Outside, the orcs were being treated by Shui Li one by one. Some of them were slightly injured, and some were seriously injured. They had to rest for ten days or so.

Those with lesser injuries cleaned up the orc corpses inside and outside the tribe according to Mu Bai's instructions, Zhuoxi's arrows were also taken out, cleaned and placed outside Mu Bai's house.

When they left, they looked at the door curtain of their leader, thought for a while and left without saying anything.

Before they changed, no one talked about that young man casually, and the dead appearance of the orcs killed by Zhuoxi still remained in their minds.

It has to be said that the shocking effect brought by that picture is quite strong. They never thought that the weird-looking thing in the female's hand could be so powerful.

Of course, they knew that if the small arrows were shot at some thicker parts, they wouldn't cause much damage, but every time the boy shot, he aimed at the fatal points of those orcs.

This kind of precision ability...is actually possessed by a thin female. What he picks up is not a seed or a weaving tool, but something that can kill a mighty orc.

Now they feel an emotion called embarrassment.They looked down on Xia Zhou like that before, but now their faces are burning with pain.

This made them like silent quails, and invariably stopped mentioning the female.

Seeing this situation, Gu Mo felt a sense of crisis in an instant. He just watched Mu Bai and Zhuo Xi enter the room together, but they never came out, and the hand holding the window frame turned white.

Could it be... I have no hope at all?

That Xia Zhou is so powerful... how can he compare to the other party?

"A Chi and his family seem to want to thank Xia Zhou." His mother said to him: "At the end of the ancient times, you have to hold your breath."

Gu Mo: "...But he is so strong, he can kill orcs!"

"My child." The mother came to him and put her hands on his shoulders, "It is because of this that you have more hope."

Gu Mo didn't quite understand, "Why?"

"Because females have been the weak side since ancient times." Gu Mo's mother said slowly, "And Xia Zhou is too strong, which is not a good thing. Didn't you see that although everyone in the tribe doesn't speak ill of him now, Has no one said anything good about him?"

Gu Mo felt that he seemed to understand something, "Is that so..."

"We don't need such a powerful female, it will bring a sense of threat to the orcs. The leader must like a gentle and virtuous female like you, understand?"

"...Yes." Gu Mo nodded and pulled himself together again, "Mother, you are right!"

Even if Xia Zhou is capable, so what?He can't pass on the family line for Mu Bai!And a female has such a terrifying ability, of course everyone will not like him much.

A female like him is the most normal, a female should do what a female should do, not like that Xia Zhou.

Everyone didn't really accept him, and it was impossible for the leader to marry him.Gu Mo thought this way, and his confidence returned.

She is the most suitable female to be Mu Bai's partner!

"Son, now the leader is slightly injured, you should take the initiative to find him and show him your tenderness and consideration." Gu Mo's mother taught him.

Gu Mo: "Okay, I know mother!"

He thought for a while, took some fruits from home, arranged them in a nice shape, then ran to Shui Li, bought some medicinal herbs and cloth strips for healing wounds, and carried them to Mu Bai's house together.

In the house, one person and one beast had just slept peacefully for a while, and then they were woken up together by the sound of footsteps coming from the door.

They had the same vigilance, they were very sensitive to the movement caused by the man outside, and they woke up immediately.

Gu Mo didn't know that he woke up the two people inside. He stood at the door with his things in his arms and asked inside, "Boss, can I come in?"

Mu Bai raised his huge head, looked down at the boy who opened his eyes on his stomach, and slowly shook his big tail.

"Wait a moment."

Gu Mo: "?" Why wait a minute, what are the two of them doing inside?

He couldn't help but start brainstorming, and then he mentally made himself a little angry.

No, he must be gentle and virtuous as his mother said, Gu Mo told himself.

He adjusted his mood and responded, "Okay."

Mu Bai opened his beast's mouth and yawned. When he lowered his head, he saw Zhuo Xi staring at him with piercing eyes, as if he had never seen him before.

Well, Zhuoxi has never seen a big cat yawning at such a close distance, it's a bit strange, isn't that normal?

Mu Bai looked at him: "?"

The boy smiled slightly and said, "The teeth are all good."

Mu Bai's ears moved, and his tone was flat: "...Thank you for the compliment."

Zhuo Xi backed away from his stomach, stood up and said, "Let him in."

Mu Bai: "Yes."

Hearing that Mu Bai let him in, Gu Mo lifted the curtain and walked in with some joy, then he paused because he saw Zhuo Xi was sitting at the wooden table beside him wiping his bone knife.

I just wiped it casually before, but didn't clean it up, and there were still a little red marks on it. Gu Mo turned pale when he saw it: it must be the blood of some orc.

And the way the young man wiped it calmly and expressionlessly made people tremble in the heart.

For some reason, Gu Mo suddenly became discouraged.

He put down the supplies he was holding, and said tremblingly, "Chief, chief... I'm here to deliver things to you..."

After glancing at those things, Mu Bai said, "I'm sorry to trouble you."

He thought that Gu Mo was entrusted by Shui Li to deliver these, so he didn't think about anything else at all.

Gu Mo: "Then that, I'll go first...!" He took a few steps back, took one last look at Zhuoxi, and then ran out.

Mu Bai looked a little puzzled, he looked at the boy who was still cleaning the bone knife.

Zhuoxi raised her lips while wiping, and said to him: "He seems to like the leader very much."

Mu Bai thought for a while, "Is there?"

He only knew that Gu Mo's parents really wanted to marry their child to him, but he didn't pay much attention to Gu Mo's feelings for him.

Zhuoxi did not continue to discuss this issue.

Mu Bai looked at him: "Is your hand okay?"

Before he was a teenager, he used hand-drawn bows and bone knives, so the joints of his hands must have suffered a lot of wear and tear, and his wrists might hurt.

Zhuo Xi stopped what he was doing, looked at the big cat that took up most of the space in the room, and raised his eyebrows.

"Just a little sour, nothing wrong."

The man turned a blind eye to Gu Mo's many gestures of favor, his nerves were thicker than a hemp rope, but he could notice such details as his hands. I really don't know whether he was careless or careful.

Yes, he was quite happy.

Mu Bai shook his tail at him and motioned, "Come here."

"What's the matter?" the boy asked, but obediently passed by.

Then, his wrist was lightly encircled by the tail.

The man controlled his strength with his tail, and massaged his wrist gently and gently. After pressing this hand, he motioned for him to raise the other hand.

Zhuoxi blinked and did as he did.

After both hands were massaged thoughtfully by the other party, he sighed: "It turns out that the tail has so many uses."

And it's not very hard, it feels soft and warm, and the massage effect is very good.

Makes him even a little bit tempted to present a pennant to a man.

Mu Bai also blinked, thinking of something, the slightly wagging tail suddenly stopped.

Zhuoxi picked two fruits from the supplies brought by the end of the ancient times, took a bite, and said to the man: "I'll go find Shui Li, you should have a good rest." Then she turned around and left.

"..." Mu Bai saw that he was leaving just like that, and his pair of animal pupils looked at the door without moving away.

He didn't want the boy to leave, but he didn't know how to ask him to stay.

Just watching the other party leave my sight, it felt like a sudden emptiness in my heart.

Outside, Zhuo Xi had just walked a few steps, when Gu Mo who had just left suddenly rushed in front of him, clenched his fists and said: "...I'm not afraid of you, hmph!"

He stared at Zhuoxi, and after he finished speaking harshly, he suddenly turned around and ran away.

Zhuo Xi: "..." He took a mouthful of the fruit speechlessly, um, this time it's quite sweet.

It should be chosen by the other party for the man deliberately, but Zhuoxi was the first to eat it.

Walking in the tribe, he noticed that the eyes of the people in the tribe, no matter whether they were orcs or females, had changed when they looked at him. They were not as contemptuous and contemptuous as before, but cautious and defensive.

But at least, no one dared to gossip in front of him.

Achi's family, who were rescued by Zhuoxi, hesitated for a while, but still stepped forward and bowed to him.

"Xia Zhou, thank you... If it wasn't for you, my Achi might be... Anyway, thank you very much."

A Chi's family handed him a basket of good-looking fruits, and two pieces of cloth woven by the female of the family.

When A Chi was dragged out by that orc, his mother was crying in the house, but there was nothing she could do.Just when he thought that A Chi's life was in danger, the young man's appearance changed the situation and allowed A Chi to escape, so that he could receive Shui Li's treatment in time.

Now A Chi is only injured in his arm, and he can still recover after a few months of care. The family members are grateful to Zhuo Xi who saved him, and feel ashamed that they excluded young people like the tribal people before.

Anyway...he saved their child, that's a solid fact.

Zhuo Xi said lightly: "I didn't want to save him."

To be honest, he didn't have any feelings for these people. They rejected him from the beginning, and he always knew it.

Without feelings, how can we talk about the word rescue? He made the move at that time, but it was only for himself.

A Chi's family members looked at each other in dismay when they heard the words. They didn't expect the boy to answer in this way. They thought that Zhuo Xi would accept their gift as a matter of course because he saved A Chi.

But now it seems that the teenager has no interest in the gift of thanks from them.

In the end, Zhuoxi still didn't accept their things, but just said goodbye, and continued to look for Shui Li.

Achi's mother: "...does he think we gave too little?"

Achi's father sighed, and said to his partner: "He probably... doesn't care about these things. Forget it, let's take it back."

"Okay... hey, Ah Chi can only lie at home these few months, my poor child..."
