MTL - I Have a System of Orcs-~ chapter 57
Now there are only corn and sweet potatoes left in the farmland without harvesting. After the upsurge of pickling pickles and making clothes has passed, the females are happy to start making meat jerky again.
Recently, Xiao Ke is also free, and has not issued any tasks for Wei Changcheng. The official statement is that Wei Changcheng has been feeding a lot of food recently, and it takes time to digest and digest. Wei Changcheng does not know whether Xiao Ke's statement is right, but In terms of feeding food, Wei Changcheng really did not treat it badly. If Wei Changcheng knew of the existence of Xiao Ke all the time, it would be impossible for Wei Changcheng to feed him so much food. The key is that Daniel also knew about it. Daniel is very grateful to Xiao Ke who can give a lot of things that are beneficial to the tribe. The result of his gratitude is that Daniel always secretly catches a lot of prey and allocates some of the harvested crops to Xiao Ke. Wei Changcheng has refused many times. It's a pity that Xiao Ke and Daniel were willing to fight and suffer, and Wei Changcheng couldn't stop it, so it became what it is now.
So time passed while Wei Changcheng kept yelling that Daniel was not allowed to feed too much food to the rice bucket.
When the heaviest rains in the rainy month passed and there was only sparse light rain left, Wei Changcheng got the news from Daniel that he was going to Yuji.
Rain Collection, as the annual gathering of the Beastman Continent, is very attractive to both large and small tribes. Bartering things, exchanging things you don’t need for things you urgently need in Xueyue, you have to It is said that the existence of Yuji has his necessity. Of course, even so, exchanging for food in the rain collection is still a rare thing. After all, there is no need to say how important food is in Xueyue.
Generally speaking, when a small tribe goes to Yuji, there are usually around 20 or 30 orcs. Don't underestimate these 20 or 30 people. The 20 or 30 people here are all males in the tribe, and there are only a few orcs in a small tribe. Hundreds of people, excluding females, old orcs, and males who were unable to hunt due to accidents, a male team of twenty or thirty people is already very large. After all, the time is now behind Yuyue, and the entire tribe is Busy with storing Xueyue's food, and being able to allocate these males to participate in Yuji, I have to say that Yuji still holds a very important position in the hearts of the orcs.
In comparison, the big tribes have a great advantage in this point, especially the current eastern tribes, they no longer have to worry about Xueyue's food problem, and even the cold problem has been solved. For them, the collection is more like going on a trip—of course, the word travel does not exist now. Therefore, when Jeffrey announced that he would select males to go to the rain collection, most of the males were eager to try.
Only males can go to Yuji. After all, there is still a considerable distance from the tribe to the place where Yuji regularly opens, and this road is full of forests. It doesn't mean there is no danger. As one of the four major tribes, the eastern tribe sends out about a hundred people every year. The four big tribes and countless other small tribes, if you do a rough calculation, you will know how many people participated in this rain gathering. .
The rain collection is rotated back and forth by the four major tribes. Every year, the host will arrive about half a month before the other tribes to make various preparations before the rain collection. Arrive the day before the set officially starts.
Wei Changcheng must go, and Daniel will naturally go. Because of Daniel and Wei Changcheng, Jeffrey decided not to go. Daniel will lead the way to Yuji, and Jeffrey will stay in the tribe to take charge Daily hunting quests.
The females would not go, and Boris couldn't go because of his disability, so in the end, only Roy and Elton, who were familiar with Wei Changcheng, also went, and there were nearly a hundred males left. Chang Cheng said he didn't know any of them.
It doesn't matter if he doesn't know him, as long as he knows Daniel is enough.
Once the candidate is determined, the rest is to bring something.
Wei Changcheng thought that the tribe would "hide" the newly discovered food, herbs, and invented stone axes and other tools for some reason, and would not tell other tribes, but Wei Changcheng was very surprised by Jeffrey's order. Ashamed, Jeffrey made it very clear that all the changes in the tribe will be displayed in front of the tribes in Yuji, and as long as someone wants to learn, he must teach them unconditionally. This made Wei Changcheng deeply inferior. He lamented that he judged the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain, so human beings are better at such devious things, and the appearance of this rain collection, Wei Changcheng thought maybe not It's just for exchanging things, and it's more about bringing each tribe's new discoveries and inventions to the entire Orc Continent, so that the entire Orc Continent can develop together.
In the final analysis, no matter how violent the orcs are, no matter how vigilant they are against other tribes other than their own, they still need everyone to work together for a better life.
Wei Changcheng thought he had seen through the essence of the orcs, but soon after, he proved that he was a big fool!
After being ordered by Jeffrey, the whole tribe started to get busy again. Busy packing the potatoes and other things already in the tribe, busy weaving baskets to make stone axes and other things, Wei Changcheng squatted in front of the male cave, his heart dripping with blood, watching the females divide some of the food into the baskets, etc. Take it away.
Wei Changcheng has a characteristic - food protection. He knows that the food stored this year is enough to survive the snowy moon, and he also knows that it's okay to help others, but he just feels distressed, and there's nothing he can do about it! In the end, Wei Changcheng stopped guarding, and if he kept guarding, he felt even more distressed, and finally died of distress, so Wei Changcheng took Alan to the farmland.
"It may take nearly half a month to go to Yuji this time." Wei Changcheng checked the growth of the corn and said to Alan who was by his side, "Maybe during the time I went to Yuji In time, the corn and sweet potatoes will mature, and I will not be in the tribe by then, so you have to lead everyone to harvest the corn and sweet potatoes."
Allen nodded solemnly: "Don't worry, leave it to me."
Wei Changcheng said: "Come on, let me tell you how corn and sweet potatoes are considered ripe."
So Wei Changcheng said, Allen listened, and finally Wei Changcheng said: "Don't throw away the corn stalks, um, put them away, and put them in the cave. When the snowy moon comes, the males who stay in the cave can be used to give birth. fire."
During the snowy moon every year, in addition to looking for food and resisting the possible swarms and wandering animals, the males also look for trees to make fire. It is not easy to find dry firewood in the snowy moon. The corn stalks are kept until the snow It would be nice to light a fire during the month.
Wei Changcheng said that Alan followed behind and nodded, indicating that he remembered, but Wei Changcheng usually remembered what to say, and gradually Alan became a little confused. There were too many things, and Alan couldn't remember them all. . Seeing Alan's distressed face, Wei Changcheng stopped talking, and also, not everyone is born with a photographic memory, let alone there is no text here.
Wei Changcheng made up his mind. When Xueyue is free, he will teach the orcs in the tribe how to read and write. It would be best to record anything in writing. When Wei Changcheng thought of the unique Chinese characters that belonged to China, he would learn to read and write. Taking root in this alien continent of beastmen, I couldn't help laughing.
Wei Changcheng thought for a while, and said to Allen: "Well, I will ask Uncle Boris to tell Uncle Boris again, and you can find a few friends, and a friend will tell you a few things, and then let them Mind you, that's it."
Allen slapped his head: "Yes, why didn't I think of it, then I'll go right away."
Allen left in a hurry, and Wei Changcheng didn't stay where he was, but went to Boris to explain the matter.
When it was the day of departure, I reluctantly prepared the things to be taken away. For the purpose of taking these things, the males did not turn into animal forms, but set out in human form with baskets on their backs, oh , as for the male Wei Changcheng, he doesn’t carry any weight. After all, his figure still looks as thin as before. It has nothing to do with whether he can transform into a beast shape. Things are worth two people, so we know why Wei Changcheng didn't memorize anything.
Since being able to transform into a beast shape, what Wei Changcheng likes most is to transform into a beast shape to bask in the sun, of course not in Yanyue, wouldn't he freeze to death in such a black-haired Yanyue basking in the sun! When he was on his way, Wei Changcheng discovered another benefit of becoming a beast, that is, he really saved a lot of energy when he was traveling in the shape of a beast. Is it because four legs save more energy than two legs?
Therefore, in the middle of a group of humans, there is often a black cat interspersed in the middle, sometimes running in front of the crowd, sometimes following behind and swaying slowly, sometimes hanging on a person to be dragged by that person—this person Needless to say who it is.
It was already noon when we set off, and it is not suitable to drive at night. The group of people hurried slowly, and finally arrived at the place where they camped every year during the rainy season before dark. The rest place is at the foot of a low mountain. There are not many trees on the mountain. Excellent, Wei Changcheng thought about it, and thought it might be because it is better to keep watch at night. After all, wasteland is easier to find the target of sneak attack than forest.
Settled down under the low mountain, the sky was much darker than before, some people were left to guard things, and the rest went to grab today's dinner, Daniel hesitated for a while, and stayed with Wei Changcheng, just in case What really happened, I didn't even have time to cry.
Only then did Wei Changcheng turn into a human form again, he walked two steps and then stretched twice: "Oh, I'm so tired after driving all day."
Daniel followed behind Wei Changcheng step by step, reached out and pressed Wei Changcheng's waist, and said in a low voice, "How is it? Does it hurt? Do you want me to press it for you?"
Wei Changcheng looked around subconsciously, and found that someone was staring at him, so he quickly pushed Daniel away, turned around and gave Daniel a look: "No, my waist doesn't hurt that much yet!"
Daniel coaxed Wei Changcheng helplessly: "Okay, I understand."
Wei Changcheng wanted to say something, but suddenly frowned, listened carefully, then looked at the place where the sound came from, and hesitated: "Daniel, did you hear any sound? Could it be that you were hunting?" The males are back?" But it can't be so fast, Wei Changcheng muttered in his heart, it hasn't been long since he left.
The remaining males stood up at this moment, and slowly gathered behind Daniel and Wei Changcheng. They all held their breath and listened to the sound of footsteps from far and near. Wei Changcheng was a little nervous, so he couldn't help but backed away. Being pulled behind him by Daniel, Wei Changcheng hid behind Daniel, only showing his head to look at the place where the sound came from.
Soon, the visitor showed his true colors. There were thirty or forty male orcs he didn't know. Wei Changcheng was half relieved. It was better to have orcs than to be beasts.
The thirty or forty male orcs who came there were stunned for a moment when they saw Daniel and the others, and then they immediately reacted. The leader was a strong, dark-skinned young male, who stepped forward and said: "We are from the Ram tribe. The orcs are going to the rain collection now."
As soon as this person finished speaking, Daniel also let go of his heart. Daniel said: "We are from the eastern tribe, and we are also going to Yuji."
The leading young male smiled and said: "That's great. If you don't mind, can I go on the road with you tomorrow? You know, our small tribe has a small number of people and is always prone to danger."
Daniel pondered for a moment, agreed to the young male's request, and said: "The people of our tribe have already gone hunting, and you haven't eaten dinner yet, if you don't worry, you can put the things you brought here. We Help you guard, you go hunting."
"That would be great." The young male has completely let go of his heart, and first led the males of his own tribe to put down their belongings at a distance of 50 meters from the eastern tribe, and then said something to Daniel. They're all out hunting.
Looking at Wei Changcheng's puzzled eyes, Daniel explained to Wei Changcheng: "The road from the tribe to Yuji is the same every year, and the tribes living in the east go here every year, and the place where they stay They are all fixed, which greatly reduces the risk. It is also good for us to go on the road with them, after all, the more people, the safer."
Wei Changcheng was still a little worried, and said in a low voice: "Is it possible? Although there are not as many of them as us, if they really want to do something, they are hard to guard against."
Daniel patted Wei Changcheng's face comfortingly: "Don't worry, trust me, nothing will happen."
Wei Changcheng glanced at Daniel, hesitated for a moment, but still didn't say anything.
