Chapter 176 Silver Fox Clan
Hu Yang and Hu Yuan exchanged a glance. "They are our neighbors, the Silver Fox Clan."
Silver Fox Clan?
Where did this tribe come from? I've never heard the Silver Tiger Clan mention it before.
Lin Baiyan thought this way and asked the same question.
Hearing Lin Baiyan's question, Hu Yang explained, "The Silver Fox Clan lives in the snowy mountains further north. We used to be neighbors, but we moved away later."
"However, we never lost contact, and this time it was they who received the information."
“We thought you would also be going to trade, so the three tribes of us could team up at the market so we could look after each other.”
Lin Baiyan glanced at Lang Cang beside him. Lang Cang pondered for a moment and said in a deep voice, "We do indeed need to go to the trading market. We would be extremely grateful if someone could lead the way."
"But is the Silver Fox Clan willing?"
Hu Yang smiled and waved his hand, "You can rest assured about that. With our Silver Tiger Clan as our guarantor, there won't be any problems."
Tiger Kite, as if remembering something, tugged at Tiger Fang's fur coat and winked at him.
Then Huya slapped his forehead, his expression somewhat strange. He rubbed his hands together, looking somewhat embarrassed.
Seeing this, Lin Baiyan asked, "What's wrong? Is there a problem?"
Hu Yang smiled somewhat awkwardly, "I forgot to tell you, the Silver Fox Clan members have a rather eccentric personality. If they offend you in any way, please bear with them."
Hearing Hu Yang say that, Lin Baiyan's curiosity about the Silver Fox Clan grew even stronger, but he didn't say anything. He waved his hand dismissively, "It's nothing. We should all take care of each other when we're out and about. Just don't go too far."
He would tolerate it as much as possible and didn't want to cause any trouble, but if there really was a time when they couldn't get along, he wouldn't tolerate it anymore.
Hu Yang breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing this.
The Silver Tiger tribe and the Silver Fox tribe have been neighbors for almost generations. If it weren't for the severe food shortage on the snow-capped mountains that forced the Silver Tiger tribe to migrate, the two tribes would probably still be good friends for generations.
But it doesn't matter now. Although the foxes of the Silver Fox Clan are a bit eccentric, they are mostly lazy and prefer to lie on the snow and sunbathe.
That's why Hu Yang found it strange. Logically speaking, it's normal for felines to like sunbathing. The tigers in their tribe would always find a sunny corner to sunbathe when they had free time, and then turn over to sunbathe until one side was hot.
If it weren't for the daily tasks, these "big tigers" could bask in the sun all day long!
But these foxes, surprisingly, also like to laze around all day, finding a warm and cozy place to lie down anywhere, and can lie there all day hugging their tails.
Perhaps it is because the two tribes share such common interests that they have been able to live together peacefully.
Moreover, the Silver Fox Clan is one of the few beastmen who are not afraid of the tigers. For this reason, the tigers of the Silver Tiger Clan are particularly kind to these seemingly weak foxes, for fear that their hard-won neighbors will be scared away again.
The fox, perceived as weak and timid: "..."
“In that case, it’s settled then. We’ll set off in two more ten-day periods. According to the Silver Fox Clan, this trading market is quite far away, and it will take us at least three ten-day periods to get there.”
“In previous years, the trading market usually started at the end of autumn and ended at the beginning of the snow season, which just missed the hunting season. With this sudden advance, the warriors have to quickly hunt a batch of prey to bring to the trading market.”
Hu Yang frowned, thinking about all the problems in the tribe.
Lin Baiyan listened thoughtfully to what Hu Yang said. According to Hu Yang, it was mid-July now, and the trading market would open in fifty days, which would be around mid-September.
It's mid-September and it's still not autumn. It seems his calculations were correct. Time on the Orc Continent is indeed four months longer than on Earth, with each season extending by a month.
Actually, this is quite good. Time flies on Earth, and Lin Baiyan often feels that twelve months a year is not enough. Now it's great, a full sixteen months. Considering the lifespan of orcs, wouldn't he have gained several decades of life for free?
Lin Baiyan's imagination ran wild, and he was quite pleased with himself. Who wouldn't want to live a long life? Why not take what's free?
"White Flame Priest, White Flame Priest? Is the time I suggested okay?"
Seeing Lin Baiyan looking lost in thought, Lang Cang coughed, bringing him back to reality.
Lin Baiyan quickly composed himself, "No problem, we'll go exactly according to your schedule."
It was their first time going to a trading market, and having someone guide them was better than rushing in blindly without knowing anything.
"Okay, then it's settled?"
"no problem!"
Just as the orcs finished setting their time to go to the trading market, a group of tigers excitedly exclaimed from outside the activity room, "Captain, look how beautiful the houses of the Azure Flame Tribe are!"
"And tables and chairs!"
"Yes, yes, yes, this place is really nice!"
The tigers swarmed in, chattering amongst themselves as they described to Hu Yang what they had just seen at Tiger Hill.
Hu Yang's forehead veins bulged from their noise, and he wished he could punch these chattering tigers!
Before he could make a move, a swift figure vanished before his eyes. Tiger Kite stepped forward and gave one of the beasts a sharp rap on the head, his expression fierce. "All of you, behave yourselves! What kind of nonsense is this?!"
Lin Baiyan was dumbfounded when he saw this. He usually thought Hu Yuan looked like a cool and aloof older sister. At first, when she said she wanted to be friends with him, Lin Baiyan was a little embarrassed, but seeing how sincere she was, Lin Baiyan did not hesitate.
Through these interactions, Hu Yuan has demonstrated a remarkable ability to take charge, manage effectively, and operate with great efficiency and composure—she seems like a true powerhouse. It's unexpected that Hu Yuan is so surprising within the tribe.
The tigers, having just been beaten, looked up with fierce expressions, ready to see who dared to hit them. But then they saw Tiger Kite waving his fist with a warning look. The tigers immediately wilted, lowered their heads timidly, and dared not utter a word.
Seeing this, Hu Yuan snorted coldly, thinking that they were smart enough. Only then did she suddenly realize that she was not in her own tribe.
Hu Yuan turned her head stiffly, and then saw Lin Baiyan's surprised look. She smiled awkwardly, "Baiyan, would you believe me if I said I'm not usually like this?"
Lin Baiyan nodded like a chick pecking at rice, "I believe you, I believe you!"
"Now that we've finished discussing things, would you like to take a tour of our tribe?"
Lin Baiyan glanced at the tigers beside him, who wished they could shrink into the ground, and shook his head with amusement. "Let's have lunch here."
