A dark color clearly flashed across Xilan Meng's eyes. Seeing this, Ye Luoxing looked at the pile of wooden boards on the ground. She said to Xilan Meng, "Thank you. You guys are in a bad mood..."
"It's okay. The orcs in the West are just noisy like that. Don't take it to heart. It will be fine soon." Xilan Meng still didn't give her a cold face.
He walked towards her: "Your thanks seem sincere this time."
Ye Luoxing smiled and said, "I am sincere most of the time. You really helped us just now."
Xilan Meng looked at him unclearly and said, "I said I wouldn't let anything happen to you and your friends. I'm glad you're okay."
Ye Luoxing glanced at the pile of wooden boards on the ground. She seemed to have guessed Xilan Meng's purpose, but she still asked, "What are these?"
"Didn't you say you wanted to rest here? Those wooden chairs are very hard. They're fine for sitting on, but definitely not for sleeping for a long time. So I dismantled the nest next door and moved it here for you. I'll cover these wooden boards with thick animal skins later, and then you can have a good rest." Xilan Meng answered her seriously and bent down to start building those wooden boards.
He looked around and finally fixed his eyes on the bed, then walked over holding the wooden board.
Seeing this, Ye Luoxing hurriedly stood up to help. She and Xilan Meng moved the wooden boards over one by one and set them up.
During the process, Ye Luoxing looked at the male beast beside her. She wanted to thank him again, but it seemed that she had said thank you too many times.
"Captain Ye, this mermaid is very mobile, and I thought they would stop you by force." Yue Shang's voice sounded in his mind, with a bit of surprise. Obviously, he did not expect Xilan Meng's behavior.
Not only did it not expect it, Ye Luoxing also did not expect that the respect given by Xilan Meng was beyond her expectations.
Clearly, he and Pochen had strongly tried to stop her from staying here, but after she insisted, he got up and left. He thought they would do something, but who knew Xilan Meng would actually take Pochen to the next room and dismantle the bed...
He respected her choice and did not force her to stop, and he also prevented Pochen from harming Fenghe...
"He is indeed very proactive." Ye Luoxing glanced at the bouquet of flowers beside the nest and the grilled fish she had just eaten.
Regardless of whether this orc was pretending, his actions at this moment were indeed not annoying and were actually very comforting...
Of course, when facing this kind of orc, especially now that Feng He is by your side, you must always remain vigilant!
"Have you always been so careful in your work?" Ye Luoxing spoke to him.
"Well..." Xilan Meng looked at her and smiled, "But when it comes to the females I like, I will be more careful."
Ye Luoxing was silent. It was true that an orc like Xilan Meng had various habits that could not be acted out in a single performance.
It only proves that he has always been such an orc...
Not sure if she had spoken first, Xilan Meng also spoke to her softly: "Pochen has a bad temper, but many of the exotic beasts in Yancheng don't dislike him. His father died when he was very young, and his mother died early as well. He was raised by his tribe, so he cares about the beastmen in Yancheng very much."
Xilan Meng actually told her about Pochen. Ye Luoxing had some guesses in her mind, but she didn't say anything.
Then, Xilan Meng seemed to be lost in thought. He continued, "Do you know how Pochen's father died?"
Ye Luoxing looked at the orc beside her. She still didn't ask anything, because she knew Feng He was also listening.
However, Hirammon still answered his own question: "His father was killed by the beast from the north."
"..." Ye Luoxing and Yueshang remained silent. The feud between the North and the West had been a mess since they had known when it started.
Perhaps hatred will last for generations...
Feng He heard Xilan Meng's words. He wanted to say something, but Xilan Meng's voice sounded again.
He didn't know if he was interrupting Feng He intentionally, but he actually said this to her: "As for Po Chen, he hates the orcs of the North. Because he has successively lost his father, mother, and many of his close companions, his personality has become increasingly cold. I think in this situation, some of his actions are understandable, right?"
Ye Luoxing frowned slightly. She was more like a listener at this moment, not interrupting or expressing any opinions.
Xilan Meng hadn't finished his words yet, even glancing at the wind on the nest before continuing, "Of course, I also know that we orcs from the West have killed orcs from the North, and they too have lost companions. However, the feud between the West and the North has lasted for too many years, and the right and wrong are no longer clear. We each only protect our own territory and the orcs we care about."
"So... Lolo, it's normal for us to hate the northern beasts and for the northern beasts to hate us, and you don't get involved. Of course, you can easily get involved..." Xilan Meng said this ambiguous sentence with his eyes deep and unfathomable.
Ye Luoxing was surprised because Xilan Meng actually said that it was normal to hate each other.
They hated the beasts of the north, and they also accepted their hatred, as if it were a gamble where the winner would be king and the loser would be a bandit...
They don’t know who will win or lose in the future, but they don’t care.
The animal world—is this really the cruel law of the jungle?
No, it’s not just the animal world, isn’t the seemingly civilized future world like this as well?
The weak have no say over the strong! That's why we need to keep getting stronger! Keep getting stronger!
Even if it's not to protect your loved ones and companions, you must protect yourself...
Feng Hedu frowned at Xilan Meng's words. This mermaid beast was not only scheming, but he could also "attack her heart". He would capture her heart.
There was sincerity in his cunning. He liked Luo Xing, he really liked Luo Xing, but he was too complicated and too calculating...
Most of the beasts in the west and north could not say or think of the words he said. At least, Feng He had never heard these words from any orc. This was the first time he heard these words... and he was speechless for a moment.
"Elder, I have brought all the animal skins." Li Zhuo's voice sounded at the door.
Ye Luoxing looked back and saw Li Zhuo standing there holding a pile of animal skins. When he saw Ye Luoxing coming, he walked in.
At this time, the wooden boards had been laid out. Xilan Meng took the animal skins from Li Zhuo and carefully laid them out for her one by one, straightening each edge and corner as if afraid of hurting her. One layer, two layers, three layers... In the end, Ye Luoxing didn't know how many layers he had laid.
After finishing, he pressed it with his hands to make sure it was comfortable. Then he turned to her with a charming smile: "It's done."
Ye Luoxing was about to speak when Xilan Meng in front of him asked, "Lolo, I want to talk to you for a moment. Can you come out with me?"
