Traveling through the world of beasts: I lead the system to build an empire

The females were chatting.

The males in the small room next door naturally couldn't sit still either.

They were busy weaving bamboo baskets and chatting with the males they were familiar with.

The topic is nothing more than which female is in heat and which male she wants to give birth to a baby for.

If a male is favored by his own female, he will be the envy of all the orcs.

Occasionally there would be a few sentences saying that a certain male is good at fighting, a certain male is good at making skirts, a certain male earns a lot of work points, a certain male cooks delicious food, etc.

The males have good hearing, and even when they are chatting, their attention is on the females. So the conversation between the three of them naturally falls into the ears of the males.

Especially what Du Xian said made Xiyi blush.

Fortunately, as soon as Xiyi joined the tribe, he was sent to work in Qingquan River. Except for those otters, he was not very familiar with the males in the tribe.

In addition, not all males can accept the existence of Xiyi, a stray animal, and they will not be very enthusiastic about him, but just give him a pass on the surface.

Now no one teased him, and Xiyi secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

It seems that being unpopular has its benefits.

Gui Bang, who listened carefully to the words of his female, rolled his eyes and decided to build a good relationship with Xiyi.

If one of Xiyi's friends is liked by Duxian, he can also help to bring them together.

Even if it doesn't work, just because Xiyi's female has a good relationship with Duxian, he will also build a good relationship with Xiyi.

Gui Bang knew that he was the weakest in the family, and now he was disabled, so he could only try his best to please Du Xian.

"Xiyi, right?" Gui Bang put his arm around Xiyi's shoulders in a familiar manner.

The approach of the strange aura almost made Xiyi hit it subconsciously, but fortunately he controlled himself in time.

He was an orc who joined later and was a stray orc. If he hurt the orcs in public, he would definitely die.

It doesn't matter if he dies, Xiaoxiao will be so sad.

Xiyi was a little scared, and after taking a breath, he asked timidly, "Is there something wrong?"

"Brother, do you really not have any other friends?" Gui Bang asked expectantly.

Xiyi was completely confused.

No.

I'm a stray beast!

Look at my scales, my sharp claws, and my ugly face.

Isn't that obvious enough?

What the hell are you and your female doing?!

"I do know quite a few people, but there is only one person I am familiar with." Xiyi told the truth.

"Really?!" Gui Bang looked surprised.

Xiyi nodded obediently.

"They are all wandering beastmen such as crocodiles, snakes, and lizards. Because they are too timid and do not fit in with others, they live together."

"Then why don't you live with them?" It's easy to guess that Xiyi lives alone in the wild, otherwise he wouldn't have picked up Xiaoxiao.

No orc from a small tribe dares to go to a place where stray beasts live.

"I like to wander around," Xi Yi paused, and felt that he had to be honest, "I think if we all live together, we will be too conspicuous. I'm afraid that a powerful orc will come and kill us."

Gui Bang: “…”

He was almost convinced by Xiyi's courage.

Gritting his teeth, he asked, "Don't you know any brave ones?"

Xi Yi shrank his neck and said hesitantly, "I, I don't dare."

Brave stray animals like to wander around and cause trouble.

Maybe they will even bully him.

Gui Bang was convinced.

The females in his family don't like men who are too timid, so it seems there is no hope.

But Gui Bang is never a person who gives up easily. Maybe if he picks the tallest one among the short ones, he can really find one?

"Then do you know where they are? Are they far from the Tiger Tribe?"

"Yes," Xi Yi nodded, "near the northern mountains, close to the northern continent."

In other words, you'll get there just by crossing the mountains.

It would take at least half a month for the land orcs, but for the tiger tribe, it would only take seven hours.

"Can that..."

Just as he was about to say that he wanted them to join the Tiger Tribe, Gui Bang almost shut his mouth.

He didn't think there was anything wrong with stray beasts.

In fact, it’s not just him. All the males in Duxian’s family don’t mind stray animals.

Because they once were.

Recalling the time when Gui Bang first met Du Xian.

At that time, he had just been driven out of the tribe and became a stray animal, and he met that brave little female in the wild.

A ferocious black panther orc followed her.

When the little female saw him, she did not feel disgusted or afraid. Instead, she ran to him excitedly and spoke to him with a big smile on her face.

"Your pink fur is so pretty."

The little female has a beautiful smile.

Standing in the sun, his whole body is glowing with a holy light.

Thinking back to the scene now, Gui Bang feels like he is dreaming.

he thinks.

This must be a gift from the Beast God, allowing him to meet such a unique female like Du Xian.

Therefore, Gui Bang understood best that not all stray beasts are evil, and not all tribal beastmen are kind.

Many stray animals themselves don’t want to be stray animals.

For example, he was born different.

For example, those snake orcs, lizard orcs, crocodile orcs...

Most stray animals are forced to become stray animals, and some orcs are even labeled as stray animals when they are born.

And because they all have inherited memories from their parents, the images of their parents doing bad things keep lingering in their minds.

Many kind-hearted stray animals have suffered because of this.

Some of them have become self-degrading and started doing the same things as their parents.

Some of them huddled quietly in a corner, atonement for the mistakes made by their parents and pray for forgiveness from the Beast God.

But Gui Bang also knew.

He could understand, but the tribal orcs couldn't.

All tribal orcs have been slaughtered by stray orcs, and Guibang has no right to ask any tribal orc to accept stray orcs.

This is unfair to the Horde orcs.

Moreover, the situation of the Tiger Tribe is special, and they cannot let people of unknown origin in without authorization.

Gui Bang was silent.

Xiyi also lowered his head.

"Xi Yi."

Ling Han, who had been standing silently by the window, admiring the rain outside, suddenly spoke.

The sound was not loud, but it was enough for Xiyi to hear clearly.

Xi Yi knew that it was Ling Han's nod that allowed him to enter the Tiger Tribe, and he always kept this favor in his heart.

When he heard Ling Han calling him, he immediately came forward and stood beside Ling Han.

When Xi Yi got closer, he realized that Ling Han, whom he thought was looking at the scenery, was now facing the window with a frown on his face.

Like worrying about something.

Xi Yi followed Ling Han's line of sight.

The window faces south.

Outside are two neat rows of houses and a wide street in the middle. The view can pass through the buildings unobstructed and look towards the Qingquan River in the south.

It has been raining heavily for nearly a month. The water level of Qingquan River has risen a lot, and the water is fast and turbid.

Xi Yi, who had spent a hot season digging mud at the bottom of the Qingquan River, knew best that even if the river level rose another meter, it would still be far from flooding.

The river cannot overflow.

After this period of management and deep excavation, the Qingquan River, which was already very deep, has reached a terrifying depth.

Xi Yi became even more confused.

What exactly is Ling Han worried about?

"At the speed at which the tribe is building the city wall right now, we'll have to wait at least another two years to get to the south bank of the Qingquan River."

Ling Han looked out the window and said something without any context.

Xiyi was a little confused.

This is something that all the orcs know.

More than four hundred days a year.

Excluding the rainy season and the cold season, the time available to build the city wall would not exceed 250 days.

The current construction speed is only the speed of building walls. As various facilities are improved in the later stage, this speed will inevitably slow down.

Therefore, it will take at least two years to complete the city wall on the north side of Qingquan River.

This is public information.

"In such a river, can you swim to the south bank?" Ling Han asked again, looking at the river rolling eastward.

The impact of the river water is extremely strong. If orcs who are not good at swimming enter it, they will only be washed away and drowned.

Xiyi still didn't understand, so he answered obediently, "It's a little difficult, but you can give it a try."

After he said this, Ling Han was silent for a long time, then said something meaningful.

"If you can, so can others."

Xi Yi suddenly broke out in a cold sweat.
