Brown Fart Beasts

Jian Mo was surprised that he didn't know this herb existed in the tribe.

Ye Luo explained, "We didn't think you really wanted to become a sub-beastman, so we didn't mention it."

Jian Mo stroked her fluffy cat ears. "Really?"

Ye Luo: "Yes, the clan leader also told us not to mention it, saying we shouldn't put pressure on you."

Jian Mo was deeply moved. Despite being an "outcast," he felt no sense of being an outcast at all. Wu Jiong and the people in the tribe had truly taken care of him silently behind the scenes.

Jian Mo smiled and said, "I understand. I'll give it a try. Actually, I don't really mind becoming a sub-beastman anymore."

Ye Luo looked at him and nodded. "Okay."

Chapter 164 Brown Fart Beast

The people of the Riverside Tribe all said that the herbs Di Ying brought were fine, Jian Mo cooked them and tried drinking them.

Perhaps because he was a developing sub-orc, even though he drank very little the first time, his body still reacted strongly to the medicinal soup.

After drinking the herbal decoction, he had a slight fever, felt unwell, slept poorly at night, and even experienced some muscle cramps.

Wu Jiong was very worried about this, and hugged him, massaging his cramped calves and sore lower back. "Are you feeling any better?"

Jian Mo lay lazily in Wu Jiong's arms, not wanting to move. "I feel a little better."

Wu Jiong touched his forehead with his own. "Still a low-grade fever."

Jian Mo thought for a moment, "It might be a hormonal imbalance."

Wu Jiong put his arm around him. "You've worked hard."

Jian Mo: "It's alright, I'll take a break tomorrow."

Jian Mo was well aware of his physical condition, and his physical development was quite evident during puberty.

Besides the fever, there was also an indescribable swelling and pain in the parts of the body that could transform into beasts, such as the fingertips, the tailbone, and the beast ears on the top of the head.

This should be a fairly normal physiological phenomenon.

He observed the situation for a few days and, seeing that it was relatively stable and there were no major problems, he felt somewhat relieved.

After entering her rapid growth phase, Jian Mo felt uncomfortable and also became a bit sleepy.

He no longer wants to go out; he feels drowsy all day and just wants to lie in bed and sleep.

According to his own observation, he sometimes sleeps for more than twenty hours a day, only waking up for two or three hours when eating and playing with the Jiujiu.

The orcs from the tribe came to see him in a group.

Qing Kuo comforted him, saying, "This is quite normal. I think you're probably a feline sub-beastman. Feline sub-beastmen especially sleep a lot during their development."

Jian Mo's ears and paws clearly indicate his identity; it's common knowledge that he's a feline beastman.

Jian Mo explained, "The kittens I've seen before also sleep a lot, especially kittens in their growth stage."

Qing Kuo: "Yes, not to mention others, even our Banjiu sleeps for a long time now, sometimes even falling asleep while eating. Just get through this period, don't be too stressed."

The other orcs also comforted him.

"Jian Mo, you probably experienced a mix of your first and second puberty stages, which might make it more uncomfortable for you."

"Yes, yes, my ears and paws were the first stage of development, and my genitals were the second. Both stages were quite uncomfortable."

"When my reproductive organs were developing, I used to get fevers all the time, just like you do now."

Jian Mo was a little nervous beforehand, since there were no instruments or reagents available to check her physical condition.

Hearing everyone say that, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Although he knew it was probably a developmental issue, having someone with experience take a look did seem to help.

Jian Mo has entered a period of rapid growth, and everyone says that she should seize the opportunity to supplement her nutrition and eat more meat.

Wu Jiong has been hunting very diligently lately, going out almost every day, and he even changes the prey for Jian Mo, afraid that Jian Mo would get tired of eating the same kind of prey.

That morning, while Jian Mo and the others were having breakfast, Ban Ming's loud voice came from afar. "Jian Mo, Chieftain, good news--"

Jian Mo leaned back lazily in her chair. "What good news?"

Ban Ming: "The chieftain asked me to inquire about some unusual prey, right? This morning when I went out, I ran into people from the Yigu Tribe. They came over specifically to tell me that the Brown Fart Beast has returned and we can hunt them now."

Jian Mo: "Brown Fart Beast?"

Ban Ming enthusiastically explained, "Yes, it's a seasonal wild animal, like the Horizontal-Horned Beast. They only come to graze near our tribe in the fall. They're quite plump, but they run very fast, are quite strong, and like to graze in groups, so they're not easy to hunt."

Wu Jiong nodded. "We'll go out to hunt this kind of beast later. Call out to the others in the tribe and see how many are interested. Have those who are interested gather in the open space, and we'll go together later."

Jian Mo quickly asked, "Is there any danger?"

Wu Jiong: "For us, there's basically none."

Ban Ming: "Jian Mo, don't worry, the chieftain is very skilled; very few wild beasts can hurt him."

Jian Mo: "There are still risks. Be careful later. Fight if you can, retreat if you can't, and don't get hurt."

Wu Jiong placed the food on the table. "Okay, I understand. Eat first, then take a nap. I've already prepared lunch and it's in the pot; you can just heat it up when it's ready."

Jian Mo is currently facing a major developmental milestone, and his diet has now returned to three meals a day.

Wu Jiong hoped he would eat more and replenish his energy.

Despite eating so much, he remained very thin; apart from his slightly perky buttocks, he was even thinner overall.

Jian Mo was also helpless. He didn't expect that he could grow another 100% at this age and grow a little taller.

Now, at least when he goes out, he's no longer one of the smallest sub-orcs in the tribe.

After the two finished breakfast, Wu Jiong didn't let Jian Mo touch any water. He washed the dishes, then came over and kissed Jian Mo, telling her to go to sleep. He then took his tools and went to the open space to meet up with the other orcs.
