Discussing The Correct Posture To Enjoy Dog Food

Translated by Hua Li ^_~

On the tenth day after the bonding of Gou Liang and Meng Hao, the white moon completely swallowed the last trace of impurity, shining as pure as jade and cold as snow.

The white leaf used for contraception had also reached its maturity for harvesting.

“Will you be able to pick me up tonight?”

Gou Liang lay on Meng Hao’s back, watching him pack his bags with dried meat.

As long as the female partner still had the possibility of reproduction, the males had to go collect the white leaves for the Red Moon Season, while the females left behind would be taken care of by the priests to prevent any accidents.

Originally, this had nothing to do with Meng Hao.

But he had no intention of revealing the fact that Gou Liang had no reaction to the pregnancy stone, so this trip was necessary.

Looking at the reluctance in Gou Liang’s eyes, Meng Hao turned around and kissed his cheek, saying, “Based on the previous experience, if everything goes smoothly, we’ll be back the same day and at most, it won’t take more than three days. If you end up staying at the priest’s place, remember to keep the red rock close to you and don’t kick the blanket at night, okay?”

Gou Liang nodded and jumped onto Meng Hao’s back, wrapping himself around him, indicating his agreement.

Meng Hao loved having him close, so he continued to talk to him while packing his things, until they heard the urgent shouts of the tribe leader from outside, prompting them to hurry.

“Xier!”

The big white wolf was very eye-catching. As soon as Ga’er saw it, he wanted to find his son, whom he had not seen since the contract was formed.

The wolf male pulled him back and let out a low growl.

I don’t see my son reluctant to part with Meng Hao. You should say goodbye to me at least.

Ga’er couldn’t understand the language of animals, but after years of bonding, he could tell what Xiong was thinking just by looking at his expression. He scolded him and didn’t bother disturbing the newlyweds.

Meng Hao said, “Xier’s father is here too. I won’t be back, so you sleep with him tonight, so you won’t be without a blanket.”

“I know,” Gou Liang kissed his nose and said with a smile, “You also be careful, if you dare get hurt, I’ll bite you to death.”

Meng Hao’s icy blue eyes were filled with warmth, and he nuzzled Gou Liang’s face to show that he would be obedient.

Once everyone gathered, the females watched them leave and then turned to their friends, with whom they hadn’t been able to spend time with for several days, and started chatting excitedly. The collection of white leaves, although dangerous, had a very low accident rate, so the females didn’t have much attachment to their mates.

Ga’er brought Gou Liang aside and asked him about the details of his married life.

“Is Meng Hao treating you well?”

“Does Meng Hao cook for you?”

“Is that kid Meng Hao bothering you for mating, not caring if you’re tired?”

“Is the house warm? Is there anything missing?”

With these questions, Ga’er’s fatherly concern was evident.

In fact, anyone could see that Gou Liang was being well taken care of, whether it was his rosy complexion, radiant spirit, or the sweet smile on his face. However, hearing it directly from Xier made him feel even more assured.

After taking care of him, Ga’er went to help arrange food and lodging for the females at the priest’s place.

Once he left, Gou Liang was left alone.

The original host had poor relations within the tribe. Although everyone knew that he had lost his memory twice and had a better temperament now, he had spent the entire Red Moon Season “recovering at the priest’s place” and had never participated in any group activities. So, he still had little connection with the females. Now, he suddenly looked better than before, and had bonded with Meng Hao, and they had learned about Meng Hao’s wealth and excellent combat abilities, which raised some doubts among the young females.

At this point, they gathered in groups and couldn’t help but gossip about him.

One said that Gou Liang was the mate of a white beast person, and they didn’t dare to approach him to avoid bringing bad luck to themselves and their families. Another said that Gou Liang had originally been with Meng Hui, but Meng Hui refused to marry him after he got injured and almost died, so now that Meng Hui was better, his brother had taken over and was playing around between the two of them. It was really indecent…

They thought they were speaking privately, but how could they escape Gou Liang’s “watchful eye”?

However, these people were just talking big and didn’t provoke him, so he couldn’t be bothered to pay attention to them.

On the other hand, Yue Jin, who was the center of attention, actively approached to chat.

“Lang Xi, long time no see.”

“Hasn’t been that long, do you need something from me?”

Gou Liang looked at Yue Jin, and he had already seen from the system monitor that Yue Jin had chosen Azan of the Winged Tiger tribe, and that person was deeply infatuated with him, so Yue Jin’s life seemed to be going very well.

Yue Jin smiled and, seeing that Gou Liang wasn’t interested in talking, he got straight to the point, “I know that Meng Hao has collected a lot of herbs and fruits, so I wanted to ask if there are any red grapes? If so, I can exchange anything for them.”

Red grapes, which were abundant in spring, had the effect of aiding in pregnancy. However, Meng Hao would never prepare such a thing to cause trouble for Gou Liang.

Seeing him shake his head, Yue Jin sighed and rubbed his belly, looking worried.

Gou Liang had no feelings for this person and when he saw the lovable look on his eyebrows, he didn’t even think of comforting him. Their thoughts were different, and they remained silent for a while.

It wasn’t until Sang Mi ran over to play with Gou Liang that the silence was broken.

Once the priests arranged for the females to have their meals, Gou Liang, using the system’s monitoring function, followed the big blind spot arriving at their destination.

“Be careful, the White Sable Beast is nearby, don’t make any noise to alert them. We’ll try to lead it away according to the original plan.”

From a distance, the wolf leader signaled for everyone to stop.

The ice and snow obstructed the vision of the beast people and reduced their sensitive sense of smell, making it very dangerous to travel during the White Moon Season.

Beside the white cotyledons, there would often be White Sable Beast creatures that coexisted with them. These unique creatures were petite, only about the size of a winged wolf’s paw, and blended seamlessly with the ice and snow, making them difficult to detect. The challenge in dealing with White Sable Beasts lay in their incredible speed and the fact that their claws and fangs contained deadly toxins. If one were unlucky enough to be bitten, not even the priests could guarantee their survival.

So, even though Lang Xiong had been leading teams to collect white leaves for many years, he still didn’t dare to let his guard down.

Several beast people responsible for luring the White Sable Beasts took out a powder made from grinding the roots of the white cotyledons. They scattered it into the distance, and soon, a White Sable Beast creature shook off the snow covering it and excitedly chased after the direction of the white leaf powder.

When they saw that no more White Sable Beasts were coming out and were about to start collecting, Lang Xiong stopped them: “ Wait a minute”. The orcs waited patiently and after a while, another white sable beast came from the ground and ran.

Lang Xiong breathed a sigh of relief and was about to let the collected orcs take action when he suddenly heard Meng Hao shout, “Chief, there are ambushing beast people!”

Indeed, a group of black rhinoceros beast people had charged down from another direction, heading straight for the white cotyledon grove they had worked so hard to lure the White Sable Beasts away from, with the intention of reaping the rewards without contributing.

The wolf leader was furious and roared, leading his people to confront them.

“Chief Niu, what is the meaning of this?”

Lang Xiong held back his anger and questioned.

Chief Niu and his people weren’t afraid of a direct confrontation. Instead, they replied with a mocking tone, “Oh, isn’t this Chief Xiong of the Wolfclan? You’re here to collect white leaves too, how coincidental. However, this area was discovered by our Burei tribe first, so you should find another place.”

“Shameless! This place was clearly discovered by us! We also lured the White Sable Beasts away!” a young beast person couldn’t hold back and shouted.

The chief of the Burei Tribe sneered, “The blessing of the Beast God has allowed our tribe to find a white leaf grove without White Sable Beasts. Do you want to dispute it? Are you showing disrespect to the Beast God? What are you all waiting for? The blessings of the Beast God must be collected promptly.”

“Who dares! Everyone stop them! If they dare to pick a leaf, break their hands!”

The young beast person shouted again.

Lang Xiong didn’t stop them either and coldly looked at Chief Niu, “The blessing of the Beast God? I heard that as soon as the Red Moon Season ends, the Burei clan is struck with the wrath of the Beast God because of your son’s violation of the oath to the Beast God, causing his two hands to be severed, turning him into a useless orc. Now, you are deceiving others in the name of the Beast God. Are you not afraid that the Beast God will once again unleash his wrath?”

Chief Niu was not afraid, as the Beast God was already in a deep slumber and couldn’t possibly hear his words to punish him.

Therefore, he spoke confidently, “Chief Xiong, there’s no need to argue. I see the White Sable Beasts are coming back, so if you want to fight here, we’re not afraid of you. In the end, no one will get the white leaves.”

Rhinoceros beast people have thick hides, and it was difficult for the White Sable Beast creatures to harm them with a single scratch or bite. The probability of being poisoned was very low, making the Wolf clan suffer more.

“Despicable—”

The newly bonded members of the Wolfclan were about to curse, but suddenly, there was another disturbance in the ice and snow. The rhinoceros beast person nearest to them yelled, “White Sable Beast! Chief, it’s the White Sable Beast!”

The wolf leader was alarmed, “Not good! There are still White Sable Beasts that haven’t been lured away! Get out of here!”

The winged orcs such as the Winged Wolf and the Winged Tiger immediately spread their wings, pulled up their wingless companions, and flew away quickly, without being caught. Those who pulled up also fled as fast as possible, while the Burei tribe did not dare to stay long and fled one after another.

A wolf beastman saw a huge “white sable beast” shaking off the ice and snow, stood up, and started collecting white cotyledons as quickly as possible.

It’s Meng Hao!

The wolf male suppressed the joy in his heart and shouted, “There is one more white sable beast, leave quickly!”

He whined and waved his wings desperately.The other beast people, getting his hint, quickly created the illusion of a rapid departure by flapping their wings with all their might. In the midst of the wind and snow, the black-brown rhinoceros beast people had disappeared.

Lang Xiong was overjoyed, “Quick, while the White Sable Beasts haven’t returned yet, collect the leaves faster!”

Once they landed on the ground, a young beast person laughed and bumped into Meng Hao.

“Well done, Hao-ge!”

“No time for talk, collect as fast as you can.”

The beast people immediately got to work, using their claws to scatter the snow and pull up the white leaves by the roots.

Gou Liang couldn’t help but chuckle, secretly applauding Meng Hao’s cleverness.

As a white beast person with fur similar to that of the White Sable Beasts, he could easily scare these beast people by making some noise in the snow. With the wolf leader’s cooperation, they easily drove away the annoying rhinoceros beast people.

However, the Burei clan was not entirely foolish. Soon, someone noticed that they had been fooled.

“Chief, it must be that white beast person!”

A gray rhinoceros beast person said.

Chief Niu’s eyes flashed with a sinister look. Despite his son having his hands severed by the Beast God’s wrath for breaking his oath, he had never forgotten the humiliation that the Wolf clan’s white beast person had inflicted upon his son and the Burei clan.

Now, being deceived by them once again, how could Chief Niu tolerate it?

“…Go lure the White Sable Beast back.”

Chief Niu said maliciously.

Gou Liang furrowed his brows.

On the other hand, the beast people of the Wolf clan had already collected most of the leaves and were in high spirits. However, when they were about to celebrate, Meng Hao suddenly shouted, “Danger, evacuate!”

The wolf leader was shocked, “Listen to Meng Hao, let’s go!”

But it was already too late.

The White Sable Beasts, drawn back by the scent of the white leaf root powder, saw the intruders and immediately launched an attack.

“Run! Quickly retreat!”

The wolf leader yelled.

The majority of the Wolf Tribe escaped with the help of their winged companions. However, some were left behind, and Wolf Clan leader, Lang Xiong, stayed behind to buy them time to escape.

The aggressive white minks were fast and attacked the intruders with incredible speed, and Lang Xiong and the other members of his tribe struggled to evade them.

Meng Hao, who was initially at the front, realized the danger and quickly transferred two of the Wolf Tribe members on his back, who he told to transform into their human form and threw them onto the back of a brown winged wolf. Then, he dove downward to evacuate.

He flapped his wings and flew away with a white sable beast that was biting fiercely towards a wolf male.

Meng Hao shouted, “Wingless Beastfolk, transform into human form. Those with wings, take as many with you as you can! Hurry, let’s get out of here!”

Beastfolk in their animal forms were large and heavy, and each tribe member could only carry one companion. However, they couldn’t risk frostbite, so they had no choice but to transform back into their human forms, despite the urgency of the situation.

Meng Hao and Lang Xiong attempted to hold off the white minks, but some Beastfolk were still injured during their escape.

By the time they returned to their tribe, more than ten Beastfolk were either frostbitten or wounded by the white sable beasts.

Frostbite was manageable, but three Beastfolk had been bitten by the beasts and were in critical condition. The elderly priest tried his best with herbal remedies, and even though he called upon the blessings of the White Moon Season, only one of the injured Beastfolk, who had suffered a less severe bite, was barely saved. The other two couldn’t hold on and returned to the embrace of the Beast God.

The two grieving females, who had lost their mates, were devastated. One of them, a female named Hong Ya, confronted Meng Hao, saying, “White Beastman, and your tribe’s warriors, every time you act together with the tribe, disaster follows. You know it, so why did you follow us this time? You’ve already caused the death of a Fox beastman, and now you’ve caused the death of a Tiger beastman. Why?”

“What are you saying!”

Gou Liang frowned.

Lang Xiong, furious, said, “Hong Ya, be quiet. This time, if it weren’t for Meng Hao, we would have lost many more warriors. He saved us, and I won’t allow anyone to insult the tribe’s hero.”

“It’s him! It’s always him bringing misfortune! You know that, yet you still allow him to stay with the tribe. You’ll only bring more misfortune. Get out of the tribe!”

“I remember you,” Gou Liang walked out after being blocked by Meng Hao, “It was you who injured me before. Sang mi said that you injured me because your mate died, and you were grieving, which caused you to accidentally hurt me. Now, your mate has died again. Who’s bringing misfortune to whom?”

Lang Xiong scolded: “Xiaoxi!”

Hong Ya yelled, “You are talking nonsense! What does it have to do with me? It’s this white orc. Everytime he acts with the tribe, disaster will happen—”

“Hong Ya, enough!” Yue Jin reprimanded.

Hong Ya, who was overly sad, ignored Yue Jin’s obstruction and wanted to discuss an explanation with Meng Hao. An orc from the Winged Tiger tribe said: “Chief, when we received the retreat signal, we walked back and saw the orcs from the Burei tribe. They must have lured the White Sable Beast back.”

He was one of the orcs responsible for luring the White Sable beast away, and the others also agreed.

Lang Xiong’s face was ugly, “Damn the rhinoceros orcs!”

He told the public about the process of collecting white cotyledon, and the people of the Wolf tribe were filled with outrage at the Burei tribe’s shamelessness.

After saying that, Lang Xiong gave the old priest a look, and the latter understood.

The members of the Moon Fox Tribe also frowned and looked disapprovingly at Hong Ya.

The elderly priest explained, “Hong Ya, you’ve heard everything. The casualties this time were the result of a conspiracy by the Burei Tribe. It has nothing to do with Meng Hao. On the contrary, he saved more of our companions. Don’t worry; after the White Moon Season, we will seek justice from the Burei Tribe and make sure no warrior sacrifices are in vain. But I also hope you will apologize to Meng Hao.”

“Why didn’t he save DaHu then? Why?” Hong Ya was still distraught.

“Hong Ya!”

Yue Jin was completely disappointed with him.

The members of the Moon Fox Tribe also frowned and looked disapprovingly at Hong Ya.

The elderly priest’s face darkened and he sternly said,”The injured companions, along with their families, will stay with me until they recover. The rest of you can leave now. As for the two widowed females… If you both agree, you can leave together. If not, you can stay here for the time being.”

As he spoke, the old priest looked at the unmarried adult orcs present.

It is impossible for the female and his cubs to live alone during the white rose season. It is for this reason that Hongya chooses a new partner.

But no one thought that the other party would die while collecting white cotyledons.

The female of the other sacrificed orc was soon proposed by several orcs. The female was unable to raise his own cubs, so he chose the youngest and strongest among them.

But no one cares about Hong Ya.

However, the unmarried males of the Wolf tribe were completely disgusted with Hong Ya, and they all lowered their heads when the old priest looked over. Hongya finally thought of the pros and cons, cried and looked at the others, and saw that they all disliked him and couldn’t help but feel regretful and resentful.

Finally, at Yue Jin’s signal, the orcs from the Moon Fox Clan took back Hong Ya and his cub.

Before leaving, Gou Liang kicked Hong Ya’s new companion with all his might.

He used all his strength with this kick, but the orc was unprepared and was kicked on the knee by him and fell. The kneecap hit the ground with a violent sound, and his handsome face was distorted in pain.

But since he couldn’t fight with the female, the Moon Fox orc could only look at Gou Liang with an ugly expression. Meng Hao took Gou Liang back to him and looked at him warningly, forcing him to look away.

Hong Ya, who was holding the cub, said angrily: “What are you doing?”

The orcs from the Moon Fox Clan and other orcs who had not left stopped one after another.

“Isn’t he your partner now? You scolded my partner. I can’t hit you, so why can’t I hit him?”

Gou Liang sneered and said, “I hold grudges very much. Don’t let me see you or him in the future. I’ll beat your partner every time you see him! It’s best not to appear in front of Meng Hao, otherwise he won’t die again and blame it on my Meng Hao.”

“You!”

“This orc from the Moon Fox Clan, Good luck, be careful when you go out in the future, you might get struck by lightning.”

“You!!”

Hongya put down the cub and was about to take action, but was caught by his new partner, “Sorry, it’s our fault. ”

After apologizing, he forcefully dragged Hong Ya away. Unexpectedly, as soon as he left the priest’s door, a thunderbolt fell and landed in front of Hong Ya’s toes. He was so frightened that his eyes opened and he suddenly fainted. Behind him, his cub burst into tears, and the Moon Fox clan members were too frightened to approach Hongya. However, his new partner froze in place, picking him up with an ugly expression on his face. Every step he took was a struggle, and cold sweat covered his face. When he returned home, he put Hong Ya far away from him, unwilling to get close to her.

Gou Liang returned home with a satisfied smile on his face. Meng Hao was excited and threw him onto the bed.

“I did a great job, didn’t I?”

Gou Liang said with pride.

Meng Hao kissed his eyes and nodded in agreement, adding, “Very impressive.”

Gou Liang cradled Meng Hao’s face and planted several affectionate kisses. “Don’t worry. I will protect you and make sure no one bullies you again.”

Meng Hao looked at him with surprise, then gazed into his eyes and slowly broke into a smile.
