"Moo...!"
A brutal, piercing roar echoed in my ears.
The giant bull charged wildly, intending to vent its anger on a few orcs, but after glancing at Jiao Sujing for a moment, it panicked and ran off in the opposite direction.
In his hasty escape, he rolled on the ground and was about to get up when a lithe figure sprang from a tree in front of him.
The bone knife in his hand pierced the giant bull's neck like a shooting star, and a piercing bellow rang out.
The high volume of the sound made her ears sting a little. Just as Shengxia frowned, Wolf King gently covered her ears.
Summer retreated and nestled in Wolf King's arms.
"Charge!"
Countless earth-shattering roars came from the nearby mountain valley, as if the entire space was about to be shattered. The snow on the trees fell down with a whoosh, making Sheng Xia's heart pound with fear.
Where did this idiot come from? Please, please don't let an avalanche occur!
My gaze involuntarily drifted past the bushes and looked ahead.
A group of males with mysterious totems painted on their faces, carrying bone knives, charged out and surrounded the enraged bull.
Observing the less-than-efficient hunting method ahead, Jiao Su's golden eyes remained calm as she imparted her experience to the three little ones.
"Look, after the prey dies, you have to bleed it, skin it, and remove its internal organs immediately. Wild animals that die in the snowy season have a very fast body temperature drop, and if you're too slow, the carcass will cool down and become difficult to handle..."
The three little ones listened attentively and nodded solemnly: "We understand, Su Su's Dad!"
On the other side, most of the orcs had subdued the bull, while the remaining orcs turned their heads menacingly and all looked at Shengxia and her group of orcs.
Upon seeing Shengxia among the beasts, they almost immediately lowered their guard, their eyes widening in surprise.
"Are there females?"
The snowy season is tough, and no beasts come out to rob supplies, especially not with females. In other words, if they bring females, they definitely won't rob.
The intense gaze was impossible for the beast to ignore.
Sheng Xia frowned slightly, raised an eyebrow and looked over, her gaze calm as she looked at the unfamiliar males in front of her, without saying a word.
Noticing the females' gaze, the males instinctively straightened their heads and presented their best appearance.
The leading male's eyes gleamed, and he smirked. "My name is Leopard, chief of the Flying Knife Tribe. This cow is ours."
The icy voice suddenly pierced his ears, making Sheng Xia's scalp tingle. He looked over in alarm.
How could an orc's voice be so cold?
He doesn't look cold at all; on the contrary, he looks very hot...
Her fiery red short hair stood on end, brown totem patterns covered half of her face, and she wore an ill-fitting fiery red animal skin.
Her long, narrow, almond-shaped eyes sparkled, and her high, straight nose was exceptional; her whole appearance was flamboyant and radiant.
The three little ones next to Shengxia froze for a moment, their hair standing on end, and looked up at the male who had spoken, equally surprised.
Throwing knives, which tribe is on the map?
Mao Ning turned around, his eyes questioning She Han behind him: Is this the tribe?
Snake blinked and nodded almost imperceptibly.
He stepped forward, a friendly smile playing on his lips. “Hello, we are from Yafatu. We brought food and clothes to sell, and we’ve already sold to three or four tribes.”
Selling food during the snow season?
Leopard's eyes flickered, and he glanced at Mao Ning, who had spoken, with some suspicion. He then asked directly,
"You said you sell food, but where's the food?"
Upon closer inspection, the baskets on their backs didn't contain much. With so many orcs coming out to sell, it was impossible for them to be without anything...
Is it fake?
But they have no reason to lie...
Leopard couldn't understand it, and scratched his hair in frustration. He looked up at Mao Ning, his tone as cold as if it contained shards of ice.
"Are you telling the truth or lying? I didn't see you carrying anything. You're not trying to trick the beasts, are you?"
The other male chuckled: "Yeah, where's your food? You didn't hide it in your clothes, did you?"
He also had a piece of meat tucked in his arms.
"Haha, we won't buy the ones we've already put in our pockets."
“…”
For no apparent reason, they started making fun of each other.
Seeing this turn of events, Sheng Xia was speechless. She blinked her bright almond-shaped eyes, desperately trying to suppress the upturned corners of her mouth, and turned her head to look to the side.
Then I met a pair of bright, orange cat eyes.
? ! ! !
Startled, Shengxia grabbed Wolf King's arm and pressed herself tightly against him.
"What's wrong?" Wolf King lowered his eyes and asked gently.
She suddenly shuddered. Had the orcs' laughter frightened Xiaxia? Then what about him…?
Shengxia realized what was happening, patted Wolf King on the shoulder, pointed to the pair of orange eyes, and whispered excitedly.
"Wolf King, look over there, isn't that a gray raccoon?"
I didn't expect it to be so powerful; it chased me all this way.
Upon hearing this, the wolf king paused for a moment, then obediently turned its head to look. It met a pair of beautiful round eyes, with slightly raised eyebrows. It was indeed the wolf king.
He turned his head and stroked Shengxia's hair, kissing her forehead with eyes full of doting affection, his voice incredibly gentle.
"Yes, that's it."
Xiaxia seems to really like furry little animals, maybe we should catch one and keep it at home... or in Xiaxia's online space.
The space is special; keeping it might be a help...
"Xiaxia, do you want to eat this? That doesn't taste as good!"
Seeing Shengxia's excited expression, her eyes shining and her face flushed, Qingmu leaned over and whispered some serious advice.
Meeting Sheng Xia's surprised gaze, he scratched his head and said somewhat awkwardly, "If you really want to eat it, you can have Little Sheep make it, I'll go catch it."
Wow! This thing is probably only edible if Yang Yun makes it. He's fast enough to catch it.
Thinking of this, Aoki transformed into his beast form and turned to look at the tabby kitten on the treetop.
