obligatory love

Ling Rou had never been so flustered before, everything happened so fast that he was completely confused, and could only cover up his bewilderment with his usual indifference.The arm of the person in his arms was still bleeding outwards, and the other hand was trying to cover the wound...

That's not a hand, that's a claw, a tiger paw.

Starting from the bottom of the forearm and close to the wrist, Yellen's right hand has mutated into a tiger claw that should have appeared in a beast-like state. Now it has been stained red with blood, and it is even more shocking against the snow-white fur.

"Put me down quickly, it's not hurting my leg, I can walk by myself..."

"Shut up!" Lingrou glared at him fiercely, not daring to stop at all. "Hide your paws!"

"Huh?" Yellen's expression became extremely unnatural in an instant, and she picked out a mocking smile, and even raised her paw on purpose. "Why, are you afraid too?"

"Hide it well! Don't let others see it!" Lingrou deliberately lowered her voice, yelling with only her breath, sounding extremely harsh.

"Understood, long-winded." Yellen said unhurriedly, but quietly buried his right hand in his clothes.

Ning Luo never left patients in his room, and Ling Rou didn't bother to knock on the door, just kicked it open and kept shouting "Witch Doctor, Witch Doctor!".Ning Luo, who was dozing off with the quilt on the bed, was awakened by the sound of kicking the door, and quickly got out of bed.

"What's the matter?" Ning Luo lifted the curtain and came out from the inner room, and immediately became serious when he saw this, "Bring the person to the inner room, don't make a fuss."

As a witch doctor, Ning Luo has more privileges than others. There is a duplex room divided into inner and outer rooms. The outer room contains some herbal medicine books, and sometimes handles some emergencies. The inner room is used for rest, except for a few acquaintances. Few people come in.

"Lingrou, go outside and get my creative medicine, it's on the second floor of the cabinet, the third box from the left..." Ning Luo froze suddenly before he finished speaking.

Yellen waved her right paw awkwardly.

Ling Rou pursed her lips and stared at Ning Luo, nervous and guarded.

"Why am I driving like this?" Ning Luo glanced at Lingrou, "What? You still want to kill someone? Then you have to wait until I finish treating the wound. Hurry up and get the medicine!"

Ling Rou was taken aback, and immediately turned around and quickly walked outside.

"Don't you find it strange?" Yellen asked softly with her face raised.

"It's quite strange." Ning Luo took out the scissors from the bedside cabinet, cut off Yellen's sleeve, and carefully peeled it off from the wound. say."

Yellen shut her mouth in embarrassment.This witch doctor is the only one in the whole village that he respects and fears. Earlier, Ning Luo asked himself if he wanted to be his apprentice, but after being rejected by himself, he never mentioned it again, as if Not caring at all.

"Medicine." Ling Rou rushed into the inner room in two steps, not paying attention to the conversation between the two.

Ning Luo treated Yellen's wound in an orderly manner, as if she was doing an ordinary thing.The yellowish powder was sprinkled on the hideous wound, and bloody white foam appeared, accompanied by a small hissing sound that made the scalp tingle.

"Hiss—" Yellen took a breath.

"Patience." Ning Luo said, the strength of his hands remained undiminished

Ling Rou couldn't resist taking a step forward, but was stopped by Ning Luo's eyes.

"Go and watch from the outside, don't let anyone come in. He doesn't know when this claw will change back."

Ling Rou hesitated for a moment, looked at Ning Luo with a cold face, then at Yellen who clenched her teeth and twitched at the corners of her mouth, stomped her feet and finally listened to Ning Luo's words and went to the outside room obediently.

As soon as the curtain was lifted, Ling Rou was taken aback, only to see Cheng Yuan sitting on a chair with a serious expression, the door was tightly covered.

"Teacher..." Lingrou's lips moved slightly.If Ning Luo dared to tell about Yellen's mutation, he could kill people to silence it, but facing Cheng Yuan, he might not be able to do so no matter what.

"Is Yellen okay?" Cheng Yuan smiled tiredly at Lingrou, his slender neck looked extremely pale and fragile under the reflection of the night pearl, and the light blue blood vessels were faintly visible.

"...It's okay, the witch doctor is already bandaging him." Lingrou replied.

"That's good. I rushed over and found that the door was still ajar, so I quickly closed the door. In case someone accidentally broke in, I just stayed here and didn't look inside."

"Hmm..." Lingrou replied in a muffled voice.

"Sit." Cheng Yuan patted the chair beside him as a gesture.

Ling Rou pursed her lips, and sat a little far away from Cheng Yuan hesitantly.

Cheng Yuan glanced at Ling Rou, but said nothing.

"Thank you for saving me today, otherwise, I might have died." Cheng Yuan's tone was still unhurried, as soft as a spring breeze.

"...It's nothing." After a pause, Ling Rou added, "It should."

In fact, he was not the only one who subconsciously saved people at that time...

"Not only you, but I should also thank Yellen."

Ling Rou raised her eyes.

Cheng Yuan's gaze did not fall on him, and he only said slowly, "If you want me to say, you two really hit it off, and you have cooperated so well after training together for a short time. The battlefield...is when hunting, so there must be a tacit understanding." At the end, Cheng Yuan reached out and stroked Lingrou's hair naturally, "I didn't teach you for nothing."

Ling Rou looked away, lowered her head slightly, "Yes."

"I haven't bitten my tendon, just take care of it honestly after taking the medicine, it won't be disabled, and the claws just turned back..." Ning Luo walked and said, except when Nei Jian turned his head, he saw that he had been sitting there for a long time Cheng Yuan said, "Hey, why are you here?" He said and glanced at Lingrou.

Ling Rou remained silent, got up and entered the inner room.

"Oh, Yellen was injured to save me, of course I have to come and take a look." Cheng Yuan stood up and nodded to Ning Luo, as a greeting for his uninvited visit.

"That's it." Ning Luo went to the cupboard to wash his hands, and the water in the basin was instantly dyed bright red. "Tell me, what's going on."

……

"Sure enough, there are backhands." Ning Luo leaned on the chair with Erlang's legs crossed, and snorted coldly.

"What do you mean?" Cheng Yuan wondered.During this period of time, things happened one after another, which made him a little confused, and seemed to know something vaguely.

"This she-wolf is here for revenge, you understand that, don't you?"

"En." Cheng Yuan nodded.He just thought about the past two days while sitting here, and he came up with such a guess, which seems to be exactly the same as Ning Luo's point of view.

"However, this is by no means just a 'suicide attack' by a wolf."

Cheng Yuan frowned, "Behind the scenes...is there a pusher?"

Ning Luo pulled a thin blanket over his body, adjusted a more comfortable posture, and said, "The young wolf has always been the key protection object of the wolves, how could it be such a coincidence that they appeared alone dying in the deserted snow On the ground, is there such a coincidence that the hunting team came across it? You must know that the weather was not good that day, the hunting team did not go far, and only patrolled the road that they usually walk on weekdays. A place where few animals were seen in the past appeared out of thin air Wounded wolf cub, don't you find it strange?"

Cheng Yuan's expression darkened slightly.

"And think about it again, that pup's hind legs are lame, and I've seen it at the time, it's definitely not from hunting, but from an old injury." Ning Luo slowed down, and continued, " Think about it, if a soldier with no combat effectiveness appears in front of the enemy army majestically, what effect will it have?"

Cheng Yuan tentatively asked, "Bait?"

Ning Luo didn't answer, but continued to ask, "And this abandoned soldier happens to have a 'friend' who values ​​him very much and also has a strong fighting ability, so what will the role of this soldier become?"

Cheng Yuan rolled his eyes, "You mean... that wolf cub was used as a trigger, which aroused the anger of the female wolf, and then made this... what you call a 'suicide attack'?" Thinking After a while, Cheng Yuan shook his head again, "But it's not right, if the wolves want to send a wolf in, they can just arrange the manpower directly, so why is it so troublesome and unnecessary?"

Ning Luo suddenly sat up straight, looked straight into Cheng Yuan's eyes, and said, "If the wolves are behind this incident, they should be able to do it directly, but what if it's not?"

Cheng Yuan's eyelids twitched suddenly, "You mean, there are others?"

"It's hard to say." Ning Luo nestled back, and returned to his lazy look, "There are still many things that don't make sense, and I can't figure it out for a while. But one thing is for sure, the wolf king will never send For a wolf to make such a sure-fire attack, it would break his trust with the pack. So there's something to it."

Cheng Yuan bit his lower lip lightly, his face full of doubts and entanglements.

"Okay, I'm tired. This person needs to rest more when he's old. You can take the two children inside with you. What are you doing in there after the wounds are covered?"

"Okay." Cheng Yuan stood up and was about to walk inside when he suddenly remembered something and turned around and asked, "I've always had a question."

Ning Luo didn't even bother to open his eyes, "What?"

Cheng Yuan glanced inside, squatted down and whispered in Ning Luo's ear, "In this world, there are fox orcs, and there are fox orcs, but I haven't seen or heard of them for a long time." Beastmen', but you just said, 'Wolf King'?"

Ning Luo opened his eyes faintly, "There are no orcs in the wolf clan. But there are wolf kings in the wolf clan." After finishing speaking, Ning Luo closed his eyes again and began to rest his mind, "You can go back and ask Sokel about the others, and he will tell you You. Remember, you can only ask Sokel." In the last sentence, Ning Luo's voice was extremely low.

Cheng Yuan's heart was pounding, he only felt today that there were so many secrets in this man who was always in black robe and veil.
