Chapter 114 Gift Giving and Departure
Xia Yueke was concentrating on tidying up her small animal skin skirt, smoothing out the wrinkles on the hem bit by bit. When she heard Qing Yan's words, her eyes widened instantly, as if she had heard some earth-shattering and great news.
The next second, she jumped up as if she had been sprung up by a spring, waving her hands in the air and shouting excitedly:
"So now it's as big as two classrooms, yeah, it's rich, it's rich!"
Her azure eyes sparkled brightly, and her small fox ears twitched with excitement.
Qian Jingyao was confused by Xia Yueke's sudden reaction. He had no idea what Keke was talking about.
His handsome eyebrows wrinkled slightly, his eyes full of doubts. Helplessly, he simply looked directly at Qing Yan and said:
"In that case, let's bring some extra things so we don't have to buy anything when we get to Beast City."
As he spoke, he walked to the storage corner of the house and began to carefully count the items that could be taken away. His eyes gradually became focused and determined.
He thought, no matter what, it is always a good idea to make more preparations. After all, Beast City is a completely unfamiliar place, and beast cores and food should be used where they should be used.
The three of them packed up their things in an orderly manner and waited patiently in the cabin for another two days.
In the past two days, Xia Yueke ran to the window from time to time to look out, hoping that the rain would stop.
Qing Yan seized the time to consolidate his upgraded strength.
Qian Jingyao was also busy, carefully planning the route to Beast City and the possible situations he might encounter.
Finally, the rain stopped and the sky cleared up. The warm sunshine sprinkled on the earth, dispelling the haze that had lasted for many days.
Qian Jingyao did not dare to delay for even a moment and immediately went to the residence of the Sheep Clan leader.
He stood before the patriarch, bowed slightly, and said with a serious and sincere expression:
"Sheep Chief, we decided to hurry to Beast City. After all, maybe the kids there are already learning. It would be bad if we go too late and can't keep up!"
He spoke seriously, but he was secretly worried. After all, he was just talking nonsense. He had no idea whether the cub school in Beast City had started classes. After all, he himself had never had the experience of attending a cub enlightenment school.
Among the orcs, although schools exist, they are not popular. They were only prosperous for a while when the Saint was here. Now, as time goes by, they have become deserted and many things have been gradually forgotten.
When Chief Sheep heard Qian Jingyao's words, he was obviously shocked. He had thought they would stay for a few more days, but he didn't expect them to leave so soon.
He nodded slightly, thought for a moment and said:
"Okay then. I'll go inform Ayang today and ask him and his father to get ready. How about we set off tomorrow morning?"
There was a hint of concern in the eyes of the Sheep Chief, afraid that they were not fully prepared, so he made this suggestion.
Qian Jingyao thought about it and felt that it was wet everywhere outside. The sheep tribe was notoriously disgusted with water. In this case, no one should go out to check the hill that was eaten by Qingyan, right?
Thinking of this, he felt relieved and nodded in response:
"Okay, then we'll gather at the tribe exit tomorrow!"
His tone was firm and decisive. After saying a brief goodbye to the Sheep Chief, he turned around and hurried back to the wooden house, ready to tell Xia Yueke and Qing Yan the news, and at the same time check the luggage again to make sure everything was safe.
The next morning.
The three of them quickly reached the exit of the tribe.
Xia Yueke didn't sit in the backpack that Qian Jingyao was sitting on, but walked over because she still had to give a gift to Ayang!
Ayang and his father beast had already been waiting at the exit of the tribe.
There were a few other sheep orcs around, and they seemed to want to go along too. They were carrying several large baskets of herbs on their backs. They might be going to the Beast City to do business!
Ayang saw Xia Yueke coming from a distance. His eyes, like black gemstones, sparkled and he waved excitedly at Xia Yueke.
Xia Yueke quickened her pace and walked over, carefully taking out the carefully crafted bone bell from her arms.
She handed the bell to Ayang and said:
"Ayang, this is a gift I prepared for you. I hope you like it."
Ayang's eyes suddenly widened, full of surprise and emotion. He took the bell with both hands, looked at it carefully, and shook it gently. The crisp sound of the bell rang in the air.
Inside, there was the sound of animal bones colliding with each other.
"Wow, it's so beautiful. I love it. Thank you, Coco! The bell sounds so nice. How did you make it?"
Xia Yueke answered with a guilty conscience:
"I used a very special bone, carved and polished it bit by bit, and also engraved my favorite pattern on it."
Ayang gently touched the pattern on the bell with his fingers and exclaimed:
"You're amazing! I'll definitely cherish it."
Qian Jingyao was smiling brightly beside him.
At this time, the Sheep Clan leader stepped forward and said to Qian Jingyao:
"It's a long journey to Beast City, so be careful along the way. Here are some dry food and herbs prepared by our sheep tribe, which may be useful."
As he said that, he handed a bag full of things to Qian Jingyao.
Qian Jingyao took it gratefully and said, "Thank you, Sheep Chief. I will lead these sheep orcs to the Beast City safely."
Everything was ready, they said goodbye to the Sheep Chief and the tribesmen, and set out on the journey to the Beast City.
Xia Yueke was carried by Qian Jingyao to the backpack, and she looked back from time to time.
When her eyes caught sight of the truly empty hilltop not far away, a trace of guilt instantly flashed in her eyes. She quickly turned her head guiltily, and her body unconsciously shrank into the backpack.
He also secretly glanced at the people he was traveling with, and when he saw that no one was paying attention to him, he breathed a sigh of relief.
Ayang had hung the bell around his neck at some point, then transformed into a beast, following his father obediently and moving forward with everyone.
Because there were other people around, Qing Yan could only restrain himself and could not transform into the majestic appearance of a vicious beast. This made him look a little uncomfortable and his steps were a little restrained.
Qian Jingyao was well aware of the team's current situation, so he didn't speed up. After all, although Qing Yan could keep up, the speed of those orcs from the Sheep Tribe was really worrying.
Although they had transformed into beast forms, looking like sheep, their speed was still slow. Qian Jingyao had no choice but to slow down to prevent the sheep orcs from falling behind.
Xia Yueke could feel the speed slowing down and couldn't help but look back.
Upon taking a look, she discovered that the sheep orcs had been left far behind them, and the distance between them was getting farther and farther.
