Chapter 83: The Tidal Night of the Mermaids
The heavy rain has continued for eight days with no sign of stopping.
Ever since they had a frank conversation that day, Teng and Bai Cang looked at her more like the apple of their eye.
Perhaps they were worried that one day she would suddenly return to the arms of the Beast God.
The three of them stayed in the cave. Fu Ying gave prenatal education to the cub in her belly from time to time, and drew some pictures for Teng and Bai Cang from time to time, which made the two males run around in circles.
"What story do you want to hear today?" Fu Ying tapped the bulging belly with his fingertips from time to time.
In a few days, she will give birth, and the cub in her belly is becoming more and more active.
As soon as he finished speaking, Fu Ying caught a glimpse of Teng and Bai Cang who suddenly pricked up their ears.
These two big fools had never heard any stories since they were young. Ever since she started giving prenatal education to the cubs, their enthusiasm for listening to stories has increased greatly, and it has become a compulsory course in the cave after dinner.
"Didn't we talk about Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs last time?" Fu Ying's voice was very soft, and he deliberately dragged out the ending tone when he said this. A sly smile flashed in his narrow eyes.
As soon as he finished speaking, Bai Cang came over.
He held a few washed wild fruits in his hand, sat down naturally beside the bed, handed them over and said, "Eat first."
Fu Ying's lips curled slightly as she played with the bright red fruit in her hands before continuing, "Snow White has skin as white as snow and hair as black as ebony. She is very beautiful..."
Bai Cang lowered his eyes and stared at her opening and closing red lips. His fluffy white tail unconsciously came around from behind and gently wrapped around her wrist. The tip of the tail swept across her wrist from time to time, bringing a ticklish feeling.
Teng was not to be outdone. He roasted the most tender meat, sprinkled seasoning on it evenly, carefully tore off a small piece, blew on it cautiously, and fed it to Fu Ying's mouth. His warm breath brushed the corner of her lips: "Be careful, it's hot."
The posture was as if he was not feeding a piece of barbecue, but offering some fragile treasure.
Fu Ying couldn't help but chuckle, and deliberately opened her mouth slowly, and her tongue tip accidentally brushed against his fingertips.
Teng's dark green pupils straightened instantly, his Adam's apple rolled, but his face remained tense, and he pretended to be calm as he continued to tear off a piece of meat, but this time he blew it longer, and his movements were a little ambiguous.
Bai Cang narrowed his eyes and coiled the tip of his snow-white tail even tighter.
These two guys would usually engage in some "intrigue" and competition, vying for favor more actively than the women in harem dramas. As the one being flattered, she quite enjoyed it.
Bai Cang's amber eyes gently swept over the barbecue in Teng's hand, and his voice was lingering, interrupting his ambiguous tactics of winning favor: "Last time you asked me about Danyue..."
He paused deliberately, and Fu Ying's attention was quickly drawn to him.
Her eyebrows moved slightly, and she looked at Bai Cang: "Danyue's shark tail scale is still with me, I have to find him."
Bai Cang looked at her serious expression and said, "When I went to the cave, there were only some lingering auras of the sea creatures. They should have left long ago."
"You thought you knew, tsk." Teng glanced at Bai Cang with a sneer in his face.
Fu Ying pursed her lips, lowered her eyes, and thought about Tan Yue.
The location of the contract pattern was not clear, which meant that Danyue was indeed very far away from her.
Teng pondered for a moment and said, "Danyue is a sea creature. Although he can no longer enter the deep sea, he can just find an isolated island to hide on, which will leave land orcs like us helpless."
"The Orc Continent is already vast, and the Sea Tribe's territory is even more expansive." Fu Ying turned to look outside the cave, his gaze faraway. "Perhaps, when the ocean tide carries the mermaid's song, we'll be able to find him."
Danyue's greatest wish is to return to his tribe, but without the shark tail, he is destined to be exiled.
On the night of the full silver moon, thousands of mermen will appear on the vast ocean.
They float out from the waves and sit on the rocks, their colorful tail scales reflecting the flowing moonlight, and they sing in unison the ancient songs unique to the mermaids with the rhythm of the tides. This is the "Tidal Night" of the Orc Continent.
The waves push pearls, corals and various rare seafood onto the shore like a gift.
The tribes bordering the sea would go to the beach to pick up these gifts every tidal night.
The Oasis Tribe is by the sea, so Fu Ying knows it very well.
Teng nodded: "I'll go with you then."
The Cangshan tribe is also near the sea, so he is no stranger to this.
"We have to wait until the next hunting season to see the full moon." Bai Cang said in a low voice.
Although he had left the oasis tribe for a long time, the mysterious "tidal night" of the mermaids was still deeply engraved in his memory. It was the night when the first full moon rose after the rainy season ended.
Fu Ying's fingertips gently stroked the bulging belly, a gentle smile on the corner of her lips: "No rush, we're here at the Tide Nightclub. The most important thing now is to give birth to this little guy safely."
Bai Cang lowered his eyes to look, a smile on his lips, and a seductive curve appeared at the corners of his eyes.
Teng tilted his head slightly, his deep brows casting a shadow. His dark green pupils stared at Fu Ying without blinking, his voice low and slow: "You promised before... to give me cubs."
The last part of his voice dropped slightly, with a hint of grievance.
Fu Ying was stunned and couldn't help laughing when he saw the expression on Teng's face.
She reached out and poked Teng's tense chest, a sly smile in her eyes as she said seriously, "Wait until this noisy little guy in my belly is born..."
She deliberately dragged out her words, looking at the tips of Teng's ears that unconsciously stood up. Suddenly, the corners of her lips curved up, and a charming smile flashed across her beautiful eyes and brows: "Just give birth to cubs for us Teng!"
The mission target is chasing closely behind, wow, this feels quite fresh.
Bai Cang reached out and gently touched Fu Ying's bulging belly, pretending not to hear what the two said.
He was already very happy to be the first male among her beast husbands to have cubs.
At this moment, a rapid wolf howl suddenly sounded outside the cave, followed by a shout: "Teng!"
Teng turned his head impatiently and looked over. He walked to the edge of the cave, his dark green eyes locked on the embarrassed gray wolf orc in the rainstorm, and said in a cold voice: "What's the matter!"
The Gray Wolf Orc hurriedly held up the prey in his hand and said, "This is... for the witch doctor!"
He added hastily, his voice nearly drowned out by the torrential rain, "Xishan said she'll come over and thank the witch doctor in person when she feels better!"
Fu Ying heard the voice and glanced outside the cave nonchalantly: "No need, let him take it back."
She didn't save Xishan for these reasons. However, before Teng could speak, the gray wolf orc had already placed the prey gently at the entrance of the cave in fear and trepidation, and disappeared in the heavy rain in the blink of an eye.
Teng looked at the prey at his feet, frowned, and carried it into the cave.
However, as soon as he came in, Fu Ying smelled a foul odor.
She covered her mouth and nose, looked at the prey in Teng's hand, and frowned: "This... is broken?"
The movement of the snake suddenly stopped, and its bony fingers pinched the prey in its hand, which already had a strange smell.
His drooping brows looked particularly gloomy in the rain, and his voice was filled with an unbreakable solemnity: "This year's rainy season... came too early. In such hot and humid weather, the prey can no longer survive."
The smell of rotten meat mixed in the humid air, and Bai Cang's expression also began to become heavy.
