The other side of the jungle.

"Woo woo!" Bursts of wailing came from the fox and rabbit tribe.

In the witch doctor's cave, the witch was applying crushed green herbs to Hu Xia's left face. The left half of his face, including his eyeball, was burnt and rotten, bleeding and pus, and his skin was burnt and his flesh was brittle. His eyelids were also burned. One of his eyeballs was bulging out and was about to fall off.

The witch had never seen such severe burns in her life. Fire was very precious and uncommon in the Orc Continent. Not all orcs knew how to make fire, so very few orcs were burned.

: "Whether he can survive depends on himself!" The old witch put down the herbs in her hand, leaving only the patriarch with tears in his eyes.

"Father, will I die?" Hu Xia asked with a groan.

"No, you and A Zhan will be fine!" Hu Daji comforted his son in a gentle voice.

In fact, Hu Zhan's back was bitten through by a giant anaconda. Even if he recovered, it would be difficult for him to walk normally, let alone restore his original strength as a day-level orc.

The disabled orcs can only rely on their families. If they have no blood relatives to support them, they will starve to death.

Hu Daji had three sons and one daughter. Now one of his three sons is dead and two are disabled, making it hopeless for him to succeed the position of clan leader. The side branches also lost several Thunder-level and Moon-level orcs. The strength of their family in the Fox-Rabbit Tribe has been greatly weakened. It can be said that this unfinished sacrifice changed the fate of their entire family.

"Father, is my third brother seriously injured?" A plump female entered the witch doctor's cave.

: "Axue is here..." Hu Daji wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes.

Hu Xue was the youngest child in the family. He had been raised with love by his parents and brothers. As soon as he heard the bad news, he rushed to the witch doctor's cave.

Hu Xue looked at the orc lying on the animal skin bed. Half of his face was burnt and twisted, and the little remaining skin was wrinkled and attached to the soft and rotten flesh. The strong smell of herbs could not suppress the stench and rotten smell.

If she hadn't seen the surviving half of the face, Hu Xue would never have recognized that this was the third brother who doted on her when she was growing up.

: "Third brother, you should have a good rest..." She almost vomited, and endured the churning in her stomach and walked out of the cave quickly.

Hu Xia didn't say anything, and the remaining half of his face couldn't reveal his expression at the moment.

Hu Daji patted Hu Xia's hand gently and said, "Father will come to see you tomorrow..." Then he turned around and left the cave.

"Axue, are you okay? You're pregnant, why did you come here?"

"Can the eldest brother and the third brother recover?" Hu Xue looked worried.

Hu Daji did not answer Hu Xue directly, but asked, "Xue'er, let me ask you, how do your eldest and third brothers treat you?"

From childhood to adulthood, the brothers would always give priority to their sister when eating the food they hunted, leaving the most tender parts for her. Even in the dry season, when many orcs were still starving, the supply of tender meat to Hu Xue never stopped.

"Brothers treat me very well." Hu Xue lowered her head.

: "Father is old, and I don't know how long he can take care of them. Although Hu Zhuang, Hu Yang and others will help take care of them, they are cousins ​​after all, and they can't take care of them for the rest of their lives..." Hu Daji's turbid eyes were filled with worry.

"Father, I feel a little uncomfortable. I will go to see my eldest brother another day..." Hu Xue did not continue what her father said.

Hu Daji paused for a moment and said, "Ah...Okay, it's getting late. You should go back and rest first. Your health is the most important thing."

Inside the cave, Hu Xia clenched his hands into fists. He was disabled, but he was not stupid. He did not want to be a burden to his family, nor did he want to be a cripple waiting to die...

Hu Xue returned to the cave where the cubs were babbling and playing. Hu Xue rubbed her brows and whispered, "Afeng, take the cubs to the cave next door to play for a while. I want to sleep for a while." Then she waved to the first beast husband Qin Wu, motioning him to come over.

Nan Feng is Hu Xue's second husband, and Hu Xue is now pregnant with his child.

The three cubs in front of him belonged to the first beast husband Qin Wu. Although the males would help take care of the cubs, he couldn't help feeling jealous when he saw Hu Xue send him away and leave Qin Wu alone.

Hu Xue had four beast husbands, and the other two were out hunting. Not only did she have to balance the fights between the beast husbands every day, she also had to feed the cubs. Now she was pregnant, and she felt exhausted. Now that her three brothers were in trouble, she felt exhausted.

After Nanfeng left, Hu Xue snuggled in Qin Wu's arms and said softly, "Awu, I went to see my third brother today. He was seriously injured. I'm afraid he won't be able to hunt anymore. My eldest brother might also..."

Hu Xue looked up at Qin Wu. He was the number one beast husband, with a natural ability of the Moon Stage. He was the strongest among the four beast husbands. Hu Xue had chosen him as her partner because of his natural ability.

Qin Wu had a complicated expression and did not respond.

Hu Xue was also a little embarrassed, her willow-shaped eyes were filled with tears: "Brother has been very kind to me, I can't just ignore it..."

Qin Wu patted Hu Xue's shoulder: "Of course, I'm here, don't worry!"

Hu Xue's eyes sparkled with tears. Most beast husbands were unwilling to take care of such a burden, but she didn't expect him to agree so readily. He had the highest talent among the beast husbands, and as long as he agreed, other beast husbands would have no objection.

Hu Xue raised her round arms, wrapped them around his neck tenderly and gave him a kiss: "Awu, thank you!"

Qin Wu has a strong outline, thick eyebrows and a straight nose, which makes people feel resolute, down-to-earth and reliable.

Hu Xue struck while the iron was hot: "From now on, I'll leave the task of delivering meat to my brother tonight. You and my brother are familiar with each other, and I'm worried if they go with a few others..."

"Okay. I'll be back soon." Qin Wu agreed gently, got up, picked up a hare from the corner, and walked towards the witch doctor's cave in the night.

The night wind is cool and the silver hook hangs high.

: "It was because of you two bastards that Lu Ming almost lost his life. We can't waste it!" Yan Qiling went back to the cave to get the animal skin bag and remembered the prey that fell not far from the cave.

Under the moonlight, a snow-white fox-rabbit was carrying two mound rabbits and running towards the witch doctor's cave.

Back in the cave, Lu Ming, lying on the stone bed, was still in a coma although his breathing had returned to normal.

Yan Qiling looked at the furry gray figure on the stone bed with concern, hoping that the gentle boy would wake up soon.

"He will definitely be hungry when he wakes up!" Yan Qiling went outside the cave to make a fire. She found a burning torch stuck on the rock wall outside the witch doctor's cave, so she used the fire to light a small fire.

After a while, the rabbit meat was roasted, and the rich roasted aroma filled the air. From time to time, people in the cave cast their eyes over. Yan Qiling waved to the two young apprentices in the cave, motioning them to come over.
