Fire Dragon Song

Chapter 24

Kang Ding didn't have the audacity to think that Zhao Yunxiao had his share of the white pot with egg yolk.But when he saw Zhao Yunxiao kneeling beside Jisang, looking like he was about to feed Jisang, Kang Ding was taken aback.Jisang didn't expect Zhao Yunxiao to cook for him after working outside for a long time.It is difficult for him to eat now, and his stomach hurts when he eats.

Zhao Yunxiao regarded Jisang as an ordinary stomach patient.He scooped up a spoonful of fragrant mushroom egg porridge, warmed it up and fed it to Jisang's mouth: "Drink some porridge, it nourishes the stomach."

Jisang had already smelled the aroma of the food, and his stomach let out a cry of hunger in need. He was also very curious. Jisang opened his mouth without rejecting Zhao Yunxiao's kindness.When the warm food entered his mouth, Jisang widened his eyes and looked at the white paste in the bowl in surprise. What is it? !It smells so good!

Zhao Yunxiao scooped up another spoon and blew on it.Jisang couldn't wait to swallow the mush in his mouth and ate it.Jisang's stomach is not good, it is best to eat this kind of food that is easy to digest and nutritious.But Zhao Yunxiao still said: "Eat slowly."

Outside, Kang Ding stood up and walked in.As soon as he came in, Zhao Yunxiao's body was visibly tense.Jisang took the bowl from Zhao Yunxiao and handed it to Kang Ding, then held Zhao Yunxiao's hand and said, "Thank you."

Zhao Yunxiao couldn't understand, and replied in a language barrier: "Eat slowly, I'll go out first." Then he patted Jisang's hand, stood up and went out.

Kang Ding knelt down beside Jisang, scooped up a spoonful of the paste, and imitated Zhao Yunxiao's way of warming it up and feeding it to Jisang.Jisang said, "Try it."

Kang Ding shook his head: "He did this for you."

Jisang could clearly see that Zhao Yunxiao didn't like Kangding, but he still said, "Take a bite, he won't mind." Apart from Tuzuo, Kangding listened to Jisang very much.He takes a sip, then looks at the bowl of mushy white food in shock, as Ji-san had initially reacted.This is also Jisang's intention to let him have a taste.

"I'm hungry, feed me."

Kang Ding managed to recover from Jisang's words, and silently fed him the porridge spoon by spoon.When Jisang was drinking porridge, Zhao Yunxiao also scooped up a bowl of porridge.Kang Ding guessed right, this pot of porridge does not belong to him.Zhao Yunxiao is not so generous and kind enough to cook for someone he doesn't like, even if this person is probably Yunhuo's father.When sadness settles, when calmness and reason rise, it is not difficult for Zhao Yunxiao to find doubts before and after the incident.

From everyone's obvious fear of Yunhuo, from Kangding not allowing Jisang to touch Yunhuo, from Wala and those people preventing him from going to Yunhuo, from Yunhuo's painful neighing when he left, and Yunhuo's "Yunhuo" Zhao Yunxiao became more and more convinced that Yunhuo had a reason for keeping him here because of his abnormal behavior after becoming a human, and those who were afraid of Yunhuo and were unfriendly to him were one of the reasons.

Just as he was able to make a quick decision after being hurt by Lin Mingyuan, Zhao Yunxiao didn't intend to let himself be immersed in sadness all the time.If Yunhuo really abandons him, doesn't want him, doesn't like him anymore, it won't be too late for him to be sad.Without much appetite, Zhao Yunxiao couldn't eat more than half a bowl of porridge.Scoop out the remaining porridge in the pot, and he went to wash the pot.

The water in the water tank was almost used up, and Zhao Yunxiao didn't know where to pour the pot water.When he lived in the cave, because there were waterfalls and running water, he always washed it directly.Jisang had a very comfortable meal, and he kept paying attention to Zhao Yunxiao.Seeing Zhao Yunxiao staring at the water in the pot in a daze after washing the pot, he said a few words to Kang Ding, then lifted the animal hide to get up.Kang Ding hurriedly stopped him: "I'll go."

"You're a male, let me go, and I'm much better." Jisang put on the straw sandals and stood up.There are soft leather socks on his feet, and his whole body is very warm. After drinking the porridge, his stomach feels more comfortable. After he has not been able to eat a good meal for a long time, his energy is obviously much better after eating this bowl of light and refreshing porridge.

While worrying about where to put the dirty water, there was a sound behind him, Zhao Yunxiao turned his head, then he stood up with the pot in his hand, and asked awkwardly, "This, where to pour it?"

Kang Ding came out first, and when he saw Jisang also came out, Zhao Yunxiao immediately felt relieved.Jisang walked up to Zhao Yunxiao and reached for the pot, but Zhao Yunxiao avoided him because the other person was a patient.Kang Ding reached out to pick it up, but Zhao Yunxiao didn't give it. Except for Yunhuo, he would not accept any help from a "pure male".

Jisang patted Kang Ding, and then said to Zhao Yunxiao: "Come with me." After speaking, he motioned to Zhao Yunxiao, and then walked out.Zhao Yunxiao didn't understand but understood, and immediately followed, wondering in his heart whether the sentence just now meant to let me follow?

As soon as Jisang came out, the remaining males in the tribe and the females who were preparing lunch all looked over, even Wala, who was talking to Meren at the door, looked over in surprise.Both Jisang and Zhao Yunxiao were dressed in gopher-skin clothes. Seeing Jisang wearing a strange "luxury" costume and leading Zhao Yunxiao to the ditch where they poured waste water, everyone couldn't help but stop their hands. .Jisang was already too sick to walk, so he could get out of bed after only one morning? !The females looked at the gopher fur clothes on both of them with envy and curiosity rather than being surprised. Where did the gopher skins of the Jisan family come from? Could it be that Baher hunted them down?

The precious furs belong to the hunted orcs, and only ordinary furs will be uniformly distributed by the tribe.And not just the fur.Rare prey, fruits, materials, etc., all belong to the hunted orcs.Everything a female collects is her private property.Females are related to the continuation of the tribe. In order to give birth to offspring, the females themselves have to pay a lot and even their lives. The tribe must not only take care of the females, but also cannot deprive the females of their private property.

The orcs have to hunt enough food for the tribe every day. The orcs are also dangerous and hard, so things that are not easy to get, such as gopher skins and sticky honey, also belong to the hunted orcs, and the tribe will not take them away. This is also a reward for the brave orcs.The responsibility of the patriarch is to maintain the stability and unity of the entire tribe, so that the males can go hunting more energetically, and the females can give birth to offspring with peace of mind.And the food hunted by a male with a partner will first meet the needs of his partner and then give the extra gifts to the tribe. If any female is pregnant, the best food in the tribe will be given priority to that female, and other The males will also hunt good prey and give it to each other in exchange.

Everyone in the tribe lives harmoniously, helps each other, and overcomes difficulties and disasters together.It's just that Zhao Yunxiao still doesn't know the way of life here, and because of Yunhuo, he doesn't want to contact anyone except Jisang.The so-called ditch is nothing but a small ditch dug deep.Dirty water pours into the ditch, and the water flows out down the ramp.Zhao Yunxiao took a look, and the dirty water seemed to have flowed into the woods next to the village.So, where do you go to the bathroom?Another problem hit.

Speaking of this question, Zhao Yunxiao still blushed a little.When he was by the lake, he would go to the woods to solve it. When he got to the cave, he asked Yunhuo to take him down the mountain for convenience.There is absolutely no toilet paper, just use dry leaves and wash them after convenience.Yunhuo already knew his living habits very well, and specially picked up those soft dry leaves and put them in the cave so that he could use them at any time.If he gets up at night, Yunhuo will accompany him to the grass on the mountainside.

Returning with an empty pot, Zhao Yunxiao was still thinking about convenience.Jisang asked Kang Ding to cook food by himself, and he took Zhao Yunxiao's hand and went out again.Jisang's hands were still cold, but not as cold as before.Zhao Yunxiao doesn't know anyone here, and he doesn't understand the language. Fortunately, there is Jisang.Jisan is a female and naturally understands the needs of females.The huts of the tribe are surrounded by semicircles, and the open direction is the entrance of the village.There is a large square in the middle, and there is a large square pond near the ditch. Zhao Yunxiao saw it just now when he came out. There is water in it, which should be the place where the tribesmen drink water.In the center of the square is a high platform with several large stones on which some patterns are engraved and some animal skin strips of different colors are tied, which looks like a place for sacrifices.

There were three circles of thatched houses in the village. Jisang and Zhao Yunxiao walked through the third circle of thatched houses under the watchful eyes of everyone in the tribe, and stopped after going up a slope.Ahead is a place surrounded by fences, and Zhao Yunxiao knew where it was as soon as he walked in. He nodded to express his understanding.Jisang took Zhao Yunxiao's hand and walked back.Without modern facilities, there will naturally be an unpleasant smell in the village, but there is basically no smell in the cave, because Yunhuo itself likes to be clean, and Zhao Yunxiao also cleaned Yunhuo very cleanly, but here, people There are many, and the environment is so simple, Zhao Yunxiao is not picky.

Zhao Yunxiao didn't find it easy to know where to go to the toilet. He still liked Yunhuo to take him to a random place, because he could feel at ease and safe where Yunhuo was.Back at Jisang's home, Zhao Yunxiao dug out the soap and washbasin.There were two packages, the pots and bowls were in one package, and the washbasin was in the other package. The clouds and fires were all sorted and packed, but Zhao Yunxiao was even more depressed.

Jisang stared curiously at the things in Zhao Yunxiao's hand again.Soap was also invented by Zhao Yunxiao by himself.Yunhuo picked a lot of soapwort for him to take a bath in. After the soapwort is dried, the washing effect is not very good.Zhao Yunxiao searched for the method of making handmade soap on the tablet book.The production method is not too difficult, but Zhao Yunxiao can only look at it, because he has no tools and not so many professional materials.Then he searched for "the ancients took a bath" and found dozens of books that described the ancients' bathing methods, and then found an ancient soap called "pig pancreas" used by the ancients.

Pig pancreas is a kind of thing made of pig pancreas as the main material that can replace soap for bathing.There are no pigs here, but there is an animal that looks like a pig and has wings and flies.Zhao Yunxiao drew a simple picture of a flying pig on the ground, and Yunhuo brought back a clean flying pig an hour later.Zhao Yunxiao really found the pancreas of the flying pig according to the pictures, and after several failed attempts, he made a paste made of red bean powder, saponin powder, and vanilla powder mixed with pig pancreas, mixed evenly, and then air-dried to make it soap.It's easy to say, but difficult to do, otherwise Zhao Yunxiao wouldn't have failed several times.

The ancients called this "bath bean", and Zhao Yunxiao is more used to calling it soap. Of course, the ancient people's bath bean production process and materials are more complicated than his, and the effect is naturally better, but soap can be made in such an environment , Zhao Yunxiao is satisfied enough to sleep well.After washing with this soap, the skin will not be as dry and tight as after washing with soapwort, and it will be more comfortable to apply a little bit of his own moisturizer, especially now that the weather is cold and the skin is prone to dryness.The skin of neutral people does not need to use all kinds of skin care products and cosmetics like women, just apply a simple moisturizer.Human beings in today's society, regardless of men, women or neutrals, will pay attention to taking care of their skin.But here, Zhao Yunxiao can only rely on himself.Fortunately, he has a versatile cornucopia - Yunhuo, which always brings him surprises when he has a headache for certain materials.

Washing his hands with soap, Zhao Yunxiao inevitably thought of Yunhuo again, Yunhuo has been completely engraved into his body, he thinks about Yunhuo all the time.After washing his hands and drying them, Zhao Yunxiao didn't worry this time, he poured the washing water into the drainage ditch.Back at the hut, I saw Jisan studying with his soap.

"What is this?" Jisan asked curiously.Fragrant, because it has just been touched with water, it is still a little slippery.

Zhao Yunxiao saw that the other party was asking what it was, but the problem was that he couldn't explain it.The pot of water in the hot water bag had been placed next to the stove, and Zhao Yunxiao went over to touch it, because Kang Ding was cooking and the stove was still burning, so the pot of water was still hot.Zhao Yunxiao poured all the water in the pot into the washbasin, then added a little cold water, and waved to Jisang.Jisan walked over to squat down, wiping the soap.Zhao Yunxiao took the soap and pressed Jisang's hands into the basin with one hand.Jisang saw that the other party asked him to wash his hands, he washed his hands, and then Zhao Yunxi gave him the soap.Jisang imitated what Zhao Yunxiao did just now, and used soap to make a little foam on his hands, then rubbed and washed them.The water in the basin became a bit muddy, Jisang's face was filled with joy, and he washed his hands again.

Zhao Yunxiao poured clean water on Jisang's hands to wash him clean.He added soapwort to his soap, so his soap is completely clean to use.The reason why he used hot water was that he didn't want Jisang to touch cold water. He felt that Jisang's stomach problems were also related to the lack of warmth.Jisang only feels that his hands are moisturized, unlike the dryness after washing with yellow juice grass (sapwort), and there is a nice fragrance after washing with this.Zhao Yunxiao went to pour water again.Jisan, who had wiped his hands clean, held the soap with a small piece of animal skin, and liked it very much.

When Zhao Yunxiao came back and saw Jisang smiling at the piece of soap, he couldn't help being a little happy.Both he and Jisang love Yunhuo, but neither can be with Yunhuo.Sadness appeared in his eyes, Zhao Yunxiao took a deep breath, went back to Jisang's room and dug out another piece of brand new soap from his package.When he came out, he held the leaf-wrapped soap in both hands and handed it to Jisan: "For you."

Jisang took it curiously, opened the leaf and saw that it was a round black thing he had just used, and looked up at Zhao Yunxiao.Zhao Yunxiao pushed Jisang's hand back, showing a smile: "Give it to you."

Jisang swallowed, and smiled back gently: "Thank you."

The friendship between the two was confirmed at this moment.Zhao Yunxiao put back the bar of soap he used, and put back the washbasin and everything else.Temporarily having nothing to do, Zhao Yunxiao hid in Jisang's room. He didn't want to face Kang Ding, and he had nowhere to go.Jisang walked in holding the precious piece of "black cake" and closed the door.Putting the black cake next to the pillow, he patted his bed to let Zhao Yunxiao rest.He liked the female of Tuzo very much.

"My name is Yunxiao." If there is silence, Zhao Yunxiao will feel flustered, and Zhao Yunxiao has nothing to say.

Jisang reacted for a while, and said with a little weakness: "Jisan. Ji, Sang."

Zhao Yunxiao blinked and pointed to himself: "Yunxiao, Yunxiao."

"Ji, San."

The two read their names in the room and let each other learn.Kang Ding listened with pricked ears, a little relieved, he was afraid that the female would be in trouble if she didn't eat or drink like before.

Lying on Jisang's bed, Zhao Yunxiao's mind was full of clouds and fire.Jisang lay beside him, thinking of the son he had only glanced at briefly.Both of them were very tired. Ji Sang closed his eyes first, and gradually, Zhao Yunxiao also closed his eyes.The bed under him was a bit hard and not warm enough, unlike the bed in the cave, Yunhuo was covered with several layers of animal skins, soft hay, and big leaves, and would turn into a wild beast for him to nest in his arms at night , because he was afraid that he would not sleep well.Yunhuoyunhuo... Zhao Yunxiao turned around, turned his back to Jisang, and tears rolled down his face.
