Chapter 9: Talking to Death.
Bernie didn't bother about the title, "My name is Bernie, what's your name, is it Ixiu's partner?" ”
"I'm Zhong Xuyao. Not Ish's partner. Zhong Xuyao said with a dark face.
Zhong Xuyao's answer made Yi Xiu's face a little lost.
"Oh." Bernie leaned up and leaned closer to Zhong Xuyao, "You look so small." ”
Yi Xiu interjected, "It's not too early, I have to take her to Wu Lao first, and we'll talk when I have time later." With what he knew about Bernie, by the time she was done, it would probably be dark.
"Then I'll go too." Bernie looked up with a small face.
"However, the distance is a bit far." Yi Xiu is embarrassed.
"What's this?" Bernie shouted at the crowd washing hides in the distance, "Bout, Bout, come here." ”
In the crowd, a big man about 2.3 meters tall ran out, and he wiped the water on his hands, "Bernie." ”
"I'm going to Wu Lao's house." Bernie
"Okay." Bout picked up Bernie, "Let's go." ”
Bernie adjusted his posture and faced Zhong Xuyao, "Your name is Zhong Xuyao, right?" Where are you from, and why are you with Ixiu? ”
Zhong Xuyao had some black lines, twitching the corners of his mouth, "Are you all walking with your arms?" ”
"That's right." Bernie said, "There will be a lot of small gravel on the ground, and it will hurt to walk too much." I've wrapped it in animal skins, but it still hurts. ”
Bernie stretched out his feet and motioned for Zhong Xuyao to look.
Bernie's feet were simply wrapped in a piece of animal skin, as if he was afraid of being ground into the animal skin, and the binding was very loose, looking like it would fall off at any time.
Zhong Xuyao's face was already a little stiff, she had thought before that the life of the tribe might be worse, but she still didn't expect that it would be so bad. Their way of life is completely the way of life of uncivilized savages.
Seeing that he had no words with a white face, Bernie continued, "I can call you Tiny." What is on your feet is so good-looking, and what you have on you is also good-looking, and it looks so soft. Do all the people in your tribe wear it like that? ”
After a series of questions, Zhong Xuyao, who asked him, was a little dizzy, so he had to stretch out his feet helplessly, "These are shoes, in order to protect your feet from injury." As for the clothes, we all wear them like that, but unfortunately I probably won't be able to go back. Zhong Xuyao's eyes carried a trace of sadness. She is afraid that she will not be able to return to the original world.
"Then live with us." Bernie didn't care, "We have so few friends." ”
Zhong Xuyao temporarily put aside his worries, "I heard Yi Xiu say that you have 86 females here, shouldn't you have a lot of friends?" ”
"Now it's 84. Not much different from us. Most of them were children, and there were only about four or five of us at our age. "Bernie
"Not really." Zhong Xuyao couldn't help but let out a wail.
"I can't help it. We females are so weak that we don't know when we're going to die. There was a rare hint of sadness on Bernie's face.
"I'm sorry." Zhong Xuyao
"Nothing, we're used to it." Bernie laughed.
Death as a habit? Zhong Xuyao felt that he was afraid that he would never be able to get used to it. Shaking his head to shake off his annoyance, "You live in a cave? ”
Bernie smiled again in a blink of an eye, "Yes, the cave is cool, but it's too cold in winter. Last year, a little female froze to death. ”
"......" Zhong Xuyao suddenly felt that he had a talent for talking to death.
During the conversation, the group came to the foot of the mountain.
There is a semi-circular cave in the mountain, and several animal skins are hung at the mouth of the cave, which are used as doors.
A man about 40 years old, dressed in animal skins, came out of the cave, and when she saw Zhong Xuyao, her eyes could no longer be turned away.
Zhong Xuyao got off Yi Xiu's body, and there was a precedent for Bernie, but Zhong Xuyao still couldn't combine her with the female.
"Elder Wu." Ishu and Bout bent down and saluted.
"This is the little female you picked up. It's so good-looking. Elder Wu came up and took Zhong Xuyao's hand, "Child, welcome to the Xiwei tribe." ”
"Hello, in the future, please give me a lot of advice." Zhong Xuyao
Wu Lao excitedly pulled Zhong Xuyao towards the cave, "Come, come in." ”
Bernie pouted slightly, "Elder Wu is eccentric. Didn't even see me. ”
"You little troublemaker, every time I see you, it's not good." Elder Wu smiled kindly.
"Hehe, it's always a good thing this time. I've escorted Zhong Xuyao to you. Bernie affectionately held the witch elder's hand. The tone is full of coquettishness.
"Zhong Xuyao?" Wu Lao patted the back of Zhong Xuyao's hand, "I'll call you Xiaoxiao." ”
"Okay." Zhong Xuyao didn't care.
"Kid, how did you get picked up by Ixiu?"
At this time, a hearty laugh came from outside the cave, "Haha, I heard that Ixiu is back, and he also brought back a little female." ”
The crowd looked in the direction of the sound.
An iron tower-like man came in from outside the cave, his appearance was five points like that of Ish, his face was slashed, and he still had a little beard.
"Patriarch!" Bout bowed.
"Father." Ishi
"Uncle Patriarch." Bernie
"Hello uncle." Zhong Xuyao
The group saluted.
Barron smiled heartily, "No need to be polite. He came to the old witch and bent down slightly, "Old witch." ”
"You're here too, just right, let's talk together." Wu Lao said gently.
Zhong Xuyao's eyes moved slightly, it seemed that the most authoritative person in the entire tribe was the old witch in front of him.
Under the arrangement of Wu Lao, everyone sat on the ground.
"Tell me, Ish, how did you pick up this little female?" As soon as he sat down, Barron asked a little impatiently.
"It was in the Morlay Forest, where I found her while hunting." Ishi
Everyone present unconsciously took a deep breath.
Barron said uncertainly, "Are you sure it's the Forest of Morlay?" ”
"Yes. If it weren't for the children, Tiny would have been attacked by the hyena. "Ixiu
"Oh my God, little one, how did you end up in that kind of place?" Wu Lao had already been scared out of a cold sweat, a female who had no combat power, in such a place. It's going to be a hard time.
"I don't know. I'm obviously at home. Somehow I fainted, and when I woke up, I was already there. "Zhong Xuyao
Barron slapped the ground violently, "Damn, someone dares to attack a female, he is looking for death." ”
"It's too much to have such a person." Bernie was also indignant.
"Child, don't be afraid, if you come to the Xiwei tribe, then, the warriors of the entire Xiwei tribe are your strongest backing, and we will definitely help you avenge in the future." Wu Lao
"Thank you, Elder Wu." Zhong Xuyao
"Wu Lao. It's not early now, so I think it's better to arrange a small check-in first. Ishu suggested.
