Quick Transmigration: Saving That Cannon Fodder

There is a stone table and stone chairs on the side, and some stone bowls on the stone table.

The original owner was a clean person, and there was no place in the cave that Akahoshi disliked, except for the lack of windows.

He put down the large basket, untied the vines binding it, and saw the person inside the animal skin blanket shivering.

"Don't be afraid, I won't hurt you. Stick your head out, don't bury yourself, okay?"

Akahoshi's voice now was countless times gentler than when she spoke to others.

It was this sound that made the little sub-beast, huddled in the animal skin blanket, lower its guard. It poked half its head out, its wet eyes looking at Red Star.

His eyes looked pitiful, as if he would burst into tears if Akahoshi dared to be fierce to him.

This sight completely softened Akahoshi's heart, and she spoke even softer.

"Do you remember who I am?"

Fox Jade blinked and whispered, "White, White Tiger Beastman, you, you saved me."

As Akahoshi stared at his innocent appearance, a sudden tightness gripped her lower abdomen.

How could his Ayu look at him with such innocent eyes?

Unable to resist teasing him, Akahoshi said, "Well, I saved you. I should repay your life with my body. From now on, you'll be my sub-beast, understand?"

Fox Jade's pupils dilated upon hearing this. He looked Chi Xing up and down, holding back his tears, and said:

"Then, could you please not eat me? I... I don't taste good."

He had already heard that the orcs from the outside tribes were very fierce, and some would even eat the smaller sub-beasts.

The mountain tribes are mostly herbivorous beastmen, with cattle and sheep being the most common. Fox Jade had never seen such fierce beastmen before.

When Fox Jade first saw the white tiger beastman in front of her, she was so frightened that she fainted.

Akahoshi chuckled and said, "I don't eat sub-beasts."

Staring at him, Fox Jade was relieved to be sure he wasn't lying.

No, he seems to have been injured and fainted. Hu Yu didn't feel any pain on his body, so she couldn't help but lift the blanket to expose his arm to check.

If I remember correctly, I got a deep cut on my arm in the woods, and it bled.

But now, her arms are smooth and fair, and there is no sign of injury.

"Huh? My hand?"

He then noticed that the animal skin clothes he was wearing were not the same ones he had come out with, and looked at Chixing again.

"you you……"

Akahoshi couldn't help but laugh at his dazed look; how could anyone be so adorable?

He squatted down in front of Hu Yu like a small mountain and whispered:

"I found a medicinal herb by the stream that can actually heal your wounds. Isn't that amazing?"

Fox Jade blinked, showing absolutely no doubt, and nodded, saying:

"Amazing."

He wanted to ask if there was any more of this herb. He was determined to tell the people in the tribe about this useful herb so that the beastmen wouldn't get hurt when they went out hunting.

But he dared not ask that question, fearing that Akahoshi would get angry and then eat him.

Chi Xing laughed and said, "There's no more, only that one plant, which is just right for healing your injury."

Upon hearing this, Hu Yu's eyes widened slightly.

He actually used something so precious for himself; this white tiger beastman is too kind.

It's a pity there was only one of those herbs.

The mountain tribes are mostly herbivorous beastmen, but they occasionally need to eat meat to replenish their strength. Sub-beastmen and cubs also need to eat meat, so the beastmen in their tribes also need to go out hunting.

Hunting is dangerous for orcs; sometimes injuries can be fatal. If only there were herbs to heal them.

Thinking of the mountain tribe, Fox Jade's gaze became vacant, as if she were recalling something.

"What's wrong? You still haven't told me where you're from or what your name is?"

Akahoshi knew Ayu's name, but he couldn't say it directly; he had to ask him first before he could call her that.

Fox Jade made no attempt to conceal her identity, stating directly, "My name is Fox Jade, and I am a sub-beast from the mountain forest tribe."

"Where is the mountain tribe? Why are you alone in the forest? It's dangerous."

Thinking of this, Fox Jade frowned:

“I don’t know the way back. Yes, Yang Le said that Beast Father was injured while hunting and asked me to go out and meet him.”

The mountain forest tribe was located in a dense mountain forest. Hu Yu, who had never been outside before, was so anxious after Yang Le said that that she followed him out of the tribe.

Unexpectedly, Yang Le led him further and further away until the tribe could no longer be seen.

Fox Jade's eyes were filled with sadness: "He said that Beast Father was seriously injured, but when I got outside, I didn't see any beastmen, let alone Beast Father. When I turned around, even Sheep Joy was gone."

He was terrified. Only adult sub-beasts had the opportunity to participate in gathering, and he had never been once, let alone gone out into the forest.

He could only try to find his way back by relying on his memory, but no matter which way he went, he was surrounded by the same woods. He realized he was lost.

He encountered several wild beasts, dodging them but not the ferocious bear.

The bear-beast was so big that he couldn't even see its head clearly. Thinking about it now still makes him tremble.

Akahoshi knew that he was afraid because he remembered the bear beast.

That was an enlarged version of a black bear, lacking intelligence but also quite clever.

He lifted Hu Yu up like a child, grabbing him under the armpits and pulling him into his arms.

He gently patted the back of his hand and coaxed him in a low voice, "Don't be scared by my touch. That bear is dead. We'll eat its flesh tonight. Don't be afraid."

Hu Yu felt a little embarrassed as she was being held like this, her hands resting on his chest.

When he was little, only his father and Yang Le held him like that.

Beast Father is Yang Le's Beast Father. He is a little sub-beast adopted by Beast Father. Yang Le is three years older than him and is a sheep sub-beast.

When he was little, Yang Le liked to hug him like this because Yang Le was always much taller than him.

Why are you hugging me?

“I’m an adult now, I don’t need to be carried,” Fox Jade said earnestly.

Akahoshi deliberately lifted the arm supporting his buttocks, and Koyu was so frightened that he quickly hugged his neck.

A soft laugh rang in Hu Yu's ear: "You're my wife, I can hug you whenever I want."

"What is a wife?" Fox Jade asked curiously again.

Akahoshi said earnestly, "Wife is my pet name for you, it means partner, and you will be my wife from now on."

"But we haven't formed a bond yet. We'll only be partners after we form a bond," Fox Jade explained earnestly, thinking the White Tiger Beastman wouldn't understand.

Akahoshi pretended to think for a moment, then nodded:

“You’re right. Let’s have a bond ceremony another day and officially become partners.”

Fox Jade pondered, something seemed amiss.

But before he could think further, Akahoshi changed the subject.

"Who is this Yang Le you're talking about? He tricked you into going out and almost got you killed, you know that?"

Hu Yu shook her head: "No, Yang Le is my older brother since I was a child. He would never harm me."

However, he always felt that Yang Le was strange, but he couldn't figure out what was wrong with him.

Chixing felt uneasy when he heard him call other people "brother," especially when he heard him speak up for that sheep.
