Chapter 239 Encountering the Lost Tribesmen
Chapter 239 Encountering the Lost Tribesmen
The cold winter has passed and all things are reviving.
The bare flowers and plants on the roadside began to sprout new buds.
A breeze blew, bringing with it a fragrance.
Spring has arrived, symbolizing the arrival of new life.
Mu Qingqing couldn't help but think of the situation when she was huddled in the conference room for a meeting with her clansmen not long ago.
The fireplace was burning, and the wood was sizzling.
The females each held a cup of hot tea in their hands, while the orcs drank icy cold Wahaha.
They laughed and joked together, talking about the development of the tribe, greenhouse planting, the coming of spring, and future plans.
Sadly, most of these people are no longer around.
No one knew what kind of torture the tribesmen she carefully selected had suffered during the time she was away.
And there are Leopard Sel and his gang, hundreds of strong orcs, who rely on pills and fantasize that they can live until spring.
And now, they are all gone.
I don't know when the tears started falling again.
Mo Xiao wiped her tears silently.
"Cry if you want to."
Mu Qingqing shook her head. The most intense moment of her emotions had passed. Now she just wanted to find the few cubs and the lost tribesmen.
After walking and stopping for half an hour, a call interrupted the group's progress.
"Beast Master?"
Mu Qingqing paused.
"It's the Beast Master! The Beast Master!"
Mu Qingqing mustered up the courage to turn around and look towards the source of the voice.
She saw the tribesmen huddled in the woods, and only after they confirmed her identity did they hurried over.
They all had burns of varying degrees, and everyone's face was black.
I thought they would hug Mu Qingqing and cry, or kneel in front of her and ask her for revenge and tell her about their tragic experiences.
However, none of these things happened.
The tribesmen all had tears in their eyes but smiles on their faces.
"Master, I'm so glad you're okay."
"Yeah, I'm glad you're okay."
However, with just these two simple sentences, Mu Qingqing's emotions, which had been suppressed with great difficulty, collapsed like a dam.
She said: "I'm sorry, I'm not a responsible patriarch."
There was an external invasion and the clan leader was nowhere to be seen. The responsibility lies with her.
The tribesmen shook their heads repeatedly, their tones somewhat relieved.
"Tribal disputes are inevitable. Whether you live here or in other tribes, they are likely to happen. Beastmaster, it's not your fault. We have learned a lot and seen a lot in the tribe. It's written in the book that you should not resist hardships. They will make you stronger. Instead of living a muddled life, I feel that I am living a very satisfying life."
These were the words of a female who used to teach language in the tribe.
The tribesmen nodded one after another, "Master Beast, that's what I mean. Although we are hiding, we are full of hope for the future!"
“Yes, full of hope!”
Mu Qingqing rolled her throat, closed her eyes, and suppressed the heat in her eyes.
The tribe members were much stronger than she had imagined.
As a clan leader, she couldn't dwell too much on the sad things that had happened.
Mu Qingqing smiled, and there seemed to be bright stars in her tearful eyes.
"I can't guarantee that you won't be attacked by other tribes in the future, but I can guarantee that I will never leave you behind!"
"Moreover, I promise you that I will avenge the dead members of my tribe!"
"Stone Vein! I am doomed!"
"It's enough to have the beast master say this!"
The tribesmen cheered, tears welling up in their eyes.
"Master, is there anything to eat? I'm a little hungry."
A half-grown orc came over with a smile.
Mu Qingqing shook her head with a smile, then took out bread one after another from Mo Xiao's pocket.
Mo Xiao calmly watched her perform magic tricks without exposing her. After all, he couldn't do anything about it. Mu Qingqing didn't try to hide it at all.
The tribesmen sat on the ground, eating bread and asking Mu Qingqing whether she was going back to Fuxi.
"But now Fuxi may have been occupied by Shimai. Not only Fuxi, but also Wanshou City. They and the Shimai people in Wanshou City are working together, so Wanshou City is now also their territory. Beast Lord, if we want to take back the territory, it may be difficult."
Mu Qingqing thought for two seconds and said, "I'm not going back."
The tribesmen who were eating stopped, looked at each other, and spoke cautiously.
"Does the beast master want to separate from us?"
Mu Qingqing couldn't help but laugh when she saw the tribesmen looking abandoned.
"Where will you go if we separate? Where will I go? Besides, didn't I just say I wanted revenge? How can I take revenge without you?"
Some members of the tribe figured it out.
"Does the Beast Master mean that we should rebuild a tribe?"
Mu Qingqing nodded.
"I don't want to go back, not because I'm afraid of them, but if I go back, I have to tear down the previous house and rebuild it, which is too troublesome."
And we must also prevent the stone veins from causing trouble.
This way, contribution growth is slow, and even if Mu Qingqing wants revenge, she can't do it.
"Is there any place the beast master wants to go?"
Mu Qingqing raised her head and looked in a certain direction.
"seaside."
The tribesmen were a little stunned.
"There are no wild animals in the forest anymore, but it's impossible for orcs to not eat meat. The meat I give you is not fresh. There are fish and other seafood in the sea that can replenish the energy that orcs need."
Seeing that the Beast Master was so considerate of them, the tribesmen were extremely happy and told him why they wanted to head towards the coast.
"After we got separated, we heard that Lang Yi was walking in this direction with his cubs. We had no choice but to follow them aimlessly, hoping to find them one day. We didn't expect to meet the beast master."
Mu Qingqing nodded and asked again about what happened in those days.
The tribesman narrated the entire incident in detail, and his calm voice could not conceal the grief and despair of that day.
It’s pretty much the same as what Aling said.
"Beast Master, I suspect that they did not intend to capture us all in one fell swoop at the beginning. They took action because Xing Miao died. Their original purpose might just be to rob us of our resources."
The truth of the matter and the purpose of the stone vein are no longer important.
Mu Qingqing now just wants to find a few little guys, gather the tribesmen, and then rebuild the tribe to get contributions.
Then, it’s revenge.
The path she was taking became clearer and clearer step by step.
She no longer had the idea of just lying down and living her life like before.
The hatred towards Shimai completely aroused the motivation in her heart.
……
The breeze blowing across the sea brought bursts of salty and humid air.
Lang Yi, holding Yu'er, led the remaining tribesmen and finally reached the beach.
His only eye was staring quietly at the sea surface sparkling in the sun.
"Uncle Lang Yi." Yu'er hugged Lang Yi's neck obediently, but her voice was tearful.
"Mom, can they find us?"
Lang Yi gently touched Yuer's head and pressed down the sticky hair.
"Yes, I have already asked the giant eagle to leave the tribe and look for them. They will definitely find us."
Yuer sniffed and hummed, then jumped out of Lang Yi's arms and ran towards his brothers.
Her two brothers were distributing food to the tribesmen one by one, bandaging their wounds, and handling the emergency calmly.
When did two skinny and bullied kids grow up to be independent orcs with leadership qualities?
Just as Lang Yi was in a daze, a large shadow suddenly covered everyone's heads.
