Like a zoo.
There are fences around the perimeter, guards, and workers putting out food.
Human beings were divided into several groups, each occupying an open space inside.
They were all naked, skinny, and expressionless. When they saw the food thrown in, they rushed forward like gorillas, grabbing it in their hands and biting it with their teeth.
There are men, women, old people, and children.
In the fight for food, one of the children was bitten to death.
Chu Xiaoye stood outside the fence, as if looking at the animals in the zoo.
He didn't dare to look any further.
The fat girl introduced it with gusto, her eyes full of hatred and teasing.
Once on the grassland, she had seen too many human misdeeds.
Her relatives and friends have also died under human shotguns, just because of the two ivory tusks in her mouth.
Therefore, even though she has become an orc now, deep down in her heart, she still has a hatred for humans.
Chu Xiaoye turned around, tried her best to pretend to be calm, and said: "Let's go, I feel sick to my stomach. I'm afraid I won't be able to eat at noon."
The fat girl asked strangely: "Is this disgusting? You are a male lion, what kind of blood have you not added?"
Chu Xiaoye shrugged and said: "But I am an elf now and have not transformed yet. Moreover, we had no choice but to live like that at the beginning. Now that we have a better life, let's look forward and work hard. Why should we continue to be immersed in the past and unable to extricate ourselves?"
Fat Niu looked at the scene of humans fighting for food inside and said: "Remember the hardships and remember the sweetness, encourage yourself, work harder, and don't go back to the past."
She was once an elephant. Although she was tall, she was still very fragile and difficult.
Among the animals living on the grassland, who is not vulnerable
Chu Xiaoye patted her arm and said, "Fat girl, everything has passed. There is no need to think about it anymore. Let's go."
He looked back at the beast-like humans inside, and his heart suddenly trembled.
Maybe the outside world is like this now.
The beasts mutated and became more powerful. Under the attack of the virus, humans became fewer and fewer and weaker. Therefore, the animals that they once kept in the zoo for viewing suddenly turned over and became their masters, locking them in the zoo. , turning them into objects to be viewed.
It's not impossible.
Maybe the collapse of the outside world will only affect some creatures, while other creatures will survive in another way.
The food chain is turned upside down, the rules change, and everything becomes incredible.
If there is a chance, he will definitely go out and take a look.
Go to grasslands, villages, towns, cities, everywhere to see what the once familiar world has become, and what kind of positions those familiar creatures have changed.
"King Fart, you don't like me like this, do you?"
On the way back, Fat Girl suddenly asked.
Although she is fat, she is not stupid. Otherwise, how could she become a big boss in this dark place where all the forces are complicated
Chu Xiaoye did not answer, but said meaningfully: "You probably don't like me like this either, right?"
Fat Girl smiled and said: "You used to be so domineering and free, and you could do whatever you wanted. You are not like you now."
Chu Xiaoye sighed and said, "Everyone has changed."
Fat Girl also said: "Yes, everyone has changed."
Three days later, the fat girl got her wish and smoked for a whole day. Of course, the rest was not wasted. She put it into a bottle and planned to keep it and smoke it slowly.
Chu Xiaoye couldn't complain about her quirk.
The next day, Chu Xiaoye took the elf girls and left here on fat and healthy horses.
Fat Girl took the people ten miles away. When no one was in sight, Fang shouted loudly: "King Stinky Fart! When you find a good place, I will definitely join you!"
Chu Xiaoye heard it, but didn't respond.
He didn't know if he could go back safely, let alone whether he would find the ideal place.
Maybe see you again, maybe never again.
The sun is rising, and it’s another sunny day.
They travel during the day and find a place to rest at night.
Catherine's pathfinding skills were getting higher and higher, and she helped them avoid many orcs along the way.
Half a month later, they finally passed through the orc empire and reached the human capital.
The Southern Tang Kingdom is a human empire with a very prosperous culture and economy. Its rulers have always advocated peace. Even if it borders the Orc Empire, military conflicts rarely occur.
A trade route has been opened here, and two commodity trading cities have even been built specifically, attracting merchants from all over the world. There is an endless stream of merchants who come here to trade every day.
Whether they are humans, orcs, or elves, everyone can see it.
However, for safety reasons, Chu Xiaoye and others still wrapped their headscarves and covered their ears, while Duoya covered the horns around her ears.
The customs in some places are just like this, so no one is surprised.
They rode their war horses and arrived at a bustling town, where there was a bustle of people and a constant flow of various vendors.
Before entering the town, they dismounted from their horses and led the horses forward so as not to be too conspicuous.
It was dusk now and it would be dark soon.
Since there is such a prosperous town, it is natural not to sleep in the open air, using the sky as a bed and the ground as a bed, and suffer the bites of mosquitoes.
In this case, it is definitely safer to blend in with the crowd.
Human countries are relatively safe during the day, but it's hard to say at night.
Chu Xiaoye and others found a slightly larger inn in the town and walked in.
The waiter in the shop greeted them enthusiastically, helped them lead the horses to the stable, and prepared good feed.
Duoya carries a bag of gold coins with her. One gold coin is enough for them to rent several rooms and eat several feasts.
But unfortunately, there are only two wing rooms left in this inn.
Seeing their hesitation, the boss quickly accompanied them and said with a smile: "The inns on this street are full every day. If the guests come a moment later, there will probably be no private rooms. This is also the case in other inns. If the guests come If you don’t believe it, you can ask some people eating there. They searched around the street and found that every inn was full, so they turned back."
Chu Xiaoye made a final decision: "Boss, just two rooms, and we will send some food up later."
It was almost getting dark, and there were so many people on the street. If they were to look for another inn, as the boss said, wouldn't they have to sleep in the wild again
If it is discovered by patrolling human soldiers, trouble will definitely follow.
"okay!"
The boss immediately opened a room for them and asked the waiter to lead them up.
"How can I sleep at night when there are only two beds?"
When going upstairs, Lannixi leaned into Chu Xiaoye's ear and whispered.
Chu Xiaoye knew at a glance that she had evil intentions and wanted to be in a room alone with him and torture him wantonly.
He quickly said: "Catherine and I will sleep on the bench, you girls can do whatever you want."
Lan Nixi pinched his waist hard and gave him a resentful look.
Chu Xiaoye grinned and sighed secretly in her heart. She used to be such a proud and pure queen. Look what she has become now. If I don't stay with her for one night, she will act like a little resentful woman. Oh, woman!
Fortunately, the two wing rooms are next to each other.
The waiter led them to the door, opened the door, and left.
Chu Xiaoye took the lead in entering the room on the right.
Catherine followed without missing a step.
Lan Nixi looked at Fei'er and the others, a little confused.
Several girls looked at her, waiting for her assignment.
There were only two beds, so the four of them definitely couldn't sleep together.
Lan Nixi sighed in her heart and could only say: "Doya, come in with me, and the two of us will sleep together. Ye and Catherine will sleep on the bench. Then, Willis, Denise, and Mayfair, you three Each sleeps in one room.”
Duoya's face turned red, and she quickly waved her hands and said, "No, Sister Lannisi, I'd better sleep in this room over here."
Without waiting for Lan Nixi to reply, she immediately ran in as if running away.
Lan Nixi could only look at Willis.
Willis followed Doya directly into the room without saying a word.
Before Lan Nixi could look over, Denise followed Willis and walked in.
So, only Mayfair stood there.
Fei'er smiled shyly and said expectantly: "Your Majesty, Fei'er, is that okay? Fei'er promises to sleep well and not disturb you and Lord Ye."
Lan Nixi had no choice but to say: "Go in, remember not to talk nonsense."
Fei'er nodded repeatedly and said, "Your Majesty, don't worry, Fei'er's little mouth is very tight."
Soon, the waiter brought a sumptuous dinner.
Both Chu Xiaoye and Catherine ate a lot.
Lan Nixi and Fei'er hardly ate much. Although they had gradually adapted to these meals, they would still feel uncomfortable if they ate too much at one time.
It quickly became dark.
The hall downstairs became even more lively.
The sounds of drinking, punching, talking, and even drinking and cursing can be heard all the time.
However, there are very few fights here. At most, there are a few curses and harsh words at the top of one's voice.
They came here to seek money, and there was no need to stir up trouble just for the sake of temporary anger.
When you are away from home, who wants to have a few more enemies for no reason
It lasted until early morning, and it gradually became quiet down below.
However, the rooms here are not soundproof, and snores and even some discordant sounds began to come from many rooms.
Most prosperous places harbor filth and evil.
What's more, for people here, some industries are normal.
Brothels in the Southern Tang Dynasty blossomed almost everywhere in the country.
Most of the vendors and tourists here are wealthy people. It is normal for them to need some physical comfort when they are away from home without their wives.
However, when the inn room is not soundproofed and there are discordant sounds almost everywhere, some people feel uncomfortable, and some people start to get scared.
Chu Xiaoye, who was lying on the bench, began to get scared.
Moreover, in order to attract more business, the invited women's voices were not only charming, but also so exaggerated that almost the entire inn could be heard.
The boss and the waiter have long been accustomed to the strange behavior, so naturally they will not disturb others and remind them to keep their voices down.
Lan Nixi tossed and turned in bed, but couldn't sleep.
Chu Xiaoye snored in fear, pretending to be asleep and very sleepy.
Lannixi faced outside the bed, opened her eyes in the darkness, looked at him dimly, and listened to the clear voice coming from the next door. She felt that her whole body was hot and she didn't feel sleepy at all.
"Your Majesty, you feel very hot. Are you sick?"
Feier was sleeping inside and found that her body was very hot and she was tossing and turning and couldn't fall asleep, so she quickly asked with concern.
Lan Nixi didn't want to pay attention to her and didn't say anything.
Seeing that she didn't speak, Feier became even more worried. He quickly stretched out his hand, touched her forehead, and said anxiously: "Your Majesty, it's so hot. You are really sick. Can Master Ye get up and help you get medicine?"
Just when Lan Nixi was about to say no, her heart suddenly moved and she hummed twice, indicating that she was feeling a little confused from the fever.
Seeing this, Feier immediately sat up, then turned over her, got out of bed, ran to Chu Xiaoye with her bare feet, pushed him and said: "Master Ye, Master Ye! Your Majesty is sick. It’s so hot, go check it out!”
Chu Xiaoye quickly stood up, walked to the bed, stretched out her hand, and touched Lannixi's forehead, and found that it was indeed a little hot.
Lan Nixi closed her eyes and hummed twice more deliberately, looking uncomfortable.
"Master Ye, what should we do? Let's go get medicine for His Majesty?"
Feier said anxiously.
Chu Xiaoye recalled the shops she saw on the road during Baitian and said, "I don't know where there is a pharmacy, and it's so late, so the pharmacy must have been closed long ago."
"Then what should we do? Your Majesty must be feeling very uncomfortable. You see, Your Majesty is feeling feverish and confused."
Fei'er was so anxious that she was about to cry.
This girl has a simple mind and has no idea that Her Majesty the Queen, whom she respects, is deceitful.
Chu Xiaoye stretched out her hand again and stroked Lannixi's forehead.
At this time, Lan Nixi suddenly groaned, with a painful expression on her face, and a sleepy voice coming out of her mouth: "Ye...Ye..."
"Master Ye, His Majesty must have seen you in his dream. Please help His Majesty."
Faile begged.
Chu Xiaoye had no choice but to say to her: "Fei'er, go sleep on the bench."
He has some medicinal materials that can treat various colds and fevers, but some are not suitable for children.
Fei'er said in confusion: "Master Ye, why do you want me to sleep on the bench? The bench is very hard, and I have to stay with Your Majesty."
Chu Xiaoye could only say: "I want to treat Your Majesty, so I have to sleep with her. You must sleep on the bench, otherwise I won't care."
When Feier heard this, she could only say: "Okay, I'll go to the water bench. Master Ye, hurry up, Your Majesty is in so much pain."
Chu Xiaoye took off her shoes, climbed inside, and lay down next to the Elf Queen. Then she glared at the pink-haired girl who was still standing by the bed and said, "Fei'er, hurry up and leave! No peeking, understand?"
"oh."
Feier reluctantly left, lay down on the bench, and turned her back.
Chu Xiaoye glanced at her, then turned the elf queen over to face him. Just when she was about to kiss her for treatment, she suddenly noticed that the girl was biting her lips, her body was trembling slightly, and she seemed to be suppressing laughter.
In an instant, he understood.
Got fooled!
Just when his face changed drastically and he was about to jump up and run away, Lan Nixi suddenly hugged him, strangled his neck tightly, and thrust her red lips forward, leaving him completely helpless and unable to escape. !
Feier quietly turned her head, opened her big eyes, and looked over.
In the darkness, there was a pair of dark eyes, staring blankly at the bed.
"So this is how Master Ye treats diseases?"
Fei'er thought to herself, then her cheeks started to heat up, and she began to think wildly, hoping that one day she would be sick too.
A quiet night is not a quiet inn.
A group of figures dressed in black and with their faces covered crossed the courtyard wall and rushed in through the back door of the inn.
Under the leadership of one of the waiters, he walked up the stairs quietly.
The waiter took them straight to the two rooms, pointed to the door and made a few gestures.
One of the men in black took out a bamboo tube, quietly poked the window, and started blowing scarlet smoke into one of the rooms.
The other men of the night were holding a sack in their hands and were ready.
