Crossing to Live in the Wilderness Plains

Chen Qi hung the dyed red cloth back in his room to dry. In order to prevent the dyeing liquid from soiling the underground slate, he also laid a layer of withered pupa leaves underneath. These pupa leaves were still before winter came. The ones that have been picked have not been damaged after being placed for so long, but they have lost moisture and become extremely shriveled.

Today, Chen Qi was very tired after moving the snow all day. After drying the cloth, he took a quick shower and climbed back to the heated kang. The heated kang was warm. As soon as Chen Qi got into the bed, he let out a comfortable sigh. "I really want to hibernate under the quilt all the time in winter." Chen Qi said with emotion.

A Ze helped him tuck the quilt, and smiled: "You can stay in the quilt all the time, and I can take care of you."

Chen Qi looked at him and smiled. He stretched his cold hand into A Ze's bed and touched the other's waist. A Ze's body quickly stiffened. He felt his face was hot and seemed to be burning. .

Chen Qi finally managed to find the other party's broad palm, with rough calluses on it, a little distressed, "Aze, I really want to be with you."

Feeling the movement of Chen Qi rubbing his fingers lightly, Aze replied softly, "Yeah."

Aze returned to the heated kang earlier than Chen Qi. At this time, his hand was much warmer than his. Chen Qi inserted his fingers into the other's fingers and clasped them tightly. The warmth made him snort. , and soon fell asleep.

Listening to Chen Qi's steady breathing, the temperature on Aze's face slowly dropped. He turned his head and stared at the sleeping face of the other party. He leaned over and gently touched the corner of Chen Qi's lips, and smiled softly. "Good night."

The next morning, A Zhang and A Ze went to the forest to chop trees. The heavy snow did not affect the speed of the females, and they soon disappeared into the vast snow field.

The wall built on the outside yesterday has not completely frozen, and Chen Qi does not plan to continue to increase it now. The yard is very large. Chen Qi and a few people discussed it and decided to expand the wall in the yard by about one meter in width.

After Ajing fed the little wolf cub, he took it back to its den and told him not to walk around. The little wolf cub wagged his tail and whined at Ajing twice in the den, and he didn't know if there was any I do not understand.

Don't look at Ah Jing's young age, his strength is much stronger than Chen Qi's. The wooden barrel is too big and his hands are too short to hold, so he held a pottery plate to help melt the snow. Yesterday, Ah Ze moved the house to the fence to clean up Aside from being trampled on a bit muddy, Ah Jing walked very smoothly while holding a pottery plate filled with water. If it weren't for the fear of water spilling out, he would still be able to run directly.

Seeing that A Jing insisted on helping, Chen Qi had no choice but to agree, and told him to stop and rest when he was tired.

A-Zhang and the two came back at night. He and A-Ze each carried more than a dozen tall trees with a length of more than seven or eight meters. From a distance, they felt like two large bundles of firewood were moving fast, and it was completely invisible to carry them. silhouette.

"How's it going? Is there anything unusual in the forest?" Chen Qi filled them both with a bowl of **** syrup. The **** soup helped to dispel the cold. The beasts couldn't stand the taste of eating **** directly, so Chen Qi boiled **** every time. Soup should be added with a little sugar. The water milk fruit has been made into sugar by Chen Qi, and now there is no shortage of sugar.

"Nothing unusual." A Zhang shook his head, took the **** syrup and took a big sip. The warm liquid poured in from his throat, instantly warming his cold body.

"That shouldn't be because something went wrong in the forest that caused the locust dragons to run to the plain collectively." Chen Qi rubbed his chin and pondered for a while and replied.

"If you're worried, I can follow the locust dragon swarm to see where their destination is." Aze put down the empty pottery bowl.

"No." Chen Qi shook his head, "The locust dragons didn't take the initiative to attack us. It would be bad to follow them rashly in case they were discovered, and we didn't know how far they would go."

Since they couldn't find the reason why the locust dragon suddenly appeared on the plain, the few people were no longer entangled. The real threat in winter was the hyena dragon, and it would be easier to build a defensive wall as soon as possible.

A few people cut the newly chopped firewood into pickets. After finishing it, it was already dark, and they planned to continue to work on the outer wall tomorrow.

In the evening, Chen Qi first went to check the two pieces of cloth dyed yesterday. The color was a little light after drying for a day. Chen Qi melted the fruit dye in the fire and dyed it again.

After drying the two red cloths again, Chen Qi opened a black dyed fruit with another pottery plate. The black dyed fruit does not need to be adjusted in color. After Chen Qi opened it, he put the prepared cloth into the pottery plate. This time the cloth was not as big as the red one, but it was dyed four times.

"Chen Qi, why are you dyeing so much cloth?"

"Make clothes." Chen Qi also took the dyed cloth back to the room to dry. Aze helped to make several wooden racks before, but now they are all covered with wet dyed cloth. Chen Qi looked at it with satisfaction. Focusing on his own achievements, he washed himself up under A Ze's doubtful eyes, then got back into the warm bed on the heated kang, and fell asleep when he found A Ze's warm hand to hold it as usual.

Silent all night.

The next day, I still went outside the fence and buried the pickets in the fence to raise the fence. The weather was bad today, and A-Zhang and A-ZE did not go to the forest anymore. Chen Qi asked A-Zhang to go to the small bamboo forest not far away to cut a few When the bamboo comes back, the bamboo grows very thick, and it can play a defensive role when it is broken and sharpened.

It snowed again when the expanded walls were all level, but this time it was no longer a blizzard. Chen Qi found that the temperature would drop several degrees as long as it snowed. Now the wall is almost two meters high, and the rest just needs to wait for it to freeze slowly, and then slowly increase the height.

When the weather was bad without the need to build a fence, the orcs began to gather at Chen Qi's house to continue their studies. Chen Qi had opened two large pottery plates for dyeing cloth, and he placed the black one on the floor. On the desk, he generously took out a large bag of gum leaves, and said to several people, "You guys should try to write a diary from today."

"Journal?"

"Yes." Chen Qi patted the fruit-dyeing liquid and most of the pottery plate and said to several people: "It is to record the things that happen to you every day in writing. There is a large plate of fruit-dyeing liquid here, enough for you to write."

"Why did you prescribe so much fruit dye?" Carlo asked.

Chen Qi smiled and patted Carlo on the shoulder, "I'll give you this plate of fruit dyeing liquid, you can show it to me after you have written the diary. If I find a typo, I will write it down. After copying it a hundred times, there are still two big bags of gum leaves, and if the fruit dye is not enough, there is still a red tray."

Carlo looked at Chen Qi in disbelief, "Are you planning to let us finish writing these two large plates of fruit dyeing solution?" The fruit dyeing solution they had used for more than a week before was not half a pottery plate.

"Diligence can make up for clumsiness." Chen Qi shook his head at Carlo, "You see that your brother has already learned the thousand-character script, and you are still learning the story of the mermaid. You can catch up with your brother after you use up these two plates of fruit dyeing liquid. progress."

Carlo choked, the one who said it was a thousand-character script actually didn't have thirty words, and he could learn it in a day at the speed of Azer. And from Chen Qi's appearance, it was clear that he just wanted them to consume the two large pottery plates of fruit dyeing liquid, so why did they have to open so many fruit dyeing liquids?

After Chen Qi explained to a few people, he ran to the side and continued to fiddle with things. A Ze watched Chen Qi scratch a small bone with a sword-horn knife for a while, and then picked up a pen to draw something on the gum leaf. Occasionally, he would frown as if thinking of some problem, and sometimes he would He would suddenly smile silently with a grin on his lips. A Ze asked Chen Qi what he was busy with recently, but Chen Qi smiled and didn't answer every time. This feeling like he was hiding something made A Ze a little uneasy.

This kind of day has passed for more than half a month. After a few snows, the snow in the yard was cleaned up and the fence was much higher. Now it is more than three meters high. Chen Qi made a lot of wooden ladders and placed them along the inside of the fence. A circle, so that no matter where you want to climb the wall, you don't need to move the ladder around.

The locust dragon swarm came back a month later, and the mighty force almost knocked down all the trees in the way, leaving an unusually obvious road. They look a lot more excited than a month ago. Some underage baby locust dragons occasionally stay away from the team and the mother locust dragons no longer hold it. At most, they will only get out of the attack range of the locust dragon swarm. With a loud cry, the little locust dragons will obediently return to the team when they hear the call.

The route taken by the locust dragons on the return trip this time was a little different from when they went, and it was far away from Chen Qi's house. Even if there were little locust dragons who left the team to play, they would be called by the mother locust dragon if they couldn't get here. Go back, and after the locust dragon swarm has completely passed, A Zhang followed them secretly, and did not come back until he saw that the locust dragon swarm had all returned to the forest.

Although the incident of the locust dragon swarm has shocked the beasts a lot, fortunately, it was only a near miss. Even if the locust dragon came to attack, the solid ice wall more than three meters thick was enough to stop the locust dragon's footsteps. They had enough time to withdraw.

A Ze found that Chen Qi began to frequent Ali's house. After the dyed black cloths were dry, they were given directly to Ali. When the weather was good, A Ze and A Zhang would go into the forest to cut wood. You can see Chen Qi fiddling with all kinds of things at home, and will cook all kinds of delicious food for him, but now when he comes home, he will find that the fire at home has long been cold, and Chen Qi panicked until A Ze found A Li's house. In a panic, he packed his things and went back with himself.

Looking at Chen Qi and A Li who stick together every day, A Ze's heart became more and more sour. He wanted to ask Uncle A Li what he and Chen Qi were doing several times, but he was afraid that the answer he would get would be unacceptable. The words turned around a few times and swallowed silently.

A Ze's time to go out is getting shorter and shorter, and he is coming back sooner and earlier. A Zhang is a little helpless when he sees him rushing home every day.

Seeing that Aze doesn't want to go out anymore, Chen Qi only said that the other party is because the weather is getting colder and colder. Chen Qi now needs to wear three or four heavy animal skins when going out, and wraps himself like a zongzi every day. Stay by the fire all the time.

A Ze didn't go out to Chen Qi, so he didn't go to see Ali again. Seeing Chen Qi wandering around at home, the uneasiness in his heart finally subsided.
