“We have nothing,” the female said as she looked around. Her child’s hands were frostbitten, and it wasn’t just her child; many females were in the same situation.
“Since you’ve come here to rely on us, of course we’ll take care of you properly, right… Boss…” Haitang said to Huoqiu, who didn’t react for a moment.
"Of course, Haitang is the best doctor in our tribe. She gives your children a much greater chance of survival." The orcs of the sheep tribe breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this.
Haitang began to bandage the wound. Now that Huoqiu had brought back her people, she couldn't just leave them to fend for themselves; she had to take care of them.
The frostbite medicine was applied, and other medicines were also prepared. Huo Qiu had originally planned to go find Hai Tang, but didn't because of the snow. Now that Hai Tang had come, he certainly wouldn't let her go.
They started by gathering herbs and also brought their own hair fruits. The sheep tribe members don't react strongly when females approach, but if it's an orc, they'll be terrified and practically bristle.
After treating the wound, Haitang and Guo'er left some ointment behind, "to change the dressing." As Haitang spoke, she gave instructions on what to pay attention to, as the child's frostbite was severe and they needed to be extra careful.
The females all nodded. Haitang and Dongfanglong put down their things, picked up their boxes, and left. Haitang actually wanted to know what Huoqiu's purpose was in keeping the people around.
Huo Qiu didn't tell anyone in the tribe, but whatever the purpose, people stayed, so they stayed. When Haitang returned, she went straight to take a bath.
Xiao Xiang had already taken Xiao Ping'an to sleep, and after Haitang and the others took a bath, they also went to sleep. It was too cold, and Haitang didn't want to move. When Dongfang Long approached her, she would hug him, and if he made a move, she would slap him.
The snow this year is very heavy, and now everything is covered in white snowflakes. Huoqiu has found the medicinal herbs, and Haitang will show them to the sheep beastman after she has seen them.
Finally, they decided to prepare the medicine for the other party to take. The sheep-beastman hesitated and ate it. The smell on his body also disappeared. Under these circumstances, the tiger-beastman stopped looking at them with the same gaze he had shown to meat.
One pill can last for several months. Haitang told them to manage it themselves and keep good records. Yangming immediately nodded, relieved to have the medicine.
There was no need to be trembling with fear when facing the orcs of the Tiger Clan, and Yang Ming also knew that the tribe had no shortage of food at these times.
At least they've been here for so long, and not many people have been dragged out and eaten. Under these circumstances, Yang Ming gradually breathed a sigh of relief, but he remained vigilant.
The females were bleeding. When she was fourteen or fifteen, Yang Ming pulled her up. The girl's face was a little pale. "I'll send you to the tribe leader tomorrow. After you get there, you'll be assigned to the tiger beastmen."
"No," the girl shook her head and said, "I've already agreed to marry Brother Yanglu." Not far away, an orc lay unconscious, having been injured while providing cover.
The girl shook her head frantically and ran to the orc not far away, "Brother Yangming, please don't make me go, I don't want to... I have someone I like."
"You have someone you like? So what?" Yang Ming said. "Now do you know why we're here? Because you and we are useful. Do you think others will keep someone who doesn't obey?"
He had already decided in his mind that the child and the female would stay together, and the child would remain human unless it turned into a beast, and would not be eaten without the lure of a certain scent.
Of course, difficulties are possible, but he still decided to take the plunge. Now that he understands that those people don't even eat their own orcs, he should do something to show his support.
The female was to be given away, no matter how reluctant she was. Upon hearing this, the female's eyes turned red, and she threw herself onto the sheep-beastman not far away, crying loudly.
When Yang Lu woke up, she heard her elder brother say, "Brother... you can't send Hua Yue out." Yang Lu said, but Yang Ming just looked at Yang Lu.
“Yes, now I’ve become the bad guy,” Yang Ming said. “Now I’ve become the bad guy who forces people.” Yang Ming’s voice was tinged with sadness.
The people around fell silent upon hearing this. Yang Lu and the others lowered their heads. Hua Yue bit her lip and said, "I understand."
Under these circumstances, resistance is useless; she will still be sent away eventually. Huayue nodded, biting her lip.
Huo Qiu heard that the sheep tribe had adult females, but when he went to see them, he found that their eyes were red and their eyes were always looking at the sheep and deer not far away. He couldn't help but frown.
Knowing in her heart that the other person already had someone they loved, she said, "I'll just ask you one question: do you really want to marry the tiger beastman, or follow your sheep beastman? Once you've made a choice, you can't go back on your word."
Upon hearing this, Huayue glanced at the sheep and deer not far away. "Forget it, you don't seem willing either." The tribe isn't so poor that it doesn't have wives. Since these people weren't stolen, but taken in because they have a use.
Forcibly taking another female away would only breed resentment. "Next time, if you have someone you love, don't take her. Our tribe isn't so poor that we don't have wives." With that, she left.
The tiger-beastmen also felt unhappy. If they wanted a wife, they could just beat her up if they snatched her. But the sheep-tribe beastmen, in Huo Qiu's words, were of great use.
That means he can't fight. In that case, he should just forget about it and go find someone else. Besides... those crying females aren't pretty either. He wants to find a caring female.
Under such circumstances, it can be said that Huayue was not taken away. Huayue felt somewhat guilty and dared not speak. When the females around her looked at her, they couldn't help but frown.
