Wolf King

From the first winter in the time travel, Xiao Yun has consciously recorded the days, how many days passed between the first snowfall and the last snowfall, how many days passed between the time when the snow melted and when the temperature reached its peak value in a year, How many days are there between the time of the highest temperature and the vegetation on the grassland turning golden yellow... There is no way, there is no calendar, and Xiao Yun does not know how to use the height of sunlight to calculate the diameter of the planet, calculate the latitude and longitude, and calculate the approximate solar terms on this basis. Only the most stupid method can be used to roughly estimate the season.

After correcting the cross-references of the three winters, Xiao Yun can confirm that the winter in the grassland is about 130 to 150 days, that is, four to five months. Short, about fifty to sixty days... Roughly calculated, the four seasons reincarnate every three hundred and forty to fifty days, and a year is more than ten or twenty days shorter than that of the earth...

Astronomy is beyond the scope of Xiao Yun's mind. He is not an astronomer, so he doesn't know what it means for celestial bodies to revolve faster than the earth. He only needs to get a general understanding of the laws of the climate and the length of the solar terms, which will be of great help in the great cause of farming. That's fine.

In the third winter in this world, the last snow stopped on the 130th day after the first snow. After that, the clouds in the sky became lighter, the sunlight penetrated, and the last cooling came before spring... the snow melted It is common sense that the temperature will drop from time to time. It is not a matter of a day or two for such a thick snow on the grassland to melt.

The snow this winter was heavier than the previous two winters. Last year's snow layer was not enough to cover the swamps in the south of the tribe, but this winter, the swamps in the south were almost buried into flat ground... This is the case at the southern end of the grassland. Under the circumstances, the amount of snowfall in the northern part of the grassland can only be greater. Xiao Yun knows with his knees that the water flow from the north this year will definitely have an impact on the entire grassland. The upper reaches of the river of the earth, the entire upper reaches of the frozen river further confirmed his guess - the water source of the river of the earth came from the Samar snow mountain, and it was frozen like a bird before it reached the snow mountain range. What's the situation on the snow mountain? Need to say?

Hastily rushing back to the tribe, Xiao Yun convened a spring drainage mobilization meeting with the tribe - in previous years, the floods would have to wait until the summer came, and the average temperature rose to an average of 27 degrees to [-] degrees per day, this year is different from the past , Xiao Yun doubts that it is possible to get angry during the spring and summer communication.

After eating the grain grown in the field for a year or two, everyone knows how dangerous flooding is. After the mobilization meeting, before the ground thawed, Languo’s engineering team set off with all the digging tools to provide food for the tribe. The upper reaches of the tributary of the river of the earth, which is a source of water but also brings hidden dangers.

Three adult goblins and half of the gray dwarves were temporarily recruited into the engineering team. This team has two things to do: one is to dig a new drainage channel from the upper reaches of the tributary to the exit of the underground world, and In case of an emergency, part of the river water should be diverted to the underground world. Anyway, the underground world is very large, and the underground world next to the grassland is not inhabited at all. It is also connected to the groundwater, so there is nothing wrong with using it for drainage.

The second is to continue to dig the artificial river built last year, as far as possible to the south. Don’t worry about digging to the mouth of the sea. At least dig to the canyon area near the Caishen Huanghua Plain. Observing from the air, it leads directly to the sea. It seems to be a naturally formed outlet to the sea, but because of the raised plain in the middle, it is only useful when there is a flood.

The first project is fine, but the second project is completely a big project. Xiao Yun thought that the engineering team might not be able to handle it in half a year... But there is no way, there are many things in this world that are not done only if they can be done. But regardless of whether it can be done or not, if necessary, you have to try your best.

The engineering team started work, and the brick factory and cement plant were also in operation. The work of spring plowing was handed over to the work team led by Qingyan, Dashui and Qingcao... Fortunately, there were fewer people due to the experience of last year's plow land reclamation. , Work harder, there is still time for those who are in a hurry.

Sixteen Xuelang warriors, Hongye and Ayue went to the engineering team to do water conservancy, Ashan buried himself in making bricks in the brick factory, Mu Mu helped out in the cement factory of Huoyan patriarch, and Yu had only 12 people including himself.Xiao Yun, the twelve warriors, did not take out farming, because they had more important things to do: the period of snow melting was the period when the ferocious beasts and monsters were frantically predating for the winter. Unable to afford the loss of manpower, the soldiers have to step up their patrols to drive away all dangers far away.

As for why Mao is driven instead of hunted, this is a topic that hurts self-esteem... You can't even catch up with a Mao.

When Can Xue was completely melted, the six tribes that Xiao Yun personally went to contact sent migrant soldiers to find them one after another... It is not easy to find tribes that you have never been to on the vast prairie, but there are also snow werewolves. Their own way, they will leave obvious signposts where they walk, such as building large stones into special circles, inserting a broken tree or something inside, Mumu left signposts in winter , these soldiers just follow the road signs and find them.

These tribes sent as many fighters as they wanted, four or five were more, and three or four were less. After all, the treatment Xiao Yun gave was that one soldier would give one hundred catties of salt, two thousand catties of wheat, [-] catties of soybeans, as well as as much alfalfa as you can move back, and food and lodging during the part-time job, this treatment is not unreasonable (cough cough).

The most unique tribe sent all the patriarchs here to work... When Xiao Yun saw this patriarch who smiled innocently and felt a little guilty, his face became embarrassing.

Twenty-four migrant workers (including a patriarch) from six tribes came, and Xiao Yun shaved their heads, brushed, washed, disinfected and fed them as usual, and then... all rushed to cultivate the land.

More than 6000 mu of land needs to be plowed, and it is the time when Xiao Yun wants to hang himself due to the shortage of people, so you guys came at the right time~!

As a result, in the fields on both sides of the river, many white-haired giant wolves dragged the plow and worked hard...

This group of migrant workers helped to plow the fields for half a month, and everyone became very calm - when they came, they were a little worried that there would be something wrong with such a generous salary, but after working for a while, they found that it was indeed very Tired, tired and bald, of course I feel at ease. I dare to shake off my cheeks and chew on the delicious meals given by the Huoyan Tribe every day, without being afraid of embarrassment.

Xiao Yun liked the pragmatic style of the Snow Werewolves very much. He let the group of migrant workers rest for two days to recharge their spirits, and immediately rushed to the engineering team to continue working hard... Yes, he recruited them under the name of hiring a commercial transportation team Warrior, but it's not that the caravan hasn't come yet!Could it be that he keeps people for nothing and doesn't let him do anything?That's not great~!

Sowing and fertilizing is not easy for newcomers, but fortunately, plowing saves a lot of time, and they can take their time when flooding...

With the joining of this group of migrant workers, the progress of the engineering team increased by a quarter. At the end of the spring sowing, the drainage channel leading to the underground world in the upper reaches of the river was dug out; The engineering team came back and rested for a day, then continued to work, digging down on the basis of the original artificial river.

Ayan, a migrant worker, is 32 years old from the Li tribe.

Hmm... Ah Yan's status as a fighter is a bit tricky, because he has only been an adult for two years... In a small tribe like Li, he is indeed better than ordinary people and has a little more experience as a fighter, but to be honest, he He can't be regarded as a soldier, but can only be regarded as a big boy who has just grown up and has a certain fighting capacity.

The Li tribe is a small tribe where even the patriarch Li came to work, which made Xiao Yun embarrassed for a long time. This tribe lives in a relatively barren area and there are many monsters around, so there is no way to send out powerful fighters. The treatment... Among other things, one extra soldier and one hundred catties of salt made Patriarch Li feel like a cat in his heart, so patriarch Li made up the number himself, A Yan, the "big boy" who just grew up Also made up the number.

Who said the Snow Werewolf wasn't careful...

Collected four warriors and came to the Huoyan Tribe. At the beginning, from Li to Ayan, I was a little guilty. I was afraid that Ayun would turn his face. Eat and drink enough to arrange to go to work; very hard, hard enough to do the work that people are too tired to talk about, both the patriarch Li and the soldier A Yan are relieved, although their status as soldiers is a bit vain, but The work you do is real!

Ayan, who was sweating like rain and buried himself in the ground, dug a few more hoes before stopping when he heard someone calling for dinner. He put his own tools and those used by his tribe together. Ayan wiped his sweat and climbed out of the two-meter-deep river, turned around He headed over to pull the older Li patriarch up, and then walked to the side with the others to wash their hands.

Ayun from the Huoyan Tribe asked everyone to wash their hands before eating, otherwise they would not be given snacks - worms wrapped in flour fried with bean oil, meat wrapped in skin, bean cakes fried thoroughly with flour and soybeans, etc. - at first some people were not used to it , After watching others eat crispy snacks that are fried into golden yellow and have nothing to eat, no matter how stupid people are, they will learn to behave.

The water for washing hands is brought from the river. One person can use a small basin of water, wash it with soap, rub off the mud and wash it with water, and then go to the nearby flat ground to get food.

Lunch usually consists of steamed cakes and noodle soup. The extra-large steamed cakes are soft and delicious. A Yan took his own portion, sat back next to Patriarch Li, and bit off a large piece, his face covered with tears. It's a happy expression... Fortunately, he came with the cheek, otherwise he wouldn't be able to eat such a delicious food.

"Today's fillings are really delicious, Dahe has made new fillings?"

There are at least eight taels of steamed cakes. The Snow Werewolf needs to eat three, and also needs to drink a large bowl of noodle vegetable soup. The Gray Dwarf does not have the stomach capacity of the Snow Werewolf, and one can fill him up, but it is not enough for one and a half days. Ayan beautifully While munching on the steamed cake, the gray dwarf next to him, who had just taken two bites, spoke to the cat clan who brought the food.

The larger cat tribes were incorporated into Qingyan's second-level labor force, and when the woolen mills of the rabbit cats started to work, they were the ones who delivered the meals.Snow Leopard Rosemary is also a person who loves to eat. If the cafeteria was not full of people, he would have wanted to sneak in. The gray dwarf scratched his itch when he asked this question, and immediately squatted down: "That is, I saw Dahe Lane with my own eyes. The new stuffing, the fish fished from the tribal ditch in the morning, the fish slices were deep-fried, and it was said to be added to everyone at night, the fish bones, fish skin and pig skin were boiled and frozen, mixed into the stuffing, the taste was not good at all Same……"

As soon as Ah Yan heard the drooling, she couldn't help interjecting: "Is there any food for dinner? Is it delicious?"

"Of course it's delicious. Dahe said he's cooking tonight, and the biggest iron pot in the warehouse has been moved out." Rosemary proudly showed off, "Let me tell you, stir-fried vegetables are much more delicious than soups. Chinese cabbage, the aroma of fried cabbage is several times that of soup..."

"Damn it, you came here to help!" Leopard Fishbone was sweating profusely to scoop up soup for someone. When he turned around, he found that his little friend had squatted beside him and was blowing into the sea of ​​people. He was so angry that he even yelled out Ayun's catchphrase. .

"I'm coming!"

Ah Yan swallowed the steamed cakes with cheeks, gulped down a mouthful of noodle vegetable soup, burped contentedly, and turned to look at the patriarch with a curious face: "Ah Li, they have so much delicious food here. , why doesn’t our tribe have one?”

Patriarch Li turned his back to him, too lazy to talk to this fart kid, why, it's impossible to dislike him as a patriarch, right?

A Yan looked innocent, and turned his head to look at the other tribe... but saw that the tribe had eaten two steamed cakes, and was holding the third steamed cake to look at it complicatedly.

"It would be great if I could give the third pancake to my partner." The soldier sighed resentfully, and turned to face Ayan.

A Yan immediately bowed his head and poured soup... The partner of this tribe is also a warrior, and she is quite strong. The safety of the tribe cannot be separated from her, so A Yan made up the numbers.

Everyone had enough to eat and drink. The cats came to collect the dishes and checked whether everyone’s hands were clean. If they were clean, they would give out snacks—a bean cake that was fried with flour and fried until golden yellow, crispy and delicious. And a handful of refried beans fried with salt and a little pine nuts.

Apart from the main meal, what Ah Yan is looking forward to most is the distribution of snacks. She cherishes her share with both hands, puts the bean cake in her mouth, and carefully stores the fried beans in the pocket on her belt... It's a pity to eat all the delicious snacks at once. He saved up the meat floss he received two days ago and ate it slowly, and now there is still a small handful left in his pocket.

After eating, everyone can rest for half an hour before going to work, and many people take this opportunity to sleep for a while.Ayan was full of energy and didn't want to take a nap. He wanted to ask the tribe if he wanted to find some edible wild fruits around. When he turned his head, he saw the tribe staring at the fried bean cake in a daze.

"...I can share half of it with my partner, and I want to share the meat floss I saved before..." The clansmen turned their faint gazes to A Yan again.

Ah Yan... Ah Yan immediately found a place to lie down and take a nap.

After a busy afternoon, when it was dark, Ayan followed the team back to the tribe. Under the arrangement of Languo and the others, they lined up to wash the plaster on their bodies. People from the engineering team came to the square—the weather was a little warmer, and everyone didn't like to eat in the house anymore.The cafeteria doesn't care where everyone eats anyway, and it doesn't affect their workload.

Holding the chopsticks clumsily, he carefully pulled the fried Chinese cabbage with Sanxian meat in the bowl, and the fried fish nuggets with a little pepper powder and chili noodles into his mouth. A Yan once again showed a happy expression from the bottom of his heart... so delicious!The taste is so exciting!

Although I'm a little sorry for the partner of the tribe...but it's so hot to follow the patriarch Ali with the cheek!

"Clang!" "Ah!"

The sound of the broken pottery bowl and the screams sounded simultaneously. When Ah Yan looked up, he found a warrior from another tribe staring at the broken pottery bowl fragments on the ground with a pale face and trembling hands. There were still a few vegetable leaves in the fragments. .

"Don't jump on it, be careful to cut your hands!" The people in the cafeteria also noticed this side, seeing the soldier squatting down suddenly, they quickly shouted to stop it.

"This...I, I'm not..." The soldier looked flustered.

"It's okay, if the bowl is broken, it will be broken." The person in the cafeteria walked over and took a look, "I'll clean it up, and you can continue to eat yours."

The soldier looked up at the people in the cafeteria, then looked down at the pile of debris, a little at a loss.

"If the food is dirty, you can't eat it. Go and get another dish." The person in the cafeteria didn't let him squat down, and he squatted down to clean up by himself. "You don't have any snacks given out later. It's not because you broke the bowl, it's because you wasted it." food."

The soldier stared blankly at the people in the cafeteria, unable to recover for a long time...

"It's too careless, such a good bowl is not properly held."

A Yan heard Patriarch Li muttering in a low voice, and nodded in agreement.

"But they don't seem to care about the bowls, and they punish the snacks in order to waste the dishes." A Yan, an older bear child, added.

Patriarch Li turned his back to A Yan again, this dead boy!

After eating, send your dirty dishes to the washing place next to the kitchen. Those who can wash them clean themselves, and those who are afraid of breaking the tableware ask others to wash it. Anyway, everyone’s dishes are as if they have been licked. Washing the dishes is not hard work...

Go back to the square again and find a place to sit down. One is to wait for the snacks, and the other is to listen to the story... In order to exercise the ability of expression, Xiao Yun asked Hongye, Yu, Languo, Caogen and others to tell stories to everyone in turn. It doesn't matter if you can't memorize the full text, you can take the bark paper to talk and practice along the way-Languo was forced to take math class last year, and it can be regarded as practiced, and Yu, who is rare to speak, still needs to practice.

There is a surprise for tonight’s snacks. Anyone who does not make mistakes can get a small piece of maltose wrapped in steamed leaves. As soon as Ayan gets his share, he immediately puts it all in his pocket...I have received the maltose four or five times Yes, I didn't know before I saved up and finished eating immediately, but I can only be greedy when I watch others eat.

It was Yu who walked up to the people to tell the story. He still looked a little nervous, spread out the bark paper and held it in both hands, and said stiffly: "Today, let's talk about the story of "Little Red Riding Hood"..."

The moralizing and overly dark and even a bit depressing magic reform dark fairy tales are actually not very fun as attractive spiritual entertainment... I can't help but the grassland people's enjoyment of spiritual entertainment is completely zero, so even if it is After listening to this kind of story over and over two or three times, everyone still listened with gusto.

Others go up to tell old stories, but Ah Yun only listens to new stories when he goes up. This kind of rule is clear to the newcomer Ah Yan, but a story is a story. Even after hearing it, Ah Yan is still very enthusiastic.

A few more days of busy, fulfilling, intense and interesting working life have passed.That night, as usual, Ah Yan carefully put away the snacks he had received in his pocket, when he suddenly heard cheers, looked up, and saw that it was Ah Yun who came to the front.

"Ayun, Ayun—" Ah Yan immediately became excited and cheered like everyone else.

Patriarch Li moved a little away from the dead child in disgust.

Xiao Yun raised his hand and pressed the button to make everyone quiet, and said with a smile: "Tonight, I will tell you something exciting, I guarantee that you have never heard of it before. This story is a ghost story, set in a human In the countryside of the Kingdom, there is a small mountain village, and in this village, there is such a family..."

Goblins have no religious beliefs, nor do the snow werewolves and cat tribes, but the gray dwarves believe in the god of fire, but this belief is a living habit, and the level of piety is as casual as the Chinese people offering glutinous rice cakes to the Stove Lord... Facing such a group To the audience, Xiao Yun nonchalantly threw out the concept of imaginary ghost stories about the ghosts taking revenge after death and persuading people to be good—this world even has such unscientific things as magic and alchemy, so there should be ghost stories here The market!

Most of the people present saw the most human beings Thrall who was taken in by the Huoyan Tribe, but in the endless stories, everyone knew a lot about human beings... Many people even had a general understanding of the composition of human society, Know the shape of the pyramid of power in human society.

In the "ghost story" told by Xiao Yun, the protagonist of the story is a farmer in a mountain village. Because Xiao Yun never believes that goodness and class have any dialectical relationship, this farmer is naturally not created by human beings to coax children. The poor and kind-hearted image, but a standard "troublemaker" - this farmer takes advantage of his own geographical advantages to take in passing travelers for the night, and then kills and seizes property. Of course, these are not reflected at the beginning of the story. At the beginning, this The farmer is just an ordinary person, and strange events suddenly appear in his life, such as the door will automatically open in the absence of wind, the water cups in the house change positions when no one is around, the lights suddenly turn off and on at midnight, and always go to the toilet. It feels like someone is huddling with me...

The very simple, crude and clichéd scary routine of ghost stories, narrated by Xiao Yun, just frightened a group of grassland people who have night vision ability and can move freely in the dark.

After frightening the farmer and the audience for a while, the livestock in the farmer's house began to die, the bloody pigsty, the chicken coop pointed by the bloody footprints, the bloody handprints on the wall in the courtyard——

Finally, the farmer didn’t dare to stay at home, so he ran to the neighbor’s house for the night. As a result, the whole family of the neighbor’s family heard someone sobbing in a low voice at night, and the neighbor was so frightened that he drove the farmer away the next day...

What’s more, it’s the miserable end of the farmer. The neighbors haven’t seen the farmer for many days. When they went to his house, they found that the farmer had become a mummy, kneeling at the gate of his house and kowtowing towards the corner of the yard. The neighbor’s eyes followed the direction of the farmer’s mummy kneeling. , I saw a skeletal hand protruding obliquely from among the green vegetables in the vegetable field in the corner of the courtyard...

The neighbor hurried to the town's security team, and the security officer came to search and dug up several travelers' bodies from the vegetable field in the farmer's yard...

Xiao Yun finished telling the ghost story in a cadence and full of emotion, and then looked at the audience, even Xiao Yun himself was startled—so many people sitting together listening to the ghost story were actually frightened. Several people mingled together and squeezed tightly together, and the small ones forced themselves into other people's arms.

"...Is it that exaggerated?" The corner of Xiao Yun's mouth twitched. When he told this story when the company team was established, a group of little girls bowed their heads, played with their mobile phones, and yawned... Most of you came out with the style of your brothers, I'm afraid it's too uncoordinated to be like this!

Silently shifting his gaze to the always reliable grassroots patriarch, he saw that although the grassroots patriarch looked resolute, he also hugged the gray dwarf Sally who got into her arms, and his hands were still shaking.

Xiao Yun stared at Dead Fish Eyes: "Uh...you don't need to take the test for this story."

The author has something to say: Ah Yan burst into tears: Ah Yun is so frightening!
