Crossing to Live in the Wilderness Plains

Having been with the little wolf cub for a long time, A Jing has long been very familiar with the little wolf cub's breath. After searching around Qize City and not finding the other person's figure, he couldn't help but feel a little anxious, and his uneasiness gradually disappeared. Expanding, even the thought of whether the little wolf cub would disappear forever like this appeared in his mind. Of course, such an idea was just smothered by him as soon as it appeared.

When the sound of the horn sounded for the first time, he was next to the dormitory he had just started to build. He didn't care too much when he saw A Ze and the other orcs put down their work and ran in the direction of the sound. There were so many people there. Naturally, it is impossible to solve it, and now that the little wolf is gone, it is a big deal.

When the horn sounded for the second time, Ajing had already walked near the gate of the city. The newly planted Zhushi trees on both sides of the road had already reached the height of a palm after about a month. The little wolf cubs would get out of these wooden fences around Zhu Shi's saplings, so they were very careful to find them one by one. But the second horn sound lasted too long. Even if I knew that there was no chance of anything happening with A Ze in Chen Qi, I couldn't help but worry a little, wondering whether to go back and have a look first.

"Ow."

The familiar voice made A Jing stunned for a while, and when he turned around, he saw a white dumpling in the dark night rushing towards him. The impact of the slam was still a bit difficult for a child who was about to be eight years old, and one person and one beast fell directly on the road.

"Where did you go?" A Jing didn't care about the pain when his back hit the ground, pinching the little wolf cub's two pointed ears and pulling up the other's big head.

The little wolf cub looked at him quietly, and suddenly stuck out his tongue and licked A Jing's little face, which had been raised pink and tender, with baby fat, much better than last year's skinny and malnourished appearance.

A Jing also didn't dislike the drool that the other party had smeared on his face. He just pulled the other party's ear and taught the little wolf cub's stupid face, "Don't run away without saying hello in the future."

"Ouch." The little wolf cub stuck out his tongue to please, and licked his face on the other side of Ajing. After that, he arched his chin with his big head, hoping to prevent Ajing from running away suddenly. anger.

The fluffy hair rubbed against the skin and it was a little itchy, A Jing rubbed the other party's head hard, seeing the obedient appearance of the other party, he couldn't bear to blame it again, and sat up, "Did you hear those strange sounds just now? We Go back and see what happened."

The little wolf cub nodded, and one person and one beast rushed home quickly.

Except for the females who still insisted on guarding the city gate, all the orcs in Qize City were attracted by the sound of the horn. Now the inner three floors and the outer three floors are crowded with people. Fortunately, A Jinghe The little wolf cubs are relatively small, so they managed to squeeze in through the gap.

"To attract the attention of males in this way?"

"Well." Chen Qi nodded. Orcs have their own unique warning signals. Chen Qi's trumpet was not used for warning, but he planned to come up with some usable musical instruments. It is the easiest of them all, just cut the two ends of the horn to make a sound.

Of course, the horn alone can't make the males look sideways at the females, and although the sound of the horn can travel far, it is a bit too monotonous, and if people can notice it, it must be able to attract the attention of others. Chen Qi thought about it for a long time, and finally set the goal to dance.

For this primitive world with no entertainment at all, too many fancy dancing orcs naturally can't appreciate it, and Chen Qi has no foundation in dancing, but even if it is something that he makes casually, Chen Qi has the confidence to make more orcs more. At a glance, novel things are always particularly easy to attract the attention of others.

Chen Qi explained the initial idea to a few people in the room. Although he didn't quite understand it, it was clear that other people were still very interested. The horn that could make a strange sound surprised them.

"I still need to make a few more drums to make it out. The horn effect is still a little weak."

"What is a drum?"

Chen Qi got up, went to the side and took out two pieces of cowhide that had been treated in advance. This is the animal skin coat that Aze wore in the past. It has been shelved since he changed to cloth clothes, and the complete one has not been used yet. The cowhide didn't survive at all, there was no way, Chen Qi could only take out these two cowhide clothes and make do with it.

While everyone was there, Chen Qi planned to show them how to drum directly. He found a wooden bucket filled with water, soaked the cowhide in the water, and then took the people in the house to the outside of the yard. The crowd took the initiative. Make way for them.

In the yard was a piece of wood that Chen Qi had prepared a long time ago. The wood was about half a meter wide. Aze went to the forest to cut it back and used it as firewood, and it was too late to split it.

This piece of wood is a bit like a poplar tree. The bark can be peeled off as soon as it is peeled off. Chen Qi has already dealt with it. At this moment, he took out a small piece of charcoal and drew a circle along the inner circumference of the wood. He waved and let him carefully hollow out the piece of wood.

This is a meticulous and long job. Others are already busy building dormitories. Naturally, it is impossible to watch here all the time. After seeing that there is nothing to do, A Zhang asked A Xu to take everyone back to work first. He and Azer stayed.

Naturally, the drum body cannot be processed straight, it has an arc, almost a semi-circle, even if it is not difficult for the females to cut the wood, but after the whole treatment plus simply grinding the wood inside and out, it is still a good thing. It took almost the whole night.

A Jing and the little wolf cubs were so sleepy after watching it in the middle of the night that they were driven back by Chen Qi to wash and sleep.

After the drum body was almost finished, Chen Qi simply applied a layer of gelatin liquid, and when it was almost dry, he took the soaked cowhide, and tightly covered the cowhide on both sides of the drum, letting A Ze and A Zhang. Help tighten.

The cowhide has already been punched by Chen Qi, and now I hold a strong rope to tie the cowhide on both sides together, and then use the rope to firmly fix it at the drum mouth. There are no nails suitable for use here. , you can only make do with it first. After processing, put it on the wooden rack prepared in advance to dry.

Ah Zhang also knew that he couldn't be in a hurry, so he went back to rest after finishing the drum.

The next day is the day when hunting is needed. Because of the fishing nets, as long as there are five or six people, it is enough to hunt and feed the entire tribe for two days, and there are often leftovers that are pickled and dried to make salt. Dried fish, although it doesn't smell very good, is better than this, which can be stored directly into winter, so hunters will deliberately catch a little more each time.

After drying the cowhide for a day, it was almost dry. Chen Qi moved directly to the school playground while he was having dinner. When the sun was about to go down, the temperature also dropped, and the roof was covered with weeds and sprinkled with water to cool down. It still can't dispel the heat indoors, so dinner is usually eaten outdoors.

Chen Qi asked the others to sit on the spot. He took out two sticks that were used as drum sticks and slapped them crossly. The sound of the wood hitting each other was not loud. dull. Recalling the drumming I had seen before, I began to drop the stick on the drum surface.

The sound of "dong dong dong" began to sound. There was no rhythm at the beginning, and slowly it seemed to find a little feeling. The sound of "dong dong dong" sounded on the playground with a little rhythm, although the sound was not very loud, But it was enough for the beasts to be surprised, and even A-Chang, who helped make the drums together, was surprised.

Everyone's eyes were focused on Chen Qi's body, and also on the other party's hand holding a stick and knocking on the drum surface. Every time the drum sounded, everyone felt a shock in their hearts.

When Chen Qi finally stopped, he looked up and saw dozens of pairs of Qi Shushu looking at his eyes, he was a little embarrassed and asked A Zhang who was closest to him, "How is it? This is enough to attract the attention of the males. ?"

Ah Zhang hadn't spoken yet, but Carlo, who was beside him, had already answered, "If a woman knocks this thing in front of me like this, I will definitely be attracted to him."

Sitting next to him, Ake, who was holding Ayao, looked at him with a bad look. Carlo felt a coolness behind him, and quickly shrank his neck, daring not to look in Ake's direction, nor to speak any more.

Ale's eyes lit up, "Chen Qi, do you want to teach us to knock this kind of thing?"

Chen Qi nodded.

The other females were overjoyed. They all knew that there would be many males attending this gathering. If they could attract the attention of males, maybe they could find a mate this year. Even Ah Xu, who didn't have much expectations for this meeting, couldn't help but feel a little moved.

Ashu looked at the delighted females in Qize City, and at the envy-eyed females in his tribe, he couldn't help but ask, "Can we also learn?"

Chen Qi turned his attention to A Zhang and silently asked the other party's opinion. A Zhang nodded with a smile, "Of course, now all the females in Qize City can learn."

Ashu bowed to him gratefully, although most of the males this time are from their Luoshui tribe, aren't they also from the Yanshan tribe, maybe they will be able to get rid of their partnerless status this year.

Although the drum thing has been finalized, the dance thing has not yet been decided. During the construction of the dormitory in full swing, Chen Qi finally decided to dance as a simple movement, with original flavor, and the way of shouting to increase the momentum. , a bit similar to the war dance, this is the most suitable dance for these orcs he can think of, and it is also the easiest to show the wild, brave and strong side of the orcs. Of course, it is also the easiest to attract the attention of others.

The orcs don’t respect the delicate partner. The females here are responsible for hunting and raising the family. The stronger the female, the better the protection of her other half after forming a partner, so that her partner will not starve and suffer. freeze.

Strength is what the orcs value most, and this is what Chen Qi hopes to bring out this time to help these females attract their partners. After all, the males have no chance to see the heroic appearance of the females when they hunt.
