Xie Yungui could sense that something inside the bulge on the head was about to pop out; it was already very hard, the beginnings of a horn.

Xie Yungui examined Leng Ran's bulge again and could feel the claws inside.

Oh my god, is it going to grow claws and horns and turn into a dragon?

Xie Yungui suppressed his curiosity and then used a healing technique to relieve his pain, not knowing if it would work.

"Leng Ran, what do you think?" Xie Yungui asked.

"Agui, I don't hurt anymore, thank you!" Leng Ran moved and said happily.

"That's good!"

"Besides, I don't feel sleepy anymore, it seems like everything is fine." After Leng Ran finished speaking, he prepared to get off the kang (a heated brick bed).

"You can rest for now, no need to get up. There's nothing to do anyway. I'll go to the cafeteria and see what we're having for tonight. I'll bring it back for you in a bit."

"Thank you, Agui."

"You are welcome."

After Xie Yungui finished speaking, he checked on his son, Xiao Latiao, and saw that he was sleeping with his belly turned up. He couldn't help but smile, quickly covered him with a blanket, and then went out of the house.

When Xie Yungui arrived at the canteen, Amin and the others had already prepared the meal. Tonight, they would be eating rice and cured meat again.

There was no other way, so they only had rice as their staple food. But Xie Yungui never got tired of it. He liked rice, and it wasn't that he didn't like noodles, he just hadn't encountered them yet.

The side dish is dried bamboo shoots stewed with cured fish.

There was only one dish, but it contained a lot of fish and meat. Xie Yungui didn't say anything; it was already very lavish, after all, this was the resource-scarce Beast World.

"Chief Agui, it's all ready for you." Afeng handed Xie Yungui two wooden bowls filled with rice and vegetables.

"Okay, you guys eat first. I'll take this food back to Leng Ran and then come back." After Xie Yungui finished speaking, he took the food home.

In just a short while, the food in the bowl had frozen solid. As for the rice, it was in a box wrapped in animal hide, so it was still warm.

Xie Yungui returned home, heated the dishes in a stone pot, and then called Leng Ran to eat.

He found that Leng Ran had fallen asleep again. He touched the bump on Leng Ran's head and found that it was getting hot again.

Xie Yungui was helpless and didn't know what to do.

He reached out and treated him briefly before leaving the house to eat.

"Dad, you're here! I saved some fish for you." Xie Chuyang was very happy to see Xie Yungui coming over.

He pointed to the piece of fish in the bowl that he had gnawed on, leaving teeth marks. He had eaten all the fish skin around the edges, leaving only the fish meat in the middle.

"Dad doesn't eat. Dad got his own share of fish. Chuyang, you eat." Each person had three palm-sized pieces of fish, which was enough for Xie Yungui to eat, and he couldn't even finish them.

"Dad, I've already eaten two big pieces of fish. This is what Xiaoyang saved for you," Xie Chuyang said, wagging his tail.

"Alright, you eat by yourself. Look, there are three big pieces in Dad's bowl. Dad can't finish all of this. Here, have a piece." It's common knowledge that Xie Yungui has a small appetite.

"Dad, no, you have to eat more, otherwise you'll get cold." The kids all know that they'll feel warmer when they're full.

"Daddy knows, Chuyang, it's just that Daddy really can't eat."

"Okay then, thank you Dad for the fish." Xie Chuyang then started eating, making slurping sounds as he ate happily.

Xie Yungui looked at the little black wolf and liked it more and more. His own cub was ultimately good-looking.

No one knows who Xie Chuyang's father is, but no matter what, this kid is his kid now, and he won't give him to anyone else.

The crisis of the fox clan invasion was resolved so easily. Apart from Leng Ran, A Niu, A Ma, and Xie Yun Gui, no one else in the tribe knew that they had almost experienced a crisis of extinction.

In the days that followed, Leng Ran and Leng Yi'an continued to hibernate, while Xie Yungui led his people in weaving, cooking, and shoveling snow, and gradually the snow season came to an end.

"Is this the end?" Because it hasn't snowed for three days.

"It's coming to an end. This year's snow season has been the most relaxing and comfortable one I've ever had," Yang Ming said with a sigh.

"Things will be better in the future than this year." Xie Yungui understood, after all, in the past, including the original owner, they had always endured the snow season by going hungry.

After the snow season, both the orcs and the females were emaciated from hunger.

This year's snow season has made everything look incredibly smooth and shiny, especially the little rabbits and other offspring, who have become chubby thanks to Xie Yungui and his family's feeding.

Xie Chuyang already had two small layers of belly fat, which showed how well they were living.

The young females were also well cared for; their cheeks were rosy, and their hair was no longer like dry straw, as it had been the first time I had seen them.

They've all grown up quite a bit now, and the boys and girls look like seven or eight-year-old children.

It has to be said that these babies grow at a different speed than humans on Earth; they seem to be growing at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"Then let's organize some people to clear the snow, otherwise, when the snow melts, everything will be wet," Xie Yungui said.

"Yes, clan leader, I'll make the arrangements right away."

After that, all the orcs and females who were able to move came out to shovel snow.

The little females and pups stayed in their dormitories and didn't come out to cause trouble.

Xie Yungui and his men cleared the snow out of the yard and placed it on the grass outside, so that the yard wouldn't become muddy after the snow melted.

By the end of the day, most of the snow in the village had been cleared.

The next day, the long-awaited sunshine shone on the earth, the snow season was finally over, and the flower season had begun.

The flowering season, or springtime, is currently still frozen ground, so nothing can be done yet. The snow hasn't completely melted, and prey won't be out.

Leng Ran finally woke up from his deep sleep. The bump on his head was even bigger and stinging to the touch, as if something was about to break through his skin and come out.

"Agui, thank you." Leng Ran thanked Xie Yungui as soon as he saw her enter the house.

"Thank me for what?" Xie Yungui didn't react.

"Thank you for taking care of me during the snow season, I know." When A-Gui's hand touched the bump on his forehead, his pain lessened considerably.

"Oh, this? Of course, you are Xiao An's father. If something happens to you, Xiao An will be very sad, and so will the clansmen." After Xie Yungui finished speaking, he put the winnowing basket away and then found a few smaller pieces of unused animal hides, preparing to sew a small garment for Xie Chuyang.

It's cold now, and his wolf fur will be soaked with water if he goes outside. If we sew him a small coat, he shouldn't be so cold.
