There was no special night. As the night fell, the night dew gradually soaked into the skin, bringing the coolness of the season change. After putting Norman to sleep, Cole felt a little melancholy when he thought of Sarah's farewell, so he squatted at the door of his house Under the tree not far away, I want to get some air.

Everyone else has fallen asleep, and the surroundings are dark and silent, only Cole is still awake.

There is no moon tonight, and there are only twinkling stars in the sky. Cole stares blankly at the sky. After a long time without realizing it, when he regains his senses, he suddenly finds that there is a dark night moving slowly here. Er quickly became alert, stood up straight and was about to turn around and enter the room, but the black shadow suddenly stepped forward and grabbed his arm.

"Ah──!" Cole yelled reflexively in fright.

The other party covered Cole's mouth, then knelt down straight on the ground, as if enduring great pain, and said intermittently: "Don't shout...take me...back."

Is it Tyson? !

Cole was shocked, it was only when he realized that the hand holding him was wet, and then a thick smell of blood came into his nose.

"Tyson? What's wrong with you?" Because it was too dark, Cole couldn't see what happened, so he quickly helped Tyson, who was dying, to go home.

Once inside, Tyson lost consciousness and fell down.

"Uncle Eli, Uncle Yitzhak, Tyson seems to be injured!" Cole yelled loudly, and then lit the lamp, and when he saw Tyson's appearance in the light of the fire, he was shocked.

The comatose Tyson's whole body was covered with wounds torn open by tiny teeth, and his pale, bloodless cheeks were covered with traces of blood. When he looked up, in the left eye socket that was bleeding continuously, the eyeball... was gone. .

Seeing this scene, Eli passed out directly, and Cole recovered immediately after being stunned for a moment, and said to Yitzhak, who was also sweating profusely from anxiety, "Uncle Yizak, please go find Podoka , leave it to me and Norman to take care of it."

Podoka is not only a tailor, but also a pharmacist in the village.

"Okay." Yitzhak nodded immediately and walked out.

Then he turned his head and said to Norman who was standing behind him, "Norman, help me get some water from the river behind the house."

"No problem." Norman nodded, and ran out after speaking.

Cole took care of the unconscious Ai Li, and at the same time found the sungrass powder used for seasoning from the kitchen. This powder tastes spicy and is usually eaten as a seasoning, but it also has a slight effect of stopping bleeding and reducing swelling. Emergency Time is the best.

The top priority now is to stop Tyson's bleeding.

There are too many wounds on his body, small and irregular, like being bitten by insects. It may not be easy to bite Tyson into such a bug, especially judging from the degree of tearing of some wounds, we can see the ferocity of those bugs .

Tyson was pale from blood loss and passed out.

But that's fine too.

Cole couldn't bear to look at Tyson's bloody left eye socket, and used the water Norman brought back to do a preliminary cleaning for him. After he finished these, Yitzhak brought Podoka and the patriarch over. .

Podoka walked in, and after carefully checking Tyson's face, his expression suddenly changed, only to hear him whisper to the patriarch: "It's the bloody bee, that's right."

Bloody bee?

Cole widened his eyes in shock.

Could it be... the bloody bee from last time?

Cole and Norman looked at each other, and the faces of the two who had seen the bloody bee were not very good. Later, when Podoka treated Tyson's wound, he asked everyone to wait outside, and Eli looked in while crying. Iza Ke kept comforting his partner, while Cole hugged Norman tightly and remained silent.

Soon, Podoka and the patriarch came out, and said to Eli and the others with regret on their faces: "Tyson was sucked a lot of blood by the bloody bees, and it is already the limit to survive. Fortunately, you dealt with it in time, otherwise the consequences will be disastrous. I have bandaged his wound, but..." Podoka sighed, "Whether he can wake up depends on his will."

That said, Tyson isn't out of the woods yet.

Eli covered his face and wept, while Yitzhak suppressed his emotions and whispered to Podoka, "I'm sorry to trouble you today."

"You take good care of Tyson, I will let the guard orcs step up their patrols." The patriarch also comforted Eli and the others, then looked back at Cole and Norman, and left without saying a word.

That gaze was complicated and sharp.

When the night subsided, the family returned to the house, exhausted but unable to sleep, and they all stayed by the seriously injured Tyson.

Looking at Tyson whose life was hanging by a thread, Cole unconsciously grasped Norman's hand, and after Norman realized it, he also grasped Cole slightly, and rubbed his whole body, and Cole, who was aware of it, turned his head and happened to touch him. Seeing Norman's comforting gaze, my heart eased a lot.

Then he touched Norman's head and smiled bitterly, but his body was shaking.

Who can be happy when something like this happens?

Death was close at hand, and the bloody scene always reminded him of the situation at that time, but fortunately Tyson was still alive.

"Will Tyson be okay?" Cole seemed to be talking to himself.

Looking at Cole, Norman nodded and said, "Don't worry Cole, Tyson won't die so easily, he will definitely survive."

Although it was comforting words, there was indeed a lot of peace of mind in my chest.

The next day, the news that Tyson was attacked by the bloody bees spread throughout the village. The village not only strengthened the guards, but also stopped allowing females to walk around the edge of the tribe, saying it was for safety.

Can't pick fruit anymore, so Cole decided to go to the field and prepare to turn the soil.

However, when he came to his own land, he found that the land had been messed up, and all the germinated seeds had been trampled to death.

Looking around, he couldn't find the instigator. Looking at these poor seeds, Cole probably understood what was going on.

Got bullied again.

Smiling helplessly, not wanting to think too much, Cole tidied up his land regrettably, and it took him a long time to rearrange it. When he was so tired that he stood up again to take a rest, he was suddenly poured from head to toe. After pouring a basin of cold water, Cole looked up and saw the females in the nearby land. They were looking at him with contempt and mocking eyes. One of the females holding a wooden bucket covered her mouth and smiled: "Oh, I didn't hold it securely." Woolen cloth."

The other female replied, "Fortunately, it didn't spill on anyone."

"Yeah, let's go, or it will smell bad every time we pass by." The watering female covered her nose.

"why?"

"Because the owner's land is stinky!" the female exaggerated loudly, and then the rest of the females laughed.

Then, they gave Cole a glance and left arrogantly.

This kind of thing should be commonplace, but they were already very restrained before, why did they intensify today?

It's not easy to work with wet clothes. Cole planned to go home and change, but just halfway there, he tripped over a rope that suddenly appeared in front of his feet. Throw stones at him and shout, "Get out of the village, monster!"

Cole, who stretched out his hands to block the stones and was about to escape, suddenly ran into a female. The female immediately pushed Cole away in disgust, and cursed loudly: "Don't touch me! You unlucky monster! It would be terrible if I was bitten by a bloody bee !"

Bloody bee...?What's the meaning?

Cole was puzzled.

At this moment, Cole was accidentally hit by a stone on his forehead, bleeding instantly.

Those little orcs continued to shout: "Unlucky monster, get out of the village!"

None of the people passing by seemed to want to help him, but instead looked like they were watching a good show.

Cole knew this, clutched his wound and wanted to get up and leave, but suddenly the female grabbed his ear again, causing him to scream in pain, and then he was pushed to the ground again, and then the female kicked him. Cole kicked, staring fiercely at his eyes and said, "Why don't you get out of this village? You caused so much harm to the Allie family, first Norman, then Tyson, huh, I heard all about it, It was you who destroyed the bloody bee's nest, which made everyone fearful. The vengeful bloody bee came to seek revenge from you, right? So you should leave this village quickly, or everyone will be killed by you!"

Cole clutched his stomach, remained silent, and still planned to get up and leave.

Seeing Cole's appearance, the female became even more angry, and directly grabbed Cole's ears. When the passers-by saw it, instead of stopping, they all came to watch, and some even stepped forward to pull Cole together. There was excitement, relief, and deep disgust.

Cole struggled desperately, he just wanted to escape these people and get home, so he didn't say a word.

Because he knew that no matter what he said, it was useless. These people hated him for a day or two, but he didn't know that these people hated him so deeply.

"You are not allowed to bully Cole!" A childish roar came from a distance.

All eyes followed the roar, and it turned out that it was Norman who was so angry that his ears were pricked up. He came over and pushed away those who bullied Cole and stood in front of him. When he found that Cole was bleeding, his eyes immediately became pale. Scarlet red, fierce eyes, and sharp teeth, as if he was about to rush over and bite the opponent's throat in the next moment.

Frightened by Norman's aura, the female took a few steps back, but seeing so many people around her, she became more courageous, so she stabilized her emotions, pointed at Cole who was blocked by Norman, raised her eyebrows and said: "It was that monster that attracted the bloody bees. Even the patriarch said so, why did you protect him? He will harm everyone!"

Norman yelled back furiously: "Cole provoked the blood bee to protect me, so I want to protect Cole, and no one is allowed to bully him!"

Norman!

Cole looked at the small figure in front of him, shocked and moved, his nose was slightly sore, he never thought that Norman would protect himself in such a situation.

"Boy, you have a big tone. I'm already very upset with you. Do you think you are very good? Let's see how long you can protect him!" The onlookers couldn't understand how Norman defended Cole. Suddenly they came up and wrestled with Norman, not one person, but many orcs!

Seeing that the young Norman lost to the siege of the orcs and was beaten up black and blue, Cole was heartbroken, and rushed to hug the little Norman, while bearing the fists of the orcs himself.

The orcs who were hitting Xing's head didn't intend to stop at all, and their heavy fists fell straight on Cole's back.

The spectators showed amused faces.

Seeing this, Norman quickly shouted, "Cole, what are you doing!"

Cole protected Norman even tighter. Although it was painful, he still managed to show a smile. Cole said, "It's okay... No matter how painful it is... I have experienced it... Norman protects me, and I want to protect Norman too." , so this is nothing..."

"Cole...!"

Norman's eyes were slightly red, he was angry and annoyed, why he was not strong enough, why he couldn't protect Cole, but let Cole protect himself...!

"Stop!" Ai Li, who was attracted by the commotion, yelled quickly when he saw this, and rushed to the middle like a madman to protect his two children, hugging him tightly in his arms.

The orcs finally stopped and stepped back slightly.

"Why do you protect this monster so much, Ai Li, you clearly know that this monster killed Tyson, why didn't you drive him out of the village?" the female yelled again.

"Cole didn't do anything!"

"But didn't he destroy the bloody bee's nest before? If that kind of vengeful creature hadn't come to seek revenge on him, how could your Tyson have suffered such serious injuries!"

"Blood bee..." Eli opened his eyes slightly, and asked with trembling lips, "How do you know?"

"Hmph, everyone knows." The female said disdainfully.

"Impossible!" Ai Li suddenly lowered his head and whispered, "I obviously didn't tell anyone..."

Seeing this, the female got even more excited: "Ai Li, it's all your fault for taking in this monster. If you still want to stay in this village, drive him out!"

Approving voices came from around.

However, when Ai Li heard this sentence, he suddenly raised his head, stared at the female coldly, and said angrily, "It's up to you whether I stay or not, but you, Lydia, you and others What do you want to do by beating my two children in public?"

"That's what the patriarch meant." The female glanced coldly at Eli and sneered.

Ai Li's brows deepened, and he gritted his teeth and said: "Impossible, the patriarch would not do this."

"It's what I meant." Suddenly, the patriarch's voice appeared behind the crowd. Everyone heard the voice and immediately made way for the patriarch. To Aili's surprise, the person who came forward with the group leader turned out to have a face full of anger. Indifference to Yitzhak.

Ai Li's eyes were straightened, and he looked like he couldn't believe it: "Yizhak, it's you..."

Yitzhak looked away quietly, without denying it.

The patriarch looked around for a week and said to everyone: "Yesterday when I went to check on Tyson's injuries, Yitzhak told me that Cole and Norman encountered bloody bees in the woods before, and it was Cole who destroyed the bloody bees. The nest, those ferocious blood bees came here and hurt our excellent orcs, so that no more victims will appear in the village..." Speaking of this, the patriarch lowered his head, looked at Cole coldly, and then indifferently said, "Cole, please leave our village."?
