Farming in the Beast World: I Lead the Orphan Beast Husband to Become Rich

Lin Xi's illness came on with great force.

As it coincided with her menstrual period, she felt uncomfortable for more than half a month before she completely recovered!

By the time she recovered from her illness, the collective gathering in the tribe had already ended!

However, what is different from the past is that after each collective gathering, most of the herbivorous beastmen would directly enter the winter rest period and would not go out again.

But this winter, thanks to the existence of bows and arrows, after collecting their main plant food, they began to try to go out and hunt again.

For safety reasons, the herbivorous orcs still hunted in groups, but Bai Nu did not follow them this time.

The orcs are very skilled in using bows and arrows, and the hunting area is within the tribe’s territory, so there is no need to worry too much.

As for the carnivorous orcs in the tribe, hunting was still going on because they had wasted a lot of time guarding the tribe.

But as the weather gets colder, the days when we can go out are coming to an end.

On this day, Lin Xi finally felt a little lighter all over.

She wrapped herself tightly, opened the door and walked outside.

The world outside was already bleak. Underfoot was the gray-black soil revealed by the withered grass and trees, which spread all the way to the edge of the forest.

The sky above has been gray since the first snow. The gloomy sky makes people feel very depressed. Combined with the woods in the distance where all the leaves have fallen and only silver-gray branches remain, it gives people a feeling that the whole world is desolate!

Lin Xi stood at the entrance of the cave, exhaled, and white mist blew out of his mouth and spread in the cold air.

Because Lin Xi was sick, Wu Chen had stayed at home for almost a third of his time recently and had not gone out. It was not until Lin Xi's condition improved in the past two days that he started to continue hunting.

Fortunately, Bai Nu sent over a dozen giant beasts some time ago, and during this period, the fish cages and clam cages they put in the Mogan River have yielded harvests every day, so there is no need to worry about not having enough food.

Lin Xi breathed in the fresh air outside the cave for a while, and soon the tip of his nose felt cold from the wind.

She lifted her feet and slowly walked down the hillside toward the direction of the witch's residence.

She wanted to ask the witch for something, but she didn’t know if she could get it!

The tribe was very quiet at this time. Two-thirds of the orcs had gone out, and only a few stayed at home to look after the house.

Lin Xi walked all the way to the outside of Wu's residence and knocked on the door panel which was obviously newly made.

The door was quickly opened. Lin Xi was stunned when she saw the orc opening the door. Before she could say anything, the orc on the other side greeted her: "Lin Xi the Wise."

Lin Xi reacted and nodded: "Ah, Qinglin."

Qinglin, a tall and thin male snake with long dark green hair.

Is the witch's companion.

"Qinglin, is Wu at home?"

"At home, Linxi Sage, please come in!"

Qinglin made way for Linxi.

The witch's residence is also a cave. As soon as you enter, a warm feeling hits you in the face, instantly dispelling the cold air brought from outside.

Wu was very surprised to see Lin Xi: "Lin Xi, wise man, come and sit down."

She called Lin Xi and sat down on a small wooden stool in front of the fireplace. Then she asked with some concern: "Wise Lin Xi, are you no longer feverish?"

"Yeah," Lin Xi nodded: "Everything is fine, there is no problem."

Lin Xi had been ill for more than half a month, but he had not told the other orcs. However, Wu and Bai Nu had noticed that he had not been out for gathering for such a long time.

Then one of them asked Wu Chen, and the other went to Lin Xi and Wu Chen's cave to see for themselves, only to find that their wise man was so seriously ill!

But fortunately, nothing serious now.

After Lin Xi answered Wu's question, he quickly changed the conversation to the purpose of his visit: "Wu, I came here to ask you something."

"Oh? What is that?" Wu looked at Lin Xi in confusion. Qing Lin also sat down beside him, looking curious.

"It's the thing you throw on the fire during the bonding ceremony to make it burn more vigorously."

Lin Xi looked at Wu in confusion and asked, "What is that?"

"that?"

Wu suddenly understood and smiled: "That is black oil water. Pour it on the fire to make it burn more vigorously. You don't even need a pile of fire. Just use a flint to rub it and it will burn on its own!"

"Black oily water?" Lin Xi repeated in a low voice. Isn't this similar to petroleum?

In fact, she had guessed it when she saw the bowl of black water before, and now Wu's answer further verified it for her.

"Can I take a look?" Lin Xi asked. Wu certainly had no objection: "Of course."

Then she looked at Qinglin who was sitting on the side: "Qinglin, help me get a bowl of black oil water for Sage Linxi."

Qinglin stood up immediately.

After a while, he came over with a small fruit shell bowl. Lin Xi took it carefully and looked down.

Then I discovered that this could indeed be called black oil water. It was very black and oily, but also very watery.

However, the texture is still very different from that of oil.

In fact, Lin Xi came to Wu to ask for this thing because she wanted to see if she could use this black oil water to make an oil lamp.

Although she had dug windows in the cave and there was a fireplace for lighting, she still felt that the light in the cave was too dim.

Especially now in the middle of winter, the windows can't be kept open all the time, and relying solely on the firelight in the fireplace is fine for daily use, but if she wants to sew clothes or weave a fishing net, it won't be enough!

Of course, Lin Xi also thought about using animal fats as lamp oil, but she thought that if this black oil water was okay, it would be better to save the animal fats for making food.

But Lin Xi was a little worried, whether this thing would have any special meaning?

Because until now, she had only seen the witch use this thing during the partnership ceremony and her wise man's inauguration ceremony.

She had never even heard the other orcs mention it!

So Lin Xi looked at Wu expectantly: "Wu, where did this thing come from? Why is it only here in Wu? Is the quantity so small?"

However, Wu's answer was beyond Lin Xi's expectations:

"No, there's a lot of black oil and water!"

She looked at the black oily water in Lin Xi's hand and said, "The place where the black oily water was found is in the big cave in the middle of the tribe. It is because of this black oily water that our tribe is called the Mountain Fire Tribe."

"When the black oily water was first discovered, the orcs used it to help light fires. At that time, we orcs could only make fire by drilling wood together. The fire we made could be poured with black oily water, so it could burn quickly without worrying about it being extinguished accidentally."

"Later, a witch discovered flint, and the black oil water was no longer useful, but it is still a lucky charm for our tribe."

After listening to this, Lin Xi suddenly realized and felt relieved.

As long as it can be used, she can make oil lamps!
