Chapter 97 The Return
Chapter 97 The Return
After wading through mountains and rivers, overcoming thorns and thorns, and finally almost day and night, Bai and his party finally saw the figure with the long neck stretched out again.
At this time, the young males somewhat understood Li Shizhen's another intention of arranging to stock Miss Brachiosaurus. People returning from their trips saw the mascot of Howling Valley from a distance, and they would feel kindness and joy in their hearts out of thin air.
Bai looked at the sky, even if Miss Brachiosaurus could be seen from a distance, it would probably be dark by the time he arrived at Taniguchi, and he would still be in time for dinner.He waved his hand, signaling the young people who had transformed into beast shapes to stop and rest for a while.
Not only the males, but even the females on their backs had never been on such a journey before, and they were all a little tired at this moment, and they all breathed a sigh of relief when they saw Bai's gesture.
Bai found a dense bush by himself, and when he came out, it was already a big white tiger with clothes in its mouth.Bai Hu looked at himself, a little dissatisfied, quickly rolled on the ground, and nodded in satisfaction after getting some dust from branches and leaves.
Yong and Mo looked at each other, and couldn't figure out what this guy was doing for a while. For convenience along the way, the three of them were in human form most of the time, and the other orcs were in animal form. With so many females and things, we have to keep A few human figures take care of one or two.
It's all over the ground, and it's even more unclear why Bai tossed and turned into a beast shape, rolling or something.But everyone never figured out what was going on in their leader's head, so they didn't struggle anymore.
Everyone rested in place, ate and drank water. We all know that this should be the last trimming before arriving home. The nearby herbivores and predators were wiped out by them before, and a new batch came at this time. But because the orcs in the valley often patrolled, there were not many of them, and it was considered safe. Everyone looked relaxed.
The white tiger looked at the sky and let out a low growl. The orcs found their own females, arched them, and signaled them to climb on their backs.Mo and Yong also checked whether the things carried by the orcs were firmly tied. After helping Baihu put his bag and clothes on his back, Baihu roared impatiently, and everyone stood in line The shape starts again.
Li Shizhen was wiping his sweat in the valley at this time. He had just finished transplanting wheat and other varieties, and the corn was about to mature. look around.
In the distance, there was a long clear cry from outside the valley, and then the patrolling orcs sent a clear whistle. This signal meant that someone was coming. Li Shixuan was overjoyed. According to the calculation of the time, he might be in vain. came back.
He and Ah Che were probably the happiest among the females, as soon as they smiled, they immediately carried them to Taniguchi to greet them.From a distance, he saw the big white tiger running fast. Li Shizhen smiled and looked at it carefully from a distance. Well, he seemed to have lost some weight.
As the large army thrown down by the white tiger appeared in the field of vision, Li Shizhen was a little stunned. Except for the bags on the backs of those males, where did so many females come from...
The white tiger came closer and panted a little. He rubbed Li Shizhen's cheek dissatisfiedly, looking at what those bastards were doing behind him, he finally led them back, but his own female didn't even look at him, groaning.
Li Shizhen blushed a little from the fluffy head and the big cat's wheezing heat, but he still smiled and hugged the big cat's neck and tidied up his fur. He lost weight, and he, who always loves to be clean, still has a lot of dust and fallen leaves on his body.
The big cat happily circled his female and licked his cheeks affectionately, rubbing back and forth.I didn't see the ghost-like expressions of the new females behind.
The young males in the team all look familiar. If you see the leader rubbing against his females so cute and coquettish every day, you will get used to him being such a good cat.
Yongzai and Ache are all friends, and they can't let go of other people at all.
Aman also appeared in Taniguchi without knowing when, and now he is fine, only Mo is around him, it seems that after the education of A Che and Li Shizhen, his attitude towards Mo is much better now, At least they are like ordinary friends, the two of them are talking, although Aman's attitude is not intimate, but it is much better than before.
As for the new females: …
What a strange place this place is!There is such a big guy outside, and seeing them barking so loudly and slowly stretching their long necks over, is it scary?
Miss Brachiosaurus: The Lun family is asking if you have any sweets! I hate it!He didn’t feed him, hehe~ The mascot who was used to being fed by the orcs in the valley recently turned his long neck sadly and slowly, and continued to eat. Only delicious food can heal the injured glass of a foodie Heart……
The females in this valley are even stranger!The new females looked at Li Shizhen with a bit of awe in their eyes at this time. Didn't they see such a terrifying white tiger bowing their heads and ears to him? A powerful male like Mo Heyong also looked at such two long-haired tigers. The obedient look of the female, who is exactly the same, is completely different from the decisive look outside.
There shouldn't be anything scary in this valley, why do those powerful males suddenly become so strange.However, they looked at the male next to them, but fortunately there was no change, so these new females followed the male next to them closely, staying close to each other.
The female around Tian also looked a little more cautious, carefully observing the situation around Howling Valley.
Although Li Shizhen had many doubts in his heart, the big cats needed a good rest when they came back from a long journey, so he temporarily pressed the question in his mind and motioned everyone to go back to Howling Valley first.
The big cat obediently followed behind him, with its tail wrapping around his waist. Li Shizhen didn't stop him, but just tugged at his ears and let him go. The two got on the raft first.
At this time, the weather is getting hotter, and it is the time when the vegetation is verdant. The swamp at the mouth of the valley looks more like a lake. The waterway in the deeper swamp has been dredged and straightened by the orcs. The aquatic trees on both sides of the waterway hang down green and thick branches. The air roots protrude densely from the mud bank, and occasionally frogs, dragonflies, and butterflies pass by.
The scene when they got off the raft stunned the new females even more. In the distance, there are neat terraced fields on the hillside, and square flat fields below the slope.
Thanks to the efforts of the females, the reclaimed fields have reached a considerable scale, and many crops have been planted on the slope. The corn is about to mature. From the bottom of the slope, there is a large area of lush greenery, and wheat and other plants are also in their own fields. There are not many, but the dotted colors make the whole hillside look lively.
On the further slopes are neat tree houses, and there are rows of neat fences under the trees, where animals can be seen moving inside.
From time to time, there are females and males shuttled under the trees and in the fields. The sun is setting and the smoke is rising. The fright and hardships they have traveled along the way seem to be completely washed away by the peace and tranquility here.
Li Shizhen had already told him to prepare more meals today, and everyone in the valley knew that the salt exchange team was coming back today, and they were all beaming.
These new females originally thought that the valley was very scary, and they were already mentally prepared, but they did not expect such a scene in front of them.
Li Shizhen also had a headache when he saw these females when he looked back. There are so many people, I’m afraid there are not enough free tree houses. Let’s squeeze together today, and we will have dinner soon. Let them wash up first. They are tired from the journey, and it’s okay to eat after a rest. good.As for the males, let them put the things on their backs into storage first.
He called Asi, pointed to the females behind him and said something, Asi nodded, and walked over to lead the females to wash in the creek behind the slope.
But these females reacted in a panic for a while, and grabbed the male beside them, a little bit reluctant to leave.
Li Shizhen frowned. The females didn't know what they had experienced. Why did they see Assi's reaction so strange? He called Assi back and walked over by himself. The females looked at him even more strangely. See how... scared?
Li Shizhen was secretly surprised that he himself had always been very popular, and this was the first time he encountered such a situation. He stopped at a distance and stopped trying to get closer. He only told these males to let them lead the females. Go to the stream at the back to wash up, and then come to eat later, their own bags can be unloaded to the side first, and Li Shizhen will ask someone else to clean them up.
Li Shizhen shook his head, touched the big cat behind him, forget it, this guy is now in the shape of a beast, and he can't ask anything.
Tian and the others unloaded the things on their backs and led the females to the back. They also needed to wash and rest for a while.
It happened that Xiao and his team of males in the valley were resting, and they were going to take turns to set them up after eating. Li Shizhen asked them to help transport the things to the warehouse, and the big cat followed him every step of the way.
Li Shizhen stopped in his tracks: "I'll go clean it up, aren't you tired, why don't you go back to the house to have a rest first, and I'll send it to you after dinner."
The big cat groaned and rubbed Li Shizhen's cheek, so it didn't want to. It came back with great difficulty, its tail entangled even tighter, and it also stuck to its body and rubbed it.
Li Shizhen was wrapped tightly by the big cat for a while, such a big fluffy animal would be warm if it rubbed like this in winter, but in this weather...
Li Shizhen couldn't bear it anymore, he was very happy when the big cat came back and didn't want to leave, but he was sweating so much, he finally grabbed the big cat's ears and opened his head a little.
The big cat stared at him with aggrieved blue eyes.
Li Shizhen was speechless, finally surrendered, and softened his voice: "It's hot to rub like this... Follow if you like."
The big cat lightly licked the fine beads of sweat on Li Shizhen's forehead. The rough tongue of the feline brushed across his forehead, which made Li Shizhen feel a little hotter. He didn't let go of Li Shizhen, so there was still a bit of grievance in his eyes.
Li Shizhen knew that this guy must be acting like a baby on purpose, but this time the separation time was really longer, and he was a little bit reluctant, so he pulled the big cat's beard affectionately and let him go.
There was a lot of salt, Li Shizhen took a look, these bags were actually very strong, not made of animal skin, but made of hemp material, he gave a slight "huh" and was very surprised, this Beicheng really has some skills.
Until now, the poor law-abiding earthman Li Shizhen thought that the salt was exchanged and the females were taken in.
The big cat dragged the bag he had carried all the way back in favor, and let out a proud "owwow".
Li Shizhen saw that the bag was bulging, but it was not as heavy as salt. When he opened it, he found that it was seeds, which were sorted and packed in cloth bags.He didn't think much about it, he just thought that the big cat got it in exchange, and scratched the big cat's chin in praise, in exchange for his comfortable purring sound.For a moment, the eyes of Xiao and others who were helping to carry it were blinded.
Facing the speechless eyes of these males, the big cat flicked its tail triumphantly, and squinted at them.
Li Shizhen looked down at these seeds, and couldn't tell them apart for a while, but at least there were cotton seeds and grains in them. This Beicheng is really not easy.At least they are ahead of the curve in terms of planting and weaving, and they can use these things to trade, which shows that they have no shortage at all, and their material living standards are probably not low.
However, Li Shizhen was carrying the small cloth bag containing grain, and the "日" mark on it, don't be too familiar, he looked at the big cat suspiciously.
The big cat tilted its head and looked at Li Shizhen, blinking its innocent blue eyes.
Li Shixuan: ...
Damn it's here again, don't think you can hide every time you act cute!Li Shizhen tugged the big cat's ear, but he refused to say, forget it, anyway, he could always ask, and he didn't believe that the big cat kept its animal shape all the time.
This mark must have something to do with Bay City.The last time I encountered Li Shizhen by the waterfall, I still remember it very clearly, the attack above the head, the emergency landing, and the corpse on the tree.Big Mao's explanation at the time was such a mark, and now he actually saw this mark on the bag he exchanged for.
And this mark, Li Shizhen looked at it, and it was carefully dyed with paint. He was thoughtful about whether it could be dyed already.
The dinner in the evening was very lively because the tribe returned and some new members were added. The dinner included fish and meat, porridge and vegetables. When the big cat was away, Li Shizhen also had a good exchange with the females in the valley. Yi, many of the seasoning seeds he harvested from the south have sprouted. Except for the seeds that must be used, other flowers and leaves can be used as seasonings, so now the food standard in the valley has improved again. .
He and Muapa have also made some achievements in exploring ceramics, and those clumsy, fragile and fragile clay pots and bowls are the final products.Before the new achievements could improve the mold problems needed for smelting in time, they first improved the living standards in the valley.
Originally, Muapa objected to Li Shizhen's insistence on making clay pots and bowls first, but it was Li Shizhen who did it, and he couldn't resist.
However, after the final pottery was made, the improvement in food quality also left the strange old man speechless. People who like to close a small black house do not like self-torture. Few people can refuse food offensives.
In such a lively scene, even the uneasy new members let go of some worries, sat next to their males, and enjoyed the food quietly. They haven’t eaten hot food for a long time, and the females are no better than The males, after such a long period of tossing, they didn't fall down, which means that the males have taken care of them properly.
The female beside Tian has been very quiet, his eyes surveyed everything around him, from disbelief to gradually returning to calm.
Li Shizhen's eyes also glanced at this female. Although she was also dressed in rags, this female was obviously different from other people, whether it was the posture of sitting and walking, the original style of the clothes, or the expression on his face. He's restrained, but still not quite the same as the other females.He doesn't get along with Tian like the other females either, and if anything, he seems more independent.
Li Shizhen frowned slightly, Bai really brought back a big trouble, he didn't want any unrest in the valley.
In the evening, when arranging the accommodation, Li Shizhen didn’t let the males lead them. He sent the cute big cats back to the house to wash up first, and led the females to the tree house by himself. There were a lot of them, only three or four. live in one room.Although the females were a little scared, the male beside them encouraged them to get in touch with Li Shizhen more, and they looked at each other. There were so many of them, Li Shizhen was just a female, so it should be fine.
Li Shizhen didn't look at their hesitant expressions, and led the way to the tree house, and they divided the rooms by themselves.
The furnishings in the tree house were arranged by Li Shizhen according to the standard of the guest room. It was neat and clean, and the females had nothing to pay attention to. Although everyone could not understand each other, they still learned a few simple words on the way, "eat", Common words on the road such as "go", "stop", and "sleep" are no problem.
In the end, the special female and the other two females were arranged. Li Shizhen saw the expression of this female calmly, and naturally spotted the inconspicuous "日" mark on the corner of his clothes.
Only through this arrangement, Li Shizhen can be sure that not only the origin of this female is different from other females.Those other females may have come from different backgrounds as well.
Because the communication between them actually used the language of Howling Valley mixed with a lot of gestures and gestures. I don't know if this is the result of Bai Yilu's request.
Li Shizhen didn't stay long, and after saying goodbye with a smile, he quickly went back to the small tree house on the top of the slope. On the way, he met Yong and Ah Che. Li Shizhen had said hello, but he didn't want to be a light bulb, so he wanted to leave immediately Yes, but thinking of Baihu's unreliable cute expression, he stopped Yong immediately.
After carefully asking about things on the road, Li Shizhen's expression darkened again and again, and after saying goodbye to the two of them at last, he couldn't help but sighed up to the sky.Yong is an honest man, he will say what he says, and he will never add oil and vinegar. Li Shizhen is thoughtful and will never omit details. Big cat, I will light the wax for you.
Li Shizhen pinched his fingers, and finally found that he still couldn't beat the white tiger. The big cat had rough skin and thick flesh. If he beat him, he probably wouldn't even hurt his hand. Besides, would it be useful?Li Shizhen really had strong doubts.
Thick-skinned and black-bellied or something, it's completely the nature of that guy. When it was only him and Li Shizhen, he was just provoking the Tyrannosaurus rex and snatching the prey of other predators 【←_←】, now he has someone Let’s not talk about beating tyrannosaurs and hunting dire beasts, but they even went straight up to robbing other orcs and robbing females from other tribes, and even led the team back with such high-handed methods along the way!
Thinking of the terrified eyes of those females looking at him, Li Shizhen had a headache. In their eyes, Bai was probably already a big devil, and he was so intimate with Bai... How to develop work in the future is a big problem.
Li Shizhen stopped walking back to the tree house, instead, he looked around the fence, and after blowing the night breeze to calmly think clearly, he decided to go back.
The big cat is well-proportioned in doing things, but there are many doubts in this matter. Judging from what Yong described, the fire in the village, the boats docked on the shore, and the subsequent war on the shore, it is obvious that the big cat is playing the role of a fisherman. .But it is obvious that his being a fisherman is also very dangerous. If one of them discovers them first, they don't know what will happen now.
Thinking that those people might be fighting with a compound bow like that in Muapa's hand, Li Shizhen's back was dripping with sweat.No matter how powerful a big cat is, can it kill a person a hundred meters away?Those people can!If an accident was discovered at that time...
At least for now, it is certain that the ship belongs to the "Japanese" organization.That particular female and those seeds, the salt all came from the boat.As for the big cat's tactics and reluctance to save him on the road, Li Shizhen was completely powerless. Back in the southern jungle, the big cat also watched with cold eyes.
Li Shizhen himself has no intention of popularizing the values of human society to the top predators who live in such an environment where the weak can eat the strong, and even the guys who have become the leaders of a large number of top predators. It is impossible to work in this place that pays attention to human rights. Makes sense.
But at least he has to ask this guy to improve his memory the next time he ventures out, just take it with salt, isn't it worth it.
When Li Shizhen pushed the door and entered, the big cat was covered with wet fur and looked smaller. Thinking of the dangers and hardships of the big cat's journey, Li Shizhen couldn't say anything to blame.
When the big cat saw Li Shixuan came back, he happily circled around him and said "owwow" a few times.
Li Shizhen was a little helpless: "Change back to the human form, it's almost dry, what should I do if I catch a cold."
The big cat hesitated for a while, Li Shizhen said calmly: "I happen to have something to ask you, if you don't want to say it, just keep the animal shape."
White Tiger: …
Ah Cheng is so swollen today TT.
When Li Shizhen turned his head again, he saw a big human-shaped cat covered in wet clothes: "Isn't it cold when you put on your clothes?"
Bai smiled slightly, put on a piece of clothes casually, and sat beside Li Shizhen. Li Shizhen didn't say anything, just took the animal skin, and motioned him to lower his head to wipe his hair.
Bai directly pillowed on Li Shizhen's lap, staring at the female above with blue eyes, and smiled slightly.
Li Shizhen also smiled slightly, and gently wiped the water droplets on his silver hair with both hands.
For a while, the two didn't talk, but the room was very warm.
After drying his hair, Li Shizhen bowed his head and said, "Don't take such a risk next time."
Bai got up and put his arms around him, and said after a while, "I won't do it next time." The body of the person in his arms was flexible and warm. Although Bai really wanted to avoid his questioning at first, but his female was so smart, he might have asked him a long time ago. He said that just now after passing other people, but he still made him worry.
He must have had a lot of doubts in his heart, but his first reaction was still to worry about himself. The big cat put aside those nervous thoughts and tricks before, with a warm smile on his face.
