Chapter 228: Barter Treasure House
"Boss, I don't understand. You clearly can transform, why didn't you tell the Goddess?
I heard from my mother that the goddess is getting very anxious because you haven't transformed yet.
Because of your transformation, he has been asking the females in the tribe who have cubs about their transformations."
The fox cub Wuxiang looked at his boss who was trying to keep a straight face but still couldn't hide his immaturity. He felt curious and confused.
It was only after Bai Qing took the initiative to transform that they realized that he had been able to transform for a long time. However, for some reason, the eldest brother did not want his mother to know about this.
Upon hearing this, Bai Qing glanced at Wuxiang and said with a somewhat unhappy tone, "Do you think I don't want to?"
But he didn't dare show his pretty face in front of his mother. He would feel embarrassed even if his two younger sisters saw him.
Thinking of my grandfather and father, they both have a dark complexion, and the lines on their bodies that are inadvertently revealed, at first glance, I can feel the strength under their muscles.
It would be fine if she wasn't as white as me and my two younger sisters.
With his little hands, arms and legs, if he hadn't seen that his eyes and eyebrows looked like his father's, he would have almost thought that he was not his father's biological child.
Although his mother and two sisters were the most beautiful orcs in his eyes, he was a male cub, so how could he just focus on their looks?
If a female cub is good-looking, she will be pursued by many male cubs in the tribe, and the tribe will pay attention to her.
If a male cub wants to stand out among the cubs, it is definitely not enough to be good-looking. Because of the cruel natural selection of survival of the fittest, there is no ugly male cub. Therefore, if you want to stand out from the cubs, strength is the most important thing.
Without strength, the tribe would not notice him, and naturally there would be no question of paying attention to him and pouring resources into him.
Cheng Ran, the identity of the young master's cub has brought Bai Qing a lot of attention, but if he does not have enough strength to give other cubs the proper deterrent effect, then sooner or later, the resources and conveniences brought to him by the identity of the young master's cub will become less and less.
Bai Qing is still young and doesn't realize these deep-seated problems.
But he didn't consider these things now, and still instinctively pursued strength. Doesn't this just show that the education given to him by Bai Lan and others has taken effect, and has subtly made him choose the right path for himself?
It was this road that, as he groped his way along, there were always some small twists and turns.
Wuxiang blinked, stared at Bai Qing, and asked, "Boss? Why?"
Bai Qing was silent for two seconds. "My grandfather said that after I transform, I will definitely be the strongest male cub in the White Tiger Tribe. Look at me like this, do I look like it?"
Doesn't he want to lose face?
Bai Qing took the adult's words seriously, but the other cubs present were not very old, and they didn't know which of the adult's words was true and which was false.
But when they heard Bai Qing's words, they all looked at him at the same time, and then shook their heads tacitly.
Bai Qing: ...
Can't you just tell him some lies to comfort him?
But, alas, never mind.
None of this matters. Bai Qing has already heard about Dou Tang from his father.
The training of the cubs in Doutang will not be so strict at the beginning, because the cubs are still developing, so the training of the cubs generally consists of two parts.
One is to arrange tasks for the cubs to run in groups to various places in the tribe. The main purpose of this arrangement is to let the cubs understand their own tribe and let the tribe deepen its understanding of them.
The second is to eat more meat, especially meat from exotic beasts. The Doutang will distribute various low-level and high-level exotic beast meats every day, and the meat will be distributed to the cubs based on the extent to which they complete their tasks.
On the one hand, this arrangement encourages the cubs to complete their tasks and continuously optimizes the living environment for cubs with room for improvement. On the other hand, it is also intended to ensure that the cubs can maintain basic survival in the tribe if they are not properly cared for by their families.
This is the case with Li, but this arrangement is not without loopholes.
Of course, Bai Qing didn't hear Li's complaints, so his attention wouldn't be focused on that.
After he learned from his father about the training content of the Doutang for the cubs, he couldn't wait to pull his younger brothers to start working hard according to the Doutang's arrangements.
So Bai Qing assigned tasks to his younger brothers today.
"Wuxiang, you and Li go to Doutang to receive the mission. Feide and I will find a way to get weapons, Wusheng, you go get some food, Ayang, you know a lot of places, let's go to some places like the hilltops that are suitable for gathering.
Remember, try to avoid other pups and stay hidden."
The one-year-old cub was originally the youngest among the six cubs and should have been the weakest and most in need of protection.
However, Bai Qing, who was taught by his elders, showed his leadership ability early on.
Even with his current arrangements, an adult orc would find them full of loopholes and like the cubs playing house.
But nothing is achieved overnight. Bai Qing will become mature little by little through such immature steps.
……
Red Grass Valley.
As the dry season is halfway through, the major nomadic tribes gather here. This market, which was originally a spontaneous gathering of orcs and centered on currency transactions, has become even more lively.
Yu Hedu brought her three cubs here. There was never a shortage of good things at home, and she was busy all day, so this was her first time in the Red Grass Valley.
The two sisters Shushu and Chuchu held hands, with their mother and Mufei holding one hand each, protecting them in the center.
Following behind were Bai Qing, Afu, Yunxi, and Yu, a group of orcs.
There were many of them and they were well dressed, so as soon as they arrived in Red Grass Valley, they were welcomed by various nomadic tribes.
"Mom, it's so lively here!"
In particular, the prosperity here seems to be no less than that of Baihu City. Different from the regular markets in the city, the wild market is full of surprises without order.
The three cubs walked along, and the sight was dazzling.
Then the orcs walked into a small but tall building, where a unique bartering activity was taking place.
It was only after Yu He came in that he discovered that there must be some kind of space magic array inside this wooden building.
The so-called barter is the buying and selling of pawned items.
Here, no matter what you want, as long as you can offer something of equal value, you can basically get it.
People like Bai Lan and Mu Fei used many yellow crystals to exchange for a lot of mermaid silk and other rare silk fabrics from here.
Yunxi and Yu used green crystals to buy the three cubs hidden weapons for protection - iron-made mechanical sleeve arrows, soft knives that could be wrapped around the wrists, and smoke bombs that could temporarily blind and deafen orcs.
Mu also used the crystal core to exchange for some precious herbs for the three cubs that could help them practice.
When the cubs first start practicing, some bumps and bruises are inevitable. In order to ensure that their physical fitness can keep up with the intensity of training, they are sometimes given medicinal baths made from herbs and exotic beast blood.
Seeing that they had prepared a lot of things for the cubs, Yu He also wanted to take out something in exchange to assist the cubs in their training.
