"These plagues and disasters actually come from Pandora's Box. The words on the painting say that Pandora's Box actually contains four things: plague, virus, disaster, and hope."
"A male covets the hope in Pandora's Box, because hope can fulfill a wish. Blinded by desire, the male insists on opening the box regardless of the plague, virus and disaster inside."
"He thought that once he released hope, he would just cover the magic box and lock the other three, but he didn't expect that the first ones to come out would be plague, virus and disaster."
"In his panic, he simply closed the magic box and locked hope inside."
After explaining a few things, the female sighed and shook her head, saying, "These are all recorded in very, very ancient painted characters. Who knows if this is a story made up by someone? So, if we want to find the magic box, we can only say that our hope is slim."
Song Jinqiao responded indifferently and didn't say anything more.
They kept going north, and along the way Song Jinqiao saw what a real weather disaster was.
Sometimes it rained heavily, sometimes it hailed, sometimes it was hot, and sometimes it snowed heavily. Some orcs died of the heat, and some orcs died of the cold.
There were also earthquakes, mudslides, tornadoes…it was a miracle that we survived.
Song Jinqiao took a breath, looked up at the scorching sun, and then his envious eyes fell on the males.
She wants to take it off too!
Song Jinqiao didn't know what to say. She was about to be frozen to death one moment and then died of heat the next. What was this? It would be better to let her go through that kind of spiritual test!
At this time, Huai Xiang came over, wearing a fur coat that barely covered his pubic area. He looked at Song Jin Qiao in surprise: "Jin Qiao, you're wearing so much, aren't you hot?"
Song Jinqiao's eyebrows jumped, and he shook his head with a wry smile: "I'm fine."
If only she didn't have that sense of shame.
Wearing a fur coat that barely covered her three points, she didn't even dare to hang around in front of her partner, let alone here.
Huai Xiang looked up at the blazing sun in the sky, then looked at the big trees around him: "Looks like everyone will have to sleep around here tonight. Let's find a place to dig a cave."
Song Jinqiao nodded in agreement, and together with Huaixiang, they found a place and asked Mingjiu to help dig a cave in the rock wall.
Huai Xiang sat in Song Jinqiao's cave, eating a fruit. He watched as hail suddenly began to fall outside. He felt a sudden sadness in his heart. He sighed softly and said, "I really don't know when this life will end. We've actually been searching for five years. Are we going to die on the road to finding the magic box?"
Song Jinqiao paused holding the fruit, and put the fruit into his mouth in silence.
It sounds really sad to live like this all your life.
At this moment, a female's sharp voice suddenly came from outside, followed by the crying of the cub.
Song Jinqiao and Huai Xiang looked outside together, but they could see nothing and didn't know what they were looking at.
Huai Xiang took a bite of the fruit, shook his head and smiled bitterly, "I really don't know whether it's good or bad to give birth to a cub now."
Song Jinqiao understood what she meant.
If Pandora's Box is not found, the cubs born now and even those born in the future will live under the shadow of disaster.
Song Jinqiao suddenly asked, "Why is your entire tribe going to look for the magic box together, instead of sending out a few males?"
During the days of traveling, she found that the females couldn't bear it at all, but they endured it without saying anything until they fell ill.
There are no longer any males and females pairing up, not even those who are in love, because if a female dies, it means they will lose a strength - a male.
At this critical moment, they absolutely cannot lose any male.
Huai Xiang smiled slightly, then disappeared into his eyes in an instant. "We did that once, but the tribe leader discovered that even though we had been staying in one place, many orcs still died, even though they forbade any orcs from entering the tribe or leaving at will. Moreover, we never heard from those who were sent out."
I see.
"Does it really have to go on like this?" Huai Xiang murmured. He didn't know why, but his nose suddenly felt sore and the tears in his eyes would flow down as soon as he blinked.
Song Jinqiao was silent for a moment, then placed a fruit beside her on her free finger and said softly, "Some things are not groundless. As long as there are orcs alive, we must keep searching, even if it takes a hundred years, a thousand years, or even ten thousand years."
"The suffering we are going through now is for the happiness of our future cubs."
Song Jinqiao wiped her tears and smiled, saying, "Everyone comes to this world for a while, and everyone has responsibilities and missions in this world. Perhaps our responsibility is to find hope for the beastmen behind us to survive."
Huai Xiang stared at her blankly, then suddenly wiped away a tear, sniffed, and said in a muffled voice, "I understand..."
"Our cubs, the cubs of the cubs, as long as we orcs continue to exist, we will be able to find the magic box one day."
Seeing that she had finally come to her senses, Song Jinqiao took out another fruit and placed it in her hand, smiling and saying, "Eat it quickly. After you finish eating, wait until the hail stops, and then we'll go see the newborn cubs."
Huai Xiang couldn't hold back, tears streaming down his face again. He held the fruit in his hands to his lips and muffledly replied, "Yeah."
After Song Jinqiao and Huai Xiang finished eating the fruit, Huai Xiang's mood also stabilized. The hail outside stopped falling, so Huai Xiang pulled Song Jinqiao to go to the cave of the female cub that had just given birth.
When they arrived, only the female and her partner were in the cave. The other orcs went back after looking at the cubs.
Seeing them coming, the male and female gave them a few instructions and then left the cave.
Huai Xiang released Song Jinqiao's hand and excitedly came to the female's side. Looking at the cub in her arms, he was immediately touched by its cuteness: "What a cute little cub, is it a female or a male?"
The female looked at Huai Xiang and said with a smile, "It's a male."
Not a female.
Although Huaixiang was a little disappointed that she was not a female, he was still very happy for her.
Song Jinqiao also came forward and stared at the little cub, but he couldn't help wondering what it would look like if it was his companions' cubs.
"Can I hug him?" Huai Xiang asked.
The female smiled and nodded, handing the cub over. The man in her arms quickly reached out to take it. Looking at the cub sleeping soundly in her arms, she suddenly wanted to have a litter of cubs with her friends.
If it were before, she would definitely drag her partner to have a litter.
