Orc Girl's Tribal Daily Life

Chapter 214

Chi was indeed tidying up at home.

It goes without saying how excited Chi was about her first long trip. The matching animal skin backpack that Jiang Luoluo had given her was already packed to the brim, as if she wanted to bring all her belongings with her.

However, the things were packed in a mess, and she was now thinking about what to take out, otherwise she wouldn't be able to put the rest of her things in.

Jiang Luoluo and Mao were utterly shocked as soon as they entered the room.

"Luo, you're here!" Chi was very happy to see Jiang Luoluo and looked up to greet her.

"Is something the matter? Luo, wait a moment, I'll finish tidying up right away."

"Uh, I'm not in a hurry, I just want to bring you something... but this..." Jiang Luoluo hesitated to say it.

This is quite intimidating.

Mao entered the room behind Jiang Luoluo, and Chi greeted him, "Mao, you're here too... Hey, wait a minute, what's going on with you two..."

If it were only Jiang Luoluo with a new hat, Chi would have overlooked it. It's normal for cubs to like new things and have extra items on their bodies.

But if both of them have it, then it's no longer something the cub can just play with on its own.

After much thought, Chi could only think of one thing—I want it too.

Jiang Luoluo didn't hide anything and quickly took out another bunny-ear hat, replying to Chi, "This is a new bunny-ear hat I made! I made it for you, what do you think, isn't it pretty?"

Chi immediately let go of what he was holding, ran over and took the bunny ear hat that Jiang Luoluo handed him, completely ignoring the mess of his backpack falling over and scattering all over the ground behind him, "It looks good!"

Jiang Luoluo couldn't stand it. Chi's personality was rather carefree. She didn't care much about many things and had a relaxed attitude that "no matter what, I can get it back at any time."

In other words, their strength is so great that they don't feel the necessary tension when facing many things.

Even after countless failures, I have absolute confidence that I can succeed.

Seeing Chi trying on the bunny ear hat, Jiang Luoluo went around to help him pack. She had packed Ge's luggage before, so she was quite skilled at it.

Normally, hunting doesn't require carrying much; basically, it only involves weapons, clothing, blankets, necessary herbs, and bitter salt.

It's only recently that jam has become popular, so people have started carrying jam in their backpacks, along with extra clothes and thicker, larger animal skin blankets because of the cold weather.

Of course, everyone is different, and it's normal for some members of the tribe to bring some personal belongings.

For example, Yuan, who would be going on this hunt and was responsible for the experimental telescope and the important task of modifying the telescope, would carry some transparent stones or transparent lenses for experimentation.

The rules would involve carrying a stone bow crafted from source wood and Earth Star Stone shrapnel, and during the hunt, trying out different uses for them and considering whether there were any other possible applications besides dealing with bird creatures.

So it's quite normal that Akane carried some personal items in his backpack, making it too big for the animal hide bag... "Aka!"

Jiang Luoluo exclaimed in surprise.

"What did you put in there?!"

Lifting the animal skin blanket, Jiang Luoluo narrowed her eyes and saw several wooden jars underneath. A faint smell wafted out, which Jiang Luoluo could clearly identify.

"Why did you bring so much fruit wine?!"

If it were just a package the size of a jam jar, Jiang Luoluo would have let it go without bringing one or two.

However... Chi filled almost eight-tenths of his large animal-hide backpack with fruit wine jars, leaving only a short layer of empty space on top.

No wonder Jiang Luoluo couldn't fit anything in Chi's hands when she saw it; the bottom was already full of fruit wine jars, so what was she supposed to do?

Jiang Luoluo was somewhat amused and said that Chi was also a frequent hunter—although he had never participated in large-scale, long-distance hunts in the Taz Forest, he would often go out for three to five days without returning home at the edge of the Taz Forest.

She must know exactly what to bring when hunting, so how could she possibly be in a situation where she couldn't pack her things properly?

It turns out it was because she couldn't bear to part with her little bit of fruit wine!

Red, wearing a rabbit-ear hat, slowly turned around, looked at the angry-looking cub, and gave an awkward smile, "Hahaha..."

"How come you have so much fruit wine again? Did you get it from He again?" Jiang Luoluo frowned. The half-finished, failed fruit wine from He should have all been drunk up by now, so how come there's still so much here?

Could it be that Chi Lian took all the good wine with him?

"The chief gave it to me," Chi replied, a hint of guilt in his voice.

Jiang Luoluo walked up to Chi and looked into his eyes through his glasses. "Don't pretend you can't see clearly, just say it."

"Well, I'm leading a team this time, and the leader told me to bring these fruit wines with me so I can distribute them to the others," Chi Guaiguai replied.

"I didn't steal a drink, really." Chi swallowed hard.

Clearly, Chief Jing handing the fruit wine to Chi was like placing tangerines in a child's bedroom during the New Year.

Given Chi's strength, she should at least be assigned to be one of the captains of several hunting teams if she participates in the hunt. However, Chi has never participated in a hunt before and knows nothing about the routes, so she is not capable of fulfilling the responsibilities of a hunting team captain.

However, it wouldn't be appropriate to make Chi a member of an ordinary hunting team, because Chi is too strong in a tribe where people prove their status with force at the slightest disagreement.

If Chi has a disagreement with the leader of the hunting team during a hunt, he is very likely... or rather, he will not listen to the other party's orders at all.

This isn't a flaw of Chi, but rather how the entire tribe operates; these are the tribe's rules.

So after much deliberation, Chief Jing decided to give Chi a separate team and let Chi lead the team on his own. However, Chi was not completely independent; he would still generally follow another team, but he would be in charge of his own team.

You can treat it as a way to gain experience.

So it wasn't just Chi; the captains of the other teams also received some fruit wine to carry with them on this hunt, probably to test its effectiveness against the cold.

It's not that drinking fruit wine will prevent you from getting cold, but rather that drinking a few sips of fruit wine at a critical moment can quickly warm your body.

The blood of some wild animals has a similar effect, but it has a short shelf life, is prone to spoilage, and its bloody smell can attract other wild animals, making it less convenient and easy to use than fruit wine.

Moreover, the blood of such specific wild animals is not something you can encounter often, so generally speaking, fruit wine is more beneficial.

But Chief Jing should never overlook the fact that Chi is actually a drunkard...
