Chapter 519 Finale (4)
Inside the City of Ten Thousand Beasts, Hu Kuo and Tu Lin were inspecting crops in the planting area. Tu Lin touched the thriving corn leaves, his eyes full of delight, "By October, this corn will be ready to grow."
He patted the corn stalk like a treasure, "I'll make that roasted corn that Bai Yan has been talking about all along."
Hu Kuo smiled and replied, "I'll make some for the little ones in the tribe too."
At this moment, Tu Lin suddenly straightened up, looked up and gazed at the south, his eyes full of worry, "I wonder how Bai Yan and the others are doing."
They left at the beginning of January, and three months have passed since then. Apart from the initial correspondence, the City of Beasts has not received any more letters from them.
Tu Lin hesitated for a moment, then stammered, "Do you think something might have happened...?"
Before he could finish speaking, he slapped his mouth in frustration, "What am I saying? With so many soldiers like us, how could anything happen to us?"
Hu Kuo watched as Tu Lin muttered to himself, and sighed, "Take it easy for now. No news is good news."
“We are patrolling every day now, and everything is normal in the north. There are no traces of strange orcs coming and going, which is enough to show that the situation in the south is still under Bai Yan’s control.”
Hearing him say that, Tu Lin nodded, but the worry in her eyes did not lessen at all. Children who have left home are always especially missed.
Tu Lin and Hu Kuo were unaware that the Beast City's team was already on their way back. Lang Cang had deliberately not sent them a message; otherwise, if the elders in the city had known about Lin Baiyan's current situation, they would have definitely led their people to chase after him.
But Lin Baiyan is currently unconscious, so even if they knew, it wouldn't help. They could only worry along with her and try to delay as long as possible.
The two left the planting area and returned to the city. It was just as the cubs were getting out of school. From afar, Hu Kuo and Tu Lin saw a group of furry little cubs huddled together in the central square, their heads stuck tightly together, doing something they couldn't tell what.
When Hu Kuo and Tu Lin saw their appearance, their hearts skipped a beat, especially when they spotted a few familiar figures among the cubs. The two elders exchanged a glance and realized something was wrong, so they hurriedly ran over.
Rabbit Forest quietly stood behind the cubs, wanting to hear what they were plotting.
"Why hasn't High Priest Brother come back yet?" Little Tiger Leap's round eyes were full of worry. "Why have they been gone for so long since they went out to fight the bad guys?"
Three months!
Under the teacher's "encouragement," the little cub has now learned to do arithmetic. Three months is one hundred days!
"Idiot, they must have been captured by bad guys!" Wolfwood gave Tiger Leap a hard flick on the forehead.
"You said the same thing last time, and then we got caught by Brother Yun and made to do handwriting as punishment!" Hu Yue cried out in pain, touching his forehead which had been hit red, and looked at Lang Mu with resentment.
Last time, when the High Priest and the City Lord went out to trade at the market, Wolfwood urged them to run away, but Wolfcloud caught them and punished them severely. If the High Priest hadn't returned just then, they would have suffered even more.
Wolfwood had initially thought of the previous misunderstanding and looked a little guilty, but then he became confident and assertive, "This time is different from that time. This time they really went out to fight!"
"What if we lose to that bad guy and get detained and can't get back?!"
Wolfwood stood in the middle of a group of cubs, looked around, and said, "Think about it, our High Priest brother hasn't sent a message back in ages!"
The elders would always have a relaxed smile on their faces when they received the letter, but these past two days, Grandpa Tulin and Grandpa Hukuo have been looking worried. Who knows if something happened to the High Priest brother outside?
When the cubs around heard Wolfwood say this, they scratched their little heads. What Wolfwood said seemed to make sense. The elders had indeed been absent-minded these past two days.
At this moment, Little Lynx rested its two little hands on its fair cheeks, its eyes drooping in a dejected manner, "But we are just little cubs, we can't help High Priest Brother at all."
Just as Wolfwood was about to say something, Little Lynx raised its eyelids and said, "Brother Wolfwood, I advise you not to even think about leading us out of the tribe anymore."
He pointed his chubby little finger at the soldiers patrolling the street, "These past few days, the city's defenses have become even more stringent. With our current combat strength, we simply have no way to avoid the well-trained patrols."
Little Lynx shook his head, looking mature for his age, and said, "Moreover, as far as I know, Brother Wolf Cloud is on duty today. If we get caught, you will definitely be sent to Brother Wolf Cloud's hands. Getting a beating will be the least of your worries."
Wolfwood glared at Lynx, who wasn't taking the bait at all, with a look of exasperation. He forced a smile and said, "What are you saying? I'm not afraid of Brother Yun! I just respect him!"
"Oh? Is that so?" At this moment, a clear, youthful voice came from behind a group of cubs.
Upon hearing that voice, Langmu's small body froze instantly. He stiffly and slowly turned his head and saw, as expected, a young warrior dressed in armor, holding a long spear, already showing signs of prowess.
Since entering the training camp, the young Wolf Cloud has made rapid progress and is now able to participate in patrol missions with the patrol team.
He spotted Wolfwood from afar, sticking out his rear end and trying to entice the cubs. As he approached and listened, he realized Wolfwood was indeed itching for a beating again.
Although his intentions were good, his actions were still unforgivable. However, he was somewhat relieved that the other cubs were much more well-behaved this time.
