Chapter 47 When did I say I was going to kill you?

“I know them.”

 “Then do you know where they are?” The boy thought carefully and replied, “I remember seeing them hiding in the bushes over there not long ago.”

He pointed in a direction. Jiang Li looked around, seeing no Black Bear tribe members, she instructed the boy again. “You stay here, I’ll go find them, I’ll be back soon.” Seeing Jiang Li with her big belly, the boy hesitated. “You… can you really do that?” he asked. “There are quite a few Black Bear tribe members in that direction.” Jiang Li stretched her lips, revealing her neat and white eight teeth. “Don’t worry, it’ll be fine, stay here.”

 “Okay, be careful.” Jiang Li nodded, observed her surroundings again, and then ran towards the direction the boy pointed. As he said, there were indeed quite a few Black Bear tribe members. Jiang Li dodged and hid along the way, her nerves tense, afraid of being discovered. The surroundings were littered with beastmen corpses, three Black Bear tribe members were flipping through the female corpses on the ground. “Hey, did you two find her?” One of the Black Bear tribe members asked the other two. “No.” The two shook their heads.

 “Well, let’s go look somewhere else. We have to find her today.” “Yes.” After saying that, the three Black Bear tribe members turned and walked in another direction. Jiang Li, hiding behind a stone cave and eavesdropping, was full of doubts, who were they looking for? She quickly shook her head, shaking off the thought. Now was not the time to think about this, she needed to find the three little ones as soon as possible. Jiang Li peeked out, looking towards the forest in front of her. The place the little boy mentioned should be here.

She looked around, making sure there were no beastmen, then she crossed over the corpses and ran forward desperately. Just as she was about to step over the last corpse, she didn’t expect the corpse to suddenly move. A hand covered in blood grabbed her ankle. This action startled Jiang Li, who was completely unprepared, her hair stood on end, and she screamed uncontrollably.

“Ah!” She kicked wildly at her feet. The corpse groaned and then went completely silent, even its hand loosened. Looking at the five bloody finger marks on her ankle, her heart, which had been in her throat, gradually calmed down. However, her scream still startled the nearby Black Bear tribe members. A commotion and conversation came from not far away.

“Hey, did you hear a sound?” “Yes, it seems to be coming from over there.” “Let’s go take a look!” Their voices grew closer, Jiang Li was so scared that her breathing became rapid, and she even panicked. If they discovered her, she would definitely die here. Just as Jiang Li was about to escape, a big hand grabbed her wrist unexpectedly. “Hide here.” Before she could react, she was pulled behind a mound of earth and weeds by a force. “Stay here.”

 The man dropped these four words and walked out, casually stabbing a female with his long sword. His broad back was facing her, blocking the bloody scene completely. Just then, the Black Bear tribe members who had rushed over arrived. They seemed surprised when they saw the man. “Hei Duo, what happened just now?” Hei Duo pulled the long sword out of the female’s body. “You didn’t kill them all, she just woke up.” The man’s voice was low and deep.

He raised his hand and pointed at the female under him. Hiding behind, Jiang Li heard this lame excuse, she felt that these people would definitely not believe it. But to her surprise, the Black Bear tribe members actually believed it?! “Did you find anything unusual here? Did you see “that person”?” Hei Duo shook his head. “No.” Hearing this, several Black Bear tribe members showed a look of annoyance and frustration.

“Then we’ll go look again, you stay here and clean up, don’t let any escape.” Hei Duo nodded. “Yes.” Seeing them turn and leave, Jiang Li felt that now was the best time to escape. Although this man named Hei Duo saved her, he was a Black Bear tribe member after all, what if he wasn’t happy later and killed her? She turned and ran back without hesitation.

But she made too much noise, and Hei Duo heard it. Before she could run a few meters, she was grabbed by the man behind her, his hand clamped around her neck. “Where are you going?” The man’s questioning voice came from behind. “What do you think? Of course I’m escaping! You want to kill me, why wouldn’t I escape?” Jiang Li’s arms kept waving in the air, trying to break free from the man. But the strength between them was too different, after struggling for a long time, she remained motionless. “When did I say I was going to kill you?

” Hei Duo frowned slightly, even more confused. “Don’t you Black Bear tribe members come here to kill people?” She turned her head and looked back angrily, pointing at the corpses not far away. “Look, these are all your masterpieces!” Hei Duo glanced in the direction Jiang Li pointed, knowing he was wrong, he didn’t say anything. “But I didn’t kill them.” His black eyes were calm, he looked at Jiang Li seriously. Hei Duo’s face was very handsome, with the wheat-colored skin characteristic of the Black Bear tribe.

He was tall and strong, with high cheekbones, deep and bright eyes, and his whole body exuded a masculine aura. Jiang Li was slightly stunned, although she didn’t quite believe what the man said, but seeing his innocent expression, it seemed like he wasn’t lying. “I only came here for food, I didn’t think about killing any Snake Tribe members.”

Hei Duo said, pointing to the sack not far away. “I didn’t want to come here, but my mother and sister were so hungry they couldn’t stand it anymore, I took the food and stayed here, I didn’t participate in their killing.” “Really?” Jiang Li raised an eyebrow.

Seeing that Jiang Li still didn’t believe him, Hei Duo nodded heavily. “Really!” Those clear eyes and honest, simple face made Jiang Li lower her guard a little. “Then why don’t you let me go? How long are you going to hold my neck?” Hearing this, Hei Duo, as if his hand had been burned, quickly retracted it, a faint pink appeared on his ears. “Sorry.”

 “For saving me, I’ll tell the Snake Tribe people about your taking food, and I’ll tell them not to hold it against you.” “Yes, okay. Thank you.”

Hei Duo nodded foolishly, his eyes showing gratitude. His appearance was completely different from the Black Bear tribe members who were killing recklessly outside. Jiang Li pursed her lips, thinking, this guy is too easy to deceive, isn’t he? But she couldn’t waste any more time, after all, she hadn’t found the three little ones yet.
