The toilet issue has come to an end. Although it is a bit far from the living cave, Li Mingsheng is still very happy to have a clean and convenient environment.

He planned to build a few more after the snow season ended and when spring came, otherwise the current two would be barely enough to maintain the site, and he was afraid that there would be a shortage of people in the future.

But now is not the time to think about this.

While the bricks and tiles were not yet fired and the people in the tribe were still hunting and gathering for the snow season, Li Mingsheng remembered the cotton mountain he had seen when he went out to look for salt.

"Let's go pick cotton!" Li Mingsheng took advantage of his free time. The cotton should have been ripe by now, so if he went now, he might be able to make a few quilts before the snow season comes.

"Cotton?" Yanli muttered in his heart. He had never heard of this flower.

"Let's go, take Xingxing and the others with us. I'll ask Wen Xiaoqing for a few more people." Li Mingsheng said as he pulled Yanli to get the backpack.

"Wenqing, come here."

"Chief, what do you want from me?" Wen Qing had just finished processing the exotic beast meat and hung it on the smoke to smoke it.

Seeing Li Mingsheng calling him, he casually wiped his hands with the animal skin and walked over.

"Is there anyone free in your team? Yanli and I are planning to go pick cotton, and we need a few helpers."

Only then did Wenqing notice the backpacks on Li Mingsheng and Yanli.

He quickly replied: "Yes, yes, I'll go get someone right away."

"Song, Tao, and Guo, the three of you should follow the leader today."

The three sub-orcs that Wen Qing called were all nimble and skillful, and they were not the type to be sneaky or cunning.

"Captain, we are here." The three sub-orcs who were called heard Wen Qing's voice and trotted over.

Li Mingsheng looked at the three sub-orcs in front of him, Song, who was slightly younger than Wenqing, and two other sub-orcs in their prime. They all seemed to be good at their jobs. He didn't say anything and let Wenqing make arrangements.

"The three of you take the backpacks and follow the leader." After Wen Qing gave the instructions, he saw Li Mingsheng leading the three sub-beasts away and then went back to his own business.

Although there are more than twenty people in charge of cooking, those who went out with Li Mingsheng today are among the best in the team. Without them today, the work will be even more difficult for Wenqing.

Song and his friends were still a little nervous about going out alone with their leader and Lord Yanli. They didn't dare to open their mouths along the way and walked quietly behind them. Fortunately, there was a familiar orc named Skinny Monkey in their team.

Song and the others looked at Shouhou and Li Mingsheng walking side by side and couldn't help but admire his courage.

If you ask Skinny Monkey, he could only give them a meaningful look. God knows how scared he was when he offended Li Mingsheng and the others. He didn't dare to look Li Mingsheng in the eye or talk to him.

Now we can get along so well, thanks to the leader's magnanimity.

"Chief, what are we here for today?" Although the skinny monkey was still a little uncomfortable, he still spoke when he saw the sub-orcs staring at him from behind.

Li Mingsheng didn't stop or turn to look at him, as if he was facing an old friend.

"Go pick cotton and make warm quilts."

Li Mingsheng's cheerful tone made Shouhou relax his shoulders, no longer as tense as when he first arrived.

He was a little slower, walking side by side with Song and the others, and said synchronously, "The leader said that we should pick flowers like cotton and make warm quilts."

The words of the skinny monkey puzzled Song and the others: "What kind of flower is cotton? Is it beautiful?"

The questions Tao asked were almost what the three sub-beastmen wanted to ask.

But the skinny monkey didn't understand, so he could only smile awkwardly: "I don't know, the leader didn't tell me."

After hearing this, Tao rolled her eyes at Shouhou, but Shouhou was not angry because he was also one of Tao's suitors.

"It's been a long time since I came out like this." Li Mingsheng listened to the four people playing and fighting behind him, feeling happy. Looking at Yanli beside him, he couldn't help but forget all the fatigue of the previous days.

Yanli's expression was also relaxed, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised. Li Mingsheng was stunned for a moment.

"Has anyone ever told you that you look particularly good when you smile?" As soon as Li Mingsheng said this, he choked on his own saliva.

"Hehe, what I mean is, you look good this way." Li Mingsheng made things worse.

Seeing the other person's annoyed look, the corners of his mouth did not fall again. Instead, he chuckled softly, his voice was a little hoarse, and it sounded very nice.

Li Mingsheng's ears couldn't help but turn red, but Yanli didn't seem to notice and even leaned close to his ear and said, "It's okay, I know what you mean, Brother Li, I understand!"

After saying that, he blew gently into Li Mingsheng's cochlea.

Li Mingsheng was stunned on the spot. He felt an electric current running from bottom to top, which not only numbed his body but also his heart. He felt as if he had been sublimated.

Shouhou and Tao saw that Li Mingsheng had stopped, but Lord Yanli was still following Xingxing and the other guardian beasts. For a moment, they didn't know whether they should go or stop.

Since they have been living together for a long time, the two strange beasts, Xingxing and Jinhou, are privately considered by the people in the tribe to be the guardian beasts of the tribe, otherwise how could they live together and protect the tribe together.

"Chief, are we there yet?" Seeing Tao and the others wavering, the skinny monkey had no choice but to ask.

"Ah! Oh. Cough, cough, cough..."

"Not there yet, keep going."

The skinny monkey's words woke Li Mingsheng up. Li Mingsheng looked at Yanli, who was already dozens of meters away from them, and felt ashamed for a moment. He was actually in a trance after being tricked by Yanli.

"Wait for me." Li Mingsheng raised his foot and quickly caught up with Yanli.

"Good of you, thank you Brother Li." He unceremoniously tickled Yanli's itchy spots, and only let go when Yanli was panting and begging for mercy.

The other person's face was red from laughing, with a bit of moisture in his eyes. He looked very easy to bully. Li Mingsheng became a little distracted again.

"Chief, what are they doing?" The four people behind them were watching Li Mingsheng and Yanli fighting. Although they didn't know why, they felt that they looked very agitated and were a little embarrassed.

They followed them a few meters behind them tacitly.

Fortunately, Li Mingsheng and Yanli knew they had things to do and didn't make too much trouble.

The road was actually not too far. Li Mingsheng estimated that it would take just over an hour.

"We're here." Looking at the mountain full of white cotton, some of which had even been blown to the ground by the wind, Li Mingsheng couldn't help but feel a little sorry that they arrived a little late, but there was still time.

"Isn't this a silk fruit? You can't eat it."

Yanli originally thought it was some kind of flower, but it turned out to be a silk fruit. He had encountered this thing several times before, but he couldn't eat it, and the orcs from other tribes would not pay attention to it.

"We don't need to use it to eat, we use it." Li Mingsheng raised his eyebrows.

"Use, you mean quilt." Yanli's eyes lit up. He had heard Li Mingsheng talk about the benefits of quilts, and he felt a little longing in his heart.
