Chapter 111 Sharing
As Lin Baiyan watched the Rainbow Phoenix Chicken slowly grow thinner, he once thought that the Rainbow Phoenix Chicken was impossible to raise and even considered giving up and killing it to eat.
Fortunately, the Rainbow Phoenix Chicken finally hatched chicks. Lin Baiyan thought about it for a moment and figured it was probably due to the weather. Spring was approaching, and the Rainbow Phoenix Chicken was slowly regaining its vitality.
Lin Baiyan carefully entered the chicken coop and carried the chicks back. Strangely, the Rainbow Phoenix Chicken did not react at all when it saw Lin Baiyan enter, which was quite different from its reaction when it saw the male beastman.
The chicks weren't afraid of him at all; they even rubbed against his palm gently before huddling together inside and falling asleep.
The epiphyllum mark on Lin Baiyan's wrist flashed by without attracting any attention from its owner.
He didn't notice anything unusual and went straight out of the chicken coop.
Everyone looked at the tiny, mouse-like baby rainbow pheasant in Lin Baiyan's palm. Yang Ye asked with some concern, "Priest, isn't the baby rainbow pheasant with its mother?"
Lin Baiyan explained, "The weather is still too cold."
“Chicks can easily freeze to death outside. I’ll take them back and raise them for a few days until they grow their feathers before sending them back.”
Everyone nodded, seemingly understanding but not quite.
They also breathed a sigh of relief. The fact that the Rainbow Phoenix Chicken could reproduce in the tribe proved that they could raise it, and now their tribe had another food reserve.
Lin Baiyan praised the cubs with a smile, "The little cubs did a great job taking care of the Rainbow Phoenix Chicken. The priest told Hu Qing and the others that he would roast sweet potato mash for you!"
Alas!
The orc cubs cheered happily; the priest had made them sweet potato puree before.
Mix sweet potatoes and egg whites together, brush on a layer of egg yolk, and then bake in a traditional earthen oven. The resulting sweet potato puree is incredibly fragrant and delicious, and the little ones lick the bowl clean.
The dwarf cubs nearby looked at their companions with envy; this priest brother was so kind to them…
Lin Baiyan had already noticed the little expressions on the faces of the dwarf cubs beside him, but he didn't say anything and waited quietly for something.
Sure enough, Xia the kitten and Lang Yu looked very conflicted and hesitated, "Priest brother, can I share a little bit of the sweet potato puree with Lynx?"
Wolf Rain and its cubs nodded their little heads incessantly.
They knew that the extra food given to them was shared by the tribe and was a reward for them, but the cubs felt a little guilty seeing their little friends with nothing to eat.
Lin Baiyan smiled and bent down to pat each of the cubs' heads. "Of course, the food has been distributed to you. How you deal with it is up to you."
“Our little ones are amazing, remember to share this with your friends.”
It's only because life in their tribe has improved. A few months ago, when there was nothing to eat, they had no way to share with others.
Hearing their favorite priest brother's praise, the little cubs puffed out their little chests!
They are the most obedient and best cubs.
The beastmen watched the interaction between the priest and the cubs with smiles on their faces.
Orcs are not good at raising cubs. They usually just provide food and shelter, protect the cubs when they are in danger, and beat them if they disobey.
When it comes to educating cubs, the priest is more skilled. The cubs, who are usually very naughty, become very obedient under Lin Baiyan's care, behaving well without needing to be hit.
Lin Baiyan took the chicks back to his cave and made them a small home under the window using torn animal hides and dry grass.
The chicks sniffed around here and there, then lay down on the animal skin and fell asleep peacefully.
Lin Baiyan squatted down to observe them. He thought the chicks would be scared, but they didn't react at all.
"He seems pretty carefree," Lin Baiyan muttered a small complaint.
He prepared some sweet potato crumbs for the chicks, filled a basin with water, and then went out to continue with his own business.
He had previously thought that houses made of cement looked nice and gray, so he wondered if he could try making putty.
This time, however, he wasn't so lucky. He vaguely remembered that putty was made by mixing talcum powder, white glue, and some other stuff together.
However, he couldn't find any stones similar to talc nearby, so he tried to find some brittle stones to use as substitutes, but white glue was difficult to find.
He has experimented several times, and the viscosity is not good in large quantities, while it is difficult to obtain good viscosity.
Lin Baiyan was so worried he was going bald.
Fortunately, there was the good news that the colorful phoenix pheasant was hatching chicks, which prevented him from feeling too frustrated.
They built their houses much faster than Lin Baiyan had expected; in just one month, they had actually built ten houses!
Lin Baiyan was utterly dumbfounded. He had underestimated the power of the orcs. Since they figured out the process, the orcs built houses as fast as they could with a rocket.
The newly built house needs to be ventilated to prevent it from smelling, so they didn't move in right away.
Lin Baiyan estimated that at this rate, they would all be able to move into their new houses in no time!
When Lang Cang returned with Bao Lu and Xi Zhao, Lin Baiyan was still arguing with Ni Zi.
He moved closer to the young man, saying nothing, but simply watching his actions.
After Lin Baiyan sighed again, he finally spoke up: "If you can't make it, then don't. This house is already very good."
Lang Cang wasn't trying to comfort Lin Baiyan. In his eyes, the houses they built were sturdy and beautiful, far superior to the earthen houses of other tribes.
Lin Baiyan was startled by the sudden sound from the side. He subconsciously patted his chest. People can be scared to death by being startled!
A hint of annoyance flashed in Lang Cang's eyes. He had forgotten that Lin Baiyan was timid and had been frightened into turning into her beast form earlier.
Lin Baiyan was unaware of what he was thinking, otherwise she would have definitely retorted loudly to Lang Cang.
He was suddenly placed in an unfamiliar environment where he knew nothing. Anyone would be scared in that situation!
Also, he only has mild social anxiety! Just a little bit!
It's not cowardice!!!
Back in the company, he was the youngest chief engineer; all he had to do was give orders. Unlike in the Orc Continent, where you had to give encouragement and do some ideological work before you could even speak to someone.
Of course, Lin Baiyan doesn't have mind-reading abilities now, so he doesn't know what Lang Cang is thinking.
He looked up and glared slightly at the tall man in front of him. Lang Cang seemed to have grown taller again; Lin Baiyan now had to look up to see him.
"What's wrong?" Lang Cang asked, puzzled.
Lin Baiyan narrowed his eyes. "Have you grown taller again?" The animal skin clothes he was wearing were much too small.
"Let me make you a new animal skin coat."
Lang Cang awkwardly pulled his wrist back. "It's okay, I can wear it for a long time."
He looked intently at the person in front of him and slowly said, "The hunting season is about to begin."
