"alright!"
The clan leader's steady voice interrupted the quarrel among the beasts. He looked at Hu Qinggao with a serious face:
"Let's just leave it at that. Don't do such ridiculous things again."
After listening to Hu Qinggao's words, he also realized that something was wrong with Xie Man.
This orc is probably really interested in Hu Jiaojiao.
With the ability to command eight hundred orcs, in the eyes of the tribe leader, Xie Man is naturally worthy of Hu Jiaojiao.
But he pretended not to know.
Want to pursue them Jiaojiao
Get in line!
He would not interfere, nor would he go easy on him just because of the 800 orcs he led.
The clan leader had spoken personally, so Hu Qinggao could only nod reluctantly and said, "Yes, clan leader."
He's had enough fighting for today anyway.
Next time I’ll find an opportunity and fight without the clan leader knowing.
Xie Man also nodded with a dark face and did not pursue the matter any further.
All their food, accommodation and other supplies now come from the other tribe, so they can't fall out over such a small matter.
and.
He wasn't the only one who suffered.
Hu Jiaojiao glanced at Hu Qinggao's unconvinced expression and couldn't help but sigh.
That handsome face was already swollen, and his head was covered with bumps. His two panda eyes were as big as Xie Man's, and his mouth was crooked and bleeding.
He is hurting 800 enemies but hurting 1,000 of his own people!
Only my second brother could do such a stupid thing.
Just by looking at Hu Qinggao's eyes, she guessed that he must be unwilling to give up and had some new ideas in mind.
"Second brother, you can't beat him, so don't be impulsive." Hu Jiaojiao walked to Hu Qinggao and tried to comfort him earnestly.
The most important thing.
She didn't get the point of Hu Qinggao beating people at all!
It turns out that my second brother’s train of thought is not something that ordinary people can understand clearly.
The words "You can't beat him" were like a bomb thrown into Hu Qinggao's mind and exploded with a bang.
"Who said I can't beat him!"
"If you can't beat me once, will you be able to beat me every time?"
"One day, I will beat him to a pulp!!"
Hu Qinggao was filled with indignation, and his blood was ignited at this moment.
Fox Jiaojiao: "..."
have to!
There is no hope for my second brother, just give up.
"Xieman, this matter was my negligence. Let me give you two bags of flower salt as compensation, and you can share them with the orcs." The chief turned around and looked at Xieman with a generous look.
He waved his hand and asked two of his men to carry in two large bags of salt.
This bag weighs about 200 kilograms.
Two bags are enough for 800 orcs to eat, and they can sustain them for a long time in the winter.
Xie Man glanced at Hu Qinggao who was beaten even worse, and when he saw the two bags of salt, he no longer had any complaints in his heart.
"Okay, I'll thank the patriarch on their behalf."
He nodded, and the matter was written off.
If Hu Qinggao didn't want to cause trouble in the tribe, he would have been beaten even worse.
This injury is nothing to him.
You can also get two bags of salt flowers in exchange, which is really worth it.
Xieman said goodbye to the tribe leader and left carrying two bags of salt.
Before leaving, he didn't dare to look at Hu Jiaojiao even more.
He had a fight with her second brother and took away so much salt from their tribe. She must have hated him to death.
"Chief, if there is nothing else, then we will leave too." Seeing Xieman leave, Hu Qinggao could not stay any longer.
Like Hu Qingyuan, he was a lively person and felt suffocated in front of the stern face of the clan leader.
The patriarch looked a little tired.
He waved his hand, signaling him to leave quickly.
"Hey, little sister, let's go."
Hu Qinggao was about to pull Hu Jiaojiao away with him, but was stopped by a cold gaze.
When he looked up, he saw Long Mo looking at him with a sharp gaze as he was about to touch Hu Jiaojiao's hand.
Hu Qinggao withdrew his hand awkwardly.
I muttered to myself:
None of them are good people. They either covet my little sister or try to monopolize her.
"Second brother, you go first. I still have something to say to the clan leader." Hu Jiaojiao smiled and declined politely.
Hu Qinggao then reluctantly left alone.
"Jiaojiao, I'll wait for you outside." Long Mo pinched Hu Jiaojiao's soft and boneless little hand and walked out.
He felt relieved to leave Jiaojiao with the patriarch.
It just so happened that he had another thing to do.
Soon, only Hu Jiaojiao and the clan leader were left in the room.
The clan leader suppressed the tiredness in his eyes and gave Hu Jiaojiao a kind and gentle smile:
"Jiaojiao, do you have anything to say to me..."
Before he finished speaking, he saw Hu Jiaojiao pursing her lips with a serious expression on her face.
"Chief, something must have happened in the tribe."
She interrupted the patriarch in a deep voice.
Although the clan leader tried his best to hide it, those deep blue eyes could not deceive her, and one look at the clan leader showed that he could not sleep at night.
What was it that made him so worried that he couldn't sleep
Only the tribe matters.
The patriarch was slightly stunned, then gave a bitter smile.
"How come you are so smart?" He sighed and shook his head, "I didn't want to tell you so early."
"You just came back from outside and haven't had a good rest yet. It's all because I, the clan leader, am useless and can't even handle such a small matter."
He originally wanted to keep it a secret for a few days so that Hu Jiaojiao could rest in peace.
However, Hu Jiaojiao disagreed:
"Chief, the tribe belongs to everyone. If something goes wrong, of course we should all find a way to solve it together. Why would you shoulder it all by yourself?"
The clan leader let out a long breath.
Seeing his haggard face, as if he had been worried for a long time, even his hair had turned a lot whiter, and there was a hint of reluctance in Hu Jiaojiao's bright eyes.
A clear voice asked:
"Chief, is it possible that the tribe is running out of supplies?"
The patriarch was startled, with a look of surprise in his eyes.
"You, you know..."
The tribe originally had more than enough supplies to get through the winter, and even had a surplus.
But after Xie Man arrived with the previous 700 orcs, the tribe’s supplies began to decrease rapidly.
In less than two months, supplies were already running out.
The chief knew that Xie Man and the group of orcs had been very frugal. They were not greedy beasts, but there were too many orcs and the supplies were simply not enough.
If this continues, we won’t even make it through this month, let alone the winter.
How could he not be anxious
Having more orcs is a good thing, but without supplies, they will all starve to death.
"Sure enough." Hu Jiaojiao half lowered her eyes and murmured.
She had guessed this day when she decided to bring them back.
He calculated the time and rushed back from the Leihe tribe.
I’m just worried that there won’t be enough supplies in the tribe.
The chief looked so tired probably because she had brought back another hundred orcs this time, and he felt too much pressure and couldn't feed them.
"Alas." The chief sighed, "I didn't expect that we could not survive this long and cold winter even though we stopped the wolf orcs' attack..."
If it really doesn't work, we can only save the supplies for the females and cubs.
Hu Jiaojiao raised her eyes and said briskly:
"Who says we can't make it?"
