Chapter 4 The Father Beast Seems to Be Dying
Food was scarce, and witchcraft medicine was extremely expensive.

Fox Abandoned wondered if his father beast was about to die.

"Cough cough cough..." Fox White couldn't help but cough incessantly.

"Father, where do you feel unwell?"

"Aqi, don't worry, Father Beast is fine. I'm just a little tired." With that, Fox White drifted off to sleep.

Fox Abandoned his eyes reddened with heartache. He bit his lip, grabbed the last animal skin in the house, and ran quickly toward the witch doctor.

In the Beast World, witch doctors are extremely rare, and only large tribes have them.

Stone Village, as an ancient tribe, has its own shaman.

The witch doctor was an elderly male fox-beastman named Fox-You.

When Hu Qi arrived, the witch doctor Hu You was spreading out medicinal herbs to dry.

The little white fox cub was very anxious: "Witch Doctor, my father beast is getting sicker. His head is burning hot, and he looks like he's about to die. Please help me save him. I can't live without my father beast! We still have a piece of animal skin at home!"

Fox Abandoned brought out the last intact animal hide in the house. "This hide is intact, thick and soft. It's the last animal hide we have. Please! Please save my father!"

Fox looked down at him and said earnestly, "Fox Abandoned, I went to see him with you yesterday. Your father has had a high fever for five days, and I'm afraid he can't be saved. Moreover, even if I wanted to save him, I don't have enough medicinal herbs."

The medicinal herbs in Hu You's hand were also picked by himself, one by one, from the mountain. The tribe consumed a lot of medicinal herbs, and he couldn't pick them all.

"No medicine? We can't live without medicine!" Fox Abandoned cried anxiously. "Please don't abandon my father beast! I really can't live without him!"

"Little guy." Fox sighed. "It's not that I don't want to save him, it's just that it's really impossible."

Fox Abandoned her tears, but stood up bravely again. "Then can you tell me what kind of witchcraft medicine it is? I'll go to the mountains to pick it myself!"

Fox looked at him in surprise: "Little brat, do you know what it means for a little beastman to step into the forest?"

Fox Abandoned was only five years old. A five-year-old child entering the forest is meant to feed the wild animals.

Fox Abandoned bit her lower lip, her eyes welling up with tears. "I know, but Father Beast is my only family. I can't let Father Beast die!"

Fox was finally moved by the sincerity of the child: "Alright, I'll tell you what kind of medicinal herbs they are. But you must know that your father's health has always been poor, and he has been running a high fever for five days now. If we can't find the herbs before tonight, your father may have to go to see the Beast God."

Fox Abandoned knelt on the ground, kowtowing repeatedly, "No, no, I will definitely find the medicinal herbs!"

Looking in the direction the little fox had left, Hu You couldn't help but say, "How pitiful. Such a fine fox, Hu Bai, was ruined by a wicked female. His life is so miserable... and that little cub has to run around for him, so pitiful..."

……

Over there, Nan Zhisui was still feeding the little snake beastman with ham sausages.

The small, light blue snake poked out its slippery head and ate the small pieces of sausage she fed it.

Wow, this is delicious!
Eat quickly, slurp!

Nan Zhisui looked at the little girl, whose face was flushed.

Wow! So cute!
It's so wonderful to feed these little cuties!

After feeding him a small piece of ham, Nan Zhisui said, "Little snake, it's getting dark. The forest is most dangerous at night. We need to find a tribe to stay in."

Snake Yang nodded: "Hiss hiss hiss hiss hiss." Pretty sister, I know there's a fox tribe nearby, but it's a bit far.

Nan Zhisui asked, guessing, "You mean, you know there's a tribe nearby?"

The little blue snake continued to nod.

Nan Zhisui then asked, "Can we get there tonight?"

The little blue snake shook its head.

"Hiss." No, it's too late to go back now. "Then let's try to spend the night in the forest."

Nan Zhisui had a lot of experience in the wild with the system before, so she adapted very well.

She and the little blue snake searched for firewood together.

Although the little blue snake didn't understand what Nan Zhisui wanted to do, it did whatever the pretty older sister told it to do.

Whenever the little snake came over carrying a piece of wood, the pretty lady would pat his head and praise him.

Wow! How wonderful!

Nan Zhisui piled up a bunch of matches, then lit the fire with a lighter.

Upon seeing the burning flames, She Yang quickly hid behind a nearby rock, nervously avoiding any approach.

Nan Zhisui couldn't help but chuckle and said, "Little Spicy Strip, you're such a scaredy-cat! Look how frightened you are."

"Hiss hiss hiss..." Pretty sister, it's dangerous over there, come quick.

"It's just fire, what's there to be afraid of?" Nan Zhisui picked up the little snake and teased it. "Sister will teach you how to use fire."

The closer he got to the fire, the more frightened the little snake became. He sneaked behind Nan Zhisui and secretly examined the small flame in front of him.

Nan Zhisui set up an iron pot over the fire, took out seasonings from his spatial storage, took out a frozen chicken, and began to cook chicken soup.

Nan Zhisui loves to eat, but before, she was penniless in the Beast World, without even a single seasoning. Salt was a rare commodity, and she lived a very hard life.

Now, she can do whatever she wants with the 200 cubic meters of supplies!
……

The sky was completely dark.

The little white fox-orc, clutching several medicinal herbs, ran away in a panic.

Just now, he searched while sniffing the scent of the witchcraft medicine, and finally found it!

He gathered the witch's medicine, but it angered a pack of wolves!

He had to transform into a little fox and run frantically.

A pack of hungry wolves, who hadn't eaten for days, were chasing after him.

Help! Help! Help!

The little fox tripped and fell, injuring his knee. He whimpered twice, but still refused to give up the herbs in his hand. He limped away, clutching the herbs.

Nan Zhisui's chicken soup pot was ready, and she was about to ladle it out to eat when she heard the howling of wolves not far away.

She Yang immediately raised his head and listened carefully to the sounds of the wolf pack. He also heard Hu Qi's voice among the wolf pack's sounds.

He sniffed carefully, and it seemed to be the scent of Hu Qi, the scent of Hu Qi!

But isn't Fox Abandoned a fox cub from Stone Village?
How did he end up in the forest?
There seemed to be no other adult orcs around him!
Snake Yang was frantic; he hissed and flicked his tongue at Nan Zhisui.

What should we do? The pretty older sister is just a little female, and he's just a little cub.

Fox Abandon is just a little cub.

What should he do?!
He rolled up the hem of Nan Zhisui's nightgown and pulled it toward the tree.

Pretty sister, wolves can't climb trees, you should hide in a tree first! Fox Abandoned is my friend, I must save Fox Abandoned!

To everyone's surprise, Nan Zhisui scooped up the little snake in one go, and then climbed up the tree with the snake in her arms, looking down from above.

Under the bright moonlight, Nan Zhisui saw a pack of wolves chasing a small white fox that looked very young. The little white fox had a leg injury and was on the verge of death.
