Chapter 264: The Unknown Dead

The most intuitive help for the return of Yueying and Angelie is that Io's life has been saved.

In this world with cultivators, as long as they don't die on the spot, they can basically be saved by healing techniques or various medicines, of course, to be completely cured, it depends on the severity of the injury and luck, after all, cultivators are not gods, and they can't do such miracles as resurrection.

But Angelie can come close to coming back from the dead.

Io, who was seriously injured and unconscious, immediately came to his senses after being treated by Angelie, which made Yiyun, a pharmacist, sigh with emotion.

Of course, the price is not without it, during the period of treatment of Io, Angelie completely lost her combat ability, from a level 6 to an ordinary girl - of course, this price is completely acceptable, after all, there is no shortage of combat power now, and this price is only temporary.

The second change is naturally a light rain.

There are no current parents in the team, but thanks to Reori's role as an elder in the orphanage, taking care of the baby is not a difficult task for her.

After the initial enthusiasm for welcoming the baby has passed, everyone begins to worry about the real problems. As we all know, newborn babies are not good looks, and crying at night alone is enough to tear the hearts of adults. However, the performance of Xiaoyu in the next few days impressed everyone.

Eat, sleep, eat, don't cry or make a fuss when you're awake, and hum twice when you have physiological needs, so well-behaved that you don't look like a baby at all.

Originally, everyone had been worried about Xiaoyu's food for a while, but after learning that Yueying had fed Xiaoyu minced meat several times, Reori reprimanded him fiercely. Under normal circumstances, babies whose digestive systems are not fully developed can basically only eat fluid foods such as breast milk, and if they are fed foods beyond their age group, diarrhea is considered mild, and severe cases are likely to lead to death.

However, Xiaoyu didn't show any discomfort at all, and she was very happy when Tsukizakura was indignant and brought minced meat.

Sheila can only explain this by saying that oviparous organisms are better developed than viviparous.

After all, compared to the premature viviparous pups per capita, many oviparous pups have the ability to forage for food on their own after birth, and in this regard, Xiaoyu's well-developed body and not like a newborn appearance are corroborated.

In order to find out the origin of Xiaoyu, Tsukizakura takes Yiyun and Alice back to the dilapidated hut and digs up the buried bones.

Yiyun is a pharmacist and has a certain amount of research on the human body, while Alice is a puppeteer who was forcibly contacted and served as a liaison to follow her.

The dilapidated hut had been completely ruined, and if it weren't for a few broken pieces of wood peeking out of the cracks in the grass, probably no one would have thought that there would be an artificial structure here, and the stone pile next to it where the bones were buried would be more conspicuous.

Because Tsukizakura had just buried the bones shallowly with nearby stones, the three of them didn't have much effort to dig up the bones again and put them in human shape on the grass next to them.

Tsukizakura didn't think she could see anything from the badly damaged skeleton, and in words disrespectful to the dead, the corpses that the beast had eaten were more complete than this skeleton.

Because the time is too long, the white bones have been mutilated, and they have been tossed by the moon cherry, it is actually very difficult to spell out a human figure, many relatively small bones such as phalanges and teeth have been corroded, and Yiyun can only find a little clue from the relatively large bones.

"You don't understand this, you have a specialization in the art industry~" Yiyun gently pulled the skeleton with a small wooden stick, and said proudly.

"When you first set off, you said you weren't good at autopsies. Yueying complained.

Yiyun immediately blushed, "Autopsy or something! I'm a pharmacist, I still know a little bit! It's better than you!"

Then, there were things like "this is related to my self-esteem" and "isn't it just a little more magical" that Tsukizakura didn't understand.

After all, Yueying didn't understand, and Yiyun decided to actually show his hand.

"See this?"

The stick points to the upper right arm of the white bone, which is the most complete part of the bone except for the large pieces of bone such as the skull, sternum, and lower pelvic bone.

"I can't see it. Tsukizakura said very bluntly.

"Although it is not obvious, there are traces of re-healing after breaking in the middle, do you see that the upper arm bone is a little bent? This is because it was not connected properly when the bone was grafted, and it was crooked. Yiyun said eloquently, "Although the treatment technique is easy to use, but improper operation will leave very serious sequelae, I have seen too many people who abuse the treatment technique!

Yueying vaguely sensed that Yiyun meant something, but he couldn't understand what it really meant.

"Plus, it's a woman. ”

"Can you see that?" said Tsukizakura in surprise.

Yiyun enjoyed Yueying's expression very much, she pointed to the pelvic bone of the white bone and said, "The pelvic bone of men and women is different, the pelvic bone of a woman is relatively large, and it is not closed, it is easy to distinguish if you look closely." ”

"Oh...... So why is there such a difference?"

"Because a woman wants to give birth to a child, the pelvic bone is not big enough to give birth. ”

"Really??"

"Really. ”

After that, Yiyun's mouth popped out words such as "survival of the fittest", "biological evolution", "survivor illusion" and so on.

"Do you think she could be Xiaoyu's mother?" Tsukizakura decided to change the subject.

"I don't rule it out. Yiyun shook his head, "If it weren't for the special race, this woman would most likely be an adult, and I can't see anything else, she doesn't have clothes or anything like that?"

"There was at the time, but ......" Tsukizakura scratched the back of her head in embarrassment, "I ...... it"

"Tsk. "Yiyun knows.

After searching, a few items scattered around the hut were also found, but most of them were daily necessities such as cups, and there was nothing that could prove the identity of this white bone.

Just as Tsukizakura was about to bury the bones back and go home, Alice, who had been staying out of the way, leaned down and picked up a small piece of something around where the bones were placed.

"What is this?"

Alice's actions attracted Tsukizakura and Yiyun, and their eyes focused on the small stripβ€”

"Coccyx. Alice said, "She has a tail." ”

Tail?

Tsukizakura looked closely, it was a small bone, very short.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Maybe it's not the same bone?" Tsukizakura was a little confused, "and I can't tell it's a tail." ”

"Together. Alice denied it with certainty.

"Then it's really not a human, at least it's an orc like a big man - but Xiaoyu doesn't have the characteristics of an orc. Yiyun said.

Humanoids with tails, except for orcs, don't think about it, after all, there is an example around him.

Orcs have obvious characteristics, either fangs and tails, or horns or animal ears, and most of them have dense body hair, which distinguishes them from humans at first glance.

This is also the reason why humans and orcs have been fighting to the death, two different races, it is too simple to have a conflict.

As for Xiaoyu, no matter how you look at it, she is a human child, unless she belongs to the type that will show racial characteristics when she grows up, but that will have to wait for many years.

After searching around for a while, and confirming that there was no other useful information, the three of them buried the bones again, this time Tsukizakura brought a shovel to dig a decent pit, and carefully erected a large stone as a tombstone, which was considered respect.

"Although I don't know who Xiaoyu is you, please rest in peace. ”

Tsukizakura folded her hands, bowed, and left with the other two.

In the end, Tsukizakura didn't know the name and identity of the white bone, time washed away too many traces, and death took everything.

Thankfully, Xiaoyu survived.
