Chapter 249: Shu Yun
A beastman who seemed quite calm turned and glanced: "Maybe it was when I turned over in my sleep yesterday, and I got bumped by a small stone on the ground."
Wu Yue heard this and pressed her hand on it: "Maybe so, but it's not serious; I don't feel any pain."
In such a beastman society, anything is possible.
Not continuing to dwell on the mark on her shoulder, Wu Yue got up, folded the animal skin she had covered herself with last night, and looked toward the hole Shu Ye had dug yesterday.
"Still no news?"
Seeing she no longer paid attention to her shoulder, a certain beastman secretly breathed a sigh of relief and quickly followed her lead to change the subject.
"Still no news; digging a hole isn't any faster than us weaving through the forest directly—be patient."
Wu Yue could only nod: "That's all we can do."
While the two were speaking, a sudden excited shout came from the cave.
The two quickly turned to look; Shu Ye had already emerged from the cave, followed by a white rodent beastman slightly larger than him.
Wu Yue's eyes lit up: "What is this?"
Yuan Lang sniffed the air: "That's Shu Ye's father."
It seems the father-in-law also thought of the same method.
Wu Yue felt delighted; she no longer cared about the animal skin, dropped it, and ran over there.
Shu Yun naturally also knew of the tribe's new shaman; his gaze toward Wu Yue was very kind: "Shaman."
Wu Yue smiled somewhat embarrassedly: "Uncle, don't call me shaman; I feel like I'm about the same age as a shaman."
However, this middle-aged beastman warrior sternly shook his head: "You are the shaman; we should treat you with the respect due to a shaman."
Wu Yue was taken aback, then smiled: "Our tribe now has a shaman; if you insist on calling me shaman..."
After frowning in thought for a moment, she looked at the middle-aged beastman and said: "Over there, call me Moon Shaman; that way we can distinguish them, otherwise it will be hard to tell apart later."
The middle-aged beastman, who usually looked very stern, now rare showed a smile: "Moon Shaman."
The beastmen all followed suit, calling out this new title.
Wu Yue glanced at them annoyed: "But we agreed—only here should you call me that; back in the tribe, everyone still has to call me by my name."
Those who could follow Yuan Qi to protect Wu Yue to the Black Wolf Tribe were the warriors who had gone out hunting fierce beasts last time, knew Wu Yue's identity, and were absolutely loyal members of the tribe.
Everyone also knew Wu Yue and the shaman's plan, and naturally cooperated fully: "Moon Shaman, rest assured; the captain gave instructions before we left."
"You are our tribe's hidden strength."
Yuan Lang stood behind the young female, watching her being praised by the beastmen, his expression unchanged, and he couldn't help but sigh inwardly.
Jianghu youths truly are unrestrained by petty details, and this clever young female will surely get along well in the jianghu.
"Uncle Shu Yun, where does this cave lead to?"
Wu Yue looked at the not-so-large cave, somewhat worried about the beastmen's later workload.
Shu Yun looked at her: "This cave leads all the way to the highest peak of our tribe's territory, not far from our lands; it has always been where we take refuge from floods during the rainy season."
Yuan Lang beside her frowned: "In that case, I don't know if we have enough time."
The beastmen naturally understood what he meant, and at once furrowed their brows.
