He is not the beast
Chapter 81
"Kong Xingxing has an egg?"
"Did you hear that clearly? Shitou, that big guy Kong Xingxing laid an egg?"
"Xiaoyue, your brother has an egg."
Kong Huo and the four of them were in the rattan basket behind them. Muttering in disbelief, Kong Yue was also shocked for a long time, stumbling and finally struggling out of the rattan basket. The four of them were busy: "Yeah, let's go and have a look.", "We've all arrived at the Leopard Man tribe, and I won't sit in the rattan basket anymore.", "We agreed, unless I die, I don't want to go back.", "This journey has been too torturous. I would rather be killed here."
...
Kong Xingxing's mind was all about 'The big guy laid an egg', and he had no time to care about what the tribesmen behind him were saying. He stiffly moved his neck and waved again. He flapped his wings and let out the first cry of the Leopard Man tribe -
a hoarse croaking sound due to lack of water from running all the way.
Aman was frightened by the rough cry and looked at Boss Kong. Is this the sound coming from the throat of the beautiful and weak Kong Xingxing?
Kong Xingxing: ...
He transformed into a human form with difficulty.
"Can you take me to find the stone? Aman." Kong Xingxing was eager and polite.
Aman nodded in a daze, why did Boss Kong become like this - "I'll take you there. His mother and father should not be at home. Shitou and his younger brothers and sisters are incubating eggs."
The weather is getting hot, Shitou's mother Dad has always been saying that it is difficult to mate in the cave and there are too many children. Recently, he goes out before dawn and comes back at night instead of staying in the cave.
"Wait for me." Kong Xingxing called to Aman, then turned back a few steps to put on his clothes and wash up by the river.
Aman: ...It's still the same Boss Kong.
Otherwise, he would think that he was in estrus because he was too uncomfortable and imagined.
Xiao Xian ran very fast and hurriedly panted to the entrance of Shitou's cave. Knowing that Shitou's mother was not there, he rushed in and said, "Shitou, Shitou, come and see, Boss Kong is here."
"Huh?" Shi Shi was cooking and rubbed his eyes. Xiao Xian was still in front of him.
Xiao Xian pulled Shitou's hand anxiously, "Really, the Lion Tribe came so early this year. Boss Kong was sitting in the rattan basket of the Lion Tribe, and Maha was talking to me and A Man. I didn't even want to talk to him. I ignored him and talked about you. When Boss Kong heard this, he waved his wings and came to him. It was really a peacock."
Shitou was shocked, his heart suddenly moved, and he said: How is it possible? The Yumen are far away from the Leopard Man tribe. , how could Kong Xingxing run so far if he was so afraid of getting tired, but he couldn't help thinking 'What if it's true' and 'Is Xingxing really coming?', and his feet followed Xiao Xian towards the entrance of the cave.
Xiao Xian originally wanted to refute after listening to Shi Shi's muttering, but before he could say anything, he was pulled by Shi Shi first. Shi Shi was running so fast in front that he was almost dragged behind.
"Slow down, slow down."
"Where are the stars? Xiao Xian."
"Just, right by the river, under the tree, under the tree..." Xiao Xian was running out of breath.
After hearing the address, Shitou let go of his hand without looking back: "You run slowly, I'll go over and take a look first."
"..." Xiao Xian fell to the spot, watching Shitou running very fast on his legs, and muttered to his chest. He said, "Just now I was saying that I didn't believe that I ended up running so fast." But he was curious and wanted to see what Kong Xingxing looked like when he saw the stone, so he gritted his teeth and continued running.
Shitou thought he would see Kong Xingxing again. What he thought was that in three to five years, if his sister Dayun turned into an orc, she could take him there. But at that time, he didn't know if Kong Xingxing still remembered him. Kong Xingxing looked so good. She is so beautiful and beautiful. I heard that many people from the Five Feather Tribes are after Kong Xingxing. What if Kong Xingxing is with someone else.
But...he couldn't get there. No one was carrying him. Neither the tiger man nor the werewolf wanted to go to the feathered market anymore. The lion man stayed far away. The leopard man and the orc only carried his mate, unless it was his sister or brother. them.
But it took too long.
It had been so long that Shi Tou didn't dare to think about what would happen in three to five years. He felt that Kong Xingxing would definitely have a feathered companion in three to five years. When he thought about this, Shi Tou felt pain in his heart. Then he touched the egg cub and muttered: It's okay. Fortunately, fortunately, I took off Xingxing's skirt and slept with Xingxing for eight and a half days. Fortunately, I gave birth to a baby egg.
Shitou never thought that Kong Xingxing would come to him.
Yu Man likes those with rich feathers and bright colors, likes those with human-shaped skin that are slender and smooth, and he likes those with delicate and compact figures. He is not one of them. He has a pair of big hands, is tall and strong, and has neither slender skin nor white skin.
It was he who used his strength to hold Kong Xingxing down. It was he who took the initiative to kiss Kong Xingxing. It was he who always said that Kong Xingxing was so beautiful and liked him. Kong Xingxing called him big guy and never said that he liked her...
But now, by the river, , the stars are standing there.
She is thinner than she was last year. Her originally beautiful and smooth hair is shorter and frizzy. Her skirt used to be neat and smooth, but now it is messy. Her skin was flawless then, but now there are some red marks on her shoulders and arms.
At this moment, Shi Shi firmly believed that he liked Kong Xingxing, and Kong Xingxing also liked him, even more than he thought. He also liked him when he called him Big Guy. In order to find him, he suffered so much and suffered so much, but he still had to do it. Come to him.
"Am I not beautiful anymore? Why does he look at me like that?" Kong Xingxing became nervous when he saw the big man standing there and couldn't come over. For the first time, he doubted his appearance. He looked down and saw that the hair on his skirt was messed up, and he stretched out his hand to think. To soothe.
This big guy just likes him to look pretty. It's damning that it came so quickly. He hasn't even finished fixing his skirt yet. Is his hair messed up?
Shitou heard Kong Xingxing's whisper and saw Kong Xingxing's fear. His heart hurt again, but this time it was different from the previous pain. This time he was a little happy. He ran over and hugged Kong Xingxing. , kissed him.
Four members of the Peacock Clan: Wow, ah, ah, wow!
Is this sub-orc just holding Kong Xingxing and chewing it? Kong Xingxing didn't even speak to Kong Xingxing. Kong Xingxing just let this sub-orc kiss him without making any fuss or scolding him. It was really strange.
Kong Yue whispered: "This is the big guy."
"Of course we know Xiaoyue.", "I just didn't expect your brother. Your brother usually curses in front of us, but in the end he was hugged and kissed.", "This big guy is indeed Big guy, he hugged your brother in circles." "Your brother didn't curse? He pressed Kong Xingxing's hair."
Shitou was so excited that he let Xingxing down. Xingxing's eyes were very beautiful and she stared at him. Shitou chuckled and said, "I know, I know, it's your hair, but it's very beautiful. Xingxing, your hair is also very beautiful."
"Of course I know." Kong Xingxing He became proud again.
Shitou was so happy that he stretched out his hand to push Xingxing's hair back. He just couldn't see enough. Why did Xingxing come to him and come over?
"I borrowed the lion orcs in exchange for the salt team."
"You are so smart." Shitou praised sincerely.
The two of them were tired of being here, Shitou looked at the stars with burning eyes, and wished he could take off Xingxing's skirt. Kong Xingxing felt a little embarrassed, he was tired from the journey, and now he doesn't know if he can fuck the big guy with his legs weak, but this can't be the first time It's just a short time.
Fortunately, Xiao Xian arrived. He looked around and found that Shitou and Kong Xingxing were still hugging each other, but Aman was missing. There were other Peacock tribes under the shade of a tree not far away - those few people were not lion tribe at first glance. of.
"You are really here." Xiao Xian walked over to say hello, imitating Brother Zhuo Yan, "My name is Xiao Xian, and I am a sub-orc from the Leopard Tribe. You must be from the Peacock Tribe, right?"
Kong Huo nodded.
Xiao Xian saw a peacock tribe member who was younger than him and took the initiative to chat with others. He felt that the other four were not very enthusiastic, so he couldn't help but smile. Kong Yue felt the kindness of the other party and said, "My name is Kong Yue, and my brother is Kong Xingxing."
"So you are Boss Kong's younger brother."
After the conversation, Xiao Xian had nothing to say, turned around and talked to Boss Kong. She was still holding her, so she couldn't help but whisper, "Why are you still holding me?"
The four peacocks who were originally 'cold and indifferent' became lively.
"That's right.", "Whoever dared to touch Kong Xingxing in the past would have their arms poked out by you.", "It even pressed down on Kong Xingxing's hair, and Kong Xingxing didn't even curse.", "Really - who of you would dare? Xin Kong and Xingxing's tempers have improved. "
Xiao Xian found it interesting to hear the conversation of a few people. After we got to know each other, we would work and play together. Later, Xiao Xian asked why you were so cold when we first met. I was still a little bit. Scared, the four of them chirped, which probably meant that they were about to vomit after a bumpy ride, felt motion sick, and were still very hungry.
Anyway, the Leopard Man tribe is lively again today.
Aman went to find Zhuo Yan, and Huo Xia asked Maha to inform the clan leader while taking the lion tribe to the resting place. The forest was still a bit messy and had not been cleaned up this year. Unexpectedly, the lion tribe came so early.
Ah Yin is roaring.
A Man stood at the door and screamed: "I didn't mean to disturb you.", "I didn't see anything.", "I didn't see A Yin, you pressing Zhuo Yan and kissing on the door.", "I didn't see Zhuo Yanpi either. The skirt is about to fall off."
Zhuo Yan was ashamed and angry, A Man must have done it on purpose.
"You'd better be here for something!" Zhuo Yan said harshly.
Aman Gagale stood at the stove, waiting for the people inside to get dressed, and said: "Boss Kong Xingxing and Kong came to our tribe to look for stones. Is this serious business?"
"This is big gossip, I am the first Time just wants to tell you, your Ayin is still mean to me."
Zhuo Yan, who was wearing leather in the hole, gave him a hand. Kong Xingxing is here? Real or fake? But when I thought about it, Aman wouldn't lie to him. During this season, everyone in the Leopard Tribe knew that respecting each other's privacy was not a big deal, and Aman really wouldn't choose this time to barge in.
"Wait for me." Zhuo Yan shouted. While coaxing Ah Yin, they kissed her. Ah Yin deepened the kiss, and inevitably made some noise. Zhuo Yan's ears turned red, and the orc ears were also very sensitive. Outside, A Man must have known that they were kissing inside.
Aman knew it, and Aman regretted it again. He was indeed not as smart as Shitou. Shitou fell in love with Kong Xingxing and that was when Shitou fell in love with Kong Xingxing. Whoever is like him shouldn't be awkward. If he had known earlier, he would have mated with Dahn first before talking about anything else.
After a while, Zhuo Yan finished cleaning up and hurriedly cleaned it - the water in the cave had not stopped in the past few days. Fortunately, otherwise he would really feel like he was running naked due to the smell.
"Let's go and have a look."
Aman smiled. Seeing that Zhuo Yan's face, ears and neck were all red, he didn't want to tease him anymore - mainly because A Yin was looking at him behind Zhuo Yan. Aman had no choice but to lead the way while talking about what he had just seen.
"The lion-man orc is carrying a rattan basket, and Boss Kong is nesting inside. I think there are several more."
Zhuo Yan: "How many?"
"Four or five? I can't see clearly."
"Isn't that the Peacock tribe? They're all here."
There are only six people in total. It doesn't matter if four or five of them come. Aman: Yes.
Zhuo Yan was thinking about something. Aman didn't hear the sound for a long time. He looked back and asked, "What's wrong?" Zhuo Yan said, "Looking at Boss Kong's attitude, it doesn't look like he wants to go back."
"What do you mean, Kong? " The boss is staying?" Aman was shocked.
Zhuo Yan nodded, "With a family and a family, the journey is long -" he couldn't help but smile happily, "Let's exchange our sincerity for sincerity. Danzai has a biological father."
Aman was happy when he heard this, "Let's let him go when the time comes. When Boss Kong goes to hatch the eggs, Shitou can play with us. Don't stay in the cave all day long."
"Boss Kong is here, do you think Shitou still wants to play with us? Don't forget, Yurenji. The city, Shitou won't even come back,"
Aman: "..."
The two of them teased Shitou all the way, saying so, but their faces were full of joy, happy for Shitou. Zhuo Yan was still thinking that if Boss Kong really didn't want to stay, he would have to ask the clan leader for permission. He didn't know if that would work.
When they arrived, they saw Xiao Xian sitting under a tree with several other unfamiliar peacock men. Zhuo Yan counted and found that there were exactly six good guys including Kong Xingxing. The whole peacock clan came, and they were even more convinced that he was there. speculation.
If Kong Xingxing came here for love alone, he might be able to leave if he couldn't survive, but taking the whole clan with him, this move would be a bit decisive.
"Brother Zhuo Yan!" Xiao Xian was the first to notice. He turned to Xiao Yue and said, "Don't be afraid, Brother Zhuo Yan is here."
"Is he the leader of your clan?" Kong Huo asked.
Xiao Xian waved his hands hurriedly: "No, no."
"Then can he keep us?"
Xiao Xian couldn't say for sure, but he felt that Brother Zhuo Yan was more capable than the rest of them. Zhuo Yan greeted a few people and learned the names of the four people during the chat. Kong Yue was Kong Xingxing's younger brother. The lion tribe had already gone to the forest, and the clan leader had just passed by.
"The forest needs to be repaired, and if there is one missing, we need to build a resting place." Zhuo Yan said.
It used to be a resting place for the werewolf and tiger tribes. Last year, the lion people came to temporarily stay in another tribe's territory. This year, all three tribes came over. According to the plan, the tribe wanted to build an extra resting place and repair the original resting place, but they didn't expect the lion tribe. Came so early.
"My brother is urging the lion-human race." Kong Yue whispered.
Kong Huo said: "It's not us who are urging us, the lion people also want to come here as soon as possible." "They lion people still value your tribe very much."
A few peacocks chirped.
Zhuo Yan heard that the four of them were saying good things to the lion people - they reciprocated the favor, and the lion people gave them a ride. They said good things to the lion people. From this, it can be seen that although the peacock people sometimes speak in a harsh voice, they still He has a good heart and remembers favors.
Just like Kong Xingxing, on the way back last year, Shitou sometimes told them about his interactions with Kong Xingxing and what Kong Xingxing said. At first glance, Zhuo Yan, an outsider, thought that Kong Xingxing was too arrogant and did not take Shi Shi to heart. He suppressed Shi Shi with his words, but in fact -
Zhuo Yan looked not far away. Under the shade of the tree, Boss Kong seemed to have lost weight. The whole circle is a bit sloppy and tired, the hair has lost some luster, and the complexion is a little bad, but Boss Kong's eyes are bright when looking at the stone, his mouth is still proud, and his eyes can't deceive anyone.
Boss Kong really, really likes stones.
It's so good.
"How long have they been chatting?"
Xiao Xian: "They've been holding each other for a while anyway."
"Did Shitou tell Boss Kong that he laid an egg?" Zhuo Yan asked.
Xiao Xian's brows furrowed, and A Man said don't worry next to him, "As soon as Boss Kong landed, I told him to let Boss Kong hatch the eggs."
Zhuo Yan nodded, that's good, everyone can speak clearly, don't misunderstand. .
"No, Aman, you told me, but I dragged Shitou over. Until now, Shitou has been kissing and hugging Boss Kong. Boss Kong said that it was uncomfortable on the road, so Shitou coaxed Boss Kong. Anyway, they are still here Didn't say Dancub." Xiao Xian doubted himself and looked at the others, "Xiaoyue, you just heard that the stone gave birth to a Dancub, right?"
Kong Yue nodded and heard.
Kong Huo and the other four: "Did you really give birth?", "What kind of egg?", "They haven't talked about it now.", "Kong Xingxing said before that other people's eggs are ugly.", "Then. It's someone else's too."
The four of them grew up with Kong Xingxing, and they all knew with their toes that when Kong Xingxing saw the egg laid by that big beast, he would not say it was ugly, but would only praise it for its beauty.
Kong Xingxing has double standards. He said before that he would not sleep with ugly people, but according to the aesthetics of the peacock tribe, stones are not really good-looking, so Kong Xingxing just sleeps with ugly people. I said before that the cubs born to peacocks and eagles are ugly, but now...
Zhuo Yan went over and said it. Shitou's face was full of happiness, and he suddenly remembered it and took Xing Xing's hand, "After I come back, I will give birth in autumn." I laid an egg, but it hasn't hatched yet. It's great that you're here, Xingxing. How did the egg hatch?"
"I didn't hear you wrong. You really gave birth to our cub." Kong Xingxing couldn't wait. , and once again felt that Winter's idea of ââwanting to see the stone before he died was absolutely correct, "Is it called Danzai? It sounds so nice."
"The color of Danzai is the same green as your hair."
"Then it's so pretty. "
That's right."
"Where is it? I'll go hatch it."
"It's at my house. I'll take you there."
Zhuo Yan: ...
The four peacocks not far behind said... they exchanged looks. Right', 'Kong Xingxing really has double standards', 'Run away now? ', 'Where are we going? '.
In the end, Zhuo Yan helped to receive him.
The Lion Clan is here, and not only that, the Peacock Clan is also hereâalthough there are only six of them. The clan leader found Zhuo Yan. Zhuo Yan thought for a moment, but still didn't say anything about the Peacock clan's plans to stay. Kong Xingxing and Shitou just disappeared. The clan leader must have noticed the relationship between the two. As for how to settle the Peacock clan in the future. , then they will wait until Shitou is free, they agreed, and Zhuo Yan is talking to the clan leader.
In short, now is: rebuild the resting place in the forest and repair the resting place.
"As for the Peacock clan... I know they are used to living in tree houses. Zhuo Yan, take a look at them and ask them how to build a tree house. You can arrange it." The clan leader said.
Zhuo Yan agreed immediately. He felt that the clan leader was quite friendly and kind to the Peacock clan. To a certain extent, it can only be said that fortunately the Peacock tribe did not have salt before and could not make deals with the four orc tribes, otherwise the tone would definitely not be the same today.
Not even with stones.
The orcs who built the resting place last year all had experience, and this year they set aside an area to continue working on it. This year, the Lion Tribe has twenty-five orcs, more than ten sub-orcs and six cubs, and Natsuki is here.
Zhuo Yan greeted Xia Shu, "It's been a hard journey."
"It was quite hard, but we took a few detours and finally found a shortcut. It will be easier when we go back." Xia Shu said.
Zhuo Yan said with a smile: "It doesn't matter if you come early, you can stay longer."
"Our clan leader thinks the same way. We changed a lot of salt last year, but the food we gave was not very good. I came here early this time. I heard that I still have to study."
"Yes." Zhuo Yan knew that Xia Shu was not a test, and everyone was very open about what they said here. "We just finished burning the kiln not long ago. We got the pottery from Yuren Market in exchange for it, and we also planted fields.
"Fields?" "
I planted some potatoes. I exchanged a lot of seeds with Kong Xi at Yuren Market last year, and planted them all, including mung beans and peanuts," Zhuo Yan didn't say anything about exchanging them with Diao Ren. Yes, only the name Kong Xi was mentioned.
Ranking list of the four orc tribes hating the feathered people, the first one is definitely the eagle people, the second is the eagle people, then the wild goose people, the golden head tribe, and finally the peacock tribe.
Seeing Xia Shu's curiosity, Zhuo Yan smiled and said, "I can teach you how to do it. It's not difficult."
"Really?" Xia Shu's eyes lit up, "I've actually thought about it before, since everything They are mud beans that grow from the ground. I know you leopard people like to call them potatoes. Why can't we bury them in the soil ourselves and let them grow longer, but it doesn't work. I have been struggling for a long time, and some of them are rotten in the ground and cannot grow. When they came out, some only had a little green buds, and they died soon."
Zhuo Yan couldn't help but admire him. He came here with his own golden finger, but Xia Shu was native, he could think of planting it, and he even experimented. It's been great.
"The methods need to be improved. If you fail to do this, you will be laughed at, right?"
Xia Shu nodded, "Just laugh if they laugh. I don't care. It would be great if we could harvest more mud beans and everyone would be full." "
I asked Aman to teach you how to grow potatoes. Everyone in our tribe knows it."
"Okay, thank you Zhuo Yan." Xia Shu knew that Zhuo Yan was very busy, and the leader of the Leopard tribe trusted Zhuo Yan.
The entire Leopard Man tribe became busy again.
The Lion Tribe came too early, and the salt temperature was not good at this time. The clan leader knew the Lion Tribe's urgent mood, and this time the Lion Tribe brought a lot of things, including a huge dragon skin and some extremely hard bones. Only Brachydramon has it.
Brachydramons are difficult to catch and very dangerous.
The clan leader sighed at what the lion clan leader had brought this time. After putting it down, he said to the lion clan clan leader: "You guys rest for two days first. When you are settled, we will go get the salt. The temperature is not high now, so we can only boil the salt. Boil it." The first steps of salting and sun-drying salt are the same, but the last step is different..."
The leader of the Lion Clan was very happy and nodded happily.
Here Zhuo Yan found Kong Xingxing. As the leader of the Peacock tribe, Kong Xingxing couldn't tell at all. When he arrived, he followed Shitou Zuan. When he found Shitou's home, there was a big peacock nesting on Shitou's stone bed - the original shape.
Boss Kong was actually incubating the eggs, and he was very happy, his eyes were moving, and he was happy.
Zhuo Yan told him the reason for his visit, and Boss Kong chattered, turning into a human form due to communication difficulties, and blurted out: "By the way, where are Kong Yue and the others staying these days?" He
finally thought of his younger brother and his clan members.
This is still the clan leader. Zhuo Yan really wants to ask you how you chose this clan leader. He really asked, and Kong Xingxing really said it.
"I am the most beautiful peacock in our clan. If I am not the clan leader, who should be?"
Zhuo Yan: Trance, trance, trance.
You choose the clan leader based on his reputation.
"Zhuo Yan has been blaming me these past few days. I was so happy to see the stars that I forgot that there were people from the Xingxing tribe." Shitou said, with some annoyance on his face.
In fact, Shitou asked, but Kong Xingxing interrupted. Kong Xingxing said: They are not stupid. They have somewhere to go, so don't worry about them for now. I will go and take a look later.
"It's okay, they are all in our tribe, and we will definitely not throw them out." Zhuo Yan hurriedly comforted Shitou and said, "I temporarily arranged for them to rest under the shed of the kiln factory, but it is not a long-term solution, or they will stay here for ten days. It was fine for half a month, but it was very messy there. After that, it was inconvenient for people to come and go as they had to work on drying salt and burning kilns. I came here this time to ask Boss Kong whether you should stay alone or leave with your tribe before winter. "It's so convenient for me to arrange accommodation for the Peacock clan."
Kong Xingxing stood there and said, "I have no intention of going back this time."
"If the big guy doesn't want me, the Leopard People can't keep him. I'll look at the big guy. I will leave, but now I don't want to leave."
"Zhuo Yan, my people have nowhere to go."
Kong Xingxing came and hugged him. Later, because Kong Yue and Kong Huo joined in, he still had to think about the escape route for the five people. But now, Shitou still likes him very much and has not forgotten him at all. They also have a beautiful green heart. of eggs.
He doesn't want to die, he wants to live well.
Shitou also said: "Zhuo Yan, I plan to dig a hole and live with Xingxing and Dancub." It might be a little harder, but he was not afraid.
Zhuo Yan couldn't help feeling a little emotional. When he first came here, he deliberately teased Aman. He called Aman brother every day and played with Aman. Shitou said most solemnly: Sub-orcs and sub-orcs can't survive.
Shitou is rational and realistic, but Shitou falls in love with the beautiful Kong Xingxing. For survival in the orc world, Kong Xingxing is nothing but beautiful - and this kind of beauty is limited to Shitou, and only Shitou can appreciate it.
But now, Stone has made up his mind.
"Boss Kong, if you want to stay with your tribe for a long time, you'd better show your skills." Zhuo Yan said.
"You can do it alone. You have a stone and an egg cub. Our tribe has also had such a precedent. You can live in a cave with the stone. But if your tribe also stays, and you don't want to be looked down upon by our tribe, you can't be lazy and do nothing. Leopard The orcs of the human race are diligent and brave. The orcs hunt, patrol, and work with the orcs to plant pottery, pick meat, and dry salt. "
Zhuo Yan knows the pride of the peacock clan, so let's talk ugly. Otherwise, the leopard people will be lazy for a long time. If you underestimate them, these peacocks will not be able to bear it, and then the stone will be in a dilemma.
Shitou knew that Zhuo Yan said all these things and was afraid to look at Xingxing. He knew that Xingxing didn't like to work. Apart from taking care of some beautiful flowers and plants, other Xingxing was too dirty and tired. In fact, he could do it, but...
What to do with the people of Xingxing?
What Zhuo Yan said is right. The tribe hates lazy people.
Kong Xingxing looked up and said loudly: "I can lead the tribe to work together. Maybe hunting and patrolling can't be done. Our peacocks are too weak and not as good as the orcs, but we can pick and plant."
Shi Shi's eyes turned red.
Xingxing could say this, but he was not as good as the orcs. The proud Xingxing told the truth.
Both parties consider each other carefully and think about the long-term life rather than the impulse of the moment.
"Chief Kong, I heard that your Peacock clan is good at weaving clothes and making skirts. In fact, I have a way to help you convince our clan leader to let you stay in our tribe..."
There is a specialization in the art, and Kong is not needed. Xingxing takes his tribe members - those peacocks carry bricks and burn kilns. He has other uses and is more suitable for the peacock tribe.
Chapter 82
Kong Xingxing said to give him a day and he would discuss it with his clan members. Of course Zhuo Yan had no problem, but after noon, Kong Xingxing came over with his tribe and made an agreement.
Zhuo Yan:? ? As expected, your tribe is small in number, and you are very fluent in talking about things.
"I don't want to go back.", "It's just that it's getting hotter and hotter now. It took a lot of effort to get here. If I go back now, wouldn't it cost me my life?", "I would rather find a tree to hit and die among the leopard people." , "If you sit on the Lion Clan's rattan basket and squeeze together with those leathers, Kong Xingxing, just kill me."
"Just make clothes, it's not like I haven't done it before.", "It's better than carrying a big bag What kind of animal is it that Taiyang is going out to hunt?", "I can be killed instantly if the blood is all over me", "Which of the real prey is someone else eating me or me?"
chirped.
But Zhuo Yan understood. The five Peacocks had spent all their patience and pains running here. As for work, it was great for Peacock not to hunt.
The original appearance of the peacock tribe, looking at the entire grassland, is that even catching chickens and rabbits is a bit dangerous - the chickens and rabbits here are very big, survive in the wild, and their fighting power is not weak. Anyway, they are stronger than the peacocks who used to be delicate and relied on their faces for food.
So after Kong Xingxing finished knitting clothes, the five people including Kong Yue secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Little Kong Yue was also ready to pick up the knife and go hunting. As a result, everyone was very happy and agreed immediately.
Even though we have come, it is impossible to go back. Hunting requires life, and knitting is just the thing.
The five people even wondered if Zhuo Yan had opened a back door for them because of the stone.
Zhuo Yan: Keep smiling.
These four people are really eloquent.
In the evening of that day, Zhuo Yan took six members of the Peacock clan to the square to find the clan leader. The clan leader and uncle were all there. After arriving, Kong Xingxing stood up, a little different from when he was in the stone cave, much more serious and solemn.
He really looks like a 'patriarch'.
After Kong Xingxing said hello, he first said: "There are only six of us Peacock clan left now. We are on the five hills of Yuren. Because we cannot carry salt, we have been bullied and plundered by the other four clans. Our hills are being bullied and plundered by the left and right Jintou clan, The Yanren tribe is slowly being swallowed up, and our tribe seems to be non-competitive and idle, but in fact we can't fight. As time goes by, the other four tribes all think that we, the Peacock tribe, are lazy. In fact, we were not at first. We have no choice but to do this. "
When the Peacock Tribe was prosperous, the entire mountain was very lush. The tribesmen liked to make their territory beautiful and orderly. They would weave and make skirts. The flowers, plants and berries produced by their hands would be particularly bright, beautiful and sweet, and the tree houses they built would be even more beautiful. Beautiful appearance and comfortable function.
The tribesmen sing, dance, pick and plant, and live a carefree life.
Salt is also given by the other four tribes in exchange for berries, feathers, or courtship. Only when the peacock tribe is willing and happy to be pursued will they agree to mate with each other.
But I don't know when the deal turned sour. The salt tribes, especially the Eagles and Eagles, were tough and rude. They used salt to force and force the Peacock, but the proud Peacock was not angry at it.
"...The previous clan leader once crashed into a tree and died in order not to be persecuted by the Yingren." Kong Xingxing said.
Zhuo Yan didn't know about this. When he looked at the others, Kong Yue was crying, and he raised his hand to wipe his tears.
"Since then, the people in the tribe have been in a panic. They really want to eat salt. There are also some who would rather die than be coerced. I will follow them. Those who want to be alive will find some good feather people as soon as possible and go to their mountains to live. Those who don't want to be coerced can just Stay... and then we died, and only a few of us were left."
"Leopard Man Clan Leader, to be honest, if it hadn't been for the encounter with the stone, all of us, the Peacock Clan, would have been dead last winter,"
Zhuo Yan . Shocked in my heart, it turned out that Kong Xingxing and his tribe were not joking about hitting the tree, but they were really determined to die. In the primitive world, survival is instinct, and Zhuo Yan also wants to survive. But even if they are orcs, they still occupy humans, and humans have personality and dignity.
Would rather die than surrender.
"Leopard People Clan Leader, Kong Xingxing, the leader of the Peacock Clan, is willing to join the Leopard People Clan, even without the peacock. I hope the Leopard People Clan Leader will keep us. I promise, we can weave clothes and pick fruits."
Zhuo Yan at this time Said: "The ramie I brought back last year will be harvested this autumn, and it can be used to weave cloth. In this regard, the Peacock clan has exquisite craftsmanship."
Just for the 'necklace top' Shitou bought, the Peacock clan must not have a loom. , it is made of plant fibers or feathers, and then weaved. The effect, especially the hemming, is really no different from the handicrafts sold in modern times.
Very beautiful and sturdy.
Faced with Kong Xingxing's frankness, the Leopard Man Clan leader also said bluntly: "I know it since you borrowed the Lion Man team to come here. The Peacock Clan can stay, and there is no need to get rid of the Peacock title. We Leopard Man Clan are not that stingy. But Kong Xingxing, you and your tribe are living in the Leopard People's territory, you have to promise me something."
"Clan leader, please tell me." Kong Xingxing said.
The leader of the Leopard People looked at Zhuo Yan and said, "From now on, you, the Peacock clan, will follow Zhuo Yan's arrangements."
Zhuo Yan:? ah? He was really confused.
But the patriarch looked at him, his eyes full of vicissitudes of life but still a little firm. Zhuo Yan fell silent, suppressing his questions for the time being and not asking any questions.
"Okay." Kong Xingxing said solemnly.
The leader of the Leopard People nodded and said: "Zhuo Yan, if you want to dig a hole into the stone, you can do it on the mountain next to you. The trees there are not very lush, but you can dig a hole for the winter. It is also close to the water source, so that the stone and the peacock can The entire clan must live there."
"I understand, clan leader." Zhuo Yan understood. That place is closer to his home and more peripheral, and there may be danger of an attack by the beast tide. However, if the Peacock clan is placed too close to the inside, the clan members may also have some complaints and distrust in their hearts.
After all, we are 'outsiders', so let's put things in perspective first, and let everyone get used to each other in a few years.
After Kong Xingxing and his party left, the clan leader called Zhuo Yan. Zhuo Yan actually understood that the clan leader had something to say to him, but the clan leader looked at him for a long time. Zhuo Yan was feeling uneasy. The clan leader said: "This year's tribal affairs, Please be more considerate."
"Okay." Zhuo Yan agreed.
The clan leader smiled and said, "Go back."
Zhuo Yan was a little confused, but still left. He had a bad thought in his heart. He always felt that the patriarch's words just now and asking Kong Xingxing to listen to him were like giving instructions for the funeral - ah bah bah bah.
The clan leader is in good health and was able to take the orcs to and from the mammoth territory last year.
After Zhuo Yan left, the uncle stepped forward to support his partner. The clan leader shook his head and said, "It's okay." The uncle's eyes were full of worry, and the clan leader smiled, "My health is fine now, but I don't worry about the tribe. First Tell Zhuo Yan so that I can feel at ease."
"Actually, I'm very happy, Asu, the orcs in the tribe are a bit lacking. I originally wanted to practice electricity, but electricity is not good, and Maha doesn't accept him, let alone the older ones. "
Although Zhuo Yan is a sub-orc, you see, the sub-orcs believe him, even the Chunji people who have not dealt with him before will listen to his words and work. Ma Ha has a bad temper, but Zhuo Yan has a bad temper." Ma Ha listens to whatever he says. "
Uncle Asu said, "Then you still want the Peacock Tribe to listen to Zhuo Yan."
"That's because I'm still alive, Asu."
Asu heard this and held his partner's hand tightly. He understood that because his partner was still alive, his partner supported Zhuo Yan. If his partner didn't - he would feel so uncomfortable. The clan leader felt it. Asu didn't want him to die, but...
"I won't say it anymore. My health is really good now. I haven't had a headache for a long time."
Asu hummed, "You should rest more, Zhuo Yan is here. " "You sit here and Zhuo Yan takes care of things. Now we leopard people have a market, which is very lively."
"Yes, I didn't dare to think that we leopard people also have a market."
"The peacock people weave very beautifully ." , Asu, when Zhuo Yan said the ramie is ready this fall, you can put it on."
Asu said with a smile.
Not long after Zhuo Yan went out, he saw Shitou and Qiao standing at the intersection outside the square waiting for him. Kong Xingxing was already tired of Shitou. Shitou saw him coming out and pushed Kong Xingxing away. He happily ran over and said, "I heard Xingxing say Yes, the clan leader said they can all stay."
"Yes." Zhuo Yan mentioned the place, which is the back of the short hill where they often go, where they find barbecue, chicken, and chestnuts.
Shitou was very happy to hear this.
Joe was a little worried and said, "It's too outside there, and there will be danger."
"I'm not afraid. I can make the door thicker and move some big rocks to block the entrance." Shitou said.
Zhuo Yan: "Shitou, please make your hole closer to me. There is a tide of beasts, and there are me and A-Yin."
"Then if I dig a hole, I will hit it as close to the stone as possible." Aman suddenly spoke up.
Several people looked at each other, and Xiao Xian chuckled, "Aman, you know that Dan will come in exchange for salt this time."
"I'm sure he's here -"
"Oh, oh, brother Zhuo Yan, I forgot, Aman said that he regretted it. He should have learned from Stone and mated with Da En, so that it would not be a loss. "Xiao Xian said quickly.
Aman: ...his face turned red, and he said stubbornly: "I didn't say that I must be drilling holes with Dan over there, I can also be with others."
"Who? Do you want to be with Maha?" Zhuo Yan asked casually road.
Maha's eyes lit up in the distance for a moment, and he looked over. There were many sub-orcs standing over there, but Zhuo Yan, Qiao, and Shitou all had partners, but Xiao Xian Aman did not. Although Xiao Xian was a little skinny, but It's not bad. Aman's words are the best. He has great strength and his skin is not that white. How good.
"Even if I endure the estrus period every spring, I still won't pierce the hole with my partner!" Aman said loudly.
Maha being picked up:...
The four peacocks were curious, "Is Maha in your tribe an orc?", "What's wrong with him? Is he ugly?", "Or is he still missing arms and legs?"
Maha collapsed. He looked over with an open face and continued to eavesdrop.
"No, he is an orc in our tribe who is very strong, tall and good at hunting. He can bring back a lot of prey every time." Zhuo Yan told the truth.
Maha's eyes lit up again. Although Zhuo Yan was weak, he still had a partner. Did he like him?
The four peacocks became interested.
"But Maha doesn't like to be clean, and his hole is dirty."
"He doesn't like to clean either. He speaks in a rush when he opens his mouth."
"He still looks down on the sub-orcs and thinks we are weak. We are weak, but We also make pottery, he drinks water from the pots, and he eats the potatoes we grow, huh."
"He wants to mate with the orcs, but he is so gibberish that he doesn't even listen to what the orcs say, and we are not the same. If you are blind, you will be beaten eight times a day by him."
The eyes of the four peacocks were widened, and Kong Huo asked: "Maha still beats the sub-orcs?" He knew that orcs and feathered people are different. There are both male and female feathered men who are powerful, while some are not that powerful, but sub-orcs are less powerful than orcs.
"..." Aman was stopped by the question and looked at the others, "A Mahataya orc?"
Zhuo Yan has never seen it, "I heard what you said, but I haven't seen it."
"I also heard from other orcs. That's what I said." Aman scratched his head. Xiao Xian shook his head and said he had never seen him before. "I used to be afraid of Ma Ha. I wanted to run far away when I saw him. I don't know."
Qiao didn't know either.
And Ma Ha, who had been listening in the corner, couldn't help it anymore, and came over angrily with his fists clenched. Xiao Xian was so frightened that he hid behind Brother Zhuo Yan. A Man also froze, and Qiao was a little embarrassed. After all, there had just been a big blow behind him. Say bad things about Maha.
Zhuo Yan: ...
"We don't know whether you hit the sub-orcs. If you didn't, we won't talk about it anymore and apologize to you." Zhuo Yan looked calm but was actually a little scared.
Maha was as angry as a hill, puffing out his breath, and opened his mouth to say: "No!" But he remembered something, took a step back, covered his mouth, and said in a low voice: "I have never beaten a sub-orc, I just If you don't beat the orcs, you are so weak, I will beat you." He snorted disdainfully.
"I'm sorry Ma Ha, we misunderstood. We won't talk nonsense anymore." Zhuo Yan finished speaking, and while Ma Ha was still, he quickly ran away with his people.
Maha really looks like a mountain, and the roaring mountain is really scary.
Several people jogged and stopped and walked slowly when they were more than ten meters away. Zhuo Yan whispered: "We should not speak ill of people behind their backs in the future."
"Brother Zhuo Yan, how about gossiping?" Xiao Xian felt that he had lost his fun.
"...That's right. You can tell some truths and forget about spreading rumors."
"What are rumors?"
"It's just things we guess about that didn't happen. It's still a bad thing. That's the matter of the Mahataya Beastmen. If we keep talking about it, He kept saying that other people might really think that Maha had beaten the orcs."
Aman nodded. This was what he heard from others. Thinking about it, Zhuo Yan was right. It was clear that Maha had never beaten them. Everyone thought that Maha had been beaten, so Maha was indeed quite pitiful.
Hating Maha and spreading rumors about Maha are two different things.
Kong Huo and others looked back, and Kong Lu said: "He is still looking at us."
"This orc speaks more rudely than us. He obviously wants to explain to you, but he also looks down on you with contempt and snorted. ."
The peacocks chirped, "He's really tall." "Those arms are thicker than our legs." "He looks so strong." "
By the way, speaking of digging holes, clan leader, do you want us to dig holes?" Kong Lu asked seriously.
They have all seen the cave where the orcs live. It is so big. Do they need to dig it?
Shitou patted his chest and said he could dig it. Zhuo Yan and Aman Qiao both said they would help. Xiao Xian said he had a second brother and told Xiao Yue not to be afraid.
"Find a location first and dig the hole early while the weather is not hot. How will you five live?" Zhuo Yan asked.
Stones and holes, stars and egg cubs must be a hole.
Kong Xingxing immediately said: "The five of them have a hole, and Shitou and I have a hole." Maybe he saw the small look in his brother's eyes, and he softened slightly and said, "You can get closer." Then he turned to look at Shitou, "Is that okay? Of course Shitou
agreed. He likes Xingxing, and he also likes Xingxing's brother and his tribe. "It's good to live close. There will be a beast tide here in winter. It will be safer for everyone to stay close."
Kong Yue was very happy and said yes, yes. Kong Huo and the other four never thought about living together with Kong Xingxing. They used to live separately in the mountains. Living with Kong Xingxing would mean they would be scolded every day, so forget it.
When Zhuo Yan led everyone to the mountain, everyone stood at the foot of the mountain. Zhuo Yan raised his neck and looked, "You decide."
The four peacocks who were chirping and happy for Anjia along the way:... were silent.
"Here, here, are we good at digging with our hands?", "There is a tree here, although it is smaller, but do we need to dig a hole here?", "It's not one hole, we have to dig two holes."
"Don't be afraid. ." Aman said.
Shitou nodded, looked at the position, and said to Xingxing: "It can't be too low. It's best to have a small slope in front, just like Zhuo Yan's house. We have a lot of snow in winter, so it's best to have open space in front."
" Let's go up and take a look." Shitou said.
Kong Xingxing immediately agreed, and the other four stared at Kong Xingxing with wide eyes, "You are really not tired." Kong Yue was very obedient and followed her brother eagerly.
"Xingxing, be careful, go from here, there is a path we have stepped on." Shitou led the way and took out a bone knife from his backpack. If he encountered any horizontal branches, he would chop them down to make it easier for Xingxing to walk.
Zhuo Yan and the others watched in awe from behind.
Qiao smiled and said, "Shitou really likes Boss Kong."
"That's it." Aman also sighed.
Xiao Xian: "Have you noticed that Boss Kong's head is raised high?"
You're so proud.
Finally, the stone was positioned and we climbed all the way. The four peacocks chirped and gave a lot of random suggestions - none of them were useful. It still depends on the experience of the leopard man when making holes. The location of the stone is very good. It is about the same height as Zhuo Yan's cave. It is slightly in the col. The light may not be very good, but it is relatively safe. In addition, in winter, this location is better protected from wind and snow.
For two holes without an orc, safety and warmth are available, but some light is sacrificed.
Shitou feels sorry for the stars and feels that they can't get any sunshine.
Kong Xingxing raised his neck and said, "I hate being in the sun the most. It will tan my skin."
Kong Yue didn't dare to say a word when his brother said nonsense. His brother would not darken no matter how he was exposed to the sun. Kong Huo and the other two didn't dare to speak out, fearing that Kong Xingxing would hit them.
"...Shitou, I made glass before. In fact, I think that when I have more free time, I can give you a platform in front of you, choose a place with better light, and make a glass room." Zhuo Yan said.
Shitou was shocked, "Is it okay? Zhuo Yan?"
"Yes." Zhuo Yan nodded, "Before the ramie harvest, I want to make a loom. This machine is very delicate. I haven't made it for a long time. I have to think about it. There may only be one. When the time comes, Boss Kong and his tribe will do this together. Weaving is very hard on the eyes and requires a place with a good light source. If it is exposed to direct sunlight, it will be too hot and will hurt the eyes. The main reason is that there is no room in the kiln. "
In the autumn, the kiln is close to the water source, and ramie has to be soaked, spun and dried. And this year, a piece of land will be compacted, and when the millet is ripe, it will be dried and threshed.
There are really a lot of things to be busy with this year. Zhuo Yan planned to go back and write down the curriculum on the wall for him, so don't forget it in a hurry.
After that, it was just a matter of getting started and digging holes first.
The back mountain is in the shape of a col. Boss Shitou Kong's cave is on one side, and the Five-person Cave is on the other side, forming a curved platform. There is a lack of sunlight on both sides, and it either has good lighting in the morning or afternoon.
The middle curvature platform has good sunlight, but not too much because it is blocked by trees.
Shitou plans to build a stove on that platform, a double stove like Zhuo Yan's house, and build a shed where everyone can eat together in the future. He can also dig a small hole next to it and put firewood, potatoes, and other food.
Everyone started digging holes.
A Yin, A Da, A Tou and Hui all came to help, and Shitou's grandmother took her friends with her. However, because the lion tribe came to exchange for salt, after digging for a day, A Yin and the four of them led the team to the mammoth territory to fetch it. Salt mud.
"It's okay, we can dig slowly." Shitou said.
Zhuo Yan is also very busy. The first batch of salt mud has been retrieved, and he wants to watch it in the kiln. In fact, everyone can cook salt, but I don't know why someone has to be 'in charge', otherwise there will be no order and chaos, Qiao I also came down with him to help.
On the third day, Xiao Xian came to him looking like he was gossiping.
"What's wrong? Is there any progress in digging the stone hole?" Zhuo Yan asked.
Shitou has been very busy recently. He has to dig holes and has to take his younger brothers and sisters with him. Because Kong Xingxing carries the egg with him, Dayun, Shitou and Xiaoyun are three cute people who are touching the egg. But the egg is not there, so they all rush here to ask for it. Play with Danzai.
So Shitou is very busy here, and cooking is just a matter of one bite of barbecue. If Zhuo Yan is ready, send some over. Anyway, everyone will help each other through this tense time.
"No." Xiao Xian said mysteriously, "Brother Zhuo Yan, guess
what. " Zhuo Yan looked at Xiao Xian's expression and guessed in an outrageous direction: "Has the egg hatched?" It didn't look like it. If it hatched, Xiao Xian would scream first.
"So Dayun turned into an orc?"
"Tell me, I really can't guess."
Zhuo Yan admitted defeat.
Xiao Xian's eyes were shining, "Maha came to dig a hole today."
"!!! I'm going!" Zhuo Yan was really shocked, "Real or fake?"
Xiao Xian looked at Brother Zhuo Yan's expression , the Riddler felt a sense of accomplishment and nodded repeatedly, "I was very scared when I saw it. I thought Mahar was coming to trouble us. Who asked us to spread rumors about him last time." Showing off the newly learned words, "Kong Huo said it again "He called it."
"Kong Huo?" Zhuo Yan was really stunned. "Wait a minute. I'll go over with you to see the stone digging." He almost said it.
Zhuo Yan first explained to Qiao, A Bai, and Cong Lu. Xia Shu studied here with the lion man and sub-orcs and their cubs. The cubs were playing by the river, as well as the leopard man's cub. Lin Rong brought out a small plate of salt.
When he and Xiao Xian were about to arrive, they heard Kong Huo and four others holding the horse as if they were talking about cross talk.
"...You are such a nice person. You look very fierce. I didn't expect you to be so easy to talk to."
"Yes, we have misunderstood you before."
"You are so strong."
"We from the Peacock Tribe are not as strong as you orcs . Big, I was dumbfounded when I saw digging holes before. The first thing that came to my mind was you, Maha. You are so tall and powerful, you must be able to dig holes easily.
" It's because you're too tall and powerful."
Maha brought his own stone knife tool and rolled his arms, his muscles bulging, clicking and digging. The four peacocks next to him were blowing rainbow farts, which made Maha stronger.
"Thank you for your hard work.", "Hey, you are so strong.", "The arms are thicker than our legs.", "Do you want to take a rest? Let's do it? Don't be too tired."
Maha waved his hand, " No need." He showed his white teeth and continued to dig with his arms, "Stay away so that the dirt doesn't hit you." "
You are so careful." "You are so kind.
...
So Maha is eating rainbow farts?
He really doesn't like Ma Ha very much, because he is very chauvinistic, which is not called beastmanism here, very straightforward, and has a bad temper, but now...
Maha is really good at work.
Zhuo Yan gestured and took a few steps back with Xiao Xian, "I think Kong Huo's big hole should be dug first." Maha's arms were almost turning into afterimages.
Xiao Xian nodded continuously, "They are not afraid of Maha."
"...I think Maha is afraid of them." Zhuo Yan said.
Xiao Xian: "Huh?" How could Maha be afraid of Kong Huo and the others? Peacock and the others couldn't beat Maha.
Zhuo Yan touched Xiao Xian's head and taught Xiao Xian, "In this world, strength is very important, but sometimes the brain also needs to be flexible. Do you think Kong Huo and the others praise him for working hard for them?" "
Yes. "Xiao Xian understands. It seems that he will learn from Peacock in the future.
Zhuo Yan knew what Xiao Xian was thinking at a glance, "Kong Huo and the other four are not that easy to learn. Think about it, if Maha figured it out later, the four of them were praising him just to let him dig holes. If he was angry, Come to the door."
"You want to beat them?" Xiao Xian whispered in fear.
Zhuo Yan said with certainty: "The four of them will definitely coax him around again, but you can't do it. You can't coax him alone."
"Oh, right~" Xiao Xian originally thought that Brother Zhuo Yan was looking down on him, so he said He is not as good as Kong Huo, but after listening to it, Brother Zhuo Yan is right, he is alone, and it is really difficult to coax anyone.
Zhuo Yan suppressed Xiao Xian's eagerness to try green tea with a few words. Not everyone can be a good little green tea, but Xiao Xian is innocent, cute, silly and sweet.
Throughout the spring, the Leopard Man tribe started working again within a few days of their estrus period. The Lion Man orcs went to and from the mammoth territory to fetch salt mud. The Lion Man orcs learned from the Leopard Man orcs over and over again, and finally completed the work independently. Salt, seeing the fine white salt boiled in the stone pot, every lion man had an excited and proud smile on his face.
When the lions left, in addition to the prepared white salt, each lion also carried salt mud on its back.
Of course, after staying in the Leopard Man tribe for more than ten days, half of the prey hunted by the lion men were given to the leopard men. The leopard men did not go out hunting much these days. The orcs patrolled and took the lion men to the mammoth territory, waiting for the lion men to leave. .
The sound of bang bang bang in the tribal square.
Everyone gathered at the tribe. The Peacock Six is ââno exception.
There are many things placed on the square, including skins, white bones, dried herbs, etc. Especially the skins are piled up like a hill.
"This is what the other three orc tribes brought last year, as well as what the Lion Tribe brought for salt this year."
"Last year, some were given to each cave, and there were many left in the big cave. This year, the Lion Tribe brought a lot of things, especially leathers, and also There are the bones of Brachysaurus. "
The bones of Brachysaurus are extremely hard and are best used for making bone knives. They need a little bit of sharpening, but the sharpened bone knives can be used for a long time, and now there is a large bundle of bones here.
"Today, every cave was given something, skins, bones, and medicine powder. The three tribes came to exchange for salt. It was the orcs in the tribe who taught them how to make salt. It was the orcs who took the three tribes to the mammoth territory to get salt. Thank you for your hard work during this time. "
Everyone is very happy. It is the happiest time to receive food and stuff. I have received affirmation for my hard work during this time.
"One more thing. Six members of the Peacock clan were bullied by the Eagle Man and the Eagle Man. They came to our tribe to seek refuge. They were rowed to a small back mountain to dig holes for them. Of course, everyone can rest assured that they did not eat our tribe for nothing." The clan leader looked at Zhuo Yan, "Zhuo Yan, tell me."
Zhuo Yan told the story about ramie, saying that the peacock clan can weave and make clothes. It is more wear-resistant and stronger than leaves, breathable and cooler than leather, and is suitable for hot weather in spring and autumn. There are also mung beans, peanuts and millet he brought back. These are the food of the Yu people. The peacock clan is more experienced than them. They will teach us how to harvest, dry and store them.
In short, the six Kong Xingxings were given a layer of gold.
Sure enough, as soon as he said this, all the sub-orcs and orcs in the square started talking, especially the sub-orcs. Some people were quite wary before, but now they were happy, "Peacocks make beautiful clothes.", "I've been to Yuren. I remember the market was very beautiful. We couldn't afford to change it at that time." "Then we can wear beautiful clothes in the future?" "It's great to
have full stomachs . In this case, sub-orcs also love beauty and want to pursue beauty. When the orcs heard that these six peacocks were not living in their territory for free, but also had to work, they were very happy and had nothing to be unhappy about.
Among them, Maha cheered the loudest and supported.
Kong Huo smiled and said, "Maha, you are the first orc friend I met in the Leopard Man tribe. You are so kind."
"Yes, we all feel at ease having such a reliable and powerful friend like you."
"You are so kind."
"Thank you so much, Ma Ha, you are so enthusiastic."
Ma Ha smiled so hard that his face almost broke.
Xiao Xian saw everything and thought to himself, Brother Zhuo Yan was right, he couldn't say so many words of praise in one mouth. He still stopped learning.
Zhuo Yan: ...
Isn't it said that the peacock is very proud? These four feel like foxes. Zhuo Yan: Light a candle for Maha and wish you good luck.
Chapter 83:
The Werewolf Clan arrived two days in a row, but the Werewolf Clan arrived first. Perhaps because the Werewolf Clan was close, they set off later this time.
By this time the holes for the stone and the peacock clan had been dug out.
Zhuo Yan's comment: Maha's strength is indeed great.
Because there are Shitou, Shitou Ama and friends, as well as orcs like Ada Ayin in the stone cave. They go over to help when nothing happens. Of course, they also pay for the Peacock Cave, but the main force of the Peacock Cave is Mahagan. of.
Zhuo Yan admired him.
You can't move in immediately after digging out the hole. You have to cut down some trees unique to the Leopard Man Forest to dry the hole. While drying the hole, tamp down the walls of the cave. To make it more detailed, you need to dry it two or three times. Every corner and the top of the cave must be dried. It should be tamped and dried so that it will be dry after living in it, and there will be no soil in the hole and no odor.
Stone takes the peacocks to do these things.
There are still doors and furniture to make. Although it is very tiring, Shitou has a smile on his face every day, including Kong Xingxing. He is not afraid of being tired and dirty when working. He even teaches Xiaoyun Shitou to hatch eggs while he goes to work.
Zhuo Yan also got busy. The clan leader gave him the task, and he completed it well - just some reception work. The relationship between the three clans has always been harmonious, but he was afraid that some chats and inquiries would cause friction again and again, so Zhuo Yan did it for the clan members in advance. After the "induction training", I praised the tribesmen every day for their great work, carefulness, enthusiasm, intelligence, etc.
...I also learned it from the Peacock Four. Praising the clan members in large quantities has a remarkable effect.
When everyone was happy, no one was impatient when answering questions from the two tribes. Even if someone asked questions back and forth many times, the Leopard orcs were always very patient and smiling.
On the contrary, the orcs of the tiger tribe were embarrassed to scratch their heads.
"I'm really sorry. I'm scared to come here to ask you questions. I want to ask someone else."
The leopard man and sub-orc man said enthusiastically, "Don't be afraid. Last year, the people from your tiger man tribe were all orcs. They are good at hunting and doing This is not good. I am not saying that they are not good at it. I am saying that we sub-orcs can learn the weaving work quickly."
"Hahaha, they just can't do it. They teach us how to do it. This one says three layers, and that one says two layers. The clan leader is angry. I had to stare, but Dahn said it again, but something went wrong again when making it, and in the end we only filtered the salt mud once..."
The salt made from the salt mud brought back by the Khajiit tribe last year was salt soil, so we can make do with it. , Fortunately, the Leopard People gave them a lot of prepared salt, so they would not eat all the salt soil.
This time when the Tiger Tribe came, the patriarch Hawa only brought twelve orcs, while the sub-orcs brought ten.
Because the sub-orcs of the tiger tribe have learned from the orcs of their tribe, sometimes in the second teaching, some sub-orcs can't get over their ideas and subconsciously make mistakes. The leopard man is very patient and guides, and we have the above dialogue.
At night, the tiger-human sub-orcs returned to the rest area, and everyone shared barbecue, cooking and chatting.
Hawa asked how was the study today. The sub-orcs were very lively in their conversation, "The sub-orcs of the Leopard Man tribe are so nice.", "Yes, Qiao and the others taught us how to weave filters step by step.", "I have asked many times, they are really good-tempered.", "Sang What the dragons said was wrong, and it embarrassed me, but the leopard-human sub-orcs said it was not my problem. It was not my problem in the first place."
"Yes, that's right, we sub-orcs learn this very quickly, and besides The Leopard orc sub-orc Zhuo Yan was the first to learn how to make salt by drying it. "
"Yes!"
Everyone said many good things about the Leopard orc.
"But why does Dan want to go with us to make salt today?"
"What else? Haven't you noticed that Dan hasn't come back yet?"
"Ah?"
By the river, Zhuo Yan was also taking stock of today's work. The Kua Kua people said, "Everyone has worked hard today. The weather is too hot. Be careful of heat stroke. If you are not feeling well, you must go back to the cave to rest. Don't hold on. We all work under the shade of trees and under sheds. We have prepared bitter tree sap to water everyone." Don't be afraid of hardship."
Everyone couldn't help laughing when they heard this.
Zhuo Yan also smiled helplessly. He was afraid that everyone would suffer from heat stroke. The stove in the kiln kept boiling hot water and letting it cool down until it boiled. There were two large clay pots with bitter tree sap mixed in - the diluted version. The result was a large pot of water. Almost no one moved.
When everyone was hot and thirsty, they ran to the river to drink raw water, but they didn't drink the bitter tree sap.
"Miss Qiao, Xiao Xian, you take the lead in drinking." Zhuo Yan could only 'bully' his companions.
Everyone laughed, and some said: "Xiao Xian, drink more.", "Xiao Xian is still young, drink more.", "I will drink if Qiao drinks."
Xiao Xian's face wrinkled together, he didn't want to drink. Joe said okay, she would drink it tomorrow.
Everyone laughed again, and it seemed that Qiao and Xiaoxian also found it bitter. As for Aman - Aman disappeared. He was seen again when he was working in the afternoon, but he ran away as soon as the workers were collected.
Zhuo Yan couldn't find it, so after finishing his "work summary" in the afternoon, he wanted to wait for the mung beans to be cooked and then cook some mung bean soup with some sugar, so everyone would definitely like it.
When the Khajiit and Werewolf tribe arrived, the weather was very hot and they used the sun salt method. The sub-orcs of the Khajiit tribe are particularly attentive. They have to learn every step several times and confirm it repeatedly.
If Zhuo Yan hadn't reassured them in advance, the leopard man and sub-orcs would actually be impatient. After all, the weather was hot. But after hearing what Zhuo Yan said, what the tiger tribe orcs learned last year must have been messed up and taught to their sub-orcs. The orc didn't learn it accurately the first time, so he was inevitably worried, so he asked more questions.
Everyone thought it right, so we became more patient.
Near the ramie field, a brown sub-orc sat on the young tiger.
"Dane, there is no one here."
The tiger squatted half-crouched with its forelimbs, and the sub-orc on its back jumped down. The tiger did not turn into human form because his skin was still in the hands of the orcs.
"Become a human first. I have something to tell you."
"Ouch." The tiger shouted weakly and turned into a human form.
Darn is a handsome tiger-shaped boy with short curly hair, thick eyebrows, and a clean face without beard. In the early morning, before the orcs woke up, Darn sneaked to the river and started to trim his hair and beard, and rubbed his body clean. Clean, no sweat smell.
After dressing up like this, when the sub-orcs woke up and went to the river to clean up, someone discovered it and was surprised that Dan got up so early today and cleaned up so neatly.
Dan's ears turned red and he said, "Today I'm going to learn how to dry salt from the Leopard Man. I'll take you there."
In the evening, Dan took another shower.
Now that Dahn has turned into a human form, he is fresh and handsome. Aman looks straight at him, and his eyes move downwards. Dahn knows what Aman is looking at, and his ears are red. Hey, what a shame.
Aman held Da En's leather skirt and firmly refused to give it to Da En.
"Come here."
Dan had no choice but to go over. Aman walked in front and handed his back to Dan, who followed step by step. The two walked through the dense ramie field and walked all the way to the tree on a hillside.
"We used to go here when we were outing. Ramie doesn't grow here." Aman stopped and spread Dahn's leather in his hand on the grass.
Dan's eyes were confused, and the next second he saw Aman undoing the leather skirt around his waist.
"Last year, Shitou went to Yuren Market and met his partner, Boss Kong. You know that, right?"
Dan nodded, he knew, he remembered. Aman told him on the way.
Aman spread his own leather over it, thought for a moment, and sat on Dan's leather skirt. Dan didn't know where to put his eyes, and his heart was beating loudly. He seemed to understand... what Aman was going to do.
"I took a step back when I saw you guys fighting with the Yingren. Dan, I'm just scared because I've never seen such a scene. It's not because I'm afraid of you." Aman explained.
Dan smiled, "I know, I knew it last year. I know it even if you don't tell me. You won't be afraid of me."
"Then I still have to say it." Aman lay back and sunbathed in the grass for a day His skin felt a little warm, and the light and shadow fell on his skin through the shade of the trees. It was not so sunburned anymore. He lay down in a comfortable position and looked at Dan, "I have always regretted it when I came back."
Dan's face was filled with tears . It's red, but I can't look away and my heart is beating. Aman is so beautiful.
"I've been thinking about a lot of things, what to do after giving birth to cubs, thinking about this and that, but after I came back, I always regretted it. I missed you, Dan. I should have mated with you at that time."
Dan's eyes were burning . .
Aman reached out to pull Daan.
"I have also thought a lot, Aman. I thought about the life of the Leopard People. I thought about it and told our clan leader."
Aman did not expect that Dahn would come to the Leopard People.
"Both my mother and father are gone..."
Aman knew it and sat up. "I have chosen a place to dig a hole. Dahn, let's make a hole and we will give birth to some cubs. If you want to come back to you in the future, Clan, I can go back with you and the cub."
Dan smiled. Aman thought a lot and thought a lot for him. Aman who thought so much was so cute that he couldn't help but kiss him.
The two kissed under the tree and ushered in the night. It was not until very late that the tiger carried the young orc back. They shuttled through the ramie field, and the wind rustled the ramie leaves. The night wind was a bit cool as they passed by. When they were at the river -
"Aman?" Shitou stopped him.
Aman: ...got caught. But when he looked, he saw that the stone was in the river, and Boss Kong was also there, so their eyes intertwined.
"Don't tell Zhuo Yan and the others."
"You too."
The two said to each other. But Zhuo Yan and Qiao Xiaoxian knew about it the next day, and asked A Man about it. A Man got angry and said that Shi Shi had promised not to tell him, so why did he turn around and tell him, and even revealed that Shi Shi had kissed Boss Kong in the river at night.
"Ah? Did you bump into each other last night?" Xiao Xian's eyes widened.
Qiao analyzed: "Shitou's house is also very close to the river. If you want to go over there, why don't you go to Ramie Field?"
Aman looked convinced.
Zhuo Yan laughed out loud and said: "You have wronged Shitou and revealed the information about Shitou. I know it is because the tiger man and sub-orc said that Dan came back at midnight last night and took a shower for half the night because of Dan's hair. It's so weird that it's all wet."
"...That can't be with me." Aman was still talking.
Zhuo Yan was speechless, "Da En is an orc, and he takes a battle bath. If he doesn't follow you, who else can Da En follow in our tribe?"
"Okay, okay, follow me." Aman was still a little shy.
When Zhuo Yan and others saw it, they became even more gossipy. Xiao Xian jumped in front of A Man and said, "Did you mate yesterday?"
"Absolutely." Qiao said.
Zhuo Yan: ...Since he was caught badmouthing Maha, Xiao Xian now gossips about the person involved in person and is very outspoken.
In the end, Aman was embarrassed and happy at the same time and said that Da En was going to stay. If they wanted to dig a hole, they should choose it not far from Shitou's house. A Man felt relieved about his family. When his brothers were older, he could still be with Da En. Go live with the Khajiit tribe for some time and see the life of the Khajiit tribe.
"Aman, if you want to leave, will you let us go?" Xiao Xianke was reluctant to let Aman leave.
"I can't bear to leave, so Dahn must also be reluctant to leave his companions. He is willing to stay in our tribe, and I will also go to his tribe." Aman said.
Xiao Xian heard that it made sense, but he still couldn't bear it. Qiao rubbed Xiao Xian's head and said, "Aman told me to wait a few years."
"Yeah, anyway, Dahn will stay in our tribe now." Zhuo Yan said.
Xiao Xian was happy, and left him alone, now A Man is still there.
The werewolves also arrived, bringing a lot of goods. This time when learning how to dry salt, the werewolves were faster than the tigers and were very skilled. Zhuo Yan was chatting with the werewolves there about glass.
"Before last winter, we went to the northwest and saw snow deer." Zhuo Yan just started.
The werewolf sub-orc said: "What snow deer? You mean the white smelly bird with long wings like a deer?"
Zhuo Yan: ...It's so big and doesn't look like a bird.
Seeing Zhuo Yan's expression, the older sub-orc of the werewolf tribe burst into laughter and said, "We didn't like feathered people at that time, so we gave it this name. Those stinky birds or the snow deer you mentioned, they are so big They are very big, stupid and timid. They can kill themselves, but they are not edible at all. "
"Yes, the meat is smelly."
"The wings are also ugly, with many wormholes.
" Yan nodded, "My partner A Yin wants to hunt some rare prey and give it to me."
When everyone heard this, the werewolf tribe showed sympathy on their faces. They should have asked them earlier.
"Snow Deer can't use anything, but I found a transparent stone." Zhuo Yan said.
Now the faces of the werewolf and sub-orcs were even more sympathetic. They kept saying that those transparent stones looked very beautiful, but don't be deceived. They are only transparent in winter. When the weather is hot and the sun shines, they are just ordinary stones. , We used to want to go to the Feathered Market to exchange things, but luckily it turned into gray stone when we set off, otherwise it would have been terrible.
Zhuo Yan said with a smile: "I figured it out. It becomes transparent after baking."
"Huh?", "Is that so?", "Zhuo Yan, you are too smart."
Everyone thinks that the sub-orcs of the Leopard People are Zhuo Yan is so smart. They throw away the stone when it turns gray. They only scold the smelly bird and it is of no use. Even the stone where they love to stay is useless.
I never thought it could become transparent!
Zhuo Yan: "I want some more of these stones. Can I go there in the summer? Are there any dangers?"
"After the snow melted, the stones turned gray, and the snow in the snow-capped mountains turned into rivers and flowed down. The smelly The smelly birds have all gone to the mountains. The mountains there are very strange. There is snow on the top of the mountain, but there are still green grass and trees at the bottom. "
"There are some puddles inside that are warm even if it snows in the winter, but they don't taste good."
"My partner and I used to go there . I went there to play, and there wasn't any big prey. In summer, the smelly birds get even worse."
Zhuo Yan wondered if there were hot springs in the mountains.
He chatted with the werewolf tribe, talking about transparent glass, and also talked about the climate and temperature, because the two tribes are very close to each other and the snow season is long, so there is a big difference. However, the tiger tribe next to them slowed down in their work. When they heard them talking about winter, they interrupted and said, "No wonder you guys have to live in caves. There are too many snowy days and it's too cold."
"That's right."
Zhuo Yan curiously asked about the weather over there with the tiger tribe. He had also talked to the Lion Tribe before. The Lion Tribe has four distinct seasons. The snow season lasts for about one and a half months. There are also blizzards, but only one or two. The Lion Tribe moves collectively to live in large caves during the snow season. They usually set up tents because they are there. If it is humid, the tent will be breathable and the food will not get moldy.
This time the Lion Tribe also said that the temporary rest area and kiln work shed built by their tribe were very good, and they would like to do some when they go back.
Zhuo Yan knew the tree house where the Khajiit lived.
"Our snow season lasts for about two months, and the snow is very heavy and thick, but it's not cold." said the Khajiit orc.
Everyone listened attentively.
It's not that I don't believe what the tiger people say, but there are snowstorms in the two-month snow season, how can it not be cold? Zhuo Yan wondered whether the tiger people had higher freezing tolerance genes? The distance between the two races is only half a month, so there is not a huge contrast in temperature between the two races, right?
"We have a kind of tree with a very thick trunk. You can dig it out. People live inside, and it's not cold at all." "
And it's very warm in our mountains."
"The werewolves just said that there is warm water in the mountains, and we also have it." So Just interrupted.
Zhuo Yan: With envy on his face, it's no wonder that the two tribes of tiger, lion and man have developed best. The climate, environment and land area of ââthese two tribes are better than theirs.
Huo Xia Daya said that the tiger tribe has a large territory and abundant prey.
Maybe everyone is too envious, but the orcs of the tiger tribe are quite modest and said: "Our tree house is not as good as you think, it is not as big as your cave."
"It can only accommodate two people. "
"But we can find a few nearby white trees and dig them up. One for sleeping and one for eating. This will make it easier."
"We can also dig one for the cub ." "
Zhuo Yan: You all have three bedrooms and one kitchen.
He could only have a rough idea of ââthe scenery the Tiger Tribe was talking about. He couldn't help but think that it would be great if he could go there and have a look. The other two tribes were the same. He could find a chance to go there. The three tribes were now friendly and they shouldn't reject him. Maybe he could discover something. Seeds or something else.
It's just that you need to ask the clan leader about this idea first.
Then the clan leader asked the clan leaders of the other three clans on their recommendation. The lion clan had already left. Maybe they could go to the werewolf clan this year.
Everyone chatted and worked, and when night fell, everyone went back to their homes.
Zhuo Yan found the tribe leader and expressed his thoughts, explaining: "...I just want to take a look. Just like the seeds brought back from the Feathered Market, maybe some edible seeds are suitable for the growth of our tribe."
"You When do you want to go?" the patriarch asked Zhuo Yan.
Zhuo Yan had already thought about it, "Before the rainy season this year, I want to go to the Werewolf Clan. We are only going for a few days and will be back soon. Don't worry, the leader, the harvest will not be delayed."
"Luckily you said it, the Werewolf Clan will be here this year Go back early. They brought a lot of orcs with them this year. They went directly to the Mammoth Field to make salt mud and make it themselves." After the clan leader said, "I will say hello to their clan leader tomorrow. You can go there during the rainy season."
"Be safe. "Zhuo Yan."
Zhuo Yan was very happy, "Thank you, chief. I'll go with A Yin."
"It's okay to bring a few more people," the chief said.
Zhuo Yan agreed. He didn't expect the clan leader to immediately give him a positive answer. He also thought that the clan leader would ask the werewolf clan leader and agree to him after getting the affirmation. Later, he thought that the four clans were friendly and harmonious. He just went to have a look. The clan leader also knew that the werewolf clan leader would not fail Agreed.
Sure enough, on the evening of the third day, the werewolf chief found him and said with a smile: "If you come here before the rainy season, go directly into the tribe and I will say hello to the patrol."
"Thank you, the werewolf chief." Zhuo Yan thanked him.
The werewolf sub-orcs who were working that day heard what their clan leader and Zhuo Yan said, and when the clan leader left, they immediately stepped forward and surrounded Zhuo Yan.
"Zhuo Yan, are you coming to our tribe to play in the rainy season this year?"
"Then you have to come here early."
"I'll take you to eat berries, they're delicious."
The tiger man and sub-orc were still thinking, why didn't Zhuo Yan go to them? Tribal play?
Zhuo Yan happily thanked everyone for their kindness and said, "I grew up in the Leopard Man tribe. The farthest place I have been to is the Feather Man Market. I found some seeds there and saw different scenery. I I just want to go for a walk. If you have time in the future, I will go."
"I'll definitely be happy," said the tiger-man orc.
"Yes."
That night, the werewolf clan left. More than twenty orcs from the werewolf clan came, and only a few sub-orcs. They went straight to the mammoth territory and carried a lot of salt and mud. This time they went back to make their own salt.
In fact, the Leopard People have already told the location of the salt that it is okay for their tribe not to exchange things if the werewolves don't come, but the werewolves still came over and brought some things. This is the werewolf's gratitude to the leopard people.
When leaving, the clan leader sent each other off and said to the werewolf clan leader: "Our clansman Zhuo Yan and his fellow orcs asked the werewolf clan to take care of them during the rainy season. To express their gratitude, in the future the werewolf clan will come to fetch salt and mud. They don't need to bring as much goods as this year. If you need to live here, half of what you hunt is enough."
"Okay." The werewolf leader nodded and said, "You're welcome."
The
werewolf leader led the tribe away.
In the tribe of leopard men.
"Brother Zhuo Yan, are you going to the werewolf tribe?"
"What are you worried about? I'll just go there for a few days to take a look." Zhuo Yan patted Xiao Xian's head.
Xiao Xian breathed a sigh of relief. He thought that Brother Zhuo Yan was also going to the werewolf tribe with A Yin. After all, A Yin was also half a werewolf, so it would be better if he didn't. He turned around and said, "Our clan leader really cares about Brother Zhuo Yan."
Aman also nodded proudly.
On the contrary, Qiao felt that it was not that simple, "Our clan leader cares about Zhuo Yan, but it seems that not letting the werewolves deliver more goods is not purely for Zhuo Yan."
"Ah?" Xiao Xian was confused, what do you mean?
Zhuo Yan and Sister Qiao had an idea. They couldn't see the orcs of their own tribe in the distance. They were also listening, so they explained: "This year, the werewolves didn't replace the white salt we made. The orcs dug the salt mud themselves. They took it back and the orcs made it themselves, but they brought a lot of goods. This is the werewolf clan leader's gratitude to us for telling them the address of the salt." "
But if it were you, you think, you can dig the salt mud yourself. You carried it yourself and made it yourself. Although these addresses were given by the Leopard Man, will you feel comfortable if you give the Leopard Man so many goods every year or two - seven or eight years later
? As time goes by, some of the werewolves will definitely think that we leopard people are too harsh."
A sub-orc in the crowd said: "We didn't ask for it, it was the werewolves who gave it to us."
"Yes, the werewolves gave it because they were grateful to us. , but we can't waste this gratitude year after year. Then the two tribes will not be in harmony. This time the clan leader used me as an excuse to go to werewolves to dig for salt mud in the future. The friendship between the two races should be preserved. You respect me and I thank you, so that it can last forever," Zhuo Yan said.
Upon hearing this, everyone thought according to what Zhuo Yan said, and after a while, they all nodded.
"The patriarch is so smart."
"I understand what Zhuo Yan means. Speaking of which, Ahua helped my friend before. Of course we are grateful to Ahua, but Ahua comes to our cave to eat meat every day and asks me to barbecue for him. After a long time, I really " It
's not that we are not grateful to Ahua, but my partner will try his best to help Ahua after he gave her prey..."
Everyone in the clan knows about this conflict, and now it's the werewolf Zhuo Yan said. The relationship with their clan was immediately clear.
Indeed.
"Actually, we leopard people are not short of skin. The werewolf tribe is doing well, and we leopard men are also doing well. There is no difference."
"That is, the orcs of our tribe are also very good at hunting."
"Yes."
Everyone later After returning to each cave, they still lamented that the clan leader was smart, and said that Zhuo Yan was also very smart and understood what the clan leader meant. Some orcs deliberately teased their friends and said: Maybe the clan leader didn't mean that, it was all Zhuo Yan's imagination.
Then I ate a set of small punches from my partner.
"You are talking nonsense. What Zhuo Yan said makes sense. He is very smart."
"Okay, I admit that Zhuo Yan is smart. I just want you to stop mentioning other people. This year's spring estrus period is particularly short. I think You kiss me."
"Okay, okay, I was wrong, I kissed you. After the werewolf left, only the tiger people were left. I can spend time with you in the cave tomorrow."
"That's great."
I am also grateful to the orcs and sub-orcs in this world for their direct communication. Everyone has a voice to talk about problems. After a while, there is a lot of firewood and love in the cave.
Hawa, the leader of the tiger clan, later heard what Zhuo Yan said - because he was aboveboard and did not hide anything. Hawa couldn't help but sigh: "How can the Leopard People have such smart sub-orcs."
"Chief, can we carry salt mud back and make it ourselves in the future?"
Hawa said, "Absolutely. This is what the leader of the Leopard People said to the Werewolves. , We will also say the same thing to our tiger people and the lion people."
"But we will send goods to the leopard people next year. We have more people and more food."
The orcs nodded, and the tiger people are good at this. .
Just be on par with the Lion Tribe. Hawa thought.
This year, the tiger people exchanged some white salt and also carried some salt mud back. The sub-orcs were eager to try to do it themselves - they would definitely be able to do it well. It was the orcs who failed to teach them last year.
Before the Tiger Tribe left, Hawa stopped Da En and said, "It would be good for you to stay with the Leopard Tribe and live together. If Zhuo Yan wants to come to our Tiger Tribe, you can lead the way and bring him here. Our Tiger Tribe welcomes him." "Leopard Man."
"I know the leader!" Dan was also very happy.
In the summer, the werewolves and tigers left, and the leopard tribe wanted to dry their own salt. After a few days of busy work, Dan and Aman also started digging holes. Stone's home was decorated, and they ran to the river to dry the salt. Yes, because he didn't appear much in the past, but now he does it day and night.
Zhuo Yan was afraid that Shi Shi's body couldn't bear it, so he asked Kong Xingxing to persuade him.
Kong Xingxing said: "I will accompany him."
Zhuo Yan:...
"That's what the big guy is like. If he is not allowed to contribute more, he will feel that he has failed everyone in the tribe."
Kong Xingxing is right. Zhuo Yan stopped trying to persuade her, saying that it was too hot to drink more bitter tree sap.
Shitou: "...I will work under the shed."
It means he doesn't know how to drink.
Kong Xingxing blinked and just said "big guy"
Shitou drank it all in one gulp, his whole face wrinkled up in pain. Kong Xingxing leaned over and kissed Shitou's mouth, Shitou became happy, as if he had drank a bowl of honey. .
Zhuo Yan: ...
"By the way, how is the egg cub doing?" Hasn't it hatched yet?
He had made a mistake in his judgment. He had previously thought that the shells would be able to break when the spring was hotter. Later, when the Peacock Tribe came, he said, "That's not the case. The longer they come out, the stronger and stronger their eggs will be. After they break out of the shells, they will grow longer." It will also be very fast.
Just like an orc transforms twice, a demi-orc only transforms once, so its power is not as strong as an orc who transforms twice. The time the feathered people spend in the eggshell can determine the growth rate after the egg is broken.
The longest time for the cubs of the five feathered tribes to stay in the eggshell is one year.
Kong Xingxing, as the main force in hatching eggs, said happily at this moment: "The egg cub has been able to move recently, and it should be hatched before winter. After one winter, it will be a beautiful and majestic peacock."
"Like me. It has beautiful feathers and is as strong as a big man.
"It's so beautiful. It's worthy of me and the big man's cub."
Zhuo Yan: ...starting to show off the baby again.
Chapter 84
When the weather is hottest, you can rest for a few days after drying the salt. At this time in previous years, the tribe leader led his team to the Yuren Market to exchange for salt. Since the salt was available, life in the tribe has become much easier.
After all, the journey back and forth is actually very tiring.
In the scorching heat, Zhuo Yan and A Yin went back to the cave to sleep at noon. It feels close to 40 degrees outside, but it's very cool inside the cave. I sleep on a straw mat, next to a stone bed, and the wooden door is open. From time to time, a bit of wind blows in, although the wind is also a bit hot.
But overall, I can still sleep well.
After waking up, Zhuo Yan and A Yin went to the river to wash their faces. Everyone in the tribe woke up and ran to the river to chat, fetch water, and play for a while. In the evening, everyone went back to their homes to cook.
Zhuo Yan and A Yin lived close to each other. After washing their faces when they went to the river, Qiao Ada came over. After a while, Xiao Xian and his second brother also came, and everyone was playing in the river.
"What's for dinner?"
"I made the Dudu fruit liquid for lunch, and spread out some pancakes to eat at night, as well as cold dishes." Zhuo Yan said.
Joe said happily: "I plan to do the same. The weather is too hot and I can't eat meat."
"Same."
Now every cave has some dried bacon, and the stock is not as much as in winter. Every time the hunting team comes back, they will get it. If you don't eat all the meat, pickle some and dry it in the entrance of your own cave to make dried bacon. Every household saves about twenty kilograms. There is food in the cave, which makes the sub-orc people feel safe.
"Is it time for Zhuoyan's harvest?" Lin Rong asked.
"Yes, I just finished drying salt recently. I want to rest for two days so that everyone can take it easy before harvesting." Zhuo Yan looked over and saw that the weeds and grass fields on both sides of the river have now become fields. There are only two thin rows next to the river.
Because there is a lot of greenery and the river water, it is really cool in the evening, and of course there are many mosquitoes.
"I heard you say before that we should harvest the sun before the rainy season, otherwise it will get moldy," Lin Rong said.
"Yes." Zhuo Yan saw that the other sub-orcs were gathered around. They were obviously very worried about the crops in the field. He originally wanted everyone to rest for two days, so it seems: "The ground for drying millet will be consolidated in the early morning and evening tomorrow.
" People were happy and nodded and said yes.
Everyone is really not afraid of getting tired.
"Zhuo Yan, I know you want us to rest, but you don't know that last year, after we harvested potatoes, even if my partner didn't go out hunting, I wasn't that scared. I was very scared before." "
Yes."
"I heard you say that this time millet is the same as potato. It can be used as food. It's really good."
In the past, everyone was in a state of worry for a long time. They relied on the hunting team for food. They were afraid that their relatives and partners who were out were killed or injured in hunting, and they were afraid that they would not finish the meal. , living in a state of fear - so in the past, when the hunting team brought back the prey and divided the meat, the sub-orcs would eat as much as they could, and there might be no food for the next two or three days.
Last year, they harvested a lot of potatoes, and added salt to store bacon. The living habits of the sub-orc people have changed unconsciously. In the past, they had to hold on to the meat. One day when they were full, they stopped eating.
Don't be afraid of waste, you can marinate the meat and dry it.
If you don't want to eat meat, you can eat potatoes.
Because there is a lot of food, gradually everyone eats once in the morning, once in the afternoon, and once in the evening, and their daily diet becomes regular. Therefore, everyone is more concerned about harvesting crops from the fields, especially the sub-orcs. They cannot hunt, but now they can support themselves by relying on food grown in the soil.
How nice.
"Okay, some people will consolidate the millet drying ground, and some people will harvest potatoes and peanuts first." These two are ripe, and they are buried in the ground. They need to be dug. The peanuts are easy to pull. Zhuo Yan said: "I'll get up tomorrow morning. Let's do it together." "Okay." " Great
." "I've never eaten peanuts before. I've eaten them at Yuren's, but I don't know how to make them."
of.
The sub-orcs were very curious about the crops in the fields, so Zhuo Yan said it over and over again. We were chatting anyway, "...if they are dried in the sun, they can be put into the small rattan baskets made at home, and we will burn some next year." You can put peanuts, mung beans and millet in a big clay pot. These three things can be stored for a long time if dried in the sun, at least for a winter. "
" Boil them, or grind them into powder, Dudu juice, and millet flour, just follow us. It's the same as pottery. If there's too much powder, add water. If there's too much water, add more powder. Make it into fist-sized pieces and steam them in a pot. "
Looking at the green seedlings in the ground, your eyes are straight.
Zhuo Yan thought to himself that there seemed to be no way to take a vacation and rest before the rainy season, harvesting the crops in the fields, drying them and shelling them. After finishing everything, he wanted to go to the werewolf tribe with A Yin and his friends.
When I come back I will make a loom.
I have done it before, but it has been several years and the tools here are not handy and some are polished. After the loom is finished, after a rainy season, the peanut and potato vines in the ground rot mixed with the soil and turn into fertilizer. They need to be plowed and planted again.
Potatoes, peanuts, mung beans, and millet all have a maturity period of more than three months.
The seeds here are very hardy and the soil is fertile. Modern crops require three to four months, but here they can mature in three months. The influence of climate is very different, and the only dividing line is the rainy season.
Crops cannot withstand the heavy rains during the rainy season and will rot in the ground.
"Then I'll see Zhuo Yan tomorrow."
"Great, we have something else to eat."
When Zhuo Yan and A Yin went back, they could see Boss Shitokong, Amanda En, and Peacock plus Kong. Yue was taking a dip in the back mountain river.
Seeing them, Aman shouted: "Zhuo Yan, what will your family eat later?"
"...pancakes and cold dishes." Zhuo Yan said.
He had a premonition - sure enough.
The four peacocks were chirping, asking if the cold dishes were delicious, and they ate too much meat and wanted to eat pancakes. I heard that the pancakes you made were particularly delicious, Zhuo Yan.
"Do you think I look like Maha?" Zhuo Yan shouted while standing at the crooked neck tree.
The four peacocks below: ...
Aman laughed there, laughing so hard that he couldn't stand. Da En held Aman to prevent him from falling into the river. Aman said: "Zhuoyan, I won't go there to eat."
...I am the only one in my house . The amount is for two people. Zhuo Yan nodded, looked at the people playing in the river with a smile, and said: "Shitou and Aman can make Dudu fruit pancakes, which is very convenient. You can make them slowly. If you are short of pepper, onion, and garlic, you can come to my vegetable patch."
"You guys take your time soaking."
Zhuo Yan smiled and took A Yin home for dinner. It's not that he's stingy, it's mainly because there are too many friends now. If you don't tell us in advance about this kind of large gathering, it's really hard for one person to cook. Especially recently, he has only been busy for two days without a break. Everyone should live their own lives.
Ah Yin was so happy. If he had turned into his true form, he would have been wagging his tail like crazy at this moment.
Everyone else has to cook for themselves, but my brother and he are a family!
He can eat pancakes made by his brother!
In the river.
The Four Peacocks: "I admit that Zhuo Yan of the four tribes of orcs is the smartest person.", "I admit it too.", "Why doesn't he fall for our tricks?"
"If you praise Zhuoyan, his Ayin actually praises him more." Shitou said beside him.
A Man remembered, "In the past, when Ah Yin could not transform into a human form, she would cling to Zhuo Yan, and every time she would kiss, lick, and knock her down. After transforming into a human form, she would also call her brother, brother. Zhuo Yan would do anything. "Brother is great, brother is great."
Just because A Yin does this every day, they have been together for a long time and think it is a normal thing. Now that Shitou mentioned it, A Man thought that the words of the four peacocks who praised Zhuo Yan were not as good as A Yin.
"So that's it.", "That's not our problem anymore.", "It's definitely not our problem.", "So what are you going to eat at night?"
Kong Xingxing immediately said, "You guys can cook it yourself."
Shitou smiled naively, because Xingxing He was afraid of tiring him, but cooking was not tiring, but he listened to Xingxing and didn't want to disgrace Xingxing.
"I can teach you how to make Dudu juice pancakes." Shitou said.
Kong Yue is very studious, "I can imitate Brother Shitou."
"Okay, let's do it together."
Aman heard this and said to Dan: "We don't have this in the cave. Let's eat barbecue first. When the harvest is harvested, I will give it to you . I can make potato flour, it's delicious too."
"Okay!"
Everyone went back to their own places happily.
Although the four peacocks chatter a little, they are not very lazy in fact, and they do the work they should do. They are talkative, and the same is true for Kong Xingxing. He is really merciless, but he is also soft in his heart. of.
So that evening, on the platform between the two caves, everyone was cooking, washing and fetching water, and some were going to Zhuo Yan's vegetable patch to pick some green onions -
Kong Huo said he would go, and Feidu flew over. .
"I can't transform into a beast, but it's great that you have wings. If I run over, it will take a while, but it's still fast to fly."
Kong Xingxing immediately said, "I can fly too, my wings are bigger."
" Then next time you pick up the onions," Shitou said.
Kong Xingxing's tail almost turned up, and he said yes.
In the past, the Peacock Six were in the feathered people's territory. Every time they took off, the other four feathered people would see them and laugh at them - with that funny tone, can you really fly? It's really flying. Are you tired from flying so far?
But in the orc tribe, it is not the case. When the peacock flies, it takes a piece of onion and garlic in its mouth and sends a message to someone. The orc people all praise that it is good to have wings. It is the kind of sincere praise and envy. Now the six peacocks have nothing to do and fly to the top of the mountain as they are. Take a flight and exercise.
Zhuo Yan had delicious Dudu pancakes that night. He and A-Yin ate outside the cave entrance. A-Yin moved the table and stools out, enjoying the evening breeze and watching the stars in the sky for dinner.
This is true for stones and the mouth of Oman caves.
Rare comfort.
Shitou likes his current life very much. He has a stove and a table. The peacocks are all clean and eat beautifully. The stars will chat with him. They talk about Dancai and say that the berries of a tree he likes in the mountains are ripe. I'll pick it secretly for you to eat tomorrow, don't let Kong Huo and the others hear it.
"...Okay." Shitou felt that the four Kong Huo must have heard it.
The four peacocks curled their lips and were too lazy to grab Kong Xingxing's berries.
"When the time comes, I will pick some and give them to Dayun, Xiaoyun and Xiaoshi Shitou." Kong Xingxing said.
Shitou said yes, "Xiaoyue, do you like to eat it? The berries here are a bit rusty and crispy, which is different from yours. I ate grapes when I went there last year. Zhuo Yan called them so delicious, but it's a pity that Zhuo Yan said we have winter It's too cold and the grapes may not grow into tree shape and will freeze to death."
Xiaoyue said happily, "Are they
round and big?"
"That's the black sweet fruit, it's really delicious.", "Have you collected the seeds yet?", "It's better to plant them in the mountains another day."
Shitou: "Then I'll ask Zhuo Yan, Zhuo Yan will definitely be happy."
Chapter The next day, Zhuo Yan heard Shitou talking about grape vine seeds, "I really forgot about it. It's okay. I just guessed that I wouldn't survive. Give it a try. It's like treating a dead horse like a living horse."
All the grape seeds were given to the peacock clan.
The whole Leopard family, except for the hunting team, all sub-orcs and orcs are in the fields, starting to harvest in full swing. There are also ten orcs working in a team to dry the grain. They chose the kiln factory, which is empty. The place is well paved, and bacon and bacon are dried and cooked there.
Now the grain drying field needs to be consolidated.
The orcs found a large piece of stone and took turns pushing it and compacting it. They also cut down trees and burned them on the ground, just like tamping down the cave walls. After burning, they rolled the stone with them and pressed it over and over again. The final effect was really great. Well, it was watered with water and dried in hot weather without any soil at all.
Zhuo Yan led people to make sickle beatings. This is very easy to do. The main pole is as thick as a child's arm, with a long and narrow hollow wooden board tied to the cane, or a thick cane can be wound around a few more sections. The millet is beaten repeatedly and the millet is removed. The pieces were beaten and scattered.
The millet here looks like ears of wheat, with a heavy head, larger and fuller than the millet he has harvested in modern times. The roots and leaves are not needed. This can be bundled and piled aside to dry in the sun, and can be used as firewood. There are also The rhizomes can be fed to pigs.
Zhuo Yan planned to collect them and mix them with others to feed the tooth pigs in winter.
His breeding business has been stagnant. Now that there is enough food, Zhuo Yan plans to eat all the chickens and rabbits when they have no time. Yazhu and his son can stay and raise them.
It's really disgusting, because it has become a bit emotional after being raised for too long.
Afterwards, shelling is the same old method. You have to grind it roughly with a stone roller. The dried millet shells are very brittle. After grinding, they will be peeled off in pieces. Use a dustpan to spread them, and what will fall heavily is big yellow rice. What was carried away by the wind was the shell.
Also save some seeds. This is for sure.
The patriarch and uncle all came and worked in the fields. Zhuo Yan ran around and arranged everything in place - the first day was a little chaotic and busy at the beginning, mainly because no one had seen peanuts, mung beans and millet. Once you know how to collect it, you don't have to be too meticulous - it won't break, so it will be much easier.
The potatoes are collected in different categories and piled on the edge of the fields. This is the most convenient. They dig them out and pile them on the ground. In the evening of the same day, the clan leader divides them up and each hole can be transported back the same day.
Peanuts and mung beans are planted together and harvested together. They both need to be picked. The peanuts and mung bean pods are separated from the leaves and rhizomes. The sub-orcs carry rattan baskets on their backs, pick a handful and throw them into the basket. After filling the basket, they transport it to Drying in the drying area.
The sun-dried peanuts and mung beans are easy to shell. You can divide them directly when the time comes. You can take them back from each hole and peel them yourself if you want to eat them.
"Zhuo Yan, is this broken?"
"The peanut shell is broken. It's okay. Try it. Is it not broken inside?"
"Can I still eat it?"
"Okay, this raw peanut is very tender now, okay. Eat."
The sub-orc who collected the peanuts pinched open the shell, and there were three red-skinned round peanuts inside. The sub-orc was a little curious, and threw one into his mouth. His eyes lit up. He liked the taste. .
"It's delicious!"
Zhuo Yan said with a smile: "If it's bitter, it means it's bad and can't be eaten. After it's dried, you can do whatever I said before."
"I know." "
What does it taste like?" "You try it.", "Can you try it?", "Yes, there are so many."
Some people who have tasted peanuts like it, and some people don't like the taste when they first eat it. But after working for a while, the peanut taste is still in their mouth for some reason, and they still want to eat it after a while. When the mung bean collector took a look, he was also curious about the taste of mung beans, so he pinched open the mung bean pods. The mung beans that rolled out were smaller than peanuts and were green. He threw them into his mouth, chewed them, and immediately spit them out. .
Not tasty.
Not as delicious as peanuts.
"Zhuo Yan said he would cook it.", "He was worried that we would faint from the sun and asked us to drink bitter tree sap, but we didn't drink it. He just said to wait until the mung beans are ripe to cook mung bean soup.", "That must be done. It tastes best when cooked. "
Millet is the most troublesome, so we cook it in a group.
Zhuo Yan saw the ripe millet in the shell. He pressed lightly with his fingers, and the shell broke open, and a large yellow rice fell out. This was much larger than the yellow rice he had bought in modern times, like a grain of rice.
Really good.
Everything grows well on this land, even the six peacocks were chirping when they saw it, saying that the millet was a little bigger and brighter than they were on the top of the mountain.
In fact, millet likes heat. In the past, it was mostly grown on the northern Loess Plateau in modern times. Now the soil here is fertile. In addition, except for the harsh winter, there is almost no transition in spring and soon it will be summer.
After half a month of rainy season, it's hot and cool summer again. He felt that autumn was not so vivid.
There are four seasons throughout the year, with three months in winter and three in spring, summer and autumn. Except for the hottest half of the month, the average temperature is between 25 degrees and 35 degrees, and it is cool in the morning and evening. It is very suitable for the growth of crops such as potatoes and millet.
There may be more shade in the mountains and it will be cooler.
Mung beans and peanuts are planted the least, and half are planted with potatoes and millet. In the evening of the same day, the potatoes will be divided. The uncle divided them last year, but this year he actually remembered who divided them first last year.
Zhuo Yan was really shocked and admired.
He saw his uncle looking at him. Zhuo Yan, a poor student who was asked to answer questions by the teacher, was sweating profusely and said: "I, I can't remember..." But soon he remembered, "Uncle, Qiao and Aman have good memories, and Cong Green has a good memory and deep interpersonal relationships, so he can let them memorize it."
The uncle was stunned for a moment, understood the meaning of Zhuo Yan's words, and laughed.
"You will make arrangements in the future."
Although Zhuo Yan can't remember this aspect clearly, Zhuo Yan knows who is suitable for what and can assign them, which will make Zhuo Yan much more relaxed. At night, the uncle said when he and the clan leader were in the cave. What Zhuo Yan said today.
"This way everyone can relax."
The patriarch smiled, "I understand you Asu, you want me to rest more, I listen to you, now I have given Zhuo Yan a lot of work to arrange."
"You want me to rest more. Rest." Asu said.
"Okay."
The orcs and sub-orcs are still strong. They harvested the potatoes in two days and divided them. They harvested the mung beans and peanuts in two days and distributed them to each house. There were four rattan baskets of potatoes in each cave - a cave meeting for more than four people. Give me an extra basket of potatoes.
Two baskets of peanuts and one basket of mung beans.
Now every household at the entrance of the cave is drying peanuts and mung bean pods. After they are dried, they can peel peanuts and mung beans in the cave when the rainy season comes. Zhuo Yan told them.
So no one was in a hurry. No one would steal the things hanging at the entrance of the cave. They went to collect the millet first.
It was dark every day, and the orcs and sub-orcs went to work in the grain drying field. The orcs in the field went to cut the millet, and then they carried it back and spread it out to dry. It can be used as firewood for cooking later.
The weather is hot and the temperature is high. After a day in the sun, the wind picks up in the evening, which is perfect for shelling the millet seeds.
Everyone has their own division of labor. The shelling is done by the orcs. The big rolling stones that were used to pound the ground now come in handy. The stones are rolled over the millet. The orcs sweep it into the dustpan with a broom and start to winnow the millet.
In the end, the dustpan was filled with yellow rice the size of rice grains.
In each cave, baskets are divided first, so that no space is taken up in the drying field. There was a lot of millet in the field, so I divided it first in the first pass... The millet was harvested and dried in the sun for seven days. Six rattan baskets of millet were divided into each hole. In the end, because there were too many, the shelled millet was shipped. In the cave, they were reluctant to pile them in the corner for fear of getting dirty and spoiling. Everyone said that if they didn't dry the shells in the sun, they would take them back and pile them in the cave, and they would shell them themselves when eating.
That's all.
Zhuo Yan did not expect that the harvest yield would be so high.
After finishing the work, there are still ten days left before the rainy season. Zhuo Yan planned to repair the food in the cave, and then set off to the werewolf tribe. This time he and A Yin, Amanda En, Qiao Ada and A Hui set out.
Xiao Xian and Ah Tou refused to leave and were detained by their parents to work. Xiao Xian said secretly: "Actually, my parents want my second brother to get married soon, and don't want him to run out to play every day. It's really disgusting."
"The weather is so sunny, and then it's the rainy season. It's fine for you to be in the cave. "Zhuo Yan comforted him, Xiao Xian definitely wanted to go play with the werewolves, "Just think about it, when it rains heavily, you will be soaked from beginning to end."
When Xiao Xian thought about the rainy season, his face immediately dropped, and he still didn't go.
He hates the rainy season.
"Everyone has been saying recently that there is too much food and we can still put it away, but we have to harvest another crop in the fall. How will we put it away then," said Qiao.
Zhuo Yan has also heard these words, but don't take them seriously, thinking that the tribesmen are really distressed. Everyone has smiles on their faces when they say these words. This is Versailles. Zhuo Yan is very happy that everyone can have sweet troubles.
"Yes, my father and mother said that the hole for storing food in Shitou's mother's house was very good. She asked my second brother not to run around. Recently, our family also had to dig a small hole for storing food."
Zhuo Yan thought for a moment, His family won't pay for it, and there are not many people in the cave so I can leave it down.
If you can't put it down and take up space, it's all because you have children. Like Joe and Ada, just like them, there is no need to dig holes for the time being.
"Zhuo Yan, Zhuo Yan."
Someone called Zhuo Yan down the slope.
Zhuo Yan responded, and Ah Yin went to see them and told his brother that they were Ah Bai and several sub-orcs.
"What's wrong? Come up here."
Everyone came up and explained their purpose. They didn't know how to make millet. They said they could, but they didn't do it well.
"I made yellow rice soup last night. The soup was a bit thick. It tasted good after cooling down.", "I also followed Zhuo Yan's instructions and peeled some mung beans and put them in. I didn't put in enough yellow rice. I woke up in the middle of the night and drank it. It's very good." "I must have made a mistake. I put meat in it. It tastes bad." "Shouldn't it be meat?"
"Zhuo Yan, Yuren Market's millet. " Zi Tuan, how do you make this? "
Nowadays, people mostly cook soup, yellow rice porridge, yellow rice and mung bean porridge, and some 'creative' dishes. Yellow rice soup is added with barbecued meat, potatoes, wild vegetables, and peppercorns...
So that evening, Zhuo Yan invited the Peacock Clan to make millet in the small stove of the kiln. The orcs rushed to tell each other. In the evening, after dusk, Zhuo Yan and the Peacock Clan began to cook delicious food.
"Peanuts can be dried and then crushed into small powder." Zhuo Yan said and handed it to Ah Yin to crush the peanuts.
Dried peanuts have a fragrant aroma.
Kong Xingxing is not good at cooking, but Kong Yue is good at cooking. He is making millet dumplings stuffed with mung beans. He first mashes the yellow rice into powder, then boils the mung beans. Kong Huo and others pound the mung beans into puree, and add water to the yellow rice flour. The yellow dough, this time it is a round dough bun, is small, and is made into a depression with your thumb. The mung bean puree just mashed is put into the depression, and steamed in a clay pot.
Zhuo Yan makes yellow rice and sprinkles dried peanuts on top.
"Wow, Kong Yue's hands are so dexterous.", "The rice dumplings he made are so beautiful.", "It's so fun to take a small bite.", "Zhuo Yan's roasted peanuts also have to blow off the peanut skin, so that "It's delicious." "It smells so good."
The orcs who insisted that they didn't like eating these finally came to watch.
It smells really good.
Zhuo Yan mixed the roasted crushed peanuts and mung bean paste with oil and kneaded it into a ball, dipped it in cold water, and began to roll the dried Dudu fruit powder. He followed the Lantern Festival method, rolling the Lantern Festival, and finally rolled it into a round shape, with a small Ball, boil the water in the pot, and cook a pot of primitive world orc version of Lantern Festival.
Even though there is no sugar, it is really delicious.
The food has its own aroma. The Dudu fruit powder is sticky and elastic, a bit like glutinous rice balls. The peanuts and mung beans inside have their own flavors, plus a little oily fragrance. Zhuo Yan gave everyone one piece, and it was not salty at all. It was too hot, so I took it in my hand and nibbled it slowly. My eyes lit up after taking one bite.
"Wow, it's delicious!"
"This is really delicious."
"It turns out that Dudu fruit can be dried into powder."
"Peanuts and mung beans are so delicious."
Kong Yue's millet dumplings with mung bean filling are also very popular. The sub-orcs praised and praised again and again, but they still didn't understand. If they invited Kong Yue and the others, they could go to their cave and teach them.
"I, can we go?"
"Yes! You were really good at kneading the dumplings just now." The orc man said sincerely.
Kong Yue was happy, her face flushed, and she agreed.
"Give me a bite, do you have any more?", "No, didn't you say you don't like the food eaten by sub-orcs?", "That oil is made from prey, and it doesn't count as all sub-orcs can do it. You can eat it.", "Just be brave, I'll cook it for you when you go back, I've learned it.", "Hey, you're so kind."
...
It was dark this evening, and all the orcs and sub-orcs from the Leopard Tribe were here in the kiln. Looking at the food, chatting, and unlocked many ways to eat millet, peanuts, and mung beans. The orcs were very happy, because their orc partners liked to eat it, and they could also eat other foods besides barbecue.
Don't tell me, the millet is really good.
Peanuts are also delicious. I didn't try the mung bean stuffed rice dumplings, but they should taste good. Zhuo Yan also said that it would be sweeter with honey - what does this taste like?
Chapter 85
Recently, the orcs were cutting grass by the river. There were also orcs who carried the orcs to the forest to find soft and thin vines. They probably smoothed them, soaked them in water, and dried them in the shade. The rainy season will come in a few days, so they can be taken to the forest. I was doing weaving work in the cave and collected a lot of food this year, but I lacked rattan baskets and baskets.
All the caves are busy with this.
Zhuo Yan is going on a long trip with his friends. He has a dinner party with his friends that day. Shitou cannot go, while Xiao Xian is worried about his family. The most important thing is that A Tou has a 'blind date' with a sub-orc.
They went to the stone for a party.
The entrance to the stone cave is much cooler because of the lack of light and sunshine, making it a summer resort. The stone cave has been dug for a long time. Everyone has been busy before, but now that we come here, it has changed a lot.
There is a large platform at the door, with some onions and garlic planted on one side, and some beautiful blue flowers against the wall. There is a shed set up over the stove in the middle, a long table and stools, and some small benches on the ground. A wooden board was laid out as a platform, and a straw mat was spread on it. There were also some scattered and half-knitted work on the straw mat.
Usually the six Stone Peacocks eat and have fun here.
The stone cave is large with two small wooden doors. Because they don't have orcs and don't need beasts to enter and exit, the entrance is smaller and leaves a 'doorway', which is safer. The doorway can also be piled with stones in the future.
Inside, there are shelves and a small table with good light near the opening. There are flowers, berries and leaves in clay pots on the table. The very dark side is a bed of stones and stars.
They also have a wooden bed.
Shitou said it was uncomfortable for Xingxing to sleep on a stone bed, so he made a wooden bed out of wooden boards.
The Peacock Cave is bigger than here in Shitou because Maha dug it out and the top is very open. The five peacocks all sleep on wooden beds. They are not used to stone beds, which are too cold and hard. The wooden beds are all about the same size, about 1.3 meters wide, and are placed against the wall - the light is relatively dim.
Make an arc.
The well-lit entrance is filled with tables and shelves.
"We still like to work outside." Kong Yue said.
"We use the hole on the stove side to put food. When winter comes, we will move some into their own holes. We usually put them like this first. The hole will be clean and there is no smell of food." Shitou said.
Zhuo Yan said it was very good, "Your stove and kitchen are like a small studio."
"What studio?"
"It's where most of the activities are done during the day, including working, eating, and eating."
Shitou nodded. Others said: "The light outside is good without being exposed to the sun.", "It's very cool here at night.", "There are no mosquitoes if you light the grass."
There is a kind of grass in the Leopard Man tribe, and when burned it has the same effect as mosquito coils. In the past, when several ethnic groups came to exchange for salt, they would also light a cluster to repel mosquitoes.
The only bad thing is that the rainy season is coming soon, and the wooden boards of the table here need to be put back into the holes, otherwise they will easily get wet and moldy.
Zhuo Yan thought, this platform is very big, it would be no problem to build a glass house. When he comes back from the wolf clan, he will bring more, but he won't mention it now.
At noon, they each brought food and showed off their talents. Zhuo Yan steamed yellow rice and peanut rice, asked A Yin to kill all the chickens and rabbits at home, cleaned them up by the river, and brought them over to cook. A Man Xiaoxian made hand-rolled flour. , Joe brought some Dudu fruits - almost all of them were gone in the caves this season.
Everyone is still very rare about Dudu fruit.
"I brought the rest here. If you can't finish it, you can dry it in the sun and roll some peanut balls." Joe said.
Shitou was so happy.
The peanut balls Zhuo Yan made last time were Yuanxiao balls. Because there were a few, each person only had one to eat. After eating, I still think about it when I come back. Shitou remembered that Xingxing and Xiaoyue liked it very much, and probably Kong Huo and the other four also liked it.
Very good.
He'll do it tomorrow.
There were many people at noon that day, and there were a lot of vegetables and meats. We ate a lot and chatted until the evening. When the sun went down, we sat on the platform to watch the sunset.
"It looks different from where I live," Zhuo Yan said. There are some trees here in Shitou, and the scenery is a bit green. It is very beautiful under the setting sun.
There is only a crooked-neck tree in front of his house.
"I like it too." Shitou said. Because Xingxing is not an orc, he can only choose this place to dig holes. The sunshine is not very good, so he feels wronged, but Shitou likes his new home very much and thinks everything is beautiful.
Kong Xingxing heard this, raised his buttocks, let Dancub roll to the other side, and then looked into the distance -
here... it is indeed beautiful.
Happy.
Aman and Dan's homes are also nearby, but the place they chose is more open and bright, and the entrance of the cave is no different from Zhuo Yan's house. From one side, it is still facing the ramie field. Recently, Dan has been repairing the entrance of the cave when he has nothing to do. The nearby dirt road was smooth and smooth, and the big rolling stone from the grain drying field was moved and rolled back and forth several times.
As night falls, everyone goes back.
"We'll leave tomorrow. Goodbye."
"Goodbye Zhuo Yan, Qiao, and Aman." Shitou said goodbye one by one.
Xiao Xian waved his arms and said reluctantly, "Brother Zhuo Yan, you have to come back early."
"I got it."
Everyone went back to their homes. The only living things in the cave were Yazhu and his son. Zhuo Yan prepared some peanut leaves and millet rhizomes in the pig trough, chopped them up, and put them in a trough. This time they went out, the fastest was half a month, and the slowest was one. Many months.
"If you want to run away, just run away."
"If you still want to come back, then go to Shitou's house to have some food after eating."
Yazhu hummed, and the little Yazhu imitated his father's humming pattern. The older one ran as fast as he could and looked like a cheater, while the smaller one howled normally in front of its father, but wilted in front of Zhuo Yan and A Yin.
"If we come back and you two are still here, let's give you names." Zhuo Yan finally said.
In fact, you don't have to be too sad if you just go to the werewolf tribe.
It was dark the next day. Zhuo Yan was carrying a small rattan basket on his back, which contained a straw mat, a piece of soap, a handful of bubble leaves, and a small bamboo tube with a leather cover, which contained salt and dried Sichuan peppercorns. , this is salt and pepper. You will most likely eat barbecue every day outside, so having this will make it much better.
The most important thing is to wear a bamboo hat and a raincoat because it is almost the rainy season.
Ah Yin closed the cave door.
Their friends are already waiting for them below.
Ah Yin turned into a beast shape, Zhuo Yan turned over, the little toothed pig showed its head and shrank back in fear, the big toothed pig ran out, grunting, Zhuo Yan waved his hand, Ah Yin ran very fast, and with his friends They meet.
He and Ah Yin, Qiao and Ada, A Man and Da En, and Ah Hui who stuck together.
Last year I went to the Yuren Market, but Ah Hui didn't go, and I kept thinking about it for almost a whole year. Ah Yin was going out again this year, and Ah Hui was the first to raise his hand and stick to her. Ah Yin said that it would be fine if your mother agreed.
Ah Hui didn't know what to say to his grandma, but this time his grandma agreed.
Ah Tou secretly said behind his back: Ah Hui was rolling around and lazing in his grandmother's cave no matter how hard he was driven away. Unless his grandmother allowed him to go, he would have to stay on his grandmother's and father's stone bed even at night.
Zhuo Yan listened:! What a filial son.
Dutiful son Ah Hui is very happy now, his limbs are kicking and clicking with joy. A group of people set off, only Ah Hui was single. They left the tribe's territory and ran for about two days. It started to rain in the evening that day.
The rain is not very heavy, but the rainy season is here, and then it rains non-stop and pouring from time to time. A few people began to look for a place. If there were woods, they went into the woods, turned into human shapes, and hid under a raincoat with their friends.
Ah Hui:? ? ? ah?
"Didn't you bring your coir raincoat? I told you." Zhuo Yan asked.
Ah Hui scratched his head, "I'm an orc, I thought I didn't have to." He actually thought it would be troublesome for an orc to carry a rattan basket and switch back and forth between forms, so he didn't even bother carrying it.
It was Qiao who lent Ah Hui a piece of leather to protect his head.
"Thank you, I will pay it back."
Qiao responded politely.
It was difficult to walk in the following days, because the rain was really heavy. It rained from morning to night, and there was no way to avoid the rain. When they passed through the prairie, they saw that there were no trees to block them, so they went on in the rain.
But there is one advantage. The heavy rain makes them miserable, and the same goes for the prey on the grassland, which is easier to catch. Moreover, the rain washes away the smell, so there are no hyenas to snatch the food.
On this day, Zhuo Yan and his party also encountered a giraffe giving birth. The long-necked deer here can only have one pregnancy a year. The giraffe mother gives birth standing up, and the fawn falls from about two meters high. Then the mother deer will lick the dirt on the child's body and head to make the fawn stand up as soon as possible.
A Yin said: "It's okay if it rains. If it doesn't rain, the smell on the deer will be too strong and it will easily attract hyenas. At this time, the deer mother can only run away."
"Huh?" Zhuo Yan was confused. If the mother deer runs away, there will only be one fate for the fawn.
Joe was also impatient.
"So in a very short time, the deer mother will let the deer learn to stand up and run." Ada saw that Qiao felt sorry for the deer, so she comforted and said: "It rained today, they should be fine."
Aman looked at the deer mother and the deer in the distance . The little deer couldn't stand up for a long time. The deer's mother looked very anxious. She looked at them in this direction, looked at them for a while and then took a few steps back. After a while, she reacted and said, "Is that deer's mother alert?" Afraid of the rest of us."
Zhuo Yan also reacted, "I'm just saying, Mother Deer looks like she's about to give up her fawn's intention of escaping for her life, so why don't we move aside? "We've had enough to eat today, so there's no need. hunt.
"If we step back now, the deer mother will think that we are about to start hunting it, and it will lose the fawn and run away." A Yin said.
And once the mother deer runs away, even if the fawn learns to stand and run, the fawn will not survive long without the mother by its side.
So the few of them stood still while the heavy rain washed over them. Zhuo Yan felt that the rain was like beads hitting his bamboo hat. After staying there for a long time, his head was buzzing.
But the good thing is that the mother deer is always reluctant to let go of the fawn. Although she is very afraid of them, she still lingers in the same place. The fawn stumbles and finally learns to stand. Because of the heavy rain, it is difficult to run, but it finally manages to run.
As soon as the fawn learned to run, the mother deer lowered her head and nudged the fawn with her nose and muzzle, staggering, one big and one small left here in the rain. The back of the mother deer looked very anxious.
After the mother deer and her fawn disappeared, they set off again.
Zhuo Yan: You're gone now, but if you stay here, his head will be smashed by the rain.
The rain is really heavy.
But after a few people ran away, they saw a mother deer with her fawn from a distance, surrounded by several hyenas. The rain washed away the hyenas. The hyenas rushed to bite the fawn several times, but they were blocked by the mother deer, but they could see that , Mother Deer almost gave up.
Ah Yin roared, and behind him Ah Huida Enada roared one after another.
The hyena turned to look at them, and the two sides were facing each other. Ah Yin lowered his front body to the ground and let out a low roar before attacking. Zhuo Yan also lowered himself on Ah Yin's back.
Qiao and Aman followed Zhuo Yan's example. They were sub-orcs. They never thought that one day, they would sit on their partner's back, encounter a hyena, and have to fight a hyena. There was a hint of fear in their eyes, but more of a fear. Excited as it was a first time hunt and had never been like this before.
The mother deer took the opportunity to run away with her fawn, but the hyenas ignored them and turned around to chase them. Maybe they thought there were sub-orcs on the backs of these orcs, so they just barked to scare them -
"Brother, sit still."
Zhuo Yan hugged Ah Yin's neck and said nothing at all. He and Ah Yin had a tacit understanding.
He was very fast and rushed over.
How could they say that the little deer was just born, and then it rained for almost half an hour before they saw that the little deer could run away. If they turned around and let the hyenas eat it, would the rain have been in vain?
Although it is said in the grassland that the weak and the strong prey on each other, it was fate that we bumped into each other this time.
Ah Hui was the first to rush. He had no partner, so let him clear the way. After that, there was a battle in the rain on the grassland. The hyenas specifically pounced on the sub-orcs on the backs of the leopard-men and orcs. A Yin seemed to know it and pounced on them with one claw, and his claws were deadly.
...
The battle will end soon.
The mother deer and her fawn have long disappeared. Two hyenas died, and the remaining ones fled in all directions with their tails between their legs. A Yin and the others were no longer chasing them.
The rain washed away the bloody smell of the battle.
The few people left again. After running for a while, the rain began to subside. They ran very fast and the wind was cool. Aman sat on Dan's back, with a bright smile on his face under the bamboo hat.
"So this is hunting?"
Dan heard this and responded with a cry. This was just a fight. They didn't catch hyenas to eat. Hunting only counts when they catch prey.
"Ada, so that's how you hunt," said Joe.
Ada whined. Ah Yin translated, first translating what Dan said, and then what Ada said: "Ada asks you, are you not afraid? The hyena is about to catch you just now, Joe."
"No, I believe in Ada, Ada can definitely kill the hyena. ." Joe said with certainty.
Qiao and Aman were so happy that they unilaterally believed that this was a hunt. On the contrary, Dan and Ada were frightened just now. Later, the rain stopped, and several people turned into human forms to rest. The two orcs looked at Ah Yin one after another, and Ah Yin rushed the fastest.
"Aren't you afraid that your brother will get hurt?"
Everyone knows that A-yin cares about Zhuo Yan the most, but it turned out that it was A-yin who made the provocation first. In the understanding of Dan and Ada, even if the deer is eaten by a hyena, they will eat it. The grassland is like this, and they will also eat long-necked deer, but it is true that under normal circumstances they will not eat newly born calves.
Hyenas don't care about these things on the grassland. They specifically pick out cubs and animals with big bellies. These are weak prey.
"I can protect my brother, so I rushed forward." After A Yin finished speaking, he added: "My brother also wanted me to rush forward."
Zhuo Yan nodded.
"And we can't defeat anyone who can run away." Zhuo Yan said.
This time it was Ah Yin who nodded.
When Ah Hui, who considers himself a brave hunter, heard this, he immediately screamed: "Running away is not a warrior, and you will be despised by the tribe."
"We are not a hunting team. When we come out to play now, my brother's safety is the most important. If we can't beat him, of course we will run away. ." Ah Yin said seriously. My brother likes to put safety first.
If another ferocious carnivore chased the deer today, Ah Yin would only run around with his brother on his back. It was not that he was afraid, but that there was some uncertainty in the danger, so he would take his brother away.
When Aman heard this, he wrapped his arm around Dan and said, "Ayin is right. If there is a next time and there is nothing dangerous, let's hunt together?"
The hunting rules taught by the elders of the Tiger Tribe are different, such as He had to rush forward bravely, and he had to have the wisdom to think about how to hunt, but the only thing he didn't do was escape, and most importantly, he definitely couldn't take the sub-orcs with him. No orcs had ever done this.
Now...
"Yes, as long as there is no danger, I can take you." Dan agreed. Aman thought, and Aman was very happy.
When we left this grassland, the rain had subsided and the grass was saturated with rain, but it was not muddy. Some of the undulating terrain would form puddles, some like small lakes, and some animals were drinking water.
The most difficult thing about traveling in the rainy season is not finding prey, but the lack of dry firewood. Several of us are often wet, and we are used to this. One day, they had a barbecue. They took advantage of the rain to stop and quickly grilled it. Zhuoyan and the others gathered firewood and peeled off the bark of the trees. The boss was very unlucky, as soon as the fire was lit, it started to rain again, and several people were soaked in the rain. Ah Yin and the orcs will eat the raw meat first, so don't waste it.
So along the way, I really found every opportunity to eat, and even picked up some plant roots to satisfy my hunger.
After running for thirteen days, we finally arrived at the werewolf tribe, and the rainy season was coming to an end.
The werewolf patrol spotted them at first sight. An orc turned into a human and shouted, "Are you Zhuo Yan from the Leopard People?"
"Yes, I am Zhuo Yan." Zhuo Yan shouted.
The werewolf brothers were very happy. "The clan leader told us that you are welcome. Come in with me." As he spoke, he turned into an orc again and ran ahead to lead the way.
Ah Yin and others followed behind, and they entered the werewolf tribe.
The Werewolf Tribe is very similar to the Leopard Man Tribe. There are mountains and water, and the mountains are also low mountains. The water flows rapidly from the top of the mountain, and the waters branch into several roads. The weeds on both sides of the branched water roads are clean, because it is only during the rainy season. The soil was wet and muddy.
At this moment, the sub-orcs and cubs of the werewolf tribe were playing in the river area. They were surprised at first when they saw the orcs coming back from the patrol. When they saw the leopards behind them, they were immediately surprised.
"It's the leopard people."
"Is Zhuo Yan here?"
"It must be."
The werewolf and sub-orcs gathered around. Zhuo Yan got off Ah Yin's back and took out Ah Yin's leather from his backpack. Ah Yin turned into a human form, took the leather and put it on. Several people are the same. Ah Hui's skin was slung around his body with vines.
"Our tribe planted mud beans last year."
"It took more than half a month to harvest them."
"We harvested a lot of mud beans."
The planting area here is larger than that of the Leopard Man.
Everyone was chatting away. Zhuo Yan thought the werewolf and sub-orc looked familiar. Qiao and Aman remembered the names one by one. The werewolf and sub-orc invited them in to have a rest and asked if they had eaten. And give them baked potatoes to eat.
"In the recent rainy season, you must have been exposed to rain for many days, right?"
Zhuo Yan said, "It's been raining all the way."
"It's so pitiful. Come on, I'll bake some mud beans for you."
Werewolves live in groups and live in groups . The ground is the main river and the mountain top, and the caves are closely connected. Because they live in groups, the entrances of the caves are open. Now there are wooden fences and wooden doors. In winter, the wooden fence door is covered with leather and the front is blocked with stones. The tribesmen all live close together inside, living together for warmth.
Now the werewolf dug a separate hole for the leopard man.
"I know you are coming, so I will accommodate you here."
Zhuo Yan was moved, "Thank you so much, we will only stay for a few days."
"It doesn't matter, you can still stay here next time you come to play."
After that, everyone settled down for the time being, and the werewolf tribe The sub-orcs brought them firewood, washed mud beans, and cubs and young sub-orcs came to help them bake. The werewolves would put some sauce on the potatoes, which were a little red in color and tasted spicy - and so on.
Zhuo Yan's eyes lit up, "What is this red thing?"
"The red spicy fruits here are everywhere in the mountains, and there are more after the rain." The werewolf sub-orc said.
"But it tastes a bit exciting."
Zhuo Yan:! ! !
As if he was starving to death, he stretched out his hand and said, "Give me a piece to try quickly. Is it chili pepper?"
The person who helped them barbecue was an older orc and a little girl. Narrow, with a pointed chin and a bit of a mixed race look, they are all delicate styles. The little girl has a lively and outgoing personality. When she heard Zhuo Yan speak, she smiled and gave Zhuo Yan a piece of nearly roasted mud beans.
"Do you call this potato?" the little girl asked.
Her father said, don't be naughty. Zhuo Yan hummed, smiled and said to the male sub-orc, "It's okay, she's just curious, not naughty."
"Father, I'm just curious," the little girl said.
Her father obviously loved his daughter, but he only touched her hair and did not educate her.
The little girl added, "What pepper are you talking about? Do the Leopard Man tribe also grow red spicy fruits?"
"What do your red spicy fruits look like?" Zhuo Yan asked, eagerly taking a bite of the red potatoes, which tasted a bit It's crispy and the noodles haven't been baked yet, but the sauce on it doesn't taste like pure chili, it's a bit spicy and astringent, just like the fruit.
A little wolf cub came over from running errands and brought a bunch of red spicy fruits.
Zhuo Yan took it, and Amanqiao also came over. The three of them studied it and asked what the red spicy fruit tasted like. Zhuo Yan directly picked one and put it in his mouth - this small fruit was about the size of a bunch of cherries and was also red.
"Don't-" the little girl and her father shouted together.
But it's too late. Zhuo Yan had chewed it into pieces, and there was a pungent and astringent taste that made him burst into tears. Ah Yin quickly brought the potatoes without any seasoning to his brother and let him take a few bites.
Aman was curious about what it tasted like, so he grabbed one and threw it into his mouth. But soon Aman, like Zhuo Yan, had a mask of pain on his face.
"This is worse than poisonous mushrooms, Zhuo Yan, bah bah."
Dann took Aman outside to find water. Aman shook his head. He wanted to see how Zhuo Yan was doing. Zhuo Yan smashed his mouth and swallowed the roasted potatoes without dressing, which diluted the excitement.
This was like the concentrated version of Sichuan peppercorns he was looking for. It was too numbing and irritating, just like the salt concentration was too high and it was bitter.
Qiao asked for a piece of roasted potatoes with sauce to try. Seeing Zhuo Yan's Man like this, she didn't dare to try the little red beans.
"Our red spicy fruit needs to be mashed and added with some water to make it taste better. It's uncomfortable to eat it alone."
"That's right."
"In winter, the weather is very cold, so we like to drink it with a bottle of water. After drinking, My whole body feels relaxed."
Zhuo Yan calmed down for a long time and said, "Good stuff." He didn't ask the werewolves why they didn't exchange this for salt, because he didn't know how to exchange onions, ginger, and garlic for salt at the Yuren Market. .
For everyone, these little bits and pieces are not even considered food - because they cannot fill their stomachs and cannot be used to exchange for salt supplies. But luckily he made a trip.
"Can you take me to see these red spicy fruits? If so, I want to take some seeds with me when I leave." Zhuo Yan said.
"There are them everywhere in our mountains. I don't know how to plant them."
The little girl ran out, and after a while a dazzling beauty came in and said, "The seeds you mentioned are the same as those of mud beans. They can be planted, right?"
"Yes." Zhuo Yan's eyes widened. Don't know where to put it.
The lady in front of me is probably in her early thirties, with some fine lines at the corners of her eyes, but she is very beautiful. Most of the werewolf people have a three-dimensional mixed-race appearance, with a small head and a small face. This lady has long gray-brown hair, a high nose bridge, and picturesque eyebrows. She is about 1.8 meters tall, with a slender waist and long legs. She wears clothes made of leaves when the weather is hot. Her breasts are big, sexy and beautiful.
Zhuo Yan tried his best to look into the other person's eyes, "Generally, the seeds are the seeds of fruits."
"The red spicy fruit has no seeds."
Zhuo Yan carefully recalled the taste just now, and concluded that it was because it was too exciting, and he couldn't taste it. There are no seeds, and the tongue is so spicy that I can't feel it.
"That means it will bloom and drop some pollen, or the fruit will grow bigger?" Zhuo Yan has never seen it and can't tell.
"If you are curious, you can go to the mountains and have a look tomorrow. I don't understand either. I can take you there."
Zhuo Yan agreed and thanked him.
When the beauty left, she looked at A Yin next to Zhuo Yan, while the father and daughter who stayed in the cave to talk to them looked at A Yin.
Something is wrong. Thinking of something, Zhuo Yan asked the little girl, "What was the name of the sub-orc just now?"
"A, A Mei."
Sure enough. Zhuo Yan looked at A Yin. A Yin blinked and smiled at his brother. Zhuo Yan: ...It seems that A Yin also guessed it.
That was Ah Yin's biological mother, a sub-orc from the werewolf tribe.
Later, the father and daughter took the wolf cub brother away and let them rest and have something to eat. The clan leader would have barbecue when he returned in the evening.
"Zhuo Yan, that Ami just now-" Aman asked hesitantly.
"You have all guessed it. What else is there to ask? A-Mei is A-Yin's biological mother."
A-Man said, "No wonder A-Yin is so beautiful."
A-Yin smiled and said thank you A-Man. Aman waved his hand and said you're welcome, and exaggeratedly said that Zhuo Yan just likes you like this. Ayin was very happy. Qiao and others also laughed. It didn't seem like it was a big deal.
In the evening, the werewolf clan leader led the team back. They ate barbecue in the square next to the mountain river. The werewolf father and daughter who took care of them in the afternoon may have told other sub-orcs that Zhuo Yan likes to eat red spicy fruits, so they added it to the barbecue. A lot of red spicy fruit brushed with chili pepper water.
Zhuo Yan: Super delicious!
Thank you so much.
But in the middle of the night, Zhuo Yan had a stomachache. He whined for a moment, and Ah Yin woke up and touched his brother's belly with his big hand. Zhuo Yan felt a little uncomfortable and whispered, "I want to go to the bathroom."
"Together."
The two ran away. When I went to the toilet, Ah Yin led the way. There were many forked roads on the mountain top here. After walking for a while, Ah Yin pulled her brother to go in the opposite direction. Zhuo Yan asked what was wrong. Ah Yin whispered: "There are orcs and sub-orcs mating over there."
Zhuo Yan: ...
He remembered that werewolves lived in groups, and the night life really meant that you had to run out alone to find a tree corner to solve the problem. It was strange... it was hard. . They won't bother.
As a result, he went around a nearby fork, and Ah Yin took him through a maze, because it was scattered here and there, and they were all doing errands - after all, the rainy season had just ended, and everyone had been holding back for a long time.
I even encountered werewolves and orcs coming out. I glanced at Zhuo Yan and A Yin, who had a kind smile on their face, "Haha, you are still young, you are not tired. There is no one there, go quickly."
Zhuo Yan . Yan repeatedly jumped between 'I have a stomachache' and 'I am mating with Ah Yin', and finally chose the latter. The former was even more embarrassing, as if...
After finding a position, Zhuo Yan no longer had a stomachache.
"..." Can't get up.
Ah Yin smiled and said, "It'll be good if the pain doesn't stop, brother."
"That time?" He put forward a test.
Ah Yin's eyes were bright and she said: "Brother, there is still a small stream of water here." He was wrong.
"Well, it's quite convenient."
The two of them looked at each other and felt like they were here. After running here for so long, should they just do as the Romans do and do it?
Chapter 86
The stream was gurgling. It rained heavily some time ago. After the rain, the weather dropped a lot. The night was very cool. Zhuo Yan and A Yin hugged and kissed by the stream for a while, but they didn't do it. The main reason was that the atmosphere was not lively. The atmosphere is more intimate.
The two of them sat on the stone slab next to the stream, took off their straw sandals, and soaked their feet in the stream. It was cool and comfortable.
There is a crescent moon above the head, the stars are scattered in all directions, and the unfamiliar environment brings the hearts of the two close people closer to each other. The surrounding grass and trees are blocking them, forming a small independent world with only two people.
"Brother, does your stomach still hurt?"
"It doesn't hurt anymore. I feel like I had a stomachache. It's fine now." Zhuo Yan felt it carefully and stretched out his hand to touch his stomach. "It's better not to be brave in the future and not eat for too long." It's spicy. If you eat too much, you won't be able to digest it. It would be terrible if you get appendicitis. "
It's not possible to operate in this world.
A Yin stretched out his hand to touch his brother's belly. Zhuo Yan took A Yin's hand and moved it around his body, "This is the heart, this is the stomach, and this is the belly. Today, there is a little pain between the stomach and the belly."
"Brother said That's right, you have to eat slowly." Ah Yin covered her brother's hand.
Zhuo Yan hummed, laughed, and rested his head on A Yin's shoulder. Ah Yin liked this so much that she lowered her head and kissed her brother on the forehead. The next time he kissed, Zhuo Yan raised his head and the two of them kissed on the mouth.
After the kiss, I felt a little embarrassed and smiled shyly.
Obviously they have done more extreme things than this, but both of them were a little shy at this moment. The atmosphere of falling in love - Zhuo Yan liked it very much.
"A Yin, A Mei is your grandma."
"I know."
"She's quite pretty."
A Yin hummed.
In the evening, the werewolf clan had a barbecue, which was considered a barbecue party to welcome them. Ami shuttled among the crowd, followed by a tall and handsome werewolf orc. From time to time, he handed Ami barbecue. Two little wolf cubs jumped around her. .
Later, the little wolf cub gave them kebabs in his mouth.
Zhuo Yan didn't pick it up, but glanced at Ah Yin, who picked it up. It turned out that the wolf cubs were born from a litter of twins. One was lively and the other was more steady. The lively one offered the meat, while the steady one watched a few steps behind. When Ah Yin took the meat, the lively little wolf cub jumped up and down happily. The little wolf cub in the back was howling.
And this scene was seen by Ami and her orc companion not far away.
At this time, there was the sound of water flowing and the chirping of insects.
"I thought about my grandmother when I was bullied." Ah Yin thought about it and said, "I never thought about Furukawa."
Zhuo Yan understood that because Ah Yin suffered so much injustice, bullying, and suffering in life when he was a child, He was hungry and had no food to eat but was driven away. His grandmother was not in the Leopard People and was a fictitious image.
At that time, Ah Yin might have thought that one day grandma would come to save me, give me food, and help smooth his hair.
Grandma is a virtual person who is Ah Yin's spiritual self-help.
But Furukawa is real. Furukawa and other sub-orcs formed a new cave, drove Ah Yin to the big cave, ignored Ah Yin, did not regard Ah Yin as his cub, and allowed Ah Yin to fend for himself.
"After I became Ah Yin, I didn't think about anyone."
"No, I miss my brother all the time."
"Zhuo Yan."
Zhuo Yan's heart skipped a beat. Ah Yin always called him brother, never his name. He couldn't help but Looking up, Ah Yin had a handsome face, the corners of his mouth were slightly upward, and he smiled very innocently and cutely. He came over and kissed him.
"I only want Zhuo Yan."
"Then I also only want A Yin." Zhuo Yan said.
Ah Yin shook his legs and kicked the stream, causing water to splash. "Brother still thinks about the tribe, millet potatoes, and Aman's friends. He thinks a lot..."
Zhuo Yan was about to explain that this is different. Ah Yin is different from these. They were all different. Who knew that Ah Yin looked over with shining eyes and said with certainty: "I know, you like me very much. I am different from them."
Zhuo Yan hummed heavily.
"You are my only companion in this world."
It was late at night and cold. A Yin's figure carried his brother on his back, and Zhuo Yan carried his straw sandals, and the two of them went back by the moonlight.
"Do you remember the way you came? I've even forgotten it." It's a strange place. He was looking for a place in a hurry just now. Zhuo Yan couldn't even remember the direction.
A Yin said: "Zhuo Yan, my nose is so sharp."
Zhuo Yan bit A Yin's head with a big bite. A Yin deliberately cried out in pain and changed his words: "Brother, brother, brother."
"Hmph, be good."
" But brother, when I called you Zhuo Yan, did you blush? You want to mate with me, I saw the warmth in your eyes."
Zhuo Yan licked A Yin's head again.
"Okay, I saw it right. It's just that you are shy, brother. When we return to the tribe, I will call you this on the stone bed..."
Zhuo Yan returned to the cave with a big red face. Dahn and the orcs were very wary. When the two came back, Dahn woke up. Seeing that it was them, he continued to sleep with Aman in his arms.
The next day, Zhuo Yan was still awake and vaguely heard A Man and Qiao talking about him.
"...Dane said that they came back very late at night."
Qiao said: "Because the werewolves live together, those with partners will go out to mate at night. We had barbecue last night. The werewolf sub-orcs told me, and... He pointed out a place to me and said we can go there because there are less people there. "
Wow! Zhuo Yan secretly went to mate with A Yin in the middle of the night."
Zhuo Yan woke up immediately but didn't dare to wake up. Come on, Mr. Qingtang, the two of them were innocent high school students falling in love last night. They just kissed and talked, and did nothing else at all!
If you didn't do it, you still have to take the blame. If you had known earlier, you might as well have done it.
Until a sub-orc came to bring them food, Zhuo Yan couldn't help pretending to be asleep - in other people's territory, it was not good to sleep in until midnight, Zhuo Yan still got up, as if he didn't see A Man jumping up and down to piss him off.
Zhuo Yan: Integrity!
"Where are Ah Yin and the others?"
"They went hunting outside." Qiao said.
Zhuo Yan and Qiao Aman were playing with the werewolf tribe that day. They worked with the sub-orcs of the werewolf tribe. After the rainy season, the sub-orcs had to plow the ground to plant potatoes. When everyone saw that they were going to the fields, they hurriedly waved their hands and said that they were not needed and shouted He took the little wolf cubs from the clan and asked them to take them to play in the mountains.
"Don't you want red spicy fruits? They are everywhere in the mountains."
"Xiao Hui and Xiao Hei, you two brothers, take them there."
"Xiao Hua, you should also go and see these."
Xiao Hua is the little girl who roasted potatoes for them yesterday.
So Zhuo Yan and the other three became the 'leaders' of the werewolf children's group. It was not like this at the beginning. There were three cubs at first, and then the team gradually grew. Suddenly there were eight cubs, all talking. We all want to be the boss, and we have to take guests from the leopard tribe to the mountains. One of them says that I am older, and the other one says that he must listen to me. I am stronger.
There was a lot of noise, no one was convinced, and there was going to be a fight.
Aman touched his chin and looked at it with gusto. Qiao was a little worried, don't get hurt. Zhuo Yan took over the position of 'referee' first, and set the rules for the game. After a few words, the eight cubs all chased the referee and asked them, what was my posture just now, was my strength great, and what did I do? The claws are very sharp.
Zhuo Yan: You can take care of everything.
Later, Zhuo Yan became the captain of the werewolf cubs.
We arranged a vanguard to explore the road, as well as scouts to see if there were mosquitoes or people nearby and whether there was any danger (of course there is no such thing, the mountain is in the werewolf tribe), mainly because of what Zhuo Yan said so vividly, The little wolf cubs were stunned for a moment, slapping their paws on the ground to show that they would complete the task.
Zhuo Yan, the king of the mountain, smiled and said: "Let's go, we have already investigated everything."
Aman and Qiao:...
from all directions, there are reports from time to time that Zhuo Yan has the most red and spicy fruits here, no, I have the most here. Finally, he said that he was anxious There was a fuss, and the little wolf cub began to howl, and the sound was very tender and cute. When the adults farming by the streams in the mountains heard the cries of the cubs, they just smiled and continued working.
I'm really afraid of danger, that's not what I call it.
"Zhuo Yan, look at me.", "No, you come to my place first, there are so many here.", "This is the right place for me."
The little wolf cub was about to start a fight.
Qiao and Aman looked at Zhuo Yan and said, "You did it, what should I do now?"
Zhuo Yan's copycat stood there and said, "I've seen it, well done, but first let me see which road is closer -"
"Mine is closer!"
"Come and take a look." Zhuo Yan.
The little wolf cub came running the same way, and the other one who had started the argument also ran over. Zhuo Yan asked the two to exchange, and finally asked: "Whose is closer? Whose is more?"
Now the two little wolf cubs scratched their ears and became angry. Gu refused to admit defeat but was still very honest about who was closer and who had more.
Zhuo Yan laughed happily.
It's really fun to play with children, especially the children here are very frank. Of course, children can be naughty when there are too many, but they can listen to what they say. Adults have said that they won't go in dangerous places. The most important thing is that these eight Children, five of them wolf cubs.
The fluffy cub looks like a puppy, with pointed ears. The most naughty thing is to raise its front paws, pull at your legs, and pounce on you as enthusiastically as a puppy.
Zhuo Yan: â¡â¡, he has his own bushi technique.
Qiao said: "They like Zhuo Yan so much that their bellies are exposed."
"Zhuo Yan just likes cubs. When Dayun was still young, Zhuo Yan would touch Dayun's head whenever he had nothing to do. Now Dayun is older. ," Aman sighed.
Zhuo Yan was surrounded by wolf cubs. After this one was touched, the other jealously stuffed his head into his hand, and the other rolled around with his belly exposed and rubbed against his feet. He was so busy that he still had to explain: " Of course, Dayun has turned into a human form and is also a big girl. How can I touch her blindly? "It's not like she's a pervert.
The furry cubs are different, they can be touched very much.
The three squatting humanoid children next to them were very envious. Zhuo Yan looked at them and finally had no choice but to pat their heads one by one. Aman was coaxing the humanoid cub and said, "He just likes furry animals. It's not that you guys are not cute."
"Zhuo Yan, when I turn into an orc, you have to touch me when I go to your leopard tribe," Xiaohua said. She felt that Zhuo Yan touching her head was different from touching Xiao Hui and Xiao Hei. Zhuo Yan also touched their bellies.
"You are an adult when you come here. I have a partner and I can't touch them blindly." Zhuo Yan did not tease the children this time, and explained to the humanoid children seriously: "When you become a humanoid, no matter it is a sub-orc or an orc, everyone behaves the same way. It will be a bit more measured."
Everyone was confused whether they understood or not.
"It means, it's not that I don't like playing with you, the way of playing is different. I'll play with them, rub my belly and ears, and tell you stories, okay?"
With a few words, the child was calmed down again.
A few people sat under the shade of the tree, surrounding Zhuo Yan, surrounded by red spicy fruits. Zhuo Yan told the humanoid children a nonsense story about a mermaid, and changed it into an adventure version of the four fur tribe cubs. The heroine was full of emotions. Wisdom and bravery, she takes her small adventurous group on various adventures.
The werewolf cub had never been to the beach. Not to mention the werewolf cub was stunned and surprised, even Aman and Qiao were fascinated by it.
The sea water is salty.
"...Yes, so Yuren can make salt by flying to the seaside, because salt is also salty."
The children were curious: "How big is the sea? Is it as big as the largest river in our tribe?"
"It's bigger than that. Take a look. In the past, at the end of the grassland, replace the grassland with the sea, and this is the sea."
Xiaohua listened the most seriously, because the heroine of the adventure story Zhuo Yan told was also named Xiaohua.
Zhuo Yan: Of course I made it up to coax Xiaohua.
"Wow.", "The sea is so big.", "Is the sea green, Zhuo Yan?"
"No, it's blue." Zhuo Yan said.
The cubs still couldn't think about it. Xiaohua stood up and looked at the grassland and said, "When I become an orc in the future, I will also take you to see the sea."
"Zhuo Yan, I changed my mind. I won't go to the leopard man ." I'm going to find the sea first."
"I'll go find you after I find the treasure in the sea."
Zhuo Yan: "...It's very far away, and I don't know where it is. I heard it from Yu Ren. "
Then I'll grab a feathered man to lead the way."
"Yes, this is a good idea, but the feathered man hates us orcs. What if he points you in the opposite direction on purpose?"
Xiaohua was confused. The cubs looked at each other, and the little wolf cub's face was filled with shock that "it's okay," and he actually lied.
"Zhuo Yan, what should we do?" Aman was also thinking about how to go about this.
Joe also looked over, eager to get the answer.
Zhuo Yan asked the two of them, "If we ask Boss Kong and the others, will they give us random fingers?"
"Absolutely not." "But Boss Kong and the others have never been there," Qiao and Aman said.
The cubs asked who Boss Kong was.
"Our partners are a group of beautiful peacocks. They are also feathered people, but they have never been to the beach. If they had been, they would definitely not lie to us." Zhuo Yan touched the head of the little wolf cub. Why is it so stupid? It's so cute. , "There are good and bad people in every ethnic group. If you exchange your hearts sincerely and become a partner, he will lead you to the right path."
Xiaohua thought for a moment and nodded in understanding.
Afterwards, he picked some red spicy fruits. Zhuo Yan pinched them open and found that there were no seeds inside. But, but, here comes the red spicy fruits with seeds on the outside and small black spots, just like strawberries.
Zhuo Yan: Take it all and go back and try.
However, the seeds are too small, so you need to be careful when collecting them.
They stayed in the werewolf tribe for three days. During these three days, the cubs would play with Zhuo Yan as soon as they opened their eyes and listen to Zhuo Yan's stories - especially Xiaohua. In the end, I turned into a mermaid and turned it into a serialized adventure novel in three days.
Xiaohua and her friends go on an adventure to find the mermaid princess in the sea.
After collecting the seeds of the red spicy fruit, Zhuo Yan told the werewolf orc that the fruit could be dried and ground into powder, which would make it easier to store.
Because red spicy fruits are everywhere in the mountains and plains, they are enough to eat even in winter, unless there are no more when the snow is deep, so no one thinks about storing them. They just pick them when they want to eat them, but Zhuo Yan said, You can try it later.
The result is that the red spicy fruit that is dried and ground into powder is less astringent and more like chili powder.
Let's talk about this later.
Anyway, three days later, they were leaving for the Snow Deer. The first one was a group of wolf cubs who were reluctant to part with them. Aman and Qiao looked at Zhuo Yan amusedly, and Zhuo Yan patted their heads one by one, and then passed the blame to their adults.
"Next year you can come to our tribe to play with the adults." As
soon as these words came out, the little wolf cubs looked for the adults. When they saw someone, they rushed towards them and hugged their thighs, howling and wailing. Zhuo Yan couldn't understand the animal language, but this time Can understand what the little wolf cub means.
Go, go, let's go next year. If my father and mother don't take me, uncle, you can take me.
In short, the pot has been thrown away. Zhuo Yan said goodbye to the werewolves with a smile, and harvested some potatoes for them to eat on the way. The orcs told A Yin and others about the prey and water sources in the snow-capped mountains.
"...Don't drink hot water, it's hard to drink."
"Going further inside, there is a place full of rocks and few trees. There is a gap where some water drips. You can drink this."
A Yinji People took note, Zhuo Yan and the others turned over and set off.
Xiaohua stood in the front row and waved as hard as she could. She knew that Zhuo Yan was just like that story, taking risks with his friends. Zhuo Yan was so brave.
Amei stood in the crowd, holding Xiao Hui and Xiao Hei, the cubs she gave birth to. Looking into the distance, the silver leopard got older and farther away. It ran very fast, was big, strong and vigorous. , it's amazing at first glance.
That's fine.
"Mom, please take us to play with Zhuo Yan in the Leopard Man tribe next year." "Please, Dad."
The orc werewolf looked at his partner, Ami nodded, and the orc and werewolf agreed to the cub's request. The two cubs The cub was so happy.
...
That night Zhuo Yan and A Yin fell in love under the moonlight. A Yin had neither hatred nor love for A Mei. A Yin once loved the fictional mother character and longed for her to save him, but he met Zhuo Yan, who sang as a half-orc. Bai Maozi became Ah Yin.
So Ah Yin treats A Mei just like he treats the werewolf tribe members.
If the other person is friendly, he is friendly, and nothing else.
Ah Yin was driving at high speed with his brother on his back. It was really comfortable just a few days after the rainy season. Except for the sun at noon, it was cool all day long, especially when traveling through the forest. The orcs ran very fast and the face was cool. the wind.
When they are tired from running, they will rest under a tree and have a barbecue. When they encounter a water source, they will separate to clean it - they all travel together as a pair. Ah Hui: ...
He vowed to form a partner this year.
Zhuo Yan and Qiao Aman gossiped in front of Ah Hui.
"Who else is single in our tribe now?"
Qiao said the names of three sub-orcs, among which Xiao Xian was among them. A Man said: "A Tou didn't come this time. We will definitely get married when we go back. Then there will only be two people left, and Xiao Xian can't do it."
"Then only Xiao He is left."
After thinking about it for a while, Ah Hui didn't even think about Xiao He . Who is. Qiao said: "I hugged you before."
Zhuo Yan: Huh? After stumbling, he hugged Ah Hui, "So Xiao He is older than Ah Hui?"
"About seven years older." A Man thought it was okay, and while he was working for Zhuo Yan, he was almost as tall as a stone. A bit dark and male.
Zhuo Yan suddenly remembered, "Do you often play with Lin Rongcong Lu and the others?"
"Yes." Qiao said.
Aman: "He is very strong. He has never had a partner. He always lives in burrows with orcs. He has had three children and they have all been raised..."
"Uncle Ah He?!" Ah Hui was shocked. .
Qiao said: "Actually, he's not very big. You should call him brother."
"Yes, yes, you are not young anymore." Aman said seriously, "I heard my grandma say that if Xiaohe were younger, he would be younger." I don't like Ah Hui." He muttered that maybe he doesn't even like him now.
Xiaohe is a replica of Stone - in the eyes of the orcs, he is a very good and strong sub-orc. As soon as Xiaohe came of age, he chose the strongest and most powerful orc in the tribe to make a burrow. He did not have a mate. Two years later, he gave birth to a baby. Boy, a few years later, the orc died. Xiaohe spent one year with the human-shaped cub, and the next year he chose another orc to make a hole.
"What about the cub?" Zhuo Yan asked.
Qiao: "Sent him to a big cave to raise."
Zhuo Yan thought of A Yin. There was too little food at that time, and this was the habit of the tribe.
"You lived with another orc for four years, right? You gave birth to two cubs. In fact, Xiaohe secretly went to the big cave to take care of the humanoid cubs..."
Then things got better now, and all three cubs are alive. Xiaohe was with that one last year. The orcs broke up, moved to the old cave with their children, and took the eldest son back. The eldest brother is an orc and will be able to hunt as an adult in a few years.
All Zhuo Yan could think about was that he could secretly feed the boss in the big cave - but he thought so, that was his own child.
Ah Yin glanced at his brother's expression and knew that he felt sorry for him again. In fact, he didn't care about it before. Furukawa had nothing to do with him, but - if
his brother felt sorry for him, when he arrived at Snow Deer Mountain, the werewolf said that there was warm water. , you can take a bath, and he can mate with his brother there! You can also try to call your brother by his first name. When he calls your brother by your first name, your brother's ears will turn red.
Zhuo Yan had no idea that he was feeling sorry for Ah Yin, while Ah Yin was thinking about his butt.
Ah Hui was meditating beside him.
No wonder Ah Tou didn't come this time. It turns out that Ah Tou wants to pursue a partner. So is it possible that he will really marry Uncle A He after he returns?
ah? ! He doesn't want it!
It only takes more than three days to get from the werewolf tribe to the snow-capped mountains. The originally transparent 'river' turned into a real river. The water flowing from the snow-capped mountains and the green transparent glass turned into gray stones. If Zhuo Yan hadn't seen this river with his own eyes, Looking through the transparent glass, you would never believe that the gray stones under the river are so beautiful in winter.
But as soon as you hold it, you will know that this gray stone is different from ordinary stone - it is half the weight of ordinary stone.
Aman was a little thirsty due to the sun, so he went to the river to drink water, but as soon as he lowered his head and covered his mouth, he ran over. Qiao also felt a little sick and wanted to vomit.
"Zhuo Yan, that water is so disgusting, it smells so bad."
"Me too, I thought I smelled it wrong." Qiao covered her nose and still felt uncomfortable.
Zhuo Yan thought about the snow deer he killed last year. It really made him feel sick just thinking about it. "I'll go over and have a look." But he was still a little curious.
"I'll go too!" Ah Yin followed her brother.
When he walked to the river, the wind blew, and there was a faint fishy smell in the air. It was not strong, but faint. Zhuo Yan looked down at the river water again. The water was not clean at all, and there were floating objects. He reached into the river and picked up a gray stone. Very light, transparent stone.
There was a little grease on my arms and hands when I came out - that's probably where the fishy smell came from.
Aman came over holding his nose and said in a loud voice: "Your hands are quite shiny."
"That's because there is grease. I saw those snow deer cleaning here last year -" Zhuo Yan threw away the transparent stone, "Let's leave first Here it is."
He couldn't stand it anymore.
Ah Hui is the cleverest and can't get over if he is crouching far away.
Zhuo Yan sat on A Yin's back. Everyone quickly left the river and ran into the snowy mountains. They were far away. A Man said: "Why is it so far away? There is still a smell."
"...Because it came from my arm. "Yes." Zhuo Yan said quietly on A Yin's back.
Now he finally knows the advantages of Snow Deer. Those transparent stones are the result of Snow Deer running around for years to clean and rub the stones, and finally become transparent?
If this conjecture is true, go into the mountains and search by the river. There must be places where snow deer often hang out - the area over there is larger, and it is the difference between a large bathhouse and a single bathhouse.
You have to run for a while to see the mountain. This mountain is the only one, but it is extraordinarily tall. Compared with the delicate hills where the werewolves and leopards live, this is the real high mountain. The temperature in the mountain is slightly higher, the trees are lush, and there are unknown people along the way. The flowers are quite beautiful.
Some paths were trampled on, and some had no roads. Ah Yin took the lead and ran. At the fork in the road, Ah Da whined. Ah Yin translated: "A Da smells something fishy."
"They must be those snow deers. We'd better stay away. " Let's go." Aman suggested, he was afraid that he would vomit.
Zhuo Yan nodded. Anyway, the person who came to carry the transparent stone this time was not looking for Snow Deer.
So everyone ran away carrying the fishy smell, and finally found the hot springs and the water that the werewolf orcs said was drinkable. It was a natural water channel formed by stone channels in the mountains, dripping water, and there happened to be a stone basin the size of a basin at the bottom. The cave basin accumulated some water.
"Who wants to try it?" Aman was afraid of the water.
Dan held it in his hand and took a sip, "It's not fishy."
Aman happily went to hold the water and drank it. The water was still very sweet. Zhuo Yan first went to the hot spring pool to wash his hands. The hot spring pool was a flowing, natural bathing pool.
Ah Yin and the others found a platform that was easy to defend. It was not far away. The terrain was slightly higher and unique. There were trees but not too dense. They could see clearly in all directions. Everyone set up camp to rest. Ada and Ah Yin went hunting. Ash was left to guard.
In the evening, Ayinada came back, carrying the processed rabbits and some ripe berries. The two said that there were snow deer everywhere here. After looking for some chickens and rabbits for a while, Zhuo Yan roasted the potatoes. Roast it and share it with everyone.
They will stay here overnight and take another look in the mountains tomorrow. If they find nothing, they will move back home.
That night everyone seemed to be asleep.
"Brother, I discovered that there is a warm water pool not far from here. Do you want to take a bath?"
Zhuo Yan said: Wow, oh wow, it's just a good time to take a sweaty bath to relieve your fatigue.
Chapter 87
"Zhuo Yan and A Yin didn't come back all night."
"When they left, I actually didn't sleep." Qiao said that she also heard it, but when she thought about it, she knew what they were going to do, so she Pretending to be asleep.
Since Maha found out about Maha's gossip behind his back, a few people have restrained themselves a bit, but Aman did not feel a little guilty or embarrassed when he gossiped about Zhuo Yan behind his back - who made the two of them have such a good relationship, they would sit up cross-legged, Pulled Joe with interest.
"Zhuo Yan and A Yin ran out on the first night in the werewolf tribe. Unexpectedly, they ran out again in the snow mountain. It lasted all night, the whole night!"
"The werewolf tribe came back quite well that day. "It's early, but I slept until daylight."
"They are really awesome."
Qiao couldn't hold it back and said, "Usually, Zhuo Yan is quite shy and doesn't talk about sex or entertainment at night. "Words, but I didn't expect -"
"I understand, this is Zhuo Yan saying Shitou is boring, and so is he!" A Man answered quickly.
The two of them had a good time. After they finished laughing, Qiao was still kind-hearted and gave Zhuo Yan some advice and said, "Actually, this is quite good. Maybe Zhuo Yan will have a baby this year."
Aman heard what Qiao said, and originally He wanted to say that there was no rush, Zaizai was not that easy to conceive, but after thinking about it, Qiao actually wanted Zaizai very much. He said this every time, and he couldn't help but said: "That's right, they are all out to play anyway, Qiao. "Try this water with Ada."
"Zhuo Yan said it's called a hot spring, and your skin will feel slippery after washing."
"But it's not bad if it's slippery. Zhuo Yan really likes those things that are fancy and beautiful."
With his heart trembling, Qiao nodded and said, Ada and I will try it tonight.
Although everyone is a little shy in this regard, they are more honest about their desires and want cubs. There is no shame in this.
"Then I'll give it a try. I'll ask Dan to find another hot spring pit and we should spread out. Otherwise, I'll be embarrassed if I shout too loudly." Aman said.
...
Zhuo Yan was being held by Ah Yin. He couldn't open his legs and felt a little sad. He was really embarrassed to see Qiao and A Man. He knew with his toes that A Man must be muttering behind his back what he was doing when he didn't come back all night!
Although, I didn't take the blame this time because it really happened.
"Go, go slower." Zhuo Yan's face was still red.
Ah Yin smiled, hugged her brother and went to the shade of the tree to look at the scenery, while rubbing her body. As soon as Zhuo Yan was touched by Ah Yin, his whole body felt sore and weak, and an electric current hit him. He shouted very sensitively: "What are you doing!"
No one could do it again.
I felt incontinent several times last night.
"Brother, I'll squeeze it for you. Qiao and Aman will figure it out soon."
Zhuo Yan heard the truth and said, "Then you squeeze it, I have to slow down."
"I know." Ah Yin nodded obediently. I promise, don't stop if you don't tell me that my brother was so happy last night. If he did, my brother would definitely bite himâalthough it wouldn't hurt, hehe.
The two of them were squeezing each other on the top of the mountain. Zhuo Yan's face was still red and his body was a little soft. He was thinking about last night - was X medicine sprinkled in the hot spring?
Something's wrong, something really isn't right.
"Don't, stop pinching." The more he pinched, the more uncomfortable he became. Zhuo Yan said: "You'd better carry me on your back."
"Brother, can you spread your legs?"
Zhuo Yan's ears, face and neck turned red, and he said vaguely: "Okay... okay." Orc genes are still very strong. , he could bear the small pain, compared to losing face in front of Amanqiao, although everyone must have guessed what they did last night.
But Zhuo Yan, who is modern at heart, is still very reserved - he has to cover it with a layer of transparent paper so that he cannot lose face.
Ah Yin stood up and carried his brother on his back.
Ah Hui stood guard at the entrance of the camp. When he saw them coming back, he showed his white teeth and said, "You are back!" Then he said hurriedly: "A Yin, are you here to guard? I want to go patrolling the mountain."
"Okay, I will guard today . ." A Yin nodded.
Ah Hui was so happy. Ada and Dan ran to patrol the mountains. He actually wanted to play, but he had to stay and watch the camp and wait for Ah Yin to come back. Now was great.
So Ah Hui ran a few steps and turned into an animal shape. His skin fell off and he let out two moans and disappeared happily into the mountains.
Amanqiao heard the noise and was very happy to see Zhuo Yan back. The two of them waved and gave up their seats on the mat for Zhuo Yan to sit on. "They went to patrol the mountains. If there are no big beasts in the mountains, we will go tonight too." Take a bath in the hot spring."
"You and A Yin are staying here?" A Man arranged it clearly, and said: "Zhuo Yan, you won't go out with A Yin tonight, right?"
It looks like you have been together all night. Take a break.
Zhuo Yan: ...Thank you for your understanding.
"A Yin and I will stay in the camp tonight to guard."
A Man was happy and added: "There is also A Hui."
"I know."
A Man reminded him that A Hui was still there, but Zhuo Yan never thought about it. Looking at it - his body was almost unable to bear it. Looking at the expectant expressions of Aman and Qiao, Zhuo Yan hesitated again and again and did not tell his guess.
He suspected that the hot spring water contained X-drug, but this was just a random guess on his part.
On this day, Dan and Ada ran for a long time. Ah Hui ran back first and brought some rabbits and chickens that had not been processed. Ah Yin took them to deal with them. Ah Hui stayed here to rest. Said: "There are so many snow deers everywhere, why are there so many."
"Those snow deers are very stupid. I have never seen such stupid ones. I thought they were not afraid of me, so I got close to them and saw After waiting for a long time, I made a sound, and then those snow deers saw me, flapped their wings to fly, and stumbled several times..."
Amanqiao listened very seriously. They heard what Zhuo Yan said before, but they didn't expect it. Even stupider than Zhuo Yan said.
"It's so close, just a few steps away." Ah Hui also sighed, it was so silly.
It's a pity that the meat is smelly and cannot be eaten.
After Ah Yin finished handling the prey, Aman and Qiao gathered firewood and started grilling meat nearby. Zhuo Yan wanted to help, but Aman stepped back and said, "You have a rest today and wait until tomorrow. You come to barbecue and take care of me and Qiao, but We are stronger than you, but we are not as unsteady as you."
"..." Zhuo Yan gritted his teeth, but still couldn't hold it back and said harshly: "Then you two try it."
Let you two follow the hot spring water . Same as me, I can't walk on the road!
After eating some and resting for a while, Danada came back. The two of them ate, all of which were raw, including chickens and rabbits. During the half of their stay during the mountain patrol, there were no other large carnivores except snow deer. animal.
So the atmosphere is different, everyone is looking forward to the night.
Ah Hui: ...He is the only one who is superfluous.
Soon night fell, and Aman couldn't sit still anymore. He took the soap and said, "Da En and I are leaving first."
"Then... Zhuo Yan, Ada and I are leaving first." Qiao also stood up.
Zhuo Yan smiled and waved, "Have fun, bye, bye~" You two will be the same tomorrow, and you still laugh at me today!
That night, Zhuo Yan rolled into Ah Yin's arms to sleep, while Ah Hui was lying in the corner. Because he was bored, he turned into an animal shape and could be more alert.
After sleeping until dawn, Zhuo Yan woke up and did not see Qiao and A Man. He said to A Yin: "Don't be in a hurry, don't be hungry, just sleep for a while." He wanted to see what time these two would come back today!
Facts have proved that Zhuo Yan's physical fitness has become excellent after several years of training. Because Aman and Qiao were both carried back by their respective partners. Zhuo Yan smiled attentively and said, "How are you two? Can't walk? It doesn't matter. I will take care of you two today." Aman's
face turned red and he followed Qiao said: "Look, he will definitely laugh at us."
"Don't think I don't know, you two also laughed at me behind my back yesterday." Zhuo Yan spread the mat for the two of them.
Qiao said nothing because Zhuo Yan was right. Aman curled his lips, okay, but the next second he smiled broadly and talked about the hot springs.
"It's really refreshing."
"The hot springs are really nice to soak in." "
The skin is so smooth."
Not to mention Qiao and Aman, Dan and Ada are also very talented. On this day, the sub-orcs rested. The orcs were going to catch some snow deer and make leather bags. They would pack transparent stones and return to the tribe tomorrow.
On the third day, they fished a lot of transparent stones from the river, and Zhuo Yan and the others also filled half of their backpacks. Fortunately, this thing was half lighter than real stones, otherwise long-distance transportation would have been hard and troublesome.
It was filled with stones in the evening, and the four orcs were carrying four heavy burdens, and they had to carry their respective companions - Ah Hui felt relaxed.
Zhuo Yan was afraid of A Yinchen, so he asked several times if it was heavy? The stones in his basket can be thrown away.
Ah Yin laughs so happily every time that he is an unfailing brother.
Zhuo Yan was suspicious, "You must not force it. Is it sinking or not? With a smile like this -"
"It's not sinking or it's not sinking." A'man couldn't listen anymore, "Zhuo Yan, A Yin is not a baby, orcs weigh it. These are really not heavy. If they were made of rocks, one person could carry half of them."
Qiao said, "Zhuo Yan also cares about A Yin."
"I know." A Man understands, "Zhuo Yan and A Yin are disgusting." "
Zhuo Yan: ... He seems to be a bit verbose.
A Yin seemed to feel his brother's emotions. He raised his neck and rubbed his brother, then rubbed his brother's legs and asked his brother to get on his back. He said: "It's really not heavy."
"That's good."
When he started running, Facing the wind, Zhuo Yan heard Ah Yin say that he laughed just now because his brother liked him so much and cared about his happiness. Zhuo Yan stretched out his arms and touched the long hair on Ah Yin's neck. Of course he cared about his Ah Yin.
This time it was faster than the trip back to the tribe during the snow season, because there was no wind and snow, the road was easy to walk, and there was no rain, so I ran very quickly and reached the tribe in more than six days.
The tribe was no different from when we set out, and it was all thriving.
After the rainy season, the ground is plowed and sown. Now is a rare and pleasant time - the temperature is not very sunny, the sky is very dry and there is no rain, there is food in the cave, and it is still early for winter, so there is no need to rush to stock up on food. In the first half of the year, pottery is fired , make salt, and have more than a month to spare before the autumn storage time.
The orcs and sub-orcs resumed their lazy time again. Four patrol and hunting teams came in turns. Everyone had their own free time and could do some work in their caves.
Furniture such as tables, stools and shelves, or nothing else, the resting orcs carry their sub-orc companions on their backs for a walk - just like Zhuo Yan and the others go out for an outing.
The orc cubs in Horde are working by the river, and the cubs are running around.
Xiaopan Xiaoyan is a little older and naive, and has even learned to climb trees. Lin Rong and Asen are guarding under the tree. Xiaopan Xiaoyan on the tree sees the silver leopard coming back and howls. Very happy.
"Zhuo Yan is back."
"A Yin and the others are back!"
the orcs and sub-orcs by the river said one after another. After Ah Yin and others arrived, they transformed into animal shapes and unloaded their things. Boss Shitou and Kong were also by the river and saw them running over from a distance.
Everyone gathered around Zhuo Yan and asked what he had brought and why there were so many.
"I made glass in the spring, and I brought back the raw materials this time." Zhuo Yan said simply.
Everyone is very enthusiastic.
"I also saw them eating red spicy fruits in the werewolf tribe, which is almost as pungent as garlic. I also brought some seeds back and planted them in my vegetable field. During the autumn harvest, the red spicy fruits will be harvested. If any of you want to find me then, That's good."
"Thank you." "What does red spicy fruit taste like?" "Didn't Zhuo Yan say it's the same as garlic?" "I don't like it. I like it, it tastes great when grilling meat."
Everyone was talking about it.
Shitou ran over and gave Zhuo Yan, Qiao and Aman a hug one by one. "You are finally back."
"Brother Zhuo Yanââ"
"Qiaoââ"
"Amanââ"
Xiao Xian's voice sounded from far to near. , the whole person swooped over. Zhuo Yan was able to be knocked away because Ah Yin was supporting him from behind. Xiao Xian was happy and jumped up and down: "You are finally back."
He could talk for a long time at the foot of the hillside, and his mouth was dry. There is no need to move the stones back, just put them under the shed of the kiln. Zhuo Yan will start making a loom tomorrow, and of course he will need the help of his friends.
When Shitou Xiaoxian heard this, he was very happy and agreed to come to the kiln to work early tomorrow morning.
"...Okay." The attitude of the two of them made Zhuo Yan feel like he was doing the work for them.
"Are you too tired?" Shitou asked belatedly, "How about you rest for a few days?"
Zhuo Yan: "No, I've rested." I didn't do much work in the werewolf tribe this time. Eat, drink, and get to work quickly when you get to Snow Deer Mountain, not to mention the hot spring resort.
"That's okay." Shitou nodded readily.
Aman and Qiao were both laughing, but Xiao Xian noticed something was wrong, "Why are you both laughing when Brother Zhuo Yan said you had rested? Where did you go to play? Was it fun?"
"When you have a partner in the future, We can go to the hot spring together." A Man came over and patted Xiao Xian on the shoulder.
Xiao Xian: "What? It's mysterious."
After chatting for a long time, when they finally dispersed and went back to their respective homes, Kong Xingxing said: "Your tooth pigs are very delicious. It's great to have you back."
"Father and son . Haven't you been eaten yet?" Zhuo Yan exclaimed.
Shitou: "What are you talking about? The whole tribe knows your tooth pig. No one eats it. Moreover, the big one is very smart and specially picks the holes where it can talk. Not only in my cave, but also in Lin Rong's place, Cong Lu, A Bai, and A Hua have all eaten it. "
"..." Zhuo Yan was speechless. He was not here. Yazhu and his son gave him so much credit.
Shitou happily went home with Xingxing, waving to see him tomorrow.
Yazhu and his son are so dirty, especially during the rainy season. Everywhere they go is dirty. Xingxing loves to be clean and has endured it for a long time. They grind their teeth every day and say they want to eat Yazhu or roast Yazhu, but they still give them to Yazhu. Pigs throw away their food.
It's okay now, Zhuo Yan and the others are back, and Yazhu has a Zhuo Yan pipe.
Zhuo Yan and A Yin went home and sighed on the way: "These two are really lucky."
"Everyone in the tribe is not short of food." A Yin said.
That's true.
Ah Yin was very happy and leaned over to kiss Zhuo Yan suddenly.
"Why are you so happy?"
"Because there is no shortage of food in the tribe."
Zhuo Yan didn't realize it until before going to bed in the evening. Ah Yin said twice why he was happy that the tribe had no shortage of food. He couldn't help but feel distressed and hugged Ah Yin and kissed her. "In the future, even if the cubs in the tribe are sent to the big cave, they will not go hungry. Is this what you want to say?"
"Yeah." Ah Yin licked his brother's head.
Zhuo Yan: I cried like a faucet.
Then Zhuo Yan and A Yin kissed and hugged each other for another night. When he woke up the next day, his waist was really weak...
Fortunately, the next day, he was not needed for the initial preparation of materials.
Zhuo Yan used tree branches to draw schematic diagrams of looms and spinning machines on the ground. He was also reviewing the drawings for himself. After all, he hadn't done it for several years. He stumbled at the beginning. He continued to draw and made mistakes when he tried again, and sorted it out. The second time he was eloquent -
the surroundings were quiet.
After he finished speaking, he looked up and saw that all the onlookers were confused. Not only his friends, but also many orcs who were joining in the fun. Everyone was confused and couldn't understand what he was saying.
What is Zhuo Yan doing this, what are the longitude and latitude, what is the shuttle...
"..." Zhuo Yan thought, maybe it would be good to make it, but he scanned the six Peacocks, including Kong Yue, who were all confused. Mixed with some sudden realization, Kong Xingxing, who took the lead, looked shocked and looked at him with gleaming eyes.
Zhuo Yan was shocked by the sight.
"What's wrong?"
"You are really smart." After Kong Xingxing finished speaking, he pushed aside the crowd and squatted on the ground, "What do you mean, you can spin a lot of threads first and intertwine them horizontally and vertically..."
Kong Huo The five people squatted next to Kong Xingxing. After several discussions, they all saw the twinkling light in Zhuo Yan's eyes and said, "Zhuo Yan, you are so smart."
"How did you come up with this?"
"This saves so much time. "
The Leopard Man sub-orc: I can't understand a word. What is Peacock talking about? But Peacock is right. Zhuo Yan is very smart. Peacock understands it. But Zhuo Yan is a Leopard Man sub-orc. There are also smart people in the Leopard People!
"Otherwise, do you think I'm asking you to make clothes piece by piece?" Zhuo Yan asked.
Kong Xingxing nodded matter-of-factly. Zhuo Yan was silent for a moment, "Don't you think it's hard?" It takes a long time to weave threads into cloth.
"Thank you, I missed you so badly at that time." After Kong Xingxing finished speaking, he added: "Just for a moment, I stopped thinking about it when I saw the big guy."
In order to stay, just make clothes.
Shitou couldn't understand in front of him, but he understood what Xingxing said. He was moved and secretly kissed Xingxing's ear. Kong Xingxing was a little itchy and his ears turned red. He said in a low voice: "Let's talk when we go back tonight."
"No, I just want to. Kiss you."
"I know, you can do it at night."
Zhuo Yan: ...You two are really able to show your affection openly with so many people around. A Man also said that he and A Yin are really incomparable. and Boss Kong.
But the blame for his evil foreman was finally cleared away.
"Let's cut down the wood first." Zhuo Yan finally said. He also wanted to twist a straw rope to use as a ruler to make a more precise loom.
Ah Yin took the lead in chopping wood.
"It doesn't take too much, just one big tree is enough." Zhuo Yan began to assign tasks, because many people came to help, including Maha.
Zhuo Yan: ...
then Maha will be responsible for building walls and building a glass studio.
When building the studio, Zhuo Yan asked Peacock where the six people would put it. He thought the six people would build it on the large platform at the entrance of the cave at home. But it turned out that the six people had already discussed it and built it next to the river below the door of the house.
"Shitou often goes to the river to work, and it is more convenient for us to work there." Kong Xingxing said.
Zhuo Yan: Your first sentence is the key point.
But it is true that it is more convenient to transport ramie silk, soak it, dry it, etc. by the river. However, you still have to choose the side Kong Xingxing mentioned. It is close to the cave slope of his home. During the rainy season, there will be muddy water washing away. This area is not suitable.
Finally, it is at the foot of the mountain leading to the back mountain, the area next to the river, but it needs to cut down some vegetation and make major repairs - this is the first house in the tribe. Zhuo Yan originally wanted to build a simple shed, but this changed idea.
Build a decent big house with brick, wood and glass windows.
Houses in ancient times have stood firm for two to three hundred years, and it is important to choose the right walls and beams to support them - but now, the most indispensable thing is trees that are hundreds of years old.
This place is also relatively close to the ramie field, which is very suitable.
Just do it.
The kiln factory has also been opened. Because they need to burn glass, they need to build a big house and make a textile machine within a month. The big house is a brick, wood and glass structure. Due to lighting problems, the windows need to be opened wide and sealed directly. , wooden hinges are not suitable for window hinges, just open the door for ventilation.
Or try to make a sliding window and seal the other lighting windows.
The roof is tiles.
Zhuo Yan has already directed this kind of collective activity, and the orcs of the kiln-burning clan are all very good at it. Although glass burning, brick burning, and tile burning are different, everyone understands how to do it when it comes to proportions.
"Look, I'm not stupid. I understand this time!"
"Me too, it's just burning glass. It's easier than burning pottery."
He didn't understand it just now. Now he has found confidence. Don't worry, Zhuo Yan. They Mission accomplished for sure.
The vegetation on the ground was cleared, and the trees were uprooted and thrown aside. Zhuo Yan said that when building a house, a good foundation must be laid, at least as deep as his knees. Maha thought for a moment and dug deeper - this is better!
Zhuo Yan: ...that's okay too.
The riverside became lively again. Originally, few people came to the riverside in the back mountain where Shitou Aman lived, because the vegetation there blocked the road and was inaccessible. But now it is different and lively.
"That's great.", "Zhuo Yan was very lively as soon as he came back.", "I quite like working.", "Is the gray stone that was burned made of transparent glass?", "Call Zhuo Yan that way."
The beams and load-bearing trees that make up the house still need to be carbonized to prevent mold and termite gnawing. As everyone knows, the entire house is more than 40 square meters and can accommodate five or six looms. It is completely built as a textile house.
When Zhuo Yan was working this time, he specifically asked Shitou if Gu He had been here before.
"Why did you ask about him? Did he bully A Yin?"
"No, don't tell A Yin that I asked this."
Shitou nodded, although he didn't understand why, A Yin was driven to the big cave and disappeared with Furukawa. Although Zhuo Yan wanted to know, he still said: "If I meet you next time, I will point it out to you. In fact, Furukawa is easy to recognize. He is similar to Maha, taller than Maha, and is the strongest in the tribe. Orc, Zhuo Yan , you are very smart, and A Yin is very powerful now, but you should not fight against Furukawa."
"
And you are better off now, don't think about the past."
Knowing that Ada Ama and Daya are very powerful, I asked Shitou how he compares to Furukawa?
"It's different. Look, if it weren't for Kong Yue and the others, wouldn't we have played with Maha? Of course, Maha might not have liked playing with us before because he thought we were weak."
"That's how Furukawa is. He thinks everyone He is weak and can only hunt unless ordered by the clan leader."
Zhuo Yan felt uncomfortable when he heard this, "Since he is so strong, it is no big deal to raise A Yin. The cub doesn't eat much, and he drives A Yin out. ..."
Shitou finally understood why Zhuo Yan asked these questions, and couldn't help but sit next to Zhuo Yan and said: "Some people in the tribe have done this before, and there are also people who feel sorry for the cubs and are reluctant to send them away. For example, your mother, even though your father died.
"Zhuo Yan, Maha was so annoying in the past, but the orcs in the tribe still hunted with Maha, because Maha was very strong at that time. " With no food to fill, the sub-orcs relied on orcs to hunt for food. No one would say that Furukawa did something wrong. "
"And to be honest, Ah Yin's fur was different from everyone else's at that time, and he hadn't transformed for a long time. I know you feel sorry for Ah Yin now. , But if you ask Furukawa, Furukawa will not think that he has done anything wrong. "
"I never thought before that if there is food, of course it should be fed to the strongest orc to ensure that he can go out hunting and bring back prey for us to survive.
"But now Zhuo Yan, I don't think so anymore. When Dancub breaks out of his shell, if there is a tide of beasts, the stars are gone, or I die, we have agreed that Dancub will be brought up. " , let's hit the tree again when he is an adult."
Zhuo Yan looked at the stone, and he understood what the stone meant, "I felt a little depressed after I came back from outside. It's okay. You're right, Ah Yin and I have a good life. The most important thing."
"Hahaha, if it weren't for the wrong season, I would have thought you were in spring again."
Zhuo Yan: ...
Sun-drying yellow mud bricks are added with dried straw sections to increase the stickiness. , batches are sent to the kiln to be burned, then poured with water and dried in the sun before being transported to the textile house. The foundation is built there, and a row of three big trees serve as load-bearing pillars. If the winter is not so cold and the snow is deep, there is no need. So many load-bearing columns.
The tiles and glass windows were also burned in batches and placed neatly.
The whole house is a rectangular parallelepiped with a triangular sloping roof. The height of the wall reaches waist height and is seven meters long. Three pillars serve as the dividing lines for the windows. There are three large windows on the back wall. Because the glass windows are large, they are divided into squares with wooden frames. Small windows, a wooden door in the middle of the front, large windows on the left and right, and a tiled roof.
On both sides are small sliding windows for ventilation.
After more than half a month, the first house of the prehistoric orcs was finally completed, sparkling in the sun, because the sunlight from the river in the distance shone brightly on the glass with a light green light.
"It's so beautiful.", "So beautiful.", "Is it built for the Peacock tribe?", "Of course not, Zhuo Yan said, this is a textile house, but Zhuo Yan made a lot of wood and said it was textile I can't understand it." "The Peacocks understand, they want to make clothes for us."
"
Can we go see the glass house?
"
The patriarch and uncle had been here two or three times during this period. At this time, they saw that the house was completely built. They went in and took a look. The house was very open and bright, much better than the light in the cave. The floor was paved with large bricks. , it has been cleaned, and there are a lot of wood piled on the ground in the corner.
Zhuo Yan said these were textile machine parts and were just waiting to be installed.
Chapter 88
Everyone saw with their own eyes that a pile of wooden parts on the ground were put together by six people from the Peacock tribe under the command of Zhuo Yan, forming a wooden frame. They had no idea what it was used for.
In half a month, Zhuo Yan only made two units.
"Is this good?"
"Okay."
"How to use it?", "Is this for viewing?", "So this is a loom. I heard Zhuo Yan say it before, and thought Zhuo Yan wanted to raise it. "Chicken." "Actually, so am I." "Why is the wood called a chicken?"
Many people in the clan were curious, even the clan leader and uncle looked at Zhuo Yan.
Zhuo Yan: ...How do you explain this machine?
"When the ramie is harvested, everyone will know how to use it." I can only say this, but now that he doesn't have a physical demonstration, everyone can't understand it.
Although everyone doesn't understand how to use this 'chicken', they know how to look at the house. Compared with the darkness in the cave, it is still very bright inside in the evening.
It is a hundred meters away from the river. Because the river will swell and widen after winter, the original trees and vegetation have been uprooted, and the ground has been compacted, creating an operation site for drying ramie silk.
It is already mid-autumn. After there is more salt, food for the winter can be stored at this time. It is still the same as before: the orcs go out to hunt, and the two teams become one team. They go to distant places to run more and bring back the prey. The sub-orcs We have to start making bacon and bacon, and after finishing the meat, we will be busy with the second round of autumn harvest this year.
Dudu fruits can be picked later, just before winter.
Also burn charcoal.
I burned a batch last year, and the orcs liked it. They said it was better to burn it in the cave than firewood in winter, with less smoke and no dirty firewood ash everywhere.
Anyway, it's starting to be a busy period again.
The most important thing is: the ramie is also ripe. Logically speaking, the yield of the first round of ramie was not high, and the second and third rounds grew more and more lush. But Zhuo Yan forgot that this was a prehistoric continent where 'everything grown grew crazy'.
Therefore, the growth of ramie fields is gratifying. The height of modern ramie is about 1.5 to 1.8 meters, but the ramie here has reached the height of Zhuo Yan's head, which is more than two meters.
Zhuo Yan: ...
This year, Cong Lu and Qiao will be responsible for drying the meat. Zhuo Yan will take six Peacocks and two orcs, Shitou, Amanda En, and A Yin, to be responsible for this large ramie field.
Ramie needs to be cut about ten centimeters above the root. It is a rod-shaped plant. Cut off their leaves and only the rod is needed. They made bone knives and sickles and tied them tightly with leather to wooden sticks to facilitate harvesting. Each person divided a piece into pieces, cut them off, tied them into bundles and threw them into bundles on the ground.
Zhuo Yan asked Kong Yue to be responsible for carrying it, "You are still young, don't be too tired to grow taller."
"Then you can move it too." Shitou said to Zhuo Yan.
Zhuo Yan: ...He is over 1.8 meters tall, so he is not small.
"Haha, we have learned how to cut. You two can move it." Aman said.
Zhuo Yan knew that his friend wanted to make it easier for him. It was really tiring to bend down to cut ramie, but he was not a fool, so he wanted to do it with everyone. But after working for a while, Zhuo Yan felt something was wrong and wanted to vomit -
he seemed to be really made of paper.
No, just this amount of work? ? ? That won't work?
Zhuo Yan became stubborn, but Ah Yin saw something was wrong with his brother, so he ran over and said, "You look so bad. Go and sit aside. I'll move in a while. I might have to carry something." "
I'm okay -"
"Zhuo Yan, you can't do it." Shitou A'man also ran over. Zhuo Yan's mouth turned a little white, and A Yin even forced his brother to sit on the edge of the field.
Shitou told Xiaoyue, "You run errands, go to the river to get some hot water, ask Qiao for it."
"I know Brother Shitou." Kong Yue turned into a peacock and flew over. After a while, she was hurriedly carrying a cup of water with her bare buttocks. Running back.
Zhuo Yan: I'm so embarrassed.
"Thank you Xiaoyue."
"You're welcome, Brother Zhuo Yan, how are you now?" Kong Yue got dressed.
Zhuo Yan drank a few sips of hot water and felt better after sitting here for a while. "Much better." He saw that everyone was worried about him.
Ah Yin still had worries in his eyes. Zhuo Yan nodded and said that I would stop being stubborn after a rest. Ah Yin breathed a sigh of relief, and everyone got busy again. Zhuo Yan felt embarrassed sitting on the ground. He didn't understand why his physical strength suddenly dropped. Was he sick?
But I haven't felt any discomfort recently.
Zhuo Yan felt much better after resting and helped to work together. As soon as he stood up, everyone looked at him, especially A Yin, who ran over to find him.
"...I'm really well. Don't worry. If I feel uncomfortable, I will definitely sit down and rest."
"Brother, you must take care of yourself." A Yin's eyes were filled with worry and pity.
Zhuo Yan was stabbed in the heart and agreed seriously.
If he were gone, Ah Yin would really die.
After that, when he was working, he would receive attention from everyone from time to time. Zhuo Yan: ...so that he almost felt like he was in the same boat.
But it's really no problem.
Zhuo Yan found that he had underestimated the Peacock Five before. The five were still very powerful, but their appearance created an image of "I'm lazy" and "I don't like to work". Their skin was white and delicate. They did it for two consecutive times. Although the temperature is not very high in autumn, these people have not changed at all.
The stone, on the other hand, has almost turned into a caramel stone.
Bundles of ramie were placed on the ground, leaving a small handful. Zhuo Yan was afraid that the ramie would freeze to death in the winter and would not grow a second crop. The remaining ramie would have to wait until it blooms and bears fruit to collect seeds, and then plant it next year.
The collected ramie poles were moved to the river to start processing.
After harvesting the ramie, Ah Yin and Da En went hunting. The work after that was delicate and did not require much effort.
Only the outer skin of the ramie rod is needed, and the remaining rod is dried in the sun and used for burning. After the outer skin peels off, it needs to be soaked overnight. A large pool has been built not far from the riverside at the entrance of the factory. It is now used for soaking the skin, and then the fiber of the ramie skin is obtained.
Several people sat on small stools and began to smooth out the leather fibers. Zhuo Yan was a little unskilled at first, but the six peacocks heard Zhuo Yan tell them which part they wanted, and they succeeded after just one try.
Zhuo Yan: "..."
I was born to be a clothes expert.
After that comes the troublesome and trivial preliminary work, taking out the fiber and drying it without drying it too much. You need to watch it get wet from time to time. After drying, you have to roll the twine, then form it into a ball, and finally arrange the warp.
The warp threads must be denser and more prepared, and the later weaving will be faster.
So the orcs from the tribe came over to see what the clothes were, and saw Zhuo Yan and the Peacock tribe sitting by the empty river, stroking the grass.
I looked again in two days, and the thread was getting tangled again.
"Zhuo Yan said it's called twine. It's so thin, even thinner than a grass stalk.", "Really, I went over to see and there were so many dried out threads that I had to twist them all into a ball of thread.", "It's so troublesome. .", "It makes my eyes hurt.", "It's better to show off the meat."
They were very skilled at drying the meat, so they didn't need to use their hands. The hemp silk was so thin that they had to twist two strands into one, and some even had three strands to make one. Zhuo Yan told them that the warp threads should be of equal thickness, but they couldn't understand. .
"I went to see it, and the Peacock Six did a good job.", "...Then they are really good at this.", "I wasn't convinced before, but we sub-orcs can do it too, but I sat there and did it for a while.
" My fingers hurt a little from rubbing them. It's so boring."
"Actually, it doesn't hurt that much. It's just so boring. I sat there for a long time wrapping a thread the size of my fist. " Tuan, Zhuo Yan said that this is not finished yet, what
kind of warp thread should I make and then wound? ""Yes, yes, I went there too. I can learn it by learning, but after a long time, the thread I wound is not as thin and thick as the ones made by Peacock and others. , the thick ones and the thin ones are still broken."
"Then let's go to Peacock."
The orcs ran quickly at first, mainly because they were curious about how to use the wooden chicken, but they went to dry the ramie poles every few days. Drying the ramie threads, and still winding the warp threads every few days...
it's a very thin job that requires patience, and the orcs really can't sit still.
Finally, the warp is wrapped. This step is to brush the oar. Ramie cloth is also called linen cloth. It makes clothes cool and breathable. After brushing the oar and washing the cloth several times after weaving, it is very soft and wear-resistant.
To brush the paddle, you need rice slurry, which means grinding rice into rice water and burning it into a paste. There was no rice here, so Zhuo Yan thought of two alternatives, one was rhubarb rice paddle, and the other was dudu fruit paddle, and they happened to have both.
Then try them all.
There is not much material used to brush the oar. After boiling two pots of oar, the brush is stained and evenly brushed through the entangled warp. After brushing the sizing, it can be put on the loom.
"I can finally knit."
It's already late autumn at this point.
The meat drying in the kiln in front has been completed a few days ago. During the drying time, the sub-orcs were not idle and began to harvest the crops in the field. So in the past few days, some orcs took time out of their busy schedule to dig a hole for storing food. .
There was so much food this year that the cave was full.
Then we will have to burn charcoal.
"Brother Zhuo Yan, how are you doing here?" Xiao Xian was free that day and ran to see what was going on. When he ran far away, he saw the wooden chicken moving through the transparent window!
! ! !
"The wooden chicken is moving!"
Xiao Xian turned around and ran away excitedly. He wanted to tell the others that the wooden chicken made by Brother Zhuo Yan could really move, and this time it wasn't just tangled.
After a while, small groups of three or three came around Xiao Xian. They all carried rattan baskets and were going to pick Dudu fruits. When they heard Xiao Xian's shout, they hurriedly came to see the wooden chicken first.
Separated by the light green glass, there were six peacocks inside, but there were two people sitting in front of the wooden rooster, namely Kong Xingxing and Kong Huo. Their hair was tied up, and the light shone in, and their skin shone white. Sitting there was a rooster. The hand pulls, the foot steps again, the other hand throws something over, and the other hand cooperates and pulls again.
I can't even understand it, and why is it so flexible?
Youya orc man gestured, "I feel like my hands and feet are not working properly."
"Let's go in and have a look?"
"Okay."
Zhuo Yan once again lamented that the Kong Xingxing clan was really good at weaving. He praised him again and again. It was true. As a result, the six peacocks heard the compliment and they were so excited to weave. They didn't look at Kong Xingxing and Kong Huo because one of them was the clan leader and the oldest, so they had the upper hand. The other four people lined up to wait and two of them were tired. It's their turn.
"Why can't we make more looms?", "Yes, Zhuo Yan, the place here is obviously very big."
Zhuo Yan: "Next year, it's too late this year."
"Okay."
"Chief, you have been knitting for a while. Are you tired? Do you want to take a break? "
Kong Xingxing is in high spirits. He has never used a loom before. He used to make skirts by rubbing tree bark and vines one by one. He had no idea that there was such a way. After just a while, there was such a large piece of cloth.
Zhuo Yan said this was called cloth, and he couldn't wait to use it to make clothes.
"Brother Zhuo Yan!"
Xiao Xian's voice.
Zhuo Yan looked through the glass and saw that in addition to Xiao Xian, he also brought many sub-orcs. He couldn't help but waved them in, "It just so happens that we are weaving today. You have always wanted to see how it is weaved. Let's see now."
There were still piles in the corner . There are four baskets of ramie thread, and there is a warp rack against the wall. When the weaving is finished, the warp is wound again.
The sub-orcs gathered around, but they didn't dare to get too close for fear of disturbing the two of them from their work. They looked at it for a while and were dazzled. They all praised you for what you did and where you put your hands and feet.
If they were on the top of Featherman Mountain, Kong Xingxing would ignore them. After all, they were in Leopard Man territory. Kong Xingxing was a little more polite, stood up, and said, "Come and try."
The frightened sub-orc man waved his hands repeatedly.
Zhuo Yan: ...Kong Xingxing really wanted the curious sub-orcs to try it, but because Kong Xingxing had a cold appearance and had been arrogant and arrogant since he was a child, even though he restrained himself, he still took it with him. Some.
The tribe orcs must have misunderstood and thought Kong Xingxing was unhappy.
"Boss Kong is sincere in asking you to try it. If you try it, Boss Kong will teach you." Zhuo Yan said with a smile.
Kong Xingxing:? He still wants to teach?
"Well, I'll teach you."
The sub-orc thought that he might have misunderstood. The stone companion Kong Xingren might have spoken like this, but he didn't mean to make fun of his anger, so he sat down and gave it a try, and then messed around and tossed it. The cloth woven by Xingxing is very dense and even, but the one he weaves has holes, which is really ugly in comparison.
"I won't weave anymore. Boss Kong's cloth doesn't look good when I weave it."
Kong Xingxing kept holding back his temper, thinking, you just know, what a perfect piece of cloth, ruined!
Later, Kong Xingxing stopped weaving, and the others in Peacock took over their seats one after another. When the sub-orcs left, the four Peacocks demolished the leader of their clan.
"As the patriarch, you first told me to let others try it.", "It's not Zhuo Yan's suggestion.", "Chief, you were so generous just now that your teeth could break.", "Haha, Kong Xingxing has been like this since he was a child. They all care about perfection. He will definitely not be happy to make clothes from this piece of cloth. He will weave it himself again." "After all, our clan leader will be more generous now." "In the past, he would have scolded the four of us to death. "
Hahahaha, the patriarch's temper has improved."
"It's okay, Kong Xingxing, you are still the patriarch among the five of us."
Zhuo Yan never interfered in the internal 'conversation' of Peacock. In fact, it was uncomfortable for the six Peacocks. They were all arrogant, and he had been worried before, trying to take care of the six people's self-esteem as much as possible.
Their clan leader was very wise. He arranged the Stone Peacock Clan in the back mountain, and then slowly worked together to make the Peacock Clan show that they "didn't eat soft food for nothing" and that they also contributed hard and were sincerely respected by the clan members.
But there will always be friction in some small things, living habits, and language.
As a result, the four Peacocks were able to laugh and joke about Kong Xingxing, which was a relief.
Kong Yue looked at his brother worriedly. Kong Xingxing snorted coldly, knowing that the four of them took the initiative to scold him, so he could not hold back his anger, "You four, I don't even bother to scold you!"
"I'm not that petty."
Kong Yue didn't believe it.
Kong Xingxing:......
He's really not angry. What's there to be angry about - well, the piece of cloth was messed up and not perfect. He was a little uncomfortable just now, but it's gone now, and he doesn't do anything with that piece of cloth. Just knit the clothes again.
...actually it works too. Kong Xingxing thought of the big guy in his family. Those were the first ones he had knitted by himself. He wanted to make clothes for the big guy, which would definitely look good.
"You get up, let me knit?"
Kong Lu: "I've knitted everything, you still want it? This piece is not knitted yet."
"Yes, why not? I knitted the bottom and the beginning!"
Peacock Four People were shocked. Kong Xingxing was really not angry. He was in a daze. The problems he had in the mountains of the Feathered People were cured by the Leopard People?
Zhuo Yan saw that the six peacocks were proficient and had no problem, "I will pick Dudu fruits with Shitou and the others tomorrow, and I will leave this place to you."
After this time, he felt that even if the tribe orcs came to see what was new, the six people They can also live in peace.
It was cold in late autumn, and there was a thin piece of fur on the straw mat.
For the past month and a half, Zhuo Yan and A Yin have been working separately. Every day has been hard work. Now they are finally getting better and can breathe a sigh of relief. Of course, the charcoal has not been burned, the Dudu fruit has not been picked, and there are still some scattered tasks, such as millet. Peel the seeds and dry them in the sun.
Someone in the tribe likes to eat this and wants to dry part of it at noon and save some for winter. Some tribesmen are not in a hurry and save all the food for next spring. Anyway, I eat too much now.
"I have nothing to do tomorrow. Brother, I will go pick Dudu fruits with you. I can carry them." Ah Yin said.
Zhuo Yan knew that A Yin was afraid that he would be too tired, and that he was not comfortable working before, which really scared A Yin.
"Okay."
Zhuo Yan didn't refuse.
The two of them went to bed early that night. Early the next morning, Ah Yin got up to live, roasted a few potatoes, cut a piece of bacon, wrapped it in leaves and put it into a backpack, which he carried on his back.
Zhuo Yan prepared a meal for Da Fu and Da Ming.
Great fortune and great destiny - Yazhu father and son.
Zhuo Yan and A Yin went down early and waited for a while at the bottom of the slope. Xiao Xian, A Tou, Qiao, and A Da came out. The sound of Amanda's stone talking could also be heard by the river in the back mountain. The group met.
"Wait for me - wait for me -"
Ah Hui ran out frantically carrying the rattan basket on his back.
The few people had no choice but to wait where they were. Ah Hui ran over, out of breath. He first looked at Ah Tou and then had an angry expression on his face. Ever since Ah Hui came back and knew that Ah Tou would move to his friend's cave in autumn, Ah Hui had been like this.
Zhuo Yan heard from Xiao Xian - since A Man moved to Houshan, he was far away from the gossip network inside, and he didn't have as much information as Xiao Xian. Xiao Xian said that Ah Hui later went to find Uncle A He. Who knew that Uncle A He was not willing to dig holes with Ah Hui!
Uncle Ah He's original words were: You? Ah Hui, you are too young.
Ah Hui was quite confident when he went there. He felt that he was young, just a few years old, and he and Uncle A He would definitely be willing to live together without a partner. After all, he was young, strong, and could hunt.
Unexpectedly, I was rejected because of my young age. Ah Hui quickly said that he didn't think Uncle A He was too old.
Who knew that Uncle Ahe said: Haha, kid, I don't want to live with the orcs anymore. My life is very good now. There is food in the cave. I can raise the two cubs. The old cave is in the tribe. As long as the door is thicker in winter. It can provide protection, and the eldest son will be able to hunt in a few years...
In short, Uncle Ahe doesn't want to partner with the orcs and live in the same cave.
It was different in the past. The boss would starve to death if he didn't mate with the orcs. He couldn't eat mud beans every day. He was so thin from hunger that his son couldn't protect him. It was better to rely on the orcs to raise him. The richer meat could be taken to the big cave. Give it to the eldest son so that both father and son can survive.
At this time -
Ah Tou was glared at by Ah Hui, and he said triumphantly: "Uncle Ah He rejected you and is not willing to live in a hole with you. What do you think I am doing? It's not me who rejected you."
"You . He also said that you stayed to pursue Xue without telling me. "
Xue is the only single sub-orc in the tribe besides Xiao Xian, and he is the same age as this group of young orcs. He also has a hole and is relatively slender and tall. female.
"If I told you, there would be one more person chasing snow with me." Ah Tou was still very witty, "Among us, you and I, Yu..." counted a few names.
"Of course I have a better chance of winning."
Ah Hui said: "Bah!" He
almost blurted out that Gu Tian, ââthe orc son of Furukawa, was also very powerful, but he didn't say anything when he thought that Ah Yin was here, and after thinking about it, Gu Tian also I can't stand the snow.
Because Xue is too thin and not strong at all.
A few people were talking and walking away. Ah Tou and Ah Hui were arguing about their partners. In the end, of course Ah Hui lost because he didn't have a partner. hateful.
"Do you want to hold a ceremony?" Zhuo Yan asked.
Ah Tou: "No, Xue and I have been together for a few years, and she has the same idea."
After hearing this, Ah Yin ran to her brother, "We haven't held the ceremony yet, brother."
"...That's right." Zhuo Yan didn't He cared about the ceremony, "I proposed to you at Xuelu last year." But he saw that Ah Yin was looking forward to it and especially wanted the ceremony, "Then... how about we have one?"
Ah Yin's eyes lit up.
Seeing this, Zhuo Yan was also looking forward to it, "Don't worry-" He saw that A Yin was nervous, and he must be afraid of him but unwilling, so he immediately added: "How about the first snow event in winter?"
"!!! "Okay, brother!" If Ah Yin were in animal form, his tail could be rolled up and shake out.
A Yin turned to look at A Tou, A Hui, Da En, A Da and the others, and invited them to hunt with him in a few days, and they readily agreed.
"Congratulations." "Bless you Zhuo Yan and Ah Yin."
Zhuo Yan smiled and said: "Thank you, thank you, thank you all."
While Ah Hui agreed to go hunting with Ah Yin, he felt uncomfortable at the same time. Why did he not have a partner? Now Ah He is the only one in the tribe. Uncle and...Xiao Xian? !
"What do you think I'm doing? I won't marry you." Xiao Xian said.
Ah Tou immediately became angry, "Ah Hui, I'm warning you not to take advantage of my brother."
"Why, I'm not bad at hunting."
"I don't like you." Xiao Xian said seriously.
Ah Hui was frustrated and said, "Okay." Are you looking for Uncle Ah He again?
...
After picking the Dudu fruits, Ah Yin carried them back and forth twice before transporting them. In the tribe, Zhuo Yan began to burn charcoal with the tribe, and the ramie stalks could be taken home in batches after they were dried. A Yin and his friends went out hunting these days.
The weather was getting colder day by day, and Zhuo Yan finally put on his homemade leather boots.
When he woke up early and discovered ice crystals on the leaves of his bubble tree, Zhuo Yan knew that the first snow of winter was coming soon, and A Yin had already been out for two days.
Zhuo Yan planned to go to the textile factory to have a look. Kong Huo, Kong Lu, and Kong Yue were working there and greeted each other. Zhuo Yan said, "It's going to snow here soon. If it gets cold, No need to do it yet. "
Anyway, everyone was wearing leather skirts before, so there was no rush to wear them.
Kong Huo said: "How long will it snow? Is ten days enough?"
"Didn't Shitou start a chat with you?"
Kong Lu smiled and said, "I told you, Kong Huo just doesn't believe it."
"What Shitou said is true, I promise." Zhuo Yan smiled.
Kong Huo was immediately frightened. Kong Yue said: "Brother Shitou has prepared a lot of skins for us."
Shitou's father and mother brought some skins over, and the clan also gave skins to the six Peacocks.
Zhuo Yan asked before if it was enough. Shitou said that each person had two thick skins and prepared three more. After burning charcoal a few days ago, Shitou also picked up a lot. Zhuo Yan said at this time: "If you are too cold, you can sleep on the same bed. Also, don't let the cold air breathe. Burning charcoal will produce a toxic gas, so you need to ventilate it from time to time."
The peacock cave door is small and the wooden door is compact. There was also a gap in the door, about ten centimeters. Zhuo Yan was afraid that they would be too cold, so he covered it with leather and emphasized it again.
"I understand, Brother Zhuo Yan." Kong Yue nodded seriously.
Zhuo Yan saw everyone working and thought about going out to play with Shitou Aman. When he left the textile factory, he was faced with a cold wind and couldn't help but shiver. "It's quite warm inside the house."
In the evening, the sky was sporadic. It snowed. The snowflakes were very small and dissipated when they fell on the ground.
Before Ah Yin came back, Zhuo Yan finished feeding Dafu and Da Ming and his son, closed the wooden door and stood at the door for a while. Late at night, he vaguely heard howling, and when he opened his eyes, he saw a pig howling at home.
"Brother, don't be afraid, it's me, Ah Yin."
Zhuo Yan heard the voice coming from the door and breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that he was back.
As soon as he opened the door, Ah Yin stood outside, with a layer of snow on his head and shoulders, shaking off the snow. Under his feet was the huge prey. It was so dark that Zhuo Yan couldn't see it clearly. "Bring it back alone." "
No, Dan and the others brought it back for me. It's too late today. We'll have to go to the square for the ceremony tomorrow." After finishing speaking, A Yin said, "Brother, it's snowing.
"
Zhuo Yan had just woken up and his brain was still a little sluggish, so he asked Ah Yin to come in first. After a while, he came to his senses. The two of them were at Snow Deer last year, and it was covered with snow. He and Ah Yin were witnessed by Daya A Tou. He thought they were getting married. .
And it's snowing, and there's a ceremony to be held tomorrow. Ah Yin felt that she really became a partner with him.
"Go to sleep now. Get some rest. Tomorrow we will go to the clan leader and ask him to witness for us." Zhuo Yan couldn't help but feel happy.
Ah Yin hummed, smiled silly, and fell asleep holding her brother in her arms. He had already taken a shower when he came back.
Early the next morning, Zhuo Yan was woken up by Dafu Daming at home, and then he remembered the prey that A Yin had sent back last night. Don't let the father and son chew it. When he opened the door and took a look -
they were stacked together. There are many horned sheep and sheep, all of which look tender.
Ah Yin woke up and said happily: "Brother, we have red chili fruits and Sichuan peppercorns. Didn't you say that roast mutton is delicious before? We caught a lot of sheep and we can eat roast mutton today."
Other orcs were doing it. Going out to hunt during the ceremony, and catching large and rare prey will prove that the orcs are powerful, and it is a project to show the power of the orcs.
As for Ah Yin, my brother likes to eat mutton, please eat more.
Zhuo Yan: I was so moved that I was drooling a little bit.
"Ah Yin, Ah Yin, do you want to go to the square -"
"Can I help you carry the sheep?"
Ah Hui and Ah Tou's voice came down the slope, and the two of them came to help so early in the morning. Ah Yin looked at his brother, Zhuo Yan wiped away the tears that were not at the corner of his mouth, his eyes were full of happiness, and he nodded.
"Yes!" Ah Yin shouted.
Zhuo Yan: "I'm going to pack the seasoning box, let's go together."
On this day, there was a layer of white snow on the ground in the tribe. The young orc carried the sheep and went into the tribe. Zhuo Yan finished scrubbing and cleaning, and did not dress up too much. ââWearing the same clothes as usual, but with a happy face, carrying a spice box, and following behind.
His friends have arrived.
The peacocks turned into birds and flew over. Shitou and Kong Xingxing walked at the back holding the egg. Kong Xingxing wrapped himself in a leather cloak and held the egg cub in his arms. He couldn't help muttering: It's already snowing for the winter. What are you doing? It hasn't broken out of its shell yet.
Dan Zai was quiet.
When we arrived at the square, someone lit a bonfire, and the patriarch and uncle also came out. Many people came one after another to help separate the sheep. After a while, almost everyone came. Everyone also brought food from their homes. Food came over.
"There are so many sheep.", "Ah Yin caught them, right?", "It seems enough to eat, I also brought potatoes.", "Hahaha, I caught the sheep."
As soon as Maha finished laughing, Da Ya hummed. He said in a loud voice: "Zhuo Yan must love to eat sheep, so Ah Yin went to catch them. If we are partners, they can eat and catch whatever they want. It's not a fighting competition."
Ma Ha, who has no partner:... can't laugh anymore .
However, what this Big Ya said was unpleasant, but it seemed to be right, but he also wanted the tribal orcs to see how powerful he was...
There were chirping peacocks flying in the sky. Maha was still wondering what he would be hunting if he had a mate.
Kong Lu couldn't stand it anymore, so he turned into a human form and said, "Maha, you are so powerful. It's not easy. You can catch them all."
"That's right!" Maha suddenly realized, and when he saw it, it was Kong Lu said, "You are all here? When did you come?"
"When you were thinking about a problem - Ah Zhi, Ah Zhi, I have to change into a bird shape, it's too cold." Kong Lu turned into a bird shape again .
Maha waved his arm and said loudly to his new peacock friends: "Come with me, there is a fire here, it will be warmer, start turning it on..."
The orcs who were helping got out of the way for Maha. a location.
The peacocks just got a little cold feet when they landed here. Maha saw the five people moving their feet, and it took him a while to realize, "I'm going to find a wooden board for you."
...
"Brother Zhuo Yan! Why aren't you dressed up today?"
"I am, I'm still wearing it after cleaning. " Got a new leather." Zhuo Yan was beaming, "Doesn't it look good?"
Shitou Aman said. Qiao said: "Zhuo Yan looks so pretty when he smiles."
"That's true." Xiao Xian was happy and thought it was okay not to dress up. Anyway, as long as Brother Zhuo Yan is happy, that's fine.
Soon the square became lively, bonfires were set up everywhere, and the air was filled with the smell of fat from roasting the whole lamb - it was just roasting.
Zhuo Yan and A Yin stood together, facing the clan leader.
He had seen the patriarch perform a marriage ceremony for Qiao and Ada, and thought it was just a matter of presiding over and saying blessings. But when the patriarch stared into their eyes, there were originally noisy sounds of happy laughter, voices, and discussions about mutton from the outside world. Slowly come to stillness.
In a very strange and wonderful state.
He saw the river, the alternation of the sun, moon and stars, a large flourishing tree of life, and the stars in the river... This scene was very familiar. He seemed to have been here when Adagio got married.
There were three little dumplings lying on the lush branches. When he looked over, the three stars flew into his body like falling stars.
Ah Yin was in the shape of an animal, extremely huge, even bigger than he was now. He walked over to him, prostrated on the ground, and asked him to come up and sit down. Zhuo Yan sat down and felt the gentle wind in front of him. At this moment, he turned into a leopard. He was A Yin, and A Yin was like him. They became one -
that kind of fusion of souls, so wonderful.
With a slight chill between his brows, Zhuo Yan was brought back to reality. The patriarch looked at him lovingly. He reached out to touch his brows, but stopped again.
"Bless you."
"Thank you, patriarch." Zhuo Yan said.
Ah Yin was also very happy.
The ceremony was completed, and the mutton smelled delicious and oily.
Qiao and Aman asked him to eat mutton. Zhuo Yan was still in a trance, because just after coming back from that state, he saw some light on Aman and Qiao, just like he saw light scattered on him from the tree.
"...Are you two pregnant with a cub?" Zhuo Yan asked.
Aman, Qiao: "Huh?!"
The clan leader not far away also heard it and looked at Zhuo Yan's back in surprise. Zhuo Yan could actually go to the Tree of Life...see the falling of life...
Chapter 89
When Aman and Qiao heard this, their faces were shocked. They both looked down at their stomachs, then suddenly looked at Zhuo Yan, saying in unison: "How do you know?"
"I -" Zhuo Yan didn't know what he just saw. Will he be burned to death in that scene? There are no sacrifices among the four grassland tribes, and the mythology is not very strong - they are all short stories passed down orally. After careful consideration, Zhuo Yan still decided to tell the truth, "I was friends with A Yin just now and saw a big tree. There are many bright spots, and there are bright spots in your belly."
"Qiao, didn't you see the last time you and Ada got married?"
Qiao shook his head happily, "I saw the big tree you mentioned. , did you really see a light spot in my belly?"
"Yes." Zhuo Yan looked at Aman again, "You are too."
This is a big surprise for her, since she and Ada got married. After getting married, I actually really want a little cub. Although the life of two people in a cave is sweet and happy, it can also be boring sometimes.
Everyone in the tribe said that it was difficult to conceive cubs. Only strong orcs and sub-orcs could conceive cubs. Ada and she were both strong and strong, so they just had to wait a little longer.
finally!
It's finally here.
Qiao Kong's eyes were all bright. Zhuo Yan was a little scared when he saw them. Don't think that the light spots were just light spots, which made Qiao Kong happy. He couldn't help but said hurriedly: "I only saw bright lights. Maybe it wasn't -"
"That's right. Brother, that is the tree of life." Ah Yin said at this time. He also saw his brother, "I saw it before when the white-haired boy was about to die."
At some point, Ada also gathered around and heard them talking about the 'Tree of Life'. Ada said, "Yes. "My grandma once saw the Tree of Life when she was seriously injured. But why do you suddenly say this?"
"Ada." Joe held Ada's hand, his eyes bright. Happy face. Ada was still confused for a moment, not understanding why her partner suddenly became softer, but he also had the same smile on his face, "What's wrong?"
"We are going to have cubs," Joe said.
Ada was stunned for a moment, and hugged Qiao the next second.
"Really? That's great, Joe!"
One family was happy and the other was happy, but in the end they were happy. Aman was a little confused after hearing that he had a cub, and kept mumbling about how he could get pregnant so quickly, but he found Dahn who was roasting lamb and muttered that he should have a cub.
Dan: "Aman, don't you want cubs?" He saw it.
"No, I just didn't think about it so soon. It's hard to conceive in the tribe. I still want to be with you more, but now I'm pregnant with a cub, which is a bit of a loss."
Dan laughed, it turned out to be because of this.
"You will definitely like the cub."
"Of course, this is our cub!" Aman affirmed, and then looked at Dan, "Did you misunderstand me just now and think I don't want the cub? "
No, I was just not very happy to see you, but now you are happy."
"Hehe."
The good news about Qiao and Aman soon became known to everyone who was eating roast sheep. Zhuo Yan was still immersed in the three light spots he saw - no, maybe he saw it wrong, maybe there were not three, no, were there really three?
...What should I do?
"Brother, aren't you happy?"
"I... am... happy..." Zhuo Yan came back from his trance and saw A Yin looking at him happily and worriedly, so Zhuo Yan put his 'troubles' aside In the back of his mind, the main thing was that even if it was true, there was nothing he could do.
We can only take one step at a time.
As soon as his mentality changed, he immediately became happy, "Let's go for a walk and eat roasted lamb."
"Okay, brother, I'll roast the tenderest one for you."
"I want more chili noodles!"
"Okay!"
Several people gathered around the fire to eat roasted lamb. , Aman Qiao's good news spread throughout the world. After everyone congratulated Zhuoyan Ayin, they also congratulated Qiao and Aman. Xiaoxian picked up the barbecue skewers and said, "Great, you have cubs. Are they going to call me uncle?"
"Yes." Zhuo Yan nodded.
Xiao Xian was so happy.
Shitou asked Aman and Qiao when they would have cubs, "It's been more than a year since my cubs hatched." Every time he was worried, Xingxing would say that the longer the Feather Tribe cubs stayed in their shells, the more likely they would be. Come out stronger and stronger.
But it's been more than a year.
Aman and Qiao looked at Zhuo Yan. Zhuo Yan: ...No, my eyes are not B-ultrasound!
"Are you feeling uncomfortable?" Zhuo Yan thought about it carefully, "I wasn't feeling well some time ago..."
"Hey, Zhuo Yan, do you have a cub too!" Aman was shocked.
Zhuo Yan: "Didn't I just tell you?" As if he didn't, he blurted out the three bright lights, "I seem to have cubs too."
Everyone:! ! !
After the chatter was over and the topic of when she got pregnant came up, Qiao said, "I heard what Zhuo Yan said, did it happen after returning from Snow Deer Mountain?"
"I knew it!"
Everyone looked at Zhuo Yan. , with curiosity on his face, what do you know?
Zhuo Yan said with mixed emotions: "I think there's something wrong with the water in the hot spring pool."
"What's wrong..." Aman suddenly understood, "The three of us are pregnant with cubs, can the hot spring water help people conceive cubs?" "
Zhuo Yan: "I don't know. Anyway, the water is soaking. "It takes a long time to make a fire. It's really not right."
Qiao and Aman saw the meaning of Zhuo Yan's unfinished words. When they recalled that night, they blushed a little, as if. Xiao Xian was very curious and asked what was in the water? Shitou also had some ideas, but when he thought that Xingxing and he couldn't go, and they already had Egg Cubs, it didn't matter. If they didn't go, they wouldn't go. It didn't matter.
"You should wait until you have a partner before you go with your partner." Zhuo Yan told Xiao Xian, he was afraid that there was something wrong with the hot spring water, and it would not be good for Xiao Xian to soak alone and get heart-burning and scratch his lungs.
Even Ada and Daan joined in the conversation.
"There are a lot of snow deer in Snow Deer Mountain.", "Yes, there are really many, many, many of these deer."
There are many deer in Snow Deer Mountain. Apart from being unpalatable, they eat grass and there is no natural danger. However, they do reproduce in large numbers. Is there still a lot of them? The effect of hot springs?
Other sub-orcs heard their chat, asked, and several people explained. Finally, it was spread that the entire tribe knew that there were several warm pools in Snow Deer Mountain. After the orcs and sub-orcs soaked in them, it was easy for the orcs to conceive cubs, because Zhuo Yan, Qiao, and Aman are all pregnant with cubs.
In the past, in the tribe, it took two or three years to hear the sounds of cubs sucking milk, but now three sub-orcs are pregnant with cubs...
"Is it true?", "I want to go too.", "Me too.", "Where is the Snow Deer Mountain?", "It seems to be near the werewolf territory.", "I'll ask Zhuo Yan and the others, we can go there when the spring is free next year.", "Okay."
You A large number of cubs indicates the prosperity of the tribe in the future.
The clan leader's eyebrows stretched, he held Asu's hand, and looked at some young clansmen beside the bonfire not far away.
"Asu, Zhuo Yan can see the Tree of Life."
The uncle looked at the clan leader with shock in his eyes. The clan leader rarely smiled and nodded. He had some considerations before, but now he is more certain that Zhuo Yan is the next clan leader of the Leopard People and will lead the Leopard People tribe to a better day.
"I want to choose a good time and give it to Zhuo Yan..."
The uncle also laughed, "Okay, so you can take care of yourself."
On this day, everyone in the tribal square was full of joy and smiles. Throughout the winter The food preparations are sufficient, and now they are eating delicious roast mutton. After hearing that the snow mountain hot springs can make it easier for orcs to conceive cubs, everyone feels at ease, relaxed, and full of expectations for the future.
After finishing the roast sheep, it began to snow, and everyone started to pack up.
"See you in the spring."
"See you in the spring."
Zhuo Yan and A Yin returned hand in hand with a peacock flying low above their heads. Kong Xingxing was wearing a big cloak and holding the egg cub in one hand. He put the cloak on the stone shoulder and held it in his arms. Stone, the two of them walked back crookedly.
"No, you can't cover it all like this."
"I'm not afraid of the cold."
"But I'm taller. Isn't it uncomfortable for you to walk?"
"Big - big head!" Kong Xingxing was furious.
The five peacock wings above the head flapped very fast, as if running quickly. When Shitou heard Xingxing calling him loudly, he smiled happily and said, "Xingxing, I'll hold you and you hold Danzai. Go back quickly like this."
"Humph!" Boss Kong was still arrogant.
Shitou leaned over and kissed Xingxing's cheek and said, "Good Xingxing, please."
"That's okay. In fact, I'm not shorter than you, it's just that I'm thinner and you look a little taller..."
"Yes, you That's right."
Zhuo Yan and A Yin held hands and looked at each other. Zhuo Yan laughed silently. Boss Kong was quite concerned about face. What's the point of being embarrassed? Zhuo Yan looked back secretly and whispered to A Yin: "The stone seems to be two or three centimeters taller than Boss Kong."
"Boss Kong, Zhuo Yan said that the stone is two or three centimeters taller than you." Aman heard what he said loudly, and Dan had turned into an animal shape. Aman Jumping on Dahn, the two complained and ran away quickly.
Zhuo Yan: ...
grinded his teeth and threatened: "Aman, wait until the snow calms down a little, and I'll go to your house as a guest!"
"Hahahahahaha."
Kong Xingxing's eyes behind him were very hot. Zhuo Yan: ...
A Yin turned into a beast shape, Zhuo Yan quickly fled the scene, leaving only Zhuo Yan's voice in the cold snowy scene: "Aman is talking nonsense, I will treat you to dinner next year~~~"
"Huh!" Kong Xingxing sneered, but there was no life in his eyes.
Everyone knew this. Shitou held Xingxing's shoulders with one hand, and the two of them got into the same skin, leaving a series of intimate footprints in the snow. Shitou said: "The snow season in our tribe is very long. In the past, my father and mother had nothing to do in the winter, so they would mate..."
Kong Xingxing looked at the big man.
Shitou blinked.
Hey hey hey.
Kong Xingxing: He seems to like the Leopard Tribe a little bit.
Zhuo Yan and A Yin returned to the cave and packed a large basket full of haggis and mutton for Yazhu. Now that it is snowy and cold, it can be stored for a long time. If you mix some roots every day, you can eat it for several days.
"Let's get married today, and we'll have a banquet for Dafu Daming."
"Okay." The smile on Ah Yin's face never stopped today.
Zhuo Yan never thought that the wedding ceremony would make Ah Yin so happy. He was also infected. Marrying the person you like is very happy.
"Together!"
"Okay."
The two of them were sweet, and mixed some pig food together. The whole cave was now blessed by the father and son. Zhuo Yan added the ingredients and filled the rice. He was in a good mood and watched the father and son chatting. Zhuo Yan was also smiling while eating.
He also praised: "You eat well."
Da Ming was frightened and stopped.
Zhuo Yan smiled and said: "Eat, eat~"
Ah Yin blocked the entrance of the cave with wooden boards and hay, and the snow became heavier and heavier.
The sky was gray, so Ah Yin went to the river to fill the stone pots and barrels with water. Zhuo Yan put the things away, briefly cleaned them, lit firewood in the cave for lighting, and closed the cave door when Ah Yin came back.
After a busy year, winter is also a time for rest.
The two of them sat on the stone bed. They felt a little shy after sitting, and then they hugged and kissed each other.
It was obviously cold wind and heavy snow outside, but the temperature in the cave was heating up rapidly - those two firewoods couldn't make Zhuo Yan blush and make his heart beat a little hot. A Yin's eyes were shining, and so was Zhuo Yan.
"Can we do it?"
Ah Yin didn't know, "Is Zaizai okay?"
"How about taking your time? You have to go through the bridal chamber to get married."
Ah Yin didn't understand what the bridal chamber meant, but he could understand the look in his brother's eyes. They are all desires, so just take your time. Zhuo Yan later regretted saying the words "take your time", which prolonged the feeling of pleasure a lot, gradually accumulated, and became a bit gentle and gentle.
I don't know if they are partners, but this night is different from before.
It feels like a fusion of souls.
While Ah Yin went to heat the hot water and Zhuo Yan did the cleaning, he touched his belly, because when he was not in a concave shape, he did not have six-pack abs, and of course he did not have a belly, it was just flat. He was too busy some time ago, so he didn't have a belly. Pay attention to the changes in the body. At this moment today, the two of them noticed that it seemed like...
"I have a little belly." Zhuo Yan lowered his head and stared at the slightly undulating belly.
Ah Yin nodded and reached out to touch it.
It was a little itchy, but Zhuo Yan didn't avoid it and touched it, "Ah Yin... did you see it?" "
?" Ah Yin looked up at his brother.
Zhuo Yan: "Three spots of light." Very good, Ah Yin didn't see it, because after he finished speaking, Ah Yin's eyes were full of shock, and then he looked at his belly.
"...According to the calculation of days in Snow Lu Mountain, it has been almost two months since I came back. Including the whole winter, the baby will be born as soon as spring begins." After Zhuo Yan finished speaking, he was a little distressed, "I should have asked more questions when Lin Rong gave birth to the cub. Just a few words."
He didn't have this idea at the time and was just looking at Shale's fluffy little cub - Xiaopan Xiaoyan was really the size of a kitten when he was born. He has delivered babies to his own cats. Real kittens are about the size of a mouse's palm when they are born. Leopard cubs are not that small, maybe as big as a two-month-old kitten.
After Zhuo Yan thought about it, he looked at his belly again and felt a little numb.
One is fine, but if there are three -
"Brother." Ah Yin was very worried.
Zhuo Yan: "Forget it. There must be a way for the car to reach the mountain. It's here now."
It's useless to think too much.
So Zhuo Yan became happy again. After about ten days, the two of them spent every day in the cave eating, sleeping, and doing some handicrafts. Zhuo Yan's belly was still slightly rounded, and sometimes he would forget that he was pregnant with a cub.
Before the blizzard came, Zhuo Yan still remembered to go fishing. Last year he went late, which caused a lot of trouble. This year he was counting the days. The wind and snow were lighter these two days, so he called A Yin.
...The main thing is that this year, the two of them didn't dare to do much, unlike last year when they were in the dark and lost track of time.
Ah Yin dressed up her brother, and Zhuo Yan almost turned into a bear. When they reached the river, they vaguely saw a tiger carrying a man in the distance. Ah Yin carried his brother on his back and said that A Man was also here.
Zhuo Yan waved his hand: "Amanââ"
"Haha, I knew you were coming to catch fish." came Aman's voice.
The two parties met and started fishing. We haven't seen each other for a long time. Zhuo Yan and A Man were both wrapped in leather and standing by the river chatting. A Man's face became rounder and he said, "I've been eating so much lately."
"Don't eat too much," Zhuo Yan said.
Aman didn't understand. Zhuo Yan said: "Think about it, if the cub in the belly is too big, it will be difficult to give birth." How can this happen?
Worrying people.
"...Then I'll eat less." Aman still listened to Zhuo Yan.
"Don't be too little and make you hungry. Nutrition should also keep up." Zhuo Yan said.
Aman: ...How much do you eat? What is nutrition?
When A Yinda'en smashed the ice, several people were waiting nearby. Dan only heard A Man say how Zhuo Yan fished. It was the first time he saw it. He looked at him and asked if he really didn't need to fish? What are you waiting for?
"Wait a moment." Aman said.
Dan just waits.
After a short while, maybe a few minutes, a lot of fish came out of the hole in the ice. Those fish rushed to jump on the ice. Dan was stunned to see it. This was actually the first time for Aman to see it. He had only heard Zhuo Yan say it before. , this will scream.
"Zhuo Yan, you are so smart. There are so many fish."
"Hehe." Zhuo Yan stood in a low-key and humble manner.
Da En and A Yin went to pack the fish and quickly filled two baskets. Aman said to Zhuo Yan, "I'll go back with Dan in a while and deliver some fish to Shitou."
"Okay." Zhuo Yan nodded, "I wonder how his family is doing lately?"
Aman said, "More than ten days ago I went to see it, and Shitou said everything was fine, but there was going to be a snowstorm, and Shitou asked Kong Huo and the five of them to sleep together in his cave."
"
By the way, I passed by the textile factory when I came here. The house was not crushed by the snow, it is still there. "Aman knew that Zhuo Yan valued this house.
Zhuo Yan: "The storm hasn't come yet..."
It would be great if it could withstand the test.
Aman can't guarantee it either. The two of them had a conversation, and after the fish was installed, they each got on the back of their partner and went back to the cave. They did not dare to go out after that.
When I got back, I just had to deal with a basket of fish. Zhuo Yan felt a little nauseous doing this. Ah Yin boiled hot water and asked his brother to wash his hands with soap. "I'll clean up the fish. When it's done, I'll give some to Shitou and the others."
Zhuo Yan hummed.
There are many people in Shitou. This year, after the ramie fell, no finished cloth was woven before winter. In autumn, the tribes collectively dried their meat. Maha even had a conflict with some orcs because one of the leading orcs said: The Peacock clan did not go hunting. , and they are not from the Leopard People tribe, so why should they share the same amount as the tribesmen?
Including subsequent harvests.
The clan leader talked with Kong Xingxing, and later said that the meat and harvest were just lent to the Peacock clan, and they would be replaced with cloth when the cloth was woven next year.
This blocked the mouths of those orcs.
Kong Xingxing didn't ask for a lot, but of course he calculated the amount of food for a few people - the peacock clan didn't like eating meat very much, so they had less meat and got more yellow rice, beans and peanuts...
Maha was very angry at that time. I hunted reindeer alone and privately to send to the peacock. When Kong Huo and the others took a look, they said that they still had to clean up and skin the reindeer with such bloody pricks. Maha said that he would do it. This was very simple. He carried the reindeer and went to the river to clean it up.
After that time, Kong Huo and the others became somewhat sincere towards Ma Ha. They used to laugh and tease Ma Ha. On the day Zhuo Yan and A Yin got married, Kong Lu saw Ma Ha confused and turned into a human form and answered questions with Ma Ha first - if he had been in the Feather Clan before, Kong Lu would not have done this.
It's so shameless when so many people turn into human forms and have no clothes to wear!
It's all sincerity for sincerity.
Ah Yin packed up the fish for a day, and a snowstorm blew the next day, so she didn't dare to delay, "Brother, I'm going to deliver fish to Shitou and the others. You put the door up."
"I got it, hurry up and come back." "
Okay."
I won't deliver it today. There will be a snowstorm after that, and there will be no time to deliver it.
Zhuo Yan sat by the fire to warm himself up. Through a door, he heard the howling of ghosts and wolves in the wind and snow outside. He didn't know if there would be a beast tide this year, but he hoped there wouldn't be.
Ah Yin carried a basket on his back and shuttled through the snow and wind. He ran very fast to avoid the fish being knocked out. He also tied a lid to it. He walked on the ice and passed the house that was already covered with snow. However, The strange thing is that the green windows are crystal clear and there is no snow at all.
Very bright.
Ah Yin tilted his head and went to deliver fish to Shitou and the others first and then take a look when he came back.
In the stone cave.
Kong Huo and the others were not willing to live in the same cave as Kong Xingshitou - they had said it ten days ago. Before the blizzard came, they already regretted it. Kong Lu said, "Xiaoyue, are you cold?"
"Yue, do you want to? " Don't you want to move to your brother and Shitou's cave?" "Niao Xing was almost frozen last night." "Why don't we go over there?"
"Xiaoyue, can you tell me?" Say it shamelessly.
Ten days ago, he was the first to say no, but now he couldn't stand it anymore.
Ah Yin came to deliver the fish at this time. The wind and snow were so loud that Shi Shi didn't hear the cry for the first time. Then he opened the door and the wind and snow poured in. Ah Yin blocked the entrance of the cave and handed the fish to Shi Shi. It was simple. spoke.
"It seems that the neighboring cave is discussing whether to move to your side?" A Yin said.
Shitou understood instantly, "I was just about to call them - Xingxing. I'll call Xiaoyue and the others to come in."
"I'll call them." Ayin's beast form can talk, which is very convenient. It will be too cold here.
Kong Huo: Face saved.
Because it was too cold, it was not practical to move the bed at this time. The wind and snow were too heavy. In the end, the five people wrapped themselves in leather and hugged the leather, and ran to the next cave with their rice bowls. Ah Yin also helped push rocks to block the openings on both sides.
"Thank you A Yin."
Everyone came to thank me.
Ah Yin shouted through the stone and went home.
Shi Shi closed the wooden door and held it against the door with a stick. When he turned around, he found that Xingxing was covering the wooden bed with a slumped face. Five peacocks were chirping and he didn't know what to say, but the cave was suddenly much more lively and cheerful.
"I was just about to call you over. You can sleep on the wooden bed. The leather will be thicker for you. If it is in the shape of a bird, it will be enough to sleep on." Shitou said.
The wooden bed has been covered with three thick sheets of leather, and the fur is very soft. Five peacocks and hens are squatting on the bed, with the youngest Kong Yue occupying the middle position. They are chirping to the patriarch: quickly cover it, add more layers, okay It's so cold that I'm freezing to death.
"..." Kong Xingxing scolded the five people.
He clearly belongs to the clan leader! And when five people come to the cave, neither he nor the big guy can...sigh.
We can hatch eggs for you, yes, yes, don't be stingy. Chief, can you cover my head? My head is a little cold, so I want it too. I'm a little bored. Chief, move down a little but not too much.
Kong Xingxing: Angry face.
Chirping, Shitou thought it was lively and fun, Kissing Xingxing told Xingxing that they could kiss secretly at night, and the grumpy Kong Xingxing suddenly became gentle and indifferent to the world.
Just take advantage of Boss Kong.
No one noticed that on the stone bed in the distance, a dark green eggshell wrapped in soft long fur made a soft clicking sound. A small head covered in mucus poked out and made the first sound. scream.
"Ouch~"
Kong Xingxing: The big guy is quite cute, he screams so milky.
Shi Shi was cooking. One pot of yellow rice and bean porridge was enough for five people. Kong Lu and the others ate very little. "Would you like to bake some barbecue for you?"
Five heads popped out from under the skin, chattering like crazy.
Okay, it seems I don't like eating it. When he was in human form, he didn't eat much, but now that he's in bird form, he eats even less. The Leopard Tribe consumes much more food in animal form, but the Peacock Tribe is just the opposite.
Wait - it doesn't seem like the big guy is calling.
Kong Xingxing discovered it. He thought of something and immediately walked to the edge of the stone bed and faced the little head that had broken out of its shell. He was so frightened that his face turned pale. He was not at all as cold and beautiful as before, and his whole face was deformed.
"Big, big, big guy, come on! The egg has hatched... right?"
When Shitou heard Xingxing calling him, he rushed over with a wooden spoon. When he heard all the words, he was already at the edge of the stone bed. On the way, the cub with an eggshell on its head saw him and let out a whimpering sound.
Five animals nestled in the leather of the wooden bed next to them: Ah! ! ! !
The chicken was flying like a dog, and the skin was pushed away. It landed on the ground in the shape of a human. When the bird was there, the seven faces, either human or bird, looked at the cub nestled in the eggshell on the stone bed.
"Ah?"
"Chirping?"
"Brother, brother, is it, is it a leopard...?"
"Gah!"
The eggshell was not big, and the cub seemed to be in a ball inside the thin eggshell. Center - If Zhuo Yan saw it, he would definitely say that the thin skin is all stuffing, and the cub is packed into a ball like cotton, but no matter how you look at it, the little head is round, because there is still some mucus, and it is difficult to Even if I look for it, I can't find the peacock's beak.
The cub has a round head, round eyes, and round eyes -
"Ouch~"
The cub was trapped in the eggshell and let out a ferocious cry for help, but it was so milky and there was no one around. Help him - he was so shocked that he could only tilt his head and gnaw at the eggshell with great effort. Then he was silent for a second, then he opened his mouth and started to cry.
The cry was quite loud, and Kong Xingxing was right about this. The longer the cub stayed in the eggshell, the stronger it became. This cry also shook the two silly fathers back to their senses. Shitou looked at Xingxing, pleading for help, "What to do next?"
Kong Xingxing's beautiful and intelligent face showed a not-so-smart look for the first time. .
"He looks like a leopard. What should a leopard cub do?"
They all looked at the stone. Fortunately, Shi Shi has experience - he raised his younger siblings and gently held the eggshell with his hand. The cub stopped crying and rubbed his head against his father's fingers with blurry eyes.
Shitou asked: "Can the eggshell be taken off?"
"Yes, can it?" Kong Xingxing was no longer as panicked as a peacock.
Not to mention Kong Yue and the others, they saw clearly that it was really a leopard, why did the leopard come out of the eggshell! ! ! First time meeting!
"Here I go, big guy, I'll just take off the shell." Kong Xingxing reached out to pick up the eggshell, but the next second, the shell cracked in his hand.
Fortunately, the stone did not let go.
The shell of the egg cub held by the two men cracked open, revealing the entire cub inside.
A little leopard was sitting, with a faint bulge on its back. The little leopard looked left and right curiously, and sneezed -
Kong Xingxing said it was cold and hurriedly sent the cub into bed.
The next second, Shitou stopped shouting, "Behind Zaizai..."
A pair of soft wings looked like wings.
Chapter 90
There has been a snowstorm for days. When I wake up every morning, the snow outside the cave has covered the entrance of the cave. If the door hadn't been installed into the cave, it would have been broken.
The first thing Ah Yin does when he wakes up in the morning is to peel off the door and then clear the snow.
Zhuo Yan has been a little sleepy recently, and Ah Yin woke up. He was actually conscious and muttered a few words in confusion, wanting to talk to Ah Yin, but he didn't know that the sounds he made were garbled.
"I'm wrapped in thick leather, so it's not cold."
"The leather behind the door is frozen hard."
"Don't worry, brother, you go to sleep first, I'll boil hot water and call you."
But Ah Yin was able to do it perfectly. Right.
Zhuo Yan muttered something vaguely, then pulled himself into bed and continued to sleep. When he woke up, the snow at the entrance of the cave had been cleared, charcoal was lit in the cave, and hot water was being heated on the stove. Ah Yin filled two buckets of snow, which was half-melted by the stove.
Ah Yin was sitting at the stove peeling potatoes. As soon as he woke up, Ah Yin turned to look at him and said, "Brother, would you like to have potato fish soup in the morning?"
"Okay. Cut the potatoes into smaller pieces and stew them with more noodles." Zhuo Yan was drooling a little. He had been lethargic recently and had a big appetite - he had told A Man to eat less, but now it was his turn to slap him in the face.
He didn't dare to eat too much, so he could only choose something nutritious. He drank almost half of the basket of fish at home. Every day, a fish was stewed milky white, and it was very fragrant if some potatoes, minced meat, or peanuts were added to it.
Zhuo Yan stood up and put on his clothes. Ah Yin wiped his hands and poured hot water for his brother to clean. When Zhuo Yan put on his waistcoat, he paused with his hands and found that his belly was a little bigger again, giving him a new and strange feeling, but he didn't reject it much.
He has a home here, a loving partner, and now pups.
Zhuo Yan washed his face with hot water and brushed his teeth. A Yin went to pour the dirty water. Zhuo Yan took over the cooking steps. A Yin had almost processed the ingredients. He only needed to wash and cut the potatoes. After a small spoonful of oil greased the pan, he put The fish that had been thawed and cleaned was put in, and there was a stinging sound.
There is some fragrance in the cave.
Fry the fish until golden brown on both sides, pour hot water so that the soup will be whiter, add diced potatoes, Zhuo Yan likes to eat noodles with a little texture, cover and simmer over low heat.
After finishing the staple food at home, Zhuo Yan plans to finish breakfast. Today's task is to steam a pot of yellow rice steamed buns stuffed with peanuts. It's freezing outside and can be frozen directly. It can last for ten and a half months.
Ah Yin only likes yellow rice, so he eats all the steamed steamed buns.
After Ah Yin went to the next cave to feed Dafu Da Ming, "I changed a batch of hay into the cave, and I also spread the old scraps of leather left at home on top."
"Okay. You can warm up quickly and eat later."
Since he gave Ya The pigs were named and raised, and the two of them were fighting each other. The pigs and their son were much more relaxed than before when they were free-range animals. In the past, they were raised to prepare rations, but now they are really raised as 'pets'.
Ah Yin went to wash his hands and heard his brother say that he would steam the yellow rice today, so he said, "Then I'll pound the yellow rice."
"Okay."
The yellow rice had to be dealt with. The two of them were not like last year, when they soaked together every day and fell in love in the dark. Now I'm very restrained, the winter is long, I just pound and shell yellow rice, or peel peanuts and mung beans. This year's harvest is huge, and there is a lot of food in the cave.
Ah Yin pounded the yellow rice in the stone pot, smashed the yellow rice shells, and began to sift the shells with a dustpan - he ran to the entrance of the cave to do it. The cold wind outside was howling, and the yellow rice did not need to be lifted. When the wind blew, the shells All the children were taken away by the wind and snow.
Only the heavy yellow rice in the dustpan was left.
At noon, they drank fish soup. The potatoes were simmered, and the soup turned milky white and slightly thicker. Zhuo Yan used chopsticks to separate the big fish bones first, and he and A Yin each had a big bowl.
"Be careful, there are still some thin thorns, don't get stuck." Zhuo Yan said.
Every time he heard his brother say this, Ah Yin felt like he was back in the snowy season when his brother had just picked him up. When his brother fed him fish soup, he would pick all the thorns. Even so, when he drank it, his brother would He would tell me to be careful, eat slowly, and don't let the thorn pierce my throat.
"I know, brother, please slow down."
The two of them finished their breakfast and lunch. In fact, Zhuo Yan couldn't tell what time it was. In winter, except for the night, the morning and afternoon during the day were actually very blurry. The two of them were by the fire. Start making yellow rice steamed buns.
This is very easy to make. Just wash the yellow rice that Ah Yin has pounded out of the shell in clean water and drain it. In this state, use a mallet to pound it directly into a paste - if you have flour, you need to add water to make the dough. This is not necessary, just pound it into a paste because it has just passed. After adding water, the moisture was just right. The yellow rice was not as absorbent and dry as the wheat flour. It was a bit sticky when pounded. Zhuo Yan started to assemble the dough with one hand and put it on the straw dustpan.
"Wait a minute, the bamboo has grown taller, and the straw dustpans can be replaced."
Straw dustpans are not as easy to use as bamboo ones, some are soft and need more layers, and they are not as strong and durable as bamboo ones. . The bamboo they planted the year before last grew half as tall as a man after a snowy season last year.
"When the snow melts a little, Ah Yin, let's go dig bamboo shoots."
Ah Yin agreed. My brother has been talking about bamboo shoots for a long time, and he must be hungry for this.
Zhuo Yan thought again: "I guess if the snow is lighter, some tribesmen will run to Snow Deer Mountain." Because the sky is sunny and the ground is not muddy, the tribe has work to do, so it is time to go to Snow Deer Mountain.
At the wedding between him and Ah Yin, many orcs with partners were eager to try.
Lin Rong is the only sub-orc in the tribe who has had cubs in the past year or two, because it is difficult to conceive - like Chun and Ashu, they did not have a mating ceremony, but they lived in the same cave a year earlier than Qiao and Ada. year, and no cubs.
There are also a group of younger sub-orcs in the tribe such as A Bai and A Hua. They have all lived with orc partners for several years, but they have never had any cubs.
That's why in the tribe before, the strongest orcs and sub-orcs had cubs, and they were more difficult to conceive. For example, they were all from the older generation, such as Shitou Parents, Lin Rong Asen, etc.
"Absolutely, I heard them say they want to go in spring." Ah Yin nodded in agreement.
Zhuo Yan's eyes lit up, and Ah Yin hurriedly said: "Brother, we can't go. We all have cubs. If you still want more cubs, we can wait a few more years before going." "
... Not this. "And if the tree of life is real, then he will most likely have three children in one child, and where will the father be - ugh.
"What I mean is, you can ask someone to bring back some transparent stones."
That thing is not particularly heavy.
"This takes less time than making pottery and is wear-resistant. Then we can make some rakes and hoes for farming."
Stone knives are still the mainstay of agricultural tools. In fact, the wear resistance of this transparent stone is similar to that of stone, but it is more convenient and faster to make than stone. Stone has to be ground and chiseled, and it will crack if the hand strength is not right.
Transparent stone tools are much simpler. You just need to make a mold out of clay, pour the transparent stone liquid mixed with muddy water into the mold, bake it, and then peel off the mud mold - some don't even need to peel it off.
Tools such as rakes, hoes, and picks need to be sharpened. For making molds, you need a large vat, which is good for storing grain. However, the first batch was mainly about improving farm tools so that the work would be more labor-intensive.
"Then I'll go find Daya after the blizzard stops, and ask Daya to ask the orcs who are going to help bring some stones back." A Yin said.
Zhuo Yan hummed, Da Ya lived in a relatively central location, and Cong Lu had a friendly relationship with the sub-orcs. It was much more convenient for them to notify each other than for him and A Yin to run from house to house. The most important thing was that they didn't know who was going.
More than half a month later, the snow outside was very thick and the blizzard never stopped.
Zhuo Yan has been waking up from sleep recently, several times a night. When he opened his eyes this night, he saw Ah Yin looking at him worriedly, hugging him and coaxing him. Zhuo Yan frowned and said, "Did I wake you up?"
Ah Yin hugged her brother and stroked his back with her big hands, just like the first time when her brother comforted him when he was injured.
Zhuo Yan was still a little lost.
Suddenly, Ah Yin turned into an animal shape, wrapped his whole body around him, and spoke: "Brother, don't be afraid."
"...I dreamed that the snow season didn't stop, it kept falling," Zhuo Yan said. Referring to the content of the dream, "I don't know if it's my imagination. Last year, I felt that the snowstorms in the snow season were longer and colder. This year, the day and night are reversed, and I feel that the snowstorms will never stop."
If this continues, the weather will change every year . It gets colder, what should I do?
Ah Yin didn't speak, just hugged her brother and gently licked her brother's head. Zhuo Yan was amused for a moment, "Have you noticed it too?"
"Yeah."
Zhuo Yan sighed. It was fine before, relying on the sky, life and death, carpe diem, and using these to comfort himself, now With the cub in his possession, he couldn't help but reach out and touch his belly -
it trembled slightly under his palm.
Zhuo Yan was startled for a moment, "Ah Yin, the cub in my belly is moving."
Ah Yin's big furry palm covered his brother's hand, but Zhuo Yan's belly was quiet again and motionless. The trembling just now seemed like Zhuo Yan was dreaming. Likewise, Ah Yin just touched his brother's hand for a while.
"Brother, spring will come."
"Yes, it may be later, but it will come. If not, store more food in the winter." Zhuo Yan said.
Life must go on, and there are always solutions to problems.
The days were very boring after that. Zhuo Yan steamed a lot of yellow rice steamed buns, which were frozen and hard. It was very convenient to heat them up when eating. When winter comes, the weather is cold, the light is not good, and people stay in a cave all day, it is really easy for people to get depressed.
So recently, Zhuo Yan became obsessed with betting on peanuts with A Yin. They both had a handful of original peanuts, and then played backgammon. Zhuo Yan could win a lot every day. The two of them sat by the stove. Ah Yin peeled peanuts for his brother, but Zhuo Yan got a little angry after eating too much, so he stuffed them all into Ah Yin's mouth.
In such a slow and endless snow season, we try our best to enjoy the hardships and maintain a happy mood. On this day, the snowstorm finally stopped.
"Brother, the snow has stopped!" Ah Yin reported.
Zhuo Yan: Just one carp is missing.
"Really or not? Let me see."
Ah Yin ran back to get a leather cloak for his brother and put it on to keep warm. When the two of them went out, they saw that it was full of snow outside. It was hard to tell which was the river and which was the cave. But it was really Stopped.
Very good.
The snowstorm has stopped, which means that winter is almost over - Zhuo Yan painted a pie for himself, with a goal in mind, and he was in a good mood and energetic. The two of them burned several large pots of snow water for cleaning, and also cleaned the cave. Firewood, ashes and charcoal were thrown outside, and Dafu was also cleaned up in Da Ming Cave.
More than ten days have passed in succession, and the snow has never stopped before. But in the last five or six days, it has snowed lightly, and the sun has been out for a long time.
It looks like winter is really almost over.
Zhuo Yan: I'm happy.
Two days later, Ah Yin ran to tell Daya about the transparent stone. Within two days after that, Zhuo Yan and Ah Yin were blowing cold wind at the entrance of the cave. After holding it in for more than a month, they finally came out to let out some air.
"Brother, look." Ah Yin pointed into the distance.
There are a bunch of leopards in the white snow, all carrying a "big baggage" on their bodies. It was their respective partners wrapped in leather, so tightly wrapped that it was impossible to tell where their heads were, like a big bundle.
"Da Ya and Cong Lu are also going." Ah Yin recognized Da Ya.
Zhuo Yan: Huh?
Zhuo Yan, who was confused, reacted, "...it's pretty good. I think Cong Lu is still very young."
Because orcs can transform, it takes eighteen years to raise a child to adulthood in modern times, but that's not the case here. It takes five months to turn into a seven or eight-year-old child, and then it will grow normally.
According to the age calculation of modern people, Cong Lu and Daya were in their early thirties, still in their prime - of course they were also in their prime in the orc tribe.
...The mortality rate in this world was too high before.
"When Daya comes back, I will laugh at him. When I went to find him, he insisted that he would not go. Let's see what he says this time." Ah Yin said.
Zhuo Yan found that A Yin was also 'naughty'. It must have been because Daya had 'joked' A Yin before, "Okay, you two can hurt each other."
"I don't know how my house is doing."
"Brother, I Let's go and have a look."
"Let's go together in two days."
"Okay."
Zhuo Yan started to go skiing every year again. He dressed up and went to the river, which is close to Shitou and Aman Cave. There was a roar, and soon there was a roar - Da En's tiger roar.
"No need to translate, Aman is definitely coming down."
He and Ayin were waiting here, and couldn't help but look at a 'snow house' not far away. The house was covered with snow and only its general shape could be seen, but it didn't collapse. Ayin Said he went to push the snow down -
Zhuo Yan often said during the snowstorm that the snow would not crush the weaving factory. After hearing this, Ah Yin knew that too much snow would collapse the house, and now she wanted to sweep the roof.
Zhuo Yan ran a long way to the side, shouting: "Be careful when you go up, pay attention to the safety of your feet, if the roof of the house fails, run away."
"I know, brother -" Ah Yin, a big silver leopard, with a strong body He jumped to the roof and started pushing the snow with his paws.
The snow on the roof was swept away and fell to the ground with a crash, revealing the roof tiles. They were actually solid and did not fall off. Strangely, the windows were covered with ice crystals, but they were transparent and did not crack.
This window glass is really cold resistant.
"Brother, let's go in and wait." Ah Yin ran over and asked his brother to sit on his back. They went to the house to wait for Amanda En.
The two of them entered, and Zhuo Yan exclaimed: "Ah Yin, do you think it's quite warm in here?" Of course it was relative to the temperature outside.
Ah Yin groaned and nodded.
Zhuo Yan walked to the window and reached out to touch it. The window was ice cold and did not crack even after knocking. He stood by the window and no cold air came in - even a few pieces of leather hanging on the wooden door at the entrance of his house could not block the cold air. , and some will seep in.
I couldn't help but stand by the bed and think about something.
"Zhuo Yan!"
"Zhuo Yan!"
A shout came from outside the door, and Aman's voice was very excited, "I'm telling you, the Shitou family's egg cubs hatched-"
Huh? Zhuo Yan pulled back his thoughts and opened the door. Dan came down carrying A Man on his back. The two of them quickly arrived at the house. A Man ignored the changes in the house and said, "Guess."
"You said it, the egg cubs hatched. "
I'm not asking you to guess this. I'm asking you to guess what the Shitou egg cubs hatched."
Zhuo Yan originally said, "What else can it be but a peacock?" But when he saw A Man's triumphant "You'll never guess" expression on his face, he paused, "...You can't hatch a leopard from an egg shell." Right? "
I'm either like my father or my mother.
"!!! You guessed it right, but it's not entirely right." Aman said.
Zhuo Yan:? ? ?
What else?
"Blizzard has a pair of wings behind it."
Zhuo Yan:! ! ! He couldn't have guessed this, "Go and have a look, go and have a look."
What else is there to do with skating? Danzai is more important.
The two got on the backs of their partners. Zhuo Yan recalled what Aman had just said and shouted at the top of his lungs: "Have you named Shitou's egg cub? Blizzard?"
"Yes, it was Ah Yin who gave them fish on the day they hatched. Originally, Shitou's egg cubs were given a name. "My name is Ayu."
Zhuo Yan:...
"Boss Kong said the blizzard is pretty good."
Zhuo Yan nodded and said, "The blizzard is really good. It sounds scary." When I think back to the long blizzard month in the past, I feel really scared.
Who is not afraid of this name among the three tribes on the grassland?
When the four of them arrived at the door of Shitou's house, the snow on the platform had been cleared. The four of Kong Huo were wrapped in leather and cleaning up outside. The five of them returned to the cave next door a few days ago and recently started cleaning.
Seeing their arrival, Kong Huo and the others were very excited and welcomed them with chirping noises.
After being in the nest all winter, everyone is the same. The peacock clan is more afraid of the cold than others. They are shivering but in good spirits. It can be seen that the nest is going crazy and they have to come out to let out the cold.
Shitou heard the sound and ran out, followed by Kong Xingxing.
The weather is sunny and everyone doesn't like to stay in the cave.
"Where's your Blizzard?" Zhuo Yan asked curiously.
Kong Xingxing opened his skin and poked out a furry head from his arms. It purred like a kitten and had bulging eyes, staring curiously at Zhuo Yan and the others.
Blizzard, who was born almost two months ago and has been living in a dark cave, saw the outside world and strange people today. It was very novel. So even if he struggled, his father didn't catch him, and he flew directly from his hand. Out.
Zhuo Yan saw the little kitten with a milky voice flying towards him in a swaying manner! ! !
Really has wings.
Zhuo Yan quickly caught it and put the little leopard into his skin, but the little leopard was not happy and leaned forward lively to see Ah Yin and Amanda En.
"It really has wings and can fly." Aman was still surprised when he saw it again.
Zhuo Yan was in a trance with a shocked face. He looked down at Blizzard in his hand. The little guy's hair was light golden brown. The wings on his back were short haired. The roots of the wings were golden brown mixed with the fur. Echigo's wings were layered in layers. green.
The gold and green colors look very coordinated.
"Blizzard is back." Shitou greeted.
Blizzard didn't listen. He lowered his head and bit the saliva from the hand of the person holding him.
Zhuo Yan: Hehe, it doesn't hurt at all, little cat.
"He doesn't want to stay in the cave. He recently learned to fly and is very lively and active. He wants to see everywhere. I'll hold him." Shitou's eyes were apologetic.
Zhuo Yan smiled and handed Blizzard to Shi Shi.
Shitou slapped Blizzard on the head, and Blizzard looked at his father angrily, and then whined, but Shitou gave Blizzard to Kong Xingxing, and Blizzard whined and asked Shitou to hug him.
It seems that blizzard is very sticky to rocks.
"Zhuo Yan, do you think he's scared?" Shitou asked after a while.
Zhuo Yan was startled. He didn't expect Shitou to ask this, but he noticed that Shitou was very happy when he saw them coming, but there was still worry hidden deep in his eyes. When Blizzard bit his saliva, Shitou actually felt apologetic.
It didn't happen before.
"I was just too surprised just now. I wasn't afraid of the blizzard."
"Me too, don't think too much about Shitou." Aman reacted, "Look at Ah Yin, how good he is now."
But Ah Yin used to be a white-haired boy . Very pitiful.
"This is not the past, Shitou. In the past, you said that sub-orcs and sub-orcs would starve to death if they could not be together. Now we have a lot more food. You and Boss Kong have spent this winter together. The most important thing is-"
Shi Tou looked nervously. Xiang Zhuoyan.
Zhuo Yan smiled and said, "You forgot, when spring comes, the three of us, Aman and Qiao, will have cubs, and they will be playmates together by then."
"That's right, that's right." Aman patted Shitou smiled cheerfully and said, "They grew up and played together. They will definitely not be afraid of Blizzard. Blizzard is still his elder brother."
Shitou was infected by his partner's smile. He worried about it all winter, but now he is half relieved - maybe Others in the tribe will still laugh at Blizzard, but Blizzard will have his own partners.
"Thank you." Kong Xingxing said.
Zhuo Yan: "Tell the truth, you're welcome."
"We and Shitou are good partners." Aman affirmed. What's the point of thanking you for this?
"They have been in the cave for too long. After Blizzard's wings became able to fly, the big guy became very worried. In fact, I also thought about taking them away, but there is nowhere else to go except here, and I can't take them far." Kong Xingxing During that time, I also felt a little guilty. He was the leader of the Peacock clan, but the hilltop of the Peacock clan was occupied by other clans, and the clan members withered.
Now that he has a partner, he is worried about the cubs and there is nothing he can do.
In fact, both of them sensed that the other was depressed, self-blaming and worried, and cheered each other up. They were afraid that the other would be worried, but no one mentioned it, but they both knew it. Now that the sky is clear, I met Zhuo Yan and the others. After a few words, Shitou and Kong Xingxing opened up, and their knots in their hearts were relieved.
Later, everyone talked about other things, whether there was enough food in the cave, and Daya led the team to Snow Deer Mountain. A Yingang probably pushed the snow on the roof of the textile factory, but he didn't expect it to be okay... After
chatting for a while, the sky became dark again. Come down and go home.
"They went to the hot springs, so our tribe will have more cubs this year." Aman said to Dan.
Dan was still in his animal form and remained silent until he reached the cave and turned into a human. He held Aman's hand and said solemnly: "Aman, if our cub is a tiger or leopard, it will be different from other cubs in the tribe. Don't worry." Worry."
Aman was originally teasing everyone who went to Snow Deer Mountain with a careless smile on his face, but when he saw how serious Dan was, he was stunned for a moment, and then he smiled brightly and said, "Yeah "
He could feel Dahn's love and had a lot of courage.
On their way back, Zhuo Yan and Ah Yin were thinking, "What's the name of our cub? It's a bit early to think of a name now, but according to the tribal naming principles, we name whatever we saw on the day we were born..."
For example, the stone Ah fish.
Zhuo Yan sat on A Yin's back and shook his head. It's not too early to think of a name now.
"Actually, Jin Zha Mu Zha Nezha... Hahahaha, I'm just kidding."
"Zhuochun Zhuorizhuotou hahahahahaha."
Ah Yin said, listening to his brother laughing happily on his back, with smiles in his eyes. : "Hello, brother, everything on the back carries your name."
"..." Zhuo Yan thought of a few names for cheating, because he laughed too loudly - his laughter point is a bit low now. When he heard A Yin say this, he choked with fright, coughed, and hurriedly said: " No, no, I'm joking, I'm serious, I definitely can't call you this."
Ah Yin said.
"My name was given to me by my brother. It sounds very nice."
Zhuo Yan felt a little guilty when he heard this. Fortunately, Ah Yin didn't see it. He originally chose this name for Ah Yin because he thought of his family's aging family. ...a bit scummy.
But he, now, loves Ah Yin very much.
Ah Yin is not the substitute for the silver in the family. Zhuo Yan looked serious.
"What name should I choose? Just now I laughed at the stone Ayu, but now I am really afraid that when he is born, he will not be as good as Ayu."
"Then let's think about it, brother, I will think about it with you."
"Okay. ! "
In the stone cave.
It was night, Shitou had cooked rice, and Kong Lu and the other five people came over to help. In fact, they were just eating. When they looked up, they saw the gloomy face of the patriarch Kong Xingxing. The five people were startled. Kong Lu said, "It's just a meal. The last time, we'll cook it ourselves."
"Brother, don't be angry."
Kong Huo said, "Why are you so angry?"
Shitou heard this . He glanced at the stars and said to the five of them: "He's not angry. He's thinking about something. You guys can eat. It's okay. You even helped me cook."
"We also need to eat. There's nothing we can't help with." Green said.
Several people nodded.
While waiting for the meal to begin, Kong Xingxing glanced at the five people and said, "Zhuo Yan said today that the snow on the roof of the textile house has been swept away. Let's go weaving tomorrow."
"Ah?"
"!!!"
" ??"
"Patriarch, what are you talking about?"
Kong Xingxing became so diligent. It was so cold and the snow had not yet melted. The five people were shocked. In the past, Kong Xingxing was not like this at the top of the mountain. When he was in a good mood, he would do some work. When he was in a bad mood, it was useless for anyone to urge him.
Now he actually takes the initiative to work, is it still a cold day?
The five people looked worried. Isn't this their clan leader/eldest brother/Kong Xingxing?
"I'll accompany you and carry some more charcoal down." Shitou understood instantly. He held Xingxing's hand and could only support Xingxing.
Kong Xingxing raised his eyes and looked at the big man with a smile. He turned to look at the expressions of the five people. His face changed instantly and he lost all smiles. He said seriously: "When the Leopard Man tribe starts working, we have to weave cloth. There are so many people." We need to put on some clothes. We will have some work later."
"We still need to see the ramie fields. If we are frozen to death by the snow, we will still have to farm."
"We can't go back to Peacock Mountain. We want to stay here. If people respect us, then we have to show our ability."
"Otherwise, where can we go next time?"
Kong Lu and the others were silent. Kong Yue nodded obediently. My brother was right. After a while, after eating, the four of them rushed to clear away the dishes and chopsticks, muttering behind their backs: "What Kong Xingxing said just now -"
"It makes sense."
"I know, I mean, he is obviously Because Shitou and Blizzard are talking so seriously. "
"You nonsense, you don't like Blizzard? Of course I don't like Shitou, so don't spread it, otherwise Kong Xingxing will cause trouble to me."
"... "
One winter, especially the month of snowstorm, luckily there was a stone. The five of them all loved and respected the stone, not their partners.
"Our peacock's wings can still fly. Blizzard is really powerful."
But in view of Kong Xingxing's petty nature and jealousy, everyone still praised Blizzard tacitly - it is safer to like Blizzard.
"So - we have to weave a lot of cloth. Who dares to laugh at our Blizzard in the future?"
"Yes!"
