Pointing the Way
Wu Sheng agreed without much consideration.
The people of the Upper Meng Tribe listened to their chieftain and had no objections.
Little Good One has already reached this stage of giving birth, so of course it's impossible to give her any more anesthetic.
Now, Little Good One needs to cooperate, and the people from the Upper Meng Tribe need to go into the water to control Little Good One, so that Jian Mo won't be accidentally injured by it while performing surgery on Little Good One.
Little Good One is already quite weak. At this stage of birth, cutting its birth canal shouldn't be too painful for it, but we still need to be on the safe side.
Everyone, hurry up and make preparations.
Soon, a dozen orcs from the Upper Meng Tribe transformed back into otters and subdued Little Good One from both sides underwater.
Jian Mo, Little Good One was positioned in a sideways swimming position.
Jian Mo's scalpel was honed to a very sharp point by Wu Jiong, who was also very experienced and had a steady hand.
In no time, he cut open the birth canal and grabbed the baby Heqin's side fin with his gloved hand.
No wonder there was a difficult Heqin; the baby's side was blocking the birth canal completely.
Jian Mo had to expend some effort to turn the baby Heqin around and tie its tail with a wide strip of cloth, intending to drag it out.
Jian Mo originally planned for everyone to pull together, but after he dragged out the strip of cloth, Wu Sheng said, "I'll do it," and his arm muscles bulged, easily dragging Heqin out.
Orcs are much stronger than humans, Jian Mo had momentarily forgotten.
After Heqin Baby came out, Jian Mo quickly untied the cloth strip at its tail and fiddled with it for a bit.
As soon as the baby Heqin came into contact with the water, it quickly came back to life, flicked its tail and swam straight to the head of the Little Good One in front of it, rubbing against the Little Good One.
When Little Good One saw the baby come out, she felt a little better, touched the baby with her kiss, and let out a long whimper.
The people of the Upper Meng Tribe cheered.
Seeing this, Jian Mo quickly reminded them, "There's still one Heqin hasn't hatched yet, let's try again."
Chapter 151 Points the Way
The second baby, born to Heqin, was relatively small and did not experience any complications during labor; the baby was in the correct position.
With almost no assistance from Jian Mo, Little Good One regained her strength and gave birth to the baby Heqin.
The second baby Heqin was smaller but in better condition. It could swim around nimbly as soon as it was born. It quickly swam to the side of Little Good One Heqin Fish and the other baby Heqin, and rubbed against Little Good One affectionately.
Little Good One Guai touched the baby Heqin Fish with its snout.
Little Good One struggled to give birth to the remnants and eggshells, then fell asleep, exhausted.
Jian Mo quickly used the Long-Tailed Beast's tendon to sew up its wound and applied a dressing made from the sap of the Kunzhi Tree.
This type of dressing has only moderate strength, but it is waterproof, so even Heqin Fish can use it.
Many people from the Upper Meng Tribe were shocked by Jian Mo's treatment methods, saying they never expected such medical techniques.
Jian Mo smiled and explained that it was a technology from his hometown.
The people of the Upper Meng Tribe were overjoyed to see that Little Good One and Heqin were both safe and sound, and they held a bonfire party to celebrate.
Jian Mo was exhausted after a long day and wasn't in the mood for celebration. She ate a little something at the bonfire party and then went back to her room to sleep.
The next day, when Jian Mo woke up, she saw that Little Good One had regained its energy and was swimming around on the shore.
Two little Heqin fish were swimming nearby, occasionally swimming to the shore to the Upper Meng Tribe.
The people of the Upper Meng Tribe fed meat to Little Good One and the two Heqin babies.
They threw the meat high into the river, and two baby Heqin jumped up to catch it, opening their mouths wide and catching it with a "whoosh" sound, one after another.
As for the meat fed to Little Good One, the people of the Upper Meng Tribe, out of consideration for its wounds, simply fed it directly to its mouth.
Jian Mo observed for a while and found that the little Heqin baby was sometimes quite naughty and would deliberately splash water on people.
At this time of year, Little Good One would use her fins to hit the baby fish.
After repeating this several times, Heqin became well-behaved.
The people of the Upper Meng Tribe quickly noticed that Jian Mo had come to see what was going on, and greeted him warmly, "Doctor Jian Mo."
Jian Mo smiled and said, "You guys came so early to feed the Little Good Ones?"
The people of the Upper Meng Tribe, "Yes, Little Good One used up too much energy yesterday, so we should give it some to replenish its strength. The two little Heqin also get hungry quickly, so we'll feed them more."
Jian Mo: "Let me check Little Good One's wound."
The people from the Upper Meng Tribe made way for Jian Mo and gave him a thumbs up. "We just checked on him too, Little Good One is recovering very well. Doctor Jian Mo, your skills are truly excellent."
After examining her, Jian Mo smiled and said, "It's mainly because Little Good One has a good constitution and you've fed her very well, which is why Little Good One recovered so quickly."
The people of the Upper Meng Tribe were even happier after hearing this. "Then we'll continue feeding it like this. By the way, Doctor Jian Mo, would you like to raise Heqin?"
Jian Mo looked up, puzzled. "Hmm?"
The people of the Upper Meng Tribe said, "This time, Little Good One gave birth to two Heqin. Our chieftain said that if you want one, he can give you one."
Jian Mo looked down at the baby Heqin swimming happily in the river and felt a little tempted.
The Heqin Fish looks so much like a finless porpoise; it's beautiful and cute, and seems to have a very good temperament.
It would be wonderful to raise one.
However, the thought flashed through Jian Mo's mind, and he quickly came to his senses, reluctantly refusing, "Forget it, our tribe doesn't have any particularly large rivers, and it would be too much trouble to maintain Heqin."
The river outside the Riverside Tribe is quite wide but not deep. If the Heqin can grow so big, the river next to the Riverside Tribe certainly couldn't support it.
As for raising livestock elsewhere, they currently have no intention of leaving the Riverside Tribe.
As the chieftain of the Riverside Tribe, Wu Jiong would certainly stand with the tribe through thick and thin.
They live in the Riverside Tribe and entrust other tribes to raise Heqin —it's possible, but unnecessary.
Jian Mo had thought it through and shook her head regretfully, "I'll come visit you when I have time, and play with Little Good One and the others."
