Late at night, Mu Qingqing was about to fall asleep.
A loud noise startled her.
She quickly sat up. In the dim light, Mo Lin also sat up. Even Yu'er, the little silly pig, was woken up.
She looked for the source of the sound in a daze, but before she found it, there was another loud noise, which scared her so much that she fell into Mu Qingqing's arms.
"Mother, I'm afraid~"
Mu Qingqing quickly hugged her and looked towards the door.
Something hit the door.
Mo Lin got out of bed, put on his shoes and went to open the door.
"Xiao Lin, wait a minute..."
Before he could finish, the door creaked open.
A stone the size of an ostrich egg was thrown in and almost hit Mo Lin on the head.
Mu Qingqing was so scared that she pulled him over.
"Is something okay?"
A hint of warmth flashed across Mo Lin's eyes.
"No."
Soon after, several more stones were thrown in. The stones were so powerful that they almost bounced off the wall and onto several people.
The kids were no strangers to this sort of thing, they had experienced it many times before.
But Yu'er is still young and only remembers eating but not being beaten.
She huddled in her mother's arms helplessly, not understanding why stones were thrown in from outside.
Mu Qingqing looked at the palm-sized stone on the ground and felt angry.
If this hits the head, it will at least cause a lot of skin loss even if she doesn't die. She wants to see who did it.
As soon as she appeared, there was a loud noise outside.
"Here she comes, drive her out of the tribe!"
"Yes! Get her out, Mo Snakes are not welcome here!"
"Drive them out? If she wasn't the daughter of the Great Witch, I would have wanted to kill them all!"
The members of the Daxi tribe held torches in their hands, and the light of the fire reflected everyone's face, making the indifference on their faces extremely clear.
There was unquestioning disgust in their eyes when they looked at Mu Qingqing.
Mu Qingqing knew clearly that Xiao Lin and the others' identities might have been exposed.
But it's also strange, who said that?
With a "slap", Mu Xuan slapped her most beloved daughter hard on the face.
Mu Lingling covered her face and looked at her mother in surprise, unable to believe that her mother would actually hit her.
Even his father and elder and second brothers who were standing by did not help him.
Mu Lingling's tears immediately fell. Didn't she just let the cat out of the bag?
Mu Xuan took a deep breath and looked at Mu Lingling.
"What a good thing you did! Just because of a dead crow, you made the whole tribe restless on the eve of the tribute ceremony!"
"Mother, don't say that about Wu Hao..."
Seeing her daughter's stubborn attitude, Mu Xuan felt annoyed.
"Just stay at home and don't go anywhere these days."
Mu Lingling panicked, "Mother, you are not going to let Mu Qingqing and Wu Hao form a bond, are you? Mu Qingqing is not worthy of Brother Wu Hao, she..."
"Shut up!" Mu Xuan shouted.
"Asay, take your sister back to her room."
Hu Sai nodded and pulled the crying Mu Lingling.
"Brother, brother, tell me, does mother intend to let Mu Qingqing and Wu Hao form a bond?"
Hu Sai looked at his sister with a trace of heartache in his eyes.
Helplessly said: "No."
Mu Lingling shook her head in disbelief.
"Brother, you lied to me."
Hu Sai remained silent. Mu Qingqing could only live until tomorrow's meeting at most. How could she possibly form a pact with Wu Hao?
Mu Lingling was locked in the room and two females were left guarding the door.
After returning to the room, Hu Sai looked at the tribesmen who were throwing things outside the window.
"Mother, what should we do now?"
Mu Xuan hesitated for two seconds and looked at the brothers from the Squirrel Clan who were at the front of the crowd.
"Asay, call them in."
After a while, several orcs came in aggressively.
"Great witch, you'd better give me an explanation!"
"That's right, Great Witch, you can't allow Mu Qingqing to bring the Black Snake into our tribe just because she is your daughter..."
"I don't care whether you are a great witch or not. You must give us and our people an explanation today, otherwise I will go find our people and the priests!"
Mu Xuan raised her eyes and looked at the orc who was speaking.
"Leaving her is what the priest meant!"
The expressions of several orcs changed.
"impossible!"
"Why would the priest allow the black snake to stay in our tribe? Isn't that a disaster for us?"
"We're going to ask the priest!"
Mu Xuan looked at them coldly.
"Have you forgotten the priest's warning?"
Several orcs looked at each other, with a hint of fear in their eyes.
On the eve of every meeting, the priest would not allow his tribesmen to rashly seek him out.
Once, a female in the tribe had a conflict with a human, and she ran to the priest for such a trivial matter.
Later, the priest became furious and said in front of the female that she had disturbed his communication with the beast god.
You will definitely be punished by the Beast God.
Sure enough, not long after, the female died suddenly.
Even the great wizard doesn't know the cause of death.
From then on, on the eve of any meeting, even if something big happened, the tribesmen would not look for the priest.
“Brother, since this is the arrangement of the priest, shall we go back?”
An orc and the leading orc said.
The reason why they were so angry was because their fathers and mothers died at the hands of Mo She.
The eldest brother looked at Mu Xuan steadily, then turned and left.
Seeing this, Mu Xuan raised her voice.
"Let all the tribesmen go back!"
After a few people left, a trace of worry flashed in Hu Jue's eyes.
"Mother, if the priest knew that we took in the black snake, would he be angry?"
Mu Xuan looked at her second son calmly.
"Didn't I tell you that this was arranged by the priest?"
Hu Jue raised his head suddenly and Hu Sai hesitated.
"Mother, Mu Qingqing is really..."
"She is our sister after all."
Mu Xuan: "This is the priest's arrangement. I don't want to repeat it for the third time!"
Mu Qingqing looked at everyone leaving, but the doubts in her heart did not diminish.
I don’t know how Mu Xuan could convince them?
The next day was the tribute ceremony.
Mu Xuan came to Mu Qingqing's room early in the morning and warned her not to go out for the whole day. She would give her the evening primrose after the meeting in the evening.
Mu Qingqing looked straight at Mu Xuan.
"Will you really give me the evening primrose?"
Mu Xuan said nothing and turned away.
Not long after, there was a loud sound of drums outside the house. Mu Qingqing wanted to open the door to take a look, but unexpectedly, Mu Xuan had even tied the door for her.
She could only stand on tiptoe and look out the window.
She saw all the members of the Daxi tribe worshipping in one direction accompanied by the beating of drums.
Then, an old man came into view.
The old man was walking barefoot on the road. Like Mu Xuan, his face, neck, arms, and entire body were covered with black runes.
He was wearing a cloak and enjoying the worship of the crowd, just like what Mu Qingqing had seen in martial arts novels.
cloak?
Mu Qingqing murmured.
This kind of material shouldn't belong to the Orc continent, right?
Or is it that Daxi's development is even more advanced than she imagined?
