Orcs through the age

When the High Priest came to discuss with us and asked You Xi, the patriarch of the Shui Tribe, to stay at our house temporarily, I was sitting in the hall making my new crossbow.

This time, Hongda did not know where to find a kind of wood chip with strong elasticity and high toughness. He originally brought it back for children to play with. Like a crossbow, its power is actually not bad.

In order to prevent them from bouncing back and forth and hurting each other, Hongda finally asked Hongda to change their slingshots, and even their ammunition was replaced with small mud pellets mixed with leaves.However, I asked Hongda to give me the rest of the wood that Hongda brought back, especially the branches of that tree. I tried it, and it was very flexible and extremely solid. It won't break easily either.

In the beginning, whether it was making bows and arrows for myself or the bows and arrows of the clan, even Luo Lei’s crossbow was made of bamboo near the tribe, horns, cowhide and other composites.Although I still have a certain understanding of the selection of wood for bows and arrows, in the past when I made bows and arrows, I bought wood directly. If I were to look at the trees, I really don’t know many trees, especially how woody the trees here are. I don't have time to learn about them one by one. I just have a little understanding of the ones I use in my usual work. It doesn't help much in making more powerful bows and arrows.

Now that I think about it, I spend most of my time on the construction of the clan, but I don't have much time to do things that interest me.

These few days I didn't do anything in the clan, I observed different woods every day, but I got this kind of wood for making good bows from Hongda.I've been busy cooking ox glue these days, making new bows and arrows, and even thinking about making another good bow out of this wood.

So when the High Priest came to the house and sat down in the hall to talk to Raleigh, I was still sitting in the hall rubbing the ox-hide rope.

When Luo Lei listened to what the high priest said, he looked back at me a few times in embarrassment. I looked at him, squinted my eyes at him, and said nothing.

The high priest took a special look at me when he went out, and asked me, "What are you doing again?"

I looked up at him, smiled, and didn't speak to him.

He stood there looking at me, then at Raleigh, and finally went away.

When Luo Lei said that he had agreed with You Xi to stay at our house, I looked at him and didn't say anything for a long time, but finally smiled.

He seemed a little scared, and told me repeatedly that he didn't mean that.

It's just that I looked at him, didn't say anything, and ignored him.

When it was time to go hunting, he almost ran away.

I really want to defend this as my home, and I don't want anyone, especially that Youxi, to live here.But actually, with them, I'm not sure this is my home.

According to the principle of public ownership, these houses are only recognized by the clan for the patriarch and his partner to live in. Although it was my idea to build them, since I did not build them alone, I have no right to do so in any sense. Call for this house.So I didn't say much.I also understand the meaning of the high priest, and I believe that Luo Lei also understands it. I even started to wonder if he also has the same idea, or he also thinks that my influence on this tribe is too great, even surpassing him?So it made him uneasy too.

But my concession does not mean that I am easy to bully.If I really want these, I can use the means to get them.I believe that in terms of means, they may not be like me.As long as I insist on doing nothing and living here, even though Youxi may also live in in the end, I have a way to win.

It's just that I'm tired too.Ever since this happened, I've been feeling tired.

Maybe it's correct to say that I've been tired since I started getting involved with more and more people here.However, for Luo Lei's expectation, I still persisted.

Now, even Rolley wears me out.Although we don't live in the same bed these days, but we have slept together in the same bed for so many years, I still don't know what he is thinking.

He clearly knows that I have repeatedly reiterated to him that I will never accept a third person, no matter whose idea it is.He also knows that I will never have any understanding and compromise on this matter.He still didn't know what he was hesitating about.

I'm tired.Even though he is guarding me every night, he must go out during the day if it is not for hunting or something, and he will never leave my side for half a step, and even looks at me with some sadness.

But I'm still tired.No one will know what others are thinking, or what hesitating.If he didn't tell me, I would never know what he was thinking, afraid and worried about now.I know he's scared and worried about something, but that's not why he can offend my taboo.If he has any worries and fears, if he can tell me, I can accept it, but if he doesn't tell me, then I would rather act according to my own wishes.

Instead of trying to achieve the victories that will wear you down the more we know women do, it's better to find a life that makes you happier.

Not long after Luo Lei went out, I have put the things I need in the car. There are not many things I need, my tools and tents that may be used, some dry food and herbs that I made myself. This is probably what I learned the most from the high priest here, because I am also somewhat interested in this. I tied my quilt and finished clothes with a large piece of animal hide and put them behind the bullock cart, and as Arnold I also put the two clay pots and tools that I already had, and I don't want other things.

Although there are still many fruits of my labor in the house, I really don't need them anymore.

In the past, no matter how sad I was, I never thought of leaving my father and mother, but now, I am very fortunate that there are no parents here, and there are not many entanglements here. If the people here are nothing more than this, then I can continue to be free.

It is feasible to take Rona to walk with me. After all, Rona is almost nine years old. Regardless of his physical fitness or his own ability, he can live with me when he goes out.But it is really unrealistic to take Ari with me. Ari is only four years old, and I take him with me to eat and sleep outside, and I am not a person who can take care of others carefully. After all, although for them , maybe I should be like my mother, but in fact I can't do it.I was worried about taking him out, he might get sick from fatigue and lack of a place to live, he wouldn't eat well, he might have an accident because none of us could afford to look after him.They stay here, even Luo Lei needs to take good care of them.After all, they were adopted children under Roy's name.

A few days in advance, I also told them that if I leave, they will live with their father well. If there is any problem, they can go to Abba Simmu and Ah Man, and they will help. I told Ah Man that if I can't take care of these two children, please ask them to take care of them more, and the clan will provide them with food. He only needs to take care of them to have a place to live and live a stable life.Although he didn't understand, Ah Man still nodded.I believe that Luo Lei will not ignore these two children.Even the high priest must understand the significance of these two children here with Luo Lei.

Even so, after I packed up my things, Ari still stared at me and asked me when he heard that I might be leaving: "Where is Ah going? Ari is going too."

I laughed: "You can't go, you are too young. When you grow up, you can go by yourself."

What I want is to see a wider world and see more things in this world.Looking at the wider world may be the dream of many people in the 21st century. In the past, I also thought about quitting my job and traveling the world, but finally gave up for various reasons.After I got here, I also thought that if my life gets better, I will no longer be afraid and ignorant of this world. When I have a certain amount of power, I will go to see this world. After all, this world can take resources at will Traveling around the world may be easier, if not more dangerous, than in the 21st century.It's just that so many things happened later, and I started to settle here again. For so many years, I never left, and I just nestled in this corner.Now it's my opportunity.Just traveling the world with a baby is a dangerous and uncertain world, unless I'm crazy.

Because I didn't let him go, Ari curled his lips and cried for his brother to hug him.

Rona looked at me for a while and said nothing.

I know he is a sensible child and will definitely take good care of his younger brother, so I let them play by themselves.

Although Ari cried and refused to leave, but because Rona held him, he still took him away.

I went to the cowshed in the backyard and put the two cows, one big and one small, which I had picked out a long time ago, into the bullock cart. This is a cow I caught with a trap when I went hunting with Roy. and the calf following the cow.The mother and calf have never left, but the calf has grown almost to the height of the cow.When I caught them two years ago, I asked Roy to put nose rings on them, so they are considered to be relatively well-behaved now, and I also have credit for catching them, so I have a reason to take them away.

When I put away the half-finished things in my work room and piled them up beside the pond at the door to burn them, looking at the blazing flames, for some reason, I felt a strange sense of comfort in my heart, and even felt that I was I breathed a sigh of relief.

When Luo Lei rushed back from the outside, the things were almost burnt.

I glanced at him, smiled, didn't say anything, turned around and went to the door to pull the harnessed ox cart.

Luo Lei stretched out his hand to grab my shoulder, and I hit it with the handle of the wooden fork in my hand, and there was a "snap" sound. I think it must be very painful, so his hand was obviously red and swollen. His hand was also thrown away.

But he didn't seem to feel it, so he stretched out his hand again, and even walked up to me, as if he wanted to grab me from the front.

But I didn't give him a chance. The fork in my hand was made of iron wood for me. That was our best time.That's when I started to have some interest in him.When I point this fork at him, as long as he takes a step forward, he will have a few more holes in his body.

He didn't seem to be afraid of this, but more like sad. He looked at me and stretched out his hand to me, as if he wanted me to respond.

I looked at him and suddenly thought why is he so interesting?I even wanted to laugh, laugh out loud, but I just looked at him: "I'm leaving. It doesn't mean anything to me to kill you. I have something I want to do. You can develop your tribe well in the future."

His throat seemed to move, and he seemed to be trying to say something.

The high priest brought Bei Luo and the others also came over, standing at the door and looking at us, even Youxi from the Shuizu and his two standing attendants stood with them, making me look like a different kind.

I looked at Bei Luo and Gunan who were standing behind the high priest, and then at the high priest who didn't know what he was thinking while looking at me. I raised my eyebrows, "I'm leaving."
