Chapter 277: Competition Day
When Mu Qingqing woke up at noon the next day, the house was empty. There was no sound of kids playing around, which made her feel a little bit uncomfortable.
Mu Qingqing went downstairs and asked Mo Xiao, aren’t the kids taking a rest today?
"Where are they?"
Mo Xiao lazily turned his eyes away from the book, his long black hair falling messily on his chest like a waterfall.
"Alin said they still have to arrange the competition positions in advance."
Mu Qingqing laughed. The teachers really made the best use of the little brats.
There was a plate of freshly fried dried fish on the dining table, still hot.
The dried fish was crispy and delicious. Mo Xiao put down his book and stood up to make something to eat for Mu Qingqing, but she stopped him.
I slept for a long time and couldn’t eat much.
She made a cup of oatmeal milk and had a simple lunch.
In the afternoon, the sun shone on the sea, making it sparkle. The adult beastmen were busy casting fishing nets on the shore. The females looked lovingly at their cubs who were barely walking steadily. Three or five females gathered together to chat and laugh, with all kinds of food and drinks in their hands that they had bought at the food street.
The scene is peaceful and tranquil.
This kind of weather and temperature is also Mu Qingqing's favorite. It is neither cold nor hot, and the slight breeze can dispel the dampness in the house.
After a while, Mu Qingqing leaned on Mo Xiao and fell asleep again.
Two hours later, the sound of the kids laughing and playing woke Mu Qingqing up.
"What time is it?" she asked hoarsely, sitting up.
Mo Xiao glanced at the clock.
"Two thirty."
"I slept for so long again." Mu Qingqing stretched, revealing a small section of her white and tender belly.
Mo Xiao's eyes darkened immediately.
"Why are you guys back?" Mu Qingqing asked the sweaty kids.
They were holding their kettles and drinking from them. After they were satisfied, they wiped their mouths and then answered Mu Qingqing's questions.
"We have already finished setting up the venue. The teacher asked us to go home and have a rest. The event will start at 5pm."
Mu Qingqing waved her hand and said, "Then go upstairs and sleep for two hours. I'll call you then."
Yuer hugged the fourth child and waved his chubby little hands.
"Mother, you must remember to call us then."
The children were so excited that Mu Qingqing remembered Mo Yan's answer when she asked them yesterday why they wanted to hold the event in the evening.
"The teacher said that this activity is not only to test our physical fitness, but also to train our ability at night. The teacher said that the enemy will always choose to attack tribes and people in the dark, so we must adapt from the beginning, so that we can better protect Fuxi when we grow up!"
This brainwash-like speech seemed to make Mu Qingqing see someone familiar.
It was not until Mo Yan pointed out the teacher who was speaking while watching the game that Mu Qingqing had an expression of "as expected".
The teacher was the female they had rescued from the forest at the beginning. Her loyalty and love for Fuxi were extraordinary. Fuxi had almost become the female's belief, which often made Mu Qingqing feel exaggerated.
The food street was brightly lit at night, and some shops were closed because they all went to watch their kids' games.
Xilan also closed the shop and looked at her baby elephant with worry.
The baby elephant once had a problem with his brain. Although it has been cured now, Xilan subconsciously feels that the baby elephant is still no different from before, so she has never let the baby elephant go to class.
You have to know that before Mu Qingqing appeared, the kids grew up with their parents and there was never any such thing as classes.
Last time, she happened to meet Mu Qingqing, and Mu Qingqing suggested sending the baby elephant to school. Although Xilan was hesitant, she had to send the baby elephant to school for Mu Qingqing's sake.
Later, she would ask the little elephant almost every day what he was learning in the classroom and whether anyone bullied him. Although the little elephant said no, Xilan always had doubts.
The illness of the baby elephant was a huge blow to Xilan, and she couldn't get over it for a long time.
After hearing the content of this competition, Xilan demanded that the little elephant must participate. She could hardly stand, and hurriedly pulled Xiang Gang to ask him to find Mu Qingqing, saying that the little elephant would not participate in the competition.
I hope Mu Qingqing can talk to the teacher.
Xiang Gang rejected her for the first time.
"Alan, do you really understand Qiqi? He has grown up. He is no longer the little kid you need to take care of. You don't want him to go to school. Have you ever thought about whether we can protect him for a while or for a lifetime? The Orc Continent is full of dangers. Even the Beast City, which you think is the safest, has such a terrible thing happened, right?"
"I agree with the teacher's approach. We should train the little ones' physical fitness. Even if they encounter danger in the future, they won't just wait for us adults to rescue them."
These words completely convinced Xilan, and she could no longer refute.
As the bell rang, all the kids lined up in front of their teachers.
Mu Qingqing roughly counted them.
There were about two hundred orc cubs in total, and far fewer females, less than a hundred.
This is already a very objective number.
Not yet of learning age.
