The vicious female Ye Youcha, who is in Shura Field every day

Chapter 191 Apprentice
"Walk slowly, be careful of the baby in your belly."

Qingzhu caught up with Su Xiyue in a few steps and supported her lower back, afraid that she would fall.

The two turned a corner and soon arrived at the western district where the orcs lived.

The living conditions in the western district are very diverse; some people live in caves, while others are crammed into thatched huts.

It's called a thatched hut, but it's really just a frame made of a few tree trunks, with a thick layer of dry grass on top, and it's leaning precariously.

Such thatched huts are extremely poorly heated, leaking air from all sides, and a heavy snowfall is enough to cause them to collapse.

A fishy, ​​foul smell permeated the air.

The surrounding environment is terrible; people urinate and defecate almost anywhere.

You might accidentally step in poop.

Su Xiyue tiptoed carefully through the "landmines" scattered on the ground.

She pinched her nose and asked Qingzhu beside her, "Isn't anyone in charge here? Why don't they dig a latrine?"

Qingzhu kicked away the dried-out unidentified object at her feet. "The orcs can't even get into the hunting party, so who cares if they live or die?"

She understood immediately. Orcs had no hunting ability, so the tribe naturally didn't bother with them and just left them there to fend for themselves.

Of course, some of the orcs' brothers or offspring who unfortunately failed to transform into human form and ended up living in the West District would occasionally receive some financial assistance from their families.

For example, after her third uncle's son failed to transform into human form, he moved to the West District.

Her third uncle even dug a cave for her and would occasionally send over meat and animal hides. She heard that they were doing alright.

Just then, a dozen orc boys suddenly sprang out of the bushes.

Some had wolf ears, some had tails, and some had wolf paws showing.

There's an even more outrageous one: the upper body is human, the lower body is wolf, and when it runs, it looks like a moving werewolf specimen.

Qingzhu frowned and quickly moved her aside, afraid that the little wolf cubs might accidentally bump into Yue'er.

The dozen or so orc boys realized they had frightened someone and quickly stopped.

They then knelt down in front of the two men.

To be precise, he knelt before Su Xiyue.

Su Xiyue was stunned for a moment, and instinctively took two steps back, almost stepping on a pile of fresh wolf poop in the grass behind her.

Fortunately, it was just a little bit short.

She didn't notice what was behind her, and frowned as she looked at the dozen or so half-orc boys in front of her. "What are you doing?"

"Miss... Miss!"

The wolf-eared boy leading the group nervously wrung his hands. "We heard you're going to choose apprentices?"

She knew immediately that her father had sent someone to deliver the message.

She gave a soft "hmm" and squinted at them: "Raise your hand if you can mold clay."

"Shh-"

All the orcs raised their claws, and one of them, in his excitement, even ripped off the animal skin skirt of his companion.

Qingzhu coldly covered Su Xiyue's eyes: "You're not allowed to look."

"I was looking at their hands!"

She parted Qingzhu's fingers and pointed to the wolf-eared boy with the steadyest hand, "Go to the river and dig up some clay, make a bowl for me to see. If you don't recognize clay, go look over at the kiln; there's a pile of clay there."

The wolf-eared boy who was pointed at excitedly wagged his tail wildly, "Miss, I know clay. Last time when you were making pottery by the river, I even secretly followed along and learned from you."

After saying that, he rushed towards the riverbank, and in his excitement, he almost tripped over his own clumsy footing.

Fortunately, he managed to regain his footing in time.

Qingzhu chuckled softly, "This little rascal is quite clever."

The other orc boys panicked when they saw this.

One of the boys, who had a wolf's tail showing, suddenly pounced on Su Xiyue and hugged her leg, saying, "Please choose me, Miss. I can go three days without sleeping, and my hands are the steadyest."

"release."

Qingzhu's face darkened. She grabbed the boy by the scruff of his neck and flung him away. Her emerald eyes flashed with a cold light. "Touch her again and I'll break your legs."

Just then, a dusty figure suddenly walked over from not far away.

The newcomer had wolf ears and his face was still covered with lingering silver-gray fur.

It was Su Yang, the son of Su Xiyue's third uncle, holding a crooked mud bowl in his hands, which was still half-dried.

Last night, my father told him that my cousin was going to select a few skilled apprentices.

He spent the whole night kneading mud by the river, and the crooked mud bowl in his hand is the result of that night's work.

"Cousin... I sculpted it all night, but it's not good."

Su Yang stopped, holding the clay bowl, and looked at Su Xiyue, saying awkwardly.

When Su Xiyue heard him call her cousin, she knew that this half-beast boy was the child from her third uncle's family who had failed to transform into human form.

The two are actually cousins.

"Let my sister see it."

She reached out and took the clay bowl from Su Yang's hand, examining it closely. Although the bowl was crooked in shape, the walls were of uniform thickness, and he had even scratched patterns into the edges with his claws.

Her eyes brightened slightly as she looked at Su Yang with surprise. This kid had actually mastered the art of decoration without a teacher; that was quite impressive.

My fingertips could feel the damp clay remaining at the bottom of the bowl.

She turned the bowl over and, in the morning light, saw several claw marks of varying depths on the inside, like marks left by the boy when he repeatedly adjusted the thickness.

"This thickness."

She lightly tapped the bowl with her finger, and the clay body made a dull sound. "If it were just two inches thinner, it would be ready to go into the kiln."

A blush rose on Su Yang's dusty face, and she subconsciously hid her muddy hands behind her back, afraid that her cousin would see her disheveled appearance.

"You've done a pretty good job. Go to the kiln tomorrow."

Su Xiyue handed the clay bowl back to him and chuckled.

"Don't worry, cousin, I will definitely study hard."

Su Yang's eyes shone brightly, and he looked very excited.

Just then, the orc boy who had gone to dig clay by the river ran back.

He was holding a large lump of wet mud in his arms, his hands and feet still dripping wet.

Although the clay bowls he made were regularly shaped, the bottoms were as thick as a pancake.

Su Xiyue glanced at it and couldn't help but laugh out loud: "If this bowl can stay intact after being air-dried, it's not bad."

Seeing the other person looking at her nervously, she smiled faintly, "Alright, you can come with Su Yang tomorrow too."

She just finished speaking.

Suddenly, a cheerful voice from the system echoed in his mind: "Host, there's new information about Chu Youyou. Do you want me to show it to you?"

She paused slightly, glanced around, and silently told the system, "I'll look at it again when I get back to the cave."

They quickly dismissed the orc boys and hurriedly left the West District with Qingzhu.

After returning to the cave, she sent Qingzhu away, saying she was a little tired and needed to rest.

Qingzhu had just left.

Su Xiyue couldn't wait to have the system project Chu Youyou's video onto her screen.

As the image was projected, a transparent screen slowly appeared in front of her, just like watching a movie.

Inside a rather unpretentious side hall in Beast King City.

Chu Youyou was grinning at a basin of water, looking just like a groundhog with two missing front teeth.

Especially when she laughs.

"System, you've tricked me!"

Chu Youyou screamed in her mind, "Bai Ye thinks I'm ugly now and refuses to see me at all."

Su Xiyue stared at the scene before her. She couldn't hear Chu Youyou's conversation with that rogue plugin because it was happening in her mind.

All she could see was Chu Youyou's distorted face and her menacing, clawing expression.

Because she had the system, she could roughly guess some of it.

Eavesdropping would ruin the experience.

"Tongtong, can you steal the conversation between Chu Youyou and that rogue plugin?"

Su Xiyue said to the system in her mind.

The system chuckled slyly: "Don't worry, host, I just cracked the voice channel of the rogue plugin!"

The words had barely left her lips when Chu Youyou's furious voice exploded in Su Xiyue's mind:

"Bai Ye, that damn germaphobic man."

Chu Youyou, in a fit of rage, overturned the basin of water in front of her, spilling water all over the floor. "The way he smeared his face with excrement last time wasn't any better. It was all over Beast King City, and countless people were laughing at him behind his back. I didn't even find him disgusting, but he dares to find me disgusting? He deserves to die."

The rogue plugin's cold voice announced: "Host has been detected insulting the mission target. One electric shock penalty will be imposed."

"Fuck-"

Chu Youyou suddenly convulsed like an electrocuted frog, her hair standing on end like a bird's nest.

Su Xiyue stared at the screen in front of her, clutching her stomach and laughing so hard she was almost convulsing.

"Hahaha, this is hilarious! This rogue plugin actually has some principles, huh?"

In the scene, Chu Youyou, sporting an afro, gets up and exhales a puff of black smoke.

Touching her scorched bangs, she almost cried: "I was a famous pastry chef before I transmigrated, and now I have to please a caveman who has never even seen a toilet!"

Her eyes suddenly lit up, "I don't have an oven. But I can make tiramisu!"

She stumbled to her feet and rummaged through the ingredients, mumbling, "If we don't have coffee powder, we'll use ground bitter tree root instead; if we don't have cheese, we'll use fermented goat milk paste; and for ladyfingers, we'll use honey-baked biscuits!"

The rogue system coldly reminded: "Host's current appearance score -50 points. It is recommended to tidy up your appearance first."

"Shut up!"

Chu Youyou scratched her frizzy hair. "That germaphobe Bai Ye won't even let me in the door now. What good is being handsome? I'm going to lure him over with the smell of delicious food. Humph, I'll make him drool."
