Traveling through the world of beasts: Controlling the system and building infrastructure

"Why hasn't Xiaofeng come back yet?" An Ruochu frowned as he watched the sky gradually darken.

Considering Xiaofeng's speed, he should have been back by now.

"Indeed. Brother Xiaofeng hasn't come back for such a long time. Could he have encountered any trouble?"

Yue Xuan said this, looking at everyone in horror and quickly covered his mouth with his hands.

An Ruochu glared at him.

I felt vaguely uneasy.

"Do you want me to go out and look for Xiao Feng?"

Tianxiong also found it a little unbelievable.

Logically speaking, Xiaofeng wouldn't be able to fight the panda alone, so it shouldn't be very dangerous. Why hasn't he come back yet?

"No, we are few in number right now. If we act alone rashly, it might backfire." An Ruochu looked very serious and shook his head at Tianxiong.

"What are you afraid of? If something really happens to Xiaofeng, can you, a female, take the responsibility?" A male orc with a scar on his face said with great disapproval.

"Sile!" Tianxiong quickly stopped Sile from talking.

"I don't know if I can be responsible, but this forest is full of unknowns for us. If we act rashly, we will all die." As time passed, An Ruchu's tone became a little impatient.

"Then let's go look for it together, okay?" Looking at the people who were on the verge of a fight, Yue Xuan couldn't help but persuade them.

"I agree! We have to go find Brother Xiaofeng anyway!"

An Ruochu looked at Sile's tall physique and always felt that there was something weird when he called him Brother Xiaofeng.

"An Ruochu, what else do you want to say this time?"

Seeing Sile's provocative look, An Ruochu had no choice but to go find Xiaofeng with everyone else.

"Let's go together."

Everyone hurriedly looked for Xiao Feng in the direction he left.

An Ruochu didn't understand how the males usually cooperated, but looking at their increasingly serious expressions, she could roughly guess that the situation was not good now. After all, even Yue Xuan, who talked the most, was frowning tightly.

"I said we should go find Brother Xiaofeng as soon as possible." Sile became increasingly anxious when he couldn't find Xiaofeng.

"Wait, look!" Yue Xuan sniffed the air carefully and pointed to a hidden bush.

Everyone looked at each other with a very bad expression. An Ruchu looked at everyone and had some vague guesses in his mind.

Sure enough, when I parted the grass, I saw a bloodstain.

Yuexuan had a very sensitive nose. He stepped forward and sniffed hard, trying to identify it.

"Is this Brother Xiaofeng's blood?"

After hearing this, everyone felt relieved.

But now they were worried again. Since Xiaofeng was not injured, why didn't he go back to meet them?

"What should we do now?"

Sile grabbed a handful of his messy hair in annoyance.

"Let's go back to the tribe first and make plans later." After Xiao Feng left, Tianxiong was the only one who could make decisions in the whole team. Seeing Tianxiong say this, no one else had any objection.

An Ruochu sighed with regret.

"Not only did we find nothing, but we even lost Xiao Feng."

"Let's go back to the tribe first. At least send you back, and then we'll continue to look for Xiaofeng." Tianxiong was afraid that An Ruchu would think too much, so he hurried to explain.

An Ruochu choked when she heard someone licking her breasts.

Okay, I already know that I am a burden.

Everyone quickened their pace and headed towards the tribe.

~

Everyone in the cave was eating dried meat in silence. In order to get back to the tribe quickly on the way, they had no time to hunt and could only hurriedly find a cave to rest.

The dim firelight reflected on everyone's faces, and a depressing atmosphere came over them.

After eating the dried meat, everyone else transformed into animal form and took a rest.

The entrance of the cave was blocked by stones by the orcs, and the cold wind did not blow in.

Without Xiaofeng's animal skin, An Ruochu could only sit alone in front of the fire with her legs hugged to keep warm.

An Ruochu looked at the flickering flames and an inexplicable emotion welled up in her eyes.

The system is not with her these days, and even Xiaofeng is missing now.

She was thinking, if she hadn't come out to look for iron ore, or if she hadn't let Yin Ya and the others return to the tribe early, would Xiao Feng have not disappeared?

But money can't buy earlier knowledge. It's too late to say anything now. Thinking of Zhuoya in the tribe, An Ruochu's throat tightened and he didn't know how to face Zhuoya when he returned.

An Ruochu felt uneasy, but her physical exhaustion made her fall into a deep sleep.

The next morning, An Ruochu felt her body getting heavy and her head feeling dizzy. She touched her forehead and found it was indeed a little hot.

The more I don't want to catch a cold, the more I catch it. I slept in a cave before, so why did I catch a cold this time when the cave door was blocked?

An Ruochu's heavy head couldn't figure it out for a moment.

Seeing the orcs ready to set off, An Ruchu quickly packed up and caught up with the crowd.

With Tianxiong holding her collar, An Ruochu felt gusts of wind blowing into her clothes through the collar. The cold wind blowing on her hot skin made her shiver.

There were only a few of them, including a female, so they could only avoid the gathering places of wild beasts and hurry on their way. Fortunately, they had already explored the road when they came, and their speed was much faster than when they came here.

An Ruochu was being swung in the air by Tianxiong, and couldn't help but miss Xiaofeng's broad back. At least it was much more comfortable than swinging like this. Her head was getting more and more dizzy, and An Ruochu couldn't help but faint again.

When she woke up again, she saw Granny Mori standing beside her with a worried look on her face.

"I'm back?" An Ruochu said with a hoarse voice. Due to the lack of water for a long time, she could only barely utter this sentence. After she finished speaking, her throat felt as if she had swallowed a burning coal.

Granny Sen handed her a bowl of water at the right time.

An Ruochu looked at the water, his eyes shining, and drank a whole bowl of it before stopping.

"Granny, Xiao Feng is missing."

"I already know that Xiaofeng was taken to the Tiger Tribe." Granny Sen sighed, her tone quite sad, and even her usually straight back was now a little hunched.

"Tiger Tribe? How could that be?" An Ruochu opened his eyes wide in surprise.

How could Xiao Feng be taken to the Tiger Tribe? He clearly disappeared in the forest. That place is much far from where the Tiger Tribe hunts, how could they meet there?

"They attacked the tribe before you came back. Fortunately, the wall you built helped to hold them off for a while, so that we could hold out until Shuangyue and his men came back from hunting, and they didn't succeed."

"When you came back, the Tiger Tribe attacked for the second time. After they put you down, Tianxiong and his men joined the battle. Just when they were about to catch them all in one fell swoop, Hu Yunque said that Xiaofeng had been captured by them."

"Could it be that they are cheating?" An Ruochu remembered that this was how they had cheated away so much meat before.

Granny Mori shook her head.

We did see Sao Feng.
