"Little female, that beast-luring grass is extremely dangerous. Why would you want to see it?" the tribe leader asked in confusion. "Besides, this beast-luring grass is only in the hands of the witch doctors in our tribe. Ordinary orcs have never even seen it."

After saying that, he glared at Lang Yan next to him, as if blaming him for telling the little female about the animal-luring grass.

"Really?" Su Qianqian narrowed her eyes slightly, her gaze seemingly passing over Lan Di in the distance. Seeing Lan Di's gloomy face, she seemed to be afraid to speak. She then said, "I also learned about the beast-luring grass on the way to the back mountain this time. And since we were suddenly attacked by a wild beast that night, I couldn't help but become suspicious..."

As soon as she finished speaking, Lan Di lost his temper and said quickly, "Are you kidding? The beast-luring grass is only available to the witch doctor in the tribe. We haven't even seen it, so how could we know about such a dangerous thing?! Besides, it was obviously bad luck that we were attacked by wild animals that night..."

After saying that, he even scolded her, trying to hide his mistake: "Su Qianqian, stop trying to deceive people here!"

"Bad luck...?" Su Qianqian sneered and almost laughed at this poor excuse. How could she come up with that? How bad must her luck be to be chased to the cliff by so many wild beasts?

"Alright, alright, little female, stop doubting the beast-luring grass." The priest spoke up. "In our Gray Wolf Tribe, only the witch doctor has beast-luring grass. The other orcs have never seen it, and they don't have access to it. Being attacked by wild beasts in the forest is common. You were probably really unlucky that night."

As soon as the priest spoke, the other orcs followed suit, "Yes, yes, none of us have ever seen the beast-luring grass. I heard that the smell of the beast-luring grass is very unpleasant and that wild beasts hate it very much. Once they smell it, they will indiscriminately attack the surrounding orcs."

"Yes, that thing is too dangerous. As orcs, we will run away as far as possible when we see it. How can we possibly touch it ourselves..."

Everyone started discussing it one after another, and Su Qianqian's face darkened as she listened.

No one believed her.

We have to find evidence.

She subconsciously glanced at Lan Di in the distance, and sure enough, she saw her raising her chin at her with a smug look on her face.

Just because of her smug and arrogant look, Su Qianqian became even more certain that all this must have been secretly done by her!

However, as everyone said, this thing called the Beast Attracting Grass would attract wild beasts to attack. If Lan Di really had such a thing, how could he dare to bring it up the mountain? And still remain safe and sound?

There must be a secret that she doesn't know...

Thinking of this, Su Qianqian suppressed her impatience and stopped mentioning the matter.

Anyway, the truth will eventually come out, and she will definitely get to the bottom of this matter and expose Lanti's true face.

"By the way, little female, since you haven't been back, we haven't dared to touch the red fruit vines we brought back..." The tribe leader said, "Little female, when will you have time to teach us how to transplant these red fruit vines?"

Although it is still the warm season and there is still more than half a year before the snow season arrives, they must also make plans to stock up on food as early as possible.

Su Qianqian glanced at the clan leader and saw that he had a particularly earnest smile on his face. He really wanted to ask her for help, so she said, "Let's do the transplant tomorrow morning. I've been exhausted these past two days and really don't have the energy."

After saying that, she looked up at the sky. The sun had already set and night was about to fall.

The patriarch nodded earnestly, "Okay, okay. Then you should get some rest tonight and we'll do it tomorrow morning."

As he said that, he waved his hand again and asked everyone to disperse, leaving only two male orcs to supervise Lanti who was being punished.

"Let me take you home." Lang Yan walked over.

Su Qianqian didn't even raise her head: "Forget it, you've been very tired these past two days, go back and rest."

After saying that, without waiting for Lang Yan to speak, she turned around and walked towards her cave alone.

She had experienced so much outside these past two days that she just wanted to be alone...

-

After returning to the cave and lowering the straw curtain, the light in the cave instantly dimmed. Su Qianqian was just about to open the plane trading system to buy a candle when Gillian's voice suddenly sounded outside.

"Qianqian, are you free now? I want to bring you something."

Su Qianqian lifted the straw curtain and saw Gillian holding a bowl of hot broth. Her round face was full of concern. For some reason, her nose suddenly felt sore.

Gillian hurried over: "What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell? I'll go find the priest..."

Su Qianqian quickly pulled her back: "No, I'm not feeling uncomfortable... I just feel a little emotional when I see you..."

"What are you lamenting about?" Gillian couldn't help but smile. She stretched out her warm, rough hand and patted her shoulder soothingly. "Okay, it's all over. As long as you can return to the tribe safely, don't think about those things anymore."

"...Well, okay." Su Qianqian sniffed and nodded.

In this Gray Wolf Tribe, she could never find a sense of belonging. Even with the tribe leader who treated her well, she could not truly feel at ease. She always felt that the tribe leader's kindness to her was always for ulterior motives...

But only with Gillian does she feel a sense of familiarity.

Gillian placed the broth in her hand and comforted her gently, "Although I don't know what you've been through outside, you must be tired these past two days. Eat something first to fill your stomach, and have a good rest tonight. We can talk about anything tomorrow."

Su Qianqian held the hot broth and felt a warmth in her heart. She said, "Thank you, Gillian."

She had been back for so long, and only Gillian cared about whether she had eaten or not, and whether she was tired outside. She even came to visit her in person and brought her food...

"Okay, I'll leave first and not disturb your rest."

Watching Gillian's back as she left, Su Qianqian couldn't help but feel a lump in her throat.

Gillian is such a good person, why would Lan Di want to harm her?

And why did her two beastly husbands betray Gillian?

Thinking of this, Su Qianqian couldn't help but bite her lip, feeling really sorry for Gillian.

Night had fallen, and in a moment, the cave was pitch black, with no sight of one's hand in front of one's face.

Su Qianqian still bought candles in the plane trading system and lit them with a lighter.

The dim light of the candle illuminated the cave, which was neither too big nor too small. Su Qianqian sat on the stone bed, holding the broth brought by Gillian in her hand and drinking it in small sips.

Although the broth tasted as bad as usual, she still drank it up bit by bit.

As soon as the hot broth went into my stomach, I felt a warm sensation in my lower abdomen.

Su Qianqian put the stone bowl aside and opened the plane trading system again. She wanted to see if the merchant from the modern plane had replied to her message.

As expected, there was no news.

After all, the speed of time flow between the two of them is too different.

She opened the chat interface of the interstellar businessman again and sent a message: [Hello].

The other party quickly replied: [What's up?]
