Chapter 48: It’s okay not to have a parent beast

Chapter 48 It’s okay not to have a father beast

Perhaps it’s because disasters are followed by good fortune. When the water bucket in Si Yan’s space bottomed out, they discovered a small lake that had not yet dried up.

The three thirsty cubs were rolling around in the lake. Si Yan also filled her bucket again, then found wood, cut a few more small buckets and stuffed them into the space.

After that, Dong Chi blushed slightly and said to Si Yan with obvious shyness: "Bad female... I want this."

 He pointed at the animal skin skirts of Xiqing and Beiji.

Si Yan suppressed a smile and said, "Okay, you wait for mother to hunt a long-eared beast."

Dongchi pointed to the side again and saw two long-eared beasts lying at the foot of the big tree next to them. "There, done."

 The furs of the two long-eared beasts are not very complete, but there is no problem in making two cubs' fur skirts.

Si Yan took the long-eared beast skin that Dong Chi had secretly tanned and glanced at Dong Chi secretly. She saw that the cub was already red to the base of its ears.

Si Yan couldn't help but smile, and hid her expression from Dong Chi.

She used Dong Chi’s long hair to make two sets of animal skin skirts, and used two animal teeth to make buttons. One was carved with the character “东” and the other was carved with the character “南”.

Dong Chi eagerly flipped through the two sets of animal skin skirts and asked, "Which one is mine?"

Si Yan smiled and said, "Call me mother and I will tell you."

“Bad female, ugly female, smelly female…”

“Stop, stop, stop.” Si Yan said immediately, “I’ll accept this one for you.”

Dong Chi immediately put on his own animal skin skirt. Si Yan patiently turned over the animal tooth buckle and said to him: "This character is the character "东"."

Dong Chi stared at the animal tooth button, his eyes brightened slightly, and the corners of his lips curled up slightly.

Si Yan looked at Nan Mo's animal skin skirt and paused for a while.

She has been forced to walk along this way, and until now, she has not chosen to stop and look for Nan Mo.

She brought her three cubs with her, and there was no guarantee that they could survive the blazing day. If she went back to look for Nan Mo at this time, the entire family of five would most likely die.

 Would he blame her for being cruel?

Si Yan suddenly laughed at herself.

 It’s strange, I should be.

Thinking of this, she expressionlessly put the set given to Nan Mo into the space.

They happily ate one of the two long-eared beasts Dong Chi hunted, and Si Yan stuffed the other one into the space after processing it.

Si Yan lit a bonfire, which dispersed the gloom.

Bei Ji didn't know when he was next to Si Yan, and he pushed her gently.

Si Yan came back to her senses and looked at the young Zai Zai.

Bei Ji is a young boy with an exquisite soul. He pinched Si Yan's animal skin skirt and whispered: "Mother, if second brother knew that you asked the only male in our family to find him, he would definitely not blame you."

 He pursed his lips. "I promise, he won't blame you."

How can the cubs in the beast world live so easily? When the orcs migrate on the Disaster Day, they never stop for the fallen cubs.

 It’s a blessing to be alive, but it’s fate to be unable to survive.

 His mother has asked the only male in the family to find his second brother.

Mother is just a female, and she has to take care of the three of them. After doing this, he felt that his mother had done a good enough job.

 But he is too weak. If only he were stronger, he could protect his mother.

Si Yan looked at Bei Ji steadily and suddenly smiled.

Bei Ji, this little guy, is really considerate. And the more she lived, the more she returned. He actually made the young cub worry about him.

 …

 This is the first pleasant night the boys have spent since leaving the Yanxiang tribe.

“Mom, can I sleep next to you?” Xiao Beiji opened his cute big eyes and nuzzled in her direction.

Si Yan couldn't stand his offensive at all and compromised without hesitation.

"come over."

The clean Bei Ji immediately leaned against Si Yan and lay down on the temporary hay mat.

As Bei Ji successfully lay down, the other two Zai Zai quietly approached and lay down next to Si Yan.

Si Yan hugged her cub and looked at the stars in the sky, feeling a moment of tranquility in the dangerous world of beasts.

“I didn’t expect that there would be a red crystal orc next to Lang Xin,” Si Yan said.

Dong Chi said: "It's just a red crystal, nothing special."

Si Yan pinched Dong Chi’s face and said, “Your tone is really quite serious.”

Dongchi immediately struggled to get rid of her hand: "Bad female, I warn you not to touch her!"

Xiqing said: "Actually, most of the red crystal orcs are not married. When Lang You was a green crystal, he became Lang Xin's partner. After becoming his partner, he advanced. Now he is probably regretting it."

 “Why?” Si Yan asked curiously.

Xiqingdao: "Because males and females form a couple, they only get the possible breeding rights. But for this possible breeding rights, they paid too high a price."

Bei Ji also got up and looked at Si Yan and said, "Mother, Bei Ji will not marry in the future."

 Xiqing: “Me too.”

Dong Chi snorted lightly and said nothing.

"What do you mean? I don't understand." Si Yan said.

Xiqing explained: "Low-level orcs, like green crystal, gray crystal, or crystalless males, if they want to survive in the beast world, they must rely on their family, that is, the female. So their only choice is to form a couple. Becoming a male slave to a female, gaining protection through cuddles, and a slight chance of breeding.”

"But high-level orcs, like Red Crystal and above. They yearn for greater strength and a broader sky, and are often unwilling to be restrained by females. So they will not take the initiative to show favor to females. But this type of males, It’s what the females fight for.”

Si Yan asked curiously: "Being fought over by females?"

Bei Ji nodded and said seriously: "Well, females will find ways to pair up with them. After all, females rely on acquiring males to gain strength."

Although Si Yan did not accept the behavior of these females, she still found this method particularly interesting.

“For example, if a powerful amethyst male is hiding, does he have to hide to prevent his virginity from being taken away?” Si Yan thought a lot.

 “That’s pretty much it.”

Dongchi said, "If you accidentally get paired up, you will be controlled by the female.

However, even if a powerful male becomes one of the female beastmen, he will not fare too badly. After all, other males cannot beat him.

 So the most powerful male will often become the dominant male of the female. Has the most mating and breeding rights. "

"Zhengxiong???" Si Yan thought about it for a few times before she roughly understood what Zhengxiong meant.

Bei Ji said categorically: "I don't want to get married anyway. There is no point in getting married. I want to become strong and protect my mother in the future!"

“Don’t talk nonsense, Xiao Beiji is as beautiful as an angel. In the future, you will meet a female who will treat you wholeheartedly.”

Bei Ji's little face wrinkled up: "This is impossible. It's better to rely on myself than to rely on females. I still want to work hard to practice and become an amethyst ore or gold crystal orc."

Mother, Bei Ji does not want any offspring. If you give Bei Ji more brothers, Bei Ji can raise them. With his younger brother, Bei Ji is no longer the youngest! "

　　　…”

"What kind of male will our father be? Mother, can you tell us about our father?" Bei Ji said expectantly.

Si Yan shook her head awkwardly: "I don't remember."

“Then he must be a bad male.” Bei Ji lay down and leaned against Si Yan in frustration.

"Otherwise, my mother would not forget him. He has never come to us to protect us."

Dong Chi raised his palms and felt the power contained in his body: "It's okay if you don't want the father beast."

 Xiqing nodded: "We can become stronger."

In the days leading up to the Fiery Day, the temperature difference between day and night becomes huge. The temperature during the day may be in the 50s or 60s, while the temperature at night is below 10 degrees.

The three Zaizai clung to Si Yan for warmth. This was the most comfortable and warm night in recent days.

 The next morning, the children, one and three, started on the road again.

After walking on the hot road for about seven or eight days, the water and food in Si Yan’s space bottomed out again.

 The situation has become serious again.

 “Isn’t it already the arrival of the blazing day?” The high temperature of 40 to 50 degrees Celsius on the body made Si Yan particularly uncomfortable. In addition to Si Yan, the three snake orc cubs were also particularly uncomfortable.

Snakes are afraid of heat, especially hot weather. The first one who cannot bear this weather is Bei Ji.

"Mother...I...I can't hold it any longer." Bei Ji's whole body felt hot due to the hot weather, "I can't reach Anri Lake."

“Bei Ji, get on my back.” Si Yan squatted down.

 “Mother is also tired, I won’t come...”

Without saying a word, Si Yan carried Bei Ji on her back.

 “As agreed, no one can be missing.”
