Transmigrated into a wicked female raising cubs, the beast husbands are fighting over her!

Chapter 317 This Is Not an Accident

The old woman was holding a blood-stained animal skin bag, inside which were three newborn cubs.

When Qiao Xixi and Guman stepped forward and saw it, their expressions turned ugly.

Of those cubs, one had no eyes and no limbs, another had an extra hand on its back, and the last one had a head twice the size of a normal cub, with eyes that stared out like a frog's. It was lying stiffly in the animal skin bag, completely lifeless.

The other two were still panting, but their breaths were very weak, and Qiao Xixi could already smell the death aura emanating from them.

Qiao Xixi quickly took the animal skin bag from the old woman's hand, wrapped it up, and prevented the other beastmen from seeing the three strange cubs again.

She said calmly, "Grandma, don't panic, this is just an accident."

The elderly woman, being older, had recovered from her initial shock.

"Yes, yes, look at me, what nonsense I'm spouting."

After treating the ancient flower, the shaman came over, opened the animal skin bag, glanced at it, and sighed.

She looked at Gu Hua's two beast husbands and said, "Your mistress has just given birth to her cubs and is very weak. Please take good care of her."

The dark-skinned wolf beastman's face showed undisguised pain. Gu Hua was carrying his cubs this time. He choked out, "Witch doctor, what about the cubs..."

The witch doctor whispered, "Don't tell the other orcs. We'll handle this."

The male black wolf couldn't help but cry, but dared not say anything more.

"Thank you, witch doctor."

Qiao Xixi had already taken the cubs to the stone house next door. When she opened the cloth bag again, the cubs were already dead.

She felt bad looking at the tiny bundle, but she also knew that these cubs were not only underdeveloped in appearance, but also had serious problems with their internal organs.

They cannot survive.

"Clan leader."

Josie covered the cloth bundle and looked at the witch doctor. "Witch doctor, have you encountered this situation in the tribe before?"

The witch doctor exhaled and shook his head. "In the past, even if there were problems with newborn cubs, it was extremely rare. But this whole litter is like this. This is the first time I've ever seen anything like it."

"Is it because Gu Hua and her beast husband have health problems?"

The witch doctor frowned deeply. "It's hard to say. I just examined Gu Hua, and I can't see anything wrong."

She looked at the dead cubs and said, "I must inform the Beast God about this. Chieftain, please hand them over to me."

"it is good."

After receiving the animal skin bag, the witch doctor left.

With a heavy heart, Qiao Xixi walked out of the stone house. Not to mention in this world with extremely limited medical technology, even in the world she used to live in, it would be difficult to find the root cause of the freak.

Standing outside, Qiao Xixi could clearly hear suppressed sobs coming from inside.

“Gu Hua’s fertility isn’t good, so she had been looking forward to this pregnancy for a long time, but she never expected it to turn out like this.” Gu Man came up behind Qiao Xixi, her heart equally heavy.

Josie held Guman's hand and gently comforted her, "You'll all be alright, this might just be an accident."

Guman frowned, her eyes looking at Qiao Xixi as if she wanted to say something but hesitated.

"what happened?"

Guman pulled Qiao Xixi away from the stone house, looked around, and only after seeing that she and Xijing were the only ones there did she whisper, "No, Xixi."

"what?"

Guman lowered her voice even further, "This isn't the first time this has happened, but this time, it was Guhua who gave birth to those strange cubs." "I haven't been looking for you during this time... because I also lost a few cubs."

Qiao Xixi was slightly startled and looked at her in astonishment, "What exactly happened?"

Guman's eyes immediately welled up with tears. She was considered one of the more fertile females in the tribe, but she had been mating relatively late.

After they got married, she gave birth to Tata before the summer of the following year.

However, because Tata was quite large at the time, her body was damaged during childbirth, and the witch doctor advised her to rest before giving birth again.

Her husbands felt sorry for her and took good care of her body after they found out. Until this year, when she felt she could have more babies, she got pregnant smoothly.

"I got pregnant on the way to the Black Panther Tribe, but not long after I settled in, something suddenly happened to the baby in my belly."

That day, she had just gotten up as usual when she was suddenly struck by a sharp pain in her stomach. Before she could even react, she felt something flowing out of her body.

“Those were four fully formed cubs, but they all left me. And strangely, they all looked very similar to the cubs from today…”

Josie gently embraced her, feeling her silent sorrow.

After crying for a while, Guman finally cheered up and said, "Xixi, it's not just me. I've found several other females doing the same thing recently, but none of them have made a fuss about it."

After all, giving birth to a monster is not a good thing for a female.

"Okay, tell me who they are one by one, and I will ask about the situation. Don't be sad, I will find out the reason."

Guman gave Qiao Xixi several names, and Qiao Xixi remembered them all.

Josie comforted Guman for a while before letting her beast husband take her back to rest.

On the way back to the inner city, Josh didn't say a word.

Xi Jing quietly stayed by her side.

"Xi Jing, has the Merfolk ever experienced a similar situation before?"

After pondering for a moment, Xi Jing said, "Yes, the reason we found out at the time was that there was a problem with the seawater in the area."

"Is there a problem with the seawater?"

"Yes, the ocean currents have brought some toxic water that is harmful to merfolk to the waters where we live, causing health problems for our people. So, Xixi, if you want to find the cause, you can start by looking at the water source."

Qiao Xixi's eyes lit up, and she grabbed his hand. "Yes, you're right. I can check if there's a problem with the water source first."

Xi Jing grasped Qiao Xixi's hand in return, a joyful smile playing on her lips.

"Shall we go now?"

"Yes, let's go now, it's still early."

"it is good."

The Black Panther tribe relies almost entirely on a stream not far from the tribe for drinking water. This stream flows down from the mountain and is filled with mountain spring water.

Qiao Xixi had previously felt that it was inconvenient to have to go outside the tribe to get water, so she had them cut down a lot of bamboo and divert some of the spring water into the tribe.

In this way, their drinking water problem can be solved very well.

Qiao Xixi first went with Xi Jing to the spring's inlet. Since the spring water was being brought in, they built a very large stone vat underneath it. Once the vat was full, the water would overflow and flow into the wasteland they had reclaimed.

In this way, water will not be wasted.

Qiao Xixi walked to the stone vat and was about to reach out to check the water inside when Xi Jing stopped her.
