They thought they held a high place in their partner's heart, and that's why they wouldn't dare to do it, but they'd already gone out and splurged.
Even though they were poisoned, they were quite clever. Seeing that it was getting late, and afraid I wouldn't be able to find them if I woke up, they obediently knelt back down. I really don't know whether to praise them for being clever or scold them for being cunning.
Guo Xiaoxiao, hands on her hips, howled at the two of them like a shrew.
"You two, come here!" Randy and Arthur exchanged a glance, then slowly shuffled toward Guo Xiaoxiao.
"What's the matter"
"???"
Randy and Arthur feigned concern, but their eyes darted away guiltily, avoiding eye contact with Guo Xiaoxiao.
"What's wrong? You two have the nerve to ask me what's wrong? I told you not to go out, but you insisted on going out and wouldn't listen to me at all. You sneaked off to play while I was asleep."
"No, that's not playing around at all, it's going to cause trouble for other people. What grudge do you two have against them? Just do your own thing, why do you have to go looking for others?"
"What? Do you think I'm stupid? Let me tell you, don't think that just because you have a Five-Star Ring and a Reverse-Star Ring, I won't dare to beat you up."
Guo Xiaoxiao pretended to look around the room for a weapon she could grab, which startled Landiather, who quickly dodged away.
Randy felt a fire rising in his chest, but it subsided as soon as he saw Guo Xiaoxiao. He didn't dare to go forward or speak.
Arthur, clutching his chest, ducked towards the edge of the bed.
The two orcs hunched their shoulders, looking weak, helpless, and pitiful.
Guo Xiaoxiao stomped her feet in exasperation at their cowardly behavior.
"Honestly, what am I supposed to do? Are you planning to turn the tribe upside down before you're satisfied?"
The two looked at each other, heads bowed, faces full of grievance. They didn't think they had done anything wrong. All they did was ask the female to find some flowers, and steal someone else's food. It was their own fault for being no match for him.
It wasn't just his personality that changed; after eating the drugged meat that Irina gave him, his primal animalistic instincts were unleashed.
"I'll beat you to a pulp!"
Guo Xiaoxiao grabbed a thick wooden stick from the puddle and threatened to hit Randy, which startled him.
"No...no, it wasn't my idea, it was...it was his idea."
Randy pointed at Arthur
"I don't…"
Arthur retorted
Guo Xiaoxiao: "I don't care whose idea it was, the mistake has been made, and you all have to apologize to me."
Guo Xiaoxiao raised the wooden stick in the air as if to strike, and the two of them covered their heads, closed their eyes, and prepared to receive the blow. Guo Xiaoxiao tried several times to make them look like that, but she just couldn't bring herself to hit them.
He sighed and said, "Forget it, I'm not fighting anymore."
He threw the wooden stick back into the puddle: "You all better stay put, or I'll beat you to death!"
then
"Listen to me, both of you. This is your last chance. Otherwise, you're not allowed to mate for a year, and forget about having children."
Guo Xiaoxiao gave them a stern warning, and the two dared not misbehave again. Randy and Arthur nodded, indicating that they understood.
Let them run out and apologize while they're still in a daze. What if they get surrounded and start fighting when the orcs confront them? Guo Xiaoxiao won't be able to stop them. It's better to wait until they're sober before they apologize to each of them individually.
The people outside were still waiting for her to come out and give an explanation, so Guo Xiaoxiao went out again, smiling ingratiatingly saying...
"Anyone who is injured, please go to Alo's room to get a bottle of healing water. I'll go and say hello to Alo. There's no limit to the amount of water today; anyone who was hurt by Randy or Arthur can get a bottle."
Lin Feng secretly came to the cave and stole it last time, so they don't usually give them to the orcs anymore, only giving one bottle each during major battles.
For minor wounds, you shouldn't use healing water; let them heal on their own or take some other herbal remedies.
Even with such a miraculous potion, it should be used sparingly; this is why Wen Yi didn't drink the healing potion in the first place.
He set this precedent, and others definitely won't be happy about it. "You can drink, but I can't? There can't be special treatment, no matter how high your status is as a veterinarian."
Wen Yi didn't take advantage of his age or use his status as a veterinarian to suppress others. He was already old, so he shouldn't leave any leverage for his later years.
"Really? Unlimited? Can I take a few more bottles? Give me three, one isn't enough. You sometimes bump into things while hunting, so healing potions are more convenient."
"Let's go with you. You can say hello to Alo in person while we wait in line to get ours. What if you say hello and Alo doesn't acknowledge it?"
"Just one bottle will do, but that gourd is too small, and it's troublesome to repackage it. Let's just go into the forest and find some larger gourds, and have the high shaman give us a big bottle to keep indoors and drink slowly."
This is outrageous! They're so greedy! Those orcs may look handsome and honest, but they're full of wicked schemes.
Do they drink water like it's free? Are they afraid they won't get any? In which war didn't water get distributed?
"If you come with me, we can ask Alo for the healing water. It would be so much easier to just drink it there. But bringing a big gourd to hold it won't work. Someone might steal a whole bottle, enough to last a long time."
Some orcs even joined in the defense.
"The Forgotten Continent is home to the strongest beings. Who would dare to steal from it? Ling Feng, the King of the Wandering Beasts, had his leg broken by Arthur. If anyone dares to come, I'll kill them all; if two dare to come, I'll kill them both."
"Exactly, let's get a big bottle. They won't come to the vet when they're injured anymore. Let them rest more; they're too old."
Everyone else is getting back together with their exes, all for their own benefit; I can understand that, right?
It just seems a tiny bit too greedy. Guo Xiaoxiao won't agree to that. What if they lose the inheritance of medical skills? What will happen after Guo Xiaoxiao dies? What will they do without a veterinarian? If they get injured, they'll just have to wait to die.
"One big bottle isn't practical. How about this: everyone takes two bottles home—one to drink and one to keep as a backup. That should work, right?"
"No, that's too little! Great Shaman, please have mercy! I don't even have a single star ring; I could die easily. If I don't bring some water for protection, I'll be dead!"
Guo Xiaoxiao understood the hardships of ordinary orcs, but certain principles had to be upheld. Why was this person taking advantage of her kindness? They treated her like a good-natured person and then brushed her off.
"I haven't concocted any healing potions, so you'll still have to rely on them. Becoming stronger is the only way to go. You're thinking of drinking healing potions every time you get a minor injury? You need to understand the principles of medicine, otherwise, when the potions run out, are you all just going to sit here and wait to die?"
"I understand your feelings. In terms of survival and defense, males bear more responsibility than females. As for giving you water, it's perfectly reasonable."
Guo Xiaoxiao paused here, and then the story took a turn.
"If you think I'm just being lazy and unambitious, you need to reflect on yourself. Otherwise, how will you improve your Star Ring? We're all orcs living together, so we should face problems together. If you insist on surrounding and pressuring me, then all the enhancement and healing potions will be gone. You'd better figure it out yourself."
