Orc Horde Upgrade System

Chapter 5 Xuan is Back

In the cave, Meng Yuqing sat by the fire and looked at the already dark sky, frowning. Xuan hadn't come back yet, so he couldn't help but worry a little, whether Xuan's hunting went well and whether he would be injured, tonight. . .Can you come back.

Before leaving, Xuan cleaned up the surroundings again, and left his own mark on the surroundings again to ensure that there were no beasts nearby that could threaten Meng Yuqing. Yes, to confirm again, the system told him that there were no beasts around that could threaten him.

Standing up, I moved my sore legs from sitting for a long time, estimated the time, and it was already midnight, recalling Xuan's tone of voice that was very different from usual when talking about hunting shadow beasts, Meng Yuqing didn't feel sleepy at all.

Just when he stretched his neck to look at the entrance of the cave for the first time, the sound of heavy objects dragging the floor and heavy footsteps came from outside the cave, and Meng Yuqing became alert instantly.

"System, explore!" As he said, he immediately extinguished the fire, held his breath, and leaned his back against the mountain wall. The system's exploration range is not large, with himself as the center and a radius of 50 meters.

"System, can you explore it?" Meng Yuqing asked the system in her head, but countless thoughts flashed in her mind, could it be Xuan outside the cave?Xuan's footsteps can't be so heavy, are they injured?Or, if it wasn't Xuan, would it find itself?

"Exploring—the creature the host wants to explore has not yet entered the exploration range. It is continuing to explore for 20 minutes. Please wait a moment for the host."

"!!!" Meng Yuqing didn't know what expression to put on to express her current mood.

"According to the analysis of the existing information, this creature has the power to threaten the life and safety of the host. The system will use energy to cover the host and hide the host's aura. This energy is paid in advance by the system to the host. After the host gets through the difficulties, work hard to complete the task and develop The tribe gets energy to pay back."

A cold voice sounded, and immediately Meng Yuqing felt that he was surrounded by an invisible force, and also felt that he could not move freely, which made him feel a little uncomfortable.

"Please don't try to move the host, it will consume more energy." The system's voice sounded again. Hearing what the system said, Meng Yuqing stopped the body that was slightly adjusted due to discomfort.

Keeping the original posture, Meng Yuqing listened intently to the movement outside the cave. The system continued to explore, and the sound was getting closer.

"The target enters the exploration range, confirm the target—Xuan, whether the host can unhide it."

"Really? Undo it!" Meng Yuqing's eyes lit up, she stood up immediately, and walked towards the entrance of the cave.

Outside the cave, Xuan's gigantic body was hidden in the darkness. His steps were heavy, and he was holding something in his mouth. It was so big that it dragged on the ground in pitch black. He couldn't see what it was. He walked very slowly. When he saw Meng Yuqing running out, he suddenly He paused, quickened his pace, and after a while stopped at a place 5 meters away from Meng Yuqing, let go of his mouth, his huge body swayed, adjusted his steps to stand firm, and slowly sat down.

The sound of the heavy object falling to the ground was muffled, and dust was splashed. Meng Yuqing reached out and waved the dust away.

"Xuan! You're back! I still have some roasted meat left, come and taste my cooking."

Pushing aside the tall grass in front of his chest, Meng Yuqing walked towards Xuan quickly. When he came in front of Xuan, he opened his eyes wide and looked at him in surprise. There were many wounds on his body. Especially the two big bloody holes on the shoulders, where blood was still lying out.The once satiny fur was now pitted and clotted with blood.The ups and downs of his chest were much bigger than usual, panting heavily, and occasionally a low moan came out of his throat.

Seeing him coming, Xuan moved her forelegs, and slowly lay down on her stomach. Meng Yuqing looked at Xuan with distress, stretched out her hand, and wanted to touch him, but Xuan obediently lowered her head.

Covering Shangxuan's forehead, his hands were warm, the black fur was softer than expected, his face was also stained with blood, and many hairs were clotted, but there was no wound, maybe it was splashed.

"Are you still asleep at this time? Or did I wake you up?" Xuan put his head on his forelegs and said with his eyes closed.

"Can't sleep." Meng Yuqing pursed her lips and continued, "I haven't seen you come back, so I don't feel at ease."

"Now that I'm back, go to sleep. Tomorrow I have to deal with the Shadow Beast's corpse. I have to bring it back in its entirety."

"Don't you rest for a few days? What about your injury?"

"It's okay, I only hurt the fur, just rest for one night and it will be fine."

"Who are you lying to? Coming back so out of breath, I can't even stand still." Hearing what he said, Meng Yuqing patted his forehead lightly and said dissatisfied.

"It was almost dark when I killed it, and it took a little effort to drag it back without dealing with it." Xuan moved his ears, not avoiding Meng Yuqing's pat.

"Why don't you take care of it and take a break? Come back in such a hurry." Meng Yuqing frowned, carelessly rubbing Xuan's short hair.

"I don't worry about you being a sub-beast spending the night in the wild. Although the surrounding area has been cleaned up, I'm still afraid of accidents." Xuan opened his eyes, looked at the ground, and moved his tail subconsciously, with a trace of imperceptible guilt.

Hearing what he said, Meng Yuqing was taken aback for a moment. He and Xuan Cong realized that it was only the third day, and it was hard to say that there was any deep friendship. His purpose of being willing to follow each other from the very beginning was also very simple. In order to save his life, he also I have been under the protection of the other party, and until now I have not explicitly said that I want to join the other party's tribe, it is only one of the options for completing the task.

However, in the face of Xuan's sincere and straightforward concern, he didn't know what to say for a moment. He wanted to say, I'm not worth it, but he opened his mouth, but he couldn't make a sound.

"I...... Wait a minute, I'll bring something here." After a long time, Meng Yuqing made a dry voice.He turned his head and ran into the cave, leaving Liu Xuan wondering where he was.

"System, how should I use the hemostatic grass?" Meng Yuqing picked up the hemostatic grass collected earlier, and asked the system as she walked towards Xuan.

"Crush it and apply it externally." A systematic response quickly came to my mind.

After questioning and answering, Meng Yuqing had already walked in front of Xuan, looked at such a big black panther in front of her, and looked at the hemostatic grass in her hand, which was pitifully understated.

"Xuan, can you transform into a human form? It's fine if it's inconvenient."

Xuan didn't know why, but he sat up obediently and turned into a human form. A handsome guy with black hair and green eyes appeared. Those wounds were even more hideous under the naked skin of the human form, especially the shoulder, as if he had been bitten through. .

Meng Yuqing stuffed a few stalks of hemorrhage into her mouth, chewed and said, "I found some herbs that can stop bleeding and reduce inflammation, it may hurt a little, bear with it." He said and put the hemostat on the wound on Xuan's shoulder. erase.

Xuan looked at him in surprise, but didn't refuse, just sat obediently and let him move.The hemostatic herb took effect very quickly, and within a short time after it was applied, there was no more blood flowing from the shoulder that had been bleeding non-stop before.

Thinking of the anti-inflammatory effect of hemostatic grass, Meng Yuqing chewed up all the remaining herbs and wiped them on Xuan's body.

Xuan kept watching him quietly, cooperating with his movements, and waited until he had used up the hemostatic grass and most of the wounds on his body had been treated before he spoke.

"You know medicine? Are you a witch?" He shook his head while speaking, "No, you are too young, not the age of a witch, are you an apprentice of a witch?" Xuan's expression was very serious, and his eyes were bright.

"Ah? No, I'm not a witch, and I'm not a witch's apprentice." Meng Yuqing quickly waved his hand to deny it. He understood the word witch, but he didn't know what status a witch represented in this world, so he didn't dare to misidentify it.

"But you know medicine, right?" Xuan ignored his denial, leaned forward slightly, and continued to ask in a tone of expectation.

"Hmm... Maybe." Meng Yuqing said vaguely, "Only a little bit." With the system in place, he might understand.

Hearing what he said, Xuan could no longer hide his excitement, stood up and walked around him several times before calming down, and sat back facing him again.

"Go to sleep, hurry up until tomorrow, I can't wait to take you back to the tribe, Meng Yuqing, I really hope you can stay in our tribe, but I will respect you Thoughts, I hope you can seriously consider our tribe."

After sitting down, Xuan extended an invitation to Meng Yuqing again with a more solemn attitude than before. Only then did Meng Yuqing realize that when Xuan extended the invitation to herself before, she vaguely avoided his invitation. In the eyes and very clear.But he didn't care about his attitude, instead he protected himself very seriously.Thinking of this, Meng Yuqing couldn't help but feel a little uncomfortable, she moved her fingers and looked up at Xuan, and said with a serious expression.

"I can't reply to you right now, but I will seriously consider it, Xuan, I know you are a good person, and I believe your tribe must be a good tribe too, but sorry, I have to see it myself, You have to experience it yourself to make a decision.”

"I understand, you don't need to be burdened. If you think my tribe is not suitable, I know other tribes around. I will accompany you to have a look." Hearing Meng Yuqing's answer, Xuan was a little disappointed. But soon cheered up again.

"Xuan... Anyway, thank you very much." Meng Yuqing looked at the young man in front of her, a little moved.

"It's very late, you should go to rest quickly, get ready after dawn, I will take you to my tribe to see."Xuan smiled, stood up while talking, his figure gradually blurred, and turned into the appearance of a big black panther again, arching Meng Yuqing and urged.

Meng Yuqing got up, couldn't help reaching out and touching Xuan's head again, hey, I really want to touch the uninjured big black leopard whose fur is like satin at the beginning, I don't know if there is a chance.

Xuan was also docile, and let him touch it, but his ears moved a little uncomfortably. This sub-beast liked his animal shape very much.

Back in the cave and lying on a bed made of hay, Meng Yuqing looked at Xuan who was still guarding the entrance of the cave, and thought to himself, as long as it wasn't something she couldn't accept at all, it would be fine to stay in Xuan's tribe.However, a tribe with Xuan should be a very good tribe.

I yawned, calculated the time, it was already midnight when Xuan came back, and then I was dealing with wounds and talking heart-to-heart, I guess it will be dawn in a while, and there are still a lot of things waiting, let’s rest first, dawn Besides.
