"Why didn't you go get bedding?"
Gu Shan of the Militia Team could not help saying, "The supplies are all with the Village Elder. The wind and sand outside are too fierce, so we thought we could tough it out for the first night and ask for them tomorrow."
"Tough it out, my ass. If you get sick, how are you supposed to travel tomorrow?"
Lin Yi cursed, then took several people to Gu Yuan to request supplies. He handed everyone a fur coat to ward off the cold.
Seeing Lin Yi take such good care of them, the militia members from both villages felt warmth in their hearts.
Compared to their own Village Elders and Captains, Lin Yi was far more attentive.
Seeing this, Gu Yuan said somewhat guiltily, "Kid Lin, you're still the more careful one. I didn't even notice these things..."
Lin Yi knew Gu Yuan would be concentrating on refining Divine Talismans in his tent at night, so it was normal for him to overlook such details. He said, "I was given the role of person in charge. Isn't that so I can solve the team's problems? You don't need to blame yourself."
Gu Yuan laughed heartily. "That's true. Without you, just handling this team's food, drink, and toilet needs would be enough to drive me mad."
After leaving the tent, Lin Yi went over to inspect the livestock pen.
After all the slaughter along the way, only a few horses and cattle remained in the group. The mules had all been eaten.
Outside the desert, the cold wind cut like knives. Wolf Cub Erhuo was huddled between several horses, keeping warm.
When he saw Lin Yi approaching, Er Huo let out an "Awoo," asking whether Lin Yi wanted to come in and warm himself too.
