Chapter 200: Chapter 199, See You Again_1
Samuel smoothed his sister’s hair: "Duoduo, stop thinking about Xiu Yan, he doesn’t like you."
Sa Duoduo pouted, moisture shimmering in her eyes. Eventually, she lowered her head and mentioned Xiu Yan no more.
The lively feast continued until dawn, several orcs found partners willing to spend their lives with them.
Ji Nuan returned home, swaying with her chubby cub in her arms, slipped off her beast skin shoes, pulled the beast skin blanket over herself, and fell asleep.
Outside the tribe, however, the sky suddenly darkened. The snowflakes, originally as light as leaves, seemed to wear thick coats, falling heavily. The orc patrolling on the wall couldn’t see far.
···
"Clan Leader, the snow is falling hard. We need to find a place to take shelter, otherwise, we could be in danger." The orc underneath was struggling to move forward, the snow height rising fast, enveloping his limbs.
Dogtail frowned and waved dismissively: "Dogtan, go find us a cave, where we can hide for a while."
"Alright!"
Watching the orc leave, Manli, held by Dogtail, squirmed in his arms. The heavy snowfall chilled her, reminded her of the warm bed in the Watson tribe, and fire filled her heart.
She tugged Dogtail’s beast skin: "Clan Leader, the orcs of the Watson Tribe all sleep on the heated bed. Even on a snowy day like this, the bed is warm, not cold at all."
Dogtail’s face, blue from the cold, lit up in an instant. "Really?"
Manli smiled triumphantly: "Why would I lie to you? When I was in the Watson Tribe, I slept on such a bed."
Not just Dogtail, but even the surrounding orcs that had been eavesdropping had a spark of excitement in their eyes. Such a great place should belong to their strong Hyena Tribe.
"Let’s find a cave to rest, then, and continue our journey when the snow eases a bit." Dogtail’s gaze towards the distance grew even hotter due to Manli’s words.
···
"Bosson, what the hell are you thinking? Winter is so dangerous, and he orders you out again and again. Isn’t it because he wants you to die? Why do you still obey him?!" Along the Eneru River, a group of orcs was struggling to march in the snow, tightly wrapped in their beast skins.
If Ji Nuan saw it, she would recognize that these were Bosson and Norwe who had kidnapped her last time. But now, they no longer looked energized. Their messy, matted hair pressed against their scalps, looking like it had been quite a while since it had last been washed.
Actually, had it not been for the hot water and constructed houses for bathing this year, the orcs of the Watson Tribe would not have looked much different from Bosson and his group.
"Amu and sis still need to live in the tribe, I can’t just abandon them." Bosson’s voice was calm, without a hint of complaint.
Norwe’s fists clenched tightly, his eyes red. The thought of the unfair treatment his friend went through made him feel both angry and helplessly frustrated.
"Bosson, an orc has collapsed!" Confusion and anxious cries came from behind the group.
With a serious face, Bosson marched towards the back. The orcs were gathered around a ’dumpling’ wrapped in straw, pointing and whispering curiously. In such freezing weather, how could an orc be wrapped in straw and set out like this? Had they no regard for their own life?
