Chapter 132: Visiting the Market (5)
Ruan Tang found her children at the place where the slave orcs were sold.
"Mom, you're here. We've been waiting for you for a long time. Let me tell you, we've seen a few slave orcs and they're pretty good. Mom, can you come and take a look?" Luo Chen was particularly enthusiastic about this matter and was the most active.
"Mom, I miss you."
"I miss you too, Mom."
All the female cubs gathered around.
"My dears, you are all so well behaved. Mom misses you too. Come on, take me to see something you like." She originally thought that the children would be waiting anxiously, but unexpectedly, they were all so well behaved. Ruan Tang felt warm in her heart. She felt a sense of accomplishment every day because she could teach dozens of children to be obedient and sensible.
"Okay, mother, come quickly. I'll take you to see the one I chose. He's a rabbit orc. He's only 13 years old this year and hasn't awakened any special powers. But I see his eyes are very bright and there's no hatred in his eyes. He looks quite..." Luo Chen walked beside his mother, introducing what he had just learned about the slave orc.
"That's him, mother. Can you take a look?" Luo Chen took his mother to a cage and whispered to her.
Inside the cage was a thin boy who looked about 11 or 2 years old. His naked upper body was covered with scars of varying depths.
Luo Chen was right. Although this rabbit beastman was covered in wounds, there was still light in his eyes. Although he was locked in a short and narrow cage, he kept his upper body straight while kneeling. When he saw them coming, he looked over and did not speak, but observed.
Very good, first impressions are good. Ruan Tang did not answer her son immediately, but said to Ling Lingjiu in her mind: "Xiao Tongzi, it's time to open the business. Please help me find out this kid's background."
Linglingjiu came online in one second. Wen Qingyin sounded quite nice: [Received. Please give your little Jiujiu two minutes.]
Unfortunately, no matter how nice the voice is, it still has a servile sound, Ruan Tang complained.
"Hey! Host, how can you say that about your diligently working little system? How am I a lackey? I'm serving you wholeheartedly." Ling Lingjiu heard the host's thoughts and retorted.
Ruan Tang knew that her little system was a chatterbox and would never stop talking, so she didn't say much to it and urged it, "Get serious about your work. Everyone is waiting for my decision."
[OK, got it.]
Ling Ling Jiu said two minutes, and it meant two minutes. After a moment, it reported its results: [This young Rabbit Tribe boy is from the Northern Continent. During last year's warm season, he failed to turn in the annual animal hides and crystals he was supposed to hand over on time, and was captured by the Scarlet Snake Tribe. The strong males were drugged and taken to the Salt Mountain to do hard labor. The elderly who were unable to contribute to the tribe were killed, and all the females were brought back to the Scarlet Snake Tribe. The elderly females who could no longer reproduce were sent to Xiaoyao Cave, and the young females were distributed to the lower-ranking males in the tribe who couldn't find mates. Those like him who were young and unable to carry anything were sold to slave traders. He suffered greatly, but his will to survive was strong. He harbored hatred, as his entire family died resisting the Scarlet Snake Tribe's attacks. However, he had a clear distinction between love and hate, and he only hated the Scarlet Snake Tribe...]
After saying a lot, Ruan Tang had a certain understanding of this slave orc. He had no family, had a strong desire to survive, and did not see everyone as an enemy. These points were enough.
Ruan Tang said to Ling Lingjiu, "I understand. Take a rest. We'll need you later."
Ling Lingjiu has a positive attitude: [At your service at any time. 】
This superb Wen Qingyin coupled with the superb flattering tone almost made Ruan Tang laugh. She ignored Ling Lingjiu and coughed lightly, lowering her head to look at the children. She found that all the babies were looking up at her, waiting for her decision.
A smile spread across her face, and she softly said to the children, "You are wonderful, my dears. You have made a good choice. Then go ask this rabbit orc if he is willing to go home with us. If he is willing, then let Father Mo Bai negotiate with the slave trader."
"Great! Thank you, Mother." Luo Chen was the happiest one, because this was something he had spent a long time choosing. His vision was recognized by his Mother, and his already happy mood became even more confident.
Mother agreed and let them go and ask. The kids did not rush forward and ask at once, but Yihang and Luo Chen went to ask.
While they were chatting over there, Mo Xiaoqi said to his mother, "Mom, I just picked one too. He's an orc from the Pangolin tribe, only in his teens. He has special abilities, but his talent is average. His situation is similar to the one chosen by the other nine. Can you go take a look at him, Mom?"
Ruan Tang touched Mo Xiaoqi's furry head and nodded in agreement: "Of course, let your father handle this. Let's go over and take a look now."
"Yes! Thank you, mother. Come on, I'll take you there." Mo Xiaoqi skipped ahead and led the way. After a few steps, he saw that his third sister hadn't caught up, so he stopped and waited. When she came over, he smiled and said, "Third sister, you have to follow me closely, otherwise what will I do if I get lost?"
Yitian rolled her eyes. "Even if I get lost, you won't get lost, okay? You're jumping around, more active than anyone else, chatting here and there. If you don't know, you might think this is your home."
"Hahahaha, Brother Mo Qi is really awesome. I am ashamed of myself!" Chi Shiwu laughed exaggeratedly when he recalled how Brother Mo Qi was talking about business with such composure just now.
"Chi Shiwu, now you understand, there are always people better than you. Don't think you are so great. When you go out into the world, you will find out that there are many people who are better than us. Don't be so conceited that you look down on everyone." Boss Chi took the opportunity to teach his proud and arrogant younger brother a lesson.
"How could I? I don't look down on anyone, okay? Big sister, don't blame me. Mother is here. If you say that, I'll fall out of favor." Chi Shiwu said he would fall out of favor, but his voice and appearance were still arrogant. He turned to his mother and said with a smile, "Mother, you can't listen to slander. I'm a very good person and very polite to everyone."
"Walk carefully. If you block your mother, I will punish you." Chi Yuan flicked his baby's head with his finger.
"Ouch! Father, I know you don't like male cubs, but you shouldn't be so violent. Do you know how strong you are? You've made my head swollen. Look at that?"
He cried out in pain but still swam to the side, making way for his mother, and then pleaded for comfort in a wronged manner: "Mother, it hurts, please blow on it."
"Do you want me to blow it for you?" Ruan Tang smiled and was about to rub her son's head. Chi Yuan blocked her behind him and made a move to move forward with a half-smile in his voice.
"No need, I don't feel any pain anymore, hum!" Seeing that the situation was not good, Chi Shiwu swam away.
Ruan Tang was amused by Chi Shiwu's cowardly look and said to Chi Yuan, "Don't be so harsh on the children all the time. Be gentler. I saw that there was a bump on Little Shiwu's head."
Chi Yuan touched his nose. He felt that he didn't use much force. It was definitely because the boy was too weak. However, he nodded cooperatively and said, "Okay, I'll be gentler next time."
But she was thinking that she would have to work harder to train these little ones in the future. How could such weak ones be worthy of being her cubs!
The cage holding the pangolin beastman was not far from the rabbit beastman. Mo Xiaoqi stopped beside the pangolin beastman's cage and said to his mother, "Mom, this is it. Come and take a look."
Ruan Tang withdrew her gaze from her partner, looked at her son, and replied, "Here I am."
