“That’s the only thing we can do for now.” Bai Qingqing sat down next to Curtis. Leaning against him, she said, “If the village isn’t too bad, let’s settle down there.”
Curtis neither agreed nor disagreed. He held up her arm and saw that scabs had formed on the four bloody wounds and had turned into a blackish-red color.
“It’s not completely healed.” A hint of frustration was heard in Curtis’s voice as he flicked out his tongue to graze the bloody scabs.
“My injury is quite minor.” Bai Qingqing then looked at Parker’s waist, only to see that the scabs had fallen off, leaving only a pink scar.
“Bluepool, how are you feeling?” Bai Qingqing turned her gaze towards Bluepool in the water.
With his upper body sprawled face-down on the shore, Bluepool slapped his tail in the water, forming large patches of ripples. “I’ll be fine so long as there’s water.”
Bai Qingqing smiled and said wistfully, “I’m afraid this won’t do. We’d better hurry up and find a village. We can’t very well keep walking along the river.”
Bluepool’s countenance instantly changed. He gazed at the ground and felt like he should just drown in this small lake.
“Since there’s water on the ground, once you dry up, just roll around in the mud.”
Bai Qingqing said jokingly. She didn’t expect Bluepool to ponder over her words for a moment, then nod his head in agreement. “I’ll give it a try later.”
She was rendered speechless.
Bai Qingqing quickly finished up the rest of her meal, and, after filling up her tummy and that of her little cubs, she walked into the stone cave to call the female.
“Come out, we’ll send you somewhere safe.”
The female’s curled up body slightly quivered. After a while, she raised her head and gazed at Bai Qingqing, the glow of hope sparkling in her tiny eyes.
“What’s your name? What tribe do you belong to?” Bai Qingqing asked.
The female didn’t answer her for a good while.
As Curtis—standing at the entrance—had already gotten impatient, Bai Qingqing called Parker over to carry her.
The female shrieked and put up a violent resistance for a good while before she slowly quieted down.
