Accompanied by the chirping of birds in the distance, the sun gradually sank into the horizon. After blooming its last dazzling red light, the sky was gradually filled with stars. But the green slopes are not silent at night. Nocturnal animals will run around looking for food, and some bugs that make strange sounds also come out of their nests.
The moon gradually disappeared behind the thin clouds, and the not-so-bright moonlight shone intermittently on the green slopes. This was a night with low visibility, and the moonlight would have been brighter under normal circumstances. Normally by this time, Ayun would have gone back into the hole and tried to sleep, but it was different today because Tisuo was still there. She didn't expect that when Tisuo said he wouldn't leave, he really didn't leave.
At this time, Tisuo was sitting at the entrance of the cave, whittling a wooden stick. What was also strange to Ayun was that the night did not seem to have any impact on Tisuo, and his speed of whittling the stick did not slow down.
Speaking of wooden sticks, yes, Ayun finally compromised. First, because the rope was too big and she was really stubborn. Second, she thought that there were many nocturnal animals around Green Slope, so the sooner the fence was completed, the better. good.
Starting around 6 o'clock, Tisuo and Ayun made great progress and whittled nearly 30 wooden sticks. Ayun banged and hammered, and half of the cave entrance had been surrounded. When Ayun inserted the stick into the soil, Tisuo also understood what she wanted to do.
It is worth mentioning that until the sun went down, Tisuo not only helped cut wood but also taught Ayun how to speak. The effect...is quite remarkable? Ayun almost understood a few relatively simple words, such as "worm", "attack", "sleep" and "important"
But this is still very powerful, because although these words are short, they contain many usage scenarios... very, very many.
Starting from "bug", bug not only refers to insects, but also refers to annoying things, sudden traps, certain foods, bad moods, etc.
"Attack" has a wider range of use. In fact, basically anything that is conflicting, bad, or exciting can use the word "attack" in the local language.
"Sleep" can be used to describe comfort, coziness, love, etc. It is a relatively positive word. And "important"... Ayun didn't learn it, he only remembered the meaning of important.
Ayun doesn't know how long this language has been formed or how many times it has been iterated, but from what she has learned so far... maybe it is a language that has only been formed not long ago.
"Won't Tisuo go back to sleep?" Ayun spoke the language he had just learned with some pride and guilt, "It's already night."
"Don't go back." Tisuo raised the stick he had just whittled and knocked it, "Help Ayun do it."
He said, turning his head and smiling at Ayun. It was also at this time that Ayun discovered that Tisuo's eyes were somewhat glowing under the moonlight. It's like how a cat looks on a night camera...but not as bright and only visible at certain angles.
No way? Ayun was a little stunned, no way... Could it be that Tisuo's race has night vision? Reminiscent of Tisso's unusual behavior when he looked up at the sky and blinked his eyes at night before, and how he is now completely unaffected by the darkness...
"Tisuo... can you see?" Ayun hesitated for a while, not sure if he was right. "Eyes."
"?" Tisuo seemed a little confused, "What's wrong?"
"Eye!" Ayun covered his eyes, and then let go of his hand. "Eye, at night, work continues!"
"The work continues!" Tisuo waved his hand happily, "Make the cave safe."
Okay, let's talk about it, even though we have always talked about it... Ayun hesitated for a while, then asked Tisuo why he didn't go back, and the answer he got was the same as before, he wasn't going back.
After about a while, Tisuo and Ayun cut all the wooden sticks and inserted them outside the cave. However, because Ayun had limited collection this morning, only one-third of the fence was completed, and they would have to continue collecting tomorrow. sticks.
"Thank you!" Ayun patted Tisuo's arm. Although he couldn't see clearly, the half-completed fence in front of him and the wooden door built by himself made Ayun very happy. Plus I ate fish this afternoon! !
What a satisfying day. Ayun opened the door, climbed in half-body, took out the fruit shell he used to hold water, and handed it to Tisuo: "Drink, water."
The moonlight reflected on the water at this time, casting soft light on the simple water bowl. Tisuo's eyes also shone slightly in this faint light. This scene looked a bit weird to Ayun, but she couldn't tell what was weird about it.
He lowered his head and drank water from A-Yun's hand. He didn't drink much, leaving more than half of it for A-Yun. Tisso also looked very happy. After drinking the water, he walked to the side and knocked the fence sticks one by one with his hands, as if to confirm whether they were firm or simply playing.
"Ayun." Tisuo suddenly looked towards her, "Go to sleep."
"Oh..." It was indeed time to go to bed. Ayun looked up at the moon. It should be almost 9 o'clock now. It is still very early for modern people, but now that a lot of physical work is required every day, it is already a bit late to go to bed. How to do it? Tiso is still here, and doesn't seem to have any intention of leaving.
Ayun felt a little uncomfortable: "Tisuo, aren't you going back?" Tisuo shook his head and pointed to a place next to the cave: "I'm sleeping here, Ayun goes in."
But why? Why do you stay here tonight? She knew that Tisuo would not do anything to threaten her, but simply wanted to know the reason why Tisuo wanted to stay here overnight. He had never done this before: "Why?"
"Ayun, I will die." Tisuo said categorically, and his tone was a little lively, but it left Ayun a little speechless: "Why, I, will die?"
Tisuo stopped answering, as if his patience had run out. He strode over, grabbed Ayun, lifted her up horizontally, like a monk carrying a bell hammer, and stuffed her into the entrance of the cave. "Why are you doing this to me!!" Ayun screamed as she was stuffed into the hole by the rope. She felt like a potato.
"What do you mean I'm going to die!" After being stuffed in, Ayun struggled to turn around in the cave, trying to climb out and question Tisuo. But the savage actually...he actually closed the wooden door! It would be fine if he just covered the entrance of the cave, but he seemed to have blocked the wooden door with his back, and Ayun couldn't push it open no matter how hard he pushed.
"..." Something wasn't right, and Ayun started to panic just now. What Tisuo just said - Ayun will die. what does that mean? Their language is used in so many places. According to my previous understanding, Tisuo's sentence means "Ayun will die, so he can't leave."
But what if the application environment is completely opposite? Ayun already had a very bad script in mind, starting with that fish. Yes, that fish is actually ominous enough.
In the dark environment, Ayun began to think wildly... Yesterday, Tisuo's compatriots came to him. Tisuo seemed to be protecting her, but in fact, Tisuo still compromised in the end. After all, compared to a foreigner, of course Being of the same race is more important, right? The people of the same tribe hope that she can disappear from this area, so what is the fastest way to disappear?
Of course it’s a festival to God!
But Tiso couldn't kill him immediately, because they had spent a pleasant time... maybe pleasant, at least in her opinion. So Tisuo felt guilty, but he couldn't betray his fellow tribesmen, so he brought the best food he could find - dried fish. And it's a whole fish, come over and give it to her, which is a decapitation meal.
In the meantime, help her with some work to make her happy. Everything goes according to her, let her spend the last happy time, and then after night falls...
Why does nightfall have to happen? Ayun was stuck with the script in his mind, but he couldn't get around what Tisuo's phrase "Ayun, will die" meant, so the language barrier was really troublesome! ! Ayun began to rush to the entrance of the cave and smash his own small wooden door.
"Ayun?!" Tisuo's surprised voice came from outside the wooden door, "What's wrong?"
"Let me out, don't kill me!" Ayun started gibbering, "I don't want to die. I worked hard to survive in the wild for a month, not to be killed by savages to sacrifice to heaven!"
After shouting randomly, Ayun felt a little embarrassed again. What if she was wrong? But now...what's going on?
"Ayun, stay inside." Tisuo's voice came through the wooden door. "Don't be afraid. If you come out, you will die."
I guessed wrong, so embarrassing. Ayun lay face down at the entrance of the cave with his head in his arms, feeling that his cheeks were extremely congested. Fortunately, Tisso couldn't understand her language. It would have been even more embarrassing if he could...
"Ayun, sleep."
"Outside, leave it to me."
Is something going to happen? Will there be any dangerous beasts coming to Green Slope tonight? There is indeed such a thing in some animal documentaries. During a certain period of time in a certain season, they will migrate in groups. Ayun retreated a little further into the cave, but if something dangerous really happened outside, what would Tisuo do? Although he is strong...but he can't handle the beast alone.
Ayun felt that no matter how hard he worked, there were still many things to learn and master... too many, and this whole world was brand new. What else can I do now? The door is asked to be correct, and it is said that if you go out, you will die...
All I can do is sleep on it!
She climbed onto the grass mat in the cave, twisted a few times to find a comfortable position and posture, and closed her eyes.
…
…………
She dreamed again, this time it was rare that she didn't dream about her previous life. Instead, she and Tisuo were fishing by a clear river. But after a closer look, it seemed that they were not fishing, but just playing in the water. There are also many large watermelons and cans of Coke in the cold river water.
"Ayun, do you want to eat pickled fish in golden soup tonight!" Tisuo spoke fluent Chinese, holding up the fish he just caught and waving it at Ayun, "I'd rather help you make Wushan grilled fish!"
"I want to eat them all!" Ayun shouted, waking up from his sleep. And because he woke up so violently, he actually sat up and hit his head heavily on the roof of the cave.
Ayun fell back on the straw mat and hugged his head: "It hurts so much..." After the pain subsided, Ayun crawled towards the entrance of the cave. The wooden door opened smoothly, and outside...
everything is normal.
The early morning sun shines on the grass, and a warm wind blows from the slope. Just like every peaceful morning, Ayun climbed out of the cave and called for Tisuo several times, but received no response. She went around and around the cave looking for Tisuo. There were no bushes here, and there was nothing to hide in. place, but just can't find Tiso.
Did you go back in the middle of the night? Ayun felt confused. There were no traces of fighting or blood around him, and the fence was intact at the entrance of the cave.
But didn't Tisuo say... that she would die if she came out? It’s so strange, what happened? Ayun frowned and kept touching her chin. If there really was a fierce fight outside the cave last night, she would definitely wake up immediately based on the quality of her sleep.
Where did Tiso go? Did you really go back? Tisuo was definitely not injured. Ayun had already searched around the cave. There was no blood or any body parts.
Ayun couldn't make up her mind for a moment. Should she worry about Tisuo's safety, or start the day's work as usual? Today, in addition to collecting wooden sticks to continue making fences, she also had to look for new fire starters... After struggling for about half an hour, Ayun picked out the sharpest thorn stick from the unfinished fence, and then Got some food from the cave.
After taking all the two bone knives with her, she walked quickly towards the rain forest. Anyway, I just collect things like wooden sticks and fine velvet that are everywhere, and it’s the same when I go to the rainforest to collect them! Stop by and see if you can find Tiso.
However, Ayun was a little timid after running halfway... She couldn't even explore the bush area on the green slope smoothly. A big insect could scare her stiff. Isn't it too difficult near the rainforest? Already? Can people who haven't come out of the Novice Village enter the high-difficulty dungeon?
What if you encounter something like a Tyrannosaurus rex just after entering? Speaking of which, is there a Tyrannosaurus rex in this era? Thinking about it, Ayun began to walk quickly towards the rain forest again. She felt that she had become more and more conflicted in the past few days because of Tisuo.
Just like now, I am afraid of death and want to rush into the rainforest...
