Wolf King

The remnant moon hidden in the clouds reflected the land coldly, and under the dim moonlight, the reckless grassland seemed like a sleeping ancient beast. People walking on the earth do not feel its pulsation, and occasionally hear a slight breath, and regard it as an untimely monsoon.

The snow wolves dragged the trawls made of vine grass through the weeds and weeds. The trawl with a big belly and a long towline on one side was filled with acorns. The weight of each trawl was several. Over a hundred kilograms, such a heavy burden even the Snow Werewolf will feel tired, and the heavy breathing sound mixed with the white mist from the exit will harass this lonely and beautiful night.

"Huh... It's more tiring than dragging a wild boar. You have to be careful not to walk too fast to pull the acorn out." The horns dragged their tongues and gasped. "Ayun, you don't have any good way to get us lucky. Finish these acorns?"

"Can I have a good way, or else, to pull the horned horn cattle to carry it?" Xiao Yun, who only dragged half of the clan's weight, was almost exhausted. "Even if there is not so many leather bags to use the ox pack, it still has to be dragged. , Uh, it seems that pulling the trawls with cattle is also acceptable."

"The next trip will use a cow tow." The patriarch said, "We will lead the cow slowly."

I thought that transporting acorns was almost the same as transporting wild boars. It really wasn’t the same thing when I dragged them on. First, there is a probability that the acorns will fall during walking in the trawl, and it can’t be dragged with brute force; In the gap, the acorns piled in the oak forest must be more than a hundred tons... Only after pulling back and forth two times, the patriarch began to feel despair.

The third trip to drag the acorns back to the tribe, it was dawn... The people who had been walking all night were too tired to get up. At first glance, Xiao Yun couldn't do this. He braced the cubs who called the housekeeper, cooked a few large pots of broth for the tribe, ate and slept, and then explained the wool. Kang Shang.

After sleeping for a long time, the whole family continued to drag and drop the acorns. The trawl nets produced by the cubs were put on the back of the cattle, driving dozens of the strongest male cattle to the jungle. go.

The strength of the four-legged animal in grip and drag is not comparable to the intelligent creature of the two legs. No matter how powerful the snow wolf is, it is impossible to carry the charge of the wild boar directly; this is the curved angle of 400 kg tonnage A cow can drag at least one ton of acorns at a time, and even more if the rattan net is wearable. This Snow Werewolf is totally incomparable... Relying on the capacity of the cow, it has been hard for two days and nights. The acorns in the oak forest finally moved back in full, and no longer continued to throw away wild beasts and rodents.

The acorn tow of nearly two hundred tons was dragged back, and storage became a big problem...Fortunately, the temperature has dropped to near zero degrees, and it is not afraid of damage. Xiao Yun let the tribe dig a few big pits and bury it. Even if it's done.

The whole family mobilized acorns to exhaust everyone, and even the horns had no power to shout to eat fried fish... The big guy fell asleep for a whole day to nourish the spirits, and then came alive, and went straight to the jungle to pick the mushrooms Cut the oak tree-when it snows, the mushrooms Flammulina velutipes will not be picked in the wild.

Whether it is deformed or stunted, the mushrooms Flammulina velutipes can be seen after the eyes are picked... Snow finally fell.

"Oh...yawn (~O~)...hiss~~"

A Shan lifted the hide curtain and yawned halfway, and filled the cold wind with a sip of snowflakes. He quickly put the curtain down, hugged the wood next to it, pressed the curtain, and turned his head towards Kang Cried, "It's snowing!"

"It was a little rain last night, and I thought it should be snowing." The patriarch occupying the kang head stood up slowly, pulling the animal skin to cover his legs. "Fortunately, I picked the mushrooms yesterday. I don't need to go today. Walking in the snow is so uncomfortable."

"I didn't go hunting far this year, but I felt more tired than in previous years." Hongye sat against the wall, rubbing her arms tiredly. She got up for a while, because she was so tired that she rarely did nothing. Grinding bone arrows.

"This year is more rewarding than in previous years." Ah Shan smiled with pride and looked proudly at his nephew who was still sleeping. "We have a lot of meat, a lot of forage, a lot of acorns, and a house and kang."

"It's a little cold, add some firewood." The patriarch did not say to cooperate with Ah Shan's bragging, waving his hand to urge him.

"Oh." Ashan squatted down and grabbed a few firewood plugs in the stove, then opened the lid and looked at the blunt broth on the stove... Anyway, the use of firepower is also a waste. After the kang began to burn, there was a pot on the stove .

Braised in the pot are wild boar meat soaked in blood and shredded shiitake mushrooms. The scent spreads. The horns that were still snoring sit up like springs: "Meat!"

A Shan & Patriarch & Hong Ye: "..."

"This guy, remember to look for food without opening his eyes..." The patriarch glared and wobbled down on the kang with black face, wandering like a wanderer, and took the horns of pottery bowl of broth when he touched the big stove. It’s not like that, it’s because Ayun spoiled him."

"I didn't want to eat before. The horns can only be caught and grilled. He can eat a lot of grilled fish without salt." Hongye Road said, "Ah, Ashan, you can also help me fill a bowl, Has bean sprouts been added to the soup?"

"No, I'll get some bean sprouts." A Shan walked back to where he was sleeping and picked up the fur coat that served as a quilt.

"Then take some mushrooms by the way and remember to wash away the mud." Hongye said.

"Hmm..." The patriarch wanted to add shiitake mushrooms, and suddenly remembered that Ayun said that shiitake mushrooms are too few to be used as seasonings and cannot be cooked and eaten like enoki mushrooms.

A Shan removed the wood pressing the animal skin curtain, opened the curtain and went out, and he saw... the outside of the house has become a world of ice and snow: the pork mountain piled on the vine grass mat has all frozen, and all the tents that have been eliminated into small warehouses are given The heavy snow was covered tightly, and some of them were not strong enough to crush the snow. Even the grass shed specially used by the tribe to sprout sprouts was a little short. (It is always inconvenient to sprout sprouts on the river bank. After it was convenient to fetch water, it was transferred to the tribe and sent).

"What's the first snow this year is bigger than in previous years?" Ah Shan was a little surprised. Last night he slept until the middle of the night, but the cold was not obvious, he didn't take it seriously... Now it looks like Kang Kang It's really good to sleep. If there is such a big snow in the past, he will definitely wake up.

"...Broken!" A Shan frowned, rushing towards Thrall's tent.

Thrall’s tent is a square-top tent, with two slopes left, and it is relatively solid, but it is not crushed by heavy snow, but... the insulation performance of the wool felt tent is really not the same, the only difference between the inside and outside of the tent is that the wind is not so good Big; Ashan rushed into the tent and saw, Thrall was wrapped in animal skin curled up and lying beside the warm fire, the fire was not extinguished, and the others were not hanging, that is, his mouth was pale and his face was pale and his expression was blurred and trance, His eyes are out of focus.

Ashan quickly carried Thrall up and rushed out of the cold tent and ran back into the warm mud brick house. Without a word, the patriarch who held the Kang head was pulled away, and the frozen Thrall was put on, and then the prince was caught. The extremely warm animal skin wrapped him up.

"...I almost forgot to make leather." The patriarch slapped his head. "Oh yes, he hasn't come to sleep on the fire kang... strange, is there anyone who won't let him come?"

"Uh? Is there any?" Asante surprised, Hongye was also inexplicable.

"No, it's because the leather refuses to come." The wool woke up and rubbed his eyes to sit up. "I have called him several times...yawn, did anyone drink broth just now, it smells so good."

"Hulu..." The horn that slept again swallowed.

"Perhaps, humans can't sleep on fire?" Hongye guessed.

"Then put him down quickly." The patriarch was busy.

"Wait, he's frozen like this." Ashan said, but Ashan wasn't sure if humans could sleep on the fire, and reached for a temperature between Thrall's **** and the skin on the kang, and again Turned Thrall over and peeled off his pants to see if he was scalded. "It's not hot... forget it. I watched him turn over a little bit for him. It shouldn't be a problem."

"Is the snow outside heavy?" Hongye said, "Last year's hide was not frozen so early."

"Large, your tent has collapsed." A Shan casually said.

Hongye sang out of Kang and rushed out...but remember to wear shoes.

"Oh, the bean sprout shed is fine." Wool also hurriedly went out to check her exclusive grass shed.

"Ayun said that when the snow is too heavy, remember to clear the snow on the roof, otherwise the roof will be crushed." The patriarch sat down on the Kang along to wear shoes, "Ashan, you look at the leather making, I remove the snow."

"I still remove the snow, the patriarch you look at the leather making, A Yun taught me how to do it." A Shan busy said, the house is so important, he was not at ease with others.

A lot of people got up in this room, and someone awoke in the other room.

"Um...huh!"

Sweaty Qingyan opened his eyes with difficulty, and found that...the left thigh was lying across his chest, and the right half of his shoulder plus an arm hugged his belly.

"...No wonder Ayun is willing to squeeze another crowded room and never sleep with you two."

Qingyan struggled to push away the grass and the big river with bad sleep, wiped his sweat and sat up... and then he saw Da Xue holding his thigh tightly in his arms at night, holding a snow werewolf cub, the cub The hair on top of my head was sweaty.

Silently rescued the sleeping cub, Qingyan avoided the charming big river Kang wearing shoes, added a big fire to the stove and opened the curtain to look out: "---- Hey? Actually so down Heavy snow?!"

Outside the thick animal skin pressed with wood, the distance one step away, that is, the thick snow covering the calf, Qingyan, who slept unconsciously for a night, was surprised.

"...Kang and the house are really good things. If you sleep in a tent, such a large amount of snow will be coldly killed. How could you sleep so sweetly without knowing it. Alas, I don't know how the family is..."

Qingyan sighed. He liked the life in the Snow Wolf tribe, but he still could not forget his people.

After taking a long branch to clear the snow on the roof, Ah Shan saw Qingyan and waved quickly: "Qingyan, come and help remove the snow."

"Oh, what shall I do?"

A Shan looked at Qingyan's small body, stretched his arms to hug him, and raised: "Well... you are only a little heavier than the cubs. The roof should be able to bear your weight. You climb up and push the snow down. "

Unexpectedly, Qingyan, who took a trick to kill her sister, stared dumbly at Ashan for a few seconds...

The two men cleared the two fire-kang rooms and the roof of a mobile home that had not yet been burned, and the clan members awoke. In such heavy snows in the past, everyone was frozen enough to tremble and sleep in the tent; this year, after eating and sleeping well, all of them were full of energy, and the adult people began to clean the snow in the tribe. The cubs cheered and rushed to the white snowfield outside.

Xiao Yun slept until he woke up naturally, and when he opened his eyes, it was half a morning. He stretched out a lazy bed, lying on the bed, and found that... there are more N people left on the Kang today than before.

"No grazing, no patrol and hunting... Huh, it's a really relaxing winter." Xiao Yun glared and slowly sat up. The clan or chatter or rattan weeds made the atmosphere in the house particularly relaxing, even he was infected. I didn't worry about tribal livelihood as soon as I woke up.

"Is it still snowing outside?"

"Well, the snow on the roof has been cleared once. Does Ayun want to drink broth? There are still leftover bean sprouts and enoki mushrooms." Asan Road, sitting with Hongye, grinds bones and arrows.

"Has the enoki mushroom washed?"

"I added it and washed it." The wool of the woven rattan grass looked over. "Everyone knows that Ayun, you don't like mud in the soup. Now everyone wants to drink mud broth. The taste will become bitter. "

"Ayun, do you want to eat fried fish?"

"...Chorn, can you tell me something else?"

"Oh." The horns swallowed. "Ayun fried beans? I want to play the chopstick war game."

Xiao Yun was wearing kang and shoes under his black face... Then he was shocked to find that Thrall was actually lying on Kang's head. When his eyes were on, Thrall was embarrassed to keep his face off.

"This thing..." Xiao Yun twitched his mouth, "Wouldn't it be such a thing that when I was a demon and a monster refused to enjoy the benefits I brought to the point of compromising me with self-righteousness... and then I can't stand it now Well, I forgot why I was abandoning me at first?"

Thinking about it this way, Xiao Yun was a little angry and a little funny, and lengthened the tone and said: "Saar~~"

Thrall gave him a guilty look, his head drooping.

"It's so cold, it's snowing again, and it's not easy to sleep in the tent?" Xiao Yun deliberately.

"Cough, cough!" Thrall coughed twice, still keeping his head down.

"Is it Ayun that you don't let leather making sleep on the kang?" Hongye disagreed. "Ayun, don't bully the leather making. Humans are very fragile. If the morning wasn't discovered early by A Shan, the leather making might freeze."

"Huh?" The patriarch who was chatting with the tribe looked sharply.

"Lying trough? Where does this follow!" Xiao Yun didn't carry this pot, "I have never done such a thing, Thrall has an opinion on me."

All the people in the room focused their attention on Thrall.

Thrall insisted on not eating bean sprouts or sleeping on the kang during these days. The psychological pressure was also greater. He was a lot thinner than when Xiao Yun first came, and his cheeks were dented by his beard. At this time, Xiao Yun was run over again, and his face was blue and white It was red and red, like Kairanfang, and could not lift his head.

"Leather making, how come you don't like Ayun?" Hongye was not particularly understanding, and Ashan frowned tightly.

"..." Thrall felt bitter and couldn't say yet. Your own clan Ding doesn't think the cub Ayun is weird. What else can he say?

Xiao Yun didn't really want to force Thrall. First, it was too naive to fight with children. Second, it was unnecessary. Third, Thrall was a human with a certain level of education. If he could cooperate , Wholeheartedly devote to the cause of improving the survival environment of the Snow Werewolf, how much can be used to some extent-so-called a pair of underwear and toilet paper have their existence value, right?

With this in mind, Xiao Yun came up with the experience of working as an intern in the workplace of a modern society. He first waved the tribe to wave him to get it done, and then sat on the kang at the foot of Thrall. , You say, what is the most important and precious thing in this world?"

Thrall: "..."

This kind of big proposition can't be answered, and Xiao Yun doesn't need him to answer it. He just uses this kind of empty big proposition to elevate the force of dialogue... The boss Huyou's subordinates love to do this when selling chicken soup:" It’s life. There is infinite hope when you live, and you’ll have nothing when you die. You are wanted by the nobles of the human kingdom, and you have escaped all the way to the prairie in order to survive. You are almost sure to be a slave. Have a deeper feeling?"

The first step in persuading others is to affirm the other party and do something successful from the other party to open the topic and give others a hint of "I understand you, we are ourselves". This is the basic skill of words-go up Just say a fart if you totally deny others, people hate you too late. This is why some parents who deny their children's discipline have always failed to discipline their children. Even if they occupy the natural convenience of direct blood relatives, you can't drag others to your own camp for training, and your pro son will have to turn your face.

Thrall raised his head and looked at Xiao Yun, his facial muscles twitched. Obviously, Xiao Yun's words touched him, and he felt that he was not easy... The sacrifices he made for his life were greatly increased. But Xiao Yun's words seemed to threaten him, which made him even more afraid to express his position easily.

"Actually, all people, all races, all intelligent creatures are the same, and they are doing their best to survive. If you can live a better life while saving your life, and you can see the hope of a better life, then all People will go all out. After all, only water will flow down, and people will always try their best to walk up high, right?" Xiao Yun said.

He said this in a cloud, for example, the patriarch who was listening did not understand what he was talking about, only the meaning of the surface, and nodded there repeatedly; but Xiao Yun believed that Thrall could understand what he said. Deep meaning-Thrall, a complex human being, is actually better for Xiao Yun, who lives in the era of information explosion and has been working in the workplace for many years, than the linear Snow Wolf... because the former is more selfish. Strong, desire is more clear.

"People are going to... high?" Thrall chewed the meaning of this sentence several times and repeated it softly.

Xiao Yun slightly moved his sitting position and turned his back to the people in the room, revealing a pure smile that only Thr could see-this is persuasion and threat. As a weak human living under the protection of the snow werewolf, you are special Who should show the gesture of a good family woman? Laozi is too busy to do psychological construction for you. If you want to kneel and lick, you have to choose one yourself!

The big things are not as important to you as your life. Think about it and answer!

Xiao Yun is still completely moderate in persuasion on the bright side, and the threats are all hidden deep. He believes that Thrall can understand, and Thrall does understand-this tight facial muscle has collapsed, use A compelling argument is that the psychological defense line collapsed.

Thrall felt an inexplicable fear. The Snow Werewolf had a pair of beautiful emerald green eyes. The simple-minded Snow Werewolf's eyes are always very pure; but this cub is different. There are too many things in his eyes. Miscellaneous, just like humans... For Thrall, who has a deep understanding of humans, this is the greatest fear: Snow Werewolves with human eyes are countless times more dangerous than pure Snow Werewolves.

"You..." Thrall's mind was blank, and it was ridiculous to put it bluntly, but he was indeed afraid of human beings, and he was exiled by human society, compared to those who want to use his head to earn bounties, those Considering him as a kind of commodity, the alien Snow Werewolf can give him a sense of security; at this moment, he found that a kind of alien with human eyes appeared in the Snow Werewolf. The sense of security he obtained from the Snow Werewolf tribe instantly collapsed and collapsed. He could no longer give himself courage with what he believed in. After whispering silently for a moment, he shuddered and dropped his gaze, "...you are right."

"That's right." Xiao Yun patted his shoulder with a smile. "You are an educated human. You have a good brain and a smart person. You can remember things. Take a good rest for a few days to raise your body. Then I will build a mushroom house. , You come to learn to cultivate mushrooms together, a variety of mushrooms and mushrooms come out, everyone likes to eat."

"...OK." Thrall smiled back stiffly.

The snow wolves who didn’t know the confrontation between them looked cute and watched the two shake hands, and the innocent and lovely wool happily said to Thrall: "If you go to grow mushrooms, you can’t tell you to make leather. It’s not very nice. We will call you Thrall like Ayun in the future?"

Thrall... Thrall comes more tragicly from it, why is there a strange kind of cub Ayun among the snow werewolves! How good is the original snow werewolf!

Xiao Yun didn't have time to understand Thrall's grief, he still has a lot of things-so many acorns can be used without moving back, at least they need to be shelled before they can be used as feed or ground into starch; and The acorns need to be dried when they are unshelled. Now it is snowing and not dry, so the only option is to dry them in the underfloor heating room...The family members have no time to enjoy relaxing in the underfloor heating room, but the acorns are the first to enjoy Arrived.

When the snow stopped in the afternoon, the adult tribes carried wooden snow-plowing tools to remove snow from the place where cattle and sheep flocked, and checked whether there were frostbitten livestock. Xiao Yun took the cubs to start the acorn processing business... … Qingyan, who was disgusted by the strength of the adult Snow Wolf, was also put into the cubs' team.

Qing Yan: "..." glanced at Thrall who was hiding in the house, okay... fortunately, his role is greater than humans.
