Chapter 1124 - Licked the Hornets’ Nest (3) (2/2)

Bai Qingqing said, “It’s not your fault. Accidents are inevitable.”

Muir looked at her with gratitude, and, at the same time, he felt increasingly guilty. He had failed to take good care of them.

After this incident, Muir understood how frail females and children were. He should have checked out the location first and eliminated or averted the sources of danger when they first arrived. This wouldn’t have happened then.

When Parker brought Bai Qingqing over back then, that was what he did. These were fine details that beastmen would only learn after they become mates with females.

Buzzing sounds rang out from above them, and all of them looked up. Turned out that it was Curtis wearing a coat of bees and dragging along a group of them like a black fog, coming down toward them.

Afraid that the bees would discover the group below him, Curtis came to a stop.

Muir immediately said, “Let’s go back first.”

Bai Qingqing looked worriedly at the black group above him and agreed to Muir’s decision.

Curtis only climbed down the tree after they had left. He used a few big leaves and wrapped up the bees, then dove into the nearest river.

No matter how relentless the bees were, they couldn’t chase into the water. They let the invaders escape just like that.

Muir’s group had just arrived at home when Curtis came back while using a big piece of tree leaf to wrap up the beehive, carrying it above him like an umbrella.

Bai Qingqing turned to look at him. After seeing that he was unscathed, she heaved a sigh of relief and said, “It’s great that you are fine. Hmm? What are you holding?”

The leopard cubs, laying on the ground like corpses, didn’t move when they heard this. However, their eyes turned curiously toward Curtis and their noses twitched. Then, all of them jumped up energetically.

Howl howl howl!

Bai Qingqing was stunned by this stark change and immediately understood the thing that was wrapped up in the leaf. Her eyes lit up as well.
