Surviving in the Beast World with a System-Chapter 38: Teaching a Lesson

After putting away the small folding cutting board that had just shot to the top of her favorites list, Wu Yue turned her attention to the small mountain of somewhat wilted bitter greens in the cave.

Life is so tiring~ Life is so bitter~ These bitter greens are truly bitter~

Singing the off-key song, Wu Yue began preparing dried bitter greens according to the method she recalled from memory.

The cutting board had been a pleasant surprise, and she felt the stone pot wouldn’t disappoint her either.

「Within the Polar Forest.」

A Hunting Team from the Snow Tiger Tribe was running through the jungle. At the very front were two massive, beast-form Snow Tiger Beastmen, and trailing them were several dozen powerfully-built Half beastman Warriors.

"Shi Lin, what’s that you’re carrying, kid?" a Half beastman asked, running up beside Shi Lin and poking the small Beast Skin pouch on his chest.

It was rare for a topic of conversation to pop up during the tedious march, so the surrounding Half beastman Warriors all gathered around. "Don’t tell me it’s food a little female prepared for you."

The teasing from his companions made Shi Lin a little embarrassed. He carefully stroked the small Beast Skin pouch. "They’re precious herbs. I traded for them with the new female before we left."

"Herbs!!!" The surrounding Half beastmen let out surprised, low growls, their eyes glinting as they stared at the Beast Skin pouch on his chest.

The two Beastmen running at the front also heard Shi Lin. A massive, snow-white tiger rumbled, "Are those herbs of yours real? Is the new female a witch?"

The surrounding Beastmen all turned their intense gazes on Shi Lin. It was a fair question, wasn’t it?

Besides a witch, ordinary Pure Humans couldn’t recognize medicinal herbs.

Shi Lin answered respectfully, "The female’s Amu was a Witch Disciple who used to study under the witch. Her Amu was the one who taught her about these herbs."

He finished with a firm nod. "Don’t worry, Captain. The female used these herbs when she was injured. The wound stopped bleeding in just a moment, and there was no redness or swelling. They work."

Hearing this, the beastmen’s eyes grew even brighter, and their gazes on the pouch at Shi Lin’s chest became more fervent.

"Brother Shi Lin, how about you share a little of those herbs with me? We’re such good friends, after all." The Beastman next to him shamelessly sidled closer.

Shi Lin scratched his head. "I can’t split them. The female didn’t find many herbs to begin with. I traded for some so we can all use them."

"Oh~ my dear little Shi Lin, you’re just so wonderful," a mincing voice piped up from the ranks, making all the beastmen shudder.

"Cut it out!" A slap landed on the head of the Half beastman Warrior who had spoken so strangely.

Despite their roughhousing, the beastmen didn’t slow their pace in the slightest, and soon, they vanished into that stretch of jungle.

「Meanwhile, at the edge of the Polar Forest.」

Yuan Lang stared at the two idiots in front of him, his gaze profound.

"General, let me tell you, I was just asking around, and there are a lot of chicks here," Teng Qian said, rubbing his hands together, his face full of anticipation.

"Yeah, yeah, General! And for powerful Beastman Warriors like us, as long as we can win the fight, we can have as many mates as we want. Heh heh~"

Looking at their sleazy expressions, Yuan Lang could only think, ’As expected of guys who started out as beggars. Their ability to just roll with any situation is truly a unique gift.’

"As long as you’re happy," he said meaningfully.

The two idiots hadn’t inherited the memories of their new beastman bodies, so they held high hopes for the so-called "chicks" of this world.

But Yuan Lang had no intention of telling them the truth. ’Reality would teach them a lesson.’
