Chapter 42
Alex went to the witch doctor and asked for the herbs that Gavin had mentioned, but the witch doctor told him that he still had to miss the Herbal Herb.

Youlingcao grows in the Moon Valley, and its quantity is extremely rare. It is all luck for others to pick it.

Alex asked the witch doctor You Lingcao about his appearance and his favorite environment, and then went to Moon Valley.

After dark, Alex came back.

He handed the Youling grass in his hand to Gavin: "Are these enough?"

Gavin glanced at it and nodded, he hurried to make medicine.

The bright moonlight shone on the ground of the wooden house, and the man's lips were pale. He watched Gavin feed the concoction to Susu's mouth, and then he was relieved, and he turned and left the wooden house.

Fuya who was behind noticed his limping walking posture and let out a "huh", her eyes fell on the man's calf, only to find that his calf was bloody and bloody, and the bones inside were faintly visible.

……

Alex went to the witch doctor

The old man applied the medicinal herb to his wound and asked, "How did you do it?"

The man replied in a low voice: "Spotted hyena bites."

Spotted hyenas live in groups. They are greedy and treacherous, and they know how to fight in groups. They will not give up until their prey is captured.

After Alex arrived in Moon Valley, he searched for a long time before finding Youlingcao beside a hidden cave. With Youlingcao in his arms, he hurried to the tribe, but encountered a group of spotted hyenas on the way.

More than 30 spotted hyenas ran over like wolves and tigers after seeing him. Alex's pupils shrank, and he tried to dodge, but he was still chased by them.

He was holding a stone knife in one hand and tightly protecting the Youling grass in his arms with the other. Seeing that her companion was hacked to death, one of the female spotted hyenas angrily bit Alex's calf and tore off a piece of it. The flesh and blood, and then chewed twice and swallowed it.

The witch doctor Kane sighed after hearing this, and he warned: "Remember to change the medicine every day, and don't go hunting for these two days."

Alex whispered back, "I know."

……

The next day, Susu opened her eyes, she saw two more people in the wooden house, and was startled.

Gavin saw her wake up, with a trace of joy on his face, he asked softly, "How do you feel?"

Susu put her hands on the bed and sat up: "It's much better." She asked curiously, "Why are you here?"

Gavin replied: "He went to Di Clan to find me, and I didn't know you were sick."

Susu pursed her dry lips, she looked around only to find that there was no sign of Alex, and couldn't help asking: "Where is he?"

Gavin lowered his eyes and said nothing, Fuya behind him replied: "I don't know."

After Fuya finished speaking, she noticed that the beautiful woman's eyes fell on her. Looking at her fair and delicate face, Fuya puffed out her chest not to be outdone, hmph~ she's not bad either.

Susu withdrew her eyes lightly, and she looked out of the window.

The winter sun is not as scorching and glaring as in summer, but has a gentle meaning.The snow on the ground has not yet melted, and there are milky white rime hanging on the treetops not far away. Occasionally, a few tribesmen hurried past the wooden house.

With a "creak", the door of the wooden house was suddenly opened.

Suddenly, the cold wind blew into the house wantonly.

The visitor was tall and tall, and he slowly walked in front of Susu.

Alex lowered his eyes, and after a while, his deep and hoarse voice sounded: "Are you awake?"

Susu raised her eyes and bumped into his deep green eyes. The man had just come back from outside, and he still had the cold winter air on his body.

Seeing him staring straight at her face, Su Su couldn't help lowering her head and replying, "Yes."

At this time, Jie's voice suddenly came from outside the house: "The leader..."

Alex frowned, and he turned and walked out the door.

Susu on the bed inadvertently noticed his awkward walking posture, looked down, and saw the wound on his leg, her eyes were startled for a moment.

Jie came to deliver food, and he handed Alex some roast meat and a pot of broth.

……

Alex threw the barbecue to Gavin and Fuya, and he sat by the bed with the broth, as if he wanted to feed her the broth himself.

Susu looked at the stone pot brought to her mouth, she held it with both hands: "Thank you, I'll do it myself!"

The man's thin lips were slightly pursed, he looked at her silently, and after a while, he let go of his hand.

Su Su secretly breathed a sigh of relief, she held the stone pot and drank slowly.

She has a small appetite and is full after two sips.

Susu wanted to get out of bed and put the stone pot aside, but the next second, the man grabbed her arm and said, "Drink it all."

Su Su looked back, looked at the man's calm green eyes and said, "I'm full, I really can't drink it."

After a while, Alex took the stone pot from her hand, and he drank the rest of the broth.

Susu's eyelashes trembled slightly, and she felt a little uncomfortable in her heart.

In the past, Susu's mother taught her not to waste food, so she would eat as much as she wanted every time she served a meal, and occasionally she couldn't finish it, so she fed it to grandma's native dog.

She didn't expect a man to eat her leftovers, it felt strange.

Seeing this, the light in Gavin's eyes couldn't help dimming.After the two reunited, Gavin noticed that the relationship between Susu and this man seemed to be inseparable, and no one could get in between them.

……

The Montes did not build redundant wooden houses.

At night, Alex spread a layer of animal skins on the slate for Gavin and the others to sleep on.

Gavin let Fuya sleep on the slate, and he planned to squat next to the slate for the night.

The moonlight poured on the ground of the wooden house, and the sound of snow falling on the branches outside could be heard in the silence of the room.

Susu was lying on the bed, she turned over, the distance between the two was about an arm's length, she looked at the man's clear jawline.

Alex noticed her looking over, and stared at her flatly, as if asking what's wrong?
After a while, Susu's red lips parted slightly, and she asked in a low voice, "What happened to your legs?"

How could it hurt so badly?

Gavin and the others didn't fall asleep either, they opened their eyes when they heard Susu's voice.

Alex's Adam's apple rolled, his eyes flickered and he replied: "I accidentally injured it while hunting."

His pride didn't want her to know he was being mobbed by hyenas.

After hearing this, Susu frowned, she said "oh", then whispered again: "Beasts in winter will be irritable if they don't find their prey. Be careful when you hunt."

Listening to her softly speaking, Alex had a smile in his eyes, and the wound on his calf didn't hurt anymore: "Yeah."

After dawn, Susu sat up, and she felt that her body was almost recovered.

Gavin handed her the concoction and watched her drink it all.

After a while, Susu got out of bed, wrapped in a layer of animal skin and stood outside the window, looking at the snow-capped mountains in the distance.

……

Gavin bid her farewell as soon as she recovered.

Gavin put on the backpack and looked at Susu's eyes complicatedly. He said softly, "Take care of yourself in the future. Your body is relatively weak. Try not to go out when winter comes. Eat more meat on weekdays. Don't always Eat wild fruit."

Susu listened quietly, she nodded.

Fuya, who was beside Gavin, saw his expression of reluctance, and his words were full of caring. She had never felt this kind of considerate care.

They should have had a good relationship before, right?

Fuya felt a little bitter in her heart, she turned her back.

Susu stood outside the wooden house and watched the two people's backs. Suddenly, she saw the girl next to Gavin running towards her.

Fuya took a breath, touched her nose that was red from the cold and said quickly: "The wound on your man's leg was injured when he was looking for medicine for you." After speaking, she quickly followed Gavin's pace.

A look of astonishment appeared in Susu's eyes, and after a while, she walked slowly towards the wooden house.

……

Alex was sitting on the bed changing his dressing, when he looked up, he saw Su Suli casually saying at the door: "What are you doing there?"

Susu's mind was still a little chaotic, she looked at the bloody wound on the man's leg, she pursed her lips, and walked over slowly.

She squatted at Alex's feet, helping him clean up the herb left over from yesterday.

Alex was stunned. He didn't expect that she would help him apply the medicine. From his perspective, her face was calm, and her hand movements were as gentle as a feather, bringing a burst of itching.

The man had a smile on his brows and eyes, and his heart was about to fly out of the joyful feeling of body and mind.
