Before the other orcs had time to think too much, many very thin beams of light shone on them.
They had prepared themselves for unbearable pain, but they found that the beam of light made them warm and comfortable all over.
The hidden injuries on his body seemed to have recovered, and the orcs who were injured began to upgrade.
Although it was only one level of recovery, it was a great thing for them.
But it didn't take long for this feeling to disappear.
Now they still didn't understand what this beam of light was. They were real fools, and they were even more envious of the wailers whose beams of light were so big.
After this sacrifice, almost all the orcs benefited, especially Ye Jiu's family, as the beam of light allocated to them was the thickest.
Except for a dozen or so wandering orcs who signed slave contracts, and some fox, rabbit and wolf tribes who joined later, no sacrifices were held.
After the ceremony, they dissatisfiedly asked Ono: "Why didn't you give us some?"
Xiao Ye's eyes were even colder than theirs. Too lazy to argue, she turned to Ye Jiu and said, "These people have not passed the test of the Beast God and are not loyal enough to the tribe."
As soon as she said this, many orcs without beams of light looked embarrassed.
They whispered back, "Don't we still have a totem? That means the Beast God has recognized us."
“Don’t talk nonsense, this is what the Beast God uses to restrain the tribe members. Of course, you are not counted yet.
Chief, give them slave marks so they can behave themselves."
If the tribe wants to develop well, rules are naturally indispensable, and they must be made aware of the consequences of disloyalty.
Ye Jiu had the same idea as Xiao Ye, so he naturally wouldn't try to save her face. He put the slave mark on them without saying anything.
Of course, you also have to say soothing words: "You are slaves now, but if you behave well you will be promoted to members of the tribe."
Ye Jiu still had a lot of trust in the Beast God. He had just received the beam of light, and all the slave seals that had been originally there had been removed by Ye Jiu.
This group of orcs makes up the vast majority, so there is nothing much to say about these dozens of orcs.
Seeing that they looked somewhat unconvinced, Ono was determined to deal with this villain to the end, so he spoke very rudely.
Especially these restless ones, who just now actually questioned her and wanted to put the blame on her.
“Instead of feeling resentful and complaining, it’s better to look for the problem in yourself.
Why come with you? They can easily gain the recognition of the Beast God, become members of the tribe, or even warriors, and gain benefits.
And you have nothing except totems.
If it weren't for restraining you and preventing you from betraying me, I probably wouldn't even have a totem."
Of course, the totem is not without any benefits. At least after having the totem, as the leader and priestess, she will know whether these orcs are dead or alive when they go out.
If she, the witch doctor, or the chief has strong magical powers, as long as the distance is not too far, they can help when danger occurs.
What Ono said was the truth, and these orcs could not refute it.
Seeing their dejected looks, I originally thought that they would be slaves for a long time, but now that they have become part of the tribe, I cherish them even more.
In particular, they soon discovered the difference in treatment between slaves and their tribesmen.
That was how it was settled. Most of the people in the tribe were clansmen, and there were less than fifty slaves in the end.
The winter festival is over and the bonfire party that everyone has been looking forward to finally begins.
There were more males than females, so they did not separate. They all mixed together, singing and dancing around the campfire.
The cubs were separated into another side. Bai Xiao and other male orcs with small cubs in their families wanted to be together, but were driven to the side of the adult orcs.
Thinking about the safety of the valley and the temptation to be alone with Ye Jiu finally overcame his concern for the cub.
They are a little unreliable in this matter, but these cubs are really good and take care of each other spontaneously.
They know that life is not easy now and they should cherish it.
They no longer need to wander around and avoid various dangers. As long as they help build the tribe and do their best, they can live on.
As for leaving? They hadn't even thought about it. The leader's words that day had been very clear.
If you make a mistake, you will die, but you will not be expelled.
This is a carnival for the tribesmen, and the slaves? Of course they are put in a corner.
If there were no comparison, they would not think that the things in front of them were shabby at all.
But when you compare, you naturally feel jealous.
"It's good enough to have enough to eat. Why are you so picky?" Seeing them talking for a long time, one slave became unhappy.
Now he has thought it through clearly. If he does his best and works harder, he will become an official member of the tribe sooner or later.
When he was in other tribes or wandering around before, he didn't believe that they could all have enough to eat.
I have such a good life now. Although I don’t eat as much as my fellow tribesmen, it is much better than before and much better than other slaves.
As an orc, it is important to be content.
Why are there so many orcs, but only they haven't become members of the tribe?
Isn't it because you are too petty and don't care about the tribe?
Isn't it normal that others contribute more, are more loyal, and are treated better?
He didn't expect that when his mentality changed, the totem had quietly changed, and he would definitely become a member of the tribe in the next sacrifice.
His words made many slaves wake up. Yes, to join this tribe, in addition to dedicating loyalty and working hard to build the tribe, they could make it better.
Whether they were males from the tribe or wandering orcs, they only had the second path to take.
No one knew what they were thinking, but after this winter festival, they completely felt a sense of belonging to the tribe.
At this moment, they were partying and enjoying the rare delicacy while discussing what to do next.
The reason for staying relatively quiet in the cold season is to conserve food. With food available, there are certainly many things to do.
Happy days always pass quickly. After the bonfire died down, the orcs left one after another. Of course, before leaving, they cleaned up all the debris here.
Ye Jiu's cave was so spacious and bright, of course they were envious and jealous that they didn't have it at all.
Everyone knew that if Ye Jiu's family hadn't gone out to get them back.
This cold season, people either died of hunger and cold, or lost their lives in battle, and even their bodies might not be intact.
Being able to survive and plan for the future life all depends on the chief's family.
All they have for Ye Jiu is respect, believing that the strong should live a better life.
In the following days, Ye Jiu no longer cared about these trivial matters. With the orcs coming, someone would take care of everything in the tribe.
Going out and getting hurt is very dangerous, so there is no rush now, but they have already started making arrangements.
A total of five hunting teams were formed, with twenty orcs in each team.
There is one captain and one deputy captain, both of whom are required to be at level four or above and have leadership skills.
I had long wanted to assign them a living Tiger Hill, and of course I had the candidate already.
