesting, which was a pleasant surprise.

The tusked boars have tough skin covered by a layer of stiff bristles, making them largely impervious to ordinary attacks. They are incredibly strong, and their long tusks can easily pierce the bodies of orcs. They always travel in packs, are particularly vengeful, and will relentlessly pursue and kill any enemy that harms them.

Orcs generally avoid groups of long-tusked boars!

Zhile and his six companions dispersed the pig herd, hunted down three adult pigs weighing over 500 kilograms each, and captured seven piglets alive.

Zhile received 130 kilograms of pork, as well as a piglet.

That night, everyone was talking about this, and quite a few males came over wanting to learn some experience.

Cui Tai and Ke Biao laughed and cursed as they dispersed the crowd. Was this kind of skill something to be publicized? Besides, they were counting on this method to continue catching piglets in the coming days.

No one was annoyed. They enthusiastically held up torches to see the piglets, and laughed heartily as they listened to the piglets squealing in fright.

Back in the cave, Zhile left one-tenth of the pork, rubbed it with salt, and hung it outside. He put the rest of the pork into his spatial storage.

"Zhi Le, we have space now, and we can eat fresh meat anytime. You don't need to risk so much to capture piglets alive," Si Shuo said, looking at the abrasions on his body. He took some herbs, crushed them, and applied them to his wounds with heartache.

As she pressed it, the Level 1 aura was activated, and a faint fluorescent light spread outward from her palm.

Zhile clearly felt a gentle energy.

He looked down and his expression changed instantly. He grabbed her wrist and asked urgently in a silent voice, "Little kitten, how do you have superpowers?"

As far as I know, only the Holy Female, who is blessed by the Beast God, possesses a special ability.

Are there any other people who know about this skill of yours?

Si Shuo shook his head, leaned close to his ear and whispered, "No, this is the first time I've used it. I didn't know I had this ability before."

With a complicated expression, Zhile touched her face and pressed his head against hers. "Little kitten, I wish you didn't have any special abilities and weren't so alluring, so I could greedily monopolize you for a while longer."

Si Shuo wrapped her arms around his waist, buried her face in his chest, and listened to his powerful heartbeat, which had become erratic for her. "But Si Shuo also wants to protect Zhile. I have superpowers, which is not necessarily a bad thing. As long as I use them carefully and don't let anyone know, it might even be a way for me to save my life."

Zhile felt a pang of ache in his chest, so he picked her up and carried her into the inner room. "I won't go hunting tomorrow. I'll guard you while you gather the fish. I can help you process the river delicacies and weave some wicker baskets to carry things." He spoke seriously, but his hands were already tasting the appetizer...

Another night of revelry!

Si Shuo can no longer take the matter of sleeping at night seriously.

The variety of plants on the mountain is much richer than that of the shrubs, including wild fruits, fungi, herbs, and spices; Si Shuo discovers a little surprise with almost every step he takes.

Zhile followed her closely, weaving a wicker basket in his hands and filling his animal skin bag with stones. When he encountered wild rabbits or birds passing by, he would throw one at them. He also dug up several nests of bamboo rats!

Si Shuo felt that Zhi Le could take very good care of her by himself.

Two cubic meters of space was not enough, so Si Shuo spent one day collecting the items and the other day performing preliminary processing on the collected items.

For example, it can be used to make dried fruit, jam, jerky, meat floss, fish balls, shrimp balls, crab sticks, seasoning powder, and processed medicinal herbs, etc.

The initial processing fee was five beast coins higher per hour than the collection fee. She was busy but fulfilled, and her work was effective.

Every time Zhile returned from a hunt, she would treat him to reduce his pain and improve his skill proficiency.

When he still had some of his supernatural abilities left, Si Shuo treated the scars on his face and repaired the cracks in his dantian.

Once she had exhausted her supernatural power, Zhile fed her a level six crystal!

After half a month, the scars on Zhile's face had indeed faded somewhat, while the three red beast markings on his neck had become more solid, showing signs of breaking through to level four. Her energy reserves had also doubled, allowing her to sustain treatment for a longer period, reaching a quantity of 50.

Of course, she would ponder the growth-inducing technique in her spare time. The growth-inducing technique had no combat value whatsoever; it only shortened the growth period of plants to a certain extent, and the proficiency level increased very slowly, barely reaching 5, making it particularly useless!

Zhile installed a wooden door in his house, but the door was no match for the orcs, only protecting honest people from treacherous ones.

They've added a lot of things to their home, making it quite full, and the young couple looks like they're living a proper life together.

Soon it was time for the tribe's spring hunt, and Zhile's mouth hadn't stopped all morning:

"Little kitty, the food we've stocked up at home is enough to feed you for a month."

Half of the males in the tribe participate in the spring hunt, leaving half as many as the guards of the gathering teams, and many stray animals are waiting for such an opportunity.

"What do you want? I'll come back and we'll go picking it together. Don't leave the tribe unless absolutely necessary..."

Si Shuo listened attentively, nodding repeatedly, "Okay, I'll listen to you."

Zhile looked at the little female he had been feeding for half a month. Her face had finally gained some flesh, and she was no longer the pitiful, trembling girl she had been at the beginning.

His throat felt tight, and he spoke with difficulty:

"In case anything happens in the tribe, or if I... I don't make it back, little kitty, remember to find yourself a strong beast mate..."

Enraged, Si Shuo pulled down his neck, stood on tiptoe to shut him up, and bit his lip hard. "Zhi Le, you must come back."

You know, I'm different from other females with low fertility.

I am a naturally mutated cat-beastman, and apart from you, no other tribe in the vicinity dares to take me.

Do you want me to go to the female cave or be bullied by wandering orcs?

"Only if you're alive can you protect me. Just consider it showing you care for me, okay?"

By the end, her voice was trembling with sobs, and the pain made Zhile deepen the kiss.

"Okay, I'll definitely come back! I'm tough, the Beast God won't take me."
