Salt!
After Lin Mu went back, he took a look at the progress of the house. Seeing the neat stone walls, he had to admire the orc's hands-on ability. Because of the small number of people, except for two people who need to go hunting every day, the rest of the orcs are building houses (except Ka Suo who has not yet transformed).
A dozen orcs were sweating profusely. Lin Mu added a little salt to the boiled water, and served them with Phil.
Lin Mu looked at the large bowl of water in his hand, then at Patrik who was hitting stones, and walked towards him.
The wooden bowl was too big, and Lin Mu occupied both hands. He touched Patrik with his body, and whispered, "Drink water."
"Yeah." Patrik was born with a smile, but he didn't intend to stop the movement of hitting the stone.
"You... Do you want to drink or not?" Lin Mu's voice became even softer.
"Drink." But he still stood there looking at Lin Mu with a smile, without any intention of doing anything.
Phil, who was drinking water next to them and watching them, deliberately said loudly to Cohen next to him: "Cohen, this water is obviously salted, why does it feel sour when I drink it, hahaha."
Lal's words made Lin Mu want to grit his teeth.
"Well, it's quite sour."
Cohen's emotionless words made Lin Mu want to bite him.
"Hey, Lin Mu, why don't you understand, the boss wants you to feed him. Hahaha..." The orcs on the side laughed together.
Lin Mu was so ashamed, why did the two men become the object of ridicule? Why is this scene so familiar? Shouldn't the protagonists be two men and women full of JQ? Looking at the tall, muscular Patrik, is he that shy and timid girl? So Lin Mu became angry from embarrassment, and put the bowl firmly in Patry's hand, "Whether you like to drink or not, hum!" Then he ran away.
Louder laughter came from behind, and Lin Mu mumbled while running, "Damn Patric. Bastard." He ran to the creek in one breath.
The creek ran across the valley, and where they were now was behind the woods where their house was.
"Lin Mu, what's the matter with you?" Phil saw Lin Mu running over panting, his face was full of bright red, Lin Mu's skin was delicate and fair, with a touch of pink in the crystal, Phil thought it was very beautiful.
Lin Mu squatted down and picked up the wild vegetables on the side, "It's nothing. We're about to finish washing the vegetables. They consume a lot of work, and adding new vegetables today will make us tired."
"Yeah, the orcs are the best food. Fortunately, we don't have to help them barbecue. However, Lin Mu, the females in our tribe never cook, and the orcs are reluctant. Why is Patrik willing to let you cook? "
Lin Mu's face, which had just cooled down, turned bright again, and he muttered, "It's none of his business."
"Isn't Lin Mu going to be Patric's female? How could it have nothing to do with him?" Phil was puzzled, and suddenly thought of something, and asked with wide eyes,
"Is Lin Mu shy?" I have to tell you the truth, Phil.
"I'm not shy, and I'm not Patrik's female, I'm our male. I'm a man, and I'm really a man."
"Lin Mu, don't get excited, I know you are a man, and I am also a man. But are you male?" Phil's eyes were full of doubts, "Lin Mu, you are obviously a female, can Lin Mu be a beast? change?"
"No." Lin Mu lowered his head and washed the vegetables depressedly. He didn't understand why it was so difficult to express that he was a man here
"Wow, Lin Mu! Could it be that Patric forced you."
Phil suddenly spoke loudly, and Lin Mu was taken aback, "What is Phil talking about? What kind of coercion?"
"You said you were not Patric's female, so why did you sleep with him, he must have forced you, right?" Phil said in a low voice.
Seeing Phil's appearance of discussing secrets, he was very speechless, but he also whispered to him: "It's not what you think. Although it was forced at first, but... anyway, it's different from what you thought."
"no the same?"
Lin Mu lowered his head and didn't look at him, "Didn't you and Lloyd sleep together without holding the ceremony? And Patric and I didn't do anything."
"Lloyd and I didn't do anything." Phil quickly confessed his innocence, realized that his voice was a bit loud, and blushed and whispered, "Well... Lloyd and I are going to be partners, and so are you and Patric ?"
Lin Mu was silent, thinking about this world without women, is he destined to be with a man? Thinking about it, if that person is Patric, it doesn't seem so unacceptable. Shaking his head, "Why is my head so funny, how can I accept it." Lin Mu didn't want to think about it anymore, anyway, he didn't want to marry yet... Bah, bah, find someone to be a partner, thinking about it I'll talk about it later.
"Lin Mu?"
"What?" Lin Mu raised his head and looked at Phil who called himself in doubt.
Phil pointed to the passing green, "You pulled all the leaves off."
Looking at the vegetable stalk in his hand, Lin Mu smiled embarrassedly. He obviously only wandered for a while, why did this happen? Lin Mu looked at the branch in his hand and was speechless. Catching the approaching white ball, Lin Mu lamented that the number of ball attacks has increased, and his own reaction speed has also been greatly improved, almost becoming a subconscious action.
"Didn't you go to Misha with Ka Suo? Why did you come back by yourself?" Lin Mu's voice just fell when Misha's voice came.
"Qiaoqiu, Qiuqiu, what are you running for?" Misha ran towards this side, but Ka Suo was faster than him.
Seeing Ka Suo's obvious comforting gesture, Lin Mu looked at the panting Misha with a smile: "Why are you bullying Qiuqiu again?" I don't know why Misha likes Qiuqiu so much, doesn't she like it very much? this is the legendary
If you love him, you will bully him? Lin Mu blacked out for his own thoughts.
"How can I bully it, I just want to feed it water, it's true." He said and shook his bottle. It was originally Lin Mu's plastic bottle, and Misha liked it very much, so Lin Mu gave it to him.
Lin Mu looked at the clear water in the bottle, and really couldn't see anything, but Misha was so eccentric, he believed that there must be articles in it, but Lin Mu didn't want to be as knowledgeable as a child.
Lin Mu touched Qiuqiu's head comfortingly, and Ka Suo also licked Qiuqiu comfortingly.
"Don't be sad, Qiuqiu. If your master doesn't help you, I will help you. How about this, we won't play with Misha in the future."
The small white paws covered Ka Suo's face, but there was no pain as before, and Ka Suo was satisfied.
Misha was also embarrassed, he just wanted to play with Qiuqiu, and didn't intend to bully him. So Misha decided to admit his mistakes. Although he was very reluctant, he still took out the treasure he had just discovered.
"Qiaoqiu is here for you. I can ask Lin Mu to make a hole for you to put it on. I'm really reluctant to give you such a beautiful thing."
Qiuqiu didn't move much, but Ka Suo was not polite, and immediately held it in his mouth to give it to Qiuqiu.
"Bah bah..." Ka Suo's tongue spit out as soon as it touched the thing, "What is it, it's uncomfortable."
Lin Mu looked at the palm-sized transparent crystal thrown on the ground in surprise, like a crystal, but Lin Mu felt that it must not be a crystal, because it was so familiar.
"Ka Suo, why did you throw my baby on the ground?" Misha said to pick it up, but Lin Mu picked it up before him.
Misha looked at Lin Mu suspiciously.
Lin Mu scratched off a little powder with his nails, and licked it as if to prove it, salty!
"Misha, where did you find this?" Lin Mu grabbed Misha's arm and asked, his voice full of surprise.
Misha felt that Lin Mu's eyes were frighteningly bright, and said dumbly, "Yes... I found them in my secret base."
"Take me there quickly." With such a large piece of salt crystallized, there must be a lot of salt there.
Misha was a little reluctant, it was her secret base, and she discovered it by herself. He didn't want to take anyone else with him.
Lin Mu saw Misha's reluctance, he held the crystal and asked, "Do you know what this is?"
Phil was also very curious about what was in Lin Mu's hand, which made Lin Mu so excited. He looked at it carefully and found it very familiar. He got it: "Salt?! Lin Mu, is that salt?"
"Yeah!" Lin Mu lost his eyes with a smile, and finally found the salt, so he had to go to see it right away.
"Salt?" Misha couldn't believe that the beautiful baby was the salt they needed most. Don't blame Misha for not being able to see it. Before Lin Mu didn't come, he didn't eat salt, and after Lin Mu came, he just added a little finely ground salt. Naturally, he didn't know that these crystals were the salt they wanted.
"I'll take you there right away!" If it was all salt, they would have salt too, and they would no longer have to live a life of raw hair and blood, and could eat that kind of salty food every day. How happy they would be in those days.
Lin Mu, Phil and the others followed Misha through a very tortuous road before arriving at Misha's secret base.
Seeing the unusually hidden cave entrance in front of him, Lin Mu asked Misha in disbelief, "How did you find this place?" The journey is so tortuous and the cave is so hidden, it's good that Lin Mu didn't get lost.
Misha proudly raised her chin, "Hey, that's because I'm good." Thinking that she found the salt, her pride doubled, "Come in with me." After speaking, she led people in with her head held high .
The curious Ka Suo and Qiuqiu had long been waiting impatiently. When Misha said to go in, the two little ones rushed in quickly, leaving only their own afterimages.
Seeing the two of them running in quickly, Misha stopped showing off and chased after them shouting, "Wait for me, I found this here. You two guys." Then Phil and Lin Mu followed walk slowly.
It seems to be a very deep cave, but instead of being as dark as they imagined, the cave is filled with soft light, and this light does not come in from any crack, but the light coming from the mountain wall. glow.
"It's so beautiful, Lin Mu, I'm not mistaken, the stone wall is shining."
Lin Mu touched the glowing stone under his hand and replied to Phil, "You read that right, the stone is glowing."
Lin Mu carefully observed the stone wall, not all the stones were glowing, only the one with a layer of white on the surface, Lin Mu didn't know what it was, so he pried off a small piece with the knife he carried with him. Holding it in his hand, just as he thought, the stone in his hand emitted a soft white light.
"It's amazing, the stone is glowing. Lin Mu, do you know why?"
Lin Mu chuckled, a little treacherously, "I don't know why it glows, but I know we have a light, a pure natural light. Make a long strip and it can be used as an electric rod." Finding natural lighting The objects made Lin Mu very excited, imagining how to make full use of these luminous stones after the house was built, while walking towards his destination. The lamp is just the icing on the cake, and the salt is the timely help!
Following Misha's voice, the two turned a corner and saw the destination they were looking for. They were amazed at what they saw. This is a very large cave, and there is a circular water pool with a diameter of almost three meters in the middle of the cave. To their surprise, the soft light hits the bright and visible "ice surface", and the entire cave floor is like this. A thick "ice". Lin Mu didn't know how to form this scene, but this was not what he wanted to consider.
"Salt, these are all salt!" Lin Mu felt that he wanted to cry at this moment. This is the wound in the hearts of those wandering beasts, those wandering beasts who desperately want to prove that they have not been abandoned by God. Lin Mu smiled and said to Phil with red eyes: "We also have salt, Phil our life
Life will definitely be better. "
"I want to believe you." Phil didn't know why Lin Mu had such a big reaction. He knew that those orcs were short of salt, and he knew that all tribes didn't allow wandering beasts to get salt. He only knew that salt was necessary, but he didn't know what salt meant to those orcs.
Misha, who was skating, saw them coming, "Lin Mu, Phil, come and see, I am the salt I found here."
Lin Mu calmed down and walked to the edge of the pool. He looked at the water, which was crystal clear, "Could this be a salt spring?" Lin Mu thought of a place called the Dead Sea in the previous world, because of its high density. , people will not sink in the water.
He thought for a while, and threw the stone in his hand into the pool.
"Wow, the stone didn't sink." Misha shouted in surprise.
With a "plop", Ka Suo jumped into the pool. He immediately felt the strangeness of the pond water, there was a force in the water holding him from sinking, so he turned over happily, floating leisurely with his belly up.
Ka Suo shouted happily, "It's so fun here! I can't sink, haha, I'm floating." It's a pity that there is no translation.
Lin Mu smiled and pushed the water in the pool with his hand, and Ka Suo's body shook.
"It's so fun, I want to go down too." Seeing Ka Suo's comfortable appearance, Misha started to feel itchy, and wanted to go down to play too.
Lin Mu stopped and said, "Forget it now. If you go down, you'll have to take a shower after you come out. It's almost noon, so let's go back quickly."
Just as Lin Mu was about to get up, he heard Ka Suo's screams. Seeing that Ka Suo was having a good time, Qiuqiu hit Ka Suo's stomach like a white cannonball, causing Ka Suo to whine in pain.
"Hahahaha..." There was a cheerful laughter in the cave. Although it is unkind to base one's own happiness on the suffering of others, who made the two of them so happy. But thinking of one of them willing to fight and the other willing to suffer, Lin Mu felt that life was infinitely better and there were many joys.
He used a knife to chisel two large chunks of salt by the pool, and took a closer look at the secret situation of the entrance of the cave when he went out. Although it looked quite hidden, Lin Mu decided to think of a good way with Patrik, so as not to It was robbed by outsiders.
Glancing at the cave behind him, he felt terrified at the thought of Misha wandering around in such a hidden place by himself, and he looked at Misha seriously, "Misha, although it is very happy that you found the salt, but I hope you won't be so reckless in the future. If you encounter danger, you will be in trouble. Remember, if you come out to play in the future, you must be accompanied by someone. "
"I know. I won't do it in the future." Knowing that Lin Mu was doing it for his own good, Misha nodded in agreement.
Lin Mu touched Misha's head, "You have to be obedient, if you get hurt, Matt will be sad."
