After getting a satisfactory answer, several males left with excitement on their faces.
Seeing them leaving excitedly, and specifically telling what she said to other male orcs who didn't dare to run over, seeing that they all paid special attention to this issue, Su Anan blinked her eyes, looked at Alan with a puzzled expression, and said: " Is it difficult for females to conceive?"
Allen nodded, with a hint of worry flashing through his pale brown eyes, and said: "A female can conceive two or three times in her lifetime and give birth to five to eight cubs, but only three to eight cubs can survive to adulthood. five.
I heard from wise men of some large tribes that very few female cubs can survive to adulthood, and it is too difficult for females to conceive, so the number of orcs is constantly decreasing. "
If this continues, the inheritance and continuation of the orc bloodline may be in danger!
Hearing this, Su Anan frowned slightly, and said, "What is the ratio of males to females in ordinary tribes?"
As a wandering orc, Alan still knows it better, and said: "It's probably seven to one!"
Thinking of the eight-to-one ratio of males to females in the Baka tribe, Su Anan suddenly realized that this problem was quite serious. If it was seven to one, that is to say, females must give birth to eight cubs to maintain the current population level. But the number of cubs that can survive to adulthood is less than eight. If this continues, the orcs will really become extinct!
Thinking that most of the tribes gave the best and most nutritious food to females and cubs, Su Anan was puzzled: "Why is it so difficult for female cubs to live to adulthood?"
Allen sighed and said: "I heard that a long time ago, the ratio of males to females was only three to one, or even two to one. They robbed the prey with the orcs, so the tribe's food was lacking.
There is not enough food, and the weather is getting worse and worse, which has caused the survival rate of the cubs to drop a lot. The female cubs are already delicate and have a lower survival rate. "
Su An'an looked puzzled: "What is a worm?"
Hearing this, a hint of surprise flashed in her blue eyes, couldn't she think of medical skills and many other things? Why can't even the basic common sense of insects and beasts be remembered?
Allen had already noticed her lack of common sense, so he didn't find it strange, and calmly gave her a little science about insects and beasts.
Su Anan asked curiously: "Insects and beasts can hunt prey and orcs, so can't orcs hunt insects and beasts for food?"
Hearing this, thinking of the ugliness of the worm, Alan's expression froze slightly, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, he shook his head silently for a while, and frowned, "The worm is so ugly, I lose my appetite when I look at it. However, when food is scarce in the cold season , Some starving orcs have tried hunting worms, but the worm meat is sour and poisonous, and they can't eat it at all."
Su An'an sighed, it seems that the insect beast is at the top of the food chain, and it is definitely the most powerful pest in the beastman continent!
After thinking for a while, Su An'an suddenly looked at Cang, and said, "Cang, I can check the bodies of the females and males who have already married in the tribe to see what caused them to fail to conceive, and I will also give corresponding medicines Prescription, let them increase the possibility of pregnancy.
But I can't guarantee that they will be 100% pregnant. Moreover, I need to charge a fee. Each diagnosis requires a piece of animal skin, and the herbs needed for the medicine also need to be produced. "
Hearing this, a trace of joy flashed in Cang's eyes very quickly. After getting along these days, he already understood that she was not a random female. Since she brought it up, she must be able to increase the chances of pregnancy for the clansmen, so he was very happy. He nodded seriously and said, "Thank you, An An!"
Su Anan shook her head, and said frankly: "There is nothing to thank, because I don't work for nothing, I need to be charged!"
Allen frowned fieryly, stared at her with pale brown eyes, and said in a puzzled tone: "An'an, why are you preparing animal skins?"
Su Anan looked at him strangely, and said: "The heavy rainy season is over and the cold season is over. Of course I have to prepare animal skins for the cold season!"
Hearing this, Allen's expression turned red instantly, his eyes gleamed with depression, and his tone was slightly sullen, and said: "An'an, the animal skins are prepared by males. When my internal injuries are healed, I will go out to hunt. You don¡¯t have to worry about animal skins at all!¡±
Seeing him pursing the corners of his lips, staring at her angrily, his chest heaving with anger, Su An'an looked shocked, she didn't seem to say anything, why did he seem angry?
The dark golden brows were frowned, and the tone was slightly cold: "An'an, I have already prepared your animal skins for the winter season. You don't need to worry about the animal skins!"
See Cang's expression is also?Agreed, Su Anan blinked her eyes puzzledly, and said in confusion: "I'm not a member of the Baka tribe, why did you prepare animal skins for me?"
Cang said in a serious tone with a hint of guilt, "You not only explained medical skills to old Nick and Jamie, but also taught the Baka tribe to store candied fruit and dried potatoes for the cold season. The only gift we can give you is Animal skins."
Su An'an shook her head, and said seriously: "I heard that you gave me the tribe's only healing holy medicine, the green crystal, to treat my illness, and also took in Alan and me. I am really grateful.
Compared with the stable living environment and the value of green crystals, the only things I can give back to you are medical skills and food. How can I accept the tribe's animal skins again? "
In this regard, Cang stared at her coldly for a long while, then lowered his head to deal with the wild boar, and did not want to talk to her anymore, so as not to get angry with himself.
Seeing that after Alan, Cang was also angry, Su An'an looked a little confused, did she say something wrong again? Why is even Cang angry? However, he would be angry, so amazing! Did she think he was an iceberg tiger with no feelings?
Seeing that even though Cang was angry, she still cut out the pig's pancreas she needed. Su An'an was a little at a loss, but still pointed at the pig's leg and said, "I want another pig's leg."
Su An'an used running water to carefully clean the blood from the pig's pancreas, tear off the white fat, pick out the tendons in the pancreas, cut it into slices, and then carefully cleaned the pig's legs.
"Cang, Alan, I have to go back to the medicine house first, take your time!" Sensing the embarrassment of the atmosphere, Su An'an was about to leave. It seemed that she would have to ask Annie tomorrow why they were angry.
Seeing her holding up the big stone pots, even though she knew she was quite strong, Alan snatched them over, picked up a few stone pots and walked towards the medicine house.
Seeing this, a slight smile flashed in Su An'an's eyes. She could catch up with him, but she still deliberately shouted: "Alan, don't go too fast, wait for me!"
Seeing that although he was still walking with his back to her, he subconsciously slowed down, Su An'an's eyebrows and eyes were bent a little, and he felt that the fox beast was a good male who was arrogant and kind!
After returning to the medicine house, Su An'an asked Allen to go to Cang's cave to stew the pork legs, and told him to bring the stone pot after the stew was rotten, and asked him to bring a pot of plant ash.
She made a new large stone pot and pestle with stones, put the pig pancreas and brown sugar powder into the stone pot to grind and pestle, and then poured the whitening and skin-rejuvenating medicinal powder that she had prepared before to grind together .
Old Nick and Jamie, who watched Su An'an's actions all the time, looked confused, but they still watched very carefully. An'an's medical skills are so good, maybe she is taking some kind of pills!
After Allen and Cang came over with a pot of stewed pork legs and a pot of plant ashes, Su Anan first poured the plant ashes into the stone pot, then poured the lard from the stewed pork legs into it, and continued to fiddle .
Seeing that Su An'an had been messing with it for a long time, sweating, but in the end a big black and dirty thing came out of it, and then ran to wash his hands in disgust, the four orcs who were watching couldn't help but express their inexplicable words expression.
Allen coughed lightly, ignoring that he was still angry with her just now, blinking his light brown fox eyes, and comforted cautiously: "An'an, it doesn't matter if you fail, just do it again, I believe An'an It will definitely work."
Cang was also worried that she would be depressed because of failure, so he nodded silently, echoing Alan's words.
Su An'an, who just ran to wash his hands and verified the success of the soap, gave them a speechless look, and said, "Who said I failed?"
Su Anan has crooked eyebrows, she succeeded the first time, she is really a genius!
Hearing this, Jamie widened his eyes in disbelief, pointed at the dark lump, and said in a terrified tone: "This pill has plant ash added, is it really edible?"
eat? The corner of Su An'an's mouth twitched imperceptibly, and said: "Who said this thing is edible! This is pancreas soap, which has a cleaning function and can be used to wash hands, hair, face and bathe!"
Jamie looked disgusted, and said: "Use this dirty thing with plant ash to wash your hands and take a bath, are you sure it won't get dirtier after washing? You can just wash your hands and take a bath with water, isn't it?"
Hearing this, Su An'an didn't argue with him, and directly touched a handful of lard on their hands, signaling them to wash their hands with rainwater. Seeing that their hands were still greasy after washing, she scooped up a piece of soap and rubbed it into their hands, then signaled them to wash their hands.
After washing his hands, Allen looked surprised, and said: "It's so clean! It's so amazing that you can wash it so clean without licking it!" (Remember the website website: www.hlnovel.com
