Lin Mu thought both Sasha and Phil were taken to some âideal appearanceâ re-education. As for Lais, he must have gone back to make clothes. Such a diligent guy, Lais has started to make winter clothes now. Lin Mu thought about why he didnât go to make clothes together with him(L). Lais is quite quiet when he is making clothes, so if he(LM) is going to be sitting in a daze anyway, why not go to Patrik instead? Other than that, he wondered what Patrik was discussing with Jason.
Lin Mu saw Jason coming out from the room, and he greeted Jason with a smile. Jason nodded blankly. Accustomed to Jasonâs behavior, Lin Mu went into his room and pulled the curtain down.
âPatrik, take out the glowing stones, the room is too dark.â
Patrik was sitting by the bed when he saw Lin Mu came in. Hearing what Lin Mu said, he stood up and took the glowing stones out of the bed cabinet. He talked to Lin Mu while putting the stones, âWhy did you come back so early? Not staying to play with the females?â
Lin Mu climbed onto the bed and laid comfortably on a pile of animal skins.
âLloyd and Locke have pulled them away, and Lais went to make clothes again. So I came back.â
After Patrik has placed the glowing stones on the wooden brackets by the wall, the room was illuminated in soft and bright lights. He saw Lin Mu lying lazily on the bed, but Lin Mu is still very likable no matter how he looked at him.
As Patrik came nearer, Lin Mu sat up with his chin raised up, and asked, âWhat are you talking about with Jason in the room? So sneaky.â
Patrik sat by the bed and rubbed Lin Muâs hair. âSneaky? How?â
Lin Mu avoided Patrikâs grabby claws and said, âDeliberately avoiding me, not letting me listen, isnât that sneaky? Say it, what were you talking about? Reveal a bit to me?â Lin Mu asked curiously with his head tilted.
Patrik put away the small animal skin bag that was used to store the glowing stones. âDiscussing with Jason what to do after the rainy season.â
âReally?â Lin Mu looked at him with suspicion, âIt shouldnât be that simple? If itâs so simple, why donât you let me listen in? Instead, you diverted me away this morning.â
âItâs that simple. I was about to discuss with you what we have to do after the rainy season. Mu Mu, you think, what should we do after the rainy season? How should we collect food?â
Hearing Patrik talking about serious matters, Lin Mu sat up and crossed his legs, âHmm, what should we do?â
Patrik saw Lin Mu thinking about something else and stopped asking about Jason. He didnât want to lie to Lin Mu but also wanted to make things better for both of them. Looking at Lin Mu seriously taking care of the tribe and him as well, and thinking about how to make the tribe better, Patrikâs heart softened into a puddle. He felt that this was the grace given by the beast god.
Lin Mu thought about what to do after the rainy season ends. Collecting food is the first task. After all, food is the most important thing. There is also the problem of keeping warm in winter.\nâPatrik, how long is the winter season?â
Patrik: âOver 150 days.â
âMore than 5 months ah. Then we have to prepare a lot of food.â
âYou donât have to worry about food. The beastman in our tribe are all hunting experts. Although there is fewer prey in winter, but rest assured, we can definitely live through winter safely. Moreover, we have a house now, which is much better than before. â
âI heard Misha talked about the winter season. You havenât been able to eat enough in winter before. Thatâs not enough.â
Patrik sighed, âAlthough there is a lot of food in autumn, it canât be preserved. Hunting in winter is not easy, so gathering food will be harder. However, I will not let you suffer, trust me.â
Lin Mu smiled softly, âI believe in you, but we can definitely have a comfortable winter this year. You have to believe me too.â
Patrik hugged the person in his arms, âI have always believed that Mu Mu is the most amazing person.â
Lin Mu chuckled, âIâm not that amazing. Iâm actually one of the most useless people back in my place. I stayed at home all day and donât contact people. Although I donât want to admit it, itâs actually a way of escape reality.â
âMu Mu is the most talented and useful person in my heart. And even if Mu Mu is useless, it doesnât matter, I can raise Mu Mu to be chubby and fair.â
âTsk, I donât want to be chubby, Iâm not a bun(baozi).â
Although Patrik doesnât know what a bun is, he still thinks that a chubby Lin Mu looks cute. âItâs better to be fat, you are too thin.â
âI think Iâm good enough. Back at my place, thin is beauty. If Iâm thin, Iâm handsome. If I get fatter, Iâm going to be called a pig.â
âIt is the responsibility of each beastman to raise their partner up strong and healthy.â
âStrong?â Lin Mu looked at him with a smile.
Patrik nodded, although Lin Muâs smile seemed a little wicked.
âThen, if I am bigger, will you let me âgongâ1Â you?â If so, Lin Mu felt that growing up strong is good.\nââGongâ me?â Patrik couldnât understand Lin Muâs words.
âIt means, during âthoseâ times, I will be on top, and you will lie down.â On the other hand, Patrikâs figure is outstanding.
Patrik understood it now. He looked at Lin Mu with suspicion, as if to say, âAre you sure you can?â
âWhat are you looking at? There is nothing wrong with weak gong and strong shou.â
Patrik nodded in agreement, âMu Mu, letâs duel.â
âDuel? Why do you want to duel with me?â Lin Mu was surprised.
Patrik: âBecause Mu Mu, you said that you are a male. When two males become partners, they will duel to decide who is the top. Therefore, if Mu Mu wants to âgongâ me, we will fight a battle for it.â
Lin Mu looked at the smile on Patrikâs face. Thatâs a smirk, absolutely a smirk. âHumph, I just canât win over you, whatâs there to be proud of?â
Patrik looked at Lin Mu acting stubbornly and bent down to kiss his forehead happily. âMu Mu, you canât transform into a beast, so itâs confirmed that you will never beat me. Donât think about it anymore.â He just wants Lin Mu to stop thinking to âgongâ him. Because his chances of winning in a duel with Lin Mu is not that great, as he is not willing to hurt Lin Mu.
âHowever, I encourage Mu Mu to become stronger,â Patrik added.
Lin Mu ground his teeth in hatred and tickled Patrik, âI said I couldnât beat you, and you get so proudâŚâ
Lin Mu kept tickling Patrik, âBeing prideful huh, Iâll tickle you to deathâŚâ
Patrik swiftly pressed Lin Mu under him. Then he returned the favor back to Lin Mu.
âHahahaâŚâ Lin Mu twisted and turned from the itchiness, âItchy, donât tickle me, ha ha haâŚâ
His loved one wriggling beneath him makes Patrik felt pressured.
Sensing that Patrikâs breathing becoming strange, and his skin burning hot, Lin Mu doesnât dare to move anymore. He looked at Patrik with sincere eyes, âPatrik, Iâm wrong, let me go.â
[S L I G H T L Y â N S F W â B U T â C E N S O R E D â A N Y W A Y]
\nSeeing Patrik transformed, Sasha and the rest of the females also asked their beastman to transform and fly2. Other beastman also transformed, eager to move around. Instantly, several giants can be seen flying over the valley at the same time.
Sitting on Patrik while they ascended into the sky, Lin Mu felt like he has gotten one step closer to the sun. âAfter so many days in the rainy season, I think that even my bones have become humid. It is really comfortable to bask in the sun now.â
He touched Patrikâs dark leathery, armor-like skin. âPatrik, your skin color is black and is easier to absorb light. Do you feel warm?â
âItâs hot but still comfortable.â
Lin Mu touched the scales under his hand. âItâs said that snakes are cold-blooded animals. But Patrik doesnât seem to be afraid of heat. Moreover, I donât think your temperature is low.â
Patrik stayed silent, he knows that Lin Mu is just muttering to himself.
âHaha, Lin Mu. Itâs comfortable to bask in the sun.â Sasha sat on Locke, and they came to fly beside Lin Mu.
âEn, it feels like I havenât come out for a long time. From the above, our valley still looked pretty.â Phil also came.
Lais: âHow about we go around and see?â
Everyone agreed with Laisâs words; they were all suffocated by that rainy season previously.
âLooking from this view, this mountain range is huge.â Lin Mu said while looking at the rolling hills. When they came here, all he could think of was just rushing to the valley as soon as possible3, and he did not look around carefully. What is the mountain? He learned it in elementary school that the mountain is a treasure trove of nature. When he thought of his next treasure hunt, Lin Mu felt quite excited.
âEn, there are animals in the mountains, so we donât have to worry about food.â Lais agreed.
Phil: âThe mountains are so big, I wonder if there are other tribes around.â
âThere was a tribe nearby, but the cave where they lived collapsed during the rainy season. So they moved away.â Lloyd explained to Phil. He once saw the tribe marching away in the rain.
âCollapsed?!â Sasha exclaimed in surprise, âItâs better to build a house like we did.â
Lin Mu also sighed, those people didnât have it easy. In fact, if he can, he really wants to teach others how to build a house as well. Not only because of his pity for them, but also because he feared their jealousy towards their unique home. But right now, it is too early to think about it.
Four people, and four beasts, flew in the air. Pleasant laughter could be heard from time to time.
