When he came back after washing the pot, he saw Tang Guo sitting back against the dried animal skin. She was frowning and looking serious and thoughtful. She was carrying a wooden bowl. She hadn’t even noticed when he came in.

“What’s this?”

As soon as he got close, he smelled something very unpleasant and bitter. It smelled exactly like the herbs that Granny Witch Doctor had called up. He raised his eyebrows in surprise.

Did she actually know medicine?

Tang Guo looked up at him and said, “This is Han Xin Grass. It has the effect of clearing heat, detoxifying, and relieving pain. It’s suitable for your current wound.”

Bai Ye had been a little bewildered by her sudden awakening of medical skills, but when he heard how professional she was, he immediately had no doubts.

Because even if Granny Witch Doctor knew that this herb could cure injuries, she might not know what its name was and what effect it had.

However, he did not use it. He had always felt that his body was very good. A mere wound was nothing. He had even broken one of the birdman’s wings!

When he woke up, there would definitely be no problem. Hence, he did not care at all. As usual, he went out to patrol to ensure the safety of the tribe and instructed the night guards to be careful before returning to sleep.

Tang Guo did not force him to apply the medicine. What if she said too much and made him misunderstand that she had ulterior motives like the original Tang Guo?

Tsk, better not!

Besides, she had the impression that the beastmen’s bodies were indeed very strong. They would usually recover after being injured for a while.

So she let it go and lay down to sleep.

Because she had taken off the beast skin in her sleep last night, she did not dare to fall asleep that night. Most of the time, she closed her eyes and absorbed the surrounding grass and trees.

In her daze, she suddenly heard breathing getting deeper in the cave. Something was wrong.

She opened her eyes, adjusted to the darkness of the cave, and looked at the source of the voice.

Was it Bai Ye? What happened to him?

Bai Ye’s breathing was heavy, and he seemed uncomfortable. He tossed and turned on the stone bed. The shallow layer of hay on top rustled with his movements.

“Bai Ye?”

Tang Guo called out to him several times, but there was no response. Thinking of his injuries, she could not help but feel a little worried, so she went closer to check.

She was a wood ability user, so her aura was very fresh and comfortable. As soon as she approached him, he sensed an abnormal heat. She reached out to touch his forehead and said, “Bai Ye! You have a fever!”

In primitive society, fever was life-threatening!

Bai Ye was in a daze from the fever. In his daze, he heard her speak beside him. He looked up and saw that she was indeed beside him. He thought that he was dreaming. She was not as far away from him as she was when she was awake. Hence, he immediately reached out to hold her hand.

At that moment, Tang Guo was half-bent over, intending to check the wound on his back. She was caught off guard by the sudden attack on her chest.

She stiffened. “Bloody hell! That gangster! What’s he doing? I thought he wasn’t interested in me?” She was outraged.

She glared at him. “Behave yourself. Turn over on your stomach. I want to see your wound!”

Bai Ye was a little more awake now that she was glaring at him and shouting at him, but his head was still spinning. He pursed his lips, speechless. He hadn’t meant to attack her breasts. He’d just lost his aim because of the fever.

But despite his silent criticism, he obediently rolled over.

Tang Guo felt that in his sick state, he was much more obedient than his usual arrogant and bad-tempered self!

Bai Ye gave her a questioning look.

Was that how he usually looked? He clearly felt that he had been treating her quite well recently. He even let her sleep in his cave!

Tang Guo lit the fire. After the cave lit up, she saw the wound on his back and couldn’t help but gasp!

Previously, the sky was dim and she did not take a close look at it. She thought that the wound was just a little longer, but now, she could see that it was not only long, but also very deep!

Because it was stained with something dirty and he did not wash it in time to disinfect it and apply medicine, coupled with the hot weather, it had resulted in inflammation and ulceration. That was why he had a fever!

Her face hardened. “Are you stupid? You refuse to use the drug when you’re so badly hurt? Is it because you don’t trust me?”

That made sense. The Host had been brainless. No wonder he didn’t believe her.

Bai Ye’s mind was fuzzy, but he could think to defend himself. “I didn’t!”

“Huh. You didn’t refuse to use the drug? Or didn’t you trust me?”

Tang Guo had already begun to clean his wound with the herbal solution she had collected. The disinfectant effect of the herbal solution was top-notch. She would just treat it as letting him off easy!

She said, “There’s nothing you can do even if you don’t believe me. You’ll die if you keep burning like this!”

“It’s not that I don’t believe you!” Bai Ye muttered, then immediately felt the cool, soothing sensation of the wound behind him where her hand had cleaned it.

However, he only felt comfortable for a moment before he felt a sharp pain.

“Hiss… Tang Guo! What are you doing?!”

Tang Guo twirled the sharp bone knife with an evil smile. “I thought you said you trusted me. Do you regret it now?”
