Chapter 295 Shamelessly Stepping In
Just as the orcs in the Eastern Tribe were all picking up their large bowls and gulping down a big bowl of steaming, spicy, and pungent ginger soup, before they could even catch their breath, another orc rushed over to report that a group of orcs from the Hyena Tribe had come to visit at the entrance of the valley.
Sen, sitting next to the head of the table, snorted coldly upon hearing the news, a hint of disdain and mockery on his face: "Hmph, what visit? They're just using this as a pretext to ask for something!"
He was already fully aware of the hyenas' behavior.
Upon hearing this, Zhi quickly recalled the scene of the torrential rain and his understanding of the hyena tribe's insatiable greed. He instantly understood the true purpose of these uninvited guests—they had indeed come to ask for that incomparably precious medicine again.
"Chief, this medicine is far too precious and rare, and it is not easy to obtain. In my opinion, unless absolutely necessary, we should try not to give it to other tribes."
Zhi frowned as he spoke, knowing full well the value of this medicine and worried that the tribe would have difficulty protecting this treasure, especially when it attracted the covetous eyes of many other forces.
Known for his wisdom and strategy, he now demonstrates extraordinary insight and foresight.
He looked at Ruan Mianmian, who was regarded as a goddess, with concern in his eyes.
Because he knew perfectly well that this mysterious and powerful elixir was so out of place on the entire orc continent, and that once exposed, it would inevitably cause countless disputes and troubles.
But can their small Eastern tribe withstand the overwhelming pressure and protect the goddess?
After listening quietly to Zhi's words, Ruan Mianmian slowly glanced at everyone present, then nodded gently in agreement, saying, "Zhi is right. We can't rely entirely on the medicines I currently have. After all, my medicine supply isn't inexhaustible, and I might run out one day. Therefore, we must find ways to discover more herbal resources so that our own people can also acquire some self-rescue capabilities. Only in this way can we ensure that we are not helpless when facing various difficulties."
After hearing Ruan Mianmian's words, Zhi Hesen pondered to himself.
They realized that achieving this goal would be no easy task, but they also understood that it was the only way to ensure the long-term development of the tribe.
The two exchanged a glance, a resolute look in their eyes, as if silently making a vow: no matter how great the difficulties, they would lead their people to forge their own path.
Since the hyenas have come to visit, there's no reason to turn them away.
So he went to the mouth of the valley and brought the person in.
Seeing that it wasn't Yong who came out, Mao asked with some confusion, "Isn't Yong here? Why isn't it him who came out?"
Jin looked at him somewhat displeased, "Even if Yong is no longer the Wolf King, he still has a lot to do in the tribe!"
The meaning was clear enough for the hyena tribe to understand that they could receive any other member of their tribe, and that their hyena clan wasn't important enough for Yong to come and pick them up.
Mao smiled awkwardly and followed them into the tribe.
The tribespeople curiously observed the hyena-tribe beastmen, but did not make any further moves.
Upon arriving at the house where the host was staying, he offered a simple welcome and asked, "May I ask what brings you here today?"
Mao cleared his throat and said, "It's because most of the beastmen in the Rainstorm Clan are sick, and we've run out of herbs, so we had no choice but to come here for help. Of course, we also came after hearing that the Lion Clan had come for help."
Mao's last sentence meant that the lions came first, and we followed.
Upon hearing the hyena leader's words, Jin couldn't help but think to himself: "Who doesn't know the character of your hyena clan? If you're here to ask for help, you should have the attitude of asking for help. What kind of thing is it to go against the lion clan like this!"
Then he smiled and said, "The Lion Clan has indeed come, but the matter of the herbs is of great importance and I cannot make a decision. Why don't you wait a moment and invite our Great Shaman to come?"
Mao nodded, "Then I'll trouble you to invite the great shaman out."
He turned and left the house, then walked quickly into the cave.
At this moment, Zhizheng and Ruan Mianmian are discussing the issue of medicinal herbs inside the cave. The lion clan has come to ask for help and they can give them a "miracle," but Zhizheng feels that he must act cautiously in the face of the cunning hyenas.
"Chief, could you possibly produce some herbs to reduce fever?"
Zhiwen was very cautious, afraid of causing trouble for his leader.
Ruan Mianmian was originally thinking about what kind of fever reducer she could use in the system, but when she heard Zhi say that, she quickly slapped her forehead.
"I was so confused, I never expected this to happen."
After speaking, she hurriedly entered the system to search for antipyretic herbs.
However, Mori Kazutoshi saw her actions as his goddess communicating with the divine realm.
After finding Bupleurum chinense online, she bought a large bundle without hesitation.
Mori Kazuchi saw the leader wave his hand in the air, and a large pile of herbs immediately appeared in his hand.
Don't ask how those orcs knew it was an herb; it's probably just an innate intuition. It subconsciously tells them which plant can cure them if they get sick.
Ruan Mianmian handed Bupleurum to Zhihou and said, "Zhihou, this herb is called Bupleurum. It has the effect of dispersing and reducing fever. To put it simply, it is used to treat fever."
Zhi excitedly presented the herb with both hands. The leader was training him; he must remember the effects of this herb.
At this moment, Jin came over and told them about the hyena clan coming to ask for medicinal herbs.
After a moment's thought, Zhi said, "The hyena tribe is always cunning, but considering they are all beastmen, the sick are innocent. However, our medicinal herbs are not plentiful, and we can only offer a portion." Jin nodded in understanding.
The great shaman then returned to his house.
When Mao saw the great shaman, his eyes lit up, and he hurriedly went forward to explain the seriousness of the illness.
Zhi listened expressionlessly, then slowly said, "We can give you some herbs, but you must exchange them for something of equal value, and if you have any surplus herbs in the future, you must return them to us double."
Mao looked troubled upon hearing this, wondering if Lie would have the same conditions.
But thinking of his sick clansmen, he gritted his teeth and agreed.
The high shaman then ordered his men to bring the herbs to the hyena tribe, and Mao left with the herbs, profusely thanking them.
As I watched them leave, I hoped they would truly keep their promise.
