Chapter 116: Orc Bazaar (3)
The thought that came to his mind made Min Mo stunned for a moment.
However, before he could think more or react, Ming Ruotong had already taken a cheerful step and looked in the direction of the footprints.
"Min Mo, keep up, keep up!"
A brittle call from a female came from ahead, interrupting all his jumbled thoughts in an instant. Looking at the reflection in his eyes, the little face that was full of vitality because he might find a way out, his feet couldn't help but follow.
Yes......
Min Mo's beautiful blue eyes stared at the back tightly, his gaze was sticky and he couldn't move away, and the already deep look in his eyes became more and more obscure and low.
No way......
…… Even if you know those things, what can you change? Is there anything he can change?
So far, let's take one step and count it as one step.
And he felt that although he confirmed that he liked Ming Ruotong, he should, probably, maybe not like it to what extent......? So for some things about her, he can still control his feelings...... Right?
……
……
Following the traces of footprints on the muddy ground, Ming Ruotong walked all the way through tall trees, low bushes, and jagged weeds, all the way around him, and finally crossed the woods around him and came to an open flat land.
The vision in front of her suddenly widened, but compared to the ease of walking out of the woods where she had been lost and wandering for the past few days, what surprised her even more was that not far from her, there seemed to be other people's voices coming.
She's pretty sure.
It must have been the voice of an orc, and more than one person.
Because in the faint sound, she caught the "freshly hunted prey" more clearly...... Exchange ......" this sentence.
Ming Ruotong felt that she finally saw a little hope of getting rid of her lost, and suddenly happily swept away the fatigue of her initial recovery from a cold, and turned around to greet Min Mo, who followed silently, "Min Mo Min Mo!" There seems to be someone in front, let's go and take a look! ”
Before Min Mo could reply with a "hmm", he saw that the little female in front of him had already turned around and ran out with great joy.
"......" He didn't know how to react, but he just had to follow her.
On this side, as Ming Ruotong approached, those looming voices gradually became louder, as if many people were gathered together, and all kinds of shouts were mixed together noisily, so that people could imagine that it must be a lively scene without seeing the real scene.
Ming Ruotong didn't know what she was doing, and she couldn't figure out if she had come somewhere, and when she climbed over a high dirt slope, a complete scene was finally reflected in front of her.
At this moment, Xiaogu Liang was a little shocked.
She opened a pair of big eyes in surprise, and her dark pupils looked curiously ahead.
Indeed, as expected, it was a lively scene.
All kinds of orcs flowed endlessly, some alone, some in groups of three or five, and one after another people passed by each other, each walking on a nine-winding avenue, each carrying different things in their hands.
On both sides of the avenue were a series of stall-like hides with all sorts of items, some of which were idle, some were selling hard, and some were even missing.
And the orcs on the avenue stay here and there from time to time. Everyone shuttles between people and objects, and the scene not only makes people feel a hot atmosphere, but also makes people feel a busy and enthusiastic empathy in their hearts.
The sister-in-law Liang was stunned, looking left and right with all kinds of curiosity like a country bun entering the city, and just wondered if he should go over and take a look immediately, Min Mo's voice behind him came first, "That...... Is it a bazaar? ”
He walked to Ming Ruotong's side, looked at the lively scene in front of the dirt slope, and recalled in his mind what the elders of the clan had described to him, life on land.
"Your orcs on the land will gather together at a certain time to exchange with each other what they bring with them what they think is valuable, and this is called buying and selling, and the place where you buy and sell is called the bazaar. That's it, is it? ”
There are rules in the mermaid tribe, and underage clansmen are not allowed to leave the clan, and clansmen who do not meet the standards of self-protection are not allowed to set foot on land. As a mermaid with strong roots, Min Mo could only learn about the world he didn't know from other people's mouths before he got lost on land.
And after getting lost, until now, these incomparably real scenes presented in front of him made him a little trance and surprised for a while.
Among his clan, there are some males or females from the land, who can live under the surface of the water by eating the mermaid's night pearl, and the land orcs who stay there have shown off the liveliness of the ground more than once like him, the prosperity of the ground, and the difference between the ground and the bottom of the sea.
Because of his status, he is particularly valued in the clan, and this attention has also become a cage for young children who cannot move freely.
He is controlled more strictly than the rest of the clansmen. As a minor, he was not allowed to communicate with females on land, and even though he had some self-preservation ability as an adult, he was advised not to go near land for a long time.
The father beast taught him harshly, hoping that he would become his successor, and the mother beast gently admonished him, hoping that he would put his clan first in everything.
In his opinion, there was nothing wrong with this, and he had accepted the idea that he had been a child, and he did. But the youth must grow up eventually, and the seeds of youthful and frivolous rebellion exist in everyone's heart, just to see when it will sprout.
And Min Mo can't remember which time, under a chance whim, he secretly mixed in a group of land orcs, and for the first time, carefully followed them out of the sea where he had lived since childhood.
The moment the warm and brilliant sun hit him, the longing for the land rose in his heart almost immediately.
If......
If he can go to land......
“…… Hey, hey, Min Mo, Min Mo! Come back to your senses, come back to your senses! ”
A crisp voice suddenly sounded in his ears, and Min Mo's blue eyes seemed to precipitate a sea of stars, and his bright and deep gaze turned to the owner of the voice.
The face reflected in her eyes was still so familiar, but at this moment, there was a bit of a anxious expression on her face.
Yes...... It seems that it was because she had been thinking about things just now, and she didn't respond no matter how she shouted, so she was like this......
And at this moment, Ming Ruotong's sister-in-law Liang saw that Min Mo had finally come back to her senses, and she immediately breathed a sigh of relief, "Hmm, you scared me, suddenly motionless and didn't say anything, I thought it was the snake that bit you before was really poisonous and you started to have a poisonous attack." ”
Yes...... She still remembers this kind of little thing......
"And besides, that's what you call a bazaar! The road to heaven is endless, let's go and take a look, Min Mo, we can finally find someone to ask for directions! When the time comes, you can also ask where the merfolk are, and you will definitely be able to go home! ”
Yes......
Seeing that the little female next to her was full of fighting spirit and was about to run over, Min Mo pursed her lips and suddenly grabbed her wrist.
He opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something, but the words were on his lips, and in the end, they only became one sentence, "Tsk...... You...... You first stain or cover your face, don't just pass it like that. ”
