Transmigrated into a tortoise, the Empress and the Goddess became my sisters.

"Transform? How do you transform?" The Empress blinked her big, watery eyes, staring at Lin Tian with a face full of question marks.

"Hey, you don't understand!" Lin Tian perked up at this, cleared his throat, and patted the ground with his paw. "See this pile of fire lion bones? These are good stuff. Set them up and burn them for three days and three nights. I guarantee they'll turn into a bunch of crunchy bone shavings!"

"What's the use of bone fragments?" The Asura Goddess curled her lip. Her dark tortoise shell gleamed under the moonlight, looking like a black egg that had just crawled out of a coal pile.

"What do you know!" Lin Tian rolled his eyes. "This bone fragments mixed with mud and applied to wood will make it incredibly sturdy! Harder than steel bars, stronger than cement! When we build a house, not only will wild animals be unable to withstand it, but even a flash flood won't be able to destroy it!"

As he spoke, he gestured with his paws, spittle flying everywhere: "Then, we'll put those alloy plates inside, and hey, a safe house will be all set!"

"A safe house? Just a few pieces of scrap metal?" The Goddess of Asura was clearly skeptical.

"What kind of lousy sheet metal is that? That's called alloy plate! Don't you know high technology?" Lin Tian tapped his head. "With your IQ, you think you can rob and plunder? You'd have trouble even stealing a lollipop!"

The Asura Goddess was rendered speechless by the retort, and could only glare fiercely at Lin Tian, ​​wishing she could bite his golden tortoise shell.

"Also, we need to get a water source," Lin Tian continued, pointing with his paw to the stream not far away. "See that stream? We need to find a way to bring the water to our camp so that it will be convenient for drinking and bathing in the future."

"Draw water? How? By carrying it with your mouth?" The Goddess of Asura couldn't help but complain.

"Of course we'll use pipes! Are you stupid?" Lin Tian looked at the Goddess of Asura with an expression that said, "There are so many trees in this forest. Just cut down a few, hollow them out, and you have pipes, right?"

"Hey, you ugly thing, you've got a lot of ideas!" After listening, the Goddess of Asura actually thought there was some truth to it.

The Empress nodded repeatedly, her big eyes shining: "Brother, you're so smart! So when shall we start?"

"Let's get started now!" Lin Tian waved his hand. "Monkeys, get to work! Some of you chop down trees, some of you dig ditches. Anyone who dares to slack off won't get dinner tonight!"

"Squeak squeak squeak!" Upon hearing this, the monkey troop immediately became as energetic as if they had been injected with chicken blood, howling and starting to work.

"Let's not sit idly by. Come on, let's go and clean up the fire lion's bones first." Lin Tian called to the Empress and the Goddess of Asura, and walked towards the fire lion's corpse.

Although the wolves had eaten most of the fire lion's meat, there were still many bones left. These bones were treasures and should not be wasted.

The three turtles worked together: Lin Tian was in charge of dismantling the bones, the Empress was in charge of moving the bones aside, and the Asura Goddess was in charge of... using her charred shell to scare away any wild beasts that wanted to steal the bones.

Surprisingly, this trick worked quite well. When those wild beasts saw the appearance of the Asura Goddess, they were so frightened that they turned tail and ran away, more afraid than if they had seen a ghost.

After working for most of the night, they finally managed to clean up all the fire lion's bones.

Lin Tian looked at the mountain of bones and nodded in satisfaction: "Not bad, not bad. These bones should last us for a while."

"Brother, what are you planning to do with these bones?" the Empress asked curiously.

"Well, you'll find out when the time comes," Lin Tian said with a mysterious smile, without giving a direct answer.

He now has a general plan in mind, but he still needs to think about how to implement it.

"Ugly monster, stop playing coy!" the Asura Goddess urged. "Tell me quickly, what exactly do you want?"

"Want to know? Beg me!" Lin Tian said smugly.

"Please, my foot!" The Goddess of Asura rolled her eyes in exasperation. "Fine, don't tell me then! Who cares if I want to know!"

"Hehe, it's best if they don't care." Lin Tian chuckled, then called to the monkey troop to begin clearing the weeds and bushes around the camp.

They want to completely clear this place and then build a home that belongs to them.

In the following days, Lin Tian and his team were extremely busy.

Under Lin Tian's command, the monkeys worked with great enthusiasm. Some monkeys used their sharp claws to cut down trees, some used vines to bind the wood, and some were responsible for moving stones.

They actually did as Lin Tian asked, hollowing out the tree trunks and turning them into simple "water pipes".

Then, under Lin Tian's command, the monkey troop began digging ditches and connecting the "water pipes" one by one, extending them from the stream all the way to the camp.

Believe it or not, these monkeys are quite clever; they learn things very quickly, and in no time at all, they had completed the water diversion project.

When the clear stream water flowed into the camp through the "pipe," the monkeys cheered excitedly, waving their arms and legs, overjoyed.

Lin Tian felt relieved. Now that the water problem was solved, he wouldn't have to worry about drinking water anymore.

The Empress was responsible for setting up traps and warning devices around the camp. She used her water abilities to create mud pits and puddles on the ground and hung nets woven from vines on the trees.

These traps, though simple in appearance, are more than enough to deal with ordinary wild animals.

The Asura Goddess wasn't idle either; she was responsible for... responsible for using her foul mouth to berate those disobedient monkeys mercilessly.

Surprisingly, this trick worked quite well. Those monkeys who were originally trying to slack off immediately started working obediently after she scolded them like that.

With everyone's joint efforts, the campsite gradually took shape.

They built several simple houses out of wood and stone. Although they didn't look very nice, at least they could keep out the wind and rain.

They also built a fence around the camp, which was covered with a mixture of ash from the bones of the fire lion and mud. This mixture was not only sturdy but also emitted a foul odor that deterred most wild animals from approaching.

In the center of the camp was a stone-built fire pit with a large pot on top, simmering with fragrant meat broth.

This was stewed with wild boar meat they had stored beforehand and some wild vegetables. Although the taste wasn't exactly delicious, it was a rare delicacy under these circumstances.

"Come on, everyone, come and eat!" Lin Tian called out to everyone. He was now the leader of this camp, so his words carried weight.

Upon hearing Lin Tian's voice, the monkeys obediently gathered around, their eyes fixed on the large pot, their mouths practically watering.

The Empress and the little black bear also came over. The little black bear's injuries had almost healed, and now it could run and jump around, full of energy.

The Asura Goddess walked over reluctantly, still thinking about how Lin Tian had called her ugly.
