But for some reason, she felt panicked, threw down the wooden stick, and ran into the house.
The snake-beastman persisted, following after them and snarling, "You're not getting away until you hand over the meat!"
The other orcs were also curious and followed them into the house.
Inside the room, on the stone bed, the four children were crying so hard they were about to faint, while Qingchen lay unconscious on the bed, bloodstains on the corner of his mouth, and there was also a lot of blood around the stone bed.
It is clear that Qingchen knew the children were in danger, and he was so angry that he vomited blood.
Shen Miao quickly checked Qing Chen's pulse and secretly breathed a sigh of relief; thankfully, his pulse was still there.
Turning her head, her expression turned incredibly fierce. She stared at the snake-beastman and said, word by word, "Snake-beastman, you broke into my home, kidnapped my cub, and caused my beastman to be so frightened that he vomited so much blood. If you don't compensate me, don't even think about leaving this house. I, Chen Miao, am not someone to be bullied!"
Seeing that things were going badly, the snake-beastman was already trying to run away.
He never expected that Qingchen, that sickly fellow, would be so weak that he would vomit blood just from being frightened.
Now, even if he was in the right, he was in the wrong.
But the orcs blocked his way, and he couldn't escape. He could only say, with a fierce but weak voice, "What does it have to do with me that he fainted? It's because he's weak!"
"If you and your baby hadn't caused trouble, he wouldn't have fainted."
The beastmen felt great sympathy for Shen Miao at this moment.
Qingchen's condition was clearly not good. Without the beastmen, how would she live in the future? She had four cubs to raise.
The cat-beastman stepped forward and said, "I think the snake-beastman was wrong in this matter. There's nothing wrong with Shen Miao demanding compensation. With Qing Chen like that, he'll need someone to take care of him every day. If no one hunts, what will his family eat?"
"That's right, snake-beastman, you should go back and get some meat."
The snake-beastman was furious, glaring at those who were speaking, wishing he could fight them.
Of course, there were also those who sided with the snake-beastman, feeling that Shen Miao's words were unreliable and that her character was inherently flawed. There were also those in the middle who advised both sides to compromise, saying it would be better for everyone.
How could Shen Miao possibly back down?
If she backs down today, others will come to bully her and her orphanage another day!
Thinking of this, a dark glint flashed in Shen Miao's eyes.
She mentally summoned a supermarket, picked out realgar, held it in her hand, and walked step by step toward the snake-beastman. Only when she stood in front of him did she ask, "You refuse to compensate me?"
"No, why should I pay compensation? You're the ones who should pay!" the snake-beastman retorted stubbornly.
Shen Miao coldly said, "Then how about my orc vomiting blood? I spent a lot of meat to change his medicine, and now that he's vomiting blood, all the previous data is wasted. Who will compensate me for this?!"
The snake-beastman, certain that Shen Miao couldn't do anything to him, scoffed, "That's your problem, it has nothing to do with me."
“That’s well said. It’s none of your business. Why don’t we go to the clan chief and ask him to reason with us and let him handle it?” Shen Miao said calmly, taking the opportunity to sprinkle realgar on the snake-beastman.
The snake-beastman, oblivious to the danger, continued to shout, "Why bother the clan leader with such a trivial matter? Do you think he'll even listen to you?"
"Whether I pay attention to you or not is my business. You're coming with me." Shen Miao made a move to drag him out.
The snake-beastman was anxious and refused to leave. Just as he was about to shake off Shen Miao's hand, his body suddenly went limp and he collapsed to the ground.
The small snake on his body was in the same situation.
The snake-beastman tried to exert force, but couldn't. He was shocked and shouted, "What have you done to me, Shen Miao? You vicious female beast, you actually used a sneak attack!"
Shen Miao curled her lips, but there was no smile in her eyes. "You bullied the weak, and even the heavens couldn't stand it anymore, so you ended up like this. There's nothing more to say. Come with me to see the clan leader."
At this moment, the snake-beastman was powerless and could only be manipulated by others. He knew that what awaited him when he arrived at the chieftain's place would certainly not be a good thing.
So you absolutely must not go.
The snake-beastman's eyes darted around, then he collapsed to the ground with a thud, howling like a banshee, "I have no meat! My family is starving, where would I get meat for you?"
He rolled around on the ground, screaming and yelling, even more shrewish than a shrew.
Shen Miao ignored him and instead addressed the other beastmen, saying, "I don't believe the snake beastman that he has no prey at home. Do you all believe him? If not, come with me to his home and take a look."
The orcs, always eager for chaos, agreed louder than anything else.
If there's excitement to be had, why not take it?
The snake-beastman panicked. If these people really went to his house, he was afraid he wouldn't be able to keep the meat in his house.
This cunning and insatiably greedy giant snake finally gave in. It glared at Shen Miao and roared, "It's just meat, I'll give it to you!"
