Tamer: I built a home on the back of the Black Tortoise. - Chapter 23
Chapter 23: Moon Wolf.
When the night came, the rock tortoise stopped to rest.
“Bang bang bang!”
Mu Liang knocked on the door, “Mino, come out for dinner.”
“You eat first, I don’t have an appetite.” The young girl’s shy voice came from the room.
Mu Liang stood at the door and muttered in a loud voice, “A fourteen-year-old girl shouldn’t have reached the rebellious phase of youth, right?”
With the wooden door, one could imagine the sound insulation.
Swish!
The door to the room was instantly pulled open, Mino appeared in the doorway with red cheeks and glaring blue eyes.
She put her hands on her waist and said angrily, “I’m not rebellious.”
“Yes yes, no rebellion.” Mu Liang suddenly had the feeling of raising a daughter.
He smiled and flicked the girl’s forehead, and said gently, “Come over for dinner.”
“Ehhhhh??”
Mino suddenly widened her eyes and stared in shock at the completely changed hall.
At some point in the hall, there was a square table and four benches.
At this time, the steel pot was placed in the middle of the table, and the wooden bowls and chopsticks had been placed face to face.
“What are you doing? Hurry up and have dinner.” Mu Liang waved indifferently.
“You did all this in the afternoon?” Mino sat down blankly.
She stroked the table and bench and found it smooth.
“I made it when I was making a big bathtub.
Mu Liang poured broth for the girl and said indifferently, “I can’t just sit by the fire all the time and eat.”
“And a big bathtub?” Mino was so shocked that she almost bit her tongue.
“To make it easier to store water and take a bath, I made a large bathtub.”
Mu Liang pointed to the corner of the hall, there was a large bathtub that was half a person high.
With his current strength, handling wood was very easy.
In the past, Mu Liang had to cut wood bit by bit, but now, with a single strike, a large piece of wood could be blown away.
“How much water can this hold?” Mino couldn’t be bothered to eat and ran up to look at it.
“At least ten people of your size can fit in this.” Mu Liang took a sip of the broth.
Mino sighed, “But there’s no water to fill it.”
“Just wait until it rains.” Mu Liang was looking at it more openly.
If there was no water, go to the Blood Beard’s Base Camp to find water. If they could stay in the base camp, there must be a source of water.
“I don’t know when it will rain. It hasn’t rained for seventeen days.”
Mino sat back on the table, thinking of the stench on her body, she was not even in the mood to eat her favorite broth.
Mu Liang chewed on the roast meat and urged, “Hurry up and finish your dinner, I have something for you.”
“What is it?” Mino asked curiously.
“You’ll know after eating.” Mu Liang glanced at the bowl in the girl’s hand.
“I’ll finish it right away.” Mino had grilled meat in one hand and broth in the other.
In less than ten minutes, the young girl finished her dinner.
“I’m done eating.”
Mino licked the corner of her mouth, blinked her blue eyes, and twitched her rabbit ears.
The girl’s current appearance was like a little girl asking for candy from her father.
Mu Liang took out the drawing board from behind and handed over the painting called “Hometown”.
He warned: “Don’t touch the painting on the surface, it will smudge the charcoal powder on it.”
“Got it.” Mino took it curiously and turned to look at it.
At first glance, the girl’s blue eyes suddenly widened, and her small mouth was round.
The familiar scene in the drawing board instantly hit the girl’s heart.
“Too too…… beautiful.” Mino’s nose was slightly sore, and her vision became blurry.
“Hometown, this is the name of the painting.” Mu Liang got up and touched the girl’s head, leaving space for her.
He stepped out of the hall and came to the courtyard, and looked at the pitch-black wilderness, he really couldn’t see his fingers.
At this moment, Mu Liang thought a lot.
He thought that he had traveled to another world and was lucky enough to meet a kind girl so that he would not be ransacked and thrown into the wilderness.
Then he thought that the girl was willing to believe him, who had been with him for six or seven days and still wanted to go with him.
What Mu Liang could do was to try to keep the beautiful memories of the girl as much as possible.
“Awwww~oooo~~”
Suddenly, there was a loud howl of wolves in the calm night.
It also interrupted Mu Liang’s thoughts.
He followed the voice and saw a series of white dots flickering in the distance, like white dots swiping on a black screen.
“Mu Liang, come in quickly.” Mino’s anxious hoarse voice came.
The girl stood at the door and waved at him.
“What’s wrong?” Mu Liang stepped forward in doubt and looked at the girl’s red eyes.
“Come in quickly, it’s too dangerous outside.” Mino hurriedly dragged Mu Liang into the house and closed the door with her backhand.
She hurriedly ran to the fire pit and took away some firewood. There was a little spark left in the fire.
“Hoohoo~~” Mino finished this and let out a light sigh.
“Is it because of the wolf howl just now?” Mu Liang asked gently.
“Fierce beast Moon Wolf is a very dangerous group of beasts.” Mino sniffed.
She had just been moved to tears by a painting, and now she was frightened by the moon wolf.
“Did you forget? We also have fierce beasts.” Mu Liang stomped his feet with a smile.
“Ow~” the rock tortoise gave a warning roar.
“Awwww~ooo~~”
In the night, the moon wolf responded with the wolf howling.
“Awwww~ooo~~”
Then, the howling of the wolf was leaving, and the moon wolf had already left the area.
“They’re gone.” Mino blinked in astonishment, and her soft bunny ears stood up slowly.
“It’s gone.” Mu Liang communicated with the tamed beasts a lot, and now he probably understood the meaning of the beast’s roar.
The translation of the rock-armored tortoise in human language was: Get out of my territory.
Moon wolf did not want to be outdone. He replied ruthlessly: Let’s wait and see.
“It’s good to be gone.” Mino rewarmed the fire.
She hesitated for a second and felt like she had forgotten something.
“By the way, what about my painting?” Mino’s pretty face turned pale, she looked around eagerly, and she was relieved after seeing the painting on the table.
Just now, the girl was worried about Mu Liang’s safety, so she went to him as soon as she put the painting down.
Mino asked Mu Liang for help, “What is the best way to keep the painting?”
“Just hang it on the wall of your room.” Mu Liang said gently.
“Hang it for me.” Mino held the painting in both hands and felt a little helpless.
“Okay, I’ll help you.” Mu Liang looked at the girl’s precious painting.
Inexplicably, a bit pleasant.
