Chapter 139 Throbbing
Sure enough, bad news came in the evening. The females seemed to have been infected with an infectious disease that was spreading from one another and becoming increasingly serious. Even the males who went in to take care of them were not spared from the infection.
The people around the patriarch brought transparent crystals and built a transparent barrier around the shed.
Zhou Manman looked at the barrier that was shining with light and found it more and more magical.
Since ancient times, floods have been associated with plagues. If she guessed correctly, these females should have been infected with the plague. Although she knew it was a plague, she knew nothing about medical skills and could not save them at all.
The males were greatly shocked. The males have always had very good physical fitness. Not to mention colds and fevers, even if they injured their bones and muscles, they could recover by just resting.
This time, the females' disease actually infected them as well.
After knowing that the disease was contagious, Qing Lingyu did not allow any males to come out.
Despite his best efforts, the females continued to die.
The atmosphere in the tribe was very quiet.
Female corpses were constantly being carried out and burned.
The orcs could no longer bear it and took the initiative to tell their leader that they were willing to leave.
When the clan leader announced this, Zhou Manman was secretly feeding Anlina something he had taken out of the space, and only told her that he had secretly cooked it.
Anlina didn't suspect anything and ate with her mouth full of oil. Looking at Zhou Manman's touched face, she felt that Manman was so nice that he actually made delicious food for her.
Hearing this suddenly, Zhou Manman looked up in surprise, and the maltose in his hand fell to the ground.
Anlina picked it up very quickly and blew it, "What are you doing, Manman?"
We have so little to eat now, so we can’t waste it. Besides, didn’t Manman say that it’s okay to pick up food within three seconds if it falls on the ground?
Anlina blew away the dirt on the malt sugar and then looked at Zhou Manman.
I found that she was absent-minded.
"What's wrong, Manman?"
"I'm leaving..."
"Yes, I'm finally leaving!" Anlina was very happy. She was finally leaving. God knows she was worried every day that she would be infected with the disease. Now she was finally leaving.
"But……"
Zhou Manman seemed to want to say something but stopped herself.
"What's wrong? Are you troubled by something? Maybe I can help."
"The hunting team hasn't returned yet..."
Anlina waved her hand nonchalantly, "You don't understand, Manman. We have to protect ourselves first. Only when we are alive will we have time to think about what to do next, right?"
Zhou Manman lowered her eyes, not very willing to leave. She had a space with many things in it, and those things would be enough for her to use for a long time.
Seeing her like this, Anlina thought for a while, then widened her eyes in disbelief, "You're not leaving, are you, Manman?!"
Zhou Manman nodded slowly and firmly.
"No, what are you going to do!"
An Lina was so frightened that her voice instantly increased. After the male outside asked her about it, she lowered her voice and said that she was okay, but she walked to Zhou Manman and held her with both hands.
"Are you okay, Manman? You don't want to live anymore."
"But they haven't come back yet. The hunting team... Xiaoya is inside, and your beast husband is also inside. I thought you thought the same as I did."
"No, Manman, you can't think like that. After all, they are males, but we are females! It will be difficult for us to survive if we stay here!"
As if trying to convince her, Alina exerted her strength and shook her slightly.
"I asked Yuan, and they will be back in half a month at most..."
An Lina couldn't stand it anymore. She took a long breath to calm herself down, but she didn't expect Zhou Manman to continue, "I thought you treated all your beastly husbands the same, but you obviously like Jun more, so do you not care about Sheng?"
"Zhou Manman!"
Zhou Manman paused, feeling a little scared when she saw Anlina getting angry.
Anlina tapped her head in frustration, "Why, it's only been a short time and you've already forgotten the hurt Xiao Mi caused you. Now you're waiting for him here. Who told me before that you didn't like him? Now, it's clear that you value him more than Lin!"
"You only thought about waiting for Xiao Mi here, but have you ever thought about Lin? He takes care of you day and night, fearing that you would get hurt. He has never been attentive to you. You said that I favor Jun, but what about you? Do you turn a blind eye to Lin's kindness to you?"
"Of course I know that Lin is good to me, and I like him very much..." How could she not like Lin!
Anlina sneered, "What you call love is dragging him here to wait for Xiao Mi. Have you ever thought about how dangerous it would be if Xiao Mi didn't come back and Lin took you away alone? Is that how you like him?"
Zhou Manman couldn't help but take a step back after hearing what An Lina said.
There was some disbelief on his face.
After a while, some annoyance surfaced.
She opened the curtain and ran out, and Jun looked at them both worriedly.
"Do you want me to follow Manman?"
"No need, Manman went back to look in that direction... Oh, forget it, you can go with him and come back when you meet Yuan or Lin."
Jun nodded and followed Zhou Manman from a distance.
Alina watched their figures gradually disappear, sighed, and went into the house.
She knew that Sheng was still outside, but hunting was a dangerous activity, so who knew if he could return safely?
Anlina stroked her slightly sour heart, raised her head slightly, and thought about Zhou Manman's appearance just now.
Finally, she knew what was different about them. To her, her beastly husband would treat her very well, so she didn't have to invest a lot of affection in them. They would still treat her well. Without them, there would be others. In short, they were replaceable.
But for Manman, Anlina recalled the shock and sadness in her eyes.
It seems that it is not possible.
It’s all like this, which is both good and bad.
"Full?"
Lin walked a few steps to the little female and saw that her eyes were red from crying. She looked so pitiful.
"What's wrong, Manman?"
He was so anxious that he led her to sit down, raised his hand and gently stroked the tears on her face, his eyes full of heartache, "What are you talking about, Manman, is it... is it that my cold attitude towards you a few days ago made you sad, I, I apologize to you, Manman, I will never..."
Before Lin could finish his words, Zhou Manman rushed into his arms like a little beast.
Her voice was choked up.
"I'm sorry Lin... wuwu..."
Lin's body stiffened for a moment. What did Manman do?
Could it be that he is with Yuan?
But didn’t Manman tell him to go find Anlina?
Lin thought for a while, and suddenly realized that he had no hint.
He breathed a sigh of relief and felt somewhat fortunate.
Manman really likes him the most now. He didn't go out to play with Yuan when he was angry, although Manman mistakenly thought that Yuan was here every day, so he was angry.
"It's okay, Manman. I'm still here even if the sky falls."
Zhou Manman looked at Lin's serious expression and her heart suddenly began to beat fast.
