"Long Mo, do you know him?" Hu Jiaojiao turned around and asked curiously.
"No." Long Mo replied lightly, "I just met a beastman before, and his name also has a word Yin."
After he was driven out of the tribe, he had a very hard time surviving in the forest. Once he was surrounded by wild beasts, and it was a beastman named Yin who saved his life.
As far as he knew, only that tribe was named Yin.
"Really? Maybe you met a member of the Yingu tribe." Hu Jiaojiao guessed in a low voice.
Long Mo pursed his thin lips and said in a deep voice, "I'll go with you."
Hu Jiaojiao nodded and did not refuse.
Lu Mian'er took the message and left, knowingly not to disturb the couple.
A follower was following behind the two of them. Long Mo noticed it, but he didn't care.
The two came to the wooden house where Yin Gu was settled.
Yin Gu was slightly stunned when he saw a cold male following behind Foxy Jiaojiao. Then he showed a friendly smile and sat up from the bed with his upper body supported.
Yin Cang, who was beside him, hurried to help him, but was gently pushed away by him.
"Yin Cang, you go out first." He said gently.
Yin Cang frowned and didn't move, as if he was worried about leaving the wooden house.
"Be obedient." Yin Gu raised his voice.
It still sounded soft and not very intimidating, but Yin Cang knew that he would be angry if he didn't leave.
Yin Cang looked at him solemnly, and finally left the wooden house obediently.
Soon, there were only three orcs left in the room.
"What do you want me to do?" Fox Jiaojiao was the first to speak and broke the silence.
She looked at Yin Gu with strange eyes, and felt that something was wrong with him.
Yin Gu seemed to have become very energetic, and his weak and pale face had improved a lot. If she hadn't known that he was poisoned, Fox Jiaojiao would have thought that he was about to recover.
Inexplicably, the four words "last gasp" emerged in Fox Jiaojiao's mind.
Long Mo's sharp eyes like an eagle fell on Yin Gu, making him feel under great pressure, and the words he had prepared were hard to speak.
"I want to thank you for saving us." Yin Gu said with a stiff face.
"If you want to thank someone, thank the chief. He brought you back. I just happened to find you."
Foxy waved her hands and didn't care about it.
But Yin Gu shook his head stubbornly, "You are a kind female. Without you, we might not be alive now."
He said, looking out the door, with a hint of tenderness in his black eyes.
"His name is Yin Cang, he is my younger brother. He can't speak and has always rejected contact with orcs. You are the only orc he is willing to touch."
Foxy suddenly realized.
No wonder he hasn't said a word since he woke up as a cub. It turns out he is dumb.
"I know I won't live long. I watched Yin Cang grow up. If I die, I don't know how he will live..."
Yin Gu still had a smile on his face when he talked about his own death, but when he talked about Yin Cang, his smile turned bitter.
"So..." He glanced at Long Mo, and suddenly turned over with difficulty and knelt on the ground.
"I want you to take Yin Cang in!"
He crawled down and begged sincerely and humbly.
"He is a good cub, obedient, and capable. As long as you give him something to eat..."
"If you are willing, I can let him be the beast slave of your female cubs as a reward for you."
Fox Jiaojiao was startled and hurried forward to help him up.
Before he touched Yin Gu, Long Mo behind him had already crossed between the two of them and lifted Yin Gu back to the bed.
"He doesn't have to become a beast slave."
Fox Jiaojiao comforted.
"Don't worry, the chief will allow him to stay in the tribe and won't chase him away."
As for taking in Yincang, she really hadn't thought about it.
There were already five cubs at home, and she wasn't so loving as to pick up any cub she saw and bring it home to raise.
Yin Gu fell back on the bed, and when he heard Fox Jiaojiao's tactful refusal, his face instantly turned pale and weak.
What he just said was the truth.
He knew very well what kind of person Yincang was
. If he was gone, with Yincang's stubborn character, he would starve himself to death and would not have any contact with other beastmen.
"Who is Yin Lei to you?" Long Mo's low voice came out suddenly.
"How do you know him?" Yin Gu looked up in astonishment, "He is my father."
A ripple flashed across Long Mo's deep eyes.
"Ten years ago, Yin Lei saved my life."
In his memory, he was a burly and brave male. The first sentence Yin Lei said after saving him was: "I also have a cub as big as you."
That's why Yin Lei couldn't bear to save him.
I think the cub he was talking about was Yin Gu.
After Yin Lei saved him, he also killed the prey and grilled meat for him.
That was the first barbecue Long Mo had eaten since he was born.
While Yin Lei took care of him like an old father, he kept nagging him that he had a beautiful partner who had just given birth to his second cub.
Because he had to hurry back to bring food to his partner, Yin Lei waited until he was full before leaving.
Long Mo still remembers the smile in his eyes when he left.
A rough and strong man, but smiling brightly.
At that time, he didn't understand the existence of the word "home". In his eyes, it was a cold place.
While thinking, Long Mo's eyes fell on the foxy girl beside him. Until today, he understood Yin Lei's mood at that time.
"So that's it."
Yin Gu suddenly realized, his face still full of surprise.
He didn't expect that the beastman his father had saved, now saved them and their brothers by accident.
"How come you are here? Where is Yin Lei now?" Long Mo asked in a deep voice.
"He...died ten years ago." Yin Gu answered with a sad face.
Long Mo's eyes darkened.
Ten years ago, wasn't that after Yin Lei went back?
Yin Gu pulled the corner of his lips and smiled bitterly:
"Our tribe has a rule that we are not allowed to interact with beastmen from other tribes. If you mate with beastmen from other tribes, you will be expelled from the tribe. My father fell in love with a beastman from another tribe, so he took my mother to live in the forest."
"Originally we lived a peaceful and stable life, but who knew that a beastman in the tribe knew my mother's identity..."
He knew he was going to die, so he no longer concealed it and told Long Mo everything he knew.
Yin Lei's partner is from the Fantasy Beast Clan.
The fantasy beasts are a race that exists in legends like the elves. The power of the beast god flows in their blood. It is said that drinking the blood of the fantasy beasts will make you invincible.
After the beastmen of the tribe learned her identity, they began to trick Yin Lei into bringing her back to the tribe.
Yin Lei saw through their thoughts and took his partner and Yin Gu to change residences frequently to avoid them. Unfortunately, his partner was pregnant again, and for the sake of his partner's body, they could no longer move frequently.
They could only live in a hidden cave temporarily.
The peaceful days lasted until Yin Cang was born...
