Doomsday Totem

Chapter 48 Brothers
If someone else said this sentence, Iron Slag would probably slash it with a knife, but when he said it from Lina Yuklis, he would think carefully...

However, although he doesn't have a machismo complex, he really can't do things like relying on a woman's help to change his destiny.

Seeing Tie Slag's hesitation, Lina raised her voice and pretended to say, "Yo~ I'm still struggling with the little man's complex~"

"No..." "What does that mean? Do you think you can't accept help from a woman?" "Yeah."

"So..." Lina elongated her voice first, then her face changed, and she asked angrily, "Sister is not a woman anymore?"

"It's a woman..." "It turns out that you have never regarded your sister as a woman!" Lina's anger became even bigger.

Faced with Lina's unreasonable troubles, Tie Slag really couldn't bear it.Rabbits will bite people when they are in a hurry, not to mention a wild wolf.As a result, the wolf bared its teeth and pounced on it!The lioness, who was still aggressive before, became the prey in an instant, retreating steadily under the bite of sharp teeth, and finally only the conquered gasp remained...

Of course, wolves in the grassland would not dare to mess with lionesses, after all, lions are much bigger and stronger than wolves.But in the Iron Mountain Township Council Sheriff's Office, the situation is different.Now the lioness has lost all her strength, and can only let the hungry wolf cut her open, drink blood and eat meat...

After half an hour...

Iron Slag comfortably pushed the brand new Harley-Five down the stairs.Ye Xinling, who was waiting in the office hall, greeted her.When she saw the locomotive beside Tie Slag, her eyes widened immediately, she looked at it over and over again, and finally cried out, "Immortal Warhawk, Master, is this Immortal Warhawk?"

"You understand this too?" Tie Slag asked back.

Ye Xinling wrinkled her nose, then hummed, and said, "Xinling is not a little girl who doesn't understand anything."

"So...you're a brat who knows everything?" Tie Slag teased her happily.

"Xinling is what Master thinks Xinling is." Ye Xinling said obediently.

Iron Slag didn't answer, and then pushed Harley-[-] to the door of the self-government association, trying to start the car.The moment the accelerator was turned on, the engine made an ear-splitting roar, and then a powerful airflow spurted out from the bottom of the car body!Blow the dust and confetti around you into the air.Immediately afterwards, Halley [-] slowly lifted off the ground, and finally suspended at a height of [-] centimeters.

In the diffuse dust, the body of Harley-Davidson No. [-] still reflects the dazzling luster, like a bright light in the dark.Whether it's appearance, voice, or temperament, there is a calm domineering like a mountain.

"Wow, that's amazing!" Ye Xinling exclaimed while covering her mouth to avoid the dust.Then she saw Iron Slag tightly shut his lips, striding onto the locomotive.At this time, she saw a picture that she would never forget.

The domineering car and the heroic boy seem to be born for each other.Just like a sword handed down from generation to generation, only when it is held in the hands of a hero can it radiate true brilliance.At this moment, the boy in the picture stretched out his hand to her, but she responded stupidly, as if everything in front of her was unreal...

The next moment, Harley [-] galloped away amidst the roar, and left Iron Mountain Town.

After ten minutes...

Iron Slag drives a new car into Lao Niu's repair shop.Stopping the car, he imitated the sound of animals, "Moo...moo..."

A few seconds later, the old cow rushed out of the tin shed in a hurry. When he first met him, he pointed at the iron slag and shouted excitedly, "Iron slag! You forgot to leave the money for the winter when you left! Now the food and vegetables are gone. I didn’t buy it, and the fuel merchants and coal merchants will leave soon! Give me the money quickly! Otherwise, I won’t be able to survive this winter!”

Tie Slag scratched his hair, took out the money bag from the canvas bag of the motorcycle, and threw it to the old cow, saying, "There are more than 100 gold in it, which is enough to buy things for the winter."

Lao Niu took the money bag, didn't talk to Tie Slag, turned around and ran out of the repair shop, heading towards Tieshan Town.

"Why didn't Brother Niu drive there?" Ye Xinling asked.

"He forgot." Tie Slag grinned.

Half an hour later, Lao Niu led two rear eight-wheel trucks and a fuel tanker back to the repair shop.One truck was loaded with coal, the other with grain and vegetables for the winter.The food is mainly rice, wheat, and potatoes, while the vegetables are all Chinese cabbage and white radish.Because in winter, only these two vegetables are the best to keep.

The old cow dug a cellar at the bottom of the tin shed to store food for the winter.Iron Slag basically doesn't know how to do this, and comes to Lao Niu's house for dinner every winter.However, Lao Niu's cooking skills are very average. The food he cooks can only be said to be full, but there is no way to eat it.

Next, Lao Niu transported a large amount of grain and vegetables into the cellar. After the arrangements were made, he cooperated with the fuel merchants to push the empty tin oil tanks from the warehouse to the tank trucks. Back to the warehouse.After finishing the food and fuel, Lao Niu cooperated with the coal boss to dump a cart of coal on the open space of the repair shop...

At the same time, Tie Zha found a beach chair and sat aside, watching Lao Niu busily unloading goods.While massaging him, Ye Xinling asked, "Master, why don't you help Brother Niu when you see him busy all by himself?"

Tie Slag frowned and said, "I went to help, but he had objections, but he was very happy when I sat here."

"Why?" "Why are there so many?" "Who doesn't want help from others, Master, you are being lazy."

"How about this, you go and try." After speaking, Tie Zha squinted his eyes and pretended to fall asleep, ignoring Ye Xinling.

Ye Xinling came to Lao Niu, first combed her hair, and then asked with a smile, "Brother Niu, is there anything Xinling can help you with, it's too hard for you to work alone."

"Go, go, go, don't cause trouble for people who don't know how to do things." "But, Xinling..."

"Go, go, go..." The old cow waved his hand impatiently, like chasing flies away.

Ye Xinling stomped her feet vigorously and said, "Brother Niu, don't look at Xinling as a woman, she can do things no worse than a man."

The old cow frowned, pointed to the iron slag on the beach chair, and said, "Sister, you are just like him, just watch from the sidelines, don't make trouble, I will make things myself so that I won't break them, go quickly... "The old cow was a little excited when he spoke, with two big nostrils blowing into the sky, looking very much like a stubborn cow.

Helpless, Ye Xinling had no choice but to go back to Tie Zha and muttered, "Brother Niu is really weird, he doesn't appreciate people trying to help him."

Tie Slag grinned and said, "We've known each other for many years, he's just like that, he always thinks that others will mess with his things."

"I will definitely not be able to marry a wife in the future." Ye Xinling said in a low voice.

"Why marry a wife?"

"Can...can...can do it!" Ye Xinling replied with a blushing face.

"But, it's okay if you don't marry." Tie Slag seemed to want to get to the bottom of it. After all, at his age, he didn't have any idea about marriage or getting a wife.

"Okay~ Please let Xinling teach the master a lesson about what it means to get married and marry a wife."

"Let's talk." Although Tie Slag's tone was somewhat casual, he was still quite interested in the knowledge he didn't understand.

"One's life will always meet someone who understands each other..."

"Yeah." Tie Slag nodded, and asked back, "Do I count with Lao Niu?"

"It's not counting... it's between a man and a woman." "Can't men understand each other?" "Uh..." Ye Xinling was at a loss for words for a while, after thinking for a while, she said, "Men and men can't have sex." After falling, Ye Xinling felt that her words were inappropriate. After all, she used to see a lot of messy things in Shacheng.

"Does it count if we have a relationship?" Tie Slag asked.Ye Xinling nodded, thankfully Tie Zha didn't know much, otherwise she wouldn't be able to answer.

"There are a lot of people in Tieshan Town who can have sex with just one silver coin..."

"Those don't count!" Ye Xinling exclaimed.Because she was a little anxious, she unconsciously accentuated her tone, and then woke up, feeling a little disrespectful to her master's tone, so she hurriedly explained, "Master, Xin Ling... Xin Ling didn't mean that."

"Does it count or not?" Tie Slag asked.

When Ye Xinling was confused, Lao Niu sent away several businessmen, then took out the tools for making honeycomb coal from the warehouse, connected the water pipe to wet the coal pile, and then mixed the coal and water evenly with a shovel.

After making preparations, Lao Niu took the stamper and poured wet coal into it, and then printed short cylindrical coal blocks with honeycomb holes, and finally placed them on the open space to dry.After about two weeks, these briquettes can be put into use.

after an hour……

The old cow wiped the sweat from his forehead, looked at the neat rows of briquettes, was filled with emotion, and remembered many past events.Several years ago, when he and Iron Slag were not friends, they often robbed things in the same garbage dump.Iron Slag is agile, fast, and quick to react, but he doesn't know what is valuable.And Lao Niu understands machinery and what parts are valuable, but his skills are too slow.They are all orphans, and they are all people who have eaten this meal and don't know what the next meal will be, so they have no affection for each other.As long as it is valuable, it will be fought to the end.

But they follow the same rule - first come, first served.

No matter how valuable something is obtained by others, it cannot be snatched.

They just robbed garbage in the same area in peace.Gradually, the two got acquainted with each other...

Maybe it's because of the similar age, maybe it's because they're both orphans, maybe it's because of the same kindness.Sometimes the old cow would fiddle with valuable parts in front of Iron Slag to let him learn what is valuable, but Iron Slag would sometimes deliberately ignore the valuable things and let the old cow follow him to pick them up.

Even so, the two still haven't communicated with each other...

Until one day, an unruly adult snatches items from the trash.Lao Niu and Tie Slag scolded each other angrily at the same time.As a result, the other party recruited a large group of people and gave them a hard lesson.

Within a few days, Tie Slag came to Lao Niu...

To this day, Lao Niu can still clearly remember the first sentence Tie Slag said, he said:
"Brother, let's grab other people's things together in the future!"
