I can only pray that I am not completely frozen to death.
The two looked at each other in bewilderment, and tacitly chose not to mention the matter for the time being.
After all, we can't dig it up now. If we bury it under the snow, it might still survive until the warm season. If we dig it out, it will most likely freeze to death.
It was another day of waiting, but fortunately everyone returned safely before dark.
After Qing Jiu and his men joined up with Guo Qi's large group, they ate some dry food and dried meat and continued searching in the mountains. However, those animal trainers did not stay in one place all the time. Occasionally, they would drive a few wolves or bears over to disturb them.
There were several conflicts, big and small, but nothing came of it.
Qing Jiu sat on a low stool in the kitchen, drinking bone soup mouthful by mouthful. It was less than two days, but Ji Lang felt that he looked much more haggard.
There was dry skin at the corners of my mouth. I had clearly washed my face, but it still looked gray and my eyes were bloodshot.
"I'm fine." Qing Jiu freed one hand and patted Ji Lang's furry head soothingly, then touched the man's face with some affection.
Even though he was at home, he didn't stay indoors properly and his face was slightly red from the cold.
Ji Lang grabbed his strong wrist and rubbed it like a small animal, "You scared me to death. I couldn't sleep the whole night yesterday. Don't do this again in the future." He really couldn't stand it anymore.
Qing Jiu nodded. When this man came back just now, the look in his eyes was filled with fear and worry, which made his heart twitch and the pain was out of control.
"By the way, you can drink some of this later." Ji Lang took out the medicine brewed by Grandma Xue, and continued to talk about Aqing's story and Grandma Xue's speculation.
Qing Jiu understood. They had discovered last night that the animal trainers controlled the herds of animals but were also afraid of them.
"If it's really the situation that Grandma Xue said, then over time, we won't even have to fight those beasts, their bodies will collapse on their own." Ji Lang said, and told Qing Jiu about several cases in the previous world.
"No wonder, those beasts look so ferocious and violent, but when they actually fight, their movements are slower than the beasts we encountered before." Qing Jiu said as he recalled.
"I don't know how they discovered this harmful thing." Ji Lang muttered to himself. This time's animal trainer, as well as the cannibals before, both had a great impact on Ji Lang's cognition.
He thought that in primitive society people were still worrying about food and shelter, but it turned out that everyone was engaging in this kind of mental and physical control play.
A strong wind blew outside again, stronger than last night, blowing the pieces of meat hanging in the doorway, which were frozen harder than bricks, against each other, making "bang, bang, bang" sounds.
But now Ji Lang didn't feel the same fear as last night, and he even thought the sound was pleasant.
He was like a lost puppy that was found, becoming unusually clingy.
He followed Qingjiu when he took a bath, he followed Qingjiu when he ate, and even when Qingjiu sat on the doorstep after dinner to clean the dirty long sword, he sat beside him.
Sa Shi smiled and joked a few times, saying that he was even more clingy than his two little brats.
The person who usually gets angry easily now admits openly that he is more clingy than a kid.
Qing Jiu didn't say anything, but he felt a sense of satisfaction for some reason.
