The Upcoming Mu's Settlement (2)

"Fengbu is back! Master, Fengbu came back! He's at the dining square now." Luoyi came over reported about their return. This time, they return with multiple sacks of excellent products.

Especially clothing, because the grassland where Ka-Ruo open their settlement is located near to spot prosperous with stringy vines. That area with plants is one of their most important section, which covers one of the two industries open in Ka-Ruo Settlement.

As for the other industry, is beast skin.

The grassland is always known for its marvelous fertility and abundant source of resources. This gave the non-human tribe a chance to grow stronger. One of the best examples is the Grass Bear tribe, where it currently led by the Stone Claw Bear.

Other than that, there's Shadow Hound tribe, Lightning Bear tribe, Moon Fox tribe, and known as the strongest in the grassland, the Iron Skin Boar Tribe. A few of their evolved counterpart is also known as half-bovine hybrid or the name human used to call them.

[Orc]

Orcs in this world are different from the fairy tales Mu Qing Lang heard or creation from a fantasy. In language-wise, they're much better known as "Green Demon" by the people from Ka-Ruo Settlement.

Comes in 2 meters tall in height, muscular and two upward protruding fangs, the Orcs in this world is said to be one of the five most dangerous creatures. Even disturbing about the orcs is their ability to create and wield weaponry.

They're all born weapon master, having the natural talents in using and wielding all kind of middle to heavy tools. The orcs often found building their homes near mines, often rich in metal and woods.

The trade this time increases the number of weapons available in Mu's Camp is enough to arms everyone with one. Other than that, the clothing available is enough for everyone to have a spare. To compensate for the goblin's smaller stature, Fengbu exchanged some of them with the children's size, but still proper in quality.

Other than that, Fengbu returned with another type of plant. It is most probably the last of the three kinds of staple foods he's been searching for. He doesn't even need to see them clearly to know what it is.

"Potato..." Mu Qing Lang smiled. The third dietary food supplement is actually potatoes. If he's smart enough, he should found this plant long ago.

The reason he doesn't can be answered with two simple answers.

First, the Mu's Camp lack of proper tools to search for this kind of plant. Their attention is focused on the obvious Xian-Ren Grass, Demonic Juniper Flower, and Chang Empress Poppy, which has their own distinctive features in their maturity.

As for the Amber Root, this plant pops out from the ground like a bamboo shoot when they're good to harvest. Therefore, digging for the roots can be said as nonexistent. Lastly, the Prairie Herbal Cress releases a scent at their maturity, which compensated for their lack of appearance.

"Hahaha! Good job, Fengbu. Let me know what you want as your rewards. I'll try my best to make it up for you." Mu Qing Lang praised him for his excellent work and prepared to reward him.

"Fengbu indeed has a request. Hope the master can allow Fengbu to be reckless once." he immediately kneeled.

"Stand up. Tell me, what do you want?" Mu Qing Lang heart aches to watch. To make sure his wish is fulfilled, he even kneels without a hint of hesitation.

"Fengbu hope the master willing to marry Luoli to me!" it was a bomb. A powerful one on top of that.

"You brat! How old are you? Not even finish growing your pubic hair already dare to ask for a girl's marriage." Mu Qing Lang wanted to scold him. But in the end, he controlled himself from doing so.

"Luoli, do you agree with it? If you're willing to, I will immediately accomplish your wish." he turned to Luoli and asked for her opinion. And at this moment, Mu Qing Lang's heart is completely crushed.

"I agreed! I am her woman already." Luoli's answer made Mu Qing Lang spits a mouthful of blood in his mind. Never in his wildest imagination that Luoli had already been eaten by this Fengbu brat.

"Alright... What's the custom of marriage in your Ka-Ruo Settlement?" Mu Qing Lang agreed with their request. To make sure he did not follow the wrong custom for their marriage, he could only ask.

"It's easy. Master needs to bless the couple with something to solidify their marriage. After that, you'll have to provide the couple with a hut as their marriage chamber." Luoyi answered. As a brat that already in love with Ka-Ba, it wasn't weird for her to know about it.

"Alright. To make sure that the first marriage in our Mu's Camp is memorable, let us build this couple a proper stone house for them to stay. Luoli, I hope you will do your best to expand the Feng Family. Hahaha!" Mu Qing Lang promised to build them a proper stone house as their wedding gift.

"As for the blessing, I'll be giving you this Ashen Cloak as your marriage gift. Make sure you cherish it." he did not become stingy with his treasure and gave Fengbu the one and only cloak made from the Ashen Wolf Pelts.

"Thank you, Master!" the now announced as married couple kneeled before him to complete their marriage vow. From this second onwards, Luoli is the wife of Fengbu, the son of a merchant.

Since the evening is still far from this time, Mu Qing Lang decides that he should make a visit outside his camp. After thinking about how can he get the house for the couple ready earlier, he ordered the ten human members to follow him along with a small woven sack.

It will be used to collect the stones on their way.

Their trip out moving slowly as the group collected their stones on their way. But Mu Qing Lang's next word bring all of them to a little shame.

To make sure a task is completed early, cooperation between members is expected. It was similar to cooking a meal, where stove, fire, and bowl is equally essential.

His word works like a miracle. The ten members no longer collected for their own but started to cooperate with each other. Half of them take the position of a collector, and another half help to do the packing.

Once the picker is tired, they'll change their position. In a short twenty minutes, they collected ten full sack of stones. Mu Qing Lang ordered them to return, while he continues with his exploration. The east side of his camp is still untouched, making it more interesting.

His travel further helps him to secure another water source. Based on size alone, this pond is two times the size of their current one, with the footprints of other creatures drinking here. If he's able to domesticate all of them, it should become a good food source for his camp.

"Oh? Something new?" Mu Qing Lang's random exploration around the pond yields him another kind of plant. In total, there's going to be two additional data into his Information Table.

The view and feeling of resting by the side of this pond soothe him. Thinking about how long had it been from the time he's out to look for a stone supply, it made him think about this properly.

Did the three settlement abandon this section because they're lack of natural resources? No matter how low is the natural resources here, it is still an abundant piece of land for agriculture. Those smarter chiefs should know that agriculture is still the most vital for food supply.

Unless... There's something in this land that made the three chiefs abandon it? Ashen Wolf tribe?

Mu Qing Lang started to catch up with the knowledge of the three worlds. He still thinks that they are a fool to leave this section of prairie untouched, but now, it wasn't as positive as he thought.

There's a reason why they abandon this place.

...

...

...

"AOU!" a beautiful 2.5 meters long Ashen Wolf howled for attention. Below where it stands is a no longer a pack, but an entire tribe of Ashen Wolves gathered from that summons. Their number is still increasing, with more Ashen Wolves coming from every direction.

Indeed, it was an Ashen Wolf King. Mu Qing Lang did not guess wrongly about why the three chiefs abandon this section.

After laying low and increasing their numbers for some time, the Ashen Wolf Tribe finally gathered a total of a thousand wolves once more. And this time, it will be even more destructive with the existence of not only the Ashen Wolf King but alongside with five unique evolution wolves.

[Prairie Black Wolf]

This is their evolution name, but a long time ago, during the Chang Emperor's reign, they're called differently as;

Prairie's Royal Slaughterer!
