Chapter 387 The fuse is lit, and it is difficult to stop
"Cochas, there are some things you can't just say." It was Katiejo who spoke. She would certainly not let the flamingo tribe be bullied.
Because of Katichijo's words, the orcs' hearts were shaken by doubt. In fact, there were rumors in the Beast City, and the orcs had their own thoughts in their hearts.
In silence, Kochas looked at Katiejo with a smile and said, "Female Katiejo, I am not talking nonsense. They did these things in private and they must have kept it from you. I have evidence. You will understand it after reading it."
Kochas looked confident and calm, but when he said he had evidence, Katijo's heart skipped a beat and she frowned slightly. Ye Luoxing felt the same way, because she knew clearly that Beiyan and the others had indeed seen the Yan Beast and had made a deal with him. Could it be that Kochas and the others really had evidence?
Kochas clapped his hands towards the sky, and the beastmen had different expressions...
Bei Yan, Lu Lan and the others looked towards the main peak with cold eyes, and saw several bald eagles flying over with a large bag of things on their backs. The bags were wrapped tightly in animal skins, and Ye Luoxing could not see anything. But as the bald eagles approached, Bei Yan and the others obviously smelled something.
Kochas looked at Beiyan and the others' changing expressions, and saw a hint of surprise in their eyes. His smile grew brighter...
Soon, the bald eagles flew to the center of the clearing. They changed into human form and opened the animal skin packages under the attention of all the orcs. Then piles of rare dried herbs appeared inside, and the animals present stared in amazement.
"I recognize some of these things. Aren't these rare herbs that can only be found in the South?"
"It looks like that to me too. I've even seen it at the witch doctor's in the inner city!"
"What a pity! These herbs are very precious. There are even fewer herbs in our northern land. Where did you collect so many herbs from?"
"It's not possible to gather so many in a day or a night! No one except Beast City has the strength to do this!"
"It is indeed the Midnight City..."
After being surprised, the orcs sighed one after another. They had not yet considered the relationship between these herbs and the flamingo tribe, but their eyes could not help but light up.
When Bei Yan and Lu Lan saw these piles of herbs, they already had some guesses in their minds, and their auras grew colder.
Kochas interrupted the beasts' discussion, and his voice rang out slowly in the center of the vast open space: "You will never guess where these herbs came from. Recently, the Yan beasts in the north have been too arrogant and disturbed the peace of our north. Naturally, we can't just ignore them. The orcs I sent out happened to discover the Yan beasts' nest, so when we defeated the Yan beasts, we found these things in their cave."
Earlier, when Bai Xuan heard Kochas mention the Yan Beast, she glanced at Bei Yan and the others with a cold look. At this moment, when she heard Kochas say that he had defeated the Yan Beast, Bai Xuan's expression was complicated, and it was difficult to describe the emotions in her heart, but she was still paying attention to the reactions of Bei Yan and the others.
"What do you want to say?" Bei Yan uttered these words indifferently, maintaining his composure.
Kochas sneered and looked at the first of the older females. "Just as everyone said just now, no one in the entire North can produce such a large number of medicinal herbs except the Beast City. Because there is a place for exchange in the Midnight City, the orcs in the South will bring rare medicinal herbs for exchange, but most of them are exchanged with the beasts settled in the city. Naturally, the orcs in the tribe cannot accumulate so many."
"But, it is really rare that this group of Yan beasts that have stayed in the north for so long would have so many medicinal herbs from the south. I can't think of any possibility except that these herbs were transported out of the Beast City. Moreover... to have so many medicinal herbs and to transport them out, this is not something that ordinary orcs can do." Kochas still had murderous intent in his eyes, but he pretended to be rational and polite on his face.
The more the orcs listened, the more frightened they became, because what Kochas said was not wrong. Even the female elders found it difficult to accept this fact...
At this moment, Ye Luoxing was surprised and was also thinking about another thing. The orcs in the city were killed two days ago. It was done by Krollin and his men. They sneaked into the Beast City. Even Liao Yuan and Liu Fei and their men came. Therefore, the group of Yan beasts outside the city had no leader. Could it be that Kochas took this opportunity to destroy that group of Yan beasts?
Kochas was indeed cruel and showed no mercy to his brother, but Krollin was too cunning to be wiped out so easily.
So... could it be that they cooperated?
But this guess is unlikely. The two of them obviously have conflicting personalities and may even have hatred. It is impossible for two orcs to cooperate sincerely. The orcs killed in the city two days ago were Kochas's orcs. Kochas will not weaken his own strength, and Krollin will never hand over these herbs easily...
"Oh~" Bei Yan suddenly smiled, "So what you mean is that there is a traitor in your tribe, and they gave the herbs to Yan Beast?"
Bei Yan's mind worked quickly. Although saying this might not be useful, if Kochas could do it, then he could naturally do it too.
Ye Luoxing instantly felt the sharp edge revealed by Bei Yan...
Kochas snorted and laughed, "Oh, Beiyan, there's no point in you pretending. There are many orcs outside the city who saw us search these herbs from the Yan beast's lair. Moreover, the rare herbs in the inner city have always been half for each of the two tribes. Our tribe's half is still there, so we can immediately produce a very considerable amount of herbs. What about yours? Is it still there?"
Kochas raised his eyebrows, his words revealing threats, and all the orcs looked at Beiyan.
"Since they are herbs, there have been more competitions recently and the orcs have been injured, so the herbs are naturally consumed. Moreover, any orc in the city can exchange them. This doesn't mean anything. It doesn't make sense for you to frame us for this." Lu Lan has always been reasonable and his reasons are reasonable.
Fei Xu then continued, "It was the Flamingo Beast that killed the orcs in the Beast City two days ago. Now, we have searched the nest of the Yan Beast and found these rare herbs. How could it be such a coincidence that you Flamingo Tribe just happened to come across them!"
They were determined to prove Bei Yan and his group's guilt, and it just so happened that Bei Yan and his group actually did it this time.
As the atmosphere became increasingly tense, one of the female elders was about to ask Bei Yan and the others for an explanation, but Kati Qiao came to the rescue again...
"You are wrong to say that. Just like Lu Lan said just now, anyone can exchange items. What's more, I heard that there is a powerful witch doctor in the outer city recently who allows orcs to exchange herbs for the opportunity to be treated. The accumulated herbs are as high as a hill. Are you going to suspect the witch doctor again?" Katijo quickly connected it to something and used it as an example.
Ye Luoxing immediately realized that the orc that Katijo was talking about was most likely himself.
The atmosphere around them was not good, and finally Ye Luoxing spoke up to help out: "Hasn't the matter from the previous two days been resolved? Those two females didn't say anything, do you need to use this to suspect anyone?"
