Chapter 9: Picking White Fruits

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

“Chang Xia, aren’t you going to visit the shaman at Mount Kana?” Chen Rong asked.

Chang Xia thought for a moment, then shook her head and rejected Chen Rong’s suggestion. “The shaman will come to the tribe in a few days,” she said. “We’ve just moved. Let’s stock up a little more. When the shaman comes to the tribe, I want to invite the shaman to our house.”

Chang Xia regarded the shaman as family.

Chang Xia wanted to show the shaman her best side after leaving the tribe for the first time.

It was clearly not the right time to go to Mount Kana.

“Okay, whatever you say.” Chen Rong understood what Chang Xia meant. In fact, he didn’t want to meet the shaman too early.

Soon the two of them left Salt Lake.

In a short while, they arrived at the foot of Elephant Peak Mountain.

Elephant Peak Mountain, as its name implies, resembles an elephant. White fruit trees grew at the foot of Elephant Peak Mountain.

Unlike tall, broad-leaved forests, white fruit trees were generally short and similar to bushes. The tallest white fruit trees were only a little over two meters tall. The shorter ones were about a meter tall.

In this way, even the cubs could pick white fruits.

“I knew I couldn’t go wrong coming to Elephant Peak…”

Looking at the abundant white fruit trees, Chang Xia happily slid down from Chen Rong. She neatly put the basket aside, and fist-sized white fruits hung on the branches. They were green and beautiful.

The reason it was called white fruit was because it became white after drying.

At the same time, the powdered fruit powder was also white.

“So many?” Chen Rong was surprised. “The tribe didn’t come to Elephant Peak to pick them?” White fruits wouldn’t fall even in winter unless they were picked. Apart from the beasts, only birds and some herbivores would eat them.

“Not many cubs have been born in the tribe in recent years. There are enough white fruits near the tribe. You know that not many adult beasts like to eat fruit paste…” Chang Xia shrugged and explained.

The fruit powder tasted average.

The beasts had no such condiments as sugar.

Unless it was winter, ordinary beasts would not deliberately pick white fruits.

Besides, the white fruit would not fall as long as it was not picked. This way, there would be no waste.

“Fruit paste with honey is very good,” Chen Rong said.

Chang Xia pouted and looked at Chen Rong with a hungry expression. “Honey is difficult to gather. The tribe gets a little every year. Other than leaving a little, they send the rest to Mount Kana. As for sugar, unless someone knows how to make it…”

“By sugar, do you mean sucrose?” Chen-Rong hesitated.

The bears had honey. However, very few bears were willing to trade it.

Chang Xia had never tasted any of the other sugars. She didn’t know what sucrose Chen Rong was talking about. If he was talking about Earth’s sucrose, she understood.

There were two types of sucrose: brown sugar and black sugar.

The tanning process of black sugar is complex, and its color is darker than brown sugar. At the same time, black sugar has a caramel fragrance which brown sugar didn’t have.

“What’s sucrose?” Chang Xia asked Chen Rong, tilting her head and pretending not to understand.

“It’s cane sugar made from plants,” Chen-Rong said awkwardly. Sugar came from the Westland, and the Eastland beasts didn’t seem to have mastered sugar-making. He’d eaten it before, but he didn’t know how to make it. He didn’t even recognize the plants that made it.

Chang Xia looked at Chen Rong wordlessly.

She looked like she knew nothing.

“Cane sugar. Don’t tell me it’s made from sugar from a plant called Cane?” Chang Xia pretended to guess that the sugar was mostly coarse sugar made from sugar cane.

However, he didn’t know if the sugar was brown or black.

Sugar. Besides sugarcane, it came from plants like beets, maple / eucalyptus, thatch roots, and so on. on

These could all be boiled into sugar.

Unfortunately, Chang Xia had yet to find these plants.

“Yes!” Chen-Rong nodded, thinking. “I think it’s called a sugar cane. I’m not so sure.”

“Where did you eat sugar cane?” Chang Xia asked curiously.

Chen Rong pinched the bridge of his nose and replied, “Westland.”

Hearing this, Chang Xia calmed down.

Westland—

She did not even walk out of the Twilight Forest.

It was too far.

Perhaps, one day, she would find sugar cane or something sweet in the Twilight Forest.

Sugar could also be looked forward to. For now, picking white fruits was more important. After all, this concerned their appetite in the future.

They worked as they talked and soon filled the basket they had brought.

Chang Xia estimated the weight of the white fruits in the basket. After drying them, they should weigh about 300 to 400 pounds. Unlike a normal fruit, a white fruit was the size of a fist.

Considering the bottomless appetite of the beasts, Chang Xia thought a few hundred pounds was too little.

Besides, they had not even finished picking one percent of the white fruit forest at the foot of Elephant Peak Mountain.

“Will it be enough?” Chen-Rong asked.

Chang Xia looked at the white fruit forest and shook her head. “It’s not enough. Create a few more baskets. These baskets of white fruits weigh a few hundred catties after drying. If the white fruits are ground into powder or paste, the quantity will be reduced. It’s rare for us to come over. Let’s pick some more and bring them back to the beast lair to dry.”

Actually, if he could.

Chang Xia wanted to pick all the white fruits of the white fruit trees on Elephant Peak Mountain and bring them back into the beast lair.

After the white fruit on the white fruit tree was picked, it would continue to bloom and bear fruit.

This was a cycle.

After a while, they could continue picking again.

Chang Xia hadn’t calculated the growing time of the white fruit.

However, she guessed from her instincts that she should be able to collect three to four rounds of fruits. Otherwise, Twilight Forest wasn’t suitable to pick white fruits all year round, even in a cold winter.

At the same time, the white fruits were also very dense.

It would be perfect if the white fruit could be eaten as a staple food.

If she hadn’t wanted to build a home of his own, Chang Xia would have preferred to leave time to study the white fruit and other fine food.

After all, there were too many animals and plants in Twilight Forest that she had never seen before.

“Okay. I’ll cut some vines. Don’t walk around,” Chen Rong instructed. He didn’t dare go too far, so he cut a pile of vines nearby.

A moment later.

She made a few baskets.

It was inconvenient to make back baskets so Chen Rong decided to tie the vines into normal baskets.

Chang Xia took a basket and filled it with the picked white fruit. It didn’t take long for the woven baskets to be filled again.

Chang Xia wiped the hot sweat from her brow and stared at the sun overhead. It was approaching noon.

It just so happened that she was hungry.

“Chen Rong, come and tidy up the back basket and hand held basket. It’s time to go home!” Chang Xia shouted, calling back Chen Rong, who was picking white fruits, intending to reorganize his harvest and go home.

“Are all the baskets full?” Chen Rong asked as he carried them over.

Chang Xia nodded. “They’re all full. I’ll go back and leave them in the sun for a few days. You’ll be able to grind the powder then. At that time, I’ll make you something delicious.” In a few days, you might be able to eat noodles. Thinking about it, Chang Xia was overjoyed.

Chen Rong smiled along with Chang Xia’s happy smile.

It was getting late.

Without delay, they decided to return to the tribe.

Chen Rong crouched and shapeshifted.

He used his wolf tail to help Chang Xia secure the baskets. Finally, Chang Xia got on him and the two of them ran towards the tribe.

Although she did not pick wild vegetables or collect other food on this trip, Chang Xia was not worried at all. Facing the lake, she was not worried about starving at all.

The two of them were in an extremely good mood.

Moreover, she was thinking about what to eat for lunch. Fish Balls or stewed meat. Why not stir-fry wild vegetables with fried meat?

At this moment, the two of them still did not know that someone was waiting for them in the beast lair.
