Chapter 74 Orc Warrior Red
Chapter 74 Orc Warrior Red
Jiang Luoluo was only allowed to eat one piece.
"There are firecrackers in it, so you can't eat too much." Brown felt a little better after seeing the cub's annoyed expression.
They made the two of them work together secretly, without telling him.
Now, one person can only eat one piece, and the other can only eat one piece as well.
"You too, you've already drunk quite a bit of the water infused with firecracker flowers today, you can't eat any more." He looked at Mao, not to punish the two of them.
However, you really can't eat too much of this stuff, or you'll get a stomachache. Even he himself can only eat a few pieces of meat at most, which is no better than what the two children eat.
Of course, Brown knew that if it didn't set the fire on the flowers, they probably wouldn't taste this good, but it just meant it couldn't be eaten in large quantities.
As for the remaining big pot...
He glanced at the heavy rain outside and said, "I'm going to the top of the mountain."
Let's give it to the witch, so it won't be stolen and eaten by the cubs if we keep it at home.
Brown could trust the cub in everything else, but when it came to the burning flower, Brown dared not give the cub any trust at all.
Watching He leave in the rain, wearing his straw raincoat, Jiang Luoluo and Mao exchanged a glance, and Jiang Luoluo smiled at Mao sheepishly.
As a result, Mao and she were both criticized.
Mao looked at the cub's apologetic smile for a while before speaking, "Luo, it's delicious."
So there's no need to feel sorry; Mao feels good about being able to help the cub do what she wants to do.
Jiang Luoluo was taken aback for a moment upon hearing this, then broke into a big smile, nodded, and pointed to the stone pot, indicating that they should continue cooking.
Mao hesitated for a moment, "This isn't a good idea. He'll be back soon, and if he finds out again..."
Jiang Luolu blinked, her smile freezing for a moment.
They're cooking normally now! The rabbit meat they just had was taken away by He, but they haven't eaten dinner yet!
“…Oh.” Mao retracted his misunderstanding and followed the cub to prepare a normal dinner.
He returned a little late. When he came back, Jiang Luoluo and Mao had already cooked a new pot of soup and grilled some meat, waiting for him to have dinner together.
"What's wrong with you?" Mao asked on behalf of the cub.
Brown, who had just gone out normally, came back covered in mud and water, his straw raincoat was mostly torn, and most importantly, there were two obvious bruises on Brown's face, as if he had been beaten up.
Jiang Luoluo stepped forward in shock and discovered that not only his face, but also his body had many wounds.
"Don't worry, I'm fine, Luo." Brown comforted the anxious and worried cub, took off his tattered grass raincoat, and said apologetically, "I'm sorry for ruining your grass raincoat. I'll make you a new one tomorrow."
Jiang Luoluo shook her head. "What's so important about that? The key question is how you ended up like this."
Brown sighed, a hint of helplessness on his face, and had no choice but to explain.
"I ran into Chi when I reached the top of the mountain."
Chi? Jiang Luoluo recalled that she was one of the tribespeople who helped catch fish when she went to the mountaintop to see the shaman and cooked fish for him. She was the female orc warrior who was left in the tribe by Chief Jing because of her nearsightedness and was not allowed to join the hunting team.
It is said that Chi is quite strong, and with a few more years of growth, she has the potential to become the captain of a hunting team. However, her severe nearsightedness prevents her from joining the hunting team.
But how did things turn out like this when she met Chi… Jiang Luolu tilted her head, staring wide-eyed at He. Could it be what she was thinking?
Brown nodded helplessly, "That's right, Red mistook me for a wild beast that sneaked up the mountain."
Without saying a word, I beat him up.
Jiang Luoluo looked at the heavy rain outside, then at the straw raincoat on He's body, and then at Chi's severe nearsightedness.
Alright, all the necessary elements are there.
Chi, whose vision was already blurry and only had a thin outline, saw a figure dressed in a straw raincoat, resembling a giant mushroom, through the rain curtain of the heavy rain...
No wonder Chief Jing disagreed with Chi joining the hunting team. If Chi were on night watch in the Taz Forest and saw a tribesman returning with prey, he might mistake him for a wild beast and beat him up without saying a word.
"The rabbit meat is fine, I've already given it to the shaman," Brown said, trying to comfort him. If it weren't for protecting the rabbit meat, he wouldn't have been beaten so badly.
After all, he only has one arm.
Jiang Luoluo pursed her lips. What was so important about that thing? She could do as much as she wanted.
Brown was a little helpless. Actually, this injury wasn't serious. Orc warriors usually suffered more serious injuries in their daily battles. It was only because the cub hadn't experienced this before that it reacted so strongly.
Another reason is that he hasn't fought his own people for a long time, so his reactions have slowed down considerably. If he still had his arm...
Jiang Luoluo tugged at her brown clothes, interrupting his reverie, and pointed to the food on the fire.
Let's eat first.
"Okay, let's eat first." He smiled and stopped reminiscing about the past.
Mao helped tidy up the dirty clothes, ate dinner with them, and then braved the rain to return home to rest.
None of us slept well that night.
Jiang Luoluo woke up in the middle of the night clutching her stomach in pain, only to find out that her clansmen's assessment of the fire-roasted chili peppers was not wrong.
Her stomach, which had never eaten anything spicy or irritating, was particularly vulnerable to things like roasted chili peppers. Even the slightest bit of spiciness could wake her up in the middle of the night clutching her stomach in pain.
It wasn't the kind of pain you get from an upset stomach, but rather a sharp, cramping pain in her stomach. Luckily, it was only a little, and Jiang Luoluo endured it for a moment and managed to get through it.
He and Mao were in similar situations, but their pain was much milder than Jiang Luoluo's. At least they weren't woken up by the pain like Jiang Luoluo; they just unconsciously clutched their stomachs in their sleep to relieve the pain.
……
The next morning, Jiang Luoluo saw an unexpected visitor.
The culprit, Chi, who had given Brown a sound beating yesterday, was standing casually at the cave entrance, carrying two rabbits in his hand.
"Why did you come here?" Brown asked, puzzled.
She didn't seem to have any negative feelings towards Chi because of last night's blunder, but the cub beside her was clearly unhappy and holding a grudge.
“I’ve come to apologize to you.” Chi held up two rabbits in his hands. “This is an apology.”
As Red struggled, Brown and Jiang Luoluo realized that these were actually two live rabbits.
"You just went to catch it?" Brown's lips twitched as he looked at the sky, which had just stopped raining. He must have left at the crack of dawn.
This alone shows how powerful Akane is. He was able to find the earth rabbit's burrow in the heavy rain and catch two of them. It's just a pity that his eyesight is poor.
"Hmm, fresh." Chi replied lazily, not thinking there was anything special about his move. Instead, he looked at the small figure next to Hei, couldn't help but lick his lips, and smiled.
"Luo, the rabbit meat you made last night was delicious. You can call me next time you make it, and I'll trade you some game. I'll hunt whatever you want to eat."
Jiang Luoluo looked at He in confusion. Wasn't the meat given to the witch?
Brown shrugged helplessly. Last night, Red realized he had punched the wrong person. The shaman had tasted a piece of rabbit meat with him and, after confirming there was nothing wrong with it, handed the meat to Red—Red was the kind of orc warrior who would eat firecrackers as a snack.
