Orcs’ Time Through Time - Chapter 55
I don’t want him to be sorry. I really want him to know what I think of him and us. I really want to tell him, because I really care about him now. But I can’t tell. Maybe I’m just like this. I don’t like it or hate it in my heart. I can’t say anything. I can only expect him to speak. I can only expect him to confirm or deny it. Can shake or nod.
Because he kept holding me and couldn’t see my face, something might slip off my face, so when he let go of me, I should have covered my eyes with my hand.
Probably a little worried, he grabbed my hand and gently licked my eyelids with his tongue: “I’m sorry, Arnold, I’m sorry…”
It was so itchy, so I pushed his head away.
He looked at me, with some golden brown eyes like goshawks against my shadow, “The high priest said, your soul is not complete, and I also know that part of your soul is dead, and you often Feeling very tired, the high priest said, that is the result of your incomplete soul. Maybe someday, the remaining part of your soul will die because of incompleteness and fatigue.” At this point, he seemed a little sad. The hand holding my hand also made me grin in pain because it was pulled too tightly.
Maybe he noticed that I was clenching my teeth, and he seemed to let go of his hand and touch my hair with some affection. He always treated me like this. It was obvious that my heart was actually eight years older than him, but he was because of his age. Eight years older than my body, he always treats me like my father and brother, “You also know that water can reach the gods, so when we sacrifice to the gods, we will offer them as clean and mellow as water, but not just the wine of water to the gods. The aquarium is said to be able to reach deep waters and obtain the purest water that can reach the gods. The high priest said, if the chief of the aquarium is willing, maybe they can help me find water that can reach the gods to make wine. Maybe, I can. Please God to make your soul complete. I also know that You Xi of the Shui Clan does not want me. He just wants to marry our patriarch so that their Shui Clan can achieve the same status as the Yi Clan in the He Clan, and he also knows that he is. I want the power in the Hindus. So I thought, if you use these, I will change it too. Anyway, I won’t like him, as long as he is willing to help me find the purest water, he wants status. , I’m just… even if you are upset, I’m… I’m too… sorry…”
I never knew he was so scared because of my past nonsense, nor did I know that the high priest actually lied to him! I know that the high priest will lie to Luo Lei, and I also know that if it is my business, it is estimated that Luo Lei will easily lose his judgment. I think this is also his care. I also thought about many ways the high priest lied to him, but I never thought that he lied to Luo Lei was a statement that I myself had forgotten a long time ago!
I don’t know if the water here can reach the gods, or if the aquarium can really find the purest water. But if it is pure, isn’t the water in the snow-capped mountains more pure? Or is it rootless water that hasn’t landed? It is also possible that the people here and ours have different ideas. But if wine and water can reach the gods, then I must make a pot of the clearest wine, and the gods will punish the high priest who pretends to be a god!
Since he also said that he really wanted to make You Xi another partner, I think he probably didn’t lie to me, but his ridiculous and pitiful performance and thoughts, so I couldn’t help but licked the corners of my mouth. Laughed.
Seeing that everyone is busy, I waved to him and motioned for him to come with me.
On the one hand, I went to the bullock cart I made first, took out a clay pot sealed with clay, and opened it to him.
This is my new sweet potato wine. I originally planned to show it to him and let him know what wine is. It’s just that there were so many things later that I haven’t been able to tell him. I wanted to come out later. This jar of wine never wanted to make others cheaper, so I also brought it out.
The sweet potato wine is better than those fruit wines in that it has a much higher degree and a more mellow taste. At the same time, because this wine is distilled several times, it is much more mellow and clear than those fruit wines. It is in a clay pot. At that time, against the sun overhead, it was already faintly glowing with golden light.
I asked Luo Lei to take a wooden bowl, and when I poured some out for him, Luo Lei’s eyes were straight, as clear as spring water, and exuding a strong aroma of wine, Luo Lei’s hand holding the bowl was a little trembling. . Had it not been for Hongda who was busy cutting down trees with Canaan at the moment, and cutting the plank with the axe I brought, I would not dare to take it out. The first time I made wine, all the wine entered into Luo Lei’s stomach when he didn’t know it. If Luo Lei knew it, it wouldn’t hurt to die!
Luo Lei looked at the clay pot in my hand, then looked at me: “This is…”
I laughed: “This is wine for the gods.”
Luo Lei almost subconsciously tilted the wine bowl in his hand slightly, and very cautiously spilled part of the wine into the sky and another part to the ground.
This seems very random, but this kind of ceremony is a ceremony to dedicate the heavens and the earth and the gods at any time. I can even see a gleam in Luo Lei’s eyes. I looked at him and stuffed the clay pot in his hand: “This is the wine I offer to the gods. This is the wine that the gods like. So don’t worry, I will be tired. There are too many things to think about, not because of the soul.”
He seemed a little unbelievable, staring at me blankly: “No?”
I was almost amused by him. I never thought that my casual lie would have worried him for so long. Who else in the world can be so cute and funny? Such an interesting person, where can I find a second one? So I put the clay pot into his arms and covered the mouth of the pot with a wood-wrapped straw lid: “Really not, although a part of my soul is indeed dead, it’s like our hair, we We lose some hair every day, but we grow new hair every day, so the hair on our heads has not been reduced. And because there are so many hairs, even if we lose some, it doesn’t necessarily happen. You too I know, I was sent by the gods, how could I die so easily? And in the past, I only lived on a part of the soul, and I lived for more than ten years. If it weren’t for that part of the soul that didn’t want to live anymore, he would not die. . So, you don’t need to worry at all.”
Despite what I said, he hesitated and asked, “Really?”
I was really going to be dumbfounded by this long-winded old man, so I nodded to him again: “Absolutely not, you see, we don’t have children yet. You don’t like children. Maybe we have a chance. We’ll give birth to two. You, I’m afraid you can’t take it. Besides, if I’m not here anymore, what will Aru do? What do you do? You can only grill meat! You can only salt grilled meat! Ari said that he doesn’t want to eat it, he eats it every day Salt barbecue, he was worried that he would become a salt bear, although I told his brother is a bear, he is not, but he is still worried that he will become a salt bear with his brother in the future. You say, how can I not stay? “When it comes to these, I am almost ashamed.
Maybe it was because I was amused by what I said, Luo Lei finally showed a smile on his face: “So you don’t want to go…”
When I finally saw a ray of sunshine, of course I nodded hurriedly: “Well, never leave. By the way, you can tell me now, what are you thinking about with Canaan?”
Hearing what I said, it seemed that he suddenly remembered something. He put the carefully sealed wine can back into the car very carefully, and looked at the Youzu who was sitting in the new ox cart without looking far away. He pulled it. I stepped aside and said, “That’s right. At that time, I also felt that, for you, I could not accept You Xi. I also know that this is too much for you. So, I said to Canaan, If you go, then I agree that they will go with you.”
I was shocked by him: “Aren’t you afraid they will take me?”
I originally wanted to use the term kidnapping, but when I think about it, kidnapping doesn’t seem to be said here, so I can only replace it with arrest.
But Luo Lei clearly understood. He shook his head, “I may not worry about others, but I still know Canaan.” He seemed a little unhappy. “He won’t catch you, and everyone from the wandering race I admire you very much. They respect the people they admire.”
I don’t know why he is a little unhappy because others admire me, but because I am unhappy, I still feel that I have a subtle sense of accomplishment, so he smiled and pulled his hand: “You are assured of them. , But they are very loyal people, and they are relatively straightforward, but they are better managed.”
I’m obviously accepted by Luo Lei, so he nodded: “Yes, so I ask Canaan, if you leave, he will bring the wandering people to follow you, wait for me to come together, we can To build a new tribe.”
Perhaps it was the improvement of the new tribe. He seemed to regret: “The Wing Clan has been for hundreds of years, and the high priest has been a priest for more than 20 years. When I was very young, he was a priest, so I Thinking, he would want to be a priest forever? He would not want you or me to replace him. For the tribe, a peaceful life is the most important thing. Even if we do a lot, they can’t stand up for us. This No one can be blamed. It’s just that if you want to change, it should not be easy for the Hindus.”
I have told him about the changes in the world, the development of civilization, the progress of society, the society of slavery, the society of feudalism, and the era when you can fly without wings, and even talk about it. To the era of fantasy mecha. Therefore, Luo Lei somewhat understood the rationalization of private ownership and social changes, and also knew that the existence of the high priest hindered the establishment of the majesty of the patriarch. I also know that those tribes who are accustomed to a peaceful life and are more selfish than others and want to maintain this kind of life are aware of the long and possible problems in the process of accepting change. But he couldn’t help feeling regret if he wanted him to really leave the people and environment he knew.
When he thought the atmosphere would be dignified, Luo Lei quickly raised his head: “But it’s okay. Soon, we will be able to establish a new tribe. More and more people will join us. We will definitely To be the best tribe will not allow our tribe to be bullied and occupied by others.”
Knowing that he didn’t want his own emotions to affect me, I also nodded to him very cooperatively: “Yes, we will definitely.”
In fact, I know a little bit about the place we are going, but I didn’t expect that even what kind of place we are going to is the result of the discussions between Luo Lei and Canaan. Luo Lei even knows why we are going to such a place. What geographical advantage does it occupy. Even the bull in the other bullock cart was caught by Luo Lei and Canaan together, and then Luo Lei taught Canaan to put a nose ring on the bull. Suddenly, my admiration for Luo Lei grew even more.
Luo Lei also felt embarrassed because he stood and talked to me for a long time. Seeing that A Rui had come to ask me if I could pull wild vegetables, he picked A Rui and kissed him twice, and Luo Lei also went to help build the bullock cart.
Monte, Ley and the others were rubbing the hemp rope with rotten flax fibers to watch things by the way. Alin and Aman sat there with A Xing, picking the wild vegetables we took from time to time, and sorting them into categories for the evening or the next morning. eat. Rona and the others are catching small animals nearby again. They are very well-behaved and don’t run around. They are all within sight. On the other hand, I took Ari, Aque, and the two children of Belluo’s family to find something to eat.
At dinner, we actually saw someone rushing to us with a cow with two wooden baskets on its back and a few sheep with the same small baskets…
