Lin Xia looked up suddenly when she heard that and nodded heavily: "Yeah."
Bai Yingying stopped talking and just lowered her head to concentrate on biting the piece of meat in her hand.
After Bai Yingying finished eating, she found that Lin Xia had left.
But he didn't eat the meat at all, he put it on the clean animal skin.
“…”
Bai Yingying stared at the direction of the door curtain. After hesitating for only a second, she picked up the meat from the animal skin and ate it.
Orcs have big appetites, and what she just ate was not enough to fill her stomach.
The orcs in the Orc Continent are all carnivores and must eat enough meat every day to get nutrition.
Bai Yingying finished eating all the raw meat, and only then did she feel alive again.
She scooped a mouthful of water from the reservoir with a wooden ladle and drank it. Then she slowly leaned against the wall and lay down on the stone bed.
Perhaps it was because she had consumed a lot of energy, she felt so sleepy that she couldn't even open her eyes. She put the strange feeling aside, covered herself with the animal skin and went to sleep.
I slept until the next day.
She woke up the moment Lin Xia entered the cave and the sunlight shone in.
Lin Xia held some fresh fruits in an animal hide and said, "Yingying, I've brought you breakfast."
Bai Yingying couldn't help but sigh. He sent fruits to the original owner every day without fail, but the original owner never ate any of them.
It was probably because the original owner looked so bad that Lin Xia took the risk of going out hunting with her friends, which turned out to be a good thing for her.
Bai Yingying lowered her eyes and looked at Guozi without saying a word.
Lin Xia misunderstood. He sat down beside the bed and soothed her gently, "Don't be nervous. I think your fertility value must be quite high."
What the hell?
Bai Yingying raised her eyes, her eyes full of doubt.
Lin Xia lowered her eyes and didn't look at her at all. Her face was still red, and she said hesitantly: "Just... don't forget to choose me..."
Bai Yingying was stunned for a moment, then she remembered the original owner's memory.
Yes.
Today is her 18th birthday ceremony, and it is also the day when female orcs assess their fertility.
In the Orc Continent, females have no hunting ability and are weak, so they are rare.
Especially females with high fertility are even rarer.
Because there are more males than females, they practice polyandry.
But this only applies to females with high fertility.
They have many suitors and can choose their husbands at will to support themselves.
Lin Xia was afraid that he himself had low talent, and once Bai Yingying was found to have high fertility, she would have more suitors and would not choose him.
"They all say that I am weak, have ugly fur, and look infertile. I must not be a good female." Bai Yingying said slowly.
Her beast-like fur is pure white, which is an unwelcome color in the Orc continent. White means being conspicuous and not conducive to survival.
In addition, she was a premature rabbit and was born weak, even more delicate than other females, making her difficult to raise.
Her father and three brothers all met with accidents one after another because they had to hunt to support her.
Therefore, her relatives hated her, and the orcs in the tribe also disliked her.
Even some wandering foreign orcs despised her for being weak and ominous.
Even though the other females were not yet adults, they were all the center of attention, but she was the only one who was ignored.
Since childhood, only her neighbor's brother Lin Xia liked her.
Sure enough, her self-deprecating words made Lin Xia furious.
"nonsense!"
Lin Xia's handsome face flushed instantly. "You are the best female in the tribe! You are kind and gentle, and you never look down on me for my low talent..."
His ears grew redder and redder under Bai Yingying's gaze.
"I don't care about the title of the bestial husband, as long as you choose me. I, I just want to be yours, your bestial husband..."
At the end, he started to stutter.
Bai Yingying was shocked by his straightforward confession, and her scalp tingled.
The number one beastly husband? Is that what she understood?
Sure enough, this is a world more magical than the end of the world.
She interrupted quickly, "It's getting late, let's go..."
Lin Xia responded softly, touched her hot cheeks, turned around to lift the animal skin curtain, and signaled Bai Yingying to go first.
The two left the small cave.
The tribe they belong to is called the Rabbit Hunting Tribe.
It is a medium-sized tribe in the Sunset Mountains.
Their strength is average, but their reproductive capacity is strong. Females with excellent fertility values often appear, and they are favored by strong men from other large tribes and sent for marriage.
With the support of a powerful force and the ability to reproduce, they gradually developed into a medium-sized tribe.
Bai Yingying and Lin Xia were frequently noticed and discussed when they walked around the tribe.
The female coming-of-age ceremony is second only to the annual sacrificial ceremony in terms of its liveliness.
Therefore, the females holding their coming-of-age ceremonies today are all females born in the same year, and it is not just Bai Yingying’s birthday ceremony alone.
The rabbit hunting tribe, the population continues to remain at around 5,000.
In the same year, more than 300 males were born, but only 35 females.
But this number is enough to surpass the surrounding tribes.
Bai Yingying is the least favored female in the tribe.
Other females are fed more or less from a young age because there are many males who want to get familiar with them.
When she was a child, some young males fed her dried meat, but as she grew up, only Lin Xia was willing to continue feeding her.
"Look, the little female from the Bai family has lost a lot of weight in the past few days. She looks like she's about to die."
"It would be so unlucky if I died during my coming-of-age ceremony!"
Their voices were low, but Bai Yingying and the others could still hear some of it.
Bai Yingying didn't care at all, but Lin Xia felt uncomfortable and clenched her fists.
He said in a deep voice, "Don't talk nonsense! Females are the treasures of every tribe. If you dare to curse again, I will tell the witch!"
"Haha, I'm dying of laughter. Lin Xia, how fertile do you really think Bai Yingying is? However, your rubbish talent is just right for her."
This man was obviously afraid that Lin Xia would go and complain to the witch, so he left after saying these harsh words.
"You!" Lin Xia was so angry that she raised her foot and chased after him.
Seeing Lin Xia getting angry, Bai Yingying pulled him back in time.
Fighting is a waste of energy, which means a waste of food.
Moreover, she had heard too many insulting words in the end times, and such harmless words could not anger her at all.
Bai Yingying held Lin Xia's hand and pulled him away.
At this moment, Lin Xia's entire attention was focused on Bai Yingying holding his hand.
He lowered his head, staring at the intertwined hands, with the corners of his mouth curled up wildly.
The two quickly walked to the square, where many orcs were already waiting.
People gathered in groups of three or four to chat, and the whole square was bustling with people, it was indeed very lively.
With Lin Xia's encouraging gaze, Bai Yingying walked alone to where the females for the coming-of-age ceremony were waiting.
There were already more than twenty girls standing here, each with a different hair color.
The most common colors are khaki, gray, black, and white, and there are even floral ones, which makes Bai Yingying exclaim in her heart that it is magical.
There is no need to dye your hair, the hair will be the same color as the beast's body. It's really amazing.
When the girls saw her coming, they just glanced at her, then turned their eyes away and continued chatting with the people around them.
There was only ignoring, no sarcasm and abuse as imagined.
