The promise of slow wear for the rest of your life

In the middle of the night, the symphony played in the gathering place gradually stopped.

Hissing was under the big tree that returned at this time.

Arnold sensed his return, hurriedly ended his meditation and practice, held a knife in his hand, and was on guard all over, to prevent Hissing from suddenly going crazy.

I don't know if hissing noticed the defensiveness he showed, but after walking under the tree, he didn't approach the side where Arnold was.

Arnold could vaguely see through the dim moonlight that Hissing was lying in the open space on the side where Jiujiuya and Jiujiu were, and fell asleep.

After a while, his hissing breathing rate stabilized, as if he had fallen asleep.

It wasn't until this moment that Arnold felt relieved, put away his weapon, and lay down to sleep.

As the battle turns and the stars move, the moon sets and the sun rises.

A new day is coming soon.

From this day on, Arnold clearly felt that Hiss's attitude towards him had changed a lot compared to before.

As long as you are free, you will definitely follow Jiujiuya, or take the initiative to ask Arnold to learn the language, which is just one of them.

Whenever Arnold has to do some strenuous work, such as chopping wood for wooden barrels, Sijiu will rush to do it as soon as he sees it, and even patiently follow Arnold's request. two.

Before going out hunting in the morning, he will definitely fill the stone bathtub under the big tree with water for him and Jiujiu to soak in the afternoon to cool off the heat, which is the third.

Every time he comes back from hunting, he will bring some edible or inedible fresh fruits, eat the edible ones for him, Jiujiuya and Jiujiu, and let him study the inedible ones, this is the fourth.

There are the fifth, the sixth, the seventh, the eighth, etc., and the examples are too numerous to enumerate.

The good attitude shown by hissing is too obvious, even if Arnold doesn't want to notice it, it's hard for him to ignore it, even if he wants to ignore it.

At first, Arnold was still wary of this, worrying that he might have some bad idea.

After a long time, Arnold saw that he hadn't made any small moves, so he gradually calmed down and dealt with it calmly.

After a few days, the relationship between the two is obviously much more familiar than before.

At least when they are in the same place, they no longer look like two unrelated strangers.

For Arnold, this development is a relationship development that is conducive to his fulfilling his heavy responsibility, and it has never exceeded his bottom line.

Therefore, Arnold did not show resistance on the bright side throughout the whole process, and just let the relationship between the two develop from unfamiliarity to familiarity.

As for what Arnold thinks secretly, only Arnold knows.

……

In the early morning, the sky was gray.

The wind howled, and the thunder rolled.

Overwhelming leaden gray clouds dominated the sky, and the sun was so tightly blocked by the clouds that not even a ray of sunlight could be exposed.

It was obvious that it was going to rain this day, and it was still a heavy rain.

Arnold thought that the orcs in the gathering place would make a big move because of this, at least they would be like the orcs in the group where the original owner stayed, quickly find a cave or something, and take the non-orcs and cubs there to avoid rain.

Unexpectedly, everyone didn't even have any special reaction. After waking up, they still did what they should do. It seemed that they had no idea of ​​moving their positions to avoid the rain.

Seeing this situation, Arnold was secretly surprised, and couldn't help but hastily prepared for a rainy day.

He worked hard all morning, and finally managed to use the branches and wide leaves to build a very simple shed under the big tree in time before the rain came down, to keep out the rain and wind.

As soon as he built the shed here, the heavy rain came over there.

The raindrops all over the sky were connected into a line, and they fell on the ground with crackling, menacing.

Anol hurriedly pushed Jiujiuya and Jiujiu, who were standing dazed in the rain, under the shed.

Then move their commonly used items and items that cannot be exposed to rain to the shed.

The heavy rain has arrived, but the orcs who went out to hunt have not returned yet.

Many non-orcs in the gathering place are still doing their own things.

The foothold is in the larger and denser canopy, and the few non-orcs under the broad-leaved trees are still okay, and they haven't been exposed to the rain much.

The few non-orcs whose footholds are above the shelter that is not enough to cover the rain will be miserable, and they all sit stupidly in the pouring rain and get drenched.

Anol was dumbfounded, and couldn't figure out why those non-orcs had to stick to their own foothold, instead of looking for a big tree where the rain didn't fall.

That's all, and then Arnold saw that a few non-orcs who hadn't been exposed to the rain, foolishly ran into the rain to stay in the rain.

Among those non-orcs, there was a brown-haired boy who always liked to chat with Arnold.

I saw him happily drenched in the rain, while excitedly beckoning to Anol who was standing under the shed to hide from the rain, and motioned for Anol to hurry up and get drenched in the rain.

Arnold waved his hand firmly and rejected his kind invitation, resolutely not to find fault for himself.

And not only did he not go by himself, but he also stopped Jiujiuya and Jiujiu who were about to move.

Rain is a minor matter, but illness is a major issue.

Under the condition of not even having the most basic medical foundation, if you rashly ran into the rain and got sick, you would be in big trouble.

In order to avoid such a fatal trouble, he can't control others, so he has to take care of these two little guys around him.

Therefore, even when the hunting orcs returned, Arnold didn't let Jiujiuya and Jiujiu run out of the shed, and surrounded them with everyone to watch the excitement as usual, and greeted Hissing along the way.

Of course, he didn't go himself.

Sijiu came back with the meat, and saw the shed under the tree, his eyes were very novel.

He turned around the shed back and forth, and then sat down with his head bowed and bent over at Anol's beckoning signal.

Although this simple tree branch shed is not high enough, it is big enough.

When Arnold built the shed, considering that the rain would not stop when it would rain, he also planned the location of the big rock under the big tree.

Even if another hiss comes in, it won't be crowded.

Moreover, they don't have to go into the rain to cut and process the large pieces of fresh meat they brought back.

Arnold also built two fires under the shed, one for roasting meat as usual, and the other for cooking sliced ​​meat soup.

While waiting for the meat to be cooked, Arnold's small language class started as usual.

Chirp, chirp, chirp, and even hiss, they all learned very seriously.

Speaking of which, Hissing's learning ability is indeed as strong as Arnold expected, very strong.

After only a few days of learning, he was able to use the newly learned language flexibly and have some relatively brief conversations with Arnold.

To be honest, Arnold is not only very satisfied with this, but also very happy.

After all, he had been waiting for this day for a long time, and now that it finally arrived, it would be a lie to say that he was unhappy.

After the meal, Arnold saw that they had nothing to do, so in the name of teaching them to distinguish colors, he took out the colored small stones wrapped in animal skins, as well as the ores with various colors and energy contained in them, and some Put ten crystals in front of Jiujiuya, Jiujiu and Hissing.

After teaching them to distinguish the colors of various stones, Arnold pointed to one of them, a transparent unknown ore shaped like emerald stone, as if inadvertently and as if testing his learning achievements, he asked, "What is this?" A kind of ore, where did you get it?"

In order not to speak too fast, hissing and not being able to understand, when Arnold said this question, he said it word by word.

Hissing looked at the ore, frowned and thought for a while, before saying, "I picked it up in the mountains."

Did you pick it up in the mountains?Anol's eyes trembled slightly, and he asked further: "Where is that mountain? Do you remember?"

Hissing nodded: "I remember. Far, far away."

"How far is it?" Arnold realized after asking that he might not be able to answer the question, so he asked instead, "If you go, it will take a few days to get there?"

Hissing shook his head and said, "A few days is not enough, it takes a long time to fly."

"That's it!" Arnold sighed secretly in disappointment, stopped asking about the origin of this ore, turned his finger to another unknown fiery red crystal that looked like crystal, and asked: "This kind of stone, you are Where did you get it?"

Hissing thought for a while, and said, "I dug it from the corpse of the dead red fur beast."

After saying that, Chiu pointed to one of the dozens of remaining crystals, an oval dark green crystal shaped like a sparrow egg, and said, "This kind of stone was dug here from a dead tree."

When hissing said the word "here", he pointed to the root of the big tree beside him.

Hearing this, Anor quickly asked: "Where are the beasts and trees that can dig out such crystals from the corpses and tree roots after death?"

Hissing said: "Beasts exist in the mountains and forests where you can't see the road clearly, and trees exist in the forests with many moving plants."

Arnold was slightly stunned: "The forest where you can't see the road? What kind of forest is that? Is it a rainy forest?"

I just learned the word rain, Sijiu understood it, shook his head and said, "No."

What kind of forest is that?It can't be a forest without the slightest light inside! ?Anol frowned, for a moment he couldn't think of what kind of forest he was talking about.

Seeing him like this, Hissing picked up a crystal nearby and put it in his hand, and said, "You want it, don't you? Here it is for you."

Anol froze for a moment: "Is it really for me?"

Hissing nodded, waved his big hand and said, "Yes. I'll give it all to you."

Anol was completely stunned now.

He was stunned for a while before returning to his senses.

Looking at the pile of colorful crystals and ores in front of him, Arnold wanted to refuse, but moved his lips but couldn't say the word "no".

These crystals and ores are very likely to improve his progress in completing important tasks. He really needs them. If he refuses, he doesn't know when he will meet them in the future.

The progress of the completion of the heavy task was too slow, and he didn't have that much time to spend all the time, so he had to seize any opportunity that might improve the progress of the heavy task.

Compared with this, personal emotions seem not so important.

Thinking of this, Arnold finally made up his mind and said, "Thank you then. When I find out where they came from, I will pay you back ten times."

Hissing, pursing his lips and rolling his eyes with a smile: "You don't have to return it. What's mine is yours."

At this moment, the colorful totems on Hissing's face had already been washed away by the heavy rain, and he smiled quite nicely.

Anol didn't look away this time, suppressed the discomfort, smiled back at him, and didn't say any more empty words.
