nBEEP! 9 points for spreading knowledge! You now have a total of 10 points!
nSu Tang quietly calculated in her heart and seemed to understand the scoring system.
nShe could get points for each new piece of knowledge she shared. No points were awarded if she shared the same information a second time with the same person.
nSu Tang beamed at everyone as she said, “We should boil water with fire before we drink it. Just keep boiling it until bubbles come out of it. But you must be careful since it will be very hot, so you need to let it cool before you drink it! Otherwise, you will get burned!”
nBEEP! 5 points for spreading knowledge! You now have a total of 15 points!
nOld Nick felt excited. When he was in Beast City, the beastmen drank boiled water. However, he had no idea why they did it!
nHence, he instantly felt enlightened when Su Tang explained it!.
nAfter joining the less civilized Winged Tiger Tribe, they did not have the conditions to allow their tribesmen to drink boiled water, so he never brought it up!
n“Su Tang, I will lend you the jar. I’ll get it now! Just give me a moment!”
nOld Nick ran back to his cave anxiously, leaving Green Fruit laughing out loud.
n“I’m Green Fruit. Yuanyuan tells me your name is Su Tang. Can I call you Tangtang too?”
nSu Tang felt overjoyed. She blinked as she smiled and said, “Certainly! Then I will call you Fruit!”
nYuanyuan laughed and said, “Tangtang, you had better call her something else. There is plenty of other beastmen named after fruits in the tribe. If you call her that, no one will know who you are calling!”
nSu Tang slightly blushed as she said shyly, “In that case, I will call you Green Fruit, okay?”
n“Certainly!”
n“Cough… Cough, cough…”
nMeng Ze suddenly coughed while he was getting overlooked by everyone.
nYuanyuan shouted in surprise. She squatted next to Meng Ze. “Ze, are you okay?”
nMeng Ze smiled weakly as he shook his head.
nYuanyuan raised her head and looked pitifully at Su Tang with her eyes red. “Tangtang, what should we do?”
nSu Tang scratched her head before turning to tell Green Fruit, “Green Fruit, can you fetch more water from the river?”
nGreen Fruit did not ask further. She merely nodded and left the cave with the leaf in hand to fill it with more water.
nSu Tang looked at her doctor’s robe before she sighed.
nShe pulled up its hem and wanted to rip a strip of fabric off.
nEven after her face flushed red, not the slightest damage was done to her robe.
nShe held onto the corner of the robe awkwardly and looked at Cain. “Can you give me a hand?”
nCain nodded. He pulled the corner of her robe effortlessly and ripped a strip off!
nSu Tang quietly gulped and labeled Cain a dangerous animal!
nDid Cain do anything wrong?
nBefore long, Green Fruit came back with fresh water.
nSu Tang waved to Yuanyuan and handed the fabric to her.
n“Dip this piece of cloth in the water and use it to wipe Meng Ze’s forehead, behind his ears, his palms, and soles. Also, wipe the blood around his wounds, but be careful not to touch it!”
nYuanyuan quickly learned under Su Tang’s guidance.
nOld Nick came back with the cleansed earthenware jar and had filled it with water.
nSu Tang said to Green Fruit, “Can you help boil the water? Old Nick and I will go out to see if there are any herbs that we can use on Meng Ze!”
