Chapter 162 External Conflict 2
He asked this not because he wanted an answer. Seeing Ji Lang yawning and sitting up, he climbed up the kang from the ladder beside him with his butt sticking out, and rubbed against Ji Lang's side, "Father, the dog is hungry."
Before Ji Lang could speak, Qing Jiu grabbed Xiao Man by the collar and put him on the ground, "The big dogs are outside the door, you take them out to feed."
After saying that, without paying any attention to Xiaoman who was full of questions, he took off his gloves and helped Ji Lang take out the clothes that were hidden under the quilt.
Xiaoman turned her head with great effort to look at Ji Lang who was lying on the kang, then looked at her own position and stamped her feet to make sure that it was not an illusion that she had just gotten on the kang.
After he realized what was happening, he was a little angry. He frowned, held one puppy in each arm, and went out angrily.
It's not that he doesn't want to fight for his "human rights", but every time his father says no, he feels that his father is biased towards Qing! He can't win the fight!
Outside the door, Sanmao wagged his tail around Li. He knew that Li would help with cooking and sometimes feed them delicious food, so he tried to get some delicious food from her.
The bitch was squatting against the snow pile near the gate, looking somewhat anxious.
When Xiaoman came out of the door carrying the two puppies, it immediately stood up and jumped back and forth anxiously. Sanmao didn't even bother to ask for food, but ran over and circled around it to comfort it.
"Put them down and let them go by themselves." Li came over and helped Xiaoman put the two puppies on the ground. After all, they were wild dogs, and if they jumped on you excitedly, it would be difficult to stop them.
They were also smart. As soon as they landed, they sniffed around with their little noses and stumbled towards the big dog.
Ye came out with a pot of hot broth with some flour in it. After all, they had limited meat, the conditions were harsh in the winter, and they had to guard against other tribes coming to grab the meat, so they couldn't give too much meat to the dog.
However, the dogs will not take the prey they bring back for themselves, but will process it and feed it to them.
The bitch was reluctant to eat at first, but after being guided by Sanmao and licking it a few times, she immediately started eating without raising her head. She was also very hungry.
Within a few days, the female dog also had her own name, Sanmeng.
Ji Lang didn't understand, "Why is it called San Meng?" This guy is not as big as Liefeng and Sanmao, but when he stands up, he is half a person's height. It doesn't have anything to do with cuteness...
"Because she's cute. Didn't father say that cute things are cute? And she's Sanmao's companion, so it's just right to call her Sanmeng." Xiaoman touched the thick fur on Sanmeng's back. It was a little cold and prickly, and the feel was not very good, but he still liked to touch it. Sanmeng also lay obediently at his feet. He now thought Sanmeng was the cutest.
With his physique that attracts small animals, he soon became friends with San Meng and the two puppies. In addition, San Meng seemed to know that they would not hurt him or the puppies, so he did not resist these people approaching at all.
It was Ji Lang who was a little worried about the aesthetics of his baby.
The doghouse, which was originally quite spacious, is now a bit crowded. Ji Lang originally thought of making a doghouse when the weather is better, but after taking off his gloves, his hands were so frozen that he couldn't do any carpentry. It was also inconvenient to do anything with gloves on, so he had to give up the idea and let them squeeze in for now.
Aqiao's injuries healed quickly. These people's recovery ability is really strong. Unfortunately, Qingjiu and his friends went out to search several times, but still found no trace of Xiaohei and his friends, or even any trace of the "neighboring" tribe.
After all, it is the cold season now, and there is a heavy snow from time to time, covering all traces tightly. It is not abnormal to have no traces.
If this continues, everyone will always have to be vigilant.
To be on the safe side, Dayan and his men set traps on several roads leading up the mountain. However, as the days passed, even Xiaobei, who had recovered from his injuries and beatings, recovered again and was even full of energy every day, and nothing happened.
But the more this happens, the less likely we are to relax.
Sunny days are rare in the cold season. Whenever there are such days, everyone sits in the yard to bask in the sun, boils some hot water to process the prey that has been hunted but not yet processed, and gathers together to chat and laugh.
Ji Lang was doing math problems in the room with a few children. The door curtain was lifted and Xishi walked in. "Qingjiu is not in the room?" he asked Ji Lang.
"No, he went to the next yard. He must have gone to discuss patrol matters with Dayan." This winter, because of Xiao Hei and other tribes that appeared nearby, the frequency of their patrols increased a lot. "What's the matter?"
Xi Shi thought about it and decided that it would be okay to tell Ji Lang first, "A very large falcon has appeared nearby for three consecutive days, and each time it stays on the opposite hill for a long time." Although falcons are birds of prey and will occasionally target human cubs in the cold season, there are so many people in their tribe, and every time there are cubs playing outside, there are always many people together. This is definitely not a good time for a falcon to hunt, but it still keeps staring, and Xi Shi always feels it is very suspicious, and it doesn't seem like an ordinary hunt.
