The Beast God’s Test

Wuwuwu…

How can he weave a fishing net! What can his hairy paws do!

Wuwuwu, another day when he wanted to turn back into human form!

“What’s wrong?” After cooking the meat soup, Yu called Cheng An to come over for food. Seeing that he didn’t move for a long time, he came over to take a look.

Who knew that when he came, he saw Cheng An lying next to the bundle of grass with a look of despair on his face with a few loose grasses under him.

“Is this grass not good? Don’t be sad, maybe there are other grasses that can be used to weave a net.” Yu picked up Cheng An, patted the grass debris on his body, and took him to eat.

“No, this grass can be used to weave a net. I just tested it. The flexibility of this grass is very good. It can be used to make fishing nets.” Cheng An smelled the meat and became more energetic. He sat down and started to eat while talking to Yu.

“Then why are you unhappy?” Yu handed Cheng An two pieces of stewed meat.

Speaking of this, Cheng An felt that the meat in his mouth was not fragrant. He raised a paw and put it on Yu, saying earnestly: “Alas, I just suddenly found that my hands are not good at manipulating those grasses. My paw is not flexible at all!”

Yu pinched Cheng An’s paw with amusement. Why is he talking so old-fashioned now?

“It doesn’t matter, take your time. It doesn’t matter if the net is not woven well this snow season. With you… and the meat given to us by the beast god, the tribe will have no problem getting through this snow season. So don’t worry.”

“No.” Cheng An refused subconsciously. If he didn’t figure out the fishing net during this snow season, he would miss a lot.

 Yu was stunned. He didn’t expect Cheng An to be so obsessed with fishing nets. “Okay then. You can teach me how to make fishing nets. Let’s learn to do it together. Maybe it will be faster.”

“Okay!” Cheng An became happy again. “Can I call Shitou and Xiao Hua? I want more people to help!

“Okay.” Yu agreed to Cheng An’s request without thinking too much. After all, if they could really make a fishing net and catch fish, it would be a blessing for their tribe. “But you have to eat the meat first. Eat it quickly!” Yu touched Cheng An’s fluffy little head and urged him to eat quickly.

“Mm!  “Cheng An nodded heavily and after talking to Yu, he was not as sad as at the beginning! The meat in the bowl was more fragrant than usual.

It’s true that the meat is delicious, but Cheng An still began to miss the taste of rice. He wanted to eat meat sauce rice.

It’s a pity that there is no rice among his current seeds, but he seems to have a few seed gift packs or blind boxes?

Cheng An suddenly remembered that he still had a few blind boxes that he hadn’t opened.

He was not in a hurry to open them now. It would not be too late to open the blind boxes in spring when he could sow on a large scale. Leave a little hope for himself.

Alas, if he still had the lucky buff experience now, the goddess of luck will favor him again!

After dinner, Cheng An excitedly pestered Yu and wanted to go out to call Shitou and Xiao Hua.

Although there were not many people in their tribe, the beastmen that Cheng An was familiar with were Shitou, Xiao Hua and Grandma Cao besides Yu.

Grandma Cao was older, and Cheng An was embarrassed to disturb her. He was clamoring to weave a fishing net, which may seem to Shitou and the others as just a pastime.

Cheng An was not discouraged. After he made a name for himself in weaving a fishing net and taught Xiao Hua and Shitou, he would mobilize the people of the tribe to weave fishing nets together!

When Shitou heard someone calling his name, he thought he was dreaming. The tribe had just distributed meat, and everyone had enough food in the cave. It was also snowing outside. If he didn’t hide in the cave to sleep or cook meat soup at this time, why would someone call him outside the cave?

Shitou changed his sleeping position, buried his head in his tail, and planned to continue sleeping.

There is nothing to do in winter, not even hunting. Most beastmen don’t get up early. Most of the time they hide in the cave to sleep, and it is common to eat only one or two meals a day.

How can it be like Yu, who gets up early every day to cook meat soup three times a day to take care of Cheng An, the little wolf cub? Sometimes Cheng An is very hungry, and he has to cook a few more meals.

“Shitou! Don’t sleep! The sun is going to burn your butt!” Cheng An yelled at the top of his lungs. He still didn’t believe that he couldn’t open this stone cave!

Shitou stepped on nothing in his dream and woke up quickly with a kick. Someone really called him?

The voice sounded like Cheng An. Shitou’s eyes lit up. Could it be that the beast god sent them meat again? Thinking of going out, Shitou didn’t turn into a human. He ran to the cave entrance and pulled away the stones blocking the cave entrance.

“Shitou, you finally woke up!” Cheng An was a little tired of shouting. If he didn’t wake up again, his throat would be broken.

“An! Yu! Did the beast god send meat to our tribe again?” Shitou’s eyes sparkled.

Cheng An moved his eyes away with a guilty conscience: “I guess so.”

“Where is it? Where is it?” Shitou said excitedly, “Let’s go quickly! It will be bad if we go too late and get taken away by other beastmen and beasts!  “

Shitou still had a lot of meat from the last time. He could still clearly remember the taste of the braised beef and potatoes he ate yesterday! After he came back, he tried to cook it a few times. Although it was not as delicious as Yu’s, it was still very delicious!

The meat that the beast god gave to their tribe was really delicious! The meat given this time must be delicious too!

Shitou was drooling just thinking about it.

“This… don’t rush. Go back to the cave and put on your animal skin, and then call Xiao Hua to our cave.” Cheng An was a little tired from calling Shitou to get up, and the snow was heavy today, so he wanted to go back to the cave.

Let Shitou call Xiao Hua!

“Why?” Shitou tilted his head, trying to think of something. “Is the meat in your cave? !”

Cheng An quickly explained: “No, no, don’t just think about the meat. The beast god said that he can’t give us meat directly this time, he has to test us! So he has to give us some small tempering first.  “

“We’ll go back first. Remember to call Xiao Hua. If he doesn’t want to come, forget it.” Cheng An lay on Yu’s back, and waved back to the stone.

“It’s so cold!” Cheng An couldn’t wait to get back into the cave as soon as he got back to the cave, and told Yu to make the fire bigger.

Yu made the fire very big, “If it’s cold, just stay in the cave. I can go and call them alone.”

“Oh, it would be more obvious if we go together. Right, we should pay attention!” Cheng An sneezed. He thought that Yu might be angry, and ran over to rub him.

“I’m fine. I won’t get sick!” Cheng An assured Yu that he had just stayed in the cave for too long and wanted to get some fresh air.

Yu rubbed Cheng An’s head and picked him up, making sure that all the fur on his body was warm and fluffy before putting him down.

“There won’t be a next time. You are not allowed to go out when it snows. Just stay in the cave.  “

Cheng An nodded. It was getting colder outside. He couldn’t stand just a few steps. The weather changed so fast. He could still go out a few days ago.

Cheng An thought of the vegetable seeds he had tested and found that two of them had frozen to death.

Cheng An sighed. The temperature dropped suddenly. He was not prepared and two of his precious seedlings were frozen to death.

He thought the weather in the past two days was cold enough, but he didn’t expect it to be even colder.

It seems that they can’t easily plant in a greenhouse! Fortunately, there are not many seeds planted, so it’s not a big waste.

Thinking of the fact that he pulled Xiao Hua and Shitou out of the cave to work in this weather, Cheng An felt guilty. He rubbed against Yu.

“Let’s make oil-braised beef with potatoes again at noon today? Shitou and the others will definitely eat here. It seems a bit unethical to call them out to work in this weather.  “

Yu touched Cheng An’s little head and comforted him, “Don’t worry, they won’t blame you. I know how to make braised beef with potatoes, and I won’t let them go hungry.”

Cheng An raised his head and enjoyed Yu’s fur-stroking service. He said coquettishly, “Yu, you are so nice!”

Soon, the sound of Shitou and Xiao Hua talking came from outside the cave. Cheng An moved his ears and instantly lost his guilt.

Gently biting Yu’s hand, he urged him to move the stone away.

“You are here!” Cheng An wagged his tail happily, “Are you cold? Come and warm yourself by the fire! I roasted yam, you can eat them when you are hungry later!  “

Cheng An excitedly led Shitou and Xiao Hua to the fire, and asked them to sit in a row. Then he asked Yu to bring the bundle of fine grass over.

Weaving a fishing net is delicate manual work, and you still have to sit by the fire to do it. Otherwise, if your fingers are frozen, your flexibility will be greatly reduced, which will affect your work efficiency!

Cheng An will never allow this to happen!

Before coming to Yu’s Cave, Shitou had already told Xiao Hua about the situation. Xiao Hua was nervous all the way, fearing that if he did not complete the test of the Beast God, the tribe would not get meat.

“An, what is the test of the Beast God?” Xiao Hua sat a little stiffly, with his hands on his knees, not knowing where to put them.

“Yes, I also want to know what the test of the Beast God is? Is it to see who runs faster? I run very fast!” Shitou was eager to try, completely ignoring the bundle of grass in front of them. He even wanted to add the grass to the fire to make it burn more vigorously.

“Stop!” Cheng An quickly stopped Shitou’s action, “Don’t burn these grasses!”

“Ah?” Shitou didn’t understand. He turned the grass in his hand over and over again, but he couldn’t figure it out, “Isn’t this just ordinary grass? I remember there are a lot of them on the hillside.”

Cheng An nodded and shook his head, “This is the grass on the hillside, yes. But this is not ordinary grass.”

Shitou scratched his head, not understanding what Cheng An wanted to say.

Xiao Hua suddenly asked, “An, is this grass the test given to us by the Beast God?”

Cheng An nodded, “Yes! Xiao Hua got it right! Add one point!”

Xiao Hua’s face was red with excitement.

“Ah? The test of the Beast God is this grass? Is it for eating?” Shitou looked left and right and couldn’t see anything special about the grass, so he just put it in his mouth and chewed it.

“Puh, phuh, phuh! This grass doesn’t taste good either, it’s bitter and astringent!  “Shitou’s whole face wrinkled.
