Qingchen said helplessly, "There's no right or wrong, these are the rules."
Shen Miao found it hard to believe that Qing Chen's attitude was just as indifferent as that of the tribal beastmen.
Do they really think life is so worthless?
"Calm down," Qingchen said calmly. "This has always been the way of the tribe. We need powerful male beasts, female beasts that can bear offspring, and offspring that can ensure the continuation of the tribe. We don't need deformed children."
Shen Miao knew that Qing Chen was right.
In the orcish era, where wild beasts roamed and survival depended on sheer force, a deformed child was nothing. Even within the tribe, orcs who had made significant contributions could be abandoned after being injured.
The laws of the beastmen are just that cruel.
But she still couldn't accept it.
"Subtle and profound..."
Shen Miao waved her hand, "Stop talking, let me have some peace and quiet."
Qingchen sighed and had no choice but to walk away, leaving her alone.
For several days in a row, Shen Miao's mood was not very high. She knew that there was something wrong with her mentality, but she did not want to adjust it. Later, when she passed by the place where the rat beastmen buried their cubs again, she stood in front of the small grave mound for a while and stuck a large bouquet of flowers on it.
These are all wildflowers she picked from the roadside, in all sorts of colors, so vibrant and cute, the little ones will definitely love them.
She hoped that the baby would be reborn into a good family in his next life and not be called a monster again.
That day, no one was home. When Shen Miao returned from outside, she suddenly heard a thumping sound coming from her room. Her heart skipped a beat. What was going on? Had someone sneaked into the house to steal something again?
I couldn't help but quicken my pace.
He rushed to the door in a few strides, and without any attempt to conceal himself, he pushed the door open. The room was completely empty.
Shen Miao went inside and checked every corner thoroughly. She then went to the window and carefully examined even the cracks in the window, but found nothing unusual.
She is exactly as she was when she left, just as she is now.
The only difference is that the egg in the corner has somehow rolled to the middle of the room.
Shen Miao picked up the golden eagle egg, patted it gently with suspicion, and whispered, "Did you run to the middle of the room by yourself?"
Otherwise, there's no way to explain it.
She had already checked and confirmed that no one had entered the house. The golden eagle eggs were placed in a nest in the corner of the house. The nest was made of dry grass and large animal hides. Not to mention an egg, even a slightly smaller chick could not easily leave the nest.
So here's the question: how did this smooth egg get out?
What was that thumping sound?
Just as she was wondering, the golden eagle egg in her hand suddenly jumped off her palm and crashed heavily to the ground with a thud.
Shen Miao was startled and instinctively tried to catch the egg, but she quickly discovered that the golden eagle egg was completely unharmed after hitting the ground.
Moreover, it kept jumping around like a child, having a great time.
Shen Miao automatically added a giggling sound to the scene in her mind, feeling that the scene was really strangely eerie. She quickly shook her head to shake off the strange thought.
The golden eagle egg kept jumping around Shen Miao. Worried that it would make her dizzy, Shen Miao quickly stopped it and said, "Stop jumping. I know you're very happy right now. Are you coming out?"
Shen Miao reached out her hand, and the egg ran to her hand on its own, obediently lying down.
Upon hearing Shen Miao's question, it jumped up, as if it wanted to nod, but unfortunately it had no head to nod, as its whole body was completely naked.
Shen Miao patted its body, "You can't cause any trouble now that you're coming out. Go back to your nest and stay there."
She was truly amazed; she had never seen an egg like the golden eagle's egg, whose shell didn't break even after being handled like that.
The golden eagle egg seemed to have returned to being an unknowing and unaware egg, no matter how Shen Miao put it into the nest.
Shen Miao, still worried, instructed, "Don't run around like that again. Wait until you've hatched before you come out, understand?"
The golden eagle egg was about to jump up again, but Shen Miao was afraid it might hurt itself by jumping too hard, so she quickly stopped it and said with a headache, "Alright, alright, I know what you're going to say. Just remember, you can't leave this nest before you come out, otherwise if someone finds you, they'll catch you and roast and eat you."
She had to scare the little creature. From what she observed, it was quite bold, and Shen Miao was afraid that it would often come out for a stroll, which would attract a crowd.
Thinking she had reached an agreement with the golden eagle egg, Shen Miao was in a very good mood when an angry growl came from outside, "Shen Miao, keep your little brat in check!"
Shen Miao was startled, thinking something serious had happened. She hurriedly ran out of the house and saw several cubs surrounding the snow wolf. One was pulling the fur on its head, another was pulling the fur on its rump, and two others were nestled on its belly, their little hands clutching the long, snow-white wolf fur, giggling.
"Hehe, Mommy, the snow wolf's fur feels so nice to touch."
The babies pulled Chen Miao out and eagerly shared their feelings, describing how soft and delicate it was, how warm it was, and how they could bury themselves in it to sleep.
Shen Miao was captivated by the sight and longed to touch it, but the snow wolf wasn't a real animal; it could transform into human form, which restricted all her actions.
But watching the little ones pet the wolves is quite nice.
The snow wolf couldn't stand being touched anymore and had no choice but to transform into human form. The cubs were quite disappointed, and Erbao asked matter-of-factly, "Snow wolf, why did you have to turn into a human? It's so annoying!"
The snow wolf pointed to the white fur that had been plucked off on the ground and said sternly, "If I don't turn into a human, I'll go bald."
The little ones chuckled softly.
Shen Miao couldn't help but laugh. She thought of her previous life, where many people liked to keep cats because cats were very easy to pet. Some people even petted cats so much that they wanted to pet them until they were bald.
At this moment, the snow wolf looked exactly like a kitten whose fur had stood on end from being petted so much.
Seeing her smile, the snow wolf assumed she was condoning the cubs' disrespect and became furious, shouting, "Chen Miao, you're still smiling! I'm bald! If I become ugly, are you going to take responsibility?"
"It's okay, it's okay, not ugly at all, actually quite good-looking, especially handsome." Shen Miao quickly smoothed his hair down.
The snow wolf huffed and puffed, and said resentfully, "I'm not a little wolf anymore. You don't really care about me at all. I can't stay in this house anymore. I'm going to run away from home."
The little wolf was upset and was about to go berserk.
Jiuying, who had followed behind, quickly smoothed things over, "Alright, Brother Wolf, calm down. It's not that serious. It's just a few cubs playing with you. There's no need to worry."
