He is not the beast

Chapter 111

The top of Snow Deer Mountain is quite spacious, and the snow deer are crowded together in a corner. They are shivering, their big wet eyes are particularly frightened, and they are gathering together in panic.

The orcs have heard that snow deer are timid, but this look is different from those who are afraid of orcs.

Even though the hundreds of snow deer were very afraid of the orcs and feathered men who came later, they just huddled together and huddled in the corner, not daring to bark or run elsewhere.

It seems... they are afraid of orcs, but they are more afraid of other things.

But now they are the only ones on the top of Snow Deer Mountain. The orcs don't understand, especially the tiger men. They have heard leopard men and werewolves say about these snow deer, and it's a pity not to say, "The meat is too smelly to eat."

"Stop talking about this, Chief Zhuo Yan asked not to touch them. Let's go downstairs to pick up people."

"Do you think there is really a disaster?" "

If there is no disaster, our whole family will

go here."

"As soon as we get back, Aunt Carol and Aoun. The clan leader has packed up everything. If we don't leave, it seems like everything will be in vain. Come here."

"Hahaha."

The tiger orcs found it funny every time they heard it, and several of the orcs laughed loudly. , having dissipated the fatigue and tension of running all the way, they turned into human shapes, simply wrapped in skins, with messy beards and hair, and walked down to pick up the tribesmen and other people - except the eagle people.

There is a steep path to the top of the mountain.

The eagle-men and eagle-men went up with the vines and tied them to the big tree on the top of the mountain. The sub-orc cubs carried the vine baskets on their backs and climbed up holding the vines.

In this way, several tribes, whether male or female orcs or sub-orcs, helped each other and climbed to the top of the mountain carrying heavy goods. Zhuo Yan was the last group to go up. There were trees on the top of the mountain, which was fairly flat and could accommodate thousands of people. .

It's a pity...

the werewolves and leonines haven't arrived yet.

"Everyone rested where they were and had eaten. The orcs and the feathered men with wings who could carry weight went to chop firewood halfway up the mountain. The cubs of the sub-orcs who could work were tidying up the top of the mountain and counting supplies." Zhuo Yan said.

After running all the way, everyone was very tired by now. The tribesmen sat together, wrapped in skins to keep each other warm and rely on each other. On the entire top of the mountain, there were the most leopards and tigers, and only thirty-seven lions, half of which were missing.

Ge Hu and Ah Zong stood at the entrance to the top of the mountain and looked into the distance. They were talking in low voices. When the wind blew, they could faintly hear the words "patriarch", "everyone", "come again"...

Zhuo Yan held his arms in his arms . Lele Buhei and Kangkang were in his arms, and he kissed the three of them on their foreheads one after another.

"Good boy, take a rest and sleep for a while."

Zhuo Kang tried his best to wrap his furry body around his brothers and sisters. Ah Yin was in human form, holding her brother in her arms. They leaned against the tree and closed their eyes briefly to sleep.

I don't know how long I slept for, but the wind on the top of the mountain sounded like plaintive cries, mixed with small bustling voices. Under such circumstances, Zhuo Yan actually slept soundly - even if it was short-lived, his spirit was relaxed.

It was the best sleep he'd had since the rainy season.

After sleeping, Zhuo Yan woke up and found that some members of his tribe were still sleeping. He knew that he had not slept for long, but he was in good spirits and his eyes were bright. As soon as he woke up, A Yin also opened his eyes, and the two of them They looked at each other, gently covered the children with leather, stood up, and went to the other side.

Ah Zong and Ge Hu were still guarding the entrance, waiting for their clansmen from afar.

"Chief, when will your dream come?" Ah Zong asked.

Zhuo Yan: "I only remember the heavy snow days."

Ah Zong breathed a sigh of relief, "The heavy snow is the blizzard. They still have time and can still come."

Ge Hu hummed, "I want to go down and take a look. , in case they go the wrong way."

"They have been to Snow Deer Mountain." There are transparent stones in Snow Deer Mountain, and some orcs from the Lion Tribe came to the market and came here to play.

Zhuo Yan said: "I must come back when it snows."

"I understand, Chief Zhuo Yan, thank you." Ge Hu was really uneasy, so he went down the mountain after getting the word.

Ah Zong is here to guard the other tribesmen, she and Kong Yu.

There is no shelter from the wind and rain on the top of the mountain, just some trees. It's almost a day of rest. Zhuo Yan arranges work. The orc Yuren goes to the mountains to cut firewood and transport it here. He led the orcs to clear away the weeds and dead grass and trees on the top of the mountain, and built some simple sheds based on the original trees to provide some shelter from the wind and snow.

The sky was gray.

After working like this for three days, everyone got very little food because they didn't know when the disaster would come, and the darkness in the dream lasted for a long time - because the sun and the moon lacked light and could not tell the difference between day and night, Zhuo Yan could only do his best. Send less in the early stage.

During the day, they would go down in batches, where there would be water to drink, and they could simply stay warm and clean in the hot spring pool, so they would go together in batches. At night, I go back to the top of the mountain and sleep. Because the clan leader/Zhuoyan clan leader said that the incident happened on a snowy day, they were afraid of falling asleep at night in case of a heavy snowfall.

They ate little and were cold, so there were naturally some complaints among the crowd. There were more feathered people, and the orcs and sub-orcs rarely said anything. They all believed in the clan leader/Zhuoyan clan leader. Yuren had never dealt with Zhuo Yan, and only listened to Kong Xingxing's words. Now he was cold and couldn't bear it anymore.

"How about we go somewhere else first and fly here when it snows?"

"Will it happen? If there is no disaster, wouldn't we be frozen to death here?"

"I should have known better than to come, Fei So long."

Kong Xingxing's face turned dark, and he wanted to say hello, but Shitou held his hand, and Kong Xingxing held back.

On the fourth day, the werewolves and the remaining lion-men had not yet arrived.

Ge Hu ran back, his face gloomy and thin, "It's snowing."

"Ah? No?"

"Where is it snowing?"

"It wouldn't happen at this time in previous years." said the leopard man and sub-orc man. , because they miss the potatoes in the fields, they also learned to keep track of the days and count them day by day. In previous years, when they were harvesting crops in the fields at this time, they would be harvesting potatoes in the next few days.

Ge Hu pointed in one direction, "I ran that way for two days, and it snowed heavily."

"Oh no, it's snowing. Why haven't the werewolves come yet?"

Ah Zong looked at Ge Hu, and then at the incoming man. Lu, he was worried. It was snowing and it was still very heavy. When would the clan leader and the remaining clan members come?

...

After Ah Yin left for Yuren Mountain, the lion-man orcs who went hunting returned to the tribe five days later. They were lucky and hunted three rhinos. However, this year's rhinos were much thinner and easier to catch, as if they had accepted their fate. Same.

"Clan leader, where are Gehu and the others?"

"Yes, why does it look like there are a lot less people?"

Faced with the question from the youngest brave orc in the tribe, the lion man chief told the story of A Yin's arrival and Zhuo Yan's warning dream. "...They all went over first, to Snow Deer Mountain."

"There are fewer prey, but it's not impossible to catch.", "That's right.", "It's very cold over the Leopard Man. Maybe the Leopard Man was affected by the disaster. , we don't."

"No, no, A Yin said, our tribe will be submerged by the sea water, and everyone will die."

"By the sea water? But we have never even seen the sea.", "I heard the Yu people say before, where is the sea, but it is separated How could such a high and long mountain be submerged by the sea?"

The orcs ran for seven or eight days before hunting the rhinoceros. They were very proud and did not believe in any dreams.

The lion man chief frowned and said, "Let me think about it again. , you go back and rest first."

Another day later, the leader of the lion-man tribe held a meeting and told the leopard man's warning. He looked at the tribe, "The remaining orcs and sub-orc cubs want to leave for Snow Deer Mountain. You can go, if you don't want to or don't believe it... then stay."

Some people were afraid to go, and some didn't believe it. Finally, another day passed, and in the early morning of this day, some orcs left the lion-human tribe in a team, carrying their companion cubs on their backs. There are only twenty-three people in this team.

They traveled day and night towards Snow Deer Mountain -

"It's snowing!"

The partner on his back shouted that day.

The lion-man orc looked at the sky. He didn't know why, but he had a bad intuition in his heart. He roared, "Quick, quick, quick." Everyone else follows.

In just a short period of time, the wind and snow became stronger and stronger, making it difficult for people to open their eyes and unable to see the road and direction at all.

"Ho--" How to go?

"Ho ho -" Wait, wait for the wind and snow to subside.

But the wind is getting stronger and stronger, the biting cold wind. The orcs in the lead did not dare to rest and shouted: Throw away the food, take only the people, go quickly, go quickly!

Throw away the food and we will starve to death.

But the food on my back was too heavy, and the wind and snow made it even harder to run fast.

Let's go.

The orcs were arguing, and one of the sub-orcs said: When A Yin of the Leopard Man tribe came, he said that Zhuo Yan said that as long as people are around, there will be everything in the future.

So there was no more arguing. The orcs abandoned their heavy loads of food and took only a few strips of meat. They braved the wind and snow, opened a path, and looked for a familiar direction in the blizzard.

-

"No, I'll go and have a look."

"I'll go too."

Snowflakes were already falling on the top of the Snow Deer Mountain. The feathered people who originally complained about flying away also closed their mouths at this time. They felt that something was not good, and the wind The snow came too fast. The orcs of the Lion Tribe were anxious because they could not wait for their clansmen, especially the two orcs Gehu and Ah Zong, who wanted to go down and have a look.

Kong Yu called out Ah Zong, who said: "Xiao Yu, they haven't come yet, the snow is getting heavier and heavier, and I'm afraid -"

"I'm not stopping you." Kong Yu's eyes were moist, "Be careful. ."

Ah Zong smiled and said I know.

Xiao Xian clenched his fists and looked at Ge Hu. He knew that Ge Hu would definitely go. They had all broken up. In Ge Hu's mind, his own people were the most important. What could he do to persuade Ge Hu.

"I'll go with you." The female of the Eagle Clan stood up. She was the peacock's partner. If it weren't for the fact that her partner had scratched her face and threatened her, she wouldn't have come. But she has come here, eating and drinking the orcs' food these days. , let's help take a look.

"I can fly to the sky and help you see if there is a team."

Xiao Xian thought of something and rummaged around in the corner of his backpack to find a bird whistle. He clenched his fist and ran to give it to Ge Hu, "Take it. You can blow it, but I can't see the road clearly now."

"Thank you—" Ge Hu shook the bird whistle, but still didn't say anything to Xiao Xian.

Zhuo Yan knew that the lion-man orc was going to look for him, "Hurry up and set off. If the wind and snow are too heavy and you don't find anyone, just come back."

"We know."

The female eagle-man spread her wings and screamed loudly. There were two other orcs at the lion-man orc azunge lake and set off down the mountain. The female eagle-man flew low in the air.

The sky was very dark and it was hard to tell the direction. People on the top of the mountain huddled in simple tents. There were a bunch of bonfires lit in the middle of the tents. The flames were blown brightly by the cold wind. Some cubs were wrapped in the arms of their parents. , asked his father and mother in a low voice: "When can we go home?"

The cub only answered with a gentle caress.

On this day, I couldn't tell the time. The wind and snow were howling, and there were faint wolves howling underneath. Zhuo Yan stood up, and Hawa said: "The werewolves are coming."

Zhuo Yan: Finally, they are here.

Hawa sent tiger orcs to pick him up, and Zhuo Yan also arranged for leopard orcs. The wind and snow were too strong, it was dark, and the road on the mountain was very narrow. When the tiger orcs and leopard orcs just went down, they only heard a loud "hole" sound, followed by the ground shaking.

Gray sky.

"Look -"

the distance is like a huge wave, the wind, snow, forest, grassland, the ground is like waves rising and falling, rushing towards the direction of Snow Deer Mountain, Zhuo Yan lies at the entrance and shouts: "A Yin -"

is coming , the scene in the dream came.

"Ah Yin——"

Everyone on the top of the mountain hugged tightly.

Zhuo Kang Zhuole ran over, but was stopped by Zhuo Yan. The three of them looked down the mountain. It seemed to be very short and very long. Zhuo Yan finally breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the familiar sound of a leopard, "Come back quickly, come up!"

The vines hanging on the tree Falling down, the first ones who came up were the werewolf sub-orcs and the frightened furry cubs. One after another, Zhuo Yan asked Shitou Aman from the tribe to pick up the werewolf tribesmen and settle them down. In the end, among the team, he finally saw Aman. Silver also has Khajiit orcs.

"Are you injured?"

Ah Yin shook his head. Sang Long was still frightened and said, "What happened just now? The ground seems to be moving, just like the earth dragon beast, bigger and louder than that."

Zhuo Yan answered no. Come up.

But everyone who stayed on the top of the mountain knew that the warning in the dream of the leader of the Leopard People was true -

"Clan leader, our leader...", "My uncle hasn't come yet.", "He asked us to come first.", "Ah. "Mom!"

The werewolf clan members were frightened and thought of their clan members. They were all young cubs and underage. They were escorted over by the strongest orcs in the clan first. The werewolf clan leader took the remaining sub-orcs and the experienced and older ones. The orcs are still gathering supplies.

"Let's go down, let's go back and pick up people-" The werewolf orc stood up.

Just the next second, the ground shook, the sky turned black, and the snow became heavier. It was impossible to tell the direction. The werewolf orc's face was pale, he could not stand still, and he couldn't see the way he came.

The mountain is still shaking.

Zhuo Yan called the cub's name, held A Yin's hand, and the family hugged each other. I don't know how long it took, but the shaking of the ground stopped.

Kong Yu looked in one direction, blankly, with a solemn expression. Xiao Xian stayed with his parents, constantly hoping that Gehu would come back, he would come back...

The team of twenty-three lion men were lost in the snowy night, and the ground cracked under their feet. They tried their best to escape, and the gap behind them opened. It was getting bigger and bigger, and seemed to be chasing them, running away in a panic not knowing where to go.

Despair, resignation.

Until there was a cry -

"It's the cry of an eagle."

There was also the sound of a whistle, which was very subtle and vague. The orc at the head couldn't tell the team behind him or how many companions there were, so he could only roar, "Follow me, follow me." I--

The wind and snow had subsided, and it was still very dark, but Gehu Ah Zong finally met up with the Lion Man. They braved the wind and snow, with the Eagle Man leading the way, and finally arrived at the foot of Snow Deer Mountain. There was a gap at the foot of the mountain. When the lake dried up, Gehu Ah Zong let the orcs jump over first, one by two...

the gap became wider and wider.

"Jump!"

"Gehu, hurry!"

"There aren't many people. We're still missing two orcs and three sub-orcs—"

"Don't go out, jump!"

Gehu hesitated, and the whistle on his palm reminded him. He then decisively chose to jump over. There was a chasm behind him, and the entire ground collapsed and cracked. The eagle flew high into the sky and hurried to the top of the mountain. Of the twenty-three lion men, only seventeen arrived.

"Why didn't they come, patriarch? Why didn't they come."

The orc who led the team covered his face and said, "Those who believe it, come here, and those who don't believe it, stay. They don't believe it, in the tribe."

The werewolf tribe's cries, their The clan members and relatives are still in the tribe.

"The clan leader said we are very close. We are very close to Snow Deer Mountain. We can go a little later. It's too cold. They are packing food skins..."

"The ground has stopped. Can we go back to the tribe to pick them up?" The tribesmen hurriedly asked whether her family members were still there, including her uncle and aunt.

The female eagle Ai Ai who led the way said: "There is a big gaping hole underneath. It's very deep." You can't jump over it.

"Perhaps we can come up from another place -"

"Chief Zhuoyan."

The werewolf asked for help and looked at the leader of the leopard man. Zhuo Yan looked at the frightened faces, and his voice was very calm, "In the dream, this is the beginning."

The lion man and the werewolf covered their faces in despair and cried, their relatives and relatives. The tiger man, on the other hand, was still frightened and hugged his family cub tightly. Fortunately, he listened to Carol One and took care of it first. Fortunately, the clan leader brought them here.

The Yuren, who was nestled in a corner, shivering with cold and already exposed, looked into the distance - their clansmen didn't know what was going on.

"But-"

The desperate people looked at Patriarch Zhuo Yan again.

Zhuo Yan pursed his lips and said, "Please ask the Yuren for help. You can fly nearby and have a look. If there are five lions who have come or are alone, you can bring them here. Of course, your safety comes first." ."

Scramble against the clock in the early stages and try again.

"If there is any danger, come back as soon as possible."

The feathered people in the corner heard the cries of the cubs and the orcs calling out the names of their relatives in despair. They were silent for a while and then stood up. The golden-headed people were very timid and whispered: "I will fly back first if there is danger." "

Of course." Zhuo Yan nodded affirmatively, "Thank you."

Then Yanren, Diaoren, and Yingren stood up one after another.

Zhuo Yan's eyes were sincere, "Don't fly too far. Danger will come again at any time. Just look nearby and fly back if the ground moves."

They could feel the pleading of the Leopard Man clan leader and his genuine concern for their safety. Immediately they breathed a sigh of relief. They could try, try and find again.

...

Leopard Man Tribe.

The heavy snow that fell quickly covered the entire tribe. The tribe was so quiet that they could only hear the sound of falling snow, the faint roar of leopards and the sound of beating and beating.

Gu Tianzheng kicked open the wooden doors of other houses in the cave, and used the stone pots left in the cave to vent his anger and smashed the furniture inside. He couldn't vent enough, so he smashed the transparent stone ornaments and some spoons one after another. Everything was smashed to pieces.

"Hahahahaha, so what if it snows."

"It snows heavily in winter."

"How could the cave collapse! I don't believe it."

Furukawa walked in the tribe in his beast form. He looked around and finally stared at one place. ——That was the cave of the previous patriarch's mountain behind the square. Furukawa stood there and looked at it for a long time.

He thought about being caught and killed by prey in the mountains, and he was the leader of the clan.

He also thought that Dashan would no longer be the clan leader, and his son Gu Tian would be the clan leader.

As a result...

Gu Tian was still venting his anger. He broke into the cave of Bai Maozai and that damn sub-orc. Everything in it made him disgusted. He smashed them all and kicked them down -

there was a loud bang.

The ground shook and trees on the mountain fell.

Gu Tian, ​​who was roaring in the cave, quickly ran out in piss. Leopard Eyes was shocked and doubtful, but soon became unconvinced. He didn't believe it, he didn't believe it, that damn sub-orc man's dream would never come true.

Only Gu Tian and Gu He met, and the two leopards stood outside for a long time.

...

Before the second wave, the feathered people found two lion-men and sub-orcs. They were the ones who got separated from the lion-men team that came last. An adult sub-orc and a cub. They were frightened and were killed by the combined efforts of the feathered people. It was carried and flown to the top of the mountain.

When an orc was wrapped into a crack in the ground, he desperately threw his partner to the ground. Another family of three, because of the heavy wind and snow, only protected their cubs under their bodies, and their two partners died.

The cub heard the whistle and cried to alert the feather people.

The lions who stayed on the top of the mountain were very grateful, while the werewolves looked at the feathered people with a hint of hope, "Aren't our tribesmen here yet?", "Didn't you see them?"

The golden-headed tribe shook their heads.

No werewolves were seen.

The feathered man came back safely and brought two lion men back with him. When he wanted to see if the werewolf was coming again, the second explosion started - this time it was louder than the last time, and there were booms and bangs everywhere. Loud noise.

Something fell from the sky, piercing the dark night sky.

Wherever he went, forests and grasslands were ablaze with sparks.

The fire spread and burned.

Zhuo Yan told the Yu people not to set off.

The feather people all breathed a sigh of relief, while the werewolves were desperate and frightened. They moved their lips, but couldn't utter a word. They knew that what Chief Zhuo Yan said was right. They couldn't blame anyone. The leopard people were obviously so far away from them. It was obvious that the Leopard Man had informed them early, and that Snow Deer Mountain was the closest to their tribe...

who could blame them.

The ground shook violently, and the land on the top of the mountain was like a swaying boat in the apocalypse, carrying everyone's last hope for survival. Everyone sat down, hugging their loved ones tightly, or clinging to trees, and cried and screamed in fright.

Zhuo Yan hugged the children, and A Yin hugged him.

Although he had a dream and took everyone to the top of Snow Deer Mountain, the sky was shaking and the earth was shaking, and the sound of wind, cracking ground, and mountain fires were heard in his ears... He really had a feeling that this world was going to end, maybe finally The hope of pure land is just like his dream.

It was so terrible and tragic.

There is snow in the sky, there is fire everywhere below, the ground is torn apart, the smell of earth is burnt, and you can faintly hear howling...

a werewolf tribe.

The cave collapsed and was buried under heavy snow. There seemed to be people crying for help in the ears. The leader of the werewolf clan stood stunned in the tribe. There was a loud sound in the air, the fire was burning in the forest outside, and the mountains became flat and were washed away by the water. The clan member who left—that was Xiao Wo's aunt.

"It's my fault...it's all my fault."

"I thought it was too late."

"You guys, hurry up, hurry up."

But no one responded to him, and the ground beneath his feet cracked open again. The werewolf leader closed his eyes in despair and fell in... One hundred and one clan members... Fortunately, the cubs left before... Only Forty-three people...

must survive, survive.

Outside the Leopard Man tribe.

Furukawa and his son finally ran out of the tribe in animal form. They were frightened and ran towards the Snow Deer Mountain. Behind the father and son, the entire mountain of the Leopard Man Tribe collapsed suddenly, causing dust to fly.

The ground beneath my feet burst into flames.

A huge boulder passed by in the air. The father and son who were running did not notice it. They only heard a bang and a huge deep pit on the ground... One leopard was hit into the deep pit, and before the other leopard could react, it was hit by another. Hit by flint.

Lion tribe.

After the last group of orcs left with their mates and cubs, the clan leader who was left behind kept frowning. He didn't know whether it was good or bad to let the clansmen make choices. The strongest orc in the tribe looked at the sub-orcs who stayed behind and joked: "They left, leaving more food."

"Yes, why is the sea water pouring in? Where is the sea water?"

"If the sea water is so close, Why should we go to the mammoth territory to get salt mud?"

The remaining clan members also relaxed a little, "It's not that we don't believe the leader of the Leopard People. Although Zhuo Yan is very powerful and smart, his words are too vague."

"There are three rhinos, that's a lot."

So that day, in order to appease the clan members as they prepared for the winter, the clan leader said that they could have a barbecue. After the barbecue was over, they would have a good winter and go to the Leopard People clan to pick up the clan members next year. Everyone was happy and relaxed.

That afternoon, the tribe was filled with the aroma of barbecue. The Lion Tribe people were very happy. They were discussing what to prepare for next year, what they wanted to exchange for at the market, and drying raisins -

"Xiashu and the others are gone, so will we." "It's too cold

. I don't want to go to the Leopard People anymore.

It's too troublesome."

"We have exchanged a lot of cotton clothes with the Tiger People this year. With the addition of leather, we can survive even in cold weather." Go down."

In such a cheerful atmosphere, everyone praised the bravery of the remaining orcs, talked about who would mate with whom next year, and talked about the departing orcs and sub-orcs. They didn't know whether they had arrived or not, and hoped that they would be okay. Peaceful.

Then loud noises were heard. Before anyone could react, they were still holding the roasted rhinoceros meat in their hands, with relaxed smiles on their faces. A chasm opened up on the ground, and there was sea water underneath. Well out, blue water, lots of water, is salty. They have never seen the sea, but they heard the Yuren say that the blue salty water is the sea... What

Zhuo Yan, the leader of the Leopard People, said is true. of.

Yuren Wushan.

The leader of the Diao people was still very angry, "I just told you that you can't mate with useless peacocks. Diao Ming has bad eyesight and fell in love with peacocks. They used to forget about it. They were too lazy to eat, but now they let the peacocks go to the orc territory. "Don't you two want to live?"

"Clan leader, don't be angry, that's what Diao Ming and his brother are like. They like peacocks very much.

They even cut their faces and threatened Diao Ming.

" Kong Xingxing, who hadn't been back for several years, thought he was dead outside, suddenly came back and said there was a big disaster. "

"Clan leader, not only our clan, but also many people from the other three clans have escaped."

The Diao Ren clan leader became even more angry when he heard this. , "I don't care about the other tribes. The other tribes are lazy and disobedient. In the past few years, our Diao people have been number one among the four tribes. Now the two siblings sneaked out..."

The other three tribes are also discussing. Listening to Kong Xingxing's words and running to the orc territory, this matter is really - enough to say for a long time, the clan leader is very angry/the family is very angry, how come they are fascinated by the peacocks.

"When they come back, we must teach them a lesson!"

"Drive the peacocks back to Peacock Mountain!"

"Yes."

"Even if there is a disaster, we have wings."

"Yes, yes."

On this day , the sky was very gray, and it was a very peaceful day, no different from usual - maybe a little colder. All the feathered tribes were chatting in their treehouses on the top of the mountain, or hatching eggs, without any sense of imminent disaster. arrival.

At first, the mountain was very quiet, surprisingly quiet, except for the chirping of birds.

Then a tree that was hundreds of years old fell down. The leader of the Diao Ren clan heard the noise and came out, and was about to ask his clansmen to go see what was going on. He saw a cry of surprise, and a blue wall surged over the continuous high mountains. It was higher and bigger than the mountains -

"Sea water!"

"It's really sea water!"

The mountain at the foot cracked and fell into pieces. Some feathered people were unable to react in time and fell in. They flapped their wings and tried to fly out, but they were followed by the falling trees above, which fell heavily. They hit their wings and bodies, sending them into the abyss.

Or the seawater pours back into their mouths, and the cold and salty seawater pours into their mouths. They can't even change into a bird shape, and they are buried under the seawater under the huge impact pressure.

The treehouse fell down, with the Featherman's wings tied up.

On the top of the mountain where the sea water had not yet reached, the sky smashed into the boulders and burned into a raging fire. The tribesmen who were still joking just now, saying that they believed in the peacock and left the tribe, were stupid. In an instant, the four tribes were engulfed by fire and water, leaving only a few Yumen hovering in the air, shocked.

They waved their wings, held in their claws or mouths babies that could not yet fly or had immature wings. They tried their best to find a place to stay, but what they saw below was...the blue and cold sea, the burning The forest, the ground that looked like a gaping mouth of a giant beast...

Kong Xingxing and the others were actually right.

Where to go - yes, Snow Deer Mountain, but where is Snow Deer Mountain?

Where is Snow Deer Mountain?

The feathered people were in deep despair.

...

I don't know how many days have passed. It's been a blur, and it's snowing heavily again. But Zhuo Yan can't feel the coldness. His consciousness is still very clear, but because he can't tell the passage of time, the sky has not revealed a trace of light for a long time, as if The sun disappeared, and only stone balls carrying fire hit the ground. Wherever they went, there was a sea of ​​fire.

They were on the top of the mountain, leaning down and looking down. The unclear chasm on the ground seemed to swallow everything. The top of the mountain was swaying, and there was a possibility of collapse. At first, the big guys would scream in fear, but time passed. Over time, it slowly became numb and empty.

Like... they won't survive either.

Zhuo Yan touched the heads of the cubs and said, "Eat something."

"Dad, will the sun come out?" Zhuo Buhe asked with dark eyes.

Zhuo Yan agreed, and then said: "Yes. In the dream, the sun will shine in."

The world seems to be torn down and reorganized. The first day, the tenth day, the thirtieth day... maybe only a few days, the world It remained dark, sometimes very cold, sometimes burning and very hot -

the mountain beneath them seemed to be on fire.

Everyone was holding on in despair, with nowhere to go at this time.

"Eat something." Zhuo Yan licked his lips and stood up, "It's not cold now, so we can share some food by the light of the fire."

The numb and empty people, hearing Zhuo Yan's voice, seemed to be wound up, and they were a little lively. They all looked at Zhuo Yan - their eyes lit up little by little, as if they were looking at gods, pious and obedient. .

Ah Yin called the orc sub-orc who was relatively calm to share the food.

There wasn't much food for everyone, so we ate slowly and cuddled up with the people we were closest to. Because it was too hot, we hadn't drank water for a long time, and our throats were a little hoarse. It was even harder to swallow the raw food in our hands, but every time Everyone is eating.

"We will survive." Zhuo Yan said slowly.

He was also very tired and thirsty, and his throat was about to smoke.

I don't know how long it took, but when everyone felt desperate that they were about to be roasted, the fire went out and a hint of coolness came. Everyone licked their dry and flaky lips, trying to save their energy and no one spoke.

The world fell into darkness.

It was as if they had never been here before, and this land and continent had not given birth to any life. Zhuo Yan moved his fingers, and the person behind him gently and slowly wrapped his hand with his big hand. Zhuo Yan raised the corners of his lips and smiled with difficulty.

He has been here, Ah Yin is here, and so are the children.

It's just that he was so tired, his body was numb and exhausted, Zhuo Yan slowly fell into sleep. After an unknown period of time, Zhuo Yan was woken up by the cold, and it was snowing again. He raised his eyes too much, and Ah Yin called him softly.

"Brother, it's snowing. We can drink some water."

Ah Yin held a ball of snow and fed it to her brother's lips. Zhuo Yan struggled to open his mouth and held it hard. His tongue was numb from the cold and he could not feel the temperature. But soon, with the soft and soft fur in his arms and his bright eyes that were not black, Zhuo Yan felt the world.

They are still there.

"Is anyone still there?"

Zhuo Yan's voice was low and weak but loud at the dark and quiet mountaintop.

Slowly, one after another, 'I am', 'I am also', 'We are still alive'...

Hawa, Aunt Carol's voice, Qiao, Xiaoxian, Kong Xingxing, Shitou, Aman... A Tou, Ah Hui, Sang Long, Aoun...the voices of the werewolf, the voice of the feathered man...

are all still there.

They were in the dark, and the firewood they had picked up earlier sparked the first sparks. Soon the fire started, illuminating the faces of the people on the top of the mountain. Everyone's face was pale from the cold, their eyelashes were stained with frost, their bodies were wrapped in temper, and they were holding their loved ones. .

There's not much food left.

"Eat some, and let's keep going," Zhuo Yan said.

Everyone in the ice and snow was a little stiff from the cold, but at this time, their eyes were burning, all falling on Zhuo Yan -

"We will survive. In the dream, the sun breaks through the darkness, and the sky will light up."

The firewood was used up, and the light gradually extinguished.

Zhuo Yan leaned against A Yin, hugged the cubs, stroked the hair of the three of them, and felt the beating power of A Yin's heart behind him. The orcs had long been transformed into human forms, which could reduce food consumption. Zhuo Yan touched Kangkang, only Kangkang was still in animal form.

Hang in there.

When he closed his eyes, he thought about the tooth pigs he brought home. These two were very smart, and he didn't know where they went. These days were messy and dark. Several snow deers died. Some people had eaten them, and some had eaten them. Sleeping in the body of the snow deer, the tooth pig disappeared.

...

The snow stopped.

At the very end, after who knows how many days, the first ray of dawn broke through the darkness, illuminated on the top of the mountain, and then spread, spreading every inch of light to every corner of this reorganized new world.

It was completely bright.

Chapter 112

On this day, those who survived may never forget the scene before them in their lifetime. The orange sun shines on the earth, and the soil that was once blackened by fire suddenly emerges with some green, looking so soft and beautiful in the sunshine.

Although, this land is very quiet.

Although, the damage scars can still be seen.

But the sunshine is so warm and full of life.

"What is that..." someone asked, pointing in the distance, with a hint of trembling fear in his voice.

After the disaster, everyone is still a little skeptical about unfamiliar things.

Zhuo Yan looked at that direction, "It seems to be the sea." It was very far away and could only see traces of blue 'lines'. When he thought of that direction, he couldn't help but be silent for a moment, not 'as if', but definitely it was. There used to be the location of the Lion Clan and the Feather Man.

Now it is covered by the sea.

blue ocean.

All the covered hillside grasslands were swallowed up by the sea water.

When the werewolf cub heard the word "sea", the eyes on his numb face came alive a little, with a hint of curiosity. It turns out that this is the sea, the sea that Zhuo Yan's brother once said.

"Let's go, we are looking for a new home." Zhuo Yan looked at everyone, with haggard, fearful, numb, and empty faces. He smiled, and said in a soothing yet firm tone: "We survived. There will be a new home."

After a long time, those numb faces had new expressions, and they came to life, hugging their relatives and crying with joy.

Snow Deer Mountain has grown a lot, and the gap at the bottom is gone. Instead, there are layers of gray stones piled up, from low to high, like a stone mountain, with only a few trees at the top that are still green.

They came down from the top of the mountain.

Helping each other, the 'hate' between the Eagle and the Tiger seemed to have disappeared at this time. Now they have become a new whole, having experienced the life and death of the world, they are more harmonious.

Zhuo Yan weighed the gray stones. Some of these stones were huge or small. In some dark corners, where the sun could not be found, they still exuded the familiar transparent light green color. The weight in his hand also told him that these gray stones were transparent. Stone.

...This continent has been reorganized and reborn, and it seems that it still retains the gentleness of the past.

They took stock of the remaining food—not much. The seeds are still there.

"Clan leader, where are we going next?"

Even the tiger man Hawa looked at Zhuo Yan, waiting for Zhuo Yan to give orders.

The direction of the Lion Man and the Feather Man turned into the sea, while the direction of the Werewolf and Leopard Man left the scorched earth hills and plains. Zhuo Yan quickly made a judgment and moved to the north of the Snow Deer Mountain with the Snow Deer Mountain as the boundary.

To be honest, they haven't been to the north because it used to be very cold here. The orcs said that the north is even colder. It's the territory of brown bears. It's a primeval dense forest with snow that never melts all year round. The ground is cold and hard. The orcs can barely survive. Support for some days, but sub-orc cubs wouldn't survive there.

"Go to the north." Zhuo Yan said.

The orcs knew what was going on in the north before, but no one raised any objections now. They believed in Zhuo Yan - if it weren't for the clan leader, they wouldn't have survived.

The orcs turned into animal shapes, and they were all skinny and bones. Everyone was very hungry, but soon, they encountered many burnt animal carcasses on the way to the north. They couldn't tell what they were. Fortunately, the weather was still very cold. , those corpses had their burnt exteriors cut open, but the meat inside was barely enough to satisfy their hunger.

No one disliked it, no one found it disgusting, and the orcs ate it happily.

Zhuo Yan and the sub-orcs will also eat, that kind of mechanical eating in order to survive. In fact, there is no sense of 'good or bad' at all, or they will chew some grass roots along the way.

The migrating army barely survived the first seven days of the new world relying on these corpses. They found the location of their new home, because Zhuo Yan discovered that everyone was still a little scared and didn't want to be too far away from Snow Deer Mountain.

In fact, so is he.

Ah Yin led the other three tribes of orcs, as well as the feathered men flying in the sky, to survey the surrounding terrain, water sources, mountains, etc. Zhuo Yan led his tribe to temporarily stop and settle down four days north of Snow Deer Mountain.

The orcs couldn't run anymore.

After Ah Yin and the others ran back from all directions and talked about the terrain in detail, Zhuo Yan drew on the ground and checked with the 'survey soldiers' one by one. Finally, the location of the new home was decided -

the current location is half a day to the southwest, there is a river There are lakes with abundant water resources, suitable for irrigation and planting, and there are also some moderately beautiful and rolling mountains - the Yuren came back and said that some of those mountains are black.

Zhuo Yan thought it was burnt at first. Everything here was burnt.

He would think now that it is nice to have mountains and water. If the winter is too cold, they can live in a cave. In short, it is grasping with both hands. He plans to build a house.

So the position was quickly determined that day - everyone believed in his judgment. At this time, Zhuo Yan did not have any heavy responsibility. It seemed that after facing life and death, he was more courageous than before, less hesitant and very decisive.

If everyone trusts him, then he will move. It is very efficient.

After walking to the southwest for most of a day, we finally saw the place A Yin and the others were talking about - there is a big river due west of here, from north to west. This river is very wide and flows southwest, possibly converging with the sea. .

Because the river is wide and has forked river basins, they can settle down by picking up the forked creeks.

Yuren could overlook it from the air, and Zhuo Yan passed it one by one. The more he finally drew it, the more suitable it was for building a home. The forked rivers passing through these basins could be used as moats. The center of the moat was a plain, very vast, and could be used for building residential addresses.

There are also some lakes in the central area, which are scattered, and the mountains are on both sides of the main river in the southwest. The most important thing is that there are trees lying sideways here. They look like giant trees that are hundreds or thousands of years old. Many of them have not been burned down.

Whether it is building a house or burning firewood for heating, it is enough.

And lush wild grasses have sprouted on the soil, indicating that the soil is very suitable for farming.

So the group settled down.

Zhuo Yan began to divide the work, "Qiao Aman, you take twenty people and start burning charcoal. Dan Ada, you take thirty orcs to get the gray stones, and the first group will burn the tools first."

It only takes three and a half days from here to Snow Deer Mountain . distance, when carrying heavy loads.

He said, Khajiit standing in the front row.

Hawa said: "Zhuo Yan, you make the arrangements. We all listen to you. You tell us what to do."

"Okay, I can't name some of the tiger men. Sanglong calls once and two yellows. The three of you pick people and follow them. Dan and

his party went to move the transparent stone, and thirty people moved the wood to the location I painted. You can teach everyone how to repair the stone, and we are going to build a house. , we need to teach the other three tribes of sub-orcs how to cultivate seeds as soon as possible. The remaining half of the orcs first use stone knives to reclaim the wasteland. All the feathered people, except the cubs, look for roots and some grass growing in the soil. Rats, bring back everything you can eat."

These tasks were done separately and at the same time.

Zhuo Yan determined the land for cultivation, which was close to the 'moat'. The soil in the small river basin there was moist and fertile - the weeds grew more vigorously than elsewhere.

Their situation was not particularly bad, because not only did they survive, there were fish in the river. When Qiao Aman led people to burn transparent farm tools, the missing tooth pig father and son came back with a group of small animals.

They are very thin and small, and they are all still calves. There are herbivores such as tusked pigs, horned sheep, and reindeer - of course they cannot be carnivores. How could the tusked pigs and their son dare to encounter carnivores? They would definitely turn around and leave far away.

But in the face of these little animal cubs.

Zhuo Yan: ...

Then he drooled and said, "Don't touch them yet, just keep them."

He still explained, "When they multiply and give birth to more, we can eat them in the future, no matter how hungry we are." It's the same as not eating seeds. Eating seeds can only fill your stomach temporarily, but there will be no food in the future."

Not to mention the sub-orcs, even the orcs laughed.

"Chief, don't worry, we won't eat them no matter how hungry we are."

"They don't have much meat, and it's too little."

With so many orcs and those few cubs, nibbling them will only arouse more appetite. Hungry.

But because Yazhu brought back more than a dozen cub survivors, Zhuo Yan felt that besides them, there should be other survivors on this continent - maybe they could all survive on the top of Snow Deer Mountain, and not all of them could survive. It depends on fate whether you go there or not.

Nine out of ten will die, but one or two can survive.

Following Yazhu's reminder, Zhuo Yan asked the Yuren who were out looking for food to search for places where trees collapsed in the forest. As expected, they found some corpses and some surviving prey.

They lived on fish, roots, wild vegetables, and wild fruits.

The land was cultivated, the seeds were sprinkled, and a few drizzles fell during the period. This was surprising to the leopard and the werewolf, because it only rained in the rainy season before, and the rain was not like this - thin and soft. Soft and small, it doesn't even look like rain.

Zhuo Yan continued the drizzle, and after being stunned, he had a suspicion in his mind, just like he had to build a house in a certain location, rather than dig a hole in the mountain - these few rains have been corroborated.

The weather has also changed, and winter will be less cold for a while.

It was winter when they were in Snow Deer Mountain, where day and night were indistinguishable, with cold and warm alternating. Although the days were like years, it was hard to tell the time. When the first light came down, it was like spring.

The whole process couldn't have lasted 130 days - the snow season used to last more than three months, but in previous years it had been extended to more than four months. The food they brought couldn't last more than 130 days, and they would definitely starve to death.

And they survived and waited until spring.

Winter has shortened and is not as cold. Zhuo Yan once felt numb from the cold on the top of the mountain. It was because he had been exposed to the outdoors for a long time and had not eaten a full meal for a long time. The body heat gradually disappeared, and he felt numb from the cold.

If the winter temperatures were really high in the past, people would have frozen to death.

That's why he talked about building a house - to save his life, there were mountains nearby.

These days were very difficult, everyone was careless and had to work. The little animal cubs brought back by Yazhu were also skinny and timid, but these little animals ate grass and were happier than them.

Zhuo Yan asked Zhuo Le to take the cubs to free the small animals.

"Whether we can eat a lot of meat in the future depends on you."

When Zhuo Le and others heard this, they patted their chests and promised that no one would be missing! He must be fat and fat, dad/patriarch, don't worry.

There is a big pie hanging in front of everyone's eyes, and things will definitely get better in the future.

Zhuo Yan said, there is food in the fields, there are groups of small animals, and there will be a lot of meat to eat.

With this breath, everyone spent day after day, their bodies were thin but their spirits were strong, and their eyes were not empty and numb. Of course, after the seeds were sown in the ground, Zhuo Yan also asked A Yin and the werewolf orcs to go back to each tribe separately to look for food.

The Leopard Man tribe was on the ground, but there were some smashed Dudu fruits on the ground. Regardless of whether they were good or bad, they picked them up and took them back. The werewolf tribe had become a basin. It had accumulated water after rain, like a lake. There was no food to be found. It was as if no one had ever lived here.

The werewolves stood there with red eyes for a long time. Finally, they wanted to wipe away their tears, but found that there were no tears. They looked up at the sky, and then said: "Go back, it's time to go back."

Go home, their new home.

Houses were built, three large factories centered on two lakes in the city. Everyone lived together for the time being. Everyone spent the first difficult spring. When the grain in the fields was ripe, there was something in the air. The taste of peanut, yellow rice and mung bean food.

During the harvest, on their day, everyone opened up and ate, the first full meal.

After that, the grains were dried, put into rattan baskets, and stacked in half the room. Food is still in short supply, and they will still have to grow food and build houses in the second half of the year.

There is a lot of rain in summer and it is muddy everywhere, but what can be seen with the naked eye is that the trees and vegetation that were half dead after being chopped down have become more stable and rejuvenated after half a year of breathing and self-healing.

When the rain stopped, everyone started sowing separately, planting the seeds first.

Zhuo Yan began to plan the residential area based on the current location of the 'three large factories'. The orcs were huge, so the remaining streets should be wide. Now they would gather the dormitories and put the collective things - the area at the door was open and empty, and it could be used as a square for later exposure. For food.

"... there are one hundred and seventy-four tiger men, one hundred and thirty-two leopard men, fifty-six lion men, forty-three werewolves, and thirty-eight feather men. We now have a total of four hundred and forty-three people. "

Before, Zhuo Yan said 'moat' and a city was still to be built. Now looking at the number of people, this is not a proper village. So after the tasks were distributed, Zhuo Yan said: "The new home doesn't have a name yet, let's call it...Hundred Beasts Village. "

The name of the new tribe is quite nice." "We have more than 400 people. Why should we

call it the Village of 440 people?"

What does the patriarch say?"

"Hahaha, I'm just asking, and I don't mean to refute the patriarch."

"What is a village?"

Zhuo Yan said with a smile, "The village is our home, and I am the village chief. After building a house, there will be more and more houses in the future. The roads surrounding the house are streets, which can be called Werewolf Street, Tiger Street... Peacock Street, Golden Head Street..."

Every tribesman who was named had a smile on their face. They looked happy, and now they lived together, but they still had the street names of their own tribe, especially the feather people were the happiest. They were so stunned that they almost cried. The Yingren and Diaoren didn't expect that they also had streets.

Now they are looking forward to the clan - no, the future that the village chief said.

The titles of the clan leaders of each clan are still retained. After all, there are more people in the clan, and the clan members understand the clan's character better. Zhuo Yan controls the general direction and handles the work. There are five clan leaders: Hawa, Ayin, Gehu, Xiaowo, and Kong Xingxing.

The Yuren clan is all under the control of Kong Xingxing.

The clan leader is now just like the team leader, dividing the work among others, whose personality is suitable for what, and who is good at what.

Work in the second half of the year: kiln factory, house building, and preparation for weaving.

Kong Xingxing was still in charge of weaving and cultivating ramie fields and cotton. He had feather men under him, as well as orcs such as Ma Ha and Ah Zong. In the first half of the year, Qiao and the others burned farm tools, and in the second half of the year, work in the fields became more efficient and convenient.

It's too late to plant cotton this year, so plant ramie first.

Compared with the first half of the year, which was difficult and everyone was thinner, life in the second half of the year was much easier. With some free time, Zhuo Yan and A Yin ran to the Kuanhe River - it took about half a day, almost two or three hours. There were rolling mountains over there, and then he discovered coal? !

"Yuren said the dark mountains?"

"Yes, brother." A Yin nodded.

Zhuo Yan looked at the large, continuous black coal mountains behind the mountains - he always thought they were black because of the burnt soil, after all, looking down from the air.

"Brother, is this useful?"

"It's very useful." A smile appeared on Zhuo Yan's face, and his eyes were bright, "I asked Qiao to burn charcoal because charcoal is high-temperature and resistant to burning, but this coal is naturally formed "It is more resistant to burning than charcoal and has a higher temperature."

He suddenly thought of something - that disaster, the whole world's land rolled and cracked and was reshaped, turning things deep in the ground to the top, just like coal, which was originally underground. , that salt pan in the mammoth territory? And the iron mines of the Lion Tribe?

The gray stone Snow Deer Mountain is an example.

Although there is the sea to the south, they don't have to worry about eating salt. There is also a wide river that leads to the sea. If they are free in the future, they can make a boat to find it.

This continent still looks a little empty and thin on the surface. Only half of the original dense forest is left, and there are many fewer animals. But! If he follows his inference, there are many more resources that were unknown before.

They need to discover them one by one.

It is not necessarily the case that only the Lion Tribe has iron ore, there may be some somewhere.

Zhuo Yan's eyes were too bright. Ah Yin gently touched his brother's eyelids, and the smile that couldn't be suppressed at the corner of his mouth was not because of the coal, but because - "

It sounds like our life will get better and better, brother."

"Yes!"

Zhuo Yan touched A Yin's thin face, "We will get better and better."

Brother and sister Zhuo Kang and Zhuo Le were carrying Bu Hei on their backs, and the three of them were walking around with other friends. Little Master Zhuo Le He said, "Let's go and see somewhere else."

"Are the village chief and the clan chief on a date?"

Zhuo Buhei was not shy and said happily, "Let's go quickly, as long as you know, don't disturb my father and my father's date." "

Everyone ran very fast and went to other places to roll and play on the grass.

The coal here is in the form of large rocks, which are dug and transported. After Zhuo Yan finished talking about the role of coal, everyone was obviously relieved and even happier, "So even if it snows heavily in winter, it will be very warm."

"Great!"

Zhuo Yan smiled slightly, "Don't you feel that now? The climate is different from before."

"Yes, it rains in spring, and it rains from time to time when the weather is hot. It's not like it only rained in the rainy season before."

"It's not that hot anymore

, village chief . Isn't winter as cold as before?"

Zhuo Yan: "I guessed that the snow season is shorter."

"Is that why you asked us to build a house?"

Zhuo Yan smiled. "If it's cold, we can dig a hole. The hole can be dug very quickly."

Everyone admired the village chief even more, because they just came down from Snow Deer Mountain when they were building the house. The village chief thought so long-term, what else could he do? I thought of it all!

In the first year, not every household had a house to live in. Only fifteen houses were built, and most people still lived in the "big factory" for the winter.

Before winter came, there was the joy of harvest. The trees turned yellow, and the trees in the mountains along the Kuanhe River grew Dudu fruits, but the Dudu fruits were very small. There were also sub-orcs who dug potatoes, sweet potatoes, and konjac there.

Konjac has a very big root. The sub-orcs looked at it and thought, although they didn't recognize it, they should be able to eat it, right? So I ate some, and then - I was slightly poisoned, vomited and had stomach pain.

"Konjak is poisonous." Zhuo Yan said, and asked Asu to boil a pot of mung bean soup and give it to the sub-orc to induce vomiting and excretion.

However, the sub-orcs were in good health, and they didn't care about their stomachache. They looked at such a large piece of konjac with regret, "It's such a big thing that it's poisonous. What a pity." "

It's edible." Zhuo Yan knew that he had been hungry in the first half of the year. Even now, no one dares to open their mouths to eat. They immediately said: "Konjak can be washed, peeled, pounded in a stone pot and ground into a paste, added with alkaline water, and then steamed for a longer time."

"Collect it first ." Come on, I'll teach you."

The sub-orcs were very happy, because there were all of them. These things were very big.

In addition to the bumper harvest of crops in the fields, many edible treasures have been dug up in the jungles on the mountainside. There are no potato seeds in their village. Now the potatoes, sweet potatoes, taro, and konjac harvested in the wild have to find ways to save seeds. They will not eat them this year. Now, sow the seeds next year.

After this busy autumn harvest, the weather gets colder day by day, the grass turns yellow, and the leaves on the trees wither and fall. Zhuo Yan saw the leaves falling and said, "It's winter."

Shitou and the others were stunned for a moment, "Is it winter?"

"Brother Zhuo Yan, is it winter?"

"Ah?" Aman was also confused.

They looked at each other and then asked the other orcs, "Do you feel cold?"

"It's a bit cold but okay. Are you cold?"

"It's not cold."

"The village chief said it's winter."

The orcs :ah?

Is it winter for a werewolf, a leopard, and a werewolf? ? ? But when asked about the lion man, the lion man thought for a moment and said that it seemed a little cold, but it wasn't winter yet. Or Yuren said it's winter, don't you feel cold?

Tiger, Leopard and Wolf, who carried a lot of coal: ...

Zhuo Yan has lived in this continent for so long that he has forgotten the modern winter climate. However, compared with the climate of the previous Leopard tribe, this will be like early autumn, but the leaves on the trees are all... Now that the fall is over, it's already the beginning of winter, right?

He also began to be unable to judge whether it was winter or not.

A week later, snowflakes began to fall in the sky. At first, people still felt like they were facing a formidable enemy. After all, they didn't have much leather left and the ones they used were a bit old. Everyone could only light a stove in the house and burn coal to keep warm. They also needed ventilation to prevent the coal from burning. Poisoned - what the village chief said.

But even though it's snowing, not to mention the orcs, even Xiaoxian and several sub-orcs are still going out wearing old cotton-padded clothes or leathers, because it's not cold at all.

For the previous winters of the Leopard Man tribe, the snow and the climate temperature were really not cold. Qiao was also in a trance and couldn't make up his mind, "Wait a little longer, go to the kiln to make pottery now, in case a blizzard comes and you get trapped there."

Xiao Xian and the other sub-orcs couldn't rest anymore:...Okay, Qiao said It also makes sense.

The feathered people are afraid of the cold. They turned into their original shape and huddled in their skins. The coal stove was lit in the house and they were ready to spend the winter. However, the light snow stopped after two days. The bird-shaped ones that originally turned into bird-like shapes hesitated. After a while, he turned into a human again and sat by the stove to warm himself.

It seems... the figure is warmer sitting here on the stove.

"Come on, stop shrinking." "

The stove is really warm."

"The village chief is so smart. How did he use yellow clay to make such a useful stove."

"The village chief is very smart to begin with. "

Do you want some peanuts?"

"Eat it slowly."

The Yu people ate peanuts around the stove, eating slowly, chatting, and talking about work. The clan leader said that next year they would grow ramie and weave cloth, and life would definitely be better next year than this year.

"I want to have a house next year."

"That's for sure. There will be less construction this year, but the speed is getting faster and faster. The village chief said that we will all have a house to live in next year."

The orcs stood under the eaves and frowned. He frowned and looked at the sky.

It's winter, and the snow has stopped.

They were confused, was it winter?

Another week passed, and the weather became colder, with light snow falling from time to time. Looking around, the snow in the village was already up to the ankles. Zhuo Yan was silent.

What kind of snow is this! ! !

In the past, after the first snowfall in winter, the snow would reach the ankles in less than a day. Now, according to his records, it has been twenty-eight days since the leaves withered and the grass turned yellow. It has been 28 days since the first snowfall. Sixteen days.

"Dad, I want to go and play with Blizzard!" Zhuo Buhei asked his father if that was okay.

Zhuo Yan originally wanted to say, "How about you guys?", but he stood outside watching the snow for a long time, his hands and feet were warm, so he was silent for a second, "Go, go, don't run too far, just Playing in the village."

"I know, Dad." Zhuo Buhei was happy.

Zhuo Kang roared softly, meaning that he would take good care of his younger brother. Zhuo Le turned into an animal shape and asked Zhuo Buhei to come up. Zhuo Buhei ran away in a hurry, "Sister, here we come."

The cubs went out to play, playing in the snow and having snowball fights in the streets of the village. After a while, Zhuo Yan could hear the little ones laughing at the top of their lungs. In addition to Zhuo Buhei and the others, other cubs also joined in.

Zhuo Yan looked at A Yin, "Is this winter?"

"...It's snowing, it should be."

Leopards, tigers, and werewolves still didn't dare to relax about winter, and even experienced orcs and lions and feathered men didn't dare to relax about winter. Pass on experience, for example: Even if it's not cold now, you won't be able to go out in a month, or your ears will fall off from the cold.

The snow is deeper than you and I combined.

When the lion and the feathered man heard this, they were frightened. Is it so cold? They wouldn't go out for a few days.

As a result... lions, tigers, and werewolves waited and waited. The snow stopped, the sun came out, and the snow on the ground melted and became muddy, and then the withered yellow grass revealed small green shoots.

Zhuo Yan: "Spring is here."

Huh? !

The leopard, tiger, and werewolf were all confused.

Just...that's it? Is the snow season over?

Zhuo Yan was so happy that he painted the days on the wall, from the time when the trees fell leaves to when the weather warmed up - there were only fifty-three days from early winter to early spring, and from the first snow to the last snow, it was only about twenty days.

The coldest period only lasts for most of the month - and it's not cold at all. It can't be said that it's not cold, but for people with furry genes, who knows this snow season – the spring breeze in winter!

The entire winter is less than two months old.

Zhuo Yan couldn't hold back his lips.

Chapter 113

Spring is here and all things are born.

The snow melted, the land thawed, the river gurgled, and the wind still had a hint of coolness - the feathered people felt it was still a bit cold, and preferred to go out and fly in bird form, but it was not to the point of being frozen.

The orcs were happy.

"It doesn't feel like winter at all. It's warmer than the month before."

"It's so cold. It's really strange."

"Is this going to be like this in the next snow season?"

"This is great. I see the village His face was full of smiles."

"Hahaha, I heard from the Leopard, Werewolf and Tiger that it was very cold. I also moved a lot of coal into the house, but it turned out it wasn't cold at all." The Lion Tribe laughed.

Qiao and others went to the kiln factory, still wearing leather skirts and waistcoats. They walked quickly. They met other orcs on the road, and they all walked and chatted together.

"The village chief said that if we burn more bricks this year, we will all have houses in our village."

"I think it's good too. After the house is built, small bits and pieces will be added slowly." "It

's not cold at all in the snow season."

"I haven't yet. I've seen snow like this

before." "I knew we could work in winter." What kind of snow season is this little snow? A whole winter was wasted. She thought in her mind and said, "Waiting for this winter, we can transport coal early and burn some household items in the winter, such as pots and bowls. Transparent bowls, buckets, etc. can be used to bake bricks and dry them when the weather is hot."

"Okay."

The ramie in the field is growing very well. There is no need to patch it after a winter, and it will be harvested in another month. Kong Xingxing began to think about building a factory, and he chose a location in the middle of a ramie field and a cotton field. There was also a textile machine to be built.

In the past few years, the Peacock clan has been weaving and spinning. If the machine breaks down, it needs to be repaired. Kong Xingxing and several other people know how to make a loom. When the loom is ready, we must call all the clansmen who know how to weave. .

"If there are straw poles suitable for weaving in the bamboo forest, you can bring them back, or bring some grass seeds..." Kong Xingxing told the Yu people.

The orcs carried coal, moved transparent stones, and moved and chopped trees to build houses. These were laborious tasks. The village chiefs of the four orc tribes divided the labor and cooperated as before, and began to work according to the residential areas designated by the village chiefs.

Those who transported, dug foundations, and moved bricks.

The whole village is thriving and full of vitality.

Then Maha found the village chief, scratching his head and feeling a little embarrassed.

Zhuo Yan originally thought that Kong Xingxing had called Ma Ha over. The ramie and cotton fields were too big and there were not enough manpower, but he was wrong. The cotton had not been planted yet, and the ramie was about to be harvested. Yuren, together with Kong Xingxing and six others, Shitou, Maha, and Ah Zong are all over forty people.

To say that feathered men are weak is only compared to orcs, and doing farm work is trivial.

Moreover, there are not actually many fields for ramie and cotton.

"Village Chief, I want to ask you to witness the marriage between Xiao Lu and me." Maha was very happy. "Originally we thought about it last year, but Xiao Lu said that the village is so busy and everyone doesn't have enough to eat, so it's better not to bother. Today, he suddenly came to me and asked me if I wanted to be a partner, so I came to find you, the village chief. I want to be a partner with Xiaolu!"

Zhuo Yan:...! ! !

"Congratulations to both of you."

Ma Ha and Kong Lu had a shadow long before the disaster. Kong Lu initially treated Ma Ha with "courteous compliments," but then slowly began to be rude to Ma Ha. But he was very defensive in his behavior, and although Ma Ha was inexperienced in love, he was manipulated by Kong Lu.

Now that the disaster has passed, it is really natural for the two of them to get together.

As soon as Kong Lu said this, Maha rushed to find the village chief. Zhuo Yan was also very efficient and said directly: "Let's do it today. How about holding it this evening?"

"Okay! I'll tell Xiaolu." Maha ran away in a hurry.

On this day, when Maha met people, he said that he and Kong Lu were going to be partners, and everyone in the village sent them their blessings. Even after saying this, he suddenly thought that Kong Lu was a male and Maha was an orc. There should be no cubs between the two of them, right? But I quickly threw this thought out of my mind - what the hell, just be happy.

After the disaster, everyone has the determination to do whatever it takes and cherish the moment.

The feather people waved their wings everywhere to announce the good news, so that evening, the villagers gathered in front of the big factory square and lit a charcoal fire. There was no barbecue, only some mung bean soup and roasted peanuts to share, but everyone's face was beaming with joy.

Ma Ha and Kong Lu stood in front of the village chief.

There were no new clothes, so Maha was wrapped in an old leather skirt, with his upper body exposed - his waistcoat had holes all green, his face had been cleaned up, and there was a bloodstain on his chin, where he had scratched his skin because he was so excited about shaving. His hair was trimmed very short and neatly, and he had a silly grin on his face. Maha was actually quite handsome.

That kind of silly handsomeness.

Kong Lu is thin and has very fair skin, which is made even whiter by Maha. His hair is shoulder length, and his light green hair is a bit malnourished. In fact, everyone is the same, and they have had a hard time in the past two years.

But he was in good spirits and his eyes were sparkling.

The two were the first couple after the New World. Zhuo Yan looked at the two and was very happy. In the past, when the leader of their tribe witnessed the new couple, they would put a color on their foreheads - a kind of stone unique to Caojia that was ground and dried. , when it comes into contact with the skin, it looks red at first glance and a bit radiant under the moonlight at night, which is quite beautiful.

But not now.

Zhuo Yan could only let the two of them hold hands. He covered their hands and said, "I wish you peace, health, and happiness in the days to come, supporting each other, never leaving, and loving each other forever."

Then Maha and Kong Lu closed their doors. Eye.

At that moment, Zhuo Yan seemed to see spots of light scattered on Kong Lu and Maha's bodies. He murmured in a daze. Finally, when he came to his senses, Kong Lu and Maha looked at him. Zhuo Yan was confused and asked what happened?

"Village chief, you just wished us to have cubs soon, but we can't have cubs," Kong Lu said.

Maha said: "Hey hey hey, I hate cubs. Xiaolu, we don't have cubs. I don't like cubs, so that's good."

Zhuo Yan glanced at Maha, frowned and said: " I just saw a lot of light spots falling on you two, and I unknowingly said to have cubs early."

Now Kong Lu and Ma Ha were dumbfounded.

"What does the village chief mean?"

"Village chief -"

Zhuo Yan shrugged, "I don't know either. I just told you what I saw. Okay, the ceremony is over."

Everyone was curious, Shitou Xiaoxian came over, Ask Zhuo Yan/Brother Zhuo Yan if what he just said is true. Zhuo Yan nodded, "But don't ask me what I mean, because I'm not sure, I'm just talking."

"One is a male and the other is an orc, can they really have cubs?"

"I don't know."

" But Brother Zhuo Yan saw it."

"Is it the village chief's blessing?"

"I don't know."

Both Kong Lu and Maha were stunned, but soon they ignored it and happily accepted everyone's blessings. Everyone sat together and ate roasted peanuts around the charcoal fire. The orcs missed it for a while. In the days of meat, I don't know when I can eat meat.

"Where are those cubs? They are the pig-horned sheep."

"In the village, Lele and the others let them out to graze every day, and they don't know when they will be able to eat them."

"We are waiting for them to grow up and give birth to more babies."

" When will we be able to have four hundred children?"

After Kong Lu and Maha's wedding, the rest of the day went on as usual, doing whatever they had to do. When the weather warmed up and cotton was planted, everyone in the village spent most of their time building houses. Everyone divided their yards again according to the residential areas circled by the village chief.

The village chief said that the place is very big, and anyone who wants to be close to anyone can choose a location. At present, the collective houses in the village are all one-room buildings. After everyone moves in, there will be enough time to find friends and clan members to expand.

Everyone was stunned for a while.

"More slowly, there will be more food in the future. If you want to dry meat, each family can grow something else in their own yard, or build a house for cooking stoves. Now the rain is not like the rainy season before, and it rains from time to time for cooking. You won't get wet..."

The village chief described the courtyard house as too beautiful.

Rows of houses are scattered in the Baishou Village near the lake water area, leaving open space for the future construction of yards. The tribesmen do not live together in a group, but - it is not Zhuo Yan's intention to break up, but individuals. choose.

Because, in the village, among the five tribes, some orcs, sub-orcs and feathered people fell in love with each other. Although they did not hold a pairing ceremony, it was sweet - because there were many leopards and tigers, some werewolves, lions, including feathered people, felt insecure and would more or less find love with orcs from the two tribes.

Then when the house comes down, and lots are drawn to move in, you will find a few feather people living together, and then scattered orcs, sub-orcs, or tigers and werewolves living together, living near the leopard people, and the leopard people live with the lion people. Live together.

Zhuo Yan: ...very good.

In fact, this way, we can deepen each other's understanding of the village as a collective and make management easier. Zhuo Yan thinks long-term. Life is hard now, there are not many resources, and there are no interests involved. You can still live in a collective life. When living conditions improve in the future, there will always be a transition from collective to private life. It is not good for clan members to stick together.

The village chief's home is not far from the lake, close to the big factory square. On one side are Stone Kong Xingxing and Amanda En, and on the other side are the homes of Qiao Ada, Xiao Xian and Xiao Wo.

As expected, room assignment can 'expose' some things.

For example, Xiao Xian and the werewolf Xiao Wo are together. Zhuo Yan was surprised, but Qiao seemed to understand. Zhuo Yan took a look and asked, "Did you guess it?"

"You can tell a little bit," Qiao said.

Shitou still had a shocked face.

Aman: "Xiao Xian, you are not Ge Hu..."

Zhuo Yan also nodded. He thought that Xiao Xian and Ge Hu would reconcile again after the disaster. Who knew that Xiao Xian came out completely? It was really unexpected. direction.

Sure enough, people all have their own ideas, which are very vivid.

"Xiao Wo has actually always liked Xiao Xian. He used to come to the market and often exchange things with us. He said he wanted to bring them to his aunt. In fact, he wanted to talk to Xiao Xian more." Qiao said.

Aman nodded and remembered, "But Xiao Xian said before that he regarded Xiao Wo as his younger brother."

"Not his biological brother." Shitou said.

Xiao Xian chuckled, "He was very small and thin at that time, just like Yu in our tribe. I didn't like him, but he was very funny." I

don't like the thin appearance, but his personality is very funny.

As for why I came out.

It's not that Gehu is bad, Gehu is strong, tall and handsome. It's just that in Gehu's heart, the first place is always the Lion Tribe and his people. After that disaster, the Lion Tribe didn't come to the whole country. Gehu blamed himself a lot. He is more concerned about the remaining clan members. For more than a year, Gehu will take the initiative to help if there is anything the lion people don't know.

Xiao Xian felt so tired being with Ge Hu.

"He always said that in the past, he said that the leader of the lion people should not bring people here first but should stay and persuade the leader. I don't know what to say. Brother Zhuo Yan, I don't want to think about the past. I want to think about the future." Xiao Xian is a very good person. Optimistic person.

If you can't change it before, it will become more and more painful if you indulge in it.

The situation of the werewolf tribe is also very tragic. Xiao Wo is still slim and looks very young. He is usually a bit stable in front of the tribe, but when he is with Xiao Xian, he is very childish.

"He would carry me on his back to dig into the tall grass, and the fur would make me itch. The last time I was burning pottery and transporting mud, I accidentally fell down and his tail was also stained with mud. I don't know how it started. The two of us We just threw mud at each other, and he would wipe my face." Xiao Xian's eyes were bright and happy when he said it.

It was obviously a bit embarrassing for me to fall down and get dirty with mud, but in the end I felt happy. He hasn't played like this for a long time.

In the past, when I fell in love with Gehu, I always talked about making pottery and weaving. This year, the lion tribe had summer cloth to wear and burned transparent stones. Of course, Gehu would also carry him to the mountains to pick berries, and they would also mate.

But later they became increasingly unhappy and they would quarrel.

Xiao Xian thought that they could live in the Leopard Tribe for a year and then go to the Lion Tribe, but Ge Hu was still hesitant - he thought that Ge Hu didn't seem to like him that much.

So it was Xiao Xianti's breakup. Then there were disasters, and then until now.

"I told Xiaowo that we won't be partners anymore and we will just live our lives like this," Xiaoxian said.

Zhuo Yan nodded, looking at Xiao Xian's mature face showing a bit of childish happiness in his youth, and said: "Happiness is the most important thing."

They live very close to each other, and the houses in the village are arranged in a checkerboard pattern, which will be convenient in the future. Canals are dug in front of every house and there is a sewerage system. Zhuo Yan also plans to build roads and smooth the roads in front of the village's houses in the future.

On this day, Zhuo Le, who was herding sheep, came back carrying Bu Hei on his back.

"Dad, dad, dad."

When Zhuo Yan heard this, he thought something had happened, and asked quickly: "What's wrong?"

"Dad, the horned sheep, the horned sheep has given birth to a baby."

Zhuo Le was gesticulating excitedly. , "Yes, Dad, come on, Dad, I will carry you over there to see, there are two lambs."

"Come on, let's go take a look." Zhuo Yan followed the children outside, and Yazhu and his son brought back thirteen lambs. He remembered that there were two horned sheep, but they were both male -

the cubs in the village were responsible for 'herding' the small animals in turn, driving thirteen small animals out to graze every day and returning thirteen small animals. A shed circle was built.

Just like when Zhuo Yan was fleeing, he said those over fifteen years old would follow him.

Kang Kang Le Le Bu Hei and the other three are fifteen this year. Zhuo Kang doesn't go to 'herding sheep' now - he thinks this is a job only for children, he will carry things and transport them. Of course, adults feel sorry for children of this age - they were cubs before.

It was harvesting ramie recently, and Kong Xingxing pretended to arrange work for his son Blizzard and Zhuo Kang: "You two are responsible for this piece, Blizzard, you cut it, let Kang Kang transport it, don't be too tired." "

I understand, Father." Blizzard said.

Shitou was still a little worried. When the two boys didn't move, Kong Xingxing took the big man's hand and said, "Don't worry, our Blizzard loves Zhuo Kang so much, and he is definitely not willing to put too much ramie on Zhuo Kang's back. "

"Xingxing, you are so smart." Shitou thought it was true.

Kong Xingxing was praised. If he had a tail, he would be able to stand tall. Sure enough, the stone looked at it for a while, and Blizzard put some of it into the rattan basket on Kangkang's back each time. Kangkang ran quickly and put it on the ground in the yard in front of the weaving house.

The two kids are great.

Zhuo Le Zhuo Bu Hei was reluctant to part with these little animals. Dad said that in the future, the horned cows would give birth to calves, and they would have endless prey. These would be their future prey.

In the job of 'herding sheep', Zhuo Le and Zhuo Buhei did their best and did not report to Zhuo Yan. They spontaneously arranged a place for the small animals and built a shed with the cubs.

The children didn't know about Zhuo Yan until they were halfway through building it. He went to see him and he did a good job.

Last year, Zhuo Le and his brother were only fourteen years old. With humanoid cubs in their teens, seven or eight years old, they moved wood and grooved, and their hands-on and organizational skills were very strong.

Not to mention this, when Zhuo Yan arrived, there was a horned sheep lying on the grass in the shed, and there were two wet lambs next to it.

The children in the village were very excited but did not dare to speak loudly.

"The village chief is here!"

Everyone moved aside to let the village chief see first. Zhuo Yan squatted there. He really remembered that the two horned sheep were male, and now, there were really two more newborn lambs. The little lambs lay under the big sheep and began to suck milk.

Zhuo Yan was in a daze for a moment, wondering if he had remembered wrongly last year?

But it was impossible. It was related to the future development of animal husbandry in the village. He really remembered it clearly, because he told Lelebuhei that there are one male and one female horned cows. Pay attention, because the horned cows will give birth to calves in the future. .

But now -

Zhuo Yan pulled the big sheep. He stretched out his hand, but the sheep didn't dare to move, so he let him look at it. Then Zhuo Yan saw that the horned sheep's balls were much smaller.

But there really is!

Zhuo Yan frowned, scaring the children watching nearby who were a little worried.

"Village Chief, is something wrong with the lamb?"

"Village Chief, isn't it good that the lamb has given birth to a baby?"

Zhuo Yan relaxed his brows and said to the children with a smile: "It's okay. I'm thinking of something else. You guys "Take care of them."

"I know, village chief!" "We will find the softest grass for the mother sheep to eat."

Zhuo Lezhuo followed, and the father and son ran. When they got outside, Zhuo Buhei said, "What's wrong with dad?"

"Dad must be wondering how a ram can give birth to a baby," Zhuo Le said.

Zhuo Buhei: "Yes, but daddy really gave birth. I saw it with my own eyes."

"How are the two horned cows doing?" Zhuo Yan asked.

Both children were stunned for a moment, but quickly answered - this is their job.

"The two of them fight every day.", "Yes.", "The female horned ox likes to ride on the male, and then the male wants to throw her off. Buhei and I have stopped her several times.", "Yes. "Ah, Dad."

Zhuo Yan and the two cubs looked at the horned cows together. From a distance, they could see two horned cows fighting. They wanted to ride the other one, but they wouldn't let each other, and then they used their horns to fight each other. Zhuo Le became He quickly rushed over in his beast form, roared, and the two horned cattle dispersed, but they were still a bit aggressive and refused to let anyone go.

"Lele, look at their butts - forget it, just let them stop and I'll take a look." Zhuo Yan ran over.

There were two horned cows, one male and one female last year, but now the female's horned cow had two eggs hanging vaguely under it, and the bull's balls were still there - it seemed that the two horned cows were evenly matched.

Zhuo Yan looked dazed.

"Dad, is the bull also going to give birth?"

"The cow seems to have eggs, so is it still a cow?"

Zhuo Yan: He couldn't answer the question.

The world seems to have changed so much.

He thought about the couple-making ceremony he had hosted for Maha and Kong Lu before, and saw the spots of light scattered on the two people's bodies - now he was more certain that if this was the case, life on this continent would soon flourish again.

There will be many more. At least that's what their village is like.

Sure enough, after the horned sheep gave birth to cubs, it was as if some production hormones had been sprinkled on the village. First, Xiao Xian found him and said that he seemed to have cubs, and then Kong Lu, Xia Shu...

Orcs and sub-orcs used to be together. It is difficult to have cubs, let alone cross-clan, but this year, they can only have cubs if they are united together.

Zhuo Yan was in a trance.

The first thought was that they were going to build more houses, plant more fields, and...

"Brother, if you think so, we can run out and look for prey." A Yin said.

Zhuo Yan nodded, "Call the Yumen, they can fly in the sky and see farther."

At the same time, in the deep sea south of Snow Deer Mountain, a group of mermaids swam over. This was a territory they had never been to. .

"Is this the place the Yu people said?"

"The Yu people said they live in the mountains. There are no mountains here."

"But we really swam for a long time."

"Let's go over and have a look."

"I don't know they are still alive . Well, there were a lot of fireballs falling from the sky that time, and the sea water became so hot." Ai Xi felt a little depressed when she said this. Many of her people died.

The companion said: "Don't think about it, Ai Xi, let's go there quickly."

But they all swam to the land, and there was no feathered man except for sand and rocks and some trees. Ai Xi and his companion sighed in disappointment, "Can't find it." We're at Yuren." " Ai

Xi, where are we going now?" "Well, let's go up and take a look. I don't want to go back." "Okay." north. Ah Yin took the orc hunting team out to try his luck and see if he could find some prey. The eagle flying in the sky screamed loudly. Ah Yin heard it, roared, and led the team in the direction where the eagle flew. "There is a brown bear." "Brown bear?" Ada and others were excited. A brown bear actually appears. This guy is so big. After they catch it, everyone in the village will be able to get a bite of its meat. The eagle flew for a while and screamed again. "Not one, there are more than ten." Ah Yin was a little confused. Logically speaking, there are so many brown bears, so they shouldn't have discovered them now. They've been here before. But the other orcs immediately became excited when they heard it, there were more than ten of them! Tigers and wolves roared one after another. It was great. The whole village, old and young, did not just eat a bite of meat, but had a hearty meal, quickly, quickly. The hunting team of the Hundred Beast Village ran north for four days in the second summer of the New World. They were very excited to meet seventeen brown bears. The brown bears were also very excited when they saw the hunting team. Both sides' eyes were red, and they were carrying murderous look. Then, a brown bear took out a bundle of vines. Ah Yin, who was in the lead, was shocked when he saw it. Then he landed in the air and turned into a human. He rolled around and landed dexterously in another place. Xiong Tian who took out the 'rope':? ah? Aww, aww, aww, aww, are you orcs too?

Chapter 114

The battle was about to begin, but it suddenly stopped.

The rope vines thrown by Xiong Tian fell to the ground, with a sharp stone tied to one end. Looking at the naked orc opposite, Xiong Tian also turned into a human form, and said blankly: "There are actually leopard men."

The hunting team behind Ah Yin: Ga.

Why are there still bears?

They have never seen it before - they have seen brown bears, but they can swear to the gods that the brown bears they hunted really cannot turn into humans.

"Ah Yin, what happened to him and them?" Ah Hui stepped forward and asked.

The tiger, lion, and wolf orcs are still very wary, but there is a bit of confusion in their wary eyes. Are there still bear people in this continent?

The two sides looked at each other for a while.

Ah Yin stood there and looked at the bear man - this bear man was about the same height as Maha and had a strong body, but his face was still very immature, as if he had just grown up or not yet, so he asked aloud: "Have you ever been there? Where are you from? I've never seen you before."

"We haven't seen the Leopard Man either," Xiong Tian said, taking a few steps back to block the younger brothers and sisters behind him, as well as the elderly and injured tribesmen, "You, you. What are we going to do?"

Ah Hui originally wanted to say: I originally wanted to kill you, but now it seems that it will definitely not work.

"You haven't answered my last question, where did you come from?" Ah Yin's tone was calm, but there was no room for negotiation. He looked at the brown bear behind the other party, "There are many of us, you answer first."

Xiong Tian looked at the other party. Behind the scenes, there are many leopards, lions, tigers, and wolves. If there was a fight - they were not opponents of each other, maybe he could beat one or two, but not his younger brothers, sisters and clan members.

"We are from the Brown Bear Tribe and we used to live in Gao Xiong Mountain."

Gao Xiong Mountain?

The hunting party looked at each other and didn't hear it at all. Ah Yin looked at the other party and thought about it. The bear opposite him pointed in the direction behind him as if he was afraid that they would not believe him. "Where -"

Ah Hui said, "Where? We have been there before, and there were no orcs."

"We still have I've never seen you before." Xiong Tian muttered.

An old and tired voice sounded from behind, "We have been walking for a long time, Xiaotian, please tell them."

"I know, Auntie." Xiong Tian looked at the leopard man opposite, and he didn't seem to be in a bad mood, so He said angrily: "We have been walking for more than a hundred days, and we have never been here before."

More than a hundred days? ! Ah Hui and others were surprised, their eyes widened.

No wonder they had never seen each other before.

In the past, further north here was the territory of bears. The weather was severely cold. The further north you went, the colder it became. The perennial glaciers and snowy mountains had no life at all. Not even bears could go there. No orc could run for more than a hundred days because they couldn't. Walking through the white snow and ice, I couldn't even find anything to eat.

"Is this all your clan members are left?" A Yin asked.

Xiong Tian shook his head, a little confused, "I don't know. We were separated from them. We wanted to find them, but we couldn't find them. We've been gone for so long."

"Hingdou, you fly back to the village first and tell This is about the village chief."

The eagle in the sky gave a loud cry and then flew away quickly.

Xiong Tian's eyes widened again when he saw a round little bear's head popping up from his back, chattering to his brother. Xiong Tian slapped the little bear's head with a big palm, stuffed it back, and told him to hide it behind his back. , don't move.

The little bear hid again.

Ah Yin saw the little bear, thought for a moment and said, "What did you eat all the way here?"

"Eat everything, whatever you encounter..." The more Xiong Tian said, the more puzzled his eyes became, and he glanced at the leopard man opposite. , "I haven't seen any leopards, tigers, lions, or wolves."

The orcs named behind Ah Yin:!

Are these bears still eating them? !

But then I thought again, they also ate bears before.

He also had a bearskin at home, which he took with him when he fled because it was very warm. Ada thought.

I have never encountered it before. Ah Yin understood, "Did you find any prey on the way here?"

"There was a rhinoceros and two deer. At the beginning, there was a big, big, unknown thing, like a mountain, in a pool of water. It's so hot that we haven't even finished it yet."

Xiong Tian said, clearly missing it. Behind him, two little bears showed half of their heads, their round ears moving.

Ah Yin: My heart is as solid as stone.

Fortunately, my brother is not here.

"The further you go here, the less prey you can eat." Xiong Tian said that he misses the prey very much, "We used to have crispy dragons there, which were very delicious, but our tribe is too small. If we hunt crispy dragons, The crispy dragon will also be robbed by the black bear tribe."

The two furry cubs raised their heads again and looked very angry. One of the cubs even stuck out his teeth, looking fierce and angry.

Ah Yin: ...calm.

Fortunately, my brother didn't come, but he should accept these bears.

Ah Yin was thinking a lot in his mind, and his face was very calm. He listened to these brown bears talking about food. They talked a lot, and there were many names of prey that he had never heard of. After a while, Ah Yin interrupted the bears who were still talking. people.

"What happened to you in that disaster?"

The little bear's head drooped again and he shrank back. The tall bear elders hugged the little bears to their chests to protect them. Xiong Tian's eyes dimmed and he said: "A lot of fire fell from the sky, the ground was moving, and our tribe split apart. Then I fainted and couldn't see the tribe when I woke up."

"We want to find our tribe, let's go "Ah, let's go, we're here."

Xiong Tian remembered the gap. He wanted to take the remaining tribe members to go around it, but he walked and walked. After walking for more than a month, he realized that he might have gone the wrong way, so he turned back and lost his way. I vaguely met bears from other tribes, but fortunately they were all brown bears, and they walked together again.

Then came here.

When the orcs behind Ah Yin heard this, they also thought of the disaster. They couldn't help but look at the group of bear men with less guarded eyes. Everyone looked at Ah Yin, waiting for Ah Yin to make a decision.

"You...come with us first." A Yin said.

Who knew that Xiong Tian and other bear people would be on guard first.

"We've said everything, are you going to sell us?"

"We're not going."

"Brother, I don't want to be separated from you."

"Auntie."

"Uncle."

There was a cry of excitement and fear. The little bear even turned into a human form, howling and crying, hugging Xiong Tian's thigh and not letting go. The older bear also protected the cub in his arms, looking at the people opposite him with caution and fear.

Hunting Team:? ? ?

Who wants to sell you? No, why are you still selling people and orcs?

The hunting team couldn't understand anymore. They looked at these humanoid cubs that were crying miserably. They couldn't help but turned into humanoid shapes and said all at once: "We don't think you are bear people. Let's take you away. "Why are you crying?"

"That's right, we haven't met you, it doesn't matter, A Yin wants to take you, but you are still crying."

"How long will you leave for more than a hundred days if we ignore you?" ?"

"Stop crying."

Xiong Tian held the rope in front of his chest and shouted, run, I will stop them.

Ah Yin: ...

Hunting Team: ...

It's not what this is for, they didn't say anything else.

"Brother, I don't want to run away. What will happen if you die?", "Are you going to dig up black rocks?", "Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu."

A Yin: "Stop crying. We don't mean any harm, really." He Looking at the bear-man standing in the front row, he could tell that these were-bears had a hard time in the past. He couldn't help but say, "I don't know what happened to your previous tribe. We don't have anyone selling orcs here."

Other orcs He nodded crazily, how could he sell orcs? Can orcs be sold?

Selling means exchanging goods at the market, right? The village chief also said to sell them before, but they were all in exchange for things. Why are these bears still being sold?

Everyone doesn't understand. It sounds like these bear people are a little miserable.

Xiong Tian hugged her younger brothers and sisters and looked at those people for a long time, "You really won't sell us?"

"No." Ah Yin said firmly, and then said: "When our village chief sees you, if you If you still want to leave, he will definitely let you go."

Xiong Tian: Who is the village chief?

If you let them go, why not let them go now?

"This is our village's territory, it's all here." A Yin said. No matter where these bear-men go in the future, if they appear here in their village, they are still orcs they have never seen before. My brother must see them and make a decision.

"Let's go."

Xiong Tian was under the gaze of these unseen orcs. Although they did not touch them now, the leading leopard man said that he would take them back to some village. If they ran, the tribesmen would not be able to escape.

So Xiong Tian could only take his younger brothers and sisters to follow.

He turned into an orc again. His younger brothers and sisters could only hang on him because they were afraid that they would not be able to change back for a while. Xiong Tian carried one on his back, holding one in his arms, and behind him were the tribesmen.

"These bear people have trouble walking."

"There seems to be a smell."

"There is a bear with no hair on its back, and there are wounds."

"They have been walking for more than a hundred days, more than a hundred days."

" Fortunately, we have a village chief."

The orcs in the hunting team stared at these bear men, whined and chatted, and sighed a lot. Without the leadership of the village chief, they would probably be like these bear men, walking around aimlessly, dragging their wounds, and They were carrying cubs, and a few died on the road. It was really pitiful.

The orcs of the hunting team ran in front, and there were a few more bear-men following behind. A Yin was right, and he had to let the village chief take a look.

Zhuo Yan received the message from Yingdou first and was a little surprised, "Werebears?"

"Yes, Chief Ayin said that he wanted me to come back to report. Those bearmen have brown fur and there are seventeen of them. We thought It's prey, I'm happy for nothing..."

Zhuo Yan asked the orcs who were left on patrol to keep an eye on him and inform him if they found anything.

Three days later, Zhuo Yan took the remaining orcs and saw those brown bears outside the field behind the village. The brown bears were very tall, dirty, and had injuries on their bodies. A Yin came to talk to him, and Zhuo Yan listened briefly.

After three days of getting along with Xiong Tian and others, they had all dropped their guard against these orcs they had never seen before. But when they came here and saw the small houses in the distance behind those people, fear suddenly appeared in their eyes.

These people lied to them! These people just want to sell them!

Xiong Tian hugged her brothers and sisters and whispered, "Run away in a while."

"Brother, there are so many of them so scared."

"Don't be afraid."

"What will happen to aunt and uncle if we run away?"

Xiong Tian has already taken care of it . There was no one else. His younger sister was his biological sister and his younger brother was his best friend's younger brother. He was the one who watched the cubs play at his house that day. In the end, only his younger sister and his best friend's younger brother survived. As for the uncle and aunt who are both members of the tribe, although it is not a good idea to say so, when danger comes, the first ones Xiong Tian wants to protect are his younger brothers and sisters.

Dan and Ada noticed something was wrong with the two injured 'old bears' beside them. They seemed to be trembling. Weren't they not afraid of them before? Why did it suddenly start shaking again?

The two exchanged glances.

When I found other bears, some were so scared that they peed.

No, they didn't do anything.

Zhuo Yan glanced at Ah Yin, and then at Ah Yin, because Ah Yin said "furry little bear" twice and still looked at him, Zhuo Yan: ...cough cough. He likes furry things very much, but he won't pet any furry ones he sees.

"You have the best touch in our family." Zhuo Yan finished speaking righteously and looked at the bear man behind him. He had to do business and ask the bear man what was going on there.

Then I heard a huge roar of a bear, and there was a young and tall brown bear with two cubs hanging on it. He got down on all fours, jumped around wildly, 'killed' a road with his head, and ran westward in a panic.

Zhuo Yan:?

Things changed too quickly.

Almost at the same moment, Ah Yin and his men chased after him. The bear-men who were left behind were so frightened that they sat on the ground, trembling and looked at him. Some of them turned into human forms and even knelt down and kowtowed to him to beg for mercy. Don't sell them.

Zhuo Yan was startled when he saw these people kneeling down to him and saying something, and then he frowned. In addition to their five tribes, there is also an orc civilization in places that still existed before, and it sounds like it is quite big.

Because the bears talk about business and have the consciousness to kneel down and beg for mercy.

Zhuo Yan thought of the slave society -

in the past, there were only four fur tribes and five feather tribes in their continent. Hairen had never seen them across the mountains. He only heard the feather tribes mention that they had to fly very far, and to the north was the glaciers and snow-capped mountains. There is no human habitation. The four grassland tribes follow some rules, but generally they are loyal, sincere, and open-minded.

It's like: there are artillery and rockets outside, but their village is still in Makabaka.

How could this not worry Zhuo Yan.

In the past, they were isolated and they, Makabaka, played by themselves, but now they see the bears appearing, which means they have access to the village. Sooner or later, someone will discover their village. If the other party is more powerful and has some bad intentions - they are all buying and selling people!

Zhuo Yan suppressed the turmoil in his heart, and with a smile on his face, he knelt down and said, "There is no buying or selling of orcs in our Hundred Beast Village, really."

"My name is Zhuo Yan, the village chief of Hundred Beast Village."

Kneel down . The face of the bear man begging for mercy could not be seen clearly because he had scruffy hair and unkempt beard. He was very thin, maybe because he was too tall, but he looked a bit old - you couldn't tell his true age from his appearance.

Ah Yin said that these people had been gone for more than a hundred days - which did not match the time of the disaster. Zhuo Yan suppressed the doubts in his mind. In short, he was tired from traveling while sleeping in the open air, so he must look older than his actual age.

"You guys get up first, Ah Hui and Ah Tou, help them up."

"What's your name?"

"Xiong, Xiong Ping."

Zhuo Yan nodded and saw the scars left by the burns on Xiong Ping's skin. Some wounds on her thighs and the back of her hands were necrotic and smelly. To be honest, if she wasn't an orc, such injuries would be so painful. After so long, everyone is gone.

"Xiong Ping, my partner went after Xiong Tian and the others. Don't worry. You guys will go back to the village with us first. I have something to ask you."

"Okay, okay -"

"You really won't sell us? "

Zhuo Yan said definitely: "No."

Those bear men were still a little scared, but they had no choice but to follow these people. On the way back to the village, Zhuo Yan noticed that these bear people were far away from each other and were very afraid of their houses.

"You keep saying you will sell you, who will sell you?"

Xiong Ping: "Black armor soldiers."

Zhuo Yan's heart sank, are there any soldiers?

"Why sell it?"

"We have to dig for black stones. We bears are very strong and have very good noses. We can find the Black Stone Mountain and the Green Stone Mountain. They let us go in and dig. Those who went there never came back."

" He will also be skinned."

Zhuo Yan frowned.

Ada, who was supporting Xiong Ping, looked at Xiong Ping in disbelief, "Skin-picking? You are orcs, you are all orcs, what do they do?"

Xiong Ping obviously misunderstood, Na Na said: "Don't wait for the bear people to die, the dead skins It's not good. The humanoid skin is not warm. I'll take it off when I still have breath."

Ah Tou was stunned. "It's so disgusting.

" ! Are those black-armored soldiers very powerful?"

Xiong Ping winced, "There are many of them, and they have black weapons in their hands. They can kill us. We can only run away, but we can't go to the city."

"You just saw it . I'm scared to go to our house, is it because the city is full of houses?" Zhuo Yan asked.

Xiong Ping nodded continuously, very frightened, "We can't do it anymore, my skin has been burned, I don't want to dig out black stones."

The orcs have never heard of such a thing, they have to sell people to dig. Black stones, and asking the orcs to peel off the animal skins while they were still alive - it was so abominable and miserable. They couldn't even imagine that even the most hated orcs in the tribe would not do this.

Those black-armored soldiers also had black weapons. They really wanted to see what they saw and had to knock out all their teeth. However, the orcs were so angry that they still didn't say anything angry when they saw the village chief's frown.

Let's see what the village chief says.

"Ah Yin and the others are back." Gehu said when he saw someone coming from a distance.

Xiong Ping looked over. He already knew that the village chief was the master of these orcs, so he hurriedly said, "Please, let Xiong Tian and the others go. We can be your slaves."

Zhuo Yan said, "We There are no slaves in the Hundred Beasts Village, and we don't need any of you to be our slaves."

"Brother, I'm back, it's okay." A Yin turned into a human form, holding a small bear in one hand, and running behind him.

When Zhuo Yan saw it, his brows relaxed slightly. Ah Yin also knew that "catch the thief first, capture the king". This little bear is the sister of Xiong Tian. She is now in the shape of a little bear, with soft curly hair, a bit like The teddy bear, with round eyes and round ears, was held by Ah Yin and did not dare to move.

"I beg you to let my sister go, she is still young and can't do the work, otherwise I will be your slave, Master." Xiong Tian shouted as he ran.

The little male bear behind me also whined.

"My brother said that there are no slaves in our village." Ayindu heard this and asked again: "What is a slave?"

Zhuo Yan: "It's a title I don't like very much." He looked at the other villagers orcs and looked at them slightly. He explained: "If we are bought and sold by more powerful orcs, they will not give us food if we have to work for them, and they will beat us if we don't do our job well, beat our cubs, and even kill us."

"I understand. , Those black-armored soldiers, these people are

so disgusting, if I see them, I will beat them up hard!

We don't want to be slaves, and neither do you.

" The orc shouted, and his anxious and worried eyes froze for a moment. Could it be that he really misunderstood these orcs?

Ah Yin handed the stiff little bear to Xiong Tian, ​​and his attitude was already very gentle. His brother didn't like slaves, and he didn't like them either. Those black-armored beasts who made bear people slaves were all bad people, and said: "You don't want to If you run away again, you can't beat me."

"I, I know." Xiong Tian knew that he couldn't beat me. He was subdued after just beating him. The leopards he had encountered before were not as big as the leopard man. , too big and powerful.

So the group of people finally settled down and returned to the village. However, as they got closer to the village and saw the houses clearly, Xiong Tian and the bear people widened their eyes, looked at each other, and whispered: "Their houses are so beautiful."

"Brother, Their house is different from Heijia City."

"Their house is so big."

"Brother, where is this place?"

Xiong Tian couldn't answer. He was confused. The bears looked at these beautiful people. The house is very clean here. The house is very clean and neat. It is much neater than Black Armor City.

"What are the houses in Black Armor City like?" Zhuo Yan heard several people sigh and ask.

Xiong Tian: "S-It's smaller than yours, and shorter. It's made of stone and wood, so it doesn't have such a sharp point."

There are no pointed roof tiles, windows, and even the door is made of wood and leaves. Zhuo Yan heard about the shed-like house built of stone and wood according to the trees, and asked more carefully, besides the house, were there many people living in it and what were they eating?

"There are more houses than yours."

"They all grow beans. Beans grow in the soil, as well as corn. We eat corn."

Those are roots and stems such as potatoes, but there is corn to eat. Zhuo Yan thought.

"We don't live in Heijia City. We live in a cave in Gaoxiong Mountain. There are black bears next to us. We don't have to deal with them. They always like to bully us and steal our Crunchy Dragon."

Zhuo Yan chatted with each other . , mainly by nodding and asking questions such as 'That's it', 'Then they're quite hateful', 'Do you grow corn?' and other questions to guide Xiong Tian to say more, and Xiong Ping and others will also add.

Slowly, he sketched out the 'Black Armored City' in his mind, which was much better than what he had just imagined - what he had just imagined: a huge city-state with an army and weapons, a complete slave system, and the ability to plant and build houses.

But from what Xiong Tian and the others described, it was obviously not the same thing.

Black Armor City is twice as big as their village, and the houses are not as good as theirs. There is a half-circle of trenches outside the city, and it is backed by a mountain on one side - it sounds very familiar, a bit like their tribe before, but their tribe has mountains and water on one side and is surrounded by forests. With.

Can plant, sprinkle seeds on the land when the weather is hot, and have simple agricultural tools.

"Village chief, you are back!"

"Are they the bear people?" When Xiao Xian heard that there were bear people, he ran to see them curiously and smiled, "Hello, you guys."

The little bear showed his round eyes and was curious, but Dare not speak.

Zhuo Yan nodded, noticed the bear man's gaze, and became even more sure——

There is no weaving in Black Armor City, and the Bear Man has never seen any clothes. When he asked the question just now, Xiong Ping first looked at what he was wearing out of curiosity, but fear prevailed and she quickly begged for mercy. Now that she was safe, she was curious to see what he was wearing. What Xiao Xian was wearing.

In that case, the Black-armored City may be an advanced version of the primitive tribe - all kinds of orcs live together. The black-armored orcs have the largest number of people and are the most powerful, and there are some other small tribes scattered outside the city.

The black-armored orcs will capture orcs from small tribes, trade and exploit them.

These orcs did not have the four tribes of lions, wolves, tigers and leopards. He had heard of some such as Mr. Xiong, the Golden Roc tribe, the dog tribe, the orangutan tribe, and the ones he had not heard of were the black-armored beasts. The small tribes are not very friendly either, because most of the resources have been eaten up by the Black Armor City, and some remaining small tribes compete with each other. For example, the black bear people always like to steal the prey of the brown bear tribe.

Of the seventeen people led by Xiong Tian, ​​only five were from their previous tribe. He, his sister, his best friend, his brother, his aunt, his uncle, and the rest were all picked up when they fled along the way.

Having just experienced a devastating disaster, everyone was very scared. Xiong Tian looked the youngest, strongest and not malicious. Of course, the old, weak, sick and disabled people had to stick together and rely on Xiong Tian.

"But you said you were gone for more than a hundred days. Did the disaster also happen more than a hundred days ago?" Zhuo Yan asked.

Xiong Tian has now put down his guard against the village chief. He thinks the village chief is a good person.

"I don't know either. I kept counting and forgot. I tied a lot of grass knots. Once I was chased by a big beast with sharp teeth, short legs in front and wings on its back. It didn't look like an elephant. The grass knots were all lost."

Sang Long was very excited when he heard the description, "Is it a short-legged beast?" "That's great, the short-legged beast

is not dead!"

, although the orcs were angry, it had nothing to do with them not going to the Black-armored City - if these stinky black-armored beasts dared to come to their village, they would definitely beat them back.

Now of course it is the prey that makes everyone excited and happy.

This is a short-legged beast. It's so big that the whole village can eat a lot of barbecued meat. Everyone was very excited and happy when they thought of this, and they couldn't wait to catch it now.

In the past, tribes would not challenge such a big guy if they did not reach a certain level: for example, when they were stocking up before winter, or when a tribesman had a broken arm or leg and needed brachypod wings as medicine powder.

It was too difficult to fight, and even the bravest orcs in the tribe would be at risk of becoming disabled.

But now, the orcs, who had been homeless for a year and a half, had fire in their eyes when they heard what Xiong Tian said, "Where is it, good brother Xiong Tian."

Zhuo Yan: ...

I don't blame everyone, he also wants to eat meat.

Sure enough, these potential dangers of disappearing are not worth the fragrance of the large barbecue that may appear.

The disaster must have passed some time, and they were rebuilding after the disaster. According to Xiong Tian, ​​Black Armor City must have also been affected - it was a large tribe before the impact, and now the two sides are standing on the same starting line.

Zhuo Yan grinded his teeth and thought, what kind of black-armored orc dares to try his bad ideas in their Hundred Beast Village!

After meeting Xiong Tian, ​​I at least knew something about the outside situation.

The village's infrastructure is very important, and they also have to make some weapons for self-defense.

Chapter 115

"First arrange for the little bears to live in the big factory building." Zhuo Yan said.

In the first half of the year, half of the house was built. Two of the three large factory buildings were already empty, one room was used as a utility room, and the other room was just suitable for the 17 Brown Bears to stay in. After these people took a break, there were still wounds that needed to be treated. , the cleanup is almost done, it will depend on whether the seventeen people want to leave, grab another territory and form a small tribe, or stay.

If you want to acquire another territory, then don't stay within the scope of their Hundred Beast Village. If you stay, the Hundred Beast Village will not support idlers.

"By the way, call Ah Sulai and help them take a look. I think Xiong Ping's injuries need to be treated cleanly. The weather is hot. If we delay it any longer, even the orcs may not be able to carry it."

Xiao Xian nodded and ran quickly to call Ah Su . white.

The orcs, on the other hand, surrounded Xiong Tian and were still searching for traces of the brachypod. When they learned that it was discovered more than two months ago, the orcs: ... sighed in disappointment, why did the brachypod run so far away?

"Maybe they will come to us in the second half of the year." A Yin said.

The orcs could only say yes.

This time I went out hunting and found nothing but a bear man. I had to continue eating peanuts, rhubarb rice and mung bean soup - and by the way, I could also eat konjac. The village chief taught me how to make it. Sprinkle some red spicy fruit powder and Sichuan pepper powder. It tasted really good. Not bad.

The dried konjac tastes hard when chewed, a bit like eating hornbeef.

It can barely replace the meat.

Thinking like this, the orcs were a little hungry and they were going home.

Xiong Tian hugged her sister, carried her brother on her back, and came in with her clan members. She took a closer look at these houses. They were really beautiful and clean. Unlike Black Armor City, only the place where the city lord lived was big and clean.

Along the way, they met many orcs and sub-orcs. They knew that the orcs wore leather, but the sub-orcs wore the same clothes as the village chief. They looked very thin and comfortable. Xiong Tian only heard about these clothes from other people. Pass.

The city lord of Blue Ocean City only wore clothes, not leather.

I heard it is very precious and valuable.

A small piece of clothing requires a dozen orc slaves to change.

Xiong Tian was surprised when he heard this, and didn't dare to ask any more questions, because those people in the black-armored city would look at him after he finished speaking, and then laughed and said that for a young and almost adult person like you who is strong, you might be able to replace him with a few less. a piece of clothing.

He was so frightened that he ran away.

And now, in this village of beasts, the village chief and the villagers—the villagers are city residents, right? They were all wearing the same clothes, clothes that could only be worn by the city lord and master in the past.

The people here are so rich.

"Brother, they all have clothes to wear."

"They are so beautiful."

Xiong Tian still made a quiet gesture to his sister. He couldn't understand what the village chief said about a big factory? But he understood that the village chief wanted to show them their wounds.

So I just remembered the fear that the citizens of Black Armor City said about using slaves to change clothes. This will dissipate a little bit, because the village chief here seems to be a very nice person. Many villagers greet him, and he always smiles and explains. Said they were bear people.

"We're here, you guys stay here. The lake closest to here is on the east side. It's just a short walk away." Zhuo Yan stopped.

Xiong Tian's seventeen people stood timidly on the spot. They looked around secretly along the way, but when the villagers here looked at them, they would lower their heads in fear. At this moment, they heard what the village chief said.

What's coming? That big factory building where they live?

Xiong Tian and others raised their heads, looked at the village chief, and then looked at where the village chief was pointing. Then there were seventeen people. Everyone had the same expression on their faces, full of shock, disbelief, and then some confusion and fear. believe.

"This, this, is this where we live?" Xiong Tian asked boldly.

Xiong Ping said in a trance: "Such a good house, such a big house, only a city lord can live in it."

"Don't mention that shabby city lord."

"We used to live here."

The orcs are now interested in Hei Jia . The city lord was fed up and was very unhappy when the bear man said this. The bear man shrank his shoulders in fear, Zhuo Yan said: "Go in and settle down first."

Xiao Xian came with Asu.

The bears went in obediently. It was really big and open inside. There were beds and straw mats on the floor, and there were many things they had never seen before.

Zhuo Yan: "I'll leave this to you two. A Su, help them check their wounds. Xiao Xian, you take them to clean up and settle down first."

"I know the village chief."

Zhuo Yan walked out, and A Yin followed. After they were far away, Zhuo Yan said, "Xiong Tian and the others are in the village. You can ask the orcs to take turns keeping an eye on them, so they are a little wary."

After he finished speaking, A Yin was very happy when he saw them.

"???"

A Yin smiled happily, "Brother, you just called them Little Bears. I thought you liked them very much."

"The appearance is indeed very good." Zhuo Yan told the truth, and sure enough, he saw the corners of A Yin's mouth turning down. , now the smile moved to his face, Zhuo Yan had a smile on his face, and he just touched his A Yin's head, and said seriously: "They are outsiders, and our five races know them well. We have been together for many years and have experienced disasters. We have come this far together."

"Xiong Tian and the others don't seem to have any problems at the moment, but for a short period of time, they have to be on guard against others. They just have to keep an eye on them. They have no bad intentions and can be tolerant."

Ah Yin nodded seriously. "I understand, brother."

"By the way, the hunting team didn't hunt anything this time. They probably don't want to give up. They will go out when it's time to go out, leaving the patrol team behind. You can discuss the order with the other four clan leaders." "

Okay. "

Kong Xingxing led the Yu people to work in the textile industry, but there are also Ying people and Diao people who don't like to do this business and like to fly in the sky and fight - these are the proper scouts, so Kong Xi's friends Diao Ming and his sister also All chicks have joined the hunting team patrol.

In a large factory.

Xiao Xian told several bear people how to use things, "I'll give you some food first, and you can cook it yourself. There's a big stove outside and coal, but you can't eat for free here, you have to work."

The bear people were nervous . stand up.

When Xiao Xian saw it, he got angry and said, "What? You really want to stay in our village and eat and drink for free without working?" How is this possible! These bear men are tall and big and must be very edible.

"A Su, how are they injured?" Xiao Xian asked.

"This injury is a bit serious. I need to clean the wound first. I need to rest. There is also a limp. There are no short-legged beast wings. I can't see clearly. Moreover, they are broken. I will only be able to walk with a limp in the future." Asu has already gathered. They all looked around and said, "The others are fine."

Xiao Xian nodded, "The one with the most serious injury will rest first. I will arrange some easy work for the lame one and go to Boss Kong's place. These two cubs - I Ask Lele to take them away to herd sheep.

"Don't, don't take my sister away." Xiong Tian was anxious. He didn't understand what "sheep herding" meant. He only understood that he wanted to take away his younger siblings.

Xiao Xian: "Then you go along!"

We have to work anyway.

It happened that there were calfs giving birth to calves again at Lele's place. Lele said that he wanted to build a big shed and sheepfold and let this bear Tian pass there. He looked good at carrying things.

Asu cleaned Xiong Ping's wounds, grilled the knife first, and called the orcs to help hold down Xiong Ping. Xiong Ping was so frightened that she didn't dare to move. She quickly screamed and struggled, but was stopped by the orcs. Press.

But bears like Xiong Tian huddled in the corner with fear on their faces.

He just said that these people were very good, but it turns out he wanted to torture them.

The masters in the city really like to torture orcs.

...

A Bai and others brought food. Xiao Xian casually called two bears to help and taught the two bears how to cook rhubarb rice porridge. There was a little peanut sprinkled in it. The porridge was not ready yet, and there was floating in the air. The aroma of food, the numb fear on the faces of Xiong Tian and his group turned into hunger and desire.

"I'll help you cook it today, and then you can fetch water and make porridge yourself."

"And tidy up your hair, it's messy and dirty."

A Bai said with a smile, "It's not ready yet, I'll take them to the lake. Clean it up."

"Okay." Xiao Xian turned to the bear man and asked A Bai to go to the lake, "Hurry up."

After cleaning the wound, Xiong Ping, who was sweating and with white lips, started to struggle, but A Su pushed her back. " Don't move."

Xiong Tian followed this sub-orc with his younger siblings, but he was secretly observing the surroundings, thinking of taking his younger siblings to escape from here. This place was really scary, and he had previously believed that the village chief was a good person.

Abai: ...Why is this big bear kid so sneaky?

"The cleaners come to the small lake here. The big lake above is used for cooking and boiling water." Abai told the others while paying attention to the big bear boy.

He couldn't bear to give soap to these bears, so he gave them bubble leaves.

"Wet your body, rub the leaves into pieces, and rub your head."

"Come here after you have rubbed it clean. The two of you will shave each other's hair here. Shave it short and then wash it again." After

all is washed, the skins of these bear men are very smelly. , dirty. A Bai couldn't help it, "You wrap it up first, and come here to wash yourself at night."

"Go back, go back, it's almost dark."

The bears were all wet, with no hair or beards. Xiong Tian hugged The younger brothers and sisters followed behind this sub-orc. The sixteen of them were originally scared. Xiong Tian even secretly told the younger brothers and sisters not to be afraid while taking a bath, and he would take you out of here at night.

Then, return to the strong aroma of food on the stove in the courtyard of the big factory.

Gurgling. Everyone's stomach growled.

Xiong Ping has already eaten. The pain was so bad just now that she is holding the bowl and drinking porridge. It is so delicious.

Xiong Tian saw the sub-orc man who asked them to work, waving a big spoon and said: "What are you doing? Come eat, go to bed early after eating."

They passed by in a daze, and were stuffed with hot porridge. I have never seen bowls like this before. In the past, they were made of stone or wood. Food would get dirty if left out for a long time. The bowls here are very clean.

Xiong Tian hugged the bowl and drank the first hot porridge after the disaster - he seemed to have gone back to the past, when his mother and father were still there, and there were brothers and sisters. They lived together, and the family gathered around the stone pot. Eat polenta.

Very fragrant, very fragrant.

Big tears fell on Xiong Tian's face into the bowl. He raised his hand to wipe his eyes and sniffed. He looked a little embarrassed. He looked up at the others and found that no one was paying attention to him. Everyone was shedding tears just like him. tears.

He lowered his head and saw his sister snoring and sipping porridge.

His younger brother was crying just like him, surely missing his partner.

Each person could eat two bowls of porridge. After eating, the orc named Xiaoxian asked them to wash the pots and bowls and gave them some peanuts.

"Take it and eat it. There's nothing you can do if it's not enough. That's how we eat it too."

Xiong Tian took the hot peanut tightly and said solemnly with red eyes: "Thank you, that's enough, that's enough."

"Okay. , you finish cleaning up and go to bed early. I have given you some leather in the room. Although it is not too thick, the weather is hot recently, but it is still enough. I will ask you to get up and cook tomorrow, and I will take you to work." Xiao Xian explained. After that, Xiaowo came to pick him up.

"I'm leaving, see you tomorrow."

That night, Xiong Tian held her younger siblings in her arms and slept on a clean wooden bed. No one mentioned leaving. Xiong Guo lay on the leather and whispered: "Brother, it's so nice here. There is hot porridge to eat, it smells good here, I don't have to sleep on the ground, and there are no bugs gnawing at me."

"I don't want to leave, brother."

Xiong Tiantouched I touched my sister's head, it was a bit prickly and she had no hair, but it was actually not bad. The weather was hot and her hair was messy and very hot. "Well, we are not leaving. If digging rocks is tiring, I will work more." "

He can be a slave, and it can be very hard.

"Brother, I can do it with you." Xiong Ling said.

Early the next morning, before dawn, all seventeen bear men woke up - they had a very solid and sweet sleep. They had slept on the ground outside before, and there would be bugs and fear, and the ground was wet. , will wake up at the slightest movement.

And now I sleep very well.

There was movement outside, and they discussed cleaning up as Xiao Xian said yesterday. Everyone was very obedient, for fear that the villagers of Baishou Village would drive them away.

"The villagers here love to be clean.", "Xiao Xian said yesterday that he wanted to fetch water.", "Then I'll carry the bucket.", "I'll go with you.", "Xiong Ping, just lie down. "I'm injured."

...

When Xiao Xian and A Bai came, they found that the bucket under the stove shed outside the big factory was full and the stove had been cleaned up. They couldn't help but be very happy. They divided the work and called the bear man to cook. After the bears have eaten, they will be taken to work.

Seventeen of them were orcs, and I heard that some orcs and sub-orcs died on the way.

"Although you are very pitiful, you still have to work."

"If you don't work, you won't have food to eat."

A Bai smiled. Xiao Xian was a fierce person but with a good heart. He even asked Boss Kong if he was broken. But after hearing this, Boss Kong said: "Don't worry."

Xiao Xian thought it was not done yet so he came back anxiously.

Shitou knew that there were rags in the factory. Nowadays, there were many weavers and the clan had no shortage of clothes. Kong Xingxing took Shitou's hand and explained, "I know the village chief brought back seventeen bear men yesterday, but we shouldn't be so nice to them."

"?" Shitou was still a little confused.

Kong Xingxing said confidently: "The village chief is definitely not worried about these bear people. Let's take a look first."

Shitou nodded, "Zhuo Yan must be right not to worry about these seventeen bear people, so don't give them clothes first, and then Wait, if I meet Zhuo Yan, I will ask him when is the best time to give."

So on this day, Xiao Xian led sixteen bear people to work in various departments, and Xiong Tian, ​​Xiong Guo, and Xiong Ling followed. Lele Buhei These children herd sheep - not just sheep, but also horned cattle and deer, but they are collectively called sheep herding.

Brother Zhuo Yan said.

Adults with strong hands and feet can go to the "Transportation Department" to transport some wood and bricks to build a house. The tribe is still building houses. The one with bad legs and a little thin went to the "Food Department". The food was about to be collected, and the village wanted to open a large field this year, otherwise there would not be enough food.

Zhuo Yan heard that Xiao Xian came to apply for a job, "You arranged it very well. Didn't Xingxing give you the clothes hole?"

"Yes, maybe it's not enough."

Zhuo Yan understood what was going on when he heard it, and told Xiao Xian not to urgent. Xiao Xian's eyes were round, "Brother Zhuo Yan, why did you say the same thing as Boss Kong?"

"The little bears are quite pitiful, but Xiao Xian, we still have to take another look. In the past, we were the five tribes. Later, I didn't have much contact with the Yu people, but I knew some of the Yu people's temperaments. "

For example, the Golden-headed people are timid, and the Yan people are timid. The Eagle Man is strong, and the Eagle Man is good at fighting, but they all have good and bad qualities. For example, Kong Xi, who followed the Eagle Man, exchanged things in the market, and the Kongxi Man was very good.

According to the initial stereotypes and prejudices against peacocks, Xiaoxian Aman also said in chat: Kongxi people are not like peacocks at all.

Not so arrogant, but very approachable and easy to get along with.

"When it comes to treating foreigners, if we don't understand, we just listen and read more. We don't treat them harshly, but we can't treat them the same as the villagers in our village from the very beginning. The five of us tribes will starve and suffer together. "

"They don't pay anything, they have clothes to wear, even though they are made of rags, the people in the village will not say anything about you, they will only be a little dissatisfied with the little bears. When the time comes, you will still stand by the villagers to protect the little bears. Here, let's talk about Little Bear?"

Xiao Xian said, "Is Brother Zhuo Yan the same as when Boss Kong came to our clan?"

"Yes." Zhuo Yan smiled happily, Xiao Xian has grown up.

"The people in the tribe don't like Boss Kong and the others. I've heard a few sub-orcs say behind their back that Boss Kong and the others have a bad temper. Shitou stopped me from quarreling with them. Everyone got better after that." Xian thought of this and said, "If the villagers talk about Xiao Xiong and the others, I won't get involved."

Zhuo Yan nodded, "We in the village, some of our quarrels are just for face. After a few quarrels, the heat is gone, and no one has any bad intentions.

"Just watch. Let them work for a while and dress like that. If you are not in a hurry, our villagers will have to ask you, or go to Kong Xingxing and ask if there are any rags and clothes for them. " A few clothes."

Xiao Xian: "I understand Brother Zhuo Yan."

"Observe them for half a month, and wait until they get used to the life in the village and don't eat harshly. I will be able to use them." Zhuo Yan really thought before. However, if Xiong Tian and his group leave, he won't stop them, but now he wants to try his best to seduce the little bears to stay.

But it cannot be said directly. The cubs must be willing to stay voluntarily and have a sense of belonging to the village.

He remembered that Xiong Tianxiong Ping said that brown bears have very sensitive noses and can smell black stones. Black stones are not coal. , most likely iron ore, just like the black gravel of the Lion Tribe before.

Because Xiong Tian said that the black-armored soldiers captured and traded brown bears to dig for black stones. They couldn't defeat the black-armored soldiers because the black-armored soldiers had weapons.

When they were escaping, Kong Xingxing and the others took with them some of the people who were eating - some plant needles. These are consumables, and there must not be enough needles. The sea water has flooded Yuren Mountain, and the coniferous plants are currently nowhere to be found.

While the infrastructure of the Beast Village is being built, Zhuo Yan wants to find black stones and make some self-defense weapons, as well as hinges for doors and windows, needles for the peacocks, etc.

There is a 'moat' blocking the southwest of the village, and it is very empty to the north - which is the direction Xiong Tian came from. It's definitely not possible to build a 'city wall'. It's too useless. Just have weapons to protect yourself.

The hunting team continued to hunt for prey without giving up.

Three days later, the eagle howled loudly in the northeastern sky. The eagle flew to the village, circled and screamed. The orcs and sub-orcs could not understand it, so they asked the feathered people around them what was going on. The feathered people were very happy.

"The hunting team found the prey."

"It's a new one that I've never seen before. It's very big. The hunting team asked for more people."

"There's meat to eat!!!"

Now the village was boiling. Zhuo Yan quickly asked Gehu Xiaowo to go for reinforcements. Everyone was curious about what it was. Someone asked the village chief, and Zhuo Yan laughed and said, "I don't know either."

"Hahaha, I thought the village chief knew everything."

"I Yes."

Everyone became happy and looked forward to the prey.

It's been a year and a half since I've eaten meat. Who knows? Zhuo Yan said it was a lie when he said he wasn't hungry. He said, "I'll stir-fry for everyone."

"Okay, okay."

"Village chief, I don't want it . So numb ."

"Okay, I'll separate the stir-fry ingredients," Zhuo Yan thought, calling Xiao Xian Aman, "Bring me some more peanuts, and I'll give you some nut roast ingredients." Zhuo Yan did as he was told, and went to the big factory building with great interest to use the large communal stove. The sub-orcs gathered around to help. Some people asked the village chief if he wanted to chop wood to make a meat drying rack. "What's left to dry and eat later?" "I haven't eaten meat for more than a year. The rest can be hung on the rafters." Zhuo Yan then thought that there were so many people in the village and said, "I haven't eaten meat in a long time. Everyone is eating open this time." "! Have you eaten them all?" "There may be a lot of people in our village." I listened to the village chief and stopped making meat drying racks. At this moment, all the villagers, including Zhuo Yan, were thinking that no matter how big the prey was, it would be similar to a gray elephant or a mammoth. The hunting team set out with fifteen people, and there were fifteen reinforcements. It's definitely enough. During the three days of waiting, the village was as happy as the New Year. A Yin was not at home, and Zhuo Yan took his three children to bed. After washing at night, they went to their own beds. The four father and son slept on the bed and chatted in the dark. We have been talking about prey for two nights. Tonight, as usual, he first said, "The prey should be back soon" and "Your father has been out for seven days." Zhuo Buhei laughed and said that dad misses his father. Zhuo Le said, of course, dad said he wanted to eat the prey, but actually he wanted to eat the prey. Father, Zhuo Kang's tone rose and he whined. Zhuo Yan: ...all these stinky brats. But there was a smile on his face and he couldn't hold it back, so he decided to change the topic. Instead of talking about the cubs, he asked Lele if he was black and how the cubs were doing. "Dad!" Zhuo Le breathed out in high spirits. Zhuo Yan knew something was wrong as soon as he heard it - not a bad thing. He quickly turned over and looked at the position of Lele's bed in the dark. Before Zhuo Le could say anything, Zhuo Buhei jumped out of his bed and ran over to squeeze his sister. He said shyly: "Don't say it, don't say it." "Hey, I'm your father. Your sister can listen, and your eldest brother and I want to hear it too." Zhuo Yan said hurriedly. Zhuo Kang was so big, he turned over lightly and landed on the ground. He ran over and picked up Zhuo Buhei in his mouth, and slapped Zhuo Le with his tail, which meant: speak faster. "Daddy, Buhei likes to touch little bears very much, he touches them every day!" Zhuo Le said in one breath: "I didn't realize before that Buhei secretly reached out to touch Xiong Tian's tail, but Xiong Tian looked at him, and Buhei just I ran to touch Xiongguo Xiongling. " Zhuo Yan: ... Ahem, this problem is similar to his. "No, don't touch someone's bear tail. He's not your big brother." This is very 'sexual harassment'. "If you like it, you have to ask them if it's okay."

Zhuo Buhei's face turned red and he said: "I asked my father and they were all willing. I gave them all the peanuts for my lunch. Later, Xiong Tian said, if you want to touch him, just touch him. Don't touch him." Xiongguo Xiongling, they were still young, so I knew he had misunderstood. "

"Dad, I didn't mean to bully them, it's just that they are really easy to touch. Their hair is short and a little curly, but it's very soft inside. They are soft, a bit prickly and itchy on the outside, and their tails are short, like a little fur ball, and feel soft to the touch. I can't control myself."

"And their ears are round, and they will twitch when I touch them. Very cute."

Zhuo Yan: It does sound very itchy.

"Have you explained it to the little bears?" said the serious father.

Zhuo Buhei nodded, "Xiong Tian asked me to touch him after he asked me to touch him, so I explained. But then I still only touched Xiong Tian. His younger brothers and sisters were a bit timid. Every time I touched them or gave them peanuts, they would not do anything." I don't know if they are happy or not. It seems that I forced them."

"Xiong Tian is fine, I just touched him as he said."

Zhuo Yan: ...

Now he is a little worried. His family is fifteen years old. Are there signs of puppy love?

"Sister, you should touch it too. It's really soft. It's different from Wind Chime, Tiger and Big Brother."

"I don't have this hobby." Zhuo Le refused, "Is fur so easy to touch?"

" "Yes, yes."

Zhuo Yan saw Buhei secretly and casually touching his elder brother's tail while he was talking, and then Zhuo Kang slapped his brother's hand with his tail. Zhuo Buhei was still there with a hehehe look on his face. Earn it. Zhuo Yan: ...

It seems that he is worrying too much.

He only touches fur because fur is really good to suck.

If you don't touch a bear, you have never touched a bear before.

The four father and son were chatting and laughing and fell asleep without realizing it. Before dawn the next day, Zhuo Kang jumped out of bed first and let out a whimper. Zhuo Le woke up and Zhuo Kang had already ran out of the house.

"Dad, my eldest brother said that my father and the others are back." Zhuo Le said, with a head of hair on his head, and wondered for a moment, "How did the eldest brother hear that? They are all orcs."

Zhuo Yan touched his daughter's hair, and her hair was so real Roughly, "Your eldest brother hasn't turned into a human yet. This may be his sixth sense."

"Haha." Zhuo Le was just curious, and now he was more energetic. He yelled, "Let's go, I'll carry you." Look at the hunting team outside. "

Zhuo Buhei has already called me.

Zhuo Yan put on his clothes and went out. He saw that the whole village looked sleepy and full of energy. Their heads were full of hair and they didn't brush their teeth or wash their faces. They all got up from the bed. Some went out with bubble leaves and shared half a piece with each other. , asked: "Are you back?"

"I don't know, I also heard some orcs shouting."

"It seems that the hawk man is back."

"I heard the chickpeas shouting."

"They must be back."

From the big factory Xiong Tian and his group also came out. They were curious and went out with the villagers to see. After waiting for a while, they saw no one. Some people gave them bubble leaves and asked them to go to the lake to clean first.

"Anyway, we haven't come yet." "Let's go and clean up first." "I've seen you, you're a log-carrying guy, right? You bear people are said to be very strong, which is good."

Xiong Tian brushed his teeth, rinsed his mouth and washed his face. Someone shouted: Come back.

He stood up and looked into the distance, then his eyes widened.

"Giant-toothed python?!"

The Seventeen Bears were stunned to the spot.

Chapter 116

"Have you seen this thing?" The orcs who stayed in the village heard the bear man saying the name of the prey, and immediately talked to him and asked.

Xiong Tian and the others nodded blankly.

"What's it called?"

"Giant-Tooth Python." Xiong Tian looked at the prey dragged back from the distance, swallowed in fear, and said hurriedly: "It's very big, strong, and can't be killed. It runs very fast. If you encounter it, you will die. Only the black-armored soldiers can kill it. "

The orc said, "It's so powerful. Is it delicious?"

"It looks so big and has a lot of meat."

"I, we haven't eaten it before. Xiong Tian said. Their tribe is a small tribe, with only a hundred people. If they catch a Crunchy Dragon, they will be robbed. How dare they catch a Giant Tooth Python.

Orc: "Don't worry about whether to eat or not. Let me ask about the situation of our hunting team and see if there are any dead people."

"I'll ask the geese back."

It's convenient for the feathered man to have wings, and he soon got the news that someone was injured. Well, no one died. The geese came back to communicate with Yingdou, chirping word by word.

"...the skin is scratched."

"This thing still has teeth. The tiger men broke the teeth and said that they are not as sharp as the teeth of their previous earth dragon beasts and cannot be used to make tooth needles."

"It's just too long. The skin is too long. It was thick, and it was cut in half. I didn't expect it to move, but it knocked the lion men to the ground and scratched their skin."

"It's okay, no bones were hurt."

"It was cut off in three parts, and the head was dragged back. There are several clan leaders working together to tie them up."

The seventeen bear men were in a daze.

Every word these orcs said shocked the bear people. Brown bears are not the tallest and strongest among the bear people. Black bears are the most powerful and the most numerous bear people. Their brown bears are also subdivided. For example, the Xiongtian tribe is a curly brown bear. They eat more vegetarian food and like to eat corn, bamboo shoots, potatoes, etc., of course occasionally. It is also very happy to eat meat as a snack.

It has a gentle and docile personality, but is a little timid. Of course, it also has advantages. The curly brown bear has a keen sense of smell and is also very honest, so it is bought and sold by the black-armored soldiers - used to survey mines, or do housework, take care of the owner's cubs, farm, etc.

If you catch a black bear, especially if the tribe has a large number of people, there may be casualties.

Therefore, when these seventeen bear men heard that there was such a huge giant toothed python, the orcs in the Hundred Beast Village caught it without any death. They even cut it into three pieces and said that its teeth were not as sharp as those of other beasts...

So strong.

Xiong Tian was thinking in a daze.

The orcs are also very curious here, "It seems that this giant toothed python is your prey. If you don't catch this, then what do you catch? Is that crunchy dragon delicious? How big is it?"

"We also have dragons here." Tiger. The orcs said: "It's called an earth dragon. It's dug into the earth, and its skin is very delicious."

Everyone drooled when they talked about eating it, but most of the orcs ran to help.

"It's delicious." Xiongguo couldn't help but interject after hearing Crunchy Dragon.

Xiong Tian protected his sister and made gestures.

The orc who asked the question looked at the Khajiit orc with a look that said, 'Your earth dragon is so small?' There is not enough food here. Tiger Man: ...

"This is too small, smaller than a rhinoceros."

Before the bears could answer, the orcs who were asking and chatting could no longer stand and ran to respond. Three groups of orc humanoids dragged their prey back. The python's body was extremely round and huge, with one section being four or five meters long, let alone three sections.

The giant toothed python taking the lead was tied up by vines. It didn't have much breath, and its body was cold and allowed to be dragged.

Zhuo Yan stood a little further away and listened to Ah Yin talk about where this python came from, how they met it and how they caught it - it was the first time they saw this kind of prey. Everyone was bruised, but they still rested. Rest, he arranged for injury leave and so on.

When Xiong Tian heard this, a chill came over her head.

If their group encountered this giant-toothed python, they would definitely die.

Fortunately, fortunately.

"Is he dead?", "I haven't been moving for a long time anyway.", "The village chief has cooked the ingredients.", "This is too big, I haven't eaten meat for a long time."

Everyone was drooling, including the orcs Said: "I heard from the bear people that this is called giant tooth python, but they have never eaten it and don't know if it tastes good."

"We will find out if it tastes good or not in a while!"

"Yes!"

The sub-orcs and the cubs Everyone came to see the excitement, and Zhuo Yan also took a look. He had never seen such a big python even when he watched movies. After being dragged to the square and before slaughtering, no one expected that Hawa suddenly pulled out the bone knife and inserted the knife straight into the back of the head of the giant python. The giant python that was originally peaceful and lifeless suddenly became violent. Swinging and struggling, the strength was so great that the originally motionless body was swung wildly, and the segments actually started to move, but to a smaller extent.

Hawa stepped on the giant-toothed python's head, letting the giant-toothed python struggle, holding the bone knife in his hand motionless, and even pushed it in a few more inches, nailing the bone knife and the giant-toothed python's head.

For a long time, the python became motionless and completely dead.

Hawa jumped down without pulling out the bone knife, and said: "This thing is slippery. It is trying to deceive us without moving. It will not survive, and it also wants to take away a few villagers."

The hunting habits of the orcs are basically to kill them on the spot . , Unless the prey is particularly large, and the food is stored before winter and the large prey cannot be brought back, then it is rushed back.

Like the giant toothed python, it slowly pretends to be dead during transportation, and then waits until everyone thinks it is dead and relaxes, and then goes crazy and kills a few before it dies - not for survival, but simply for revenge.

Although the orcs have never seen this prey, they still have hunting experience, which is the experience accumulated by the tribesmen in the past.

Blood flowed out and seeped into the soil.

Zhuo Yan looked at it for a while, then looked away, looked at the dirty and injured hunting team, and said, "Thank you for the prey that the hunting team brought back this time."

Everyone clapped and clapped happily.

"The hunting team is going to clean up first. The villagers are preparing barbecue. If they can't finish eating, they will pick up and dry the meat."

"Okay!"

"Great!"

The village has not been so happy for a long time. The last time it was so happy was the harvest of the first crop. , that night, they had the first full meal after the disaster, and now it was the first barbecue! Still open to eat.

This python must be measured in tons at least.

The bonfire was lit, and the orcs who stayed in the village were now dividing the meat - they were stronger and were very skilled at peeling off the skin, while the sub-orcs were preparing to skewer the meat, skewering large chunks of meat on sharpened wooden sticks. , placed on the fire stand and rolled by hand.

There were ten bonfires in total, and everyone spread out and gathered around the barbecue.

Soon the air was filled with the smell of meat - it was really delicious. Everyone in the square sniffed and said how delicious it smelled. Orcs, sub-orcs, and beasts all loved eating meat. No one could bear it after not eating meat for a year and a half.

Some orcs are grilled slightly brown on the outside and served in the mouth.

"This giant-toothed python is quite delicious.", "Yes, it's delicious, spicy.", "It also smells like milk.", "Dad, eat it quickly.", "That python skin is quite strong. ." "The village chief said, stay here until they are cleaned up, and the first batch of python skins will be used to make some vests for the hunting team." " What

the

village chief said?" The orc who wore the leather said: "The village chief said that this leather is very soft and strong, and is lighter to wear. If the hunting team goes out hunting, it can reduce the number of heart injuries in the chest." " Then listen to the village chief." This is a good thing. Zhuoyan Ayin and Amanqiao were grilling meat around the fire. They didn't have time to talk. They each grilled something. After eating the first round, they had the words to speak. Zhuo Yan said vaguely: "It smells so good." "It's so fragrant. I couldn't help but drool when I was roasting it just now." Aman took another big mouthful. Qiao: "I haven't eaten for a long time." Xiao Xian chewed. There were also a bunch of cubs, Blizzard grilled them for Kangkang, and Wind Chime Tiger grabbed the food himself. When they didn't have enough, they took bone knives to cut the meat, and cut the meat and skewered it on wooden sticks themselves - all by themselves. The older children look after the younger cubs. Zhuo Le fed the little cub in the village. Zhuo Buhei thought for a moment, turned his head as if looking for someone, and finally found Xiong Tian in the corner, "What are you doing here? Why don't you come and eat barbecue." "It's delicious. !" Zhuo Buhei drooled. Xiong Tian also swallowed his saliva, and Xiong Guo, not to mention Xiong Ling, was drooling. Although the curly brown bear was more vegetarian, it was not that he didn't eat meat, but that he had less opportunities to eat meat before, otherwise Xiong Tian wouldn't know how to eat meat. I have a deep memory of the flavor of Crunchy Dragon. Xiong Tian wiped the corners of the mouths of his younger brothers and sisters with a big slap. The other bears didn't dare to come forward because they didn't dare to eat. Meat is a very precious food. They are not villagers and dare not come forward. "Now, here you go, take it." Zhuo Buhei held back his saliva and handed the meat skewers to Xiong Tian. Seeing that Xiong Tian didn't accept it, he thought for a moment and said, "You can eat it. When you finish eating, I will Don't be afraid if I touch you." Xiong Tian looked at his younger brothers and sisters, took the meat skewers, and refused to eat them. He gave them to his younger brothers and sisters first. Xiong Guo and Xiong Ling swallowed a big mouthful of saliva and said that he would not eat them from his brother. So fragrant. When Zhuo Le saw this scene, he didn't stop Bu Hei, but ran to ask his father: "Can't bear people eat meat?" " ?" After Zhuo Yan heard this, he saw Bu Hei giving Xiong Tian and others barbecue, and couldn't help but say : "I forgot. Let's do this. Brother and sister Xiong Tian will go to your place, and let those who are timid eat barbecue among the sub-orcs." These little curly bears look like orcs, but they are actually quite timid. During this period of time, the little bears have been very honest and honest. They always answer all questions and are not lazy at work. They do whatever they are asked to do. In fact, the villagers still have good intentions towards the little bears. Some people even said that the bear skin was a bit hard and smelly, and they wondered whether they could be worn with clothes. "Brother Zhuo Yan, I'll go." Xiao Xian took the barbecue and went to arrange it. Zhuo Yan watched the seventeen bear people quickly mingle in various barbecue piles. Everyone took good care of the bear people - chatting and sharing the meat with the bear people who were too embarrassed to take the barbecue. The bear people looked dull, that kind of thing. I was so moved that I didn't know what to say. It seemed that after eating this barbecue, the bear people became the villagers of their Hundred Beast Village. I didn't even finish the meat in the end, it was too much. However, we still ate quite a lot. Everyone was greedy for meat for too long, and their stomachs were round after eating. Zhuo Yan felt that he would not need to eat any regular meals in the next two or three days, so he could just bring a handful of peanuts with him to take a few bites. Late at night, the grassland is very cool, and the air is still filled with the aroma of meat. Zhuo Yan said: "Let's clean it up tomorrow morning. Sprinkle the remaining meat with salt and put it in the big factory to dry tomorrow." Everyone finished the cleaning with quick hands and feet and went back to their homes. Those who love cleanliness went to the lake to clean. . Zhuo Yan and A Yin took the cub back home first. They didn't feel anything when they sat down, but they stood up and took a few steps. "It's so good." It's so satisfying. Ah Yin said: "Brother, I'll carry you." "No, let's take a walk back." This kind of night, the cool wind is blowing, and the smell of barbecue is still on the body - if it was actually a bit boring before, but I haven't eaten it in a year and a half After eating barbecue, even if you are full now, the smell is still fragrant. There were three children playing and joking around, chattering little secrets. Really happy. After going back and resting for a while, Zhuo Yan and A Yin took the three children to do some cleaning. Under the moonlight, in the shallow lake, Zhuo Kang Zhuo Le turned into an animal shape and swam in the lake with his younger brother Bu Hei on his back. Ah Yin looked at her brother for a while, and then she also turned into a beast shape and wanted to carry her brother on her back. hey-hey. Zhuo Yan was lying on A Yin's back. He could see the moon and the quiet and prosperous stars when he looked up. He turned over and sat up and said, "A Yin, the sky is very peaceful and beautiful." " Yes." A Yin was also very happy. It was late at night, and the three beast-shaped people were shaking the water. A Yin was carrying his brother on his back, Zhuo Yan was holding A Yin's leather skirt, Zhuo Le was carrying Bu Hei, and Zhuo Kang was running in front. Everyone went home to sleep. It was a rare and comfortable experience. On the second day, everyone in the village got up a little late, but everyone was in high spirits and had a smile on their face. Everyone worked separately, processing the leftover meat from yesterday, cleaning the square, and tanning the leather. The giant python is fifteen meters long. The color of the python's body is black and gold. The skins removed are a lot like a hill. The teeth of the earth dragon beast can easily sew the skins. This is no problem. , Zhuo Yan said yesterday that these python skins were collected and used to make waistcoats for all the orcs in the hunting team. It's a bit like soft armor, able to withstand ordinary scratches and attacks. Two more things, there's not much salt left, they have to boil the salt. They had done this before. They could see the sea within half a month of flying south. After the first crop of crops was harvested last year, they could only eat half of the salt they brought with them. Zhuo Yan organized a small salt-cooking team. Amandan took the lead, and there were some orcs and sub-orcs, plus two geese and one eagle. This salt-cooking team went directly to the seaside to take root. Aman, Xia Shu and the sub-orcs from the werewolf tribe brought filters and transparent buckets. The orcs collected firewood, built sheds, chiseled stone pots, and boiled salt on the spot. They only needed to bring Just bring back the salt. There are thirteen people in the salt cooking team. The tools are still there, but some of the filters have to be replaced. The sea water is better filtered. It does not need to be filtered three times like salt mud. The sea water is clearer. Of course, it needs to be boiled slower. Last year they stayed there for a full month in Oman and brought back four large rattan baskets of salt. "I know, let's leave tomorrow. We have compiled the filter." Aman said. Zhuo Yan nodded, "Be safe and bring more food." "Hey, there's no prey over there, I got it." After Aman finished speaking, he went to find the salt cooking team. Zhuo Yan found the bear man and said, "Don't rush to work, I have something to tell you." The seventeen people stood upright as soon as they saw the village chief, like elementary school students who made mistakes, waiting for the teacher to lecture them. Zhuo Yan: ... "You have stayed in our village for so long, do you have any thoughts about the future?" Zhuo Yan smiled and was concerned. Xiong Tian was stunned. Xiong Ping and the older ones were afraid and said, "Village, village chief, are you going to drive us away?"

"Ah?! Do you want us to leave?" Xiong Tian reacted and repeated it again.

Zhuo Yan said: "I don't mean to drive you away, but I want to ask you what you think in the future. When I first came to the village, I saw that you were not used to it and were very scared. After living here for so many days, I have to ask you whether you want to stay." "I still want to leave. You bear people can form a tribe on your own."

"We can't force you, let me hear what you want."

Xiong Ping and the others asked hopefully, "I, we don't want to leave, can we stay?" "We can work, village chief." "Yes, we are very obedient."

"Of course we have to work. Everyone in Baishou Village is contributing." Zhuo Yan nodded, "It seems that you want to become a villager." "

Xiong Tian nodded repeatedly like a chicken pecking at rice. The little bears standing next to them looked at the village chief expectantly with round eyes. Can they stay?

Zhuo Yan: It's quite cute.

Then he said seriously: "Okay, if you are all willing to stay, then you have to follow the arrangements."

"We will listen.", "We will listen to whatever you say, village chief."

Zhuo Yan got to the point: "I want you Bear People to find Go to the mine - just in this continent, run farther away and see if you can find black ore, the kind used by the black armored soldiers, or something similar. Don't be afraid, don't be anxious, just listen to me."

" You bear people have very sensitive noses, so I need you to find and lead the way. I will send other orcs in the village to go with you. Once we find it, we will all dig together. "

Working will definitely be hard, but it will never be said that it will be beaten with a whip and no distinction will be made. Work day and night without stopping.

Xiong Tian went from the uneasiness and panic of 'looking for the black stone' to slowly calming down as the village chief spoke - the bears were really frightened when they heard this, but they knew that the village chief and the former black armored soldier city lord Not the same.

It's really different.

Give them a big house to live in, give them food, and arrange some work for them. They can rest when they are tired and will not beat them. The villagers here will also give them peanuts to eat and some soaked leaves for them to wash their skins.

The most important thing is that they really don't want to leave.

"Village, village chief, I can do it." Xiong Tian said.

Xiong Ping: "We can also look for it."

"Me too.", "I can.", "Please don't drive me away. My legs are slow but my nose is still good. I can lead the way."

And It's okay for the healer to say that he's healed.

Zhuo Yan once again appeased everyone. He was not a landowner who exploited the bear people like this. The bear people just agreed, and then it was all about arrangements. It was impossible for a team of people to take turns looking for him in several directions. The efficiency was too slow.

Divide into four teams when looking for the Black Stone Mine. Orcs, Bearmen, and Feathermen form one team as usual. Feathermen keep watch in the sky and can report danger when they see it, or if the way forward is blocked and need to take a detour, etc. Orcs are strong and strong in hunting and fighting, preventing predators from jumping out and injuring people.

The bears only need to find the black stone mine.

There are now 481 people in the Hundred Beast Village - in one and a half years, there have been 38 more cubs in their village, and there are currently thirteen sub-orcs and one male with a big belly in his arms. The male was pregnant with Kong Lu, which was really amazing. When the news came out, the orcs looked at Ma Ha differently, thinking that Ma Ha was very powerful.

He is the first among the Mahabeasts to be able to impregnate a feathered male.

When Ah Yin came back to tell him, Zhuo Yan was also embarrassed.

They also chatted for a while.

"Then Maha has his tail raised? He must be proud of it."

Ah Yin said: "No, brother, Maha initially said that he was pregnant with a baby and stuffed hay balls in his waistcoat, but as soon as he ran away, The grass fell down."

"!" Zhuo Yan didn't expect it, with a smile on his face, "Maha likes Kong Lu very much, and Kong Lu must be embarrassed to do this."

Peacocks are very face-saving.

Kong Xingxing must have been shocked by the fact that the male peacock was pregnant.

But the pregnancy really couldn't be hidden, especially the fact that Maha stuffed hay for himself was so stupid. When the orcs found out, they immediately told the sub-orcs they were dating, and within one morning, the whole village knew about it. Kong Lu is pregnant.

Kong Lu 'beat' Ma Ha, and then admitted that there was nothing he could do.

The whole village thought of what the village chief said when Kong Lumaha got married - there were many light spots falling on the two of them. They were immediately shocked, but they quickly accepted it. The village chief was someone who had been to the Tree of Life. , the god also warned the village chief of the disaster.

So the village chief knew that this was a normal thing.

Having said that, when Zhuo Yan was compiling the list of the 'small team looking for black ore', of course he had to skip the pregnant sub-orc companions. The orcs who were just pregnant could go hunting, and the ones who were about to give birth could patrol the village and build houses. By doing such activities as cultivating land and cultivating land, I can go back in time to accompany my partner in giving birth.

Their village has the most orcs, but the number of orcs assigned to the 'Treasure Hunting Team' is also in short supply.

"Four teams, each team has two orcs, two bears and one feathered man."

Zhuo Yan organized the four small teams one day later. On this day, there was a meeting in the square, and all the villagers arrived. Zhuo Yan said From now on, the bear people will become the villagers of Beast Village.

Everyone is still very welcome. I have recently eaten enough to satisfy my cravings, and I am happy every day.

"...The bear people have a keen sense of smell. They need to lead the way to find black ore. Is the black ore the same as the black gravel of the lion tribe? I think it is about the same. If we find the black ore, we can forge some weapons in the village, and Boss Kong can also do it. Burning some needles will have a great impact on the future of the entire village. "

Zhuo Yan has always been straightforward with the villagers about his general decisions.

The orcs are simple and sincere, and don't worry about the future. They live in the present, but they are not stupid either - it's just that they didn't like to use their brains before. They just did what the leader of the tribe said. When Zhuo Yan becomes the leader of the tribe, including becoming the village chief, he will say Some arrangements and reasons for the tribe.

"Everyone should know that in addition to our Hundred Beast Village, there are other orcs, such as Black Armor City and Blue Sea City. Our village is very friendly, but we don't know if the city lords of these two cities and the orcs below are related to each other. We are the same, if they are bad and find us, the orcs in our village are brave and want to destroy our village, buy and sell the orcs and sub-orcs in our village, work for them, bully and enslave our cubs. "

The orcs and sub-orcs who were standing around were already filled with anger.

Because the bear man said before that those black-armored soldiers would beat them with whips and peel off their skins while they were still alive and sell them to others.

It's really hateful, so bad, so bad.

"We do not take the initiative to bully or fight other orc cities or tribes, but we must be ready at any time. If other orc cities come to bully us, we must have weapons in our hands to fight them back and protect our village, tribe, and cubs. ."

"Black ore can be made into weapons."

"Now, I have formed a team, and four teams are going to look for black ore in different directions. This is very important..."

In the past, orcs thought that hunting was the most glorious and brave activity of orcs. Disdain to do other things, such as picking, is the work of sub-orcs. But now, their thinking has changed. Black Ore Orcs.

These jobs are glorious.

Work is not divided according to orcs and sub-orcs. As long as the village needs it, anyone can do it.

After Zhuo Yan finished talking about the list, the selected orcs were very happy and they would complete the task well.

"Pay attention to safety on the road, bring salt peels and some food. If you encounter danger, run away if you can't fight."

The village chief said these words every time he went out. The orcs are used to it, but every time they hear it they are happy and feel warm in their hearts.

Four teams, each with five people, will set off to the southeast, northwest and northwest early tomorrow morning.

Xiong Tian said to his younger brothers and sisters at night: "I will come back when I find it. You must be obedient in the village. If you have any problems, go to Zhuo Buhei." He felt that the village chief was very powerful and very busy, so his younger brothers and sisters should go to Zhuo for minor problems. Not black.

"You can change into our original form and follow Zhuo Buhei."

"Ah? Brother, you didn't let us change into our original form before." Xiong Guo said.

Xiong Tian: "I misunderstood at the beginning. He is very nice. Even if he wants to touch us, he won't touch us randomly -" He thought about Zhuo Buhei touching his tail, and would say things like "It's so soft and good to touch." Xiong Tian's face All turned red.

"Forget it, you should work hard, there shouldn't be anything else."

It's very safe here, the orcs are powerful, and they won't go hungry.

Xiong Guo and Xiong Ling couldn't bear to leave their brother, so they hugged him and gave him a hug. Xiong Tian finally promised his siblings that they would search carefully and come back early, and the three of them fell asleep holding each other in their arms.

Early the next morning, the members of the small team that set out to hunt for treasure were waiting in the square. After everyone arrived, they set off directly. What Xiong Tian didn't expect was that the orcs A Bai and Xiao Xian gave each of them a rattan basket with some potatoes and peanuts in it, and also prepared skins for them.

"Hey, use this when sleeping. Eat when you're hungry."

"Just tell me if you have something to say. Amu may seem rude and talkative, but he's actually a very nice person."

"Don't worry, we'll keep an eye on your younger brothers and sisters."

Xiong Tian I felt that the people in the village were treating the bear people better, so I felt more at ease with my younger brother and sister staying in the village. In fact, it was not good to follow him, it was too dangerous outside.

"You are now villagers of the Hundred Beast Village. We are all one. Take it." Abai smiled and spoke to the bear man.

Xiong Tian suddenly thought, yes, we are also villagers of Baishou Village.

This is their new home.

Set off!

Zhuo Yan was counting the days. He counted them and compared them with the summaries of the days he drew last year. It wasn't because he remembered wrongly or because of special circumstances. The days were very similar in the past two years.

In this world, according to the number of winter to winter, there are four hundred and several days in a year -

winter is the shortest, about fifty-six days. Spring lasts about four months, and summer is about the same as winter, not as hot as before - so it is more convenient to boil salt near the seaside. In autumn, which lasts nearly five months, crops grow more luxuriantly and produce a lot more.

It's easy to add bears, build houses, and reclaim new land.

What he thought was that if black ore was found and it was inconvenient to transport it over a long distance, then just like the salt boiling team, they would build a forge near the black ore.

Gotta get ready.

Chapter 117:

The salt-making team at the beach consists of six orcs, five sub-orcs, and two feathered men in the sky - the Diao Ming sister and brother. Diao Ming is Kong Xi's partner. The two have five cubs. Two of the cubs were from before, the two eagle babies that Kong Xi brought to Zhuoyan's first market.

The remaining three cubs were born last winter by Diao Ming.

A baby eagle and two peacock cubs.

The peacock clan were all happy after hearing this. The clan leader Kong Xingxing even ran to take a look, but he said: With us peacocks, it must be barely enough to see.

In fact, I am quite proud of it.

Kong Huo and some other 'good guys' deliberately asked: Kong Xi's two peacock cubs and Blizzard -

before they even finished asking, Kong Xingxing interrupted and said directly: Blizzard, Blizzard, Blizzard, his cubs are the most beautiful. Yes, I didn't realize that I inherited the most beautiful parts from him and the big guy. Blizzard is a masterpiece from God. Rough meaning.

The people who were watching the melon eating, including the village chief, were smiling so hard that their faces were almost broken.

Kong Xingxing knew that a few people were watching him for fun, so he said directly and coolly: "All the bastards in the world are my Blizzard's good-looking people! Just laugh! Humph." Then he left, not caring about these people.

Everyone knows the temperament of Kong Xingxing, the leader of the Peacock Clan. Kong Xi didn't think anything of it, but when he looked at the cubs, he found that the big cub and the three little cubs were cute, and they looked good everywhere. But Diao Ming - he loved the two little peacock cubs very much.

In the past at Yuren Mountain, Diao Ming could not stand Kong Xingxing. Kong Xingxing had a bad temper and would judge people by their nostrils. That time, Diao Ming looked at his two little peacock cubs lovingly and said, "Kong Xingxing is right, our peacock cubs are the prettiest."

Adhering to the previous tradition, Diao Ming still went out to work. ', Kong Xi is taking care of the children at home, and the two eldest sons and the second son are now old enough to be used as boys, and they follow Lele and others to herd sheep in the village.

Diao Ming felt relieved when he came out to dry the salt, but he just missed the stream.

Diao Ming's younger brother Diao Liang is single. Their parents died young. Diao Ming has been very strong and strong since he was a child. The eldest brother is many years old and raised Diao Liang as half a son. Kong Xingxing came back and said that before the disaster, Diao Ming was worried about finding a partner for his younger brother.

Diaoliang is a bit thinner, but she likes someone like her 'brother-in-law'. In short, she likes someone who is as beautiful as a peacock.

But all the peacocks left and disappeared, leaving only those with mates on the top of each mountain. Diao Ming was very angry at first, you are so obsessed with my friend.

First, he beat Diao Liang violently. After Diao Liang held his head and explained, Diao Ming stopped and looked at his brother up and down. Either she said, just like her brother, or Kong Xingxing and the others were there, they were not looking at people with their nostrils. Instead, you use your toes to look at people!

Is her brother the only one who still wants to pursue Peacock? It's impossible to think about it for eight lifetimes.

Diao Ming then said: "...the peacock clan has left, and all the mountains that remain have mates. Just tell me, who can you beat? Pry off other people's mates?"

"Sister, I like to leave. A few peacocks."

"Forget it, I won't push you to find a partner." Diao Ming thinks that her brother will be a bachelor for the rest of his life. It doesn't matter. She has a partner anyway. Xiaoxi is so good-looking and has a good personality. So gentle and lovely.

Unexpectedly, two days later, Kong Xingxing, the disappeared leader of the Peacock clan, came back with his people. He said that a disaster was coming and that he would take away the Peacock clan members this time.

Diao Ming grew up in the Diao clan and had a partner and children. Zai, there is still a field with a good harvest. She can harvest millet, mung beans, and peanuts to eat next year, so why should she leave? She didn't want to. At that time, Diao Ming had made up her mind. She was not even willing to come to Xiao Xi, so she had to fight it out.

But she never expected that it wasn't Xiaoxi who was the first to say he wanted to leave, but his younger brother was packing up his things in the cane basket at home - not just his own, but also the whole family's to leave with the peacocks.

Diao Ming: ...

Of course Kong Xi is looking at Diao Ming eagerly.

"The patriarch finally came back."

"Then do you really believe the disaster he said?"

Kong Xi didn't say whether he believed it or not, but just looked at his partner eagerly. Diao Ming is cold-hearted because she is a little jealous. Kong Xingxing and others just showed up and said a word, and they were able to trick her partner into following them and believing what they said.

What a disaster-

Diao Liang screamed the loudest, even rolled around, and even encouraged his two nephews to follow the peacocks.

"The peacocks are so beautiful.", "Everyone smells good.", "Sister, let's go.", "If you don't leave, let's go. I'll take my brother-in-law and children with me. You can stay." OK."

Diao Ming:? ? ?

She really wanted to beat up Diaoliang.

The time when Kong Xingxing went back to call for help - on the top of Yuren Mountain, almost all those who had peacock companions had troubles in their nests. They cried, made trouble, and scratched their faces due to coercion or inducement, but someone like Diao Liang, Only one serving.

Later, Diao Ming was against four: her partner, her brother, and her two sons all wanted to run away with Kong Xingxing and his group. Diao Ming was angry, but she still followed because once the four left, she was the only one left. , peanuts, mung beans, and millet are not all good to eat.

She worked so hard in farming and collecting just to raise the creek and the cubs.

Then disaster struck and everyone survived. Slowly, as time passed, he came out of the grief of the death of his clan members. Diao Liang would occasionally sigh and say: Fortunately, my brother-in-law and I were of the same mind.

Diao Ming: ...I think you deserve a beating.

In the sky flying south, the two brothers and sisters are "watching" as the Diao Liang and Diao Liang sing. There are still jungles and grasslands below. Flying in the air, you can see the endless sea in the distance, and you can't see the slightest trace of Diao Ren Mountain - Zhaodu I can't find it. I only know that the approximate direction is south, but I can't tell where it is specifically.

"Fortunately -" Diao Liang raised his head.

Diao Ming couldn't hold back, flew over and hit his brother on the head with his wings.

Both of them were actually a little sad, and that would be gone now. Diao Liang howled and said, "I just miss the children."

"Those are my and Xiao Xi's cubs too."

"I didn't say they were mine." Diao Liang really liked to make his sister angry.

The two siblings were fighting each other in the sky, and the six orcs running below were used to it. However, after the two siblings fought for a while, Diao Ming let go first, dived, and screamed twice.

There was a language barrier between the orcs and the feathered men when they were in their original form, but the team had known each other for a long time and had a tacit understanding of cooperation. All six orcs knew that Diao Ming had found his prey and immediately stopped in his tracks.

After the eagle was lit, I realized that there was something going west in the jungle.

He looked stupid and didn't notice the danger.

Diao Liang landed on the top of a short tree and called softly twice, meaning: It's not big, I can't recognize it, and I don't know what it is.

Diao Ming couldn't tell, but they hadn't hunted before, so they didn't know that some animals were normal, so they left them to the orcs below.

Daan and the five orcs looked at each other.

The sub-orcs all got off the orcs' backs. Aman led everyone to wait where they were. Two orcs were left here, and Dahn took three orcs to catch the prey. They didn't bring much food, so they consumed it along the way and ate whatever they encountered.

When I passed through the grassland a few days ago, there were a lot of grass rats eating.

There are so many of these things, and they have a lot of life. Although other prey animals have lost their lives, the grass rats are nesting one after another. Going south to the sea, there is a large grassland with many grass rat holes. Aman also caught a lot of them and peeled them off. Spread it with salt and take it to the beach to dry and eat.

Dan and the two orcs followed the direction given by the Diao Ming siblings. Diao Ming also flew in the air to follow, while Diao Liang stayed on the top of the tree, paying attention to the safety of the remaining team.

Everyone has a tacit understanding of division of labor.

Aman chatted with the orcs who were traveling with him. After a while, there was a noise in the woods. The five people stopped talking and looked at the treetops. Diao Liang shouted. All five of them had smiles on their faces.

Dan and the others are back and have caught their prey.

It was a prey that the four tribes of orcs had never seen before. It was as big as a tusk pig, round, with a pointed mouth, and its fur was very short. At first glance, I thought it had no hair, but when I got my hands on it, I discovered that it had short stubble hair. It is black and white, with a red mouth.

Already dead.

Dahn and the others separated the skin and flesh and dismantled the bones.

"What on earth is this? The bones are so small, with only a row of cartilage, like a fish."

"I don't know."

"First put salt on it and put it away. When you catch a grass mouse or something else, try to see if the meat has any It's not poisonous," Aman said.

Several sub-orcs are already busy.

There are many unseen prey in the new world, and they all do this. After quickly packing up the meat, everyone carried it on their backs and started on the road again. It was getting dark in the evening and everyone found a place to rest. They were almost at the beach.

"I feel like there are too many preys.", "There are too many preys.", "That python is so delicious.", "I don't know what this black and white one with a pointed mouth tastes like.", "From now on, our village will be the same as before. It's great to be able to hunt." "I heard from the bear people that they have a lot of prey, but the big ones are hunted by the black-armored soldiers, and their small tribe can only hunt some small ones."

"Xiong Tian is not talking about them . There are more than a hundred people in the tribe. Is this still small? "We used to have only over a hundred people in the werewolf tribe."

"It's small, he said, there are many people in Black Armor City, and small tribes like them are scattered here and there. " There are a lot of them."

"The man from Black Armor City is really bad. The village chief is right. We need to prepare well before those bad guys find out. I hope the bear man can find the black ore."

After running for another day, we arrived at the evening of the same day. seaside.

The stone wooden house built last year is still there at the entrance of the forest not far from the sea. The house uses ready-made trees as pillars. The orcs moved the stones and mud to build them up, and fixed them with bamboos and put up the roof - in short It looks crude at first glance, but is actually quite strong and can protect you from wind and rain.

There are two houses, one is larger for sleeping, and everyone has a floor bed with bamboo and wooden beds inside. The other is a simpler one for cooking, and there are two stone pots in it.

The group of people finally arrived after a long journey, and their faces were still relaxed. The orcs noticed something was wrong first, "Someone has been here."

"Maybe it's not a human, it's prey."

The sub-orcs were relieved, but now they were on guard. Dan and several orcs glanced at each other. The two of them protected the sub-orcs and went back first, while the three orcs went in to take a look.

There were traces of weeds and footprints on the ground, not like large prey.

"Like... a human."

"Human?" The orc man was surprised when he heard this.

The two siblings, Lion Man and Diao Ming, reacted and their faces lit up. Human - their clan is very close to here. Could it be that the sea water washed them over? Are their clan members not dead yet?

"Don't get excited yet." The werewolf reassured his companions.

The excited Lion Man and Diao Ming siblings nodded, and the excitement in their eyes calmed down, because too much time had passed - if their clansmen knew that they went to the Leopard Man Clan and Snow Deer Mountain, if they survived They will always come to them.

And last year, no one showed up here to cook the salt. It must have been after they left, or this year, that someone came here. Who could it be.

Dan and the orcs went in and looked around, "No one is inside."

"No one?" Aman said and went in. The wooden bed in the house was packed out. Before they left last year, they dismantled the wooden bed and placed it against the wall. , now the wooden bed is put together.

A voice came from the house next to him: "Aman, come and see, someone has made a fire in the kitchen, and there is still some water in the stone pot."

Seawater is not drinkable, and the more you drink, the thirstier you become. The reason why they took root in this area and built a house to boil salt is because Close to the forest, there is a small stream in which you can drink water - it would be faster if the orcs ran, but the sub-orcs would have to walk for a while.

"There is still some water, and there are only two beds pushed together. It seems there are not many people."

"And he is a bit smart and knows how to use the stove to make a fire." Aman saw some firewood in the stove and thought for a moment, "Let's settle down first.

"Pay more attention in the next few days."

"I just looked at the footprints. They are very small and narrow. They are smaller than those of us sub-orcs. They are probably not tall and very thin.

" The prey is also small."

The sub-orcs were talking to each other, not as wary as before. In the past, when I was in the tribe, some orcs and sub-orcs didn't use their brains. They just followed orders and did whatever the clan leader told them to do. There were also some people who were more flexible in their thinking.

Now that it has become a village of beasts, Zhuo Yan may not know that all the villagers used to be quick-thinking, but he has many partners who he can rely on and understand. For example, the task of boiling salt-Zhuo Yan leaves it to A Man, and A Man chooses the right one. The sub-orcs and orcs went there.

And gradually, the villagers now like to use their brains.

Everyone put their things away, made the beds, and laid out straw mats. Two of the orcs went out to fetch fresh water. The two orcs stood on a high place and watched. Everyone took turns washing up. After running for half a month, they finally had a rest.

Wait until tomorrow to start boiling the salt.

The orcs hugged their partners, occupied their respective wooden beds, and rested with their eyes closed. There is also a small wooden house above the largest 'pillar' of the wooden house, which is the residence of Diao Ming's brother and sister.

Late at night, the sea in the distance is pitch black, and you can only hear the sound of waves lapping on the beach. Ai Xi and her tribe, three people in total, all mermaid females, bathed in the moonlight, leaned out of the sea, and slowly arrived on the beach.

"Ai Xi, do we still want to stay here?"

"I don't know where to go except here." Ai Xi arrived at the shore. When the mermaid's tail touched the sand and stones, the fish tail retreated into slender white pairs in the moonlight. Legs, followed by her tribe sisters.

Pearl sighed, her beautiful face showing sadness. Lan Bei had a more lively personality and said, "If we go back, it would be even worse if we were caught by the patrol soldiers of Lanhai City."

"I know, I'm not dissatisfied with Ai Xi's decision, but there are only three of us here, what? No one, no clansmen, no relatives, it's really boring. "

Ai Xi is actually only seventeen years old. Before the disaster, she was still a carefree little girl, but now, she is here with her clansmen sisters. We have been fleeing at sea for more than a year, and everyone has been adrift for too long.

Hearing Pearl's words at this time, Ai Xi's face also showed wavering. In fact, she also felt very bored. Although this place was far away from Lanhai City, the armored soldiers would definitely not be able to catch them, but it was a cowardly act to live here all the time.

They were running away, hiding far away, not looking for their clansmen.

"Then let's pack up the things in the cabin and let's go." Ashe said. They had moved the wooden bed and had to return it to its original position.

When Pearl heard this, she was a little hesitant. She wanted to leave here, but she was also afraid that she would be caught by the patrolling soldiers if she swam to the depths of the deep sea.

"Ai Xi, I don't know what's wrong with me. I feel so sad. Sometimes I keep thinking about it over and over again. Sometimes I wonder if all our people are dead. I also think that I should have died in that disaster.

" Zhuo Yan is here, and he can definitely tell that the three little girls are a little depressed - people are still in social groups, and they have been alone for too long. Even though there are three of them, after a long time, repeating the same words and eating the same things every day, they must be in a bad mood. .

In fact, it was like this when they were in the sea, so Ai Xi suggested that they go to Yuren's place to have a look - they had heard Yuren say before that the three of them were in a much better mood now that they had a goal. Now that they have found the location that Yu Ren once said, without seeing Yu Ren's mountain, the three of them have become idle and aimless again.

As for looking for their clansmen...

they woke up after the disaster and went to the domain location, but they didn't see any clansmen.

Lan Bei hugged Pearl and said, "It's okay. We will find our tribe members. Our relatives will definitely still be there." She said, but she was actually very scared.

The three of them came ashore and transformed into human figures, with their long red hair flowing out on both sides of their bodies. They stepped on the gravel with bare feet and headed towards the wooden house.

In the small wooden house on the treetop, the two brothers and sisters Diao Ming did not sleep deeply. They knew that the wooden house had been tampered with. Not to mention them on the first night, the orcs in the house below did not dare to sleep soundly. Sure enough, the siblings moved their wings and saw people walking up from the sea.

Mermaid——?

The siblings looked at each other and yelped softly.

In the wooden house, Dahn and several orcs opened their eyes instantly.

Ai Xi and the three of them didn't know it yet, so they walked towards the wooden house. The door of the wooden house was closed. When they were three or four meters away, Ai Xi suddenly stopped. Lan Bei was confused, why didn't he leave?

"Go back, go back, come to the sea quickly -" Ai Xi stammered and said hurriedly.

She heard noises in the cabin and smelled danger.

But what was faster was that the orcs inside jumped out first. When the three little girls saw the beast form, they turned pale and weak with fear. Pearl hummed a song first, with a trembling voice but a long and pleasant sound. The orcs who came out were briefly confused by the sound. , the movement slowed down.

However, Pearl tripped and fell, and it was too late when Ashe and Lanbei caught her.

The three of them were stranded on the shore.

Under the moonlight, what came out of the wooden house was something they had never seen before - a huge animal with sharp teeth and claws. It should be a land animal, what kind of carnivore did the feather people say?

"Boom!" Diao Ming picked up the clothes and hurriedly put them on, ran to the shore, and shouted: "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, we are feather people, they are orcs, they all have partners -"

Oh, there is no one, this unimportant.

There are no orcs in their Hundred Beast Village who would force female orcs to subjugate themselves to male sub-orcs.

Aman and others also woke up and ran from the house to the beach. They saw three little girls trembling with fear. They were stunned for a moment and said, "I'll get clothes." "Let's put clothes on them first."

They looked at them . It doesn't really seem like it can hurt anyone.

Ai Xi and the other three thought they would die here, but they didn't expect - they looked over again and saw that those scary big animals had turned into humans and were also wearing leather. They had heard from the Feathered Man that orcs would wear leather skirts.

"Don't be afraid, I am Diao Ren, my name is Diao Ming." Diao Ming said hurriedly.

Aman handed over the clothes in his hand, "You guys put them on first."

After the three of them put on their clothes, their fear faded away. Lan Bei was the boldest and looked curiously at these orcs and sub-orcs. They were so tall, strong, and good-looking. Very thick, like a big tree in the forest.

Aman looked at the three little girls, who still had childish faces. They were definitely not adults, so he said that they built the cabin. Don't be afraid, we won't hurt you -

"Of course, if you have bad intentions, If our thoughts hurt us, we won't be lenient."

Ai Xi quickly waved his hand and said, "We want to find Yu Ren."

"What are you looking for?" Diao Ming asked.

The three hesitated for a while, and in the end they were afraid that these feathered orcs would think they were bad people, so they hurriedly explained. After hearing this, Aman nodded, "That's right. We believe you."

"Because I was bored and had nowhere to go. I heard about the Yuren before, so I went to find the Yuren."

The sub-orcs all nodded, with very considerate and comforting eyes. Looking at each other, "We all understand.", "Yes, if the village chief hadn't led the way and helped us settle down, we should be like you."

"It's better if we have more people, it won't be so boring."

"You guys It's really hard to swim in the sea for so long."

"The bear man has been away for a long time. Oh, the bear man is also an orc. After the disaster, he got separated from his tribe and walked for a long time and ended up in our village."

Ai Xi and the others listened . Listening to what the orc man said, his eyes gradually became wet.

"Do you want to go back to the cabin and sleep together?" Aman asked. He was a little sleepy.

The three of Ai Xi shook their heads hurriedly, they were still a little scared. Aman smiled and said, "I guess you are also afraid of us, so what will you do?"

"We can rest in the sea." It is still very safe in the sea.

Aman: "Okay, I won't disturb you anymore. Let's go back to bed first. We have to cook salt tomorrow."

"Cook salt? We can do it too," Lan Bei said excitedly.

Aman just smiled and did not answer the next words - he felt that these three mermaid females had just never seen anyone else and had been bored for too long. He chatted with them and the conversation ended here. If he said, "You know how to cook salt" Then you can come with us', these three mermaids must be scared again.

They should just do their own thing.

Everyone returned to the house, and Diao Ming's sister and brother also went to the treetop wooden house. They saw the three fishes returning to the sea. Diao Liang leaned against his sister and praised: "They are so beautiful."

Diao Ming glanced at his brother, "They They are afraid of us and live in water. "

Feathered people, including orcs, hate getting their fur wet."

Diao Liang: ...

"Sister, don't always think that I have bad intentions. I am very loyal to Peacock."

"Give up. Which of the three single Peacocks do you think likes you?"

Currently single Peacock: Peacock. Fire, Kong Yuan, Kong Yue.

"...Sister, are you trying to trick me and want to know who I like? I won't tell you."

"I'm just warning you, be careful not to have your legs broken by a peacock."

"Huh."

The conversation in the wooden house was completely opposite . , the sub-orcs pity the three mermaids, "They are so thin, so skinny, their life must be very hard.", "It's so pitiful to be so thin, ugh.", "Aman, will they leave?"

Aman, damn. Looking at Dan, he said: "I don't think so. If we are too enthusiastic, we will scare them, but we and they each do their own thing. Anyway, it will take more than a month to boil the salt. They have nowhere to go, so they should be able to They came to talk to us."

"This is the first time I've seen a mermaid."

"Me too."

Dan reminded us after hearing Aman's words, "Don't listen to them when they sing. "

" Boil the salt and don't leave the orcs around."

Several orcs opened their eyes and nodded. The mermaids looked ugly and dry, but the humming tune was very strange. They were moving too slowly just now. They would never catch prey like this before. They were still a little dangerous, so they had to keep an eye on them.

The orcs were curious about the mermaid, and the orcs were on guard. The Diao Ming siblings were already asleep on the treetops above the roof. Ai Xi and the three people who swam deep into the sea also talked about what had just happened, with wonder on their young faces.

"They are really orcs.", "They are so fierce.", "I'm afraid of the breath of orcs.", "I'm scared too, but the orcs are very friendly.", "They also lent us clothes to wear. Their The clothes are the same as those in Blue Sea City."

"The difference is that the clothes in Blue Sea City are woven by the Blue Mermaids. I heard they are very smooth and sparkle under the sunlight, but only the city lords and nobles can wear them."

"They are made by orcs . The clothes are very soft. I have never seen the yarn woven by the Blue Creepers. I only heard from the elders that the Blue Creepers weave day and night for a long time before they can weave a little bit, so it is very precious, but the orcs can give us the clothes."

"Their clothes should be very precious, right?"

"The sub-orcs are so nice."

The three of them had not seen strangers for a long time. They chatted in the sea for a long time. The three of them looked at each other. No one proposed to leave. They all wanted to stay in the sea. After staying in the sea for a while, the sub-orc man said that he would boil salt on the shore for more than a month. They would just take a look and not go to the shore. No problem.

"Don't worry, we are wary and we will definitely not say anything about our clan."

"Yes!"

"We can't say that our singing will confuse people, and we can't say that we are tearful people. The tears we shed when we cry will Even if we turn into pearls, we can't tell where our clan's domain is."

Even though the clan members are gone, the domain has been destroyed and cannot be found, they have listened to the advice of their elders since they were young and should be wary of outsiders and not talk about this or that.

The three of them promised each other that they would never reveal it easily.

The next evening, the three of them returned to the sea. Lan Bei felt guilty: "Well, today they were barbecuing on the shore. I saw and recognized the sharp-billed goose, which was edible. They thanked me and gave me some. I, they He said that the sound we hummed last night was a bit confusing, and that we were chatting and playing together and could not sing. I explained that our singing could confuse people, but we would definitely not sing to our friends..."

Ash Pearl: ...

the two consoled each other. Lan Bei, it's okay, just singing, and they did sing in a hurry last night. The orcs and sub-orcs heard it, and they don't blame Lan Bei.

The third night, in the sea.

Pearl felt a little guilty, "Today when we talked about disaster, they talked about the four tribes of orcs and the Feathered People. I, I just talked about our domain..."

This time, it was Lan Bei Ai Xi who comforted Pearl.

It's okay, it's okay, anyway, our tribe's territory has been destroyed, there are no tribesmen there anymore, and the orcs can't swim, so they can't be found even if they look for it.

The fourth night.

Ai Xi felt guilty, "I turned my tears into pearls and gave them to Aman and the others. They gave us clothes to wear..."

It's okay, it's okay... It's okay, the people in Beast Village seem to be good people.

Chapter 118

Dahn took three orcs into the woods to cut firewood. Aman led the sub-orcs to continue boiling salt, and the two orcs stayed here to guard safety. Of course, there were still eagles shining in the sky.

The eagle flies around looking for prey.

Their meat was gone.

"Why didn't the three of them come today?" asked the sub-orc Acao.

"Yes, I usually come here early in the morning, but I didn't come today. Were they captured by the armored soldiers?"

"But I heard that Lanhai City is far away from them."

Even Aman was a little worried and looked at the city in the distance. The sea, but they still had to boil salt, and there was no way to go into the sea to find the three of them.

A few people first exposed the seawater to the sun for a day, and then boiled the remaining seawater at night. This was very fast and saved firewood. And there are many large bamboos here. You only need to split the bamboos and open the bamboo joints to use for drying salt.

Although the bamboo tubes hold less seawater and are not as good as the large tree tubes used by the tribes in the past, the bamboo tubes are light and easy to pack out. They packed up rows of bamboo tubes for drying salt in the morning.

At night, the bamboo tubes originally filled with seawater were much less. The two of them held one end at a time, and instead of spilling the seawater into the stone pot, they would boil salt and roast some food around the fire.

"Hey, the three of them were very curious when they saw us chopping bamboo, and secretly watched us in the sea."

"They were shocked to know that we were salting and boiling like this, and they said we were really smart."

"Haha, the three of them are quite fun. "

Everyone carried buckets to fetch seawater. First, they briefly filtered it to remove floating debris in the seawater, and then poured it carefully into split bamboo tubes. Just when working, everyone looks at the sea a few more times from time to time.

They had been staying here for less than half a month. Ashe and the other three came here to play every day before, but today the sun was almost overhead and the three of them hadn't appeared yet. The sub-orcs were very worried and there was nothing they could do.

It's just that the chat content is all about three people.

Until the eagle flying in the sky screamed, passed over the sea, and landed on the beach, making a series of calls. Aman ran over first, "What's wrong?"

The orcs who stayed behind also ran to the seaside and looked into the distance.

"Is there...prey?"

Diao Ming called softly. The people standing at the beach soon heard a long song. The song made them a little confused, but only a little. The orcs protected the sub-orcs and moved back.

"It's Ai Xi and the three of them. They should be in no danger." Aman said.

"The three of them are singing again. Is someone chasing them? That armored soldier!"

"No, no, the eagle calls it a prey."

After everyone waited for a while, the singing became louder and louder, and several people listened to it. After playing with the cloth, Diao Ming and the orcs had already thrown themselves into the sea. Only then did the orcs see Ashe, Lanbei and Pearl in a circle, as if they were chasing something in the middle.

Soon they knew what it was.

Very big fish, those fish are very fat, their upper body is blue and the bottom is white, so it is difficult to detect when half of their body is exposed in the sea.

"Why did you catch so many fish?" Aman ran forward.

Ai Xi's fish tail was still soaked in the sea, and he said with a raised face: "Didn't you say that all the meat is gone? This kind of fish is edible. It's called big blue fish. I give it to you."

"I swam for a long time before I met it. "

You should be able to eat for many days,"

the three of them said. Diao Ming and the orcs had already thrown the fish onto the shore. Each of those fish was big and fat, and looked as big as a small toothed pig. Aman and others handed the clothes to Ai Xi and the others and expressed their sincere thanks.

"Thank you."

Lan Bei: "Hey, you're welcome."

"This is delicious." Pearl.

The three of them came ashore. Their fish tails turned into human legs. They wore shorts and suspenders. They braided their red hair into a braid and tied it into a knot with grass - they thought it looked good when the sub-orcs dressed up like this.

This day was a good harvest day. The orcs who went out to chop wood also found their prey, another lost sharp-beaked goose. The three mermaids helped to deal with the prey. They sincerely sighed: "You orcs have fire and can barbecue. It's really amazing." It's delicious."

Aman knew that mermaids usually eat small fish and don't need to grill them.

"Then you don't drink hot water?"

"We didn't drink it a long time ago. In the past, in the field, we only had to pick fruits and catch small fish to eat all year round. Later, I heard from the elders of the clan that the elders of the elders saw Yuren, Yuren changed some skins for us. They are furry and warm." Ai Xi told the previous stories. She had never seen Yuren, so she only heard them.

"Later we had a fire, and we also boiled some hot water, but we are not used to drinking hot food -"

"But I didn't expect the barbecue to be so delicious!" Pearl answered.

The three little girls are very lively and talk a lot. Aman guessed that no one must have talked to them in the past. He had been holding it in for a long time. He also liked chatting with the mermaids and knew a lot of things outside.

Diao Ming transformed into a human form and put on a skirt, and said: "I have never seen you tearful sharks before. We always fly to the white sand sea to change salt." She was afraid that the little girls had never been there, so she specifically described it, " The sand over there is white, and there is a big piece of it, and there are some white trees.

"We know where you are talking about," Ashe said.

Lan Bei interfaced: "That's where several of us sea tribesmen go to exchange things together, but our territory is farther away. In the past, the elders of the tribe swam there with salt, and we don't live there."

"You travel there." Past? Then your salt won't melt?" Aman wondered.

Lan Bei: ...then looked at Ai Xizhu, what should I do? She really wanted to spill the beans again.

When Aman saw the word 'panic' written all over the little girl's face, he couldn't help but laugh, and planned to change the subject, "How did you make salt in the past? The salt you replaced at that time was dusty and had some sand and gravel."

"Just spread the silver grass on it. "On the shore, we don't need to worry about it anymore. The sea water flows over, and we pack it directly when the trading season comes. The salt is left on the silver grass. The elders said that we can just dry it in the sun when the feather people arrive," Pearl said.

Aman: ...He seems to know why the salt won't melt.

Is that Silver White Grass waterproof?

It's quite useful.

But the mermaid girl seemed to want to 'hide' this, so everyone started talking about barbecue. The three sisters had a wonderful meal and helped the Ya-orcs to fill the sea water with them. The Ya-orcs were so smart that they made buckets and bamboos for drying the sea water. Their salt was very clean.

When they arrived at the sea at night, Pearl Blue Shell was still sighing: "Hey, we didn't say anything today.", "Yes, we didn't say Silver White Grass-"

The two sisters stopped and looked at Ai Xi. Did you say that?

Ai Xi held her cheek with one hand and nodded skillfully.

"Aman must have guessed it."

"Then why didn't he ask clearly?"

"Because he knew that we didn't want to say it, but we also said it."

"He didn't ask, he's such a good person."

"Actually, he didn't ask, so it shouldn't matter, right?"

Ai Xi nodded, just counting the secrets that were revealed, and then she was surprised to find that the secrets of their Tearful Mermaids seemed to be nothing. , they all told it, but they did not tell Aman and the others that their tears turned into pearls and could be exchanged with the Black Armor City, so the armor soldiers arrested them.

In fact, it wasn't like this before. They, the Leimers, didn't have to hide. They used tears to exchange things with other tribesmen, and everyone just came according to their mood. Until her tribe went out and couldn't come back, and there were fewer and fewer people...

One day I heard The Blue Shark people said: The armored soldiers of Blue Ocean City captured them, not only the Tear Shark people but also the Blue Shark people. They can weave yarn, and the Lord of the Blue Sea City liked it very much. He arrested many of their tribesmen and imprisoned them to weave yarn. .

The Tearman should also be locked up.

...

This doesn't seem to be a secret. Ash thought. Aman and the others helped them scold the soldiers in Lanhai City as hateful and bad, but Aman and the others were good people.

Another half month passed.

Aman's group has made six large baskets of salt. They first laid a layer of straw in the rattan baskets and wrapped them tightly with leather. These six large baskets of salt can be eaten until next year. When they were leaving, they roasted all the prey and gave the dried meat to the three mermaid sisters.

"We are the Hundred Beast Village." Aman pointed in the direction. "Go north and see a very straight stone mountain. We are almost there. We will be able to see our village in another three days."

"But you guys It's a long way to go."

Ai Xi couldn't bear to leave A Man and the others. "Are you still coming?"

"Come on, we'll have to wait until next year. We'll come back to dry the salt at this time next year," A Man said with a smile.

Ai Xi thought it would take a long time next year, but they didn't dare to go to Beast Village - it was so far away and there was no sea, and they were scared just thinking about it. Aman also saw that the three of them were timid, so he didn't invite them because it wasn't the right time.

He didn't understand before, why Zhuo Yan said that sometimes it's not the right time, but now he understands.

"We're leaving. You can stay in the house. I've left you a piece of leather, so I can only squeeze out this one. There's still some firewood and flint in the kitchen." Ah Cao said carefully.

Several people are reluctant to part, but they still have to separate.

"See you next time."

"See you next year."

Everyone waved goodbye. Aman and several others got on the backs of the orcs and quickly disappeared into the seaside forest. Ai Xi and the other two stayed there for a long time and watched. The wooden house was very clean. There was still water in the stone pot in the stove house, so they did not have to run to the river to fetch water. There was also some dried meat and clothes given to them.

"I wonder what the Hundred Beasts Village looks like?"

"Actually, I heard them say that there is a big river over there."

Lan Bei and Pearl said and looked at Ai Xi, who also looked hesitant, "I kind of want to go." , and a little scared."

"Actually, we are too, I want to go but I'm scared."

Since I'm hesitant, it's safest to stay. The three of them nodded and made this decision, "And Oman and the others will come next year.", "Let's wait here." Two

days later, it rained.

The three of them were all a little worried, "Aman and the others have worked hard for a long time to make the salt. It should be fine if it is wrapped tightly.", "How about we pick some silver grass? We will give it to them next year.", "But The silver grass is in the deep sea near the domain. "

Go back and take a look." About ten days after the Oman salt team set out, a team of Little Bears who went out to search for minerals came back. They were going to the west. Zhuo Yan was stunned for a moment, so fast? But that's how fast. About the fourth day of the expedition to the west, the Bearman treasure hunt team started to rain. The rain was not heavy. The group stayed under the trees and waited for the rain to stop. The orcs looked at the weather and said, "In the past, it only rained during the rainy season. " The winter was colder in the past, and I still like the weather now." The other orc was silent for a while, "It would have been fine before if the tribe was here." "Yes." The two were chatting here briefly. The bear man was timid and sat under a tree. He just listened to the conversation and felt closer to the orcs. He, he thought the same way. It would be great if there was no disaster. The tribesmen were still there. It would be okay not to eat meat. They could Eat corn. Then after thinking for a while, the rain stopped and we set off again. Unexpectedly, after running a few steps, the bear man suddenly stopped and led everyone to another direction. After the rain washed away, some green stones were exposed on the jungle hillside. The bear pointed at the stone and said, "Yes, that's it." "Is this it? It's green." The orc didn't mean to question, he was just curious. He squatted down and pulled it down, and it was a green stone. "It shouldn't be black. "?" He remembered it was from black ore. He also asked his companion, "Is this black or green? My eyes are broken." "Is it green?" The companion was not sure after being asked. The bear man just lay there, sniffed, and said: "It's it." Seeing the two orcs looking at him, he became even more nervous. He clenched his fingers and stumbled and said: "A, the soldier is looking for the black one. The green one is also useful." , No, but there used to be less green..." So that's it. The orcs looked at each other and didn't expect to be able to return to the village so soon! "Let's carry some and take them back to the village chief to see." "Okay." "The stone is green and looks similar to the color of the peacocks' hair. I said it's impossible to mistake it." "It looks pretty good." ...The orc stood in front of the village chief and told him how he found him, how he had a conversation with him, and how he decided to bring him back. Zhuo Yan: Actually, it doesn't need to be so detailed. The bear man chewed bamboo shoots and said it all. But the scene of the bear eating bamboo shoots should be quite cute. Because they were out hunting for treasure, the bears had to keep up with the orcs, so the treasure hunting team was all in their original form, flying in the sky and running on the ground, so the bears were holding bamboo shoots and chewing them - it would be great if there were pandas. Zhuo Yan thought. Ahem, let's talk about serious things. When Zhuo Yan heard the approximate location, he should have bypassed the wide river to the west - bypassed the narrow one, otherwise if there was a bridge or boat, it would be quite close to their village. Regardless of the boat and the bridge, Zhuo Yan set his sights on those stones. The colors of the stones were peacock blue and green... The Bear Man was very nervous. This was their first job when they joined the Hundred Beast Village. He was afraid of the village chief. If he doesn't recognize it, he won't admit it. It's this stone. But these stones here are all on the surface, so there is no need to dig underneath. In the past, the bear tribe used to dig underneath. It was very tiring and hard, and sometimes the mountain would collapse. "Yes, yes. This is a copper mine." After Zhuo Yan finished speaking, he saw the nervous bear man and patted his shoulder with a smile, "Well done, thank you for your hard work. You guys go to rest first and go back to take a shower and eat. I'll tell you how to make it. " Tong, Zhuo Yan's mind is full of copper pots for cooking mutton. Copper pots, spoons, and kitchen utensils can be used. In ancient times, incense burners were also made of copper, as were copper mirrors and copper knives. However, copper is prone to oxidation, which is not a big deal. Just take care of it and clean it up. Zhuo Yan is gearing up, and the first step of the treasure hunting team is going smoothly!

People who heard it back said that all the stones on the entire hill are green stones, so there are quite a lot of them. His guess was correct. Some of the ores that had been buried underground were now on the surface. With the bear man's nose, it was very easy to find this.

Smelting copper is almost the same as smelting pig iron, and copper is even simpler.

The orcs brought back a lot, and Zhuo Yan asked the master to carry the stones to the kiln. In the past, the kiln in the tribe - he called it that, and everyone called it that, but it was actually a small open-air workshop, and now the kiln The factory really has a "factory" smell.

Because the weather now is different from before. In the past, it only rained during the rainy season, so just avoid working during the rainy season. Now, it rains from time to time throughout the year. In order to ensure that the work goes smoothly and does not delay time, the kiln factory built a large factory building.

It is a rectangular parallelepiped, with a high ceiling and no doors or windows on one side, only supported by pillars.

After the spring of this year, Qiao came to him and discussed building a shed with a roof. Qiao said: "I didn't do it last year because I thought the winter would be very cold and the snow would collapse the house. Also, the temperature when entering and exiting the kiln would be very hot..."

After the snow season, the little snow made Qiao feel itchy, and she wanted to make use of her winter time. Zhuo Yan discussed it together and drew the shape of a large factory building. Now that they are building a house, their village is already familiar with the roads.

The factory building is easier to build, but you need to choose some big trees to make the beams and pillars.

Zhuo Yan brought the copper ore over. The ground in front of a large factory building was compacted, and the bricks baked in the sun were placed neatly. Cold water was needed to dry the bricks. After drying and watering, the bricks would become stronger - their bricks were still Mixed with some transparent stone powder, the hardness is much stronger than modern red bricks. The fired bricks are large and thick, almost like stone bricks.

"I have already set up the furnace for burning black gravel." Qiao started to make preliminary preparations when he heard that Zhuo Yan wanted the bear people to find the black stone mine.

Over the years, several people have worked together. Zhuo Yan came up with the idea, and a few friends helped implement it. In the past, they would ask Zhuo Yan from time to time because they were not sure if they were doing it right. Now, Qiao and the others are responsible for it alone. .

It's better than Oman's method of adding boiled salt to sun-dried salt.

The same goes for Qiao. She is in charge of everything here, not to mention the manpower dispatch. There are also the missing pottery pots and bowls used by the villagers every day. Qiao also took note of them, cooked a batch, and sent them to the big factory, where they were sent by the village chief. Send it to the meeting.

It was Qiao who reminded Zhuo Yan.

"How do you burn this? Is it the same as black gravel?" Joe asked.

Zhuo Yan: "Green ore is copper, with a lower melting point than black gravel...Of course, iron is harder and suitable for making weapons. Let's try copper first and burn some copper pots, copper kettles, and bronze mirrors."

The previous one Qiao understood. When she got to the back, she knew about the copper pots and kettles. "What is a bronze mirror?"

"A mirror is the same as looking at the surface of a lake. You can hold it in your hand to check your hairstyle and other things every day -" Zhuo Yan felt that Qiao looked at him. His eyes looked like he was looking at a straw bag, which was not the case. He coughed and said, "There are a lot of green ores and they are very close, so if you burn a batch of useful ones, you can burn some bronze mirrors in the future."

Qiao laughed, "I I know. I thought it was a bit wasteful at first, but then I thought that in our tribe, the market was not very good at first. Everyone only exchanged salt and were busy drying and cooking salt. Later, the market was very beautiful, and Xiao Xian and I even set up a stall. Selling all kinds of small things."

When he said this, Joe had a happy smile on his face.

"I just thought about the bronze mirror. Now it sounds like a waste to me, but one day comes, I will feel very happy. Everyone in the village will have copper pots and kettles to use, so they can look in the mirror with beauty."

Zhuo Yan listened . I felt a little sour in my heart, so I promised: "I will." There will come a day when the whole village of Beast Village will not have to worry about food and prey, will not be afraid of starvation, and will not be afraid of foreign enemies. They will have their own strength to protect the whole village, and they will have the ability to dress up. , think of some entertainment activities.

Burnt copper.

The green stones were ground into powder. This was done by orcs. Ada led the orcs to grind the green stones into powder. Then there was a small stove - the small stove was connected to a bellows, and the first step was primary heating to produce a chemical reaction.

Throw the green stone powder directly onto the red-hot coal, cover the furnace lid, and exhaust the air box. After this step, the furnace can be turned on not long after the combustion. At this time, the copper has been generated, and the inside of the furnace is red and red, and the copper sinks relatively easily. At the bottom of the stove, after it cools down, take the stove away. At the bottom is a large piece of copper mixed with impurities. At this time, you only need to take a hammer and hammer this piece open to roughly separate the copper pieces and impurities.

Secondary combustion is also required, which can remove impurities.

Zhuo Yan picked up a piece of copper and couldn't help but exclaimed in surprise: "If you burn it casually, the copper that comes out will be very pure."

Qiao couldn't help but smile, it looked like it was burned well.

"You need a crucible for the second firing."

"I'm ready. Don't worry. I also have the clamp you mentioned. I can easily make it by burning transparent stone."

Zhuo Yan has seen it before, "When we find the black ore in the future, we can Change the tools again. "It's just enough for now.

The tools are a bit rough and simple, but the copper ore here is too good to hold up.

The separated copper burned in the previous step is thrown into the crucible, and placed in a red-hot furnace for secondary combustion. The high temperature will turn the copper into copper water, and at the same time remove some impurities. After the burning is completed, take out the crucible with a clamp and put The liquid copper is poured into the ashes and cooled, and copper is obtained.

It's reddish copper.

You can hammer and prune again, or do the mold copper liquid pouring method.

The first piece of bronzeware from the Beast Village came out, an irregular bronze medal with the marks of constant hammering on it. At first glance, it looked quite 'artistic'.

"What are you doing with this? Otherwise, if it melts, we can make a bowl mold."

"It's all typed out. By the way, let's engrave it in Braille and use it as a brand for your factory." Zhuo Yan said.

Qiao Yi was very happy and said yes. She knew what Zhuo Yan meant by "zi", because Zhuo Yan had used this before, writing and drawing on the ground, but they couldn't understand it. Zhuo Yan said it was a "zi", and there were no words in the tribe. People can learn it, but even Asu can't.

There are so many words and it's so difficult.

This may be from Tianshen Church Zhuo Yan. So no one forced themselves to learn it. They really couldn't learn it. Only Zhuo Yan knew how to write it.

Zhuo Yan first wrote the word "Kiln Factory" upside down on the back of the bronze medal. It was a bit crooked. There was no way he could write on the ground from time to time, but he didn't have paper and pen like in modern times. A lot of unfamiliarity.

Then use a chisel on the back and tap it little by little with a hammer. Finally, the bronze medal will look like a brand with the word "Kiln Factory" protruding out.

A hole was made and the sign was hung on the wall inside the factory.

Later, there was a "green stone transport team" in the village, and the bear people were relieved. At night, they told other bear people: "The village chief didn't force me to move the stones. We all worked together and let me rest for two days." I'll go again."

"They're so nice."

Xiong Guo and Xiong Ling wanted to go out, so they couldn't sleep. The two little bears slept on the same bed, secretly listening to the bears.

"This is our village, and we are villagers too," Xiong Ping said.

The bear man was stunned for a moment, and then thought, "Yes, we are also villagers of the Hundred Beasts Village."

Xiong Guo and Xiong Ling slowly fell asleep while listening to the conversation. Although they still missed their elder brother and wanted him to come back soon, But not so worried...this is their home, and they will be herding calves tomorrow.

Buhei said that he would bring them peanuts to eat, and would also ask his sister to take them to pick wild fruits to eat. As long as they turned into their original form and let Buhei touch their ears and tail, it would be fine.

Xiong Guo Xiong Ling slept soundly.

It's good even if it's not dark.

Half a month later, the Bearman treasure hunting team returned from the north and brought back some stones. This stone was a bit dark in color and looked like black ore at first glance. The Bearman found it first and waited for the orcs to move it out. Finally, the bear man looked at the stone with a bit of confusion in his eyes.

"What's wrong? Isn't it?"

The bear man nodded and then shook his head, "It seems...it seems to be different from the black stone in Black Armor City. This one is shiny."

"Then it may be stained with dirt."

"I'll wipe it. "

The orcs wiped it on the body, but it was useless. The black stone was still shiny. They even washed it, but it didn't wash off. The other stones were like this. They were not very black. The black and gray were mixed with silver highlights, and they looked sparkling. .

"Then what should I do?"

"Is it this?"

The orc looked at the bear-man undecidedly, and the bear-man was hesitant. It didn't look like it, but he didn't dare to say, for fear that if it wasn't the one, he would be beaten. When the orc saw the bear man's scared look, he immediately said: "Forget it, take it back to the village chief for a look. If not, we will come out to look for it."

"Yes."

"Don't be afraid, the village chief won't fight for this. We, are we lazy? We are looking for him very seriously."

"Yes, the village chief is very smart, he is not a bad guy like the black armored soldier."

The bear man breathed a sigh of relief, and a smile appeared on his face, because when the orc feather man spoke, It said 'we', not that he had found the wrong one.

Zhuo Yan didn't recognize the stone he brought back -

"You'll know after you burn it."

Then silver came out. Zhuo Yan: ...He finally knows what those things that can't be washed away are.

What can silver do? Silver bowl, silver chopsticks, silver hairpin. It's a bit luxurious. But I heard from the treasure hunting team that there are a lot of such ores over there, piled up like a hill, covered with bush dust, and dusty. If it weren't for the bear people, they would definitely not be able to find it.

Let's not move for now, mainly smelting copper.

A month and a half later, the black ore was finally found and the team returned.

That was the team that Xiong Tian went to. To the east, the orcs leading the team were two tigers, and a large amount of black ore was found there.

The original Khajiit tribe. In fact, the Khajiit themselves didn't know if it was their previous tribe. It was just a general direction. It was a flat plain with no mountains, only some jagged rocks and a chasm cliff.

Xiong Tian identified the black stone on the rugged stone cliff.

Chapter 119

The small team to the south did not find black ore, but found white stones. When they were hesitant, they happened to bump into Aman and his group who were returning from drying salt. Aman saw it and said directly: "We don't recognize it, take some back to the village." You'll know after a long look."

So the group packed up and walked back.

When they arrived at the village, Xiong Tian's team that went to the east also came back with black ore.

Zhuo Yan looked at the black stone in front of him. He heard from the orcs who were out looking for the place that it was a bit far away. He dug around to find the time - this one was slower, stop and go. If he went straight there, he would be back and forth. It takes about forty to fifty days.

Carrying the ore back to burn is obviously an inefficient thing. It is better to process it directly in the original stone field and come back with the iron tools - it takes up less space than the original stone.

Then he saw the 'White Stone' again.

"Village Chief, is this useful? Xiong Qi stopped here after looking for a long time. This seems to be the same as the black stone but different. He has never seen it before, but the smell is very special." Although he did not smell it, a piece of What does the stone smell like?

But the bear man said it must have a taste.

The White Stone team was a little uneasy.

Zhuo Yan took a look and said, isn't this limestone? They have carbon now. After the limestone is burned, it becomes lime. Lime can be mixed with yellow mud in a certain proportion and burned into cement. Lime alone can also be mixed with water to paint the wall, and the wall will become white. .

!

This land is really rich in resources, but unfortunately, they have few people now. Infrastructure construction such as road construction, sewer system, sewerage and other facilities around the entire village must be slowed down for a while.

The most important thing to solve is housing, food and clothing. The second is to keep weapons close to you.

Otherwise, it would be bad if other orc civilizations find out that they have perfected their cultivation and want to attack them, occupying land and grabbing resources, and they have no ability to fight back. In addition, in the past two years, the whole village has been very busy and needs to take a breather.

When Zhuo Yan saw the rough stones he brought back, he suppressed his excitement and told himself not to be in a hurry, to take his time, as he would not become fat after one bite, so he picked the important ones first.

"White stones are useful. Tell me the location and I will record it for later." Zhuo Yan took a homemade black charcoal pen and his 'notebook', an old and hairless piece of leather, and began to On the ground, based on Xiong Qi and the oral descriptions of the orcs, I drew a rough outline for revision, and finally copied it onto the leather after confirming it was correct.

Xiong Qi and the others breathed a sigh of relief when they found out that Bai Shitou was useful, with smiles on their faces.

"That's enough, you can go back and rest."

This year, the whole village will live in houses.

After Xiong Qi and his party left, Zhuo Yan turned his attention to Xiong Tian and his party, who had been waiting for a long time. He recorded the location as usual, and then said, "The location of the black ore is very important."

The orc looked confused, listening. I don't understand what the village chief means.

"I won't tell anyone else." Xiong Tian promised loudly.

The orc suddenly realized it, and he still wanted to tell others? No, isn't this what they found? Who to tell - but they soon remembered that this continent was no longer just the villagers of the Beast Village, but also the bad guys Black Armor City and some kind of Blue Sea City.

It turns out that we have to guard against those people.

That really cannot be said.

"You are now villagers of the Hundred Beast Village. Of course I believe you." Zhuo Yan smiled and comforted Xiong Tian while looking at the orcs present, "We were the only ones here before. Whatever we found, whether useful or not, belonged to our village. , It's different now, the black ore is kept secret."

The orcs nodded, "Absolutely!"

"If I see the black armored soldiers, I would like to try with them to see who is better."

Zhuo Yan looked at everyone's eagerness to try. He looked like he was about to fight, and said: "I don't know when we will encounter them, but - let's prepare first." He had a premonition that sooner or later, he would have a fight with the people of Black Armor City.

When the treasure hunting team reported and left, Aman had not left yet, but the salt basket was already used to being placed in the large factory first, and everyone else also went back.

"What did you encounter when you went out this time?" Zhuo Yan said with a smile.

Aman almost fell asleep after sitting and waiting for a long time. He was obviously quite tired, but as soon as Zhuo Yan asked him, he became energetic and had a lot to say, "How do you know!"

"You are so tired that your eyelids are drooping and you can't look back. " "Sleep, you must have something to tell me here, and it's not about making salt." The salt has been prepared and brought back, and it must have nothing to do with this.

"Hahaha, I'm not sleepy now, let me tell you."

Zhuo Yan listened, but Aman opened his mouth and said 'mermaid', and he looked surprised. When Aman saw his surprise, he proudly said that his desire was even stronger, Balabala said: "... ...these three little girls were quite funny. They were chattering all over the place. I was too embarrassed to ask Baiyincao about it later. Although I was quite curious, I decided not to talk about it, which would save the three of them from being confused again when they left. He looked annoyed. "So innocent." Zhuo Yan

looked at A Man, "You are a mature person now. You were also innocent in the tribe."

A Man: "Don't tell me, you were not innocent before."

:...

Well, he is, there is no way to refute this.

"But it seems that Blue Ocean City is more civilized than Black Armor City." Zhuo Yan speculated based on what Aman said.

Aman: Huh? What?

Zhuo Yan and A Man sat down again. They had futon cushions. At present, the tables and stools were not free to make too much furniture. These were added slowly later, and now the straw mats are very comfortable.

"The tears shed by the Lacrimons will turn into pearls. According to what you said, Ai Xi and the others are very afraid of the patrol armor soldiers of Blue Sea City. Could it be that the people of Blue Sea City will capture the Lacrimons, just like the Black Armored City captures the Little Bears."

Aman thinks about his face, yes.

"The Ursine can search for black ore and mine it, and the black ore can be made into weapons. The tears of the Tearman can be turned into pearls, which can be used as currency in circulation. There are also Bluemers who weave yarn and have clothes to wear." Zhuo Yan said, "I suspect that the system of Black Armor City is all learned from Blue Sea City."

Aman's face followed Zhuo Yan's words, showing deep thought, like the word 'currency'. In the past, when the leopard men opened the market, Zhuo Yan I told them that at that time, everyone didn't like money, and they still liked to exchange their own things according to their preferences, so he understood.

At this time, Aman took out the pearls given to him by Ai Xi and the others from his arms. A soft and shining light emitted from his palm, including a pink one, a white one and a black one.

"It's so beautiful." Zhuo Yan said.

Aman stretched out his hand and let Zhuo Yan choose. Zhuo Yan shook his head, "They treat you as a friend. I don't need to give it to you. I just praise you for your good looks."

"Then you are my friend too." Aman said, and wanted to give it to Zhuo Yan. Zhuo Yan waved it off and didn't force it. , "Then I'll send Qiao and Shitou as gifts."

He, Zhuo Yan, and Xiao Xian were really average about these things, and Qiao and Shitou were cute and beautiful.

Zhuo Yan nodded.

The conversation between the two returned to Blue Ocean City.

Aman looked at the pearls in his hand and said: "Although they are very beautiful, if a few pearls have to exchange for a lot of my dried meat, pottery, wooden barrels, and straw mats, then I will definitely not be happy." So at the market at that time, He didn't understand what Zhuo Yan said about currency.

"If pearls can be exchanged for the same goods anywhere, such as large pearls, you can exchange them for ten bags of corn or ten baskets of fish in Blue Sea City or Black Armor City. You can carry a pearl easily and exchange it for food and drink wherever you go. Or something of the same value."

"Then if I go on a long trip and I'm short of food, I can hunt and dig up grass roots to bring food." Aman still thinks it's not cost-effective, "If I don't like the expensive ones you mentioned, then I won't. Use it."

Zhuo Yan smiled and nodded. Currency is not something they should consider at this stage - at least when the collective tribal life is transitioning to individual life, the material foundation is sufficient, and the general currency cannot be used by them alone in the Beast Village.

What kind of currency is needed within the village? Everyone uses the same things and is self-sufficient. If there are many private things, if there is any shortage, it is most convenient to just exchange things for things as Aman said.

"So I guess Blue Sea City uses pearls as its currency and has connections with Black Armor City. Black Armor City learns from Lan Sea City." Zhuo Yan brought the topic back.

Aman: "You mean, Blue Sea City is more powerful?"

"Then how do you compare?" Zhuo Yan gave Aman an example, "If we compare the force value, the orc soldiers of Black Armor City should be more powerful."

After all, orcs also have weapons . , this is nature plus nurture.

"In the case of Blue Sea City, it's a humanistic system, right?" Zhuo Yan speculated, but he felt that it was similar to the temptation of the mermaid's song. For the orcs, it only slowed down the response for a while. When the orcs became vigilant, it was of little use. .

On the contrary, the singing voices of the three Ashes are more useful to marine life.

However, there should be no major conflicts between a continental civilization and a maritime civilization in the past. They were just doing transactions. Blue Sea City used the 'currency' to take advantage of it.

Aman actually didn't think much about these things, because Zhuo Yan managed all of this. Zhuo Yan saw it and asked them to do whatever they wanted to do. Guard against Black Armor City and Blue Sea City. They could just do it. What he cared about was: "Zhuo Yan , do you think Ai Xi and the others can come to our village and live with us?"

"Are the three of them willing?"

Aman: ...

Zhuo Yan laughed, "It's not like our village doesn't accept other tribesmen, like Little Bear. People have settled in Baishou Village now. As long as friendly and peaceful tribesmen want to come, they can come. "

Their village is short of people now.

Moreover, the bigger their village grows, the greater the risk of fighting against external forces. In this era, it is still a safer world to work together as a group.

"I think they will definitely be willing next year." Aman said with some confidence, "We also have a wide river. Although it is a bit far from our village, they can live there. In fact, they can also live by the lake."

The mermaid tribe is not Living in the sea all year round, the area that Ai Xi and the three chatted about are actually some scattered small islands in the sea, where mermaids live in the water and on land.

Aman left. He was going to give pearls to Qiao and Shitou, while talking about the mermaid he saw and made friends with. He only has three pearls, so give them to Xiao Xian next time.

Summer is over and the weather is getting cooler.

Zhuo Yan had distributed salt to the village and had been planning to go to the black ore to smelt iron ore to make some iron tools after returning from the bear treasure hunt. This time he wanted to lead the team, so Zhuo Yan also considered the candidate carefully.

Orcs, sub-orcs, and a few skilled workers from Joe.

Xiao Xian and Xiao Wo also go.

Zhuo Yan was thinking about whether to take the child there. He asked A Yin, and A Yin said no without even thinking about it. Zhuo Yan:?

"Brother, it's very hard over there." Ah Yin added.

Zhuo Yan nodded, "That's true." Taking advantage of the long autumn, it's not too cold to sleep in the wild. Come back before winter. It's okay for the adults to suffer a little. It's safer and happier for the three children to stay here.

"Our home is surrounded by Qiao, Xiaoxian and Aman's house. Xiaoxian and Xiaowo are coming with us, and there are Qiao and Aman. Not far away is Shitou's house." Ah Yin detailed the location of the house, "If anything happens, they He will definitely help. Kangkang is old enough to look after his younger siblings. "

Indeed, I'm afraid that the three of them won't want to. From birth to now, I have been carrying them with me everywhere," Zhuo Yan thought A Yin said. Quite right.

Ah Yin said: "Let me tell you."

"..." It can be seen that Ah Yin really wants the cub to stay. But in fact, he thought so too, so the three of them followed him. He and Ah Yin were busy smelting iron ore from scratch, which must have been tiring and dirty.

"Okay, I'll leave it to you."

Ah Yin was very happy and went to the sheep farm that day. First he found Zhuo Le, and the father and daughter talked for a while. Zhuo Le heard it first and refused to agree.

"I want to go, my father is not afraid of hardship." Zhuo Le didn't even think about it.

Ah Yin nodded, "I know you are not afraid of hardship, but didn't you say that the horned deer is pregnant recently and will have a baby soon? If you leave, who will care about these horned deer, lambs and calves?"

Zhuo Le frowned, She thought about the names of several friends, but she was a little worried because there were several friends who drooled over the lambs every day.

"Father, how long will you be gone? When will you come back?"

"I don't know, your father said he will definitely come back before winter."

Zhuo Le said with a slumped face, "It's been so long."

"The family has to pay everything. Here you go, sometimes your eldest brother is inconvenient to move around, so he has to rely on you to take care of it," A Yin said.

Zhuo Le suddenly felt a sense of responsibility. Indeed, she had to carry this family.

"If you are scared, you can also invite Wind Chime Tiger Blizzard to play at home."

Zhuo Le's eyes lit up a little. Once her father and grandpa left, she would be in charge of the house. She could also take her friends home to play. Even stay overnight!

"Think about it." Ah Yin did not rush her daughter, but thoughtfully left some time to think. Then she found Zhuo Buhei, and said she was going east. At the same time, she said, "I won't take you with me this time."

Zhuo Buhei said: " Ah? Don't you want to take anyone with you?"

"Yes, you and your second sister and brother are staying."

Zhuo Buhei was not happy at first, but he hesitated when he heard his father say that they were all staying in the village. That's okay - no, my second sister and eldest brother are all staying?"

Ah Yin touched his youngest son's head, "Xiong Tian is going, he may be worried about his younger brothers and sisters. You have a good relationship with them, can you look after them?"

"Of course it's okay!" Zhuo Buhei assured, this is a small thing, he likes the bear man.

So the matter was settled in a haphazard manner.

As for Kangkang - it's very simple to say it, because after Zhuo Kang heard what his father said, he thought for a moment and said: "Lele and Buhei, father, you have already said it, you must say that the cotton is ripe. It's time to pick cotton. I'm leaving. It's very tiring to do this work alone."

Ah Yin: ...

That's what he thought.

"I'm not Zhuo Buhei. There are so many people in the Yuren clan who are busy." Although Zhuo Kang was in the form of a beast, his face showed a bit of calmness and he nodded, "I know father, I will take good care of Lele. And not black."

Ah Yin: Look, it's quite simple, even though Kangkang has guessed it.

"Okay."

Then the three cubs, Zhuo Le and Zhuo Buhei, heard that their eldest brother had also stayed, and there was no hesitation.

Two days later, the village chief led a team and set off with many orcs and sub-orcs to the east.

Zhuo Yan sat on A Yin's back. There were a hundred people in their team this time, seventy orcs. They carried coal and food on their backs and headed east with heavy loads. Xiong Tian and the orcs from before led the way, and they ran for about twenty After three days, we finally arrived at the Black Ore Cliff.

Then we looked for a water source to set up camp - it was about three thousand meters away from the black ore field, in a jungle with dense vegetation, and the water source was a very narrow stream.

On the first day of camp, the orcs caught dozens of snakes as thick as arms in the jungle. Zhuo Yan's scalp felt a little numb when he saw it, but the orcs were very happy. The tiger man could distinguish between what could be eaten and what could not be eaten. Xiong Tian also recognized a red-headed python.

"Is this poisonous?" Zhuo Yan asked.

Xiong Tian shook his head, "Its head is poisonous, and the rest can be eaten." Then there was fear on his face, "Village Chief, this red-headed python is very vindictive. It should be a cub so small. There must be many nearby."

Zhuo After Yan heard this, he looked at the orcs around him. Sure enough, everyone was excited, "There is such a good thing." "Do you know what to eat if you are bitten by a poisonous person?"

"Yes, it crawled..." Xiong Tian still looked for grass, and finally picked a grass that looked very ordinary, but if you look closely, you can see that it is different. The tips of the leaves are jagged.

Zhuo Yan: "Go find the red-headed python and bring this grass with you."

"I know the village chief."

The orcs were happy.

They all touched the cubs of the red-headed python. According to what Xiong Tian said about holding a grudge, it must be that this would eliminate potential dangers in the camp first. Sure enough, when they were looking for the red-headed python's nest, an orc was bitten. The red-headed python is not very poisonous. Big, the orc didn't feel anything just after being bitten. However, after a while, the wound became itchy and red and swollen, and then he realized he had been bitten.

Fortunately, the village chief brought grass with him. Chew it, eat half of it and put the other half on the wound. After a while, I felt nothing.

...

Zhuo Yan heard that several orcs had been bitten. After much thought, he decided to camp near the water source instead of moving to the entrance of the dense forest. It was halfway between the water source and the cliff. It might be inconvenient to run around to get water and clean it, but safety was important. .

The ground here is all gravel, with no weeds, and snakes crawling on the ground are clearly visible.

It took two days to set up camp and find suitable soil to make a stove. It was a bit messy at first, but it was quickly settled. The 'camp' was also a simple triangle shape built with thin trees, and some leaves and branches were used to form a 'top'. Sleep on the ground, stretched out on a leather or straw mat.

The orcs have already mined and transported, and Xiaoxian has brought the sub-orcs to make a stove. They brought the first batch of carbon to use first, but they will definitely have to burn charcoal later if it is not enough.

Everyone is exhausted every day. The land here is not suitable for planting, but there are many snakes and pythons in the dense forest, and there are swamp crocodiles in the deep parts. In short, the orcs are very happy and eat meat almost every meal.

Xiao Xian came to him later and said, "Brother Zhuo Yan, do you have any vegetarian food? I eat snakes every day and work during the day. I also have a date with Xiao Wo at night."

Zhuo Yan:...

"Don't you and A Yin Is it possible? I asked all the orcs, we guess there is something wrong with the snakes, they are hot after eating, and they don't feel tired every day. "

Most of the orcs who can come this time have partners.

Zhuo Yan coughed and didn't know what to say. Xiao Xian first had an expression on his face that said, "I suddenly realize I know it." How could I not feel it?"

"Then find some edible wild vegetables. If it rains in the forest, there will be mushrooms." Zhuo Yan changed the subject.

Xiao Xian was looking forward to rain, but it was not good to think about rain. Their stove was in the open air - which was really embarrassing.

Zhuo Yan thought for a moment and grabbed it with both hands, but there was no mountain suitable for shelter from the rain. The terrain was flat, with black ore cliffs falling straight down. It was dangerous and deep to go down, so he had to build on it.

After they built a shed, it did rain. It rained intermittently for several days. The rain was not heavy and they couldn't work when it rained. So everyone looked for food nearby, picked up the pythons and thick snakes, and wiped them with salt. Pickled, hung on the treetops to dry on a sunny day, it is actually very fragrant when grilled when eating.

We will also pick some mushrooms to eat.

In short: hard work.

Xiao Xian's initial 'trouble' will not be mentioned later. Maybe they have adapted to the snake and are used to eating it. It is more likely because they have been doing physical work for a long time. From the initial freshness and mental state, everyone later All a little tired.

Fortunately, there is not much rain. It rains about three or four days a month.

Also, they made iron. Congratulations.

When Xiong Tian saw the first sword, his eyes were round in shock.

Zhuo Yan had already learned from Xiong that the weapon used by the black-armored soldiers was similar to a spear, and it shouldn't be called that, because Xiong Tian's original words were: There is a sharp point on the wood made of black iron ore, which can be easily used. Stab the bearman to death.

Just like in the earliest times, there were orcs and sub-orcs in their tribe who used wood to inlay stone knives.

He guessed that the technology of smelting black ore into iron was still somewhat difficult and unstable for Black Armor City, so iron tools were relatively precious and could only be used a little bit - the spearhead inlaid on the front.

And they had black iron ore. During the first batch of smelting, Zhuo Yan discovered that this black stone ore looked like iron and was not the iron he was familiar with in modern times. There was no thermometer, but he had participated in burning pottery and copper. This black stone burning It failed three times. The burning temperature must be high. Coal must be used, and the furnace must be burned for a long time and with good sealing.

He originally wanted to 'open a factory' locally to save transportation costs, but that didn't work.

Because blackstone ore is heavy, coal is also heavy. It's equivalent to saying: If you have to run with a heavy load, you might as well go back to the village and burn it.

The good news is: Blackstone ore is high in iron.

Transporting ore back to the village is still more efficient than transporting coal. Zhuo Yan: ...

but failure is the mother of success.

When he burned it three times, he didn't even look at it the first time. When the iron came out the second and third time, Xiong Tian nodded excitedly and pointed to this one. He had seen the black armored soldier stab an orc to death with this.

"...Although it doesn't look like this, it's pointy here, but it's this."

Zhuo Yan saw that the iron weapon that failed to burn was a weapon used by Black Armor City. He knew the level of Black Armor City's weapons - there were impurities. , still a bit crispy and not very pure.

He said before that this black ore is like iron but not iron, because the burned one is heavier and will not rust. It happened to rain those few days. Although they were properly protected, the humidity in the air meant that this kind of pig iron, without coating protection, would actually rust easily.

But no.

Zhuo Yan based on the fighting habits of orcs. Orcs like close combat and are strong, so the weapons he thought of included swords and knives. The shape of the sword was based on the Yue King Goujian Sword that he saw in the museum before.

It is wider and has two blades, making it more suitable for orcs.

So when he failed several times and finally made the first sharp sword, Xiong Tian was stumbling and speechless, while the orcs showed proud smiles saying, "I believe that the village chief has no problem."

They are so excited.

When the iron was fired for the second time, Xiong Tian said that this was it, very good. When the village chief shook his head and said it was not enough.

None of the orcs in the Hundred Beast Village were impatient, and none of the sub-orcs felt tired or worked hard and wanted to return to the village as soon as possible. Instead, they told the village chief: Xiong Tian said that this is what the black-armored soldiers use, so why do we continue to burn it?

No one, no one.

The village chief said it was not enough, so everyone continued mining, carrying, lighting fires, and repairing new furnaces...

"It's done." Zhuo Yan held the epee in both hands with a satisfied smile on his face, and handed the sword to A Yin, "Let everyone Let's take a look and try the weight. Some orcs think it's lighter than heavier. Xiao Xian, please help me write it down and adjust it later..."

The orcs can't wait to get their hands on the sword and try it out.

When they heard the village chief's words, they didn't expect that they could adjust the weight of the weapons. They were touched for a moment but soon felt a sense of 'tacit understanding', as if they believed in the village chief's decision and tried over and over again, while the village chief adjusted the weight of the weapons for them. .

This is a mutual effort from both sides.

They trust the village chief, and the village chief deserves it.

Xiong Tian looked on and was a little stunned. The villagers orcs did not kneel down with fear and gratitude. Everyone who worked before did not find the village chief's request troublesome, and they did it sincerely.

Beast Village and Black Armor City are different, really different.

At this moment, Xiong Tian was also a little proud. He was a villager in Baishou Village.

"You must feel it is light when you first use it. From now on, you should carry it with you and use it for a long time. If it is strong, I will burn out the knife later. The knife is heavier and the sword is more dexterous and flexible. You should know when fighting that you are tall and powerful. Sometimes you can't catch small and agile prey."

"Some orcs in our village are more agile and suitable for using swords."

Zhuo Yan gave a suggestion.

Whether it is now or in the past, the orcs have always had the idea of ​​"who is taller and stronger and who is the most powerful". On the contrary, the weak will be looked down upon. This was true in the hunting environment in the past, but it is different now. After becoming the queen of the village, he It has always been said that everyone has their own strengths and specialties, so let orcs like Yu do the work they can.

But now that weapons are out, they can make up for some shortcomings.

Sure enough, someone raised their hand: "Chief, can this sword be lighter?"

"Yes." After Zhuo Yan finished speaking, he smiled, "It seems that we have to return to the village earlier than planned, when the coal is finished burning "Let's go back with the black ore on our backs."

He tried burning a lighter sword and a heavy knife.

As for the first sword, the orcs have automatically 'scheduled' it for use. Should they try slashing the red-headed python? excited!

Chapter 120

In the sea, a mermaid will never fail to recognize her home, even if her territory is submerged. Once in the vast sea, it was like a handful of fine sand sprinkled from the sky, dotted on the main sea.

The territory of the Tearman people is this "fine sand" island. There are only a few scattered islands. The area is very small. It is insignificant compared with the entire ocean. It is difficult for outsiders to find it because it is too inconspicuous.

There are some trees growing on the 'fine sand' granular island, not many, but they will produce the sweetest coconuts. Break open the shell, and there will be sweet juice and pulp that can be dug and eaten. In addition to trees, there will also be simple The vegetation has different flowers all year round, and there are some berries the size of a small finger.

Every rainy day, clear puddles accumulate on the natural rocks on the island, which can be used by mermaids to drink. There are also larger islands with creeks and rivers.

Mermaids weave leaves and shells into skirts.

And now...only the vast ocean is left.

Ai Xi and the other three arrived at the territory and surfaced, looking at the blue and empty sea. The three of them went from being confused, depressed, sad and numb at first, to now -

"Fortunately, the silver grass is in the sea. I'll go and take a look underneath." Lan Bei explain.

Pearl just sighed: "There are no more coconuts, otherwise we can bring some to Aman and others to try."

"You are so smart Pearl, coconuts can be stored for a long time, we can go to Baishahai to look for them." Lan Bei said.

The three of them are already thinking about what gifts to prepare when they meet the orcs next year.

Ai Xi said: "Even if the white sand sea is gone, we can still search everywhere. Anyway, we still have time."

"Let's go find the silver grass first, and we still need to dry this."

The three of them had nothing to do in the past to relieve their worries and confusion, and now With new goals comes new motivation. Ai Xi and the three of them plunged into the deep sea and found a lot of silver grass on the bottom of the sea.

"This is not broken yet."

"Sure enough, in this location, I helped my grandma pick silver grass before."

"There are also some corals, they are so beautiful. Bring some to Aman and the others."

The three of them finished picking silver grass and packed a big bag. Xiaobao brought a lot of coral shells and conches, and planned to find a beach island to dry their things and see if they could find coconuts. They could note the location and take them with them when they go to Yurenhai next year.

The plan was made, and the three of them were busy and full of energy every day.

Because they need to dry more silver grass, Aman and the others need to boil a lot of salt. I heard that there are many people in their village and they need a lot of salt, so they need to bring more so that they don't worry about getting wet when it rains.

While chatting while doing it, the three of them finally said why don't they also share some salt? There's nothing to do anyway.

"...This way Aman and the others can work less and have extra time to chat with us when they come again."

"Yes! We can eat dried meat together."

"We can also listen to them tell the story of the Beast Village."

" But their salt is so white, I forgot how to make the filter. "

"Shall we go to the cabin to take a look?"

Ai Xi and the other two just did what they said. They were really good at it anyway. They were bored, but they were happy to have something to do. They folded up the dried silver grass and packed everything on the other side. The three of them took turns carrying it on their backs.

As a result... they met Jia Bing.

"What should we do?"

"They didn't see us -"

"But they were fighting other sharks."

"It seems to be the blue sharks."

The three of them hid behind the rocks, their voices helpless and frightened. They saw the armored soldiers using weapons in the distance. The spear was thrust at a disobedient blue shark, and soon some blood gushed out from the sea, attracting bloodthirsty fish schools. However, due to the armored soldiers and the beach, these fish schools only stared at the shore in the sea. .

"Tell me, where are the remaining Blue Mermaids? If you don't tell me, you will all end up like this."

"The city lord has an order. The disaster has passed. Blue Ocean City needs its citizens. As Blue Mermaids, you can weave yarn. As long as it passes, there will be no shortage." The food is still very safe. You don't have to hide anymore, just like the Tearman..."

Lan Bei's eyes lit up, he looked at the two sisters and silently mouthed: Our tribe?

Keep listening.

The injured Lanmao fell weakly in front of the beach rocks. The wound was washed by the sea water, which made it even more painful. "Our people are all dead, just like the Lacrima Men, they are all dead."

"Dead? Then you are? What?" The patrol armor soldier didn't believe it at all, and stepped on the Blue Mermaid's wound, "Where are the remaining Blue Mermaids hiding!"

Lan Beiliang's eyes dimmed again, are all their clan members dead?

Ai Xi and Zhen Zhen clenched their fists, and they pulled Lan Bei down. The three of them looked at each other, and they knew what each other was going to do without saying a word. When the armored soldiers couldn't figure it out, they would raise their spears and fork again. When stabbing those blue sharks, a long song came from the sea.

The armored soldier holding the spear was stunned on the spot, his eyes were confused and dull. All the armored soldiers who were traveling with him were like this. Ai Xi quickly swam to the beach and gently pulled the three blue sharks. The blue shark was photographed. , just recovered from the singing.

Swim quickly!

Almost without Ai Xi speaking, the three blue sharks jumped into the sea. When the water splashed, the armored soldiers seemed to have recovered from the singing, and they were somewhat clear. But soon there was another voice relay, and they were immersed in the singing again. .

Until the singing gradually faded away and became erratic.

The armored soldiers woke up, "The song that was just singing was -"

"It was the Tearful Shark. I didn't expect the Tearful Shark to be alive."

"Chase, quickly find out where they went."

The armored soldiers in Hailan City have a kind of turtle that can be traced. There are traces of sea people activities nearby, but because the three people of Ai Xi have been drying things on the beach in this area recently, they have been active for the longest time and the smell left behind is also the strongest. The sea turtles led the patrol armor soldiers to circle around in the nearby sea area, and finally finally A general direction is locked.

That ocean... they haven't been there yet.

Ai Xi and the three men took the three Lanmen to swim all the way to the Feathered Sea -

"This is the Feathered Sea, the name we gave it. This used to be Feathered Mountain, but after the disaster, the mountain disappeared and became Out of the sea, we are the Mermaids. My name is Ai Xi, and she is Lan Bei and Pearl. "

The Mermaid who was injured by the Blue Mermaid is older, about 23 or 24 years old. He is covering the wound with his lips turning white. , holding on and said: "I heard it. If the armored soldiers arrest the Tearman again, you should run away. We should not care about you."

"You, Ai Xi will help you, but you still don't let us care about you." Lan Bei Said angrily.

The injured Lan Meng said: "I'm just afraid that we will hurt you...the soldiers will chase us. This place is very remote, but they will find out that you should go somewhere else."

The other two Lan Meng shouted with tears in their eyes . The injured mermaid's name is 'Promise'.

Lan Bei bit his lip and realized that these Lan Men were also worried about them. Pearl said: "Let's run first, don't stop for too long."

"Bai Yin Cao, wrap up Nuo Yan's wound..." Ash paused, thought of something, and said, "Don't worry about us, I know a place, do you want to go?"

Lan Bei's eyes lit up: "Hundred Beast Village Are we going to the Beast Village?"

Nuoyan and her companions were stunned. The Beast Village... sounds like the territory of the orcs - "Are the orcs still alive

? "Ai Xi was very worried after saying that. She only heard about the Beast Village from A Man and others. There were houses and orcs in the village. Others - she didn't know whether the village chief of the Beast Village welcomed outsiders.

"Let's swim over first and reach the cabin. After that, Lan Bei and Pearl, you guys stay and look at the promise. I'll go to the Beast Village and ask Aman if we can go there."

"Huh?" Lan Bei and Pearl were worried about Ai Xi. A person leaves.

Ai Xi is also a little scared, but let's swim first.

...

Zhuo Yan went to the black iron mine after the summer got cold. When he came back, the team walked slowly with heavy loads. They didn't arrive at the village until late autumn. They walked for about twenty-seven days and brought a lot of prey with them.

He found that there were more prey on the road, but they did not dare to catch them all. They ate half full and let go of half, or female animals.

Whether it was what Zhuo Yan said subtly before, or whether it was the earliest time when they were still in the tribe, the Leopard People had a difficult spring in the early days due to the harsh environment. Even so, everyone followed the experience of the older generation and did not hunt pregnant prey.

Later, when they started farming and had some to eat, everyone discovered that there was less hunting in the spring, and females and pregnant women were not to be hunted. The orcs and sub-orcs in the tribe had more matings and more work. In autumn, life would be much easier.

It's the same now.

"In order to have more meat to eat in the future." The tiger orc touched the trembling reindeer's head lovingly, grinned, and let the female reindeer go, "Go, go, run faster."

This time to Black Iron Mine, most of the orcs are tigers. After all, the Tiger Man's previous tribe - this time, it was razed to the ground and you couldn't tell where it was. The Tiger Man seemed to have completely given up. Originally, their tribe was alive and well in the disaster, and the old tribe was just an empty shell. Son, if it's gone, it's gone.

Now, everyone is in a mess, but when they see the village in the distance in the autumn, they all have an irrepressible smile on their faces, "Back!"

"The harvest in our village is yellow, is it time to harvest it?"

" Should we keep it? The village chief said, "Autumn is getting longer."

"Don't mention it, I kind of miss the rhubarb rice and peanuts." "

'Before', that is, last year, everyone was vegetarian.

Xiao Xian recognized the feathered man flying in the sky first, "It looks like Diao Doudou!"

The eldest son of Kong Xi and Diao Ming. The big eagle screamed loudly and quickly flew back to the village. After a while, there were cubs of feathered people hovering in the sky. There were geese, eagles, and golden-headed tribesmen. On the yellowing grass, the first ones were running. It's Zhuo Le, and behind her are all her friends.

"Daddy, daddy, daddy -" Zhuo Buhei sat on his sister's back and shook his arms wildly, shouting in the air. He was so excited, daddy, daddy, they are back.

When Zhuo Yan heard the loud voice, he couldn't help but smile. He also missed the children. Zhuo Le took the lead and howled. There were many 'left behind' cubs in the cub team - half of the orcs and sub-orcs who went with him this time had children.

But the situation is the same as his family, the children are all grown up, half-grown boys and girls.

The two parties come together.

Zhuo Yan jumped off A Yin's back, and Zhuo Le threw his head into his arms. If A Yin hadn't pushed his head against his back, he would have been knocked down. Zhuo Le rubbed his head against him twice. Stick out your tongue and then pull back hesitantly.

"..." Zhuo Yan saw his daughter's animal-like face, "Excited and excited, Dad, I miss you so much. I really can't stop licking this sloppy and dirty dad in front of me." He couldn't help but laugh out loud. Rubbing Lele's furry head.

Zhuo Buhei flew down and said, "Dad, I want it too, I want to touch it too."

Zhuo Yan touched his youngest son.

Zhuo Buhei pinched his nose and said angrily: "Dad, why do you stink so much?"

"Smelly boy!" Zhuo Yan rubbed it hard again, then looked at his 'calm' eldest son and rubbed it too. He said, "I told you, it's very difficult over there. On the way back - let me think about it, the last time I took a shower was a few days ago, Ah Yin."

Ah Yin still has cargo on his back, so he can do it without turning into a human form. He said, "Seven days ago."

Zhuo Buhei's face wrinkled, and then he let go of the hand pinching his nose, and happily threw himself into his father's arms and then to his father, "Dad, I don't think you stink."

" Even if you don't mind, I hate my smell, and I haven't washed my clothes yet."

Zhuo Buhei's little face turned awkward.

Zhuo Yan was very happy to 'bully' the children. He had an unkempt beard, long hair, and was dirty. He would touch and rub three children one by one, and said with a smile: "It's not that difficult. There is water from time to time along the way. It's just Some of them are very shallow and there are too many people in the team. There is no water for everyone to eat and drink, but there is no way to bathe and wash clothes."

"It's just a matter of appearance. Just go back and clean up."

"My father and I still eat meat outside . " Yeah."

Zhuo Le's animal form clung to his father, whining curiously. Zhuo Yan said: "The red-headed python is much smaller than the giant-toothed python we ate before. We also brought some back and will share them with you later."

"Let's go home first." As Zhuo Yan spoke, he caught a glimpse of two Small brown bears with fluffy and curly hair. Perhaps Zhuo Le ran very fast. The two small brown bears were in the shape of bears. They were panting while running, with the curly hair on their heads jumping. They belatedly came to look for their big brother in the crowd, and then the three bears. Xiongyan Xiongyu 'hold and talk.

Zhuo Yan: No one noticed when he secretly stole a bear, right?

"How are you in the village?" The village chief, under the guise of asking and caring, reached out and touched the heads of the two cubs. Compared with when they fled, the two cubs had new fur colors and rounder faces, making them cuter.

Xiong Guo Xiong Ling nodded happily, then held her brother's arms from left to right.

The troops returned to the village.

Zhuo Kang was carrying Blizzard on his back. He was very big now. Blizzard used to hold him when he was a child, and now he is carrying Blizzard on his back. However, Blizzard was not used to it, so he sat on it carefully and said, "Kang Bao, am I too heavy? Otherwise, I will come down." "Run?"

"Ouch." The lazi voice was full of joy.

Blizzard knew that Kang Bao was in a good mood, but he stopped moving if Kang Bao didn't let him come down.

"Uncle the village chief seems to like touching little bears." Blizzard said.

Zhuo Buhei, who was sitting on his sister's back, heard this, turned to look at Brother Blizzard, and said happily: "So that's it! No wonder I also like to touch little bears, I am just like my father."

Zhuo Le swung his tail and walked with a slow pace. She is very relaxed and kicking, so she looks like her father and her father. The eldest brother is the most like his father. According to his father, the eldest brother has not changed his shape to this day and is exactly the same as his father.

Back in the village, the black ore was first sent to the kiln factory and piled up into a mountain. The team that went out had a short vacation and could rest for three days. Everyone went to the lower reaches of the lake to clean up, and everyone had stubble on their hair. Clean up well.

So is Zhuo Yan.

The three in the family are very diligent and circle around him and Ah Yin. Zhuo Buhei is holding soap and a bone knife like a puppy, Zhuo Le is holding clean new clothes, and Zhuo Kang has a rattan basket hanging on his body. It will be used to store dad and dad's dirty clothes later.

Zhuo Yan and A Yin walked behind, smiling and whispering: "We have to go far away. Did you see the three of them? They kissed us so much!"

A Yin is now in human form, with a dirty leather skirt and long hair, which is a bit Like a handsome version of a savage, because he has silver semi-long hair, A Yin has not turned black even after going out for a run. His beard is all silver. After having a beard, his eyebrows are more deep and three-dimensional.

Zhuo Yan: He is so handsome that his mouth is watering.

"Please trim your beard later and stop shaving."

Ah Yin didn't understand why the topic suddenly changed to him. He glanced at his brother and understood instantly. This time when they went out, the two of them were making out and just went over to do some cleaning. God, I was too busy later, let alone coming back.

My brother loves to be clean and would not be happy if he was dirty.

Both of them were depressed.

"Okay, where's the hair?"

"The hair should be like this, I think it's quite handsome." Zhuo Yan looked at Ah Yin's current appearance and thought of the past. Ah Yin also had long hair of this length at the beginning, because he was very young. , when she was 17 or 18, she was pretty androgynous, but now she is different, much more mature, she looked at it carefully and nodded, "Good-looking."

Ah Yin saw that his brother was satisfied with his appearance, so he walked with wind, and he was also very beautiful. satisfy!

My brother still loves him the most.

I chose a quiet and quiet place downstream to take a bath. Zhuo Buhei, Zhuo Le, Zhuo Kang and the other three were on the shore. From time to time, they handed things to their father and father. While in the water, the three of them were on the shore, talking to each other about the past three days. What happened over the past few months.

Here at the ranch, the lambs gave birth to lambs, the reindeer became pregnant again, and the horned cow gave birth to three calves. The family's Dafu and Da Ming disappeared again, and Da Ming came back with two cubs -

"Huh? Da Ming has a wife. "

No dad, it's two little alpacas."

Zhuo Yan turned around curiously and asked Ah Yin to rub his back while looking at the three of them on the shore.

Zhuo Le said: "Dad, Feng Ling Tiger and I asked Dafu Da Ming to lead us to see the little alpaca. There must be a father and a mother of the little alpaca. After we looked for it, we only found the skin with the internal organs gnawed out." Zhuo Yan

Nervous for a moment, he wanted to say that you three children should run to see if you encounter a large carnivore. But he suppressed his worries and questions. Now that Zhuo Le is still in front of him, it means that the deal with it has been completed.

Moreover, Zhuo Le was able to bring back the little alpaca cub from Dafu Da Ming, and it was concluded that the parents of the llama cub were killed. There are two possibilities. One is that the orcs in their village went out to hunt for food, but the probability is relatively small.

Whenever the orcs in the village hunt larger prey, they will bring it back to the village and hand it over. Of course, they also have selfish motives. If they hunt small prey in private, they will definitely eat it secretly and take care of the two cubs.

The second is that there are carnivorous animals or other orcs nearby.

"Dad, what do you think it is?" Zhuo Le wanted her father to praise her.

Zhuo Yan thought for a moment, "Are those who like to eat sheep the prey we used to have here?"

"No!" Zhuo Buhei shouted.

Zhuo Yan: ...looking at his daughter speechlessly, "I have never met your father, what do you want me to guess?"

"Haha, yes, I forgot." Zhuo Le gritted his teeth and was happy.

Zhuo Kang lay there with a faint smile on his animal face. Zhuo Buhei laughed loudly, and was chased and beaten by his sister. After the fun was over, Zhuo Le ran to the shore and continued to say to his father: "Dad, he is a The implant teeth are long and quite big, a bit like Dafu Daming.

"The black hair is a bit long."

Zhuo Yan named it casually and felt relieved, "Did you catch it?" "

As if he finally got to the 'main topic', Zhuo Le said, 'Dad, please come and praise me', "We three caught it. That guy was so strong. It was a big one. We sent it back to the village and everyone ate a little. "

Zhuo Yan sighed in his heart. I really don't want to praise your daughter. You are very dangerous. Fortunately, it is just a black-haired wild boar of the same kind as Dafu. If it were other large carnivorous prey that I have never seen, you

three little ones. Son, Amanqiao and I are going to cry to death!

"Zhuo Le." Ah Yin suddenly said.

Still shouting names. Zhuo Yan was stunned for a moment, and then he was so blessed that he remained silent and did not speak.

"You take Wind Chime Tiger with you. If the three of you encounter a giant toothed python or other carnivorous prey, you will definitely be injured, or even die." A Yin's voice was flat, but Zhuo Le listened, including still Smiling not too darkly, the siblings gradually became serious.

"You are lucky this time. If you are not so lucky next time, your partner will die in front of you. Think about it."

Zhuo Le lowered the corners of his mouth, not wanting to think about that scene.

If the two of them were really hurt or killed because of her suggestion -

"Father, I know I was wrong, and there will definitely be no next time." Zhuo Le sniffed.

Zhuo Yan felt a little soft-hearted, and then his butt was patted underwater. Zhuo Yan said...

"Okay, okay, my daughter knows that I was wrong. What your father said is right. Just listen to it. Now it is different from before." Likewise, there are a lot of unseen prey now, even the experienced orcs in the village. They have to consider the prey they have never seen before. Some prey are also poisonous. For example, we encountered a red-headed python this time. It's poisonous, but the body can be eaten after cutting off the head..."

The little guys were indeed happy again and urged their father to tell more about the black iron ore.

Zhuo Yan: Hehe, I am a gentle and good father, and Ah Yin is a serious and black-faced father!

With a new look, Zhuo Yan is in good spirits, but his cheeks are a little thinner. The children are very distressed. Zhuo Le Zhuo Buhei wants to go home and cook instead of his father. Zhuo Yan: "Okay, you guys go back first. Your father and I will come right after we finish cleaning up."

Wait until the three figures are out of sight.

Zhuo Yan looked at Ah Yin angrily, "How dare you slap my butt!"

"Brother, your face has lost weight, but your butt has not." Ah Yin said strangely.

There's nothing strange about this.

He's just in such good shape. Zhuo Yan took the opportunity to find trouble, "No, you just filmed me, I have to -"

"Brother, tell me how to punish me."

Zhuo Yan: Hehe, hehehe.

He and Ah Yin really have a tacit understanding. When he was educating the children just now, he was lying on his back with his back to Ah Yin, without giving Ah Yin a wink. Ah Yin knew that he would be the 'bad guy', so now he was driving three of them home as an excuse. There are also deliberately looking for trouble - there is only one purpose!

"I took a shower and brushed my teeth. It smells good now. I want you to kiss me." Zhuo Yan leaned over to kiss Ah Yin and muttered: "Beard kisses are a bit scummy."

Ah Yin's beard was trimmed and shaved short, only There was a ring of stubble left, and because it was silver, it looked like an old man's stubble in modern times, but it didn't look out of place on Ah Yin's face, and was even a bit 'divine'.

...

That night, Ah Yin was thinking about building three more houses before winter. He was counting the time to find people. The children were all grown up, and in the blink of an eye, Zhuo Le and the others could hunt.

Living together is not great.

The three Zhuo Le had no idea that their father wanted to build a house for them, but they were happy now that their father came back. They talked a lot, ate together, chatted together, and his father kissed them on the cheek before going to bed.

So happy!

Zhuo Yan was a little sleepy. After all, he came back in a hurry. He yawned and said, "Go to sleep, Ah Yin."

"Well." Ah Yin couldn't sleep and was still thinking about building a house. In fact, there is no need to wait until next spring to burn out this batch of black iron ore and wait until next year to dig it. Then there will be some free time. It doesn't snow very much and isn't cold in winter, and the house is built right in front of their house, so my brother doesn't have to worry about the safety of the cubs.

...On the fourth day after Zhuo Yan came back, at noon, Aman and his patrol team suddenly ran to the kiln factory to look for him and said, "Do you remember the little mermaid girl I told you before?"

"Well, What's wrong?" Zhuo Yan remembered, "Ai Xilan Beizhu, are they here?"

Who knew Aman said: "No -"

Oh, he just said, no matter what, he should come next year.

"It's the Blue Creepers. Two Blue Creepers are here." Aman looked a little worried and said, "They found them by the patrol and said they came to me and called my name. It was Aixituo and the others who came here." "

This The two blue sharks almost went the wrong way. It has been very hot at noon in the past few days and they were a little short of water. Fortunately, they met a patrol and I sent them to take a dip in the lake. "

General Aman. He handed the thing in his hand to Zhuo Yan.

"This is Silver Grass. They said that Ai Xi asked them to bring it. They were afraid that we wouldn't believe it."

Zhuo Yan took it and did not study the Silver Grass carefully. Instead, he walked out with A Man, "It seems that your mermaid friend met When it comes to danger, they are naive but quite smart."

"Don't worry,"

Zhuo Yan comforted Aman.

Two male indigo men emerged from the lake. Their lower bodies looked like fish tails under the clear water. Their upper bodies had flat chests. Both of them had blue hair, fair skin, and delicate facial features, but there was some fear in their eyes.

However, when they saw Aman, their fear dissipated a little.

"This is the head of our Hundred Beast Village. If you have anything to say to him," Aman said.

The Blue Mermaids looked at the village chief, and one of them said: "My clansman Nuo Yan was injured by the armored soldiers of Lanhai City. The Tearful Creatures saved us. They are in the cabin."

"The armored soldiers may catch up."

" Ai Xi and the others can sing to confuse the soldiers and let us come to the Beast Village. I want to ask, can we, can we live in the Beast Village?"

"We know it will cause you trouble and bring some danger..."

Aman tightened his grip . fist.

Zhuo Yan finished pondering, "... Just try those weapons."

The orcs on the patrol:! ! ! excited! You can have weapons!

They all said that they were willing to go and see what kind of armored soldiers they were!
