Beauty and the Beasts - Chapter 549

Chapter 549: The Tribe Struck It Big

Bai Qingqing couldn’t understand the tiger language and was still baffled. She looked at those big stone buckets and couldn’t dare to believe that they were all filled with salt.

As Winston ran, he raised his front legs and turned into his human form. Before he could say anything, a piece of animal skin was thrown at his face.

“It’s your animal skin skirt. No need to thank me.” Parker was also attracted by the tiger’ roars. The moment he put his head out from the tree hole, he saw Winston about to transform. Before he jumped down from the tree, he tossed down an animal skin skirt.

Winston’s abnormally majestic reproduction organ had always been a thorn in his heart. He mustn’t let Qingqing’s heart be stolen by Winston.

Winston immediately put it on. He now had a mate and shouldn’t expose his reproduction organ to other females.

Winston felt especially good from this secret thought even though Qingqing might not be concerned about him.

“It’s salt!”

Bai Qingqing couldn’t understand, but Molly, who was of the pure-blooded tiger tribe lineage, could. She said this in a hurry and then also ran over to take a look.

Bai Qingqing raised her head and looked toward Winston. He said, “En, it’s salt. We’ve managed to extract salt with both methods you mentioned.”

“My god!” Bai Qingqing found this very amazing and immediately got excited. “I’ll go take a look as well.”

The salt barrel was surrounded by layers of tiger beastmen, so how could Bai Qingqing, someone with -5 battle prowess, be able to squeeze her way in?

However, she had just run over when they immediately made way for her.

Bai Qingqing was feeling perplexed when she turned and realized that Winston had come along.

She suddenly felt a hidden exhilaration of “taking the advantage of someone else’s influence to throw one’s weight around.”

The females brought animal skin skirts for their males, and the tribal head also received one from his female. When he saw that Bai Qingqing, someone not from the tribe, had come, he turned into his human form and put on his animal skin skirt.

“If you guys have taken a look, then you can leave. Go back and bring the vessels here. We’ll be distributing the salt right away.”

The tribal head especially looked toward Bai Qingqing as he said this, wearing a sincere smile. “You can go back home and wait as well.”

“I want to take a look.” Bai Qingqing smiled. However, the stone bucket was taller than she was. She could only jump as she tried to take a look.

Suddenly, she felt tension on her waist, and her vision became higher.

Bai Qingqing looked down and saw a pair of big hands around her waist. She didn’t need to look back to know that it was Winston.

“Thanks.”

After thanking softly, Bai Qingqing grabbed onto the stone bucket’s edges and looked inside.

The salt inside was a little glaring even to Bai Qingqing, and her lips curled up uncontrollably. “There’s so much.”

The scent of blood suddenly permeated in the air. Everyone was immersed in the elation, so they only reacted after seeing the source of the blood stench.

Bluepool was lugging a wild wolf. He looked into the stone bucket and was also momentarily astonished.

Their tribe would only be able to extract this much salt in a year.

This was bad. If the beastmen on land became better than merfolk at extracting salt, then how would they be able to trade with the beastmen on land with salt?

However, his tone sounded a little contemptuous when he spoke. “It’s a vast difference from the salt we extract. There’s still sand inside.”

These small flaws made Bluepool feel a little better.

However, Bai Qingqing’s next sentence broke his line of balance.

“It’s alright. The sand can be sieved out.” Bai Qingqing smiled.

The tribal head also said, “What’s the problem with a little sand? We can just pick them out when we have time.”

“Roar!”

“Roar!”

The tiger beastmen all cried out in agreement.

Bluepool felt completely dejected and walked away while dragging his prey.

Only now did Bai Qingqing notice his prey. “You really managed to hunt something? That’s so amazing! Wolves run really quickly.”
