Xie Man's face was full of disbelief.
This thing can really cut the black stone!
Just when Xie Man was expecting Hu Jiaojiao to cut the entire chain, Hu Jiaojiao suddenly stopped what she was doing, pulled out the electric saw, turned off the switch, and then put it back in place.
Actually, she put it back in the space.
Anyway, Xie Man didn't know where she came from or what she brought, so it was okay to take things out of the space to fool him.
Xie Man's eyes followed Hu Jiaojiao all the time until the electric saw disappeared, and he came back to his senses.
He was distracted and looked into Hu Jiaojiao's eyes that were smiling but not smiling.
"How about it, can you help me see the witch doctor now?"
Xieman's eyes were burning, and he looked at Hu Jiaojiao deeply. This time, there was no longer a trace of doubt on his face.
"Okay, but I have a condition."
"You say."
"Give me this thing."
He wanted to use this to rescue all the beast slaves. As long as they were not troubled by the black stone, they could escape from here.
No, not just escape, when they have the strength in the future, they will definitely come back to take revenge.
As long as they have this thing, they will no longer be enslaved by the wolf beastmen!
Hu Jiaojiao shook her head, "No, I can't give this thing to you."
She would not give things in the space to others casually, especially such harmful things. It would be bad if others used it against her.
Xie Man's face darkened, and he was about to refuse, when he heard Hu Jiaojiao continue:
"But I can help you accomplish what you want to do, such as... unlocking the black stone shackles of all the beast slaves and taking you to escape from the Canglang Tribe."
"You want to leave here?" Xie Man's face was surprised.
"No, I want to return to my own tribe." Hu Jiaojiao smiled and corrected.
Xie Man looked at her deeply, with a probing look, and did not answer immediately.
"Even if I give you this thing, you won't be able to use it. It can even cut black stone. If you accidentally lose your grip and fail to control the strength, you will directly cut off their hands and feet. I can't help you connect them back."
Hu Jiaojiao kindly reminded.
After that, she changed her tone and offered him an olive branch:
"However, if you can convince them to join my tribe, I can help you cut this thing up and guarantee you a place to survive. Not only will you not be enslaved, but you will also have enough food next year."
Xieman clenched his hands unconsciously and looked at her with complicated eyes,
as if he was considering the credibility of her words.
"Of course, you can also choose to take them to wander in the forest. You have so many beastmen, it is not difficult to build a tribe, but I think you should not go without the females..."
"Without a warm place to live, without enough food, and without warm animal skins, you can withstand it, but the females may not be able to survive this winter."
Fox Jiaojiao analyzed all that Xie Man could think of and could not think of.
Xie Man's face became more and more solemn.
This female did not give him a chance to choose!
Only agreeing to her conditions is the choice with the least danger and loss.
"What if I don't agree? Aren't you afraid that I will tell these words to the leader?" After a moment of silence, Xie Man asked with a sullen face.
"It doesn't matter if you tell the leader. He has plans for me now, and he won't do anything to me even if he knows. As for you, it's not certain."
Foxy chuckled softly, her expression unusually calm.
She could see that he held a high position among the beast slaves, and with him taking the lead, things would be more efficient.
"Okay, I promise you." Xieman frowned and answered in a sonorous voice. After a pause, he continued, "But I have to ask everyone's opinions."
In fact, as long as he said a word, the beast slaves here would leave with him without hesitation.
But he couldn't say too much, lest this female think they were easy to control and make more demands in the future.
Joining a tribe is not a trivial matter.
He had to be careful, so as not to step into another "wolf tribe".
"Okay, I'll find a chance to get you out of the way later, and you go back to ask for their opinions." How could Foxy not see Xieman's little thoughts, but she didn't care.
Even a rabbit bites when it's angry, so you can't push people into anger.
There are many beast slaves here, and it will take time to calm people down. She can't bring a bunch of troubles back.
"Beautiful sister, I brought the hot water back!" The voice of the little beast slave came from outside the door.
Xieman's expression immediately returned to normal, and he stood in the corner with his hands hanging down.
The little beast slave came in from the door, holding a half-man-high stone bucket, staggering, followed by several wolf beastmen, carrying the same stone bucket and a large stone basin.
"Thank you, you've worked hard."
Foxy smiled at the little beast slave.
"You all go out, I'm going to take a shower." She waved her hand.
Looking at the steam rising from the room, Xieman couldn't help but glance at Foxy's white neck, his eyes went down, his ears couldn't help but feel hot, and he quickly retracted his gaze.
The tip of his nose seemed to be lingering with the previous fragrance again. Xie
Man was puzzled. He had clearly changed the beast skin given to him by the female, so how could he still smell the fragrance...
"By the way, ask them to go back and find another beast slave for me. Two beast slaves are not enough." The foxy voice interrupted Xie Man's reverie.
The Canglang beastman nodded helplessly.
What else could they do about the ancestor that the leader had to worship? They could only obey her.
"You two, choose carefully for me. If I am not satisfied, you have to send it back." The foxy voice said to Xie Man meaningfully.
"Got it." Xie Man lowered his eyelids, feeling a little embarrassed for a rare time, and hurriedly retreated.
...
"Cough... cough cough..."
In the silent creek, a weak cough sounded, scaring away the crows on the dead branches nearby.
There were echoes of "cackles".
A boy about eleven or twelve years old climbed out of the snow, his eyes gradually focused, and when he saw the dark creek in front of him, he suddenly woke up and looked around in panic.
Soon, his eyes were locked on a piece of animal skin exposed in the snow not far away.
The boy's face changed, he stumbled over, knelt in the snow, and dug out the little female buried in the snow.
He looked around, cleared the snow on a flat stone, and then carefully placed the little female on the stone.
"Ah...ah..."
He opened his mouth anxiously, making a short hoarse sound, and reached under the nose of the little female with trembling hands to feel it out. She's
still breathing!
His face lit up, and he rubbed his hands together, and covered the little female's icy cheeks with his not-so-warm hands. He repeated this countless times, and finally the eyelids on the pale little face moved.
