[Ting Yu] Abandoned in the wild

72. The Rescued Person

On the second day of the New Year's Eve, a blizzard really fell. Under the raging wind and snow, people's visual range was also greatly reduced. Naturally, they could no longer go out and had to stay at home.

In late autumn, Sanliu selected more than 30 single men from the tribe, and moved them into the guard house built at the gate of the city as guards of the new tribe.They are divided into three shifts every day to guard the gate of the city, the small bridge connecting the old and new tribes, and to walk and patrol within the tribe to protect the safety of the tribe.When it snows heavily in deep winter, it is often the time when the wild beasts lack the most food. No one knows what they will do to feed their hunger.Therefore, Chen Ting has stepped up the guard of the tribe in the past few days, asking the tribe to stay at home as much as possible unless there are special circumstances.

On the other hand, he also arranged for the patrolling tribe to check the snow accumulation on the roofs of each house every day, and notify immediately if there is a serious situation, so that manpower can be arranged to clean the roof as soon as possible to avoid the situation where the weight crushes the house.

After two or three days like this, due to concerns about Chen Ting's inconvenient legs and feet, the enthusiastic Senna, Lueshang and Mike took over the work of going out every day to follow the guards.The tribesmen restricted their movements because of the snow, so they had to take the work assigned by the tribe home to do it.Fortunately, the newly built houses are very warm. Sometimes several nearby families gather together during the day, and everyone talks and laughs while working, which is quite enjoyable.

Chen Ting and the others in this big courtyard have not been idle for the past few days, because of the change in the relationship between Sanliu and Lue Shang, a big man has moved into the room that originally belonged to Sanliu, and Yun Chao and Zhiyuan can no longer live in it. .Mike stared at his empty room for a long time, and suddenly covered his head and looked sick again. Several plants kept in the room instantly withered.Sanliu, under a pair of hot gazes, announced with a guilty conscience that Mike's body hadn't fully recovered and he still needed someone to take care of him.Looking around for a week, only Yun Chao, who has equal energy, can help.Helpless and annoyed, Yun Chao moved into his house with his luggage under Mike's "sincere" gaze.Ning Zhiyuan stood alone in the yard, completely ignoring the open door opposite An Yichen, turned around and entered Lingyue's house, and huddled with Tu Su who lived in the hut.An Yichen smiled wryly and shook his head. He completely ignored Chen Ting's mocking eyes, but he still turned around and went back to the room to carefully make a medicine mortar and pestle hewn out of stone.Ning Zhiyuan had already dried a lot of herbs in the autumn, and now that it was snowing and he couldn't go out, he planned to take this opportunity to grind some herbs that he needed daily into powder.Fortunately, Tu Su was calm and quiet, and with his cooperation, the progress of making the medicine was really much faster.

Chen Ting's house was still as lively as ever, there were two children running and jumping around the house, and Xiyu, who was self-cultivated, was not so boring.It’s just that every time he wakes up in the afternoon, the always gentle father will force the two children to follow him to learn characters with clay tablets.Now he can almost recognize all the characters in the book Sanliu.Speaking out a lot of knowledge, he was actually more proficient than Chen Ting.Chen Ting brought some wood back from the carpentry workshop, and planned to make some more furniture for the family, and also made the rabbit nest that he had promised his son.

So leisurely and busy, the first blizzard of winter finally stopped on the fifth night.There was a thick layer on the ground. Although walking was difficult, the clansmen who had been in the house for several days still ran out in a hurry. Many people were excited by the fresh experience of walking on the snow.

On the morning of the sixth day, Sai Na opened the door of Chen Ting's house early in the morning.During these days, he and Lue Shang and Mike helped Chen Ting manage the tribe's affairs. Every morning, he would come to Chen Ting's place to report yesterday's situation in the tribe, and discuss some ways to deal with it.

When they entered the room, both Xiyu and Chen Ting had just woken up. After washing their faces and rinsing their mouths, they were planning to make breakfast together.Seeing him coming, Xiyu directly pushed away Chen Ting, who was worried that he would be tired, and went to work alone.

Chen Ting and Sai Na sat down at the table and talked about the situation in the clan. Because of the blizzard, the wooden platforms on the city wall had accumulated a thick layer.It's rare that the weather is fine today, so we can take the opportunity to arrange for a few clansmen to clean up the wooden boards.Sena had inspected the family's house this morning. Although it was covered with heavy snow, the house was solid and he didn't feel any danger.But he still informed the clansmen, and after breakfast, they cooperated with each other to deal with the snow on the roof.The snow on the roads of the new tribe will be cleared before evening, and Sena asked Chen Ting about placing road torches for the tribe.The kindling is the everlasting bonfire on the square. The wood used for this kind of bonfire is repeatedly smeared with oil squeezed from chinchilla fat until it is completely soaked. Only this kind of wood will be ignited without fear of wind, frost and rain. Snow never dies.

Chen Ting had already thought about installing the torches when he was in the Limo tribe. He had also done a corresponding understanding of the layout of the entire new tribe before, and even drew it on the leather with charcoal.Now use it as a blueprint, Chen Ting marked out in detail for Senna the place where the torch needs to be installed.The materials to be used are all ready-made in the carpentry workshop, and the iron basin for holding the firewood has already been prepared by the dealer and placed in the warehouse.As long as the manpower is arranged properly, I believe this project will not be delayed for too long.

The two agreed on this matter, and they planned to discuss the rest with Mike after breakfast.Sai Na packed the leather that Chen Ting had drawn for him, and when he was about to leave the house, he suddenly remembered something.

"You mean there's another food shortage in the old tribe?" Chen Ting asked.

"Yes, in the past two days, I have seen the people from the old tribe following the hunting people to the door of Handa's house to collect food. People will be cold in snowy days, so naturally they eat more. Last time they hunted food Limited, originally planned to go again in the next few days, who would have thought that there would be a sudden blizzard, and their food would probably be finished." Speaking of this, Sena spat angrily, "I didn't expect that Handa was too much, I looked at the food taken away by those people from a distance, and it would be good for one child to eat for a day, how can I take care of the whole family? If they don’t have enough to eat and suffer from the cold, they might not be able to survive the winter.”

Chen Ting frowned, looking displeased, "Did you tell Uncle You Ya about this?"

"I told Uncle when I went to see him last night, and he seems to be planning to go to the old tribe this morning." Sena said.

"I see. You go back to eat first, and come back after dinner. I guess Uncle You Ya will be back by then."

"Okay." Saina agreed, said goodbye to Xiyu, turned around and went home.

Xiyu was making breakfast quietly all the time, and when he saw Senna leave, he turned around and walked to the displeased Chen Ting, "Is Ah Ting worried about the people from the old tribe?"

Chen Ting couldn't say that he was worried, he was not a gentle and generous person, and when Xiyu was running out of food, he didn't see anyone to help him.Therefore, Chen Ting did not have much affection for those people.It's just that all these things now stem from the fire of anger back then.He has no psychological pressure to punish ignorant and stupid people, but if the punishment is death...

He couldn't help looking at Xiyu's belly, it wasn't because he was superstitious, but now that he had this child around, his methods could no longer be ruthless.

He hugged his partner and put them on his lap, and said softly, "Although those people don't deserve sympathy, if they really starve to death and freeze to death, I think Uncle Youya will be worried."

Xiyu nodded in agreement, "Uncle has always been worried about the people in the old tribe. Uncle is very kind. What Xiyu didn't eat before was given to Xiyu and Azhan by Uncle and Zhiyuan. Xiyu Sheng Under Ah Zhan, my stomach hurts, and the uncle is taking care of Xiyu."

"So, Xiyu doesn't want to make uncle sad." Chen Ting looked at him with a smile.

Xiyu lowered his head shyly, "If everyone can be happy, Xiyu will be happy too." At this point, he suddenly showed a hesitant look, looking at Chen Ting, "Actually... Xiyu knows that Ah Ting is distressed. Xiyu. Those people don't like Xiyu, so Ah Ting is very angry."

An imperceptible coldness flashed in Chen Ting's eyes, "Those people don't understand Xiyu's goodness, they are stupid."

And stupid people are often not worthy of their own help.

"However, Xiyu won't be angry. Many people don't like Xiyu, but there are also many people who like Xiyu. Uncle Youya likes Xiyu very much and treats Xiyu very well, so Xiyu also hopes that uncle will not be sad .” Xiyu said sincerely.

Chen Ting kept looking into his clear eyes, and suddenly smiled after a long while, "I understand, Xiyu doesn't have to worry, I also hope that uncle can be happy. And now that Xiyu has a baby, even if it's for this child, I will I won't leave them alone." He said, reaching out to caress his partner's abdomen.

The firm lower abdomen is now a little soft. Although I still don't feel anything, it is really amazing that a new life can be born under the flesh.

Xiyu was rubbed comfortably by him, smiled docilely, and gently snuggled up to him.This satisfied look looks like a well-fed cat, showing the most lazy posture towards people.Chen Ting fell in love for a moment, couldn't help but hugged the person and kissed him.

Xiyu was kissed so that her heart beat faster, she clutched her chest and let her partner lick, lick and entangle her in her mouth until her breath became unstable before she let go.He had been tamed softly, and leaned weakly on Chen Ting's shoulder.

"Ah Ting...bad!" Xiyu whispered shyly.

Chen Ting laughed out loud at being teased by him, and wanted to be flirtatious when he embraced him.Xiyu didn't dare to struggle hard, and could only pouted and looked at the other person angrily, until the person felt embarrassed even with his thick skin, and was let go to make breakfast again.

The two children were woken up by the noise of their parents playing. After Chen Ting took them to wash their faces and rinse their mouths, Xiyu also made breakfast.The family of four sat around the kang table and had a delicious hot breakfast. After the meal, Chen Ting was in charge of washing the dishes, while Xiyu and the two children leaned on the kang to bask in the sun.

When Priest You Ya came back from the old tribe, Chen Ting had just wiped the dishes and put them in order.Sai Na and the old priest ran into each other at the gate of the courtyard. When they opened the door and came in, Lueshang and Mike had just come out after breakfast, and they entered Chen Ting's house together with the old priest.

Uncle You Ya was worried, so he didn't beat around the bush, and directly said that the old tribe's food was in short supply again.Chen Ting and the other four had similar thoughts, but only the old priest's worries made them have to worry.The last few people discussed for a long time, and decided to take the people from the old tribe out to hunt again.Mike remembered what Yunchao mentioned before that many animals would migrate to their tribal canyon in winter, and thought that it might be the nearest hunting ground.

I have also been to Senna, the canyon where the Deka tribe is located. There are indeed many rich animal and plant resources in it.As a newly married man, he also had his own selfish intentions, so he offered to take the hunting team to that tribe by himself. The back and forth would not exceed ten days, so he should be able to avoid the second snowstorm.

Mike observed the weather for a while, and he was sure that there would be no more blizzard within ten days, so he told Senna not to delay the trip.Several people discussed it again, and the old priest still came forward to gather the men from the old tribe who needed to hunt. They would gather at the gate of the new tribe city early tomorrow morning, and everyone set off to the east of the Deka Canyon.
