Chapter 326 Yu He wakes up
Chapter 326 Yu He wakes up
On the other side, two orcs looked at the unconscious female in front of them.
One of the orcs frowned and said, "If we really want to take her out of White Tiger City, isn't she living well there now? Why does the city lord insist on taking her away?"
"Yi, this is the city lord's order. We just need to execute it."
After saying this, another orc, as if worried that his companion still had some concerns, whispered, "Besides, we've already done what we did. People out there are already going crazy looking for the Goddess of Grain. If we send her back now, do you think they'll believe we're innocent?"
Yi looked at the orc beside him silently, "Zhu Zhu, I don't think this is right."
Zhu Zhu was puzzled and asked, "Don't you trust the City Lord? Have you forgotten that if the City Lord hadn't saved you, you would have died long ago?"
Yi said calmly, "I am very grateful to the City Lord for saving me. So as long as the City Lord gives the order, I am willing to do it."
"If that's the case, then why did you say so much? The city lord wants us to take the Goddess of He away from White Tiger City and send her to Wanliu City. He doesn't want to harm her, so don't think too much about it."
Zhu Zhu patted his shoulder and said with a smile, "You watch over the goddess, I'll go check outside. If the goddess He wakes up, try to calm her down and don't let her make any noise."
Yi didn't say anything. After Zhu Zhu left, he looked at the female pretending to sleep and said, "Are you awake?"
Yu He's eyelashes trembled slightly. She was hesitating, not knowing whether she should wake up.
However, when she heard Yi's approaching footsteps, she immediately opened her eyes. When she saw his face clearly, she couldn't help but exclaimed in surprise, "You are not..."
The Goddess Yu of the Black Water Tribe has a taciturn brother who is not her biological son but is better than her biological son. She met him once and was quite impressed because she could see that his eyes towards the Goddess Yu were not innocent.
However, Yi was not at all surprised by her surprise, as if the orc who spoke for her before was not him, and said in a cold tone:
"If you hadn't woken up just now, I would have kept you asleep."
This way, they can save a lot of effort.
Yu He sat up, looked at him, thought for a moment, and asked, "Does Goddess Yu know that you are working for Wanliu City?"
Yi's eyes turned sharp when he looked at her, "If you dare to say that..."
Yu He interrupted him helplessly, "I can barely protect myself right now, how could I possibly go to Goddess Yu and say such nonsense?"
What Yu He said was true. Yi thought that she was in their hands now and had no chance of escaping, so her expression softened.
Seeing that he relaxed, Yu He looked at the surrounding environment and silently memorized the characteristics of this place.
It's empty and doesn't look like a place to live, but more like a warehouse.
But it was built with bluestone, with moonstones stuffed on the walls, and there was some dirt on the ground. The orcs' families would not bring dirt into the warehouse, as it would easily attract insects.
In addition, it was pitch black outside the door, and Yu He wondered if there was any place that could match this environment.
A passage leading to an underground warehouse? Or perhaps a basement secretly developed by an orc family?
The female looked at the environment she was in and then became completely quiet.
Yi felt a little uneasy, as he thought Yu He's situation seemed a little too normal.
"Don't you worry about your own safety?"
Yu He looked up at him in surprise, "You want to kill me?"
She remembered that she had just heard them say that they were going to take her out of town, and their tone didn't mean they were going to do anything to her.
That's why she wasn't as irritable in front of Yi as she was in front of Tang Qiao, Tang Wei and others.
Because those two orcs really didn't look like good orcs, and their tone and actions didn't seem like they wanted to have a good conversation. If she hadn't said something harsh and bluffed herself, she would have been scared to death.
It was just that those two orcs had bad tempers. After she said a few words, they started to be violent towards her.
I'll have to let Bai Lan and Mu Fei teach them a lesson later. At least one of them will have his hands or feet broken.
Yi was silent, "...No."
Yu He breathed a sigh of relief. "That's good. It's better to be alive than to be dead."
Yi felt that what she said was right, but he also felt that it was not her right to say this.
He glanced at the female again and found that after she finished speaking, she hugged her knees with her hands, not knowing what she was thinking.
Is she thinking about how her beastly husband can come to save her?
But their place is very hidden, and Young Master Bai and the others can't find it.
Zhu Zhu was out for a long time, until Yu He had a short nap, and then he came back with a frown on his face.
"White Tiger City is under martial law, and we can't leave now. I don't know what the city lord will do. If we miss this opportunity, it will be even more difficult to bring Goddess He next time."
After saying this, he glanced at Yu He, who was still unconscious with her eyes closed, and asked, "Did Goddess He wake up in the middle of the conversation?"
It has been such a long time, and Zhu Zhu said he hasn't woken up. Only a fool would believe such a thing.
So Yi said "hmm" and then said, "She is awake now too."
Yu He: ...I really can’t pretend to be asleep anymore.
When Yu He opened her eyes, the first person she saw was the young male with a baby face.
She frowned and glanced at Yi, then looked at Zhu Zhu, who seemed particularly enthusiastic towards her. She saw a hint of caution in his eyes and did not speak.
Seeing her wary look, Zhu Zhu rubbed his hands helplessly. "Goddess He, I'm sorry, I'm just following orders. But don't worry, you're here, everything will be fine. We won't do this to you."
After saying this, Zhu Zhu seemed to remember that Yu He hadn't eaten for a long time, and he said with a somewhat flattering look:
"Goddess He hasn't eaten for a long time. I'll go get you something to eat."
Hearing this, Yu He subconsciously touched her belly.
If he hadn't told her, she wouldn't have realized she was hungry.
Seeing her like this, Zhu Zhu immediately walked out, "Then I'll go get it now. Goddess He, please wait a moment, I'll be back soon."
As soon as he finished speaking, he rushed out.
Yu He looked at Zhu Zhu's departing back with a complicated expression, "He..."
Yu He couldn't describe how she felt. She was clearly the victim, but seeing Zhu Zhu's behavior, she felt like the bully.
Yi pretended not to hear her words and just looked at Yu He and asked, "Do you want some water?"
Yu He pursed her lips. She felt that her lips were indeed a little dry, so she nodded and said, "Yes! But can you please not leave? I'll be scared if I stay here alone as an orc."
In a strange environment with dim lighting, and as a lonely orc, she would think up all kinds of horror stories to scare herself.
Seeing that she was scared, Yi thought that it was not good to leave her alone as an orc here, and Zhu Zhu valued her, so he would not forget to bring her water.
Not long after, Zhu Zhu did bring meat to Yu He, as well as wild fruits that could quench her thirst.
"Come, Goddess of Grain, take a look at these things and see if you like them. I remember you seemed to like eating this kind of green fruit very much, so I got some for you."
The green fruit tastes similar to modern apples, but is a little crisper and sweeter.
Yu He really liked it. She didn't hesitate to pick up a green fruit that had not been bitten by any insects and smelled very fragrant and took a bite.
