Inside the cave.

Hu Ke pursed his lips and turned the barbecue. He hesitated for a while before asking, "Nanyue, what happened when Knox came to the cave yesterday? He seemed to treat you a little differently."

At this moment, Nan Yue was standing upside down on the stone wall of the cave, her cheeks flushed red. After hearing these words, she somersaulted and ended her handstand.

He walked forward and hugged Hu Ke's waist and abdomen.

"Is the little fox jealous?"

"Yeah." Hu Ke did not refute.

Nan Yue raised an eyebrow and said, "Nothing, I just found that the bow and arrow made by the little fox is very lethal, so I wanted to try it out. I didn't expect to break it, so I guess I feel guilty!"

Hu Ke nodded, turned around and held Nan Yue on his lap, and whispered:

"Nanyue, if there are no males you like in the Fox Tribe, I will take you to another tribe after the winter season."

He was the only female with him, and he was a little worried about whether something might happen to her when he went out hunting.

"Okay! But there are more and more things in the cave, and I'm reluctant to throw them away."

Nan Yue hugged Hu Ke's neck tightly, "Huke, I also want to go to the Misty Forest. How about we stay on the outskirts? I heard that the meat of fierce beasts is much tastier than that of wild beasts, and the more beast crystals you have, the faster you will break through."

When the female's gentle voice sounded, Hu Ke knew that she must have not held her fart well.

As expected, the little female actually wanted to go to the Misty Forest!

Even most green ring orcs, including blue ring orcs, have to form a team to enter the Misty Forest.

Did the little female overestimate herself or overestimate him?

Hu Ke narrowed his eyes and said seriously: "The Misty Forest is a place of death. Nanyue, even if you kill me, I will not agree to this."

His little female is very strange. Other females all want more beautiful animal skins, more delicious food, and higher-level female animal crystals.

His little female actually wanted to go to the Misty Forest to hunt ferocious beasts for him to get beast crystals!

Should he be touched or helpless?

This was the second time Nanyue saw Hu Ke so serious. The first time was when she said she wanted to go outdoors.

But this time it was obviously more serious than the first time, and it seemed like there was no room for negotiation.

"Oh, okay."

This kind of thing can't be rushed, so let's take precautions first and then take our time and work our way around it.

Nan Yue's compromise made Hu Ke a little suspicious. It seemed that he had to keep an eye on the little female.

He was afraid that after Nan Yue hunted a black panther, he would overestimate his own strength and provoke the ferocious beast.

However, the thing we worried about still happened.

At night, the entire tribe was quiet, with only the occasional appearance of birds breaking the temporary tranquility.

Suddenly, Nan Yue felt a warm and wet tongue licking her cheek, and she whimpered.

"Stop it~ Fox."

Hu Ke seemed to have heard it as well. He suddenly opened his eyes, and his pair of light gray eyes glowed in the darkness.

"boom"!

With a sound, he pounced on the thing close to Nan Yue.

Nan Yue then opened her eyes, and realized belatedly that the person who had just licked her cheek was not Hu Ke, but a bear the size of a puppy!

She opened her eyes wide and touched her neck. If Hu Ke fell asleep any more, would her neck be bitten off by the bear?

"Hook..."

"Don't be afraid, I'm here."

Fox held the bear down with one paw, and brushed her arm with his fox tail as if to comfort her.

Damn it! This thing actually hides its smell, no wonder he didn't notice it!

At this moment, the bear under the claws showed moist eyes to Nanyue and whimpered continuously.

"It...seems to be that remnant beast."

Nan Yue was stunned, then she stood up and lit a fire. With the dim light, she was sure, "It's it! It's the crippled beast."

There was a fierce light in Hu Ke's eyes. Females generally would not approach crippled beasts. It might be that Nan Yue's last approach made it remember the smell!

"Woo~wu~"

The crippled beast's eyes were moist and full of pleading.

Nan Yue felt a little reluctant. Although it was a crippled beast, it was still an orc's child after all.

"Forget it, Fox, let it go. It's already very difficult for it to hide its scent and escape from the chains."

The remnant beast possesses the wisdom of an orc. Even such a small remnant beast probably knows that its end is to attract powerful ferocious beasts.

"No, it belongs to the tribe." Fox shook his head.

Nan Yue stepped forward and slowly approached the crippled beast with her hand. She was testing whether the crippled beast would hurt her. At the same time, she was also very careful, ready to withdraw her hand at any time.

"Be careful! Nanyue!" Hu Ke pressed the crippled beast's claws even harder.

But the next second, the crippled beast let out a painful whimper and rubbed its head against Nan Yue's hand.

Then, Fox relaxed.

"Can you understand what I'm saying?" Nan Yue asked the gray-brown bear.

The crippled beast blinked, thought for a moment, and nodded wildly.

Nan Yue smiled, "So what do you use to hide the scent?"

The crippled beast's limbs were flailing wildly, as if trying to break free from Fox's restraints, and it kept making babbling sounds from its mouth.

"Hook, let it go."

Fox hesitated for a moment, then loosened his claws and blocked her way.

The crippled beast got up from the ground, ran to the entrance of the cave, picked up a few blades of grass and placed them in front of Fox. Its meaty tail was wagging behind it, and it seemed very happy.

"You're quite smart. You actually know about stinking grass." Hu Ke lowered his head and took a look.

Stinky grass?

Nan Yue searched for the trace of this grass in her memory. Indeed, it was there. She herself recognized it. When her original self was fleeing, she rubbed her whole body with this grass so that she would not be targeted by wild beasts.

"Okay, don't come looking for us anymore. Now that you've escaped, get out of the tribe quickly and don't get caught."

She is not a saint. After all, she is a remnant of the tribe. Even if this remnant is loyal to her, there will be trouble.

She is not one to look for trouble.

Second, she would not tell the tribe. After all, it was the tribe’s own fault for not keeping a close eye on the crippled beast and letting it escape. If the crippled beast hadn’t come looking for her, she wouldn’t have known about it.

The tribe couldn't blame her.

Hu Ke frowned and hesitated. Nan Yue held his hand tightly and comforted him:

"There is no rule that says a remnant beast is born to attract vicious beasts. Since it has the ability, there is no need for us to block its path."

The crippled beast seemed to understand Nan Yue's words. It ran out quickly, picked up something and placed it at her feet, then quickly left the cave.

Nan Yue bent down and picked up what the cannibal gave her, which was a sweet fruit.

That is the rice of the animal world.

This crippled beast was quite interesting. She just moved a little closer to take a look at it, but she didn't expect that the little guy would give her a sweet fruit before leaving.

Nan Yue pursed her lips and smiled, put the sweet fruit into the wooden barrel for storing food, and then hugged Hu Ke's waist:

"Little fox, go to sleep?"

Fox: "You go to sleep, I'll be guarding the cave entrance."

I thought the tribe was safe, but it seems we have to keep watch no matter what the situation.

If this beast intends to kill Nan Yue tonight, the consequences will be disastrous.

Nan Yue naturally knew what Hu Ke was thinking, and did not try to persuade him. She just lay down on the animal skin mat and continued to sleep.

On the second day, when she thought the little beast had left the tribe, she unexpectedly found it hanging on a tree with wounds all over its body, surrounded by orcs.
