Chapter 138 Getting ready to leave
The patriarch didn't say anything even more serious.
"We'll leave after a few days of rest and adjustment."
As soon as the chieftain finished speaking, the orcs below began to waile.
"No, Chief, how can we leave here?"
"We are still here, with fire and food, but this is the case. If we encounter something like this on the road, there will be nothing we can do to save us!"
"Yes, Chief. How many of us will die by then?"
……
No one has the experience of leaving, and most of them have the experience of going hunting.
However, although the hunting grounds were plains, water and trees were hard to find, which was not conducive to their survival.
Besides, this is the tribe on which they have relied for hundreds of years of survival. How can they give it up so easily?
Their words made the patriarch silent for a moment. It was indeed true. What they said made sense, but if they left here, there might be a glimmer of hope. If they stayed here, they would probably all be dragged to death.
The patriarch raised his head and saw the raindrops falling from the sky. The sky was as dark as night without a single light.
Their opposition voices are strong and there are few voices of support. Even if the patriarch strongly asks them to leave, trouble is bound to arise.
This matter can only be put aside for the time being.
But in the following days, the situation got worse.
Raw meat was running out, so they had no choice but to send people out every day to catch rabbits, birds and other food for the females to roast and eat.
However, these meats are far from being as tender and delicious as the specially preserved raw meat.
Not only is it hard to chew, it also tastes weird. How can the females who have always been pampered stand this? They all complain bitterly.
The tribe would distribute the roasted meat every day, and Zhou Manman would also eat a few bites, but more often, she would secretly take out the delicious food she had made previously from her space.
In this way, Zhou Manman felt a little more at ease.
Fortunately, Tarasha had asked her to prepare delicious food before, which attracted the females to take out various things for her and asked her to make some food for them.
At that time, they brought her all kinds of animals, such as piglets, fat pheasants, etc.
Zhou Manman spent the whole day thinking about food, wanting the females to feel that this thing was worth the money. Of course, she couldn't use the food given to them as experimental subjects. At the beginning, no matter whether she tasted good or not, she would eat it herself first. When she made too much of a lot of things, she put them into the space.
Over time, the space was filled with a lot of things she had made in the past.
Zhou Manman burped after eating and drinking. Thinking that Anlina was still eating the grilled meat in the tribe, he couldn't help feeling distressed.
She originally planned to bring some to Anlina, but Lin said that there were too many people at Anlina's place and she was worried about problems, so she would give them to her when there was a chance.
I had no choice but to agree.
"Have you finished eating, Manman?"
Zhou Manman nodded, and Lin immediately brought the bamboo tube that he had prepared long ago to her hand and carefully helped her clean the oil stains on her hands.
The long and thick eyelashes cast a light shadow.
Zhou Manman's heart suddenly softened.
Although Lin has regained his previous enthusiasm for him these days, as if his coldness had never happened, Zhou Manman is very sad.
That's why I've always been indifferent to him, wanting him to have a taste of what it's like.
But Lin didn't seem to be anything special. He took good care of her every day and there was no sign of anything wrong on his face. Zhou Manman was not a worm in his stomach. She didn't know what he was thinking when he acted like this, but she just wasn't very happy every day.
Lin finished washing and was about to go out to pour out the water.
Zhou Manman suddenly reached out and pressed her hand on his hair.
The soft touch under his hand made Zhou Manman narrow his eyes in comfort. Lin was a little surprised, and the movements of his hands seemed to be slow. He just stood there without taking the next step.
Zhou Manman gently pressed his head into her arms and said proudly, "Since you have been so nice to me these past few days, I will forgive you~"
Feeling the softness under his face, Lin's eyes darkened instantly and his voice became hoarse.
"Are you not angry anymore?"
Zhou Manman shook her head and said, "I'm not angry anymore." In fact, she had stopped being angry a long time ago when she saw him in such a mess that day.
Lin put the bamboo tube on the ground, suddenly circled the little female, and kissed the soft lips he had been longing for.
The attack was so fierce that Zhou Manman gradually lost the clarity in his eyes.
Lin stopped and Zhou Manman pouted slightly with a hint of dissatisfaction.
He put his head close to her ear and said in a lustful voice, "Manman is not angry anymore. But I am going to be angry."
"what?"
Zhou Manman looked at him in confusion, not yet figuring out what his words meant.
Lin reached out and gently rubbed her hair, and Zhou Manman immediately screamed and protected her hair.
Lin withdrew his hand and did not force it. He picked up the bamboo tube on the ground, lifted the curtain and walked out.
Zhou Manman immediately followed. Seeing the rain outside, she picked up a leaf from the side and followed Lin's steps.
"Why are you angry?"
Zhou Manman thought about it over and over again, but still had no idea what Lin was angry about.
Lin smiled slightly and said nothing, but moved slowly and took the leaf from her hand.
Zhou Manman's foot hasn't healed yet and she walks with a limp. She hasn't gone out for the past two days. Lin saw that her foot wasn't red anymore, so he thought she was healed.
Seeing this, he asked her to hold the bamboo tube and picked her up with one hand.
A smile flashed across Zhou Manman's eyes, and she stayed peacefully in his arms.
But the further she walked outside, the fainter the smile in her eyes became. In the past few days, more and more females had fallen ill, so the tribe leader had people build a sturdier shed outside with thin wooden frames, and then moved all the sick females here.
Now the scale here has expanded again.
When the two of them walked here, Qing Lingyu was suffering from a headache and came out to relax.
The curtain was opened, and a hot air mixed with a strong medicinal smell immediately came out.
Seeing Lin and the little female, he was a little stunned, but soon raised a light smile, "Where are you going?"
Zhou Manman raised the bamboo tube in her hand and said, "Let's go get some water."
"Go."
Zhou Manman looked inside, her eyes fixed on that place. After a while, she leaned close to Lin's ear and whispered, "I want to go in and see Lin."
Lin didn't think much about it. He nodded and turned around to walk towards Qing Lingyu.
Qing Lingyu knew why they came and refused them very straightforwardly. They were full of sickness. Even a male like him would feel so, let alone Zhou Manman. And because of his wood element talent, this kind of stimulation would only be more intense.
Zhou Manman got off Lin and walked to the witch doctor. She looked around and asked in a low voice, "Are their illnesses more serious?"
Qing Lingyu nodded slightly.
"Hey……"
Zhou Manman sighed lightly. She should have guessed it long ago. With the chieftain imposing martial law here, everyone's resistance to leaving was decreasing. She even heard two orcs who had been strongly opposed to leaving chatting with each other, saying that they hoped the chieftain would bring it up again and they would definitely not object.
