Chapter 389 I Am Not the Beast God (23)
The tree hugged the grass and said affectionately, "Grass, don't worry, I will definitely take good care of you from now on."
"Well, I believe you."
Yang: "Now let Master Wu arrange the work, and we can have an extra meal tonight."
Tree was a little surprised to hear this. "Don't we need to hunt anymore?"
He opened his mouth and explained, "No need. The new leader brought back a lot of Bobo Beasts. As long as we take good care of them, we will always have food."
"Ok."
Shu's eyes lit up. "Let's go take a look then."
The shaman is drying meat and fruit; once these are done, they can get through the winter in peace.
He hibernated before, so he didn't need to store food in advance.
But now that she has a partner, she needs to prepare everything for Xiong Bufan so that she won't go hungry.
Xiong Bufan sat in a rocking chair, eating fruit dipped in honey, looking very content.
Cao was still a little afraid of Xiong Bufan, but she still mustered up the courage to walk up and say, "Man, my companion tree is back. Can you ask Master Wu to arrange some work for me?"
Shu stared intently at the jade pendant hanging from Xiong Bufan's waist; this was what Li wanted.
Wu Gang finished wiping his hands and prepared to lead the tree away.
Then, the tree saw that the bear was extraordinary, and it swung its tail, hitting the tree directly in the face.
He hasn't been training for nothing these past few days.
"Smack!" A red mark appeared on the tree's face, and the tree's face darkened. It wanted to tear this hateful snake beast apart and transform into a tiger beast to attack the witch.
Xiong Bufan originally came to watch the show, but she never expected that someone would come to her door to fight, and even attack her most loyal servant.
He pushed the fruit aside and then stood up.
Grass was startled and, fearing that Xiong Bufan would make a move, quickly stepped in front of the tree, saying, "Calm down, tree, calm down."
Chief Man, please calm down.
Song came over and pulled at the tree, telling him to stop fooling around.
The tree reluctantly transformed into human form and roared, "Roar, give me a job!"
Xiong Bufan had never seen such an impolite person before, and he slapped him across the face, which landed exactly on the same spot as Wu Da's slap.
Wu felt an inexplicable sense of pride; he now had a female protecting him, and a smile unconsciously crept onto his face.
The tree wasn't so happy; its domineering face was full of anger, but it didn't make any extra moves.
Cao was unhappy that Xiong Bufan had hit the tree, but he still said, "Man, give the tree some work."
Xiong Bufan nodded and looked at Wu, saying, "Wu, you may go."
"it is good."
The shaman promised that he would assign the tiger beast the dirtiest and most tiring work, so that it would never be able to get close to Xiong Bufan again.
Cao watched their departing figures, still a little worried, but what frightened her the most was Xiong Bufan.
Cao: "Man, I have something to do, I'll head back now."
"Let's go back."
Upon hearing Xiong Bufan's words that he was being allowed to leave, Cao did not hesitate at all and hurriedly ran away.
Xiong Bufan sat back down in his chair, took the fruit back, and continued eating.
With another person working for her, she can do less work.
As Wu walked along the road, he secretly glanced at the tree several times. This tiger beast was supposed to be a little stronger than him, but it looked so ugly, not nearly as handsome as him.
Therefore, it's impossible for Xiong Bufan to be interested in him.
The tree sensed something watching it, and when it turned its head, the gaze disappeared.
He always felt that his idea had been discovered, but since he hadn't told anyone, he figured no one would find out.
After turning left and right, we finally arrived at the place where the tree trunk was being worked. There was another orc there, chubby but not very energetic.
The trees instinctively resisted working here. Before they had to work, they could hunt and eat whatever they wanted, so carefree. Now they could only feed these Bobo beasts, with no freedom at all.
The one who kept working without stopping was Shan. When Shu came over, Shan just glanced at him and went back to work.
Wu was very satisfied with Shan's current state, which saved him from constantly hovering next to Xiong Bufan, which was an eyesore.
Tree: "Witch, can I not do these chores?"
“Okay, or you can go hunting with us. You must bring back eight animals in ten days and then hand them over to the tribe.”
Hunting was out of the question; he hadn't finished his business and couldn't leave the tribe. So, he could only grit his teeth and say, "Fine, but make sure I'm full when I eat."
The shaman patted his chest. "Alright, go and raise the Bobo beasts with me."
"Don't steal any food, or the consequences will be severe."
The tree nodded. "Understood."
"Ah."
Shan didn't know why Man's personality had changed so drastically, why he didn't trust the tribe, and why he was getting close to a snake beast.
But he has now been completely ostracized. When he told Man that the serpent beast was cold-blooded and cunning, Man even scolded him.
The snake beast overheard their conversation and, taking revenge, placed him here, feeding the Bobo beast every day and not allowing him to get close to Man at all.
Now that the tree has arrived, after the shaman left, Shan put down his work and slowly approached.
"Tree, you're here too."
Shu didn't want to talk to Shan, that traitor. Everyone else had left with Zhuang, but Shan was the only one left in the tribe.
Shan felt bored and didn't say anything. After finishing his work, he went to rest on the side.
Tree sat down to play with the grass leaves. He didn't want to work. He missed Yao Li a little, that kind, gentle, and beautiful little female.
Grass was still quite worried about Tree. When Tree went back for dinner that night, Grass specially gave him an extra Bobo Beast Leg, saying, "Tree, eat more."
Tree looked at the meat in the bowl, frowned, and said, "Thank you, Grass."
"You're welcome."
Song and Yang were both happy that Cao had understood and Shu had returned. Now their family had enough to eat and drink, and their lives were slowly getting better.
After dinner, the tree kept the grass company at night. It was still a bit hot lying on the wooden bed in the summer, so the tree stayed far away.
Tree: "Grass, do you know what Man's stone is for?"
Grass looked completely bewildered by the question and mumbled, "What stone?"
Shu explained, "It's the one that hangs around Man's waist. I've been looking at it all day, and I don't know how beautiful it would look if you wore it." She spoke with such sincerity.
I was just about to ask about what happened during the day when the tree took the initiative to explain, and the grass was inexplicably appeased.
Grass hugged the tree, saying, "Those belong to the chief; we can't touch them."
"Damn, I think you're just as good as Man. You'll always be the best in my heart..."
Cao was completely bewildered. Tomorrow she would borrow the stone from Man and see if it looked better than the one Man was wearing.
The two orcs talked for a while longer before slowly falling asleep.
Early in the morning, Man took some pretty stones and fruits to Xiong Bufan's residence.
Her eyes were filled with longing for the beautiful stones, and she forgot how fierce Xiong Bufan had been back then.
Xiong Bufan yawned and lay down on the stone bed. Wu brought meat soup to the bedside and said, "Xiong Bufan, it's time to eat."
"Ah."
Cao couldn't help but feel intimidated by the sight of the usually ruthless snake beast behaving meekly before Xiong Bufan.
It's fear of the Man, not fear of the witch.
