Chapter 280: The Bloody Case Caused by the Bear Child
"Ahh
"Go away, what are you going to do?" Catherine struggled to resist the little crocodile who pounced on her with her hand, and was unexpectedly bitten by his wrist, and his sharp teeth suddenly pierced the delicate skin, and for a while blood flowed, and the bitter pain entered Catherine's heart.
"He's biting me, help me!" Catherine screamed in pain, slamming the little crocodile on the head with her other hand, Lisa on the side turned around and grabbed the javelin leaning against the wall, and was about to stab the little crocodile that bit Catherine's wrist to death, when suddenly a burst of pollen aroma wafted, and the little crocodile suddenly quieted down and released its mouth.
Catherine took the opportunity to kick him in the head, the little crocodile rolled a few times and rolled off the bed, he staggered up from the ground, shook his head and looked at the two menacingly, Monica floated forward and waved his hand, summoning a strong wind to blow him out of the mud hut.
"Are you alright, Catherine?" Lisa hurriedly dropped her javelin and came to Catherine, where she saw that her right wrist was dripping with blood, her left hand and forearm were covered with scratches, and her white clothes were stained with blood.
"Bear with me, I'll help you deal with it right away!" Little Flower Spirit fell from the sky, first tore off a willow leaf wing and stuck it on Catherine's severely bitten right wrist, and after the injury was quickly controlled, she helped Catherine treat the scratches on both arms one by one.
"What the hell is going on? Where did this come from, it looks like it was a child from some crocodile family. Lisa angrily put her arms around Catherine's shoulders and said distressedly as she wiped the cold sweat from her forehead.
"I hate this place," said Catherine, with a sigh of apprehension, "I wish Mr. Rogge had brought the Artifact back sooner, and we would get out of here quickly." ”
Lisa nodded silently, looking down at the wound on Catherine's hand, the wound had gradually healed under Monica's treatment, and she was about to get up and arrange for Catherine to lie down and rest for a while, when the animal skin curtain at the door was suddenly opened, and Murphy's figure hurriedly walked in.
"What's going on? I just heard you shouting here, what's wrong?" asked Murphy, looking at them with concern.
Lisa told him what had happened, and Murphy came to the bedside to look at Catherine's arm, and although he could no longer see the wound before, the blood stains left on Catherine's white pants were enough for him to imagine what kind of injury it was.
"You take a rest first, I'll go to Gustav, I can't allow this to happen again!" Murphy helped Catherine to lie down, asked Lisa and Monica to take care of her, and turned around and hurried out of the mud hut.
Exhausted by exhaustion and fright, Catherine fell asleep in the company of Lisa and Monica, and when she woke up from her sleep, it was already dusk, Monica was still at the head of her bed, and Lisa was sitting on the opposite bed with her back against the wall dozing, still holding the javelin in her hand.
"Thank you for your hard work. Catherine said to Monica gratefully, Little Flower Spirit shook her head slightly, and asked her if her arm still hurt, Catherine could not answer, a slender paw suddenly opened the door curtain, and Nala, the wife of the Great Patriarch, walked in from outside the door.
"I'm sorry, Miss Catherine," said Nala softly to the bedside and said apologetically to Catherine, "I heard about what happened in the morning, and I'm sorry, I don't know how your injuries are?"
"It's okay already, thank you. Catherine glanced at Nala with trepidation, and then Lisa, who was sitting on the opposite bed, was awakened by the sound of the two talking, she stood up with her javelin, recognized it as Nala, and walked up to her and asked, "Who was the one who bit Catherine?"
"Truth be told, it's the child of the Great Patriarch. Nala sighed and said, "His own mother is dead, and he is the youngest of the children left, and the rest of his brothers have died in the war against the lizardmen. ”
Seeing a hint of pity in Catherine and Lisa's eyes, Nala sighed lightly and continued: "This child is the heart of the great patriarch, and he has a big temper, and usually none of us can control him. ”
"It's really the wicked who sue first!" said Lisa, bluntly.
Seeing this, Catherine gently touched Lisa with her hand, looked up and said to Nala, "Looks like he just took me as a prey, right?
"No, Miss Catherine, don't be afraid, we don't usually do that, only some of the people who live in the backcountry will catch some travelers who go deep into the swamp to satisfy their hunger, but you are a friend of Mr. Murphy, that is our friend of the crocodile clan, how could we hurt you?" Nala shook her head repeatedly.
"Anyway, I hope it doesn't happen in the future, look at Catherine's clothes, there is so much blood on her clothes, if it weren't for Monica's medical skills, I'm afraid my hands would be disabled!" Lisa said unceremoniously to Nala.
"I'm sorry, I apologize to you on behalf of the Great Patriarch, I promise it won't happen again!" Nala said apologetically.
Seeing that Nora's attitude was so sincere, Catherine did not pursue it further, and Nala took the opportunity to invite them to the scene of the bonfire, saying that Murphy was already waiting for them there.
Catherine, Lisa, and Monica followed Nala to the residence of Gustav, the patriarch of the crocodile clan, and saw that a large pile of firewood had been piled up in the open space in front of the house, and the ground around it was surrounded by animal skins in a large circle, and each animal skin blanket was filled with food and wine.
At this time, it was already dark, the firewood pile had been lit with a roaring flame, the great patriarch sat on the main seat in the center, Murphy and Nala each sat on his side, Catherine and the others sat down next to Murphy in turn, and saw many crocodile wizards gathered around the campfire, shouting and dancing weird dances.
The Great Patriarch greeted Catherine first and expressed his apologies to her, Catherine saw that the Great Patriarch was sincere and expressed her understanding, and everyone raised their glasses together to taste the unique wine brewed by the Crocodile Clan, and celebrated the reunion of the Great Patriarch Gustav and Murphy.
During the banquet, Gustav, the patriarch of the crocodile clan, told the generals present about his acquaintance with Murphy and the battle between the two.
Gustav's eyebrows fluttered as the crocodile generals present listened and looked at Murphy sitting beside him, feeling incredulous that this extremely thin human could defeat the Great Patriarch.
Just as Gustav was talking with great interest, Sarrif, the commander of the Thousand Commanders sitting next to Nala, stood up and said loudly: "Great Patriarch, you are talking so lively, and we juniors have not had a chance to see it, since Scorpio is here today, why don't you let us see it?"
"You're messing around again," Nala frowned at her brother and said, "Today is a festive day, how can you let the great patriarch and guests do it?"
"Of course, the Great Patriarch can't do it casually, but you can choose someone else to fight with the Scorpion!" Sarif strode over the fur cushion to the roaring bonfire, looked around the crowd and exclaimed, "Even if it's for the bonfire!"
The crocodile generals present look at me, I look at you, and they are silent, Gustav pondered for a moment, and turned his gaze to Murphy's face.
Murphy calmly stared at Sharif staring at him by the campfire not far away, smiled slightly and said, "No problem, since Commander Sharif and everyone here want to see it, then I will come to cheer everyone up!"
He drank the wine from the iron bowl, got up and strode to the campfire, by this time the crocodile wizards had already left the venue, only he and Sarif stood face to face, Murphy looked at Sarif with a smile, and heard him ask, "Your Excellency Scorpio, what weapons are you going to fight?"
"I don't need a weapon, it won't hurt anyone. Murphy smiled and shook his wrist and smiled, "How about wrestling?"
"Than wrestling?" Sarif laughed when he heard this, and turned back to the crowd and said, "In that case, then you're welcome!"
Murphy took off his white cloak, Sarif threw away his bulky armor, and the two of them pulled open to prepare in the open space in front of the campfire, Murphy beckoned to Sarif, who glanced contemptuously at Murphy, who was less than his shoulder, and rushed up with a loud shout.
Murphy stood quietly in place, clenching his hands, only to see Sarif rush to the front and stretch out two paws to grab his shoulders and push him to the ground, but unexpectedly Murphy stood firmly in place, his whole person as steady as a rock.
"Huh?" Sarif looked at him in surprise, and reached out to hook his arm with his claws and threw him back, but Murphy's feet were stuck to the ground, unable to move at all.
"How is that possible?" Sarif looked back at Murphy in surprise, and the adventurer shrugged at him, suddenly grabbed the arm he had hooked on, and threw Sarif to the ground with an over-the-shoulder throw.
The crocodile generals present were shocked, and stood up from their seats, only to see Sarif roll on the ground and roll over, look at Murphy angrily, and rush over with all his strength with a loud shout, only to hear a "bang", and Sarrif's head hit Murphy's chest.
"Ouch!" Suliff, dizzy from the impact, fell to his back as if he had hit a hard stone, while Murphy, who had been hit hard in the chest, stood calmly in place.
"Hahaha, worthy of being a 'Scorpion'!" Gustav stood up laughing when he saw this, and applauded again and again: "It seems that in the past few years of separation, you have become stronger than before, you defeated me with your agile skills back then, and now you can fight hard without dodging or dodging!"
"The Great Patriarch has won the prize!" Murphy reached out and pulled up Sarif who had fallen to the ground, and said with a smile, "I have indeed gained a lot in the years of being separated from you. As he spoke, his gaze fell on Catherine's face, and the girl smiled and nodded appreciatively.
Suddenly, a paw came out from behind Catherine and grabbed Monica, who was sitting on Catherine's shoulder, from behind, and the little flower spirit screamed in surprise, and looked back to see a bloody jaw biting down on her.
