Upon hearing this, Xiaolu sighed, knowing that the other person's words were ill-intentioned and that they had other motives.
While trying not to laugh at Xiaoyu's words, Xiaolu looked up and said, "The problem is, you're still going. You're afraid this family will mistreat you, so you're asking me to go. Am I right?"
Little Deer spoke up, explaining that he, like Little Fish, was a beastman from the Leopard Clan. When he first arrived here, he was there to work, even though the tribe's breeding farm was strict.
It was safer and more humane than other tribes. When they said they would choose someone to go to someone else's house, almost everyone backed down. Huo Qiu simply chose to draw lots.
Because she was a slave in someone else's home, no one could tell her whether the family was good or not, or whether they would beat her or not give her food. Huo Qiu never told anyone who the family she was going to was.
Under these circumstances, Xiaoyu drew the lot, but the other party gave it to her. Xiaolu came to see the other party this time only because the other party told her something.
"Do you really know where my sister is?" Upon hearing this, Xiaoyu looked at the deer in front of her.
“I know which tribe your sister was sold to, but you have to switch places with me. That place was originally mine, and I want to work for that family.” He regretted it after the deer left.
Because later I found out that the people who went there were from Haitang's family. Not only that, during these days I met Xiaolu. She was a year younger than me, but she had grown much taller, stronger and more intimidating.
Upon hearing this, the little deer said, "That's impossible. We are slaves and have no right to choose our masters."
“Then you made a mistake. You made a mistake, and the tribe will definitely choose someone to go to her. Then I can go.” Little Fish said. He had been trying to get in touch with Little Deer these days.
The problem is that these slaves can't leave the farm. They only go there this year when it's wheat harvesting. They rarely encounter this before, but this time they did, and they were talking to the other party about their sister.
Upon hearing this, Little Deer frowned at Little Fish. "Don't you want your sister anymore?" Little Deer lowered her head and remained silent, and she did the same thing on the way back.
Little Deer is an orc from the Leopard Clan. Her parents initially did quite well in the Leopard Clan, but her father died in an accident, and then another orc from the Leopard Clan married her mother.
The mother didn't want to take two burdens with her, and the orc was in a similar situation, so she abandoned them in the race-specific area. In the race-specific area, when members of the leopard tribe wanted supplies, they would directly select people, brand them, and sell them.
My younger sister has been eating very little for years and looks extremely thin. The orcs in the tribe didn't want her and she was too young to be raised, so they just sold her off. Xiaoyu went with her at that time.
Later, Xiaoyu was pulled back, and then she and Xiaoyu went to be sold again. They went to the human traffickers and wandered around to several places. They were trained, beaten, and tortured before finally arriving at the Tiger Tribe.
He asked several times where his sister had been sold, but he stopped asking later. What was the point of asking? He was a slave; what could he possibly do?
It's impossible for a slave to try to save others. Under such circumstances, he gradually gave up, but he didn't expect that it was Xiaoyu who brought it up this time. The thought that had been extinguished in his heart resurfaced, but he quickly shook his head.
"Little deer, what's wrong?" Xiaohe, eating dried sweet potato, ran up to her. "Are you unhappy?" Xiaohe asked, looking at the little deer in front of her.
"No, I was just thinking about some things. Let's go back." He shook his head as he looked at Xiaohe. What was the point of thinking about those things? What can't be changed, can't be changed.
Xiaohe nodded and followed Xiaolu back, but felt that Xiaolu seemed a bit too obedient. Xiaolu didn't say anything and just went back like that. She was absent-minded while eating. Haitang looked at Xiaolu.
Looking directly at Xiaolu, he asked, "Did something happen?" Upon hearing this, Xiaolu lowered her head, her eyes reddening.
He and his younger sister depended on each other for several years when they were children. Later, his sister was sold, and he tried desperately to pull her away, but was kicked away by the people of the Leopard Tribe.
Now that she's living a good life, I wonder where my sister is? Actually, Little Deer thought that maybe my sister is doing very well. After all... females are a scarce resource in many tribes.
"Is there anything you can tell us? We're family," Haitang said to the deer, who in turn looked at Haitang.
"Actually, I went to see the slaves at the farm today." Haitang paused slightly and nodded, looking at Xiaolu and waiting for her to speak. Xiaolu said, "That person told me that he knows where my sister was sold to, and that he'll let me switch places with him if I want..."
"So, someone wants you to go back to the farm and then come to my house? That's impossible. If I need more people, I'll buy younger people instead of asking for them from the farm. Besides, it's my choice, and no one can control me." Haitang looked at the deer and said, "So there's no use in you being silly."
"I didn't do anything stupid, I just..." Xiao Lu lowered her head, and Haitang looked at Xiao Lu.
“If he really knows, he’ll get his hands on it someday. Even if you really switch places this time, what can you do? As a human, can you survive outside your tribe?” Haitang said, looking at the little deer in front of her.
