Chapter 28

Is this my end? I'm so unwilling... Yue'er...

Before Yan Che fell into coma, all he was thinking about was what to do with Jiang Yue.

After an unknown amount of time, Yan Che woke up and found himself lying on a piece of animal skin mat on a hillside.

It turned out that after Yan Che was washed away, he drifted down the stream and happened to be washed next to the big tree where the witch doctor was hiding. The witch doctor had a good impression of this simple-minded wolf-beast man, and after all, he was the beast husband of the goddess.

So the witch doctor decisively stepped in to rescue him, ordering several white fox orcs who were protecting him to rescue Yan Che, and then gave him acupuncture and medicine to detoxify him.

It was just the witch doctor's detoxification method, after all, not as effective as the detoxification pill that Jiang Yue bought from the system. Yan Che was unconscious for several days until the flood receded and the orcs of the White Fox Tribe temporarily moved to a higher hill, and then he woke up.

After waking up, he had a splitting headache. He grabbed the nearest orc and asked, "What happened? Where's Yue'er? Where's Hope?"

The orc was one of the witch doctor's guards. Hearing this, he exclaimed in surprise, "Are you awake?"

Then he hesitated: "It's just... the goddess..."

Seeing his expression, Yan Che felt something was wrong and spat out a mouthful of poisonous blood anxiously: "Ahem...quick...quickly tell me, what happened to Yue'er!"

The guard was shocked when he saw his expression. The pressure from the orange-level orcs was not something that a green-level orc like him could withstand. He hurriedly replied, "The goddess was abducted by the red-level snake orcs. Chief Huo left a message for you, saying that he went to the Jedi Cliff to seek help from the Golden-winged Roc tribe. The Golden-winged Roc is the natural enemy of the King Cobra, and there are three red-level warriors in the tribe. With their help, the goddess will definitely return safely."

After the guard finished speaking, he found that Yan Che's expression showed no joy or anger, but his eyes were very scary.

He had never seen such eyes before, anger, humiliation, self-blame, sadness, countless negative emotions swelled up and almost drowned him.

Yan Che's voice was hoarse but calm: "What about Ling Qingyun? Is there any news about him?"

The guard answered again: "The Red Fox Tribe sent a message that after he encountered a flood, he had no way to return the same way, so he had to temporarily return to the Red Fox Tribe for refuge. After learning that the goddess was abducted, he suddenly betrayed his family, took away most of the tribe's property, and left a letter saying that he had gone to Ghost Lake to look for the mermaids. Legend has it that mermaids only recognize money, not people. They can use their singing to bewitch people and are very powerful helpers. The current young tribe leader is even a red-level existence."

After listening to it, it turned out that he was the only one who was not only poisoned but also defeated the snake beastman who abducted Yue'er, causing Yue'er to be in danger and was in a coma for so long.

"Snapped!"

Yan Che slapped himself hard and was about to stand up, but the guard hurriedly said, "Don't worry. The witch doctor said that the poison in your body has not yet been eliminated. If you rashly transform and use your strength, the poison will flare up again!"

Yan Che's expression was grim: "It doesn't matter anymore. If this body can die for Yue'er, it will be my honor."

Communication in the beast world is very primitive, relying entirely on flying beastmen to deliver messages. For example, the news about Ling Qingyun was conveyed by a white pigeon beastman who traveled frequently in the Qingsong Forest Area.

The Ghost Lake area is the territory of the mermaids. This race is moody and very difficult to get along with. They never contact or trade with the outside world. Outsiders who break into the Ghost Lake area will be bewitched by their singing. If they cannot come up with enough money to impress the mermaids, they will be guided by the singing to commit suicide by jumping into the lake.

Because so many people disappeared or died mysteriously in the beginning, that area was named "Ghost Lake". It is very mysterious and is considered by the orcs to be a forbidden zone for life and a place cursed by the Beast God.

Until a lucky orc was inadvertently lured by the singing and entered the Ghost Lake area, but the salt and pearls he carried with him were loved by the mermaids and he saved his life. Then the truth about the Ghost Lake became known to everyone.

That person was the ancestor of the Red Fox Tribe who made his fortune by selling salt.

Therefore, apart from the Red Fox Tribe, no one knows the specific situation of Ghost Lake, and no one knows the preferences of the mermaids.
