The ice and snow gradually melted, and the climate continued to warm up every day.

In order to get Huanhuan pregnant, Shuang Yun tried to transform into his beast form several times during the mating process. In the end, he was mercilessly rejected each time.

Shuang Yun was very indignant. ?Winter is almost over. If you don?t get pregnant soon, you won?t be able to give birth in spring!?

Lin Huanhuan was very determined. ?I don?t want to get pregnant yet!?

?Then when will you be willing to get pregnant??

Lin Huanhuan?s plan was to wait until next winter to get pregnant, but she didn?t say it out loud. Instead, she snorted. ?That depends on your performance!?

Shuang Yun frowned. ?Is my performance bad? If you?re dissatisfied with me, I can change!?

Lin Huanhuan glanced at him. ?First, you have to put on your clothes.?

Running naked in broad daylight, especially when his thing was especially thick. It was simply blinding!

Shuang Yun was unwilling. ?How can we mate after putting on clothes?!?

?Right now, I don?t want to mate. I just want to take a nap.?

Shuang Yun shouted, ?Why? You already mated with Bai Di last night. It should be my turn today!?

Lin Huanhuan wrapped herself in a blanket and closed her eyes to sleep. ?Zzzzzzzzz??

Shuang Yun was speechless.

?

The injured beasts gradually recovered.

After that, Lin Huanhuan temporarily took over the position of witch doctor. If anyone had any headaches or fever, they would go to her for consultation. In the end, they were usually cured.

Lin Huanhuan actually didn?t have any special treatment methods. Most of the time, she relied on the records in the sheepskin book to make a prescription based on the patient?s actual situation.

She was also lucky to be able to treat the right problem every time.

The herbs in the old witch doctor?s house were snatched away by the Black River Wolf Tribe previously. Later on, Shuang Yun and the others snatched them back and even brought back more. Therefore, there was a sufficient amount of herbs stored. Lin Huanhuan basically had no worries.

Due to the melting of the ice and snow, it was time to think of a way to deal with the remains of the beasts that were originally placed at the entrance of the cave. If they were placed there any longer, the bodies would rot when the ice and snow completely melted.

The beasts had no burial rituals. Their method of dealing with the remains of corpses was usually to throw them away.

As for the place? It was said that there was a huge pit behind the rock mountain. Many corpses and remains were thrown there.

Lin Huanhuan had never seen the huge pit, and she was not interested in seeing it either. However, she did not approve of the casual abandonment of the remains.

After all, they were their benefactors who protected them. It would be too heartless to throw away their remains like this.

Lin Huanhuan said, ?Why don?t we cremate them??

Burial was more in line with traditional concepts, but it was very inconvenient. After all, so many beasts had died. Just digging a hole would take a long time. If the tribe migrated in the future, it would be difficult for those graves to migrate with them. It would be too troublesome.

Hence, she suggested cremation.

It was simple and crude, which suited their current living environment.

Shuang Yun didn?t understand what cremation was.

Hence, Lin Huanhuan roughly explained the method and meaning of cremation, emphasizing the benefits of cremation.

Shuang Yun was silent for a long time after hearing this.

Lin Huanhuan thought that he didn?t agree and couldn?t help but feel a little uneasy. ?Do you think cremation isn?t good??

?No, I was just thinking that if my father had passed away later, I could?ve held a cremation for him.?

Watching his father?s remains rot in front of him was forever a sore point in Shuang Yun?s heart.

Lin Huanhuan patted his head. ?It?s all in the past.?

Shuang Yun cremated the dead beasts? bodies.

They placed the remains on a pyre, lit it with fire, and burned the bodies.

All the beasts walked out of the cave to watch. It was the first time most of them had seen fire, and they all looked shocked.

Some people couldn?t help but hide in the cave because they were afraid of fire. They didn?t dare to come out until the fire was extinguished.

Lin Huanhuan faced the fire and kowtowed three times respectfully to send these souls off and thank them for saving her.

Shuang Yun was surprised by her actions and couldn?t help but ask, ?What are you doing??

Lin Huanhuan didn?t know how to explain, so she replied casually.

?I?m comforting the departed souls. I hope they can rest in peace.?

The beasts were very superstitious about ghosts and gods. Every year, they would hold regular sacrifices and pray to the gods to be able to hunt more prey and give birth to more cubs.

Lin Huanhuan?s words made Shuang Yun?s expression change slightly. He did not expect that there were still souls after the beasts died.

At the thought that Lang Zhu?s soul might be looking at him, Shuang Yun felt a weight in his heart. He imitated Huanhuan and knelt down, kowtowing respectfully.

?Old Witch Doctor, we?ve avenged you. Leave in peace!?

Lin Huanhuan and Shuang Yun did not avoid being heard or seen by the others. In addition, the beasts? hearing was very sharp, so everyone heard their words clearly.

Beastmen were very superstitious. As long as it involved the souls of ghosts and gods, they would obey without any reason.

Hence, a large group of beasts knelt down and kowtowed like Lin Huanhuan.

When Lin Huanhuan stood up, she suddenly realized that a large group of people was kneeling behind her. She was so frightened that she almost fell to the ground.

Fortunately, Bai Di was quick enough to help her.

Lin Huanhuan was stunned. ?W-What are you doing??

Bai Di said, ?Didn?t you say that kneeling and kowtowing would comfort the souls? Everyone is just doing as they were told. There?s strength in numbers. I?m sure the souls in the sky can hear our prayers.?

Lin Huanhuan thought to herself, ?By comfort, I meant psychological comfort. It?s completely different from what you understand!?

Seeing how everyone was kneeling and kowtowing seriously, Lin Huanhuan chose not to explain it.

Forget it. In any case, it was not wrong to kowtow to their family. She would just treat it as developing the spiritual civilization of the beasts in advance!

After the remains were burned, Lin Huanhuan got someone to put the ashes into jars. After covering them tightly, she sealed them with animal hide.

She handed the jar to Shuang Yun. ?Keep them well. These are all heroes of our tribe.?

Shuang Yun agreed seriously. ?Yes!?

After this incident, Lin Huanhuan?s identity as a witch doctor was confirmed by everyone again.

A so-called witch doctor would have some skills in witchcraft.

Lin Huanhuan slowly knelt down and kowtowed to comfort the souls of the departed. In the eyes of the beasts, this was also a form of witchcraft.

Hence, they thought that Lin Huanhuan knew witchcraft and medicine. No one was more suitable to be a witch doctor than her!

Under this strange tacit understanding, Lin Huanhuan had to personally be present when every female gave birth.

It seemed that as long as she stayed beside them, the females would feel that they could definitely give birth to many strong wolf cubs!

Lin Huanhuan could only spread her hands with helplessness. ?As long as you guys are happy!?

Spring had officially arrived. The snow and ice in the forest had completely disappeared, and the climate became warm. Sprouts came out of dry branches, and the animals had all woken from their hibernation. They started moving around the forest.

The beasts could finally hunt again!

Shuang Yun excitedly brought the beasts down the mountain to hunt. Bai Di would occasionally hunt, but he was mostly alone and wouldn?t go with Shuang Yun and the others.

Even so, Bai Di had never brought back less prey than the wolf tribe.
