Lai Yuan also wanted to help, but he was worried about Mu Ge'er and Wang Jin. He thought for a moment and said, "Jin Ge'er, Amu, you two come home with me first."
"Okay!" Wang Jin responded.
Yue Ge'er hurriedly blocked the door and said, "You can't leave. You killed A Yu, you must pay with your life!"
Lai Yuan heard this and said with a dark face, "Brother Yue, this is not the time to talk about this. Let's talk about it after we find Brother Xi. Get out of the way."
Lai Yuan reached out and pushed Yue Ge'er away, then left with Wang Jin and Mu Ge'er. Before Wang Jin left, he glanced at Yue Ge'er. That person's eyes were gloomy, as if he would turn into a lingering ghost and come to take his life in the next second.
Lai Yuan brought the two men into the house, searched out all the food in the house, gave it to them, and asked them to close the doors and windows and not go out until the beast tide was over. After giving the instructions, he left alone.
Mu Ge'er seemed to want to say something but hesitated, as if he wanted to keep Lai Yuan, but in the end he watched Lai Yuan leave.
This was Wang Jin’s first time experiencing a beast tide. He had not seen the horror of the beast tide with his own eyes, but he knew the danger of the beast tide from the words of everyone.
Before, they fell into a python cave. The snakes were so big. If there were a group of such huge creatures, they would pass by in a black mass...
Just thinking about that scene, Wang Jin was terrified. He grabbed Mu Ge'er's sleeve and asked, "Amu... Brother Heng..."
Mu Ge'er was stunned. Yes, Yuan Heng was still deep in the jungle.
Yuan Heng is an ancient orc. According to his ability, the beast tide will not pose a threat to him. However, that is the deep jungle, where there are the most wild beasts...
Mu Ge'er couldn't tell for sure, but seeing Wang Jin's worried expression, he gritted his teeth and said in a relaxed tone, "It's okay. Brother Heng is an ancient orc. He's very strong. He'll be fine."
"..." Mu Ge'er's pretending to be relaxed was really fake, Wang Jin could tell at a glance that it was forced.
The two stayed in the house. At first, nothing happened, but soon the whole house was shaking, causing the mud and sand above their heads to fall off. The roars of wild beasts came one after another, getting louder and louder, and it seemed as if their eardrums were about to be broken.
Some scattered wild beasts would run into the tribe and would be hunted down by the orcs guarding the tribe.
During the time in the house, Mu Ge'er helped Wang Jin to cram in knowledge about beast tides.
This beast tide occurs once a year, on the first day after the first snow melts. But this year, the beast tide came before the snow even fell, and the tribe was not prepared at all.
In previous years, there was a month during the beast tide when we couldn’t go out hunting, so we would prepare food in advance, arrange for the beastmen to take turns guarding, and comfort our brothers...
But this year it came so quietly. Some orcs never came back from hunting. The guarding orcs in the tribe were totally insufficient. What made people even more worried was that Yuan Heng, the strongest man in the tribe, was not there.
In previous years, no matter what happened, as long as Yuan Heng was there, everyone felt at ease.
This year, not only was Yuan Heng absent, but there were not enough orcs, and the force was greatly reduced. What was even more alarming was that their pharmacist... had entered the jungle in the safe zone... and was likely trapped in the beast tide. Even worse, he might have already...
All these unexpected situations combined made every orc look very solemn...
