"Yingying, don't be afraid, I won't let you go to the female cave!" Lin Xia's words were sonorous and powerful, but did not bring Bai Yingying a sense of security.
Sure enough, an angry male voice roared, "Axia, come back! You can't support Yingying by yourself!"
Bai Yingying didn't need to look back to recognize the voice as Lin Xia's father. After all, the original owner had a very deep memory of that time.
Lin Xia stubbornly refused to respond. He looked towards his good friend for help.
He pleaded in his tone: "Ayuan..."
The boy named Ayuan was standing right behind the female next to Bai Yingying.
Hearing the call, he only smiled awkwardly, "Axia. You've seen Yingying's physical condition. Not only can she not bear cubs, she doesn't look like she will live long... I can't waste my only chance."
Once a male is chosen as a beast husband, he will be branded with a special mark. He will be loyal to this female for the rest of his life and will not be able to change female partners.
A Yuan smiled apologetically at Bai Yingying again: "Yingying, I'm sorry."
They grew up together, how could they not have any feelings for each other?
But the reality is that except for the silly boy Lin Xia, the other friends are unwilling to take the risk.
The female next to her felt offended and unhappy.
She looked Bai Yingying up and down with a mocking expression, "Bai Yingying, with your small figure, you still want to be pursued by a male?"
Bai Yingying glanced at her coldly: "Does it have anything to do with you?"
The female was stunned by her gaze, and after a moment of silence she looked away awkwardly.
The original owner had a gentle personality and was gentle in dealing with people.
But Bai Yingying, who traveled through time and space, had experienced the brutal fighting at the end of the world, so her eyes were a little cold and filled with murderous intent.
The young female who had never experienced any hardship would naturally feel a little scared when she looked at her like that, and would not dare to provoke her again.
After being rated as having low fertility, Bai Yingying has been calling out to the system in her mind, but the system seemed to have disappeared, with no response at all.
She looked back and saw only Lin Xia, who looked anxious.
While Lin Xia was anxious, the time to choose a husband soon arrived.
The patriarch blew a horn and the scene became quiet again.
He immediately saw the two most conspicuous females on the field.
"Hua Rong, Bai Yingying. The beast husbands you two have chosen are too low-level. You must have three or more males to form a family."
This time, in addition to Bai Yingying, there were three others whose fertility was rated as inferior, but behind the other two were four or five males.
She only has Lin Xia, but Hua Rong has two male orcs.
The two were quite far apart, and Bai Yingying hadn't noticed before.
Hua Rong stood on tiptoe at this moment and shouted anxiously, "Lin Xia! Choose me. Bai Yingying is going to the female cave anyway, so you might as well choose me. Although my fertility is low, my body is still good. At least it's easy to raise and clean!"
Females are delicate, and what they eat and drink is much more delicate than what males eat and drink.
Hunting is difficult and male mortality rates have always been higher.
Some weak orcs have difficulty feeding themselves, so naturally they don't want to keep a female who can't reproduce for a long time. They would rather spend some food occasionally to vent in the female cave.
The strong male orcs look down on females with low fertility.
This resulted in some females being given a bye and going to the female cave.
Lin Xia shook her head decisively and said firmly: "No. I choose Yingying."
Hua Rong was so angry that her eyes almost popped out, but there was nothing she could do.
She was well-proportioned and believed she had good fertility. She was usually a bit irritable with her suitors, and had offended many males.
When her fertility was found to be low, most males did not want to choose such a troublesome female.
She was angry and aggrieved, feeling that she shouldn't be on the same level as Bai Yingying.
The clan leader looked at the attitudes of both sides and said, "Hua Rong, Bai Yingying, come with me."
He led the people away, and the remaining males and females stayed to prepare for the ceremony.
"You two should get ready and move to the female cave before dusk. Don't worry, you will have enough food and drink just like other females." The patriarch said seriously.
"Chief, I don't want to go to the female cave." Bai Yingying clenched her fists. "I can support myself."
"Yes, Chief, I can support Yingying!" Lin Xia added immediately.
The tribe leader's face darkened. "Nonsense! There are no extra caves in the tribe for her to live in. Bai Yingying, if you don't want to go to the female cave, then leave the tribe."
Their tribe was not very powerful, but they had a large population, so the caves they could live in were very tight. This time, the little one who was starting a family needed a new cave.
How could a worthless female be allowed to enjoy the cave all to herself? Although the cave Bai Yingying lived in was not big, it could accommodate a small family.
What's more, the greatest use of a female who can't reproduce is to go to the female cave.
Lin Xia was shocked when he heard this, "Chief!"
Forcing a weak female to leave the tribe, isn't that tantamount to forcing her to die?
He quickly pleaded: "Chief, please don't chase Yingying away. Don't worry, I will send her to the female cave..."
The patriarch snorted coldly and left quickly.
"Yingying..." Lin Xia's face was pale. How could he bear to let his beloved go to the female cave? However, if she was driven out of the tribe, she would die.
"Axia, can you take me out now?" Bai Yingying emphasized again, "Outside the tribe."
In her memory, there was no world outside the tribe at all. The farthest place she had been to was the gathering ground outside the tribe.
Collect some wild fruits and vegetables grown in the tribe.
If she didn't want to go to the female cave, she needed to find out how dangerous it was outside.
She was able to find food even in the apocalypse where food was scarce, so it stands to reason that she wouldn't die in a place where food was everywhere.
Just look at the degree of danger outside and you will know whether you can survive.
Lin Xia looked up suddenly, her eyes full of disbelief, "Yingying, do you know what you are saying?"
He explained anxiously, "There are many wild beasts in the forest. I dare not leave the tribe alone, so how can I take you with me?"
He was only 19 years old, still a teenager. Not only did he not have high natural strength, he also had not learned much hunting skills.
Bai Yingying's eyes were deep. "Then I'll go by myself." After she said that, she turned around and left, but her steps were not fast.
How could she possibly go to a strange and dangerous place alone? She was just trying to provoke Lin Xia into accompanying her.
"Wait!" Lin Xia hurriedly caught up, "Yingying, don't go out. It's really dangerous. The road is rugged and you can't walk steadily. What's more, if you encounter poisonous insects or snakes, you will die if you are not careful!"
Bai Yingying stopped.
Yes, the potential dangers in the forest are more than just wild beasts.
Do we really have to go to the female cave?
