Chapter 118 Not one person
The high priest was not surprised that the leopard cub came at night.
No matter which orc suddenly regains his health, he will definitely come to him to ask whether he can be safe in the long run.
He was just surprised that this guy could endure for so many days. He thought that the boy, who had just reached adulthood, was young and energetic and would be impatient.
"priest."
"Come on, sit down." The high priest made room for him.
The high priest does not necessarily need to sleep at night. He sometimes reads the tribe's scrolls, sometimes carves what happened today on stone slabs, and sometimes grinds medicine, so coming at night is not a disturbance.
The high priest who doesn't sleep will make up for his sleep when he has nothing to do. I don't know how this kind of fragmented rest can support his stable spirit every day.
Yuchuan walked to the fire and sat down. There were some strange things scattered around, including beans, sprouted beans, and strange beans...
"What is this?" he asked, pointing at the strange bean.
The priest took a look and smiled: "I wanted to roast it so that I wouldn't get tired chewing it, but I forgot about it when I was working, and it's already burnt."
The burnt beans were of no use and he kicked them into the fire.
Yuchuan was not interested in the sprouted beans. He picked them up and sniffed them, only to find that they were not poisonous.
"Do you feel okay recently?" The priest knew the purpose of his visit and introduced the topic, "Use it more often in normal times so that you won't be inflexible when hunting."
Yuchuan is different from others. Using the beast form is an innate ability of males. He has been able to use it since he could run. He only started using it when he reached adulthood, so of course he is a little clumsy than others.
He also didn't think that he would ever be able to fully recover, because for a cub, encountering a terrifying beast and witnessing his parents die to protect other cubs was too cruel.
"I...why is this happening?" Yukawa asked puzzledly.
In fact, what Yuchuan wanted to know was very simple, why he lost his beast form and now suddenly recovered it, and how his parents left.
After looking at him for a long time, the high priest answered him: "Your parents left for the tribe, and you were still young at the time and were frightened, so you forgot."
"Then why did I become an ominous orc?" Yuchuan was very confused. He didn't know why this happened.
If his father and mother were trying to help the tribe return to the embrace of the Beast God, why did the people in the tribe treat him like this?
He remembered that when he was young, he wanted to join some cub teams, but was ruthlessly rejected. When he grew up and wanted to help the tribe do something, they all said that they didn't need his help, but other cubs could do it.
When the tribe gathered, his presence made everyone uncomfortable, and when he wanted to do something, everyone said he didn't need to do it.
He didn't know what he had done wrong, he just knew that his presence made everyone uncomfortable.
The leopard cub looked very depressed, and he didn't understand why.
The priest's tone was full of comfort and compassion. He said, "Actually, it's not true. Have you forgotten that when you were a child, everyone took you hunting."
At that time, Yuchuan was very young and had no beast form. When he went hunting, he was taught by the young beastmen at that time. They taught him carefully and strictly, so Yuchuan's basic skills were more solid than other cubs.
Later, some of the young beastmen died, and some became disabled. The cubs who had been protected by his parents began to protect him. Unfortunately, they had limited abilities and bad luck, and in the end only Nanshan was left.
The priest was also very sad. It was difficult for orcs to give birth. Batch after batch of lively faces passed away, and not many cubs could survive and grow up healthy.
The tribal heritage is passed down from mouth to mouth by the elders of the tribe. It is true that the ominous orcs will bring misfortune to the tribe, but who can tell whether it will be a disaster or not? As long as everyone works hard and unites, there is nothing that cannot be overcome. Therefore, he and the patriarch and elders also work hard to maintain peace for everyone.
Human power is limited, and human cognition is also limited.
Favoritism is a knife, and so is guilt.
He was sensitive, worried, and physically disabled. Pure love would only make him die quickly. As for the malice, they never tolerated it, but they still felt sorry for him in the end.
People's emotions are complicated, and it is difficult for everyone to take everything into consideration, but fortunately, it is all over now. He doesn't need to look at anyone's face, nor does he need to take a medical exam. Everyone will live well, and Lu Xiaoxiao has firmly chosen him.
He is lucky because he is still young and has a lot of future ahead of him.
Yuchuan's expression was a little stunned.
The feeling now was so complicated that he really wanted to "go crazy" like Xiaoxiao said. That's right, he even forgot to say hello and went to his own "little dark room", where he twisted and crawled and howled in the darkness.
This time, he still had a little rationality in his mind. He was afraid that Lu Xiaoxiao would worry about him, so he didn't pull out his hair or do anything self-injurious. After venting his anger, he slipped back home, jumped onto the bed, and hugged Lu Xiaoxiao tightly in his arms.
His warm and cozy partner had already left him alone and fallen asleep, so he didn't even notice his return.
He held her quietly, listening to her peaceful heartbeat and long breathing. He felt that holding her was not enough, so he turned into a big leopard and held her tightly in his arms. Only then did he feel safe.
He was never alone.
Oh no, a beast.
