"Ye! Where's Huanchuan?!" Ye had just returned to the village entrance when he saw Lang Fu standing at the door waiting for them to come back. Seeing Ye covered in wounds, Lang Fu's already tense nerves almost broke.

When the chief asked them to take Huanchuan out in the beginning, it was because he regarded him as a expendable person. And just as he thought, by sending him out alone, he could buy enough time for the other sub-orcs to escape.

Lang Fu knew it, and Ye knew it too, but at that time neither of them had thought that they would actually encounter stray orcs.

Ye's heart is full of guilt now. He originally thought that he could protect this little beast.

Several sub-beasts ran over and saw Ye's back, seemingly soundless and covered in blood. Huanchuan covered his mouth in surprise.

"Put him down first." An orc who looked somewhat petite walked out. He did not look very old, but his expression was very haggard. His eyes were dull, and he could only grope his way forward wherever he went.

He is the witch of the wolf tribe. Huanchuan has not seen him yet, but he has heard many people talking about Huanchuan. He is an innocent little sub-beast with a cute smile. He also likes to learn things. He has many strange things on his body and looks like a little sub-beast who is well protected.

The chief couldn't just accept him into the wolf tribe; he also thought he couldn't just accept him into their tribe.

As a witch, he watched how Yu little by little transformed the wolf tribe, which once could not even get enough food, into the current situation where sixty or seventy orcs could actually protect more than twenty sub-beasts. Over the years, they have not become slaves of other tribes, and everyone can live and work in peace.

The wolf tribe's witch is rarely an old man, and he is quite handsome, but it's a pity that he can't see.

He didn't have time to think any more and asked someone to send Huanchuan to his tent.

Several sub-beasts followed Wu into the tent. Ye saw the little sub-beast disappear into the tent, and finally felt relieved and fell to the ground with a thump.

Although Huan Chuan did not wake up, he could vaguely hear someone talking. His head was dizzy, his whole body was weak, and he even had difficulty breathing.

It was just like the feeling of sleep paralysis, he even heard his parents' voices, but they were very far away. He stretched out his hands, wanting to catch them, but the voices were getting farther and farther away. No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't catch up with them.

Afterwards he struggled to wake up, and saw a familiar face in his blurry vision. It was Ye.

"You're awake? Are you okay?" Ye's expression was full of surprise, even though his wounds had not yet healed completely, and there was a layer of green medicine on his strong arms.

Huan Chuan sat up. This was not the big tent where he usually lived. Compared with the big tent, this place was much more luxurious, and the ground beside it was filled with bottles and jars.

"This is the witch's tent. The witch helps treat the injured sub-beasts." Ye saw his confusion and handed him a cup made of leaves filled with water.

Huan Chuan thanked him and took a sip of water.

The two people didn't know what to say. Although Ye had a lot of questions, he didn't know what to say either.

The awkward atmosphere in the air did not last long, and a handsome man walked in. He looked tentatively in the direction of Huan Chuan: "Is he awake?"

Ye immediately stood up and walked to Wu's side: "Huanchuan is awake. He is fine now." He helped Wu sit next to Huanchuan.

Huan Chuan stared into the young man's eyes and realized that this handsome man could not see.

"Hello, this should be the first time we meet. I am the witch of the wolf tribe. I don't have a name, so you can just call me witch." The witch probably guessed that Huan Chuan was looking at his eyes, but he didn't care. After all, many people didn't know when and how he became blind.

More than a decade of education taught Huanchuan that he should not focus on other people's flaws. Once he confirmed that the person couldn't see him, Huanchuan stopped obsessing over his eyes.

After washing the blood off Huanchuan's body, he found that there were no other wounds on Huanchuan's body except some abrasions and scratches. After helping him treat his wounds, he started to have a fever.

Fever can take a person's life even in modern times with advanced medicine. Even though Wu has thought of many ways to help Huanchuan reduce his fever, fever is a very dangerous thing in this world, so Ye is so worried about him.

Fortunately, he was in a coma for three days and finally woke up.

Ye sat behind Wu and looked at Huanchuan who was sitting on the straw mat. A beam of sunlight shone through the gap at the door of the tent, making the already white Huanchuan look even whiter. His long eyelashes trembled twice, hiding all his emotions.

"If you are okay, go back to the big tent first. Langfu and the others are very worried about you." Wu saw that he was absent-minded, so he let him leave for the time being.

Huan Chuan smiled at Ye and Wu, then stood up and left the tent.

He hadn't eaten for three days and was very hungry, but he wanted to sort out his feelings. Instead of going back to the big tent, he walked around it and headed towards the hillside behind the tent. No one came here, so he could be alone to think.

Sitting on the hillside, watching the people in the whole village having fun, even though they look no different from him, this is not his world. There is no family, no friends, and no home for him here.

Huan Chuan sighed deeply, curled up and hugged his knees, tears silently slid down his face, he cried silently, accompanied by the rustling sound of the grass in the gentle wind, loneliness overwhelmed him.

He didn't notice that Ye was following him from a distance. He heard Huan Chuan constantly muttering about his father and mother when he was unconscious. In his impression, the little orc loved to laugh. They talked to him a lot, but he never mentioned his family.

If he had been with his family, he might not have encountered those stray orcs, he wouldn't have been scared and fallen ill, and he wouldn't have sat here crying alone.

In fact, it was only when Huanchuan was abandoned by the orcs that he realized that he was helpless here, and that it was a place where the strong preyed on the weak. The wolf people were afraid of him, a stranger who suddenly appeared.

He just wanted to go home now, no matter what, he wanted to go home.

He sat there motionless until his emotions gradually calmed down, then he suddenly asked the system: "Why didn't you help me control my emotions just now?"

The system fell into an unprecedented silence and said nothing.

However, Huan Chuan did not intend to wait for his answer: "Because my desire to go home will not affect the mission, but will also urge me to leave the wolf tribe and work hard to complete the mission, right?"
