Tiger Tribe III"Ah Yu," the shapes.h.i.+fters beating up Mu stopped, dumbfounded.
"Little Ah Yu, you don’t have to cover up for him," the tribe leader smile with difficulty, "To harm the precious females has always been a big sin -"
"Uncle tribe leader, I’m not lying!" Jiang Yu, who couldn’t stand it, interrupted him, barely maintaining his polite tone.
In the blink of an eye, some of the adults’ face became unsightly.
In particular, Mu"s father’s face immediately turned green and purple, as if he had been fiercely slapped in the face. He clenched the hand that he had hit Mu with, trembling imperceptibly.
He seemed to feel the ridiculing eye of others.
He was furious when he learned what Mu had done and felt that he had been deeply humiliated.
Without any thought, he dragged Mu toward him and hit him fiercely.
Even if Mu was not related to the incident of harming a female by even a thread, and even if the chimera tribe had the nature of protecting the young, if Mu hurt the female it would be great because he would be adhering to tribal rules by punis.h.i.+ng him. The people would not blame him. But Mu was unjustly accused!
If he were to beat his own brat to death without understanding the truth of the case, he would be criticized by all.
Bo"s face was burning red. He was too angry to speak, and his face as if someone had clawed away the top layer of his skin!
When he thought of the tribal people"s impression of him, Bo became angry. He felt it was all Mu’s fault, so the eyes that looked at Mu became even more malicious.
"... Ah Yu," the tribe leader paused for a moment, his face stiff. "Did you mean that this was not Mu’s fault?"
Jiang Yu nodded.
The entire training ground became silent.
Covered with blood, Mu raised his head, and incredulously stared at Jiang Yu.
----
The tribe’s case of the good-for-nothing chimera who intended to kill the female ultimately ended with nothing definite.
Everyone deliberately did not apologize to Mu. Most of them dispersed, while the battered Mu was simply left where he was lying.
Jiang Yu sighed, extremely worried about the current situation.
If Mu’s life is in this kind of a state, it is impossible for him not to turn to the dark side.
Silently watching the awkward child struggle, Jiang Yu’s heart felt sour. He changed his thinking, I am afraid I’m desperate.
"Ah Yu?" Ya Qi pulled Jiang Yu"s arm.
Jiang Yu looked over his shoulder at him and saw his conflicted expression. Suddenly he asked, "Do you want to help Mu?"
Ya Qi’s face was wide-eyed and timid. "What about you, do you agree?"
Jiang Yu smiled, "Why would I disagree? Let"s go together."
Ya Qi suddenly smiled.
Ya Qi was actually really worried about Jiang Yu’s response. Although he really wanted to help Mu, Ah Yu has always hated this little chimera, so he did not dare to make the first move.
That Ah Yu was willing to save Mu already surprised Ya Qi. Although he felt somewhat perplexed, he did not think too deeply about it, and simply was very happy. Now that Ah Yu actually agreed to go with him to help Mu, he felt like jumping for joy, and his whole body felt warm.
"Okay!", Aceh"s voice was full of excitement.
Jiang Yu and Ya Qi walked over to Mu, who was struggling to get up. Jiang Yu reached out his hand to him, but with a “pa” Mu slapped it away.
Even the strength of a weak shapes.h.i.+fter is more than a delicate female can match.
Jiang Yu"s hand instantly became flushed and unbearably painful. His eyes could not help but overflow with tears.
"What are you doing?!" Ya Qi immediately moved in front of Jiang Yu, his usually shy face full of anger.
"I do not want your fake kindness!" Mu spit out, his mouth speckled with bubbles of blood and his eyes murderous. He was like a childish cub who had encountered an enemy, both fierce yet fragile.
Jiang Yu screamed in his mind while gently blowing on his hand. When he saw how angry Ya Qi was, he resisted the pain in his hand and stopped him.
"I"m fine, let"s go," Jiang Yu reluctantly lifted the corners of his mouth, trying to smile brilliantly, but because of the pain he could not help but bare his teeth. As a result, Jiang Yu"s expression looked very strange.
Ya Qi looked at him, hesitant. Finally, he gave Mu his fiercest glare and led Jiang Yu away.
"Ah Yu, you all right?" Ah Yu inspected his red-hot palm, distressed and at a loss, his voice even held a trace of tears.
"It’s fine, it’s fine! The redness will disappear in a moment."
The words are very easy to say, but in reality, Jiang Yu felt like he could die from the pain. In his mind, he cursed the good-for-nothing shapes.h.i.+fter, while biting his teeth to stop himself from screaming.
Though Mu had hit his palm this hard, Jiang Yu wasn’t angry. Although his hand hurts, Mu’s reaction was better than he expected.
Considering how stubborn Ah Yu was in the past, how could Mu forg
et all his past bullying just because of a moment of mercy?
So, on the road to straightening out the villain, he still has some way to go.
Jiang Yu’s head started to ache.
However, he is currently only five years old, Mu is only seven years old, and the destruction of the tribe of Mu is still at least ten years away from now. It’s a long time, definitely enough for him to earn someone’s goodwill.
Although Jiang Yu thinks nothing of the pain in his hand, Ya Qi still insisted on visiting the hospital.
Under the surprised gaze of the tribe doctor, Jiang Yu fervently wished that he could dig a pit to bury himself in.
How embarra.s.sing, he’d left the infirmary less than an hour ago, to think that he actually already came back ......
"Who did this?", The tribe doctor looked at the tender red palm and his face paled.
"It’s because -", Ah Qi was just about to answer the doctor’s question when Jiang Yu grabbed his arm and interrupted him.
"Haha, it’s because I swung too hard when I was catching b.u.t.terflies!" Jiang Yu said, grinning, with cute, innocent eyes.
The doctor’s mouth twitched, but he did not continue questioning them.
It was only when the medicine was being applied that the doctor’s hand accidentally pressed too hard, causing Jiang Yu to scream involuntarily.
"Ah Yu, why didn’t you let me tell the truth? Mu really crossed the line this time!" Ya Qi said as they were leaving the infirmary, gingerly inspecting Jiang Yu’s bandaged hand.
"If you had told them, what do you think would happen to Mu?"
Ya Qi is still small, so he doesn’t a.n.a.lyze things deeply, always going by intuition instead.
Since Jiang Yu put it like this, Ya Qi thought carefully, and his face began to pale.
"Just now a non-existent crime almost got Mu killed. If you had mentioned him then, can you imagine how miserable they would make Mu?"
"And nothing happened anyway, so don’t worry," Jiang Yu smiled.
Ya Qi has always been very soft-hearted. In the past, he had always been bothered by how Mu was treated, but he couldn’t do anything. He had never thought about the repercussions Mu had to face before Jiang Yu brought it up, but now after carefully thinking about it, he couldn’t bear to see that happen.
However, on one hand is his best friend who has been hurt, and on the other hand is pitiful and bullied Mu.
Ya Qi’s emotions were tangled in a ball; he had no idea what to do.
Jiang Yu slapped Ya Qi’s back, G.o.d knows he wishes he could slap Ya Qi’s head, but he’s too short.
"Don’t think of such irrelevant things, just listen to what I say!
Ah Qi finally broke free from his tangled emotions, and after pondering deeply for a long time, he suddenly said, "Then in the future, you should stay far away from Mu!”
Jiang Yu could not help but laugh, he really is liking this simple little chimera more and more. "OK, no problem!"
The tribe doctor stood on the doorstep of the infirmary, looking at the two little children walk away with eyes full of affection.
----
"Ya An, Lin brought you fruit again!" The little chimera speaking was green with envy.
The chimera known as Ya An nodded haughtily, his eyes revealing a trace of pride.
"Ya An is the most beautiful chimera in the tribe. Even females can’t compare with him!"
"That is true, very true, Ya An is so beautiful, it’s no wonder he’s so popular."
They flattered him one after another.
Jiang Yu, who was pa.s.sing by, raised his eyebrows. These children were still so young, when did they learn how to flatter?
"Ah Qi, I forgot to pick a couple of medicinal herbs, give me the ones in your hand," Ya An ordered arrogantly.
"But I also just finished the task, I don’t have any extra herbs ...", Ya Qi’s voice sounded timid and unconfident.
"There is still time. After you hand it over to me, you can continue to look for some more." Ya An"s voice turned impatient. "Don’t dither, Uncle Ya Suo is about to come over!"
"I"m the next doctor, do you really want to defy me?"
Ya Suo was the doctor who treated Jiang Yu.
Ya Qi was about to say something, but someone else plucked all the herbs from his hand, holding them in front of Ya An in an ingratiating manner.
Ya nodded loftily and took the herbs.
There were a total of nine herbs in his hand. He had only asked Ya Qi for two, but now the handful of herbs were mixed with his own. He didn’t seem to want to return the extra herbs to Ya Qi at all.
Ya Qi’s face went white, but he only clenched his fist, and then dejectedly left the group, walking toward the forest.
Jiang Yu’s anger instantly soared, in a few steps he caught up with Ya Qi, who was headed for the forest, and glared at him.
Ya Qi’s mood was very blue, he’d originally intended to find more herbs, but was stopped by someone. When he looked and found out it was Ah Yu, his sadness dissipated in a beat.
"Ah Yu, you came!" he said in such a joyful tone that it was impossible to think that he had just been bullied.
