Chapter 44: Counting Tail Hairs
As the sky gradually darkened, venison was stewing in the stone pot on the stove at the entrance of Su Xiyue's cave. Steam was bubbling out of the pot and the aroma was fragrant.

She sat in front of the stove, holding a wooden stick in her hand, stirring the firewood in the stove from time to time.

Mo Lin, Qing Zhu and Xuan Ming had already drunk up all the bone mushroom soup and even washed the bowls clean.

They were standing next to her, all looking at her, or to be more precise, at the venison in the stone pot.

Their eyes were burning, their Adam's apples moving up and down. It was obvious that they had just drunk such a big pot of soup, but now they looked like three wolves that had been hungry for a long time.

However, the venison will not be ready that quickly after it is stewed.

Su Xiyue's mouth twitched slightly, pretending not to see it. She just lowered her eyes to look at the fire in the stove and snorted in her heart.

You all disliked me before, and I hated you all so much.

Humph, wait until you fall in love with me completely, and then I will show you how I will deal with you. I will make you squat in the corner and count the hairs on your tails.

You have to count them before you can eat what I make.

She thought happily, but she did not forget to continue stirring the firewood with her hands, so as to prevent the fire from being too big and burning the venison in the pot.

Xuan Ming looked at the slightly raised corner of her mouth, his black eyes flashing slightly. How could he not know that she was very proud?
However, he didn't say anything, and looked at the stone pot again. Even though he hadn't eaten it yet, he could smell the fragrance in the air and knew that the venison in the pot must taste good.

Thinking of the bone mushroom soup he had just drunk, the taste was so good that he couldn't stop eating it.

Now I smell the aroma of venison in the air again, and I feel that all the barbecue I had before wasted. The taste is incomparable at all.

At the same time, I became more excited.

Mo Lin and Qing Zhu were similar to him, both staring at the steaming stone pot with burning eyes, eagerly waiting for the venison to be stewed.
Su Xiyue felt it was such a waste to see them just standing there.

So I wanted to find something for them to do.

With that in mind, she said to the three of them, "It'll take some time for the venison to stew, and you three are standing anyway. Why don't you go get me a few wooden bowls, about the same size as the stone bowls, and five or six plates, the same style as the stone plates next to them. And two larger soup bowls, about enough to hold three bowls of water."

Stone bowls are heavy, rough, and unpolished, so they are naturally not as light and easy to use as wooden bowls.

Although Mo Lin, Qing Zhu and Xuan Ming were reluctant to move, they did not refuse after thinking of the venison in the stone pot.

He quickly left the cave and went to make what Su Xiyue wanted.

……

At this time, the sky had completely darkened, the sky was dotted with stars, and the bright moonlight sprinkled on the earth, adding a layer of silver gauze to the entire tribe, mysterious and dreamy.

Under the cover of night, a blazing bonfire was lit in the tribal square. Light and shadow danced on the faces of orcs and females, creating a warm atmosphere.

Ye Ling sat alone, the firelight reflected in his silver eyes, but it could not illuminate the haze in his heart.

He held a branch in his hand and scratched it on the ground unconsciously, feeling annoyed.

That fragrance, that damned fragrance, lingered at the tip of his nose, as if mocking his endurance.

He knew that it was Su Xiyue who was cooking, and the whole tribe was filled with that tempting aroma.

It has been floating since noon until now and has never stopped.

"Is she a pig? Isn't she afraid of getting fat to death after eating so much?"

He had a gloomy face and cursed under his breath.

In fact, he knew in his heart that Su Xiyue made it for Mo Lin, Qingzhu, Xuanming and others.

But he still cursed like that, as if scolding Su Xiyue would make him feel better.

At the same time, he had to admit that the fat woman's cooking skills were indeed good, so good that even he, who hated her so much, couldn't help but be moved.

However, being attracted to someone doesn't mean he will go for that ugly girl.

Ye Ling became increasingly irritated. He looked down and found that the branch in his hand had been crushed to pieces.

He frowned, threw it on the ground, clapped his hands, stood up and walked out of the square.

After taking two steps, Mia called out to him. "Ye Ling, what's wrong with you? Why do you look so grim?"

Ye Ling paused and glanced sideways at Mia who was walking towards him. Disdain flashed across the depths of his silver eyes. He ignored her and walked away.

In his opinion, Mia only had a pretty face, an arrogant and unpleasant personality, and was greedy.

She already has 7 beastly husbands, but she is still not satisfied. She wants more of them without even considering whether she can handle them at night.

Seeing that he ignored her, Mia walked away with an extremely ugly look on her face.

"Damn Ye Ling, how am I inferior to that ugly freak, really?"

She looked in the direction where Ye Ling left, stomped her feet angrily, and cursed under her breath.

But then, when he smelled the aroma of meat wafting in the air, his face became even uglier.

The fragrance has been wafting from noon until now, and it has never stopped, making her drool.

I even had no appetite for barbecue in the evening. The food that I used to think was delicious now tasted like chewing wax.

She thought of Mu Qing again, and a bit of dissatisfaction and complaints appeared in her eyes. She thought she could get some food made by the ugly guy from Am.

But there was no movement until the evening.

I don’t know whether the ugly guy didn’t give it to Am, or Am hid and ate it secretly without sharing any for himself.

In short, she was very unhappy at the moment and didn't like anyone.

The females in the tribe naturally smelled the fragrance and knew that Su Xiyue was making food again, but they were too embarrassed to ask for it.

They asked their husbands to go find stone pots and try to make it themselves.

On this side, Ye Ling had just left the tribal square. When passing by Su Xiyue's cave, he saw Mo Lin transform into his original form, a giant black python, with its tail curled up high and then falling heavily.

With a series of loud "snap" sounds, the thick tree trunks on the ground were broken into pieces.

Qingzhu and Xuanming, one turned into the Blue Moon Howling Wolf and the other turned into the Netherworld Dark Wolf, each of them held a piece of wood, lay there, and kept digging at the wood with their claws.

It seems like it is being planed into some shape.

Ye Ling was confused and didn't understand what they were doing at first.

I stood there and watched for a while, until the objects gradually took shape, and then I realized that they were making wooden bowls.

He was stunned. He didn't expect that these three guys would work so hard just to eat the fat woman's food?
He was even more angry and felt isolated.

He snorted coldly and turned to leave.

But he saw Su Xiyue standing at the entrance of the cave, looking at him. From a distance, she said loudly to him, "Ye Ling, if you are willing, come and help. Let's do it together and speed up."

Ye Ling paused and looked at Su Xiyue with a strange expression.

Wanting him to help? That's just wishful thinking.

I stared at her for a while, and I didn't know if it was my illusion, but I felt that her buck teeth were not so obvious anymore, and even her mouth seemed smaller.

He frowned slightly, not understanding what was going on.

But I didn't think much about it and just thought it was because it was dark at night.

Thinking of what she had just said, he said coldly: "Why should I help you?"

Su Xiyue was not surprised by his reaction. This bastard hated her to the extreme, so it would be strange if he agreed easily.

She smiled faintly and said, "Of course you can choose not to help, but..."

She deliberately stretched out her voice.

Ye Ling couldn't help but frown and looked at her with some displeasure.
