Flat Rise Orphanage

Shen Ran couldn't refuse such a picture, and couldn't say anything good, so he didn't answer, but Tu took this as a default, took the fish soup contentedly, and then swallowed it in one gulp.

The temperature of the fish soup dropped again when they were tugging. It was just right to eat, not too cold and not too hot. The warm hot soup flowed down the throat into the stomach. so warm.

In the next few days, Tu still followed Shen Ran.

Now he has learned to coordinate the work of helping Shen Ran and hunting. He usually follows Shen Ran from one to three in the afternoon, and goes hunting from three to six. The left and right are in the forest near the tribe. He also knows where to hunt, so don't worry about not being able to catch up.

At that point in time, he just happened to be able to help Yuan hunt, and he had less time to find prey.Only occasionally did not find anyone once or twice, and if he did not recruit people, Tu also had his own thing to do, that is to pick up the fishing rod and go fishing by the river. He can pull a whole big fish by himself, unlike other little orcs It seems that someone needs help.

——As a male with a female, he has to bear the responsibility of hunting.

Shen Ran didn't speak again to expel Tu, just kept silent and didn't drive him away, but he wouldn't ask him to help either.

Very passive resistance.

At the same time, there was another thing that made Shen Ran not in the mood to rush away. On the other day, Hou said that the condition of their small cave was not good, and he was worried that Ming would not live well. Although it ended with Ming being taken away, it was not without Shen Ran affect the heart.

Without him, the situation in their small cave is indeed too bad.

The cave gets colder as you go in, even on a hot day, Shen Ran doesn't understand the reason, but there are so many little orcs living in a cave, it is inevitable that someone lives in the innermost, the innermost The little orcs are more likely to catch a cold than the little orcs outside. Although they haven't caught a cold yet, they must be prevented.

Many little orcs are crowded together, and the accommodation conditions are a bit poor.

The food conditions have been raised, so should the accommodation conditions also be improved?Recently, Shen Ran has been thinking about this question.

Just as he was thinking, a cloud of shadows suddenly appeared in front of him, then Tu knelt down, pointed at the leaves in front of him with his knees folded, and asked him silently without saying a word.

The leaves are very big, like a bedclothes. These days, when Shen Ran was thinking about whether to improve his accommodation conditions, he couldn't help but write and draw on the leaves with branches. They were all design drawings of modern houses, simplified, nothing Such a complicated design can be drawn by ordinary people.

"Why did you come here?" Shen Ran put away the leaves.

The picture said: "I *turned over the dried vegetables." He pointed to the dried vegetables beside him, and added: "You have been squatting here just now, you forgot."

"..." After a long silence, Shen Ran thanked Tu, "Thank you."

There are requirements for the drying time of dried vegetables, and they must be turned over frequently, otherwise they will not be well dried.Although he didn't tell Tu clearly, Tu remembered it by himself through observation.

"Where's Mulin?" Without rushing away, Shen Ran still wasn't used to being with Tu. Who could adapt to being with someone who covets him? It's a bit embarrassing to use the word "covet", but Tu gave it to him. It feels like this, "Hey, I have something to say to him."

Tu didn't know if he really didn't understand Shen Ran's embarrassment, or if he pretended not to see it, but he still stared at it and said, "He's gone."

"Where did you go?" Shen Ran asked.

Tu shook his head, "I don't know."

"What do you want to say, it's the same as telling me." He said again.

Shen Ran: "..."

I can't tell, you're pretty good at hitting snakes with sticks.

Don't say it!

Shen Ran also became childish, rolled up the leaves and put away the branches, without telling Tu.Ah Mu Lin left, so he will discuss it after Mu Lin Ah Mo comes back.The picture of dried vegetables had been turned over, Shen Ran went to pinch the degree of dryness and wetness of dried vegetables, felt that it could be dried for a while, then went into the small cave, and put the leaves and branches away.

Tu still followed Shen Ran.

"Why didn't you tell me?" He didn't give up, "It's the same with me."

Then you must first make sure that you have no thoughts about me like Mulin Ahmo, then I believe you are the same.

Putting the leaves and branches away, Shen Ran took out the peppers again. The peppers were still from those pepper plants, and the peppers were also dried, but the seeds inside hadn't come out yet.Because peppers are different from dried vegetables, peppers don't need to pay attention to drying humidity, just put them in a corner to dry. Yesterday, Shen Ran took a look and saw that they were already dried. Today he decided to get the seeds and store them for planting next year.

Tu didn't get an answer, so he stepped forward to help Shen Ran carry the pepper out.

"give me."

"I will do it myself."

"give me."

"I said I would come by myself."

Tu was silent for a while, then said earnestly and firmly, "I, come!"

Shen Ran didn't let go, so Tu used his hands hard, and then the pepper in Shen Ran's hand, who was not as strong as Tu Tu, was snatched away.

Shen Ran with empty hands: "!!!"

Who will take care of this child!

Also silent, Shen Ran went out and took the pepper, broke it open, and carefully took out the seeds inside.There are quite a lot of peppers, and there are two large wooden bowls after drying.

There are already many peppers in one plant. The plants in this world are bigger than those on the earth, and the peppers are also bigger, so each plant has a lot of peppers.They are all dried in the sun, and there are a lot of them, and the amount is very sufficient.

Even a chili pepper can have dozens or even hundreds of seeds, densely packed and very gratifying. These are the basis for him to eat chili peppers next year, and Shen Ran is very happy.

Tu also came to help, but this time Shen Ran made up her mind to turn her back, so don't let Tu help.

This little overlord, he has never seen such a domineering pursuer!

...

"Ah Mulin, don't worry, I will definitely help you. But why are there so many animal skins in your small cave?" In the corner of the tribe, Amo Mulin was talking to several females who were the same age as him. Holding a large pile of large animal skins in his arms, he said curiously: "These animal skins will be warm when the cold season comes!"

Ah Mu Mulin smiled, "It's nothing, the little orcs in our small cave fought hard and got lucky enough to kill a few wild beasts. By the way, here is half a big fish. When the animal skins are finished, I will take care of the half big fish." Here you go."

"Okay." The females smiled, and they can get half a big fish by doing something for him, which is very good, "Come to me after three sunsets, and I promise to help you dry these animal skins." clean."

"Okay, then I'll trouble you!"

Ah Mu Mulin talked to those females again, then turned around with a smile and left.As more prey were hunted, there were more animal skins in the small cave. Handling animal skins was a laborious task. Shen Ran had been ill and had little strength. He was too old to tan those animal skins by himself, so he Sort and tidy up, and hand everything over to the females you know.

Just give someone a big fish.

When the animal skins are finished, they can take them back to make animal skin clothes. Thanks to Yuan, the little orcs in their small cave can also have new animal skin clothes to wear.

It just so happens that the tribe has always had the work of processing animal skins, and the females are also doing it. They didn't all dry the meat, otherwise their animal skins would not be found.

The small cave is gradually getting better, and Mu Lin is in a very good mood. On the way, he met a familiar female and said hello, laughing all the way, but when he returned to the small cave, he found that the atmosphere seemed a bit wrong.

To be precise, it wasn't that the atmosphere in the small cave was wrong, but that Tu and Shen Ran's previous atmosphere was wrong.

"Shen Ran female, Tu, what's the matter with you two?" Amo Mulin put away the smile on her face, walked over and asked worriedly.

Shen Ran: Don't ask me, ask him!

Shen Ran didn't speak.

Tu lowered his head and groaned and groaned to break off the chili peppers, with skillful movements and tyrannical strength, the red chili seeds in the peppers fell down, and he carefully put them into a wooden bowl without saying a word.

Seeing Tu trying so hard to break off the dried peppers, Shen Ran became even more silent. He was so angry that Tu got his way in the end.He understood the picture of this little cub. Apart from being taciturn, he was also very rambunctious. He was withdrawn and didn't like to talk. He couldn't fight on rascally.

What's even more hateful is that, as an adult, he can't handle such a little cub.

"Tu is working, and I'm supervising the work." Not wanting to mention this sad matter, Shen Ran made an appearance of taking the initiative to order things for Tu to do, and then asked Mu Lin, saying: "Mu Lin, did you go just now?" Where is it, I have no idea."

Trying to divert Mu Lin's attention, Mu Lin's attention was indeed diverted. Hearing Shen Ran's question, he immediately said: "I gave the animal skins we saved to the females I know to deal with."

"After they finish processing, they can make new animal skin clothes. Those old animal skin clothes can be exchanged with other tribes." He smiled again, "Hehe, we have been in this small cave for a long time. There are no new fur clothes to change."

The tribe has been processing animal skins and making animal skin clothes, but a piece of animal skin can make at most one piece of clothing, and the excess will not work.The little orcs in their small cave didn't have any new animal skin clothes to wear in the last cold season. Fortunately, they have fur on their bodies, and they still have a thousand old animal skin clothes, otherwise they would be very cold.

But even so, a few little orcs suffered from the cold last year and almost didn't survive.

A little orc without Apa Amao is ultimately inferior to a little orc with Apa Amo.

The only good estimate is that in the cold season, the little orcs in their small caves can still maintain their animal shape, which is good for growth, without turning into a human form and wearing animal skin clothes like those little orcs.

"When will the animal skin be processed?" Shen Ran asked after listening.

Amo Mulin: "It takes three after sunset."

That's three days, that's fast.

"Shen Ran female, why are you asking this?"

"Mulin, this time I want to make animal skin clothes, clothes that little orcs can wear without changing their human form." The little orcs in their small cave don't have to envy other little orcs, they can wear animal shapes Clothes that can be worn without turning into a human form like other little orcs, "One more thing, I want to rebuild a place for us to live in."

There is no need to solve the basic necessities of life, food, housing and transportation. The first few must be solved without hesitation.

Mulin Ahmo was puzzled: "Where do you live?"

"Yes." Shen Ran went back to the small cave and took out the leaves and branches. The sketches of his house were drawn on it, "I want to build a house like this before the cold season, and live in it during the cold season." Go in and live in this kind of house, it will be better than living in a cave."

Mu Lin can't understand why it's better to live in this kind of thing than in a cave. It's not as strong as a cave when it looks square.

That's the bad thing. In this kind of world, you have to explain everything you do, and you have to find a way to prevent others from doubting you.

Shen Ran had a bit of a headache, at this moment, the picture of breaking peppers silently on the side suddenly snatched the leaves from Amo Mulin's hand, and looked at them more silently.

Shen Ran: "..."

Ah Mu Lin: "!!!"

Can Tu not make trouble at such a time? Shen Ran's face is a little dark. He can tolerate Tu being by his side, but he doesn't want to tolerate snatching things regardless of the occasion. The former can be understood as he doesn't know how to pursue people, but the latter If you are not careful, you will delay things.

Just like some bear children in modern times, this kind of thing cannot be tolerated, otherwise it will become more and more serious.

Just when Shen Ran was about to force Tu to return, Tu suddenly raised his head, pointed at the stick figure of the house above and said, "Shen Ran, you said living in this kind of thing is better than living in a cave?"

He looked serious, as if trying to get his attention on purpose.

Shen Ran was slightly surprised in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face, but he also answered seriously: "Yes, in such a house, we can light a fire to keep warm, close the doors and windows, and don't worry about the wind blowing in, and we don't worry about it. Living in a cave with water dripping down makes us chill."

"We can also make a channel under the stone bed, draw the hot smoke there, and heat our stone bed. By the way, we can also cook in it, and make a stone pot connected to the house. Those fires that burn wood will not go to waste.”

What Shen Ran was talking about was a rough version of the kang in the north. Of course, the specific operation still needs a lot of attention, but if a house is built, it will definitely be warmer than living in a cave.You don't have to worry about water droplets falling from the top all the time, and you can't sleep well.

The only downside may be that they have to be crowded, and the little orcs may not be too used to it.But it will be good after this cold season, and more houses can be built next year. If it is not possible, they can hire more orcs and try their best to build more houses.

The orcs in the orc world have a lot of strength, and it definitely takes less time to build a simple stone house than in modern times. If they work overtime, they can come out with a few houses.

"Won't the water drop fall on our heads?" Tu caught on to the word.

Shen Ran nodded, "That's right, it won't fall on our heads."

In the cold season, the water in the cave drips on the body like ice.

"That's fine, I'll help you!" Tu stood up and returned the leaves to Shen Ran.He turned around for a while, then returned the wooden bowl containing peppers to Shen Ran, as if he was about to help Shen Ran find stones to build a house, Shen Ran was stunned, and quickly grabbed the picture, dumbfounded, even if he wanted to There is no need to be in such a hurry to build a house, "Don't be in such a hurry."

Can't help but tap the forehead of the picture below, Shen Ran reprimanded in a low voice with a smile.

Picture, he was stunned covering his forehead, staring straight at Shen Ran with big eyes, unable to recover.

It's been a long time, and Shen Ran has never done such an intimate gesture to him.

Shen Ran... Shen Ran was also stunned, and kept knocking on Tu's forehead, and was also surprised by the intimate gesture he made to Tu.

The atmosphere of the two of them became a little weird, sticky and sticky, and their breathing seemed to be a little difficult.

"Shen Ran is female, but what you said is wrong." At this time, Mu Lin's voice sounded, and he said annoyedly: "In the cold season, the inside of the cave is very warm, even if there is a little water drop, it will still be warm inside." warm."

Although it was cold outside and there were no animal skin clothes to wear, it was warm inside the cave.

Mu Lin Ah Mo's sudden voice interrupted the strange atmosphere between Shen Ran and Tu. Regarding this, the two of them had different attitudes towards Mu Lin Ah Mo.

Shen Ran's eyes filled with tears, Mu Lin, I am so grateful to you!

Tu's eyes are heavy, this old female, why can't she wink at all!

Closer to home, I still have to explain to Shen Ran, "Mulin, the cave is indeed warm in the cold season, but that is compared to the cold outside, but in fact it is not very warm."

Caves are called warm in winter and cool in summer, but that is only relative to the temperature perceived by human skin. In fact, caves have a constant temperature and are basically lower than the temperature of the human body. Therefore, it is hot in summer and you will feel cool when you enter the cave. Feel the warmth.

The temperature of the cave is related to the altitude. Most of the temperature is around 10-30 degrees. The Yihu tribe is located in the forest. This is actually a forest on a plain. It is conservatively estimated that the temperature of the cave should be around 20 degrees.

20 degrees, which is very warm for the cold season outside, but it is not as good as a stone house with a firepit and a heated kang.If you live in it for a long time, the air is humid and cold, you may get rheumatism.

According to the memory of the original owner, Shen Ran discovered that the orcs in this world, whether they are strong males or thin females, all suffer from joint pain after old age.

Whatever the reason, building a new home is imperative.

Shen Ran knew the pros and cons of it, he thought for a long time, and tried to explain to Mu Lin Amo with the courtyards and knowledge that he already had in this world. What he used the most was the joint pain of the old orcs, which made Mu Lin Amo turn pale with fright. , immediately told Shen Ran that he could build a house.

It was only then that Shen Ran knew that Mu Lin Ah had this problem now. During the rainy season a few days before the arrival of the cold season, his bones began to ache.It's just that he doesn't know the reason, and now that he knows that there is a way to alleviate it, how can he not care.

This is also a coincidence.

After discussing it, Shen Ran and Mu Lin continued to discuss how to implement it. The first is stone materials, where there are enough stones, the second is manpower, how many disabled orcs need to be hired, and the last is the wages for orcs.

As for the location, there is no need to think about it. The beast world is not good, only good, and the land is sparsely populated. Anywhere is fine. They don't have to choose, and they directly set the open space not far in front of the small cave.

Mulin Ahmo was frightened, he was what Shen Ran said, and the salary of the manpower also depended on Shen Ran's arrangement. Shen Ran was satisfied and dissatisfied with Mulin Ahmo's status as the shopkeeper.

Satisfied is that he doesn’t have to worry about someone pointing fingers at him, but dissatisfied is that he will have more work this way, and he is already on the right track to store food with them, so he doesn’t have to worry about uneaten food, and the salary can also be paid.

People, people, there is still a lack of people, Shen Ran is troubled.

"boom-"

Suddenly there was a relatively small sound from the side, but Shen Ran didn't notice it.

"boom--"

The voice increased slightly, but Shen Ran, who was immersed in his own thoughts, still didn't notice.

"boom--!"

This time the voice was loud, and Shen Ran noticed it, and was suddenly brought back to his senses in deep thought.He hurriedly turned his head to look, and saw that Tu was staring at him innocently with his black eyes open, holding the empty wooden bowl in his hand, as if he would continue to tap to remind him.

Shen Ran: "..."

"All right, all right." Shen Ran compromised, "It's just you, and then you will help me build the house, and the hunting will be suspended for a while, and you can go when the house building is on the right track, okay?"

Tu's eyes lit up instantly, and he nodded fiercely, "Yes!"

He is still his little helper, as Shen Ran said before.

Shen Ran is a character who does it when he thinks about it. He never delays until the next day. When the little orcs came back that night, he announced his decision to build a house. As for what the house is, he casually said it was the same as a cave, but Compared with the cave, I didn’t explain the specifics, anyway, I can’t explain it clearly, let’s put the term house in their minds first.

Then go to Yuan who is skinning the animal, and ask him if there is any disabled orc he knows, and he will use it.

……

He is a disabled orc from the Yihu tribe. He takes a small piece of meat from the tribe every day. He can’t eat enough or starve to death. He lives in the tribe every day. When he has nothing to do, he often sits in the cave and thinks about it. What's the point of being alive.

Can't hunt, can't do the work that females can do, can't bring any use to the tribe, and he often wonders why he became a disabled orc.

why?

Every time he thinks like this, it is very painful, and he can't get the answer, because every disabled orc in the tribe thinks like this.Today was the same as before, he ate the meat whole, thought about his life, and decided to go to the forest to see if he could catch small prey. Although he couldn't get enough of the small prey, he couldn't make him so hungry.

In the long night, if he can't eat any more, he will be so hungry that he will have no strength.

After becoming a disabled orc, he never had enough to eat. Over time, he became thinner and thinner. Sometimes he thought that he might not be able to survive this cold season.

Forget it, if you can't survive it, you can't survive it. It's okay to return to the embrace of the beast god as soon as possible.

Those who are lost will become prototypes, spread their wings and fly to the forest.At this moment, suddenly an orc flew towards his cave. The orc had good eyesight, even at night, he recognized who it was.

Knowing who was coming, he said hello weakly, "Yuan, why are you here?"

Yuan turned into a human form, smiled and patted Fu on the shoulder, and said loudly: "He, I found a job for you, a job that can make you full!"

He patted Yuan's hand away, lay down on the ground, and said weakly: "Yuan, don't lie to me, when will the disabled orcs have enough to eat? Can you do female work? If you want to say something, say it earlier, I've got to go hunting, and I'm very hungry now."

"Hey! Why don't you believe it!" Yuan smiled, raised his head, and asked him to look at himself seriously, "Look at me, am I full? I'm not the same now as I was before! "

He glanced at Yuan without much interest. He hadn't seen Yuan for a few days, but it didn't mean he would let Yuan fool himself like this. Yuan saw that he only glanced at him briefly, and in a hurry, grabbed his hand and put it on his belly. Touching it, let him clearly feel that he is full.

"Touch and see if I'm full."

"Yuan, what are you doing!" He became impatient, "Although I can't pursue a female, I won't find a male...wait a minute," his voice paused, and he touched Yuan's belly again, his eyes slightly Open your eyes wide, "You are really full!"

Yuan pulled the hand down without a good voice, of course, could it be that he really felt that he was interested in males?

The author has something to say: Picture: Kang me Kang me, I am your little helper!

Shen Ran: ...All right, it's up to you.
