"Medicine, you owe me ten days' worth of food, so I'll give you the medicine." Su Tang said earnestly.

"Pfft..." Haji felt a sweet taste in his throat and spat out another mouthful of blood.

"You're so badly injured, you need to make a decision quickly. If you don't treat your wounds soon, you're really beyond saving," Su Tang reminded him with great concern.

Haji: "..." He suspected that this female was trying to force him to his death.

To make the performance convincing and avoid detection, the injuries on his body were all real.

In the past, those tribes would at least provide him with a cave to stay in, but now he's out in the wind all night. Without treatment, he's really going to die here.

After much deliberation, Haji gritted his teeth and said, "Fine, I'll exchange ten days' worth of food for the medicine."

Su Tang immediately gave him the medicine.

"You now owe thirteen days' worth of food. I wish you a speedy recovery!"

Haji was inwardly spitting blood, but on the surface he still had to pretend to be grateful.

This is infuriating!

Once he completes this mission, he must return and make sure the chief gives him a female so he can torture her severely!

The orcs followed Su Tang away, completely unaware that there was anything wrong with her actions.

In the ancient continent, there was never such a thing as eating for free.

Every one of them, even the females, earns their food through their own labor. They dig their own caves, and even if they don't, they repay the debt through their own labor.

Free? No way!

After Su Tang left, Haji applied the medicine to the wound. The wound, which had been painful, felt a cool sensation, and the pain was reduced by more than half.

He was shocked!

This medicine is so effective?

This tribe actually has such a good thing! That's great! He's going to do a great job this time!

Once the chief conquers this tribe, everything here, including the females, will be theirs!

...

In the woods at the foot of the mountain, a brownish-yellow figure wandered around.

Since the incident at the cave, Lion Feather has been forbidden from approaching any construction projects, and naturally, he hasn't had a chance to see Su Tang.

He could only watch from afar on the outside.

Sure enough, Su Tang actually helped a male examine his injury and even gave him medicine.

He stared intently at the medicine in Haji's hand.

That belongs to Ah Tang; he wants it.

After Haji finished applying the medicine, he suddenly felt a chilly gaze behind him. He turned around and saw a lion-clan beastman emerging from the bushes.

"Who are you, and what are you doing hiding there?" Haji asked warily. He shouldn't have revealed anything by talking to himself just now, right?

Lionfeather looked at him with a friendly expression. "I am an orc from here. You are injured. Do you need help?"

Haji looked Lion Feather up and down suspiciously.

The orc looked honest and seemed to have come to help out of kindness.

Apart from that damned female, the orcs in this tribe all seemed quite kind and simple.

However, he was still worried and said, "I need to dig a cave, but I don't have any food for you."

Lion Feather quickly waved his hand, "I don't want food. I'll help you dig a cave. Can you give me the medicine you left over?"

Haji pondered for a moment. His wounds had already been treated with medicine, and he didn't need the rest. Anyway, once the leader had pacified this place, all the medicine would be theirs. He might as well give it to this lion-clan beastman to help him dig a cave.

"Okay." He nodded in agreement.

Lion Feather's face lit up with joy, and the two successfully exchanged items.

With the addition of the bamboo bear beastmen, the locations on this hilltop have been mostly allocated, leaving Haji with no choice but to dig caves in remote areas.

There were no other orcs nearby.

No one saw Lion Feather appear.

Haji urged Lion Feather to dig a cave quickly, feeling secretly pleased; he had made a profit this time.

Lion Feather's beastly form was strong; the stone couldn't withstand more than three blows from his claws.

Haji was very satisfied with the way Lion Feather was working, completely unaware that Lion Feather hadn't checked the terrain at all when digging the cave; he was just digging randomly.

The stones inside were transported out in trip after trip, and a cave was quickly formed.

Sweating profusely, Lion Feather came out to find Haji after digging the cave.

"I've finished digging your cave, can I have the medicine now?"

Seeing how honest he was, Haji naturally wanted to fleece him, and holding the medicine, he said:

"I need to check it."

He and Lion Feather walked into the cave together. Inside were two caves, one large and one small. The air circulated outside, but during the snowy season, the wind and snow would not get in.

Haji was still not satisfied. "Your cave is too small. Such a precious medicine needs another cave."

From now on, this tribe will belong to them, and the cave will also be theirs, of course, the bigger the better.

Lion Feather, ever the hard worker, agreed, “Okay, then I’ll dig a little bigger.”

Haji was supervising the work from the side, constantly pointing and making unreasonable demands, but Lion Feather completed them all.

"I've done everything you said. Can you give me the medicine now?" Lion Feather asked good-naturedly.

Haji looked at the spacious cave with great satisfaction, but still gave Lion Feather the medicine as if he had gotten the better deal.

Having received the medicine, Lion Feather walked out with a joyful expression.

Haji couldn't wait to lie down and enjoy his cave.

He closed his eyes, but felt as if sand was falling on his face. When he opened his eyes, he saw that the stone directly above his head was about to fall.

"Click-clack..."

The surrounding stones also developed cracks.

Before he could react, countless stones collapsed with a loud crash.

"Ahh!"

Before Haji could escape, he was buried inside by falling rocks.

Lion Feather turned around and saw that the cave he had just dug had collapsed.

Haji, his head bleeding from the impact, crawled out of the rock and angrily cursed:
