Chapter 145 News
They took a short break and adjusted themselves on the spot.
The mudslide stopped, and looking at the collapsed land below, an orc suggested that the chief go down to look for animal carcasses.
The patriarch thought about it and agreed.
The tribe quickly organized a team of people, and under everyone's expectant gaze, they walked downwards.
Zhou Manman was holding Lin's hand, with An Lina beside them. After a long while, Zhou Manman finally remembered to ask, "Where's Li? Why can't I see her?"
Alina suddenly became a little unnatural and hesitated for a while.
Zhou Manman widened his eyes in disbelief and looked at the scene below while suppressing his grief.
Anlina sighed, recalling the scene at that time. They were the first to leave, and nothing should have happened. It was just that Li's beast husband wanted to take as many things as possible, and was hit by the falling rocks. In order to save her beast husband, Li called for a stop and wanted to take him with her, but at that moment, the sand and stones in the sky submerged them.
A trace of sadness flashed across Anlina's eyes. Thinking of something, she warned: "Don't tell Yi yet. She has a good relationship with Li and she just gave birth to a baby. She can't be too emotional..."
"Li, when did it happen..."
Anlina's body froze, and it took her a long time to turn around.
Yi's face was pale, and she and her beastly husband each held two cubs.
Zhou Manman pulled Anlina.
Two lines of tears slid down Yi's face. She closed her eyes and tears burst out instantly.
She and Li grew up together. They would occasionally quarrel, but most of the time they were as close as one family.
Now that this has happened, how can she let it go?
A wave of dizziness came over Yi, and he could hardly stand.
Her beastly husband quickly supported her.
"Yi," Zhou Manman pursed her lips. She felt sad at the thought of the passing of such a vibrant life.
The witch doctor came over and saw that Yi had come out to get some fresh air. He stepped forward and said, "Didn't I tell you to stay in there?"
Yi's beastly husband nodded repeatedly and helped Yi back.
Anlina took the baby from Yi's hands and said, "Manman, I'll take Yi back. You be careful."
Qing Lingyu glanced at Lin's defensive eyes, said nothing and walked away.
Zhou Manman raised her eyes and looked at the devastation below, feeling indescribable sorrow in her heart.
They didn't know how long they would have to go...
Soon the beastmen came back with many unrecognizable animal carcasses and some bamboo tubes filled with water.
After a simple roasting, the food was delivered to the females.
Zhou Manman held Lin's hand tightly and walked back carefully step by step.
"Chief, we have been digging for a long time, but because the mudslide was so fierce, those things were washed away, and we don't know where they went. After a careful search, we can only find five bamboo tubes at most."
The patriarch put his hands behind his back and fell into deep thought. After a moment, he said, "Then let's continue searching."
After the man left, the clan leader noticed Zhou Manman standing beside him. He stretched out his hand and waved to her with a smile.
Zhou Manman subconsciously looked up at Lin.
"It's okay, Manman. The clan leader will be fine. I'll go with you."
I don’t know if it’s because the clan leader has always been the superior, but every time Zhou Manman talks to him, she always feels like she is talking to a strict class teacher.
Hearing Lin say this, I felt that I was making a big fuss.
Step forward.
The chief looked at the clean female and said to the orc next to him, "Look, there is only one male by Manman's side now, but he protects her so well."
After hearing this, Lin puffed out his chest with some pride.
Zhou Manman felt a little sad, and the feeling became even worse when he met the envious gazes of the females around him.
The males around who heard this immediately lowered their heads in discomfort, and felt extremely guilty when they looked at their dirty females.
The females were not unreasonable people and quickly tried to comfort him.
For a moment, the tribe became a little warmer.
It's much better than the tense atmosphere before.
The patriarch thought for a moment, waved his hand and took them to the side of the black box.
"Um, Manman, do you still have a fire starter? The one you gave me before."
The tribe has been walking for quite some time, and today is already the 28th day. Normally, a tinder should last for three months, but the weather is too humid. It was better to use charcoal before, but now they are escaping in such a hurry that all the charcoal has been lost. If they want to start a fire, they can only use a tinder to heat it up. If they continue like this, it will be gone in two days.
Zhou Manman lowered her head and became conflicted.
The clan leader saw this and thought she was gone, so he comforted her, "It's okay even if she's gone."
It’s not that Zhou Manman doesn’t have any, on the contrary, she has quite a few in her space.
But this kind of thing, once taken out, there will be a second time. Thinking of Lin Zai's careful instructions before leaving, Zhou Manman wanted to refuse, but when she thought of the pitiful females curled up, she felt sorry for them.
She looked up at Lin.
Lin's heart softened, he raised his big hand to rub her head, then looked up at the clan leader and said, "We still have a few, they are all in the bag. I didn't check it carefully, so I don't know how many are in it. Manman and I will go back and take a look first."
The patriarch nodded in agreement.
Lin took Manman back.
"Wow, Lin, how do you know what I'm struggling with?"
"Of course I know. But Manman, how many do you plan to give?"
Zhou Manman frowned and thought for a while, "Three." No more than that would work.
Lin nodded.
When they arrived at the place where they were resting, they pulled the bag out from under the lamb. There were many people around, but they were not in good spirits and no one paid attention to Zhou Manman's actions.
She reached into her bag, pretending to look for something, but actually took out four fire starters from the space. After thinking for a while, she took out some fruits.
Afterwards, he took the lamb and the bundle and walked to the chief. In front of many orcs, he opened the bundle and took out three tinderboxes.
Now that she has found the right path, no one should ask her about it again.
Zhou Manman watched Lin pack up his bag and prepare to say goodbye to the clan leader.
"Wait a minute, I'll give you some gadgets."
As the chieftain spoke, he grabbed something out from the black animal hide beside him.
Unable to see clearly what it was, Zhou Manman quickly reached out to take it.
Zhou Manman felt something lustrous in his hand and thought it was an energy stone. He was happy for a while, but then he felt it was not the case.
When I took my hand back, I saw that it was actually a very round pearl.
Each one is round and full, shining with beautiful light.
The clan leader gave her five in total, and Zhou Manman liked them very much.
After I got back, I kept playing with it and couldn't put it down.
"It's just a few beads. I'll find you a full set later."
"No," Zhou Manman shook her head, "these beads are very good."
It doesn't look like the pearls grown from ordinary clam shells. Thinking that the tribe leader is a female, Zhou Manman had some guesses in his mind.
