The soldiers were indeed right. The day came and went quickly. In just a moment, the dark clouds in the sky, as thick as ink, which made people feel depressed and panicked, disappeared along with the breeze in Caoji, and the warm sunshine The light shines again, bringing daily light and warmth to the entire camp
I poked my head out from house to house and looked at the sky. Everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief and walked out of the house one after another. While cursing Farah in his heart for doing all the bad things, he packed up the food and went to work. It was only a little past noon now, and he could still do it until nightfall. Doing a lot of work. So, the stall owners took out big and small bags again, placed the goods inside, and started shouting. The shops also opened their windows and swept their doors to welcome customers. The only thing they said was that there had been no changes, and they had been open from the beginning to the end. Just those bars.
There is no way, it's not that the bar owner is cowardly and thinks that the sky is changing like shit, but there are actually a bunch of adventurer gentlemen staying inside. If he wants to close the door, he has to ask the gentlemen who are loudly discussing this weather change if they are willing to do so. OK.
Everything seems to be back to normal again. Fortunately, the weather change occurred at noon. At this time, most of the civilians in the camp were working outside, grazing cattle, and farming. Less than one-half of the population remained in the camp. Otherwise, the panic caused by the weather change would have more serious.
A certain corner of the southern area of the camp, the residential area. There are large and small civilian wooden houses or tents standing in the forest. Such remote corners are found throughout the camp. At first glance, there is nothing surprising.
But, today. This corner welcomed a special guest, a guest who fell from the sky.
Looking from the ground, a small black dot flew over from the north. Eventually, the black dot was pulled by gravity and gradually enlarged. Until he bumped into a high pile of ash piles. The so-called ash piles are the yellow withered grass left over from livestock eating by farmers. They piled them together and burned them, and then spread the burned ashes. Used as fertilizer in vegetable fields. As you can imagine, there must be soft black ash inside.
"puff"
One end was smashed inside, making a dull sound. The black spots were completely planted into the ash, leaving only half of the sole exposed, and it was stained black by the raised black ash, and it looked like it was integrated with the entire ash pile.
After all this was over, the black dust that had been raised all over the sky gradually fell down and returned to the soil. The black spots that plunged into it seemed to have stopped moving, as if nothing had happened, and everything returned to calm.
"Dirk? Dirk? Stop playing and go get some fertilizer quickly."
A moment later, things were near the ashes. From a patched tent that can be seen everywhere in the civilian area of the camp, the thick voice of a thirty-four-year-old woman came.
"error."
Thinking of the child with a hint of reluctance in a childish voice, a thin child with yellow hair, about seven or eight years old, came over. It could be seen from the grass clippings and dust on his body that he had just returned from playing.
In a place like the Dark Continent, for ordinary civilians, the so-called worry-free childhood is only between the age of four and five, and beyond this age. It's time to start helping out with the family.
Even Vilas is like this, but her father is a mercenary after all, and her grandfather is also the elder of Vitas Village. There is also a close friend who aspires to become a warrior. The self-proclaimed Elura, who is always serious, will rush to do heavy work, so Willas's childhood is much easier than that of ordinary children.
By the way, according to the gossip accidentally revealed by Ai Yaola, the current Roger singer. Lord Vilas, who is loved by the entire Rogue people because of his kind, gentle and friendly personality, occasionally bursts out with bear-like power when he gets angry, eh!
Not to mention Sarah, who grew up in a privileged family with no worries about food and clothing. Her mother, Lisa, never had the heart to let her do heavy work. Of course, this had both advantages and disadvantages. This kind of doting led to Lisa's poor cooking skills. The camp is said to be outstanding, but Sarah's "craftsmanship" can only be said to be average, but I heard that Lal. In addition to the basic skills of barbecue and stew made in the wild, it seems that there are also several sources of information from Big Mouth Doug, so The veracity is questionable.
The little boy named Dirk was not so lucky. He was so thin that it was obvious that he was malnourished due to poverty. He was carrying two heavy wooden barrels, each of which seemed to be similar to his own. They seemed to be almost heavy, but Dirk was obviously used to this kind of work. He was carrying two old and old wooden barrels that had been nailed over and over, and he was walking as fast as he could without feeling weak because of his thin body.
Lift the two large wooden barrels and put them down next to the ash pile. Dirk skillfully found a hand that was better than his. The broken shovel, whose head was half as high as the head, was thrust hard into the pile of ash at an angle of about sixty degrees, and then he jumped with the handle of the shovel, his whole body hanging on it, and the already loose ash. After being lifted by him like this, he naturally shoveled it up.
Using this effortless method. Dirk quickly filled the bucket, however, when he plunged the shovel in again. However, he noticed that the extremely sharp shovel head seemed to have hit some obstacle and could not penetrate it all at once.
"Damn it, some bastard threw the stone in there."
After finishing talking to himself, Dirk tilted his head and thought. No, if it were a stone, it would have made a "clang" sound. Now it was obvious that it had touched some softer obstacle.
Dirk was surprised for a while, but he didn't care about dirty things. In fact, civilian children of this age didn't know what dirty things were at all. He knelt on the ash pile, and quickly spread the ashes on it with his two small hands. After a while, I found the "obstacle".
"Oh my God!!"
Children who grow up in such an environment are generally "bold" and won't be startled even if they see rotten corpses. Desu is the leader among Dongshan. Even so, he was also severely frightened. , looking at the thing that he had laid out. He was so shocked that he couldn't make a sound for a while, and the stories that he had overheard told by decent adults while hiding in the corner a few days ago came to mind, and he learned a few things from the stories. The words suddenly popped out.
Murder! throw? ! Murder!
Wait, is this a human?
After the initial surprise, Dirk became more courageous, and then he took a closer look and discovered what the other person looked like. From beginning to end, it has nothing to do with the word "person".
Carefully, he stabbed the opponent with the shovel. Well, there is no movement, it seems to be a dead thing.
Dirk relaxed a little and stood on tiptoes. He lightly kicked the opponent's part that seemed to be the sole of his foot, and immediately hid in the woodpile like a loach. After a while, Dirk's head popped out of the woodpile.
Very good, doesn't look like a scam.
I don't know whether to say that Police Officer Dirk is strong, or that he was poisoned by the stories he secretly heard. In short, he has tentatively confirmed that this thing should be harmless. The question is, how to deal with such a big guy?
"Mommy mommy!!"
The first thing Dirk thought of was his mother. There was no way he could help it. He was still a child. Even if he started doing housework early, he was still only a seven or eight-year-old child. At this time, the first thing he thought of was naturally his parents.
"You naughty kid, what are you doing?"
Dirk's mother has a tattered headscarf on her head. A sturdy peasant woman holding a hoe in her hand. He opened the tent and walked out, then yelled at Dirk.
In the nearby residential areas, Dirk is the most naughty. In the words of children, he is the king of children in this area.
"Mom, look at this thing
Dirk pointed at the black thing he dragged out of the ashes with an innocent look on his face.
"You kid, hey, this is,"
Dirk's mother was also shocked when she saw it. What on earth is this? I have never seen it before. However, she deserved to live several decades longer than Dirk. Although it is far from being described as knowledgeable. But soon, she saw something.
Since the monster attack on the village eight years ago that is still fresh in people's minds, there have been no natural disasters in the camp. What's more, that wise and great man? Elder Wu Fan has learned about the simpler papermaking technology. Life in the camp has indeed become much better over the years, and there is no news of anyone dying of starvation and freezing in winter.
This is something that Dirk’s mother, who lives in this class and whose husband works at the paper mill cutting trees in the misty forest, has the most profound experience of.
"Thank you to the great Lord Akara and Elder Wu Fan. Your great kindness will be unforgettable for us forever.
Whenever she thought about this, she would imitate the nuns and paladins in the church, put her clenched fists to her lips, kneel on the ground, and mutter to herself, for these civilians, who brought them Whoever brings food and clothing is God.
When Dirk's mother knelt on the ground and murmured a prayer like this, the semicircular ears of the black thing lying next to her twitched slightly as if feeling something.
Uh, is it an illusion?
After doing all this, Dirk's mother stood up and continued into memory mode.
As life improved, more and more out-of-town businessmen appeared in the camp, bringing with them all kinds of novelties that dazzled the campers. Dirk's mother was once in a merchant's stall. I have seen something very similar in appearance to the black thing lying on the ground now. At that time, it seemed to be called, "Uh, stuffed bear or something?"
Although I can't understand why this thing, which has a shape similar to that of a human, can even stand upright on two legs, and is far different from a bear in appearance, is called a bear. Is it a mutant bear? However, Dirk's mother's empty brain still happily accepted the impact of this novelty. What impressed her most was that the stuffed bear that seemed to be only the size of two fists actually bought an old gold coin.
Oh my god, this much money is enough to buy a new set of clothes for my whole family. Only those adventurers can buy this thing without a care.
I originally thought that if it wasn't very expensive, I would buy it as a gift for Dirk. After all, she had never given any gifts to her children since they were born, and that thing called a stuffed bear, huh. It's strange, but it's quite lovable. A child will be delighted to receive such a beautiful gift.
Dirk's mother looked at it again and again. Yes, this gray thing is indeed the stuffed bear. It's just this size. "Oh my god, it's only the size of a fist and costs a buck. This one is a little bigger than me." Wouldn't that be,
Dirk's mother's head was a little hard to turn.
At this moment, something even more horrifying happened to her. The stuffed bear that was supposed to be a toy suddenly moved strangely. He sat up without saying a word.
"MONSTER AGAIN!!!"
Dirk's mother screamed loudly, threw the hoe in her hand, and ran away with Dirk. She had to report quickly that a monster had invaded. Yes, it must be a monster. She couldn't be deceived by the cute appearance.
At this moment, Dirk's mother suddenly understood. I asked how could there be a bear in this world that looked like a human and could stand upright on its feet. If you use monsters to explain it, it makes sense. What I saw at the merchant's stall that day was actually a stuffed bear made to imitate the shape of a monster! !
But now, an entity has arrived! !
This incident soon caused a commotion, and the civilians who had just calmed down from the sudden change couldn't help but become panicky again. Could it be that the murderer of the sudden change was not Farah, but the monster ragdoll bear? ! !
Soon, the soldiers gathered, very soon. After hearing the news of Akara's arrival, she just smiled and said something.
That's not a monster, please treat it kindly.
At the camp, Akara had said many different things to her. Everyone felt at ease and replied that the cute thing with slightly shaggy hair didn't look like it could hurt anyone.
So the camera returned to Dirk and his mother again, and back to the ashes. When the mother and son saw that the piece of equipment was still sitting there motionless, they couldn't help but feel a little reassured.
"Mom. Can I go talk to him?"
Dirk, a newborn calf, is not afraid of tigers, so he took advantage of his mother not paying attention and got close to him.
"You kid"
Dirk's mother screamed, but perhaps the stuffed bear looked a little too harmless. She did not pull her son back immediately, but observed from the side and held the hoe in her hand. All it takes is for the bear to be slightly malicious. Even if she risked her life, she would protect her child.
"Mr. Bear, Mr. Bear, can you understand?"
After I learned from my mother that this was a stuffed bear. Dirk took it upon himself to call him.
Upon reaction, the bear raised his head blankly and glanced at him. Although his body was dirty and covered with black ash, as if it had been rolled out of a stove, it had lovely black eyes. It still made Dirk's eyes sparkle.
"Mr. Xiong, you are dirty. Take a shower first."
After muttering a few words to himself, Dirk felt good about himself and thought that everyone was already familiar with each other, so he stretched out his hand and pulled it. Unexpectedly, the stuffed bear also stood up, and Dirk felt happy.
However, the stuffed bear who stood up still looked lost, with his back hunched over, his head drooped, and listless.
Soon, Dec pulled the stuffed bear to the nearby river, rolled up his sleeves, and helped him wash it. This was a stuffed bear that was several times bigger than him. It was not easy to clean it. Easy things.
"Little ones, today I will introduce you to a new partner!!"
Standing on a pile of logs with high spirits, the child Wang Deke summoned his men and announced loudly.
"Everyone applauds."
As he spoke, he pulled out the stuffed bear from behind the fence.
"Wow, so cute"
At first glance, more than a dozen little kids cheered and rushed forward.
"Hey, hey. Listen to what I have to say.
Seeing that his subordinates ignored his leader, Dirk couldn't help but scream angrily, but no one cared about him now.
"Mr. Bear, Mr. Bear, why are you so listless?"
The children gathered around the stuffed bear and asked with concern.
"of"
A feeble and weak voice came out.
"Boys, did you see that? Our mission today is to make Mr. Xiong happy."
Dirk finally found an opportunity to give the order and shouted loudly.
"oh!!"
The children immediately cheered and looked at the stuffed bear with innocent eyes. It seemed that they really liked it.
"Hey, hey, you guys?" Don't cause trouble for everyone. "
A shirtless man walked over from a distance and shouted to these urchins. Behind him were the footsteps of giant beasts that shook the entire ground.
A giant beast covered in ferocious iron armor, its huge and terrifying head suddenly rose up from the wooden roof. It was a huge body that was at least five meters high! !
The most eye-catching thing is the huge basket on its back, which is big enough for several people. The adults sat comfortably inside and chatted.
Siege beast, the strongman's siege beast! ! The adventurer who came back from outside for the first time saw this giant beast. I'm afraid they would all scream out in horror.
Sword drawn and ready.
At this time, those who know the situation. He would immediately stop them and explain to them with a smile. "This is Xiao Xiaojia, the pet Xiaojia that the elder brought back from outside."
That's right, this huge siege beast is Xiao Jia. Xiaojia, a poor boy, has been forced to work as a laborer for a long time since he was led away by Kasha.
Although at the beginning, its huge size and ferocious armored posture did make the entire camp panic and uneasy, fearing that this ferocious beast would suddenly become more ferocious. However, we cannot help but admire the strong adaptability of human beings. , after a period of panic, people discovered that these giant beasts were bigger and more ferocious. Very docile indeed.
Gradually, at first he was summoned by Kasha. Then the active little armor used its huge size and powerful strength to help countless people in the camp. It has gradually become the mascot of Luoke Camp, and children like to climb on its back and play together. Xiao Jia seems to be happy with this leisurely life.
Probably, it is because of Xiao Jia's experience that people will accept the fact of the stuffed bear in front of them so quickly.
"Hey Xiaojia, put your stuff down. That's all. Thank you."
The strong man waved his hand towards Xiao Jia, signaling him to put down the full bundle of logs on his back.
"Quah!!"
After completing the task, Xiaojia raised his paw and shouted vigorously, then walked towards the open space.
According to daily management, these children will cheer and rush up to it, climb on it and play together. Little A is childlike and likes to do this kind of work.
But,,
"Xiao A, I'm sorry. Today we have to accompany Mr. Xiong to make him happy."
The children stood there and said this.
Xiao Jia's excited movements suddenly stagnated, as if he had been petrified, motionless.
Then, his big eyes turned to the stuffed bear, full and burning inside.
Envy, jealousy and hate! ! !
