Chapter 275 Looking for Brother
The old butler knew Qiqi's eagerness to find her family, so he drove the carriage at a steady and swift pace. They reached the next town in one day. Qiqi disembarked and began her search, while Xiaoyi followed her master. The old butler drove the carriage to find an inn to stay.
Xie Lei had already reached the next town and saw many demonic beasts attacking the townspeople. A mercenary group dedicated to hunting demonic beasts lived in the town. They were desperately hunting demonic beasts, laughing and saying, "Isn't this giving us beast pills? Everyone, come on! Whoever kills the most will get a reward," shouted the mercenary group leader.
"Captain, is there any meat tonight? We want to eat the meat of monsters to increase our strength. Don't sell all the monster meat."
"Okay, go ahead and hunt. Today we'll keep two monsters for ourselves to eat. We won't go home until we're drunk tonight. Come on, kill!" The team leader shouted, and he also rushed into the group of monsters.
Xie Lei flew over a residential building and watched. He hadn't participated in the monster hunt. Because of Qiqi, he had developed feelings for the beasts. Whether they were monsters or the beasts in Qiqi's space, they wouldn't attack humans without provocation. It must be the people of the town who harmed the monsters, and they were probably seeking revenge. Seeing that they were specifically attacking the mercenaries, they must have killed the most important monster among them.
Xie Lei saw a man wearing animal skins in the group of monsters, who was directing the monsters to attack.
He watched intently, noticing the small figure making whining sounds, as if communicating with a demonic beast. The mercenaries had hunted down several demonic beasts, and the beasts had also killed several of the mercenaries.
The people in the monster group, seeing their beasts killed, grew anxious. Their noises grew even more urgent. The monsters grew agitated, biting even more frantically. Some mercenaries had their arms, legs, and feet bitten off. Some had their heads bitten off by the more powerful monsters. The monsters wounded them, but they didn't eat them. They simply tried to kill as many humans as possible. It was as if they had intelligence.
Xie Lei was also surprised. These monsters were very smart and intelligent.
The mercenaries were slaughtered and retreated, leaving behind many wounded and disabled people. The monsters also retreated, dragging the injured humans with them. Xie Lei saw that someone among the monsters had also stood up. It was a woman. She had long flowing hair, a fair face, and was extremely charming. She looked a little bit unhuman.
Xie Lei suddenly realized that the monsters could transform into humans. He followed the monsters without revealing himself. He wanted to see where these monsters lived.
The monsters entered a large forest, and their speed slowed down. The girl sent a few monsters to stand guard at a distance behind them. They were afraid that the mercenaries would send people to follow them. Their residence could not be exposed.
Xie Lei admired the monster woman's arrangement. It seemed like they operated like this often. He was afraid the woman would discover him, and also afraid the sentries behind him would discover him. He became more vigilant.
"My sister and the others are back. Sisters, have you avenged our brothers? Are all the mercenaries dead?" A little monster boy ran over and hugged the woman.
"Brother, we have defeated them and killed many people from the mercenary group. We also brought back several human corpses. You can go to the back mountain and have a big meal." Many monsters ran to the back mountain.
Xie Lei stood on the top of the mountain, looking at the animals and people in the cave.
The woman entered the cave and saw her brothers, wounded by the mercenaries. One beast had dozens of knife wounds deep enough to reveal the bone. Another had a large wound on its neck, still bleeding. Many of the monsters were wounded and unable to transform into human form.
The girl looked at her brothers' wounds and burst into tears again. "Brothers, are you still in pain? We killed many mercenaries and avenged you. It's just that I don't have the medicine to treat you. I'm trying to find a way. We can't let your wounds get worse."
"Sister, don't take any risks. When I get better, I will take revenge on my own. Don't go to human places anymore. If they recognize you as a monster in disguise and catch you, it will be troublesome." The brother advised.
The girl walked out of the cave worriedly. Xie Lei also used his mind to know what was happening inside the cave. He wanted to save these monsters.
The girl came to a small hill and sat on it.
Xie Lei landed beside her and covered her mouth. "I won't hurt you. I have medicine to save your brothers. You can treat their wounds. Here are a few pills. They'll heal quickly. If you don't believe me, I'll take one and show you." Xie Lei finished his words quickly. He looked at the girl.
The girl shook her head. "If you don't scream, I'll let you go."
The girl nodded, and Xie Lei took his hand away. The girl didn't move. She looked at Xie Lei. She looked into his eyes.
"You are not our monster transformed, you are a human. Why are you helping us? We killed people, aren't you afraid that we will kill you?" said the girl.
"There are bad people, and there are kind monsters. No one is born bad; it all depends on who guides them. If you have good parents, family, and good friends, you will be moved by their actions. And you will be on the right path."
"If you followed the evildoer, you wouldn't have fallen so deeply if you still had a conscience. I believe in you. Although you are monsters, you haven't harmed the common people. You have only sought revenge on those who have harmed you. If it were me, I would seek revenge as well. Take the medicine and try it. See if it works, then come back to me. I'll be waiting for you here," Xie Lei said.
"I believe you. I'll give it to my brother right away. I won't blame you if it doesn't work." The girl picked up the medicine and ran away.
The girl didn't say anything to her brother. She sprinkled the powder on his leg and fed him another pill. The bleeding soon stopped, and there were signs of healing. His pain also eased, and he regained spiritual power.
The girl's brother shook and turned into a tall and handsome man.
"Sister, where did you get this medicine? My wounds don't hurt anymore, some parts have healed, and my whole body is full of spiritual power. That's great, where did you get such a good medicine?" asked the brother.
"Brother, you are really much better now. That's great, brother." The girl threw herself into her brother's arms and burst into tears.
The handsome man wiped away the sister's tears and comforted her until she had cried enough and vented her feelings.
"Brother, I was so worried about you. I'll go get medicine for you now, wait for me to come back." After the girl said this, she ran out.
Soon, the girl returned to the top of the hill. She didn't see Xie Lei. She shouted anxiously, "My benefactor, I misunderstood you. I'm sorry. The medicine you gave me was very effective. Thank you. Please give us some more medicine. Thank you!"
