Abduction of the Orcs

Holding a glass of clear water, Ah Ning peeked at the two men sitting at the table out of the corner of his eyes. They spoke slowly, and Ah Ning, who raised his ears, could barely understand a few words. It seemed that a man was saying just now, he was injured. It seems that you are talking about him now, right?

"is it him?"

"Ah."

"#%what to do?"

"I'll @#he."

Unable to understand a few key words, Aning, who was worried about his future, rubbed the cup in his hand in a daze.

It wasn't until the man took the cup away from his hand that he came to his senses.

"Iru?"

"Let's go." The man took Aning's hand and led him out of the patriarch's house.

"Ah? Oh." Aning hurriedly nodded goodbye to the patriarch who was smiling at him, and hurriedly followed the man's footsteps.

As soon as he left the house, Aning felt that there were more people on the road than before. I wonder if it was his illusion, but Aning always felt that their eyes kept sweeping back and forth on him.

Seeing the awkwardness, Aning tightened his fingers and squeezed the man's fingers.

The man looks down.

"Where are you going?" Aning asked in a low voice, why did he feel that the ears of the people around him were pricked up, as if they could hear them all.

"Go home." The man replied.

"Red leaf tree?"

"Ah."

Perhaps it is because most of the men here are very tall and strong, and the houses here are also built very tall, and they all have a wide yard, and the distance between houses is also very far, even in the most densely populated place in the center of the village. , The distance between the two courtyards is at least 20 meters.

The tall men walked very fast, in a hurry, and Aning often saw them appear at the end of the road, and in the blink of an eye, they were behind him.

Fortunately for Aning, those men who were about the same size as him had about the same speed as him.

But he always felt that there was something weird there, what exactly was it, Ah Ning thought for a long time, but couldn't catch the flash of light that flashed through his mind, so he put the question behind his mind, and he would always find the answer anyway.

Walking out of the densest part of the village, and walking a few hundred meters, Aning looked around, and the distance between the houses here has reached more than 50 meters.

He tugged at the man's hand.

"Yilu, are there many people in your tribe?"

"... almost 1000 people."

"Do you want to see it all?" Ah Ning raised his head, the sunlight reflected into his eyes, like the stars appearing in the deep night, extremely bright.

"...Don't." The man suffocated for breath at first, then gave a fierce look to the more and more people around him, and immediately bent down to pick up Aning, ignoring his reflexive struggle, hugged him tightly and ran towards his home.

When Ah Ning came to his senses and calmed down, the man had already arrived at his door and wanted to put him down.

The man's house is similar to other houses, or worse than other houses, half a circle of dilapidated wooden railings that are barely a fence, a tree with red leaves, a yard full of weeds, Aning who doesn't know the values ​​​​of this world He glanced at the man sympathetically, but luckily the house looked solid.

The man seemed a little shy. He pushed open the unlocked door and pulled Aning into his house.

Aning didn't notice the man's expression. He was shocked by the extremely simple structure of the house. The house is a big square. There is a piece of animal skin, and there are several large pots at the foot of the bed; on the west wall, a wooden cabinet, with a few bowls and chopsticks on the upper shelf, and a closed large cabinet below, which should be used for clothes; on the east wall, a wooden cabinet In the separated kitchen, there is an earthen pit with a large pot on it. There are some jars of spices on it, and an unknown thing is hung on the window in the same direction as the door. There are several bundles of firewood piled between the corner of the wall and the earthen pit.

He's really poor, isn't he, isn't he, isn't he!

Looking at the thick layer of dust on the table in the middle of the house, the corners of Aning's eyes twitched. He sneezed and choked on the dust.

"It's so dirty, do you have any clothes?" Aning rubbed her nose and asked the man who seemed a little uneasy.

"Yes!" The man rushed to the side of the wooden cabinet very quickly, opened the cabinet, and took out a piece of yarn-woven clothes. The rest seemed to be animal fur clothes.

Uh, looking up at the man holding the clothes in front of him, Aning found that he seemed to have used the wrong word, "It's not clothes, it's 'cloth', the 'cloth' that wipes the house and the table clean."

"Cloth." The man also noticed it.

"Bu, do you have it?" Ah Ning repeated and asked.

"Yes, I'll give you the clothes." The man nodded, as if he wanted to put the clothes in Aning's hands.

"I have clothes." Ah Ning tugged on the clothes on his body. The men carried him all the way, and the clothes were clean.

"Here you are." The man said stubbornly.

Aning frowned in distress, but after thinking about it, he accepted the unwashed clothes.

"Let's put it there first, take a shower at night and change it."

The man's eyes lit up, as if he was afraid of Ah Ning's repentance, he put the clothes back into the cabinet faster than before.

"Okay, let's clean the house first." Aning rolled up his sleeves, "Where can I fetch water?"

"Outside." The man held Aning's wrist and led him to the back of the house.

Behind it is a large area of ​​weeds, with a man knee-high, and a small road in the middle, which seems to be walked by a man, and a well at the end of the road.

"'Water well'!?" Ah Ning exclaimed.

"well."

"Did you dig it?"

"Win." The man replied with some pride.

"win?"

"... There are many people who want this well, I beat them all... don't move... this is the winner's prize...something..." The man struggled.

"Pfft," Ah Ning was amused by the man's tangled expression. After laughing for a while, he thought for a while and said, "You defeated everyone who wanted this well. Is this the prize you won?"

"Hmm." The man nodded.

After fetching water, the man entered the house with a large wooden bucket, while Aning picked up a broom from the back of the house.

The house that had not been cleaned for more than a month was very dusty. Aning, who was sweeping the floor, choked on the dust from time to time, and was finally kicked out of the house by the man.

Standing by the door, Aning stared wide-eyed at the flying dust in the room, but within a few minutes, the man came out covered in ashes.

"All right."

"Heh cough," Ah Ning couldn't control his smile. He stretched out his hand and wiped the black marks on the man's face with his fingers. "Just wash your face, it's like big...it's all dust." I found myself saying no again. Aning, who understood the words, was surprised to see his fingers on the man's face, and the man—A Ning's face was flushed—seemed a little surprised, but his face was rubbing against his fingers.

Quickly withdrew his hand, Aning put his hands behind his back, "Go and wash your face." Turning around, pretending that he didn't see the man's disappointed expression.

Hearing the footsteps of the man leaving, Ah Ning looked down at his fingers and rubbed them lightly. His skin was smooth.

After a while, the man returned to the house, and Ah Ning was standing on the bed and pulling the animal skin away, trying to shake.

The bed is made of a whole big tree, about three meters long and wide, very thick, so the animal skin on the bed is also quite heavy. Aning pulled it apart with great effort, and after shaking it for a few seconds, he felt heavy , When the man came in, his eyes glowed.

"Yilu, shake the animal skirt." Aning picked up the animal skin and jumped off the bed.

"It's a quilt." The man said, lifting the animal skin quilt easily.

"Shake the quilt and let it bask in the sun."

Aning tightened the rag, followed the man to the yard, and wiped the drying rack several times.

The man shook the animal skin quilt vigorously, and the fine dust bouncing off the quilt shone brightly in the sunlight, making Aning feel the urge to sneeze.

"Wait until it's dry and hang it up."

Aning made a confession, went back to the house, and continued to immerse himself in cleaning, completely unaware that his attitude had changed subtly from the previous days.

With Ah Ning working hard and assigning labor-intensive tasks to the men from time to time, he finally cleaned the house that had no owner for more than half a month.

The room with the windows open for ventilation is bright and tidy, and it makes people feel comfortable just looking at it.

Ah, Ah Ning sighed happily, wiped the sweat off his forehead, pressed his stomach, and looked at the man who was hanging the cleaned wipes on the drying rack.

So hungry.

The man obviously accepted the performance well. When he saw Aning, he took the initiative to go into the stove to collect firewood to start the fire.

"Yilu, what is this?" Aning leaned over and asked, pointing to the jars on the stove.

"Salt, honey, vinegar, pepper..."

Ah Ning blinked, and after making sure that none of the syllables matched the names of the seasonings he knew, he simply licked them with his fingers and matched them one by one.

Then he found that honey was very delicious.

"Yilu, the honey is delicious." Aning licked his fingers and looked down at the man.

Against the backdrop of the flames, Aning, whose eyes were shining with flames, looked like he was begging for food in the eyes of the man. The corner of the man's mouth was slightly curved, and he reached out to stroke Aning's hair, and handed him the jar of honey .

"Eat." The hoarse voice made Aning blush. He held the jar in embarrassment and scratched the hair that the man had touched.

"No, it's time to eat." He put the jar back to its original place, took the empty jar, and quickly walked away from the stove. The fire ignited in this hot day, which made him flustered.

Aning patted his hot cheeks with one hand, it was because of the hot weather, and after patting again, he found that his face was a little sticky, probably from sweating just now, Ah Ning sniffed his clothes again, uh , he wants to take a bath.

After dinner, I asked Yiru where to take a bath.

After Ah Ning decided what to do after the meal, he imitated the man's action just now, put the rope and put the bucket to bring up the water.

He exerted all his energy and sweated again before he brought up half the bucket of water. Aning looked at the half-full bucket of water and felt extremely sad. He felt that he could carry two buckets of water, why? Why can't he even pump half a bucket here!

Sighing, Ah Ning stretched out his hand to pick up the bucket, his arms sank, and he was almost ashamed that he couldn't even pick up the bucket.

God, why is a wooden barrel so heavy? He knows why he can't fill half of the barrel. This wooden barrel is enough for his bucket of water.

Are normal solid wood things so heavy!

Aning wondered if the gravitational force here is greater than that of the earth, but he didn't feel any heaviness in his body. After thinking for a moment, Aning quickly decided to throw this problem to the back of his mind. He is not a physicist. Yes, these questions are too much for him.

There are a lot of weeds in the yard. Aning holds the water jar and walks slowly around the house towards the gate. The house here does not have a back door, which makes him a little confused. It is not very troublesome to go into the backyard to fetch water.

Aning put the water jug ​​on the stove, and watched the man take a large piece of gray-black meat from the window sill?It should be meat.

"Yilu, drink water," Aning pushed the jar to the man's hand, and poked the piece of meat curiously, "Yilu, how do you want to eat it?" He turned his head and looked at the man who was gulping water.

"cook."

Boiled meat?

"Are there no 'vegetables'?" Aning asked, "Is there no other food besides meat?" Eating like this will definitely cause constipation!

"Yes." The man thought about it, took out the firewood that had just been put in the fire, let the fire go out, then picked up a large pot with one hand, and took Aning's wrist with the other, and walked out of the house.

Ah Ning quickly followed the man, they didn't enter the yard, but walked towards the mountain.

After walking for a while, Aning was picked up by a man who seemed to think he was walking slowly. Having experienced this a few times, Aning supported the man's shoulder without struggling, and took the jar from the man's hand to hug him in arms.

Obviously, what the man did was correct, and within a few minutes, they reached the foot of the mountain.

Ah Ning looked at the distance between the red leaf tree and the foot of the mountain, and sighed inwardly with a little inferiority complex. They are both men, so is it necessary to bully people like this? If he came over, it would take half an hour anyway.

"Vegetables." The man pulled Aning, who was a little dazed, to recognize the vegetables.

"Vegetables, can you eat them?" Aning, who threw his low self-esteem to the west, was happy to know a few new foods.

"Hmm." The man squatted on the ground, scratched the roots with his fingernails, and cut off the vegetables. Aning watched the man cut several green vegetables in succession, and then identified several edible plants, and picked a few. pieces of fruit.

People on this planet seldom eat wild vegetables. They are more used to taking meat as their staple food, and wild vegetables are just side dishes. Therefore, Aning can see three or five wild vegetables when he walks two steps.

After picking vegetables and fruits, the man picked up Ah Ning again and ran home.

Aning, who was already used to it, was sucking the sweat from the fruit, while staring at the trees passing by with wide eyes, expressing admiration for the man's speed.

"Yilu, you run so fast." Aning who was standing on the ground praised.

"Not the fastest speed." The man smiled and stroked Aning's hair.

In the future, I must cook by myself. This is what Ah Ning felt when he ate the man's white boiled meat and mixed vegetables.

Obviously the barbecue is delicious.

He forced himself to swallow the meat, but fortunately, the technical content of mixing vegetables was not high. After eating half a plate of some salty vegetables, Ah Ning expressed that he couldn't eat any more.

He was holding a piece of fruit, sucking the juice, and watched the man sweep away the food on the table, but the speed of eating vegetables was obviously a few seconds slower than eating meat.

Remember to cook less vegetables, Ah Ning silently opened the fruit that had sucked up the juice, and followed the man into the yard.

"No need." The man stopped Aning from helping, and fetched water to wash the dishes and jars by himself.

Ah Ning squatted next to the man, watching the man go to the well to pick a papaya-like food and clean the dishes and jars.

"Did you grow it?" Aning pointed to the papaya-like plant.

"No." The man shook his head and told Aning the name of the plant.

Aning twisted the plant. He didn't understand the meaning of the plant's name, so he took it for a papaya.

"Iru, I want to take a shower, I'm so dirty."

The movement of the man's hands paused, he glanced at Aning who was twisting the papaya, and then lowered his head to work again, "Okay, let's go together."

"Hmm." Aning, who didn't notice the man peeking at him at all, was studying how hard it would take to unscrew the papaya. Of course, he didn't notice that the man's working speed accelerated by more than half after hearing his response.
