Jian Luo felt relieved on the way back.
He sat in the carriage, saying to Long Aotian to stop making trouble, and then said to the young man driving the carriage, "That Sima seems to have quite a lot of power."
The young man replied gently, "Our planet is divided into north and south, with a total of four tribes. Da Sima is the strongest leader of the four tribes. He leads a tribe and is responsible for leading us to become stronger and better. He holds absolute power."
Jian Luo also guessed that this was probably the setting.
"He seems quite fair." Jian Luo said sincerely, "He seems to be a wise leader."
The young man said, "Most of the time, the Grand Marshal is very fair."
This sentence is quite ambiguous.
Jian Luo wanted to ask if he was ever unfair, but he swallowed the words and decided it would be better to keep quiet.
It started snowing again.
The boy said, "I thought we'd have a good year, but now that the vegetation has been cut down, life is going to be hard again."
Jian Luo raised his head and looked towards the sky. Nine out of ten things in this world are not as they seem. Everyone is struggling to survive, and no one is an exception.
"A-choo!"
He shivered from the cold.
Long Aotian, who was trying to stick his head out, was frightened by the sudden sneeze and went back obediently.
A cloak fell from the sky onto Jian Luo's head, leaving Lu Shifeng with only a thin coat on his body. He sat next to Jian Luo, his waist and back straight, as if he would not be affected by the cold wave at all.
Jian Luo said, "Aren't you cold?"
Lu Shifeng opened his thin lips slightly, his body still as a mountain in the wind and snow: "Dragons are not afraid of the cold."
So awesome.
Jian Luo silently glanced at the three little ones in his arms, and doubted deeply whether these three could still be dragons.
Lu Shifeng seemed to see through his doubts and said, "They are still small. Their scales are not their armor, but their weakness."
Jian Luo was stunned.
This was a very ordinary sentence, but he understood its meaning in an instant. The flying snow was drifting in the air, and the icy ground was piercing his legs, causing pain.
Jian Luo touched Long Aotian's head and whispered, "Parents will become their armor."
He will fight to protect his children.
No one can hurt them, no one.
…
After returning from outside, the people in the tribe held another collective meeting.
Regarding the issue of vegetation being cut down, everyone expressed their opinions, and Jian Luo also expressed his own views.
"I think we should use artificial breeding," Jian Luo said. "They'll send the grass back, right? The honey minnows won't leave yet. We can feed them at a fixed point to keep them there for now. After the airport snow has passed, we can replant."
The chief thought the idea was feasible.
Others have different issues:
"We can also feed Wenya and her tribe. They also get sunshine."
"It won't be that simple."
"right…"
Jian Luo didn't say anything else. After all, he was not a savior. All he could do was to put forward his own opinions. As for the feasibility and difficulty of the solution, it was beyond his ability to figure out.
Just when everyone was in danger, Lu Shifeng said, "Is there no market?"
Everyone was stunned
Just when everyone was in a dilemma, Lu Shifeng said, "Can't you exchange things at your market?"
It is winter now, but it does not mean that there is no trading in the market. Among the four tribes, there are poor and rich ones, and those who have a hard time definitely have more than enough.
The leader said, "We are short of resources. I'm afraid we don't have anything to sell on the market..."
Jian Luo thought of it: "Yes, sweaters and so on, I think many girls are good at knitting, right?"
Everyone is in the mood to send their lover off, huh.
Jian Luo's suggestion could be said to be a wake-up call, because sweaters are indeed rare things, and the nobles of some high-level tribes should like them.
The leader nodded approvingly: "It's feasible."
After he finished speaking, he looked at Lu Shifeng and Jian Luo with gratitude: "You two are truly great benefactors to our Kars tribe. If there is anything we can do for you, please let us know. We will do our best."
Lu Shifeng nodded lightly and prepared to go back with Jian Luo.
After returning to the room, Jian Luo took off his cloak. The three cubs seemed to have been unable to hold it in any longer, and they started jumping around after being put down.
Long Batian was smart enough to come over to Jian Luo and ask him to take off his clothes. Jian Luo ripped open his buttons and said, "It seems you really don't like wearing clothes."
Lu Shifeng looked at Jian Luo from the side: "You don't have many clothes either."
"Ah... this..." Jian Luo looked down at himself. He didn't bring any clothes when he came here, so he was dressed rather casually. He raised his head to look at Lu Shifeng: "Don't you think it looks bad?"
The strange stubbornness has increased again.
Lu Shifeng picked up Long Aotian and changed his bandages, saying, "I haven't bought anything for you."
Jian Luo was stunned, and it took him a long time to react. Could it be that because the market was mentioned today, Lu Shifeng suddenly realized that he had never bought anything for him, so... he wanted to compensate him?
this……
This is cute too.
Jian Luo sat there leisurely, and deliberately said, "Hey...yes, you see, their partners are all very nice. They buy them brand-name clothes and have a lot of delicious food and fun things to do."
Lu Shifeng paused and said, "Whatever you want, I'll bring it back to you tomorrow."
Jian Luo looked at him quietly. Lu Shifeng waited for a moment but there was no response. He raised his head and their eyes met. He met Jian Luo's smiling gaze. He sat beside the bed, the warm yellow light from the roof gently falling on his shoulders. Outside the house, snow was gently drifting all over the sky. He said softly, "I lied to you."
Lu Shifeng's red eyes deepened slightly.
"I don't like those." Jian Luo said, "I can buy those things myself. I just like you to come back safely every day."
In his arms were his sleeping sister and Long Batian, who was dozing off after playing tired. He patted Long Zai's head and said softly, "I'm already very happy now."
He never asked for much, he just wanted a place to settle down and live an ordinary life. He used to think that it was difficult to have enough food and drink, so he wanted to be a superior person, to get rich quickly, but now he has gradually tempered his temperament and feels that being ordinary is the most valuable.
Although such a precious peaceful life will never last long for him.
next day
"Luoluo!"
There were shouts from outside the yard.
Jian Luo was trying to learn math with Long Aotian and the others. Hearing the noise, he came out and saw the woman from next door standing at the door. He asked, "What's wrong?"
The woman said, "The Grand Marshal is here. I heard he's here to see you."
Jian Luo frowned. He recalled the man he met in the valley that day. He was tall and strong, and looked like someone who was not easy to mess with. Why would he look for him?
Thinking of this, Jian Luo said, "What do you want to see me for?"
The woman shook her head. "I don't know, but he said he came to discuss cooperation with you. I heard it might be related to Wu Shi."
? ?
Jian Luo was shocked. He was indeed interested in the Wu Stone, but for fear of causing trouble, he never dared to show off. Even when he wanted to study it, he asked Lu Shifeng to bring it back to him secretly. How could Da Sima know about it?
Jian Luo said: "What cooperation?"
"I don't know either." The woman asked tentatively, "Why don't you go and take a look?"
Jian Luo still had a child in his room. Lu Shifeng had gone hunting, and he was definitely worried about leaving the dragon cub with someone else, so he said, "Well, if there's anything, we can talk to my brother when he comes back."
The woman said, "Then I'll go and tell them."
Jian Luo: "Thank you."
Ever since what happened with Wen Ya, Jian Luo has been extremely cautious about everything. After returning to his room, he locked the door.
Long Aotian noticed his father's nervous breathing and didn't understand what was wrong with Jian Luo. Its wings had been much better recently. It felt a little itchy when the wound was healing, so it always liked to rub it everywhere. Now it was staggering and wanted to rub the corner of the table.
Jian Luo: "Long Aotian!"
Heizi shrank his head.
Jian Luo was afraid that he would tear the wound, so he sighed and came over to pick it up: "Dad will fight the dragon soon."
Long Aotian rubbed him in a flattering manner.
Just as Jian Luo was thinking, there was another knock on the door. Jian Luo didn't even turn around: "Aunt, I told you, I won't be going for the time being. If there is anything, we can talk about it when my brother comes back."
There was a pause outside, and then a man's voice came: "Mr. Jian, I am Da Sima. I heard that you are not in a good condition, so I want to talk to you."
“…”
In an instant, all the hairs on Jian Luo's body stood up. In a panic, he couldn't control the strength of his fingers that were pinching Heizi, and Heizi cried out in pain.
Jian Luo was stunned and quickly let go: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry."
The cub's cries were obviously heard outside. Da Sima was silent for a while and then said, "Mr. Jian, you don't have to be afraid. If you are on guard against me, let's just talk about it."
Jian Luo took all three of them into his arms and looked out the door warily: "What do you want to talk about?"
Da Sima said: "I know, you need the witch stone."
"Witch Stone has the ability to eliminate magnetic fields, and is effective against radiation, dark rays, and even post-war pollution." Da Sima said, "For thousands of years, to prevent the covetousness of foreign races, we have closed off our planet, preferring technological backwardness to revealing our treasures to the public. Otherwise, we would be met with catastrophic disaster."
Jian Luo said: "I promise I won't tell anyone."
Da Sima laughed sullenly: "No, I came to you not to ask you to keep it secret, but to cooperate."
Jian Luo: "What?"
"Our planet is the largest witch stone mine. The witch stones here are inexhaustible." Da Sima's voice was full of confidence: "If you are willing, I am willing to cooperate with you and provide you with witch stone mines for free, and it will be a special supply."
Of course, Jian Luo didn't know that there would be no such thing as a free lunch tomorrow: "What do you want?"
Da Sima was also very straightforward: "Dragon scales."
Jian Luo frowned, his eyes instantly became alert, his muscles tensed, he was in a defensive posture, and he was even a little afraid that the man would force his way in.
Da Sima was very calm: "I need a dragon scale to save my son's life."
Jian Luo clenched his hands, which turned white due to the force. He didn't want to say a word, nor did he want to listen to these things. There were countless sufferings in this world, and he and his child could not save them all. He didn't have the ability to save all living beings, he just wanted to protect his child.
