Prehistoric Widows Survival [Farming]
Chapter 61
The crow noticed Lu Yi approaching, saw Lu Yi with its dark green eyes, was stunned for a moment, and then screamed in shock.
Lu You frowned: "Is this a beast or an orc?"
"It's not like an orc." The horn changed back to a human form, pinching the crow's neck, with a dignified expression, "It's very similar to that bull."
He is obviously not an orc, but he has emotions that are a little bit beyond ordinary birds and beasts.
But there is no doubt that these guys with dark green eyes are inseparable from the envoys.
It may even be a "scout" created by the envoy.
"The envoy has already found this place?" Lu Er looked at the crow that was struggling and barking, shook her head and denied her guess, "No, this one seems to have come across us by chance."
Jiao recalled the last time he met the orcs of the Heihe tribe, and said that there was an envoy in their tribe, his eyes darkened.
It seemed that before he left the Redwood Tribe, he wanted to clean up that envoy.
"What about the bird?"
"I can't ask anything, let's kill it." Jiao's men forcefully twisted the crow's neck cleanly.
Lu You watched the bird fall to the ground lifelessly, squatted down and observed it carefully, and found that the dark green in its eyes still seemed to have a little life left, and there was a vague feeling of being stared at.
But for a moment, those dark greens became dead silent.
Lu You touched her ring subconsciously, raised her head and looked at Jiao, with some hesitation: "I always feel...it seems to know me."
Jiao also glanced at Lu You's ring, frowned, patted Lu You's shoulder lightly, and comforted him in a low voice: "Don't worry, I will take care of that envoy."
……
After taking Lu Wei back to the tribe, everyone had heard the lion's roar of joy before, and they didn't know what kind of happy event happened to Jiao, so they came over curiously to inquire.
For the time being, the matter of the envoy was not planned to be known to the ordinary people of the Redwood Tribe, so Jiao and Lu Er regained their emotions.
Recalling the reason for their ecstasy, Jiao felt a lot happier, and somewhat proudly announced to them the news of Lu Er's pregnancy.
Zi Tong, who was the leader, opened his eyes wide, subconsciously said: "Really? Didn't I make a mistake again?"
Last time, Lu You made a mistake with Dizihua not long ago.
At that time, Jiao was still Xiao Mi, and he personally participated in the process of making "perjury evidence", so he naturally remembered it.
But since his sub-beast said it himself this time, it must be right.
With Lu You's nod to confirm, Zitong was happy for Lu You on the one hand, but on the other hand he gave a sour look, a little bit unwilling: "In the future, if Lu Er has cubs, she won't be able to play with me."
Jiao didn't expect this sub-beast to think a lot, and glanced at him dissatisfied: "When did Lu Er play with you?"
Zitong made a grimace, turned around and ran away.
……
Lu You originally thought that when he found out that he was "pregnant", his old father Teng's performance was already exaggerated, but he didn't expect it to be even more exaggerated now.
During the day, Lu Er refused to do any physical work, even pouring water to feed the sheep, as if Lu Er was a crystal doll who couldn't stand a little bit of fatigue;
At night, because the weather was cold and it was not yet time to burn the kang, Jiao turned into a big lion every time to warm the kang, and then changed back into a human form and pulled Lu Er to sleep with him.
Now they're finally officially sleeping together.
In the past, Lu You only hugged and slept with a big furry lion, and slept with a human-shaped horn. At first, he felt very uncomfortable.
What I am not used to is not sleeping with other people, but lying in the corner's arms, with the corner's chest behind me. There is no such thing as pajamas in this era. They are completely skin-to-skin, and they can feel each other. The emitted temperature.
Just after confirming their relationship, both Lu You and Jiao couldn't help being a little excited.
But now there is a cub in Lu You's stomach.
Not knowing if it would affect the cub, neither Jiao nor Lu Er dared to act rashly.
Lu You vaguely remembers that in modern society, the pre-pregnancy period is more dangerous, but the mid-term is safer.I just don't know if the same is true for orcs and sub-beasts.
They can only hug each other and sleep under the quilt.
In addition, Jiao also spent a lot of energy cutting the animal skins with thick fur into sections and wrapping them on the door cracks and windows to ensure that the house is as warm as spring when the cold season comes.
Other families followed suit and wrapped their own doors and windows with animal skins.
Lu Er's work in the experimental field has also temporarily stopped - not only because Jiao is circling around him like a big dog, but also because the weather is getting colder and it is not suitable for planting research.
He put all his attention on tribe building.
Thinking of the heavy snow last year, Lu Er arranged some tasks to be completed before the cold season.
The first is rolling roads. Before the cold season freezes the ground, the main roads and small roads in front of the village should be flattened and compacted.
When the tribe moved, they did not bring rollers, mills, or mills with them. After arriving in the new tribe, they took the time to collect stones to make them.
This time, in order to roll the road, Teng took a special time to take a few orcs who were good at handling stones out, and remade several stone wheels.
The young orcs in the tribe can come and push the road when they have time, and there is even a courtyard inside the courtyard.
Zhan, who has integrated into the life of the tribe for a while, enthusiastically recommended the two orcs who came with him, saying that their animal shape is especially suitable for pulling stone wheels and rolling the road.
In order to avoid the work of sweeping the pigsty a while ago, the two orcs ran out without a trace every day under the pretext of hunting food in the cold season, which made Zhan, who dealt with pigs alone, resentful.
This time, when he heard that there was such a boring job, Zhan immediately put on a simple and straightforward face, and pushed his two companions out.
"We're going to live in the Redwood Tribe for the whole cold season, so we should do something to help."
The second is the construction of the mill, which transfers the entire process of grinding beans and making tofu indoors.
Lu Er originally considered rebuilding a simple small house, but an old orc put forward his own opinion: "Leave it in my place."
This old orc was brought here when the guard came here. He was old, his legs were injured, and his movements were not very sensitive.
Now he and another old sub-beast from the Redwood Tribe got together and lived in the same suite.
"We two old guys don't have much stuff, just a place to sleep." The old orc patted his leg wrapped in animal skin, a little embarrassed, "I didn't make any contribution, living in such a big place Taking advantage of nothing... In the future, everyone can come to my house to make tofu."
Lu You persuaded: "Coming and going can be very noisy."
"It's okay, it's better to be lively." The old orc's eyes brightened a lot, and there was even a trace of expectation on his wrinkled face. "It's better to have young people to accompany us two old guys."
That being the case, Lu You agreed to the arrangement without any further pressure.
In addition, it is the thermal maintenance of the pigsty.On the one hand, it is necessary to cover the entire pigsty with tents, and on the other hand, it is the problem of heat source.
In the current pigsty, almost every household has piglets in it, and keeping warm has become a major issue for the entire tribe.
Considering the size of the pigsty, Lu Er imitated the kang in the courtyard, and built a square kang in the pigsty for heating.
Compared with the heater prepared by Lu Wei last year, the Fang Kang has a better heating effect and is suitable for large-scale pigsty.
Because Zhan recommended the job of rolling roads, the two orcs who came with Zhan this time followed suit not to be outdone: "Let Zhan do it!"
"Yes, he's used to sweeping the pigsty anyway!"
war:"……"
Lu Wei stood aside and watched them hurt each other, and couldn't help but want to laugh: "Don't worry, I can't handle it alone."
Zhan "got his wish" and joined the team to repair the pigsty.
There is a large bamboo forest, the flexibility of bamboo is much stronger than ordinary wood, and the tents propped up are also much more stable.
The last thing is actually not a big deal, but it is also very important.
They have to prepare firewood for the winter.
Last year they had no shortage of firewood, because there were two seasons of soybean or millet stalks to burn.
But after coming to the new tribe this year, they only planted one crop of sweet potatoes.
The leaves of sweet potatoes are not suitable for firewood. It is better to eat them directly as vegetables or raise pigs.
So now they need to collect dry wood for the winter.
The cold season is coming, and there are fewer wild animals in the wild. Most of the wild animals are preparing for winter, and it is relatively safer to go out to collect firewood.
Therefore, orcs, sub-beasts, and cubs can all be dispatched, and those with poor combat ability can not walk too far.
Lu You originally wanted to go out to collect firewood, but Jiao resolutely stopped him.
"I won't go, why don't you go?" Lu You felt helpless, "My stomach is not big yet."
"That doesn't work!" Jiao was very determined, without blinking his eyes, "Just let Zhan go."
The blond-haired orc brother who opened the door and came in for dinner was stunned when he heard this, with a bitter expression on his face: "Brother, I still have to work during the day."
"Go at night." Jiao didn't like this younger brother who came to eat every night, and said angrily, "It's not like you can't see."
The battle showed sadness.
When he was in the Shentan tribe, he was also considered a rich man. Although he did not do nothing, he always only focused on hunting, fighting, enjoying flowers, cheering and admiration. When did he do such a thing?
In the end, I found my brother, and was ordered around by my brother!
The point is, he still can't beat it!
Zhan sat beside the table indignantly: If it wasn't because he couldn't beat the horn, he wouldn't help the horn to pick up some firewood!
After eating, Zhan was chased away by Jiao to collect firewood.
As night fell, it was getting late, and most of the orcs and sub-beasts of the Redwood Tribe returned to their homes and prepared to sleep.
The nocturnal beasts in the wild also gradually began to move around, but because the orcs had cleared the vicinity of the tribe, the experienced beasts knew that this place should not be provoked, so they did not approach it tacitly.
Zhan has no fear of night.
If he couldn't adapt to the wild at night, he wouldn't be sent out by the tribe to find horns.
It's just that he is a real brother, and Jiao is hugging the soft Asian animal under the warm blanket to make love, so he can only walk on the cold ground to pick up hard firewood...
At first, he thought that Jiao just found a random sub-beast because he had no vision, but as his understanding of the Redwood Tribe deepened these days, Zhan became more and more aware of the special features of Lu Er, a sub-beast.
This sub-beast brought such earth-shaking changes to the Redwood Tribe.
Now the Redwood Tribe is not well-known just because its number is too small and it doesn't have much contact with other tribes.
Siheyuan, food, pottery, tools and other new things, even the Shentan tribe he came from had never seen.
When the cold season passes next year, the Redwood Tribe will start to deal with other tribes, which will inevitably attract many yearning orcs to vote. The scale of the tribe will expand rapidly, and the future will be bright...
Zhan jumped up easily, casually picked a ripe sweet fruit from the tree and took a bite, lost in thought.
He has been looking for Jiao for so long, and has seen many tribes, only the Redwood tribe gave him a strong sense of threat.
This small tribe, which is currently in a peaceful corner, may eventually grow into a behemoth comparable to their "first tribe on the mainland".
——When the time comes, how will my elder brother who left home at a young age choose?
The overly sweet taste in the mouth made Zhan curl his lips in disgust, tilted his head and spit out the pulp in his mouth.
He hates such sweet things the most.
Suddenly, he heard a "swishling" sound in his ears, as if some animal was gnawing on food.
Being idle is also idle, Zhan quietly leaned over, and under a big tree, he saw a brown-red chubby bear gnawing on a fruit similar to his own.
war:"……"
This picture seems a bit familiar.
"Mang? What are you doing?"
The brown bear froze slightly, turned his head, moved his nose, sniffed out the breath of war, heaved a sigh of relief, stuffed the remaining half of the fruit into his mouth, chewed with his mouth swollen, and then changed back into a human form and whispered: " I'm going out to collect firewood."
Zhan was a little surprised and looked at Mang's height, which was two heads away from his shoulders: "It's so late, aren't you afraid of being in danger?"
This fat bear's eyes are not working well, are they?It was still night, how could his family be willing to let him out?
Mang tilted his head slightly, feeling a little unhappy that Xiang Zhan underestimated him so much.
But he was used to this feeling before, and he didn't argue, he just said lightly: "It's okay."
Zhan looked at the thin and frail little guy, thought for a while, this is at least Lu Yi's younger brother, and he should take care of it, so he said generously, "I'll go with you."
In this way, he can protect this ignorant little bear by the way.
Mang silently looked in Zhan's direction for a while, and finally nodded in agreement.
A bear and a lion walked slowly in the silent night, and when they found dry branches, they broke off, tied them into bundles with rattan, and carried them on their shoulders.
Considering Mang's thinness, Zhan purposely folded some for Mangdo and wanted to pass it to him, and after thinking about it, he simply carried it on his back.
Give it to this little guy directly after he goes back.
Gathering some dry firewood, Mang stopped under a tree, looked up at the crown of the tree, his slack eyes exuded deep desire.
Zhan squinted his eyes and looked over, and saw two bright red fruits on the tall tree crown, the kind that he just took a bite of and threw away.
I don't know how Mang's eyes can't see it.
"You want to eat that?" Zhan scratched his chin, a little surprised, "That's too sweet, it's not tasty."
Mang, who was about to climb the tree, paused his hands, pursed his lips, and then prepared to continue climbing: "It's none of your business."
Only then did Zhan feel that Mang seemed a little unhappy, thinking that he didn't seem to have angered him, but seeing that such a thin and small boy had to climb such a tall tree, he couldn't bear it, so he put down the firewood on his shoulder: "Wait, I'll Pick it up for you."
With a light jump on the spot, he grabbed the branch that had grown horizontally, climbed to the top of the tree in a few vertical leaps, stretched out his hand and picked the two fruits, looked at them in his hand, and curled his lips without any trace.
—I don't understand why the bear likes to eat this kind of food.
Zhan Zheng was about to climb down, when he lowered his head and inadvertently saw a pair of green eyes flashing through the bushes near the ground.
Wolf?
He shrank his pupils, and immediately jumped down from the top of the tree, ready to make a move before the wild wolf attacked Mang.
But it was a bit late, and the wolf seemed to be very hungry, so it rushed towards Mang directly from the bushes!
Zhan seemed to have seen the scene where the thin boy was thrown down and bitten by a hungry wolf.
"Snapped!"
What he didn't expect was that Mang, who was invisible to his eyes, turned into a grizzly bear in an instant before the hungry wolf pounced on him. The two fat bear claws hit the gray wolf's jaw precisely with force together!
The mandible and throat are the weak points of the wolf. The gray wolf was sent flying straight away, shaking its head and making two "woo" sounds, as if its head had been beaten.
At this time, the battle landed and turned into a lion. Before the wild wolf could react, it pounced on it and "clicked" and bit off its neck.
After dealing with the accident, Zhan changed back to human form, left behind the worthless wild wolf corpse, and walked over with complicated eyes: "Did you see it rushing over?"
Mang's reaction just now was unhurried, obviously he had already discovered the existence of the hungry wolf.
The red bear moved its nose and changed back into a human form, and replied flatly, "I smell it."
Before he came over, he could smell the fresh scent of wild wolves, and from the scent, he could tell that it was completely within his range of response.
Even if Zhan wasn't there just now, he could still pounce on and kill that wild wolf.
Zhan Weiwei was a little surprised: Although his sense of smell is also very good, it will be greatly weakened in the human form. Just now, he smelled a strange smell, but he couldn't determine when it stayed. Don't look down on yourself.
This little bear can smell so sensitively in human form?
No wonder a person dares to go out at night.
A keen sense of smell is more useful than sight at night.
Not interested in wolves, Mang raised his head: "Where's the fruit?"
Zhan jumped down from the tree just now, thinking about how to save Mang, how could he remember the fruit?Immediately a little embarrassed: "It may have fallen, I will look for it."
Mang rubbed his nose, sniffed, walked a few steps forward, and easily found two red fruits that had fallen on the ground.
Although it fell from a very high tree, the outer skin of this fruit is still hard and has not been broken.
With the sweet fruit in hand, Mang's mood instantly improved a lot, and he whispered his thanks to the battle: "Thank you."
Although he himself was able to pick the fruit safely, it was Zhan who helped him.
Although this lion orc is a bit annoying, he is still enthusiastic.
……
When Zhan returned to the courtyard with firewood, Jiao was feeding the sheep at the door.
The two sheep have gradually gotten used to being fed by Jiao and Lu Yi. They eat whatever they are given, but they often try to run away by pulling on the rope.
Lu Er plans to send the two sheep to the pigsty tomorrow to let them adapt to the new residence and new neighbors in advance.
Seeing Zhan come back carrying a lot of firewood, Jiao was a little surprised: "Why are you working so hard?"
He knew the younger brother's temper. Although he didn't know how to steal and play tricks, he was absolutely unwilling to put in any extra effort. Why did he work so hard this time to bring back a lot of firewood?
Zhan patted himself on the chest: "Brother, we are brothers, how can I not work hard on what you entrusted to me?"
Zhan intended to give many of these firewood to Mang, but Mang expressed his refusal in silence, and went home with only the part he had collected on his back.
Zhan had no choice but to come back with firewood, at least selling something here in Jiao.
Jiao looked him up and down suspiciously: "Did you fight?"
There is a bit of blood on the body.
Zhan briefly talked about what happened just now, and finally frowned: "Did I offend Mang somewhere?"
It feels like Mang has a bad attitude towards him.
Jiao sneered: "Mang hates others the most because his eyes look down on him, you deserve it."
He took two sticks of firewood and was going to boil some hot water for Lu Wei, Jiao waved his hand to tell Zhan to go back first, "Go back to sleep, remember to pick it up tomorrow."
Zhan beat his brother crazily in his heart, turned around resentfully, and was about to go back to sleep, when he suddenly heard Jiao's voice again, "Wait, what color did you say that wolf's eyes were?"
Zhan was taken aback: "Green."
Jiao's expression turned serious: "What green? Dark green? Light green?"
Zhan was a little bit dumbfounded: "Are you okay? You are a wolf at ordinary nights!"
Although my younger brother is not very reliable, but such a serious matter should not leak the news.
Jiao thought for a while, then pulled Zhan into the house, and told him about how he met a bull with dark green eyes in the beast horde, and a crow with dark green eyes a few days ago.
When the Shentan tribe was attacked ten years ago, Jiao was near the totem, and watched the orcs with dark green eyes attack the totem; Zhan was not near the battlefield at that time, but only heard about it.
Zhan was taken aback when he heard this: "Are you suspecting that those envoys have noticed this?"
"Maybe I haven't paid attention to it yet." Lu You provided his own judgment, "These beasts with dark green eyes should be the scouts of the envoys of God."
"What is a scout?" Zhan was a little curious.
"Probably refers to... the person in charge of inquiring about news."
Jiao was a little more serious: "This is the problem - the angel can transform ordinary beasts into guys like them."
These beasts are obviously not beastmen, but they have human emotions, which makes people shudder.
Zhan sat down and tapped his leg: "Isn't there an envoy in that Heihe tribe? Let's catch him and ask!"
Jiao agrees with this proposal: "Yes!"
Lu Wei was a little helpless: "It's going to be the cold season soon, do you want to go now? Besides, you are the target of the envoys, so you just go directly to the tiger's mouth?"
Zhan patted his chest: "I'll go!"
"Now go beat the grass and scare the snakes." Lu Wei shook his head, "Other tribes regard the envoys as gods. You go to the Heihe tribe to capture the envoys. Can you find evidence that the envoys caused divine punishment? If you can't find it, let the other tribes completely What if you are hostile to us?"
"Then what do we do?"
Lu You thought for a while, then turned around and took out something from the room and put it in Zhan's palm: "Use this to lure that envoy out."
Zhan looked at the red thing, sniffed it suspiciously, and immediately sneezed: "What is this!"
"This is chili pepper." Lu Wei explained with a smile, "The angel seems to be looking for someone through this."
……
Zhan and Jiao discussed the battle strategy for a long time, and finally finalized it temporarily. When the cold season is the coldest, they will attack the envoy who stayed in the Heihe tribe.
At that time, most of the orcs stayed at home and never went out. They also had enough reasons and methods to get the Heihe tribe out of the muddy water, so as not to make enemies for the Redwood tribe.
Talking about these beatings and killings in front of Lu Er, Jiao was a little worried at first, for fear that Lu Er would be disgusted.
Lu You saw Jiao's thoughts, smiled and patted his head: "Don't worry, I understand the principle of the strong preying on the weak."
Different civilizations have different development methods, not to mention the development of human society has also experienced a long process of barbaric slaughter.
But thinking of the development of civilization, Lu You has an idea that has been brewing for a long time, and now he can finally say it.
"Jiao, do you remember what I taught you to write last time?"
Jiao certainly remembered the feeling of his sub-beast holding his hand and writing the word "Lu Er" stroke by stroke.
"Do you think... if I pass on the text to everyone, there will be problems?"
Lu You frowned: "Is this a beast or an orc?"
"It's not like an orc." The horn changed back to a human form, pinching the crow's neck, with a dignified expression, "It's very similar to that bull."
He is obviously not an orc, but he has emotions that are a little bit beyond ordinary birds and beasts.
But there is no doubt that these guys with dark green eyes are inseparable from the envoys.
It may even be a "scout" created by the envoy.
"The envoy has already found this place?" Lu Er looked at the crow that was struggling and barking, shook her head and denied her guess, "No, this one seems to have come across us by chance."
Jiao recalled the last time he met the orcs of the Heihe tribe, and said that there was an envoy in their tribe, his eyes darkened.
It seemed that before he left the Redwood Tribe, he wanted to clean up that envoy.
"What about the bird?"
"I can't ask anything, let's kill it." Jiao's men forcefully twisted the crow's neck cleanly.
Lu You watched the bird fall to the ground lifelessly, squatted down and observed it carefully, and found that the dark green in its eyes still seemed to have a little life left, and there was a vague feeling of being stared at.
But for a moment, those dark greens became dead silent.
Lu You touched her ring subconsciously, raised her head and looked at Jiao, with some hesitation: "I always feel...it seems to know me."
Jiao also glanced at Lu You's ring, frowned, patted Lu You's shoulder lightly, and comforted him in a low voice: "Don't worry, I will take care of that envoy."
……
After taking Lu Wei back to the tribe, everyone had heard the lion's roar of joy before, and they didn't know what kind of happy event happened to Jiao, so they came over curiously to inquire.
For the time being, the matter of the envoy was not planned to be known to the ordinary people of the Redwood Tribe, so Jiao and Lu Er regained their emotions.

With Lu You's nod to confirm, Zitong was happy for Lu You on the one hand, but on the other hand he gave a sour look, a little bit unwilling: "In the future, if Lu Er has cubs, she won't be able to play with me."
Jiao didn't expect this sub-beast to think a lot, and glanced at him dissatisfied: "When did Lu Er play with you?"
Zitong made a grimace, turned around and ran away.
……
Lu You originally thought that when he found out that he was "pregnant", his old father Teng's performance was already exaggerated, but he didn't expect it to be even more exaggerated now.
During the day, Lu Er refused to do any physical work, even pouring water to feed the sheep, as if Lu Er was a crystal doll who couldn't stand a little bit of fatigue;
At night, because the weather was cold and it was not yet time to burn the kang, Jiao turned into a big lion every time to warm the kang, and then changed back into a human form and pulled Lu Er to sleep with him.
Now they're finally officially sleeping together.
In the past, Lu You only hugged and slept with a big furry lion, and slept with a human-shaped horn. At first, he felt very uncomfortable.
What I am not used to is not sleeping with other people, but lying in the corner's arms, with the corner's chest behind me. There is no such thing as pajamas in this era. They are completely skin-to-skin, and they can feel each other. The emitted temperature.
Just after confirming their relationship, both Lu You and Jiao couldn't help being a little excited.
But now there is a cub in Lu You's stomach.

In addition, Jiao also spent a lot of energy cutting the animal skins with thick fur into sections and wrapping them on the door cracks and windows to ensure that the house is as warm as spring when the cold season comes.
Other families followed suit and wrapped their own doors and windows with animal skins.
Lu Er's work in the experimental field has also temporarily stopped - not only because Jiao is circling around him like a big dog, but also because the weather is getting colder and it is not suitable for planting research.

"That doesn't work!" Jiao was very determined, without blinking his eyes, "Just let Zhan go."
The blond-haired orc brother who opened the door and came in for dinner was stunned when he heard this, with a bitter expression on his face: "Brother, I still have to work during the day."
"Go at night." Jiao didn't like this younger brother who came to eat every night, and said angrily, "It's not like you can't see."
The battle showed sadness.
When he was in the Shentan tribe, he was also considered a rich man. Although he did not do nothing, he always only focused on hunting, fighting, enjoying flowers, cheering and admiration. When did he do such a thing?
In the end, I found my brother, and was ordered around by my brother!
The point is, he still can't beat it!
Zhan sat beside the table indignantly: If it wasn't because he couldn't beat the horn, he wouldn't help the horn to pick up some firewood!
After eating, Zhan was chased away by Jiao to collect firewood.
As night fell, it was getting late, and most of the orcs and sub-beasts of the Redwood Tribe returned to their homes and prepared to sleep.
The nocturnal beasts in the wild also gradually began to move around, but because the orcs had cleared the vicinity of the tribe, the experienced beasts knew that this place should not be provoked, so they did not approach it tacitly.
Zhan has no fear of night.
If he couldn't adapt to the wild at night, he wouldn't be sent out by the tribe to find horns.
It's just that he is a real brother, and Jiao is hugging the soft Asian animal under the warm blanket to make love, so he can only walk on the cold ground to pick up hard firewood...
At first, he thought that Jiao just found a random sub-beast because he had no vision, but as his understanding of the Redwood Tribe deepened these days, Zhan became more and more aware of the special features of Lu Er, a sub-beast.
This sub-beast brought such earth-shaking changes to the Redwood Tribe.
Now the Redwood Tribe is not well-known just because its number is too small and it doesn't have much contact with other tribes.
Siheyuan, food, pottery, tools and other new things, even the Shentan tribe he came from had never seen.
When the cold season passes next year, the Redwood Tribe will start to deal with other tribes, which will inevitably attract many yearning orcs to vote. The scale of the tribe will expand rapidly, and the future will be bright...
Zhan jumped up easily, casually picked a ripe sweet fruit from the tree and took a bite, lost in thought.
He has been looking for Jiao for so long, and has seen many tribes, only the Redwood tribe gave him a strong sense of threat.
This small tribe, which is currently in a peaceful corner, may eventually grow into a behemoth comparable to their "first tribe on the mainland".
——When the time comes, how will my elder brother who left home at a young age choose?
The overly sweet taste in the mouth made Zhan curl his lips in disgust, tilted his head and spit out the pulp in his mouth.
He hates such sweet things the most.
Suddenly, he heard a "swishling" sound in his ears, as if some animal was gnawing on food.
Being idle is also idle, Zhan quietly leaned over, and under a big tree, he saw a brown-red chubby bear gnawing on a fruit similar to his own.
war:"……"
This picture seems a bit familiar.
"Mang? What are you doing?"
The brown bear froze slightly, turned his head, moved his nose, sniffed out the breath of war, heaved a sigh of relief, stuffed the remaining half of the fruit into his mouth, chewed with his mouth swollen, and then changed back into a human form and whispered: " I'm going out to collect firewood."
Zhan was a little surprised and looked at Mang's height, which was two heads away from his shoulders: "It's so late, aren't you afraid of being in danger?"
This fat bear's eyes are not working well, are they?It was still night, how could his family be willing to let him out?
Mang tilted his head slightly, feeling a little unhappy that Xiang Zhan underestimated him so much.
But he was used to this feeling before, and he didn't argue, he just said lightly: "It's okay."
Zhan looked at the thin and frail little guy, thought for a while, this is at least Lu Yi's younger brother, and he should take care of it, so he said generously, "I'll go with you."
In this way, he can protect this ignorant little bear by the way.
Mang silently looked in Zhan's direction for a while, and finally nodded in agreement.
A bear and a lion walked slowly in the silent night, and when they found dry branches, they broke off, tied them into bundles with rattan, and carried them on their shoulders.
Considering Mang's thinness, Zhan purposely folded some for Mangdo and wanted to pass it to him, and after thinking about it, he simply carried it on his back.
Give it to this little guy directly after he goes back.
Gathering some dry firewood, Mang stopped under a tree, looked up at the crown of the tree, his slack eyes exuded deep desire.
Zhan squinted his eyes and looked over, and saw two bright red fruits on the tall tree crown, the kind that he just took a bite of and threw away.
I don't know how Mang's eyes can't see it.
"You want to eat that?" Zhan scratched his chin, a little surprised, "That's too sweet, it's not tasty."
Mang, who was about to climb the tree, paused his hands, pursed his lips, and then prepared to continue climbing: "It's none of your business."
Only then did Zhan feel that Mang seemed a little unhappy, thinking that he didn't seem to have angered him, but seeing that such a thin and small boy had to climb such a tall tree, he couldn't bear it, so he put down the firewood on his shoulder: "Wait, I'll Pick it up for you."
With a light jump on the spot, he grabbed the branch that had grown horizontally, climbed to the top of the tree in a few vertical leaps, stretched out his hand and picked the two fruits, looked at them in his hand, and curled his lips without any trace.
—I don't understand why the bear likes to eat this kind of food.
Zhan Zheng was about to climb down, when he lowered his head and inadvertently saw a pair of green eyes flashing through the bushes near the ground.
Wolf?
He shrank his pupils, and immediately jumped down from the top of the tree, ready to make a move before the wild wolf attacked Mang.
But it was a bit late, and the wolf seemed to be very hungry, so it rushed towards Mang directly from the bushes!
Zhan seemed to have seen the scene where the thin boy was thrown down and bitten by a hungry wolf.
"Snapped!"
What he didn't expect was that Mang, who was invisible to his eyes, turned into a grizzly bear in an instant before the hungry wolf pounced on him. The two fat bear claws hit the gray wolf's jaw precisely with force together!
The mandible and throat are the weak points of the wolf. The gray wolf was sent flying straight away, shaking its head and making two "woo" sounds, as if its head had been beaten.
At this time, the battle landed and turned into a lion. Before the wild wolf could react, it pounced on it and "clicked" and bit off its neck.
After dealing with the accident, Zhan changed back to human form, left behind the worthless wild wolf corpse, and walked over with complicated eyes: "Did you see it rushing over?"
Mang's reaction just now was unhurried, obviously he had already discovered the existence of the hungry wolf.
The red bear moved its nose and changed back into a human form, and replied flatly, "I smell it."
Before he came over, he could smell the fresh scent of wild wolves, and from the scent, he could tell that it was completely within his range of response.
Even if Zhan wasn't there just now, he could still pounce on and kill that wild wolf.
Zhan Weiwei was a little surprised: Although his sense of smell is also very good, it will be greatly weakened in the human form. Just now, he smelled a strange smell, but he couldn't determine when it stayed. Don't look down on yourself.
This little bear can smell so sensitively in human form?
No wonder a person dares to go out at night.
A keen sense of smell is more useful than sight at night.
Not interested in wolves, Mang raised his head: "Where's the fruit?"
Zhan jumped down from the tree just now, thinking about how to save Mang, how could he remember the fruit?Immediately a little embarrassed: "It may have fallen, I will look for it."
Mang rubbed his nose, sniffed, walked a few steps forward, and easily found two red fruits that had fallen on the ground.
Although it fell from a very high tree, the outer skin of this fruit is still hard and has not been broken.
With the sweet fruit in hand, Mang's mood instantly improved a lot, and he whispered his thanks to the battle: "Thank you."
Although he himself was able to pick the fruit safely, it was Zhan who helped him.
Although this lion orc is a bit annoying, he is still enthusiastic.
……
When Zhan returned to the courtyard with firewood, Jiao was feeding the sheep at the door.
The two sheep have gradually gotten used to being fed by Jiao and Lu Yi. They eat whatever they are given, but they often try to run away by pulling on the rope.
Lu Er plans to send the two sheep to the pigsty tomorrow to let them adapt to the new residence and new neighbors in advance.
Seeing Zhan come back carrying a lot of firewood, Jiao was a little surprised: "Why are you working so hard?"
He knew the younger brother's temper. Although he didn't know how to steal and play tricks, he was absolutely unwilling to put in any extra effort. Why did he work so hard this time to bring back a lot of firewood?
Zhan patted himself on the chest: "Brother, we are brothers, how can I not work hard on what you entrusted to me?"
Zhan intended to give many of these firewood to Mang, but Mang expressed his refusal in silence, and went home with only the part he had collected on his back.
Zhan had no choice but to come back with firewood, at least selling something here in Jiao.
Jiao looked him up and down suspiciously: "Did you fight?"
There is a bit of blood on the body.
Zhan briefly talked about what happened just now, and finally frowned: "Did I offend Mang somewhere?"
It feels like Mang has a bad attitude towards him.
Jiao sneered: "Mang hates others the most because his eyes look down on him, you deserve it."
He took two sticks of firewood and was going to boil some hot water for Lu Wei, Jiao waved his hand to tell Zhan to go back first, "Go back to sleep, remember to pick it up tomorrow."
Zhan beat his brother crazily in his heart, turned around resentfully, and was about to go back to sleep, when he suddenly heard Jiao's voice again, "Wait, what color did you say that wolf's eyes were?"
Zhan was taken aback: "Green."
Jiao's expression turned serious: "What green? Dark green? Light green?"
Zhan was a little bit dumbfounded: "Are you okay? You are a wolf at ordinary nights!"
Although my younger brother is not very reliable, but such a serious matter should not leak the news.
Jiao thought for a while, then pulled Zhan into the house, and told him about how he met a bull with dark green eyes in the beast horde, and a crow with dark green eyes a few days ago.
When the Shentan tribe was attacked ten years ago, Jiao was near the totem, and watched the orcs with dark green eyes attack the totem; Zhan was not near the battlefield at that time, but only heard about it.
Zhan was taken aback when he heard this: "Are you suspecting that those envoys have noticed this?"
"Maybe I haven't paid attention to it yet." Lu You provided his own judgment, "These beasts with dark green eyes should be the scouts of the envoys of God."
"What is a scout?" Zhan was a little curious.
"Probably refers to... the person in charge of inquiring about news."
Jiao was a little more serious: "This is the problem - the angel can transform ordinary beasts into guys like them."
These beasts are obviously not beastmen, but they have human emotions, which makes people shudder.
Zhan sat down and tapped his leg: "Isn't there an envoy in that Heihe tribe? Let's catch him and ask!"
Jiao agrees with this proposal: "Yes!"
Lu Wei was a little helpless: "It's going to be the cold season soon, do you want to go now? Besides, you are the target of the envoys, so you just go directly to the tiger's mouth?"
Zhan patted his chest: "I'll go!"
"Now go beat the grass and scare the snakes." Lu Wei shook his head, "Other tribes regard the envoys as gods. You go to the Heihe tribe to capture the envoys. Can you find evidence that the envoys caused divine punishment? If you can't find it, let the other tribes completely What if you are hostile to us?"
"Then what do we do?"
Lu You thought for a while, then turned around and took out something from the room and put it in Zhan's palm: "Use this to lure that envoy out."
Zhan looked at the red thing, sniffed it suspiciously, and immediately sneezed: "What is this!"
"This is chili pepper." Lu Wei explained with a smile, "The angel seems to be looking for someone through this."
……
Zhan and Jiao discussed the battle strategy for a long time, and finally finalized it temporarily. When the cold season is the coldest, they will attack the envoy who stayed in the Heihe tribe.
At that time, most of the orcs stayed at home and never went out. They also had enough reasons and methods to get the Heihe tribe out of the muddy water, so as not to make enemies for the Redwood tribe.
Talking about these beatings and killings in front of Lu Er, Jiao was a little worried at first, for fear that Lu Er would be disgusted.
Lu You saw Jiao's thoughts, smiled and patted his head: "Don't worry, I understand the principle of the strong preying on the weak."
Different civilizations have different development methods, not to mention the development of human society has also experienced a long process of barbaric slaughter.
But thinking of the development of civilization, Lu You has an idea that has been brewing for a long time, and now he can finally say it.
"Jiao, do you remember what I taught you to write last time?"
Jiao certainly remembered the feeling of his sub-beast holding his hand and writing the word "Lu Er" stroke by stroke.
"Do you think... if I pass on the text to everyone, there will be problems?"
