Chapter 38 Heavy Rain

The back of Tyson as he ventured down the cliff in the rain reflected in the hearts of the orcs present.

Si Yan bit her lip and turned around.

As a thin female, Si Yan was extremely determined: "I believe Nan Mo will be fine."

"We have to believe in Tyson. Tyson will definitely bring Nanmo back."

As long as she didn't see Nan Mo's body, Si Yan believed that Nan Mo must still be alive.

 The three Zaizai were washed away by the rain and looked at Si Yan's thin and determined figure in silence.

Back in the cave, Xiqing and Beiji sat by the fire to warm themselves up, while Dongchi also sat in the corner and watched them.

The firelight illuminated Si Yan’s face.

There was no sadness on Si Yan's face, only the firm belief that Nan Mo was still alive.

 Si Yan’s determination gave the Zaizai the spiritual strength. Subtly, the Zaizai also believed that Nan Mo was still alive.

 They are waiting for Tyson to bring Nan Mo back.

Si Yan fiddled with the fire for a long time, and finally thought of a question. She asked softly: "What is the guardian beast?"

"It's not something bad for you." Dong Chi said coldly as always.

Si Yan was silent.

Xiqing raised her head to Si Yan and explained, "Mother, the guardian beast is a one-way contract."

Si Yan lowered her head and asked Xiqing, "What is a one-way contract?"

“Some males who have been rejected by females are willing to protect and protect females…”

Xiqing didn’t want to speak too highly of Tyson, so he interrupted these descriptions and continued, “They will take the initiative to unilaterally become the female’s guardian beast and protect the female.”

 After saying that, Xiqing added: "Mom, we don't have an adult male in our family, so it would be good to have another guardian beast."

The world of beasts is full of dangers. Their four cubs can only reach the strength of Gray Crystal at most. It can be said that the whole family has women and children who are sick and disabled. If it were not for the protection of the village, they would have finished playing.

 They don’t want their mothers to have many males, but the guardian beasts don’t resist.

  But I can’t say I like it.

Si Yan's expression was solemn, and she asked: "Does it mean working as a bodyguard? Do I have to pay him? How much do I pay him every month?"

Beiji asked: "Mom, I'm working as a bodyguard. What are the bodyguards?"

Xiqing said: "You don't need to pay. He will protect you voluntarily, and he will also hunt, give you food and clothes, and protect you for the rest of his life."

“…” Si Yan completely realized something was wrong this time.

 Hunting, giving food and clothes to the female, and protecting the female throughout her life.

Isn’t that the role of a husband in the human world?

She stood up suddenly and said, "I already have a beast husband, and I won't want another beast husband."

Si Yan said: "I want to make it clear to Tyson!"

 An unclear relationship is the most hurtful. Tyson is a good man and she doesn’t want to hurt him.

Xiqing quickly grabbed her. Xiqing’s little face was tender and tender. He said softly and cutely: “Mother, the guardian beast and the beastman are still different.”

Bei Ji helped explain: "Mother, beast husbands can have babies with females. They have the right to mate. Guardian beasts do not."

 “…” Si Yan sat down.

 In her previous life, she was a little warrior, and there was an iron law in her army.

 —You can find your own partner, or you can assign a partner to your team. But you only have one partner in your life, be loyal to your partner.

Even though Si Yan has not met her partner yet, she can still be regarded as her assigned partner.

 If you can’t get along well, you can divorce.

 But the iron rule is that you have only one partner in your life. Then she will never have another partner in this life.

 In fact, neither the monogamy education she had received since she was a child nor the iron-blooded rule in the army allowed Si Yan to accept a second partner when she already had a partner.

The guardian beast will protect her all its life, hunt for her all its life, and provide her with food and clothing, but it can only become a marginal guardian beast.

 It’s somewhat unfair to Tyson.

If Tyson just follows her, it will be just like she followed her commander and her brother in the previous life. It's not a big problem.

As long as Tyson has no other ideas.

Si Yan held her head.

 “You still have to make it clear to him.”

 Xiqing and Beiji were silent.

 After the guardianship contract is concluded, it has similar constraints to a certain extent as the partner contract. For example, if the female dies, or the female forcibly terminates the contract, they will all be harmed.

Just like Xiong Rou's partner, one of the reasons the village determined for Xiong Rou's death was that half of Xiong Rou's beastmen died at the same time.

 This is not fair to the male, but this is the price of seeking offspring.

 …

 The rain is getting heavier and heavier, with almost no sign of stopping.

 This also completely blocked Si Yan from continuing to search for Nan Mo.

Tyson went to look for Nanmo, and she still had three cubs to take care of.

Looking at the heavy rain and the small river in front of the cave that had swelled into a big river, Si Yan felt panicked for no reason.

 “Is it the rainy season?” Si Yan asked the cubs in the cave.

 The cubs shook their heads.

“Mother, it’s not the rainy season yet.”

This rain is a bit unusual.

 “After heavy rain, the weather often gets hotter.” Si Yan murmured. "The rain is so heavy that it's almost reaching the cave."

Xiqing and Beiji followed Si Yan and watched in front of the cave. It was raining heavily and the visibility was less than a few meters, so they couldn't see anything clearly.

Si Yan said: "I went to the vegetable field to collect all the vegetables that can be harvested. You bring the seeds and salt from home, and we are ready to go up the mountain!"

 “Okay, mother.” Xiqing said.

 Si Yan rushed into the rain curtain.

The space is 0.5 cubic meters larger, which is already a lot bigger. Si Yan stuffed the fruits and vegetables from the field into the space, and at the same time, she dug a big log by accident, collected the rainwater, and then stored it in her own space.

Si Yan’s idea at this time was very simple. The river water after a heavy rain was not drinkable. She had to store rainwater from the sky for drinking.

She also didn’t expect that this large bucket of water would save their lives when the Fiery Day arrived.

 The rain was pouring, and no one could see what she was doing. She put things into the space, and she did it all silently.

  When we rushed back to the cave, the rainwater had already reached the level of the cave.

The three little cubs raised their little heads and looked at her. Even Dong Chi, who had always been at odds with her, Si Yan could see behind his contempt and disdain, his natural dependence on his mother.

“We have collected everything, are we leaving now?” Xiqing asked.

Si Yan took it from Xiqing and held it high, fearing that the salt would melt into the water, so she put it directly into the corner of the space.

"immediately."

Si Yan pulled down the straw curtains and straw mats at home, put them on the heads of Xiqing and Beiji, also covered Dongchi's head, and then squatted in front of Dongchi.

 “Come up.”

Dong Chi paused for a few seconds, looking at Si Yan's slender back.

 “Come up!” Si Yan repeated.

 After a long time, Si Yan felt that thin little body slowly climbing up.

His one good arm hesitantly wrapped around Si Yan's neck, and then suddenly tightened it.

Dong Chi lowered his head and pressed it against the back of her head, feeling dull.

“Mother.” Xiqing and Beiji raised their heads and looked at Si Yan.

Si Yan held Dong Chi with one hand and Bei Ji with the other. Bei Ji held Xiqing, and Xiqing held a small bucket of things that needed to be taken away.

"let's go."

Hush into the rain, Si Yan moved up the mountain with her three cubs.

The cold rain beat down on this family of four, but the cubs who were washed by the rain felt more at ease than ever before.

 It’s like I’m not afraid if the sky is falling.

 “Xiqing, hurry up!”

The rain was too heavy, and the mountain water washed down. Xiqing's big tail flicked, and it was wrapped around the trees and fixed.

Then Xiqing smiled at Si Yan. The flamboyant smile revealed his expectation of being praised by Si Yan.

Si Yanteng didn't want to pat him on the head, so she smiled and praised: "Xiqing is awesome."
