Chapter 9 The Pain of Ten Years Ago



"You are great."

After he finished speaking, he turned around and wiped away his tears. His inferior grandfather was killed by the shadow beast, and his father beast also died in that battle.

The crowd became noisy again, and this time, their topic revolved around Xuan.

.........

When the show ended, it was already dark. Meng Yuqing followed Xuan on the way to the clan leader's house. He recalled everything he had heard today and the performance of the Qingshan tribe members he had seen, and made a secret decision in his heart.

They soon arrived at the patriarch's house. When they lifted the animal skin at the door, they saw Xia and his partner Qiu Ye sitting in the middle, waiting for them.

"Father beast, sub-father, this is Meng Yuqing."

Xuan took Meng Yuqing in and sat opposite them.

When she saw the two of them come in, she immediately smiled gently, but her eyes were still red, as if she had just cried.

Xia Ye looked at them with gentle eyes. Compared to the seriousness he showed in front of his tribesmen, he looked more like a father at this moment.

There was a fire burning on the ground, and a stone pot on top of it, cooking small pieces of meat and some wild vegetables. I could smell a fragrant aroma from afar. I touched my stomach and felt a little hungry.

"Meng Yuqing, right? Welcome to our Qingshan tribe." Xia said gently.

"You must be hungry. Eat something first."

Qiu Ye scooped something out of the stone pot and put it into a stone bowl, then handed it to Meng Yuqing first. Then he scooped another bowl and just handed it to Xuan when a full bowl was stuffed into his hand.

"You eat too. You've been busy all afternoon today. Eat well." Xia handed the bowl to Qiu Ye before serving himself.

Looking at the scene in front of him, Meng Yuqing relaxed slightly. He liked this atmosphere very much and felt a little homesick.

Qiu Ye keenly noticed his emotions, put down the bowl and said.

"I heard from Xuan that he met you in the wild. Xuan doesn't usually come into contact with sub-beasts. If he does anything wrong, please don't make it a point to blame him."

"No, no, Xuan is very good. If I hadn't met him, I might not have survived." Meng Yuqing put down the bowl and waved his hands quickly.

Qiu Ye shook his head and continued.

"Xuan has already said that when he met you, he had not yet succeeded in hunting, so he did not choose to take you back to the tribe immediately, but asked you to stay in the cave and wait for him to succeed in hunting. This is too dangerous for you. He should not insist on hunting without considering the safety of the sub-beasts. I hope you can forgive him." There was an apologetic look on his face.

"We didn't teach him well." Xia patted Qiu Ye's shoulder soothingly, and like Qiu Ye, looked at Meng Yuqing apologetically.

Xuan kept staring at the ground in front of him, looking guilty and not daring to look at Meng Yuqing.

Seeing this scene and hearing these words, Meng Yuqing couldn't sit still. He almost jumped up and said anxiously.

"No, no, that's not the case. I'm already very lucky to have met Xuan. He did a lot to protect me, but I caused him a lot of trouble. He was obviously hunting dangerous beasts, but he still had to worry about my safety all the time."

Qiu Ye looked at Meng Yuqing in surprise. His reaction was quite big.

After all, Meng Yuqing had just arrived in this world and was protected by the system. Although he had a certain understanding of the dangers of this world, he still did not clearly know how dangerous a sub-beast was in the wild.

In the wild, without the protection of orcs, it is almost the same as death, and it is so risky for Xuanliu, a sub-beast, to stay alone in the cave.

Xuan looked at him in disbelief. Although he knew that Meng Yuqing had never blamed him, he never thought that Meng Yuqing would think this way. He even thought that he was causing trouble for himself.

"Don't be nervous, sit down. Eat something first, the broth will get cold soon." Qiu Ye immediately changed the subject to comfort Meng Yuqing.

Only then did Meng Yuqing realize that her overreaction had caused them to misunderstand her.

Sitting down, holding up the bowl and taking a sip of the broth, Meng Yuqing's eyes narrowed. It was so delicious. He was about to cry after eating barbecue for several days in a row. He immediately started to eat it in big mouthfuls.

"Slow down, don't choke, there's still a lot left." He looked at Meng Yuqing who was eating without even raising her head, a trace of kindness flashing in his eyes.

He accidentally glanced at Xuan, who was also staring at Meng Yuqing blankly. He paused slightly and his tone became gentler.

"You can consider this place as your tribe, as your home. We are all your people, your family."

Hearing Qiu Ye's words, Meng Yuqing stopped moving, but did not raise his head. He blinked until the tears in his eyes were suppressed, and then he nodded slightly.

.........

When I was lying in the room prepared by the clan leader, the system finally sent a notification that the task was completed.
