"Quickly, take him away and find Ye Wu to examine him. There's still time; hopefully, he can be saved!"
"What exactly happened? He's a level two warrior in our tribe. He's been coughing up blood since just now. If this continues, he'll die sooner or later!"
"How many incidents have occurred today? How could this happen? Why are so many people in our tribe experiencing large-scale outbreaks of disease today?"
"Ye Wu, hurry! Please, save him! He's my good brother, he can't die!"
"Calm down, everyone calm down, this is too chaotic! Let the patrols continue their patrols, you guys come with me!"
chaos!
The entire Qingye tribe is in complete chaos!
As Li Qing and his two companions descended the mountain, before they even reached the tribe, they heard shouts coming from afar.
To Li Qing, these sounds were like monkeys talking, chattering away, and he couldn't understand a word they were saying. He could only try to understand them by combining what was happening in front of him with Yi's few simple translations.
Soon, Li Qing roughly understood what had happened.
A massive disease outbreak has occurred in the Qingye tribe!
From second-level soldiers to ordinary people, many have already been infected!
The Qingye tribe was not large to begin with, and this outbreak of disease immediately kept the small tribe extremely busy. The few healthy people were running around the tribe, and often before they could finish dealing with one thing, another problem would arise.
"What on earth happened? How could this happen?!"
Manghu and Yiyue grew increasingly anxious. Before they even reached the tribe, they couldn't help but greet Li Qing and hurriedly ran towards it.
Faced with such a situation, Li Qing naturally couldn't ignore it. He sighed and followed the two, running after them.
As Li Qing approached the tribe, he saw several warriors stop Mang Hu and his companion, seemingly asking them some questions. However, since the two were from the tribe, they were allowed in after a few simple exchanges. It was Li Qing who was stopped by them.
"Who goes there!"
The warrior shouted loudly in the language of the Qingye tribe.
Li Qing had no choice but to explain to the other party.
However, the two sides couldn't communicate verbally, so Li Qing had to explain for a long time. The guard not only didn't let him pass, but became even ruder to him. He shouted to the back, and soon another soldier came over. Behind them was a sturdy little wild boar, which grunted a few times at Li Qing, the "outsider," waiting for its master to give an order.
"It seems these two guys don't speak their tribe's language. This is bad. Manghu and his men went in in a hurry and didn't explain their identities to these guards. This is a big problem."
If words didn't work, then he had to resort to gestures. Li Qing frantically gestured a few times towards the backs of Mang Hu and his companion, who were still out of sight, then pointed to himself, and finally smiled at the soldier, "I came with them..."
However, such actions did not seem to convince the two soldiers. On the contrary, Li Qing's deliberately "good guy" smile made the two men even more suspicious. In any case, the two men each took a step back and shouted to the wild boar behind them. The wild boar took a few steps forward, its hooves pounding the ground, looking eager to attack.
Li Qing felt a headache coming on. This wild boar was nowhere near the size of the one the hunting team had encountered before. Li Qing was confident that even if the boar really attacked, he could at least fight it to a standstill. But if he did that, wouldn't it be like telling the boar, "I'm not a good person, I'm here to cause trouble, just kill me"? Even if Mang Hu stood up for him, he would probably be unable to clear his name no matter what.
As the wild boar drew ever closer, Li Qing was at a loss for what to do. Just then, he suddenly saw a large black dog running towards him in front of him!
Li Qing recognized the black figure all too well and couldn't help but exclaim with delight, "Big Black!"
He immediately forgot about the men with unfriendly expressions beside him and ran towards Big Black.
"Big Black, how are you? What happened to you here? Are the hunting team inside too?"
Li Qing ran to Dahei and excitedly picked it up.
But as soon as Li Qing picked up Da Hei, he felt something was wrong. There was a sticky feeling in his hands, which gave Li Qing a bad feeling. He let go and looked at his palm. Soon he was shocked to find that there was a sticky patch of blood on his palm!
"Big Black, you're badly injured!"
Li Qing exclaimed in shock.
He stroked the black dog's fur, which was no longer soft. Upon closer inspection, he saw several places on its back where the skin and flesh were exposed, and in some particularly badly injured areas, the white bone was faintly visible. Its tail was no longer as long and black as before, but resembled a long-used feather duster, with scattered black hairs mixed with blood and wrinkled together.
Big Black's legs were also badly injured. When Li Qing held it, it instinctively tried to stand on its hind legs, but it could only maintain this posture for less than a second before its legs could not support its body weight and it collapsed in Li Qing's arms.
Big Black's fur was completely black, and seeing Big Black in the Green Leaf Tribe had made Li Qing extremely excited, which is why he hadn't noticed Big Black's injuries earlier. It was only now that Li Qing saw how badly Big Black was injured.
Li Qing's hands, which were holding Da Hei, began to tremble slightly.
His heart was bleeding.
"Big Black, don't move, let me carry you! You're so badly injured, you absolutely can't move, let me do it!"
Li Qing knelt down and picked up Da Hei.
Big Black looked into Li Qing's eyes, a tear glistening in them, and let out a whimper.
"I'm sorry, it's all my fault, it's all my fault... Big Black, tell me, who hurt you like this?"
Big Black whimpered again, turned its head to the other side of the tribe, and called out.
Are you calling me over?
Li Qing looked up at the direction Da Hei had just pointed out to him and asked.
The action of running towards Li Qing had exhausted all of Dahei's energy. It leaned against Li Qing's chest and closed its eyes.
Li Qing's mind was filled with an emotion called "grief and indignation," so much so that he couldn't hear what the two soldiers who had chased after him were shouting. He picked up Dahei and ran in the direction Dahei had pointed him to.
