Chapter 39: Toad Orc

Back at Tsuchiya, it was already noon.

Yan Xun didn't sleep all night, and after a busy morning, he fell asleep on the haystack.

Ye Hibiscus pinned the stone knife to her skirt and went out under the scorching sun.

The whole tribe was filled with a tense atmosphere, patrols everywhere, and the outer perimeter of the tribe was completely sealed, unless the invaders had wings, it was really impossible to leave silently.

Ye Hibiscus walked to the low-lying ground and came to the edge of the lotus pond.

The place had apparently been searched as well, and all the lotus leaves had been knocked down, and a pool of muddy water was exposed to the sun, making it impossible to hide people.

Ye Jin looked at the dead pool and said confidently: "I know you are here." ”

Quiet, deathly still.

There was not a trace of wind in the air, the leaves were still, the insects could not be heard, the fluctuations of the pool water could not be seen, and the muddy water was like a black hole, faintly trying to suck people in.

Even the scorching sun could not dispel the terrifying atmosphere.

Suddenly, the pool moved, and something under the water rushed in the direction of the hibiscus.

Ye Hibiscus subconsciously took two steps back.

Wow!

A black shadow leaped out of the water and swooped down on the hibiscus.

Ye Hibiscus was thrown to the ground heavily, his mouth and nose were completely sealed by a big cold hand, and he could no longer make a single superfluous sound except for the sound of his flesh hitting the ground.

Her eyes widened in horror, and when she steadied her gaze, she saw a face that was as white as a dead corpse.

The whiteness of this face is different from the whiteness of Yanxun. Yan Xun is naturally fair-skinned similar to a Caucasians, and he is more like a dead corpse that has been soaked in water for a long time, not only is it so white that it seeps into people, but his body temperature is also cold and not like a living person.

Only the shining tea-red eyes could prove that he was a living creature.

He was dressed in a wide animal skin, and muddy water trickled from his body and fell on Ye Hibiscus's face.

At noon, Ye Hibiscus actually felt cold.

"I'll let you go, if you make a noise, I'll kill you immediately!" The man looked around and saw that there was no danger, and said in a low voice.

Ye Jin nodded hurriedly and blinked.

The man let go of the hand covering her mouth and nose.

Ye Hibiscus suddenly gasped for breath.

"How did you know I was here? Why come alone? What is your purpose? The man asked three questions in a row.

Ye Hibiscus took a deep breath and calmed the spirit, and replied, "First, the injured person is suspected of being poisoned by a toad, and I suspect that you are a toad orc, so come here to take a look." ”

The man was stunned, is it common for orcs like him to be common? Or did the girl happen to have seen the toad beast?

Before he could figure out why, Ye Jin's words interrupted his thoughts.

"Second, I'm not from this tribe, I'm their captive, so why should I help them capture you?" Ye Hibiscus turned her head playfully and smiled at the man.

Hearing this, the man was much less vigilant, let go of Ye Hibiscus and stood up.

Ye Hibiscus also stood up, her body and clothes were covered with mud, and she cleaned it up a few times.

"This is not the place to talk, let's go over there and talk slowly." Ye Hibiscus said, taking the lead towards a few shrubs.

The man hesitated for a few seconds, then stepped along.

Ye Hibiscus arrived at the destination first, and the waiting time saw that the man had a leg injury and walked with a severe lameness.

"You're hurt?" Ye Hibiscus asked with concern.

The man sat on the ground, revealing his festering and rotten thighs, "I came to the tribe to steal grass and wood ashes, and I used to see witch doctors treat grass and wood ashes, so I wanted to try my luck." ”

Ye Hibiscus frowned when he saw the vague injury, this injury was serious enough, it had completely deteriorated, and there was a risk of amputation in modern times.
