Survive in the beast world

Chapter 96

Bai's expression didn't change much, obviously the appearance of the boat by the river was completely within his expectation.

However, looking at the ship quietly, he frowned. The males around him knew that there must be someone inside, and they all hid in the woods tacitly, keeping quiet, waiting for Bai's order. During countless huntings, the males knew The importance of controlling one's voice and concealing one's position.

The boat was not particularly big, with two cabins one in front and one in the back, with a pottery lamp hanging outside and a mast standing in the middle. At this time, probably because it was docked on the shore, the sails had already been lowered.

This is the darkest moment before dawn, and it is also the moment when everyone sleeps the most in their dreams.It was quiet all around, only the sound of the river flowing.In the wind at dawn, the sound of the water gradually became stronger, and the rustling of the branches and leaves suddenly became louder. The hull swayed with the fluctuation of the current, and swayed dimly with the light of the pottery lamp.

In the wind, accompanied by the vague sound of breaking through the air, the pottery lamp was extinguished.

At this time, the surrounding fell into a real darkness.

Footsteps and low curses sounded on the hull deck, and the air was still cold at this time. The shivering man came out of the cabin at the bow, and was about to reach for the pottery lamp when the back of his head Suddenly there was a hard blow, he let out a muffled groan, his eyes went dark, and he didn't know anything.

It was only then that Bai's whole body emerged from the shadow of the deck. A piece of animal skin was tied to his face, completely covering his hair and cheeks, making him unrecognizable at all.

It seems that the companion did not come back, the sound of talking came from the cabin at the bow, Bai waved his hand towards the cabin, a fragrance of flowers mixed with herbs spread in the cabin at the bow, and the faint human voice in the cabin also Gradually quiet down.

Bai heard that the breathing of the people inside had gradually become heavy, so he quietly moved to the cabin at the stern, and did the same.

Then Bai took out the whistle in front of his waist, and the long and short birdsong rang out on the river.Only then did he lower his head to look at the person knocked unconscious by him, and he saw that he should be a male, but he was covered with a very strange big robe, which made his figure abnormally huge.

But Bai didn't seem to have the slightest curiosity about this person on the ground, and he didn't intend to step forward to examine it carefully. At this time, a dozen orcs jumped onto the boat with wet animal skins tied on their faces according to Bai's instructions.Everyone consciously divided into two teams, one team followed Yong to the stern, and the other team followed Baihou at the bow.

Bai cautiously approached the cabin at the bow of the ship, and listened carefully again. The breathing of the people inside was very heavy and chaotic, and they were indeed in a coma. Then he walked into the cabin first.Ah Chao's mixture of Nepenthes pollen is really effective. It seems that Yang Apa is right, he does have some talent in herbal medicine.

The inside of the cabin was small, with only a few narrow beds, and on each of the two beds was a strangely shaped male covered with animal skins, but there were many bags piled high on the side near the door.

Bai pulled out the iron knife tied to his calf and inserted it slightly into the bag. He dipped a little powder from the knife on his fingertips and put it under the animal hide to taste it. He was sure it was salt.

The orcs who followed behind were all overjoyed when they saw Bai's actions. If there were no accidents, they must be salty!Unexpectedly, they encountered such a dangerous thing on the way to change the salt, and in the end they got so much salt without changing it. However, this salt seems to be a bit much...

But Bai didn't say much, he just gestured and told the orcs to start carrying salt under the boat. Time was running out, so they could move as much as they could.

On the other side, after checking the situation at the stern, Yong also touched it, and gestured for Bai to go and have a look.

The arrangement at the stern is somewhat similar. There are some bags piled up near the door, not as many as at the bow. Some of them seem to be the same as the salt bags over there, and they should be salt, but others look bulging. I don’t know. what's inside.

There are also several beds lined up near these bags, and a female is lying on one of them. She is also completely asleep at this time, and she doesn't know about Bai's arrival.

Different from the bow side, there are more than a dozen females sleeping in the open space of the cabin here. They did not sleep on the beds, but spread animal skins on the ground and crowded them, leaning on each other, probably in a deep sleep. Those medicinal powders didn't bother them at all, and they still fell asleep.

At a glance, Bai saw that the clothing styles of these females were very different, obviously not from the same tribe, and there were so many females without males, and they all smelled very clean and had not undergone rituals.Originally, he led the team out this time to see if it was possible to bring some more females back, but he didn't expect it to be effortless.

Since these females were also brought back by that group of people, it would not be a problem for him to bring them back to Howling Valley.In the thinking of the big cat, the top predator, it is an instinct to plunder from other predators, and he has no intention of consulting these females at all.

Bai didn't hesitate too much, nodded with Yong Yong and called the single males, and signaled the males to come forward one by one, and took the females away one by one, even the female sleeping on the bed, they didn't let go, after all There were more single males than these females, and that female was unexpectedly unceremonious. Bai ruthlessly called for Mo to carry it away, but Mo shook his head and refused.

Bai was a little surprised, but without delay, he signaled another male of the bear clan named Tian to carry the female on his shoulders.

They have limited manpower, and they have to carry so many females. It is impossible to take away the salt bag at the stern, so Bai didn't pay any attention to it. But when he opened the bag that looked bulging, he found that it was some kind of seed cloth. , apart from anything else, Bai himself carried a bag of this kind of things that Li Shizhen must be interested in.

After all this fuss, the sky had gradually turned pale, and the remaining salty white did not allow the males to move. He ordered everyone to carry the females and their belongings and prepare to evacuate. Except him, Yong and Mo, there were two more Except for the poor male who was still alone, the other males each carried a bag of things and a female and retreated to the shore first.

But including the two single males without females, everyone thinks this treatment is fair, because they are the last orcs to join the Howling Valley, and the males who screamed in the past are basically tigers, wolves and bears People from the ethnic group, they have long been in the team and have made contributions to the team. It is tacitly understood by everyone, and no one raises any objections to this arrangement.

Although the custom in the valley is that the females pick the males, that is the privilege of the females in their valley. When the males go out to take the females back, it is obviously the males who are picking the females.The priority of this selection is the order in which Bai called people to the past.

The order in which Bai called was also based on age and status in the team, and there was no confusion at all. In this case, even the two males did not feel any grievances, but they were determined to work hard. It will be their turn.

As for the mood of those females, it was completely out of Bai's consideration at this time. When he returned to Howling Valley, Li Shizhen was naturally there to take care of it and win people's hearts.As for Li Shizhen's views on his robbery behavior, the big cat at this time completely doesn't think about it...

Bai and the three of them cleaned up the traces that might be left on the cabin one by one. After finishing everything, he quietly took out the gray feather from his arms and threw it on the cabin.

After wiping away all traces, they left quietly, as if they had never appeared before.

In fact, the group of them didn't move very far, they only advanced along the river bank for a period of time, seeing that the sky had already brightened, they immediately picked the densest forest and ordered them to stop, and the orcs were ordered to cut down. Once the branches covered the ground, everyone quickly hid under the branches, covering their figures with various branches and leaves.

Bai looked at the females and frowned slightly, and finally signaled to the males to tie up the completely unknown females first, and then covered their eyes and mouths.

After reading Bai's gesture commands, the young males with females around them were stunned for a moment, almost thinking that they had read wrongly. After Bai gestured again, the males believed that Bai was indeed a ruthless person, but they After all, the one on my back might be my future partner, so rude, everyone was a bit overwhelmed for a while...

Bai impatiently gestured at the sky, those powders have been used up, he can no longer stun these females again, he doesn't want to cause unnecessary trouble because of these females.

He made a gesture and directly handed over the work to Yong and Mo who had no females around.

Yong and Mo looked at each other, shook their heads helplessly at the other males, and began to carry out Qi Bai's orders.

But the two of them still have a sense of proportion, just to ensure that the female can't escape and can't make a sound, and it's not particularly tight. The males seem to have a strong sense of territory at this time. Jian Yong and Mo Zhen are executing Bai's Order, without waiting for the two of them to do anything, tied up the female first.

The two of them looked at each other for a while, but they couldn't laugh or cry. These guys knew what to do now, and Bai's order just now was obviously for their own good. If they were not tied up, they would still run away if they were found, and they would have no females.

However, since Bai just gave the order directly to the two of them, Yong and Mo carefully checked the situation of the other males being tied up. "help".

Seeing that they couldn't get away with it, the males resentfully stretched the rope and animal skin to an appropriate level, at least they didn't fall loose when they were pulled.

After everything was settled, everyone quietly crouched under the dense branches.

There were gradually sharp whistling sounds from the place where the boats were docked on the distant river bank. The males looked at each other, not knowing what happened, but Bai's expression was very calm. So far, everything is still under his control. Fighting over there Both parties must not know that they are the group of people who came out to intercept the Hu.

Everyone saw Bai's normal expression and gradually calmed down. During the day, the females woke up one after another. After struggling a few times, they all seemed very panicked. They obviously didn't know what was going on. When he got into the cabin, he was blindfolded and tied up when he woke up.

The males used their instincts to appease their quasi-female in silence. They seemed to feel that there was no hostility from the people around them. The females gradually quieted down, but Bai's gaze was always lingering in the sky.

After the distant sound completely disappeared for a long time, the sun had already set in the west, and Bai gave the order to start eating. The females were untied for the first time, put down the animal skins in front of them, and some began to observe the surrounding situation and the animals around them. The males come.A few females, however, blushed and tried to step aside to solve personal problems.

In this situation, the males did not interfere, but some of them did try to escape while taking advantage of the convenience, and were quickly caught up by their respective males and brought back, but Bai on one side frowned.

And the female that Tian brought was obviously dressed far better than the other females, and was talking loudly to Tian, ​​and he shook off Tian's hand and wanted to leave alone.

Bai coldly opened his mouth and said something that the males didn't understand, but the female stopped suddenly and turned around to look at Bai in disbelief.

Bai said something again, the female was so terrified that her face turned pale, and the condescending expression on her face disappeared, but she was still trembling and arguing with Bai, Bai didn't move, and only said a few words lightly , the female is completely sluggish.

Tian seemed a bit unbearable. Bai is the leader, but this female is not yet his concubine, and she has no friendship with him. Of course, he can't refute Bai face to face for such a female.

But when Bai turned and ignored the female, Tian still tried to step forward to comfort the female clumsily.

The other females obviously come from different backgrounds, but they are also completely different from that female. After seeing their companions who failed to escape and were brought back without punishment, they all calmly recognized their current situation, and the males around them did not intend to bully them at all. On the contrary, they acted quite caringly, but they had no intention of letting them go. Normal people would choose to compromise under such helpless circumstances, and of course they could only accept their fate temporarily.

This meal was just some leftover barbecue meat that the males ate before, but after so many days of consumption, the food was not enough. The males still gave priority to the food to the female next to them, perhaps because of the strong instinct of courtship. ?Even for the females who had just tried to escape, the males did not spare food. They seemed to know how to please their future mates instinctively. Most of the females who were dazed and frightened looked much better, and at least they could show a grateful expression. Here comes the smile.

After eating, everyone rested in place, and Bai only let the males take care of their females, and they were not allowed to move around or make noises.

After dark, Bai ordered the males to change into animal shapes. Taking advantage of the night, the males needed to carry the female and the salt bag on their backs and move forward at full speed.Bai Youyan said first, if the male is not willing to tie up his females, it is fine, but the team will never stop for these females, even if these females are in the slightest danger in the dark night, they will never reach out to rescue them.

Bai's order sounds extremely cruel, but these females are not the people he wants to protect, and he will never change the original plan easily for the sake of outsiders. When these females come back, it may not be so dangerous.

The males can see the differences at this time. For their future spouse, in this completely unfamiliar situation, some people choose to tie up, some people are very hesitant, and some people are very confident and not at all. tied meaning.Interestingly, several females seemed to understand what Bai meant, and offered to ask to be tied up, and the best-dressed female was actually one of them.

Seeing this scene, Bai just raised his eyebrows and didn't interfere in any way. He could give the males a chance to pick these females because of their performance in the team, but what about the last days? It depends on the performance of these males themselves and how they get along with these quasi-mates.

This situation is just the first test. If the males around the females who want to leave wholeheartedly don't have the courage to tie them down, they might as well throw them on the way, and bring them back to Howling Valley to cause trouble for Ah Zhao.As for whether this kind of binding will make the female misunderstand the male, the calm big cat feels indifferently, if he can't even coax this little thing, the male deserves to be without a female for his whole life.

Under the glance of the white eyes, the males' decisions were quite quick. Those who were tied or not tied had already been executed, and those who were hesitant had already made up their minds and put them into action.Big Cat's understanding of the abilities and personalities of his subordinates has also been silently updated.At this time, you can often see the characteristics of a person's personality and ability to handle things.

The orcs packed up their clothes, cleaned up the traces, and quickly set foot on the road back to Howling Valley under the leadership of Yong.

Bai himself was at the end of the line, cleaning up the traces from time to time and observing the situation behind.

After resting during the day and traveling at night for several days, Bai Cai ordered everyone to take a good rest and resume their normal work and rest. After all, the road ahead is getting more and more difficult and the number of predators is gradually increasing. Although the path chosen by Yong is reliable and safe, But safety is only relative. The danger in the rear has been gradually eliminated, and it is too risky to carry so many females on the road at night.

Along the way, Bai's principle has never changed. Before departure every day, it is up to the male himself to decide whether to tie or not.Some males were not tied at first, but gradually became tied.Some were originally bound, but gradually loosened.Although it is not easy to tie a person in the form of a beast, if you are determined to do it, it is not impossible.

And on the way, a female did run away.It was the first time he ran away during a break during a daytime drive, and although the female had attempted to escape on the first day, his male did not tie him up.He probably saw that the previous few times he traveled at night, and it was dangerous to escape at night, but he had no chance during the day, so he couldn't wait to run away as soon as Bai ordered to travel during the day.

The direction in which the female ran immediately changed the face of the male who was beside him. The male roared a few times, but only made the female run faster and faster.Bai just smiled coldly at this, and held down the male who wanted to catch up, and don't ask for help if he dares to run away. If the female can survive alone like Ah Tuo, then he doesn't mind if the female might reveal their group news.

Bai's eyes were also looking at the male. The strength he was pressing on the male's shoulders was not strong. Would he break free to chase a female?Or give up on this female?The male seemed to struggle for a moment, but he looked at Bai and the brothers around him, and turned his head silently, not looking at the direction in which the female was running away.

There were several shrill screams from a distance, and the big cat curled its lips. How many females like Ah Tuo are there?He only patted the male on the shoulder. Since he had given trust that shouldn't be given, he had to take the risk of losing it. Losing it early was at least less expensive than losing it later.He will take some time to have a good talk with the male.

There will be more and more people in Howling Valley in the future, but Bai hopes that there will be no less brothers around him who can entrust their lives. They will be his arms in the future, and Bai hopes that they will be stronger, no matter what.

In a voice that was getting weaker and weaker, Bai ordered the team to move on, and now the number of males in the team who did not have to be blamed had increased to six, and the team did not leave any hidden dangers behind.

The rest of the females shuddered when they saw the cruel big cat. Although the escaped female was not familiar with them, and she was a little whimsical, but the big cat's behavior of watching people die made the females feel that he was just a sucker. A human demon, the leader of this team is definitely the one they dare not provoke and the last thing they want to deal with.

At least, after this incident, the females never dared to escape easily.And the choice of the males did not change immediately because of the incident of the female escaping, but gradually there were a few more people on the road who were unwilling to tie up their females.

Bai just watched silently, without saying a word.The road is chosen by themselves, and they will have to walk it step by step in the future.

In the process of killing all the way and moving forward, no female was tied up from one day onwards, and from that day onwards, no one mentioned the decisions that had to be made every day before.

Bai also seems to have forgotten that he has repeatedly emphasized the choice that the males must make, and only cares about leading the team to avoid danger, or breaking out of the encirclement and advancing all the way.

There are always many dangers on the land. They carry so much salt and females, and the risk factor has also risen sharply. But along the way, the males have never voluntarily given up on any female. The males would rather hurt themselves and at least protect themselves. The female on her back, on this point, Bai has never objected.The females gradually interacted more with the males around them.

Under the simple and rough trust game of the big cats, these females gradually began to take on their own responsibilities, helping to prepare meals, take care of the injured, and even collect some fruits together in a slightly safer environment.Tian's female does know a lot, at least he seems to be the leader of this group of females.

Bai just watched all this indifferently, but he was thinking in his heart that maybe a grand ceremony of bond formation would be held immediately after returning to the valley.It's just that I don't know what my partner is busy with right now, and if he misses himself as much as he misses him.

In Howling Valley at this time, as the weather is getting hotter, the corn has already jointed and eared. Li Shizhen, who is already thinking about the harvest, occasionally misses the big cat who has not come back after going out for so long. Of course, Li Shizhen He never imagined how many new Howling Hollow members and headaches the big cat would bring him.
