Orc Girl's Tribal Daily Life

Chapter 13 Growing Up a Little Slower

Yao is Jiang Luoluo's biological father, who died in a wild animal attack more than ten days ago.

Although Jiang Luoluo was not yet clear about the specific causes and consequences of the beast attack, she learned about it from the snippets of conversation between the young shaman, the chieftain Jing, and the boy Ge.

Jiang Luoluo also pieced together a bit of what happened – the boy Ge came into contact with something, and that thing was the main cause of the wild animal attack.

Therefore, young Ge always felt that he was the reason for the deaths of those people in his clan. He felt guilty towards Jiang Luoluo, the only survivor, and even took the initiative to adopt Jiang Luoluo before he was an adult, just to make up for his mistakes.

It was because of his guilt that he was so accommodating to Jiang Luoluo, never refusing her whatever she wanted to do.

However, from the tone of Chief Jing and the young shaman, it was clear that they did not blame the young man Ge. In their eyes, even if it wasn't the young man Ge, other tribesmen would have come into contact with that thing—as long as the tribe needed that thing, the wild animal attack would definitely happen.

Does the tribe need it? Yes, even though so many tribesmen died because of it, neither the chief Jing nor the young shaman showed any remorse.

Therefore, it was indeed like a natural disaster, something that was bound to happen. At most, it was just that the tribe was not prepared enough, which led to the loss of so many tribesmen's lives.

That's it.

Young Ge saw the talent that Jiang Luoluo displayed, which reminded him of Yao, who died in a wild beast attack. Yao was an orc warrior with exceptional talent in stone tools, and it was because of this ability that he was able to pursue a powerful orc warrior like Ying.

Memories flooded young Ge's mind in an instant, and even He, who was originally full of excitement, fell silent after hearing these words.

Yao wasn't the best stonemason in the tribe, because he preferred making small tools rather than weapons, and would always give eagles strange little things with a smile.

You should know that Eagle is the captain of the second hunting team and one of the most powerful orc warriors in the tribe. Her acceptance of Yao's courtship shocked a lot of people in the tribe.

Seeing that the two of them were lost in sad memories, Jiang Luoluo quickly reached out and pulled on the arm of the young man, pulling him back from the guilt of his memories.

Jiang Luoluo didn't feel she had the right to forgive anything on behalf of the original Luo—if the young Ge had really done something wrong.

Even the leader Jing and the young shaman didn't think that the young man Ge had really done anything wrong, so Jiang Luoluo, who knew nothing about it, was even less qualified to judge the young man Ge.

Seeing the cub's worry and concern, the young man forced a smile, "Don't worry, Luo, I'm fine..."

He also came to his senses, his previous enthusiasm gone, but he was not prepared to give up his idea. He patted the young man Ge on the shoulder with his one arm, "Don't think too much, Ge. No one blames you. Luo is talented, and we can't waste her talent. You're going to participate in the hunt again the day after tomorrow, so I'll take care of Luo."

“I understand, Brown.” The young man, Ge, paused for a moment, then nodded. “Thank you.”

On the way back, young Ge was very quiet.

Jiang Luoluo felt this wasn't a good situation. Since she couldn't offer words of comfort, she could only find something for young Ge to do to distract him.

When you have things to do, you don't have time to be sad or upset.

As soon as Jiang Luoluo returned to the cave, she noticed a lot of extra things inside... The things were laid out on the ground, making them hard to miss.

There were three different shapes and sizes of fruit. One was the red fruit we ate last night, there were more than ten of them. Another was a fruit that looked a bit like a grape but was several times larger, about the size of a fist, there were only a few of them.

There was also a greenish-blue fruit, about the size of a plum, which was the most numerous, a whole handful of them.

Young Ge's eyes lit up when he saw the cub, and he introduced it to the cub, "This is a red mushroom fruit."

Jiang Luoluo gestured curiously, and it took the young man several tries to guess that she was asking why this red fruit was called the Red Mushroom Fruit.

“Because they grow on a kind of red mushroom,” the boy, Go, replied.

Huh? Jiang Luoluo tried to imagine it, but she couldn't figure out what kind of scene it would be, fruit growing on mushrooms?

"These are water puffs." The boy introduced the fruits that looked like large grapes and demonstrated to Jiang Luoluo how to eat them.

Once you break the skin of the water puff, the flesh inside will flow out like juice. It's sweet and very thirst-quenching. When the people in the tribe go hunting and run out of water, they will look for these water puffs to quench their thirst.

The downside is that these water puffs are not easy to carry and are easily broken, so you have to deal with them on the spot after picking them.

"I picked a lot, but they all broke along the way. Only these few are still intact." Young Ge looked embarrassed.

Jiang Luoluo's eyes widened; she should be the one feeling embarrassed.

"And this, Luo, this is a berry, the children in the tribe love to eat the most." Young Ge handed a berry to Jiang Luoluo.

It has a crisp texture, like a jujube, but without a pit, so you can eat them one by one. It tastes sweet and sour, which is very appetizing.

In addition to these, young Ge also brought back two newly cut trees, which he planned to process and make into new wooden doors when he had some free time.

"Luo, I told Cong about the big wooden bowl you wanted, and Cong said we can go pick it up in a few days." Young Ge didn't forget to tell Jiang Luoluo about the two wooden basins she wanted.

Hmm... Although it seems that young Ge misunderstood it as some kind of extra-large wooden bowl for eating, Jiang Luoluo thinks it's not a big problem. She'll know what it's for when she uses it.

Jiang Luoluo couldn't help but scrutinize the young man, Ge. In just one day, he got up early to take Jiang Luoluo to Little Stone Mountain, had a wooden basin custom-made by a carpenter, went to Big Stone Mountain for training and caught a brood of rabbits along the way, cut down two trees as wide as a person in the afternoon and sent them back to the cave, and then gathered a bunch of fruit...

Wow, just thinking about it makes me feel so tired.

Jiang Luoluo put down her things, walked seriously to the side of the young man Ge, took out his increasingly thick hand, looked at the thick calluses on it, and fell into deep thought.

Mistake. We forgot that the average person in the tribe has superhuman physical abilities.

Even if the work is very tiring and strenuous, or even if you get injured, it won't leave any traces—the recovery speed is too fast, and the wound will fall off directly after it heals without leaving a scar.

The reason why wounds usually leave scars is because the healing is not good, there is residue in the wound, or the scab is picked off by the hand instead of falling off naturally.

But that's not a big problem. Jiang Luoluo looked up and stared intently at the young man, her lips moving silently.

In the silence, young Ge seemed to hear the tender voice of a cub.

She said, "Let's take a break."

No need to rush, there's still a long future ahead, we can grow up slowly, even more slowly.
