After the patriarch Ya finished speaking, he took the two orcs and left.

Bai Wu's family stood outside the nest, each other's expressions were serious.

Bai Wu sat down on the wooden pier by the firepit, and said in a muffled voice, "You can scold me if you want, anyway, my decision will not change."

Chuan patted him on the back, "Don't change it! If you don't change it, where can you find food?"

"There are not many places with food. After a while, the food I planted will grow, and there is no need to collect it."

Chuan patted him again, and let out a loud, muffled sound, "Are you drinking the wind during this time?!"

Bai Wu shrank her neck, "There is also a lot of food in the barren hills outside the tribe, I can support myself."

"Chuan." Mo called to stop his partner, "Don't hit the child."

"Don't beat me up, it's all your pet, what should I do now? Are you not in a hurry at all?"

"Apart from anything else, Wu is a bloody sub-orc."

Mo was beaten before he could finish his sentence, Chuan's slap on his back was much louder than that on Bai Wu.

Bai Wu was startled, and sat a little further away silently.

Mo Xiaoxiao pulled Chuan's hand down and rubbed his palm.

Chuan raised his head and asked seriously: "Tell me, what should we do now? Wu, are you really determined to fight against the clan?"

"I don't want to fight against the patriarch. It's the best place. It's quiet, safe, big and has a good view."

"Then how do you support yourself? Don't talk about a period of time, just this period of time. If you are determined not to change, and Father and Yafu don't pay for your decision, can you really find enough food from the wild to support yourself?"

"I really can."

If there was nothing wrong with his health, he would have reached the age when he should support himself by now.

After Chuan asked, he stopped talking and nodded, fully respecting his opinion.

Mo didn't even have time to help.

The next day, news spread that Bai Wu wanted to build a house on the other side of the mountain where the priest lived and that he refused to listen to the advice of the patriarch and was punished.

The clansmen talked about him all day long.

When my cousin Da heard the news, he came to him with a basket of wild fruits, "Wu, you really don't want to follow the tribe to collect them?"

"Well, my father and my father also agreed."

Da looked at him with admiration, "The patriarch is so fierce, how dare you fight against him?"

"..." Bai Wu asked, "You came to see me, what's the matter?"

"It's nothing, I'm just asking you if this is true." Da scratched his head, "If you have no place to collect, follow me to hunt over there. That is not a place for the tribe to develop, and it does not violate the order of the patriarch. "

"No. I'm clumsy, which will affect your hunting. I've been walking along the river for the past few days, and I can collect some food. If there is more food, I will plant it, and I won't be hungry."

Da Da tried to persuade him, but failed, so he had to go with Bai Wu.

Other sub-orcs of the same age in the tribe also came over and persuaded Bai Wu to follow them to collect. At worst, they would not go to the places developed by the tribe to collect. They also said that after a few days the patriarch would not be so angry, and they should help to persuade the patriarch.

Bai Wu didn't expect this group of sub-orcs to be so loyal. After thanking everyone, he still refused.

He kept his word and didn't want to do anything sneaky.

It is very rare for a sub-orc to speak to build a nest.

In particular, the place where the nest was built was near the mountain where the priest lived.

For a while, apart from voices of sympathy and encouragement, there were also some rumors.

Some people speculated whether Bai Wu fell in love with the priest, so he built a nest under the mountain where the priest lived, just to get close to the priest.

The gossip reached its peak when the priest spoke to prevent Baiwu from building a nest.

After hearing the news, Kishi ran back to the nest immediately, and shouted at Bai Wu who was planting wild onions: "Wu! The priest said that you are not allowed to stop you from building a nest! You are going to be fine!"

Bai Wu straightened her waist and wiped her sweat, "Who did the priest tell you?"

"Patriarch. I guess you're going to be fine."

"It's okay, I won't go hunting in the places developed by the clan."

Kishi came over and asked with a frown, "Why?"

"I thought about it. The patriarch has his reasons. I don't agree with it, but I respect his decision."

"Then there's no need to persist in this kind of place, why don't you wait for the patriarch to come to you to apologize?"

"No. I promised, and I will keep it."

Shore is in a hurry.

When eating together at night, An asked the two fathers to persuade Bai Wu.

The two fathers only said that they respect Bai Wu's decision.

Kishi sighed helplessly, took a spoonful of food and stuffed it into his mouth, and said vaguely: "I don't quite understand what you are insisting on."

Bai Wu smiled, "Probably you have to obey what you say."

Bai Wu didn't want to go out to collect with the sub-orc people of the tribe anymore, and he didn't want to go to the places where the tribe opened up.

After persisting for a few days, Ya came to him in person.

The young orc patriarch gave him a cold look, "My lord priest has spoken, and the previous punishment against you will be withdrawn, but you'd better not let me know that you disturbed my lord priest, otherwise I won't forgive you even if you are a sub-orc." about you."

Bai Wu looked at him with a slightly helpless expression, "Why should I bother Mr. Priest? What are you worried about?"

Bai Wu didn't bother to pay attention to the rumors outside, so he went to ask Da, who also wanted to build a nest, if he wanted to collect stones, where could he collect them.

Da told him that if people in the tribe want to build nests, they usually go to a quarry in Baishan, where there are many hard stones. In addition to using the stones there to build nests, they often go there to find stones and grind them into stone knives. Stone Hammer, Stone Axe, etc.

Bai Wu asked, "Aside from there, is there any other place?"

Da was surprised, "You still abide by the agreement not to go to the place developed by the tribe? Didn't the patriarch say that the punishment should be abolished?"

"Just tell me if there is?"

"Yes, there is. There is a large stone forest not far from the tribe. There are not many people going there, and it is not a place for the tribe to develop. But there are mostly large stones, which are difficult to knock down."

"Where is the exact location?"

"It's not far away. It's just the river beach upstream of the river. I'll take you to see it."

It's nothing to worry about, so he immediately urged Bai Wu to take the basket and take him over to have a look.

Bai Wu followed him along the river and flew upstream.

The river in front of their tribe is a large river more than ten meters wide.

The river twists and turns, flows out of the mountains, and follows the river through the forest.

They followed the river, flapped their wings and flew upstream, and came to a river beach.

The river beach was covered with knee-high weeds, which half-buried the stones larger than the table.

Bai Wu looked around, there was a long stretch of river beach, at least a few thousand big rocks, it was enough for him no matter what.

Da Dao: "It seems that this place used to be our tribe's quarrying point. We ran out of suitable stones, so we had to go further to find them. If you go further and bypass this mountain, there is still a long way to go. Shitan, it’s enough for you, but it’s not fun.”

Bai Wu knelt down and tapped lightly on the big rock underneath, her hands were cold and hard, smooth to the touch.

He looked down.

There are some small pebbles under the big stones, all round and white, very beautiful, but the stones of moderate size are almost invisible.

He searched around for a while, before he managed to find a stone a little bigger than his fist.

The stone flipped in his palm, and he adjusted a suitable angle, holding the small stone and smashing it hard on the big one.

"boom--"

Startled, he turned around abruptly.

The two stones collided, almost sparking, and the huge reaction force caused pain in Bai Wu's palm.

There are only light white marks on the two stones at the bottom.

Bai Wu threw away the stone in his hand, shook his hand, his palm was red.

Da strode over, "Are your hands hurt?"

"No." Bai Wu frowned, "This rock is really hard to mine."

"Let me see."

Holding the stone he dropped, he squatted down and slammed the big stone a few times.

The loud sound of "bang bang bang" made Bai Wu subconsciously take a small step back.

"Broken." Da opened his hand to show Bai Wu the small stone that was broken in his palm.

Bai Wu looked at his palm, then at the big rock underneath.

There is a shallow crack on the big rock, which only cracks two or three centimeters in.

Bai Wu frowned.

It is estimated that building such a simple nest in the tribe is not entirely due to the poor construction technology of this era.

fuck.

Building materials in this era are also too difficult to obtain.

Panting with his arms crossed, "What should I do now? Let me take you to another quarry site?"

"No need, I'll go back and think of a way."

"What can be done about this? I think otherwise, you'd better not build a nest, and wait until you find an orc mate before doing it together."

"I won't look for it." Bai Wu didn't raise his head, "If it doesn't work, I'll burn some bricks, there will always be a way."

"Why don't you look for it? Okay, okay, I won't talk anymore, don't stare at me, what is a brick?"

"Things that are similar to stones can also be used to build houses, but they are more troublesome to burn." Bai Wu said, "Go back first, I will think about it."

"It's already this time, what else can I do? Anyway, if you need my help, just tell me."

Bai Wu smiled, "When you are really useful, I will definitely not be polite to you."

The two flew back to the tribe.

Da and Bai Wu bid farewell, and went to busy with their own affairs.

Bai Wu was left sitting by the firepit alone, holding a wooden board and a piece of charcoal to write and draw on it.

He counted for a long time on the board.

When I came back in the afternoon, I saw him scribbling on the wooden board, and took a good look at it several times, "What did you draw? It looks pretty good."

Bai Wu looked down at the square Chinese characters written on charcoal, wiped them casually, and asked, "Why didn't you go out with your friends today?"

"It's nothing fun. I heard you want to go to the river beach to get rocks?"

"It's just a preliminary idea, I'll think about it again."

"Don't think about it, the rocks there are so big, don't say you are a sub-orc, even if the orc passes by, there is nothing you can do."

"That's not necessarily the case, and sub-orcs are not necessarily weaker than orcs."

Kishi hummed twice, "It's up to you, anyway, if you want to help, just tell me."

After thinking for two days, Bai Wu finally came up with a solution.

But whether it will be successful or not, he has to test it out.

He still does not go to collect with the tribe, nor does he go to the place where the tribe pioneered.

These days he moves alone.

The family knew his temper, and no one tried to persuade him.

Taking advantage of the opportunity to act alone, Bai Wu went to the forest to collect a large amount of firewood, and transported it to the river beach.

He also cut the grass on the river beach and piled it on top of the stones to dry in the sun.

The weather at the beginning of summer was good. It was sunny for several days in a row, and it was okay to have occasional showers. The rainwater that fell was dried up in a short while.

He was busy on the river beach.

The sun was too strong, and his fair skin was not tanned, but peeled off.

To make matters worse, because of too much walking, there were many stones and debris on the road, the fragile animal leather boots on his feet were cut, causing some injuries to the soles of his feet.

In this day and age, where injuries are commonplace, he doesn't care.

There are not many materials stored at home, only a few pieces of animal skins.

He rummaged around, repaired the leather shoes with leftover materials, and continued to use them.

Because of his foot injury, his range of activities was greatly reduced, and he could no longer go far to collect firewood, so he simply cut down all the grass on the river beach.

There are a lot of things hidden in the grass.

Baiwu doesn't need to collect extra food anymore. It can find enough insects, bird eggs and wild vegetables just by mowing the grass.

All in all, his efficiency in going out to collect is higher than that of his brother.

The food that their family eats every day can be different.

Early this morning, Bai Wu flew over to the river beach with a basket on his back as usual.

Before he landed, he saw a person standing on a big rock with his back to him.

The man was tall and burly, with a black animal skin skirt around his waist, his smooth skin was like satin under the sun.

Just looking at the back, Bai Wu knew that this person was absolutely extraordinary.

Bai Wu guardedly landed more than ten meters away from the person, and after careful inspection, he realized that the person who came was the priest.

He stood on the big rock and shouted from afar, "My lord priest."

The man turned his head, and it turned out to be Nan Yao, the priest of the bird orc.

Nan Yao turned his head and met Shang Bai Wu's eyes, "When I flew over the sky today, I smelled the blood of our clan."

Only then did Bai Wuri know why he was standing here, and he felt relieved, and said to Nanyao: "I accidentally cut my foot yesterday, and it bleed a little, it may have fallen on a stone, it's not a big problem, thank you sir, come here Checked out."

"Which foot did you hurt?"

Seeing Nan Yao looking over, Bai Wu took a step back subconsciously, "It's not serious."

He had wounds on both feet, several from stab wounds, several from grass cuts, and wounds on the soles of the feet, insteps, and ankles.

Because he had been walking for a long time in the woods and grass, there were many cuts on his body.

If the priest saw it, it would look too delicate.

What's more, in such a remote place, standing in front of an orc who was far superior to him in both height and aura, Bai Wu felt a little flustered for no reason.

Probably the biological instinct keeps him away from danger.

Nan Yao came over.

Bai Wu took a few steps back, directly to the edge of the grass, grabbed the grass pole, and refused again, "I'm really fine, don't bother Mr. Priest."

Nan Yao stopped, reached out and took out a pack of dead leaves from a leather bag hanging on his waist, "If you don't treat your foot injury, it will ooze pus. There is medicine here. You can use it yourself."

The expression on Nan Yao's face was very calm.

Bai Wu breathed a sigh of relief, "Thank you, sir."

Nan Yao nodded.

Bai Wu took the medicine and saw Nan Yao was still standing there, trying to find something awkward to chat with.

Nan Yao said, "If you really want to build a nest on that mountain, you can find a beastman to accompany you."

"I don't need an orc, I can do it alone."

Nan Yao's eyes fell on his feet.

Bai Wu's feet moved uncomfortably.

As soon as he moved his foot, Bai Wu immediately realized that he was at a loss in front of this orc.

He is afraid of this orc!

He was actually afraid of an orc in primitive society.

So worthless!

Bai Wu despised himself from the bottom of his heart, but he couldn't relax. He changed the subject in a tense voice, "Does the priest know when it will rain heavily?"

Nan Yao withdrew his gaze, "It will fall the day after tomorrow."

"Morning or afternoon?"

"See for yourself then."

Nan Yao turned to leave.

Before leaving, Nan Yao turned around and asked again, "Why are you asking this?"

"Secret." Bai Wu stood on the river beach, blinked and smiled, "If you're curious, Mr. Priest, you can come to the river beach when it rains heavily the next day and you'll find out."
