Just when their eyes met, Yuanchu suddenly felt that she and Wu Zhu had successfully established a connection.
What happened
Just when she was wondering, Wu Yi hugged her, lowered his head and sniffed her neck. It was obviously a male scent, why did it make him have such an impulse? He wanted to hold her tighter and get closer.
Seeing Wu Zhu who was clinging to her body and not hiding his lust, Yuan Chu didn't know how to react.
His emotions were so honest and pure that she didn't feel offended. It's just that he is too young to do this kind of thing until he reaches adulthood, otherwise it will be detrimental to his future growth. Hybrid orcs are a late-maturing race, and it takes at least 30 years for their brains and bodies to fully adapt to nature.
"What's wrong with you?" Yuanchu pushed him away and kept a sensible distance from him.
Wu Zhu took her hand and said seriously: "I... want to mate with you."
Original: "We are all males..."
In Wu Zhu's understanding, mating is for reproduction, and only the opposite sex can perform this sport. However, he does not have that feeling for other females. Instead, he has an impulse towards Yuan, who is also a male. This impulse was intense and eager. He didn't want to suppress it, he just wanted to follow his instinct.
"Can't you?" A trace of disappointment flashed in Wu Zhu's eyes.
"Of course not." Yuan Chu ruffled his hair carelessly, "Who would do such a thing with his own brother?"
Wu Zhu: "I will..." His instinct told him that he wanted to go further with this person.
"Stop thinking about it, go to sleep." Yuan Chu lay down, closed his eyes, and made up his mind not to let him know that he was a female until he became an adult.
Wu Zhu stared at her for a moment, until her breathing gradually calmed down, then he cautiously approached and took a bite on the side of her neck.
The next day, Yuanchu was sitting by the river weaving rattan baskets. Vera passed by with a wooden shovel and was about to say hello when she suddenly smelled the scent of an exclusive mark.
Many males like to leave short-term exclusive marks on females, which means that the female has been mastered, and the duration is usually only a dozen hours.
How come there is the aura of the mark on the original body? There are only three people in the valley. It seems clear who left the mark? But they are all males...
Vera's mind was a little confused, and she stood there and stared at Yuanchu blankly.
"What are you looking at?" A figure walked up to her and blocked her view.
Vera came back to her senses and met a pair of eyes that contained a warning. The ferocious face was intimidating, so she hurriedly avoided looking at it.
Wu Zhu had seen this kind of reaction on countless people's faces. He knew it was because of his ugly appearance, but Yuan Chu never avoided it and always looked directly into his eyes when talking to him.
"Wuzhu." A clear voice came from behind, breaking the awkward atmosphere between the two of them.
Yuan Chu came over and handed the rattan basket in his hand to Wu Zhu: "This is for you."
Wu Zhu took it and looked at her questioningly.
"I can carry more stuff on my back when I go out in the future."
"Yes." Wu Zhu immediately put the rattan basket on his back, feeling a little happy and his eyebrows relaxed.
Transforming the valley into a livable place is a huge, time-consuming and labor-intensive project. It not only requires building houses, but also purchasing clothing, daily necessities, etc. Originally, only simple objects could be made from local materials. Most of the necessities have to be collected outside.
The so-called collecting actually means picking up discarded items that others don’t want. These hybrid orcs cannot trade with the outside world at all. Unless you hide your identity and risk being arrested, go to the market to exchange for goods.
It might have been possible a few years ago, but now, it's basically impossible to get away with it. Humans have instruments to scan, orcs have mark sensing, and hybrid orcs are having a hard time.
Of course, if enough silkworm saliva is collected to completely remove the mark, it should save a little trouble.
In addition to marks, hybrid orcs have two other identifying characteristics, which are body shape and tire marks. Most of the orcs are tall and strong, and their skin is covered with dark brown tread patterns, while the mixed-blood orcs are relatively short, with very light tread patterns, and some even have no tread patterns at all. Hybrid orcs cannot disguise themselves as humans because their ears are pointed like orcs.
"Vera, those orcs may still be looking for you, so don't run around." Yuan Chu warned Vera again.
When Vera heard this, she nodded repeatedly.
"Let's go." Yuan Chu greeted and left the valley with Wu Zhu.
Their tasks today were mainly to find food, collect seeds, pick up rags, and practice animal language.
Wu Zhu has now basically mastered how to blur most of the animal language and accurately listen to the language of a specific target.
Yuan Chu's next step was to train Wu Zhu's ability to communicate in animal language.
"There are a group of spotted deer, a group of cloud goats and a cheetah ahead." Yuan Chu casually threw a few mushrooms into the rattan basket and said to Wu Zhu, "Try to imitate the language of the cloud goats without disturbing the cheetah. Under the premise, attract one or two cloud goats."
Wu Zhu crawled in the grass, staring straight ahead. Waiting for a moment, he opened his mouth and let out a short cry.
Several cloud goats raised their ears and looked around, seemingly looking for something.
Wu Zhu continued to imitate the cry of the cloud goat, trying his best to attract their attention.
After two or three minutes, several cloud goats finally couldn't hold themselves back any longer. They opened their hooves and approached with their heads and heads.
At this moment, Yuanchu suddenly said: "Stop screaming."
Wu Zhu turned around in confusion.
Yuan Chu whispered: "The cheetah was also attracted by you."
Wu Zhu: "..."
The two quickly climbed up the tree, but not long after, they saw a strong black shadow jumping out of the woods and wandering around where the two had been.
At this time, a bleating sound of sheep came from not far away, which quickly attracted the cheetah's attention.
Several cloud goats walked over and entered the cheetah's attack range without realizing it.
The cheetah pounced out as fast as lightning, biting the throat of a cloud goat. Before it could die, it quickly pounced on another cloud goat who was about to flee.
However, in just three minutes, two cloud goats were brutally poisoned.
"You failed to lure the monster." After Cheetah had eaten and left, Yuan Chu summarized Wu Zhu's performance.
Wu Zhu: "...Why?"
Yuan Chu answered his doubts: "What you just imitated was the cry for help of the cloud goat. Although this signal can attract them, it also makes the cheetah think that there is a helpless little pitiful one here that is easy to capture."
Wu Zhu: "..."
"Follow me." Yuan Chu jumped down from the tree and led Wu Zhu to a lake.
"Most animal languages are not as complicated as the languages of orcs and humans. They mainly send out emotional signals. You have to pay attention." Yuanchu looked at the calm lake and called, "Black ribbon fish..."
Opening his mouth, a strange sound wave came from his throat.
Within a moment, ripples appeared on the surface of the lake, and then small black fish emerged from the water, jumping up and down happily.
"Silver Fin..." The sound wave converted into another frequency.
Small silver fish tumbled out one after another, intertwining with the small black fish from before.
"Red Bearded Fish..." The sound wave was long and melodious, passing through the lake surface and into the water.
A big fish about two meters long with six thick and long tentacles slowly surfaced from the water, causing a large splash of water.
With the original call, the calm lake surface gradually became lively. Fish of different colors, different types, and different sizes swarmed in, densely packed as far as the eye could see, covering the entire lake, with rolling waves, making it a spectacular sight.
Yuan Chu stood by the lake, commanding this huge underwater army like a leader. Slender body, but exuding a strong aura.
Wu Zhu was fascinated, his eyes bursting with dazzling light.
At this moment, a loud cry came from the sky, and a bird swooped down, its sharp claws aimed at the red whiskered fish in the lake.
Just when it was about to catch the red-whiskered fish, Yuanchu suddenly let out a cry: "Hush..."
The bird paused, flapped its wings in panic, made a sharp turn, passed over the lake, and flew into the sky again.
Wu Zhu recognized that Yuan Chu had just imitated the cry of the thunder eagle, and easily scared the bird away.
While the birds were circling in the sky, the fish in the lake dispersed and disappeared into the water within a moment.
Wu Zhu truly saw the power of beast language, traveling across the mountains and fields, commanding with determination, like the king of beasts.
The people around him looked so thin, but in his eyes, they were extremely powerful.
He wanted to catch up with her, defeat her, and then own her.
What about males? As long as he becomes stronger than her, he is qualified to pursue her!
At this moment, Wu Zhu had an ultimate goal in his heart.
The two spent a day traveling through the jungle and gained a lot.
Seeing that it was getting late, the two decided to return.
Halfway through the journey, the two suddenly stopped and looked at each other. At the same time, they took out the powder of infective grass and sprinkled it on their bodies, then got into the dense forest and lurked.
Tens of minutes later, a group of orcs suppressing seven or eight mixed-blood orcs appeared in their sight.
There are male and female mixed-blood orcs, big and small, the older one is over forty years old, and the younger one is only five or six years old. Their hands and feet are tied with ropes, and their bodies are covered with scars. If the moving speed slows down a little, some of the orcs will curse. Pushing.
The little hybrid orc was frightened and cried loudly.
"Why are you crying? You're so annoying!" An orc slapped him casually, "Our orc children are old enough to go hunting like you, but look at you, all you can do is cry, you're like a bunch of trash!"
A mixed-race female struggled to pick up the child, bowed repeatedly, and begged them for mercy in inarticulate animal language.
"Hurry up and don't waste time." Another orc came over, picked up the child, hung it on his shoulder, and urged, "It's getting dark soon. We need to find a place to spend the night as soon as possible."
The other orcs responded, pulling on the ropes that bound the hybrid orcs, and speeding up.
Wu Zhu and Yuan Chu hid in the bushes and watched them leave silently.
"At first, I felt a little uncomfortable."
"What's the discomfort?"
"I don't think mixed-blood orcs should be treated like that." Wu Zhu didn't know how to express the humiliation of having his dignity trampled on and his freedom deprived.
"Your feeling is correct."
"what should I do?"
Yuanchu stood up and said calmly: "There is no other way but to become stronger."
