The cave fell into silence, but none of the animals raised a voice in protest.
The productivity of the orc continent is low, and the orcs are struggling to survive. Most of them don't even have the qualifications to struggle. It is impossible for them to adopt a cub that can't transform, both from a practical and human perspective.
And if Ji Nuan had not spoken up to adopt the little lion cub, the little orc would have been sent out of the tribe and left to fend for himself.
Ji Nuan originally liked this furry, fat cub, but single female cubs like her did not meet the tribe’s adoption requirements.
It’s different now. No one in the tribe is willing to adopt this little orc who can’t transform. So if she adopts him, no one will say anything!
In the end, Ji Nuan took the herbs given to him by the witch doctor and carried the little fat boy back to his cave.
She placed the wilted little lion cub on the stone bed, brought in a lot of dry grass from outside, spread a thick layer of it on the inside of the stone bed, and then covered it with her softest animal skin before carefully placing the little lion cub on it.
The little fellow glanced at her from time to time with his black eyes, and then used his only intact fat paw to push the soft new bed under him, raised his round little head and glanced at Ji Nuan.
The corner of Ji Nuan's mouth twitched. This little thing's eyes just now clearly showed a feeling of "Well done, I am very satisfied".
He stroked the fur on the little lion's head, causing the little guy to roar in dissatisfaction. He also raised his fat paws and rubbed his little head a few times. The little lion had a look of disgust on his face, and his little ears twitched when he tickled them, which made Ji Nuan very happy.
It was still early outside, and the beastmen from the hunting team had not returned yet. Ji Nuan carried her basket on her back, bent over and said to the fat kid on the bed, "Kid, I'm going out to find food. You stay in bed and don't move, otherwise your wound won't heal. I'll come back and make you something delicious later! Be good!"
The chubby little lion raised his black eyes and glanced at her, then placed his little head on his uninjured chubby paw and howled lazily twice to show that he understood. Seeing that the little lion closed his eyes and fell asleep, Ji Nuan let down the animal skin curtain at the entrance of the cave and walked quickly towards the grove.
In fact, after Ji Nuan was rescued by Xiu Yan last time, she had a bold idea in her mind. The sharp-toothed grass that paralyzed her body for a whole day last time could be said to be a natural anesthetic, and it did not have any side effects.
The lion cub's front legs and both hind legs were broken. In order to restore them to their original state, the bones need to be straightened. Even adults cannot bear the pain, and she doesn't want the fat cub to suffer this.
Ji Nuan was busy running around in the woods for a long time, and finally caught five cuckoo beasts. She also picked some sour fruits, spicy fruits, cumin fruits and several common fruits. She then carefully placed the basket under a big tree, took a wooden stick, and walked towards the place where she found the stinky fruit last time.
She thought she would have to be very close to the stinky fruit tree to find the sharp-toothed grass, but before she saw the stinky fruit tree, she had already grabbed a handful of sharp-toothed grass on the animal skin in her hand.
Ji Nuan searched around for a while and collected a few sharp-toothed grasses. She then wrapped them in animal skins, turned back to the big tree, carried her basket on her back, and walked quickly towards the tribe.
