Chapter 57
Gu Xi woke up in the familiar smell of bone broth, his shoulder was still dull and dull pain, there was a hairy touch under his hand, and the little thing twisted his head under his hand, Gu Xi looked down and saw that it was An An!
The big stone hanging in his heart fell in an instant, An An was there, Huo Bai was there, he must have been fine, he was really afraid of falling into the hands of the Eagle Clan again.
An An lay on Gu Xi's left hand side, and as soon as he heard the movement of Gu Xi waking up, he stood up excitedly, and he carefully stretched out his tongue and licked Gu Xi's cheek, his eyes full of worry.
Gu Xi touched his head, glanced at the current environment, in the relatively spacious stone house, there were only a few jars in the air, and he was only lying on the ground with animal skins, and it was early morning outside, and he could vaguely see figures walking back and forth.
At this time, Huo Bai walked in with two stone bowls, and his resolute and handsome face turned against the light, looking at him gently.
Gu Xi's nose was sour, he was not such a fragile person, but when he was arrested, he thought a lot, if something bad happened to him, what would Huo Bai and An An do, what he was most afraid of was that he couldn't accompany Huo Bai to the end of his life, they were already inseparable.
Huo Bai put a bowl next to him, carried An An and let him eat, while he sat down against the wall, carefully helped Gu Xi into his arms, and let Gu Xi sit on his chest.
"It's okay" he said gently, and the movement of his subordinates holding the bowl was very light, for fear of touching Gu Xi's wound, "I haven't eaten for a day, come and ......"
Gu Xi tried to move his arm, only to find that the wounds on both sides hurt as long as he moved slightly, he looked at the spoon handed to his mouth and simply stopped moving, and asked Huo Bai to feed him with peace of mind.
He had slept for a day, and his stomach was already hungry, Huo Bai's cooking skills were very good, the bone broth was light and not fatty, sprinkled with a little green onion, and the lean meat was boiled, and it was easy to bite into it.
Gu Xi ate two large bowls with satisfaction, and the cold body with excessive blood loss felt warm, and the whole person was relieved, An An also ate two bowls, and a lot of meat entered his stomach, which would turn his belly and lean on Gu Xi, but unfortunately Gu Xi's animal skin couldn't move, otherwise he would be able to help him scratch his belly.
Gu Xi noticed the movement outside the stone house, there were always people coming and going outside, there were winged orcs and sub-beasts, they would sneak a glance at the room where he and Huo Bai were from time to time, and there was timidity in their eyes, especially the moment Huo Bai turned his head, those people would flee like a gust of wind.
Gu Xi looked at Huo Bai suspiciously.
Huo Bai had a cold face and didn't speak.
Gu Xi lowered his head and couldn't hold back his laughter, he estimated that he ...... Huo Bai crushed the other party with violence, he often accompanied Huo Bai to hunt, how powerful Huo Bai was, he knew it, Huo Bai was even more powerful than when he first met him, he never gave up on being strong.
At this time, the patriarch of the Eagle Clan was quietly squatting in the corner of his house, his arm was still sore and unbearable, if it weren't for Huo Bai's face-saving arm back, he would have thought that he would be crippled, and even wanted to die for it.
Unexpectedly, Huo Bai saved himself......
"Patriarch ......" Qingyi cautiously walked into the house, seeing Feng Qing bowing his head and decadent appearance, he was very worried, he didn't dare to say anything more about his good partner Feng Qing, Feng Qing is the son of the previous patriarch, the patriarch only had this son when he was very old, he was very favored, and Feng Qing has been very powerful since he was a child, and the whole tribe has pursued him as the most powerful warrior.
In fact, Feng Qing's combat effectiveness is not weak, but he met Huo Bai.
Compared to the beast type, one is the overlord of the sky and the other is the overlord of the land.
Therefore, Huo Bai chose a duel, this is the most traditional way to solve it, the Eagle Clan, as a large tribe, has already passed the barbaric period, and there will be no situation like the extreme northern tribe, and the further south the settlement, the faster the civilization will develop.
Judging from the utensils in the house, there are already rudimentary forms of tableware, and even outside the house, there is a simple yard surrounded by stones, and the people here have a sense of self-territory.
And if it weren't for Gu Xi's arrival, the Tiger Clan would still stay in the lifestyle of living in caves.
Qingyi was already ready with a full stomach full of words, thinking about how to comfort the patriarch.
I saw Feng Qing suddenly stand up, Qingyi looked at his face full of excitement, and suddenly had a bad premonition...... Something seems to be going to happen again......
"Qingyi, Huo Bai's fight is too powerful!" Feng Qing's eyes were shining, and those movements that he had never seen before all attracted him.
"Yes...... It's amazing," Qingyi nodded uneasily.
"I've decided, I'm going to fight with Huo Baixue!" Feng Qing seemed to be very satisfied with his decision, and ran out after speaking.
"But...... Are you really not afraid of being beaten......" Qingyi's words were left far behind him, has he really forgotten that he hurt his partner......
Gu Xi leaned against the soft animal skin and watched Huo Bai sit aside and sort out their bags.
This delay, he has to wait until his injuries are healed before he can set off to the south, he needs to heal his injuries in the Eagle Clan, fortunately, there are herbs here that are specifically for scratches, and it will only take seven or eight days to get better, and he can set off when the wounds heal and stutter.
At this moment, Huo Bai stood up violently, looked out of the house with an unkind face, and An An also stood up, grinning and yelling outside.
It turned out to be the eagle patriarch who scratched himself, Feng Qing.
He looked excited, and before Huo Bai could make any moves, he made a move.
Gu Xi looked out the door dumbfounded at the culprit who caused his injury.
Painting style...... Something seems wrong......
"Huo Bai, you are too powerful, I want to learn to fight with you, you can teach me!" The other party didn't seem to see Huo Bai's gloomy expression that was almost exploding at all, and said to himself, with a look of anticipation, which was very contrary to his knife-sharp appearance.
Seeing that Huo Bai didn't react, he turned to Gu Xi again, his expression was very sincere and shy: "Hey, I was wrong before, I'm sorry I hurt you, but I really like you, I took a fancy to it at first sight, and when my mother and father were there, I taught me to start immediately when I saw what I liked!" It's a pity that your partner is just too powerful! But don't worry, the herbs of our Eagle Clan are very powerful, and they will be cured in a few days! ”
Gu Xi just wanted to hold his forehead at this time, but unfortunately his arm couldn't move, he didn't even need to look at it, he could imagine what Huo Bai's face was when he had his back to him.
"Get out of ......" Huo Bai couldn't bear it.
Feng Qing showed a small expression of injury, his eyes were not big, and he looked very funny.
"Brother...... You go back first, let them have a good rest" Hua Que, who rushed to hear the news, hurriedly grabbed his brother.
Feng Qing had no choice but to nod and reluctantly left.
I thought I would finally be able to clean up for a while, but I didn't expect that just after lunch, there was movement in the yard again.
I saw the beast-shaped Feng Qing slowly descending from the sky, grabbing this large beast on his claws, which seemed to be a thick-skinned beast, and threw it into the yard.
"This is my gift!" With that, he flew away again.
The pachyderm had its neck broken by the talons, and after a while it was left on the ground, it left a lot of blood......
"Ahem...... You'd better deal with it...... It smells so bad," Gu Xi said.
After Huo Bai had just dealt with the thick-skinned beast, Feng Qing flew over again, clutching a net made of straw rope on his paws, and all kinds of large fruits in the net...... Grunts rolled all over the yard.
Gu Xi couldn't cry or laugh, but he didn't accept it.
Hua Que stood outside the courtyard and said very apologetically: "Please don't mind, my brother also wants to express his apologies, these foods are edible, some are only available in our high mountains, you can taste them." As he spoke, he picked out some fruits he knew and gave them to Gu Xi.
Gu Xi was even more unkind, there were some of these fruits that he knew and some that he didn't know, which really made him discover some fruits that were not available in the north.
This apple-sized green fruit tastes the same as a jujube, and it is a pure wild mountain jujube in the high mountains, with enough water and is very sweet.
There's kiwi in them! The kiwi fruit is the size of two fists, but it is not soft, but it looks exactly like the present world.
"It's going to be sweet when it gets softer, but it's going to take a while, and the sub-beasts of our clan love to eat it," Hua Que explained.
Gu Xi comforted himself while nibbling on green dates, this trip was not in vain.
At noon, Huo Bai changed the fish soup and brought it in, sprinkled with green onions, which was very fragrant.
Hua Que is a sub-beast with a lot of words, he is actually younger than Gu Xi, he has just become an adult, he smells the fragrance, sniffs, and stares at the bowl in Huo Bai's hand with envy.
"The things you make are delicious......" When he saw Huo Bai boiling bone broth in the morning, he noticed that Huo Bai had dragged a few small grasses among the weeds, and the taste was immediately different, so he also dragged a few and chewed them directly in his mouth, but it was not delicious at all.
But he still held back, this was specially done by Huo Bai for Gu Xi, but he knew how domineering and protective this orc was, he didn't dare to ask for it......
Gu Xi silently ate Huo Bai's shaved fish, I heard that it was a live fish in the spring water on the mountain, and the water in which the soup was boiled was also a mountain spring, not to mention how delicious it was!
Look at Hua Que swallowing saliva again, and glanced at Huo Bai.
Huo Bai put away his stinky face and said, "There are a lot of them outside, I'm going to redo a new one in the afternoon, you can take it and eat it!" ”
Hua Que was stunned for a long time before he reacted, his face was flushed, and when he saw Gu Xi nodding, he ran to the yard excitedly, picked up the stone pot and left. "I'll go first!" ”
"Hey...... Remember to return the pot......" Gu Xi shouted.
Hua Que nodded again and again, and ran away with a smoke.
"Huo Bai, I'm really fine" There were only the two of them at this time, Gu Xi said.
Huo Bai sat beside him without saying a word.
"It's not your fault, you can't help this kind of emergency, and I'm fine," Gu Xi said, resting his head on Huo Bai's shoulder.
It took a long time before Huo Bai spoke: "This is the last time, I will never let you be hurt again." ”
Gu Xi nodded lightly and leaned on Huo Bai with satisfaction.
An An, who was already asleep, rolled over and fell asleep on all fours.
