We just walked around the city for a while, and she was sweating a little, so we went back. Bai Lu knew medicine and knew what level was most appropriate, so I listened to her more in this regard. After returning to the inn and going up to her room, she found a charcoal pencil and relatively good old paper, and began to draw some crooked lines. However, after only a short while, she stopped and put the pen at one end.
I was a little confused and asked, "What's wrong?"
At this time, she said, "Brother Zhou Bo, I can draw the design, but there is one thing I must make clear. Between me and Zhang Yunwen, who is your queen? Although she won the competition that time, it was not fair because she can interpret the language of the hyena people, so of course she can interpret the meaning of the hyena people better. I danced as well as she did, but I lost. I lost so much. There must be a trick. And the queen has always been decided by the king. So I want to ask, Brother Zhou Bo, what do you think?"
Again? I couldn't help getting angry when I heard this, and said, "Why? Are you going to use this to threaten me to give you the title of queen?"
"The spinning machine is very important for the hyena people to survive the harsh winter. If I provide you with the design drawings, so that you can make one according to the drawings, wouldn't it be a great contribution? I have protected the lives of so many hyena people, but in the end I couldn't get a reputation. Brother Zhou Bo, do you think this is fair? Not only me, but even Yingchun feels wronged for me." Bai Lu said.
I sneered and said, "Queen, are you worthy? Although this thing is virtual, it still carries some power. Do you think I will hand it over to a selfish person like you? I solemnly tell you today that Zhang Yunwen is your queen. I will explain this to all the hyena people. Are you satisfied?"
"Zhou Bo, you!" Bai Lu stood up and shouted.
"But if you draw a picture, I might think you have made a contribution. Maybe everyone will appreciate your kindness and let you compete with Yunwen for the position of queen, right? After all, fame is something that you have to cultivate yourself," I said.
This move of risking one's life in the face of danger made Bai Lu think again and again, and perhaps she felt that it made sense, so she sat down again and planned to draw a picture, but she still asked worriedly: "Zhou Bo, but if I draw, you will not be nice to me in the future, and start to drive me away, and then you will destroy the bridge after crossing the river, what should I do?"
"Negotiate terms, right? I, Zhou Bo, want to talk to you. If you draw it, there's still room for negotiation. If you don't, I can just divorce you. No matter what your status is, I can get rid of you because the decision-making power is in my hands. Do you still want to threaten me? So you are not qualified to negotiate with me. There is no other way except to obey or get out. As for you, if you want to leave and the child dies, you can only blame yourself, not me. For the sake of the child, you'd better think it over carefully." I threatened him.
She nodded and said, "Okay, I'll draw! But Brother Zhou Bo, I now find that you are becoming more and more like a king."
Indeed, if it were before, I might have been furious with her, but now I have a lot of things to take into consideration, and after being together for such a long time, I should have figured out a way to deal with her. She threatens me, and I threaten her too instead of being manipulated by her, so she can do nothing to me now.
Now I tell her that I am the one who decides all titles, I am the king, and she cannot usurp my power, so she thinks I am starting to act like a king, because I have begun to think of myself as a king.
After some negotiations, she gave in and began to draw those pictures stroke by stroke. I could vaguely see the shape. Although her drawings were crooked, at least I could make out the general outline. It looked like a small windmill. I have never seen that kind of thing, but fortunately, perhaps the member of the scientific expedition team in Bai Lu's body had been exposed to these things, understood the principles, and understood the mechanics, so she could be somewhat proficient in it.
The drawings were finally finished, and at this time I heard a noise outside and Xiaoying's footsteps downstairs. It should be some special affair outside the city, so I went downstairs with the design drawing, Bailu followed me, and Xiaoying saw that I was anxious and said a few words in the hound language that I couldn't understand, and then took us all the way out of the city.
I could hear a lot of footsteps outside the city, the sound was deafening, it was obvious that there were many invaders outside. I was about to go up to the tower when I heard someone outside shouting, "Zhou Bo, open the door quickly."
I knew the voice was Yunwen's as soon as I heard it. I hurriedly gave orders to the hyena guards and they went to open the city gate. I saw Yunwen and Bailu walking in front, led by a head sheep, and behind them were many goats, all following closely. It seemed that Yunwen had already negotiated and brought them all here. In addition, Yunwen specially carried a backpack when she went out in the morning, and now the backpack was full, which showed that she had done my instructions very well.
Bai Lu was stunned. She had thought that goats would come, but she had not expected that so many of them would follow her on their own initiative. Yun Wen got off San Fu's back, and I hurried over to greet them, saying, "So many? What about the prison area? Will it affect the defense there?"
Yunwen shook her head and said, "Don't worry, only one batch of goats came, and the others are still there to continue to look after us. I haven't counted them accurately, but there should be thirty or forty of them. They are all willing to help us ward off evil spirits and defend ourselves. I also asked them about taking their fur, and they said they didn't mind, but we can't let them get cold in the winter."
"No problem, let's welcome them all in first," I said.
Bai Lu was still feeling evil at the moment, and she was so scared when she saw so many goats that her face turned pale. After saying something to me anxiously, she hurried back to the house.
As the flock of sheep entered the city, I began to count them one by one. There were a total of forty-three, including the one I found yesterday. After they came in, the hyena people all visited and watched. Although these goats looked ordinary, they were actually quite special. Their brains seemed to have been enlightened. Therefore, when I captured the goat yesterday, it took me a lot of effort and courage. This made me think that everything on this island might be different from the understanding of the civilized world.
Who would have thought that these goats were all guardians against evil spirits, and that they had all been enlightened? That was why Yunwen was able to negotiate this and let them settle here to help us resist the powerful enemy.
For the forty-three sheep, I temporarily gave them a slightly empty space on the west side, which was temporarily unused and was in two directions away from the hillside to prevent them from damaging the fields. Thirty sheep moved in there first under Yunwen's arrangement. Yunwen explained the situation to the head sheep, and they stayed there.
The relationship between the fox tribe and the sheep tribe was already good, so the little red foxes also began to play with them. Sanfu also had a good impression of them, so it seemed that some of them could temporarily act as shepherds from now on.
When she opened the backpack again, she saw that it was full of dead leaves and seeds. Yunwen said that she would find time to plant them later. Although it is unknown how long it will take for them to grow now, and distant water cannot quench nearby fire, at least planting them is definitely better than not planting them.
I also told Yunwen about the spinning machine design drawing. She took a look at it, and I knew she had already written it down at that time. Then I took Lingshang and Yunwen to plant trees outside the city first. The tree was really magical. The moment the seeds were put down, some fibers immediately grew and began to take root and sprout. A lot of resin was also coated on the city wall. Then we went to the blacksmith shop. Yunwen began to communicate with the hyena people and told them everything about size, length, and size, in preparation for making the spinning machine and writing down all the processes.
But these are all happy things. There were also some situations that we encountered. After everything was arranged, we returned to the post station. Lingshang and Yunwen talked about the accidents they encountered. When Yunwen arrived near the place of imprisonment, she was stared at by many lizardmen. They all gathered at the edge and wanted to swallow Yunwen. In addition, Yunwen's arm was pierced by a rotten fork thrown out from there.
Although the wound is gone now, the arm is slightly black and covers a large area. Yunwen said that the black part has expanded a lot.
The most terrifying thing is that Yunwen said that the full moon night is ten days later, and she can feel that her arm is getting more and more painful as time goes by.
