These Werebeast Gongs Are Rogues

Chapter 138: Mingya Baozi

Views:

On the day of the festival, there was a small warm sun that was rarely seen in the whole winter. The sky was clear and clear, the sun was gentle and lazy, and even the wind was full of inexplicable gentleness.

Lei Jin was awakened by the sound of burning bamboo inside and outside the tribe.

"It seems like spring." Lei Jin lazily ran along the stream in the morning.

The horned antelope in the grass shed looked up lazily at the still yellow grassland, and there were few acquaintances. They flicked their tails and continued to chew the not-so-tasty hay and radish sprouts. The wind last night was so gentle that it even had a spring dream. Before the dream was finished, it was ruthlessly shattered by today's reality. It began to miss the days when there were green grass everywhere.

The sacrificial activity in the morning was in the depths of the cave where the tribe took refuge. The stone walls on the ground were damp, with water droplets layer upon layer. The priest's old chanting echoed in the huge cave, making the ears buzzing. .

Xi Ya Mo Ya and seven other orcs stood respectfully behind the old priest. They were all selected from the orcs who had obtained the most prey this year, and being able to stand in that position was a great honor in itself.

The ceremony was long and complicated, Lei Jin disappeared in the crowd, covered his mouth and yawned silently, straightened his waist slightly, and looked at Mo Ya who was standing on the far side, with a cold expression and thick eyelashes, he had known him for four years, In front of people, he still has such a small appearance of indifference and abstinence, but it is quite attractive.

Suddenly, the voice of the old priest suddenly rose, and there were echoes from below. Before Lei Jin could see what was going on, waves of prey had already been thrown far away.

"The family will be safe and sound in the coming year." When they came out of the cave, everyone had to read a sentence.

"I heard that the sacrifices thrown down in the past were selected young and strong orcs." They were on their way down the mountain, and Roger said this out of nowhere.

"Oh." Lei Jin responded by rubbing the bridge of his nose. It doesn't matter what happened in the past, but it doesn't matter now. He has no interest in the bloody history that Roger studied.

"Uncle Roger, don't be scary, he's feeling cold when he hears it." Mu Ya joined them.

"Okay, let's not talk, Mu Ya, you guys come to Jiali today to eat dumplings, you made a lot of dumplings." Luo Jie invited.

Mu Ya hesitated for a moment, and said: "Probably not at noon, Dad is coming over, and Ah Mo has already gone home early to cook."

Roger smiled and didn't continue.

When I got home, I turned on the brazier and boiled hot water for dumplings. The dumplings were made early in the morning. The mutton was served with onions, the pork with leeks, shiitake mushrooms, cabbage and tofu. The chewiness is a bit better than chopping with a knife. There are also some sugar dumplings prepared for the little ones, which are made into various strange shapes by Ming Ya, which are very easy to identify.

As for the dipping dish, it is even simpler. One dish is made with some garlic and vinegar, another dish is fried with dried chilies, and a few more dishes are added. Cheng Zi, the rest of the family is safe and well, what could be better than this. The family sat around a table, and the hot dumplings were delicious.

After lunch, after clearing the table, put big bowls of peanuts, melon seeds, walnut candies, and candied fruits on the table, and the visitors will come.

The orcs talked about going out to hunt, the female talked about the harvest in the field this year, and Mo Ya went to cook a pot of chestnuts, which was steaming.

For a rare moment of leisure, Lei Jin was full of laziness, half leaning on the waist-high window sill, and he had a special obsession with the window sill.

"Have you ever gone to see the old priest?" At the end of the sacrifice, he suddenly conveyed the meaning of the gods, to love our mountains and grasslands. He almost laughed out loud at that time. The gods have also advanced with the times. Lei Jin, he couldn't think of another person who dared to take advantage of the gods. This obviously improper but unexpectedly practical method has always been Lei Jin's style of doing things.

"The old priest likes me so much." The old priest is also a sensible person, otherwise he would not be able to cooperate. The laughter of the children in the yard diluted the coldness that flashed from the corner of Lei Jin's eyes. He doesn't mind helping others, but he has never been interested in asking those who insist on seeking their own death, but Xi Ya and the others want to protect their homeland, so he will help.

"Yes, yes, everyone loves you." As soon as the words were out of his mouth, Roger seemed to have known each other, and he was in a daze, grinding the charcoal in his hand, and modified a few small places on the almost completed drawings.

Orcs are aggressive by nature, and at such a young age, they have to compete with each other if they have nothing to do, but Bubble stays out of it and doesn't participate in it. He just stands under the eaves with his little hands in his sleeves and looks at the grapes with a smile.

Although Yuzi and Chengzi are gentle with their two elder brothers at home, they are not the ones who are at a disadvantage to the outside world. They blindly listen to their father's teachings and retaliate against them as soon as they start. Few of the older ones can stand up to it. .

"It looks like the weather will change after lunch. It should be windy. Don't freeze the children, let them come in and play." Under the eaves is a wind chime he made by himself, and the sound of the impact of rough clay and wood chips is much louder now.

"It's okay, let them go." Although Lei Jin also loves the children, he doesn't want to pamper them, and he is healthy after beating and beating.

The bonfire at night is the main event, but the form is relatively simple. In the morning, the orcs around the priest lit the bonfire shelf together. Bamboo branches were put in the bonfire, and the sound of burning was very loud, like a firecracker. Qingshui circled the bonfire twice, and then sprinkled it on the steps of the temple, praying for good weather next year.

Next, drinking and barbecue, singing and dancing are all casual, the temperature drops at night, everyone is having fun, and few care about it, Xi Ya and the others are concerned about Lei Jin's current body and the little ones, so they dare not stay too long After a long time, I simply ate some barbecue and greeted everyone before going home.

"It may snow heavily tomorrow." An Luo said on the way back.

The wind picked up in the middle of the night, making the windows creak.

Lei Jin moved, and Mo Ya woke up, her eyes were bright in the darkness, "Is it cold?"

"No, I just can't sleep." The newly made quilt is thick and warm, and there is still a lot of cotton left, so I can make a lot of things in the coming year.

Lei Jin is used to sleeping naked all year round, Mo Ya stretched her hand in, the child is only a month old, Lei Jin's waistline is still tight and beautiful, "During the sacrifice today, what did you keep watching me for?" Lei Jin Jin's fiery gaze made him stretch himself hard on the altar.

Lei Jin smiled, and pulled Mo Ya's shoulders closer, thinking that today is really like a reunion year.

The next morning the sky was cloudy, and before noon the blizzard came. The north wind rolled up the dead grass and snowflakes all over the sky and rushed down together.

The charcoal fire in the house is very hot, and sugar pears are stewed in the small clay pot. The water is already boiling and steaming. Grapefruits and oranges are lying on the table wagging their tails and writing, crookedly from one to ten like ghosts. The grapes pull the bubbles to show off the herbs they picked in autumn.

And the four fathers, headed by Lei Jin, gathered around the bed and people were in full swing... Smacking a turtle, undressing, Xi Ya was the worst luck, wrapped in a quilt, only a pair of shorts left on her body, Mo Ya was not much better Go, the upper body is already naked, Lei Jin is a little better, there is still a layer of underwear left, as for Mingya, luck is so good that Lei Jin's teeth itch, and he didn't lose once.

"Nine times out of ten, they are all useless weeds." Lei Jin took the time to look at the four little guys.

In the last blow, Xi Ya was completely defeated, the three rushed forward and stripped her naked, while the four younger ones clapped their hands and cheered.

Ah, how fulfilling this family's life is.

Before evening, it was getting dark early, and the blizzard hadn't stopped yet. The branches in the yard were broken by the snow, and there were endless crackling noises.

"The door is blocked by snow and cannot be pushed open." Lei Jin tried several times, but the door did not move at all.

"Let me try it." Mingya took the last sip of candied pear water, wiped her mouth and ran over.

"Don't move, I'll go out through the window to shovel the snow first." With Mingya's brute strength, it doesn't matter how heavy the strike is. In case the door is smashed, in such a snowstorm night, think about it or not.

Lei Jin went out through the window, and as soon as his feet touched the ground, he sank half a foot. It was white outside, the snow was falling heavily, and the cold wind was blowing. He tightened his collar and shivered. He found a stone standing by the wall. With the shovel, after just a few shovels, Lei Jin felt that something was wrong. There were things buried under the snow, and neat rows of small flames were beating, as if something was slowly waking up.

No matter how daring Lei Jin was, he was frightened by this weird sight and took a step back.

One, two, three...

"What's the matter, Lei Jin?" Mingya felt worried, and immediately jumped out of the window.

"Mingya, I'm back." A small white thing with three small flames jumped up from the snow with a cheer, and rushed towards Mingya. With one kick, the little fox rolled a few times in the air, and then fell back to the ground, splashing countless snow foam.

"My family's eleven is not sensible." The leading little white magic fox nodded, followed by five others of different sizes.

"Third brother." The little fox crawled back mournfully, and stood in line at the back of the line.

Huanhu is wild and unruly. The little fox always comes and goes whenever he wants in his house, and everyone doesn't pay much attention to his whereabouts, but this time it seems that he plans to move his family here and settle down.

The forty-five days of the month of worship have passed, and the spring of the fifth year has come as promised. The ice and snow have melted, migratory birds have migrated north, and the grassland has become lively again. The Jin family also prepared all the materials for building the house this time, and it was quick to get started.

Needless to say, Qi Luo, Ai Wei and Mu Ya's family who are close to each other, the whole family spends time here every day. Jiahe found some familiar ones from the carpenter, and their skills are good. Lei Jin also played a lot of stonemasons. It's easy to communicate and talk, and their family has always been very popular in the tribe, so many people came to add and subtract.

Xi Ya and the others are busy leading people every day, and Lei Jin is not free. It is not his turn to move stones and mud to the beams of the house. The logistical meals are naturally well prepared, with large pieces of meat, large dishes, oil and water full.

This time, Luo Jie really took his heart. He consulted Lei Jin’s opinion beforehand and drew the blueprints. Now he is checking on the construction site every day. Lei Jin doesn’t understand everything that Roger said, and most of them are just beside him.

It took more than three months, at the end of spring and early summer, the house was finally completed. The tribal fairs in the middle, hunting, were intermittent, and there was no vacuum. Kunge and Leping came to play, but they couldn’t entertain them well. They promised to let them come next year. live at home.

There are seven bright and spacious rooms, and there are two side rooms on the east and west sides. There are no pigpens and chicken coops that are popular nowadays. They have already agreed to take over Ivy's shop and have no time to raise these livestock. He and Roger didn't have the patience to take care of them.

There are seven rooms, except one is the main room, and the remaining six rooms are reserved for Anbu, one for the children, and the remaining four rooms. Lei Jin suggested that the four of them should share one room. Xi Ya smiled noncommittal, Mo Ya sipped Pursing her lips and making no sound, Mingya didn't hear it.

According to Lei Jin's requirements, the windows of the house are much wider than ordinary houses. Jiahe's craftsmanship, the fine lattice wooden frame, inlaid with clean and transparent crystals, and a half-meter-wide window sill inside. When the sun is sufficient at noon, the whole The rooms are bright and warm. Due to the strong wind on the grassland, an openable window panel was added outside, and the floor and walls of the house were covered with wooden boards. The trees felled from the deep mountains were tall, and the wood was hard. After being polished, it still glowed with a faint oily sheen. Jiahe It is said that this kind of wood will not be damaged if it is soaked in water. A fire path has been dug under the house, so that heating in winter will not be a problem. Originally, Roger wanted to build a fireplace in the main room, but look at the wood and wood in this house. The little ones in the family finally gave up. The house is located on a small slope. A spacious wooden corridor is set up two feet above the ground on the south side of the house. There are some tables and chairs on it to enjoy the vast grassland scenery. It is perfect to drink water and enjoy the cool in summer. Below the corridor is The den where the fox family settled.

There are two rooms on the west side, one is used to store sundries, and the other is a kitchen, but the family does not intend to dismantle it. The meals are still cooked in Roger’s yard. There is only one stove here, which can be used more or less on weekdays Boil some hot water, and Roger also made a large airtight oven. He was whimsical, hoping that one day he would be blessed with happiness, and bake some cakes and bread. Lei Jin thought about Roger's craftsmanship, secretly smiled, and smiled. It is up to him to toss about it. It is always good for people to have hope, and he can't dampen their enthusiasm.

The two rooms on the east side have been tidied up, and a bed is placed in each of them. On weekdays, odds and ends are placed, and when there are guests, they can be used as guest rooms after cleaning up.

A big hole was dug between the house and the stream due to the use of soil. Xi Ya and the others took a rest later, and Lei Jin used it to plant lotus roots.

After half a month of airing the house, the furniture on Jiahe's side has also been finished one after another. In addition to the daily bed, tables, chairs, benches and wardrobes, there are also simple reclining chairs, cubicles and lamp shelves for placing pearls.

By the time everything was settled and people could live in, half of the summer had passed. Lan Qi came in the middle and took away Bubble, who had run away from home for half a year. Lei Jin's pregnancy entered the end of the ninth month, and the child was still silent The whole family was frightened. You must know that the orc is only eight months old, and the female is only nine months old. Tianqi only said that the baby is safe after taking the pulse, but as for how to get him out, he has no good way. Lei Jin can eat Can drink and sleep, nothing unusual except for a bigger belly, this child is better than a grape, he has been in his stomach for nearly ten months, and the number of times he moves can be counted on one hand, and it only started around six months It was moving, which made Qingqiao pharmacist start to wonder if it was stillbirth.

From summer to autumn, the sound of frogs in the pond bursts, and the blue color dissolves. The baby was finally born in the tenth month. This time, Xi Ya and the three of them were by my side. The process went smoothly. She is a fat man with thin silver-white hair. Baby, in the blink of an eye, it shrunk into a silver-white fur ball. Lei Jin saw the little orc's transformation for the first time soberly, and was quite surprised, but the baby didn't cry all the time. After patting a few times, he opened his mouth, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief, but he just yawned, hugged his head with his two fat paws, and fell asleep again.

He likes to eat everything. After a month, he has grown a size. Most of the time he is still sleeping soundly, but he has rolled in a decent way. If the family does not pay attention, he can shrink into a ball Gululu rolled everywhere, so the whole family went out, and it was not uncommon to see the baby in every corner. Once he rolled out of the bed patiently and persistently, rolled out of the room and corridor, rolled into the yard, and almost fell into the pond and drowned. Fortunately, the brothers of the fox family ran fast and dragged back with all their strength.

Lei Jin was so frightened that he had no choice but to find a cloth belt to tie around his stomach. The three little guys were full of curiosity about this little brother who could only sleep. Similarly, the little foxes also love him. When the weather is good, they will always carry him out to bask in the sun.

"Baby has eaten." As soon as Lei Jin said this, he immediately turned over his stomach, opened his mouth wide, and wished he could swallow the bowl.

Lei Jin was extremely fond of this fat dumpling that could eat and sleep at first, and he would hold it close to his chest at night. He had soft fur and a scent of frankincense all over his body, and his four little paws were fleshy, scratching both sides of his body. It doesn’t hurt when I’m hungry or when I want to poop, I will stick out my wet little tongue to lick my dad’s chin. Of course, most of the time, I’m hungry. When he’s hungry, Lei Jin will feed him. It’s like this for two months As time went by, the little guy got bigger and bigger. Every time Lei Jin carried him out of the house, his arms were numb from exhaustion, so he had to carry it instead. The females in the tribe were very envious when they saw him, and praised Lei Jin's four treasures. Two months older than other people's six-month-old baby, Lei Jin has been proud of it for a long time, don't look at Lei Jin has become his father for the third time, but he is not so gentle and gentle As for the baby, he also knows to feed when hungry, sleep when sleepy, healthy baby who can eat and sleep, but Roger thinks more, it is abnormal for the four treasures to grow so fast, don't have What kind of hidden disease, Chun Ji went out to collect herbs and was shocked when he came back. Although he didn't find out what's wrong, it's better to persuade Lei Jin to feed less.

In line with Lei Jin's style of naming, Roger proposed to call it Apple, which means peace in both Eastern and Western cultures. I hope this baby who is different from ordinary people can grow up safely. Apple is Apple. Lei Jin scratched the one sleeping on his shoulder. The drooling fat apple, even if it has a name.

It’s not just eating less, Lei Jin thought it was simple, let him mess around for the first two days, and then he will get used to it, but Apple has been making noise for more than half a month, and it still doesn’t stop. He is hungry, and he keeps his mouth open for a long time. But it was too late to wait for the food delivered by his father. He first made a short "grunt" sound, which meant that he was hungry. Come and feed him. If no one responded, he would straighten his tail , swaying left and right, trying to attract people's attention, when all the above two things failed, he showed his housekeeping skills, rolling the ball, smelling the smell, rolling wherever there are people, for this baby, Mo Ya The legs and feet of all the tables, chairs and benches in the room have been wrapped with layers of hemp rope and animal skins, and thick blankets have been laid on the wooden floor.

With the door closed, Lei Jin rolled around with him like a top, not afraid of losing it, and continued to squint and lie on the window sill to enjoy the warm autumn sun. This half-meter-wide built-in window sill was designated by Lei Jin If he wanted, he would just lie there and take a nap for a while, the sun was shining and the breeze was blowing, not to mention how comfortable it was.

The rolling of the apple was getting faster and faster, Lei Jin couldn't bear it, but he had only been feeding it for an hour, and for some reason, he couldn't pet him anymore, the little orcs usually opened their eyes after more than a month. Open your eyes, and then you can learn to walk slowly. The fastest is less than a month, and the slowest is no more than two months. But Apple is almost three months old, and I haven’t even opened a single eye. I don't know what color the eyes are, although 80% of them may be azure blue like Ming Ya's, but at least he opened his eyes for a moment, Lei Jin was cruel and continued to ignore him.

At this moment, the door was pushed open with an inconspicuous small gap, and Lei Jin deliberately pretended not to see the Phantom Fox Eleven flashing in, and the movement of Apple on it, the sensitive Phantom Fox lived under the house , How could they not notice it? They feel sorry for this silver-white gluttonous baby. A long string of white milk fruits hangs around Eleven's neck. When the sharp claws specially used for hunting are gently hooked, a milk fruit falls into the apple. In his mouth, the milk fruit skin is thin and juicy, and the tender gums of the apple can be squeezed. He sucks the juice with his mouth, and it tastes delicious.

Just in case, there are still shelters on the trees outside. The crow rubbed its wings and began to grind Lei Jin again: "I want a fur hat. The northeast wind blows every year and gives me a headache, a headache."

On the pear tree outside the window, Mingya helped the crow build a spacious and comfortable shack. The crow planned to rely on them not to leave. Lei Jin named him Xiao Hei, Xiao Hei's good friend, and the nest of swallows under the eaves. The four are collectively referred to as the little blues.

It has been three months since autumn, Yanzi Xiaolan is packing up things recently, ready to move his family south at any time, Crow Xiaohei does not want to spend the winter alone, I heard that Lei Jin and the others plan to go to the holy lake in winter, he also wants to go, so he I really want a hat to keep out the cold.

How can there be such a clever and human bird? It's hard not to applaud the idea of a crow pecking at the feathers on its own chest.

After feeding Ruguo on Shiyi, he backed out quietly like when he came. Apple didn't react, and opened his mouth again. Nothing he expected fell in, and he began to scroll to find the next target.

Lei Jin took out the leather slingshot in his hand, and silently gestured towards the crow's head.

"Ah, cheapskate, cheapskate, I only use your big piece of animal skin." The crow groaned extremely sadly, but it didn't stop him from disappearing quickly with his tail between his legs.

The pears outside the window are ripe, exuding a tempting aroma. The pears here are somewhat different from the modern ones. The pears here are alternate in clusters, and the ones on the left are white and sour. They can only be used to make some jam. The ones on the right are greenish, sweet and crunchy, just right to eat. Each pear is as big as two orc fists, so the ones growing on the treetops can’t bear the weight, and hang down slightly. Lei Jin saw that the apples were facing this way After rolling over, he reached out, picked two green pears, wiped them casually on his clothes, and bit them down with a "click", mouth full of saliva. Apple heard the sound of eating, and rolled over at a high speed.

Lei Jin gritted his teeth angrily, why does this baby only move when he is eating.

Apple licked his father's hanging ankle obsequiously, and Lei Jin continued to nibble on his pear, and when he felt that the time was almost up, he said, "Big Apple, open your eyes and show Dad."

Lei Jin stared at it with one eye, and there was no movement after a long while. He thought he had failed again, so he exerted a slight force on his foot, and gently pushed his forehead away. Who knew that a miracle happened at this time, Apple's right eyeball moved obviously. , as if trying to lift the eyelids.

Lei Jin was overjoyed, stepped down from the window sill, grabbed a bunch of milk fruits from the ceramic bowl on the table, knelt down and coaxed, "Big Apple, open your eyes, and Dad will give you something to eat."

Apple smelled the aroma of milk fruit, raised its heavy head, pouted its mouth and was about to bite it, Lei Jin raised it a little higher, to the extent that it could be touched but couldn't be eaten. Apple seemed to be in a hurry. "Gudu" sounded endlessly.

"Big Apple, open your eyes and look at Daddy, even if you open one."

The next moment, Lei Jin was shocked. Apple's eyes really opened this time, but there was only one, the right eye, blood red, with a ruby-like luster, which meant that Mingya was out of control. The baby's eyes are always crystal clear, so it can be clearly seen that there is no shadow of his father in his eyes at all, and the eyes are rolling around, only the bunch of milk fruits.

"Ah..." Apple opened his mouth.

Seeing Apple's unpromising appearance, Lei Jin's anger at being ignored by his son easily defeated Lei Jin's fear. He threw away the milk fruit, grabbed Apple and brought it to his face, shouting: "How lazy are you? If you open one, you open one."

Mingya was marinating bacon in the back of the house. He had kneaded it and was about to spread the salt when he heard Lei Jin’s roar and knew that he was angry with Apple again. came in.

"What's the matter, Lei Jin?" Mingya first picked up Lei Jin who was kneeling on the ground, put him on the window sill, then went to look at the apple, and after just one glance, he was also stunned, "Baby's eyes?"

"That's what you see." Lei Jin stared at the fat apple in disbelief.

Apple could not receive the anger from his father at all, and continued to lie still on the floor, with a single big ruby eye flickering, looking at Lei Jin, then at Mingya, biting his little Tail, showing a hungry expression.

Mingya felt distressed, this is Lei Jin's baby, no matter what it looks like, he likes it, he turned into a beast, lay down on the ground and licked apples.

Apple may have temporarily forgotten the hunger, and was freed from his father's hand again, and seemed very happy, rolling between Mingya's two paws on his own initiative, rubbing his head against Mingya's chin.

Lei Jin couldn't do anything about this troublesome pair of idiot father and son. He put on his shoes, went out the window, untied the horned antelope, stepped up, and left them at home loving each other.

"Lei Jin, don't go far away." Ming Ya chased to the window and shouted.

"Understood, take care of your lazy son." Lei Jin held the hemp rope and turned around to agree.

It's late autumn now, but the weather is warm this year. Lei Jin is still used to wearing thin clothes at home. As soon as he came out, he found that it was really cold, but he didn't bother to go back again. He ran around on the grassland and felt warm. Now, I feel much more at ease. To be honest, the life of the fat kid at the pit table has been too long, and it is really a bit boring.

"Father." Putao ran over from the small wooden bridge over the stream with her little hands open.

Lei Jin bent down, lifted him up, put him in front of him and hugged him, "Where did you go today?"

"I went to the mountain with Daddy to pick a lot of fungus and came back. There is a small dam in the lake. The grass on it is yellow. You can go all the way to the small island. There are many red fruit trees on the island. If the fruit falls into the water, it will die There are little yellow beavers floating up from the underwater caves to eat. Daddy will catch them with straw woven straws. After roasting, the bones are crispy and delicious. Daddy knows a lot of interesting places, and... "Lei Jin smiled and looked at Putao with an adoring face. He said while making gestures. When it comes to playing, no one in his family can compare to Xi Ya. He heard from Roger that he has been running all over the mountains and valleys since he was a child. He knows which tree has a bird's nest on the mountain, and now the children also like to follow him, always full of surprises.

Not long after the lotus pond was dug, Lei Jin erected two swing frames nearby. The thick hemp rope was very strong, and a wide wooden plank was simply tied underneath. He didn't have to play when he was a child. Although the conditions are poor now, he also hopes that his children will be happier. Ambu will occasionally come to live here for two days to play with the children.

After getting in touch for a long time, Lei Jin found that Anbu is actually a very careful person. Mo Ya is really similar to him in this regard. He mentioned it a few days ago that the wooden boards below are too simple, afraid that the children will fall and fall. Lei Jin didn't take it too seriously, he always felt that the place he chose was a thick meadow, and it would be okay to fall occasionally. Unexpectedly, today Anbu brought two large rattan baskets with wide mouths to replace the wooden boards. Gao, don't talk about children, Lei Jin can just sit in it and sleep.

Another year's harvest season has passed, and the cellar is full, so they built a new granary with the leftover wood from building the house, which is specially used to store grain. The corn has not been threshed and has not been put in for the time being. Wheat and rice that had been dried in the field were brought back unhulled so that they could be preserved longer.

On the day when Apple opened his left eye, about a month later, it was winter. Before it was too cold, the orcs decided to go to the lotus pond to dig lotus roots. Anbu was also there, but no one allowed him to go down, so Lei Jin, Luo Jie and Anbu stayed in the corridor, the hot water on the small charcoal stove under their feet was boiling, Lei Jin made a cup of barley tea for everyone, the roasted wheat naturally exudes a charming burnt aroma . Roger and Anbu didn't talk much, and occasionally they would say something, and most of the scene was supported by Lei Jin.

It was the first time for the orcs to dig lotus roots. They were inexperienced. The lotus roots they dug out were all broken and incomplete. They were filled with sludge. They ate them at home anyway. Lei Jin didn’t care about the trouble of washing them. , Apple slept peacefully in his arms.

"When do you plan to hold the ceremony?" Roger asked after blowing on the teacup.

"This winter, tomorrow spring will do." He was a little worried about apples, lazy and greedy, and he couldn't rest assured that he had been away for so long. Immediately after the ceremony was held, they had to leave for the holy lake. It would take almost two months before and after.

"It's better to settle this matter earlier, the children have us." Anbu dispelled his worries.

Mingya jumped up in the water, holding a lively fish in her arms. They didn't sprinkle fry in the lotus pond, maybe they let the water rush in. Mingya smiled and called out to Lei Jin, and the fish was thrown towards him with a silver thread in the sun.

Lei Jin's attention was all on Ming Ya, and he didn't notice how Apple woke up. He smelled the smell of food in his father's hand, and wanted to come over to eat it, but he bumped into it clumsily. Yes, sprinkle him all over the face.

"Apple." Lei Jin hurriedly wiped him dry with a cloth towel beside him, pinched his ears, and cursed, "You little idiot." Fortunately, the tea was no longer hot after sitting for a while.

"Give it to me, you go back to your room and change your clothes." Lei Jin's pants were also wet, and Roger got up to take the apple.

Apple rarely moved, lying on Lei Jin's chest, licking the remaining tea in his hand.

"Don't drink it, it's dirty." Lei Jin held Apple's paw in his left hand to distance himself.

The apple twisted and twisted in his hand, and Lei Jin almost couldn't hold it. He looked at the apple and then looked at him with that red eye, so he stretched out his right hand to cover it. He didn't want to, but his heart was always nervous. Mingya didn't care about that, but the memory of Mingya's adult two in the temple was too tragic, he remembered that scene as soon as he saw Apple's red eyes.

When Lei Jin was distracted, a scene similar to that of a month ago happened. This time it was Apple's left eye that moved, and when it opened, it was azure blue after the rain.

The left eye is azure blue and the right is ruby red. What kind of weird combination is this

Lei Jin paused, then hugged him, and confessed affectionately: "Big Apple, dad won't dislike you for being disabled,"

"Ah..." Apple opened his mouth to respond with dignity.

The corners of Lei Jin's mouth twitched suspiciously, he threw him into Roger's arms, and went back to the room to change his clothes.

"This eye color?" Anbu poked his head over to look at Apple's two completely different eyes. His words were hesitant. Apple was sleeping most of the time, and it was the first time for Anbu to see Apple's eyes clearly at such a close distance.

"A symbol of strength?" Roger took over.

"You know that too?" Anbu looked up in surprise.

"I heard it from the old priest. He told me some ballads passed down from generation to generation. The snow leopards should probably be called blood leopards at first, because they are born with a pair of blood-red eyes. The purer the red and the earlier it appears, it means the stronger the power. Later, the number of snow leopards in the tribe became less and less, let alone red-eyed ones."

An Bu nodded, and continued: "But I always thought it was just a legend, after all, I have never seen it before. I have never seen An Luo's eyes turn red. It seems that our baby must be very powerful in the future."

"That's not necessarily true." Luo Jie is not as optimistic as he is, and Mingya has not yet shown it at the age of fifteen to save Lei Jin, but he is still stupid now.

Although his body was "incomplete", Apple finally opened his eyes. Lei Jin let go of his hanging heart a little, and finally let go of the ceremony, and got it done this winter.
