Reborn general seven centimeters

After the two made an agreement, Tout discussed some details with him and then went home.

Before dawn the next day, there was a crackling sound from the next door to Touter's room, and Jacob took a bunch of his own little things to the Campbell's next door.

As if growing up overnight, Jacob became much more sensible. Not only did he start to help take care of the family, he even started to help with Campbell's side, and even Ralph couldn't help but praise him for being so much more sensible.

At first, Tao Te thought that he would give up after not being able to persist for a long time, but he did not expect that this time he was very persistent, and he persisted for nearly half a month without complaining of being tired.

However, Jacob's careful care made Tao Te feel a little uneasy.

As if confirming his uneasy heart, Campbell's injury did not improve, and after resting for more than half a month, his face became more and more ugly.At first, he was just a little tired, but now his face was pale, and even his lips were a little purple, as if his body was suddenly tired.

Tout had once or twice expressed his concern to Sidney, who in turn reassured him that it was nothing serious, but that Campbell's long fatigue had broken his body at once.He said that as long as he had a good rest for a while, he would get better.

At the end of autumn and the beginning of winter, a heavy rain poured down, taking away the last trace of warmth in the whole summer.

The cold seemed to be an assassin who came suddenly, and before anyone could react, the cold had already pierced into the bone marrow.It caught people off guard.

The heavy rain lasted for a very long time. Tout originally planned to go to the woods after the rain stopped to see if there were any missing beasts, but he couldn't leave the village too far alone because the rain didn't stop.

In order to prevent the heavy rain from freezing the herbs in the yard, Tao Te pulled out the herbs he had planted in the yard in batches, and then sent them to the tribal doctor to exchange some red shellfish with him, making the last last resort for winter. Field preparation.

There are also a few orcs scattered on the street selling some food, making final preparations for winter.

Tao Te, who had changed something on the street, came home wearing his coir raincoat, but he immediately threw the rain-soaked coir raincoat aside as soon as he entered the door.

Inside the house, Jacob had already prepared a thick coat of animal skins.

Seeing Tao Te enter the door, he immediately brought the animal clothes in front of Tao Tao.

"I'm going to boil the water," Jacob said.

Although the coir raincoat is waterproof, it can't prevent the cold. He has been frozen so far that his lips are a little purple.

Seeing Taut like this, Jacob was a little worried.

In this kind of weather, he didn't want to go out at all. Tout said he wanted to go to Jacob and stopped him before, but Tout insisted that he had to give up.

Tao Te nodded and signaled Jacob to boil water. The weather was so cold that his teeth were shaking a little.

Usually, there is always hot water at home, but in this weather, even the hot water that has just come out of the pot will soon turn cold, so Jacob has been keeping the water temperature on the court, only waiting for his return, then increase the firepower Bring to a boil to keep Tao Te from the cold.

But it will take some time, Tao Te sat in the living room wrapped in a fur coat, staring at the rain in the yard in a daze.

"I might have to go out tomorrow," Taut said.

"Why?" Jacob held a large porcelain bowl in both hands, which was half full of water, and walked towards him cautiously step by step.

He is not used to doing these things, and he has to be extra careful every time he takes a step, and be careful whether the water in the bowl will pour out.

After finally walking in front of Tao Te, he had to put the bowl on the table because the mouth of the bowl had begun to develop.

He looked around the room but couldn't find anything to fan the wind, so he squatted beside the table, puffed his cheeks and blew on the steaming water of the soup in the bowl.

Foggy white water vapor permeated all around because of his blowing, hitting him in the face.

It was warm, making his cheeks flush.

After blowing for a while, he touched the mouth of the bowl with his hand, and then continued to blow until the water in the bowl was no longer so hot, then he picked up the bowl and handed it to Touter.

"Why do you have to go out in such heavy rain!" Jacob was a little puzzled. In his opinion, the things in the warehouse were enough for him and Tao Tao to live through the whole winter.

But during this period of time, Tao Te did not give up looking for food, but became more active and hardworking, leaving early and returning late.

"The rain should be much less tomorrow morning, and there should be a lot of mushrooms in the woods at this time," Tout said.

"Mushrooms?" Hearing that, Jacob's eyes lit up immediately. Ever since he became the current body, he has never had the chance to see the food he once had, and the tribe he once had left forever like a dream. His life and vision.

This was the first time he had heard anything related to him.

"It's that white thing that looks like a hat. It grows on the ground and tastes great. Although it can't be left for too long, we can eat it during this period of time." Tout thought Jacob didn't know , roughly sketched a shape with your fingers.

After drinking half a cup of hot water, the coldness subsided immediately, and Tao Te finally regained some vitality, as if he was alive again, and his hands that were frozen stiff also gradually warmed up.

"I know about mushrooms, can I go with you tomorrow?" Jacob became a little interested. When he was young, the food was taken care of by others. He didn't pick mushrooms himself, but he also knew about mushrooms. Things because he once saw the people around him picking them when he was on a mission.

However, the mushrooms at that time were too huge for them, and they could barely lift them with all their strength, and they couldn't finish them.

In this season, many villains in their tribe will store these small white or gray mushrooms, and then for a long time, the tribe will emit a faint fragrance.

In the past, Jacob didn't have much requirements for food, as long as he could eat it, it would be good if he didn't starve to death, but he himself remembered the taste.

Because only when he is alone, when no other people around him are staring at him viciously, can he savor everything around him carefully.

That period of silence was precious to him, the damp and cold air in the dark hut and the faint smell of food in the air...all these seemed too extravagant to him, so the impression was very deep.

"Yes, yes, but tomorrow morning you may have to go out very early, and it will be very cold, can you bear it?" Tao Te asked, not understanding why Jacob was suddenly so interested in this kind of thing.

"I can get up, and I'm not afraid of the cold!" Jacob said, and he thought for a while before saying, "May I pick some for Uncle Sidney?"

"Okay, whatever you want, but if you can't get up tomorrow morning, I won't care about you." Taut said.

During this period of time, Campbell's injury has not improved. This time, he naturally couldn't sneak out of the house. The task of getting up early to collect mushrooms naturally fell on him and Jacob.

Jacob nodded solemnly, clenched his hands into fists, "I'll get up."

In the early morning of the next day, the sky was still completely dark, and there was not a single ray of light coming through from the other side of the sky.

The rain was still falling, and in the darkness, the sound of drizzling was heard continuously, but these sounds seemed to indicate that one day it would be much quieter than yesterday.

Taut woke up early, didn't miss the warmth of the bed at all, put on his clothes, ran to the next room, and forcibly pulled Jacob, who was still curled up with the quilt, up from the bed.

Jacob obviously hasn't woken up yet, he sat on the bed drowsily with the quilt in his arms, his little head almost knocked against the bedside table.

"Hurry up and get dressed, or I won't take you there." Tout threw his clothes on the bed, then turned around to toss the coir raincoat and the pannier that he wanted to take away.

But when he got everything ready, he returned to the room and found that the person on the bed was still sitting on the bed, his head was still bit by bit like a chicken pecking rice.

Tout thought it was funny, and walked forward, he looked at Jacob who was sleepy and drowsy, thought about it in his mind, and stretched out his cold hands to the back of his warm neck.

"Ah!" Frightened by the cold touch, Jacob, who was still drowsy, woke up instantly.

He hugged the quilt with both hands and shrank to the corner of the bed, and then kicked Taot——the hands hard.

Because he just woke up, his cheeks were still red, he pouted slightly and looked at Tao Te with his eyes wide open, aggrieved, as if he was very dissatisfied with his actions just now.

"Hurry up and get dressed, or I won't take you there and leave you alone at home." He sat on the edge of the bed very funny.

Hearing this, Jacob remembered the agreement between the two of them last night. He hugged the quilt, and struggle appeared in his eyes. The temperature in the morning was even lower, and he was already too cold just sitting on the bed. He had to go out in the rain and pick mushrooms, so he couldn't help shrinking his neck.

It must be cold outside the house, and he couldn't bear such a warm bed.

"I'm leaving." Taut, who knew Jacob very well, got up immediately, pretending to leave.

The struggle in Jacob's big black and white eyes became more and more obvious. Seeing that Tao Te was about to go out, he immediately got up from the bed with all his hands and feet, and shouted: "I'm going, I'm going If you want to go, wait for me, don't go."

As if he was terrified that he would be left behind, Jacob quickly put on his clothes on his hands and feet, ignoring the cold. After putting on his clothes, he trotted out the door and followed Taut's pace .

When he went out, the radiator brought by the quilt was immediately dispelled, and he couldn't help shivering, then looked at Tao Te pitifully.

However, Tao Te had no choice but to pick up the coir raincoat and throw it to him for him to put on.The back basket is naturally two people, one person.

The sky hadn't dawned yet, because of the rain, Jacob couldn't tell what time it was, he followed Tao Tao and left the house, walking towards the wet and cold woods go.

After leaving the tribe and entering the woods, the surroundings became lively.

In addition to Taut and Jacob, there were other orcs who also thought about collecting mushrooms, so everyone went out early.

Moreover, many of the orcs got up earlier than them. When the two of them arrived, there were already white mushrooms in the back baskets behind the others.

Seeing this, Jacob, who was still afraid of the cold, immediately perked up.

Angrily, he pulled the rope of the basket on his back, and began to look around for mushrooms.

But it was still early, and there was no light in the woods, which seemed a little dim. He turned around and didn't see any mushrooms.

In the distance, Tao Te beckoned to him to let him go, "Don't go too far, follow me."

Mushrooms are not everywhere, and the places where mushrooms are produced also have various requirements. Orcs who understand all this can easily find them, like how Jacob bumped around like a headless chicken, and found mushrooms The chances are very small.

Tao Te briefly explained to Jacob the direction to look for, and then said: "Not all mushrooms can be eaten, those beautiful ones with bright colors are mostly poisonous, so don't pick them randomly."

Jacob nodded, but at this moment he already had the heart to compare with the orcs around him, and his thoughts were all on the ground, not in Tout's words, all he was thinking about was collecting more mushrooms and sending some to Sidney.

Knowing that Jacob hadn't heard any more, Tout didn't bother him anymore, but started looking around for mushrooms.

It was still raining, and the leaves in the woods blocked most of the raindrops, but a lot of rain fell from between the leaves and hit the coir raincoat, making a pattering sound.

A lot of water accumulated on the grass in the woods. The rain soaked the shoes and socks when I stepped on it, and it was very cold. I lost my feet after walking all the way.

After being washed by the rain for the past few days, these mushrooms have emerged from the soil one after another. There are many kinds of mushrooms, large and small.

These orcs who live in the woods all year round know how to get along with the woods, and the same is true when collecting mushrooms. They don't grab all the mushrooms, and sometimes they selectively collect some mature mushrooms and leave a lot. The spawn stays where they are so they can find new mushrooms tomorrow or the day after or after the next downpour.

Gradually, there was a light in the sky, and the dark woods lit up. In the morning, it was no longer a dark patch, nor was it a hazy mist in the distance.

Jacob was in high spirits, and from time to time, he circled around Tao Te in big circles, collecting mushrooms everywhere. Tao Te didn't care what he did, disappeared from sight, and let him go.

"Tauter, look." Jacob, who didn't know where he went, ran up to him excitedly with a small pannier on his back, and then showed him the mushrooms in his pannier, showing off.

"Not bad." Taotao didn't intend to praise him.

Jacob was also a little dissatisfied when he heard the words, but he was working very hard to collect mushrooms.

"Let me see how much you picked?" While Jacob was speaking, he threw himself on Tout and looked into the basket behind him.

This was unbearable, he stared at Tao Te with wide eyes and asked in aggrieved way: "How can you pick more than me, and so much more?"

The pannier on Tao Te’s back is already [-]% full, densely filled with mushrooms

And all the mushrooms he picked were big and beautiful, unlike the mushrooms picked by Jacob, they were very messy in size and size.Jacob looked at the mushrooms he had collected, and then at Taot's back basket. The mushrooms behind Taote's back were indeed very plump, very big, and looked very pleasing to the eye.

Jacob was very puzzled, he didn't understand why he still lost to Tout after working so hard.

"I told you not to run around and follow me." Tout said, pointing to the orcs around him, he continued: "Look for yourself, someone has already been there, you run there It's useless, it's better to follow me."

The forest is very large, and it cannot be traversed overnight. Therefore, the orcs in the tribe usually have clear goals when collecting these things. They will not scurry throughout the forest, but selectively walk from one end. To the other end, although the straight-line distance won't allow them to pick more mushrooms, it won't let them miss everything along the route.

The route chosen by Tao Te was not taken by the rest of the people, so he could collect more.

Jacob looked at Taot. He lived in the woods all year round and he could see that what Taote said was very simple, but no one had ever taught him how to do it before, so after Taote understood this In a blink of an eye, he calmed down and followed Le Taote obediently.

The two had been collecting mushrooms in the woods until noon before walking back slowly, and at that time the mushrooms in their back baskets were already full.

When Jacob returned home, he immediately carried the mushrooms he had picked to Sidney's house without taking off his coir raincoat.

Tout didn't follow, so he didn't know what they said, but judging from Jacob's excited expression, it was inevitable that he had been praised.

They went out too early in the morning and they didn't eat much, but Jacob didn't complain, but looked forward to the mushroom meal he picked at noon.

After packing up the mushrooms, the two of them sat down at the table after getting ready for lunch, when there was a knock on the door.

The person who knocked on the door was Erfu. He was not wearing a coir raincoat, and was soaked in rainwater. He looked at Tao Te with a pale face, and before Tao Te could ask him, he immediately said, "Tao Te, go and help me. I'm going to the doctor, there's something wrong with Campbell."

After saying this, Ralph turned around and ran away, and Tout also hurried to the next door.

As soon as Tao Te entered the door, he saw Sidney who was in a hurry. He ran forward and asked, "Uncle Sidney, what happened to Campbell?"

Sidney opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but at this moment he was so anxious that he couldn't utter a word.

Taut hurried into the room to check on Campbell's situation, only to find that his face was pale and he seemed to have lost all life.

"What's going on here?" Campbell had been fine before, but suddenly he became like this.

"Yesterday he said that he was not feeling well. We originally wanted to find a doctor to come over this morning. Who knew that he suddenly started coughing in the middle of the night last night and his whole body started to have a high fever. Ralph and I took care of him here overnight. , The situation finally stabilized in the morning, I thought nothing happened, but just now he passed out suddenly." After talking about it, Sidney was already at a loss.

Tao Te walked to the bed, stretched out his hand to touch Campbell's forehead and found that his forehead temperature was very high, apparently he was already delirious.

"Campbell?" He reached out and patted Campbell's cheek, trying to wake him up. The other party was in a coma, and no matter how Tout called him, he didn't respond.

Fortunately, Ralph's speed was very fast, and soon he brought the doctor back home.

When the doctor entered the door, everyone pulled him away and asked him to enter the room to check and judge how Campbell is doing now.

Tao Te was not very clear about the doctor's specific diagnosis, but judging from the doctor's increasingly ugly face, the situation was not optimistic.

After a long time, the doctor shook his head and said to several people in the room: "You have to be mentally prepared."

"Doctor?" Everyone in the room looked at him in surprise.

"What the hell is going on here? Wasn't Campbell fine? And you said he was just too tired and there was nothing wrong with that." Taut asked.

Since Campbell fell ill, he has often come here to visit, but Campbell has always been in a very good state of mind, and he can often make a few jokes. Even before today, he was still very normal.

The doctor glanced at Tao Te, pondered for a while, then sighed and said: "The situation is already like this now, and there is no need for me to continue to hide it from you."

After hearing the doctor's words, Tao Te's heart sank suddenly.The lingering bad premonition in his heart popped up in an instant.

Ralph and Sidney on the side were silent, not as excited as Taut.

"His condition is not so good. I told you this because he asked me to do so." The doctor said, "Tiredness is indeed part of the reason, but the biggest reason is actually because of his previous unmentionable illness, his previous injury. He has been busy without getting enough rest, and his body has been worn down day by day. Although the rest during this period has made his whole body refreshed, but the previous unmentionable illness has dragged his whole body down Praise, these are not something that can be recovered overnight."

When the doctor said this, everyone in the room fell silent.

Jacob didn't know when he would come here. After listening to this method and seeing his gloomy face, he covered his mouth with his hands and didn't dare to make a sound.

"Is this really the case??" Taut asked, if it was true as the doctor said, why did he hide it from them before?

I don't know why Tao Te always feels that something is wrong?

But the doctor laughed at him at this time and said: "I didn't believe Campbell said before that I couldn't hide it from you, but now I think it was wrong to help him..."
