Hu Jiaojiao was startled.
She realized that it was not a thick fog, but the smoke from the burning fires.
But she didn't feel stinging at all.
She walked over in a panic, and a series of tragic and bloody faces passed by her eyes, as if she was just passing by.
"Long Mo! Ling'er, Yu'er..."
"Where are you?"
Hu Jiaojiao walked faster and faster, running forward anxiously. She didn't dare to look at the corpses on the roadside. She just felt a great fear in her heart.
Suddenly, she tripped over something, lost her balance, and fell to the ground.
A lifeless, pale face appeared in front of Hu Jiaojiao, with bulging eyes full of bloodshot, mouth wide open, and two hands tightly pinching her neck, as if she was being tortured extremely severely.
Hu Jiaojiao's heartbeat suddenly stopped, and she screamed uncontrollably:
"Ling'er!"
"Jiaojiao, what's wrong with you?"
Hu Jiaojiao opened her eyes, and it was dark. Long Mo's familiar voice came to her ears, deep and full of worry.
Then, she fell into a warm embrace.
Hu Jiaojiao realized that she was soaked in sweat, and her hands and feet were cold in the summer night, as if she had fallen into an ice cellar.
When her pupils focused, she saw Long Mo's deep and worried eyes.
"Long Mo..." Seeing Long Mo, Hu Jiaojiao's consciousness returned. Thinking of the scene just now, she let out a long breath.
"What did you dream about? I couldn't wake you up just now." Long Mo's eyebrows were wrinkled, and his voice was full of worry.
As he spoke, he gently wiped the sweat off Hu Jiaojiao's face.
Hu Jiaojiao shook her head, paused for a while, and then said in a hoarse voice:
"I just dreamed that something happened in Yuehu Tribe, and Ling'er also..."
Her voice paused, and then she told Long Mo everything she saw in her dream without hiding anything.
Those pictures seemed to still echo in her mind, like an invisible giant hand, strangling her neck, making her a little breathless.
Long Mo also noticed that Hu Jiaojiao was not right, and hugged her in his arms to comfort her:
"It's okay, I will protect you, you and Ling'er, and the other cubs will be fine."
The low and firm voice brought Hu Jiaojiao a sense of security.
She took a deep breath and then exhaled heavily.
Only then did she realize that the scene in the dream was not haunting her all the time.
"Jiaojiao, your clothes are all wet, change them first." Seeing that Hu Jiaojiao's face was pale and her body was soaked, Long Mo reminded her.
Hu Jiaojiao didn't say anything, but just nodded. Her
body was wet, which was not only uncomfortable, but also reminded her of the corpses and blood all over the ground in her dream.
Hu Jiaojiao couldn't tell whether this was a nightmare caused by seeing corpses in the forest during the day, or a warning to her.
Could it be another prophetic dream?
The way the beastmen and Ling'er died in the dream was obviously due to serious illness and death, and the death was very horrible.
It was as if she had suffered great pain and torture before she died.
Just as she was thinking about it, Long Mo had already brought clean clothes over. He
also filled a basin with clean water.
Hu Jiaojiao simply wiped herself and changed into clean and refreshing clothes, then she felt much more comfortable.
But the fear in her heart still did not diminish.
So she told Long Mo her previous guess again.
She was worried that an epidemic had broken out in the tribe.
When she thought of Ling'er in her dream, she felt a palpitation.
"Don't worry, since the dream has given us a hint, I will go to discuss with Chief Hu Lin early tomorrow morning to strengthen protection in the tribe."
Long Mo's stern face was somewhat solemn. Seeing that Hu Jiaojiao was uneasy, he comforted her in a deep voice.
"Okay, let's go early tomorrow morning." Hu Jiaojiao nodded. It was the only way.
It was still late at night.
But Hu Jiaojiao was not sleepy at all and stayed up all night. Long Mo stayed with Hu Jiaojiao all night and stayed awake.
At dawn the next day, he got up and went out with Hu Jiaojiao.
The two found Hu Lin and told him about it.
However, Hu Jiaojiao did not tell Hu Lin directly about the predictive dream. It was not that she did not believe Hu Lin, but she did not want to cause unnecessary panic.
After all, people live on hope most of the time.
If everyone knew that the final outcome of the tribe was that everyone died, who would still work hard to survive? The inner wall would have collapsed long ago.
That is something more terrible than death.
After Hu Jiaojiao and Long Mo discussed it, they decided to use the reason that the beast god came to her in a dream, saying that the beast god reminded her that there would be a disaster in the Yuehu tribe and asked them to be careful.
Hu Lin naturally had no doubts, and after hearing it, he immediately took it seriously.
"Jiaojiao, since the tribe has an epidemic, what should we do now? Otherwise, we should not let the beastmen who come later in!" Hu Lin didn't want anything to happen to the Yuehu tribe more than anyone else. After all, this was the tribe he built with his own hands.
This was also the new home he built for Minmin, and the beginning of their reunion.
Hu Jiaojiao shook her head, "No, the disease may not be brought in by the beastmen. We still have to let them in, otherwise there will be more and more beastmen outside, blocking the entrance of the tribe, causing panic and the tribe will be in danger."
Then the beastmen in the tribe will not be able to go out and hunt, which is not a long-term solution.
Moreover, if they all crowd at the entrance of the tribe, it will be more likely for the disease to break out.
For now, we can only take protective measures and take it one step at a time.
Hu Jiaojiao told Hu Lin some epidemic prevention techniques, and added a lot of details on the previous basis, and asked Hu Lin to send people to popularize this knowledge to the beastmen in the tribe and formulate the rules of the tribe.
The beastmen were very grateful to the tribe for being taken in, and they just tried their best to complete the rules set by the tribe.
After leaving Hu Lin, Hu Jiaojiao took advantage of Long Mo going out hunting and went into the space alone to the medical and pharmaceutical area.
After reading relevant books, she found a bunch of antibiotics and medicines that can treat various diseases.
Although they may not be effective, it is better to be prepared in advance than to do nothing.
There are also some medicines and health products to enhance the body's resistance. Hu Jiaojiao also took out a lot of them. On the premise of ensuring safety, she tried to give them to the cubs, Hu Min, Hu Qiang, and Hu Lin.
If something really happens, the cubs and older beastmen will be the weakest and most susceptible to disease.
After doing all this, Hu Jiaojiao's anxious heart was finally able to relax a little.
A few days passed in a flash.
Everything in the tribe was normal, as if Hu Jiaojiao's dream was just an ordinary nightmare. However ,
Hu Jiaojiao did not dare to relax her vigilance, and sent a message to Fengshou Tribe, asking the tribe leader to be equally careful.
At the same time,
Yin Sang finally caught a prey that met the standards and sent it to Yin Xue.
