Chapter 947 - 946, Solemn
"Zhuangzhuang, open that Beast Skin parcel," the old priest’s voice carried a weight of solemnity.
At this moment, Gui Zhuangzhuang also had many guesses, none of them comforting, so as soon as the old priest finished speaking, he unfurled the Beast Skin wrap in his hands.
Instantly, a piece of Beast Skin that was clearly of the same high-quality as the garments worn by the two little ones fell to the cave floor.
It was a fiery red Beast Skin as tall and as wide as an Orc, clearly matching the clothes of the two young ones.
That Beast Skin was simply too beautiful, even the old priest was momentarily stunned.
After a long while, heavy breathing echoed through the cave, the hearts of the Orcs quaking immensely.
They all wore expressions of ecstasy in their eyes, knowing that with this piece of Beast Skin, the Tortoise Tribe’s protection fee for the year was secured.
In fact, by offering up just this piece of Beast Skin, they wouldn’t need to part with any other items.
And the Orcs of the Giant Whale Clan would be incredibly pleased; it might even result in many benefits for the Tortoise Tribe.
If an Orc of high status in the Giant Whale Clan took a liking to this Beast Skin, they might even receive a Water God Fruit at this year’s grand trade fair.
If that were to happen, the Tortoise Tribe would truly flourish, gaining another evolved Orc among them.
Therefore, the Orcs inside the cave now looked at the Beast Skin lying quietly on the floor with burning desire in their eyes.
At this moment, the old priest was the first to snap back to reality.
Looking at the fiery-red Beast Skin on the ground, he grabbed a Beast Bone and hit Gui Zhuangzhuang on the head with it.
"What are you daydreaming for? Such precious Beast Skin you’ve just thrown on the ground, pick it up this instant!"
Gui Zhuangzhuang was jolted back to reality by the old priest’s blow.
He quickly bent over to pick up the Beast Skin from the ground and wrapped it up carefully.
The old priest looked at the two little ones lying on the ground looking pitiful and felt a movement in his heart.
He beckoned kindly, "Baobao, Beibei, come to Grandpa."
The two young ones glanced at their father, who had just been scolding them, and then trotted over to the old priest.
They even nudged their little heads against the old priest’s thigh.
The old priest stroked the little ones’ heads, his voice as gentle as Amu’s touch, "Baobao, can you tell us which one of those Orcs is your Shaman friend? We need to prepare a gift when we go see them tomorrow."
Gui Baobao blinked her small, beady eyes, her voice soft and sweet, "The Shaman isn’t an Orc; she’s a very pretty female. She makes delicious food, and she really likes me."
With that, she held her little chin up proudly.
However, the cave once again plunged into silence.
A female Shaman!
So, the female who did nothing but play with Baobao and Beibei was the Shaman.
The old priest finally shifted his perspective.
He had been viewing the Land Beastmen through the eyes of the Aquatic Clan.
Thinking about it, there was no such thing as females not being allowed to gather herbs among the Land Beastmen, so their females could become Shamans too.
He couldn’t help but reach out and gently stroke the two young ones’ heads; they really had wronged the little ones.
