Cultural Exchange Points +9!
Current total exchange points: 10!]
Su Tang silently did some mental maths and seemed to understand the scoring rules.
A new piece of information would grant one point when first shared.
However, hearing the exact same information a second time wouldn’t grant any extra points.
Thinking of this, Su Tang spread knowledge to everyone again with a smile, “So we usually need to boil our water over a fire until it is bubbling and rolling.
Note that freshly boiled water is very hot.
Let it cool down before drinking!
Otherwise, you could get hurt!”
[Ding!
Cultural Exchange Points +5!
Current total exchange points: 15!]
The elder Nike was extremely excited.
Previously, in Upper Beast City, all the Beastmen drank boiled water, but he never knew why.
Now, Su Tang’s explanation had illuminated him!
However, since he’d come to the Winged Tiger Tribe in the wilderness, there weren’t the means for everyone in the tribe to drink boiled water.
Because of this, he never shared about boiling water before.
“Su Tang!
I’ll give you the jar now, right away!
Wait for me to fetch it!”
Elder Nike scurried back to his cave while Qing Guo laughed heartily.
“I’m Qing Guo.
Yuanyuan told me your name is Su Tang, can I call you Tangtang like she does?”
Feeling inwardly thrilled, Su Tang blinked, grinned and said, “Of course~ Then, can I call you Guoguo?”
Yuanyuan, who was next to them, giggled and said, “Tangtang, maybe you should come up with a different nickname.
We have others in the tribe named Huang Guo and Hong Guo – calling Qing Guo ‘Guoguo’ might get confusing!”
Su Tang blushed slightly and timidly said, “I see…
then, can I call you Qing Guo?”
“Of course, you can!”
“Cough…
Cough…
”
Meng Ze, who had been lying on the ground overlooked by everyone, suddenly began to cough.
Yuanyuan cried in surprise and squatted down next to Meng Ze.
“A Ze, how are you feeling?”
Meng Ze gave a weak smile and shook his head.
Yuanyuan turned to Su Tang with teary eyes.
“Tangtang, what should we do?”
Su Tang scratched her head and turned to Qing Guo.
“Qing Guo, can you fetch some more water from the river?”
Qing Guo didn’t ask why.
He nodded and walked off with the giant leaf, which had been emptied of water.
Su Tang glanced at her white coat and sighed.
She tugged at the hem of her coat, as if trying to rip off a piece.
But the coat held firm, despite her effort that turned her face red with exertion.
She awkwardly held out a piece of her coat to Gaiyin.
“Gaiyin, could you help me tear off a piece?”
Gaiyin nodded, seemingly without any effort, he ripped a large piece off the coat!
Su Tang swallowed silently and mentally tagged Gaiyin as a dangerous beast!
Gaiyin: ???
What did I do wrong?
Soon, Qing Guo returned carrying the clear water.
Su Tang beckoned to Yuanyuan and handed her the torn piece of cloth.
“Soak this cloth in water, use it to wipe Meng Ze’s forehead, behind his ears, palms, soles and around the wounds.
Be careful not to touch the wounds themselves!”
Under Su Tang’s guidance, Yuanyuan grew adept quickly.
At this point, elder Nike came racing back, carrying a clean clay jar filled with water.
Su Tang turned to Qing Guo, “Qing Guo, could you help me boil this water?
I’ll go with elder Nike to find some medicinal herbs for Meng Ze.”
