Shen Huaijin woke up from the cold.

He rubbed his eyes in a daze, shivered as soon as he got out of the bed, resigned himself to his fate, put on a long animal skin coat and trousers over his T-shirt, and then wrapped it with a large animal skin before opening the door.

As soon as the door was opened, a gust of cold wind blew in outside the room, making Shen Huaijin sneezed twice.

He looked outside, only to see that the sky outside the house was gloomy, the valley was covered with silver, and the stream was also covered with ice.The orcs and sub-beasts are probably hiding in the house to keep warm with each other. There are no people in the tribe, only the vast snow.

After Shen Huaijin closed the door, she stomped on her frozen feet, and quickly brought charcoal to light the fireplace. After waiting for a while, her limbs slowly warmed up.

He didn't expect the temperature to drop to such a low level just after entering the cold season. Fortunately, his preparations were sufficient, so he wouldn't be frozen out of the cold on the first day.

It's just that the temperature was too low, and Shen Huaijin couldn't lie down on the bed. He took two sweet potatoes and roasted them for himself, then sat by the fireplace and spun thread.

There was no sound inside or outside the house, only the occasional beeping sound of burning in the fireplace, Shen Huaijin felt extraordinarily peaceful in his heart.

He hadn't finished spinning half of the thread when there was a knock on the door. He recognized the sharp voice, and didn't bother to get up again, so he raised his voice, "Come in by yourself."

The door opened in response, and Li carried a small gust of wind and snow into the room.

Shen Huaijin didn't want to move, so she turned her head to look at him, only to see that the other party was wearing an animal fur vest and an animal skin skirt, but the exposed skin was not pale from the cold.Even if Shen Huaijin nestled by the fireplace, it was as if she could feel the heat from the other person.

Sure enough, it's a physique that makes fire in his bones, he touched his ankle that was frozen blue and white, thinking sourly.

"Come to see me, what's the matter?"

He brushed off the remaining snowflakes on the fur coat, and didn't look around, just said lightly, "Let's see what else you need."

Shen Huaijin also experienced the cold season for the first time, so she lacked experience, so she had to say, "Go to the storage room to see for yourself, I think I should have enough stuff."

Li Guoran went around the storage room, and when he returned to Shen Huaijin's room, he asked, "Did you stuff the hay and soil into the rattan basket to better protect the food? I don't know this method, and I don't know How long will the food on my side last?"

Shen Huaijin was taken aback, "I told Yan Heyin the method in advance, didn't they pass it on?"

The silver-haired orc frowned slightly, looking quite distressed, "Maybe I was too busy hunting for the past two days, so I didn't pay attention to this."

Shen Huaijin thought for a while, there is still some space in his storage room, and it is not impossible to put some more things, he discussed to Li: "Anyway, you usually eat with me when you start a fire, why don't you just put your food here Well, I'll use the remaining licorice and mud to help you take care of it, I still have a fireplace here, it's well stored, and it won't be a problem to keep it for a cold season."

Only then did Li's frown relax, and he naturally agreed happily.

Today, the tribe is going to distribute the animal meat. Seeing that Shen Huaijin was nestled by the fireplace and refused to move, he took the initiative to say: "I will go and bring my food here later, and take the animal meat allocated to you by the way." Come, save you another trip."

Shen Huaijin nodded, "By the way, bring me some animal skins if you have any. I want to sew a cloak and hat, otherwise it will be too cold to go out to cook."

He complied, and immediately began to move things to Shen Huaijin's place one after another.

At first, the food distributed by the tribe was brought in, no more, no less.

Shen Huaijin took a look and found that they were really piled in the rattan basket casually.He brought a lot of salt, and it is estimated that most of the pottery that he usually exchanged from him was also used by him in exchange for salt.

What was brought in was the animal meat allocated to the two by the tribe.Shen Huaijin didn't promise to ask for any offerings from the tribe, so the allocations he got were all at an ordinary level.

Through the window, he saw the large piece of frozen animal meat buried outside the house, probably most of which were called during the bad season. He was a little shocked, thinking that he really has the strength to cultivate such a big appetite. .

Li carefully buried the animal meat, and carried two bundles of firewood before entering the house.The two of them sat together and rewrapped the newly brought grain with hay and soil before they dared to take it to the storage house and put it away.

Li also brought several pieces of tanned animal skins, probably exchanged directly with other orcs, which saved Shen Huaijin from the process.

After he sewed the bedding, his own animal skin was only enough to sew a hat. He happened to get two pieces of red animal skin from the big-eared beast, so he simply made a cloak. The heat preservation effect is very good, and Shen Huaijin likes it very much.

With the fur cloak and hat, he dared to go out to make lunch when the sun was still shining at noon.

Although the wind and snow had stopped, the temperature was still low. Shen Huaijin did not seek delicious food but only simple and quick cooking.He steamed a few yams and two bowls of egg custard on one side, and simply fried radish and roasted pork on the other side. As for the barbecued meat and roasted sweet potatoes, they can be cooked by the fireplace in the house, so there is no rush.

Li has been fighting with Shen Huaijin, seeing that he was so cold that he turned into a beast and surrounded him.

The shoulder-high silver wolf nestled gently beside him, bringing bursts of warmth, Shen Huaijin was not willing to refuse.

Half an hour later, they returned to the house with cooked food and some raw meat.

The two planned to eat and roast the meat. Shen Huaijin used a spoon to grind the taro into taro paste, then took out the can of bald butter, and poured two spoons on it.The bald butter was only a small can. If it weren't for the first day of the cold season, which was a special day, he wouldn't be willing to eat it just like that.

The oily and bright bald butter is poured on the steaming minced taro. With stirring, the aroma of crab and taro are intertwined, and the aroma is rich and full of the room.Shen Huaijin took a sip, and felt that her taste buds were lightly exploded, enjoying this top-notch delicacy.

Li Ye nodded and praised: "Is this the crab you boiled last time? It's really delicious."

Shen Huaijin emphasized, "It is boiled with crab roe and crab paste. Only one crab can produce such a little bit of bald butter. I only boiled a small jar. If I don't worry about it, I can finish it soon."

Seeing his distressed face, Li smiled and said: "It's okay, I can take you to catch more crabs at the end of the next hot season, anyway, Yan and Xiu will not restrict our two actions."

Shen Huaijin glanced at him, and asked curiously: "Yan and Xiu will not restrict my actions, but why can you? They seem to be pampering you."

After all, when I first came to the tribe, Li treated me arrogantly, and I didn't see Yan and Xiuyou criticizing him.

Li's smile froze for a moment, and he replied casually: "It's nothing, because I was raised by them, so the relationship is relatively close."

Shen Huaijin knew that if she asked any further questions, she would have to involve Li's fathers whom she had not seen all this time, and the other party's avoidance of talking about it was the answer.He lowered his head, curled his lips into a self-deprecating smile, and stopped his mouth with great insight.

After eating a portion of bald butter mixed with mashed taro, a bowl of egg custard, and a few pieces of radish, Shen Huaijin was almost full, but he knew that he would eat this meal today, so he slowly ate a small roasted sweet potato.As for the rest of the food, Li made the rounds by himself.

After eating the hot food, Shen Huaijin felt more warmth and felt lazy all over. She understood what An said, the reason why orcs and sub-beasts sleep most of the time in the cold season.

Right now, he really wanted to take a comfortable nap while his body was still warm.

"Li, I want to take a nap." Shen Huaijin said politely, hoping that the other party would leave voluntarily.

Li didn't know whether it was intentional or unintentional, he misinterpreted his meaning, "Go to sleep, I'll watch the fire for you." Then he silently added firewood to the fireplace.

Shen Huaijin thought to himself that there is no need to watch the fire in the fireplace, but he was so sleepy that he didn't know what to say for a while, so he just unconsciously took off his coat and pants, lay on the bed, wrapped the quilt tightly, and yawned , fell asleep in a short while.

The silver-haired orc looked away in embarrassment. Thinking of the slender and white legs that the other party had just exposed, he blushed for a while.

Although he sometimes dreams of similar scenes, seeing it with his own eyes is more impactful.He swallowed, turned into a beast shape, and lay quietly beside Shen Huaijin's bed.

Shen Huaijin's bed is relatively low, and Silver Wolf can put his big head directly on his bed. He just stared blankly at Shen Huaijin's pink cheeks and peaceful expression when he was asleep, and his deep green eyes were reluctant to part with it. blink.

When Shen Huaijin opened his eyes, he didn't know how long he had slept. He stared at his eyes, only feeling that the bed was warm, and his whole body was laziness from skin to bone.

In a daze, he looked sideways and met a pair of green eyes, only to realize that they were Li after being startled.

"Why are you looking at me like that, you startled me." Shen Huaijin said with a bit of complaint.

But after Silver Wolf got up, he realized that his surroundings were not so warm anymore. He probably stayed by his side just now to let him have a good sleep.

He turned around and let the other person change back into a human form, while he put on the animal skin clothes with a rustle, without noticing the lustful eyes of the orc behind him.

After putting on her clothes, Shen Huaijin got up, opened the windows slightly, and found that the sky outside the windows had already darkened, and she didn't know what time it was.

He yawned and brought two baked sweet potatoes to Li, "It's getting late, you should go back quickly. Do you have anything you want to eat tomorrow? I can prepare it in advance."

Li took the two sweet potatoes that were still warm, shook his head and said, "You can come here however you like, I can eat anything." After finishing speaking, he didn't say anything about staying, he opened the door and left.

Shen Huaijin looked at his back and raised her eyebrows. Seeing the other party's expression just now, he thought it would take a long time to make the other party leave obediently, but he didn't expect that he wanted to go wrong.

But when it was time to go to sleep at night, Shen Huaijin understood why the other party was doing it.

It's so cold!

Although there was a fireplace burning all the time in the house, it wouldn't let him freeze to death, but the temperature at night was significantly lower. Compared with the warm and comfortable sleep in the afternoon, Shen Huaijin now only felt cold and inhospitable, and it was difficult to fall asleep after tossing and turning.

It is really easy to go from frugality to extravagance, but difficult to go from luxury to frugality.

After tossing and tossing for most of the night, he had no choice but to nest back by the fireplace, warming his body while spinning, until the heat in his body increased, and then sat on the chair and dozed lightly, and stayed up like this for a whole night.

In a daze, I thought that I must make a recliner for myself, otherwise I would have stiff neck and scoliosis when I slept on the chair.

The author has something to say: Hangzhou is also very cold recently, and it is the most comfortable to lie in bed. (3[▓▓]
