After hearing what Wen Nuan said, Lianyi said that although this female was a little delicate, she still had brains and knew how to protect herself. She ran away quickly when she realized something was wrong.
Just when Wen Nuan was about to continue speaking, Du, Meng and Wei all made a gesture to keep quiet. Lianyi raised his heroic thick eyebrows, obviously noticing something new.
On the cliff were Xiao and the other orcs. The scent they were tracking was interrupted here.
"Xiao, the smell disappears here!"
"They shouldn't disappear out of thin air."
"Let's go down along these vines and take a look. If I'm right, there is a cave in the middle of the cliff."
This is the sound of a whistle.
He had heard Wei mention it once, and although he had never been here before, he remembered it when he got here.
"Okay, the two of us will go down, and you guys help us keep an eye on the movements below."
Two tiger orcs immediately pulled the thick vines and slid down slowly, while the other three pricked up their ears and listened carefully.
Everyone heard the ripples of movement on the cliff, but Wen Nuan was the only one who didn't hear it. She shrank into Wei's arms and asked in a low voice:
"Did Xiao chase us?"
Wei just nodded and didn't say anything.
Meng and Du looked at each other. They obviously wanted to go out, but were stopped by Lianyi. She didn't want to confront the people of the Tiger Tribe now, so this time she communicated with the plants.
The vines that were originally hanging at the entrance of the cave seemed to have received an order and began to grow rapidly. In a moment, they completely blocked the entrance, and continued to grow inward until they stopped completely at where they were.
After the two orcs followed the vines down, they found a cave, but unfortunately the entrance was blocked by wildly growing vines. They used their claws to tear off some vines, but unfortunately there were more vines waiting for them inside.
The two looked at each other and felt that the invader who took away Wen Nuan would not hide here. After all, this place was full of vines, and except for the vines they destroyed, there were no other signs of orcs entering.
"Shall we look further down?"
"good!"
The two orcs continued to go down, but unfortunately they were almost at the bottom and still found nothing.
"How could they disappear for no reason? Could they fly?"
One of the orcs grumbled quietly as the scent was completely gone.
"Yue, you are right! Maybe the invaders are bird-type beastmen. If they are, it will be difficult for us to track them."
"Then let's go up first and tell Xiao."
"Walk!"
The two orcs quickly climbed up the vines and told Xiao their guess.
"Are you sure there's no hiding place down there? What about that cave?"
"The cave is filled with vines. There is not a single space left. If someone went in, they would have to tear the vines apart. We didn't find any damaged vines! We continued down and there was no smell of strange orcs."
Yue said directly.
After hearing Yue's words, Xiao frowned tightly. He always had a bad feeling. Then he said:
"Let's search again along the way we came. Maybe they lured us here on purpose."
Xiao had another guess, then waved his hand and immediately returned along the original route with his companions. Perhaps they could find something before the smell dissipated.
After Xiao left, Lianyi did not remove the vines, but left a space for the three orcs to rest. This comfortable and warm little cave naturally belonged to Lianyi and Wen Nuan.
"We have found a lot of food. We don't need to hunt for three to five days. The orcs outside will turn back if they can't find warmth. You all should stay away from going out for the time being."
Lianyi spoke directly to the three people.
"yes!"
The three of them responded in unison.
Just as Lianyi expected, Xiao went back along the original route but still found nothing. Not giving up, he led his men back to the cliff. This time he went down to take a look himself and indeed there were no traces left by any orcs.
Xiao still didn't give up. He stayed on the cliff for seven days. If Wen Nuan was really taken away by the orcs, she would need the witch's treatment as she was pregnant with a cub and had lost so much blood. The orcs would definitely not be able to hide for long, unless they wanted to kill Wen Nuan and leave her with two lives.
Unfortunately, after seven days, they still found nothing, so Xiaocai took Yue and the others away, but he looked very bad. They followed the same path they came from, continuing to look for clues left by Wen Nuan, hoping to find Wen Nuan.
After Xiao and the others had completely left, Lianyi removed the vines that were blocking the cave, and then said to Wen Nuan:
"Originally I wanted to go see the tiger tribe witch right now, but unfortunately your body won't allow it. We have to stay out for at least two months and return to the tribe in the last month of the harvest season. By then you will be eleven months pregnant and about to give birth. With us here, Xiao won't dare to attack you."
“God of No Ripple, please forgive my selfishness. I only want to prove Wei’s innocence, but I don’t want to raise this cub.
After all, Xiao forced me to have him. I can't face this cub because he reminds me of the pointing and pointing at me and the injustice I suffered. Xiao is hypocritical.
The cub was born and grew up with these burdens, I really...
When she said this, Wen Nuan covered her face. She really didn't want to face the birth of this cub.
"So what do you want me to do?"
Lianyi narrowed her eyes and asked calmly.
"If possible, I want to give birth to this cub in advance. As long as I can prove that he was not conceived by Wei when the accident happened, it will be fine."
Wen Nuan didn't dare to look at Wei's expression and directly expressed her thoughts.
"You are too naive. If Xiao insists that he has already confessed his feelings to you and that you are already a partner, the early birth of the child is the best proof."
"But the witch checked for me and found that this cub was indeed conceived after I was forced to do so."
"Don't forget that Xiao's father is the clan leader, and the premature birth of the child just gave him an excuse to quibble. Since you want to prove Wei's innocence, don't give him any chance to refute.
If you don't want the child, I will take him away and leave the Tiger Tribe completely. After all, the things between the three of you will affect the growth of the cub."
"I was not thoughtful enough. Thank you for your advice. In order to make up for the mistake I made, I will do as you said."
Wen Nuan wiped the tears from her face and quietly lay back on the animal skin mattress. She stared at the top of the cave in a daze, stroking her belly with her hand, and whispered:
"It's the mother beast's fault. I hope you don't blame her."
Wei looked at Wen Nuan with a complicated expression. He didn't know whether he should persuade her not to do this, or persuade himself to let go of his prejudice and accept the cub.
Du and Meng did not say anything. After all, this was Wei's business, and they were not Wei, so it was not convenient for them to give him advice.
But when Lianyi said that she would take the unwelcome cub away, Meng's eyes lit up.
After reaching a consensus with Wen Nuan, Lian Yi and his group left the tiger tribe's territory after Wen Nuan's fetus stabilized and found a secluded place to live.
