Chapter 125: Ape Tribe's Plea

there were screams from a woman echoing down the hallway. There seemed to be sounds of doors opening, followed by a jumble of footsteps. None of this disturbed Ripples' rest, except that in the later...The monkey was carried back, covered in blood. However, they were all just superficial wounds. Fortunately, there was no internal organ damage and no broken bones. It must have been due to exhaustion from being dragged around while hungry.

Ripples helped MENG wash and clean each other's wounds, applying green hemostatic herbal juice. She had also made a pot of unicorn ox bone soup with mushrooms, letting it simmer until the broth turned milky white before feeding it to MENG.

"Where did you guys find this orc"

Only after finishing her work did Lianyi have the time to ask.

"The messenger, it was Tuanzi who found him first. He was buried in a snowdrift, covering up the blood on his body. I didn't even notice."

He has always been straightforward and honest.

The little dumplings had gathered around Lianyi. They puffed out their chests proudly and then barked a few times, "Awoo awoo," at which point Lianyi understood.

"Tuanzi only discovered him because of his faint breathing. Tuanzi's ears were very sensitive. Otherwise, if it weren't for this, he wouldn't have frozen to death tonight, but would have been frostbitten instead. Although the weather was warming up, the cold was getting heavier."

The Ripple reward patted Tuanzi's head and gave him a dried fish as a reward. Menger twitched the corner of his mouth, he always felt that the deity's attitude towards Tuanzi was not like raising a cub. If he knew there was something called a pet in the future, he would understand Ripple's mentality towards raising a cub.

"With spring approaching, the ice and snow in the forest are beginning to melt, and some wild animals are starting to come out to look for food. Recently, I don't plan to take Tuanzi with me when I go out. I'm going to wake up Dú."

In order to conserve food, after eating and drinking their fill and having everything prepared, they transformed into their original forms in the cave above and entered a state of hibernation.

Even if they can transform into humans, orcs retain some animalistic traits, especially snakes and bears, who need to hibernate. However, in this regard, they have the choice of whether or not to do so.

For example, this time he chose to hibernate, first to save on food, and secondly because Meng's martial arts skills were superior to his, so he felt safe hibernating.

"Okay, then let's take out that smoked ram horn we had stored before and roast it. We should also prepare some other dishes, when Duke wakes up, he deserves a feast."

The ripples are still very generous to this little master of saving food.

Nodding vigorously, he poured a bowl of meat soup into the monkey's mouth, then went to the food storage cave and took out the smoked ram. He cleaned off the coarse salt granules on its surface, skewered it with a stick, and placed it on the grill over the fire, beginning to roast it.

After a moment, the aroma of meat wafted out. The monkey who had drunk a bowl of broth also smelled the delicious food. Its nose twitched involuntarily, its eyelids fluttered a few times, and its eyes suddenly opened wide. This immediately caught the attention of the團子 sitting beside him, who then let out an "Awoo awoo" to alert Lianyi.

Ripples waved to Tuanzi, and the other one wagged its four legs happily and ran to her side, also starting to drool over the roasted mutton.

"Wake up and come over here yourself. Have something to eat, then tell me why you came to the beach. By the way, introduce yourself."

He felt like he'd lived through it all. The feeling of being about to return to the embrace of the beast god was gone, a constant scent of meat filling his nostrils made him feel alive again. He opened his eyes and adjusted for a moment, then heard a pleasant voice. He knew he had been saved.

With difficulty, he pushed himself up and saw the green medicine still covering his body. He looked up to see a male orc, a female orc, and a cub by the bonfire, along with fragrant roasted meat. He swallowed nervously, then closed his eyes and touched his beast mark, transforming himself into a human.

He slowly moved around the bonfire, answering the other person's questions in a hoarse whisper.

“I am Sa, from the monkey tribe. Our tribe’s shaman sent me to find the beast tribe's messenger and rescue our monkey tribe. We are under attack by the Forest King, and our tribe has moved the females and young ones to safety. The shaman has also set up defenses, but we don’t know how long they can hold.”

When it came to this point, Sá's face grew paler and paler. He felt that his injury wasn't serious; he could just eat something and leave here. So, in a low voice, he said:

"Please allow me to eat something, I still need to find the messenger of the beast god. After I rescue my people, I will definitely repay you."

"How long have you been out here How many days did it take you to get here"

I don't know how long I was unconscious, I only know that after leaving my tribe, I have been walking for five days and five nights.

"No wonder you collapsed from exhaustion. When my little Tuanzi found you, you were unconscious in a snowdrift. He dragged you back and treated your wounds, then poured you a bowl of meat soup. You slept for half the day."

Ripple touched Tuanzi's head and said with a smile.

The dumpling also "awooed" a voice, indicating that it was its own credit.

Thank you, I.

"After we eat, we'll leave. You don't need to worry too much."

R ripples directly waved his hand and said.

"Huh"

I was taken aback for a moment, and didn't quite react.

Ripples said directly:

"I am the Beast God's Summoner, Ripple, that you are looking for."

At the sound of it, he immediately got up, knelt on one knee before the ripples, and without saying a word, his eyes were already red.

"Angel, please save our people!"

"I know, so you better fill your belly quickly, and then we'll leave."

"Yes!"

He nodded firmly, and the stone in his heart finally fell. His stomach began to rumble. He realized he was hungry now.

"The meat is cooked, you eat first."

He roared once and then turned to go up to the cave above, to wake Dú.

After half a catty of mutton was eaten, Duo and Meng went to Lian Yi's side together. Duo already knew the reason for waking him up, so he didn't waste any time. He bowed to Lian Yi, teased Tuan Zi again, and then started eating.

After finishing their meal, Meng and Du began packing their things for the trip.

Because they were short on time, they only had a limited amount of time to eat. So, they cooked all the saved meat and also made a lot of meat broth according to Lian Yi's instructions. They then froze it into ice cubes outside the cave and put them in a clean animal skin bag. This greatly reduced the time spent preparing.

Ripple had personally wrapped many crystal meat buns. The filling was mashed potato and meat, as well as seafood and bird egg filling, which was Tuanzi's favorite. After everything was arranged, the sky was already beginning to lighten. At Ripple's command, everyone set off quickly.

This time, Sia led the way at the front, Ripples sat on Meng's back holding onto Tuanzi tightly, steadily. She was responsible for covering their retreat and quickly advanced towards the ape tribe's territory.

Five days later, the group would arrive at the ape tribe's territory. Ripples signaled her impatience by urging them to slow down.

"We can't rush now, we're almost to the gathering place of the Forest Que."

Sà yī tīng immediately slowed down, then gritted his teeth and said:

"This territory belonged to our ape tribe before."

"It seems your people have contracted their defensive perimeter, at least they should be safe for now."

Ripples murmured words of comfort, then the beast mark on her brow shimmered, causing snowflakes that landed on the tree to crystallize into a blooming magnolia flower. It flew toward the center of the ape tribe's village.omewhat shyly:"Sister, hello! I'm Tan Jia Yao who lives in Building B across from you.""Hello, Tan Jiayao, is there anything I can help you with"Ripples crouched down and, maintaining eye contact with...
