The shower stopped, the morning sun broke through the night, and the first ray of sunlight penetrated the window lattice and fell into the spacious wooden house.
The tall orc on the bed opened his eyes and subconsciously looked inside the bed.
With a slightly bulging bump, the girl was sleeping soundly, half of her cheeks were covered by the quilt, and the exposed skin was crystal clear, white and flawless.
Perhaps it was the glare of the sun, she frowned her delicate eyebrows, her thick eyelashes quivered uncomfortably, her eyelids were so white that the tiny blood vessels could almost be seen. After a while, she gently raised her eyelids, her eyes were bleary, and her dark pupils were like gemstones and pearls soaked in water, overflowing with brilliance.
Seeing him, a smile appeared on his powdery sleeping face, with a sweet sleeping voice: "Ren, good morning."
Good morning…
Ren's pupils tightened suddenly, his emotions surged, he stretched out his animal palm, and grabbed the girl in front of him into his arms—
I missed it.
There was nothing in front of him, the bed was empty, only the lonely pillow that the girl used to sleep on.
The bed was cold.
Looking around, what else is there besides the colorful halo cast from the window
That little guy has long since left and returned to her own world.
He had asked her if she would come back, and she hadn't nodded.
She will not come back.
The heart seemed to be held, kneaded, and squeezed by a small hand. As long as she left, he was controlled by this hand.
Angina, wishing to drag the owner of this hand into his arms, torture her and punish her with the cruelest means.
The muscular chest heaved violently. He closed his eyes and opened them again. Ren's eyes had returned to calmness. He got up and dressed, as if nothing had happened just now, let alone lost control.
The Leopard Tribe is still the same as usual, the midsummer is scorching hot, and it has been three months since Ji Xiaoou left.
Ren first went to patrol around the valley and dealt with a few carnivorous offal that were messing around.
Back in the clan, the panda clan in the neighboring valley was invaded by baboons and asked the leopard clan for help. Ren learned that he led Winter, Dordo and other people to the Panda Clan Valley to rescue them.
The relationship between Ren and the leader of the Panda Clan, Oli, has always been good. When the Leopard Clan was injured and there were not enough doctors in the clan, it was the Panda Clan who helped them.
After repelling the group of clumsy and dull baboons, Ren didn't stay, and led the tribe back.
With blood stains on his body and paws, Ren returned to the race and took a bath in the back mountain stream. I don't know when he started to develop the habit of taking a bath every day.
After taking a bath, go home, put on clean animal clothes, and start cooking. Just after setting up the fire, I remembered that there was no little female who needed to eat cooked meat so as not to get sick, so I paused for two seconds, without any change on my face, raised my foot and kicked the fire to pieces, turned around and went away. Mountain.
Hunting, culling, dismantling food.
After a full meal, Ren stretched out his tongue to lick the blood from the corner of his mouth, and went home to rest.
This is his routine, boring, boring, day after day.
When there was no Ji Xiaoou, he never felt that there was any problem in such a life. After she appeared and left, Ren's life was like a prey he had eaten in the back of the mountain. The blood flowed clean, leaving only rotten skin and flesh.
After waking up from a nap, Ryan was working in the yard.
Suddenly the courtyard door was slammed loudly, and Wen Te hurried over and said, "Boss, that fellow Pat has escaped!"
Ren held a mallet, and under his hand was a dilapidated window. The room was used by Ji Xiaoou to practice fire|medicine. Hearing this sentence, the action of repairing the window suddenly stopped, the gavel was crushed in two in his hand, and he asked, "When?"
Winter said: "Last night." That fellow Pat escaped from the basement while the tribe was not paying attention.
Ren asked in a cold voice, "Have you looked for it?"
Wen Te nodded, "Dordo has led the people to look for it, but... there is no news yet."
"Catch him." Ren whispered, the veins on the back of his hand twitched, "Even if he runs to the east of Bornia, he must be caught by me."
Winter nodded quickly, and after a long time, he didn't leave, "The leader..."
He felt very guilty. If he hadn't said those words in front of the leader so much that the female knew that Pat was not dead, the female would not have left the leader in every possible way.
The leader didn't have to go to the eastern part of Bornia himself to catch the water turtle named Pat and make it available for him, threatening him every day to tell the whereabouts of the female.
Ren knew what he wanted to say, without raising his head, he said coldly: "Don't look at me with that kind of eyes, Wen Te. Do you think I will let you go? After you find Pat, you will go to the swamp for me Hey, don't let me see your face in the next ten months."
The swamp is the least safe place for the Leopards, and the only gap in the Kamuda Valley. Foreigners who want to attack the Leopards usually start from the swamp.
Not to mention that it is humid all the year round, and it is often in danger. The orcs who stay there to guard die several times a year.
Wen Te didn't dare to complain at all, but breathed a sigh of relief, "Yes, leader, I'm following your orders!"
Not long after Winter left, a member of the tribe came over and said that Pat had been found—
Pat ran for a whole night and half a day, but the speed of turtles was inherently slow. When Dordo led his people to find him, he hadn't walked out of the Kamuda Valley.
Without further ado, Dordo locked him in the basement again.
Pat was furious, grabbed the fence and said, "Go against the laws of nature and ignore the balance of heaven. If you do this, you will be punished by God sooner or later!"
But what is God
Without Ji Xiaoou, he wouldn't even care about death.
Ren walked up to him without changing his expression, sat down and propped up his long legs, "So, you admitted to sending her back, didn't you?"
Pat was stunned, "It has nothing to do with me! I don't know the female you mentioned at all, let alone help her return to another world! No, it should be said, it is impossible for me to do such a thing that violates the laws of nature. things…”
"What if I make you have to violate it?" Ren interrupted him and said, "Tell me the way to go to another world, otherwise you will be locked here until you die."
Pat gasped. "There's no way."
Ren asked: "If there is no way, why does she have to find you? Isn't it because you know something?"
Pat choked and couldn't speak.
Bandit logic, strong words.
Two months ago, he was captured by this orc who came unexpectedly from eastern Bornia to the Kamuda Valley, and forced him to tell the whereabouts of a female he had never seen before. If he did not tell, he would hand over A way to travel to another world.
Pat was treated so rudely for the first time in his two hundred years of life.
Let alone whether he knows the way to go to "another world", even if he knows, it is impossible to tell.
Disturbing the balance of the two worlds, causing turmoil between humans and orcs, how can there be peace in this world
Pat is still the same sentence: "I don't know anything!"
Ren's patience was exhausted, his face sank to the bottom, he walked out of the basement, and said to the clansmen at the door: "Starting tomorrow, reduce his water source until he says what I want."
However, after a few days, until Pat was dehydrated and only his thin body was shrunk inside the turtle shell, he didn't say a word about the way to travel through time and space.
Only then did Ryan believe that he really knew nothing.
On the same day, Ren asked the tribe to give him enough water, moved him out of the basement, and took him to Elder Boyson's house.
Although he was spared, he was not allowed to return home.
Ren can't say why, probably Pat is the only remaining relationship between him and Ji Xiaoou, without him, he and Ji Xiaoou would never be possible.
He couldn't tolerate the possibility.
Leaving Elder Boysen's house, Ren walked back to his own house.
On the way, I met Wen Te and his son Wen Erke. Wen Te obeyed Ryan's order and went to guard the swamp for ten months. The little Wen Erke was reluctant to part with him, hugging his thigh and crying non-stop, even the neighbors around him were alarmed.
Oh, I forgot to mention that after Ji Xiaoou left, Wen Te and Suchana gave birth to a son named Wen Erke.
——Most male leopards as old as Wren have found mates and have offspring of their own. Only Rain is still single.
Wen Te looked at Ren in embarrassment, and touched Wen Erke's head again. His son was too young to beat and scold him, "Be obedient, Wen Er Ke, go back with your mother."
Wen Erke shook his head, raised his head, and burst into tears, "No... Mom said it was dangerous there, Dad would die, I don't want Dad to die."
Winter: "Daddy won't die."
Wen Erke: "Can Dad not go? Why do you have to go to that kind of place?"
Winter coughed lightly, "Because Dad did something wrong, he must be punished."
Wen Erke cried with red eye circles, and said angrily: "It must be a bad guy who punishes Dad..."
Winter hurriedly covered his son's mouth, stupid son, if you still want your father to come back alive, please say less.
Ren Ke withdrew his indifferent eyes from Wen Erke, said nothing, and prepared to leave.
Suddenly, an abrupt voice came from the side, accompanied by Kelu's exaggerated ridicule, "Little brat, do you dare to say that our leader is a villain? Don't you want to die?"
Wen Te's expression changed, he protected Wen Erke behind him, and warned Kelu who came suddenly: "Kelu, it's none of your business."
Kelu shrugged and teased: "Hey, brother, don't be nervous, I'm here to help you talk."
Then he turned to Ren and said, "Chief, I don't think you need to punish Winter."
Ren stopped and looked away.
Kelu plausibly said: "If that female wants to leave you, I think she will leave no matter whether Wen Te tells the truth or not. It's just a matter of time."
Ren's eyes turned cold, but he didn't speak.
Kelu thought his words had been approved, and continued: "I don't think that female takes you seriously at all. You are so kind to her, and she leaves as soon as she says. It is not worth you to change the family rules for her." Said After a pause, he shook his head, "There are very few females in this world. Maybe after she left you, she would have found other males long ago and would never come back again. Only you are still thinking about her..."
Their leader is ridiculously infatuated.
On the side, Wen Te was terrified when he heard it, and carefully glanced at the leader's face, silently mourning for Kelu in his heart.
And Kelu didn't realize it, "Maybe she's always had other males in her heart, that's why she's indifferent to your pursuit, and now she must be |mating|mating|making|sexing with other males and giving birth to offspring..."
Before he could finish speaking, he was kicked far away!
Ren stepped forward, raised his foot and slammed on Kelu's chattering mouth, cold and angry: "Shut your mouth for me."
Kelu didn't realize the seriousness of the situation, "Boss, am I wrong, that female played with you..."
Ren kicked hard, and within a second, he heard the sound of his jaw dislocating. Kelu clutched his chin and rolled on the ground.
At that moment, Renn was about to burst into tears, his eyes were cold, and the veins on his back were bulging. He really wanted to kill Kelu.
This guy Kelu finally realized Ren's anger, his spine felt cold, and he panicked belatedly.
Ren crushed his chin with the soles of his feet, stared at him, and said slowly, word by word: "She will come back. How dare she be with other males without my permission."
Kelu's jaw hurts sharply, but he has no resistance in his hands, and regrets: "Yes, leader... I said it wrong..."
…
Wen Erke was so frightened that he hid behind Wen Te, but Wen Te didn't dare to go up to help.
At this time, Winter finally realized that the calmness of the previous leader was just a disguise.
It's not that he has strong self-control and doesn't care, but that he hides the female too deeply, where no one can touch it.
He never lost her because she was always in his heart.
Knowing that it was impossible, he had been waiting for her to come back.
Wait without deadline.
So when Krue punctured the illusion, he was angry, out of control, and wanted to kill, because he knew he was right—
She played with him and won't come back.
How dare she copulate, make |love, and bear offspring with other females!
At the thought of this possibility, Ren's chest was torn and his emotions were tyrannical.
Winter looked at Kelu, who was dying under Ren's hands, with sympathy and feeling that he deserved it.
After so many lessons, isn't he still clear about the position of that female in the leader's heart
