A guide to surviving in the world of beasts

Walking closer to take a look, it was indeed yellow mud. Not only was Su Ling's face no longer red, but her already pale face became even paler.

"What's wrong with you? You're injured so badly, why don't you bandage the wound? You even smear mud on it. Can't you see it's getting inflamed?" Su Ling looked up at the man's face and asked excitedly.

Because the man was very tall, definitely more than two meters tall, and Su Ling, who was only 1.68 meters tall, was only as tall as the man's shoulders, so she could only raise her head to speak.

He is quite tall, but very thin, with a healthy wheat-colored skin.

Only then did I realize that the man also had a scar on his left cheek. Judging from the color, it was old. It ran from the cheekbone to behind the ear.

His facial features are very handsome, the kind that people can remember at first sight.

Ice-blue eyes, silver-white shoulder-length hair, and the scar that made his already cold temperament even more unapproachable.

The man saw that the person who had just spoken stopped talking after looking at his face. He thought that she also disliked the scar on his face like the other females in the tribe. He silently took a step back and turned the scar on his face to the side.

Watching the man retreat, Su Ling reflected, was it because I spoke too loudly just now? Or did he think that I would be attracted to him? Was he serious about retreating just now?

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to offend you just now. Thank you for saving me," Su Ling looked at the man and lowered her voice, "but your wound has become inflamed. You have to go to the doctor... and get medicine for treatment. Otherwise, if it continues to deteriorate, your life will be in danger."

I originally wanted to go to the hospital, but looking at the inflamed wound, there should be no doctor there, otherwise they wouldn't do something like smearing mud on the wound.

"There is no medicine. Injuries like mine are incurable." The man said indifferently.

When he woke up this morning, he felt feverish. All the orcs in the tribe who had a fever returned to the arms of the Beast God without exception, and he would not become one of them.

Who would want to die when they can live? He has been injured for more than ten days. If male orcs were not naturally strong, a female would have collapsed long ago.

The tribe had no means of treatment. Minor injuries could only be left to heal automatically, while serious injuries could only be treated with waiting for death. He had never heard of any tribe that could treat such serious injuries.

Having lost his hunting ability, he did not want to wait for death under the sympathetic and compassionate gazes of his fellow tribesmen, so he resolutely left the tribe, hoping to find a way to treat his illness.

Today, we really had no food, so we dragged our weak bodies into the outskirts of the Giant Tree Forest to see if we could hunt some small prey. We didn't expect to see the scene just now. Every male in the Great Wilderness Tribe would not watch a female die in front of them.

The person was rescued, but now his injuries are even more serious. Never mind. It’s good to be able to save a female before her life ends. I feel relieved just thinking about it.

"My name is Su Ling. I know some simple bandaging. Your injury isn't the worst yet. Can you let me try? It might be helpful." It was this man who saved her when he was still injured. He was her lifesaver. She couldn't not try while there was still a way to treat it.

Su Ling is on the road all year round, so getting minor injuries is commonplace for her. Bandaging her own minor wounds is a basic skill, and she also knows some commonly used herbs in the wild.

There was a ripple in the man's calm eyes, but he quickly calmed down. He knew how badly he was injured, but seeing the female's eager look, he didn't say the words of refusal.

"My name is Hu Yi, and I'm an orc from the Tiger Tribe. It's not safe here. Can you still leave? I'll take you out first, and we'll talk about other things later." Hu Yi asked with a frown as he looked at Su Ling's broken knee.

It was obvious that the orc named Tiger Wing did not really trust her words that she could heal him. It was useless to say more now. This was indeed not the place to talk. She could only go out and talk first.

Su Ling tried to take two steps. It was a little painful but bearable. "It's OK."

Hu Yi broke off a branch and handed it to Su Ling, and they stumbled out of the forest together.

On the way, Su Ling learned from Hu Yi that this was the East Wasteland Plain, and that this forest had a very appropriate name called Giant Tree Forest.

There are many tribes living in this plain, and the Tiger Tribe is just one of them.

Of course, in addition to the East Wild Plain, there are also the South Wild Plain, the West Wild Plain, the North Wild Plain, and there is also a Central Plain with relatively rich resources in the center.

There is also a Beast King City on the Central Plains, which is not found in the other wastelands.

As for her origins, Su Ling told Hu Yi that she woke up in the Giant Tree Forest and could not remember anything that happened before.

Hu Yi didn't know whether he believed it or not, but he didn't ask much anyway. Maybe he felt that he didn't have much time left and didn't want to waste his energy worrying about these issues. Su Ling was also happy about this.

The civilization of the orc world is roughly similar to that of the ancient times of Blue Star. Most of them use stone and bone tools. A few large tribes in the East Wasteland Plains can own one or two iron tools, which is very remarkable. These iron tools were smuggled from the Central Plains. Other wastelands do not have iron smelting technology.

There is a shortage of supplies and food here, and the wild beasts are eyeing the orcs covetously. A famine year is divided into warm season, hot season, rainy season and cold season. The four-month cold season is particularly difficult. Heavy snow blocks the mountains and the temperature drops to minus ten to twenty degrees Celsius, making the survival of the orcs even more difficult. Many weak females and cubs can hardly survive the cold season.

Knowing what kind of world she had come to, Su Ling spent the entire journey from the initial surprise and helplessness to facing it calmly. She had not yet fully accepted it, but now there were more important things to do.

The place where they were originally located was only half an hour away from the forest. There were usually no large wild beasts there. It could only be said that Su Ling was unlucky.

However, it would still take a day's journey to reach Tiger Wing's tribe, even if the orcs ran at full speed.

So Hu Yi could only take Su Ling to the cave where he lived, which he had discovered when he was hunting before. The location was very secretive, and he would come here to take a rest when he was tired of hunting.

When they returned to the cave, Hu Yi could no longer hold on. "It's relatively safe here. Don't walk around. I'll take a rest. When I wake up, I'll take you back to the tribe..." He simply told Su Ling a few words and then fell asleep. He was injured, tired and hungry, and it took his strong willpower for him to hold on until now.

"Tiger Wings..."

Su Ling called out to Hu Yi a few times but he didn't wake up. It seemed that he was not simply asleep. She touched Hu Yi's forehead and found that he had already shown signs of fever. The injury could not be delayed any longer.

He used the only animal skin on the stone bed to cover the person.

Looking around the cave, apart from the stone bed, there were some simple stone tools. It was really crude. It seemed to be a temporary residence with no other daily necessities or food.

We can talk about these later. The most urgent task is to find some usable herbs first. His injury cannot be delayed any longer.

Su Ling walked out of the cave with heavy steps.
