Rebirth in Another World: Beginning of the Orcs

Chapter 36:

After sending off the orcs of the Bear Tribe and making clothes and shoes, the snow season came quietly.

The room was warmed by the fire in the stove, Li Xia sat on the head of the bed and sorted out the animal skins in the cabinet one by one.Yadi was still asleep on the hot kang, maybe he was dreaming of delicious food, and he smacked his mouth from time to time, and the crystal saliva flowed down his plump cheeks into a line.Li Xia had to put down the things in his hands and turn around to wipe them gently for him.

A while ago, Lixia Subi Morinda worked out a down jacket and cotton shoes. As soon as he wore them out, there was a sensation in the tribe and a wave of learning. Although the weather has cooled down, there are still many orc females walking outside.Ernst sorted out the firewood outside the house, and stacked the bundles under the shed at the bottom of the kitchen wall.When encountering thick branches, it is inevitable to pick up the stone ax and split them.Before the Bear tribe left, Hockley helped him collect a lot of dry stalks and branches, which saved them from having to worry too much about burning fires for warmth after the snow season.

Ernst split the firewood again and again, and every time he swung the stone ax, his body would stretch out a perfect arc. The thin sweat stains oozing from his forehead formed a strong contrast with the outdoor weather. The air collided together to faintly form a puff of white air.After working, Ernst looked back at the window of the room. Although the wooden window was closed and he couldn't see anything, he just knew that there was his lover and child separated by a wall.He could even imagine the smile on the corner of Li Xia's mouth at this time.

The dry grass in the yard was spread thickly on the top and bottom of Gulu Bird’s shed. The weather is getting colder and colder, and people can’t stand it, let alone birds. This is necessary to eat fresh eggs.In the tail of the next dry season, the tribe went to the seaside together again, and not only brought back the salt needed for the whole snow season, but also brought a lot of seafood. These things really made the tribe busy again.Now the storage room at home is full of piles, meat alone accounts for most of it, plus all kinds of vegetables grown at any time in the Lixia space, Ernst can be said to be laughing from the corners of his mouth to his ears.So many goods received were unprecedented, even when he was a child, when his father and mother were still alive, the food reserves did not exceed one-third of what they are now.The food products harvested after the arrival of Lixia are enough for the wolf tribe to spend a prosperous snow season.

When Yadi woke up, there was no one around, so he pouted involuntarily.A while ago, Bolton the Bear was always accompanying him crazy, so much so that he forgot that he was the only child in this family. Now that the Bear tribe has gone back, he is left alone, and his little fat face is pinched every day. Gone are the happy days of waking him up, sharing delicious food, and tugging the guru's tail when he's idle.This contrast makes Yadi very unhappy.

After rolling around in the animal skin quilt for a few times, he took out a piece of dried meat that he had secretly hidden the night before and stuffed it into his mouth. Yadi remembered that when Bolton was leaving, he invited himself to be a guest of the Bear Tribe in the dry season next year. I was overjoyed at first, but then fell down again, this annoying snow season.Boring and not wanting to wake up, Yadi nestled in the bed irritably and made a series of complaining sounds.

Li Xia is cooking lunch in the kitchen, and the food tastes warmer when it is cold. Li Xia intends to simply rub some mochi. The face is awake in the basin, and there are all kinds of washed and shredded rice on the table. Diced greens.When the Xiong tribe went back, Lixia brought a lot of things to Hockley, except potatoes, mushrooms, cabbage, salt, a pack of peppers, and even a jar of soy sauce.Anyway, the quantity is small, and the Hockley family is hungry, so they are not afraid of being known by others.As for the Lixia share from the Bear Clan patriarch's family, Sailor was dragged back to bring it back. Instead, he gave a lot of cabbage seeds. The cabbage has a short growth cycle, which is just enough to add some food to the Bear Clan tribe in winter.

As soon as Ernst finished tidying up the yard and entered the door, he heard his son moaning on the kang, and couldn't help but find it funny.It's no wonder that Li Xia laughed and scolded his son the humming beast before, but looking at it this way, it really looks a bit like it.In the past few days, Ernst has noticed Yadi's depression. In fact, this is just his reluctance to give up his new friends, and it will be fine after a while.Ernst wasn't going to comfort him either, but instead planned to take him to the central open space to find other little orcs to play with.The older children of BYD have already started to learn hunting. When there is no prey in winter, they practice throwing in the open space to increase their accuracy. Although BYD will not be able to go out for large-scale hunting like these children in the future, it is good to practice now.

Yadi was bored, so he would be very happy to see Ernst come in. As soon as Gulu got up from the bed, he stretched out his arms and wanted to hug him.Seeing that his son was naked, Ernst hurriedly took the clothes on the kang and put them on for him.Because children grow faster, Yadi's cotton clothes are made wider, and his hands and feet can't be seen after wearing them. Ernst carefully helped him roll up the sleeves and trouser legs before putting on the animal skin Down jacket.

To say that the cotton underwear is good, it is soft and comfortable to wear next to the skin.The cotton cloth Ernst Hockley brought was intended to be used by Lixia and Yadi, but Lixia even made one for him.Now a family of three wears cotton clothes next to their skin when they sleep, and they are not afraid of freezing at night. After getting up in the daytime, they can directly put on animal skin winter clothes outside and go out.It is much stronger than before with the arms and legs exposed to the cold.

Ernst took hot water from the pot on the stove and mixed it with Yadi's face wash water. Yadi learned that Abba was going to take him to his older brother to have fun, so he put a cotton towel on his face If you just touch it indiscriminately, you will run outside.It was Ernst who couldn't stand it anymore, grabbed him and scrubbed him carefully before letting him go.

Ben just took advantage of the time before the meal to come out for a stroll, and Ernst didn't force Yadi to eat something to satisfy his hunger.Yadi thought he was hiding the jerky under the pillow and no one would find out. In fact, the two adults just didn't want to break his stupid hiding mode.Just standing outside the wide-open window, you can see Yadi's little look of complacency while stuffing jerky under the pillow. This is also a small pleasure for Lixia and Ernst, isn't it?

The father and son dragged the older one all the way to the open space, where several children were already practicing throwing.Following Wag's order, everyone threw the stones in their hands in a dignified manner.Circles with different distances and nears are drawn on the opposite ground as throwing targets. Although the children have a uniform pace, it is unknown whether they are young or have just started practicing, and almost none of them are accurate.There was even a weird one that was thrown in the opposite direction, and it was thrown quite far...

It was the first time for Yadi to see these, and he blinked curiously.But those children who practiced stopped their movements when they saw Yadi's arrival.They all knew about Yardie's broken arm being adopted by Ernst, and some of the older children had even met him before.But when they saw Yadi being pulled by Ernst, the children felt dazed for a while.Look at that little fat face, look at that chubby short winter melon figure, these skinny little wolf cubs are incomparable to others.How much does it take to grow like this? I'm really worried about whether Uncle Ernst's food can be eaten until the end of the snow season.

But after thinking about it, these children are still very simple after all.Then someone came forward to pull Yadi to play with them.

The child who came forward was Pano, the little male of Uncle Crowe’s family. He was several years older than BYD. His mature thinking allowed him to know a lot of things, and he also sympathized with the child with only one arm.Seeing the curious eyes of the little guy turning around, he couldn't help coming forward to talk, and by the way, he reached out and pinched Yadi's fat face. "Little Yadi, I'm Brother Pano, come and play throwing with us."

Yadi has long been itching to watch them play. Now that there will be Pano's invitation, he immediately turns to look at Ernst. Maybe he is afraid that Ernst will not allow him, so he uses a pitiful expression. Ernst It was funny, and he said hello, don't make trouble, and let him go.Yadi yelled happily when Ernst agreed, and took Pano to the children's pile.After all, a child is a child, and it only takes a few words to become friends. In just a short while, Yadi recognized the faces of the laughing children around him one by one.

Wag, who was teaching next to him, was not annoyed when he saw these unorganized and undisciplined children. He arranged them in a row again, and explained it to Yadi, regardless of whether he could understand or not, and held hands by the way. Taught him to throw a stone once.Yadi watched the stone fall steadily in the farthest circle, and suddenly smiled, and patted his legs with his small arms.That feeling of complacency was as if he had done all the previous throws by himself.With this successful demonstration, Yadi's enthusiasm was really raised. He picked up all the small stones from far and near on the ground with his buttocks and piled them up in front of him. posture.

Yadi was the smallest, and Wag drew a circle on the ground a little closer to those circles to signal Yadi to throw.Yadi was also unambiguous, and followed the other children to throw stones according to the command.The five-short figure with a fat ball made every step and every movement, and Ernst, who was watching, couldn't help laughing.But looking at his expression, he became serious again.

He raised his hand and threw it in a lunge. Although the action was simple, Yadi did it very seriously.Ernst found that as Yadi became more proficient in his movements, the number of stones thrown into the circle gradually increased.At the beginning, due to unfamiliarity and too little strength, all the stones thrown fell far outside the circle.But gradually the position of the small stones falling closer to the circle, and then more and more stones hit the circle line, until finally they were all thrown into the circle.

Ernst knew that although the circle drawn by Wager was a little closer than others, that distance was not so easy for Yadi to throw in.But as more and more stones entered the circle, Ernst had to admit that Yadi had a talent for throwing.The first is hit rate, and the second is accurate throwing power.You must know that the stones that Yadi just threw are not the same size.Ernst couldn't help thinking, if Yardie's arm hadn't been broken, what a formidable warrior he would have grown up with such control.
