Chapter 19 Fear of Fire
At this time, the fire pile between Su Ran and the werewolf was more than twice the size of the previous pile.

After seeing the branches above the fire burning smoothly, Su Ran took out a burning branch from the outer part of the fire, and prepared to light the other two newly built fires next to it.

As a result, as soon as she turned around holding the burning branch, she was dazed by the scene behind her.

I saw that the orcs who had just been busy helping with branches and handling prey under the instruction of the werewolf suddenly hid one by one a few meters away from her.

Seeing her turn around and walk over at this time, one by one actually started to retreat again and again!

Some of the fast-moving ones even jumped up and down the tree behind, and there were two winged orcs flying above their heads, looking like they wanted to get close but didn't dare.

Su Ran was stunned for a moment, and didn't realize what the orcs' actions meant for a moment.

It wasn't until she took two steps forward and realized that the orcs were staring at the burning branch in her hand that she suddenly realized.

These orcs are afraid of fire.

Su Ran blinked and felt even more strange.

But the werewolf's attitude towards fire at the beginning is why there is no fear?

She turned her head to look at the werewolf who was standing aside and yelling at a few orcs. She felt more and more that werewolves had been used too much before, but for some reason they disappeared later.

The remaining two fires were quickly lit.

Probably it was okay to see her walking freely around the fire, and with the "lobbying" of the werewolves, the orcs who watched from afar gradually relaxed their vigilance.

The daring orcs began to approach the fire slowly, but they always kept a distance of more than two meters.

After lighting the fire, Su Ran began to insert wooden sticks around the first fire to make barbecue supports.

There must be at least twelve sets of supports for the three fires. The wooden sticks used to make the supports are very thick and need to be smashed into the ground with stones to fix them.

At this time, she couldn't rely entirely on herself. Su Ran looked up at the werewolf not far away, opened her mouth, but stopped halfway - she hadn't named the werewolf yet.

After a moment of hesitation at last, she had no choice but to shout at the werewolf: "Hey..."

Then seeing the werewolf turning his head and looking at her in confusion, he couldn't help but touch his forehead.

She felt that she should give the werewolf a name as soon as possible and let it know, otherwise it would be too awkward to shout "Hey" every time she looked for it.

It would be even more embarrassing if the werewolf called "Hey" as his own name.

Although the werewolf didn't understand what Su Ran's "hey" meant, he ran back quickly when he saw Su Ran waving.

It is no stranger to the action of building a wooden frame. Seeing the action demonstrated by Su Ran at this time, after realizing that this time the wooden frame does not need to be placed on both sides of the fire, but built around the side of the fire, he quickly grasped it. focus.

The base of the fire is round, and wooden sticks are inserted on the side of the fire, and prey is added to every two sticks, so that the barbecue can be suspended above the flames.

Although the roasting will be a little slower in this position, it can roast a little more than the previous one.

After all, there are too many orcs, and they seem to have a lot of food, so Su Ran dare not give each of them a fire to roast by herself.

After building a wooden frame for the fire with the werewolf, Su Ran walked to the pile of prey that had been cleaned up and put on branches by the orcs, and found a slightly larger prey.

The size of the prey was huge, estimated to be one hundred and twenty to thirty catties, and Su Ran couldn't take it down by herself.

She looked at the orcs who had gradually gathered, looked around in the crowd, then raised her eyebrows suddenly, and waved in one direction: "Xiaoju!"

"Meow~"

The little orange cat in the crowd, who had been watching Su Ran's movements, immediately pricked up his ears when he heard Su Ran's call, and quickly responded with a vigorous voice, and walked over quickly, bouncing around.

Su Ran watched her approach, then pointed to the branch with the prey in her hand: "Help me carry it."

As she spoke, she lifted one end of the branch, making a motion to pick it up.

Xiaoju began to look very serious when Su Ran spoke, as if trying to understand what Su Ran said.

But after waiting for a long time, it could be seen from its face that this little guy still didn't understand what Su Ran meant.

There was no way, Su Ran put down the branch in her hand, and stepped forward to take Xiaoju's hand.

Probably because it didn't expect Su Ran's handshake, the little orange cat flinched a bit, and when it came to its senses, it immediately raised its tail happily again.

Su Ran put the end of the branch with the prey on it into Xiaoju's palm, and held her hand tightly.

Xiaoju's golden eyes blinked, and the black pupils gradually enlarged to cover the entire round eyes. The golden ears on the top of the head trembled, then it clenched its hands and looked at Su Ran who opened his mouth slightly: "Meow? Ran...then ?”

Su Ran was taken aback when she heard Xiaoju call her name.

She almost forgot that Xiaoju could already say her name.

After so many days, Su Ran suddenly felt an inexplicable emotion when she heard her own name when she was not prepared.

That was the longing for her family that was pressed down in her heart.

"Mia~"

Xiaoju's pink and tender face did not know when it had come close to her eyes, and the two black pupils that had occupied the entire eyes seemed to be a clear pool of water, reflecting her figure in it.

Su Ran could see the deep worry and tension in it.

Orcs are highly sensitive to emotions.

"fine."

Su Ran pretended to smile relaxedly, raised her hand to touch the top of Xiaoju's head, and then continued with her previous actions.

It's just that what she didn't see was that the werewolf who was facing them not far behind had a big tail hanging behind him, but his ears turned straight behind him.

Su Ran grasped the other end of the branch and lifted it vigorously. Following her movements, Xiaoju subconsciously followed and lifted the branch.

Su Ran quickly used her strength to lift the prey off the pile of meat, and then walked towards the fire with Xiaoju.

Xiaoju immediately understood Su Ran's meaning when Su Ran carried the prey to the direction of the fire, so she exerted a little force, and the branch in her hand was lifted a little higher, and Su Ran felt her arm relaxed instantly. Quite a lot.

After walking to the fire, Su Ran put the branch in her hand on one of the tree stands, then turned to look at Xiaoju.

This glance didn't make her laugh outright!
I saw that Xiaoju was standing at the other end of the branch, but at a right angle to the fire.

At this time, she was holding a branch with one hand, but her arms were long stretched out, the ears on the top of her head were turned to the ears of the plane, and the fear of the fire was still shining in her eyes.

At this moment, seeing Su Ran looking over, she quickly shook her shoulders and called out to her:
"Meow~"
