These Werebeast Gongs Are Rogues - Chapter 89

Lei Jin wanted to laugh when he saw this, but when he thought that one day this soft little guy would disappear silently in a place he didn’t know, his heart was complicated. Even though he left, he couldn’t see him either. , but at least knowing that he is living a healthy and healthy life under the love of his parents and brothers is enough, maybe a little hypocritical, but Lei Jin’s most real thoughts at the moment.

After watching Mingya, Lei Jin didn’t really want to go home, so he walked around the temple with Xia. It has been more than half a year since he came to this world. As for the building, the whole temple is made of huge long strips of bluestone, a bit like a gold tower. Four sides, each with several layers of steps soaring up.

“Can you go up there and take a look?” Lei Jin asked. Basically, religious buildings such as temples always have various taboos. Although he doesn’t believe it, he doesn’t want to offend.

“Of course, except that it is easy to prevent people from entering the temple, there are no restrictions in other places.” It’s just that there are more than 100 steps, can Lei Jin’s current body withstand it?

“Let’s go up and have a look.” He remembered that before he went to the jungle, Roger had vaguely mentioned that he should go to the temple to have a look. Although he still didn’t understand what Roger wanted to say, he believed that Roger Jie must have his intentions, just taking advantage of today’s opportunity, he simply went to the top to see it clearly.

The two chose to go up the steps from the south. The **** was steep and the steps were very narrow. Lei Jin tried to step up, but one-third of the soles of his feet were hanging in the air. Lei Jin leaned forward, but it wasn’t easy to come down. Lei Jin climbed a little hard, but it wasn’t a big problem. Xia didn’t dare to speak, for fear of distracting him. Lei Jin was a little bored, so he subconsciously counted the steps as he climbed. , when you climb to the platform above it is exactly the ninety-first floor, there is still a layer of steps on the platform above, there is a circular grinding disc-like thing in the middle, and a slender needle is worn through the center. I have seen this thing in front of the building of an Academy of Sciences, but I don’t know what it is, let alone what it does.

“What’s this?” He didn’t go to much school, but he didn’t have much to hide. Fortunately, he was mixed in the road, and he didn’t have any educational requirements.

Xia glanced at him and said, “This is a sundial. It is used to measure time. Before there were no coronas and hourglasses, people in the tribe looked at the sun and stars to judge the time.” Seeing Lei Jin, he was very interested in surrounding the sundial. Spinning around, he couldn’t help but added another sentence and said, “This was made by Ah Me, and everyone in your world knows it.”

“I don’t know, what does this look like?” Lei Jin said indifferently. There are many scales on the surface of the grinding disc. There are twelve large grids and too many small grids. He is too lazy to count them.

“Look at the shadow of the pointer.” Xia pointed and explained it to him carefully.

“It’s almost two o’clock now?” Lei Jin saw that the pointer was almost on the seventh scale. In fact, it was not difficult to open it. It was similar to a clock. The clock moves the pointer, and the sundial moves the pointer shadow.

There are some simple patterns on the small platform under the sundial, with thick lines, very similar to those on the stone pillars at the back of the temple. Around a circle, nine stones are irregularly inlaid around it. No, it should be said that it is eight. Because the third one seems to have been cut out, leaving only a small hole, and there is a very strange symbol between the third and fourth stones, which Lei Jin cannot understand and does not intend to waste your brain cells.

“Where did I give you that black stone when you were in the Tiger Tribe?” Lei Jin stared at the small hole thoughtfully, then raised his head and asked Xia.

“Here.” Xia unfastened it from her neck. This was the only thing Lei Jin gave him, and he kept it close to his body.

Lei Jin stretched out his hand to take it, and pressed the small stone on the small hole. Lei Jin fell into a brief thought.

Seeing Lei Jin’s behavior, Xia was inexplicably a little uneasy, so she interrupted him and said, “There’s nothing to see up there, the wind is so strong, let’s go down.”

“Well, that’s fine.” Lei Jin got up.

The temple is high in terrain, with an extremely wide field of vision, neat houses, and wide streets at its feet. The tribe is densely forested, and the entire Leopard tribe is hidden in a yellowish leaf, and the autumn is getting stronger.

Going up from the south and going down from the east, Lei Jin counted it, and it was still ninety-one floors. After calculating this, adding the top floor all around, it was exactly three hundred and sixty-five floors. The number of days in a year, this Is it a coincidence?

Lei Jin sneezed several times on the way down from the temple. Xia guessed that he had caught a cold, so she told Lei Jin to hurry back and lie down.

But Lei Jin didn’t take it seriously at all. At most, it was just a small cold. How could he be so delicate and expensive?

When they got home, Roger and the others had already returned, An Luo was doing laundry, there were already quite a few on the clothesline in the yard, and Anson was chopping something with a knife in the kitchen.

“Where is this going?” Roger held a wooden stick in his hand and was slapping the blankets hanging on the wall just now. When he saw Lei Jin and Xia entering the door, he stopped and asked.

When Xia replied that she had gone to the top of the temple, Roger looked at Lei Jin with a slight change in his eyes, but in the end he didn’t say that he would continue on this issue.

“Didn’t you say you wanted to eat meatballs a few days ago? Anson is mincing meat, and he can eat it tonight. What else do you want to eat?”

Lei Jin also feels that his taste is a bit strange recently. He wants to eat this and that. It’s like he’s never eaten anything in eight lifetimes. He’s always hungry. I was so greedy that I mentioned that sentence, but Roger kept it in mind.

“That’s good, I’ll do it.” These people definitely wouldn’t do it, but fortunately, their cooking skills were good enough, at least they wouldn’t starve to death.

“You go back to the room to sleep first, tell me the method, and I’ll do it.” Xi Ya was still thinking about Lei Jin’s coldness just now.

“You didn’t make it delicious the first time, so let me do it.” Lei Jin had already rolled up his sleeves.

It just so happened that Anson also said that the meat was minced.

Before Lei Jin entered the kitchen, he pulled a few green onions from the small vegetable garden in the yard, and Roger also came in to help.

“It’s already September, and the weather is slowly cooling down. Go out and wear warmer clothes. When Moya comes back, she will definitely bring some good materials. You can make two more thick clothes.” Roger As Lei Jin said, he scooped a tablespoon of flour from the bowl and put it aside for later use.

“Roger, you are becoming more and more like a mother now.” It’s really hard to get used to it. Ever since he knew that Roger is the “mother” of Xi Ya and the others, and Xi Ya and the others have this kind of relationship with him, he felt that It’s extremely awkward. Roger is so “loving mother”, and it is definitely himself who collapses first. In terms of this, what does it matter?

“I don’t mind if you call me Dad like Xia and the others.” Roger said these words without changing his expression.

“Don’t scare me, Roger, I have a bad heart.” Lei Jin widened his eyes and firmly refused. It’s a joke, although he doesn’t know who his father is in his life, he can’t be Roger who looks about the same age as him.

Roger smiled, looked at Lei Jin steadily, and asked, “Do you have to go?”

“It’s natural.” Ignoring the little bit of reluctance in his heart, there’s really nothing to hesitate, Lei Jin peeled off the green onion in his hand and said, “By the way, the picture you gave me last time was lost when I fell into the water. , can you draw another picture for me?”

Roger paused for a while before saying, “As long as you decide to use it, I’ll give it to you.”

“Thank you in advance.” Lei Jin gestured with the green onion in his hand.

Lei Jin removed the leaves, leaving only the scallion white, chopped it, and added salt, eggs, and flour to the meat, mixed it well, and put it into a clean stoneware pot.

“Enjoy the taste first and make it at night.”

“By the way, what about the rice, peanuts and corn I brought back last time?” Lei Jin saw that there was nothing in the kitchen.

“It’s all in the cellar. Do you want to eat? I’ll go get some.”

“Farewell, I’m just asking. There’s not much left, and I have to keep some seeds for next year. I can save a little bit.” Although he really wanted to eat them all, he had to look far away. The realm of thought has been raised again.

“Aren’t you going to leave?” The implication is that you still care about what to do here.

“Yeah, but on this day, you have to live well.” You have to persevere every day, so those sad days are just like that.

Roger thought thoughtfully and said, “It’s good that you don’t regret it.”

“Roger, you see that I can’t do anything here.” Lei Jin said very seriously, which was one of the reasons why he had to leave. In this world, he was almost useless, and he continued: “Sometimes, I think God chose the wrong person. Maybe he should airdrop someone who can do everything, who can tinker with everything, show off his skills, make some achievements, and maybe even change the world. As for me , forget it.” It was like this for the first twenty-eight years, and it is impossible for him to become a genius by leaps and bounds later.

Roger snorted lightly and said, “I never believed that the course of history could be changed because of one person. Do you think that everyone here is a fool without a brain of your own?”

Lei Jin wanted to say something, but the sudden pain in his stomach made him groan.

Roger hurriedly helped him sit down and asked, “What’s the matter? You are.”

“Maybe I ate something bad. Just now my stomach hurt so badly, it was like being kicked.” I shouldn’t have eaten anything special today.

Roger’s expression changed slightly. The small charcoal stove in the kitchen has been warmed with hot water every day recently. There are two pregnant women in the family, so he has to be prepared all the time. He poured a cup for Lei Jin and said, “Drink some hot water first. .”

Lei Jin drank a cup of hot water, then sat in the yard and felt much better.

Roger rubbed his waist and asked, “Has it hurt like this before?”

“That’s not true.” Lei Jin held the bamboo cup, and the water was full of the fragrance of bamboo.

Roger was very hesitant. It was almost four months. This should be the child’s first fetal movement. He was greeting his father, but Lei Jin didn’t know anything. Should he tell him? After all, it was Lei Jin. The child, he has the right to decide whether to have or not to have.

It’s getting dark this season, just after five o’clock, the sky started to get dark. Mingya came back from the temple and slept next to Lei Jin for a while, until Lei Jin said he wanted to make meatballs for him. Release your hand.

Lei Jin dug out the marinated mashed meat from the jar and saved it to the size of a fist. Thinking of the large number of people in the family and the great appetite, he made a total of about 20. He cooked it in the pot first, and then put it into a small pottery. In the pot, add green onions, salt and a little honey, put a lid on it, and smother it. It would be nice if there was a little more soy sauce.

Taking advantage of this time, Lei Jin put some lard in a large pot, heated it, added chopped shallots, sauteed until fragrant, poured in the washed wild vegetables, and stirred until the wild vegetables were slightly translucent, nothing. Seasoning, just add a little salt before serving.

Before the fire at the bottom of the pot was extinguished, Lei Jin found flour in the kitchen, added some chopped green onion and salt, made peace, and made a pot of gnocchi soup.

Naturally, these meals were not enough, and Xi Ya helped to cook the pot meat again.

Now that the weather is cold, everyone is eating in the house. The lion head is served with a small pottery pot. When the lid is opened, the fragrant aroma wafts out with the white heat. Xiya is busy dividing everyone’s bowls One, when you bite into it, the meat is very soft, with a mellow soup, and the mouth is fragrant. Even Berg, who has no interest in meat, even said that it was delicious, and the last bit of soup base went into Mingya’s belly.

At night, Lei Jin showed signs of a fever, but Xia didn’t dare to give him any medicine at this time, hoping to endure it. Neither of them slept well. Lei Jin was uncomfortable, and Xia was worried, so she was so dazed. Probably just after arriving in the middle of the night, she heard a scream from Berg’s room…
