There are savages in the jungle

The Bai people's castle is solid but indestructible, but for the more skilled Mao people, it is not so insurmountable.

Yan chose an empty corner and began to climb the wall.

The sharp and hard toenails were firmly buckled in the crevices of the stone, and he rushed up the stone wall in two or three steps in one go, and then stepped on the wall and kicked hard before turning over.

The movements are as natural and smooth as flowing clouds and flowing water, and the whole process takes no more than two seconds.A white-haired man happened to pass by, and he glimpsed something out of the corner of his eye, but when he turned his head to look, Yan had already flashed behind a tent.

The white-haired man looked at the big tree outside the city wall, thinking that the shadow he saw just now was the branches being blown by the wind, so he left without paying attention.

When Yan walked to the street, the white-haired man who saw him thought he was a brown-haired man who hadn't gone out yet, and just scolded him a few times to drive him away.Yan walked away sullenly, with his head lowered, but his eyes wandered wildly, and quickly locked his target on a very thin white-haired man with a big belly.

He walked towards the white-haired man, pretending to inadvertently bumped the white-haired man's shoulder lightly, and whispered at the moment he missed: "Do you want food?"

The white-haired man with a big belly was taken aback for a moment, and immediately turned his head to look at Yan defensively.

Yan Xin said, "Let's talk in another place."

The white-haired man hesitated for a few seconds, then turned and walked behind the tent.Yan wandered on the street for two steps, and then followed.

Faced with the superior scrutiny and hostile gaze of the white-haired man, Yan was not timid at all, and said straight to the point: "I need soft animal skins. If you have them, I will exchange them with your prey."

The white-haired man smiled coldly, "What qualifications do you have to make a deal with me? If you have prey, don't hand it over directly."

Yan said to himself: "So what if I pay ten more prey? You have such a large population of white hairs, how much more can you allocate? Since you are willing to meet me in private, you must want to trade with me in private."

The white-haired man choked, and asked cautiously, "What do you want the animal skin for?"

Yan didn't hide it, saying, "My partner is afraid of the cold."

The white-haired man is also a person with a partner. Hearing that the brown-haired man did all this for his partner, the romantic feeling in his heart made it so, he quickly let go, "Okay, I agree."

Yan said: "I'll see you in Xiaoshu tomorrow afternoon. It's not convenient for you. Just ask your partner to come and let him wear a hay ring on his head."

The white-haired man nodded in agreement.

Yan said again: "I hope to cooperate with you for a long time, so don't play tricks. You know that as long as there are prey in the mountains, we brown-haired people will never lack food. A few prey are nothing to me. I don't have you alone Partners, and will find others.”

"Hmph, let's wait until you catch the prey. This is a grassland, not a forest."

Yan smiled, his goal had been achieved, and he left contentedly.

The grassland is indeed very different from the mountains. Animals run very fast and have a wide field of vision. It is not easy to ambush, and some people are not used to it.But the next day, he still hunted a wild boar and a cow bravely.

In the afternoon, sure enough, a white-haired man wearing a grass ring came to exchange the goods.The rock hiding behind the soil slope immediately ran over with the prey.

This white-haired man was thinner than the big-bellied white-haired man, which Yan expected.

Those who had children were all thin, proving that the family's hunting instincts were poor, unless the pot-bellied white-haired man was an outcast.But in subsequent conversations, this was ruled out.

The two prey were exchanged for two pieces of soft animal skins. The white-haired man didn't expect the brown-haired man to be so powerful, so he only brought one, so he agreed to pay the second one tomorrow.

Yan agreed, and told the other party that he wanted to do this for a long time and would come tomorrow.The voice is: Don't be foolish, make me anxious, I will change the transaction partner.

The white-haired man nodded repeatedly, then swaggered back to the tribe with his prey, claiming that he had caught it himself.

The white-haired man is not good at hunting, but he has a delicate mind, and the animal skins he makes are very soft and comfortable to look at.Yan has never used their animal skins, but just looking at what they wear, he feels the quality is different, so he went to the White-haired tribe with all his heart.

It turns out he was right.

The next morning, the white-haired man brought a piece of animal skin over as promised, and Yan gave him a prey in exchange for the two skins.

In order not to arouse the suspicion of others, they traded two more prey in groups at a time.

For three days, Yanlu exchanged food for more than a dozen animal skins one after another, and then rushed home without leaving the ground.

Returning to the tribe and the familiar cave, Yan walked lightly and went to the inner room to look at Xia Yun.

Xia Yun had already fallen asleep, and his posture was restless. Even though the burden on his legs made him unable to sleep on his side, he still bent his legs upwards, stepped on the wall with his arms around him, and his body showed the most defensive posture.

Yan put the two packages on the ground and was about to sit in the grass nest when Xia Yun suddenly woke up and yelled.

"Who!"

The sound of the animal skin package falling on the ground woke Xia Yun up. He raised his head with a flick of his body, and stepped back quickly with his elbows on the ground.

Yan hurriedly said: "It's me, don't be afraid, don't be afraid, I'm back."

"Yan?" Xia Yun blinked, his pupils adapted to the dim light, and after confirming that the person in front of him was Yan, his body relaxed.

"Scared me to death, why didn't you call me?"

Yan climbed up to the inner room, and hugged Xia Yun lovingly, "Seeing that you are asleep, I am reluctant to call you. See what I brought back for you?"

"What?" Xia Yun was still sleepy, if he was not worried about running into a murderer like Li again, he would never get up.Hearing that Yan brought something for him, Xia Yun endured his sleepiness, leaned against Yan and looked towards the ground.

Yan picked up the package with his feet and took it into the inner room, "It's animal skin, I tried it, it's very soft, just like your clothes."

Xia Yun took a piece of clothing and touched it casually, and said in surprise, "It's really soft." When he touched a sleeve, Xia Yun stretched his hand in, and sighed, "It's so comfortable. Hey? What is this?"

There are lumps of cold stuff in the clothes, and there seems to be some dirt on the surface.

Yan said: "It is a fruit from the root of a plant in the grassland. I saw the white-haired man eat it, so I brought it back for you to taste."

Xia Yun looked at Yan's face, Yan's eyes reflected a little light in the darkness, and he was looking at him intently, his eyes full of affection.

"Thank you." Xia Yun lowered his head and fell into Yan's arms, his heart feeling a little sour.

If someone had treated him like this before, he would probably fall in love with this person.

But never now, he couldn't accept that he fell in love with the person around him.

But if you can't love, you can't love?

Xia Yun asked himself this question in his heart, and then firmly said to himself: Even if you love, you must never let him know.

You can't lose face, but also lose face.

Yan touched Xia Yun's stomach, then squeezed Xia Yun's chest muscles and arms, and suddenly felt distressed, "I lost weight, why didn't I eat?"

Xia Yun shook his head, "It's a little uncomfortable, it's too cold. Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!" Then he sneezed loudly.

Yan Gang carried Xia Yun to the innermost part of the inner room, covered him with a big tiger skin, then got in himself and hugged Xia Yun.

"I'll warm you up, go to sleep."

"Ah."

After getting into the big stove next to him, Xia Yun's body warmed up quickly, so comfortable that he wanted to groan.He groaned, but he was so lazy that he couldn't even make a sound.

In fact, it is really good to have such a person by my side, at least much better than myself.If there were no rocks, he might not have fallen to such a fragile state, but in winter, the climate and food problems would make it difficult for him to walk.

Xia Yun buried his face in Yan's furry chest, kissed it lightly, and said silently in his heart, "Thank you."

The next day, Xia Yun woke up in a warm embrace. Looking at his sleeping face, he was stunned for a long time before remembering what happened last night.

Touching the animal skin on his body, the corners of Xia Yun's mouth slightly curled up.

Yan was obviously exhausted, and slept very deeply. Normally, he would wake up when Xia Yun moved, but today there was no movement at all. He even snored in the middle of the night, and his breathing was very heavy now.

Xia Yun got up lightly, and put on the animal fur coat that Yan brought back.Walking out of the cave, when the cold wind blows, I don't feel the biting cold wind of the past.Xia Yun stretched his back lazily.

"Hiss~" Accidentally made too much movement, Xia Yun took a small breath because his belly was stretched uncomfortably.

Holding his belly, he went to the river to wash up, and when he returned to the cave, Yan was still asleep, and his posture didn't change much.

The hide is under the inner chamber.The faces are scattered all over the floor, some are white, some are black, some have leopard prints, and they all look like they have plump fur and smooth hair.The three little minks were awakened by Xia Yun's movement, and they all jumped happily in the animal skin, stepping on plum blossom footprints one by one.

"Go, go away." Xia Yun drove away the little minks, and picked up the animal skins one by one in a happy mood.When picking up a piece of black animal skin, it was obvious that something was pressing on it, and a few things fell off.

is to eat.

Xia Yun remembered what Yan said yesterday, and immediately took away the animal skin in front of him to look, but he didn't expect it to be a few sweet potatoes.

This is really another surprise after the appearance of wheat.

Sweet potatoes can be eaten with anything, sweet potato leaves, sweet potato vine shoots are delicious vegetables.Sweet potatoes are rich in starch and sugar. They can be roasted, steamed or boiled. They are both delicious and filling. They have been a very popular food for humans since ancient times.

Xia Yun picked up the sweet potato, sniffed it again and again (although no matter how you smell it, it only smells like soil), and placed it in the corner of the cave like a baby.

The ferrets squeaked a few times, swayed and ran over, sniffing at the sweet potatoes.

Xia Yun was worried that the sweet potato would be eaten by the mink, so he picked it up again, went to the storage cave, looked at it, and finally put it on the peanut jar.
