I've been transported to the orc continent.

Chapter 130 Shining Like the Sun

The middle-aged orc handed over the basket and said, "Your father and father are both well. This is what they asked us to bring for you."

"Your father asked me to pass on some words to you. They told you to make more friends, go out and play with the young orcs in the tribe, and not to be so indifferent to males. They hope that when they return, they will see that you have found a mate."

Yue's face immediately turned red. He knew right away that the words about his partner that followed must have come from his father.

Orcs have long lifespans, and some of them go out to travel. Yue's father and father were like that; they went out after Yue came of age.

Orcs who traveled abroad would ask caravans from the central tribes to bring back things for their relatives or clansmen.

After receiving the gifts, Yue tried her best not to blush: "Thank you all. I'll bring the payment over later."

The things Yue's father and father brought back for him were two strings of colorful round stones to wear on his wrists, a black horn of some unknown animal, and some other trinkets.

These items have all been meticulously crafted, especially the black horn, which has a warm, lustrous sheen and looks as if it has been handled countless times.

Bai Ling didn't know what kind of people Yue's father and father were, but they must be very, very good people to have raised Yue so well, and they must love Yue very much.

Yue felt a little melancholy after receiving the things her father and father had sent back.

Bai Ling knew the reason; it must be that Yue missed her father.

Bai Ling comforted him, "Yue, your father brought you these things, which means they are all well, so you don't need to worry."

Yue said, "I'm not worried, I just really miss them."

“Then let’s wait two more years, until everything in the tribe is settled, and then I’ll go with you to find them,” Bai Ling said.

Bai Ling also wanted to go out and see how big the world really was, how many new and wonderful sights he had never seen before, and with the moon as his companion. If he didn't have so many things to do, Bai Ling would really want to set off right now.

A smile finally appeared on Yue's face, and the trace of melancholy disappeared: "Going out is not so easy. Besides, I don't even know where my father and father are. How am I supposed to find them?"

Bai Ling laughed and said, "We have plenty of time, we can look for it slowly."

Yue handed a string of colorful stones to Bai Ling: "This is for you."

"Huh?" Bai Ling scratched his head: "Yue, isn't this inappropriate? This was brought back to you from afar by your father and father. It's not right to give it to me."

Yue: "What's wrong with this? If you don't want it, then I won't give it to you."

Yue pretended to pull her hand back, but Bai Ling quickly took the bracelet. The bracelet was a bit long and could be wrapped around her wrist twice.

Bai Ling raised her hand to show Yue: "Yue, it looks really good, you should wear it too."

Yue put on another bracelet as well. As she walked, the colorful beads swayed back and forth on her wrist, which looked absolutely beautiful.

The caravan from the central tribe has arrived, and the Chadah assembly is about to begin.

Bai Ling and her family sorted out some unused items from their home, planning to exchange them at the Chada Conference.

Bai Ling knew before that his house had a lot of things, but she didn't realize exactly how much. It was only after organizing it today that she realized how much stuff he really had.

There was enough meat for the whole family to eat for a long time, enough hides for several years, and also a lot of jade, dried fish and scallops, precious wine, and many exquisite ornaments.

"Having too little stuff is a worry, having too much stuff is also a worry," Feng said while tidying up. "The chieftain said that half of the things the central tribe uses for exchange will go to the tribe and half to Ling. That means we'll have a lot more meat at home, and we can't eat that much. Cang, what do you suggest we do?"

Cang took out some unused animal hides, which he planned to exchange for goods at the Chada Assembly: "Or we can exchange them with our tribesmen."

Feng: "Look at our family, we have everything. Even if we were to trade, what could we trade? We have everything our clansmen have, so there's nothing to trade."

That's true. Their family has a lot of things, and they have everything. If we were to trade with other members of the clan, I really can't think of anything to exchange.

Bai Ling took out some ornaments and said, "Father, Father, I've thought about it. We'd better not accept the meat that the Central Tribe gave us this time. We can't possibly eat all of it. Let's keep a small portion and give the rest to the tribe."

Because of building houses and farming, the tribespeople have had much less time to go out hunting and gathering. This year, the tribe's food supply is somewhat insufficient, which is why Bai Ling came up with this idea.

The central tribe brought a lot of dried meat. Even if the tribe divided it in half, he would still have half and still not be able to finish the meat he received by the New Year.

The tribe was short of food, so he could keep some for himself and give the rest to the tribe.

When Feng heard his son say that, he nodded and said, "That works too. The tribe doesn't have enough food. We have a lot of food at home, so it would be good to send some to the tribe."

Cang agreed with Bai Ling's approach, and Chen had no objections either; the whole family agreed to this arrangement.

When Yue learned that Bai Ling was going to send some food to the tribe, he approved and supported it. He felt that Bai Ling was doing the right thing, and that's how orcs should help each other.

The Chada Festival is the liveliest market of the year. It lasts for three days. The first and second days are for trading, and the third day is for competitions. There are two competitions: running in animal form and fighting in human form. Many orcs will participate in the competitions. The orc who wins first place is the bravest orc from the surrounding tribes and will be worshipped and welcomed by all the orcs.

Yue once won first place, and the prize was an exquisite necklace carved from five-colored jade. At that time, Bai Ling had not yet regained his senses. He clung to Yue, grabbed Yue's hand and wouldn't let go, crying and demanding Yue's necklace. Feng and Cang couldn't persuade him at all, and could only coax Bai Ling while apologizing to Yue.

Not only was Yue not angry with Bai Ling, but she also gave Bai Ling a bead from her necklace. Only then did Bai Ling stop crying and smile, and leave with her father and father, completely satisfied.

Yue only participated in the competition that one time, and didn't participate for the next two years. This year, he plans to participate again.

Bai Ling was a little worried. He was afraid that Yue would get injured in the competition, but it was Yue's decision, and he couldn't object.

Yue saw Bai Ling's worry: "Ling, you can trust me. I am Yue."

As she spoke, Yue raised her head slightly, her icy blue eyes shining with confidence, her expression extremely proud, and she shone as brightly as the sun.

At this moment, Bai Ling had no worries left, only support and trust for Yue: "Yes, you are Yue, I believe in you."
