"Those are the ones we raise. They're all very docile and only eat grass." Lian looked at the golden eagle orcs and continued, "They're very weak, unable to even defeat sub-beasts. They pose no threat. We also have another kind that we raise specifically for food, but there are too many of them, so we haven't released them."
Seeing that the golden eagle beastman still looked incredulous, Xun approached and said, "Ling, don't worry. We've all tried it before. Sub-beasts can really beat them. Besides, the ones we release and raise can recognize humans. As long as he recognizes you and knows you won't hurt him, he will listen to you."
Hearing Xun's words, Ling's eyes widened even more, "Is it still possible? That's great."
While they were chatting, Fei had already arrived with several other flying orcs.
Yang and Xia also appeared in front of the city wall, looking at the people in the sky.
Lian and Xun flew towards the city wall, carrying all the tribesmen on their backs to the top of the wall.
Fei was communicating with the flying orcs of Qingshan City and the people of Yu Tribe, and slowly landed on the city wall with Xun.
With such a short time difference, Xuan had already roughly told Xia and Yang about the situation of the Yu tribe and the matter of Lian.
After the people of the Yu tribe put down their belongings, Xia stepped forward and greeted them.
"Guests from the Yu Tribe, welcome to Qingshan City. I am Xia, the patriarch of the Qingshan Tribe and the current lord of Qingshan City."
An older orc from the Yu tribe also walked out, looked at Xia, and said, "I am Li from the Yu tribe. Thank you for taking care of me for so many years."
As he said this, he asked his tribesmen to hand over the things they brought to Xia.
Xia looked at them and smiled, saying, "Caring for and loving our people, how can you say it's hard work?"
He turned around and asked the other tribesmen to take all the things.
After that, the two of them stopped their hypocritical politeness and Xia Rangfei took them to a house specially built to receive guests.
After seeing the people from the Yu tribe flying away, Shu frowned as if he was thinking about something.
"Shu, what's wrong? What are you thinking about?" Yang asked after seeing Shu's expression.
"There's an orc in there who looks familiar. Let me think where I've seen him before." He leaned against the wall with his arms folded, trying hard to recall.
After hearing what Shu said, everyone present looked at him, waiting for his response.
Kamo did not leave with the people of the Yu tribe, but followed Lian all the time, never leaving his side. When he heard Shu say that the people of the Yu tribe looked familiar, he looked over.
After a long while, Shu finally revealed a look of sudden realization and said, "I remember now."
"Where have you seen him?" Lian asked. Shu was in charge of teaching the little orcs, so he seldom left Qingshan City to go to places far away.
The fact that he had met people from the Yu Tribe proved that the Yu Tribe had found him near Qingshan City, but had not found him.
"It was quite a while ago, maybe fourteen or thirteen years ago, I can't quite remember. At the time, I was taking those little guys who were about to turn fourteen to the hunting area outside the patrol area for actual combat. I smelled blood and rushed over to check it out."
"I discovered that it was a flying orc I didn't recognize who was hunting a medium-sized beast. I asked him why he was near our tribe and told him to leave as soon as possible. He was very happy to see me and asked if I had seen an eight-year-old parrot orc who was lost in their tribe and he was looking for him."
As Shu recalled and spoke, everyone present was a little surprised. It turned out that the Yu tribe had really found the area near the Qingshan tribe at that time.
But why was the chain not retrieved at that time?
"Then what?" Meng Yuqing asked. Since Lian was not found at that time, something must have happened. He didn't think Shu would deliberately conceal Lian's whereabouts.
After all, when Lian first arrived at the Qingshan tribe, Fei tried to find Lian's tribe and send him back.
Shu said helplessly, "At that time, our tribe only had one flying orc. Lian hadn't arrived yet, so I told him the truth. Our tribe only had one adult eagle orc. We had never seen an immature parrot orc. The people in the tribe probably hadn't seen one either, because any orcs in our tribe would bring back any stray cubs they saw."
Lian listened, nodded, and said, "At that time, I was still wandering outside. I was wandering for nearly two years before Fei brought me back."
Kamo grabbed Lian's arm, his eyes full of heartache.
The tribesmen had found this place before, but the time was wrong and they missed it.
But what was even more speechless was that Li Ye suddenly seemed to remember something, slapped his head and said, "According to what you said, they came to this area again later, and I encountered them. It was probably several years after your visit."
"You encountered it?" Yang looked at Li and asked curiously, "Are they still looking for the chain? The time chain should already be in our tribe."
Li scratched his head and said in confusion, "But at that time they told me that they were still looking for the eight-year-old parrot beastman that had been lost in their tribe. I thought that Lian was already over ten years old at that time, so the age didn't match. So I told them that our tribe didn't have any eight-year-old parrot beastmen, and Lian was already ten years old when he came to our tribe, so I didn't think about Lian at all."
Upon hearing this, everyone in Qingshan City widened their eyes. How could this be possible? Mu asked Kamo in confusion, "Did your tribe lose another little orc later?"
Kamo pursed his lips and shook his head, saying, "No, I only lost the chain."
Meng Yuqing looked at Kamo, thinking of what A Ling said about what Lian would look like when he grew up, and also of when they first arrived at the Yu Tribe and the orcs of the Yu Tribe mistook Lian for Xie.
After the explanation, they all looked dazed, muttering that fourteen years had passed.
In their hearts, they may have been unwilling to accept that the chain was lost. As time passed, the chain grew, and the time for the chain to become as predicted was getting closer and closer.
They really hoped that the lost chain would never grow up and would remain eight years old, waiting for them to find him and protect him.
Then he brainwashed himself and only remembered that Lian was only eight years old.
It sounds a bit ridiculous, but it reveals their concern for the chain everywhere.
