"I came here this time to take Xiao's cub away! The cub is innocent and I want to raise him. He shouldn't affect your new life."
Lin said with a serious face.
Wei was stunned for a moment, then he remembered that he hadn't seen the cub since he met Wen Nuan. He turned around and looked at Wen Nuan.
Wen Nuan then looked up, glanced at Wei, then looked at Lin who was full of hope, and just shook her head.
After Lin saw it, he frowned. Wen Nuan was unwilling!
He had already prepared his arguments and was confident that he could convince them. After all, the cub was a thorn in their hearts.
"The cub has been taken away and sent to the Ripple Goddess. She will raise the cub."
Wen Nuan said bluntly, and Lin Hewei was stunned.
Lin was a little angry, he said in a deep voice:
"What right do you have to do that? I'm his ancestor!"
"What rights do I have? Of course I have rights, he is my son!"
"Then you should discuss it with me! I don't agree!"
Lin's anger was rising, and he was obviously very dissatisfied with the result. Wei was also a little unhappy and stood in front of Wen Nuan.
Wen Nuan came out from behind Wei and said with a sarcastic smile on her face:
"Of course you don't agree! What can that child learn by being raised by you? Learn hatred! Become your puppet! What have you turned Xiaojiao into?
Even if I don't like this cub, he is still my flesh and blood. Even if I cannot give him all my love, I must give him a bright future.
Following the envoy of God, his life is safe, he can learn more, and he doesn't have to stay in the tribe and be pointed at by the tribe members, living under the shadow of Xiao all the time!"
After the words fell, the cave fell into deathly silence. Lin's anger dissipated in an instant, and he seemed to become even older.
After a while, he turned around and left to look for a witch.
After Lin left, Wen Nuan fell down on the stone bed. She had just fought with the former clan leader, which had exhausted all her courage and strength. Now that he was gone, she felt her legs a little weak.
A trace of distress flashed across Wei's eyes, and then he walked over, sat beside the stone bed, took Wen Nuan's hand and asked:
"Wen Nuan, is this what you really think? I don't mind raising the cub. Just like you said, you went through a lot of trouble to conceive and give birth to him. After all, the cub is innocent."
Wen Nuan's expression had eased a lot, and she returned Wei's hand and said softly:
"I considered it for a long time before deciding. This decision is the best for the cub. Even if you don't mind and are willing to raise him, if he asks you in the future why your beast forms are different, how will you answer?
There are also people in the tribe who gossip about him. If he knew his true birthplace, how would he face you? How would he face his friends? This is the best way I can think of for the cub."
Wen Nuan confirmed it again, explaining to Wei and convincing herself at the same time.
The cub that Lin was thinking about was now in Lianyi's arms.
After a month, the little boy was able to see the outside world clearly. The first person he saw when he opened his eyes was not Wen Nuan or Wu, but Lian Yi.
So he was extremely attached to Lianyi. He had just eaten and was nestling in Lianyi's arms, having his fur stroked. After a while, he started to snore.
“It’s a good age to be able to sleep after eating!”
Lianyi stroked the little cub again, then gently placed the little guy in a basket wrapped in animal skins. She covered the basket with the animal skins to block out the light from outside, allowing the little cub to sleep more peacefully.
Meng walked in at this time and said softly to Lianyi:
"Lin is here and wants to see you!"
Lianyi knew the other party's purpose, nodded, and left the innermost cave, not wanting to disturb the little guy's sleep.
Seeing Lin, who looked a little older, Lianyi smiled and said before he could speak:
"I know why you came to see me. You should have met Wen Nuan and Wei. Wen Nuan should have made her words very clear. I hope you can respect their decision.
I just want to tell you that you cannot raise Lei to adulthood and your life is about to come to an end. What will happen to Lei after you return to the arms of the Beast God?
At that time, he was not yet an adult, so Wen Nuan took him back to raise him? Perhaps Wen Nuan and Wei would have their own cubs by then, and they would be able to take better care of Lei? Is this what you want to see?"
Lianyi asked three questions in a row, explaining the situation of the little cub Lei, leaving Lin Du speechless.
"I swear to the Beast God that I will train Lei into an excellent orc and let him walk upright in the beast world!"
As the words fell, the beast mark between Lianyi's eyebrows flashed, and the oath was fulfilled.
Lin sighed deeply and made one final request:
"I want to see Lei."
"Sure, he's sleeping inside. Let Meng take you to see it!"
She would naturally meet the last request.
Meng had been standing aside and listening silently. At this time, he stepped forward and took Lin, who was a little hunched, to meet Lei.
Lin ultimately failed to bring Lei back and left Lianyi's residence somewhat disappointed, just in time to pass by Du who was out picking mushrooms.
After the rainy season, a variety of mushrooms grew in the mountains and forests. Lianyi specifically informed the tiger tribe of the non-toxic and edible fungi so that they could collect some when the rain stopped.
Lianyi also taught the females how to dry the moisture of the mushrooms, and then store them as dried vegetables. Some of them could be cut into cubes and stir-fried with meat, and more salt could be added. The jars could be sealed in pottery jars and placed in a cool and dry cave, where they could be eaten until the cold season.
Meng had to help take care of the little cub Lei, so Du took on the task of picking mushrooms, mainly because Lianyi loved to eat them.
"Lin didn't take Lei away."
The only sentence spoken is the affirmative sentence.
He nodded vigorously and said:
"How much have you picked today? The messenger told me to start packing. If it doesn't rain in the next two days, we will set off."
He put down the rattan basket on his shoulder and said directly:
"Not bad, I found a place full of these things, you take care of this basket first, and I'll pick some more."
"good."
It didn't rain for the next two days, and Lianyi and his group left the tiger tribe on the second sunny day.
After saying something to Wen Nuan, Wei escorted Lian Yi and the others out of the tiger tribe's territory. When leaving, he handed Lian Yi a smaller animal hide package.
"God's messenger, thank you for everything you have done for me and Wen Nuan. We will live a good life, and I'll leave Lei in your care.
Inside are the animal skin clothes that Wen Nuan prepared for Lei, so that he can wear them when he transforms into human form. There is also a set of lighter deerskin clothes that Wen Nuan specially made for you, suitable for wearing in the rainy season."
"Okay, thank Wen Nuan for me."
Lianyi accepted it generously. The temperature had dropped a bit in the second month of the rainy season, and linen clothes were no longer suitable to wear.
After a brief farewell, Lianyi and his group set off towards the seaside where the mermaids lived.
