Chapter 207: Sacrifice to the Beast God (7)
As he spoke, Mo Ci noticed Xuan Sang looking at him eagerly, and his brows furrowed slightly.
"You, follow."
"Yes, sir."
Xuan Sang was about to say the word "Dad" again, but he stopped himself in time and simply followed the others in calling Mo Ci "Sir".
Finally, Mo Ci breathed a sigh of relief when he didn't hear the child calling him dad.
The group quickly arrived at the place. The altar was completely destroyed after being struck by lightning, revealing the contents inside.
So things like making covenants were moved to other places.
When Mo Ci arrived, there were already quite a few orcs there joining in the fun.
Seeing Mo Ci coming, a group of people enthusiastically called out "Sir", with envy in their eyes for the orc couple who were about to form a bond.
This is the first time in such a long time that Mo Ci has sent blessings to others.
Isn’t that enviable?
When he came in front of the crowd, Mo Ci saw the two orcs who were about to form a contract. To be honest, these orcs were just people with animal ears and tails, and there was no essential difference.
The so-called covenant can be compared to marriage.
It’s just that the constraints are greater, and if one day they want to separate, they will have to pay the same price.
Therefore, the orcs who want to form a pact have all thought about it seriously.
At the moment, Xuan Sang followed Mo Ci closely like a little tail.
Even though the other orcs noticed him, they didn't bother to care since they saw him following Mo Ci and Mo Ci didn't stop him.
"Greetings, Master Qinghui."
The two orcs who formed a pact this time bowed to Mo Ci. Mo Ci nodded and looked at the two of them.
The female orc had a necklace made of wild animal teeth hanging around her neck, and a beautiful wreath on her head.
In fact, the decorations and attire for this covenant are extremely simple.
However, the smiles on the faces of the two orcs who were about to form a covenant were particularly bright.
Mo Ci looked at them and spoke without hesitation.
"As the King of the Orc Kingdom, I wish you two a long and happy marriage."
Just a few words, a very ordinary blessing, but it made the two of them kneel down and kowtow to thank him again and again.
Immediately afterwards, Mo Ci took the whip from the person who presided over the contract and tapped it lightly on the two of them, which was considered as a blessing for them.
After doing all this, Mo Ci was led to sit aside and watch the two orcs continue to complete the next bond ceremony.
This special method was the first time Mo Ci had seen it, so he naturally wanted to take a closer look.
Xuan Sang also sat down with Mo Ci. When Mo Ci looked at him, there was a flattering smile on his little face.
In the end, Mo Ci didn't care about Xuan Sang's move of taking advantage of the situation and turned his attention to the pair of orcs.
The covenant has reached the final step - reporting to Heaven.
Almost the moment they started, Mo Ci raised his head and looked at the blue sky.
At that moment, it seemed as if something was really watching this place, watching the pair of orcs.
Is it the way of heaven?
Or the Beast God?
Mo Ci narrowed his eyes, looked up at the sky and was still not able to come back to his senses.
Xuan Sang, who was standing beside him, looked at Mo Ci and followed his example to look up at the sky.
After a while, his neck became sore, and he pouting and retracted his movements.
Looking at Mo Ci again, he was still the same. Xuan Sang couldn't help but reach out and pull Mo Ci's sleeve.
Mo Ci looked at him with a gleam of light in his eyes, which made Xuan Sang withdraw his hand involuntarily, but he continued to speak.
"Sir, isn't your neck sore?"
Mo Ci: “Not sour.”
Just at this moment, everyone was happily eating and drinking. Mo Ci picked up Xuan Sang and left the table.
Some orcs noticed it, but didn't think much of it and continued with their fun.
Here, Xuan Sang was brought by Mo Ci to the shore of the place where he fell last night. Mo Ci pointed to the center of the river.
"I ask you, how did you fall into the water?"
Xuan Sang was put down, but he was still reluctant. He looked at Mo Ci's arm, then at the river, and continued to shake his head.
"I don't know. I really don't know."
Mo Ci: "Okay, then let me ask you, where did you live before?"
Xuan Sang looked at Mo Ci with his round eyes, then looked away with a conflicted look on his face. He looked left and right, but didn't look at Mo Ci.
After a while, he said, "I live on a very high mountain. I'm all alone there. It's so lonely."
"Father, I found the portrait you put there, so I came to find you."
portrait? his?
After listening to Xuan Sang's words, Mo Ci was certain that Qinghui definitely did not have a son.
In other words, Qinghui has never had any experience of being close to any female orcs, so how could he give birth to a son out of thin air?
But the portrait Xuan Sang described didn't seem false.
Qinghui only resembles his mother and father to a certain extent, so...
What's going on with that portrait?
"Portrait? Did you bring it?"
Xuan Sang shook his head. "I slept with my father's portrait in my arms yesterday. I dreamed about him all the time. The moment I opened my eyes, I fell into the river and was rescued by him."
"Dad, I really am your son, and you really are my dad."
Mo Ci: ...
Sorry, he doesn't acknowledge the father-son relationship.
Moreover, what kind of thing could make Xuan Sang come here suddenly, and happen to be near him?
Teleportation array?
But Mo Ci did not sense the existence of any formation, nor did he sense any aura that did not belong to this orc continent.
The only thing that could be felt was the strange sense of being watched from above.
Could it be that the thing that was spying on him did it?
But what does the other party want to do?
Unable to figure it out, Mo Ci looked at Xuan Sang again.
"You said you live alone in the mountains. How do you survive? Looking at your condition, I'm afraid hunting is not going to be a possibility for you."
Even if he is the protagonist, such a young protagonist is definitely not a powerful existence. It is not easy for him to live a safe and sound life alone.
When Xuan Sang was asked this question, he scratched his head subconsciously.
"Father, there's a powerful stone slab where I live. Every day at mealtime, food appears on it by itself. I survive by relying on that."
"It's a pity, I don't know how I got here. Otherwise, I would definitely take that thing with me and show it to my father so that he wouldn't have to worry about starving to death."
Mo Ci: ...
Thanks, I can't use it.
What's more, it is unheard of for a baby to be able to produce food by himself at mealtime.
Perhaps, someone is keeping Xuan Sang in captivity.
The fact that Xuan Sang appears here is very telling.
Or, the other party used Xuan Sang as bait to lure Mo Ci to find out the truth and then kill Mo Ci.
Or, Xuan Sang just came here by accident, and his arrival was a curse rather than a blessing.
Or maybe Xuan Sang is the other party's guide.
After pondering for a while, considering all the options together, Xuan Sang would bring big trouble.
But it is obviously too late to abandon the person now, and it may even cause trouble.
Mo Ci sighed. No, he still had to improve his strength.
As for Xuan Sang, since he is the protagonist, he will definitely have his own opportunities.
Then Mo Ci doesn't need to do anything extra, just let him develop freely.
Since the person behind the scenes did not show up, Mo Ci took this opportunity to improve his strength.
In short, every day you spend improving your strength means a greater chance of turning defeat into victory.
After confirming, Mo Ci didn't ask any more questions and took Xuan Sang back to his residence.
After giving some instructions to the others, he took Xuan Sang and left the place alone, heading towards the tribe he had not found before.
The content of that ancient book is only missing three parts, and Mo Ci plans to piece it all together.
At the same time, he was practicing while traveling, so he didn't waste any time.
As for Xuan Sang, Mo Ci completely adopted a laissez-faire strategy.
Then, as Mo Ci expected, when they were about to reach one of the tribes, Xuan Sang accidentally fell and fell into a pit.
There was a wooden box hidden under the pit, and in the box was a book of cultivation techniques that was very suitable for Xuan Sang's qualifications.
