Can I be your partner?

After the Water Tribe and the Wushan Tribe joined the Wood Tribe, Shen Nong had been thinking about how to arrange the orc warriors of the hunting teams in these two tribes.

The orcs in the hunting team are the strongest orc warriors in the tribe. Usually, they are responsible for hunting to provide enough meat for the tribe members so as to prevent them from starving to death.

But the Wood Tribe is not short of meat nowadays, and they even have more meat than they can eat, so they have to trade it. Therefore, it would be a waste for so many orc warriors to just hunt.

Then Shen Nong put the plan he had always wanted to implement on the agenda. He merged the hunting teams of the Wood Tribe, the Water Tribe, and the Wushan Tribe into a new team - the Military Guard.

This will not only facilitate unified management, but also maximize the power of these orcs.

They will become the strongest blade of the Wood Tribe.

Hu Xiao and Mao Yun were selected as the captain and two deputy captains of the military guard respectively. The three of them were responsible for the training and management of all matters related to the military guard.

Shen Nong’s requirements for the military guards were not low. Since they were doing it, they had to perform well.

He referred to the militarized management and high-intensity training content of the interstellar army and formulated management and training suitable for the orcs. Since the physique and genes of the orcs are much stronger than those of the interstellar people, Shen Nong increased the difficulty of strength training and endurance training based on the orcs' physical tolerance.

The various firearms training of the interstellar army has also been transformed into training in beast combat and human combat.

The military guards were surrounded by mountains on three sides and were located at the edge of the tribe. It was a long way to go back to the tribe. Since Hu Xiao and Mao Yun came to the military guards, they had never returned to their cabins to sleep, and slept directly in the wooden cabins of the military guards.

The distance was simply too far, and the military guards had a lot of training, which started very early and ended very late every day. They simply didn't want to run back and forth across the entire tribe.

But Ze is the exception among the three.

The sun had completely set and the sky was already dark. Hu Xiao, holding a bowl of pork rib soup in his hand, pointed at Ze's departing back, shook his head and whispered to Mao Yun, "Ze is like a cub that has not been weaned. He can't stand not seeing the priest for a day."

Every time Hu Xiao saw Ze crossing the entire tribe just to meet the priest, he would shake his head and say this.

Mao Yun never responded, she pretended not to hear and walked right past Hu Xiao. Mao Yun felt that maybe Hu Xiao was the only one in the tribe who couldn't tell that Ze and the priest were a couple.

Before joining the military guards, Ze never left the priest's side, always taking care of him and always putting him first. Moreover, Ze had always lived in a cave with the priest. During the spring mating season, Ze had never left the priest's cave to live somewhere else. Not to mention that in the spring, if other orcs looked at the priest for a second, Ze would be very unhappy. The orcs' possessiveness for their partners was fully displayed in Ze.

Mao Yun didn’t understand if Hu Xiao’s eyes and head were just decorations. How could he not notice such an obvious thing?

..

The summer nights in the Beast World were not so hot, and there was even a breeze outside the cave. Shen Nong listened to the rustling sound of leaves blown by the wind, holding a pillow made of ball fur in his arms, leaning against the head of the bed, feeling a little drowsy.

Tuanzi is getting bigger and bigger. He is so big that he can no longer fit into Shennong's cave, so he sleeps with Dahei.

At first, Shen Nong was afraid that he would not be able to sleep without Tuanzi, so he made a big pillow with Tuanzi's fur to replace Tuanzi. After two days of getting used to the Tuanzi fur pillow, Shen Nong was able to fall asleep successfully with the pillow, and this pillow completely replaced Tuanzi.

The wooden door of the cave was opened and then gently closed.

Shen Nong's drowsy head became clear and alert after a while, he let down his guard, slid down lazily, and fell asleep on the bed.

"priest."

A magnetic and charming voice sounded in his ears. Shen Nong's cheeks first felt a fleeting coolness, and then the humid heat that was enough to raise the temperature around them.

In the dark cave, Shen Nong couldn't see Ze's face clearly, and his sleepiness made him unable to open his eyes to recognize it carefully. Shen Nong was extremely sleepy, but he still wanted to give his lover a goodnight kiss. He raised his hands to hug Ze's neck and kissed Ze's lips according to his memory, but he didn't know where he kissed, and it was hard.

Shen Nong was too lazy to think about it, and fell asleep right after kissing him. Ze looked at the priest's sleeping face, touched his nose, and laughed softly.

After lying down, keep a certain distance from Shen Nong.

He remembered that the priest felt hot, so when summer came, he no longer transformed into a beast when sleeping at night, nor did he hug the priest to sleep, for fear that the priest would feel uncomfortable.

But before falling asleep, he held the priest's hand and fell asleep with a smile on his face.

Shen Nong was awakened by the chirping of birds. He sat up sleepily. The seat next to him was empty. Shen Nong touched it out of habit, but still could not feel any residual warmth.

Since the beginning of summer, he has been busy every day, settling the salt orcs and cannibals, arranging many matters concerning the iron mines and the seaside, and building a market.

I wish I had three heads and six arms.

Ze was also very busy and rarely seen. The only way for the two of them to see each other was at night before bed.

Shen Nong sighed lightly. Fortunately, Shen Yi was in charge of the iron mine, and Shen Er was also sent to the seaside, which made him feel a lot more relaxed.

Now the iron mine is back on track, and various civilian iron products are emerging under Shen Yi's supervision.

A separate communication window can be established between the bionic warriors and their masters on the system platform. A few days ago, Shen Yi said that next time the orcs from the Yu Tribe come to the Mu Tribe to get goods, he would ask them to help deliver a few large iron pots.

Shen Nong is still looking forward to cooking in an iron pan. At that time, the food preparation team will build a few large stoves according to the size of the iron pans. This way, they can cook a lot of meat at a time, which can save a lot of time.

Walking out of the cave, Shen Nong went to the place where he usually washed and took off the lid of the wooden barrel, and hot steam hit his face.

He stared at the half-filled bucket of boiled water, thinking that it seemed like he hadn't seen Ze in the daytime for a long time.

Ze was busy in the military guard corps and came back very late every day. By the time he came back, he was already very sleepy and could fall asleep right next to him. He didn't even have time to take a good look at Ze.

But if Ze didn't come back, he wouldn't be able to sleep all night. Shen Nong laughed at his own strange habits, thinking that he would go to the military guards to see Ze after the market was almost completed.

After washing up, Shen Nong bought a bun from the system using an infrastructure point, and then went directly to the market.

The market was not built in the Mu tribe, but in an area between the Yan tribe and the Mu tribe. The construction of the market is now in the final stages, and the cement stalls and cement floor have been completely dry in three to five days. Now all that is left is to put up the roof for the stalls to protect them from wind and rain.

In order to make the cement dry faster, the top was not done.

The roof of the shed was not covered with mud tiles, but with dried straw. The wind and rain in the summer of the Beast World were very strong. If it was covered with mud tiles, the tiles that had been made with great effort would be broken into pieces overnight when there was wind and rain.

If you use straw, you won’t feel bad even if the roof is blown off.

It would actually take several months for the sedge to grow, so Shen Nong used his supernatural powers to stimulate its growth in order to avoid any delay. After all, the sedge was not meant to be eaten, so its bad taste would not affect its use.

It rains a lot in summer, so Shen Nong taught the tribesmen how to weave straw raincoats to make it easier to travel. All the remaining straw was woven into straw raincoats, and bamboo strips were used to weave matching hats.

After the roof was covered with straw, the construction of the market was finally completed, waiting for the tribes to come and trade.

Shen Nong thought about the choice in his mind, but he felt it was not worth it to run all the way just to see someone, so he went to the medical team.

When they came out again, all the orcs in the medical team followed Shen Nong and went to the military guard with him.

When the group arrived at the military guard, Ze, Hu Xiao and Mao Yun were already waiting at the door.

The orcs here are of a high level, and they have long been able to sense that quite a few of them are approaching the military guards.

Hu Xiao climbed up the observation tower made of a giant tree. No one could see clearly, but he recognized the strangely dressed priest in the middle. He turned around and shouted, "Stop training, the priest is here!"

Shen Nong was wearing the same shorts and short-sleeved shirt he wore when he first came here. He was the only one in the entire beast world who wore this. No wonder Hu Xiao recognized him at a glance.

When Ze heard that the priest was coming, he never took his eyes away from the door.

Hu Xiao shook his head again when he saw this.

"Why are you all out? How was the training going?" Shen Nong looked at the three of them with a smile, and finally stopped his gaze on Ze, his smile becoming even wider.

Hu Xiao had a loud voice and said directly: "I can't tell, priest, just look at it."

Then he took a step forward, blocking Shen Nong and Ze, forcibly cutting off their line of sight, waved at Shen Nong, and asked curiously: "Priest, what are you looking at? What's so beautiful?"

Hu Xiao said as he followed Shen Nong's line of sight. That direction could only be Ze or the lookout tower.

Shen Nong realized that his gaze was too exposed, so he retracted it. Then he heard Hu Xiao say happily: "Priest, you like the observation tower too. I like it too. You can see far away when you climb up. How did you come up with this thing, Priest?"

Mao Yun couldn't bear to listen any longer, so he stepped forward and asked, "Priest, what mission do the orcs from the medical team have in the military guard?"

Shen Nong nodded, "We want them to teach the military guards how to treat wounds when they are injured, and to learn some herbs that can stop bleeding."

"Priest, leave this to me and Hu Xiao. We can do it well."

Mao Yun spoke seriously and solemnly. She omitted the word "ze" on purpose. Shen Nong knew that it couldn't be because she was ostracizing her, or he realized her real intention.

This made Shen Nong a little surprised. Is it so obvious?

However, Shen Nong did not refuse, but asked Tu Dong to take the orcs from the medical team to follow Mao Yun and Hu Xiao.

Before leaving, Hu Xiao glanced at Ze, as if he wanted to say something but hesitated. Before he could open his mouth, Mao Yun pulled him away.

"Maoyun, why are you pulling me?"

Mao Yun ignored him.

Hu Xiao leaned close to Mao Yun's ear and whispered, "Why don't you let Ze come with you? Ze can't leave the priest. We are all orcs from the same tribe. We need to help Ze correct this problem. Otherwise, when Ze finds a partner in the future, will the three of us still be able to live in one cave?"

Hu Xiao was stunned for a moment, then said: "Maybe if Ze finds a partner, he won't want to stick to the priest anymore. Mao Yun, you don't have a partner, you can..."

Hu Xiao's words became more and more outrageous, and Mao Yun couldn't help but interrupt him and said, "Shut up!"

The angry breath of the high-level orcs made the low-level orcs in the medical team tremble uncontrollably. Mao Yun glanced at Tu Dong who was standing beside her and trembling slightly, restrained her breath, and decided not to pay attention to Hu Xiao anymore.

Shen Nong couldn't hear what Hu Xiao said as he walked away, but Ze could still hear it clearly.

He ignored everything else Hu Xiao said and stared solemnly at the priest standing in front of him.

companion.

Would the priest be willing to be his partner?

Shen Nong didn't know what Ze was thinking. He followed his heart and carefully described Ze's handsome face, deep eyes, and high nose bridge.. A sentence suddenly popped up in Shen Nong's mind, "I have kissed all these places."

Because of this sudden thought, Shen Nong's heart beat faster. He was shocked to realize that it was summer now, and Ze would not be affected by the estrus period. He could verify whether Ze had feelings for him.

Shen Nong was also a complete blank when it came to relationships. He didn't know how to be roundabout, nor did he know how to be ambiguous and seductive. He wanted to verify it in his mind, but he didn't have any good method.

Finally, she followed her heart, walked to Ze step by step, and asked with a smile: "Do you want to kiss?"

Shen Nong, who should have been in absolute control, lost control after saying this. All his thoughts could only be used on how to deal with Ze's extremely beastly and aggressive kiss, hoping that he would not suffocate to death from the kiss.

Shen Nong's chin was held tightly, his head was dizzy, and the only thing in his mind was "I regret it."

He shouldn't have asked.

Finally, Shen Nong couldn't stand it anymore, and bit Ze's lips with his teeth, and the smell of blood spread between his lips and teeth. This pain was nothing to Ze, he didn't even feel it. But after smelling the blood, he thought Shen Nong was injured, and hurriedly held his face to check back and forth, very nervous.

Shen Nong's face was held up, and he could only look up. The terrible height difference made his neck a little sore. Shen Nong frowned and said, "You were bitten by me, why are you looking at me?"

Ze finally reacted, but by then the wound on his lip had healed, and only a trace of blood on his lip proved that he had been injured there.

Ze casually wiped the blood off his lips and looked at the priest with burning eyes. The words in his heart were about to come out, and he couldn't wait to ask the priest if he was willing to be his partner.

Shen Nong was terrified by Ze's gaze. He thought this guy wanted to kiss her again. He was so scared that he turned his face away and changed the subject. "How's your training recently?"

The words that Ze wanted to blurt out before were interrupted by Shen Nong, and he was in a dilemma.

Shen Nong just asked casually, not really wanting to know how the training went. His mind was full of thoughts, he couldn't even handle a kiss, let alone anything else. He had felt it before, and he was sure he couldn't handle it.

Or just forget it, how can love be as important as life?

The desire to back out was beating loudly in Shen Nong's heart, and the sensitive orc keenly sensed the priest's intention to retreat.

A huge sense of crisis rose in Ze's heart, and he subconsciously grabbed Shen Nong's wrist tightly.

Shen Nong felt a pain in his wrist, and came to his senses. He looked at Ze in surprise, "What's wrong?"

Ze's eyes were full of the priest's appearance. When the other party frowned slightly, Ze immediately released the strength in his hands but did not let go.

Shen Nong felt that Ze's expression was more serious than he had ever seen it before, and he could not help but feel a chill in his heart. Then he heard Ze's low voice, with obvious trembling, "Priest, can I be your partner?"
