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

Su Mo took the lead and stood at the front.

Behind him is the vibrant Tiger Tribe.

In front of us is a series of earth pits, which is where the deceased's belongings will be placed.

The mountains in the distance appear even more tranquil and solemn under the setting sun.

Farther away in the northern continent, the top of the snow-capped mountains, which are covered with snow all year round, are emitting layers of golden light.

Several eagles were circling on the top of the mountain. They could not be seen clearly due to the distance, but they seemed to be silently watching this place where life and death were taking place.

The trees swayed gently in the breeze, making a slight rustling sound, as if they were also expressing reluctance and longing.

Behind Su Mo stood the clan leader Mu Yang and the witch doctor Zhu Yue.

Now these two, who are absolutely dominant in any tribe, are standing behind her, waiting for her next instructions.

Su Mo nodded to Mu Yang, indicating that he should do as they had agreed.

She also brought a wooden box and handed it to Foo.

"Are you sure you want to put this in?"

Su Mo confirmed it one last time.

"I looked around the house and found that other than this, there was nothing in the house that belonged to Hu Pang."

Su Mo was silent.

Most males in the animal world live rough lives, including males in pairs, not to mention single males who are not in pairs.

They don't usually wear animal skin skirts, so they don't have the habit of collecting animal skins.

Many orcs are too lazy to even make animal skins to use as doors, or build grass nests for sleeping.

They all sleep directly on the ground.

When they built the cenotaph this time, many orcs couldn't find anything to put in the tomb.

Mu Yang had no choice but to ask the orcs to break off a piece of the wall of the stone house and put it in.

Therefore, many orcs’ wooden boxes only contain an irregular stone.

"It's good to put this in. This is Hu Pang's favorite. It will make him happy."

Meifu touched the knotted animal skin skirt with care one last time, then put it into the box with determination.

Watching the lid close slowly in front of his eyes, Mei Fu asked Su Mo.

"Do orcs really serve the Beast God after they die?"

"Sorry, I don't know." Su Mo replied.

"Then Hu Pang will come back to see me, right?"

Su Mo was silent again.

Mei Fu looked at Su Mo's sad expression, his eyes gradually turned red, and he slowly uttered two words.

"Thank you."

……

The wooden boxes filled with things were placed one by one into the dug pits.

As the orcs moved, small mounds of earth rose from the ground one after another, hiding the tall males deep underground.

Bunches of small yellow and white flowers were placed in front of the tombstone standing on the mound.

The tombstone in the front row, with the words "Hu Pang" engraved on it, has the most vigorous and powerful characters, and is also the deepest.

Just like the importance of Hu Pang to the Tiger Tribe, it is important and profound.

This is also one of the reasons why Su Mo chose "Pang" among many "pangs".

It's not just Erzai's expectations for his future.

Still strong, mentally strong, and unrivaled.

With her back to the crowd, Su Mo spoke slowly.

“We invite everyone here today to hold the first funeral of the Tiger Tribe. This is a ceremony to commemorate and bid farewell to those who are going to see the Beast God.

I know that this world is cruel. Countless orcs struggle every day, and orcs die every day.

This is the first funeral, but it will definitely not be the last.

I just hope that everyone can remember them, remember the heroes who died for the Horde.

What the tribe will face in its development is not a smooth road paved with flowers, but a long march full of thorns and obstacles. The heroes who fell on this road are worth remembering.

Come and see them when you think of them.”

Su Mo is a socially anxious person, but today she didn't know where she got the courage from to say these words in front of everyone.

She didn't expect anyone to sympathize with her.

It would be more accurate to say that Su Mo was speaking to herself rather than to the orcs.

As soon as she finished speaking, Su Mo, who had always been kneeling to heaven, earth, and her parents, couldn't help but kneel on the ground and bend down towards the mounds of earth.

Her action prompted the orcs to follow suit and kneel down as well.

"What are you doing?" Zhuyue's voice came from behind.

The sound was not loud, but all the orcs could hear it.

“I’m just honoring the dead.”

Su Mo replied.

Hearing this, the orcs present couldn't help but slow down their breathing and movements. At this moment, it seemed as if time had stopped.

The feeling of sadness gradually spread, and the orcs seemed to have suddenly found an outlet for their emotions.

They often talk about meeting the Beast God after they die, but no one really believes that they will really meet the Beast God after they die. They just regard it as a beautiful wish.

The orcs actually prefer that if they die, they will have nothing.

And Su Mo's words seemed to confirm this point.

After an orc dies, he will still exist in another form, but the living orcs cannot see it.

No one would doubt Su Mo's words.

That's a messenger of God.

Just as Su Mo was immersed in sadness, the system prompt sound, which always spoiled the mood, rang again.

[Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining the power of orc faith, reward points 200. ]

Su Mo: ...

For a moment, I really didn't know whether to cry or laugh.

Su Mo stood up with mixed feelings and turned around.

I was immersed in my own world just now and didn’t think anything of it, but now I’m suddenly facing these people and I feel a little nervous.

"It's over, everyone can go home."

The orcs also slowly stood up.

Those who died were all single orcs, and the only ones who felt sad for them were probably their good friends.

But what is even more tragic is that most of their companions were buried with them.

The orcs were generally saddened by the passing of the former chief who cared about his people.

So orcs also have feelings, they just don’t know how to express them.

As night fell, the orcs all dispersed.

The only ones present were Su Mo's family, Mei Fu's family, Zhu Yue, and the new graves.

Judging from Meifu's attitude, it was obvious that she had something to ask Zhuyue. Su Mo wisely prepared to leave, but was stopped by Meifu.

"Zhuyue, tell me in front of Su Mo and Hu Pang," Mei Fu stared at Zhuyue with his scarlet eyes, not wanting to miss the slightest change in his expression.

"Did you know about this matter in advance?!"

The only answer she got was endless silence.

Meifu's voice suddenly rose, "Answer me!"

Zhuyue still looked at the grave mound belonging to Hu Pang without saying a word.

At this moment, Meifu seemed to understand everything, "Zhuyue! He is your brother!"

Mei Fu let go of Su Mo, walked up to Zhu Yue and questioned her harshly.

Her eyes were bloodshot, like a demon crawling out of hell, and she stared at the man in front of her who looked somewhat like her husband.

"He is your brother. He loves you the most and thinks of you in all good things. Why do you just watch him die? How can you bear it? How can you bear it?!!!"

Looking at that unresponsive face, Meifu's eyes were filled with deep disappointment.

"You are more vicious than a hyena, more cold-blooded than a lizard, and more disgusting than a rat."

After saying this, Mei Fu left angrily.

Su Mo was caught between the two people and didn't know what to say for a moment.

She always felt something was wrong.

Su Mo didn't believe that Zhuyue was the one who planned this.

Given Hu Pang's rough yet delicate character, he would definitely be skeptical if Zhuyue suggested that the hunting team only wanted single orcs.

Just when Su Mo was hesitating, Zhuyue shook his head at her.

Su Mo looked at Zhu Yue deeply, then took Ling Han and Mu Yang to chase Mei Fu.

In the quiet wilderness, Zhuyue was the only one standing there alone.

Cicadas chirped all around.

A sigh, dissipated in the wind.
