After the swallowing sound died down, the room fell silent.
Then Canitus' voice broke the silence, "Why?"
Song Sanniang was a little confused, "What?"
Canitus looked up at her and asked, "Why did you bring me back? And you asked that witch doctor to treat my injuries. It must have cost a lot, right?"
"Why did you do this to me? I'm sure I didn't know you before, and you don't know me either."
Canitus can still remember the scene when he met Song Sanniang.
He had just left his tribe and had been living the life of a wandering orc for a few days. He had been pessimistic and negative because of the pain in his legs, and secretly lamented that he might die one day.
When Song Sanniang appeared, he was trying to hunt a red-eyed rabbit but had failed. He looked depressed and felt like a waste.
Then Song Sanniang suddenly appeared, holding the dead rabbit he had just let go in her mouth.
Canitus watched the strange orc place the rabbit in front of him, and when she spoke he noticed that it was actually a female.
Why would a female tiger suddenly appear near the wolf tribe? Is it a conspiracy or something?
However, his immobile right front leg brought him back to reality, and in the end he ate the rabbit, and then the female spoke.
"My name is Tigonis, you can also call me Tigo. I think you are good-looking and you are pleasing to my eye. How about following me from now on..."
In the end, for some unknown reason, or perhaps because the sunlight that day shone so beautifully on the female, he agreed to follow her without even knowing her situation...
"I told you, I'm attracted to you."
"W-what?"
Canitus was interrupted from his recollections by the voice, and these words echoed in his mind.
Is the reason that simple?
Song Sanniang nodded.
Only then did Canitus realize that he had asked the question in a trance.
"Otherwise, besides your body, do you have anything else that I can do something bad to?"
When Canitus heard this, he agreed. He had nothing else. If it was because of his status, although he used to be the tribe leader, he was no longer the leader. Even if Song Sanniang was doing it purely for his health, he was still a lame disabled orc.
Only that face can be seen, but in order to survive after wandering, he has always maintained the form of an animal, and Song Sanniang has never seen this face of his.
so……
Canitus thought about it for a long time, and finally ruled out the correct answer given by Song Sanniang. He concluded that Song Sanniang must have heard about his heroic figure when he led the wolf tribe, so she rescued him when he was in trouble.
Song Sanniang had no way of knowing what was going on in Canitus' mind. After all, it was unlikely to see subtle changes in expression on a furry wolf's face.
Seeing that he seemed to be lost in thought, Song Sanniang probably accepted her reasoning, so she continued speaking.
"I've asked Serwin. Your injuries will need to be healed until at least the end of the harvest season. During this time, you can stay in my room. You agreed to take care of me before. Okay, that's about it. I hope you don't have anything else to say."
Seeing that he was obedient and had no objection, Song Sanniang let go of the wolf's mouth.
"Okay, I'm going out to help my mother cook. You can rest for a while."
Canitus watched the female, who perfectly switched between ferocity and gentleness, leave the house, then put his head on the bed and stared blankly.
Song Sanniang left the house, her face immediately replaced with a flattering smile, and she went to show her courtesy to her mother.
But as soon as she approached, she was pushed aside by her father. "I'm here to help your mother. We don't need you for the time being. Besides, your cooking skills are worse than mine. You'll definitely be a hindrance."
The latter sentence was probably said by Biss in a mumbled manner to save face for Song Sanniang.
Seeing that she couldn't get in, Song Sanniang didn't force it. She walked out of the house and stared at the disappeared food in the yard. She had just chatted with Canitus for a few minutes, but why did it feel like a much longer time had passed?
Luo Er stuck his head out and shouted to Song Sanniang.
"Come inside to eat."
Song Sanniang came back to her senses and went into the house to eat.
After eating, Song Sanniang took Canitus's portion into the room.
But later, when she was cleaning the utensils, Roll passed by inadvertently and said to her that from now on, Canitus would eat from the new bowl in her hand, and then left.
Song Sanniang didn't react at first, but after a while she realized the meaning behind that sentence.
Picking up the cleaned basin, it was rough, but you could tell the person who made it was very serious. Looking at it, Song Sanniang could still imagine the scene of Biss digging carefully with his claws.
From that day on, Canites lived in their house with the consent of Roll and Bis.
However, Bis was the only one hurt in this incident and he was very sad because that brat occupied his daughter's room. So from that day on, Song Sanniang and Luo Er slept in the same room, and he could only sleep on a straw mat in the room at the entrance.
God of Beasts, why is he always the one who gets hurt...
Song Sanniang was unaware of her old father's sorrow. She was busy hunting. In the first few days, she joined the hunting team and went out hunting together. However, because of her female identity, she could not get a place in the front row and had to be on the sidelines.
There were even a few single male orcs who wanted to show off in front of her and would immediately stand in front of her as soon as they heard any movement.
Even if she told them directly that she already had an orc she liked and that they shouldn't waste their time on her, they wouldn't believe her and would think that she just didn't like them and was making up excuses. Even so, it didn't stop them from continuing to protect her like a guardian angel.
This behavior seriously affected her and the hunting team's operations. She went there for two days and finally left. This was better for both parties.
Song Sanniang finally returned to the mode of fighting alone. As for Bis's father's request to follow her, she shook her head and refused. After all, unless there were special circumstances, every family should have at least one orc go out to participate in hunting.
Every tribe has a hunting team, and the rules are similar. The tribe gathers the orcs together to go out hunting to increase the success rate of hunting. At the same time, the orcs in the team help each other and reduce some unnecessary casualties.
If an orc dies unexpectedly while out with a hunting party, his family will be comforted by the hunting party's prey over the next ten days.
If there are no healthy male orcs in the dead orc's family to join the hunting team.
Some of the hunting team's prey also went to these orc families.
So there was no reason for their family to be treated specially. In the following days, Song Sanniang always returned safely with her harvest and was rarely injured.
But once there is a scratch, Biss will not be happy with Canites.
