Chapter 75 The Wolf Clan Arrives
Chapter 75 The Wolf Clan Arrives
The next day, as expected, heavy snow fell.
When the cave door was opened in the morning, the howling wind made it impossible for the little beastmen to open their eyes.
Sen and Yu, no matter how bad the weather was, had to go out to check on the situation. Meanwhile, the little beastmen, because of the cold weather, all hid on the earthen bed and refused to get down.
Who wants to go down into the cold wind when there's warmth?
After walking around the valley and finding nothing unusual, Sen and Yu prepared to return to the cave.
On their way back, they suddenly heard the howling of wolves carried on the wind.
"Awoo! Awoo awoo!..."
After listening carefully, Yu confirmed that it was the wolf pack that had helped them before. So he transformed into his original form and flew to the entrance of the valley to check the news.
Sen swam back to the cave and told Zhi and Ruan Mianmian that the wolf clan had come to visit, and that it was in this snowy weather.
Ruan Mianmian said in surprise, "With such heavy snow, why would they come?"
Sen shook his head, indicating he didn't know, but he guessed it might be something important.
Zhi frowned and said worriedly, "Could something have happened?"
Sen comforted her, "Don't worry, you'll know when Yu comes back."
When Yu Fei arrived at the entrance of the valley, the wolf pack did not enter the valley. They were just howling at the valley entrance, indicating that they had arrived and hoped that someone from the tribe would come out to greet them.
This also shows that they are friends, not invaders.
Yu Fei arrived and saw Jin, whom he had gone with to deal with the wandering orcs last time.
The reason I got to know Jin was because when he slapped that bear-beastman, the bear-beastman tried to retaliate and bite him.
It was this guy who ran over and bit the bear-man's claw, giving him a chance to recover, and that's how the two met.
"Come in, what brings you here?"
Yu Fei came down and asked Jin curiously, thinking that something had happened to the wolf clan.
"Here's the thing, our wolf king wanted to thank the female who helped us before, so he asked us to send over two sheep. As you know, we have a lot of sheep in our territory. Also, we wanted to ask your tribe's high shaman to divine the recent weather. This year's climate has been a bit abnormal, and our wolf king is a little worried. Winter is the time for the cubs to be born, and if we're not prepared properly, there could be big problems."
When Yu heard that the Wolf King had sent people to thank them, and that they had even brought along a sheep beast, he was overjoyed and immediately led them into the valley.
Upon learning that a high shaman was still needed to perform divination, Yu led the wolf clan's envoys toward the cave without hesitation.
When Zhi heard Sen return saying that werewolves had come to visit, he already guessed that Zhi might need to perform divination.
So he first returned to the stone chamber, organized all the items used for divination and carried them with him, and then sat quietly in the cave waiting for the wolf clan to arrive.
As the wolf pack continued their journey, they were about to reach the cave when they sensed a mysterious aura emanating from it, though they couldn't quite describe what that mystery was.
Finally, they arrived at the entrance of the cave, and the sight before them astonished them.
It was a wall I had never seen before, and a tightly closed gate.
All of this was unfamiliar and novel to the wolf pack.
Just then, Ruan Mianmian and Zhi slowly walked out of the cave.
The wolf clan members quickly concealed their surprise and respectfully bowed to Ruan Mianmian to show their respect.
"Greetings, Chieftain of the Eastern Tribe. We have been sent by the Wolf King to thank you for your previous treatment. The Wolf King also asked us to bring several sheep as a gift to express our gratitude. Also, regarding your request to perform divination for us three times, the recent drastic weather changes have made the Wolf King worried about the abnormal weather this year, so he hopes that the High Priest of the Eastern Tribe can perform divination for us to see the outcome."
"Please thank the Wolf King for me," Ruan Mianmian said with a smile. "I appreciate the Wolf King's kindness. As for divination, let's go into the cave and have our great shaman perform a divination for you."
After saying that, he welcomed several wolf-like orcs into the cave.
Upon entering the cave, a warm atmosphere greeted them, causing the wolf-orc who had been walking in the cold wind for a long time to breathe a sigh of relief. It was so comfortable.
How can this cave be so warm!
After walking a few steps, they saw the group of small orcs against the wall. They were lying on a mound of earth made of some unknown material, and it felt unusually warm.
The little beastmen really know how to enjoy themselves.
Sensing the arrival of unfamiliar orcs in the cave, the little orcs stood up and glared at them.
Yu told them that they had come to thank their tribe's chief and that they were friends.
Only then did the little beastmen quietly lie down.
After finding a campfire to sit down, Ruan Mianmian indicated that the divination could begin.
Zhi nodded, took out his tools, and began to perform divination.
His movements were practiced and fluid, as if he had performed this ritual countless times. The wolf people watched silently, their hearts filled with anticipation.
Soon, Zhi raised his head, a glint in his eyes. "There will indeed be unusual weather in the near future, and the blizzard will come earlier than usual. After today's snowfall, it won't snow for the next two weeks, but the weather will suddenly turn extremely cold. However, Wolf King, don't worry too much. As long as you take precautions, it shouldn't have too much of an impact. By the way, I advise you to prepare more food, because you might not be able to leave the house for the last month of winter."
Upon hearing this, the wolf pack members finally felt relieved.
They deeply believed in the power of divination. The Wolf King had also vaguely sensed something unusual about the past few years. Today's sudden snowfall made him worry about this winter, which led to their trip to the Eastern Tribe.
They expressed their gratitude to Zhi and invited him and Ruan Mianmian to visit the Wolf Clan when they had time.
Afterwards, they bid farewell to the Eastern tribe and returned to their homeland with full hope and confidence.
