MTL - I Have a System of Orcs-~ Chapter 16
After listening to his father's words last night, Daniel figured it out. What his father said was right. He couldn't do things that he would regret in the future. He didn't think there would be someone who would make his heart move more than Wei Changcheng.
So today, after returning from hunting, Daniel came directly to Wei Changcheng, but Wei Changcheng was not in the cave, and he didn't know where Wei Changcheng had gone, so he had to wait outside the cave. Seeing that it was getting dark, if Wei Changcheng didn't come back, he would mobilize the males to look for it. Fortunately, Wei Changcheng finally came back.
When Wei Changcheng saw Daniel waiting outside his cave, he was a little dazed at first, but soon came back to his senses, and went forward: "Daniel? Why are you here?"
"Ah, that, let me take a look at you." Daniel was embarrassed and regretted in his heart. He felt the change between him and Xiao Cheng. Xiao Cheng must have alienated himself. In this strange place, in his last When I was isolated and helpless, I never came to him at all. At that time, I was obviously his only support, but I avoided him because of irrelevant things.
Daniel handed the prey he had been carrying to Wei Changcheng: "Xiao Cheng, this is the prey I shot for you specially, here it is."
Wei Changcheng looked at the prey in Daniel's hands and smiled: "No need, the food distributed by the clan is enough for me every day, you should take this prey back."
Daniel was in a hurry, and took a few steps in Wei Changcheng's direction: "Take it, I caught it for you specially, I have enough at home."
Wei Changcheng wanted to decline, but was interrupted by a voice.
Boris leaned against the entrance of the cave and shouted at Wei Changcheng: "Little Wei, just take it. If you can't eat, you can give it to me. I can't get enough for every meal."
Wei Changcheng paused, and finally took the prey from Daniel's hand: "I haven't eaten tonight, do you want to stay and eat?"
In fact, Wei Changcheng's words are polite words, just like the Chinese, it's just a small talk, people with discernment will naturally refuse to leave, but Wei Changcheng forgot that orcs don't understand what is called a resignation. Daniel was naturally very happy to "invite" himself to eat, and opened the corner of his mouth on the spot: "Okay, I'll go home and get the meat first!"
Looking at Daniel who disappeared in a flash, Wei Changcheng: "..."
Boris laughed twice: "Xiaowei, I just brought your food back for you. Shall we still have that broth tonight? I haven't had enough yet."
"Ah, okay." Wei Changcheng recovered from his trance, and replied, passing the prey in his hand to Boris, "I'll go back to the cave for something, and I'll go to your place to eat later."
Boris agreed, carried the prey and went back to deal with it. By the way, he smiled and narrowed his eyes. It seems that there is more broth to drink today.
When Wei Changcheng took out the fruit that he secretly took out from the space from the cave, he happened to meet Daniel who was rushing back. Daniel had no objection to having dinner at Boris's house, but seeing the strange things Boris brought over excitedly, Daniel was puzzled: "What is this?"
"Stone pot, stone bowl and stone spoon." Wei Changcheng pointed at them one by one calmly, "If you want one, find a stone of similar size first."
Although Daniel was very curious, he still followed Wei Changcheng's words, so a tiger was digging something with its paws in Boris' hole the next day.
Wei Changcheng didn't tell Daniel what these things were used for, and he cooked and ate directly. After a meal, Daniel also understood the purpose of these things, and his face was excited.
"Xiaocheng, this, this is what you came up with?"
Wei Changcheng nodded without shame, um, what he said is not bad, in this world, he "thought" out all kinds of stone bowls, stone pots, and stone spoons!
Daniel's eyes are getting brighter and brighter, just like Boris at the beginning, Daniel also knows what these things mean. The power of males is great, but no matter how powerful they are, it doesn't mean that they don't need some tools, especially It's for weak females, oh, of course, Daniel and the others faintly know their lack, but they don't know how to express it.
In fact, although the orcs on this orc continent already have tribes, their actual living standards are not very high due to their strong individual abilities. In addition, the history of the existence of orcs is not very long, and there is no such thing as a single tribe. millennium. The history recorded in China's historical materials is only five thousand years, but in fact, the history of human beings is not only five thousand years. Humans also existed ten thousand years ago. Of course, people at that time were not people like Wei Changcheng now. However, what is certain is that the history of human beings becoming human is very long, so for a thousand years for orcs, It's nothing.
The average age of orcs is about 200 years old, they enter adulthood at 30 years old, and enter old age after 180 years old. During the 150 years in between, orcs are in their prime. The history of the orc continent is only less than a thousand years, that is It is said that the orcs have only five generations at most. In these few generations, everything needs to be thought and done by oneself, and there is really not much that can be done. The arrival of Wei Changcheng seems to be to accelerate the development of the Beastman Continent, which is the development of all aspects of the Beastman Continent, not just one aspect.
"Xiao Cheng, this me, can I take it back?" Daniel asked stutteringly, with anticipation and worry on his face.
Wei Changcheng, who was fighting with Boris for the meat in the broth, didn't even look at Daniel, and replied casually, "Since you made it, of course it's yours, and you can do whatever you want with it."
"Really, really?" Daniel exclaimed excitedly.
Both Wei Changcheng and Boris put down the spoons in their hands, and they both nodded at Daniel: "Really!"
Daniel paused for a moment, and his eyes slowly turned to the stone pot. Well, it's very good. Wei Changcheng and Boris are still very good to Daniel. At least there is still half a pot of soup left in the broth. Daniel, who didn't eat because he was so excited at first, was indignant, and he didn't even eat a bite!
Wei Changcheng rubbed his stomach: "There is still meat, this stone pot is still too small, and the meat can't be boiled. If you want to eat, you can make it yourself."
Wei Changcheng casually took out one from the fruit he had just brought and handed it to Boris who was aside, and took a bite of one himself.
"This is?" Boris held the fruit that Wei Changcheng gave him in his hand, and asked suspiciously. He had never eaten such a thing before. What is this?
"Watermelon." Wei Changcheng told Boris very straightforwardly.
"…what is that?"
Wei Changcheng took two more mouthfuls of the strawberry in his hand. Well, the strawberry is finished: "I found something that can be eaten today."
Boris was surprised, and Daniel was, oh, Daniel went out to wash the pot and fill it with water: "How do you know this is edible?"
Wei Changcheng rolled his eyes: "Don't worry, don't worry, you can eat it, if you don't believe me, I'll show you!" After finishing speaking, he picked up another watermelon beside him, broke it open, and took a bite of the flesh outside, "It's delicious of."
Boris hesitated for a while, and finally chose to eat it. After eating like this, Boris couldn't stop eating until all the watermelons were wiped out.
"This fruit called watermelon is so delicious." Boris licked his lips. "I, a male, love it so much, let alone those females."
"Well, if Yanyue watermelon is still available, it will be even more delicious than now."
Daniel just came back with water and smelled the smell of watermelon in the cave: "What's the smell?"
"Watermelon." Wei Changcheng handed the half of the watermelon that he hadn't moved to Daniel, thought for a while, and then handed over a strawberry, "This is a strawberry, you can take it back."
Daniel blinked, put down the stone pot he had just brought back, picked up the strawberry in one hand and the watermelon in the other, looked left and right, "Can I really take it back?"
"Of course, I still remember the specific locations of these two foods." Wei Changcheng added, "But I think females prefer this kind of food."
"That's the best thing." Daniel said, "The female body is inherently delicate. Males can eat anything, but females can't, so the females still eat very little. The location of strawberries and watermelons is far from here. Is it far?"
"It's not too far, but it's going out of the eastern tribe."
When Wei Changcheng said this, Daniel became a little worried. The range of activities of females is very small, and they usually move in tribes. If they want to go out to pick wild fruits, they must be escorted by males all the way to ensure the safety of females. The situation is only two or three times a month at most. After all, it is still very stressful to feed the orcs of the entire eastern tribe with the food they hunt every day.
The orcs on the Beastman Continent have not been around for a long time, which also makes it more difficult for them to survive. They don't have much experience to provide them. They can only walk slowly and tentatively on a cautious basis. . After tens of thousands of years, maybe males can safely let females move around the tribe, because the orc continent at that time was not as dangerous as it is today, but this situation will definitely not happen now.
Seeing Daniel's worried and hesitant expression, Wei Changcheng understood Daniel's worries after a second thought. He hesitated for a while, and wanted to expand the scope of the eastern tribe with Daniel, and directly include a part of the forest outside into the eastern tribe, but in the end Still didn't say it out, although Wei Changcheng himself wanted to change the current situation of the eastern tribes, but after all, he was a newcomer, and it would take a while.
Both Wei Changcheng and Daniel were immersed in their own thoughts, but Boris, who was ignored at the side, suddenly said, "Xiaowei, did you go out to the clan by yourself today?"
Wei Changcheng subconsciously said "En".
Daniel snapped back to his senses, realizing what Boris' question and Wei Changcheng's answer meant just now, Daniel broke out in a cold sweat: "Xiaocheng, how can you go out by yourself?"
Wei Changcheng was taken aback by Daniel's sudden abnormality, with a blank face: "What's wrong?"
"Aren't you unable to transform?" Daniel said anxiously, "What if you encounter danger outside?"
"I'm fine, I just wandered around the periphery of the tribe, and I didn't go far at all."
"That's not okay!" Daniel resolutely refused, "Although we will clean up the wild beasts outside the tribe regularly, what if some wild beast suddenly breaks in one day!" Then he resolutely softened his tone, "Xiao Cheng, if you want to go out , when it's my turn to rest, can I go out with you? Don't go out by yourself again. "
Wei Changcheng frowned and looked at Daniel. He felt that Daniel was weird, but he couldn't tell where it was. Finally, he was really anxious when he saw Daniel. He thought about going out and sneaking out by himself in the future, so he apparently agreed to Daniel himself. No longer go out alone.
