The long-sealed memories suddenly became clear like the coastline after the tide receded.
"I remember that time, Jiaojiao was only six years old, and she was still a little cub who knew nothing."
The patriarch said to himself.
Once people have a stereotype of others, they will only remember the memories they want to remember.
It's strange to say that Jiaojiao knew nothing when she was a child, but she was able to cure Long Mo. It is precisely because of this that Hu Min and Hu Qiang love this female cub very much and have been pampering her until now.
The four brothers Hu Qingshan also wanted to praise Hu Jiaojiao to the sky.
He thought Jiaojiao could become a veterinarian.
As a result, when she grew up and asked her if she was willing to study with the old veterinarian, she refused, and the matter was left unresolved.
Listening to the words of the clan leader, Xie Man's dark eyes flashed, and a hint of envy crossed his eyes.
That guy Long Mo actually knew Hu Jiaojiao so long ago.
If he could have known Hu Jiaojiao so long ago, would he be her partner now?
At the very least, he might have the qualifications to stand by her side...
"By the way, Xie Man." The clan leader suddenly looked at him and asked in a friendly manner, "You look two years older than Long Mo. Have you not found a partner yet?"
Xie Man was suddenly speechless with a broken heart.
"Yes."
Xie Man seemed to be wearing a mask of pain.
That guy Long Mo is not only better than him, but also younger than him.
The five cubs at home were flying around, and he couldn't even touch the hand of a female.
Beast by beast was really pissed off.
"You are an excellent and responsible strong man. When the wall is built and you settle down, it's time for you to find a partner. In addition to Jiaojiao, there are many good females in our tribe."
The chief patted his shoulder earnestly.
Like a worried old father.
Xieman opened his mouth, wanting to say something but stopping.
Why in addition to Fox Jiaojiao?
"Thank you, chief. I don't want to find a partner for the time being. I just want to take good care of these beastmen and cubs I brought out." His world is not only about partners, but also about the burden and responsibility on his shoulders.
If he was asked to abandon the eight hundred beastmen behind him to pursue Hu Jiaojiao, he would not be able to do it.
Xie Man knew this very well, so he never did anything beyond the limit and always suppressed his inner emotions.
"You, the Xiezhi tribe, are indeed responsible beastmen." The tribe leader showed a hint of admiration between his eyebrows.
The Xiezhi tribe is upright and righteous, and they will be the best leaders no matter where they go.
He and Long Mo, who came to the tribe alone and was stubborn and arbitrary, are two extremes.
The chieftain was an old-fashioned man who had lived for most of his life. Naturally, he saw the hidden feelings of Xieman for Hu Jiaojiao, and he was deliberately trying to discourage Xieman.
Xieman was very good, but he was not suitable to be Hu Jiaojiao's partner.
Well!
He definitely didn't say that because he didn't want any beastman to get in the way between Hu Jiaojiao and Long Mo.
Hearing this, Xieman smiled bitterly and said nothing.
If possible, he envied Long Mo for doing things carelessly without considering the consequences.
But sometimes the blood genes flowing in the bones cannot be changed.
"Okay, there are still many females in the tribe who haven't dug wells. If you need anything in the future, just come to me directly." The chieftain waved his hand and prepared to go back.
"Thank you, Chief." Xieman responded and watched the chief leave.
After drinking the warm water, the beastmen worked harder.
A group of beastmen, as if they had been injected with chicken blood, began to move stones with a grunt.
"Boss, there is a male over there, watching us nearby." Xieman was busy when a beastman suddenly ran over and said with a strange look on his face.
Xieman stopped what he was doing and turned to look over.
He saw a beastman in his early twenties, who looked thin, with unshaven beard and messy hair like a wild beastman.
The eyes that seemed to penetrate the space did not seem to be looking at them, but rather looking at something else through them. When
the beastmen next to him heard this, they also echoed it.
"I've seen him many times. He comes here almost every day and stays here for hours."
"Is there something wrong with him? He looks a little strange..." The beastman pointed to his head, his face full of suspicion.
Hearing this, the other beastmen showed sympathy.
Although they lived a miserable life, they were mentally sound after all.
"Go and ask him if he needs help." Xieman pondered for a moment and instructed the beastman next to him.
The beastman nodded and ran over quickly.
But before he could get close, the male who was standing motionless in the distance suddenly turned around and left.
He was so fast that he disappeared in the blink of an eye.
"..."
The beastman looked puzzled. This male...seems to have good ears and is incredibly fast. He doesn't look mentally retarded.
Why does he seem to have lost his soul?
...
At Fox Jiaojiao's home.
There is a table full of wood in the living room. Fox Jiaojiao is making a small catapult sample according to the drawings.
Long Mo looked at her white and tender fingers that were rubbed red by the wood. A trace of heartache flashed in his deep eyes. He reached out and took the wood.
"I'll do it."
Fox Jiaojiao's hands were suddenly empty.
She turned to look at Long Mo, who looked serious, "But you can't read the drawings and don't know the size."
"You teach me, and I will." The low, mellow voice was cold, arrogant and confident.
Hu Jiaojiao looked helpless as she glanced at the complicated drawings. It took her a long time to understand them. And how could Long Mo learn all those size and proportion data immediately?
However, looking at Long Mo's persistent eyes, she still couldn't bear to refuse.
Forget it, just learn it.
It's a good thing to learn more.
At worst, she can just find new materials to make it.
"Okay, I'll teach you." Fox Jiaojiao nodded, picked up a thin little wooden stick from the table, pointed to the numbers at the top of the drawing, and taught Long Mo from the most basic.
"These are numbers, from one to ten."
"These are numbers, quantities, materials, proportions and units."
"Here represents the precision of the parts, and here is the process drawing. The assembly methods of those parts are all in the process drawing..."
Fox Jiaojiao patiently explained one by one. Although she didn't think Long Mo could learn it right away, she told him everything in detail.
If Long Mo is really interested in this, she would of course be happy to teach him. Even if he can't learn it in one go, she can teach him twice, three times, or ten times.
Seeing that Long Mo was listening very seriously and attentively, Hu Jiaojiao had even made plans for long-term teaching.
After she finished speaking, she found that Long Mo was staring at the drawings intently.
"Long Mo, don't worry. It took me a long time to understand these things. You have just started learning, so it is normal that you don't understand. Don't be too sad. If you like, I will teach you slowly."
Hu Jiaojiao thought that Long Mo was silent because he didn't understand, so she quickly comforted him in a gentle voice.
