Chapter 40: See me?
"How do you know?" Mao Qi's ears twitched again, with a look of surprise on his face.
Suddenly, he realized what was happening, and he was like being struck by thunder. He asked in disbelief, "You jumped down from the Thorn Cliff just to find the Beast Crystal?"
Fu Ying nodded: "That beast crystal is very important to me. Mao Qi, is Benlang also from the Blue State Tribe?"
Mao Qi stared at Fu Ying for a long moment, then shook his head and said, "No, Benlang is an orc from the Fengyin Tribe. However, he should have handed the orc crystal over to the leader to exchange for supplies. How are you looking for it?"
Fu Ying put away the talisman paper and said seriously, "I can give you herbs to cure your father's illness. Can you take me to the Fengyin Tribe? That beast crystal is really important to me."
She kept repeating "important". Mao Qi blinked and said, "Is it your beast husband's beast crystal?"
Females don't have beast crystals, so she's obviously not looking for them for herself. But she jumped off the Cliff of Thorns to find beast crystals for her beast husband. How could that be possible? Are females really that good?
Fu Ying nodded and replied solemnly, "Yes."
Hearing this, Mao Qi's face was filled with envy, but then he shook his head: "I can't take you to the Fengyin Tribe, little female. Once you go down the Thorn Cliff, you can't go back. This is the place where the Beast God exiled you. You can't leave. It's better to live a good life here. The leader of the Fengyin Tribe is not to be trifled with."
Fu Ying frowned, and with a flick of his wrist, many medicinal herbs appeared in his palm: "I must go."
When Mao Qi saw the medicinal herbs suddenly appearing in Fu Ying's hand, he was so shocked that his eyes almost popped out.
The elders in the tribe had long said that the witch was a messenger of the Beast God traveling across the continent, and was very powerful, but he had never seen one with his own eyes. Now that he had seen one, he truly realized how powerful he was.
What made him even more astonished was that if this pile of herbs were exchanged for animal cores, how much would it be worth?
Below the Thorn Cliff, vegetation is scarce and medicinal herbs are extremely precious. Only large tribes have small stocks, so if the fallen orcs get sick, they can only endure it.
His father is seriously ill, and without medicine, he might not survive this hunting season.
Mao Qi's eyes were fixed on the herbs in Fu Ying's hand, as if he wanted to see through them.
After a moment, he gritted his teeth, as if he had made a great decision. He slowly stretched out his hand, his voice a little bitter, but also a hint of determination: "Okay! I'll take you there!"
"But don't get your hopes up too much. The leader of the Fengyin tribe... he's a little different. I'm afraid he won't easily see you. Also, I heard that the lightning beast crystal is very powerful. It might have been devoured."
Fu Ying pursed her lips and said in a serious tone, "You just need to take me there."
Hearing her say this, Mao Qi no longer hesitated, put away the herbs, and said, "Then come with me!"
Mao Qi was agile and ran very fast, like a gust of wind. Every time he ran a distance, he would stop and turn around to see if Fu Ying was following him.
The two walked for a long time in this vast sea of sand, and all they saw was yellow sand.
After an unknown amount of time, the sky began to brighten.
"We're almost there!" Mao Qi looked into the distance at the end of the yellow sand and breathed a sigh of relief.
After walking for about ten minutes, a tribe in the sand came into view.
The tribe is very large, with houses that look like small sandbags scattered at different heights. These houses are actually made of thorny vines and covered with animal skins to prevent wind and sand, giving them an exotic look.
Mao Qi brought Fu Ying forward. As soon as they got close, sentries suddenly appeared from all around and surrounded them.
One of them, with a look of alarm on his face, shouted at the top of his voice, "Mao Qi! This is the territory of the Fengyin Tribe. What are you trying to do? Are you provoking me? Are you planning to declare war?"
Mao Qi waved his hands hurriedly. Just as he was about to speak, someone suddenly screamed, "Female?!"
After he finished speaking, everyone's eyes were focused on Fu Ying. Their expressions were full of disbelief. They looked at her carefully from head to toe, as if they were looking at some rare creature.
Mao Qi blocked Fu Ying without leaving any trace and shouted, "We want to see your leader for something! Please..."
"Cat Seven, where did this little female come from? Why haven't I seen her before?"
"In our tribes, the number of females can be counted on one's fingers, but I've never seen anything like this!"
"Is the female here to join our Fengyin tribe?"
“…”
Mao Qi's words were ignored and everyone's attention was on Fu Ying.
Fu Ying looked around at the orcs of the Fengyin tribe, his eyes flashing slightly. The orcs of this tribe had one thing in common, that is, they were ugly, very ugly, and their ugliness varied.
Their facial features seemed to be randomly pieced together. The nose was not a nose, the eyes were not eyes, and some of their faces were covered with hideous scars, winding and intertwining like centipedes, which was very creepy to look at.
The males in the Orc Continent are not bad looking. Could it be that all the ugly ones are gathered in this tribe?
Mao Qi had a headache. He knew that once the females came, it would be troublesome. Other tribes had one or two females, but the Fengyin tribe had no females at all. Ultimately, they were too ugly.
At this moment, Mao Qi saw a man with sharp eyes and shouted loudly: "Run Wolf!"
Fu Ying narrowed his eyes, tapped the ground with his toes, and flew towards the direction pointed by Mao Qi like an arrow!
Her figure was as light as willow catkins, and she landed silently on the ground, blocking Benlang steadily in front of her. Her movements were smooth and her eyes were scrutinizing. "Are you Benlang? Did you pick up the Thunder Beast Crystal from the foot of the Thorn Cliff?"
This was a one-eyed male orc with dense gray-black hair covering his entire body. When he sensed Fu Ying approaching, Benlang tensed up and instantly became alert, ready to attack.
Seeing this, Mao Qi anxiously shouted, "Don't do it! We are here to see the leader!"
"Female?" Benlang also saw it clearly at this time. He looked a little surprised and confused. How could a female be so fast?
The sentries gathered around and surrounded Fu Ying, with suspicion in their eyes.
Someone shouted, "Cat Seven! Who the hell is this female?!"
Fu Ying tightly gripped the Frost Whip, stared at Benlang, and asked, "Where is the Thunder Beast Crystal you found?"
Benlang frowned, his muscles tensed, and he said hesitantly, "The beast crystal has been handed over to the leader."
"I don't have much time, take me to see your leader!" Fu Ying swung the long whip in his hand, and the biting frost rushed out, freezing the sand on the ground. A thick layer of ice shell quickly spread, and the dryness around was instantly dispelled by this cold air.
Everyone looked at each other, exchanged glances, and everyone's body was tense to the extreme.
No matter how dumb they were, they could see that this female was no pushover and was coming with a threatening attitude to cause trouble!
Just as Benlang was about to speak, a voice rang out. Its tone was low and lingering, and it was so simple that it could make anyone's ears numb: "See me?"
