Aze carefully erased his own traces all the way, and finally returned to the place where the locust dragons and the antelope dragons passed by, and walked to the Chishui River along the locust dragon's footprints, although he was worried about Azhang However, the snow field is too big, so it is not only unrealistic to search casually, but also a very dangerous thing.
Ze's heart is heavy. There are too many hyena dragons wandering on the plains this winter. In previous years, the hyena dragons would return to the forest after attacking the tribe from the forest. They rarely wandered on the plain for so long. Time passed, and now the hunting methods of hyena dragons seemed to have changed. This was the first time he saw a hyena dragon lying quietly waiting to ambush its prey.
After returning to the Chishui River, A Ze searched the vicinity to see if there were any traces left by A Zhang, but he was naturally disappointed. He waited by the Chishui River until the evening, and found that A Zhang hadn't come back. Uneasy, but this place is very close to home, Aze plans to go home first, and come back tomorrow to check the situation.
Chen Qi recently took a few boards to paint and draw, and often stood on the fence as if thinking about something.
He is no longer going to help guard, and the work of cooking has been completely handed over to Carlo, and he has devoted himself to painting and painting.
"Chen Qi, what are you doing?" Ake, who was on guard today, couldn't control his curiosity and asked.
Chen Qi stopped his painting and pointed to the yard, "I plan to plan this place and build a new tribe."
Ake looked at him slightly surprised, "What are you going to do?"
Chen Qi took out a few painted wooden boards and briefly explained them to Ake. Although Ake didn't understand much after listening, he also knew that the layout of the tribe planned by Chen Qi was better than the Rock Mountain tribe he originally stayed in. Much better, he looked at Chen Qi with bright eyes, "Then you continue to work, if you need my help, just tell me."
Chen Qi nodded, picked up the charcoal pencil and began to draw again. He only had a rough idea, and there were still many details that he hadn't thought through yet.
In fact, Chen Qi's plan is not complicated. It is better to say that he intends to copy other people's results directly. He wants to imitate the symmetrical layout of the ancient Chang'an city and combine it with the general plan of the city he lived in before as the basis for the construction of the new tribe. .
After all, the Rock Mountain Tribe is going to rebuild on this empty plain, which will give Chen Qi a lot of room to play, and if it develops well, there will probably be other orcs joining in the future, so the foundation of the new tribe The construction must be considered clearly first, so that even if the subsequent expansion continues, it will not be messy.
Sitting on the futon by the wall, Chen Qi was resting his chin on the wooden board with a simple plan drawn in his hand, completely unaware that his fingers had already been stained black by the charcoal. Finger marks of different shades.
Although Chen Qi was not in charge of security, he would still stay on the wall most of the day. Although there was a reason for surveying the terrain, the main purpose was also because he could see Aze come back here for the first time.
The fire plate beside him was crackling, Chen Qi frowned unnaturally, calling back his wandering thoughts, before he looked up, he was hugged tightly by a warm embrace, Chen Qi slightly Turning his head, he saw the familiar head that he had missed for several days.
Chen Qi's brows uncontrollably stretched, his gaze softened, and he softly called the other party's name, "Ah Ze."
A Ze buried his head in Chen Qi's neck, smelling the familiar smell from Chen Qi's body, the restless emotions of wandering between life and death for the past few days finally calmed down.
A Li saw Aze in the watchtower and hurried out. Seeing the people hugging each other, he swallowed back the words he was about to ask for news.
It was Chen Qi who couldn't bear to see A Li's anxious expression, so he patted A Ze on the back lightly, asking him to let him go, "A Ze, have you found A Zhang yet?"
A Ze's body froze for a moment, he looked back at Ali who was standing beside him, nodded, then shook his head, after thinking about it, he still told the two about the situation on the road.
The more Ah Li heard it, the colder his hands and feet became, and finally he stood there with a blank expression. Chen Qi walked over to comfort him and said, "Don't worry too much, Ah Zhang is so powerful, he will be fine, maybe he will be back in two days."
Ali raised his head to look at Chen Qi, and responded in a subtle way, then turned around and went back to the watchtower, closing the tower door heavily.
Chen Qi held Aze's hand that wanted to go forward, "Let him be alone for a while, you're hungry too, I'll make you something delicious."
"Um."
As soon as A Ze entered the door, the little wolf cub jumped into his arms, his little tail flew up, his big eyes were shining, his little pink tongue couldn't reach A Ze's face, so he licked A Ze and hugged himself hands.
Chen Qi felt that half of the little wolf cub's blood must be dogs, otherwise a purebred wolf was raised by himself to look like this. I don't know if the little wolf cub's mother would get up from the ground and give him a slap in the face paws up.
Aze hadn't seen the little wolf cub for a few days, and he missed it very much. Thinking of the giant wolf god who saved him, he looked at the little wolf cub with a much more pampered look than before, and gently rubbed its little head , directly carried the little wolf cub in his arms and entered the house.
Chen Qi now cooks bone soup and fish cakes every day, just worried that Aze will be hungry when he comes back. At this moment, I first filled a bowl of soup for Aze, seasoned it with salt, and then took out the fish cakes, cut them and put them on the small table by the fire, let Aze eat some to pad his stomach, and make After I was done, I turned around and went out to fetch the meat and came in to prepare some other food.
Aze hadn't eaten for a long time since he threw away the backpack containing the food, and he was really hungry at the moment. He put the little wolf cub aside, took the small wooden plate dedicated to it, and took a piece first. Fish cakes into small wooden dishes. The little wolf cub sniffed it with his nose, and then began to eat.
Now the little wolf cub no longer eats milk and fruit. Chen Qi tried to feed it raw meat before, but this little guy seems to dislike the taste of raw meat. He would rather be hungry than eat the food if it is not cooked. The cub is not picky at all, even the cabbage that Carlo dislikes very much, he can eat it with relish.
"You said that if it goes back to the wild in the future, it will starve to death if it is so picky." Chen Qi couldn't help worrying every time he saw the little wolf cub eating cooked food.
"Why do you want to go to the wild? Can't the little wolf live with us all the time?" Ah Jing came to help Chen Qi, and when he heard Chen Qi's words, he couldn't help frowning and asked, he didn't want to raise the little wolf with us The little wolf separates.
Aze nodded approvingly, "Well, we have been raising it."
Seeing the little wolf cub eat his own fish cake and start to stare at A Ze pitifully, A Jing thought for a while and said, "I will help the little wolf hunt for food when I can hunt." Don't eat too much of it.
At this time, Ake and Carlo, who heard the movement, also came over with Ah Yao in their arms. When Carlo entered the door, he found only Aze himself, and quickly asked, "Brother, didn't you find Uncle Azhang?"
Chen Qizhi told them to sit down first, and then simply relayed what Aze said just now, Ake pondered for a while, "Tomorrow I will go to the Chishui River to have a look, and then look around, you are also tired It's been a few days, let's take a rest."
"No need." Aze shook his head, "It's too dangerous outside, I'll go with you, if you find something wrong, you must evacuate immediately."
"Yes, if you go with my brother, at least you will have someone to take care of you, don't take risks alone." Carlo always felt a little panic in his heart.
"You don't have to worry. We have made a lot of defensive weapons before, and now we have a lot of oil stored. Everyone will stay in the watchtower tomorrow. Once we find that the situation is not right, we will be able to deal with it." Chen Qi looked at the two seriously. People, "If you encounter hyena dragons, you must run home. Since we can kill the first batch of hyena dragons, we can naturally kill the second batch. Don't try to lure the hyena dragons away by yourself."
Seeing Chen Qi's firm eyes that could not be refuted, Aze walked over and gently rested his head on the other's neck, "Okay."
When he was trapped on the locust tree, when he thought he was going to die alone in the wilderness, Aze's heart was not as calm as it looked on the outside, he was afraid, the fear he had never felt before, he was afraid He would never see Chen Qi again, afraid that he would lose Chen Qi forever, afraid that Chen Qi would soon find another strong partner like other single men, afraid that Chen Qi would gradually forget his existence. if it is possible... ...
If possible, he hoped to die with Chen Qi, then Chen Qi would be his forever.
When this idea first came up, Aze himself was taken aback by his selfish thought. How could he have such an idea
He didn't dare to raise his head, afraid that Chen Qi would find out his dirty thoughts.
Aze and Ake set off early the next morning. Chen Qi prepared enough arrows and food for them, and then the few people who stayed at home moved to the watchtower.
While everyone was waiting anxiously, they finally saw Aze and Ake come back in the evening. They walked along the Chishui River for a while, and then searched for a while in the direction where Azhang fled. They were worried that the hyena dragon was still nearby. So I was very careful in my actions, but I didn't find a trace until the sunset, so I decided to go home first.
Ah Li's heart sank when he saw the two of them coming back alone, and his expression was blank. When the frightened Ah Jing carried it back, the little wolf cub suddenly howled into the distance.
The howling wolf sounded far away in the open snowy field, several orcs looked in the direction of the little wolf cub's howling, and the sharp-eyed Carlo was the first to scream, "Is there someone there? "
Before the others could react, Ali had nimbly landed on the ground along the wooden stakes on the fence, and ran towards the figure in the distance with a limp and a limp.
Aze and Ake also quickly got off the fence.
Azhang, with only half of the animal skin pants left on his body, appeared on the snowy field in embarrassment, with his limbs on the ground, his completely animalized appearance, and he thought it was a wild animal if he didn't look closely. Several pieces of hair on his body were also scratched, revealing Red skin, several stitched wounds are still oozing blood, and because the temperature is too cold, the blood has been coagulated.
A Li threw himself into A Zhang's arms, A Zhang's weak body couldn't bear his impact at all, and the two of them fell heavily on the snow, splashing snowflakes all over the ground.
Feeling the trembling body in his arms, Azhang raised his hands to run along his back. It took a long time to comfort the person in his arms with a hoarse voice, "I'm sorry for making you worry, I'm fine."
Hearing the familiar voice ringing in his ears, Ah Li's almost dead heart finally started to beat. He let go of A Zhang, and found that the other party's miserable appearance made him annoyed by his reckless behavior just now, and hurriedly talked to A Zhang. Ke and the two helped him back to the fence.
Beside a remote snowdrift that no one paid attention to, the tall and elegant figure of the giant wolf god disappeared behind the snow. Taunted, then turned and left the place without hesitation.
