Quick Travel: Save the poor little villain

There is nothing to pass the time here. In the harsh winter shrouded in darkness, the most suitable thing is reproduction.

Their gestation period only takes four months before they can give birth to a cub, whether the cub is a male or a sub-beast female, it takes the same amount of time.

This means that when the harsh winter ends, new life comes.

For this reason, the extremely scarce pregnancy fruits in each tribe have been prepared long ago, just waiting for the sub-beasts in need to bring their families to collect them.

Pregnancy of sub-animals is much more difficult than that of female animals, and every reproduction is a huge challenge for them.

So in this severe winter, Jinchen's house seems to have no shortage of guests.

In the early morning, Jinchen felt that the indoor temperature was much lower. He was afraid that Bai Mo would catch a cold, so he hurriedly got up and lit a charcoal fire in the stove. After a while, the room was very hot.

Bai Mo also woke up slowly, lying on the plush quilt in a daze.

"Momo, there's another sound outside."

Jinchen lit the grease lamp, listened to the noise outside the door, pursed his lips, and walked towards the bed.

The bed was made big enough that when the harsh winter came, the two of them rarely left the bed except for eating.

"It should be for a dressing change."

Bai Mo was already used to it. He had already tied several bundles of herbs in advance, just waiting for them to take them back and boil out the juice.

"Jinchen, it's me!"

The people outside the gate were obviously freezing and were trembling when they spoke.

The voice was familiar to both of them.

"Dufeng? Why are you here?"

Jinchen opened the door a crack to let him in, and looked up and down.

"Oh, your house is on fire!"

Dufeng rubbed his hands. He had been standing at the door for a while, and a thick layer of snow had fallen on his body.

"I came to Bai Mo to ask for herbal medicine. It is said that it can make the fertilization of sub-animals less difficult!"

Just saying this made him happy. Ever since he separated his family and lived alone with Yu Wu, he realized what a magical life it was. Many of his previous worries were gone.

"Ah! Yu Wu also took pregnancy fruit."

Bai Mo hurriedly got his head out of the quilt, his eyes full of surprise, "Is he uncomfortable?"

"It's okay, I just feel fresh and talk to my stomach all day long."

Dufeng scratched his head and smiled a little silly.

"Brother, give him the last herb. It has the mildest properties and is not bitter when you drink it."

Bai Mo stretched out his finger again and tapped the place behind the stove.

"it is good."

Jinchen found out the herbs, handed them to Dufeng and laughed.

"Why is it that Yu Wu is pregnant and you have gained so much weight?"

"Hey, don't mention it. Xiaowu wants to eat everything since she's pregnant. Fortunately, I stocked up on enough food, but he can't eat much. No, the rest is in my stomach."

Dufeng waved his hand, indicating that this was a sweet burden, "Eating eight meals a day, who can bear this?"

"No more, I have to go back, Xiaowu is still home alone."

Dufeng put the animal skin hat on his head again. Before leaving, Jinchen saw him off and asked casually.

"Has your Bai Mo taken the pregnancy fruit?"

"No."

Jinchen frowned. The clan leader gave him one, but he never paid attention to it.

It was a casual question, but Dufeng didn't take it to heart. He slipped out through the crack in the door and dived into the snow curtain. It was clearly early in the morning, but there was only a thin layer of light.

Looking out, it's all covered with snow. Only the grease lamps sticking out of the cave windows of each house are bright, dim and warm.

Jinchen looked at it for a few times, then carried the meat fan into the room.

There were also the ice candies that Bai Mo was taught to make last night. They were placed on the board outside and were so frozen that they looked crystal clear.

After washing his hands and placing the candies and the specially made bed table, Jinchen huddled under the quilt and hugged Bai Mo.

"Mo Mo, the clan leader actually gave me a pregnancy fruit. What do you think?"

Bai Mo was biting the candy shell with his head lowered. Hearing this, he raised his eyes and looked at Jin Chen, frowned and shook his head.

He nuzzled into his arms again, his tail wrapped around Jinchen Jinchen's waist, and even the animal ears were warm.

"No, let the clan leader give it to the sub-beasts in need."

But as soon as he said this, he thought it was Jinchen who wanted the cub, so he quickly swallowed what was in his mouth and turned to look at him.

"Does my brother want cubs?"

Jinchen's mouth twitched slightly, he had no choice but to let the cub disturb their world.

"No, I'll just ask you what you think."

"Oh, I don't want to," Bai Mo frowned and clasped his fingers on the sheets to come up with an excuse, "I'm not in good health and can't have a baby."

Jin Chen couldn't help but laugh. Now that Bai Mo was raised very well by him, there was no such thing as a bad constitution, but it was just what he wanted.

Then he walked down the slope and coaxed the donkey: "Then I don't want to get pregnant. I'll find a time to send it back to the clan leader."

"it is good!"

Bai Mo agreed very quickly, fed Jinchen a candy, his eyes curled up.

It tasted similar to ice cream. Ever since Jinchen made it for him, Bai Mo couldn't forget the taste.

"Gluttony, this is not for you to finish all at once."

Jin Chen saw that the candies in the wooden bowl were getting less and less, and he hurriedly stopped Bai Mo from continuing to eat.

"I'm tired of eating this, so I'll eat it later after dinner."

Bai Mo knew what he was worried about and showed him his teeth with a grin, "I brush my teeth with charcoal ash every day. They won't rot."

"Then you're not going to eat?" Jin Chen changed his approach, "We're going to have barbecue for lunch today. I remember that Mo Mo also loves it."

Bai Mo fell into silence and touched his stomach.

I've been sitting at home all day without moving. If I finish eating this fruit, I'm afraid I won't be able to eat it at noon.

"Then I won't eat it."

He pushed away the bowl, got out of bed and scooped up hot water from the stove to rinse his mouth. While rinsing, he muttered, "Brother must have done it on purpose."

"Then if Mo Mo has a toothache then, don't cry to me."

Jinchen smiled and said, "Toothache is much more uncomfortable than ordinary illnesses."

Bai Mo spat two more times, feeling that he had rinsed it off before running to bed, shrinking into his arms and shaking his ears.

"Just scare me."

"How dare I scare you, the inheritor of our great beast god's will, the future priest of the tribe?"

Jinchen laughed and rubbed the tip of his nose.

Bai Mo frowned and twisted his body, "It's so awkward. Don't call me priest. It's still early."

Although since that day when he became aware of his will, the priest made it clear that when he grows up in the future, he will abdicate in favor of him.

But Bai Mo always felt that it was still early. He had just formed the contract, so why did he have to take on such a big responsibility.

Bai Mo thought that he could not be as kind as Amu, willing to sacrifice his time and life for the people in the tribe again and again.

Many experiences just told him that some people are not worth the effort.

Whether selfish or irresponsible, Bai Mo refused the order of the beast god's will and was hesitant about the priest's responsibility.

Jinchen knew what he was hesitating about, so he didn't force it. He kissed the corners of his lips to comfort him, "Just let nature take its course."
