Chapter 68 The Beast-eared Girls’ Thoughts, the Pig-headed Chieftain Cries Upon Hearing Them
While the pig-headed man’s foot was still in the pit.
The other pig-headed men couldn’t yet see how gruesome the pig-headed man’s wound was.
Now that the pig-headed man’s leg was pulled out of the pit.
Looking at the bloody, gruesome wound on the pig-headed man’s leg.
All the pig-headed men felt a chill run down their calves.
On the pig-headed man’s lower leg, two gashes deep enough to see bone had been made by bamboo spikes.
There were also two bloody holes, like two eyeless eye sockets.
Blood continuously gushed out.
Yes, it wasn’t flowing, it was directly gushing out from the two bloody holes.
(Pig-headed men are so fat, they must have high blood pressure, this is very reasonable!) The pig-headed man looked at his bloody, mangled, and wounded leg.
He felt his calves cramping.
They were afraid there would be more such pits on the road ahead.
Their minds were already solidified by the survival methods of a primitive society.
They believed these traps were created by others using witchcraft.
They all thought these were unavoidable things.
So they were particularly terrified of things they couldn’t understand.
All the other pig-headed men felt their legs go weak.
Thinking that they might suffer the same fate later.
Their bodies couldn’t help but start to tremble.
After the pig-headed man’s foot was pulled out of the bamboo spike pit.
The bamboo spike pit on the ground was revealed.
The Pig-headed Chieftain peered inside.
Several bamboo spikes were still stained with the pig-headed man’s blood.
Even because the edges of the bamboo spikes were not smooth.
When the pig-headed man’s leg was pulled out.
Some of the pig-headed man’s flesh and blood still clung to the bamboo spikes.
Red blood dripped down the bamboo spikes one by one.
Gathering at the bottom of the pit.
The pig-headed man’s blood gathered into a small puddle at the bottom of the pit.
Then slowly seeped into the soil.
The Pig-headed Chieftain’s pupils contracted as he looked at this scene.
The Pig-headed Chieftain couldn’t believe that such a simple thing.
Had directly crippled one of his Pig-headed Warriors.
And the bamboo spikes, dyed red with blood, were still hanging with fresh flesh and blood.
Now it looked so terrifying.
Looking at the ferocious wound on the pig-headed man’s leg.
The Pig-headed Chieftain looked towards the Witch of the Pig-headed Tribe.
Just like with the previous short-spike death trap, the Pig-headed Chieftain believed this bamboo spike pit was also created by witchcraft.
Otherwise, such a terrifying thing wouldn’t appear on the road.
The only explanation the Pig-headed Chieftain could think of was witchcraft.
The Witch of the Pig-headed Tribe also walked over.
Seeing the unconscious pig-headed man’s leg on the ground.
The Witch of the Pig-headed Tribe was also startled.
He looked at the bamboo spike pit on the ground in shock.
The Witch of the Pig-headed Tribe couldn’t believe that such a simple little pit.
Could injure a robust Pig-headed Warrior so badly.
And leave such ferocious wounds.
The Witch of the Pig-headed Tribe thought, this is much more amazing than his own witchcraft.
If this isn’t witchcraft, then he shouldn’t be doing this as a witch.
So, the Witch of the Pig-headed Tribe nodded solemnly at the Pig-headed Chieftain.
This meant that it was made using witchcraft.
The Pig-headed Chieftain saw that the Witch gave a definitive answer, which aligned with his own guess.
So, there was no surprise.
Instead, he continued to ask.
“Was this made by that man? Is that man the witch of this tribe?”
The Pig-headed Chieftain, with bloodshot eyes, suppressing the anger in his heart, slowly asked the Witch of the Pig-headed Tribe.
Hearing the Pig-headed Chieftain’s question.
The Witch of the Pig-headed Tribe frowned and began to think.
The Witch of the Pig-headed Tribe thought, without seeing him use witchcraft with his own eyes, he couldn’t be sure if that man was a witch.
However, the Witch of the Pig-headed Tribe then thought.
When he saw him just now, he was just standing there, and he already felt such great pressure.
And then seeing this witchcraft, which he had never seen before and was more powerful than his own.
If it wasn’t that man, then who else could it be.
Thinking of this, the Witch of the Pig-headed Tribe turned to the Pig-headed Chieftain and nodded with certainty.
This time, seeing the Witch of the Pig-headed Tribe give a definitive answer.
The Pig-headed Chieftain clenched his fist and roared furiously in the direction he had seen Lin Ye earlier, “Ahhh! I will kill you! I will make you suffer all sorts of torture!” Lin Ye was at the trench, listening to the Beast-eared Girls chat.
The wails that had just come from the forest interrupted the topic the Beast-eared Girls were discussing.
The Beast-eared Girls curiously looked up in the direction of the forest but saw nothing.
After a long pause, the screams sounded again. The Beast-eared Girls picked up their bows and arrows and jumped down from the edge of the trench, ready to wait for the pig-headed men to arrive.
But Lin Ye spoke from behind at this time.
“No need to be in such a hurry, there’s still plenty of time. Everyone relax. The pig-headed men haven’t reached the place where we dug the traps yet.” Lin Ye could roughly tell the pig-headed men’s current location by listening to the wails.
So he told the Beast-eared Girls not to rush.
The Beast-eared Girls were just getting to a crucial point, and Lin Ye was also very curious to hear how they planned to have children with the witch. (What the heck?) But after the Beast-eared Girls heard Lin Ye’s words and jumped back to sit on the edge of the trench.
Xing then spoke, changing the topic.
“Ye just said there were only over a hundred pig-headed men in total. We’ve set up so many traps. Even if each of them stepped on ten traps, they wouldn’t be able to step on them all. Will they still be alive when they get here?” Hearing Xing’s words, the other Beast-eared Girls still felt it shouldn’t be like this.
But as the screams from the forest continued incessantly, and grew more frequent.
The other Beast-eared Girls couldn’t help but start to worry.
Lin Ye shook his head with a smile, listening to the Beast-eared Girls worrying about this.
Lin Ye knew that even if each of the spike death traps killed one pig-headed man.
It still wouldn’t kill all of the over a hundred pig-headed men.
And the remaining bamboo spike pits were not fatal.
Unless the pig-headed men completely lost their will to fight and turned to flee.
But such a thing shouldn’t happen. After all, so many of them had already died. As long as the Chieftain didn’t die, there shouldn’t be any sign of escape.
Lin Ye knew that the chance of this happening was very low.
But Lin Ye actually hoped for it to happen.
Defeating the pig-headed men without a fight was the result Lin Ye wanted the most.
Because if they fought, the Beast-eared Girls would be at risk of injury.
If they could kill all these pig-headed men or scare them away using only traps, it would undoubtedly be the best outcome. And when the Pig-headed Tribe actually fled, it would mean they had been mostly wiped out.
At that time, it would be up to Lin Ye to decide whether or not to pursue the fleeing pig-headed men and attack their tribe.
Lin Ye watched as the Beast-eared Girls became increasingly worried that the pig-headed men would all die, listening to the screams from the forest. They even wanted to climb out of the trench and go to the forest to check the situation.
Lin Ye couldn’t help but wonder, why were the Beast-eared Girls now worrying about the lives of the pig-headed men.
Lin Ye couldn’t figure it out, so he asked the Beast-eared Girls.
“What are you all worried about? Isn’t it good if all the pig-headed men die in the forest? Why are you so anxious?” The Beast-eared Girls turned to look at Lin Ye and explained with great concern.
“If all the pig-headed men die in the forest, how can we shoot them with our bows and arrows?”
The Beast-eared Girls held up their bows and arrows, all stating that they wanted to shoot the pig-headed men with their bows and arrows. “That’s right, Ye. We’ve been practicing archery for so many days, just to shoot those pig-headed men. If they all die, then wasn’t all my practice in vain?” “I haven’t even seen a pig-headed man yet. I want to see a live pig-headed man and then shoot him.” “I also want to shoot the pig-headed men.” “I really want to shoot something.” “I want to attack too.”
Lin Ye felt a tremor in his heart after hearing this.
“Are all of you this brave? It’s not enough for them to die in traps; they must come over for you to shoot them yourself. If the Pig-headed Chieftain knew you all thought this way, he would cry.” Lin Ye thought to himself.
Then, he said to the eager-to-fight Beast-eared Girls.
“Don’t worry everyone, the pig-headed men won’t die so easily. They will definitely come here. Remember to shoot them quickly when they arrive, and don’t let them get close to the trench.”
