The fairyland of crossing

Chapter 19 The Thatched House

After spending two days laying out all the frames of the thatched cottage, Chu Jin and Su Heng began to transport leaves up the mountain together.

Chu Jin's space can't store things, so she can only rely on two people to carry her back, which is really hard.But thinking about the thatched cottage that was about to be built, Chu Jin felt that it was worth it.

The sudden appearance of such a large shelf next to Suheng's tent naturally aroused the discussion of many people in the tribe, thinking that they were still making something that they didn't know what to do in such a hot day, and they really had mental problems.

Although he was very busy, Chu Jin felt that both he and Su Heng were in good spirits, and Su Heng's complexion was also better than before, probably due to Lingquan's contribution.

When tying leaves on the shelf, Xu Zhu also came to help.In fact, at first he was only curious when he heard that Chu Jin had built a big shelf, so he came over to take a look, but when he saw that Chu Jin and Suheng were busy tying grass to the shelf, he also volunteered to ask help.This is not difficult, his movement is a bit slow, but it can be tied very firmly.

Suheng also enjoyed the process of tying the leaves, because when tying the roof, he could hold Chujin the whole time again!Although he still blushes and his body is still stiff, he really likes to hold Chujin, and at this time he always feels that he must be the happiest orc in all the land.

Because Su Heng was holding her firmly, and her height was just right, Chu Jin felt that the cooperation between the two of them was very good, and the work efficiency was also high. Su Heng was really steady and reliable.

It took a whole day to complete the roof part and the bottom circle of the house. The rest of the work is much simpler, and it will definitely be completed in another day tomorrow.

With a lot of achievements, Chu Jin asked Xu Zhu to have a hearty meal.

Although Xu Zhu still doesn't quite understand this thatched cottage, he feels that the place is really big, and he can run around in it!

After eating, Suheng went to wash the pots and dishes.Chu Jin picked up Xu Zhu, and the two sent him back together.

Xu Zhu didn't dare to turn into a beast and run around in this weather, and the cubs stayed obediently under the shade of the trees, they didn't want to run at all, and they didn't feel like bullying Xu Zhu anymore.Xu Zhu didn't stay with those cubs either, now he prefers to go to Chu Jin's place, or help grandpa move the animal bones wearing his little straw sandals.

Xu Cang knew that Xu Zhu had gone to Chu Jin and the others, and originally planned to pick him up later, but unexpectedly they sent Xu Zhu back.Every time Xu Zhu went to Chu Jin's place, Xu Cang didn't worry. Chu Jin and Su Heng didn't care about Xu Zhu despite their young age.Every time Xu Zhu came back after he was full, and would tell him what he had eaten today, what Suheng played with him and so on, which made Xu Cang feel a little embarrassed. After all, he didn't help Chu Jin and Su Heng, but his grandson received a lot of care from them, which made him feel ashamed.

However, he was also pleased to find that Xu Zhu was much more cheerful than before, and he was less timid. Although he was still shy, he was not timid.He naturally credited Chu Jin and Su Heng for this credit, after all, this was the change that Xu Zhu only had after being in frequent contact with them.

"Grandpa." Xu Zhu happily got down from Chu Jin's body and hugged Xu Cang's leg.

Xu Cang stroked his hair, and said to the two: "Xu Zhu has caused you trouble again."

"Nothing, Xu Zhu may have done it today and helped us a lot." Chu Jin laughed.

When Xu Cang heard this, he was also a little happy, but he still said: "How can he be of help as a child, as long as he doesn't make trouble for you."

Chu Jin took La Xuzhu's little hand and said, "Xiao Xuzhu is very capable, right?"

"En!" Xu Zhu nodded vigorously, showing a big smile.

Children always want to be affirmed, especially after he has helped adults, which is very important for building children's self-confidence.

Su Heng looked outside the tent, and saw many people strolling towards the center of the tribe.

"What's going on tonight?" Su Heng asked.They live on the fringes of the tribe, and a lot of news is not known as quickly as those who live near the middle.

"Oh, the clan witch is going to hold a sacrifice, and wants to pray for the weather to return to normal." Xu Cang said, his tone seemed not very interested in the sacrifice.

"Oh." Su Heng responded lightly, seemingly not interested.

"Do you want to go there?" Chu Jin asked.Looking at the posture outside, it seemed that everyone was going to pass.

"Well, this is a big event in the tribe, and everyone must attend." Xu Cang said.In fact, he has lived to such an old age and has seen countless sacrifices, so he can't say whether it is useful or not, but since his son is gone, his awe of the beast god has also faded.Because he felt that the beast god did not bless his son, nor did he take care of his family.

Chu Jin nodded and didn't ask any more questions.

Seeing that the time was almost up, a group of four went to the place where the clan witch offered sacrifices.

The place of worship was chosen in an open space in the center of the tribe.At this time, the fire had been lit, and a simple sacrificial altar was made of wood in front of the fire, on which some dead beasts were neatly placed as sacrifices.

Everyone stood at the edge of the sacrificial area, no one spoke or whispered, everyone looked serious, and seemed to be in awe of their beast god.

Chu Jin stood in the crowd. As a cultivator, he didn't believe this.Especially on the premise that he thinks the clan witch is a liar, everything the clan witch does is a joke to him.

The weather suddenly became so hot, in his opinion, it was due to the climate, as if every year there would be floods in some places, drought in some places, and typhoons in some places... It was not controlled by man, let alone by divine power.Of course, a cultivator can indeed brew such a disaster with his own magic power, but often no one will do this. A cultivator pays attention to good fortune and will not harm innocent people and ruin his practice.

After a while, I saw the clan witch in a cloak walking to the sacrificial altar, ready to start the sacrifice.

The clan witch wrapped himself up quite tightly, which was really weird in such a hot weather.The clan witch is a bit stooped, obviously a bit old.

Standing in front of the sacrificial altar, the clan witch first took out some hay, piled it in a small pile in front of the altar, and then lit it.This kind of dry grass does not have a big open flame after being ignited, there are only a few sporadic points, but the smoke is relatively large.The clan witch knelt in front of the sacrificial altar, chanting words.He didn't speak a language he could understand, so no one knew what he was reading.

After chanting for a while, the clan witch stood up, took out a bundle of green willow-like plants tied around his waist, and began to dance around the fire, still chanting words, all in a trance, babbling.

Chu Jin didn't know what the clan witch ordered, and she couldn't smell anything from such a distance.He knew that some grasses would put people in a trance state, and then make people think they were communicating with the gods.Chu Jin didn't know if the hay of the clan witch had the same effect, so it's not good to jump to conclusions, just take a look.

The clan witch danced around the fire for a long time, and then ended the dance with unsteady steps, panting, as if he was about to faint in the next moment.

Several young orcs hurried up to support him, and the patriarch also walked over.

The clan witch nodded to the clan leader.

The patriarch smiled gratifiedly, then turned to the tribe members around him and said loudly: "The clan witch has finished the sacrifice, and the beast god will definitely bless us!"

A group of people who were still very quiet cheered together, as if the weather had cooled down now.

Let everyone cheer for a while, the patriarch raised his hand, and everyone became quiet again.

The patriarch said: "The priests of the clan witches are very hard. These few days need to rest well. If there is nothing important, don't disturb the clan witches to rest."

A group of people responded, and they seemed to be looking forward to the temperature returning to normal tomorrow morning.

Chu Jin looked at these people and felt a little funny.In this kind of weather, anyone who wears the thick clothes of the clan witch and jumps for such a long time will be dizzy.Perhaps this is the way of sacrifice that has been handed down by the tribe for many years, and people here believe that after sacrifice, everything will be better tomorrow.

Chu Jin wasn't ready to decide whether this sacrifice was right or wrong, or whether it was useful.Anyway, the whole process didn't infringe on anyone's interests, and didn't use living sacrifices, so let them go. Anyway, it's more of a psychological comfort.

As Chu Jin thought, the weather did not cool down the next day, but became hotter.

Looking at the blue sky without a single cloud, Chu Jin smiled and continued to build his thatched cottage.Everything else is fake, and the real thing is to live more comfortably.

Before dinner, the thatched cottage was finally built.The house is big, spacious and cool.

Suheng moved all the things in the tent to the thatched cottage, and it was considered to be officially living in the new home.

For this place, Su Heng still feels very novel, and can't help but look around, secretly happy and happy.

Lying in the thatched hut, Chu Jin also felt in a good mood.Although I have been a little tired these days, I feel that everything is worth it when I see the fruits of my labor.

If the large space can store more things, the beds don't have to be next to each other, and the beds can be made larger than before.

This made Su Heng feel a little bit disappointed - the place is bigger and more comfortable, but this way he can't be with Chu Jin all the time!

After resting for a while, Chu Jin got a little hungry, so she got up and went out to cook.

Originally at this time, Su Heng would definitely take the initiative to let Chu Jin rest and do it by himself, after all, he cooks more than Chu Jin these days.

But now, Su Heng is not in a hurry to go out.After confirming that Chu Jin had set up the pot and would not come in for the time being, he stood up, secretly moved his sleeping place to Chu Jin's side, put the animal skins of the two together, and put the animal skin back Original size so they can get closer together!

After doing this, Su Heng stood up and looked at the two beds next to each other, blushing, but still very happy in his heart.

Immediately after adjusting the expression on his face, Su Heng went out to help Chu Jin cook as if nothing had happened—anyway, if Chu Jin asked, he would... He insisted on not admitting it, saying that it was originally made like this!

After the meal, the two of them sat for a while, and then went into the house to rest.Chu Jin was really tired and wanted to go to bed early.

As soon as she entered the room, Chu Jin discovered the problem with the bed, but she just smiled and didn't expose it.He knows that Su Heng has no sense of security, if this can make Su Heng feel at ease, he thinks it's fine.

After Su Heng came in, Chu Jin closed the door of the thatched cottage, tied the rope from the inside, and then lay down.

Su Heng lay down next to Chu Jin, feeling very satisfied - Su Heng didn't find anything, it was great that they could still sleep so close.

Not long after Chu Jin lay down, she fell asleep.

On the other hand, Su Heng, although he was also very tired, was excited and didn't fall asleep for a while.

Turning over to Chu Jin's side, he couldn't see Chu Jin's face clearly in the darkness, but he could hear Chu Jin's light breathing.This thatched hut is really good, cooler than a tent, and has a very comfortable smell of grass.But after the thatched hut was built, he couldn't hold Chu Jin anymore, which made him feel a little pity.

Or, after a while when Chu Jin has rested, he will discuss with Chu Jin and build another thatched cottage!
