Chapter 159 Discovering Clay
The next morning, news of Lie Bai and Yin's death had spread throughout Yao City and Beifeng City.
The first to know about it were the orcs at Yaocheng Trading Center. Early in the morning, Lie Bai arrived at the entrance of Yaocheng Trading Center. The smell on his body was so strong that it was difficult for the orcs to ignore it.
Sang Yi knew that Yin was pursuing Lie Bai. He thought that this arrogant snake would not be so easy to win over, but he did not expect that Yin would become his partner so soon. He stared at Lie Bai with some displeasure and said, "Why are you here alone? Where is Yin?"
Lie Bai said somewhat embarrassedly: "Yin feels a little uncomfortable today. I came here to tell you that Yin needs to rest for a day."
Need a day off? At the entrance of the trading center, several orcs looked at Lie Bai unhappily.
Sang Yi said, "Okay then, I'll tell Li about this, and Li will be in charge of the music."
Lie Bai said sincerely, "Thank you." Then he rowed away.
After Liebai left, an orc asked enviously, "Is Liebai so strong?"
Sang Yi glanced at him and said, "You really can't compare to this. There are two snake beastmen, which is equivalent to two of you."
The orc shook his head, this really can't be compared.
Sang Yi said, "Let's go dig some more stone pots, there aren't enough."
When the females from the reception center arrived, they were all surprised to hear that Yin needed to rest for a day.
Wan said enviously, "Li, when I find a partner, I will also take a day off."
Li looked at Wan and asked, "How many orcs are you planning to form a partnership with at the same time?"
Sang Yi on the side looked at Wan nervously.
Wan Dao: "No, just one."
Sang Yi breathed a sigh of relief.
Li looked at the females and asked, "You have never come into contact with snake beastmen before?"
Late and other females shook their heads.
Li smiled and said, "I'll tell you a secret. There are two snake beastmen. Finding one snake beastman is like finding two partners."
Looking at the shocked faces of the females, Li said with satisfaction: "Ye Zi has four partners. We used to laugh at her for finding five partners because one of her partners is a snake beastman."
The females were chatting while weaving net bags for the stone pots with rattan. Their voices were not very low, but the orcs nearby could still hear them clearly if they listened carefully. They silently memorized the females' words.
Sherman looked in the direction of the females and whispered to Sang Yi, "When are you going to woo Wan?"
Sang Yi said, "Wait until my house is renovated."
Sherman patted his shoulder and said, "Watch out, be careful that other orcs get there before you. I'm going to pickle the meat. The weather has been good recently, so we need to make more jerky. I don't know when Lang Si and the others will be back. We don't have any sugar cane left to make sweet jerky."
At the city lord's house, Chen Shiyue hadn't seen Yiyun since she got up. She asked Chiqiu, who said that the city lord had taken the orcs to dig coal and stone across from Beifeng City.
Chiqiu said with a gossipy look on his face: "Sister Shiyue, I have some news for you. A female named Yin under Sister Li's command formed a mate with the big white python from Beifeng City last night."
Chen Shiyue's eyes widened. This news was quite explosive. This was the first marriage between the two sides.
She asked curiously, "Is that Liebai coming to our side, or Yin going to that side?"
Chiqiu said, "There is a small tent opposite the trading center. It is said that it was prepared by the Lord of Liefeng City for Liebai. Liebai and Yin stayed in that tent last night. This morning, some orcs from Beifeng City helped Liebai build a house next to the small tent."
Di Bo added, "The other side of the river is Beifeng City, so it should be counted as Yin's going there. However, they live so close to our trading center, closer than where we live to the trading center. So, Yin doesn't have to go to Beifeng City, so it doesn't seem to be counted as going there."
Chen Shiyue thought that this method was also feasible. Lie Bai was an orc and was fast. Even if he didn't live in Beifeng City, he could still travel back and forth quickly, which would not affect his work in Beifeng City. Yin lived on the other side of the trading center, and it was convenient to get to the trading center across the river. If a bridge was built at the trading center, Yin could travel back and forth by himself, which would be great.
I took a walk around the backyard, looked at the rabbits and chickens, and the vegetable garden that was getting greener. It was very healing and put me in a good mood for the day.
After letting the two teenagers take her around as usual, Chen Shiyue decided to go to the trading center to take a look.
When we entered the trading center, we saw the orcs were either digging stone pots or processing food in the kitchen. A lot of meat strips were already drying on the shelves in front of the trading center.
Chen Shiyue asked curiously, "Where are the females?" Li, the reception center, currently works as a waitress and usually stays in the dining area of the trading center.
Sherman said, "We are making nets by the river in front, mainly to watch the excitement on the other side."
Chen Shiyue is funny, which fits Li's personality.
She led the two young beastmen to the front of the trading center, and sure enough, she saw a dozen females sitting on stools, working, chatting, and looking at the other side.
There was indeed a small tent on the other side of the river, and not far from the tent, a group of orcs were building a house.
Li saw Chen Shiyue and immediately waved, "Shiyue, come here quickly."
Chen Shiyue walked over and said with a smile: "Aren't you afraid of the sun?"
"Hello, Madam Mayor." The females greeted with a smile, but they didn't dare to call the Madam Mayor's name like Li did.
Li was immediately startled and said, "I was so busy watching the fun that I forgot to bring my hat. Hong, go get some straw hats from the shelf."
The female named Hong ran away immediately.
Li stood up and said excitedly: "Shiyue, you should have heard about it, right?"
Chen Shiyue smiled and nodded.
Li smiled and said, "You know, Yin couldn't get up today. This is the first time she met a snake beastman when she was paired up. She suffered a lot."
Snake beastman, Chen Shiyue seemed to understand, looking at Li's tone, she felt more envious than distressed.
Hong quickly brought over a stack of straw hats and each of the females put one on their heads. Li also put one on Chen Shiyue.
Chen Shiyue watched for a moment and was about to leave when she saw some orcs on the opposite side carrying a long piece of wood and walking towards the river. Two peregrine falcons were flying quickly in the sky, and one of them had Liefeng sitting on it.
"Shiyue." Liefeng shouted loudly, and then he jumped lightly off the peregrine falcon.
Chen Shiyue was startled. They were still in the air, wouldn’t they break their legs?
Li and the others were also surprised.
It turned out that Liefeng really wouldn't break his legs. He crossed his hands several times in the air and landed steadily on the ground.
Chen Shiyue was secretly surprised. This orc was worthy of being Yiyun's opponent. He couldn't fly, but he had mastered the flying skills.
Lie Feng stood on the opposite bank of the river and looked at this side and said: "Shiyue, I want to build a bridge over here, you don't object, right?"
Chen Shiyue looked at the orcs who were carrying wood to the river and said, "You are already planning to build a bridge, and you are asking me now. Is it any use for me to object?"
Liefeng nodded and said, "If you object, I will ask them not to take the ride."
Chen Shiyue glanced at the orcs opposite and said, "If you want to build it, then build it." There's nothing wrong with building a few more bridges.
Liefeng smiled. The little female's expression was really interesting.
Chen Shiyue said something to Li, called Chiqiu and Di Bo, and headed upstream.
Chiqiu carried Chen Shiyue and said seriously, "Sister Shiyue, that Liefeng City Lord has feelings for you. You must not give him a chance, otherwise our City Lord will be heartbroken."
Chen Shiyue touched Chiqiu's head with amusement and said, "Why do you think so? In the animal world, don't females basically have multiple partners?"
Chiqiu said as a matter of course: "That's because other orcs are not strong enough. Our city lord is such a powerful orc, he should have a partner alone."
Di Bo walked beside her and looked at Chen Shiyue with some concern, saying, "Sister Shiyue, you won't take in any other orcs, right?"
Seeing the two young beasts were worried, Chen Shiyue didn’t want to joke anymore and said solemnly: “Sister Shiyue, it’s enough for you to be the city lord.”
"Okay." Chiqiu cheered.
The two young beasts walked along the river, and Chen Shiyue wanted to go upstream to take a look.
The river kept flowing, and the waves beat against the shore. Suddenly, Chen Shiyue's eyes were attracted by the mud by the river. She shouted, "Chiqiu, put me down."
Chiqiu stopped obediently and lowered his body.
Chen Shiyue stepped off Chiqiu's back, walked to the river, squatted down, and bent over to check the mud beside the riverbed. Chiqiu was so scared that he quickly grabbed her and said, "Sister Shiyue, don't stick your head out, you will fall into the water. Just tell us what you want to do."
Chen Shiyue said: "Dig out a piece of mud that is soaked in water and take a look."
Di Bo immediately bent down and reached out, digging up a large piece of wet soil from the side of the riverbed.
Chen Shiyue reached out, pinched a small ball, looked at it carefully, and felt it. The soil was sticky. Wait, sticky, clay. Some images flashed quickly in her mind, and she couldn't help but be overjoyed.
Oh my God, isn’t this the raw material for making pottery?
Let her be quiet, she needs to think carefully about what the process was like in the pottery experience class she had participated in before?
Seeing Sister Shiyue holding a ball of mud and sometimes giggling and sometimes lost in thought, Chiqiu and Di Bo were a little confused and did not dare to disturb her.
“Chiqiu, Di Bo, Sister Shiyue is going to lead you to do something extraordinary, but no one of us can say anything until we succeed, okay?” Chen Shiyue said proudly.
