Shihui picked up the unconscious Annie, patted her back gently, and his eyes were as gentle as water.

She said in an exceptionally gentle tone: "We are refugees preparing to go to Helm Harbor. My sister is sick and happened to see the fire here, so she wanted to see if there are any herbs here to reduce the fever."

"I hope you can give us some fever-reducing herbs. We only need a portion for this child, not too much."

The surrounding villagers' vigilance weakened a lot after seeing the girl in her arms. They were so nervous that they didn't even notice that there was a child there.

For a woman with a child, the danger is definitely much less, especially since the other party's concern for the child does not seem to be fake at all.

This also made them feel pity for the three people.

One can imagine how difficult it must have been for these two people to travel this distance with a child and a silly dog.

The pig-headed girl looked at the little girl in the other person's arms, still a little wary in her heart, and continued to ask: "You say it's pitiful, but we are not that kind."

"And how come we don't know if you are in cahoots with that group of weirdos?"

She was still very wary of the two strange women who suddenly appeared. After all, there were too many strange things in the forest recently, and their living space was gradually shrinking.

Those weirdos spoke incomprehensible words and even moved strange objects.

Although the surrounding villagers were stupid, they could react after a little reminder and quickly echoed:

"Yes, yes, maybe they were sent here!"

"Those weirdos were followed by quite a few people, both men and women, young and old!"

"These guys definitely have bad intentions!"

"Those guys hang around here every day, they definitely have bad intentions!"

······

Shi Hui was speechless for a while, not knowing whether to call them smart or stupid. The confused thoughts in his mind popped up again.

"Look at these despicable guys. Just kill them all. I can find herbs by resurrecting any undead. Kill them all!"

'Shut up!'

After thinking for a moment, she took off the backpack full of food and opened it to reveal the food inside.

When seeing so much food in the backpacks, all the villagers' eyes were filled with enthusiasm, and some even kept swallowing their saliva.

There is chaos outside now, and they are almost short of food. The amount of food they can get is pitifully small. Now that there is so much food here, how can they not be tempted?

Although they lived off the mountains and the water, there were not so many fish and shrimps in the water. Some of the wild game in the mountains had even begun to mutate and almost ate them, the villagers.

Although I can't see the true faces of the two women in front of me, with their thin arms and legs, what means can they use to defend themselves?

Thinking of this, these people's eyes began to look malicious.

If we kill them, won’t the food be ours too?

"boom!"

Looking at the wolf-like eyes of these people, Shi Hui took out his revolver and fired into the sky. This instantly brought everyone back to reality, and everyone retreated with horror on their faces.

“Fire... Fire snake!!!”

"This guy has a fire snake in his hand!"

"Stay away from them!"

Everyone retreated one after another, putting some distance between themselves and Shi Hui and the other two.

Although they couldn't name the weapons in the opponents' hands, they had seen their terrifying power with their own eyes before!

Some weirdos dressed like the woman in the magic hat were holding tongues of fire, and even these villagers would be killed if they were hit by one.

“Hmmmmmm…”

Anne, shocked by the gunshot, whimpered. Shihui frowned slightly, gently rocked little Anne, and kissed her on the head, looking like a loving mother.

In this strange atmosphere, Shi Hui coaxed Annie for a while, then turned his gaze to the pig-headed girl:

"Let's make a deal. I want herbs that can cure fever, and you'll let us stay for one more night. All the food will be yours!"

"You don't trust us, and we don't trust you, so how about we make a deal that's a good deal for both of us?"

This is her ultimatum. If you don't do what she wants, she will kill you all!

As she spoke, she pointed the black muzzle of the gun at the pig-headed girl. Her tone was extremely cold, without any of her previous kindness and motherly love, as if she could shoot and kill her at any time.

The pig-headed girl looked nervous, but she suppressed the fear in her heart. If the other party really wanted to kill her, he would have done it long ago.

Since the other party is willing to exchange, why not do it? After all, this is a forest, and the thing that is most in abundance is herbs!

"Okay... follow me..."

Three people and a dog walked into the village surrounded by wooden walls.

The village is surrounded by a high wooden wall, like a solid barrier, isolating the village from the towering forest outside.

There is a huge bonfire in the center of the village. It is made by randomly stacking huge logs together. The bonfire is burning brightly, lighting up the entire village.

Around the campfire, women sat together, their hands busy sewing clothes or repairing weapons. They talked and laughed, and there were strange animals leaning against the campfire.

The children played around the bonfire, their laughter echoing throughout the village.

Bonfire is not only a tool for villagers to keep warm and light, but also a center for their social interaction and entertainment.

The wooden houses in the village were built very randomly without any pattern at all.

Some of these wooden houses are built with logs, while others are made of spliced ​​wooden boards.

The roofs of the wooden houses are covered with thick thatch to prevent rain from seeping in, and the walls are hung with various animal skins and bones, which are the trophies obtained by the villagers during hunting.

The pig-headed girl brought the three people to her own residence, which was a simple triangular house built of wood. There were only animal skins hung outside to block the light, and there was only a simple wooden window and wooden table inside the house.

Almost all the furniture in the house is made of wood.

But in Shihui's eyes, all of this changed. He followed a crazy woman into the ward. She used her own clothes and needlework to build a small nest on the bed. It was really strange.

"Put the child on the bed first, she has a high fever."

The pig-headed girl took off the pig head on her head and took off her green grass leaves clothes, revealing her slender figure.

But the room was full of girls, and no one cared about those things.

Shihui gently placed Annie on the bed and gently covered her with the animal skin quilt next to her.

"Wait here for a moment. I'm going to inform the village chief first. I'll bring you the herbs when the time comes."

With that, she quickly walked out of the house and disappeared into the night. She was so decisive that she didn't give anyone a chance to speak.

Oleina even pulled aside the door curtain to look outside. After realizing that there was no one around, she put her head back and said in an indignant tone, "These guys are so annoying. They keep dithering and still want things in the end. If you didn't have a gun, Miss Hilde, I'm afraid you wouldn't be able to subdue them!"

"It doesn't matter, let's cure Annie first," Shihui said calmly.

What's the harm in letting these people be happy for one night? Killing them all would be easy for her, but the most urgent priority is to heal Anne.

Not long after, the pig-headed girl pushed open the animal skin curtain and walked in with a bowl of strange green medicine soup. The pungent smell made everyone frown. She handed the medicine soup carefully to Shihui.

"This medicinal soup is very useful. Give it to her first. I have something else to do in the village, so I won't be with you anymore."

After saying that, she left again, but this time there were many conversations among men, women, young and old in the village.

"There's another group of people outside. They're dressed really strangely. Let's go and take a look!"

"Be careful, don't fight with them!"
