Chapter 118 Entering the City
Qian Jingyao nodded slightly and said softly:
"Beast City is an important place for orcs from many tribes to exchange goods. Our Fox Tribe also has members specifically responsible for this matter, but they don't come here frequently, only once every few months, and then they exchange many things needed by the tribe."
He paused and continued to explain patiently:
"If the tribesmen need anything, they should inform them first. The responsible tribesmen will carefully note it down. After the exchange is completed in the Beast City, the tribesmen can use their captured prey to exchange it for it."
Xia Yueke asked anxiously:
"But why didn't I see it?"
Qian Jingyao couldn't help but chuckle and said lovingly:
"They had already changed it once before you were born, and then it happened to be the rainy season, so the roads were muddy and difficult to travel on. We couldn't get out at all."
Xia Yuke nodded as if she understood, and the doubts in her heart disappeared. So that's how it is. No wonder she had never seen it before!
At this time, a bear orc in front heard Xia Yueke's words, and his huge and slightly clumsy body slowly turned around curiously.
His feet stepped on the ground, making a dull sound.
The moment he saw Xia Yueke, he immediately smiled.
"Is this your partner? Is he also coming to the Beast City Cub Initiation School?"
The bear orc asked in a muffled voice, his voice echoing in the air with a unique sense of heaviness.
Qian Jingyao nodded slightly, his posture elegant and humble, and said politely:
"yes."
The bear orc smiled innocently, opened his mouth wide, and revealed a row of sharp but currently unintimidating teeth.
"My little one is the same. When he heard in the tribe that there was a cub enlightenment school in Beast City, he was extremely curious. He jumped up and down in the house, acting like a spoiled child and making a fuss, insisting on coming to play."
"By the way, didn't the cub initiation school start eight days ago? Why are you so late?"
The bear orc scratched his big hairy head, his face full of confusion.
Qian Jingyao's face flushed slightly, and he said a little embarrassedly:
"Something delayed me. Can I still go to school now?"
The bear beastman raised his head and looked at the sky, as if trying to recall something. After a moment, he said:
"Those cubs have been attending classes for several days. I heard from the head nursery teacher that if they're late, they'll do a little test to see if they're smart and whether they need to wait until next season to start school."
Xia Yueke sat in Qian Jingyao's arms and immediately understood when she heard the word "small test". Isn't this like an entrance exam or something?
Her eyes lit up instantly and her heart was filled with confidence.
She straightened her back. Xia Yue was not worried at all. As for the questions posed by the saint, they had gone through nine years of compulsory education after all. What questions could stump her?
She was even a little eager to try. The exams here must be the most basic and simplest ones. After all, even the Saint couldn't teach the difficult ones!
Isn't this something she's good at? If she doesn't get a perfect score, it would be a disservice to the motherland's careful cultivation of flowers.
Xia Yue was laughing so happily, with the corners of her mouth raised high and her two little fangs shining brightly.
When Qian Jingyao heard about the test, he couldn't help but frown slightly, with a hint of worry in his eyes.
He pursed his lips slightly and thought to himself, although he knew that Coco was very smart, this was something he had never been taught or learned. If he didn't pass, he would have to wait until the hot season.
His eyes fell gently on Xia Yueke, but when he lowered his head, he met Xia Yueke's excited eyes. Qian Jingyao asked hesitantly:
"Keke, are you going to take this test? If you're stressed, then we won't go!"
Xia Yueke shook her head like a rattle, and the pigtails on her head fluttered, "Yes, yes!"
The voice was clear and loud, full of firmness and determination.
Seeing that Xia Yuke was so determined, Qian Jingyao didn't say anything more and continued to move forward.
Finally it was their turn.
"Which tribe are you from? Please register. What are you doing in Beast City?"
An orc guarding the city spoke in a muffled voice. When his eyes swept over Xia Yueke, his voice unconsciously became lighter, and there was an imperceptible softness in his eyes.
The orc was tall and strong, with bulging muscles and unique patterns on his skin, showing the characteristics of his tribe.
Qian Jingyao immediately took a step forward, raised his chin slightly, and said in a neither humble nor arrogant manner:
"Fox tribe, come to Beast City to attend the cub enlightenment school!" His voice was crisp and pleasant, but with unquestionable firmness.
The orc nodded, as if he had guessed it long ago.
After all, the fox clan has always been known for its intelligence and cunning, and it is common for them to send their cubs to Beast City to study.
Looking at Qingyan again, a hint of doubt flashed in the orc's eyes, "Is he with you?"
Qian Jingyao nodded, and moved his feet seemingly inadvertently, naturally blocking most of Qing Yan's body. "He is with us, and he is also from the Fox Clan!"
Qian Jingyao's heartbeat quickened slightly, fearing that something would be discovered.
Qing Yan lowered his head slightly behind him, hiding the strange light in his eyes.
The orc looked Qian Jingyao up and down, but after seeing the seven animal patterns on Qian Jingyao's arm, his expression instantly became more respectful and his attitude became more polite.
He hurriedly took out the registration paper and animal hair pen, quickly registered, waved his hand, and let them pass.
Qian Jingyao breathed a sigh of relief and walked quickly into the Beast City with Xia Yueke and Qing Yan.
Xia Yueke's eyes were fixed on the orc's animal skin paper and animal hair brush.
There was a fiery curiosity glittering in her eyes, and her head tilted involuntarily little by little, almost twisting its head to the side, determined to explore the principle of the strange writing tool.
Qian Jingyao looked at Xia Yueke doubtfully, his eyes full of confusion and questioning.
After being looked at by Qian Jingyao like this, Xia Yueke seemed to come back to her senses suddenly, realizing her own loss of composure. Her cheeks flushed slightly, and she looked away awkwardly.
She thought to herself that when she got to school, she would know what this pen and paper were!
Are there more novel and interesting things waiting for her to discover in the school?
When she thought of this, Xia Yueke felt endless anticipation in her heart again!
When the orcs of the Sheep Tribe also successfully entered the city, the noise and clamor at the city gate was like a surging tide, sweeping everyone away.
Mu Yan's honest face was filled with sincere gratitude. He held A Yang's hand tightly, while A Yang shyly hid behind him, slightly leaning her head out to look at Qian Jingyao.
Mu Yan's voice was clearly audible amidst the noise:
"Thank you for bringing us here. If you hadn't been with us along the way, who knows how many twists and turns we would have encountered. Now we're going to look for our sheep tribe members here! Let Ayang and Keke go together for the test the day after tomorrow!"
