All the people returned to the castle, and the courtyard of the castle was littered with the corpses of savages, and the corpses of giants were also killed by arrows. The scene has begun to clean up the bodies, shoveling blood stains on the ground. According to their custom, they cut open the internal organs of the giant's corpse, took out the internal organs, manually dehydrated it, poured rosin into the body, sprinkled a large amount of rock lime to decompose the body water, and then loaded the corpse into a coffin filled with sand and went to the desert for landfilling.

Ruolan only saw them do this, and she later heard that this burial method handed down by the Qiang giant tribe for generations was to prevent the corpse from rotting, and even if the coffin decayed after many years, the corpse would be kept intact forever.

Order in the castle was restored, all the giants on patrol were in place, and the second day onwards, they slaughtered horses, stewed, roasted meat, and drank wine and celebrated for a whole day. Yi Lingzhi sat next to us with several women, the pregnant giant woman was closest to you, but Wu Si didn't feel her presence at all, and held Yi Lingzhi and the woman next to him in his arms.

Ruolan walked into Wusi from the crowd and called him to the side of no one, "Brother, you shouldn't have snubbed the pregnant giant. "Now that the castle is ours, we need them, and sometimes peace needs to be bought in disguise, so that all obstacles can be swept away." ”

Wu Si raised his eyebrows, "Ruolan has grown up, you are right to remind you, you have the talent to be a military advisor." ”

"Brother, don't make fun of me. Ruolan smiled, "People are not reckless teenagers, my brother can be regarded as a rash once, I only hope that my brother can be a good king of the Yanqi tribe, can love the herdsmen, be considerate of his subordinates, and care about the people around him, especially these giants, they have worked hard to win the castle for you, don't treat them slowly." ”

Wu Si snorted, "You still say that you don't have the talent to be a military advisor? Little ghost, I haven't seen it for two years and have become so observant and eloquent, I am really impressed by you." ”

"It's the result of growth. Ruolan smiled, "Go and accompany your giant pregnant woman, she's watching you." She glanced at the giant in the distance and said.

"My miss, please rest assured. Wus took a few steps back and turned to leave, and he sat the Giant Pregnant Woman beside him, and a sweet smile immediately appeared on the Giant Pregnant Woman's face.

Ruolan retreated from the crowd, and she walked alone through the castle square, with a spiral staircase, and stepped into the castle's tower. It was already dark, and the great bloody remnant sun of a moment ago had completely sunk below the horizon, and the cold night was now densely covering every inch of the castle's ground.

All that remained of the castle was the sporadic lights shining through the windows of the houses, and the castle in the distance was still the same as before, nothing had changed, but all the people had changed, the father and mother were gone, and all the relatives were gone. She looked at the firelit castle and shed endless tears, she could bite her lip and hold the cry down to her chest, but she never made a sound.

Someone handed a handkerchief, Ruolan turned around to be a giant boy, he lowered his head, focused his gaze on the tears on Ruolan's cheeks, and wiped away the tears for her, "I will protect you." He said in common language.

"Do you speak the lingua franca?" Ruolan asked excitedly.

"I will protect you. The Giant Boy repeated the phrase again.

"Is that all you have to say?"

The giant boy lifted Ruolan, took her into his arms, and walked down the spiral staircase. The giant boy's arms were warm, like his mother when she was a child when she was held in her arms, the corners of his mouth pulled into a smile, his long, messy brown hair floated to his shoulders, and his eyes were like blue amber. Enter a hallway room, put her inside, then walk out of the room, close the door and leave.

Ruolan stood in the center of the living room and turned around, "This is my room. She muttered to herself, the faint candle on the candlestick was lit, and a tiger-skin futon was spread on the couch of the wooden bed. The most important thing is that there is a mirror in the room that can reflect her own shadow, Ruolan has looked at her face in the water, but she has never looked in the mirror, so she stands in front of the mirror, and the appearance of a young lady is displayed in front of the mirror.
