I transmigrated into a beast world, hated by everyone, and was eaten by a shameless snake.

Leng Ran was surprised to learn that such a prickly ball of fur contained such a fruit.

"Ah Gui, is this really edible?"

"Yes, it's edible, and very delicious!" Chestnuts are certainly delicious, and they weren't cheap in my past life.

"Then I'll pick some up and take them back." There are a lot of these fluffy balls on the ground.

"First, carry the firewood back, then bring the clansmen to collect it together. The more people there are, the faster it will be collected."

"Alright!"

The two then carried the firewood back to their tribe, and then led the tribespeople to collect it together.

When people saw this fluffy ball, they were actually a little scared, because they had all been pricked by it before.

"Take a stone and crack it open, and the fruit inside will fall out," Xie Yungui said, demonstrating once.

"Chief Agui, we understand!"

"Then you guys knock, Ah Ming, Ah Feng, we'll go pick it up!"

"Yes, Chieftain."

The group took out tongs made of bamboo strips and began to collect the items. In one afternoon, they filled seven or eight animal skin bags.

They went back to collect them the next day and returned with a full load once again.

Just as the Wangshan tribe was happily stockpiling supplies, the fox tribe, which had occupied the rabbit tribe, had reached the brink of despair.

"Chieftain, what should we do? We haven't stocked up on supplies for the snow season. How are we going to survive the snow season?" Priest Fox Green looked terrified.

There's no food during the snowy season; they can only starve or freeze to death. She doesn't want to die.

"What can I do? Who knew the rabbit tribe would be this poor?" There are grasslands everywhere, but no prey.

They only encounter them occasionally, because on the grasslands, their animal forms have nowhere to hide, and they escape before they can catch their prey.

They always returned empty-handed, and even if they caught a little, it wasn't enough for their tribe to eat.

"If I had known, I wouldn't have driven those little rabbits into the Death Forest. If it really came down to it, Xueji could have eaten them. After all, they weren't our offspring, and no one from other tribes would have known. Besides, when Xueji gets really hungry, how many tribes have eaten their own offspring?" Fox was really regretful.

Fox Qing was shocked after hearing this. Eat cubs?

Although it has happened before, it certainly hasn't happened in the fox tribe before. However, now even eating cubs to get through the winter is a luxury, because the fox tribe doesn't have many cubs left.

Even if there are cubs, they are the fox clan's own cubs. Now the clan's population has decreased significantly, and if they continue to eat the cubs, the fox leader fears there will be a population shortage.

However, it is not impossible in a desperate situation; there is only hope if the adult beastmen and females survive.

If the offspring are gone, they can continue to reproduce. But if both the beastmen and the females are gone, then there are truly no more offspring.

"Didn't we store up a lot of grass and wild vegetables? Let's eat them during the snowy season." After saying that, Fox Big himself was disgusted by the wild vegetables and grass, which not only had a strange taste but were also very unpalatable.

"If we can eat rabbits, why can't we? Let's just hold off this year." Fox's words filled everyone present with despair.

But there was nothing they could do; there was simply no prey in this territory.

A-Bing, A-Yan, and A-Hua sat together. They were among the closest people in the tribe, and since migrating here, they hadn't had a proper meal in a long time.

They all had sallow complexions and were emaciated, looking severely malnourished.

"Ah Hua, tomorrow, let's go pick some more of those fruits to save for the snow season. They're not very tasty, but they'll do us a good job," Ah Bing, who is both male and female, said to them.

"Okay, but even so, it's hard to find them. They're all gone. We need to go find them as soon as possible." Ah Yan agreed.

"If only Ah Gui were here, he would be the best at picking these things to eat. The fruits and wild vegetables he picks are even tastier than what we find ourselves." Ah Hua said, then frowned. How did we end up talking about him?

"Hmph, that ominous Agui should be dead by now. After all, the heavenly punishment is so severe, it's bound to punish those who are unlucky."

"It's a pity about Ah Hua. When we found her, her body was burned to the point that only half of it remained."

"That's her own fault. Who told her to get so close to that Ah Gui? How about it? She's being punished now!"

"That's true. If Ahua hadn't gotten so close to Agui, she definitely wouldn't have died."

"Sigh, it's a pity the punishment was too severe that day. Now that it's cold, the tendons in my ankles are so painful!"

"Ahua, you should be grateful. At least you survived. The two with the throat injuries have already gone to see the Beast God."

"Yeah, I'm just lucky!"

"By the way, we were supposed to have partners this year, but the tribe suffered a disaster, and there was no day for choosing a partner. What do you and your chosen partners say?" After all, the chief said that this year is special, and as long as you like each other, you can live together, and the Beast God will not blame you.

"My partner said we should wait, that we're too poor right now and it's not appropriate for us to live together," Ayan said, her expression grim.

It wasn't that his partner was too poor, but rather that he no longer found her attractive.

Ever since her last injury left unsightly scars on her face, the person she liked has been very cold towards her.

He would only come to her when he had desires, and each time he did, he would only bring her some fruit, and that fruit was bitter.

She understood that there was no prey to eat in the tribe, but if he had paid a little more attention, he would have found her some sweeter fruit; he just didn't care.

"Actually, that's how it is. Sigh, I've already made up my mind. This year, I'm going to serve three orcs to get through the snow season. Otherwise, I'm afraid I'll starve to death." After saying that, Ahua brushed the grass aside.

"That's good. I'll go ask too. I don't want to die during the snow season."

Only Ayan didn't say anything, because of the scars on her face, the tribe's beastmen would avoid her.

The scar was caused by smoke inhalation, and I didn't pay attention when I ran away. As a result, after it healed, there was a two-finger-wide, black scar on my face, which looked very unsightly.

Now, she finally understands how Ah Gui felt when she was disliked; it was truly awful.

And now she is the second Agui. Now, he only cares about the beastman who used to admire her. He doesn't even look at the others.

Even if she wanted to find more orcs to rely on, it would be impossible, because they wouldn't even look at her.

Now, the females of the fox tribe live in tents because the rabbit tribe doesn't dig burrows; they only dig earthen burrows.

The fox clan dislikes living in damp underground environments, and secondly, during the snowy season, the underground is very cold because the frozen soil has no temperature.

So everyone crowded into the animal skin tent.
