Chapter 384: An Unexpected Invitation
"And do you two plan to continue wandering like this?"
Xiao Yi asked suddenly.
From the conversation he had just learned, the little tiger was called Cam Talon and the little lion was named Buzz Starry Night, and both of them were descendants of their respective clan leaders, that is, the class commonly known as the orc royal family by humans. According to the two of them, they originally lived with their clan on the barren plain at the easternmost tip of the mainland, which Xiao Yi originally knew.
According to records, since the end of the ancient war between various races and high elves on the continent, human beings have become the absolute rulers of the continent because of their huge advantages in numbers and strength, although they did not deliberately persecute other races, but under the law of the jungle, they occupied the vast majority of resources and territories, objectively excluding other non-human races and had to migrate to remote areas, so as to avoid competing with humans for survival resources.
Originally, the two little things lived peacefully in their own tribe, slowly growing up, taking over the position of the clan leader from the hands of their elders, and passing it on from generation to generation. But there are unforeseen circumstances, according to the customs of the orc race, whether it is a leader or an ordinary clan, they have to be trained in hunting and fighting since childhood, if it is a royal family, because they are born with a more flexible humanoid form, so the age of participating in training is younger than that of ordinary orcs.
Cam and Buzz were robbed during a long-distance hunting experience because they encountered a bandit group, because they were young orcs, they would be raised as pets and slaves by some wealthy people who liked novelty, so they were sold by the bandits to slave traders who specialized in human trafficking.
The two little ones kept their hunting beast form so that the slave traders let down their guard and treated them like ordinary young orcs, only to be escaped at night by the two little orcs who had turned into human forms and broke the simple locks on the cage.
However, in order to prevent the pursuit of the officials and the revenge of the bitter master, the robber group has long fled three thousand miles away after the raid, and the two little orcs who have never been far from the home environment have been brought into the human living area, even if they are lucky enough to escape the control of the wicked, but there is no way to return to their homeland.
As a royal family, he can completely transform into a human form, and it is not easy to be recognized among humans, but after all, they are only two children who have never left home, and they have no ability to make a living, so it is absolutely impossible to return to their remote hometown by crossing thousands of mountains and rivers on their own.
At the same time, they have no way to turn to other people for help, otherwise the plot will definitely develop like this: "Please help us go to a place, there will be a lot of thanks...... Where, the orc territory of the barren plains...... Why are you going, where is my house...... Don't believe me, I'll turn into a tiger and show you...... Alas, what are you doing with me!"
Embarrassment............
The helpless duo can only survive by begging and stealing, and they have to beware of traffickers who are also interested in children and those who bully them, and they have been living on the streets for half a year and traveling to several countries, suffering from hunger, cold, lovesickness, ridicule, and humiliation, and the two little ones have persevered for their lives.
The two of them, who hadn't eaten properly for several days, had only touched here in the past few days, and then they were caught by Xiao Yi.
Xiao Yi's memory is not that he has never seen such an experience, thinking that none of the members in the orphanage did not have a basket of miserable stories, but they all have one thing in common, that is, homelessness, and finally found a warmer family in the orphanage, which is a blessing.
But the two little guys in front of him can't go back to their homes and can't talk about their suffering, which is really sympathetic, so this profiteer seems to be ready to go back to his old business.
Faced with his question, Buzz and Cam, who were munching heavily, both stopped, their faces very ugly.
"I don't know, what can I do if I don't want to, I can't go back just by the two of us!"
"Well, do you want me to help you?!"
Xiao Yi threw out a very tempting proposal, but the two little guys were not as overjoyed as they imagined.
"What's your purpose?" asked Buzz the little lion, somewhat indifferently.
"There's no purpose, just to help you?"
Xiao Yi said strangely.
"Save it, do you think I'll believe it!" Buzz sneered, and it wasn't just him, but even the somewhat stupid Cam had a bad face.
Xiao Yi realized that he was probably acting a little anxious!
Although the Terrans and other aliens are ostensibly peaceful, the actual relationship has deteriorated over time, and anyone, even a helpless child, will scream and run away when they see the alien race and report it to the adults, who will then report it to the defending army, and when they are apprehended, even the most merciful monarch will not allow the aliens to panic in their territory, and the best outcome is expulsion.
And there are not a few people who have a hostile attitude towards other alien races, if you really encounter 3, it is very likely that you will become a corpse for people to vent their anger, and in the past six months, the life of the low-level civilians in various countries has also made these two little things accustomed to the ugliness and deception in human nature, and even the humanoid creatures who treat their own kind so viciously will help two young beasts of the alien race for no reason and without asking for anything in return, what a joke!
"I know you don't believe me, but that's okay, you two should understand that it's dangerous to wander like this, so I suggest that you just listen to it, at least it won't hurt you!"
Putting the chair on the back of the chair with his hands in turn, Xiao Yi said with a seemingly indifferent attitude: "You should know that I am the owner of this shop, right, so it is still useful for me to talk here!"
You've eaten the food in the store, and it tastes good, so the business is very good, and there is a shortage of people who work naturally...... Well, I mean, I can hire both of you to do the work, and then provide you with food and shelter, but I won't be paid for it for the time being, and it depends on how you behave in the future!
How's that, interested?"
After staring at Xiao Yi for a long time, Buzz suppressed his emotional fluctuations and asked:
"Why!"
Xiao Yi naturally understood why the other party asked like this, so he smiled: "You guys take it as my interest for the time being, I have never seen the existence of the orc race, so I think it should be very interesting to take you in! Of course, you can also disagree, in that case, I will let you go when you finish eating, and it is your freedom to choose, but I suggest that you choose to stay, after all, ......
Kids of your age have worked hard to do this, so don't push yourself too hard! When you're tired, lie down and take a break, so you'll be happier tomorrow, right?"
