"Why?" he asked puzzled.
"No reason, because I want to do this." Ye Luoxing sat by the fire, where there were fresh fruits.
However, after eating too much of these things in the beast world, she felt that she was in great need of staple food. After all, she was an Eastern human. Thinking of the pile of rice she saw a group of vegetarian beasts carrying a long time ago, Ye Luoxing suddenly felt a little greedy. If only she could exchange it for some rice...
She suddenly turned towards Yue Huang, which startled Yue Huang who had just caught up with her and made him look confused.
"Do you know rice? The white, hard, small grains of this shape, the kind that some vegetarians eat..." Ye Luoxing used the sticks she had used to eat to draw the shape of rice on the ground for him. Since he was so barbaric and domineering and didn't intend to let her go, she couldn't leave for a day or two. Why should she be polite to the orc who imprisoned her? She had suffered a lot.
Yue Huang looked down at the pattern she drew. In fact, he knew what she was talking about as soon as she opened her mouth.
He looked at her in surprise and guessed, "You... like to eat this?"
Ye Luoxing smiled and nodded, without any emotion: "Yes."
Yue Huang seemed to have discovered a new world in an instant. Even though he had known her for so long, he seemed to have never heard her say what she liked.
The other orcs didn't know either. He thought... the orcs in Midnight City didn't know either...
But now, he knew.
Yue Huang immediately smiled and said, "I'll find it for you. As many as you want."
He answered readily. Ye Luoxing stared at him for two seconds before looking away.
Yueshang said excitedly on behalf of Ye Luoxing: "Great, we can eat rice now..."
Although Yueshang can't eat it, the aroma of rice is always soothing and it likes to smell it.
Before noon, Ye Luoxing rushed down the mountain and changed the medicine for Xilan Meng. This time, Ye Luoxing was prepared. While trying not to arouse suspicion, she replaced the medicine in her space with the medicine that would allow his wounds to heal quickly.
Today, neither Jiaxibai nor Pochen are here, but the witch doctor and Lizhuo are still here, and there is one more orc.
It was the female I had seen the previous two days.
"Hello, my name is Mag, a seven-star female of the mermaid tribe. Thank you for saving Xilanmon for our mermaid tribe." Mag introduced herself. Compared with Tis yesterday, she was not as strong and a little thinner. She had a good figure, an oval face, and Western-style deep eyebrows and eyes. Her lips and nose were small, not as majestic as Tis.
Her long orange-yellow hair was tied on both sides with animal skins and then fell in front of her chest. Ye Luoxing saw that some of the male beastmen in the city also had this hairstyle. Their hair was very long and needed to be tied up. Some middle-aged male beastmen would even wrap it around their necks.
Ye Luoxing also discovered that the mermaids' hair and tails are colorful, with almost any color...
It actually added a unique vitality to this strange beast city, just like a rainbow on the ground...
Ye Luoxing responded: "Hello, Ye Luoxing."
There was sincere gratitude in Marg's eyes, but her words also had a certain sense of claiming sovereignty. It could be sensed that she really liked Xilan Meng.
Margo leaned close to Ye Luoxing's ear and whispered, "I know you were captured, but the king beasts respect you very much. You are indeed capable. If you plan to settle here, you can tell me if there is a male beast you like. But if you like Xilan Meng, I will not let you have her. If it was any other female, I would have let her have a good time long ago. But you saved him, which is helping our mermaid tribe. We can compete fairly..."
Ye Luoxing looked at the female who distanced herself from her after saying these words. She didn't even plan to stay. She didn't know whether she had provoked an enemy or a friend.
"Mag!" Yue Huang uttered two words in a deep voice, obviously dissatisfied with some of the words in Magg's mouth.
Over there, Xilan Meng was smiling all the time. He could certainly hear Mag's whispers...
"Ye Luoxing, female, I'm sorry." Xilan Meng suddenly smiled and apologized to her, as if it was because of Mag's words.
Both females looked at him, and he was still polite. Ye Luoxing nodded, and after changing the dressing on her wound today, she turned and left.
It was still early, so Ye Luoxing did not return to the main peak. Instead, she asked Yue Huang to take her around the city, and Yue Huang did not refuse.
He took her for a walk around the city. He knew what her purpose was, and she also knew that he probably guessed her purpose.
The man and the beast understood each other tacitly, and they ate something at a place on the way. They were strolling around until dusk.
The city center was bustling, but Yue Huang never took her there.
"Do you want to go over and take a look?" Yue Huang noticed her occasional concern.
"What on earth happened over there..." Ye Luoxing felt uneasy, always afraid that something might have happened.
Yue Huang suddenly stopped and turned to her: "If you want to go, I will take you to see it."
He grabbed her wrist and pulled her into his arms: "Let's go."
He spread his wings and flew towards the city center. Ye Luoxing watched the wooden houses quickly pass by below, and listened to the noise getting closer and closer. She heard the orcs cheering; heard their laughter and fighting; heard the loud bangs...
Soon, she saw many flying beasts appear in the sky around her, and their eyes were gradually focused on her and Yue Huang.
"King Beast!"
"King Beast!"
"King Beast..." The voices of the beastmen around came to greet each other. They seemed excited, and they were even more excited when they saw Ye Luoxing.
Yue Huang brought her to land in front of the largest bonfire in the city center. The moment Ye Luoxing landed, she finally saw the lively scene in the city center. It was not the bloody scene she had imagined, but a lively and cheerful party.
The center of Yancheng was also a large intersection. They lit the largest bonfire in the center of the intersection. Males and females were dancing happily around the bonfire, or sitting on a circle of wooden tables and chairs. When they saw Yuehuang, they all saluted, of course, with the exception of the females.
There were no wooden houses built at the four corners of the intersection. Instead, there were four symmetrical platforms. Male beasts were competing on the platforms, and on one of the platforms, a group of male beasts were gathered and cheering.
Looking around, there were many sets of wooden tables and chairs on the road, all filled with orcs.
What is this...? Ye Luoxing was puzzled.
Yue Huang quickly explained, "Every spring, the exotic beasts of each tribe take turns coming to the royal city. One reason is to exchange goods, two is to find companions, and three is to strengthen the bonds between the tribes. That's why we hold such a gathering in Yancheng every spring to celebrate the arrival of spring. This time, due to the incident with Jieye City, the gathering has been postponed."
Ye Luoxing finally understood what they were doing, but the gap between the West and the North was indeed huge. They were very good at winning people's hearts...
"How long will it last?" She remembered that it started yesterday.
"It could be as short as three days or as long as more than ten days, because the tribes will arrive one after another." Yue Huang pulled her to the side.
Ye Luoxing saw that the beastmen around her were all looking at her. Yue Huang pressed her down on a stone chair in the center of the circle and said to her, "Sit here."
