Chapter 434: [World!Brother is back!]
Chapter 434 [World! Brother is Back!]
Anicee gently shook the whip in his hand.
The dark eyes stared at the lamb in front of him...... The largest one is called the skin, and my grandmother said that when the winter is cold, she will use the skin of the skin to make a new felt for herself, and if there is excess material, you can find a herdsman with good craftsmanship to make a pair of boots.
But Anicee has always been a little unbearable, the voice of the skin is soft, and the temperament is also docile, unlike other sheep who like to run around, always have to chase after him with his own whip. It always likes to stand still and graze, and when it is full, it will lie down in the grass nest and nap.
In winter, Anicee likes to sleep with his skin in his arms, and he has a warm feeling on his body, and even the dog at home likes to drill into his skin.
But Grandma said that she must kill the skin for the winter this year - it is too old and can no longer produce milk.
Whenever she thought of her grandmother's words, Anice's heart felt a little melancholy—of course, at her age, she didn't know what melancholy meant.
Life for herders is becoming increasingly difficult.
Last month, Abba and his brother were gone, taken away by a group of people on horseback and with scimitars.
Abba didn't speak when he left, and his brother hugged him and shed tears, telling him to take good care of his aunt and brother.
Anicee asked his brother when he would be able to return, and he said that he would be able to return home as long as he defeated the Rolanders on the other side of the desert.
My brother is only 16 years old, and last year's grandmother said that she would find him a wife this year, and said that if a young man doesn't have a wife, he won't be able to live at all.
Anicei knew that many girls in the tribe liked her brother, so Toya once quietly stuffed herself with a handkerchief and asked her to give it to her brother.
The handkerchief was returned from the Roland merchants.
Actually, Anice likes the Rolanders, they always bring something weird and funny. The handkerchief embroidered with flowers was given to him by my brother. Every time Anicee touched the delicate patterns on it, she thought to herself. If only I could embroider such beautiful flowers myself.
Grandma said that Abba and his brother had gone to war, and it would be a long, long time before they returned.
The younger brother is only six years old and can't even ride a horse. My grandmother said that there was no man in the family who taught her younger brother to ride a horse - as a child on the prairie, he would be laughed at if he could not ride a horse. So my grandmother ran to beg for someone, and after begging for a long time, she found Uncle Hukot in the tribe to teach her younger brother.
Uncle Hukot was very old, very old, and he was still lame. For this reason, when Abba and his brother were taken away by those cavalry. Uncle Hukot remained in the tribe.
Uncle Hukot was a good man, but every time he taught his brother to ride a horse, he would hold his brother and cry, saying that his brother was a poor child.
He would also tie a fun straw man for Anicese and his brother to play with.
Unfortunately, a few days earlier, Uncle Hucot had also been taken away - although he was lame, he was still captured by the cavalry.
Listening to Grandma, the king of the grassland gave the latest order, all the men on the grassland. From the age of fifteen to fifty, he had to join the army and fight for him. Anyone who did not listen to the king of the steppe would be beheaded. An entire tribe will be turned into slaves.
But Abba and his brother and the men of the tribe were taken away, but life was still getting more and more difficult.
I heard that a few days ago, another tribe was sent by the steppe king to attack the army without stopping the order of the steppe king. Those who fought set a fire and burned down a large area of pasture.
Many tribes have been affected and are on the move.
The original pastures of the Anicei tribe. Snatched by a lot of outsiders. There are not many men in the tribe anymore, so naturally they can't rob others, so they can only retreat step by step.
Those foreign tribes are hateful, like robbers, who rob not only pastures, but also cattle and sheep, and horses.
Anice, her grandmother and her younger brother wandered with the tribe, and every time she was so worried that she left the pasture, what if her brother and Abba came back and couldn't find us?
Sitting by the river, young Anicee looked at the lambs grazing on the shore and sighed softly.
A pair of little feet soaked in the river, the cold river water made her very comfortable, and she bit a piece of grass in her mouth - Anicee is already very experienced, chewing this grass, the grass juice is very astringent at first, but as long as she chews it for a while, it will slowly, slowly, feel a hint of sweetness.
Recently, everyone has not been able to eat much, and food has been getting less and less. Seeing that autumn was already halfway over and the pastures were getting withered, Anicee once overheard Grandma and others complaining that they didn't know how many people would starve to death this winter.
Anicee was scared.
She was afraid of starvation, and it was a very unpleasant thing to starve.
But now there is no fertile pasture, the cattle and sheep are not full, and the hungry sheep naturally do not produce milk. The little lamb screamed with hunger every day, and Grandma said that if it didn't work, it would have to be killed.
Sighing softly, Anicee suddenly heard some wind, and she raised her head vigilantly and looked around.
It's not far from the Holy Mountain.
Sitting on the riverside, you can clearly see the mountains in the distance, and when the weather is good, you can see that the snow lines on the mountains are all white.
Grandma said that the god who lives on the mountain will bless us grassland people.
When he was young, his brother also said that when he grew up, he wanted to go up to the snowy mountains and become a servant of God.
The servants of the gods, sometimes coming down from the mountains to the tribes, as Anicei saw once, liked to wear strange robes, and everyone saluted them, but they were very polite.
Two years ago, a servant of God had come to stay in the tribe for one night, and the elder brother had secretly gone and stood outside the tent all night, and at dawn the servant of the god had said a few words to the elder brother, and the elder brother never mentioned the matter of going up the mountain again.
Anicei asked his brother what the servants of God said to him, and his brother's reaction was very annoyed, and he, who had never been angry with his younger brothers and sisters, pushed Anicee hard and said viciously: I want you to take care of it!
Anicechai must have been rejected by God's servants.
This sacred mountain is not to be approached casually. Shepherds, in particular, are not allowed to graze their cattle under the mountains.
Although the aquatic plants here are the fattest in the entire grassland. Although the water from this river flowing down from the sacred mountain irrigates the pastures here, the water never stops, even in the cold of winter.
But there is a strict ban on the grasslands, and no tribe or herder is allowed to graze in this pasture under the holy mountain. Everyone feared that such an act would disturb the gods on the mountain, that they would be disrespectful to them, and that if they provoked the gods, they would bring disaster.
So, when Anicee was grazing here, she was always on the lookout.
She couldn't help it...... If you don't do anything else, all the sheep in the family will starve to death. If all the sheep die, then I, my grandmother and my brother will also die.
In fact, Anicee knew, except for herself. Several other children in the tribe were quietly doing the same thing.
After all, it's a child, and I don't have such a strong reverence for authority, and ...... Those divine servants who have come to the tribe don't seem to be so terrible.
Moreover...... Everyone is starving to death. No matter how severe the ban is, if people can't eat enough, then not many people will care about what kind of gods send disasters and the like.
Still, Anicee had to be careful, as she would drive the sheep out early in the morning. It took half a day to come to the vicinity of this pasture and graze sheep by the river. Rush back before dark.
Hides and other sheep love it, and even in late autumn, the grass is still fresh. It's just that the dog is a little unhappy. The black dog ran after the horse's butt, always sticking out his tongue and panting.
Grandma knew that Anicei would come here secretly to herd sheep, but Mama didn't say anything, and she didn't forbid Anicee to do so...... The family has to live.
Grandma just secretly confessed to Anice. Be careful, and if you get caught, leave the sheep alone. Just run away by yourself.
It is heard that the king's cavalry will appear nearby recently, patrolling along the river. Because the king of the steppe knew that more and more herdsmen were coming here to graze, this situation made the king of the steppe very unhappy, and he thought that this would anger the gods and bring disaster.
According to the tribesmen, the cavalry of the steppe king was very cruel, and they would catch the shepherds who were secretly grazing here, and then kill the people, stick a pole into the ground, and hang the corpses on it, with their faces facing the holy mountain, as a sign of repentance to the gods.
Thinking of this, Anicee suddenly heard some strange movement in the wind.
She jumped up from the ground with a thud, and then quickly crawled into the grass, and after a moment it was only half of her head that she showed her dark eyes and looked across the river from which the sound had come from.
Then, she saw a scene that made her breathe stop instantly:
Someone!!
......
It was a man, tall, skinny.
The man ran over with his hands dancing and threw himself into the river.
Anicee was scared!
She wondered if this guy would be the steppe king's cavalry, but she looked at the other side and didn't see a horse.
She didn't choose to run away...... Because the sheep were still grazing not far away—although Grandma said that if there was danger, she would run first, but Anicee was reluctant to give up the sheep and not to Pippi.
The guy in the water was yelling something, and he quickly took off his clothes—the clothes he had on him were tattered, and he threw them into the water.
When Anicee saw this, he finally understood: this guy was actually taking a bath!!
He was actually bathing in the river of the sacred mountain!!
Just when Anicee was dumbfounded, suddenly, a sudden time made her almost cry in fright.
When the dog heard the sound in the water, he suddenly sprang out of the grass, jumped to the shore, and barked at the young man in the water!
This nasty thing!!
Anicee was about to burst into tears.
She had never hated the dog so much. This dog is always like this...... It looks very fierce, but in fact it is very timid, and he always likes to cause trouble. Don't look at it now, but if you pick up a stick by any person, it will immediately turn around and run away.
The people of the tribe laughed at the Anices, saying that they had one of the most timid sheepdogs in the whole steppe.
Abba tried to kill the dog several times, but Anicei refused, because although the dog was timid and liked to cause trouble, Anicei liked it anyway: because he would jump in circles with Anice.
......
............
Chen Daolin went crazy and threw himself into the water!
"Cool! Cool!!"
Letting the icy river water cover his ears and eyes, Chen Daolin fluttered fiercely in the river for a long time, stabbing several fierce sons!
Then he frantically tore his clothes, tore them off, and threw them away!
Six years!!
Damn, it's been six years!!
What does it feel like to try not taking a shower for six years!!
Chen Daolin felt like he was about to go crazy!
Although in that small world. Because of the different rules of the world, that world doesn't seem to have the concept of "dirty", and staying in that world seems to be like even if you don't take a bath for the rest of your life, you haven't seen your body get dirty, and you haven't seen your clothes get rotten.
In that small world, you don't even have to eat!!
It was as if the transformation of energy in that small world followed a different rule...... Chen Daolin has been there for more than six years, and he is already going crazy!
No, to be exact, he's been crazy several times!
But after the madness is over. He will be regained his sanity by Lu Gao's guy in a brutal way -- Lu Gao's method is very simple: beat! Beat him hard!
For the first time in six years, I felt the cool water soaking my skin again, the first time I felt the water rippling over my skin, and the first time I flooded my ears and nose with water......
Chen Daolin felt that every cell in his body seemed to be cheering.
Although I didn't need to take a bath after six years in that world, the refreshing feeling of taking a bath was still irresistible!
It feels like sleeping...... Although magicians don't need to sleep, they only need to meditate, but the feeling of sleeping is irreplaceable.
Chen Daolin scrubbed his skin fiercely, rubbing his body red. I almost want to rub off a layer of skin on myself!
Of course, the body is not dirty, but after all, I haven't touched water in six years, this psychological feeling. But he couldn't stop the movement in his hand.
If he could, he would really like to give himself a new skin!
Just when Chen Daolin was so carried away that he almost forgot everything about the world around him......
A black shadow rushed out of the shore and stood on the shore. shook his head and barked fiercely at himself in the river.
"Woooo
Chen Daolin woke up in shock, and then raised his eyelids to look. I saw a skinny dog, barking at him.
The dog was black, thin, bared teeth, and looked fierce.
But as soon as Chen Daolin saw this black dog, stars suddenly popped up in his eyes!
He swallowed and foamed at the mouth, and his eyes were about to turn green!
It's been six years!It's been six years!!!
Lao Tzu has not drunk a sip of water for six years!
Six years without eating or drinking...... Although that damn little world doesn't appear hungry and doesn't need to eat......
But......
It's been six fucking years!!!Darlingo's mouth is fading out!!!
Now even if there is a piece of wood in front of him, Darling can't wait to pounce on it and nibble twice!
Let alone...... Is it a living creature?
"Autumn and winter tonic, the best ...... for dog meat"
Chen Daolin grinned and drooled, stood up from the river, and then strode ashore......
He ran over and over again, muttering to himself:
"Dog meat pot? Well, there are peppercorns in the ring, chili oil, and spiced star anise...... Damn it...... Dog Meat Pot! Dog Meat Pot !!!"
Probably because of the animal's natural instinct, or maybe the dog was really timid in the first place.
Originally, he barked at Chen Daolin and grinned his teeth, but he really looked at the human in front of him, drooling, and the green light in his eyes rushed up from the water, and the dog was suddenly scared!
It whined a few times, turned around with its tail between its legs and ran!
Chen Daolin won't let it run away. He laughed, stretched out his finger and gently volleyed in the air, and the dog immediately fell to the ground with a plop, unable to get up.
Chen Daolin pounced on it in a few steps and picked up the dog with one handful.
"Well, it's too thin, not much meat, not enough oil and water, but ...... It's a good tooth fight......"
The green light in Chen Daolin's eyes became more and more terrifying, and the dog was carried in his hand, and he didn't dare to bark, but just whined and pleaded.
"Please, that's useless, who told you to run out...... Brother has been hungry for six years and hasn't eaten......"
Chen Daolin muttered to himself:
"Well, let's bleed first, then peel the skin...... Stewed with bones and meat......"
Just when Chen Daolin was quickly thinking about how to rectify this delicious meal.
In the grass nest in the distance, suddenly another shadow sprang out.
It's a skinny little man.
Chen Daolin squinted his eyes and looked over.
A little girl, very young, only about her own chest, at most about ten years old, about the same age as Xia Xia.
His face was a little dirty, but his eyes were big and bright, and his brownish-black hair was slightly curly and he wore dirty little culottes—the traditional dress of the prairie girls, because the prairie people rode horses, but they did not wear skirts like the Roland girls. The women of the prairie wore a kind of jumpsuit that resembled a skirt.
The little girl was holding a small knife in her hand, and the blade was shiggling.
It was obvious that she was very nervous, and her big black eyes were full of fear, but she still jumped out, the knife in her hand, very hard, and the blade dangled towards Chen Daolin.
"You...... You let go of my dog, let go of it!"
A high-pitched voice.
......
Chen Daolin understood the little girl's words.
I stayed in that small world for six years! In addition to cultivation, cultivation is cultivation...... It's a day like this that makes people want to kill themselves!
So when he was bored and went crazy, Chen Daolin could only find something to do for himself, including talking nonsense with Lu Gao to pass the time: he learned the language of the grassland people from Lu Gao.
It's certainly not too good, but at least it makes sense.
The girl was obviously still very young...... It's just a child's age. She held a dangling knife and pointed it at herself, just to save her dog......
Belch...... Her dog?
Chen Daolin reacted.
He suddenly felt a little embarrassed.
After all, although Darling is a little shameless and undisciplined, he is generally a civilized person.
He can't do this kind of thing in front of other people's little girls, grabbing other people's pets and stewing them.
He smirked and dropped the dog at his feet.
The dog barked a few times and tried to get up, but he was probably too frightened, and he trembled, but he couldn't take a step.
"You...... You ......"
Anicee was already crying, and tears were clearly streaming across her face.
Tears flowed down her dirty face, creating two distinct tear stains. Where the tears passed, the original white and delicate skin was revealed.
Looking at the crying child in front of him, Chen Daolin sighed.
Damn it......
Lao Tzu practiced penance for six years! lived an inhuman life for six years! suffered so much and suffered many sins.
Finally fucking practiced peerless martial arts and went down the mountain......!
I wanted to announce loudly to the world: I, Uncle Darling, are back!!
But I didn't expect that the first thing I did when I re-entered the WTO was that I almost robbed a little girl's pet and ate it?
This...... It doesn't seem to be in line with the style of a master, right?
Chen Daolin quickly raised his hand and took two steps away, signaling that he would not do anything more to the dog.
Then he rolled his eyes, and suddenly he took something out of the storage ring.
It was a chocolate candy.
A cheap smile came out of someone's face: "Little girl, do you want to eat candy?" uh...... Don't you cry! My brother can play tricks, do you want to watch it?"
