Chapter 19, Broken Arm

The Xiuli family and the clan leader all gathered in the witch doctor's cave, and Ji Nuan lay quietly in the cave.

Xiu Yan sat with his long legs crossed on an animal skin spread at the entrance of the cave while the witch doctor's mother treated the wound. Except for the sound of the witch doctor's mother treating the wound and the breathing of the animals, the cave was extremely quiet.

The atmosphere was unusually heavy, and Ji Nuan couldn't help but feel it.

Today's incident is all her fault. When she saw the durian, she forgot about it and had no vigilance at all. If it weren't for Xiu Yan, I'm afraid she wouldn't be lying down as intact as she is now.

And looking at the heavy expressions of the beasts, Xiu Yan's injury is probably very serious. Thinking of the backward living standards and medical conditions here, and the thought that an unfamiliar orc would suffer huge harm because of him, Ji Nuan felt as if

Being held tightly by something, I felt sad and guilty at the same time, and it was extremely uncomfortable.

"Witch doctor, how is Xiu Yan's injury? Is it possible..." Ge Xing squatted down with some anxiety, asking cautiously and with a bit of sadness.

The witch doctor applied the pounded herbs to the wounds that Xiu Yan had cleaned and wrapped them with animal skins.

Seeing the worry in Jishou's eyes, he finally sighed deeply: "Xiuyan bastard's arm is broken!"

"What! Xiu Yan's hand is broken, so isn't he a useless beast?" When Manli heard her friend say that Xiu Yan was injured, she rushed to the witch doctor's cave regardless of the orcs guarding her. She never expected to hear the news.

Until Xiu Yan's arm was broken.

With a broken arm, isn't it like those disabled orcs in the tribe, who can only collect some wild fruits, grind some stone tools, and get a little food every day that is not enough to satisfy themselves? What is the use of such a companion?

Do you still have to share the food yourself to feed him?

When Ji Nuan heard the words "waste beast", her eyes were red with anger. She had never wished so much that she could stand up and give this hateful female a slap in the face.

Gerou looked at Manli, who had a disappointed look on her face, with red eyes. She grabbed her animal skin skirt tightly with both hands to control herself from rushing forward.

"Manli, my Xiuyan cub won't be able to hunt in the future. Let's forget about the two of you getting married!" I was worried that Manli would make a big fuss before, but now that something like this has happened to the Xiuyan cub, I'm afraid Manli is...

I wish there was no such thing as getting married.

Sure enough, a touch of joy flashed in Manli's eyes when she heard this, and she pretended to be sad and wiped away the non-existent tears: "Well, since Aunt Rou and Brother Xiuyan don't want to get married, then I won't force it.

Well, I'm still accepting punishment, so I'll go back first."

After saying that, he turned around and left without any hesitation, as fast as if there was some terrible beast chasing him behind him.

Watching Manli leave, Gerou's mood finally collapsed. She threw herself next to Xiu Yan and hugged his uninjured arm, crying loudly. Tears flowed down her cheeks and wetted the animal skin beneath her.

Gerou's tears fell on her arms, Xiu Yan's eyelashes trembled, and he pursed his thin lips: "Mom, don't cry. I still have sharp teeth, so I won't starve."

Xiu Yan is just 35 years old this year and is already an adult male. The cave where he lives alone has been dug a long time ago, and he has been moving things into it one after another in the past few days.
