Wolf King

Hongye and Ashan saw the staggering back of the lonely gray dwarf not long after chasing the tribe. The speed of this gray dwarf could not be said to be very slow, but his posture was rather awkward. And wobbly, it looks like it will fall at any time.

Hongye's heart tightened, and she quickly shouted: "Wait a minute!"

The gray dwarf turned his head in a daze, and when he saw the two snow werewolves chasing him, he immediately turned pale with fright, turned his head and ran wildly.

"Don't run, hey, you're going to fall!" Hongye was startled.

The duergar runs faster...

It's a pity that the frequency of his two short legs was no faster than the two snow werewolves, and he was caught up by Hongye and Ashan within half a minute. The dwarf looked back at the two snow werewolves with grief and anger, rolled his eyelids, and passed out.

"?!" This reaction frightened Hongye again, and she quickly stretched out her hand to sniff the opponent, but fortunately, she was still alive.

Picking up the gray dwarf with one hand, Hongye weighed the weight and felt anger rising: "He is very thin and light, as expected he was rejected by the other gray dwarves and did not give him food."

"It's so pitiful, I didn't expect gray dwarves to be such a race." Ah Shan was a little displeased, "Take him back quickly and let Ah Yun have a look."

The two carried the gray dwarves and turned back to the tauren tribe. When they passed the small courtyard where the gray dwarves lived, Hongye and Ashan stared at the gray dwarves hiding in the wooden house with unkind faces.

...Balu didn't dare to peek through the window, and shrank into the innermost part of the wooden house with his clansmen, shivering.

When the patriarch came here personally, Xiao Yun was still among a group of tauren women and became his female friend.Hearing that the gray dwarf expelled the sick clansman and was picked up by Hongye and Ah Shan, his expression was very exciting.

"The gray dwarves expel the clansmen?" Xiao Yun was dumbfounded, why is this script so familiar?

The patriarch pulled him back, with a serious face: "We all saw it with our own eyes. A sick young man was driven out and walked outside alone. I looked at the things he took away. Those gray dwarves didn't even have food. He was not given much."

Xiao Yun frowned. He should be happy to pick up a gray dwarf without paying any price, but this style of expelling the sick clansman really lowered his expectations of facing the gray dwarf... If the gray dwarf has human stink There is nothing wrong with that), even if he is taken in, he will feel a sense of shock in his heart.

Sarna will die if he runs away and can only rely on the snow werewolf. If the gray dwarf escapes in a healthy state, he can still be alive and kicking.

Thinking about adjusting the security level of the gray dwarves in his heart, when he returned to the wooden house where the snow werewolf lived, Xiao Yun saw clearly what a living gray dwarf looked like——

Uh... a bit like the halfling in The Lord of the Rings, the height of the senior elementary school students to the junior high school students, although they are short, the body proportions are not too awkward, there is no sense of incongruity like dwarfism, and they are relatively stocky; off-white The skin and facial features are not as old as the dwarves in Warcraft, but they still look quite young, if you say they are handsome, there is also a cute pointy meat on the ear... If you want to say it is pleasing to the eye, according to Xiao Yun's aesthetics From the looks of it, this gray dwarf designation is more pleasing to the eye than the tauren and snow werewolves.

It was indeed not healthy. When the gray dwarf in the corner raised his head in horror, Xiao Yun found that his head was covered with sweat, his eyes were dizzy, the whites of his eyes were bloodshot, his breathing was shallow and rapid, and his complexion was a bit sick. It was blue-gray, and she was still covering her stomach with her hands.

"He won't eat, and won't let us approach." Hongye stood a little far away, holding a small bowl of dried meat floss in her hand... There wasn't much left of this thing, and Hongye was willing to take it out because the horn wasn't there. .

Xiao Yun looked at the gray dwarf who was trembling in the corner of the wall, and looked around with frightened eyes from time to time, and then looked at the few clansmen who were not far away, and suddenly realized a problem—this gray dwarf seemed to be not only He was seriously ill, and he seemed to be frightened... It was inevitable that he would not be frightened, except for him, the size of the other people in this room was quite intimidating.

Taking the pottery bowl from Hongye’s hand, he told the people to step back—not only because he was afraid of scaring people, but mainly because he didn’t know whether the disease of the gray dwarf would be contagious—Xiao Yun squatted until he was more than three meters away from the gray dwarf. In the distance, on the faces of the aunts of the neighborhood committee who cared about the neighbors in the neighborhood were the kind expressions: "Friends of the gray dwarves, don't be nervous, we want to help you... What's wrong with you?"

The gray dwarf stared at him in horror for a second, two seconds, then suddenly fell back and passed out again.

Xiao Yun: "..." Nima is so timid? !

Xiao Yun moved forward a little bit, and immediately smelled the strong and complex odor of this gray dwarf...

"Body odor?" Xiao Yun covered his nose, "Body odor is not like this, it seems to be... what the hell! Damn, this bastard is stretching his crotch!!"

... a mess.

He took off his trousers, rinsed him casually with the warm water that the tauren woman brought, and then wrapped him in animal skins. This guy woke up again in a daze, and turned his eyes to see the snow werewolf close at hand. Immediately, he widened his eyes very round again, that kind of animal-like stress reaction was clearly displayed.

"Don't faint, if you faint again, you will be boiled and fed to the dog... Oh, don't taste salty!" Xiao Yun was so angry that he smacked his forehead with his finger, "What the hell is going on with you, is it like this? Did you eat something you shouldn’t eat? Tell me honestly!!”

The gray dwarves looked horrified. Other tribes captured them as slaves, but the snow werewolves still eat everyone? !

"I, I ate the carrion I picked up, don't eat me!"

carrion?Xiao Yun's mind immediately recalled the scene when he first came in, when the venison he hunted was covered with flies... He couldn't spit it out.

"Are you vomiting, diarrhea, diarrhea, pus and blood?"

The duergar nodded in horror.

"Okay." Xiao Yun looked disgusted, and turned his head to educate the clansmen, "That's why I often say that raw meat should be eaten less, spoiled meat should not be eaten, and it must be cooked, otherwise, like this guy, he will eat a bunch of germs and parasites to get in." , Diarrhea, diarrhea to death."

"Eh?!" The patriarch, Hongye, Ashan, and Ayue, who had eaten raw meat before, looked confused.

Things like dysentery after eating unclean things... If you can't prescribe the right medicine and treat it quickly, it will really kill people, and it is because the gray dwarves are stronger than humans that they can last for so long.Of course, this product also fell into the hands of Xiao Yun. Since he came to this world, Xiao Yun has been doing the work of preventing dysentery for the hygiene habits of his people. He did not forget to bring plantain and horses when he came out to exchange seeds Purslane, just enough to save the gray dwarf's life.

Boil the dried and stored plantain and purslane and pour it down every four hours. This guy didn’t go to the toilet that night, and he didn’t vomit after eating some stewed chowder given by the tauren; This morning, the guy recovered a little bit of energy, and he was no longer sick and faint like yesterday.

"Wait, are you saying that you were not expelled by the clansmen? You want to sacrifice yourself to attract the attention of the enemy, that is, us, before leaving the big team first?!" Xiao Yun pointed his finger at his nose in disbelief.

Dysentery is contagious, just in case, after treating the gray dwarf, Xiao Yun did not let him sleep with his clansmen, but took him to another warehouse borrowed from the tauren, and came to check the situation in the morning. Thinking of hearing the truth of such a thunderbolt.

The gray dwarf Charles nodded embarrassedly, not daring to meet Xiao Yun's gaze.

Xiao Yun: "..." Except for the Grassland Holy Mother Tauren and the Snow Werewolves who don't have this string and their own clansmen are struggling for food and clothing, other grassland tribes have the habit of catching slaves... It just so happens that he forgot about it.

"Wait——in this case, our behavior of treating you will be seen by other gray dwarves..." Xiao Yun was startled, and turned his head and rushed out without waiting for Charles to reply.

He rushed to the small courtyard where the gray dwarves lived, okay... These guys really escaped in the night, and took all the grain piled in the yard.

Niujiao followed up with a wheezing voice, this guy just didn't understand the situation: "What's the matter, Ayun, why are you running away all of a sudden? Hey, where are those gray dwarves?"

"...run away overnight." Xiao Yun did not give up, walked into the courtyard and looked at the empty wooden house, and then let out his breath.

"Ah? Escape?" Niujiao was startled, and quickly stepped back a few steps to look around, "An enemy has sneaked into the Tauren tribe? Haven't the Tauren noticed?"

"Don't be blind, the enemy they are hiding from is us." Xiao Yun said painfully.

Niujiao: "??"

"I also said to find an opportunity to contact them, but now it seems that I have missed the opportunity." Xiao Yun gritted his teeth, "What the hell... these short-legged people have brought a lot of food, even if they run, they won't be far away. Go and take Shire out, I'll call the patriarch and others, let's chase!"

The tauren who got up early to work saw the snow wolf man running out of the tribe aggressively, and greeted him with a smile: "Friends of the snow wolf tribe, are you going back?"

"No, we're going to chase the gray dwarves, we'll be back later, don't forget to prepare our lunch!" Niujiao shouted back in his busy schedule.

Xiao Yun, who was running ahead, staggered and managed not to fall.

All dwarf races are races with super endurance. Although they are small in size, they have strong load-bearing capacity. Dwarves with an average weight of 50-60KG can carry heavy objects that exceed two to three times their own weight. A certain speed is guaranteed.

"Hurry up, everyone, hurry up!" After walking for more than four hours in a row, Balu, the strongest among the gray people, was sweating, but he didn't dare to stop and rest, and kept urging the people hard. "Jasmine catch up quickly, Elba don't fall behind! Hurry up, hurry up!"

"Balu, everyone is working hard, we can't go any faster." Sarah, an older female gray dwarf in the team, panted, "We've come so far, we should be safe."

"No, not yet." Baloo wiped the sweat from his forehead, "The snow werewolves have the same fighting form as the cat clan and the tiger clan, and we will be caught up soon after the distance we have traveled... You forgot Did that goblin say something? The sixty snow werewolf fighters that the tiger tribe bought with [-] cattle and sheep almost hit the city of the elf king—the snow werewolves are all monsters! We need to stay away from those monsters as much as possible!"

Sarah shuddered. The dwarf kingdom's royal city is known as the city that won't fall, while the other name of the elf king's city is the unassailable city... Only sixty snow werewolf warriors almost touched the wall of the elf king's city. This is indeed true. A major event that shocked all the tribes in the entire continent—and they were unfortunately being targeted by such a vicious snow werewolf at the moment!

Suddenly, a look of horror appeared on Balu's face. He quickly put down the huge package on his body and lay down on the ground to listen. After a few seconds, the horror on his face turned into fear and despair: "It's over...the Snow Werewolf is chasing you!" !"

The speed of the snow werewolves, which is called the fighting form by foreigners, is really fast. This group of gray dwarves drove for more than four hours overnight, and ran for more than 30 kilometers. They were caught up by the snow werewolves in just half an hour. Xiao Yun, who was on the patriarch's back, saw all the trembling gray dwarves carrying bags like hills, he couldn't help feeling angry, and stretched out his fingers angrily:

"Where do you guys who abandon your tribe want to go!!"

The patriarch, Hongye who turned into a wolf, Ashan, Ayue, Niujiao, and the gray dwarf Shire who didn't turn into a wolf all looked at him blankly.

Surrounded by two snow werewolves in fighting form, the group of gray dwarves basically gave up struggling, and each of them sat on the ground obediently waiting to be tied up, but unexpectedly... the snow werewolves directly attacked their clansman, Char Looking at their faces, the cub among the Snow Werewolves pointed at them and scolded:

"My own patients are taken care of by themselves, and they pay attention to the company of their relatives when they are hospitalized. What is it called to dump it on others? Is it still human?! I have to change underwear for your clansmen!"

Baru hugged his eldest nephew with a confused face: "?!"

Other gray dwarves: "?!"

Xiao Yun pointed to Shire: "You, explain to your clansmen!"

Charles quickly looked at his uncle: "Balu, the snow werewolves didn't catch me, they healed my stomach."

"Your stomach doesn't hurt anymore?" Balu was shocked, "Wait, Snow Werewolf? Heal you?!"

... If so, after an explanation.

Baloo was sitting on his knees, with his head up, looking dully at the snow werewolf cub sitting cross-legged.

On Xiao Yun's face was the warm smile of the aunt of the neighborhood committee when she was condolences to the low-income households. The speed at which he changed his face was amazing in every way: "Well, you gray dwarves can't independently engage in production activities. If you accidentally encounter cats and tigers, you have to be captured as slaves. It is better to come with us and live on the ground of our snow werewolf. We will not give you grassland and cattle and sheep, but in our snow werewolf territory You are free to mine and smelt if you want, as long as you give us the priority to trade the ironware you smelt. When our snow werewolf caravan sets off to other places for trading, you can also send a team to follow, as long as you agree with If we snow werewolves walk together, we don’t have to worry about being caught or hurt.”

"Uh……"

Xiao Yun put his hand on the opponent's shoulder. It was the first time he could look down at people after coming to this world... No way, whoever made him come into contact with was animals, even Qingyan was a bit taller than him : "The gray dwarves will not be the slaves of the Snowwolves, nor will they be the vassals of the Snowwolves. You are still an independent tribe. We guarantee your safety without any additional conditions. Our Snowwolves will never interfere in your tribe. We will not use the threat of force to force you to do anything you are unwilling to do for us. We will gradually build friendship and trust in the long-term, nearby and convenient trading activities of food and ironware, We will become an unbreakable community of interests... This is a good thing for us and a win-win situation. Friends of the gray dwarves, are you willing to accept the friendship of our tribe?"

The intelligence of gray dwarves is still good. As a long-lived species, gray dwarves can basically live to be over [-] years old if they do not encounter any natural or man-made disasters. Baru, who looks relatively young and has no beard, has passed [-] this year. Naturally, he could understand Xiao Yun's words - this made him very puzzled... The Snow Werewolf spent so much time trying to make them become the Snow Werewolf's neighbors? !Why can't he understand the logic of this kind of thinking? !

If it wasn't for the adult snow werewolf cubs sitting behind the cub and not expressing any objection, Baru would definitely think that the cub snow werewolf was mentally ill—if the gray dwarves wanted to smelt iron for them, they would Wouldn't it be over if he was taken back and made a slave?Is this what cats and tigers do?

Hmm...Baloo probably didn't expect that the adult snow werewolf sitting behind this talking cub actually didn't understand what they were talking about... The horned guy even yawned.

In any case, Baru had no reason to refuse the olive branch extended by the Snow Werewolf who seemed to show a friendly attitude. It was lucky that he was willing to discuss politely instead of tying them up and taking them back. Baru was not so stupid Not even a wink.

Xiao Yun gave Hongye a look, and then took another look at the horns. Hongye understood immediately, and took away the horns under the pretext of "catch some prey to eat before going back". Then Xiao Yun took out the cheese and the only remaining meat floss to entertain the group of Lian Ye The gray dwarves who ran for more than four hours were tired, hungry and thirsty, and seized the time to increase their relationship with Balu.

Anyone who has watched talk shows knows that the first step in bridging the distance between the two parties is to start with caring about the other party's past and letting the other party tell about themselves; The origin of this group of gray dwarves was easily set out.

The dwarves are also a race with considerable fighting power. The king city of the dwarf kingdom is known as the city that will not fall, and the dwarf king is a powerful existence on the same level as the elf king and the beast king. Due to the competition in the underground mine veins, he brazenly launched an attack on the dark elf mistress of the underground world. For thousands of years, there has been only one family of the dwarf kingdom-the elves who have feuded with the dark elves have no dwarf heads, at least the elves will never throw their troops into the meat grinder of the underground world.

But... Compared with the dwarves who expanded their territory and became kings in the earthly world, the gray dwarves and black dwarves, as a minority group, are a little bit out of reach. For example, they are like the black people in the Washington era , yellow race and brown race, even if you are also a human race, but with a different skin color, we can treat you as a slave, a consumable...

The gray dwarves and black dwarves were first driven to the underground world by the dwarf kingdom under the pretext of "underground advance army". Where are the dark elves' opponents on the home court? For thousands of years, they either hid in the cracks to survive, or were directly captured by the dark elves as slaves. Basically, they were in the same position as goblins and spore people without intelligence.

They couldn't see the sun in the underground world, and they didn't dare to go back to the dwarf kingdom. These two kinds of colored dwarves had to run desperately to the uninhabited place in the upper world. Balu's tribe came to the grassland a few years ago.The vast grasslands are scattered with less than 10 people of various tribes. For the gray dwarves, they have found a place to live-but life on the grasslands is not easy, even with the assistance provided by the tauren, because Hunger, sickness, attacks by monsters, etc., the population of the tribe lost one-fifth in just a few years...

Baloo narrated with snot and tears, and Xiao Yun also timely cooperated with a friendly and sympathetic face, thinking crazily in his heart——

He discarded the idea of ​​directly incorporating the gray dwarves into the tribe from the very beginning, because the snow werewolf's main tribe has not yet formed a large scale. The co-prosperity strategy of the snow wolf clan has buried hidden dangers of uneven distribution and uneven benefits.

Talking about racial equality before the base of the main ethnic group is not guaranteed is just a joke, not to say that there is no equality, but that the premise of integrating other races is that one has the ability to accommodate all rivers.

Even if Qingyan tricked...uh, the cat clansmen coaxed over, Xiao Yun didn't intend to let them be on par with the snow werewolves as soon as they came.Before the population of the Snow Wolf Clan could not reach a large scale, Xiao Yun did not consider the great integration of races. This is not just a matter of skin color on the earth. You will not be able to pass the barrier of reproductive isolation.

Naturally, Xiao Yun was not cruel enough to strictly divide the races other than the Snow Werewolves into different ranks. What he wanted was a peaceful and co-prosperous prairie. If the Snow Werewolves wanted to develop, so did the other tribes on the prairie. It’s just that his butt is sitting on the snow werewolf’s side, so of course he must ensure the snow werewolf’s leading position in this development process-it has nothing to do with the Holy Mother or cold-blooded, the more people who have the right to speak in any group, the more It's hard to get things done, and political bloc struggles on Earth have proven this countless times.Hello, me, everyone, everyone will shout slogans, but except for the five hooligans, who is really qualified to keep their word in the United Nations?

So... when Balu hurt himself because of the gray dwarves' situation before his eyes, Xiao Yun, who seemed sympathetic and compassionate, was racing wildly in his mind: How many colored dwarves escaped from the underground world does the tiger clan and cat clan have?

Regardless of the chaotic cat clan at home, where is the technology tree of the tiger clan?

Thinking about it carefully, it was more than 40 years ago that the Tiger Clan broke away from the Cat Clan. Ten years ago, the Orc Empire came to borrow troops. Silently mobilize soldiers, click on the technology tree, and preserve strength at the same time... Maybe it's a blockbuster idea?

This idea made Xiao Yun sweat a few drops on his forehead. Strategically, the enemy must be underestimated, but tactically, the enemy must be taken seriously. This tiger clan is not the same as the snow werewolf who focuses on being cute...

Breathing out lightly, Xiao Yun raised his hand to caress Balu's shoulder with emotion (...), and said softly: "Those are all things in the past, friends of the gray dwarves. Our tribe was also forced to survive and go to the grassland Migrating to the west, although it is remote there, it is also a vast world waiting for us to conquer. There are no other tribes in the whole land, and the land and rivers that can be seen belong to us. The snow werewolves will be in that land And you, friends of the gray dwarves, you can also establish a foothold in that world that belongs only to you."

Balu was a little excited, but he couldn't believe Xiao Yun's words: "Is the Snow Werewolf really willing to become...friendly neighbors with our gray dwarves?"

"Of course, we are already friends, from the moment we decided to work together to create our new life." Xiao Yun smiled.

Baloo was excited: "That's great... My clansmen and I will always be grateful for your friendship—we will definitely work hard to find the best quality ore veins and smelt the best iron tools. If there is any need for the Wolf Clan, we will definitely spare no effort.”

Xiao Yun smiled, did the serfs work hard for the masters before liberation, or did the new Chinese farmers work hard for themselves after liberation?This is something that doesn't need to be compared.It’s really stupid to use shackles and whips to supervise the gray dwarves. Obviously, if they are slaves or free people, they have to be fed. The consumption is equivalent to paying extra supervisors. It’s better to get some hope, future, Friendship and other good words to tap the subjective initiative of these miners and blacksmiths with their own talent points-exploiting labor is also about means, okay?

...The patriarch suddenly felt that something was wrong with this scene, but he couldn't tell what was wrong.

The author has something to say: We, Ah Yun, can’t be said to be black-bellied, but we are more shrewd and able to settle accounts_(:з」∠)_

Huh, why does it feel like the main character is a fox who sneaked into a pack of wolves...囧
