Chapter 16
(5.3)
She guessed that since this was a group of people living together, then this young girl who obviously looked a little different from the others most likely had a higher status. Besides, she had this kind of body, compared to the indigence of this savage group, or should she say indigenous group, her plumpness was probably admired and welcomed. In other words, she probably had the status of an honored beauty in this group.
The young girl arrived in front of the man, her eyes were flashing with excitement as her mouth said a series of quick words.
Then, Mu Qing noticed that her eyes stopped and stared fixedly at the snakeskin around his neck, revealing a strange light. Just like how Audrey Hepburn looked at the jewels inside Tiffany’s windows.
Mu Qing guessed that she wanted to use this piece of snakeskin to make herself a skin skirt.
But that man did not give it to her, she was unsure of what he said, but the young girl’s mouth somewhat curled up a little.
At this time, a man who looked about fifty years old of age, walked over.
This man was also wearing a feather crown on his head, of course, it was not as gorgeous as the girl’s, it was just a crown with short and grey feathers.
The surrounding people seemed to be very respectful of him, when they saw him coming, they immediately gave way to him.
Only that young girl remained stubbornly still, her eyes were still fixed on Li Mang.
Li Mang did not move.
The man with the feathered crown seemed to be helpless with the girl. He frowned and said several words. The young girl, seemingly aggrieved, only then turned her head, and ran away.
Mu Qing made another guess, the man with the feather crown on his head was probably the chief here, and the young girl, judging from the look of the two, was most likely his daughter.
The feather crown was probably a symbol of power. At least, Mu Qing did not see anyone else wearing one on their heads.
Li Mang showed his prey to the chief, including the snake head wrapped in leaves.
Mu Qing noticed that he did not hand over her backpack.
The chief looked very satisfied, he nodded his head and said something, the crowd cheered and one after another grabbed the prey and carried it away.
He probably told everyone to take their share?
Mu Qing, who was secretly observing, suddenly froze. That man, Li Mang, turned his head in her direction, he seemed to have hesitated for an instant before pointing at her and saying something to the chief.
What Mu Qing was worried about happened.
The chief walked up to her, walked around her, then extended his hands out to her chest and buttocks, which he squeezed heavily. The somewhat astonished expression he first had disappeared, and he now looked very satisfied, he started to laugh, with a grin. Mu Qing saw his revealed black teeth, as well as the sagging skin on his face turning wrinkled because of that laugh.
That man called Li Mang had probably just offered her to the chief as a good prey.
Mu Qing raised her eyes to look at Li Mang.
He had the sunset on his back, and Mu Qing could not see his face clearly.
But she knew that her own face must have looked very ugly at this moment.
(6.1)
Mu Qing was led away by a tall-sized woman, passing by the group living place, she walked towards the forest, under the gaze of the crowd.
When she passed by Li Mang, she stopped and stood there, staring at him fiercely.
He also looked at her, but not the slightest sign of emotional fluctuations could be found on his face.
.
Mu Qing suddenly felt somewhat dejected.
She was originally his captive, she fell into that trap, which was quite likely one that he had dug himself. He was far more interested in what was in her backpack than in her, this prey, so he hid the backpack secretly and gave her to the chief.
From his standpoint, this logic was not wrong at all. She could not ask him to let go of his prey.
As she thought so, Mu Qing finally withdrew her gaze and brushed past him.
