The branch still burning with sparks in Lu Yu's hand fell to the ground with a snap, and he jumped back in shock, but his left foot tripped over his right foot, and he fell straight back.
"Ah—" Before Lu Yu could cry out in surprise, his arm was pulled by a big hand with protruding veins. Not only that, but also a strong arm was wrapped around his waist.
Lu Yu raised his head, staring stupidly at the face half hidden in the night.
Wait, what's going on? !
Something is not quite right!
These two actions, why are they so...
Tai Lie frowned, "You..."
Lu Yu didn't wait for him to speak, he pushed his waist upwards, and stood up straight like a zombie.
He patted the fallen ashes on the animal skin skirt, and said with some embarrassment, "Well, I didn't stand firmly."
Tyler, "Yes."
Lu Yu turned his head and scratched his face.
Tylie, "So, what I asked you just now, your answer."
Lu Yu: ...
Why is this person still asking questions!
In other words, he doesn't know how to answer, okay? Aren't you Matai people homophobic, all members are straight men, what's going on with you king!
Thinking of this, Lu Yu wanted to ask him again what he said just now, whether he heard it wrong.
It's obvious that the male hormones are exploding, but why is it... Well, this kind of person didn't say that he couldn't be gay.
If Tai Lie is a gay guy, it will be the one above at a glance...
Wait, Lu Yu, stop your free brain, what are you thinking about, does he have a dime relationship with the one above you!
Lu Yu exhaled slowly, trying to maintain a calm surface, "I don't know about this, haha."
In the end, he tried to explain, "Actually, although I am a broken wood man, I have never liked men, so I don't know much about your situation..."
In fact, Lu Yu has never liked anyone before, and he had a crush on a girl at the same table when he was in the sixth grade of elementary school, but that was not considered liking, just because at that time, not long after his grandfather passed away, Lu Yu's young Life is very gloomy, this girl has a cheerful personality and is very kind-hearted. She always takes the initiative to play with him, which can be regarded as a ray of sunshine in his gloomy life.
Later, Lu Yu never had a special affection for anyone, not even a heartbeat, and has been alone for twenty-four years.
Tai Lie narrowed his eyelids slightly, and looked at him from top to bottom, "Then how do you know that you belong to Broken Wood?"
"Eh?" Lu Yu panicked, thinking to himself that he was really confused, why he suddenly spoke so carelessly.
He racked his brains to make it up, "Probably, it's just a faint feeling in his heart, and then he doesn't have any feelings for women, and he doesn't want to marry a woman..."
Tai Lie looked at his bewildered face, "Really."
Lu Yu nodded quickly, looked around, and said haha, "Well, it's getting late, don't we go to bed?"
He pointed at the wooden shed and stepped back a little bit, "I'm a little sleepy, how about I go first..."
But Tai Lie was not ready to let him go like this, "You don't want to know, who is the person I said I like?"
Lu Yu's footsteps stopped.
The thoughts that I had deliberately ignored just now came up again.
In fact, Tai Lie has been with his clansmen before, and if there is someone he really likes, with his personality, he will not refuse to talk about it. Well, even if he has various concerns, he can’t talk about it, so why tell him now...
And those feelings he felt before...
He is not a wooden man, nor is he dull.
But he's not really a gay, not even a primitive guy who can't reciprocate Tyler's feelings.
And he still wants to continue to grow and develop with the Matai people.
That being the case, some things are better not to be revealed.
Maybe Tai Lie just felt that he was different from others, he was a novelty for a while, and he had no experience with others before, so he misunderstood this relationship.
Yes, it must be so.
Lu Yu tried hard to convince himself that as long as he didn't poke him, as long as he kept a proper distance from Tai Lie, Tai Lie would gradually understand.
After thinking about it, Lu Yu said softly, "I think it's better that I don't know."
Tai Lie's face was tense, and his fists were clenched little by little, "You mean, you don't want to know?" He emphasized the word "deliberately".
Guess what he wanted, but refused, didn't you
Lu Yu's heart suddenly seemed to be pinched, and there was some dry pain. He exhaled slowly, and said clearly and clearly, "Yes."
"I understand."
Tai Lie let go of his fist, brushed against Lu Yu's shoulder, and walked towards the wooden shed.
…
Lu Yu suffered from insomnia, he was lying on his side, staring blankly at the moonlight outside the wooden shed through the gap.
If I had to say anything, I actually didn't.
He just said something in a low voice before finally falling asleep vaguely.
But, I'm straight...
·
Early the next morning, Lu Yu woke up rubbing his dry eyes.
As soon as he sat up, Shan Pu came running in.
"Luyu, you're finally awake," Shan Pu said excitedly at first, and then drooped his eyebrows, "However, until now, no one has brought the prey."
Last night, after Lu Yu's roasted meat attracted Yinhe, a few more people came to taste Chef Lu's roasted meat, and they were all amazed.
Later, when Lu Yu saw that it was almost done, he stopped "selling" it and shared the rest of the meat with everyone.
He also explained his plan to Shanpu and the others.
The materials need to be collected, but the treasures must also be taken, earn a lot of money and then go back.
If it goes well, use this side as a stronghold, and come here occasionally.
Originally, Lu Yu's arrangements were good, and he was also very excited and energetic.
But now Lu Yu is a little discouraged.
Because just now he suddenly thought that if he wants to keep a distance from Tai Lie, he can no longer get close to him, let alone do intimate things, then he will not be able to gain favorability, and the panel will not be able to upgrade.
Wait, Lu Yu's heart skipped a beat, Tai Lie would not have misunderstood, it was because of what he did...
Lu Yu wanted to flatten himself.
"Luyu, what's the matter with you?" Shanpu suddenly looked annoyed and asked in confusion.
Lu Yu suppressed the irritability in his heart and calmed down, "I'm fine. No one came, maybe because they were going to get prey. Isn't there no hunting for people from other tribes around here? They probably won't come until very late. .”
Shan Pu suddenly realized, "So it is like this."
He and Shan Pu went out and saw Tai Lie was lighting a fire with his back turned to this side.
Lu Yu pursed his lips, talked to Shan Pu, and went to the side to use the water that Shan Pu and the others took from the small river next to Shicheng, washed briefly, and then took out Baise grass, ready to make up his face. personality.
Pinching the grass with her fingers, she gently brushed over the red mole at the end of her eyebrows.
Lu Yu paused for a moment, put down his hands, rubbed the grass in his hands, squeezed out all the juice, and then messed with his face casually.
He returned to the bonfire and first greeted everyone.
Then pretending to be normal, he forcibly said calmly, "Good morning, king."
Unexpectedly, Tai Lie was calmer than him, as usual, he responded lightly.
Lu Yu froze for a moment, then smiled easily.
It seems that Tai Lie really thought about it for a while, maybe he figured it out last night.
very nice.
very good.
Lu Yu was thinking happily, trying his best to ignore the depression in his heart.
He sat down and took out the meat to roast, in addition to making breakfast for Tai Lie and the others, it was to continue to attract others.
It just so happened that the wind direction was strong today, and the smell of barbecue wafted further afield.
This morning, Lu Yu received more than twenty "guests". Everyone only gave a small bite of the meat to taste, and when they couldn't stop eating, Lu Yu proposed his own "processing" proposal.
Everyone said that they would go back and prepare their prey.
After all, those who can live here are of some status, and it is not too difficult for them to get a live prey.
After eating Lu Yu's barbecue, no one can eat the original ones.
In the afternoon, Lu Yu and the others first left Mao Pu and two Matai people in the wooden shed to guard, then went to the entrusted area, found a slave who knew the way, and asked him to take them to the seaside.
Due to the big drifting activities and other considerations, the stone city of Wanshou was built not far from the sea, and ordinary people can get there in more than an hour's walk.
Passing through a forest, the eyes suddenly opened up.
Clear sky, blue water, golden sand.
Although this beach is not big enough, and there are rocks blocking it on both sides, the scenery is beautiful enough to be amazing.
The Matai people who have been inland and have only seen rivers and lakes were stunned. They thought the so-called sea was a larger lake.
Lu Yu took two deep breaths, turned his head, took out a piece of meat from the basket, and handed it to the slave who brought them, "Thank you, you can go back first."
On the way they came, it was obvious that the people of Shicheng had cleaned them up. There were no dangerous beasts. They were not afraid that this slave would be attacked if he walked alone.
The slave was overwhelmed with surprise and couldn't stop thanking him.
After the people left, Lu Yu and the others began to work.
Seeing that Shanpu and the others were curious, Lu Yu asked them to play first, anyway, he had to find shell stones and sea mud first.
Shan Pu cheered, and Sa Yazi ran towards the sea, even Le Shui, who had always been calm and indifferent, couldn't help walking over.
Lu Yu stopped paying attention to them, walked to the beach alone, bent down to find what they wanted.
Shell stones are easy to find. They are actually shells, but they are harder than modern ones.
Lu Yu quickly found it. After searching the panel, it was also correct. He found a few more pieces and prepared to show them to Shan Pu later.
With a pile of shell stones in his arms, Lu Yu beat his sore waist and stood up.
"Shanpu, you're done playing—" Lu Yu turned around, and his voice stopped abruptly.
Tyre was standing right behind him.
Lu Yu hugged Shell Stone's arm tightly, "What's the matter with you?"
From morning to now, he has never spoken to Tai Lie except to say good morning. Now that they are face to face, the atmosphere is a bit awkward.
Tai Lie stretched out his palm towards Lu Yu, with a small object in his wide palm.
"Is this, shell stone?" Tai Lie asked a little stiffly.
It turned out to be asking this.
Lu Yu breathed a sigh of relief, stretched out his head, looked at it, and said with a smile, "Yes—"
Um? Wait a moment!
Lu Yu's words stopped.
Why is this... shell stone in the shape of a heart
———
Early in the morning, Lu Yu was still awake.
Tai Lie found the married Leshui, and asked solemnly, "How did you make Xia Hua want to marry you?"
Le Shui froze for a moment, thought for a while, and drew a "heart" on the ground.
It means that if you want someone to marry you, you must first win the other person's heart.
Le Shui thought with relief, he is not good at words, but, in this way, the wise king should also understand.
