Chapter 270 - Weaving Nets (2/2)

Bai Qingqing then realized that she was hungry and licked her lips. “We should have enough bark. Help get me some sweet potatoes. I want to quickly finish weaving this net.”

Curtis didn’t say a word. Instead, he bent down and picked her up, then walked towards the City of Beastmen.

“Hey, put me down!”

Curtis took off his animal skin skirt and his legs transformed into a snake’s tail. He then slithered quickly.

Winston smiled as he watched the two of them leave. He then picked up the rope on the ground and began weaving the net based on Bai Qingqing’s technique.

After planting the crops once, Bai Qingqing felt too embarrassed to eat rice. She wanted to cook porridge to save on rice, but Curtis didn’t let her do so, and they made bamboo rice as usual. When she’d eaten her fill and they returned to the land, Winston had already weaved a net that was half a meter long.

His knots weren’t as even as Bai Qingqing’s, but no fault could be found with them.

Bai Qingqing was rather surprised. She moved the already weaved pieces of rope to the field and the four of them began to weave the net together. They managed to finish weaving the net before nightfall and placed it over the field.

However, this net wasn’t really effective as there were little snakes waiting for birds in their field and birds naturally stayed away as a result.

At sunset, the beastmen who’d been farming handed over their work to the next shift of beastmen. As a result, the number of people in the fields quickly increased. Surprise was written all over their faces as they looked at the net on Bai Qingqing’s field.

“What’s this?”

“There’s such a strong plant smell. Is that fresh bark? Oh my god. How did the bark end up like that?”

The beastmen didn’t dare to go near the territory of a powerful beastman and instead observed the net-covered field from afar.
