obligatory love

As the crescent moon gradually became round, Ning Luo was finally so busy that he never walked out of the door, writing and drawing in the room every day. If someone hadn't brought him the food, he might not have had a grain of rice. .

The defense of the tribe looks the same as usual, but it is loose on the outside and tight on the inside. Even the children no longer play and play in the passage, and the cave is so quiet that people dare not even breathe out.

Soker sometimes feels that Cheng Yuan is like a well, a well that is so deep that you can't see the bottom.The well water is sweet and clear, and standing there is harmless to humans and animals, and no one will hate him.But sometimes, he is terribly cold, even if you throw a stone down with all your strength, there will be no splashes, and in a blink of an eye, it will be as calm as a mirror.

The quarrel that day seemed to disappear with the cold mist, as if nothing had happened—they had no quarrel, and Cheng Yuan had never been to the back mountain.

"Mother and father" is the most taboo word in his life. Since the beast father also left, no one has ever mentioned such a role to him.Everyone thought that if he was so strong, he would not rely so much on his beast parents like other weak descendants, but they never considered whether his independence came too early.

And Suo Keer also had to admit that what Cheng Yuan said was true.

The appearance of Cheng Yuan is exactly the same as the encounter with the mother and father that the beast father once said.

If it is said that meeting Cheng Yuan was purely accidental, then it was indeed his selfish act to take in Cheng Yuan that day.

He didn't understand where Cheng Yuan knew this, but he no longer had the courage to question him.

The two maintain a rare kind of delicate balance.Suo Keer patrolled around every day as usual, and when he came back, he would see the meals that Cheng Yuan had left for him, waiting for him to eat together when he came back.Sometimes the two would chat about a few ordinary things, as if they were really spending a leisurely winter vacation.

After dinner that day, Cheng Yuan took advantage of the dim light of the night pearl to read a book.The light of Ye Mingzhu was weak, Cheng Yuan felt his eyes sore after looking at it for a short time, so he could only put down the book and close his eyes to rest for a while.

As soon as his mind is idle, his thoughts tend to wander, and he drifts back to the trip to the wolf's den two days ago when he was in a trance. Only then did Cheng Yuan remember that he had forgotten to ask about something.

"Sockel."

When his name was called suddenly, the young man who had been secretly observing him shivered, raised his head and said, "What?"

"Do all of you people here have black hair and black eyes? Do you have that kind of blond hair, blue eyes, high cheekbones, and a straight nose?" Cheng Yuan said, consciously describing it not specific enough, casually He took a pen and paper and simply drew a comic villain, which was somewhat similar to the wolf king he saw that day.

Sokel took it over and took a closer look, then shook his head, "There may be blond people in the mermaid tribe, but their appearance is not the type you painted."

Cheng Yuan thought about it.

Since he came to this world, most of the faces he saw were typical Asian faces. Only the wolf king was different from the people he had seen. He had a typical European appearance, which made him very strange.

However, the appearance of the wolf king did not take up too much thinking time for Cheng Yuan, because on this day, the tribe finally received a long-awaited news.

A large flock of crows flew from nowhere, flying towards the mountain in blackness, and the Crane Clan, who had been circling for a long time, couldn't figure it out, and felt as if they were facing an enemy for a moment.However, these crows did not intend to fight against them at all. A group of birds held a piece of white paper in their beaks. Ah" shouted and fled without a trace.

The Crane Clan was confused by this battle, so they hurriedly cut the papers. However, there were so many pieces of paper that they didn't dare to approach the ground. After all, many of them fell on the plank road, and were picked up by the guarded orcs, who quickly passed them on. into the hole.

The Crane Clan didn't want to delay either, a white crane passed across the sky, flew to the back mountain, and handed the paper to Feng Feng.

"Okay! Well done!" Feng Feng thought it was his subordinates who had intercepted the intelligence of the Tiger Clan, and took it with a big smile, but he couldn't laugh anymore after looking closely.

A line of square symbols on the paper was unheard of and unseen, and the Crane Clan who sent the message turned into a human form and explained the situation.

"Treacherous!" Furious, Feng Feng threw the note on the ground as if he were a member of the Tiger Clan.But the note was too light, it only twirled in the air, and floated to the ground very slowly and irritatingly.

"What's the matter?" A hand suddenly caught the note.Feng Feng turned his head and saw the wolf king staring at the note, a light seemed to flash in his eyes, and he was shocked with murderous intent.

That gaze was like a sharp sword, piercing through the clouds and mist, and falling straight into the place they had coveted for a long time...

Inside the cave, everyone knew nothing about what happened in the back mountain.After the patriarch received the note, he just looked dazed. He was about to send someone to urge the witch doctor to come, but he was greeted by Ling Rou who hurriedly pushed the door open.

A young man always grows extremely fast, and his stature has slackened a lot in one winter. The blood and killings have polished his face even sharper, but his eyes still have the clarity of a newcomer to the world.

At this time, in those amber eyes, there was light dancing happily, and even his cheeks were flushed, making him look extra energetic.

"It's Yellen's letter. The letter said that he will arrive with the Eagle Clan in three days."

"Oh?" the patriarch asked strangely, "You know what's on it? How do you know it's from Yellen."

"Mr. Cheng Yuan taught us this kind of character in his spare time. He said it was his native dialect. I learned it for fun, but I didn't expect it to come in handy." When Ling Rou said this, her eyebrows and eyes were slightly curved, as if There is a water bead hidden in the amber, shining softly, and the ending of the last sentence rises lightly, with a bit of deliberately suppressed pride.

"So that's how it is." The patriarch laughed twice, and patted Ling Rou's shoulder approvingly, "Okay, you two are eager to learn, and you can apply what you have learned in such a short time!"

Ling Rou lowered her head modestly, and took a step back slightly, "It's okay. He's pretty... pretty smart."

The patriarch nodded and said, "This is the best news in a few days. You go and invite the witch doctor, and we can discuss it together."

Ling Rou took the order to invite Ning Luo, knocked on the door twice, but no one answered, she pushed the door open and went in, and found no one in the room, and opened the curtain around the inside, only to find that Ning Luo was sitting in the back room, holding a note While shaking his head slightly, he smiled again.That kind of smile was very different from usual, there was no mockery or coldness, on the contrary, there was a sense of comfort, it was very disproportionate to his usual performance, and unexpectedly it was not against harmony.

"Master?"

"Huh?" Ning Luo came to his senses when he heard someone calling his name, and put down the note in his hand, "What's the matter?"

Lingrou took two steps forward, looked at him, and then at the note on the table, "You... know the words on it?"

"What word?" Ning Luo followed his gaze to the note, and suddenly said, "This? I don't know it, but I saw it twice when Cheng Yuan taught you two."

"Then what are you laughing at?"

"I laughed at his ugly writing." Ning Luo clicked his tongue twice, the gratified look of being a teacher's model disappeared, and he laughed mockingly, "I see that Cheng Yuan wrote that the ones drawn by others have noses and eyes. , and look at what this monkey kid wrote, it’s twisted and crooked.”

Ling Rouhan frowned, "The teacher has been practicing for many years, and we are just learning, so we cannot be compared."

Ning Luo raised his eyebrows and glanced at him. Just as he was about to say something malicious, he made a circle around his teeth and changed his appearance, "Teacher Cheng allows you to practice slowly, but I don't have that much patience."

Without any timidity, Lingrou met the piercing gaze, "I will surpass you soon."

Ning Luo smirked, "It's best."

Cheng Yuan was not the first to get the note, but as one of the few people who could read, he was also one of the first to understand the situation.

The words on the note were written crookedly, and one could tell at a glance that the person who wrote them was very impatient, and could vaguely tell that it was "three days later, return with the eagle".If this kind of character is seen by the teacher, it will be hand-banged.Only the "don't worry" carefully added at the end seems to be hesitant and solemn by the author, containing the immatureness of a teenager and the seriousness of a sudden growth.

In fact, the word "worry" always has a bit of sticky rebuke, but the master blends this overly sweet taste into the heavy worry, you can only chew carefully to find out from the frowning In the tone of Bo Nu, there is a soft feeling of being missed.

Cheng Yuan watched and couldn't help laughing.The temperament and age of these two children always reminded him of the third year of high school he was leading.A group of half-grown children, who say they are immature and immature, have their own ideas and opinions.As a teacher, sometimes I can't help but want to tell them not to do this or that, but I envy them that they have the capital to "start all over again" after making a mistake.

"what's up."

"A note." Cheng Yuan handed the note to Suo Keer and said, "The patriarch just sent someone to call you over, and he also sent this."

Sokel understood the general idea with just a glance, and asked casually, "Is the Eagle Clan here?"

"No. It was delivered by a group of crows." Cheng Yuan recounted what he had just heard, and finally smiled, "This kid is really clever."

"No."

"Huh?" Cheng Yuan blinked and said doubtfully, "It's pretty smart."

"It's not a child." Sokel folded the note twice and held it in his hand, "I'll go first."

"Okay." Cheng Yuan murmured back.

It took Cheng Yuan a long time to realize that the two people he always regarded as children were only two years younger than Sokel.

People, sometimes they think they are fair and just, but they still inadvertently "double standards".

Cheng Yuan actually doesn't like attending tribal meetings.

On the one hand, his identity is embarrassing. Among the "patriarchs", "witch doctors" and "rising stars", he is an "outsider" who has just arrived here not long ago. On the other hand, he himself knows very little about the situation here, and he doesn't have a "strategic mind" like Ning Luo. The formation of troops is a matter for him who has never left school in his life. It is too difficult for some people, and the reluctant participation in the first few times was just relying on some miscellaneous books I read when I was a student.If he didn't come here out of nowhere, on such a winter day, he should be sitting in the office correcting a new round of weekly exam papers, and by the way, he can't laugh or cry over the lonely word "jie" on the answer area.

His temperament is not suitable for the bustling city, but more suitable for the countryside and forests.

But it's not this kind of precarious life.

Cheng Yuan collapsed on the wooden bed and closed his eyes with a headache.His heart was beating violently, and the uncertainty of the future made him worry, and at the same time, he had the idea of ​​breaking the jar.

Three days, but only three days.After three days, you will either be lucky enough to survive or bid farewell to the world.

But it's nothing, anyway, it's not the first time he died, maybe he can really go back by mistake by taking this opportunity.

However, they did not wait until the third day.

Two days later, the moon is full.
