Chapter 218: The Poor Snake Beastmen in the Beast World (5)
Bai Qi's face was full of disapproval, and he quickly retorted: "Dad, what does this have to do with Jiang Zui?
Does that mean we should hate him just because of his identity?
This is not fair!
Jiang Zui doesn’t want to be a wandering orc either.”
When Father Bai heard what Bai Qi said, he pursed his lips, thought for a long time, and explained: "Qi Qi, the snake beastmen are a race cursed by the beast god. If they had not committed heinous crimes, how could they be in this situation?
Although... Jiang Zui is not their ancestor, when Jiang Zui accepted the inheritance, he had already assimilated with his ancestors in his bones.
Yes... maybe Jiang Zui is no threat to you and our tribe now, but what about in the future... can you guarantee that he will never harm the tribe?
The reason why I asked you to stay away from Jiang Zui is because I was worried about you.
Snake beastmen don’t have partners in their hearts. In their minds, partners are just tools to reproduce offspring.”
After a pause, he continued, "Qiqi, snake beastmen have always been possessive. If you take Jiang Zui as your partner, what about Shi Ye?
As a snake beastman, Jiang Zui would never give up something that originally belonged to him and share it with others.
Qiqi, don't be too kind."
Bai Qi understood the truth behind Bai Di's words.
But I cannot agree with it.
He didn't understand the habits of the snake beastmen, but he had never thought of taking Jiang Zui as his partner. In his mind, Jiang Zui was still a little kid.
As for...Shiye?
Even though he knew that the other person would be his partner a long time ago, he didn't have any special feelings in his heart.
"Father, I know your concerns. Xiaozui is still a little kid, how can I let him be my partner?
Dad, you really think too much!
Don't worry, I just treat Jiang Zui as my younger brother." Bai Qi said to Bai Di with a smile.
When Father Bai saw this, he sighed silently in his heart, feeling that Bai Qi did not take his words to heart, and he stopped insisting on it.
Let him be...
No matter what the outcome, he is there.
Father Bai: "Qiqi, you can also find a partner now. Jiang Zui is still a kid, so it's not convenient for him to stay here. Otherwise, let Jiang Zui live with me and your father."
After these words were spoken, Bai Qi fell silent.
To be honest, he didn't care whether Jiang Zui lived in his house or not, but he felt that Jiang Zui didn't want to leave him, and he didn't want to make things difficult for Bai Dad, so he remained silent.
Jiang Zui who was in the cave heard clearly what was said between Bai Die and Bai Qi.
Jiang Zui was a little furious!
what happened?
Why is it that in this small world, there are people everywhere opposing him? !
None of them allow themselves to be with their wives.
I don't want him to get his wish!
Therefore, when Jiang Zui heard Bai Di asking him to move out of Bai Qi's cave, he was afraid that Bai Qi would agree, and subconsciously wanted to come out and refute.
But at the critical moment, the steps stopped and the arms stopped.
Because he heard Bai Qi's answer.
"Father, no need. I have no plans to take a partner right now. Besides, I brought Jiang Zui here, so of course I have to be responsible for him. Where can a little kid like him go?"
"But..." Just as Bai Dad opened his mouth to explain, he was interrupted by Bai Qi.
"Dad, don't worry, I'm an adult now and I can take care of myself." Bai Qi patted his chest and promised.
Dad Bai looked at Bai Qi with doting in his eyes.
Baidie is a female. When she was young, she was not the only one. She had seven cubs in total. Among them, Baiwu and Baiqi’s fathers were both tiger clan leaders and were also Baidie’s biggest companions.
The other brothers were the sons of Baidie and his other partners.
Baidie had five partners in total.
The four companions died one after another due to various problems, such as illness, being injured by wild beasts while hunting, etc.
Baidie was very sad about the successive deaths of his four partners, and he never took in another partner since then.
Orcs have a long lifespan, generally living to around two hundred years old, and some priests can even live to three hundred years old.
Even so, the orcs live in a difficult environment with very poor medical conditions. Therefore, some minor illnesses and injuries that seem minor in modern times are very scary for orcs.
Afterwards, Baidie spoke a few more words to Bai Qi and left.
Bai Qi watched Bai Di's figure for a long time before he turned around and wanted to go to the cave entrance.
As a result, Jiang Zui's appearance instantly came into Bai Qi's sight. Bai Qi was startled by Jiang Zui and said nervously: "Jiang... Jiang Zui, why... why did you come out!? You... you just..." Did you hear everything? !
Before Bai Qi finished his last sentence, Jiang Zui said, "Yes, I heard it all."
After saying that, Jiang Zui immediately stepped forward and hugged Bai Qi.
Although Bai Qi is an adult, she is a female and is slightly shorter by one or two centimeters than Jiang Zui, who is not yet an adult.
Although Jiang Zui is skinny, he is taller than ordinary kids because he has been foraging for food and struggling alone all year round.
Jiang Zui used his hands to hold Bai Qi tightly, and said with grievance in his tone: "Brother Qi, you are the only one I have, please don't abandon me, okay?
I will be good and obedient and listen to you in everything. I only ask you, please don't chase me away, okay?
It was you who saved me, it was you who said you would bring me to your tribe, it was you who said your home is my home."
When Bai Qi heard Jiang Zui's words, his body stiffened instantly, and he even ignored the pain he was feeling. He knew that kids like Jiang Zui were very sensitive.
But he didn't know he was so sensitive. He took a deep breath, patted Jiang Zui's back, and said softly, "Jiang Zui, don't worry, I won't drive you away. What I said to you will always be valid."
"Brother Qi, thank you for taking me in and giving me a home." Jiang Zui expressed his gratitude sincerely.
Seeing that Jiang Zui was so grateful to him for such a small thing, Bai Qi couldn't help but make up his mind to be nicer to Jiang Zui.
Little did he know that all of this was just a performance Jiang Zui wanted to stay and put on in front of Bai Qi.
In order to help Jiang Zui better integrate into the tiger tribe, Bai Qi let Jiang Zui play with the group of little cubs in the tiger tribe.
The most beautiful and happiest stage in an orc's life is the cub period.
Adult males need to go out hunting every day to find food for the tribe.
Adult females need to contribute to the reproduction of the tribe and collect various supplies on a daily basis.
The old orc had only two options: either commit suicide to save food.
Otherwise, it is to let the tribe see their own value.
In most cases, most orcs will leave the tribe when they grow old, find a remote and rare place, and commit suicide quietly.
The orcs are happiest during their cub period.
As a cub, you don’t need to worry about survival. Just be happy every day and work hard to grow up and become an adult.
That is the cub's only goal.
