Two snowmen were built outside Lin Xi and Wu Chen’s cave.

The snowmen stood on the left and right of the cave entrance, like two door gods.

The weather was getting colder and colder, and the ice on the river had already frozen very thick. The snow had not stopped falling for the past two days, and it had been falling intermittently. Lin Xi and Wu Chen used clean snow outside to melt it and boil it for drinking.

But this does save the effort of going to the river and breaking ice to get water.

Lin Xi estimated that the temperature outside was about minus fifteen or sixteen degrees Celsius.

But the trend of colder weather continues, and I don’t know what the final temperature will be.

At this moment, she was lying by the window, looking at the snow outside that was dazzlingly reflective in the sunlight, and she let out a long breath.

The warm breath quickly turns white when it meets the cold air and slowly floats in the air.

Although the cave is warm and comfortable now, staying in it every day really makes people feel a little stuffy.

The tribe has been very quiet recently. In the heavy snow, the orcs rarely go out unless it is necessary. Only occasionally, a group of orcs go out of the tribe, and then they come back with some firewood to keep warm.

As the weather gets colder, the dangers in the forest will increase, and most of these dangers come from isolated animals outside that are lacking in clothing and food.

Therefore, in order to avoid being attacked by lone beasts, even male beasts will choose to go out in groups.

But Lin Xi and Wu Chen didn't need to go out for the time being. They had prepared a lot of firewood in advance. At least what they had now was enough for them to burn for more than a month.

But recently something happened that added a little excitement to their lives.

That is, a new cave was dug out on the left side of their cave, about thirty meters away.

The owner of the cave is Bai Nu.

Bai Nu and Xueying planned to live together next spring, so he had to prepare a place for himself and Xueying first.

The shed that Bai Nu built in the center of the tribe was actually the "office" of each leader.

Bai Nu had just reached adulthood when he took over as leader.

All the orcs in the tribe, whether male or female, had to move out of their parents' homes and live on their own once they reached adulthood, so in order to save trouble, Bai Nu simply lived in the shed.

But now that he is going to be a couple with Xueying, he has to prepare a place to live quickly.

The reason why they chose to build their cave next to Lin Xi and Wu Chen's cave was because it was very close to Xue Tian's mother's shed, and Xue Ying liked this location very much.

Another reason is that the area to the north of the tribe is where the orcs live. There are many orcs living there, and there is really no large vacant space to dig out the cave that Bai Nu wanted!

Today is the fifth day that Bai Nu has been digging the cave. Now the entrance has been dug out, and the space inside the cave has also been dug out to about ten square meters.

Since he was the only one digging, the speed was very slow.

However, when Lin Xi went out for some fresh air every day, he would often see Xueying running up the hillside, going in and out of the cave over there to help transport the excavated stones.

Orcs are very strong. Even though Xueying is a female rabbit, she is still much stronger than humans.

Lin Xi was lying by the window, watching. From afar, he saw a small figure wrapped in animal skins slowly walking up from the hillside.

It was Xueying.

She was about to raise her hand to say hello when her body was suddenly pulled away from the window, and then the thick window panel was lowered.

The light in front of my eyes dimmed instantly.

"Don't lean on the window like this, you'll get so cold that you'll get a fever."

Wu Chen placed his hand on Lin Xi's forehead, which was chilled by the air outside, and his tone was full of disapproval of Lin Xi's action.

Lin Xi said "Oh" embarrassedly, and quickly got up and sat in front of the fireplace to warm himself up.

Physical health is obviously something she should pay attention to, and she does take it seriously, but she also can't help but always seek some temporary pleasure.

In the end, Wu Chen always has to remind me.

I sat in front of the fireplace for a while, feeling warm all over, and I felt a little sleepy.

Lin Xi simply pulled Wu Chen back to the bedroom to take a nap.

A short nap during the day is particularly relaxing.

Lin Xi slept until the evening. When she woke up, Wu Chen was no longer on the kang.

The temperature beneath her body and the firelight in the room told her that Wu Chen had already lit up the kang.

There was a faint aroma of meat wafting in the air, and my stomach, which had slept for the entire afternoon and hadn't eaten anything, began to growl.

Lin Xi had just woken up and was feeling a little lazy. She rolled over and over on the kang until Wu Chen came over to call her for dinner: "Xixi, dinner is ready. Do you want to eat now?"

"Ah."

Lin Xi responded but still didn't move until Wu Chen came over to pull her, then she sat up with his force.

She almost said to Wu Chen: Let’s make a kang table and eat on the kang from now on.

Fortunately I held back!

Otherwise, she felt that with her current laziness, she would probably turn into a pig that ate and slept, and then ate!

Wu Chen’s cooking skills have now reached a high level!

Lin Xi even felt that what Wu Chen made was actually better than what she made!

Perhaps because of the fast stir-frying speed, the dishes cooked by Wu Chen always have the smell of fireworks. And usually when Lin Xi makes dishes with the smell of fireworks, these dishes are mostly burnt!

Tonight Wu Chen made a dish of fried red grass with bacon, a small pot of boiled black worm fruit, and a whole curly-haired beast stewed with sour fruits.

He also washed some bobo vegetables for Lin Xi to eat.

Now black worm fruit and purple skin fruit are Linxi’s staple food, and one of these two must be included in every meal.

She took a bite of the black worm fruit first, and then took a bite of the vegetable.

The taste of bacon is completely different from that of fresh meat. Every bite has a unique fragrance. The red grass fried together has been fried until soft, and every thin leaf is full of soup. One bite, your mouth is full of oily fragrance!

Lin Xi was very satisfied with the meal!

"Wu Chen, this fried bacon is delicious! Red grass is delicious too!"

She couldn't help but give Wu Chen a thumbs up while eating.

Wu Chen already knew what the thumbs up meant. Seeing Lin Xi's actions, his thick black tail wagged happily: "Then I will make it for Xixi often in the future!"

Lin Xi nodded in satisfaction: "Well, everything Wu Chen makes is delicious, I like it all!"

The meal was finished quickly.

After cleaning up the dishes, Lin Xi went out to the toilet accompanied by Wu Chen.

It was already dark outside, and the two of them walked back slowly with torches in hand. When they reached the entrance of the cave, Lin Xi looked up and saw a faint glow of fire in the newly dug cave not far away.

She couldn't help but raise her eyebrows in surprise and looked at Wu Chen: "Leader Bai Nu hasn't returned yet?"

"It should be soon."

Wu Chen had a normal expression on his face. He looked over there, then lowered his head and pulled Lin Xi back into the cave:

"Leader Bai Nu is very anxious. Once the cave is dug, he and Xue Ying can move in directly!"
