Chapter 326 Dealing with Smart People
Jianze used his intimidation to give Jialan a strong reminder.
Remind Jia Lan not to have any bad thoughts towards A'li.
During the time in the Golden Cat Tribe, Ming Gongli was with Nian Nian on a daily basis, and was always protected by Nian Nian's brothers or He Sen.
And there is a mermaid warrior secretly protecting Ari.
But mermaids also have a disadvantage, which is that they cannot fly and cannot defend themselves well against dangers in the sky.
So Jianze let Jialan follow Minggongli, and Jialan's behavior was watched by mermaids on a daily basis.
Over the past year, Jialan has been doing quite well.
Therefore, Jianze chose to trust this young man temporarily, also because Qianqian, Xiao Bo and others were optimistic about him.
After walking a few steps and coming to a big tree at the fork in the road, Jianze saw Qingyu waiting for him.
"Let's go to the meeting hall."
"Well, have you told Jia Lan everything just now?" Qingyu asked as they walked.
"It was pretty much what we guessed. He's very smart, very good at reading people's expressions, and very aware of the situation. I just gave him a little hint, and he took the initiative to tell me everything."
"So what's your impression of him? Can you trust Jia Lan? If you don't think he's trustworthy, just chase him away."
Patting Qingyu on the shoulder, Jianze smiled:
"You know I have never liked the dull and honest orcs."
The two of them grew up in the crowd of people in the City of Beasts. Where there are many people, there are many smart people. Not only are they smart, but they have also trained their eyes to see clearly.
No matter what other people are thinking, they can guess it.
However, having a mind doesn’t mean that one is a bad animal, has bad character or is untrustworthy.
On the contrary, dealing with smart people is sometimes less stressful.
Qingyu was amused and laughed:
"I don't like people who are too naive either. In my opinion, 'naive' actually means stupid."
"Hey, please keep your voice down, if those two idiots Xiao Bo and Xiao Zhong hear them, Qianqian will give you a cold shoulder.
They just got married, Qianqian is very fond of them!"
Qingyu: "Xiao Bo and Xiao Zhong are not really stupid, they just pretend to be stupid in front of Qianqian."
Thinking of his own female, Jianze couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth, and his jaw became gentle: "I don't know if it's stupid or not.
But they are two brothers, and so are you and I. As long as Ayu doesn't act like a pig teammate and drags us down, are we afraid that we can't compete with the giant panda brothers?"
It's better not to mention this matter. When it comes to this, Qingyu curls his lips and feels sour in his heart:
"How dare you say that. It's obviously you who always lags behind! And you often leave me behind to go with others!"
"What else? Qianqian won't be happy with too many people around. Do you want to be kicked off the bed?"
"How can you be so shameless? Are you still the young city lord? Anyway, I can't do it!"
Qingyu felt inferior to him. When it came to acting like a spoiled child, being naughty and cunning, although he and Jianze grew up together, he could never compare to him.
Jianze disagreed: "Come on, you've benefited a lot from following me. Qianqian likes you to act like a little snowy owl and act like a spoiled child to her, and she loves it the most. But what about you? You can only imitate me 30%. If you spend some time to imitate little birds and kittens, you can also learn 70% to 80% of the essence. If you follow her wishes, are you afraid that you won't get her attention?"
Seeing the meeting room right in front of them, the two of them stopped talking at the same time and pushed the door open and went in.
The elders of the Linghu tribe basically gather here during the day to deal with tribal affairs.
The most important thing for the Linghu tribe today is the rice harvest.
There were several wrinkled old orcs sitting at the table in the hall.
These elders are too old to do heavy farm work, but they are smart and experienced in life, and they are still strong enough to take care of the trivial matters of each household and the tribe.
The elders all turned their heads and saw two tall, burly and powerful orcs walking side by side with the light behind them.
With a majestic and tall figure and extraordinary bearing, it is obvious at first glance that he is not an ordinary warrior.
The elders quickly opened their cloudy eyes and quickly recognized Jianze and Qingyu.
Several elders stood up in fear and greeted him with smiles:
"Young City Lord, Lord Qingyu, why are you here?"
When they saw that they were important figures in the City of Beasts, they immediately brought chairs over and asked them to sit down.
Then he stood aside respectfully.
In the eyes of outsiders, Jianze and Qingyu are respectively an introvert and an extrovert.
Jianze is majestic and cold, and it seems that he is difficult to talk to at first glance; while Qingyu, in contrast, is more friendly and seems easier to talk to.
Several people didn't dare to talk to Jianze, and looked at Qingyu for help.
Qingyu cleared his throat and said, "Uncle Su, Uncle Ye, please sit down. We are here to visit you."
"Ah!" Several people thought they had heard it wrong.
"Master Qingyu, if you have anything to say, you can just tell me. You are the great supporter of our Spirit Fox Clan. If there is something, there is no need for you to come in person. Just send a little orc to run errands and shout, and we will go to your house immediately."
Qing Yu said, "Actually, there's nothing else to do. I just want to ask you, what kind of couple ceremony should Hu Ling and my Qian Qian hold?"
"Getting married?" The cloudy eyes of several old fellows immediately brightened up.
"Yes, our tribe leader and the little female Qianqian are going to get married. This is a happy event that all of us beastmen in our tribe are looking forward to.
Lord Qingyu, you just need to name a date and this can be done immediately. We will take care of everything.
It is guaranteed to be a lively and unforgettable experience.”
Another elder of the tribe placed some food on the table and motioned for them to eat.
For them, distinguished guests should be treated with the best food.
Qingyu nodded to express his gratitude, and then said, "Then let's do it tonight. It's better to do it early. Harvesting rice is also a happy event. It will be more lively if we set them off together."
"Then we will do it tonight. Lord Qingyu, please tell the little female Qianqian to come to the square to complete the ceremony when both suns have set."
"Okay, you guys get busy, we're leaving."
The two men stood up and strode away.
A few old guys were left behind, rubbing their hands and smiling with wrinkles on their faces.
Hu Ling, who was threshing grain in the square, sneezed loudly towards the sun.
He rubbed his eyes, and when he opened them again, he saw a group of old orcs walking towards him excitedly.
"Chief Fox, stop working! Go take a bath and dress up to smell good. You're getting married tonight."
Fox Ling: ...
(I got married tonight, how come I didn’t know it?)
He was completely confused, but after listening to the explanation, he finally understood what the old guys meant.
It turns out that I am going to be Qianqian’s partner tonight.
He was always prepared. How could it not work? It had to work! There was absolutely no problem!
Throwing down his tools, he wiped his hands on his collar and said to everyone:
"Qianqian is my beloved little female, and I will never settle for anything less than being with her. Come on, all of you follow me, and we'll make the arrangements."
"Great!" The tribesmen in the square were excited again, waving farm tools and dancing.
Farm work can be done another day, but today is a big deal and we can’t make do with it.
The tribesmen took immediate action.
Dozens of sacrificial animals of various kinds were picked up according to the long-standing tradition of Linghu, with some used for sacrifice and some as food in the evening.
In addition, several people were arranged to go to the forest to cut wood, and some wood was selected that had a special fragrance after burning. The fox tribe would burn the fragrant wood and light a bonfire at a grand ceremony.
The scent of fragrant wood lingers around the tribe and the surrounding forests, making people feel relaxed and happy every time they smell it.
He Qianqian slept until mid-afternoon when she was woken up by Ye Qianmu.
"Qianbao, hurry up and get dressed, you and Hu Ling are going to be together tonight!"
"Ah, so fast!"
"It's just a ceremony, everything else is up to you."
Ye Qianmu took out various beautiful clothes and placed them on the bed for her to choose from.
She also took out various jewelry and picked them out to match them with her clothes.
Before he met Qianqian, he couldn't even cook. But now, he is an expert at dressing himself up as a female.
