Little Lord of the Beast World

Chapter 29 Double Standards

There were crowds of people around, and under the expectant eyes of everyone, Lin put a handful of burning hay into the firewood pile, and the flames slowly spread in the tunnel.

Because the movement of pottery making was too much to hide from others, Lin asked Artai to inform the villagers that a bonfire would be lit here today.So much firewood can't be wasted. The lively villagers came early and brought food from home to cook directly by the fire.

Everyone shared food with each other and didn't leave after eating. They continued to stay by the fire, chatting, talking, laughing, singing and dancing. Finally, it turned into a small bonfire party. Will make fun of himself.Lin silently observed his subjects.This group of simple orcs have simple minds and are easy to satisfy. As long as they have enough food, they will have nothing to worry about, and they are really comfortable to get along with.

Lin hoped that his people would always be happy like this, just like the guy next to him, who would never worry.

Hui didn't take Xiaolin to dance by the campfire today.Because he put in a lot of effort and did a lot of work today, so he shouldn't take credit for it from Xiao Lin.

As a foreigner, Xiao Hui's sense of presence in the Xuefeng Territory is probably second only to Xiao Lin, which is really rare in such a xenophobic Beastman Continent.The villagers all have a good impression of the young patriarch of the Snow Wolf Clan. He does so many things every day without work points or food.

It’s just that many young people are very unconvinced, thinking that they have seen Xiao Hui’s plot: "Do you think Xiao Hui is like a fool who likes to work for free? That is because he wants to kidnap our little lord." , Everyone should be vigilant against him! It's a pity that the adults don't listen to them, which makes the teenagers extremely distressed, and secretly determined to continue training and strive to join the guard team to protect their lord.

Hui doesn't care if someone treats him as an enemy again, he just needs to complete the task assigned by Xiao Lin.Every morning, he led his team of hot-blooded young wolves to patrol the breeding ground with arrogance, killing wild mice and rabbits wherever he went.I went back to eat breakfast and went hunting again. Every time the harvest was No. 1, the young man in the hunting team couldn't compete, so I had to ask him for hunting skills.He won't go out in the afternoon, he wants to accompany Xiaolin to do something.

Because it's already been said, Lin doesn't need to deliberately dismiss Xiao Hui.Hui was happy to find out that Xiao Lin didn't refuse his help recently.So Xiaolin collects the baskets he carries, Xiaolin writes and he cuts the paper, which orc is as capable as him?Gray super proud.Today Xiaolin led people to burn pottery, and he also came to help knead the mud.

The strength of Hui is really strong, kneading quickly and well.After he was done, he went over there to supervise the group of lazy people digging. After a few glances, he curled his lips in distaste: Sure enough, they are lazy people with such weak bones and slow movements. When can Xiaolin dig the hole he needs? ?He also knew that this group of people were punished by Xiao Lin to do heavy work, so he patrolled around like a supervisor, and the fierce eyes frightened these people to speed up their movements, knowing that it hurts him to beat people.It's just that the work is very poor, and Xiao Hui can't hold back the words of cursing.If he was a member of his own clan, he would have punched him up right now, but for Xiao Lin's sake he didn't do anything, he took a wooden shovel and went up to help.

Hum Chi Hum Chi dug the hard soil all afternoon, Rao Xiao Hui has a good body and great strength, and at night his arms are a little sore.Of course, he wouldn't honestly tell Xiao Lin that there was only a little soreness, and he wished it had been exaggerated ten times.Hui squatted beside Xiao Lin with a bitter face, wagging his tail, beating his arms, and humming, "Oh, it's so sour."

Lin was looking at his younger siblings, and didn't care about Xiao Hui.Campfires are dangerous, and cubs should not be allowed near them.A simple earthen stove was piled up next to the fire, and the fire was lit again. Mother and grandmother were busy frying white mushroom meat slices on a stone pot as big as a table, and the work of taking care of the three little ones fell on him.

This way of frying meat is still recommended by Xiaolin.The thick fat of animals is used to make fat. The fat and tender white mushrooms and meat are wrapped in rye flour. They are fried in the fat until they are crispy and tender. No additional seasoning is needed, and it is very delicious with a little coarse salt.

It's just that this method will make the oil temperature in the pot very high, which is very expensive. The stone pot will crack after being fired a few times. Grandma and mother don't often do it.In front of so many people today, the face-saving grandma showed her true skills and strived to become No.1 in the culinary world of the territory.

It is also because of the limitation of kitchen utensils that most of the orcs eat boiled and roasted meat. When they suddenly saw such a large plate of oily fried meat and smelled the smell of burnt meat, whoever could hold it back could not help but be attracted to it.

In the front is a group of little ones, looking eagerly at the stone pot, drooling with greed: "The meat from the lord's elder brother's house is delicious, it must be more delicious if you eat it."

Grandma and mother smiled and gave each of them a large piece of meat. The little ones jumped up happily and ran away sensiblely after getting the meat. Few children asked for it again.They have known since they were young that everyone should eat good things together, and if they eat one more slice, others will not be able to eat it.After the little ones finished eating, the aunts and sisters-in-law also tasted it, and immediately asked grandma for advice, and grandma taught them cheerfully, feeling very proud.

Lin quietly put his arms around his younger siblings, looking at his grandma's joyful expression.Hui unwillingly "hummed" a few words to attract his attention, so Lin had no choice but to turn his head, and saw the man's thick arms exposed, the muscle lines were very beautiful.Thinking that those lazy people who were punished to dig pits were so tired that they were out of shape, Xiao Hui was probably tired, so he said: "I have some ointment, let Artest take some and apply it to you, press it again, It won't be hard tomorrow."

Why is it different from what I thought?He doesn't need ointment or anything, he just wants Xiao Lin's comfort.Hui couldn't help but glanced at Artai, just as Artest was looking at him with his head tilted, both of them saw extreme disgust in each other's eyes.

Hui hurriedly looked back at Xiaolin to wash his eyes: "I'll let Aman press it for me." He was afraid that Artest would break his arm after pressing it.Hui beat Artest a few times by wrestling before, Artest must hold grudges.

Not only Artest, but many teenagers in the territory were dragged out for a competition for various reasons.Without exception, these teenagers had expressed their admiration for the little lord on many occasions, and they were singled out to stand out.It's a pity that there is no one in the territory. Adult orcs may not be able to beat them well, let alone these half-sized boys, they were all beaten in the end.This guy Hui tried to abduct the little lord again, and now he has almost become the public enemy of the teenagers in the whole territory.

After eating a small bowl of fried mushrooms, Lin continued to stand by the fire, waiting for the firewood to burn out.The flame kept beating, and the surroundings became quieter and quieter, and Xiao Lin fell asleep unconsciously.

In a daze, he seemed to hear Hui's voice.

"Xiao Lin, wake up, the fire is going out soon."

Lin opened his eyes, only to realize that he had fallen asleep in an indecent position.He sat recliningly on the cushion, with a thick mammoth leather mattress wrapped around his body, and his whole body was nestled into Hui's arms.Lin quickly sat up straight, under the hazy starlight, his cheeks were slightly flushed.

Hui crossed his arms, and had kept the posture of circling Xiaolin for a long time. He moved his arms quietly, and couldn't help admiring Xiaolin's beautiful sunset face for a while under the moonlight, and then said with a smile: "Chai The burning is almost over, and the night wind is a bit cold, so I woke you up first. Let's go over and see what's burned, and then go back to sleep." The firewood on the tunnel burned for more than three hours, and finally almost burned out .There was no heat around the campfire, Hui was afraid that Xiao Lin would catch a cold, so he cruelly woke him up.Xiaolin looked super cute when he was asleep, and he couldn't bear to wake him up.

Lin was still a little embarrassed, so he gave a low "um", stood up as if to cover up, and tidied his hair and clothes.

At this moment, it is estimated to be eight or nine o'clock in modern times. Grandma and mother have already taken their younger brothers and sisters back first, and most of the villagers have already left.There were only a few people left beside the fire, and they all knew that there were pottery blanks buried under the fire, so they did not leave in order to wait for the result.

Lin always went to bed early and got up early, but he couldn't feel at ease without seeing the result of the first firing with his own eyes.In the end, he fell asleep while waiting, and made such a big mess, which made him very annoyed.

He was still a little awkward, and walked slowly to the side of the ditch. There were still a lot of sparks in it, Wu and the others looked anxiously into it.

"Is the burn done?" Seeing that Xiaolin woke up, Wu hurriedly asked him.

Lin wasn't sure how long it would take, so he took a closer look and said, "It should be almost there. Let's find out when the temperature drops."

Everyone obediently stared at the fire.Wu was impatient, looked left and right, saw that there was nothing sparking, so he couldn't wait any longer, squatted aside and directly pulled the ashes away with his hands, and took out a dirty jar.The jar was still very hot, but as if he had found some treasure, he held it with his calloused hands without letting go, and carefully held it up to examine it over and over again.

"It's pottery! It's in good condition!" Wu exclaimed excitedly.

Now everyone couldn't wait any longer, squatted down one after another, impatiently searched through the ashes, and picked out all the pottery.

"It looks like most of them are good!" Everyone excitedly took the pottery to the reservoir to wash it, and then filled it with water.Some of the slabs seemed to be made too thin, and they were directly burned to split, and almost half of them were usable.

"Hahaha, God of Beasts bless you, let me, Xuefeng leader, make such a treasure again." Holding the pottery, Wu laughed loudly, his laughter was very like the cannon fodder villain in a film and television drama, vividly explaining what it means to be overwhelmed.

Hui whispered on the side: "Obviously it's because Xiao Lin is very thoughtful and has thought of everything, that's why he's so successful, how did he become the credit of the Beast God?" He saw with his own eyes how hard Xiao Lin worked every day, There are a lot of things to arrange, so I only praise the beast god.

Wu moved his ears, and glanced at the little foreigner: Young man, you seem very unconvinced?Do you know that Xiaolin respects me the most, the old man, I have a hundred ways to make Xiaolin drive you away.But for the sake of protecting Xiao Lin, let me spare you for now, hum!

Lin quickly pushed Hui aside.Use your eyes to signal him not to argue with Wu.Wu has a wealth of bickering experience. He once argued a wandering tribe's Wu to the point of defeat. Few people can compete with him.

Hui Hui hummed unconvinced, and was pushed to the side of the tunnel along with Xiao Lin's strength.Seeing that everyone was looking for pottery, he immediately went to pick up the pile of ashes with great interest, and soon found a dusty plate.It was really amazing. He saw with his own eyes that the clay bowls and pots put in the pit had become so hard after being burned by the fire that they could still hear a crisp sound when they were lightly tapped.

"It turns out that the pottery is really made of mud, and it's so expensive!" Hui looked at the plate, thinking more and more angrily.Those merchants are too treacherous, even if they burn them with some mud, they want so much gold and silver goods, robbing them.

Lin paused, and told Cang: "Tomorrow, I will sum up my experience, and burn it a few more times, and strive to improve from this time. Pick out the best ones and show them to those tribes at the Spring Plowing Festival. The things that need to be exchanged will be reduced compared to the previous pottery." [-] to [-] percent. Those who are inferior will be rewarded first to the villagers and potters with high work points.” He was not satisfied with the quality of this batch of pottery, many of them were asymmetrical and had strange shapes, which made people feel Very uncomfortable, still need to continue to improve.

Cang repeatedly agreed, thinking that he must lead people to think about improvements, so as not to disappoint the little lord.

Hui listened to Xiao Lin's instructions all the way, and could only smirk aside: Hehe, Xiao Lin still wants a little less than those profiteers.Xiaolin is smart, he can come up with such a magical pottery craft by looking at those tattered animal skin books, and he is also very good at business, it is perfect!

He looked at Xiao Lin with a smile on his face, and he loved seeing Xiao Lin discuss things with the adults in a serious manner, and his heart was about to melt again.

Lin glanced at this guy, the gray eyes made him a little misunderstood, and Lin said: "After a while, I will teach your tribe how to make pottery."

Hui hurriedly waved his hands: "That's not what I mean. It would be great to just learn a paper-making method for nothing. How can I always take advantage of you." He thought about it, didn't Xiaolin mean to take out this pottery-making technology to exchange for something? Well, if people are not stupid and refuse to come up with something to learn, Xiao Lin will definitely be sad.He hurriedly said: "Our clan should learn such a good method, Xiaolin, whatever you want others to give, our clan will also give a share."

This is okay, considering that the surrounding tribes are not rich, and it is impossible to ask them for many things, the Snow Wolf Clan will definitely not be short of those supplies.Lin thought for a while, then nodded lightly: "Yes." He had figured out Xiao Hui's temper, he was very stubborn, and his brain circuit was also different from ordinary people.He doesn't want to argue with Xiao Hui in the future, it's purely for himself.
