The cold season is approaching, and other members of the tribe have no time to think about the uncertain future. For the time being, everyone puts all their thoughts on collecting food. Only when there is enough meat in this off-season, can the tribe safely survive the long and cruel winter. season.

During this period of time, Li had to patrol frequently and be responsible for hunting, so he was often away from home.Occasionally, he would come back to work during odd hours, but Shen Huaijin would force him to put him on the bed to rest.

The beast horde was approaching, so Shen Huaijin naturally couldn't accept the other party's care with peace of mind.

Just after waking up, there was no one beside the pillow. Shen Huaijin sighed imperceptibly, washed up, changed clothes and opened the door.

As soon as he went out, there was a breeze blowing on his face.The wind of the bad season is cool but not bleak, with a hint of tranquility after the dust has settled, it drives away all the irritability and depression in the body, and Shen Huaijin's mood calms down involuntarily.

Shen Huaijin walked across the courtyard and walked into the opposite kitchen.

Food was warming on the stove, and there were some side dishes and a piece of paper beside it. Shen Huaijin picked it up and looked at it, and a slightly clumsy smile was drawn on the paper.

He couldn't help chuckling, and murmured: "I don't want to practice calligraphy, but I'm good at drawing emoticons."

Shen Huaijin ate some food at will for breakfast. After cleaning up the bowls and chopsticks, she took a basket of rice to the mill, poured a large spoonful of rice into the wooden mortar, and let the water automatically pound the shells.

After the water pestle started hammering rhythmically, he clapped his palms and went to the animal shed and bird pen.

The livestock had been waiting for a long time, and when they heard footsteps, they kept shouting. Shen Huaijin quickly fetched straw and old pumpkins and old vines from the side to feed them.When they were full and lazy, they carefully went in to clean up the animal pen, dug out all the excrement, and carried it to the dirt pit beside it, so as to save it for the next year's fat land.

Shen Huaijin, who came back holding her nose, glanced at the wild birds that were still calling, knowing that they were not satisfied with being omnivorous, so she had to resign herself to go to the other side to beg for the leftovers.

The climate in Linshan is extreme. During the three seasons, food and clothing can be easily achieved. In the cold season, people will face the dilemma of hunger and cold. Usually, the closer the cold season is, the less picky people are about food.However, the cannibals of an entire tribe are enough to meet the needs of wild birds, and everyone knows that the two of them raise wild birds and need some leftovers to feed them, so they usually take care of them.

Just as Shen Huaijin crossed the bridge, an Asian beast greeted him, "Jin, are you here to get the minced meat for the wild birds? Come on, come on, everyone just left me here to stock up for you."

"Thank you!" Shen Huaijin smiled when he heard that he could save some time, and happily followed others to pick up leftovers.

The minced meat that Ya Beast mentioned was stored in a small bamboo basket. Shen Huaijin saw that there were only some scraps of skin and sporadic offal in it. It seemed that everyone was trying their best to use up the animal meat recently.

The sub-beast probably guessed what Shen Huaijin was thinking, and was a little embarrassed, "Jin, is there too little meat?"

"No!" Shen Huaijin quickly waved his hands, not wanting him to misunderstand, "Wild birds only eat a little, these are enough."

Hearing what he said, Ya Beast on the opposite side felt relieved, smiled at Shen Huaijin, and said, "Jin, then I'll go get busy first."

Shen Huaijin nodded, watched Naya Beast enter her yard, and started to work.

Everyone has not completely moved into the new house, and the courtyard and house doors are wide open. He took a few steps and found that the once simple and simple brick and tile house has changed drastically.

This short off-season gave Asian beasts a chance to decorate their new houses. The original rough houses were incorporated into a complete set of furniture, which was neatly and standardizedly arranged. The houses were decorated in a simple, bright or warm and comfortable style according to their own preferences. , There are also many objects added to the courtyard.

Shen Huaijin walked and watched, and slowly walked to the front of An's courtyard, and saw the other party bent over through the courtyard wall.

Shen Huaijin was a little curious, and poked his head in through the courtyard door, and saw Anzheng squatting in the corner of the courtyard digging the soil, he blinked his eyes, and said, "An, what are you doing?"

"Ouch!" An turned her back to him, and was startled by the sudden sound. Turning around, she slowed down when she saw that he was the one, and gave him a somewhat complaining look, "Stop standing at the door, come in."

The ground of the courtyard was very flat, and there were not many objects placed on it. Shen Huaijin walked towards the corner where An was, and saw that the place had been searched all over, and An even surrounded it with stones.

He reacted, "Ann, are you planning to grow something here?"

"Yeah, I discussed it with Rin. This place is vacant. Why don't you plant a tree, and then plant some onions and ginger." Isolated from the surrounding flat floor, he stood up and clapped his palms, a little shy, "Speaking of which, I have been envious of your set of stone tables and chairs for too long. In the hot season, it feels like having dinner under the shade of a tree. That's great!"

Shen Huaijin laughed, "Next water season, you will also transplant a tree here, and it is estimated that when the hot season comes, you will be able to live like that."

Ann nodded expectantly, "That's right!"

Thinking of the wild birds that were still screaming at home, Shen Huaijin bid farewell and left without chatting a few words, and happened to meet the orcs walking towards Taniguchi together.

Although it was still morning, the hunting team was already planning to set off.As soon as they walked out of the valley, the two heavy city gates were slowly closed with a muffled sound, not giving outsiders any chance to invade.

Shen Huaijin withdrew her gaze, and walked back home quickly. After feeding the wild birds, she returned to the square, and together with Shi and other skillful hands, made high-strength guns and bows and arrows with hardwood and animal tendons.From time to time during the period, free partners joined in, and everyone took the fragmented time to fully prepare for the fierce battle at that time.

Apart from cold weapons and day-to-day hunting, there are other exciting and anticipating things in this short and busy off-season.

The holy beast fruit is ripe again.

The sacred beast tree lived up to its trust, and this time it produced seven plump fruits.Shen Huaijin carefully plucked them from the branches, and the pink and round holy beast fruit was held in the palm of her hand, exuding a faint fragrance.

After the fruit distribution in the past two years, everyone can clearly realize that the sacred beast tree has returned to prosperity, and the sacred beast fruit is not as scarce as before, so the enthusiasm for fruit in the eyes has been reduced a lot. The hands are also very steady.

According to the order, Wen happened to be allocated the last holy beast fruit of this year.As the lucky one, he held the fruit in his palm, squeezed it again and again, and when Shen Huaijin finished dividing the fruit and was about to leave, he suddenly made a sound.

"Jin..."

Shen Huaijin turned around in a daze, and saw Yang's friend holding the fruit in his hand, looking at him with a tangled face, as if what he was holding was not the sacred beast fruit that everyone was longing for, but a bomb that exploded at an unknown time.

"What's wrong, Wen?"

Wen wriggled his lower lip, hesitating for a while, and finally revealed the difficulty under Shen Huaijin's eyes, "Jin, this cold season..." He hesitated, "Do you think we should save the fruit until the next water season?"

As soon as the words came out, not only the sub-beasts who were whispering while taking the fruit were stunned, but even the other people around who were watching and joining in the fun fell silent.

Yes, now that the beast tide is coming, it is really unexpected, then...

For a moment, everyone's eyes were on Shen Huaijin.

"Whether it's good to eat or keep it, our Dahe Tribe chooses to stay here and protect our homeland, which also means that we have embarked on a path of life and death together."

Shen Huaijin's eyes were resolute, and the partners who were a little shaken clenched their fists, their hearts settled down again, and they began to repeat his words.

"Life and death together! Life and death together!"

The sound became louder and louder until it resounded through the sky, disturbing the birds.

The author has something to say: this chapter is short, and the next chapter is long.
