Cangfeng Ridge.
Xie Man was cold all over, but when he entered the warm house, his cheeks instantly became hot.
He looked at Hu Jiaojiao, who was sitting by the window, twisting left and right and making strange movements, and coughed lightly.
"Hey! I've asked everyone for their opinions..."
When Hu Jiaojiao heard the sound, she stopped what she was doing. She had been in the house for so long that she felt like her arms and legs were becoming old.
She turned to look at Xie Man, who was still emitting cold air, and said preemptively:
"Well, they have no objection, right? I said, this is a piece of cake, they will definitely agree."
"… "
Seeing Hu Jiaojiao's expression as if he had taken great advantage of her, Xie Man was ready to take advantage of her, but his words of negotiating some favorable conditions were immediately stuck in his throat.
So, it seemed like they were taking advantage by going to her tribe.
Is it a bit too much to negotiate the conditions again
If she changes her mind and doesn't help them, it will be more trouble than gain...
Countless thoughts flashed through Xie Man's mind in an instant, and in the end he just nodded.
"Um… "
Hu Jiaojiao curled her lips, wanting to control her, but she was still a little too young.
I didn’t read so many novels in vain.
Innocence and simplicity mostly exist in people with simple backgrounds. Someone like Xieman, who can have a say among hundreds of beast slaves, must be shrewd and scheming.
There is no world full of truly honest people. No matter whether they are humans or orcs, whether they are in modern times or in the animal world, they are only trying to maximize their own interests and the interests of their tribe.
As long as there are interests, there will be calculations.
Hu Jiaojiao doesn't think there is anything wrong with this. As long as there is no intention to harm others, Xie Man can be a good partner.
"By the way, you've been in the tribe for a long time, so you should know the witch doctor's preferences, right?"
"What do you like?"
Xie Man thought about it carefully and answered seriously:
"The witch doctor doesn't like noise, and even her house leader is arranged to the most remote place."
Fox Jiaojiao raised her eyebrows.
This is clearly Lang Shuo's excuse to control the witch doctor!
"What else?"
"Witch doctors like beautiful animal skins, delicious food, and fresh fruits..."
Hu Jiaojiao shook her head as she listened. This was all very common information, and it wasn't even certain whether it was true or false.
"Oh, by the way, the witch doctor's most precious thing is her tree root. She always carries it with her when she goes out, and never lets other orcs touch it."
Xie Man recalled carefully.
"When the witch doctor first arrived at the tribe, an orc threw away the tree root while cleaning. The witch doctor got very angry and almost jumped off the mountain. Fortunately, he found it back later."
"Is that tree root so important?" Hu Jiaojiao was a little surprised.
They are willing to sacrifice their lives for the sake of the tree roots.
Does that thing have any special use
…
Night falls.
The two wolves guarding the gate stood at the door dutifully.
Hu Jiaojiao put a wig on the little beast slave, let him lie on her bed, and then took out the sleeping pills from the space to reward the two diligent wolves.
After a while, the two wolves fainted at the door.
At Hu Jiaojiao's request, Xie Man and the little beast slave stayed directly in her house at night.
Seeing Hu Jiaojiao taking out strange things one after another, Xie Man's eyelids twitched and he couldn't help feeling confused.
Where on earth did this female get these strange objects
There were obviously not many things in this room, so how did she hide them without being discovered by the leader
Hu Jiaojiao moved the two wolves together, took out two long pieces of wood that had been prepared long ago, and looked at the stunned Xie Man behind her:
"What are you still standing there for? Come and help me!"
Xie Man came to his senses and walked over with a sullen face.
"How?"
Hu Jiaojiao handed him the wood and said, "Insert it where they are standing guard and tie them to it. This way, if the patrolling Canglang orcs come, they won't notice it as long as they don't get close."
Xie Man was confused as to how she could come up with such weird ideas.
It actually works well...
Xie Man did as he was told and after tying up the wolf, Hu Jiaojiao waited for the next wave of patrolling orcs to pass by and made sure that they had not noticed anything unusual before leaving with Xie Man.
"Change into a beast and take me there." Hu Jiaojiao ordered without any pretense.
It is easier for males to hide in animal form and less likely to be discovered.
"No." Xie Man had a strange look on his face and refused outright.
Fox glanced at him tenderly, wondering what was wrong with her sudden shy look. What was so shameful about being in animal form
"Do you want us to be discovered by the Gray Wolf Orcs?" She frowned.
Suddenly he thought of something and explained, "Don't worry, I have no interest in you. Today is just a special situation. I won't use this to entangle you after I escape. I already have a partner and cubs."
Considering that Xie Man might misunderstand, she decided to make it clear in advance.
Xie Man kept a sullen face and said nothing. He also knew that now was not the time to be pretentious, so he stretched out his hands awkwardly:
"Help me untie this first."
Locked with iron chains, he couldn't open them even when he transformed into a beast, and his movements were restricted.
Hu Jiaojiao used an electric saw to help him cut the chains. Xie Man moved his free hands and feet happily, and then reluctantly turned into a beast form.
"Horse? No, this is a unicorn?"
Hu Jiaojiao was a little surprised when she saw Xieman's beast form.
Under the silvery moonlight, a snow-white beast shaped like a horse stood proudly, and its snow-white and shiny hair seemed to emit a faint colorful fluorescence under the moonlight.
What shocked Hu Jiaojiao the most was the pure white horn on its head, which was exactly the same as the legendary unicorn.
"This is much more handsome than a rhinoceros..." Hu Jiaojiao sighed quietly. Westerners believe that rhinoceros is the prototype of unicorns, but after seeing the animal form of Xieman, she realized that the gap is not a little bit.
"What unicorn, what rhino? I'm from the Xiezhi tribe." Xie Man said coldly, "Come up quickly."
Hu Jiaojiao wanted to go up, but the beast form of this creature was at least two meters tall, and she couldn't get up at all.
Xieman snorted, then crawled down with its front legs bent, allowing Hu Jiaojiao to climb up.
"Well, do you fly or run?" Hu Jiaojiao asked curiously.
Xiezhi is a mythical beast, similar to the Western unicorn, but the unicorn has wings and Xiezhi does not.
She also remembered that the books recorded that the Xiezhi was as big as a cow, with thick dark hair all over its body, which was completely different from the Xieman in appearance.
It’s really a combination of Chinese and Western cultures.
"What do you think?" Xieman scratched his hoof and said unhappily.
He is not a bird, how can he fly? This female must be mocking him on purpose!
Then he ran out at full speed, as fast as lightning in the darkness, and people could only catch a glimpse of his afterimage.
"!!"
Hu Jiaojiao's body leaned back uncontrollably, and she subconsciously grabbed the sideburns on both sides of Xiezhi's head with her hands to avoid being thrown out.
She seriously suspected that this guy was taking revenge on her!
With Xieman leading the way, the two successfully avoided the patrolling wolves and came to the outside of the small dark room.
Hu Jiaojiao followed the same method and used drugs to knock out the guarding wolf orc and successfully entered the small dark room.
