Chapter 254: As a stray animal, how could I feel inferior?
"why?"
The scorpion beast smiled, climbed off the female, grabbed her hair and dragged her up.
The violent look made me feel a little uncomfortable, after all, Kru had never treated my mother like this before.
He looked at me and made the female kneel in front of him. He forced her to raise her head like a devil and used his rough big hands to push the hair on the female's cheek to the side.
He smiled and said, "Look at her, she can only cry. Why is she crying? Because she was robbed by us, Ah Xing. If stray beasts want females, they can only rob them."
"Since it was snatched by the Scorpion Beasts, it belongs to them. You can do whatever you want with them. Even if you are nice to them, they won't appreciate it. So why should you be nice to them?"
"Ah Xing! It's very hard to snatch females. Many scorpion beasts may even die. If you let the females go, you'll be betraying the entire scorpion beast group."
This scorpion beast was afraid that I didn’t understand, so he explained it in great detail.
At that moment, I realized that these females in the scorpion group were different from my mother. They were not here voluntarily.
But in a sense, he was right. Normal females would not accept stray animals.
If you want a female, you either have to rob her or cheat like Kru did.
The dying female saw me remaining silent and a hint of despair flashed across her eyes.
I feel sympathy for her and pity her and want to let these poor females go. They shouldn't be treated like this.
But there's nothing I can do.
It's not just because I was very weak at that time, there was another very important reason.
That is, if I become powerful one day and rescue these females, what should I do with the reproduction of stray animals?
This is not something I can do alone. Kru said that this world is big, there are many stray beasts, and even the legendary beast gods have never been able to control them.
This world seems to have some kind of rules.
No one can break the rules.
I looked at the female in front of me who was getting closer and closer to death, and asked nonchalantly: "Do you hate stray animals?"
The female bit her lower lip and said nothing, but I could clearly see the disgust flashing in her eyes.
How ironic!
Hates stray beasts, but asks one for help.
I flicked my tail, looked at the scorpion beast beside me and said, "Wait until she dies, can you give it to me?"
The scorpion beast narrowed its eyes, a teasing smile flashed across its eyes, "Axing! You are so young, and you want to eat the female? You are more to my liking than Kru."
Eat?
I had no intention of eating her.
But I didn't say anything at the time. I just stared at the scorpion beast. The next moment he smiled and said, "Female meat is much more tender than wild beast meat. If you want it, you can exchange it with beast crystals. Three white beast crystals!"
I don't have beast crystals, but after hearing what the scorpion beast said, I understood that the dead females would be eaten by stray beasts.
Disgusting.
I wanted to leave, so I took one last look at the female and said, "I can't save you, but after you die, I can buy you. Are you willing?"
I wanted to bury her, just as Crewe had buried my people.
The female's tears kept falling from the corners of her eyes. She didn't answer me, but just turned her head to the side and cried silently.
I walked out of the female cave silently, and just at that moment Kru came to catch me.
He grabbed my tail, picked me up and walked out. I cursed him in a low voice in dissatisfaction, and his face turned very bad.
It was even worse when I heard that scorpion beast bragging about me.
He took me away from the scorpion group and walked very far away. Well, I was beaten and my whole body was in pain, the kind of pain that felt like death.
"You are my only cub. Do you think what the scorpion group did is right?" Kru asked me with a cold face.
Even though I was in pain at the time, I still stiffened my neck and said:
"Kru! Do you think I won't know if you keep me blind? I will grow up and know that I am a stray beast! I will also know that normal females will not accept a stray beast!"
Kru was choked by my words, and he retorted with a red face: "Why not? Didn't Gula accept me?"
"Mom is just stupid." I wagged my tail.
My words seemed to hurt Keru. He sat next to me and stuffed a white animal crystal into my mouth without saying a word.
When the pain in my body was no longer so severe, I said casually, "Kru, I think each tribe has its own way of survival. You can't change them. Becoming the king of the scorpion beast group won't change them."
"I don't like the way they treat females. I won't be like them, but I won't be like you either. If no female is willing to accept stray animals, then I want to be free for the rest of my life."
Kelu narrowed his eyes and looked at me sideways. He said silently: "There are also females who accept stray animals. Just pursue them with all your heart."
"Put aside your dignity?" I looked at Kru jokingly.
The veins on Kru's forehead jumped, and after a long while, he finally squeezed out a sentence: "I don't want you to feel inferior because you are a stray beast, and I don't want you to be like those scorpion beasts."
How could that be? I am a stray animal, how could I have low self-esteem?
Returning to the cave with Amu Kru again, I watched them hugging and kissing each other, and there was no ripple in my heart anymore.
Females hate stray animals. I don't want to cheat a female like Kru did, but I also don't want to snatch a female who won't like me.
Besides, I don’t think I have such a big need.
As time passed, I almost forgot how many winter seasons I had lived through, maybe fifteen?
Everyday life is very boring. I really want to grow up quickly so that I can live on my own after awakening the beast ring.
Actually it’s possible now, but my mother is worried.
So I could only accompany her. On this day, purple light appeared on Kru's blue beast ring, which was a sign of entering the purple ring.
I was very happy in my heart, because after he completely entered the Purple Ring, he would take my mother to any corner of the world.
"Gula, it will be soon. Once I enter the purple ring, I will give you all the freedom you want, okay?" Kru promised.
But mother was not so happy. She just glanced at Kru calmly that day and said in a low voice:
"But I've been waiting for many years. Ah Xing is almost an adult, more than a dozen winter seasons. When I met you, Kelu, you had a blue ring, but now you are just glowing purple. How long do I have to wait?"
When mother raised her head again, her face was covered with tears.
I opened my mouth and felt a little sympathy for my mother. After all, she had always talked about freedom since I was a child.
She ran away from the tribe because she wanted freedom, but she lived in a small cave for many cold seasons.
Kelu pursed his lips, hesitating and struggling for a long time, and finally made up his mind and said: "Gula, I plan to go to the Misty Forest. You wait for me here, and I will take you away when I come back."
My mother is very stupid. She doesn't know that going to the Misty Forest is a life-threatening journey. There may not be many males in the weak mole tribe who dare to enter the Misty Forest.
But neither Kru nor I told her. Kru just handed her to me and left.
