Becoming Rich In A Beast World - Chapter 31

Chapter 31: A Shock to the Tribe – Part 2

“Chief, what kind of fruit is it? Why haven’t we seen it before?”

After a beast asked quizzically, everyone chimed in.

“It’s thorny fruit!”

The crowd fell silent when they heard Cain’s answer.

Su Tang suppressed the excitement flooding her heart after Cain had embraced her and addressed their concerns.

“After thorny fruit ripens, their husk becomes weak. Even though it looks sharp and dangerous, all you need to do is throw it on the ground to open them!”

A female asked in disbelief, “Really? A thorny fruit once fell on one of our boys. He lost a lot of blood and died.”

Another female chimed in, “Yeah! I recall he was Yuanyuan’s little brother!”

Su Tang looked at Yuanyuan in shock. Yuanyuan did not bring this up when they talked about chestnuts in the afternoon.

Yuanyuan nodded sadly, so Su Tang did not probe.

“Since kids tend to have softer skin, they should avoid touching thorny fruit, but it’s okay for grownups! It will only hurt a little when they fall on us, and you definitely won’t die from it!”

Since Su Tang looked petite and weak and had only joined the tribe today, she did not have any sway over them.

All the beasts felt hesitant and did not know whether to trust Su Tang.

Cain said deeply, “Old Nick was blessed by the God Beast in his sleep last night and became a healer. From now on, we will have a healer among us!”

Old Nick chuckled aloud as well.

“That’s right! I have done my utmost to look for medicine for the tribe all these years. Last night, I was finally enlightened by the God Beast and became a healer!”

Green Fruit and Yuanyuan stepped forward to attest to his abilities.

“That’s right! Old Nick was the one who saved Meng Ze!”

Most of the beasts in the tribe had seen the severity of Meng Ze’s injuries!

In the past, badly injured beasts were sent to the Prayer Cave to await Beast God’s decision to let them live or die if there were no healers to save them!

However, Meng Ze had not been sent to the Prayer Cave. Although no one knew how he was, Yuanyuan would stay at his side if he was dying since she was Meng Ze’s partner, so the tribe believed them before long.

They surrounded Old Nick and tossed him into the air repeatedly!

“Owooo! Owooo! From now on, Winged Tiger Tribe has a healer too!”

“Old Nick! Old Nick!”

“Thank you for blessing Winged Tiger Tribe, Beast God!”

…

Cain held Su Tang’s hand and led her out of the crowd.

“I’m sorry. I didn’t tell them you were a healer! Don’t be upset. I am just trying to protect you!”

Su Tang tilted her head sideways and smiled. “I’m not angry. Although I don’t know why you did it, I trust you!”

Cain smiled too. “Since you’re too young, you might end up attracting trouble if others find out you are a healer!”

Winged Tiger Tribe was located in a remote part of Beast World. Since the area was too poor and backward, there were barely any healers.

Of all the tribes in their area, only Great Eagle Tribe in Beast City had a single healer!

If anyone from the other tribes needed treatment, they had to offer five large wild animals as consultation fees and see if the healer was willing to take the patient!

Other healers had emerged in the area before. However, Great Eagle Tribe wanted to monopolize the trade. Hence, if they failed to get the healer to join them, they would hunt them down!
