Looking at the dilapidated shack in front of him, Claude sighed, "You're asking for trouble. You saved a young mage and you have to come back to skin her bear."
He ran back and forth twice in one night, then treated the injuries of the young mage, wrapped her internally and externally with bandages, then applied medicine and bandages to the big black wolf, and then took a bath himself. It can be said that Claude was busy all night . In the morning, I specially cooked beef oatmeal porridge, with some blood-tonifying herbs added to it to replenish the body of the young mage.
It wasn't until about ten o'clock in the morning that the young mage woke up. Claude thought she would ask why she was here, whether Claude saved her or something. What I didn't expect was that the first words the young mage said after she woke up was that her forehead was still very hot and she had a fever. She was a bear, a bear skin, I want a bear skin.
Before Claude could figure out what she meant, he went over and said that the black bear that attacked her had been killed by her, and the body was in her shack. It was because of Black Wind's report that he rushed to the Witch Woods and rescued her. Now she is in her room at the Squirrel Village Camp. Apart from anything else, he first needed to heal her injuries. If he hadn't brought her back, she might have died of excessive blood loss.
Only then did the young mage realize that she was in a strange place. She looked at the tight bandages on her body and asked Claude with a cold face if he had taken off the clothes on her body.
Claude spread his hands helplessly. He had no choice. The soldiers in the camp were all men. It was better to ask the medical soldiers to come over to help treat her injuries and bandage them than to take advantage of it. After all, he and she knew each other. Besides, the situation was urgent and he wanted to save her. I didn't think much about her life at that time.
The young mage immediately lifted the quilt to get out of bed, looking for her own clothes, saying she was going back to the witch forest. Claude didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Are you desperate for your life? You can't even stand up, you're dizzy and you're trying to hold on. Just lie here and recover from your injuries before going back. Even though I couldn't help her with her wounds, I couldn't ask for help. I didn't mean to take advantage of her.
The young mage said that it was not for this reason. She wanted to go back because she wanted to deal with the killed black bear. If she stayed here and waited to recover from her injuries before going back, the black bear's body would be rotten and useless.
Claude pushed the young mage back onto the bed. It's raining so hard outside. Why are you so crazy? You want to go back and dispose of the black bear carcass. You have a problem in your head. Isn't it just a black bear? When the injury is healed, I will accompany you to kill two bears. I'll give you the black bear. The village elder of Squirrel Village said that there are many black bears in the forest behind the Witch Wood.
However, the young mage insisted on going back. She said that the black bear corpse was very useful to her. The bear skin, bear bile and bear bones were priceless treasures to her. In the end, Claude had no choice but to tell her that he would make another trip to skin the bear and bring it to her, as well as the bear bile and bones.
Perhaps because her body was really weak, the young mage found that she really couldn't stand for long. She was exhausted and felt dizzy, so she acquiesced to Claude skinning the bear. She only stopped Claude when he was about to go out and told him She had to skin the bear in the same way as the old bear skin she put under the table, so that the skin would be useful.
Fortunately, the rain subsided at noon, so Claude served beef oatmeal to the young mage and then prepared to set off for the Witch Wood. Originally, the big man Germi wanted to go with him, but Claude asked him to stay and help McJack take care of the young mage. There was such a big black wolf in the room, and McJack didn't dare to go in alone. Besides, Claude is also worried that with the big man Gimi following him, it will be difficult for him to do some things, such as casting spells and so on.
Claude brought two mountain pack horses. These short horses are very stable on mountain roads and have strong endurance to carry heavy loads. They are the main livestock for mountain people to carry and travel. There are six mountain draft horses in the Claude camp, which were used by McJack to transport the supplies when he went to the camp headquarters last time. This time Claude went to the Witch Wood. What he wanted to do was to skin the bear and bring the bear meat back to add some fresh meat to the camp. Anyway, it was only the rainy season in March and the weather was still very cold. The bear's carcass would not be damaged at all in one night.
During the day, he could see the mountain road clearly. Claude led two mountain packhorses and it took him three rough hours to reach the Witch Wood. He tied the reins of the two horses to the woods to take shelter from the rain, and Claude entered the shack by himself. .
The good news is that there is no water in the shack. Because of the high terrain, although the rainwater poured into the shack, it was still mixed with the black bears and flowed out.
