Chapter 49: Temptation

-------

Sunset Mountains, peaks somewhere.

When Bai Yingying heard Xiao Mingcheng's words, her face changed suddenly. She stared at Xiao Mingcheng for a long time before speaking again.

"If you hadn't taken me captive, what would have happened to them?" The corners of Bai Yingying's lips rose, as if she was smiling, but there was no smile in her eyes.

Xiao Mingcheng raised his eyebrows, "Angry?" ”

Bai Yingying tugged at the corners of her lips, "Those are all my clansmen, of course my heart hurts." How can you, a wandering orc, understand clan kinship? ”

"You're looking for !! death"

Xiao Mingcheng was furious when he heard this, and reached out to choke Bai Yingying's neck tightly.

Bai Yingying didn't struggle, didn't resist, just let him pinch his neck, and it became more and more difficult to breathe...

It looks like he's begging for death.

Before she was about to lose consciousness, Xiao Mingcheng finally withdrew his hand.

Xiao Mingcheng's expression was complicated, "Bai Yingying, in order to survive, you were able to change the law to please me." How dare you contradict me now? ”

Bai Yingying lowered her head and coughed violently, the pain in her neck did not decrease, and even her abdomen began to ache faintly, but she knew that she had made the right bet.

Xiao Mingcheng seemed to know her a little. knew that she was pretending to be well-behaved during this time, and this time it was just to test her.

If she is indifferent to her own people, it will arouse Xiao Mingcheng's vigilance. Only by making a fuss like this can the other party completely believe that she is just a female with an interesting but bottom line.

And, what Xiao Mingcheng said just now, as a test of her, may not be true, at least not fully believed.

Really.

Xiao Mingcheng laughed lowly: "Don't worry." Your patriarch is quite clever, and he led people away in advance, leaving only some fools who refused to leave, and fell into the hands of the Stray Beast Alliance, and all but the females were slaughtered. ”

He also knew that Bai Yingying's beast husband also died, plus the first beast husband who died early, there was only one nominal beast husband left. He didn't want to be exposed, so he didn't take action to solve it.

But he didn't plan to tell Bai Yingying about this.

Xiao Mingcheng looked at Bai Yingying's expression and relaxed obviously, but his tone became cold: "A weak tribe has given birth to a rare treasure like yours by great luck, and they don't hurry up to find a super tribe to join in order to seek shelter before the news leaks." Instead, it was trumpeted. It's really an act of looking for death..."

That's why the patriarch was so eager to migrate.

He was carried away by his reputation and only came to his senses later. But by that time, it was too late to regret it, and I had to find a way to remedy it.

However, some people believe that winter is approaching and that no more orcs will come from the mountains and rivers. I felt that it would not be too late to leave at the beginning of spring next year, so I asked the patriarch to send someone to pick them up next year, so I stayed for the time being.

But he didn't expect that winter would not be able to stop those wandering beast alliances who live in groups and have no fixed place and have a crazy temperament.

Bai Yingying knew that the patriarch would definitely take away the cubs she gave birth to, and the little worry in her heart disappeared completely.

She was silent and looked up at Xiao Mingcheng, with just the right hint of hatred in her eyes: "What is the Stray Beast Alliance?" ”

Xiao Mingcheng curled the corners of his lips with a disdainful expression: "A group of fools formed by a group of robbers." There are wandering beast alliances in every region on the orc continent, and most of them make a living by raiding. They have no fixed residence, and it is difficult for the super tribe to send people to exterminate them. ”

"You..." Bai Yingying looked at him hesitantly, without directly saying Xiao Mingcheng's identity.

"Look what I do." Xiao Mingcheng rolled his eyes impatiently: "I broke away from the tribe in order to live a wanton and chic life." It's not like these weak fools, they all came out, and they still have to huddle together to keep warm. ”

Bai Yingying knew that it was not so simple.

After all, she knew that the red-gifted orcs had a high status in the tribe and generally did whatever they wanted.

She saw that Xiao Ming was not very old, and it stands to reason that he should be the darling of the tribe, how could she have a sense of restraint?

"Hmm. It turns out that you yearn for freedom. ”

Bai Yingying looked up with a little face, and there were stars in her eyes, "I had a very bad life in the tribe before I became an adult, and I once wanted to leave. But I'm just a little female, and I don't have the skills to live outside... and killed..."

She stopped talking, but didn't continue.

Bai Yingying knew that Xiao Mingcheng must have understood her, but she still didn't know how detailed it was.

Her appearance is also for temptation.

"That's just right. I have what it takes. Xiao Mingcheng couldn't hold back his smugness, reached out and rubbed her head: "I can feed you and our cubs, I can afford to raise as many as you have." ”

His strength was a little heavy, and his white hair immediately became scattered.

But Bai Yingying looked at Xiao Mingcheng's expression, and also understood that Xiao Mingcheng did know Lin Xia, and also knew that they had lived outside for nearly a month.

Bai Yingying hid her emotions, glanced at him with disgust, and muttered, "If it weren't for the safety of the clansmen, I wouldn't want to be with you." ”

She thinks that Xiao Mingcheng tempted her this time because she was pregnant and wanted to live a good life with her in the future.

She has passed the test, so Xiao Mingchengcai's attitude has changed greatly, and he has talked so much to her.

Bai Yingying took the opportunity to continue to test his bottom line.

Sure enough.

Xiao Mingcheng didn't lose his temper when he heard this, but laughed: "Ying'er has to be obedient, there is no difference between here and in the tribe." If you behave well, I'll give you freedom. ”

"Hmph. You were so fierce before..."Bai Yingying's aggrieved mouth was deflated, and her tears couldn't fall.

Although Xiao Mingcheng didn't take the initiative to coax, there was a smile in her eyes.

....

Since this time.

Although Xiao Mingcheng still locked Bai Yingying up, his attitude towards Bai Yingying was much better.

If Bai Yingying was his captive X slave before, then now he is his recognized companion.

But Xiao Mingcheng has been busy lately.

Busy storing food for the winter, but as soon as he leaves the cave, he will lock Bai Yingying up.

It is called to protect her from being taken by other wild beasts.

Bai Yingying didn't care. After winter officially came, she didn't think about running away again.

Winters are bitterly cold, especially in the mountains. It's still early winter, and she can't stand it, where else can she run? I can only endure the winter for the time being.

Xiao Mingcheng knew that she would be cold, so he brought a large number of animal skins to keep her warm.

When making jerky at the door, she will also be let out to bask in the sun.

At noon that day, the warm sun was slowing.

Bai Yingying basked in the sun at the entrance of the cave, watching Xiao Mingcheng get salt from somewhere and pickle food for the winter.

There were many bushes near the entrance of the cave, which had long since withered, and there were many dead branches nearby, which were good firewood.

Bai Yingying's heart moved, and she said coquettishly: "Mingcheng, can I pick up some dry firewood next to me?" ”
