"Yes." Xi Yi raised his head and looked directly at the patriarch.

As soon as he finished speaking, the originally quiet crowd suddenly exploded as if a bomb was thrown into it, and instantly became extremely noisy!

The tribesmen began to whisper to each other, and the noisy sound filled the entire open space.

"The Buxu tribe!" Wu Lu exclaimed.

Nishi Ichiki was a little surprised as to why they reacted so strongly. When he saw that children of his own age did not have any special reactions, he suddenly realized that the migration must have happened a long time ago.

Wu Lu was not willing to say more about that migration.

Since I don’t know much about the children here, it’s probably because they were too young at that time or even not born yet.

It seems that there are still many things that I need to slowly understand.

The patriarch's body trembled slightly, and his eyes were filled with hatred as he stared at the dark forest. The anger in his heart made his breathing gradually become heavier, and the joints of his clenched fists made a "cracking" sound.

Everyone seemed to be intimidated by such a clan leader. They all fell silent and stopped discussing.

The patriarch stood there for a while, then ordered everyone with an expressionless face to start dividing the meat. Apart from the low pressure around them, it seemed as if nothing had happened.

Compared with yesterday's meal, this one was very depressing. After the meal, the tribe leader asked the women and children to go into the cave and rest early.

Xi Yiqi took a look before entering the cave. The men gathered together and seemed to be discussing something. In addition to Siduo and Wulu, Xi Yi was also among them.

Maybe they were discussing the Buxu tribe they were talking about, maybe they were discussing the injured Ze Yi, or maybe they were discussing the witch doctor who had not returned yet.

Heaven knows, earth knows, and they know.

Anyway, Nishi Ichiki doesn’t know for the time being.

I walked into the cave and touched the Han fruit that I had been holding in my hand for a long time.

I can only wait and find another opportunity to give it to Xi Yi, and see if I can find out something by the way.

Nishi Ichiki came in late, and the cave was already full of people lying in all directions. Perhaps because the cave had not been cleaned for a long time, an unpleasant smell penetrated his nostrils.

There is quite a lot of space around Black Stone. He has a bad temper and often keeps to himself, not talking to anyone.

Children usually sleep away from him.

Xixi Yiqi had no time to think about the interpersonal relationships in the primitive tribe in the past few days. She just lay down when she saw an empty seat. Even if she was kicked a few times, she just treated it as a kid being in a bad mood after waking up.

I didn't expect it to be a blood feud...

Touching his slightly red and swollen neck, thinking of the suffocation he felt in the morning, Xi Yiqi didn't want to sleep next to him again, but there was no other empty space in the cave except the entrance.

The rocks do not completely block the cave entrance, and the night breeze that blows in is freezing cold.

Even a simple cold and fever could result in loss of life in primitive society, not to mention that the tribe's witch doctor had not returned yet.

"Oh." He sighed softly.

Holding the animal skin, he looked at the land next to the black stone and walked over slowly with a resigned look on his face.

Before I could move forward, I saw a short figure nimbly carrying hay and spreading it next to the black stone.

It is Xi Yi.

He lay down and glanced at Nishi Ichiki who looked like a dummy, and the two of them looked at each other. His dark eyes seemed to be soaked in ink, so deep that no emotion could be seen in them.

Thinking that he had not yet asked him about his injury, Xi Yiqi was about to say something, but he saw that Xi Yi had turned his back and lay on his side.

At this moment, a sneer was heard, and Heishi glanced at the two of them while lying down.

He opened his mouth and said to Nishi Ichiki, "You can't hide from it."

When she met Heishi's gaze, a chill spread along her skin and instantly penetrated every part of her body.

"Why are you standing there! Don't disturb my rest." Xi Yi's voice floated from the ground, bringing with it the coolness of early spring.

Xi Yiqi didn't hesitate to look at the empty seat next to Xi Yi, spread the hay, and then lay down on it.

Looking at Xiyi's thin body, he patted him gently. The boy's shoulders stiffened for a moment, but he did not turn around.

Never mind. There’s no rush.

She herself didn't know how he got along with his elder sister, but from saving her in the morning to sleeping between her and Heishi at night with a cold face but a warm heart, he was secretly protecting her.

Although he didn't look happy, a gentleman judges by deeds, not by heart.

Nishi Ichisu is an only child and has never felt the care from a younger brother. In the darkness, her eyelashes trembled slightly.

A hint of warmth quietly arose in my heart.

Too many things happened today, and Xi Yiqi's mind was in a mess, as if his thoughts were blocked by a ball of paste. He thought about this and that, and soon fell asleep.

Hearing the sound of shallow breathing coming from behind, the boy's thin body slowly turned towards Nishi Ichiki.

Looking at her sleeping face, his eyes first softened slightly, then filled with frost in an instant.

After a while, Xi Yi also fell into a deep sleep.

----

The light of the early sun gradually poured into the cave, trying to disperse in the unclear corners. The boy with yellowish hair slowly opened his eyes, his neck moved, and his cervical vertebrae made a few crisp crackling sounds.

He tried to stand up as usual, but soon fell back down, feeling a sharp pain in his right foot and was stunned for a few seconds.

"Oh, yes, I was injured yesterday."

The boy was just about to stand up slowly by supporting himself with his hands, but his crutch touched something cold.

He squinted his eyes and stared at the fruit that had rolled on the hay. His expression suddenly paused, and after a while he finally picked it up.

This is hers.

When they were sitting by the campfire yesterday, he saw her holding a Han Guo, frowning and in a daze, and he didn't know what she was thinking about.

----

Nishi Ichiki woke up early today, with something on his mind, and didn't sleep well.

She first went to see Zeyi who was injured last night, touched his forehead, and found that he was indeed a little feverish.

It is possible that the wound is infected, but I don’t recognize the herbs in this forest.

So she borrowed a few pieces of pika skin from Grandma Wulu, wet them by the stream, and wrung them dry, using both hands alternately to try to reduce his fever.

Do as much as you can within your ability.

Although Nimi didn't understand why she did this, she was willing to do anything for Zeyi. She looked at Nishi Ichisu eagerly and wanted to lend a hand to help.

The sun had not yet risen in the morning, the lighting was dim, and she was pregnant. Nishi Ichisu was worried that she would fall, so he refused.

The stream water in the forest was particularly refreshing. After going back and forth several times, Xi Yiqi's fingers turned red and he felt his bones were icy. His hands had long lost all feeling.

She didn't care at all. She wrung out the animal skin in her hand and walked towards the cave. At the door, she met Xi Yi who was walking slowly with dragging feet.

Xi Yi glanced at her hand, pursed his lips, and said, "How is Brother Zeyi?"

"He has a fever and is still in a coma... How is your foot? Is it serious?"

With the dappled sunlight shining through the woods, she was able to see the boy's feet clearly.

This boy also has a pair of big feet!

Because people in primitive tribes rarely wear shoes, there are more or less scratches on their feet.

The boy was no exception, with some dirt between his toes.

His right ankle was a little swollen. Thinking of the scene he described at the campfire yesterday, I guessed that he sprained his foot when he was too anxious to call for help, because there were some abrasions on his knees.

The boy didn't care about it at all. Such minor injuries were nothing in primitive society.

"Go and take care of Brother Zeyi. I don't need you to worry about me." The young man said as he threw the Han fruit in his hand to Xi Yiqi.

In order to prevent the fruit from breaking, Nishi Ichisu quickly caught it.
