In Love

It’s been getting colder and colder recently.

In the center of their tribe’s open space, after years of people trampling on it, the soil has become very hard, not even a single grass can grow on it. Not only that, even if they wash something, the water won’t easily seep into the ground.

After it rained the day before yesterday, there were some small puddles in this open space. After one night, the water in the small puddles froze, they haven’t melted yet.

The area where the giant tiger tribe is located should belong to the subtropical monsoon climate zone. Although the leaves of many trees have fallen, there are also many plants that are still green.

But even if it’s still green, the grass is frozen hard these days.

It’s too cold.

People in the tribe are very cold. If the sun is out, people will still go out hunting with their animal skin wrapped around, but today…

The ground was frozen, the north wind was blowing, and snow was fluttering.

Faced with this situation…Even if today is a hunting day, everyone is unwilling to go hunting.

They still have food leftovers, since they won’t die of hunger…then just lie down at home!

Hu Xiu went out early in the morning, wandered around the tribe, then came back.

When he opened the wooden door at the entrance of the cave and came in, the cold wind and snowflakes also came in, making Yan Jingze, who had turned into a beast, shiver uncontrollably.

Recently…he doesn’t want to go out anymore.

The same goes for the other people in the tribe. The people in the giant tiger tribe, who like to socialize, are all hiding in the tree hole now and don’t want to go out.

Compared with the outside, the tree hole that can shelter from wind and rain is really too warm!

For example, Hu Xiu’s tree hole…the inside is covered with soft and dry grass layer by layer. When Yan Jingze turned into his animal shape and got into the grass, he didn’t want to come out again.

But now that Hu Xiu is back…Yan Jingze got out, ran to Hu Xiu’s feet, grabbed Hu Xiu’s legs, wanting to climb up.

“I’m cold.” Hu Xiu didn’t hug Yan Jingze.

Yan Jingze: “Woof!” He came out to let him hug because he knew he was cold!

Hu Xiu took off his animal skin and put it on a high shelf, and then sat down. Seeing this, Yan Jingze immediately crawled into his arms, and began…to absorb the surrounding spiritual energy.

As soon as Hu Xiu hugged Yan, he felt warm instantly.

After he became stronger, the cold didn’t seem to be a big problem for him.

Or maybe because of Yan, his tree hole became much warmer.

Speaking of which, the people in their tribe had a good life this winter.

They store more than enough meat!

And this has a lot to do with Yan.

After they ate all the meat from the big dinosaur that they couldn’t store, everyone in the tribe got fatter, then the hunting team resumed hunting.

When the hunting team went hunting, Yan also went with them.

At the beginning, he was very reluctant — if Yan went with them, his white skin and tender meat might be bitten by bugs and scratched by plants.

However, nothing like that happened.

No matter how fast they were, Yan could keep up with them. Not only that, even if those bugs bit the roughest and thickest of them, they would never bite Yan.

Yan wore a hat woven of tiny vines and followed them around without getting any tan!

Yan has also become their hunting team trump card.

When they were hunting, Yan generally didn’t intervene. He will just watch from the side, but when they are in danger…

Yan will remind them at the beginning, then if they can’t get out of it, Yan will easily solve the ‘danger’.

For example, they previously accidentally awakened a poisonous snake. If it was before, the members of the hunting team would probably be bitten by the poisonous snake, but now…Yan took the snake back to the tribe and made a pot of soup with it.

It was quite delicious.

Yan even taught them some ways to catch prey.

Some of the food stored in their tribe belonged to the big dinosaur before but some were caught by them a few days ago.

The top of his hole is covered with meat.

Hu Xiu hugged the puppy in his arms and stroked it gently.

Yan Jingze let out a ‘woof’, closed his eyes and fell asleep.

The tree hole is very warm, but also very dark, plus he has no shortage of ‘exercise’, it’s very hard work, so he sleeps all day these days.

Hu Xiu was also affected by Yan Jingze, so he was also a little drowsy.

However, he couldn’t sleep.

The members of their giant tiger tribe will hold a mating ceremony in the tribe on the day when the sun rises after the first snow falls in winter.

Now, the first snow has fallen.

He also thought about it previously. He wanted to force Yan to marry him. If Yan disagreed, he would not give him meat, but now…

Yan is actually very good to him, he believes that Yan also like a bit.

However, some men and women in the tribe have more than one child and have not become mates yet. Would Yan be willing to become his mate?

You know, once they swear an oath in front of the Beast God, they can no longer betray each other or be with others, otherwise they will be punished by the Beast God!

Hu Xiu thought for a long time in a daze, and then he felt the little teddy on his body wake up.

He thought for a while, then said to little teddy, “Turn into a human.”

Yan Jingze: “…”

Yan Jingze turned into a human, and as expected, Hu Xiu kissed him.

His partner is really too enthusiastic!

He transmigrated and became a teddy. A teddy who can mess with the sky, earth, and air1Someone who is very awesome, he has always felt that his body is a little too sensitive, plus he knows how to cultivate…His ability is really very very strong!

As a result, Hu Xiu didn’t seem quite satisfied.

He hadn’t transmigrated to be a saber-toothed tiger before, so it was the first time he knew…that a saber-toothed tiger was so ‘strong’.

However, Hu Xiu was still not as good as him, so later…he fell asleep.

When Hu Xiu fell asleep, Yan Jingze took out some hair from under the thick dry grass that he had taken from his body and began to weave it.

He has always wanted to weave two pieces of clothes for Huxiu to wear, but unfortunately he didn’t find suitable materials before, and only recently discovered that…his hair is pretty good.

Teddy’s hair is very long and soft!

Of course, if he turns into a little teddy, it won’t be of much use even if he cuts off all the hair from his body, but after he transforms his animal shape to the maximum, and then combs his hair, it can be used to weave clothes!

Although the tree hole is very dark, he has spiritual energy…Yan Jingze quickly weaves it.

What he wove for Hu Xiu was a long robe with a sash.

Like this, Hu Xiu can quickly take off when he wants to change to his animal form.

It’s just that he was very busy before, so he hasn’t finished weaving until now.

But this is also very good, in two days when he and Hu Xiu became mates, he will put it on for Hu Xiu.

It’s a pity that he doesn’t have time to knit one for him.

Yan Jingze has the original owner’s memory, so he naturally knows when the tribe’s mate ceremony will be held.

People in the Giant Tiger Tribe count years from a cycle of four seasons, so they don’t count special dates. The mate ceremony is placed after the first snow in winter, because it’s easier to remember.

In addition…after the heavy snowfall, people generally don’t go hunting, so they are very free.

If there is no snow in any winter…then the Beast God tells those who want to get married to do so later…cough cough!

Of course, it usually still snows.

That night, the snow stopped.

Not only that, but the sun also rises high in the sky the next day.

Hu Xiu climbed out of the tree hole early in the morning. When he saw the sun in the sky, his expression froze.

The rest of the tribe were very happy: “The sun is out! The sun is out!”

“Is there anyone who wants to be mates today?”

“Hu Chun and her leopard want to be mates!”

“There’s also patriarch and Yan…Patriarch said before that they are going to be mates!”

…

As everyone said, they looked at Hu Xiu.

After Hu Xiu accidentally damaged Yan’s tree hole and made Yan live in his tree hole, he always talked about Yan to the people in the tribe.

At that time, he boasted about Yan all day long, and told other people in the tribe that he and Yan would be mates.

Everyone remembers it!

Hu Xiu: “…” He did say that back then.

At that time, he felt that since he gave Yan so much meat, Yan would definitely be inseparable from him and would definitely agree to be his mates, even if Yan disagreed…he could tie Yan and force him to married him.

But now, he can’t beat Yan!

Although Yan still lives in his tree hole, as long as Yan wants to, he can leave at any time!

Hu Xiu was a little anxious.

However, he didn’t let others notice it.

Everyone just felt that…patriarch had a serious face, as if he was thinking about something important.

Hu Chun asked: “Patriarch, are you ready to give Yan the gift?” The mate ceremony requires giving gifts to each other!

Hu Xiu said: “Of course I’m ready…how about you?”

“I’m ready too, but I’m a little hesitant. I don’t know if I should form a partner with Bao Shu…” Hu Chun was a little confused.

Hu Xiu immediately said: “It’s better to be mates, this way the family is more stable, it’s good for you and the child!”

If Hu Chun doesn’t marry Bao Shu…what if Yan starts to pursue her again after she has given birth in the future?

Hu Xiu always remembers how much Yan liked Hu Chun in the past!

“That’s…” Hu Chun thought for a moment, then she felt that what patriarch said made sense.

Hu Xiu breathed a sigh of relief.

Hu Chun then said: “Patriarch, if you liked me, we would have become mates and had a child by now.” Although she doesn’t like Hu Xiu anymore, after all, she had chased Hu Xiu for so long before, she always felt a bit regretful for not being with him.

“I only like Yan.” Hu Xiu’s voice was a little low.

“Okay…” said Hu Chun. Taking out a piece of barbecued meat to Hu Xiu, she said, “Patriarch, I really want to eat fried meat slices that Yan has done before on the stone slab, can I use this piece of meat to exchange for that stone slab from you?”

Hu Xiu thought for a moment and agreed: “Yes.” The stone slab was used by him before, and he had lent it to others…Yan probably didn’t mind lending the slab.

Hu Xiu reached out to pick up the meat that Hu Chun gave him.

However, the meat was snatched away before it reached his hands.

Yan Jingze grabbed the meat and looked at Hu Xiu angrily: “Why did she give you meat?”

He excitedly crawled out of the tree hole, wanting Hu Xiu to try the clothes he made, but then he saw Hu Chun giving meat to Hu Xiu and Hu Xiu actually accepted it!

This is too much!

Yan Jingze was a little unhappy!

When he was unhappy…he remembered something else!

In the original owner’s memory, there have always been many women who gave Hu Xiu meat!

There are so many people who want to dig his corner2To snatch something/someone you own!

Wait, Hu Xiu kept telling him about becoming mates before, but recently he didn’t mention a word, instead he kept talking about children…

This guy Hu Xiu, he didn’t start wanting a child after seeing Hu Chun was pregnant, right?

Yan Jingze believes that Hu Xiu likes him, but the primitive people in this world don’t really care about love. They all pay more attention to reproduction.

After they become mates, they will be devoted to their partner because they believe that those who betray their partners will be punished by the beast gods.

But if they didn’t become mates yet…then really, most people have no integrity.

Thinking of this, Yan Jingze looked at Hu Chun warily.

Hu Chun has pursued Hu Xiu for several years! several years!

Now that she is pregnant, she still gives meat to Hu Xiu.

Hu Chun: “…”

Hu Chun didn’t know what to say.

In the past, when she gave meat to Hu Xiu, Yan would get angry, and then he glared at Hu Xiu like this, but now…Yan glared at her!

When Yan first got together with Hu Xiu, she thought that Yan might be forced by Hu Xiu…But Yan was starving to death at that time, so it was a good choice to follow Hu Xiu, that’s why she didn’t say anything .

Later when Yan showed great strength, the reason why the women in the tribe asked Yan if he wanted to have children with them was because…Everyone thought that Yan and Hu Xiu were together because Yan wanted to fill his stomach.

But then Yan refused, so they also gave up.

Seeing that Yan and Hu Xiu’s relationship is so good recently, everyone didn’t think of anything else.

“I want to exchange things!” Said Hu Chun.

Yan Jingze coughed lightly: “What do you want in exchange?”

“I want to use your slab,” Hu Chun said.

“So it’s like this…Why didn’t you say it earlier?” Yan Jingze laughed, “I’ll bring you the slab right away!”

Hu Chun: “That’s not necessary, after the mate ceremony is over, you can bring it to me!”

“Alright.” Yan Jingze agreed, feeling a little depressed.

A few days ago, he wanted to tell Hu Xiu about becoming mates, but he had only mentioned the beginning and Hu Xiu seduced him, obviously he didn’t want to talk about it with him.

Does Hu Xiu want to go back on his word and didn’t want to be his mate?

Yan Jingze looked at Hu Xiu.

Hu Xiu was a little nervous.

These days, he deliberately didn’t mention the matter of becoming mates. When Yan mentioned it several times, he also deliberately interrupted Yan’s words, leading Yan to do happy things because he didn’t want to hear Yan’s refusal.

But now…the day has come.

If Yan is unwilling, he will definitely refuse now.

If Yan refuses…

Hu Xiu lowered his head, not looking at Yan Jingze.

Hu Xiu even avoided his sight!

Yan Jingze pinched Hu Xiu’s chin, lifted Hu Xiu’s face and kissed Hu Xiu’s mouth: “Hu Xiu!”

Hu Xiu, who was kissed in public, was a little dazed.

Yan Jingze was about the same size as Hu Xiu, so he looked directly at Hu Xiu and threatened darkly: “Hu Xiu, today is the day to form mates, you’d better be obedient and become my mate, otherwise…I will snatch your patriarch position and lock you in the tree hole, never let you go out!”

Hu Xiu liked to threaten him like this before, it’s time for Hu Xiu to feel it too!

It is just that Hu Xiu used to threaten him by not giving him meat, he just changed his threat a little bit!

Hu Xiu: “???” Did he hear wrong?

Yan Jingze kissed him again: “Be obedient, you know?”

Hu Xiu didn’t speak. He suddenly felt that it would be interesting if Yan snatched his position as patriarch and locked him up, wait, stop! It’s more important to be Yan’s mate!

Hu Xiu nodded.

Yan Jingze then breathed a sigh of relief and said: “You are mine, you know? Keep a distance from others in the future!”

Hu Xiu nodded again, and at the same time felt that the words sounded familiar…Oh, he said the same thing to Yan before.

“It’s good that you understand…Hurry up and prepare, the ceremony will be held soon!” Yan Jingze said.

Yan Jingze suddenly understood why Hu Xiu had to talk to him like this before…It’s really domineering to say so.

Then, Hu Xiu really turned around and went to prepare.

Yan Jingze hurriedly followed.

He was a little afraid that Hu Xiu would be unhappy, ahem!

Hu Xiu wasn’t unhappy, he was actually quite happy.

He was wrong before! Yan is willing to be his partner!

In fact, if he really said he was unhappy these days, that wouldn’t be right too, after all, Yan was with him all the time, and he could still eat and drink to his fill.

However, when he thought about things, he would become depressed.

But now, he doesn’t feel depressed anymore!

Hu Xiu happily got into the tree hole to get the gift that he was going to give to Yan.

Yan Jingze followed in: “Xiu…”

Yan Jingze didn’t know what to say.

Because Hu Xiu is dancing in the tree hole.

The kind where he twists his body while jumping.

The original owner also has this kind of dance in his memory because he has seen people in the tribe dance.

But he never jumped over himself, and he never saw Hu Xiu join in either.

While the others were twisting and turning, Hu Xiu was sitting upright.

But now…Hu Xiu jumped and twisted, twisting and twisting, he even tore off the animal skin on his body.

Yan Jingze: “…” Terrifying!

This Hu Xiu…makes him really want to do something.

Hu Xiu also saw Yan.

He was so happy that he didn’t stop dancing. Instead, he came to Yan and twisted around him.

After twisting, he said: “Hurry up and prepare! Do you have a gift? I have prepared an extra one for you, do you want it?”

The gifts that partners give to each other are usually animal bones and teeth.

Strange to say, he never had the idea of finding a partner before, but he has always saved animal teeth, so he has saved a lot!

He made a beautiful necklace out of those teeth and gave it to Yan!

In addition…Considering that Yan should not be able to give any gifts, he made an extra bunch and prepared to let Yan give it to him.

“I have.” Yan Jingze took a deep breath, “You dance really well…show me again next time.”

“Okay!” Hu Xiu didn’t hesitate.

Knowing that Yan is willing to be his mate…he now feels strength and joy in his body.

Yan likes to watch him dance? He will dance every day from now on!

By the way, Yan seems to like to drill tree holes with him…He will continue to work hard!

Be sure to satisfy Yan!

Hu Xiu put on a new animal skin skirt and happily climbed out of the tree hole.

Yan Jingze didn’t dare to follow him out.

Hu Xiu was just dancing, so he didn’t have any physical reaction at all.

But he’s different…he needs to rest for a while before he dares to go out.

Otherwise, you might be surrounded by people!

In addition, the clothes he made for Hu Xiu had to be taken out.

When Hu Xiu came outside again, he found that many people were watching him.

In addition to wearing animal skin skirts, these people also wore animal skins on their bodies.

This animal skin is actually dinosaur skin, which is generally warm and windproof.

“What are you all doing here?” Hu Xiu asked with a frown.

No matter how he danced in the tree hole, when he was outside…he was still very dignified.

“Patriarch, did you get threatened by Yan?” Someone was worried.

Another said: “Patriarch, I heard that Yan forced you to be his mate?”

The people in the tribe looked at Hu Xiu with concern.

Many of them heard what Yan Jingze said before, so they were a little worried about Hu Xiu.

Although Yan is very powerful, they still pay more attention to Hu Xiu in comparison.

Hu Xiu said: “I was not threatened…Cough cough, Yan is really powerful, right? Do you also think he is very strong? He can do everything…”

He hasn’t boasted about Yan for a long time!

He was afraid that after he boasted too much, people in the tribe would all fall in love with Yan and rob him.

But now that Yan wants to be his mate…then he can continue to boast.

People who were worried about Hu Xiu: “…” They really had a brain problem to even think that Hu Xiu was forced.

It was obviously Hu Xiu who drilled Yan’s tree hole back then!

If there was someone who would threaten, it would obviously be Hu Xiu.

“Patriarch, let’s clean up the venue!”

“Patriarch, I’m going to light the fire!”

“Patriarch, I’m going to watch the children!”

…

Hu Xiu’s audience ran away in an instant.

Seeing them running away, Hu Xiu happily recalled how he got along with Yan.

Yan used to like Hu Chun, but now he is willing to be his mate, so he must be in love with him!

As for why he likes him…

Because of his enthusiasm?

He took the initiative to drill into Yan’s tree hole, he seduced Yan…so Yan must have liked it!

It’s definitely because he is very passionate that Yan falls in love with him!

Thinking about it, which man in the tribe doesn’t like to drill tree holes!

Some people would rather starve themselves and give meat to others, so that they can drill tree holes with others instead!

This is really a very comfortable thing, he likes it very much too.

Hu Xiu was in a good mood and held a mate ceremony with Yan Jingze, and that night, he showed Yan Jingze the dance.

The tree hole is so small, jumping and jumping…cough cough!

Yan Jingze spent a very beautiful wedding night in the bridal chamber.

It’s just…he, who used to be pure-hearted and ascetic, has completely changed now.

It’s only been so long but he changed so much…So he is essentially this kind of person, right?!

This world is really…different.

His taste…is also weird.

He actually fell in love with someone who crawled into his bed at night!

Also, why does he feel that…compared to liking him, Hu Xiu is more greedy for his body?

Hmm…no time to think about this.

Hu Xiu didn’t sleep yet, he was still moving his hands and feet again.

As for him…he can no longer be pure-hearted.

But it feels…good, actually.

He has fulfilled the original owner’s wish and found a partner who is more powerful than Hu Chun, and he can leave after repairing the world logically.

But now…he felt that he could live in this world for a few more decades and enjoy it.

T/N:

{He suddenly felt that it would be interesting if Yan snatched his position as patriarch and locked him up}

AXiu, care to tell me more. What did you have in mind? (⁄ ⁄>⁄ ▽ ⁄
