In the courtyard.
With the Five Treasures protecting them, the kittens stayed obediently on the wooden plank and didn't run around anymore.
Su Tang looked at them lying there, looking at her with pleading eyes, feeling a pang of pity.
It makes it seem like she's abusing them!
So he found a comb and squatted on the wooden board to groom the kittens.
This way the fur can dry faster.
The kittens love being groomed; they rub their heads against Su Tang's comb and quickly become lively.
Of course, besides the four treasures.
As Su Tang combed her hair, the half-dry tail swept across her face, but she didn't find it annoying at all.
She even used her free hand to scratch the baby's chin and pat its head, and would occasionally hug it and take a sniff, thoroughly enjoying herself.
Both of them thoroughly enjoyed it.
On the distant hills.
Watching Su Tang interact with the tiger cubs, Hu Shen sighed inwardly once again.
She was such a gentle female; she not only bathed the tiger cubs herself but also played with them.
The females of Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain never raise their cubs themselves; they feed them and then hand them over to the males.
Young cubs this big run all over the mountain, getting all dirty, and the females don't care about them at all.
Orcs naturally cannot understand the pleasure humans find in petting cats.
And so it was.
Hu Shen's filter for Su Tang has become even stronger.
Sibao lay lazily at Sutang's feet.
It was sleeping with its eyes half-closed when it suddenly shook its tail and started wagging restlessly.
"Ha~~"
Su Tang looked down when she heard the sound and found that Si Bao had stood up at some point, adopting a defensive and wary posture, and breathing on the outside of the yard.
"What's wrong, Sibao? Is there something outside?"
Su Tang looked curiously out of the courtyard.
She had barely finished speaking when a commotion erupted outside.
"See! I told you so, there are orcs living here!"
"Great! We finally don't have to keep wandering anymore!"
"Go check inside, see if there are any orcs. Why is it so quiet? Could it be that no orcs live there?"
Immediately afterwards, footsteps approached the courtyard.
Su Tang quickly got up and went outside.
A group of disheveled and thin orcs gathered not far away, looking in the direction of the wooden house and chattering amongst themselves.
Several slightly stronger males were probing closer to the cabin.
Some of the bolder cubs had already picked up stones from the ground and thrown them at the courtyard wall.
"Stop!" Su Tang shouted when she saw their actions.
The beasts looked over at the sound and were stunned to see a fair-skinned, beautiful female who seemed to have stepped out of a dream.
Are they dreaming?
Are they already dead? Otherwise, how could such clean and beautiful females emerge from the wood?
Lion Feather, standing at the end of the line, glanced at the females outside the courtyard gate.
He was quite surprised, not expecting to find such a beautiful female outside the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain.
She wasn't afraid at all when she saw so many strange orcs.
He had never seen such a bold female before.
The cubs that had been smashing the wall quickly dropped their stones, hid behind the male, and stammered an explanation:
"I...I just wanted to see if this piece of wood was sturdy enough..."
Hearing the commotion, Lin Xia and Xiao Fu, who were inside the house, also came out.
Upon seeing such a large group of orcs, Xiao Fu immediately went to the field to call Da Qing, Su Guodong, and Su Shiwei, who was whittling wood in the open space.
After calling out to his family, he immediately went to find the leader of the gray wolves.
"Tangtang, why are there so many orcs again? Could they be here to rob us like last time?" Lin Xia worriedly gripped her hoe.
Feeling that it wasn't quite right for him, he secretly picked up the large stone axe used for chopping firewood by the wall.
Su Tang glanced at the heavy axe in her mother's hand, weighing dozens of kilograms, then looked at the group of old, weak, sick, and disabled orcs opposite her, and fell into deep thought.
She felt that it was still uncertain who was robbing whom.
"Where are you from, and what do you want?" Su Tang looked at the orcs opposite her and asked loudly.
The skinny male standing in front quickly replied:
"Our tribe was destroyed, and we fled here. We want to join your tribe, is that alright?"
The orcs behind them looked on curiously.
Why is this tribe so small?
Su Tang and Lin Xia suddenly realized that these orcs were just like them back then, having fled here.
The wariness in the mother and daughter's eyes faded, but they did not let their guard down.
“This isn’t a tribe. Go to the valley ahead; there’s a gray wolf tribe there,” Su Tang explained.
She noticed there were females among the orcs, and the gray wolf leader should be happy to take them in.
Upon hearing this, all the beasts were dumbfounded.
Not a tribe?
How can this female, who lives outside the tribe, live so well?
How is that possible!
"Daughter! What happened? Who are these beastmen? If they want to bully my daughter and my wife, they'll have to get over me first..."
Su Guodong and the other two rushed back in a hurry.
He also thought these orcs were there to rob him, so he picked up a hoe and was about to attack.
The hoe was so heavy that it almost smashed Su Shiwei and Da Qing's heads first.
Lin Xia's lips twitched, and she snatched the hoe back, explaining the situation. Only then did Su Guodong realize that he had misunderstood.
The orcs were preparing to leave.
Suddenly, an orc saw Da Qing behind Su Tang, and a blue mark was particularly noticeable on his forehead.
The orc's eyes widened, and he pointed at the large blue beast, crying out in terror:
"Wandering orcs! There are wandering orcs here!"
The other orcs also showed expressions of fear upon hearing this.
