After Long Mo left, Hu Jiaojiao made breakfast for the cubs, and continued to concentrate on supervising the beastmen to build the stone house.

After Long Yao had eaten and drunk his fill, he immediately lay back in the wooden house and fell asleep.

"Ah~" Xiaowu wants to get enough sleep while daddy is not at home!

This way, he won't be sleepy when daddy comes back!

Long Yao, who is simple-minded, doesn't know yet, and feels that he can't get enough sleep in advance.

Long Ling'er came to the river to clean her precious knife. This is her daily routine. She cleans it with clean water and then polishes it carefully to keep the blade sharp. She

moved cautiously, as if she had a priceless treasure in her hand.

Long Ling'er was lowering her head and polishing the knife on a large stone, when she suddenly saw a pair of familiar shoes in front of her.

It was the shoes made by her mother.

She looked up and found that it was Long Zhong. She pouted and complained:

"Third brother, what are you doing? You walked over here without saying a word. You walked without making any sound, just like an elf."

Legend has it that in the dark forest, there lived a group of elves who came and went without a trace and often enjoyed scaring passing beastmen.

Some even confuse beastmen and capture them as food. In the eyes of beastmen, elves are just like human ghosts.

Beastmen often use stories about elves to scare little kids, asking them to be obedient and not run around, otherwise they will be captured by the terrifying elves.

Because Long Zhong was serious and often bullied her with a sharp tongue, Long Ling'er always compared him with elves.

Long Zhong said nothing, took something out of his pocket, and handed over a black object.

"What is this?" Long Ling'er stretched her neck and looked over curiously, but did not reach out to take it immediately.

"For you." Long Zhong curled his lips, took two steps forward, and stuffed the object directly into Long Ling'er's hand.

Long Ling'er lowered her head and took a closer look, and found that the black object was made of animal skin, with a layer of short fur on the outside. It felt a bit rough, and the workmanship was not fine. It was obvious that it was made for the first time.

However, the seams did not feel prickly at all.

She held it in her hand and looked at it, and asked curiously, "What is it used for?"

As soon as she finished speaking, she found that this thing was similar in shape to her precious knife.

Long Ling'er tried to put the knife in.

"!!" It was just right!

"Third brother, is this the clothes you made for my knife?"

Long Ling'er's eyes lit up instantly, flashing brightly, and she turned to look at Long Zhong excitedly.

Why didn't she think of making clothes for the knife!

Long Zhong immediately turned his head away and said with a disdainful tone, "Just do it casually, wrap your knife well, so as not to hurt the orcs when you go out and cause trouble for us."

In fact, he was afraid that she would accidentally cut herself.

After all, it is a sharp weapon, and she is a little female.

However, Long Ling'er seemed to have not heard Long Zhong's words of disdain at all, squinting her eyes and smiling sweetly, "Thank you, third brother, for making clothes for my knife, I like it very much."

After that, she couldn't let it go and played with it, and added another sentence.

"It likes it, too."

"I told you to just do it casually, not on purpose." Long Zhong corrected with a cold face, his face as black as charcoal.

Long Ling'er laughed twice, without refutation, and her smile became even more brilliant.

Long Zhong snorted lightly, turned around and left.

On the other side.

Long Yu clenched his fists, his eyes were fierce, and he punched the towering tree in front of him one punch after another, honing his body and strength.

Standing in front of the tree, his small body was as small as a blade of grass. Every time he punched, the tree didn't even react, only making a dull sound of flesh colliding with a hard object, but he didn't slack off at all.

One punch, two punches... hundreds of punches, thousands of punches.

As long as he perseveres, one day he will be able to knock down this tree, and then kill all the bad guys who bully his family, become the strongest beastman, and protect his younger brothers and sisters, and protect his mother.

Long Xiu stood not far from him, his eyes closed, listening quietly to any movement in the forest, holding the slingshot given to him by Foxy in his hand.

The sound of wind, falling leaves, collisions, and birds flapping their wings...

all kinds of sounds mixed together and reached his ears. It is difficult for ordinary people to distinguish the directions of all the sounds. There

was not a trace of anxiety on Long Xiu's cold face. The hammering sounds were like bells and drums, in his ears and in his heart, like a ruler, measuring the distance between him and other sounds.

A breeze blew by.

The bird on the tree couldn't stand Long Yu's destruction of the tree, and it flapped its wings and chirped, and flew away from the branch in an instant.

Long Xiu's ears moved, and he raised his hand in an instant, and the small stone on his fingertips accurately shot at the bird.

"Pah."

It was the sound of stones hitting each other.

Long Yu retracted his fist, and saw a gray sparrow fell to the ground, twitched twice, and died.

He looked at Long Xiu in surprise, and a happy smile appeared on his face, which was always stern like a little old man, "Second brother, you hit it!"

Long Xiu was also stunned, and then pursed his lips, and a faint smile appeared on his delicate face.

"Well done." Long Yu picked up the little sparrow, walked up and patted Long Xiu on the shoulder.

This was the first time he saw Long Xiu smile.

It seemed that since he was born, his younger brother had always had a gloomy face, always hiding in the dark, unwilling to see the light, unwilling to come into contact with beastmen, and even spoke very little to them.

He thought that he would never see Long Xiu smile in his life!

Long Yu took his hand and put the little sparrow in his hand.

Long Xiu put down the slingshot, and kept stroking the little sparrow in his hand with both hands. The temperature of the sparrow had not yet subsided, and his slightly trembling fingertips touched the soft feathers, giving him a warm touch.

This is his prey!

This is the first time he caught prey by his own strength!

Although it was just a small bird, he was the last one to complete it among the brothers and sisters.

But for him, this seemed like a huge step forward in his life.

"Brother, I did it, I really can."

After a long while, Long Xiu moved his lips that seemed to weigh a thousand pounds, and said with a trembling voice.

He is no longer a useless waste.

He is now a waste that is a little useful!

At least... he is a little more useful than before, so she can dislike him less, right?

A relieved smile appeared on Long Yu's face. Although Long Xiu couldn't see it, he still nodded vigorously, "Well, you are great."

Long Xiu's body swayed, because he stood in the same place for too long without moving, his legs were numb.

Long Yu quickly supported him and frowned.

"Second brother, this is enough. In the future, take care of your rest and don't work so hard."

He is the eldest brother. Even if Long Xiu has no ability in the future, he can take care of him all his life. He only hopes that his younger brothers and sisters can be safe and sound. He can shoulder all the heavy responsibilities.

Long Xiu pursed his lips and raised his hand to press the back of Long Yu's hand, which was already covered with a thick layer of welts. He

said in a light tone:

"Brother, if you hammer this hand again, it will be useless like my eyes."

Long Yu's body stiffened and his face suddenly frowned.

Remembering that he couldn't see, he deliberately said in a slightly angry voice:

"Am I the eldest brother, or are you the eldest brother?"
