Traveling through time and space to achieve a well-off life with your family

Cheng Mo went out and saw that it was Xiongwu. Xiongwu was all wet, and when he rushed in, he was holding two burning beasts in his hands. Cheng Mo looked behind him, but there was no sign of Banmu.

"Xiongwu? You are back, where is Banmu?" Cheng Mo couldn't help feeling anxious, fearing to hear bad news from Xiongwu.

"Banmu is helping Lord Xiongbai take care of the cub. The high priest said that I am clumsy and might make things worse. Kongfu is pregnant and can't help. The others also collapsed after hunting all day." Xiongwu lifted his hair to reveal his smooth forehead.

"Sick? What disease is it? I only have hemostatic herbs and medicines for snake venom. Please tell me their symptoms clearly first." Cheng Mo grabbed a handful of herbs from the bamboo basket in the corner.

"That's right. The whole body is very hot and weak." Xiongwu scratched his head. He came out in a hurry and didn't know much about the conditions of those people. He only remembered Banmu saying that it was very hot and those people fell in the haystack and couldn't be woken up even if they were called.

Cheng Mo thought for a moment, covered the bamboo basket with two pieces of animal skin, picked up the still sleeping Cheng Lingqu, held an umbrella and said, "I'll go with you to take a look, you lead the way."

It was raining heavily outside and Cheng Mo couldn't see the road clearly. Xiongwu transformed into a beast and carried Cheng Mo to their small cave. As soon as he entered, Cheng Mo saw Banmu feeding water to the cubs lying in the haystack one by one. There were three or four orcs lying in another haystack. Kongfu was making a fire with her big belly, and Xiongbai was checking on the condition of one of the cubs.

"What's wrong?" Cheng Mo leaned over to take a look at the little cubs. They had all turned into human forms, with red faces and dry mouths, curled up in the haystack and groaning.

"Cheng Mo, you are here. The little cubs are weak, and it has been raining these days. I found that they didn't get up early this morning. They were all sick." Xiong Bai waved to Cheng Mo.

Ban Mu came over and wanted to take Cheng Lingqu from Cheng Mo, but Cheng Mo avoided him: "Wait, wash your hands first before holding the child."

Although he was puzzled, Banmu still did as he was told. Cheng Lingqu lay obediently in Banmu's arms, looking around with big eyes.

Cheng Mo placed the back of his hand on the cub's forehead, which was very warm. He turned around and asked Xiong Bai: "When did they become like this?"

Xiong Bai thought for a moment and said, "Something was wrong last night. Everyone was listless, didn't eat much, just slept all the time, didn't get up in the morning, and started to feel hot at noon."

Cheng Mo touched the cub's limbs and said, "They haven't vomited or had diarrhea, have they?"

Kong Fu walked over slowly and said, "No, they have been like this since they got hot. The high priest and I didn't know where you lived, so we stayed by the side of the children and fed them water until Xiongwu and the others came back. Then we asked Xiongwu to go find you. We never left."

Cheng Mo thought about how they had been running around and working hard for days, and the weather was not good either. They might have a fever. The cubs' physique was not as good as that of adults, so it was very likely that they would have a fever. The most urgent task was to lower their body temperature.

"The children probably have a fever. Let's wipe their bodies with warm water to lower their temperature first." Cheng Mo stood up and asked Ban Mu to mix the hot water with cold water and then use it to bathe the cubs. Seeing that they didn't have enough animal skins, he tore open the animal skins he used to cover the bamboo basket, soaked them in cold water, and covered their foreheads with them to cool them down.

They worked all night long before the body temperature of the little cubs went down. Kong Fu was forced to go to bed by Cheng Mo despite being pregnant. Xiong Bai stayed with the children all night long, and his already old face looked even more haggard. Xiong Wu and the other orcs rested for a while and then took over the work from Ban Mu to bathe and feed the children.

Early in the morning, Banmu took the other orcs out hunting. Cheng Mo and Kong Fu cooked a big pot of broth and added some vegetables. At first, the little cubs were not used to eating vegetables and resisted hesitantly. It was not until Xiongya finished a bowl and wanted another one that the little cubs rushed to drink the soup.

After eating and drinking, Cheng Mo sat at the entrance of the cave, weaving a bamboo basket in the dim light. Xiong Bai sat beside him and looked at him curiously: "What are you doing?"

Cheng Mo kept replying, "Weaving bamboo baskets, this can be used to hold things, it is more convenient than using animal skins directly."

Xiong Bai was puzzled, but he had seen bamboo baskets. Cheng Mo liked to carry a bamboo basket with many things in it. It looked very useful. It turned out that the bamboo basket was woven with these things. It seemed that Cheng Mo’s tribe should be very powerful and knew a lot of things.

In the afternoon, the cubs regained their energy, and they transformed into animal forms and fluttered around Cheng Mo's feet. Kong Fu held Cheng Lingqu and teased him, making Cheng Lingqu giggle. Xiong Bo was afraid that Kong Fu would be tired, so he took Cheng Lingqu's arms after a while.

It was almost noon and Ban Mu and the others had not returned yet. Cheng Mo could not help but look outside again and again. In the past, Ban Mu seldom came back so late. Now the weather was so bad and he came back so late. Cheng Mo became even more worried.

"Xiaomo, come and sit for a while. There are so few prey now, it's common for them to come back late. Besides, there are so many of them, they will definitely be late." Xiong Bo said while touching the little feet of Li Cheng Lingqu who was carrying Li Cheng.

Cheng Mo nodded. Even though he was still a little uneasy, he felt relieved when he saw the others looking calm.

After a while, a wolf howled outside. Kong Fu stood up and said with a smile, "I'm back."

Cheng Mo walked out and saw that these people had brought back an adult bison, and Banmu was holding four or five big fish. Everyone was wet. Cheng Mo hurriedly called everyone in and served them the ginger soup and hot water that had been prepared in advance.

After they finished drinking a bowl of ginger soup with grins and wiped their bodies with hot water, Cheng Mo and Xiong Bo were already circling around the bison. Cheng Mo pointed at the bison and said happily: "Wait a minute, I'll make you a beef dinner!" The little cubs cried. Although Cheng Mo liked to cook ginger soup for them, other things Cheng Mo made were delicious.

Cheng Mo worked hard for a long time, and everyone finally had a big beef dinner. Everyone's mouths were full of oil. Xiong Bai was old, and he couldn't eat anymore after a while. He sat aside and watched the young orcs laughing and playing, tears began to flash in his eyes. Since they fled, the tribesmen fell one by one, and everyone worked hard every day to survive. They haven't been so happy for a long time. Moreover, after Ban Mu and others came, they had meals every day, and they no longer had to live with hunger and fullness. It was great!

Thinking about these things, Xiongbai finally burst into tears. He could not forget the faces of those tribesmen who shouted at them to keep running and survive at the last moment of their lives. He was the chief priest of the tribe and was old. He could not run fast. The young orcs in the tribe carried him one by one. Many of the young children fell down due to hunger and exhaustion, but he, the old man, was still alive.

Xiongbai was sitting alone in the corner with tears in his eyes. Xiongya walked over slowly after eating. Unexpectedly, he saw the high priest sitting in the corner secretly wiping his tears. Xiongya made a whimpering sound and rubbed the high priest's legs. Xiongbai sniffed, reached out and hugged Xiongya, touched his head and sighed: "Xiongya, you have to be well, live and grow up, don't forget that there is hope only when you are alive."
