Crossing to Live in the Wilderness Plains - Chapter 176

“You are here.” Seeing Chen Qi and the two walking in, Yehuo quickly gave the other person the position near the fire, and then handed the other side the bones that were being polished. This is the first time he has done this kind of work today. , I have no confidence in my own technology, “Can you look at such an arrow?”

Chen Qi took it over and took a look. In addition to cutting out the shape of Yehuo’s bone arrow, he also used a grindstone to smooth the end of the arrow. The fingers felt a little greasy, and it could be seen that the other party spent a lot of thought on this thing.

“Not bad.” Chen Qi praised, then took out a piece of paper from his small backpack, with several arrow shapes drawn on it, he handed the note to Yehuo, and then beckoned other orcs to come and look Look, “You guys try making the arrow a little zigzag, like this.”

Chen Qi’s finger pointed to one of the shapes. The arrows made before are all uniform and smooth. This kind of arrow can increase speed and accuracy when using a wooden bow, but it will be weak when replaced with a much larger siege weapon, Chen Qi There are mainly two arrow shapes on the paper taken out.

One is a smooth Mitsubishi type, while the other is serrated on this base. This kind of arrow can better increase the damage area, thereby destroying the wound, and with the power of the siege crossbow, the lethality will be stronger than the previous arrows.

After listening to Chen Qi’s explanation, the orcs changed all the half-made arrows in their hands into this shape, while Chen Qi and Aze went to the other side and fiddled with the other orcs to make catapults.

A busy day will soon end. After nightfall, some orcs will bring back the work they can do at home and continue to make them. Even though the street lamps outside the house are no longer lit up in rows like in summer, the light-transmitting windows, I can still see that the house is brightly lit by the fire, and occasionally there are people talking and laughing.

The snowflakes began to fall again with the cold wind. Recently, the weather has been snowing every few days. Thanks to the snow that was cleared out by the tribe, the ice city wall was thickened by several meters. The height of the day will be the same as the height of the original ice city wall.

Chen Qi helped A Ze put on the animal skin cape hat, and then stuffed his frozen hand into the other party’s warm palm. A Ze took the hair back on his hand as soon as he went out. Even if it was not covered with hair, his palm was still It was warm, but Chen Qi’s limbs were cold in winter, and he couldn’t sleep at night without holding Aze.

“It’s only been one day, and the snow has accumulated so thick again.” Stepping on the snow that was almost knee-length, Chen Qi stabilized his body and sighed as he walked.

“Someone will clean it up tomorrow morning.” Azera led Chen Qi to the house step by step.

“I wonder how the Lion and Wolf tribe is doing now?”

“There are so many of them, they will be fine.” A Ze squeezed Chen Qi’s palm comfortingly.

Chen Qi smiled and stopped talking about this topic.

When the two pushed open the courtyard door, A Jing was building a snowman with a few little orcs in the yard. The oil lamps around the yard were all lit, and the little wolf cub was wearing a big animal skin coat and watched them play in the corner.

Seeing Chen Qi coming in, everyone stopped what they were doing. Chen Qi smiled and pinched A Jing’s red face, “Why are you still playing outside when it’s dark?”

“We’ll be done right away.” A Jing pointed to a row of snowmen under the fig tree, and his eyes were extremely bright, reflecting the light not far away.

Chen Qi looked in the direction of the snowman. The shape of the snowman had already been built, and all that was left was to prepare the facial features and limbs.

And playing with Ajing were a few orc little female children, about the same age as Ajing, who only wore a thin animal skin coat. Except for the facial features, all other places were beastly turned into hair. The other party is still standing upright, just like a group of small beasts.

Since the collapse of the Yanshan tribe, Ajing has not played with his peers for a long time. These little orcs were brought by Axu in the afternoon. Originally, he wanted Ajing to take them to learn new knowledge, but a few The little orcs had just arrived in an unfamiliar environment, and everyone was more restrained. After thinking about it, A Jing planned to take them to play first, so that he was still building a snowman at night.

Chen Qi looked at the excited little faces, and became interested, rolled up his sleeves, and said, “I’ll pile with you.”

A Jing smiled and greeted a few little orcs and he went back to the house to get the materials, and then a group of people got busy with the dim lights in the yard.

“Hey, why did you use a sweet potato for your mouth? This sweet potato is too big, oh, look, your mouth is broken.”

“Can this leaf be used to make clothes?”

“You might need to take a rope and tie it to the snowman.”

“Leaves are good for hats.”

“Your hand is crooked, it should be a little further back.”

……

The noise in the yard was so loud that even a few patients who were cultivating in Chen Qi’s house couldn’t help pulling the curtains open to look out. When A Xu came to pick up the little orcs, all he saw was a large number of small orcs pointing at the side. While working hard.

“…What are they doing?” Axu asked Azer, who was walking over with a small bundle of twigs.

A Ze handed the bizarre branch to the little orcs, then walked to A Xu and replied with a smile, “I’m playing with a snowman.”

“snowman?”

A Ze tapped the snowman with his chin, “It’s those things.”

A Xu approached curiously, he had never seen a snowman before, and was a little surprised to see the snowman in the row under the fig tree.

After all, this is the first time the little orcs have been stacked. In fact, the stacking is not good. Even if A Jing and Chen Qi have helped to adjust them, they are still a little crooked, but for orcs who have never seen these things, it can be said that Very refined.

Seeing that it was Axu, a little orc ran over and took Axu’s hand, “Axu, I made that one.”

A Xu rubbed the snow off the opponent’s head and praised: “It’s amazing, I didn’t expect your snowman to be so beautiful.”

Hearing the words, the little orc puffed out his chest, and his lips cracked to reveal a big smile. During this period of running around, even though the little orcs have been carefully protected by the adult females, they still lose several laps, especially a few little orcs with high fever, they can’t eat at all after fainting, their cheeks They sunk deeply into it, and thanks to them being females, they have strong recovery ability. After the fever subsided, they would be good to sleep, otherwise they would not have dared to let them stay outside for so long.

When the other little orcs saw Axu approaching, they followed them around, holding the other’s hand to show him the results of their own production. Axu patiently looked at them one by one, nodding and complimenting each time they looked at them.

Chen Qi, who saw this situation next to him, couldn’t help laughing. Axu was tall and his face was stiffer than that of a normal female. No matter how he looked, he didn’t seem like he would be liked by children. It would be nice not to frighten the child to cry. Chen Qi never thought that he would allow the little beasts to drag him around, “They really like you.”

Not long after the snowman was built, the wind blew, and the temperature dropped a little. It seemed that there should be a blizzard tonight.

Chen Qi shuddered and didn’t want to stay outside anymore. He closed his cloak and suggested to A Xu, “Or let these little orcs stay at my house tonight, A Jing’s heated kang bed is big enough. , if you sleep sideways, it should be enough for them to squeeze.”

Many houses in the tribe have built new kang beds in the past two days, but it will take some time before they can be used. Now many orcs lay a skin on the ground and sleep by the fire at night. Naturally, there is no warm kang bed as comfortable.

“Will it be too much trouble for you?” A Xu hesitated for a moment. Chen Qi’s family also took in a lot of orcs, but most of them were sent when they were sick before. Now the accommodation in the tribe has been arranged, but there is no need to do so. Go to Chen Qi’s house to stop people.

“It’s okay, you don’t have to worry, just let them stay here tonight and have dinner here too.”

Seeing that Chen Qi was not reluctant, A Xu thought about it and nodded in agreement.

A Ze went outside to dig several buckets of snow and came back. He first burned a large bucket of hot water in the washroom. Chen Qi asked A Jing to take these little orcs in to wash them, and he went to check the condition of the sick people. .

The most seriously ill orcs have been transferred to the heated kang bed in the hall. The heat on their bodies has dissipated, and the people have also woken up, but their bodies are abnormally weak because they have been ill for too long.

Seeing that no one was getting hot again and again, Chen Qi was relieved and went to the stove to cook dinner for the large group of people at home.

Although Luther’s condition has improved, he has not left. After the other female sons who were taking care of them were taken to work, he took over the work of caring for the patients, because Chen Qi said before that the cooking was handed over to him. He, so Luther did not rashly prepare dinner, and he also knew that the way of cooking in Qi Zecheng was far from theirs.

Seeing that Chen Qi was busy, Luther hurried over to help.

Because there are many patients at home, Chen Qi’s food is relatively light, a vegetarian porridge with several kinds of stir-fried vegetables, like Carlo’s method of frying everything, he did not do any of it.

Although there are many vegetarians, the people of the Luoshui tribe who are used to eating meat do not despise them. They rarely eat this kind of food, which is almost all plants. In the past few days, they realized that so many plants can be eaten. If I could have known each other earlier, I would not have had to be hungry for so many winters in the past.

Everyone sighed while eating, and secretly rejoiced that it was a wise move to choose to take refuge in Qi Ze City. If they stayed in the Lion and Wolf tribe now, it is hard to say whether the high fever would be cured, or whether they would be eaten by the Hyena Dragon. Woolen cloth.

A Jing picked a lot of figs for the little beasts to wash. They almost never took a bath after the winter. There is hot water at the moment, and A Jing is staring at him. The little orc almost didn’t rub off a layer of skin before finally washing it out.

Seeing the little orcs who had been washed cleanly and even came out with a unique fragrance of figs, the patients who were sitting together were a little embarrassed. They didn’t wash it after winter, because I’m used to the smell on my body, but I don’t feel anything. Now when I compare it with the little beasts, I suddenly feel that my body is smelly and dirty.

Chen Qi looked at everyone’s expressions with a funny look, “After a while, you should also wash up after eating.” Aze has changed the hot water in the bathroom, and the water that is about to boil is enough for these people.

Several people glanced at each other and looked at Chen Qi gratefully. The movement of eating on their hands accelerated a lot, and they all wanted to go in and clean up earlier.

With the passing of several blizzards, the motionless Hyena dragons were almost covered with snow into small snowdrifts. If those eyes were still blinking, no one would have noticed these small snowdrifts. Still alive.

During this period of time, there have been no orc tribes to join the lion and wolves again, but the hyena dragons have already eaten the flesh and blood of the orcs. Nor will it die. Therefore, in the days when there is no need to hunt or rush, they quietly confront the lion and wolf tribe, and they don’t even bother to move. Anyway, the chill that these snowflakes seep out has no effect on them.

The Lion-Wolf Tribe had been confronting this group of Hyena Dragons for more than a month, and no one took the first step to break the deadlock. The Giant Wolf God yawned boredly, thinking that the Hyena Dragons would face off against the Lion-Wolf Tribe like this. By the end of the winter, the Hyena dragon leader finally opened his eyes from his dormant sleep, and the snow on his body rustled down as soon as he stood up, shook his body slightly, and the snow slid down the silver-white scales. , no more snowflakes stay on the body.

The hyena dragon leader took a deep look at the ice city wall that was still dark and full of orc females, then slowly turned around and said softly, “Let’s go.” All acted.

A small number of hyena dragons walked in front of the hyena dragon leader first, and then the other hyena dragons began to spread out, and groups surrounded the hyena dragon leader in the middle. Walk in the direction of the forest.

A few letter eagles who didn’t know where to hide and rest found the movement of the Hyena Dragons. The long-lost birdsong resounded through the sky, flapping their wings and following behind the Hyena Dragons. This time, in order not to be roared by the Hyena Dragons, they did not dare to. It flew in front of the Hyena Dragons first, and after the first few bird calls, it fell into silence in an instant, but the feathers that fell every once in a while still pointed the way for the later companions.

“Let’s go like this?” The giant wolf **** squatted back on his own exclusive mount. Obviously, he couldn’t understand the decision of the hyena leader to leave suddenly. According to the strength of the hyena leader, even the hyena dragon group may suffer heavy losses. , but it is not impossible to capture this orc tribe.

“Yeah.” The Hyena Dragon leader flicked his tail gently. It does have the strength to capture this tribe, but it may need to lose a lot of subordinates in the early stage. It has already hunted a lot of orcs this year, and it is not in a hurry. At the moment, there will be a chance to eat this tribe with the least loss in the future.
