Jungle Throne

a month ago.

"Amu hasn't come back yet?"

The simple door panel was removed, and dust rose up in the empty tree house. The dried meat brought by Meng Luo a few days ago was still lying alone on the ground, and everything remained the same as before.

From the day when the beast horde came early, Amu didn't know where he went, and there was no sign of being broken into the tree house.Maybe it's because Amu knows medical skills, not only saved the wandering orcs in the past, but also healed the nearby tribes, so even if the owner is not here, no one wants to occupy this place.

Amu is the female wandering orc who saved Gao Zhige, and she has been living alone in this natural tree house for a long time.It is said to be a tree house, but in fact it is nothing more than hollowing out a section of a century-old tree.The tree house is more than ten meters high from the ground. Gao Zhige has been wondering why Amudu still lives in such a high place when he is so old. Isn't he tired of climbing up and down every day?But when she saw that the other party climbed to the tree house at a speed that was more flexible than Meng Luo, she silently stopped talking.

Amu is just Gao Zhige's name for her, but her name is just Mu.Regardless of the fire season or the ice season, Mu is covered under a wide animal skin all day long, covering his body and face tightly.Gao Zhige once suspected that the other party's animal form might be a monkey, not only because the other party has never revealed her animal form, and has always maintained a human form, but also the other party's ability to climb trees is really good, saying that monkeys may not have her Climb cleanly.

When giant beasts began to appear on the outskirts of the forest, Gao Zhige was worried about the other party's safety.After all, Mu lives alone, and there is no one around to help him, and he is so old.Meng Luo said that Mu survived by seeing a doctor and trading with nearby tribes and wandering orcs in the past, but at this moment when everyone is in danger, everyone hides and dare not come out, for fear of becoming food for giant beasts , Moreover, now they don't have any extra food to trade, right?

Gao Zhige was worried, so she asked Meng Luo to bring some food to the other party. Anyway, she didn't eat much herself, and Meng Luo was a hardworking person, so they stocked up a lot of food, so it doesn't matter if you share a little.It's not that Gao Zhige hasn't considered whether to take Mu over, but she and the little black panther are already two burdens in the family. If there is one more... um... That's right, she just loves her Ah Luo, and she doesn't want him to be too tired .

However, it seems that since the appearance of the beast horde, Amu left the small tree house where she has been staying, and went somewhere. The dried meat covered with ants lying quietly on the ground for a few days is the evidence.

Gao Zhige stared at the densely packed ants on the jerky, and suddenly shook his body violently, countless goose bumps stood up on his body instantly.With a blank expression, she hurriedly asked Meng Luo to throw the jerky outside.

"Maybe Amu has already left here." Gao Zhige thought to himself, and then left the tree house with Meng Luo.

Time turns to the present.

As soon as Meng Luo came back, before she had time to happily ask Gao Zhige out, she was like Bai Yue who was imprisoned, and was told by Gao Zhige that she could not go anywhere these days.

"I'm not allowed to run around anywhere in the past few days. I have something to ask them to go out these few days. But after they went out, they were locked up again because of Bai Yue. Apart from Bai Ri and another wolf orc There are only two minor orcs in their twenties. So I hope you can stay and help watch in case any sword beasts come to harass you."

"Is there something that they have to go for?" Meng Luo said depressedly, "Can't you leave it to me? I can help you!"

"Because there are so many of them." Gao Zhige replied, "I asked them to help me find some herbs. Now that autumn... the fallen leaves are almost half over, the morning and night are cold, some people in the tribe are weak, I have to boil some medicine Just in case."

"...And, this morning you..."

"Sorry, I was wrong!"

When Gao mentioned this matter, Meng Luo spoke faster than her brain, and before the other party finished speaking, she admitted her mistake very sincerely without hesitation.She raised her eyes secretly, seeing that Gao didn't speak, and couldn't figure out the other person's expression, so she asked cautiously, with a pleading and discussing tone:

"Gao, can you... stop crying?" After a pause, he continued, "If you cry, I will feel really bad."

"I didn't cry..." Gao Zhige blushed slightly, whispered, refusing to recall the incident.

"But I saw you... Mmmmm!" The upright lion's mouth almost said it quickly, but Gao Zhige quickly covered her mouth and gave her a glare.

Gao Zhige let go of Meng Luo, looking at the other person sitting obediently, his eyes were full of himself.She didn't dare to look directly into those clear eyes anymore, she turned her head slightly, and her eyes moved down.

"Then why are you unhappy these days?"

"...In short, you are not allowed to mention that matter again. And...it was not your fault, so you don't need to apologize to me anymore. "

"I'm just, a little homesick."

"..."

Meng Luo looked at the person who was suddenly exuding loneliness, and was a little at a loss.At that moment, she felt as if she saw herself a few years ago.There is no tribe, no mother, and only myself is left. With the confusion of tomorrow, in this seemingly abandoned forest, I have gone through seasons of ice and fire alone, not knowing where I should go.Where to go today, where to go tomorrow.

Until one day, she picked up the female in front of her.The muddled, dream-like life was suddenly broken, and she realized that she had been alone for five full years.

"Haha, it's all over, and I'm used to it, so don't show that expression, it feels like you're more sad than me, obviously I'm the one who should be sad..."

"But I'm just sad!"

After Gao Zhige finished saying "homesick", the atmosphere suddenly became silent. She didn't speak, and the other party was also silent.She was just about to say hello, trying to ease the awkward atmosphere and change the subject, but the other party suddenly leaned over and hugged her tightly.Gao Zhige's face showed some astonishment, he moved his lips, but in the end he didn't say anything, only silence remained.

"In the future, with me to accompany you, you will not be alone, you still have me. If you miss home, I will give you a home. So, don't be sad anymore."

Gao Zhige had a sore nose and twitched, and finally couldn't help but buried himself in the other's neck and cried out.Does the lion really know what he's talking about?Didn't do anything, and wanted to give me a home...I didn't promise anything...

The two hugged each other tightly like that, and after an unknown amount of time, the tears had dried up. If there hadn't been a sudden and rapid wolf howl, maybe the two of them could have hugged each other forever.

However, no if.

"It's not good! It's a sword beast!"

As soon as Bai Yue heard her elder brother Bai Ri's voice, she ran out quickly and yelled anxiously, regardless of the fact that she was still in confinement.

"Hurry up and hide in the cave! Don't come out!"

While speaking, a sword beast jumped out and appeared in everyone's field of vision.Immediately afterwards, one, two... a total of nine sword beasts surrounded the entire tribe.

"Why... why did you choose this time?" Gao Zhige's face turned pale at the thought of howling at them to help him gather medicine, and he immediately felt that he had harmed the entire tribe.If I hadn't asked them to,

"High! Follow them in and hide!"

Meng Luo hurriedly pushed her away and called her to go. Seeing her standing there as if she was completely motionless, she thought that the other party was frightened, so she quickly picked her up and sent her to the nearest cave.

Every cave in the tribe has another underground cave.But the opening of the cave is only one meter wide, and it can only accommodate a thin body like a non-orc to pass through.The underground caves extend in all directions and are full of food and water, so don't worry about what will happen if you get stuck inside.

Meng Luo and the three wolf orcs defended cautiously, desperately preventing the sword beast from approaching. If a sword beast breaks through the defense and rushes in, those clansmen who have not had time to hide in the underground cave will be hurt.

But there were only four of them, and the sword beasts cleverly left only a few to deal with them, while the rest took the opportunity to rush over.The combat strength of a single wolf orc is comparable to that of a sword beast, but when there are multiple sword beasts, they can only passively defend.Despite this, they still tried their best to hold the four heads.

But Meng Luo was caught in a bitter battle, and there were four sword beasts surrounding her.Those sword beasts are very smart, they have been stalking her, never confronting her head-on, only frequently attacking her from behind, like harassing flies.Although Meng Luo dodged in the end and couldn't hurt her, he successfully held her back and made her unable to get away for a while.

The last unstopped sword beast rushed over, and the two underage orcs in their twenties stepped forward and blocked the entrance of the cave. Although they were knocked away by the sword beast at once, they still fought to the end. A tribe also entered the underground cave.But they were not so lucky. The sword beast saw that all the people in the cave had run away, leaving only these two wolves. The next second, it switched its attack target to them and stepped on one of them.

At the critical moment, a stone suddenly hit the corner of the sword beast's eye, and then two more stones flew over and hit the same position.This move completely angered it and diverted its attention.It looked left and right, trying to see who was hitting it with stones, and then found Gao Zhige holding a slingshot, and roared at her, but the foot that stepped on the wolf orc still didn't move away.

Gao Zhige picked up the stones at his feet and aimed again with the slingshot. With a few "swish", more stones hit the past.Although these stones can't do any harm to it, it hurts.She didn't believe that the other party would stand obediently as a target for her to hit.

"Roar--"

The sword beast finally couldn't bear it during Gao Zhige's "serial beating", let go of the wolf orc that was under its feet, and rushed towards her with a low growl.The sword beast was so fast that it almost rushed to her in the next breath, opening its mouth full of fangs to bite down.

Gao Zhige only had time to dodge to the side, but was still bitten by the skirt of his shirt.Clothes made of animal skin are very tough and not easy to tear. When the sword beast pulled hard, Gao Zhige was pulled back by a strong force and fell to the ground.

The sword beast bit down on her again.At such a close distance, right in front of her eyes, Gao Zhige could smell the smell from the other party's mouth, could she still escape?

The answer is yes, the two underage wolf orcs chased after them, and the two brothers hugged the two legs of the sword beast one by one, struggling to hug them.

The sword beast instantly lost its center of gravity, and fell headfirst into Gao Zhige's eyes.

"My lord priest, run!" The two children tightly hugged the sword beast's feet, preventing it from getting up.

Gao Zhige's heart was beating fast, she swallowed subconsciously, and when she moved her hand, she touched something cold behind her; when she touched it up, it was a stone with a smooth surface - that was when the Li tribesmen usually polished stone knives, stone axes and other things Big stones used.

It took her a lot of effort to pick up the stone that was almost as heavy as herself, and threw it towards the sword beast's head.

The two wolf orc brothers: "..."

Even though the sword beast's head is blooming, it is still not completely dead, and its body is still struggling, but its strength is getting weaker and weaker.However, just as they breathed a sigh of relief, Gao Zhige saw the two wolf orcs in front of her showing guarded expressions. The next second, her back of her neck hurt, and before she fell unconscious, she could only vaguely see two figures flying upside down. Then he lost consciousness.

The author has something to say: To be honest, yesterday’s increase in collections really scared me. Before, there were more than a dozen collections, but when I woke up, there were almost a hundred collections... I still know that I wrote it There are a few catties and taels of stuff, but I would like to thank a kind little angel for recommending this article on Weibo, and everyone’s affirmation of this article... Hey, I don’t know what to say, anyway I won’t cheat, just thinking that this article will become one of the few orc articles in Jinjiang Baihe after the end, I can’t bear to cheat.

In addition, the forest chapter ends here.

Also, I'm going to save my manuscripts, and plan to enter v next week, so there will be fewer updates this week.
