The next day, Mrs. Hu and her family went to dig potatoes on the mountain again. They had to transport them seven or eight times in total before they almost finished digging potatoes on the mountain.
There are also some fruits that are different in length, long, pink, and taste sweeter than the round ones.
With these fruits, their food reserves are more sufficient. Mrs. Hu is not so strict with the children and allows them to go out and play for a while during the day.
Hu Ling'er has been in this world for so long, and the scope of his contact has finally begun to broaden.
Hushan originally wanted to carry his sister on his back, but now that she has grown older, she no longer wants to stay on Hushan's shoulder. She prefers to enjoy the freedom of running.
I don’t know if it’s because of the good food, but Hu Ling’er’s physical condition is particularly good.
Some Zaizai her age are not as tall as her.
In addition, the animal form of a tiger cub is inherently more powerful than the animal form of other cubs. Many cubs feel that this little spirit of the Tiger family is not easy to mess with.
Of course, this is also due to her six brothers.
No matter where she goes, her six brothers are always at her side. Anyone who takes a second look will be stared back.
In group fights, the tiger cubs are not afraid of anyone.
Of course, this does not include the children of the Xiong family.
There are a total of eight cubs in the house of Boss Bear and Boss Bear, and all eight of them have transformed into human forms. Each of them is tall and powerful, and seems to have endless strength.
Hu Fu and Xiong Yi have been evenly matched since childhood.
After I had my younger brother, I took him to fight in groups.
But later, the Xiong family gave birth to two male cubs in succession, surpassing the Hu family in number. In addition, Hushan had not yet transformed, Hufu and the others were gradually at a disadvantage.
Xiong Yi Xiong Er and the others got an advantage and acted obediently. They kept teasing Hushan about his failure to transform. Therefore, a battle for reputation was always inevitable.
But in the previous few battles, the Hu brothers suffered losses.
Although the adult orcs don't care about the children's playfulness, when they see the children always being injured, the tiger lady will inevitably nag them a few words.
Hufu felt very embarrassed.
…
Since their sister was born, their attention has been attracted to her and they rarely go out to play, so they fight less.
But those members of the Xiong family are always ready to make a move.
When they saw the brothers from the Hu family that day, the Xiong brothers started to provoke them again.
"I said, Hushan, why haven't you transformed yet? You can't transform, right? Hahahahaha." The bear laughed and threw a stone at Hushan.
This is the beginning of every provocation they have.
Hushan would be enraged every time and would pounce on him, thus starting a melee between the two sides.
The Xiong family's eight versus the Hu's family's five and a half (only half counts against Hushan), there is always a chance of winning.
Now if we barely count Hu Ling'er as half, they are still eight to six, no problem at all.
But this time Hushan behaved very strangely. He was not angered.
Instead, he avoided the stone and had no intention of paying attention to them.
"How dare you ignore my brother!" Xiong Er threw another stone at them.
The stone hit Hu Ling'er straight at Hu Ling'er. Just as Hu Ling'er was about to dodge, her second brother Hu Dong blocked her in front and received a blow on her body.
"Don't be childish." Xiaosan Huhai said.
"We've been fighting for so long, don't you just rely on your numbers? If you can, send five of us out, and we'll be five against five."
The Xiong brothers looked at each other and burst into laughter: "Why do we have to go five against five? There are obviously so many of us, but we just want to go all in. Hahaha!"
"Just being able to fight doesn't mean anything. Why don't we compete with something else?" Hufu said.
With Hu Ling'er present, the brothers really didn't want to fight.
On the one hand, I was afraid that if I accidentally hurt my sister, I would be beaten when I got home.
On the other hand, I am also afraid that if I lose the fight, my nose will be bruised and my face will be swollen, and I will be embarrassed in front of my sister.
Xiong Yi said in a contemptuous tone: "Compete with what? We will never lose in any competition."
"How about we compete to see who can dig more salt mud in the back mountain?" Hu Hai suggested.
"In this case, you can all eight of you and not waste any of them. In addition, after completing the bet, you can also help the family with work. It is much more interesting than just fighting."
After hearing this, the Xiong brothers got together to discuss it.
Helping with household chores really impressed them.
Originally, the adults in the family told them to take some time to dig out salt mud recently.
Besides, digging salt mud is a technical job, and Hu Shan and Hu Ling'er can't go there without transforming, so they are still equivalent to eight versus six.
For such a ratio, they are still very confident that they can win.
"Then what's the bet?" Xiong San asked the other party, akimbo.
"Whoever loses will stand on his head and eat shit!" Hu Nan said.
"What?" Everyone present was shocked!
The other brothers of the Hu family all looked at Hu Nan.
Is this brother crazy?
Hu Hai also had a headache.
Originally, when he proposed this competition, he was not sure of winning. If he lost, it would be no big deal to send one person to get beaten.
But standing upside down and eating shit is a bit too much.
"Okay, then it's settled! Hahahaha!" After the eight Xiong brothers reacted, they laughed even louder.
"I never thought you could play like this! Keep your word!"
None of the brothers in the Hu family wanted to care about Hu Nan.
After Hu Ling'er heard this, a string of garbled words flew through his mind. This brother is so brave. If he loses, will he really eat shit?
She doesn’t want to eat it, and she won’t eat it even to death!
If you want to gamble on something else, such as hunting or something, Hu Ling'er can help a little, but getting salt and soil is a bit helpless.
However, she planned to wait and see what happened and see if there was any place where she could get involved.
She had never been to the place where the salt mud was. Hu Shan was afraid that the road would be difficult, so he forced Hu Ling'er to climb onto her shoulders.
After climbing over a hill and passing through a forest, they finally reached an open area in the mountains.
Hushan told her that this place was originally a pool.
It is a pool where spring water from the mountain flows down and gathers below.
Later, for some unknown reason, the mountain spring water stopped flowing and the pool slowly dried up, gradually turning it into the swamp it is now.
The old patriarch Hu Xiao discovered by chance that the mud in this quagmire had a salty taste and could be used as a substitute for salt.
"We have to go there where the mud can be used."
Hu Fu pointed to the middle of the swamp. This chapter has been completed!
