《Harvest Factory ~ a Farmer Life》Chap 43 : Welcoming Party (3)

The three chattered excitedly, talking about what kind of beasts they would encounter or the strange place they would visit. In the middle of their talk, they saw Xiao Musheng walking toward the village gate with Chen Hanchen and Liu Feng following him. The villagers saw them and began walking toward the village gate. Yan Xiu was confused. Xin Guodan became even more excited and dragged Yan Xiu along with him to the village gate, Shuang Jingu and Bai Yuan chased them.
"Guodan, what is going on?" (YX)
"The team is back!" (XG)
Yan Xiu finally realized what was going on, everyone moved to welcome the team. The village gate was crowded, Xin Guodan and Shuang Jingu stood on tiptoe and craned their necks to see the village gate better. Yan Xiu didn't need to do such a thing, Bai Yuan was taller than everyone here, Yan Xiu climbed on his shoulder and he got a clear view of the village gate.
In the dark night, everything was still. Waiting for a dozen minutes, Yan Xiu heard the faint sound of a group running while Bai Yuan already heard it earlier than Yan Xiu. A group of people entered the village from the gate and stopped before Xiao Musheng. There were fourteen people carrying different weapons, in the lead was a young man with a spear on his back. His features were sharp and handsome like a dashing hero. When Yan Xiu looked closely, the young man closely resembled Xiao Musheng.
Yan Xiu knew the young man but only his identity and name, the son of the head hunter, Xiao Long. Xiao Musheng looked at the team, despite the rough state of their clothes and weapons, they were smiling with satisfaction.
"Looks like you had a good hunt, good." (XM)

The team let out a laugh. Xiao Musheng smiled.
"The village has prepared a feast for all of you. Eat and drink to your heart's content." (XM)
Said Xiao Musheng as he opened his arm.
"Welcome back." (XM)
The team saluted Xiao Musheng.
"We're back!"
The village erupted with cheers. The team dispersed to hug their family and their family welcomed them back. The Xiao pair of father and son looked at each other with smiles, Xiao Long came forward to his father's open arm for a hug. Looking at the touching reunion in front of him, Yan Xiu felt his sour. He imagined such a scene every day even in his dream, where his parents came back and he could hug them and be with them again.
Beads of tears pooled in his eyes, he quickly hid his face and wiped the tears off. This was a happy moment, he couldn't be sad. Bai Yuan felt Yan Xiu fluctuate emotion and called worriedly at him.
"Uhouho? (Master, are you okay?)" (BY)
Yan Xiu smiled at Bai Yuan and patted his head. There were still some tears in the corner of his eyes.
"I'm okay. I just got something in my eye." (YX)
Bai Yuan still looked worried at Yan Xiu. After reuniting and talking with their family a bit, they moved toward the long table. Bai Yuan's presence was not something that could be ignored. The villagers already grew used to it but not the team, they looked at Bai Yuan and noticed the small boy riding on his shoulder.
Yan Xiu already wiped his tears, he noticed that everyone on the hunter team was looking at him. A little shy and nervous, he smiled a little and waved his hands. The cute gesture of the cute boy instantly hit the hearts of everyone from the hunter team, especially the female hunter.

They momentarily forgot about Bai Yuan, they waved at Yan Xiu with a smile of their own. Near the long table, there were some people setting up a big bonfire with a stand for cooking on top. Yan Xiu was curious, were they going to cook something?
While the bonfire was prepared, the members of the hunter team went back to their home to change their clothes. They couldn't attend a feast dedicated to them with their clothes in a poor state, right? They quickly changed their clothing before returning.
Not far from the bonfire, Xiao long was standing with his hand extended in front of him. People make some space in front of him, looking at the copper ring at his finger, Yan Xiu had a guess what he would do.
A mountain of carcass suddenly appeared out of nowhere. Blue bird with a blade-like wing, red bovine with three legs, scale-less silver snake, there were all beasts that Yan Xiu have never seen. There were also fruits beside the mountain of carcass, all of it was foreign to Yan Xiu.
As expected, the ring was a spatial ring, thought Yan Xiu.
Looking at the yield of the hunter team, Xiao Musheng nodded proudly. Xiao Long grinned.
"This is not the end yet, we still have herbs and the best yield, this." (XL)
A big carcass appeared, it was bigger than any carcass that appeared before it. It was a beast with ash color saggy skin, there was moss growing all over its body. There was an ivy-like grass that grew on its round head, it had a big nose and small eyes.
The villagers gasped when they saw the carcass, the hunter team member looked proud. Xiao Musheng also looked surprised. Then Yan Xiu saw Granny Shen ran toward the carcass but her focus was not directed at the carcass itself but the moss on the carcass.
She touched the moss and tore some before smelling it, she nodded multiple times before running toward her house.
"You even managed to find the rare Terkek, hahaha, good, good!" (XM)
Xiao Musheng praised loudly, the villagers also praised the hunter team. Yan Xiu knew that the beast was valuable just by looking at the reaction of everyone. He was curious just what beast it was and why was it so valuable. Then he heard the villager's conversation.
Turned out, it was because the beast had another name, it was called a living medicine. The meat did not only taste good, but it could also energize the body and treat joint pain. The moss was even more incredible, it could be made into medicine with great healing properties. It was great for skin trauma and gash injury.
