My Salted Fish Life in the Beast World

The clan leader's house, like Ming's, was far away, and the clan's settlement was located higher. The two houses, one in the south and one in the north, were side by side on the mountainside.

At the bottom of the slope, the tribe lived in a settlement, with rows of houses made of wood and grass, closely connected. Occasionally, a few families would be scattered, all because they had their own caves.

Further down, there is a flat river beach and a large river winding eastward.

Ming didn't want to take Shi Erye through the orc settlement. First, he was afraid of encountering stupid beasts, which would take a lot of effort to deal with. Second, the sanitary environment was poor. Even if the orcs were starving to death, they would still do their best to have cubs. It is conceivable that with a whole family living in a shack, the smell can be smelled from far away. Especially in the dry season. Ming himself insisted that he would not enter the village if he could.

This is one of the reasons why my father and I built the house far away from the orcs.

Ming told Shi Erye his thoughts. "Ye, let me take you to the shortcut. Although it's not as wide and flat as the main road, the air and scenery along the way are still good."

"Okay!" It made no difference to Shi Erye. He followed Ming on the forest path, picking flowers and playing with birds. He walked out with the joy of a spring outing!

"The birds are leading the way, the wind is blowing towards us, and we are coming to the garden and the grass like spring..." Shi Erye hummed a song as he walked.

Seeing Erye humming a song, happy like a butterfly, Ming was very glad that he did not take her to the main road in the village. Otherwise, with the clean and delicate character of the little female, she could vomit on the spot.

"Walk a hundred steps in the morning, and you will live to be ninety-nine!" Shi Erye wiped the sweat from his forehead and said happily.

Ever since I came here, I have been treated like a pig. I have never touched water before. I have never been a gold medal salesperson before. I have to exercise a lot. I have been sweating after just walking for a while. It seems that I need to exercise more!

The two of them came leisurely to the clan leader's house and knocked on the bamboo door.

Ya yawned as he came to open the door. "It's Mingzi and his daughter-in-law. You're here so early."

"Good morning, little father!" Shi Erye greeted politely.

"Ah? Oh! Good morning." It was the first time that someone greeted her formally. Ya also responded quickly. "Ah! Yue! Yue! Our daughter-in-law is here!" She shouted into the house.

The two entered the house and Yue came out of the room.

"Good morning, mother!" She handed the flowers she picked on the road to Yue! "I picked these flowers on the road and give them to you. I hope you like them."

"Wow~ Thank you Ye! So fresh and beautiful. I like it very much!" Yue took the flowers, held them in her arms and sniffed them. She stood up, took a long bamboo tube, and inserted it into the bamboo tube.

"When I was at my mother's house, I still used clay pots to put fresh flowers in!" Yue recalled and said to Shi Erye.

Look, my daughter-in-law is sensible. When my son came over, he just kept calling out, "Mom...Mom...I didn't even pick a bunch of flowers I saw on the road."

Ming, who was being stared at, didn't understand the two women's dissatisfied looks, but he also knew that it was not appropriate to be the first to do so. He shrank aside to reduce his presence.

"Yue~ From now on, I will pick flowers for you every day~ so that you can be happy every day!" There are always those who are not afraid of death and are willing to move forward bravely. Ya licked his face and squeezed beside Yue and said.

"Is this about flowers?" Yue became angry.

"Oh yeah? Isn't it about flowers?" Ya was confused.

You know clearly, don't try to communicate with women, whatever she says is right. Don't try to change them, and don't make trouble for no reason. Think about the female beast that has been bleeding for seven consecutive days. She can cut her head with a backhand. With this force, don't try to fight her.

Hum... I'll just be mute and watch the show quietly. It's good to watch a good show...

"It's not about the flowers? It's about the pottery jar? When I'm done with this, I'll go to the North to buy you the pottery jar!" Ya patted his chest and made a promise.

"Ah~ah~...Don't talk, it gives me a headache. You should go to sleep!" Looking at the dark circles under Ya's eyes, Yue said with heartache.

"Huh? What's the matter? Are you unhappy about buying the pottery jar? Why should I go to sleep?"

Ming covered his eyes, unable to bear to watch. Little father, you are too clever for your own good? How dare you ask mother back?

"Are you complaining that I'm too controlling?" Sure enough, Yue's heartache for Ya only lasted for a second. "I can't ask you to come back?" Yue held her chest and looked at Ya pitifully. The words she asked were indeed firm as iron.

"Ah?" Ya's brain stopped working. Wasn't it about the flower pot? How come... it was so sudden... what should I do... "Yue..."

"Mom! Ye came over today and asked if you were free. Do you want to go out with us?" Ming interrupted. He decided to rescue Ya.

Yue was of course happy when she heard that Shi Erye wanted to go out with her. Then she performed a show of how to change one's expression in a second.

He turned around and put Ya's matter behind him. He took Shi Erye's hand and said with a smile, "Of course I have time. I can accompany you anytime you want. To be honest, I have a lot of free time. I am so idle that I am like a mushroom."

When Ya heard about mushrooms growing, he was so angry that he was about to go over to check it out, but Ming pulled him back and said, "Little grandfather, I'll take you to the house to rest for a while. I can see that you haven't rested enough. Let's go..."

"But... hey!... don't pull me..." Ming dragged Ya into the back room.

"Hey! Ming, why are you pulling me? Didn't you hear your mother say that she has mushrooms growing on her!" Ya said in horror, "I want to go and take a look."

Ming held him back. "If you continue to make trouble for yourself, I won't save you. Don't worry, it's okay. These are all metaphors used by females to express their boredom. For example, mushrooms stay still all day, don't they?"

"Oh~" Ya said, not really understanding. "How strange. Not only is it boring, but it also has mushrooms growing on it. I was shocked. Haha...haha..."

Looking at the silly smiling Ya, Ming shook his head. He could get the approval of his parents, which must be true love.

"By the way, little grandfather, why do you look like this?" Ming pointed at Ya's unshaved beard and dark circles under his eyes.

"Ah, it's all your fault. Ever since you handed the salt business over to me, I have been working day and night without sleep. I am so exhausted. Wei suddenly felt guilty today and took my place. I really owed you two in my previous life..."

"Are the people you're looking for trustworthy? Not many people know about it, right?" Ming asked seriously.

Yaye stopped complaining and replied seriously, "Don't worry! The people we are looking for have been discussed with Wei. That black-hearted tiger knows everything, and they are all friends of yours. Although there are not enough people, they are all well-known warriors in the tribe, and they are all very motivated!"

Ming also knew that although Ya looked lazy and unmotivated, when he worked hard, he could still be entrusted with important tasks and was worthy of trust. With Wei's joining, the salt issue was settled. He didn't have to worry about it anymore.

"Thank you for your hard work, little father! I will take mother and the little female to explore the mountains and rivers to find some fresh food that can be preserved." Ming showed off proudly.

"Ah, ah, ah... When I see you like this, I just..."

"Hey~ This is for you!" When Ya was furious, Ming took out the bag of dried meat given to him and threw it into his arms.

Yaya didn't care about being angry and opened the bag. "It's jerky, such a big bag! It smells so good, is it made by Ye? Hehe... the little female's craftsmanship is really good. Hehe..."

"Yes! We have dried meat of various flavors. You can keep them and eat them slowly. I'm taking mother and the little female out. You can have a good rest at home. I'll take the eagle out. Don't worry. Don't worry about things and lose sleep." Ming ran out of the room without waiting for Ya to speak.

Ya's words were in his mouth, and he didn't have a chance to say them. "Grass! (a kind of plant)" "You guessed what I was going to say so accurately. What can I say? These two father and son are both foxes." Oh! Never mind, eat some dried meat and go to sleep. As he said this, he held the dried meat in his mouth and lay down in the animal den. (The animal den is a cute round bed for girls. The bottom is covered with cold-proof, warm and breathable Ula grass. On top is a thick animal skin mattress. Just thinking about it makes me feel comfortable and relaxed!)

Here, Ming came out and saw the two people who had met too late talking happily. Three women are equal to five hundred ducks, so those two women can also be equal to two hundred and fifty ducks, right?

"Ahem...Mom, can we set off now?" Ming gritted his teeth and interrupted their conversation.

Yue turned her head. "Anytime is fine. Everything is ready. We're just waiting for you. Really, you're not very enthusiastic about going out to play. I'll just go get some food. Ye said that we'll go out today and have a... something like a meal..."

"Have a picnic!" Shi Erye reminded.

"Ah~ yes, yes! It's a picnic." Then he stood up to prepare food.

"Mom! We are all ready. It would be a waste to take more." Shi Erye pulled her and said.

"That won't do! I have to prepare more food. I haven't turned into an old beast yet..."

"Mother~" Shi Erye knew that Yue didn't want to take advantage of him. "Then I won't have the face to ask for anything you give me in the future." Shi Erye said pretending to be angry.

"No... Hey! This..." Yue didn't know what to say.

"Mother, just listen to Ye!" Ming also helped to persuade.

"Well... well, I'll listen to Ye." Yue no longer insisted! At worst, she could just hunt more prey and give it to them. The young couple had just started a family, so the expenses were still quite high.

If Shi Erye knew what Yue was thinking, he would be amazed. Two young and strong men, no car loan, no mortgage. No big social expenses. But at home, there is an old mother who is afraid of starving to death, thinking about how to subsidize herself every day? It is really "the meat in the hands of a loving mother is fed to her daughter-in-law..."

"Yes! That's right, mother. Besides, when we go out to eat something, Ming can go hunting. Ming is very good and has never failed. The prey is fresh and delicious. Oh, by the way, I also brought you gifts." She looked at Ming and motioned him to take out the gift.

Ming took out two bags of dried meat. "These are for mom and dad. I've already given the little dad's." Then he asked Yue, "Where did mom put it? I'll put it away for you."

"Oh my goodness~ so much dried meat! Why don't you eat it yourself? Have you moved it all over to us?" Yue looked at the two large bags of dried meat, feeling both moved and relieved.

"No! There's more! Father and little father, we hunted too many prey, and we were afraid it would go bad, so we steamed it and dried it in the wind. We also added a lot of spices to flavor it. It tastes pretty good." As he said that, Shi Erye took out one and fed it to Yue's mouth.

"Hmm! Smells good! Really delicious!" Yue took the dried meat and tasted it, giving it a high evaluation. "In the future, mother will follow you more and learn some cooking skills!"

"Okay!" Shi Erye agreed readily.

After putting the dried meat away, the three of them closed the doors and windows and went out.

Walking to the open space in the yard, Ming whistled loudly.

It was the second night, and I suddenly felt the sun above my head being blocked, and the wind was picking up. Two big, strong, black birds landed in the yard.

Although he was mentally prepared, Shi Erye didn't expect the sculpture to be so big! The impact was even stronger at close range.

"How is it? It looks pretty fresh, right? It was caught for me by Ming's father and little father." Yue said happily!

"Yeah! Very cool! Can I go over and say hello?" Shi Erye asked Yue.

"Of course, come, give me your hand." As he said that, he took Shi Erye's hand and walked over. "Squat down!" Yue said to the two birds of prey.

The two eagles squatted down obediently and lowered their heads. "Touch them," Yue said, and put Shi Erye's hand on the eagle's shiny feathers.

It was the second night, and I saw that the two eagles were docile and well-behaved. I stroked them without any worries. The bird feathers under my palms were warm, fluffy, delicate and smooth...

He took out some dried meat from the bag and gave it to the two eagles. The two eagles looked towards Yue.

Yue smiled and said, "You can eat anything that sister gives you. Remember to thank sister!"

The two eagles raised their necks and let out a long cry before they began to eat the dried meat that Shi Erye handed over.

"Wow~ They are really two good and human-like babies! Were they thanking me just now?" Erye, who had just picked up two eagle brothers for free, asked the moon.

"um, yes!"

"Mom, there are four bags of dried meat in the kitchen, and two bags are for the two eagles. Please help me feed them when the time comes!"

"You also brought gifts for them?" Yue didn't expect this.

"Yeah! We are all members of the same family!"

"Yeah! That's right! They are from the same family. Then I would like to thank you on their behalf!"

"By the way, Ye, which one are you going to sit on later? They will carry us and we will be there soon!" Yue asked.

"Huh?" Shi Erye was confused. "Can this be ridden?" Was he going to cosplay the one-armed hero Yang Guo?

"Oh~" Guo'er~ "Oh~" Long'er~

Eh~~! I shook my head to get rid of the two little people playing tricks in my mind...

"Of course she sits on my back," Ming answered before Shi Erye could answer. He thought, how can Shi Erye ride on someone else's pet? If she wants to ride, she should find one for her. Looking at Shi Erye's love for pets, Ming thought, he should go to the dense forest to find a suitable pet for her!

Yue looked at his little cub, tsk! The male beast's shameful possessiveness! "That's fine! I'll feel relieved if you take Ye with you." Then he said to Ye: "Then let's go!"

"Yes! Let's go!" Shi Erye made the gesture of Astro Boy setting off!

The eagle arched its back and carried Yue on its back. After Ming saw Yue sitting down, he also turned into a big white tiger and carried Shi Erye on his back. The three people and two birds took off steadily.
