Chapter 90: Homecoming
Wen Li pursed her lips tightly, leaned against He Yan, and said nothing.
Soon she knew why He Yan asked her to do this.
There was a sound of heavy footsteps outside.
Wen Li's heart tightened, and she subconsciously looked in the direction of He Yan.
The light was dim and I couldn't see anything clearly.
He Yan kept a vigilant eye on the situation outside.
The things outside were obviously not smart enough and did not notice them. They wandered around for a while and then went back.
An unknown amount of time passed before Wen Li felt her legs were numb from squatting, and then she heard He Yan sighing in relief.
"alright."
Wen Li stood up and tapped his numb legs.
"Wait for me here for a while."
After He Yan finished speaking, he walked towards the entrance of the cave.
After checking, he came back again with a look of obvious relaxation on his face.
"Already gone."
"What is that?"
“I don’t know, but it’s dangerous.”
Wen Li didn't ask any further questions, she believed in He Yan's judgment.
She relit the firewood, and the small cave was lit again.
They took out the cooked dinner from the space and ate it quietly.
After dinner, He Yan fell asleep early.
Wen Li glanced at him and closed her eyes.
In this way, the two stayed in the cave for another whole week.
Time flies.
All in all, Wen Li has been missing for half a month.
Wen Li and He Yan were almost recovered, but because of the lingering blizzard outside, they were unable to return to the tribe.
Finally today, the snow stopped.
Wen Li couldn't wait: "He Yan, let's go back!"
"good."
With the existence of space, Wen Li didn't have to spend much effort to pack up her things. She just raised her hand and waved it, and everything disappeared.
All traces of life that once filled the cave disappeared without a trace.
He Yan has not been doing nothing during this period of time. He has already roughly figured out the direction of the tribe.
"Let's go, this way."
The two were ready to go. He Yan transformed into a beast and ran towards the tribe with Wen Li.
He Yan's true form is a huge black wolf, looking very majestic.
He let Wen Li ride on him and hold him.
Wen Li was familiar with the route and jumped up.
Wen Li had already practiced the process of riding the black wolf with He Yan yesterday and mastered it easily.
"Let's go!" Wen Li gave the order.
As He Yan began to move, the wind like a knife blew on Wen Li's face.
It stings, but it's also stimulating.
He Yan's speed was much faster than she had imagined!
Wen Li didn't care, she was eager to go home.
After disappearing for half a month, she now really wants to see her beastly husbands.
I'm also looking forward to seeing how they react when they see her.
With such expectations, Wen Li rushed to the tribe.
The tribe on the other side.
Wen Li's disappearance did not affect the operation of the tribe.
However, after half a month, a lot of changes have taken place in the tribe.
For example, An Yuan has now become a big celebrity in the tribe.
During the time when Wen Li was around, An Yuan was always overshadowed by her.
Whether in terms of appearance or the use of superpowers, An Yuan is no match for Wen Li.
But since Wen Li disappeared, An Yuan gradually replaced her position.
After all, in the tribe at this time, only An Yuan had the healing ability.
With the help of the system, An Yuan's beauty is gradually improving.
She now runs to the witch doctor whenever she has something to do.
While conquering Arnold, increase your reputation by treating the wounded.
At this time, half a month had passed since the earthquake ended.
There are no longer as many injured people in the tribe as at the beginning.
Coupled with the continuous blizzards, most orcs stayed at home. They didn't have to go out hunting, so they wouldn't get hurt.
The only ones who often come to the witch doctor are Wen Li and her beastly husbands.
Even a blizzard could not stop them from looking for Wen Li. They often went out in the snow and came back with injuries.
Zhu Yan was the first to be hit.
I come to the witch doctor to get medicine every few days, and today is no exception.
"Still haven't found it?"
The witch doctor skillfully gave Zhu Yan medicine and asked a question out of habit.
This was already the opening line between the two.
In fact, judging from Zhu Yan's condition, one could guess the situation, but the witch doctor still asked a question out of habit.
Zhu Yan shook his head, his face pale and gloomy.
Compared to half a month ago, he looked much more haggard and thinner.
It’s not that there is nothing to eat at home. The food Wen Li left for them is enough for them to eat for a long time.
I just have no appetite.
How can I have an appetite when I have lost my wife?
He didn't want to do anything now, he just wanted to find Wen Li as soon as possible.
So I ran out every day and searched almost every corner nearby, but still couldn't find anyone.
Wen Li seemed to have disappeared out of thin air, and there was no trace of her at all.
It was a blizzard with low visibility. Even though Zhu Yan was an orc with S-level talent, he had no way to fight against nature.
In this case, the difficulty of finding Wen Li is doubled.
The only consolation is that they are not dead now, which also means that Wen Li is fine.
At least she was safe.
"Okay." The witch doctor handed him the packaged medicine.
Zhu Yan weighed it in his hand and said, "Take one more. Yan Ci is also injured."
"……good"
The witch doctor sighed.
Without saying anything, he turned around and got the medicine.
All medicinal materials are of the best quality.
Speaking of which, Wen Li’s disappearance was also his fault.
If he hadn't asked Wen Li to pick her up, how could she have disappeared?
It was his negligence.
But he didn't mean to do that. He didn't expect that a stray animal would appear in this situation and kidnap Wen Li.
Because of this relationship, he was too embarrassed to say anything when several people came to the witch doctor to get medicine.
After repacking a new bag of medicine, the witch doctor handed it to Zhu Yan again and reminded him:
"You should rest well during this period. Let someone else do the job of finding someone, otherwise your body won't be able to handle it."
Zhu Yan responded indifferently.
The witch doctor knew that he certainly didn't listen.
Zhu Yan disappeared quickly.
It was not until he left that the witch doctor's heart gradually settled down.
After what happened last time, the witch doctor felt subconsciously frightened when he saw Zhu Yan and the others.
There's no way, it's too scary.
After realizing that Wen Li had disappeared, the witch doctor immediately went to inform Wen Li's several beastly husbands.
When the few people came over, their aggressive appearance was really too scary.
The witch doctor almost thought the other party was going to kill him.
Fortunately, no.
However, because of his involvement in Wen Li's disappearance, several people had been treating him in a bad way recently.
So much so that the witch doctor always felt subconsciously nervous when he saw Zhu Yan and the others.
It's much better now.
The witch doctor walked out of the cave. It was a rare good day today, so he wiped the sweat from his forehead.
As soon as I came out, I saw An Yuan talking to Zhu Yan.
The witch doctor quickly called An Yuan.
"Anyuan, come here."
An Yuan heard the witch doctor's voice, but was reluctant.
"What's the matter?" An Yuan forced a smile.
The witch doctor remained calm and said, "Come and help me sort out the herbs."
"Ah...but..."
As An Yuan spoke, he subconsciously glanced at Zhu Yan's discovery, and found that he had already left, then he nodded reluctantly.
The witch doctor saw all this and frowned slightly.
As for the female An Yuan, the witch doctor couldn't say whether he liked her or hated her.
I just think she is very utilitarian and has a certain purpose in everything she does.
Of course, this is not a bad thing.
But some of her behaviors really made the witch doctor dislike her.
"An Yuan, have you been too close to Wen Li's beastly husband recently?"
The witch doctor rarely asks about other people's private affairs, but today he couldn't help but bring it up.
Not only because of Wen Li, but also because of Arnold.
Arnold is the witch doctor's apprentice, and it is no exaggeration to say that he watched Arnold grow up.
In the witch doctor's heart, Arnold is family.
He knew that Arnold liked An Yuan, and An Yuan was also interested in Arnold.
Although he did not quite agree with the two of them, he did not stop them directly, but just let them develop.
However, so much time has passed, and An Yuan still has no intention of letting Arnold become a beastly husband.
It is not uncommon for a female and a male to become husband and wife the next day after they fall in love with each other.
If it’s slow, it may take ten days or half a month.
The two of them were willing to do it, but so much time has passed and An Yuan has never mentioned letting Arnold be a beastly husband.
That’s fine, but An Yuan has been getting very close to Wen Li’s beastly husbands recently, and he’s seen it all.
He discovered that the reason An Yuan came here every day was to get close to Zhu Yan and the others.
Otherwise, it would be inexplicable why An Yuan would immediately put down what he was doing and go over to Zhu Yan and others as soon as they appeared.
In addition, the witch doctor often heard some females talking about it, saying that An Yuan often went to Wen Li's house.
Although Wen Li was just missing, she was not dead.
What's more, the engagements between those beastly husbands and Wen Li have not been dissolved yet. It's not good for her to target other people's beastly husbands so blatantly.
"It's okay, I just saw it, so I said hello."
An Yuan smiled and explained, "I was just asking him about Wen Li. Wen Li is missing... I feel bad about it too. After all, she is my sister."
"Really?" The witch doctor glanced at her.
If you feel bad, how can you say this with a smile?
The witch doctor did not continue Wen Li's topic, but casually shifted the focus to Arnold.
"An Yuan, when are you going to give Arnold a legitimate status? You two have been together for quite a while, right?"
An Yuan's movements suddenly stopped.
She subconsciously glanced at the witch doctor and found that he was staring at her with sharp eyes.
An Yuan was shrouded in an unprecedented sense of guilt.
She really has no intention of giving Arnold a legitimate status now.
It's simple, because it worked.
An Yuan only used a little trick, and Arnold fell hopelessly in love with her, and his favorability towards her increased wildly.
In this case, there is no need to give a name at all.
Although Arnold's qualifications are not bad, he is not an S-level male after all, so he is still a little lacking.
Rather than letting him take the place of her beastly husband, it is better to maintain the status quo.
After all, the number of places for binding to beast husbands is limited, and An Yuan feels that it is not cost-effective to give it to Arnold.
She will develop more males in the future, and their quality will be higher than Arnold. No matter how she thinks about it, it seems unnecessary.
However, in front of the witch doctor, An Yuan could not directly express his thoughts.
After organizing his words in his head, he evaded the question by saying, "Maybe later."
The witch doctor refused to listen and pressed on, "How long do we have to wait?"
In the eyes of the witch doctor, An Yuan's answer was irresponsible.
An Yuan smiled awkwardly, "Those beastly husbands at home are quite jealous, so... I have to wait for me to convince them."
The witch doctor glanced lightly in the direction of the cave entrance, and a dark shadow flashed by.
The witch doctor nodded, "Yes, okay."
The two of them were busy for a while, and before they knew it, it was already evening.
The weather is very good today. It hasn't snowed and the sun is even out.
Wen Li and He Yan were still rushing on their way.
Only at this time did Wen Li realize how far the stray beast had taken her.
The two of them ran for almost the entire day, and He Yan didn't even take a break.
From morning to night, I finally saw the tribal buildings in the evening.
He Yan's pace gradually slowed down, his physical strength had reached its limit.
Wen Li sensed his physical condition and patted him gently: "That's enough for here, let's go back."
He Yan did not continue to be stubborn and returned to his human form.
The black wolf disappeared and was replaced by a tall and cold man.
Her forehead was covered with sweat, which flowed across her skin and across her clothes, making her look particularly sexy.
He took a deep breath.
Wen Li took out some water from the space and handed it to him, "Drink some."
"Thank you." He Yan took it and took a big gulp.
Wen Li naturally took out her handkerchief and stood on tiptoe to wipe He Yan's sweat.
He Yan just glanced at her and said nothing.
Judging from the way they get along, they are used to it.
In the past half month, the two of them can be said to have depended on each other. They have also experienced several crises, and their relationship has been rapidly getting closer.
But no one revealed that relationship.
"This way." Wen Li pointed in a direction.
I haven't been back for half a month, and the tribe hasn't changed much.
Wen Li walked towards her home, fortunately she still remembered the way.
In winter, it gets dark quickly.
The temperature is also much colder than during the day, and most of the orcs stay at home to keep warm and will not go out unless necessary.
After the two entered the tribe, they didn't meet anyone.
So much so that no one knew Wen Li was back.
She followed her memory and walked towards her new home, getting further and further away.
"Are you sure it's here?" He Yan asked in a low voice.
Wen Li nodded, "Yes, it's here, we're almost there."
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a fire not far away.
Wen Li pointed excitedly, "That's it!"
Her heart was pounding.
He Yan's eyes swept across her surprised face, and his heart ached slightly, but he concealed it calmly.
"Let's go, then," he said.
Wen Li nodded vigorously, but the closer she got, the slower her steps became until she finally stopped completely.
He Yan asked in confusion: "What's wrong?"
Wen Li clasped her hands together, which kept shaking. She breathed a sigh of relief, "...I'm a little nervous."
"It's okay." He Yan patted her back soothingly.
Wen Li was so nervous that her teeth were chattering uncontrollably.
She thought that the temperature must be too low, which caused her to have this reaction.
Wen Li took a deep breath and said, "Let's go."
Continue walking towards home.
Wen Li found that there was no significant change here since she left.
The light was getting closer.
It was just that the silence in the cave was eerie, not even the sound of people talking.
Is there no one at home?
Just when Wen Li was puzzled, he suddenly heard a familiar female voice coming from the cave.
"Then I'll be leaving first. See you tomorrow!"
