I've been transported to the orc continent.

Chapter 321 Treatment

The arrow in Yue's hand flew out like a meteor and pierced the belly of a wild beast.

The beast swayed twice, but did not fall down immediately. Instead, it continued to run forward, but its speed visibly slowed down, and it was soon caught up by the orcs.

The orcs transformed into their beast forms, using their teeth and claws as weapons. The orcs swarmed forward, and the wounded beasts quickly collapsed and lay motionless.

The crisis with the strange orcs was completely resolved. Yue put down her bow and arrow and sat on Bai Ling's lap. At this moment, Bai Ling also let out a "woof woof" sound.

The lion's roar was filled with pride and joy. Its lover was truly formidable; from such a distance, the first arrow struck the buffalo's neck. Three arrows, three buffaloes—not a single arrow missed its mark.

Even in his previous life, there were very few people with this skill; he could truly be called a master archer.

Bai Ling carried Yue down the earthen slope. A fox was tending to an injured leopard. When it saw Bai Ling coming, both the fox and the leopard called out to Bai Ling and Yue. The fox-human even came over and lowered its head to Yue.

This is an expression of gratitude.

Yue jumped off Bai Ling's back and asked, "Its leg is injured, does it need my help?"

The fox shook its head, pointed in a direction with one paw, and then called out twice.

Yue asked again, "Your people went to get the medicine, they'll be back soon?"

The fox nodded again, and the leopard also stood up unsteadily and bowed its head to the moon.

Yue quickly said, "You're injured, you should lie down right away."

The leopard lay down on the ground again. Bai Ling called out to the moon, then picked up the basket and walked to the grass not far away, transforming into human form.

Before the fox and leopard's tribesmen arrived, the elder and his group came first. Seeing that some orcs were injured, they all gathered around. Zhao, being the doctor, went closer and stood beside the leopard, carefully examining its wounds.

Yue said from the side, "Zhao is our tribe's doctor, let him take a look at you."

The fox had already transformed into human form, and he bowed slightly, saying, "Then I'll trouble you."

It's inevitable for orcs to get injured while hunting. They can treat minor wounds themselves, but for serious injuries, they have to return to the tribe for treatment. So, the most common injuries they get treated are external wounds.

The leopard had already transformed into human form. On the calf of his right leg, there was a fist-sized wound. The flesh was turned inside out, and you could almost see the bone underneath. Blood was still flowing out of the wound, staining his right foot red.

Upon closer inspection, the orc's wound had relatively smooth edges and no missing flesh, so it didn't look like it had been bitten by a wild animal. Instead, it looked like it had been stabbed hard by some sharp weapon.

Bai Ling also saw the orc's wound. He thought of the bison-like animal and realized that the wound was most likely caused by the bison's horn.

This leopard was lucky; the bull's horn only pierced its leg. If it had pierced its stomach, it might have punctured its internal organs, and even the Beast God wouldn't have been able to save its life.

The wound looks horrific, but it didn't hit any vital organs; otherwise, the leopard wouldn't have been able to run so fast and so far after being injured.

Zhao's partner took out the water pouch they had brought, and Zhao washed his hands with soap before starting to treat the leopard-man's wounds.

This is something Zhao learned from Bai Ling. Every time he examines a patient, he must wash his hands thoroughly. Now, in the wild, there are no such conditions. When treating such external injuries in the tribe, Zhao washes his hands with soap and then washes them again in alcohol.

He used two fingers to pry open the leopard's wounds and examined them, then said, "I'm going to clean the wounds with wine later. It will hurt a bit. Go find a stick and have him bite it."

Yue drew the long sword from her back: "I'll go."

The fox-orc nodded and said, "Then I'll have to trouble you."

With a stick in its mouth, the leopard said, "There's some dirt in your wound. I need to clean it out for you. I also need to cut away some of the skin and flesh around the wound so it can heal better."

The leopard nodded, and the fox-beastman said from the side, "Doctor, we trust you. Just treat him."

Zhao began to clean the dirt from the wound with tweezers. Just as Zhao was about to remove the dirt from the wound, the leopard's tribe returned.

A gray fox sat atop a leopard, clutching a basket tightly to its chest. Before they even reached each other, they both howled.

The fox-orc on this side also let out a shrill cry. Before his cry had even faded, the leopard and the gray fox were already in front of him. Before the leopard had even stopped, the gray fox jumped off the leopard's back, grabbed its basket, and ran to the fox-orc, squeaking.

The fox-orc said, "This person is a doctor; he's treating Er's wound."

The gray fox and the leopard remained silent. They found a place and transformed into human form. Before the fox-beastman could ask any questions, he revealed the identities of Bai Ling and his group.

"The one with silver hair is the orc who killed the three big-eyed beasts with a bow and arrow. The older orc is their leader, and the one treating the ear is the doctor."

Unlike Er, this fox-orc had seen bows and arrows before. This year, the caravan from the central tribe had bows and arrows and even gave them a demonstration of archery.

The central tribe did not stay in their own tribe, but instead stopped to trade with the largest nearby tribe. Er stayed in his tribe this year and did not participate in the trade, so he did not recognize the bow and arrow.

The two orcs didn't ask anything more. They stood at a distance and watched the doctor named Zhao treat Er's wound.

The doctor was looking for something in the ear wound with a small iron tool. Then he took out another iron tool and cut off the skin and flesh from the ear wound. Then they heard the doctor say, "I'm going to wash the wound with wine. This will hurt a lot. A few of you, transform into animal forms and hold it down so it doesn't move."

The wine was specially prepared for him by Bai Ling; it was much stronger than regular wine. This wine was not for drinking; it could only be used to treat wounds.

When treating members of the tribe in the tribe, even the bravest orc will scream in pain if the wound comes into contact with alcohol. Therefore, it is essential to hold down the injured orc during treatment.

Upon hearing this, Er's people quickly stepped forward and held down his body, while Bai Ling and Chen held down Er's other leg.

He scooped up a spoonful of wine with a wooden spoon and poured it onto the wound.

The ear immediately started moving. When the doctor told it not to move around, it had already decided in its mind that no matter how much it hurt, it would not move. But when the doctor splashed the wine on its wound, the excruciating pain made it instinctively struggle.
