Caius's face changed dramatically, and his heart was in a panic that he had never felt before—could it be that in his absence, the little female was attacked by other beasts?

Without saying a word, he turned the mountain forest upside down, but he couldn't find her whereabouts, and there was no breath of other beasts around, not even a trace of blood......

Caius returned to his place in shock, only to find that a small porcelain vase had been left on the stone, and that it had been carefully bandaged with a cute little bow.

He hurriedly swam over, took the porcelain vase in his hand, and opened it to smell it.

It's a medicinal powder.

She went away, but left him the medicine that could heal him, because she was afraid that he would be hurt?

A hint of warmth welled up in Caius's heart.

But why didn't she say hello to herself when she left?

Caius's long eyelashes drooped slightly, his cold long fingers rubbed against the porcelain vase, and a pair of scarlet snake eyes revealed longing and frustration. Standing in place, standing still for a long time.

He waited here for a long, long time, until night fell, the stars and the moon shimmered, and the dawn broke, but he did not wait for the little female who had been longing for him to return.

Sure she's really gone and won't come back.

Caius turned into a black python and disappeared into the jungle.

……

On the other side, a few hours ago, Bai Susu was directly teleported back to the house by the system.

The original slave is not at home, and is probably looking for himself outside.

She quickly changed her clothes and shoes, and was just about to go out, when she suddenly remembered that the original slave was a wolf beast with a first-class sense of smell, although she herself could not smell the snake smell on her body, but once she walked to him, she would definitely show her feet.

system, "Master, I just found a nice prop that can be designated to block the smell that a person leaves on themselves, I think you should need it!" ”

Bai Susu, "How much?" ”

"Three points!"

"......" just got three points from the snake and snake, and he was about to lose it.

The system is kind and seductive, "Master, think about it, you must often run on both sides during this time, in case you are found by the male master's original slave, it will be wasted, and although this prop costs three points, it can be used permanently." ”

If you use it permanently, it's worth it.

Bai Susu's heart moved, a spray appeared in her hand, she quickly swept it twice on her body, and took a bamboo basket full of fresh fruits and vegetables from the warehouse on the third floor, and just wanted to go downstairs to push the door, she saw the door open.

Before she could react, she was hugged by a gentle and strong embrace, and her body froze slightly, and she let out a strange "huh", "...... What's wrong? Did something happen? ”

She could feel the boy's arms trembling and tense from too much force, the fluffy soft hair against her shoulders and neck, and the slightly drooping wolf ears swept across her sensitive neck, tickling and crispy.

The original slave sighed with palpitations, and it took a long time before letting her go.

“…… Where have you been? Why can't I find you? His gaze fell on her, and he pursed his lips, his voice low and hoarse.

The joy of the lost and regained in his eyes was quickly hidden by him, his face was slightly gloomy and cold, and when the original slave was not smiling, there was a bit of natural oppression.

is obviously a handsome young man, but his temperament is mature and stable like an old cadre.

And blame the bluffing.

Bai Susu sighed in his heart.

"You're looking for me?"

She seemed a little strange why his expression was so serious, and lifted the vegetable basket in her hand, "I didn't go to do anything, I heard Uncle Wolf say that you will come back in the afternoon, and it just so happens that there is not much food in the house, so I went to the trade area to buy some food." ”

"Don't you know, the trade zone is so big, bigger than an entire Bach tribe!"

Her beautiful apricot eyes were shining, and in an exaggerated tone, she couldn't help but gesture with her hands, "There is also a market specializing in fruits, vegetables and mushrooms, and there are a lot of wild vegetables and fruits that I have never eaten!" ”

"There are also long-tailed rats and orcs selling small straw mushrooms, which look very fresh, and I have bought a lot."

"You make me mushroom broth tonight!"

Bai Susu handed him the basket of vegetables.

The original slave took the basket and said almost instinctively, "Okay, female master." ”

But then he realized that something was wrong, and quickly reacted, and his face turned cold again, "You only went to the vegetable market today, and didn't go anywhere else?" Didn't get out of town? ”

"Well, I was so bored at home, so after I finished my grocery shopping, I walked around the city and bought some gemstone jewelry and stuff."

Bai Susu looked at him with a strange face, "Why is your expression so strange today, and why am I going out of the city?" ”

"It's okay, it's not been peaceful outside the city recently, I heard that there have been several waves of beast tides, killing and injuring many orcs, don't go out if you have nothing to do recently, stay in the city."

The original slave didn't continue to ask, but just asked carefully.

But for some reason, he always felt that something was not right in his heart, so he leaned a little closer and sniffed at her without a trace...... There was no suspicious smell found.

"You go cook, I'm a little tired, let's go to the room to rest first."

was secretly poked and poked seven or eight times by the young man with such a cautious gaze, Rao is Bai Susu couldn't bear it, so he found a reason and left.

The slave withdrew his gaze and was about to go to the kitchen, but his steps staggered—he finally realized where that strange feeling came from.

There was a little mud on her bare arms and calves, and there were even several shallow red marks, as if they had been scratched by sharp leaves in the mountains and forests.

However, the City of Ten Thousand Beasts is also one of the top ten cities here, except for some special forest areas, there are almost no dirt roads in the city, and the major streets are all paved with stone slabs that are meters wide and long.

Where does the soil come from?

And didn't she go to the vegetable market to buy vegetables, and how did those shallow scratches on her body come from? By...... Scratched by a vegetable leaf?

The original slave stiffened for a moment, narrowed her eyes, glanced in the direction of her room, and then withdrew her gaze for a long time, and bowed her head again into the kitchen.

……

Since the original slave came to the City of Ten Thousand Beasts, he basically didn't stay at home much every day except for meal time.

After eating, he left again.

"Young master, I have already taken care of the relationship on the city lord's side, and everything is ready."

Uncle Wolf was followed by several tall wolf beasts, carrying large boxes and boxes of precious materials onto the cart.

A few people went to the center of the city, a tall stone fortress, where the city lord of the Ten Thousand Beasts City lived.

"Please come in."

Several guards at the gate seemed to have received the order and respectfully made a gesture of invitation.

The original slave and the wolf Ken looked at each other, nodded, and he asked a few wolf beasts to wait outside the door with supplies, and then he walked into the stone castle alone.

The area in the house was very large, and the city lord had already waited solemnly with several beast clan patriarchs in gorgeous robes, and when he saw the young man entering the house, his face changed several times, and it was difficult to hide the complicated color.

The middle-aged tiger beast around 40 years old on the highest seat was none other than Hu Che, the city lord of Ten Thousand Beast City, with four blood-red beast patterns on his arm, symbolizing that his strength was already a very powerful fourth-order orc.

He looked at the young man standing in the doorway, and the cold and majestic coercion was silently released.

The original slave gritted his teeth, his face turned pale in an instant, and he could feel the terrifying coercion pressing down on him like a thousand pounds of boulders, forcing his fragile knees to bend subconsciously, almost kneeling on the cold hard floor as a sign of submission.

He gritted his teeth and resisted.

There was a salty smell in his throat, and a trace of blood oozed from the corner of his lips.

The young man's handsome eyebrows did not have any mood swings.

The seriousness on Hu Che's face finally changed slightly, he withdrew his coercion, stood up and walked up to him, and reached out to pat the young man's thin shoulder.

There was a bit of emotion at the bottom of his eyes, "Yes, yes, it's really the eldest brother's heir, your face and that forbearance are exactly the same as when he was back......"

Hu Che and the father of the original slave, that is, the wolf king Wolf Xiao, who single-handedly founded the Moon Wolf King City, were brothers who were born and died, and they had a deep friendship.

Twenty years ago, after Wolf Howl was murdered by traitors, Hu Che was similarly disheartened, left the Western Plateau, and came to the City of Ten Thousand Beasts, where he eventually became the lord of the city.

He never expected that he would meet the son left by Wolf Howling in his lifetime.

Look at the current slaves.

Hu Che seemed to remember the wolf howl back then, but the father and son, one was the high-spirited noble wolf king, and the other was a poor orphan who had endured for many years...... Slave.

Hu Che's gaze fell on the not-so-deep slave mark on his left eye.

secretly sighed that this son must have had a hard time when he was hunted down and killed.

"I noticed you when you went to the city half a month ago." Hu Che looked at him and said, "What's your name?" ”

"Rin."

The original slave said lightly.

Naturally, the original slave will not be his real name, this is the slave name given to him by the orcs of the tribe who picked him up back then in order to sell him cheaply.

He had lived for more than ten years with this lowly slave name, but he would never forget his true name.

Hu Che, "What do you want me to help you with this time?" ”

The original slave looked up at him, his eyes moving slightly.

Then I heard him sigh again and said, "Although I am like a brother and sister to your father, we were born and died back then, and our friendship is very comparable. ”

"The eldest brother was so brave and fearless back then, but he was killed by the villain, which also makes me deeply saddened, and I hope to find the truth about his tragic death."

"You came to the City of Ten Thousand Beasts to look for me, I can roughly guess what you want to do......"

Hu Che looked at the expressionless slave and shook his head, "If you want to use my power to investigate the real cause of your father's death and take revenge on your old enemy, I should be supported." ”

His voice paused, but his face was full of embarrassment, "But now that I'm old, I may not be able to help you much." ”

These two sentences are a little prevaricating.

Hu Che left the Moon Wolf King City and came to this wild place, with the original intention of avoiding the wars and battles under the power struggle.

He also didn't want the City of Ten Thousand Beasts, which he had single-handedly supported, to fall victim to the change of power.

The original slave didn't have much expression on his face, and he knew it.

No one is willing to help him unless he can give enough benefits to the other person - he understood this truth at a very young age.

Naturally, he didn't expect Hu Che to really help, but he wanted to borrow something to use.
