Shu Xin's mouth twitched, "After that... he'll be poisoned to death."
Da Zui: "..." It was all his fault.
Leite's murderous gaze fell upon Da Zui, who was busy preparing the antidote grass.
Da Zui quickly covered himself with his hands, blushing and stammering, "Leite, I really didn't mean anything else. I'm only a few years past adulthood, I really can't control myself..."
Leite said menacingly, "If you can't control it, then you don't need it!"
The dragon beast's pressure made Da Zui go limp. Da Zui wryly pursed his lips, unable to afford offending Leite.
The other males also felt a tightening in their buttocks. Many of them had also experienced erections, but fortunately, Leite hadn't seen them. Poor Da Zui was caught red-handed by Leite...
"Yue Yue, are you tired?" Went held Shu Yue's waist.
Speaking of being tired, Shu Yue couldn't help but yawn, "A little tired, but I'm hungry."
Went picked her up, "Then let's go back to eat."
Shu Yue nodded and waved to Shu Xin, "Sister, you've been busy all night, hurry back and rest!"
"Okay." Shu Xin tapped her waist, looking exhausted.
Leite finally noticed the female's pale complexion, "Xin'er, why do you look so unwell?"
Hu Sha handed her backpack to Leite and said, "The witch doctor has been asleep all night, and it was all thanks to Xin'er. Xin'er has been busy until now, and her body might not be able to take it. Hurry back and rest."
Leite's heart ached upon hearing this. He slung the backpack over his shoulder, picked up the empty wooden jar, and carried Shu Xin away.
The beastmen who hadn't had their wounds treated yet desperately signaled to Hu Sha, as if to say, "Shu Xin is gone, what about us!"
Hu Sha said, "Shu Xin is exhausted from being busy all night. Females have less stamina. And the witch doctor is here, the witch doctor will heal you."
Witch Doctor: "..."
Other injured beastmen: "..." They repented, they actually didn't want the witch doctor to heal them, they were too wrong!
Fortunately, Shu Xin had treated the more serious injuries first. The remaining people would recover in a few days with the hemostatic grass. So far, there had been no deaths among the sent-in injured.
Those who couldn't be sent in in time had died outside.
The beast tide had not ended, this was only the first wave. The beasts also needed to rest. They usually attacked at night and disappeared during the day.
An hour later, the smell of roasted meat wafted from the tribe. The tribesmen ate with blank faces, only occasionally discussing the ferocious beasts, but no other conversation.
They couldn't lighten their moods at all. They had won the first round, but they had also lost many tribesmen. Among the deceased were young males who had just reached adulthood, as well as those with families. Their females and cubs were silently crying, stuffing roasted meat into their mouths mixed with tears.
Baron wasn't hungry. He squatted alone on top of the cave, seemingly looking at something. If only he had a cigarette, it would relieve his current emotions.
Inside the cave.
Shu Yue almost fell asleep while eating the roasted meat. Went, worried she might choke, said, "Yue Yue, why don't you sleep for a while? Eat after you wake up."
"Then you all eat slowly, I'll go catch up on some sleep." Shu Yue was too tired to resist. She swallowed the last bite of meat, washed her hands, and went to bed.
Leite also felt sorry for his female, "Xin'er, are you foolish? Busy all night by yourself?"
Shu Xin, having dealt with bloody wounds all night, had a poor appetite. She yawned after a few bites, looking very tired.
She rubbed her temples, "The witch doctor was unconscious, if I didn't save them, several tribesmen would have died. Human lives are more important."
Leite couldn't refute her words. If he knew medicine, he would have treated everyone before resting.
"You've worked hard, Xin'er." He sighed.
Shu Xin forced herself to eat a few more bites, then put down her chopsticks and said, "I'll eat more after I wake up. I'm going to sleep for a while."
A day in the beast world is equivalent to two days in Huaxia. It only seemed like busy work from the latter half of the night until dawn, but in reality, the time had to be doubled. Huaxia people's physical strength couldn't keep up.
And it was a protracted battle, so they had to seize the time to rest.
The two females slept. Went wrapped up the meat and put it away. He and Leite went out together, not wanting to disturb the two sleeping.
Went stayed in the courtyard to guard them, while Leite went to find Hu Sha and the others to ask how his female had saved people last night.
He searched for a long time but couldn't find them. Upon asking, he learned that they had gone to deliver food to the injured beastmen.
The injured could not be moved back and forth. The witch doctor treated wounds slowly, slower than usual. Due to her cold, her gaze was sometimes unfocused.
When Shu Xin was present, she didn't treat them properly. Even after Shu Xin left, she remained the same. The injured were anxious themselves but dared not show it.
Not only did they run out of ferocious beast bone powder, but they didn't even clean the wounds, just throwing them a few pieces of hemostatic grass and calling it treatment.
The beastmen smiled bitterly, what was the difference between this and letting them heal themselves?
They heard that the tribesmen had eaten ferocious beast meat in the morning. With their current recovery speed, even if they killed another ferocious beast, they wouldn't get to eat it...
Alas!
It was useless to be anxious.
Leite entered the cave to find Hu Sha, but was coincidentally stopped by Yi Yi, "Leite, where is Shu Xin? My mother's cold hasn't gotten better yet, let her do that acupuncture again."
It was just sticking needles, why call it acupuncture, it sounded so awkward!
Leite felt uncomfortable hearing her tone. When had Yi Yi become so arrogant?
"Xin'er is exhausted and is resting now. She'll do acupuncture for the witch doctor after she wakes up."
Yi Yi frowned displeasedly, "My mother is still treating the tribesmen, why did she go to sleep?"
Upon hearing this, Leite's eyes sharpened, "When the witch doctor was unconscious last night, it was Xin'er who was busy. Have you forgotten?!"
"Yi Yi, you also know medicine, why haven't I seen you helping to save the tribesmen?"
The stern tone stunned Yi Yi. She subconsciously replied, "I was taking care of my mother."
"The witch doctor was sleeping soundly, what care does she need!" Leite didn't want to argue with a female, but she insisted on bullying his Xin'er!
Yi Yi's eyes turned red from being scolded, "Leite, what do you mean by yelling at me!"
The tribesmen heard the argument and looked over.
The witch doctor coughed a few times and sternly called Yi Yi back, "Yi Yi, come here. Mother is fine. Shu Xin is tired from saving the tribesmen, and mother's illness is not urgent."
Yi Yi bit her lip and unwillingly returned to the witch doctor's side. Others simply thought Yi Yi was too concerned about her mother's health and didn't think much of it.
Leite, however, frowned deeper as he looked at the witch doctor and her daughter.
...
Shu Xin and Shu Yue slept for the entire afternoon, as if they had completely forgotten about the patients in the cave.
The witch doctor, who had a severe cold, couldn't hold on after eating the roasted meat at noon and slept soundly for the entire afternoon.
The injured were handled by Lan Hua and Hu Sha. They had new leg bone powder, which was more effective than the one in Went's cave. The two of them cooperated, learning from Shu Xin to clean the wounds, and finally managed to settle the injured.
In the evening, the females and cubs returned to the cave. Compared to last night, there were more animal skins on the ground in the cave tonight, clearly intended for sleeping inside.
Not everyone could go back and sleep soundly.
