With Gleason's cooperation, Jian Ling's research on acupuncture points progressed quickly, and five months passed in a flash.

Seeing that the rainy season is coming again, the beast tribe is busy, and all the beasts and beasts are almost out of their nests to strengthen the defenses. Not only that, but all the food hidden under the kitchen had to be moved.

Even Gleason, who had always focused on research, put down his work and joined them at this time.

Jian Ling didn't understand their intentions at first, but later, under Arjun's explanation, she learned that the first half month of the rainy season was the craziest time for all animals and plants, animals were fighting for food that had just grown, and plants would also grow wantonly in order to survive, and try their best to rob other plants of nutrients.

What's even more terrifying is that the rain at this time is not clean, mixed with the acid accumulated during the dry season, which can corrode human skin, and some organisms can even produce various mutations as a result.

Those animals that usually seem gentle and harmless will turn into evil ghosts that eat people and do not spit out bones, and those ordinary plants will suddenly grow sharp serrations and claws. The arrival of the rain will plunge all living things into madness, and it will be a battle for life and death.

Creatures that have lost their minds can do anything, and in the past few years, every time the rainy season arrives, mutated creatures have attacked the beast tribes. In the first few times, the beasts were caught off guard and suddenly miserable.

After learning their lessons, the beasts began to build a defensive wall. And divert food and water to minimize losses.

Jian Ling was a little puzzled: "Why don't you try to repel these mutant creatures?" Always avoided like this, and it always didn't feel like the style of the orcs. ”

"Why do you have to fight for things that can be avoided?" Arjun carries a bag of sun-dried green python meat out of the cellar. On the tip of the tall nose, there were a few crystal clear beads of sweat, "Those mutated creatures." The attack power should not be underestimated, and we may not be able to get advantage from them head-to-head. The number of our beast clans is already small, if there is any damage because of such a trivial matter, do you think it is worth it? ”

Jian Ling nodded clearly: "It's really not worth it." ”

Those mutated creatures are dead, and maybe they will grow again the next year, but the orcs. Dead is dead, and there will be no more.

Even if all the mutated creatures are really repelled, as long as one orc suffers, even if the orc loses a lot, this business really can't be worth it.

Under the leadership of Arjun. The people in the kitchen worked together to transfer all the food to a secret cave in the back mountain. This was the first time Jian Ling had come to this so-called secret hiding base, and it was a little fresh, so he took a few more looks.

As soon as you enter the cave, it is a flat open space, the area is quite large, the height is seven or eight meters, and there are several small holes at the top, which can be transmitted to light and ventilation. Walk through the clearing. There are hundreds of almost identical entrances, all of which are almost identical in appearance, and at a glance, there is no bottom.

Arjun, who was walking in the front, didn't look at it much, picked up one of the entrances and walked in. Jian Ling and the other four mothers-in-law followed closely. Walking along this passage, he came across five more forks in the road, each of which did not seem to be any different, but Arjun was still able to find the right passage without hesitation.

After walking for about ten minutes, they finally arrived at their destination.

Next to a deep well.

Jian Ling looked at the bottom of the well, it was pitch black inside, and he couldn't see anything: "Are we going to jump?" ”

Arjun put down the food bag in his hand, turned over the dirt in a small corner by the well, and gently pressed the stone, and immediately poked out a virtual interface. He operated on the virtual interface with both hands, and with his operation, the original quaint and old abandoned well slowly turned into a silver material, and various strange geometric patterns climbed on the surface.

The patterns flew up as if they were alive, and combined in mid-air to form a large silver-gray gate.

Arjun stopped the operation, got up, pushed open the door, and glanced back at Jian Ling and the others: "Let's go." ”

As soon as the group entered, the silver-gray gate immediately changed back into its pattern, reattached to the well, and disappeared without a trace.

Jian Ling followed behind Arjun, passed through a short black tunnel, and finally came to the real hidden base of the beast clan.

When they stepped out of the tunnel, they found themselves in a small cavern in the rock wall, and from this height, they could clearly see the shape of the entire base.

A large green field with green grass and rolling hills. On each hill, three or four small windows were hewn out. Arjun said that inside each window was a small house, which was specially designed to house the orcs who had come here to take refuge.

In the middle of the field, there is a solemn castle with a red dome and a black flag painted with the totem of the beast clan hanging at the top.

Arjun said that it was the residence of the patriarchs of the past, and it was also a place for meetings and official affairs of the beasts.

After saying that, Arjun conjured into a complete beast form, a huge snow-white Samoyed.

He took all the food bags on Jian Ling and the others, carried them on his body, jumped from the rock wall to the ground, and then ran to the place where the grain was stored, and soon disappeared from sight.

Jian Ling thought that this was the completion of the task and planned to return the same way, but was pulled by a mother-in-law beside her: "We have to stay here." ”

Jian Ling looked at her with some surprise: "Why?" ”

"It's a rule, and every year at this time, all the mothers and cubs have to hide here in advance to avoid accidents in the chaos. If you don't believe me, you can wait until Arjun comes back and he will tell you the truth. ”

It didn't take long for Arjun to come back in a relaxed state, Jian Ling asked about staying here, and his answer was simple: "Well, that's true, from now on, you all have to stay here." ”

Jian Ling said: "But my luggage is still in the room, there are my research materials in it, it must not be lost, can I take them?" ”

"No, I can't disobey the patriarch's orders, as for your luggage, I can go and bring it for you."

Hearing him say this, Jian Ling stopped pestering, nodded and said, "Then it's up to you." ”

"It's a good effort," Arjun wagged his tail absently, "I'll go first, you stay here and don't run around, if nothing else, there are still eight days before the rainy season, and the rest of the clan will all gather here during these eight days." ”

With that, he turned and left.

Jian Ling and the four mothers-in-law slowly slid down the vine stairs next to them to the ground, and then found their respective residences.

The so-called shelter is actually a basement, and the more satisfying thing is that this basement is neatly furnished. The area is not large, one bedroom and one living room, plus a set of kitchen and bathroom, which is indeed enough.

As soon as he settled down, before Jian Ling had heated up his stool, the mothers-in-law knocked on the door with snacks made by themselves.

They were also idle and bored, and came to chat with Jian Ling.

The five female beasts sat on the small sofa, chatting while munching on melon seeds.

Don't look at the age of the four mothers-in-law, but the speed of swallowing melon seeds is quite quick, Jian Ling almost didn't see how they put melon seeds in their mouths, and the skin of melon seeds was already spit out by them. As for the content of their chat, of course, it is all kinds of gossip in the beast clan.

Facts have proved that both female humans and maternal beasts have a natural attachment to public opinion gossip.

Since the beast clan has never had a young female beast over the years, the scandals that have been passed around are nothing more than old news from previous years. It's different now, Jian Ling is here, a young and beautiful female beast, no matter where she goes, the return rate is 100%!

For this reason, the four mothers-in-law enthusiastically advised her on how to deal with the pursuit of the young male beasts, and to hold the hearts of all the male beasts firmly in the palm of her hand without offending anyone.

Looking at their heroic appearance of pointing at the country and scolding Fang Xuan, Jian Ling said expressionlessly: "I already have a husband and children. ”

"What does it matter, our beasts are all polyandry, it doesn't matter how many husbands you want!"

"My husband is a human, not an orc, there is a promise of life and death between me and him, I can't break my promise, this is the principle of being a man."

Hearing her say this, the enthusiasm of the four mothers-in-law finally faded, they looked at Jian Ling's eyes, and saw that she didn't seem to be deliberately looking for excuses, and couldn't help but be a little curious: "That human being is really so good, can you give up so many excellent male beasts?" ”

"He can't say how good he is, he doesn't speak well, he does things domineeringly, and he always likes to make people so angry that he wants to vomit when he has nothing to do, but I just fell in love with him like this, and even I couldn't figure out what was going on."

The four mothers-in-law looked at each other, able to understand her feelings, but a little unable to understand her decision: "Since he is so bad, you can choose to leave him, the beast clan has so many excellent young men for you to choose from." ”

Jian Ling smiled: "If love can be chosen, is it still love?" ”

Her honesty made the four mothers-in-law feel even more pity while appreciating it. They hoped that Jian Ling would be able to breed offspring for the beast clan, but Jian Ling's attitude was so firm that their persuasion was of no avail.

In desperation, they had to put aside the idea of persuading Jian Ling for the time being, and see if they could soften Jian Ling in other ways.

After sending off the four enthusiastic mothers-in-law, Jian Ling lay on the sofa in a daze, not knowing what to do in this place where there was no Internet and no TV. What she didn't expect was that only half a day later, Gleason came here with more than a dozen boxes of books.

Seeing that he was the only one who came, Jian Ling expressed some curiosity: "Why didn't you stay on it to help?" ”

Gleason lifted his glasses and coughed dryly: "There are enough of them, and I have nothing to do if I stay here, so I just came here early." ”

He won't say that the reason why he was driven down early was because those people disliked him for having no strength to work, which was an absolute shame for a male beast! Although, this shame is staged once a year......
