Wolf King

Chapter 56: Blue fruit day

Blue fruit, male, 51 years old, remarried after widowed, partner Snowflake, has a son and a daughter.

As an adult male in the tribe, Lan Guo is not a strong group. Although his height is no problem, the altitude is the same height as the red leaves, but his body is not as strong as Azhuang... because he ran out when he was young Tribal play was attacked by beasts, one hind leg was bitten, and it was a bit lame to walk for so many years.

Physical disability is not a big problem for the snow werewolf, he can take on the work of an adult, and the tribe will not consider him a burden. Those who can survive are precious. Just because Ding's flaws are watching the clan die, that is what the Snow Werewolf cannot understand.

For example, Lan Guo, he had lived well in the tribe. He suffered a leg injury when he was young and could not jump around like other cubs. He often sits alone and thinks, and his intelligence is gradually higher than his peers... His brain is flexible and he can think. Such an adult male is also attractive. He turns to be a female warrior in the tribe after he turns 30. The two partners form a cub.

Eleven years ago, my partner summoned the king's account to participate in the war. He laughed and said that he would bring back the spoils to buy a lot of sugar and salt in the tribe.

Lan Guo was hit hard, and the whole person fell down. At the worst, he refused to say a word a year. The tribe understood his pain and dragged him and his cubs, and moved many times over the years, from the center of the grassland to the southwest border.

The day when the muddy blue fruit woke up from his grief was the night when the fish and green leafy vegetables appeared in the tribe's dinner. Lan Guo took the fried fish pieces distributed by the patriarch, and ate them. When he grabbed the barbecue, his cub handed over the fried fish that had bitten off half of him, and looked at him staring blankly.

"Dad, this is delicious."

Lan Guo stared blankly at the caring face of the cub, and suddenly felt a pain in his heart.

The partner is gone...but the cub is still there.

He couldn’t be lost anymore. He slowly pulled up the heart immersed in pain little by little. He and the clan carefully searched for wild vegetables in the gap between herding. The clan people only knew that the wild vegetables were delicious, but he understood that only It would be unhealthy to eat meat. For the sake of the clan and the cubs, he had to make up the responsibility of so many years of neglect.

Since that meal of grilled fish and wild vegetables appeared at the dinner, many changes have taken place in the tribe. Unpleasant black beans have become crisp and tender and sprouts. A lot of pottery has appeared in the tribe. Everyone can use pottery bowls to eat. They made mud bricks that could build a house, and made warm kang-Lan Guo found that behind all this was the effort of the young cub Ayun, and he became more ashamed because the adults like him did not suffer. Taking responsibility, Ayun, as a cub, had to stand up! How is he going to face Ayun who was just a cub and also lost his loved ones!

Lan Guo was still reticent, silently and wholeheartedly doing the work assigned to him. From a helplessness to a resurgence, he won the attention of Snow, who also lost his partner. Before the arrival of last winter, Snow extended his hand to him.

When he decided to raise the cubs of the two together with Snow, Ayun persuaded the tribe to allocate houses to these people who determined the relationship-this made Lan Guo even more guilty, even if he understood this unique house. It belongs to him and Snowflakes, and he has no face to take possession of, so he always keeps the cubs who have lost their parents in the family to live together, watching the wool they and their cubs fight on the fire kang, he can I feel a little relieved.

The blue fruit that worked silently never expressed himself, never said a word, but he did not complain about the hard work. This was noticed by Ayun, so before this winter came, Ayun let him and the grass and water Let's lead the work team together-Lan Guo felt a little nervous about this arrangement. He didn't feel that he had selfishly abandoned the tribal responsibilities and was immersed in his sadness to do what Ayun asked, but... Without further refusal, he could not escape again, and was once again irresponsible to the tribe.

Accepting the arrangement with the utmost stubbornness, the next day will be a challenge for Languo every day... There are twelve to thirteen people in each work team. After dividing the team, A Yun will not arrange each person in detail. Rather, the captain of the work team probably set aside the work to be done in a day or a few days, and the captains will arrange it themselves-the captains are not only Ayun’s megaphone, but also responsible for the team’s manpower and work details. .

As long as he is only responsible for his own work, he only has to bury his head and do things silently. To be responsible for the work arrangement of so many people, Lan Guo's heart and liver are shaking... He has always been guilty and compensated for the clan, let him arrange work for the clan It's too hard to be human!

Among the three work teams, Dashui's approach is to divide the manpower into small groups and work hard. There are groups that can't be done and then let other groups help. The practice of Qingcao is to simply and rudely everyone work together, one by one. Lan Guo passed by; after peeping at their arrangement, Lan Guo discovered... that he couldn't copy it. Dashui and Qingcao's personality was different from him. Anyway, he couldn't do anything like Dashui and Qingcao to drive others. people.

After a period of time, Lan Guo found that Ayun’s approach to dividing the work scope of the work team was a bit strange-in addition to the work that required the full assignment, A Yun’s tasks for the three work teams were very different. , Dashui’s work team is more responsible for relatively fragmentary tasks, such as assisting rabbits to kill sheep and pigs, helping the gray dwarves to move heavy objects to make mud molds, and giving Thrall and grassroots patriarchs to get cultivation tanks and breeding bases. , Trivial tasks such as grinding wheat flour, soy milk, removing tribal snow, and sanitation; arranging for the grass team to transport coal and mine, collecting bird dung humus, and steaming and smashing the bones brought back by the soldiers. But it's much simpler and less troublesome work; for your own work team, you can check for vacancies when the two teams are too busy, or directly assist them in doing things.

Lan Guo began to think about what Ayun arranged for these three teams. After observing for a few days, he slowly discovered that... Ayun seemed to be a team divided by personality and ability. It is a group of more careful and patient people, and Qingcao's work team is a group of more brutal people. And his own work team... Lan Guo thought carefully about the 14 people in his team, including himself, and he was reluctant to believe the facts that he found that his team was either just boring or sloppy. There is no physical advantage, or you like to be lazy and complain...

This hurting fact kept Lan Guo awake for two nights. It turns out that A Yun didn't have much faith in him, so he didn't expect him to be alone...

His partner Xue asked him with concern, and Lan Guo couldn't tell Xue who was assigned to the Dashui team...

Fortunately, he was only depressed for two days before he eased up. What to say... Ayun arranged 13 people to let him lead, which is also a kind of trust, and he had had "irresponsible black history" before "This time it is impossible to live up to the expectations of the people.

In the second month of winter, the snow was heavier than last month. The snow was swept away the day before. When I woke up today and pushed the door, the snow piled up so high.

"Huh... It's so much snow again." Lan Guo removed the wooden door tied with animal skins and planks, looked at the waist-high snow, sealed the wooden door again, turned and walked to the Kangtou stove, bent down to let go Grab bean sprouts, pickles and salted radish slices cut the night before in the pottery pot in front of the stove, and sprinkle them into the iron pan on the stove.

After the grey dwarf's shaft furnace produced molten iron, each family was divided into an iron pot that had better heat transfer than a clay pot and was burnt. The blue fruit got up early and was put into the iron pot on the stove. The bean sprouts and pickled carrots thrown in were gradually engulfed by the grunting soup.

Open the woven straw cupboard and take out the pottery bowls, lined up in front of the stove, Lan Guo went to wake up the crowd who was sleeping on the kang, except his partner and two cubs, three of them wool The cubs were also crowded in his house: "Snowflake, wake up, wool, get up and eat..."

The young couple and the five cubs snored and drank a large pot of soup, dressed in cold sweaters, animal skin pants, and then put on the new fingerless wool gloves made by the rabbits, and they all went out together. Busy work-the wool is in charge of the bean sprout room, the cubs are going to join Qingyan to take care of the livestock; such a big snow, the blue fruit team and the snowflake team must also clear the snow inside the tribe, the tribe also The places where people are coming and going must be cleaned up so that no one will fall and be injured... Mainly the man of Thrall, he can't stand falling.

Before that, Lan Guo still has an important thing to do. He carried the snow-removing shovel to the house where the goblin lived at the end of the collective bedroom. He pulled the snow shovel at the door and moved the door in. Sure enough, the chilly goblins were still on the kang in this weather. Wearing a fur blanket, it was the same that shivered and could not get up.

Ayun didn't arrange Lan Guo to take care of the goblin (in fact, this product was forgotten). It was Lan Guo who knew the importance of the goblin. He came to see it every morning... Without the stone mill made by goblin, so many people in the tribe can't eat it now. This soft and delicate steamed cake.

Add coal to the stove, check if the coal is enough, then lift the pot onto the stove, boil the prepared kimchi radishes in all the houses with kang, and check whether the vents in the lower house are blocked. The goblins were blocked (the gang of goods were really blocked, fortunately they were found early), and then they yelled the goblins to eat some hot soup to warm their bodies-the goblins could not get out of the house to do work, but they were not idle. For meals, I nest in the house every day to do some manual work within my ability, such as weaving vine grass, bark tools, and processing small mechanical parts for the gray dwarf.

On the way back, Lan Guo went to see the three houses where the gray dwarves lived. The gray dwarves were not as cold as the goblins. At this time, they opened the door to drink soup. Shire also waved and greeted the blue fruit very spirited .

As for Tu Hao, these little guys don't need to worry about it... When Lan Guo passed by their house, he also saw the ball standing on the stovetop to bake the leftover steamed cakes the previous day.

People in the tribe are now inconvenient to gather together to eat together, and the weather is getting colder. Xiao Yun let everyone stay in a certain room, and each room distributes food according to the number of people in each room... The ingredients for breakfast are the day before At night, they distributed some Dahe horns that were responsible for the food of the entire population. If any room had leftover Chinese dinners, they could keep it for themselves and eat slowly.

Lan Guo walked to the square in front of the tribe, and it didn't take long for the tribes in the team to arrive. There was no need to distribute. When the team of the big water was all together, the men copied the broom made of shovel and reed rods to the tribe The buildings and the way to go have priority to remove snow.

"Hey, hey!"

The gray dwarves came out of the collective bedroom area, and the strong and powerful walked in front, shoveling the chest-heavy heavy snow as they walked, and far away saw the snow werewolf team that cleared the snow on the roof, Baru waved and shouted: " The big water, the sewer outlet of the house on the right where we live is frozen!"

"Got it, I'll ask someone to deal with it later." Dashui waved his hand.

"Hey, hey!" the grey dwarves shouted their shoveling snow and went to the industrial zone.

Qingyan, wrapped in hairballs, struggled to pull the snow out of the collective dormitory area, followed by a yawning snow werewolf cub behind his butt. Passing the square, Qingyan looked around to find the big water, and opened his throat and shouted: "Wait for you to grind the wheat flour, don't forget to grind the acorns, or the pig will break."

"You know, you come here before noon." Dashui waved his hand.

"Big water, get some clean snow to boil the water, the water is not enough." Dahe, the number one cook, came holding a bundle of Chinese cabbage.

"I got it..." Dashui waved his hands weakly.

"Large water--"

Lan Guo picked a few light-weight tribes to go to the shed area, and silently looked back at Dashui... Dashui is very popular now, and he is a little envious and sympathetic...

The roof of the big shed area has no tile roof to resist the pressure, and the snow must be removed in time. Put the gray short artificial ladder on the wall, and the lighter-weight blue fruit climbs to the roof. The broom with the long handle has just swept a few times , I saw the grass leading the team out.

In order to allow the grass team to move in snowy days, Ayun asked the gray dwarves to build dozens of sleighs with iron shelves and nails for them. These sleighs are connected in series. Dragging away. When Lan Guo raised his eyes and looked at the past, Qingcao and their group were gathering together to guess the fist, and the losers undressed... turned wolf.

A huge snow wolf dragged a long sled team on the snowfield. Lan Guoting felt that this scene was very exciting many times. If he was to be involved, he would be a wolf... Unfortunately, all the sleds are now It is used to run into the forest and shovel the humus layer of bird dung that is pressed by snow underneath. No one else wants to play.

The person who lost the guessing fist took off his clothes and handed it to the others, turning into a wolf shape by himself. "Come up quickly and set off!"

"Yahoo--"

Amidst the noise made by the grass, the sled team went away...

Lan Guo once again showed a little envious expression, and it was unclear whether he envied the grass or the work they assigned.

Clearing the snow in the tribe, and dumping the snow piles under the tribe, the work of this day officially began. Lan Guo and Dashui touched each other. After listening to Dashui's introduction to the work of the tribe today, they divided the people in their team into two groups, one to help the cubs clean the pigsty and the cattle and sheepfolds. Come to grind wheat flour, soybeans, and acorns.

After eating soft steamed rice cakes, no one wants to eat wheat crackers anymore. Although this kind of work is boring, no one will complain... Those who grind soy milk can drink the first pot of hot soy milk cooked by Dahe It!

The four hand-pushing stone mills in the mill were made by the goblins before they could leave the door completely. At the same time, two milling wheat flours, one soy milk, and one acorn for feeding pigs were kept. Drink it for the tribe, make it into bean curd and add vegetables, and make the rest into dry tofu. The gypsum with bean curd and the salt and brine block with bean curd are placed in Dahe, and the soybean milk can be ordered immediately after cooking.

"First make a few pots of bean curd, everyone will change their taste at noon?" Dahe, who cooks soy milk, asked at the mill midway.

"Okay!" The sweaty people nodded together.

"Wild garlic is gone, only salt and vinegar."

"no problem, no problem!"

Dahe happily went to some bean curd.

"...Wait, that green dragon hasn't left yet, and the lack of bean curds may not be enough points!" Dashui suddenly remembered something and hurried to chase the river.

"Ah? The Green Dragon hasn't left yet?"

Lan Guo looked at the other people in shock, most of them were as dumb as he was, and only two people who lived in collective dormitory No. 1 nodded bitterly: "I didn't go, I stayed in the activity room."

The diagonally opposite door of Room 1 is the activity room, so it is true... Lan Guo didn't know what to do. Why didn't Ayun send the green dragon away this time, how dangerous it would be to stay in the tribe !

Lan Guo looked out worriedly, but saw that... A Yun raised his head from the activity room, and when he saw him, his eyes lit up: "Languo, come on."

Lan Guo quickly looked at it, and A Yun's expression was very relaxed, with a natural smile in the corner of his mouth. It was not like he was mad at the green dragon, so he ran over with doubt.

The activity room is a place where everyone stays when they rest. The door frame, the door shaft and the wooden door that can be opened and closed are purposely made. Lan Guo ran to Ayun and his eyes immediately looked into the door behind Ayun-then his expression solidified Living.

The Green Dragon is indeed inside, sitting in the set of tables and chairs where no one usually sits. Overnight, this green dragon who didn't take a straight look at people and always had his chin up to the sky, actually became...becoming as tired as alfalfa cut five days and nights, with his head down and his face pale and resting on The hands on the table seemed to tremble slightly, and the eyes that were always greedy with green light were lost, and he stared blankly at the empty desktop...

"Blue fruit?" Xiao Yun unexpectedly.

"Yes." Lan Guo quickly withdrew his eyes.

Xiao Yun turned sideways and sideways toward the sluggish Green Dragon, his hands spread out, with respect and politeness in his attitude and gratitude, with gratitude: "The old friend of our tribe, the distinguished Green Dragon Lord, helped us to find out the suitable hue The plough structure diagram, in order to express our gratitude, we should prepare the richest banquet for your lord. As a thank you... you go to the tool warehouse to get the bark fishing net (made by goblins) and the steel soldering iron hammer, and cut the ice to catch some fish. , Big fish."

"..." Lan Guo's eyes could not help but glanced into the room, the tired green dragon was reluctantly raising his face, pulling out a laborious dry smile... swallowed, Lan Guo took the heart Doubt down, nod, "Okay."

I broke the ice and caught the fish last year. The blue fruit is not unfamiliar... It's just that the fish in the river is very smelly. It must be heavy salt and fried with animal fat to be delicious. There are not so many in the tribe. Oil, so rarely go to catch fish.

I called a person to help, brought my tools and went straight to the river. Languo couldn't help thinking along the way: I didn't see any big movements from the tribe last night. I didn't see many things in the tribe in the morning. Ayun What on earth did the green dragon do to make him like that? !

In this season, the water level in the river is not high, and the ice layer is very thick. I chose a piece of ice to use steel brazing to open a palm with both hands to spread such a large circle. Not much will gather large and small river fish under the ice surface, dragging After catching a few nets, he picked up a dozen of the fattest ones and brought them back to the tribe. Ayun didn't let the big river catch his hands and ran out to deal with the river fish.

Xiao Yun slaughtered fish, scaled the fish line, went to the fish gills, brushed the pile of salt and marinated it in the pot. Looking back, the blue fruit that was close to him and resembled a transparent person actually stuck behind him.

"Blue fruit?"

Lan Guo's expression was hesitant and hesitated again and again: "Ayun...that...I don't know if I should say..."

Xiao Yun's body was shocked, his eyes widened, and the trough actually heard such lines from the Snow Wolf population? ! Is he in the wrong position to stay up late? !

Pinching his thighs and confirming that he hadn't slept, Xiao Yun cheered up: "What are you talking about, Lan Guo? Although it's okay."

In general, this kind of line comes out, that’s what Cliff wants to say. Just let go of it. Sure enough, Lan Guo’s eyes became firm, and he took Xiao Yun’s sight seriously: “Ayun, that green dragon is very dangerous, you alone Facing him, and forcing him, what if he attacks you? Next time... or don’t be alone with him."

Xiao Yun... Xiao Yun's chin fell uncontrollably and looked at Languo as he had known him for the first time.

Lan Guo couldn't take care of the others, and thought A Yun would not listen to him: "Either you... let Hongye stay with you. In this way, we will be very worried that you will be hurt by the green dragon."

Xiao Yun... Xiao Yun raised his hand to hold his chin, staring at Lan Guo's eyes gradually glowing green light-Snow's partner, silent, hard-working, and careful to everyone, this is the blue in Xiao Yun's impression fruit.

Stupid like horns will complain that he has arranged too much work, too tired, Lan Guo never complained.

In other words, Xiao Yun tossed the whole family for more than a year, listening to Lan Guo’s words no more than 100 words... nor can it be deliberately excluded or disgusted, anyway, Lan Guo was not close to him; arranged him to bring a team , This guy who communicates and works forever will always only have the three constant sentences of "good, good, yes"-it is no wonder that Xiao Yun has classified him as "submissive but wooden brain". , No one can choose to go to the classification of his count.

Lan Guo found that Xiao Yun's eyes were not right, and he felt nervous: "Ah, Ayun?"

"Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh..." Xiao Yun raised his hand on Lan Guo's lean and strong arm, splitting eight petals of white teeth, "I know, Lan Guo, thank you for worrying about me. "

"..." Lan Guo didn't know why, so there was a not-so-good hunch...
