It took a tremendous amount of effort to drag the brown bear and the wolf, whose body had already been mauled, to the water's edge.

The dagger was stuck firmly in the brown bear's skull, and I couldn't pull it out. In the end, I had to use a large rock next to me to smash the brown bear's head to pieces before I could finally pull the knife out.

The handle is slightly bent, but it doesn't affect its use.

After a whole afternoon of work, I was covered in blood, but I finally managed to remove the pelts from the brown bear and the wolf.

They chopped off the brown bear's four paws, butchered the meat, and then Wang Xiaoxiao and Xiao Qiang carried it into the cave.

After I had taken care of everything, I dragged the two heavy corpses back to the top of the mountain.

They only returned to the cave after the leaves had dried properly.

Liu Jiaojiao had calmed down and saw us return, her face showing a hint of embarrassment.

Xu Wei sat down indignantly and told us about Liu Jiaojiao's ordeal.

It turns out that after Bai Wei drove us out, he became the sole ruler and seized all the supplies.

All food and medicine were under his and Lin Xubo's control.

Lin Xubo, through flattery and sycophancy, rose to the position of second-in-command.

The two of them basically never went out to look for things; they just sat in the camp and continued to act like royalty.

But food became increasingly scarce, and everyone started to go hungry.

That night, Lin Xubo and his friends caught two rabbits by sheer luck, and everyone was overjoyed.

Bai Wei felt he had done a good job as a leader, so he drank a lot of red wine, as did Lin Xubo.

He got a little drunk and started having wicked thoughts about some of the girls in the camp.

Although Liu Jiaojiao wasn't the prettiest among them, she was petite and adorable. She also had a cute dimple when she smiled.

Relying on his status among the group, Lin Xubo pulled and tugged at Jiaojiao, saying that as long as she followed him, he would never let Jiaojiao suffer any grievances.

Jiaojiao disagreed with Lin Xubo's lewd appearance and they got into an argument.

Who would have thought that Lin Xubo, that beast, would drag Jiaojiao into the treehouse in front of everyone and nearly rape her.

Jiaojiao completely broke down. In a moment of desperation, she grabbed a nearby wine bottle and hit Lin Xubo on the head until he bled before struggling to run away.

To avoid incurring Lin Xubo's wrath, the others in the camp ignored him and pretended not to see anything.

Jiaojiao was completely devastated and desperate. In the end, she escaped from there overnight, disregarding her own safety, and went without food or water for a whole day and night.

Finally, in despair, he decided to end his life and plunged into the sea to commit suicide, but unexpectedly, he bumped into me and was saved.

“I’ve known all along that Bai Wei and his gang are no good, and Lin Xubo is a habitual bully who uses others to intimidate others. All my colleagues in the camp are just trying to protect themselves, so who would care about your life or death? But you ran away, what about the other female colleagues?”

Wang Xiaoxiao was furious. Liu Jiaojiao's eyes reddened and she was about to cry again after hearing Wang Xiaoxiao's words.

"That place is in complete chaos now. We've almost finished our food, and there's barely any rice left in that half-bag. But everyone is angry but dares not speak out. When it comes to their own interests, they all act like cowards. Those few are probably in grave danger too..."

At this point, Liu Jiao's expression suddenly turned somewhat awkward, and she looked up at us, explaining in a low voice.

"When Bai Wei and the others were kicking you out, I actually had this idea in mind, but I was just too cowardly... I'm so sorry, so sorry!"

I watched Liu Jiaojiao cry her heart out, tears streaming down her face, but I knew in my heart that...

She would never have taken such a big risk to rush out if she hadn't really been unable to stay there any longer.

When Bai Wei kicked us out, we had nothing. I doubt anyone would believe that the four of us not only survived starvation and wild animal attacks, but also thrived.

However, people are selfish, and it's understandable that a young girl like her would have concerns and worries.

He quickly waved his hand and said, "Don't be afraid. Since you're lucky enough to have found us, and we're colleagues, we won't let you go hungry. Just stay here and relax. Anyway, this tree hole is big enough, and I won't bully you."

Xiao Qiang stood aside and snorted coldly.

"Don't exaggerate. We're not doing very well right now. We're lacking things, and if we really want to stay here, we'll have to earn our own living."

I know Xiao Qiang is speaking up for me, but this matter has little to do with Liu Jiaojiao, so there's no need to take my anger out on her.

"It's alright, as long as we're united, we won't starve. You guys get some food first, and I'll go find some dry straw to make a bed for Liu Jiaojiao so she can get a good rest tonight."

Liu Jiaojiao thanked us repeatedly with gratitude.

I got up and left the tree hole, but to my surprise, Xiao Qiang followed me out from behind.

I could tell from her expression that she had something to say.

"Why isn't the beautiful Ms. Xiao satisfied with my arrangements?"

Xiao Qiang glared at me: "It's not a matter of being satisfied or not, it's just that Bai Wei and his group can't survive on their side anymore. I'm afraid that in the end everyone will come to you for help, and the situation will only get more chaotic. How much more difficult will that be for you?"

Actually, after hearing about Liu Jiaojiao's experience, I felt that if I could really win everyone over to my side, it wouldn't be such a bad thing.

The reason Bai Wei and his group angered everyone was that they couldn't see the reality of the situation clearly and still thought they were high and mighty bosses.

The most important thing right now is to survive. They keep oppressing the people below them, and there will always be a day when they rebel.

At that time, Bai Wei and Lin Xubo will no longer have anyone to associate with them, and their situation will be even worse than ours.

I've never been a good person. They treated me like that before, and now I'm happy to see them make a fool of themselves.

But these colleagues are innocent. As long as they don't do anything immoral, taking them in wouldn't be a big problem.

"I have my own plans for this, don't worry. But after what happened with Liu Jiao, their group will probably break up sooner or later, so we still need to make two preparations. After all, they have a lot of supplies that we urgently need."
