36: Chapter 36 I've been a dog for so long

"So, am I the only idiot in the entire Wolf Tribe?"

The surrounding beastmen couldn't help but burst into laughter upon hearing Lang Chi say this.

Only Lang Mo smiled faintly without saying a word.

He had never been stupid.

It was just that because of his low status, and his desire to be friends with them,

he was willing to be the one with the least opinion.

---

"Do you know him?" Lang Lie asked after returning to the cave.

Tang Ruan hurriedly waved her hands, fearing he would misunderstand.

"I just have an impression that I might know someone from the Red Fox Tribe."

Lang Lie paced back and forth for a few steps.

Tang Ruan's Beast Form was still unknown to this day; could she be from the Red Fox Tribe?

"If you remember that you are from the Red Fox Tribe, I can let him stay."

"No, no, no!" Tang Ruan said anxiously, "I haven't remembered anything."

To her, the Marmot Tribe was her maiden home, and the Wolf Tribe was her current home.

Everything else had nothing to do with her.

She just wanted to live a good life here with Lang Lie.

She didn't care about any past events.

"Hmm," Lang Lie still wasn't reassured, "But if you remember anything, you must tell me."

"Okay."

Lang Lie took a piece of snake meat out of his space, "How about we roast this for dinner tonight?"

Tang Ruan saw the neatly cut snake meat, still with the snake skin attached.

Suddenly, she leaned against the wall and started retching.

"What's wrong?" Lang Lie asked, supporting her worriedly.

"It's nothing, maybe I've eaten too much meat lately."

In order to use up the Grass Bamboo Rats, she had been eating them for all three meals a day, she was really trying hard.

She wanted to release them back into the forest, but couldn't release them all, fearing it would disrupt the ecosystem.

"I'm going out for a walk to pick some wild fruits to eat," Tang Ruan said.

"Okay, I'll go with you."

Lang Lie accompanied Tang Ruan into the forest.

They happened to run into a few female beasts who were chatting while gathering.

"Have you heard? Recently, beastmen corpses keep appearing in the stream. The cubs thought they were prey and carried them back!"

"I heard. The Witch Doctor discovered it first. However, that Marmot Tribe member is so naive, she didn't seem to notice—"

The female beast's voice came to an abrupt halt.

She stared wide-eyed at Tang Ruan.

So, that day... was the thing she picked up a human corpse?

Was it a human corpse without eyeballs or skin on its face?

Tang Ruan leaned against a tree and vomited again...

Lang Lie shot an annoyed look at the two female beasts.

The two female beasts: !!!!

Tang Ruan walked around again, but still couldn't find anything she wanted to eat.

Finally, she wandered to her "breeding" center.

There were already four or five kinds of small animals being raised here, all of which could breed stably and had short reproductive cycles.

Only her two sheep—they were actually different from the original world! It took more than two years for them to breed!

When would she ever be able to eat lamb skewers!!!

"Gurgle..." Thinking of lamb skewers, Tang Ruan's stomach grumbled uncontrollably.

Lang Lie: "Hungry?"

"Not hungry."

Lang Lie pointed at her stomach, "It says it's hungry."

Tang Ruan: Even if it's hungry, no. Those were the sheep she had raised since they were small; unless they had an accident, she would absolutely not eat them!

She stared at the two sheep with mouth-watering desire, as if the scent of cumin was filling the air.

"Want to eat lamb?" Lang Lie asked.

Tang Ruan: ... Was it that obvious?

"You are not allowed to kill my sheep!" Tang Ruan warned seriously, "These are my babies!"

In the future, the lamb meat and sheep milk would all depend on these two!

Lang Lie: "Aren't I your baby?"

Tang Ruan: ... When did he learn to talk like that?

"Anyway, if one goes missing, I'm holding you accountable!"

"Mistress..." Lang Lie put his hands on his hips, looking helpless, "I'm not the one who wants to eat them."

Tang Ruan: ...

Although Lang Lie said that, the next day, he still let her eat lamb.

Lang Lie placed a dead black goat in front of Tang Ruan.

"Where did you hunt this? Aren't there no more sheep in the forest?"

Thinking that he might have left the valley to hunt for her, Tang Ruan was terribly worried.

"If you look for them, there will always be some," Lang Lie smiled.

Fearing she wouldn't believe him, he opened his space.

"There is one more thing to give you."

As a beam of blue light hit the ground, a light, fluffy little hen landed with a cluck.

Tang Ruan looked at it for a long time before recognizing it— "This is the chicken I raised!"

She rushed over and picked it up. "You are truly amazing! You survived for so long and didn't die!"

She stroked the little hen's feathers and looked up happily, seeing Lang Lie looking at her with an expectant expression.

"Of course, the most amazing one in the whole world is still my Beast Husband. In just one morning, you helped me find the only black goat in the entire Dongdong Valley!"

Lang Lie smiled indulgently.

In fact, he hadn't found it in just one morning. He had searched for a whole night and one morning.

It was just that the Mistress had been very sleepy lately and hadn't noticed him going out.

Lang Lie cut off a large piece of lamb for Tang Ruan to eat slowly.

He deboned the rest of the meat.

He handed the meat and bones to Lang Chi.

Lang Chi, having learned well from Tang Ruan, cooked a pot of lamb stew with potatoes.

Everyone hadn't eaten together in a long time.

Plus, they had been eating mostly snake meat and pork recently, so they all ate with great gusto.

"How are these potatoes even better than the meat!"

"I haven't eaten potatoes in many days, I actually missed them a bit."

Only Lang Yue tossed and turned the few pieces of lamb in her bowl.

"Other people's Mistresss get to eat meat, but I can only eat the bones she left behind."

"It's not just bones, it's the meat that Boss trimmed off the bones. The meat next to the bone is the tastiest, try it."

Lang Mo took a sip of soup and picked the meat from his own bowl into Lang Yue's bowl.

Lang Yue took a deep breath.

"I can endure these hard days, but the cub in my belly can't. I want to eat roasted lamb leg!

If you can't hunt one tomorrow, you don't need to come back!"

She put down her bowl and walked out.

Lang Chi held up his spoon, looking at Lang Mo with sympathy.

"Why bother? Haven't you been bullied by her enough since you were little?"

Lang Mo smiled, "You don't understand..."

"I don't understand?" Lang Chi gestured excitedly.

"I've been bullied by her since I was little—"

"Lang Chi!" Lang Lie shouted, "If you're done eating, go take some food to Hu Mo."

"Oh!" Lang Chi pursed his lips; Lang Mo was still the stupider one!

---

Lang Chi threw a piece of stinking snake meat into the small cave.

"Eat up! If you don't eat it, I'm taking it away! We can't even feed ourselves... and we still have to raise you..."

Lang Chi mimicked the words Lang Lie had told him to say.

In the cave, Hu Mo curled up in the corner.

He muttered to himself like a madman: "Don't come over... don't come over... don't eat me!!! Ahhhhh!!!"

He lunged at Lang Chi suddenly.

Lang Chi quickly stepped back.

The cave entrance was only big enough for Hu Mo to stick out one arm.

He waved his arm desperately, "I beg you, let me go back! This place is too scary! Those monsters all want to eat me! They are right above my head, hovering around every single day..."

Lang Chi smiled triumphantly.

"Wanting to survive in Dongdong Valley isn't as simple as you think. For a fragile species like yours, even if you come here, you're just an extra meal for the monsters."

As Lang Chi said this, he shoved Hu Mo back into the cave.

Hu Mo landed on his butt on the ground.

Listening to the footsteps outside the cave gradually fade away, he stood up from the ground again and brushed the dirt off his body.

He sneered, looking in the direction where Lang Chi had disappeared.

Monsters were scary indeed, but compared to the dirty and terrifying methods of the Fox Tribe, what did they count for?

He picked up the piece of rotten meat with two fingers.

With a flick of his hand, he threw it out through the hole in the top.

A giant monster that looked like a bat flew by and caught the piece of meat.

Suddenly, his expression turned stern.

He sat back down in his original position.

"Hu Mo, my little baby, I've come to see you..."
