Chapter 92
Where else could they stay if not in the mountain cave?
Lu Yu thought he didn’t want to live with the people of the valley. Tai Lie was very vigilant. He slept in a defensive position where he could attack at any time during the night. Although he seemed to be asleep, any slight movement could wake him up.
Lu Yu knew this. It was okay to be with the Matai people, but the situation would be not so good with others around. For the past two days, when he was in a cave with the people of the Blackwater Tribe, he had hardly slept.
Lu Yu didn’t want him to be unable to sleep. “Are there any caves nearby that are relatively close? We can’t ignore the people of the valley over there.” Although there were some men, their combat power was really weak.
Tai Lie’s tone was very light, with a hint of inexplicable meaning. “No, Shan Pu and the others are going to the caves with the people of the valley. Only we are not going.”
Lu Yu was confused. “Isn’t that very dangerous?”
Tai Lie’s lips curled slightly. “It’s probably not dangerous.”
Hearing him say this, Lu Yu stopped asking more. He knew that Tai Lie would not put him in a dangerous place. It was safer with Tai Lie than anywhere else.
Lu Yu thought naively.
But he was slapped in the face during the night.
He truly realized what it meant that the safest place is the most dangerous place.
In the evening, Lu Yu prepared a feast and invited the people of the valley to have dinner together, while also telling them about the plan to stay out at night.
Lu Yu had never cooked for hundreds of people at the same time, which was quite challenging, but he was not afraid.
It was needless to say about the Matai people. Just roasting meat would be enough. On the side of the valley, they steamed plenty of rice, cooked several pots of creamy white fish soup, stir-fried some vegetables and meat, which was quite abundant.
In fact, Lu Yu didn’t have to do much.
Several Matai women and women from the valley, whom he had taught before, came to help him, handling the meat, seasoning it, hanging it on the grill, washing the rice, and steaming it.
As for the fish and other things, they handled it, and Lu Yu just had to give some instructions.
Of course, Lu Yu personally cooked the final stir-fry.
On the specially opened spacious ground, there was laughter and joy everywhere.
The children ran around with the small wooden and bone toys Lu Yu bought for them, laughing and playing.
Shan Pu and Xia Hua vividly described their experiences to the people of the valley, omitting the unpleasant parts and leaving only how amazing the food Lu Yu made was and how bravely the Matai people won the tribal battle.
The people of the valley were amazed and stared at the Matai warriors, making everyone a little embarrassed.
After Lu Yu finished stir-frying a pot of vegetables, wiped his hands, and smiled as he watched the scene.
He was delighted to see everyone getting along peacefully, like a family, and the people of the valley admiring the Matai people anew. He was pleased to see it.
“Okay, dinner’s ready!” Lu Yu, called out.
Shan Pu and Xia Hua were both food lovers. As soon as they heard this, they stopped immediately, and everyone licked their lips.
However, they were soon attracted by something else.
It was all because the food made by the deputy Chief was really, really delicious!
Everyone was too busy swallowing saliva to speak.
Lu Yu smiled, “This time, we also brought back a lot of food and seeds. In the future, everyone will eat better and better.” Especially, he saw the seeds of soybeans and wheat among the supplies he won back. Later, when he went to get some growth potions, everyone’s diet level and variety would greatly improve.
Everyone cheered.
They ate until the sun went down, leaving only the last rays of sunlight.
After packing up, everyone prepared to go to the nearby cave.
This cave was behind the valley, just over a low hill. It wasn’t too far away, conveniently within the range marked by Lu Yu. Climbing to the top of the hill, he could still see what was happening below.
The cave was relatively deep but not very spacious. The people of the valley and the children slept inside, while the adult Matai people just made do at the entrance of the cave. They assigned people to guard the night.
After settling down, Tai Lie led Lu Yu out of the cave.
“King, Witch, where are you going?” asked the Matai person standing on a boulder with a spear in his hand, guarding the night.
Tai Lie calmly said, “Somewhere, we won’t be back tonight.”
The Matai person was dumbfounded, “Ah? Should someone follow you, I—”
“No need.” Tai Lie interrupted him decisively, then paused and said, “The small mountain on the left. If anything happens, shout there.”
“I got it!” The Matai person immediately responded.
Then, he watched their King and their witch walk away.
The two walked on the barren land covered with wild flowers and grass under the starlight.
Lu Yu still didn’t understand what Tai Lie was going to do.
He gently pulled Tai Lie’s hand, “Where are we going exactly?”
Tai Lie turned around. His black eyes glanced at him, then turned back and said in a muffled voice, “You’ll know when we get there.”
After walking for a while, seeing the gradually familiar scene, Lu Yu suddenly realized and smiled, “How did you know I wanted to take a bath?”
At this moment, they were standing by the small pond that Lu Yu had discovered before.
This small pond had always been Lu Yu’s private bathroom. The water flowed down from the mountain, clean and clear. In this hot weather, taking a bath here and quietly enjoying the stars was the most beautiful enjoyment.
Lu Yu had invited Tai Lie to take a bath before, but he hadn’t come later…
Wait a minute!
Lu Yu’s memory go back for a while. Tai Lie didn’t not come. After the two confirmed their relationship, he even invited him to take a bath. At that time, he refused because…
Lu Yu swallowed and his face turned slightly red.
Tai Lie, he meant that, right, in this place…
Being held by Tai Lie’s hand, Lu Yu involuntarily shrank back a bit.
Tai Lie tightened his grip on his hand, not letting him escape, and frowned slightly, “You promised.”
The usually dignified man’s tone unexpectedly carried a hint of faint grievance.
He promised, he promised… yes, he seemed to have promised when he was found on the Green Forest land. Actually, even if he hadn’t said it beforehand, he wasn’t going to avoid it anymore.
He had become much stronger during this time, and in the water… he should be able to bear it better…
Lu Yu comforted himself for a moment, turned his head, and nodded slightly imperceptibly.
Tai Lie’s black eyes lit up suddenly. He let go of Lu Yu’s hand, took off his shirt, wrapped his long arms around him, and carried Lu Yu with one hand, walking towards the pond.
With a turn of his gaze, Lu Yu found himself already in the water, pressed against a boulder.
The man pounced on him like a hungry tiger.
Lu Yu was startled, pushed the big head buried in his neck, and said, “Wait! Let’s take a bath first.”
The man didn’t let go of the tender flesh in his mouth, his voice muffled, “We can wash while we do it.”
Ah? !!!
Lu Yu grabbed his hair and panicked, “Tai Lie, don’t rush, I won’t run away, let’s take it slow… ”
Before he could finish his words, his mouth was blocked.
His teeth were forced apart.
The kiss from the hungry man was more dominant and aggressive than usual, mercilessly invading Lu Yu’s mouth.
Rip~
In the midst of being kissed, Lu Yu heard the sound of grass clothing being torn, followed by a cool sensation on his chest.
How desperate is this guy!
This horny…
Lu Yu sighed helplessly and amusingly in his heart.
Forget it, let him be. Lu Yu closed his eyes.
Lu Yu didn’t know that his soft-heartedness and his “let him be” would lead to such “serious” consequences.
The whole night!
Lu Yu felt like a fragile little boat that had endured a night of raging storms, shattered by the waves, floating on the shore, unable to move.
Lu Yu had overestimated himself. He only knew that the Matai people were strong in that aspect, but he didn’t know they were so outrageous, so terrifying, so inhuman. Maybe they had elephant blood in their ancestry, or some hidden ability…
If he hadn’t been unable to go on at the end, he estimated that Tai Lie could have had another three hundred rounds with him…
When he opened his eyes again, it was already bright outside.
Lu Yu lay under a tree, with thick, soft leaves underneath him and a large leaf on his stomach. The fragmented sunlight filtered through the leaves, and the sounds of unknown birds came from all directions, very pleasant and not disturbing.
What a suitable place for a nap.
For the first few seconds after waking up, Lu Yu felt quite good. His body was clean, his mind was clear, but as soon as he moved a little, he immediately stiffened.
Was he crushed by a ten-horse carriage in turn? Lu Yu couldn’t help but curse.
“You’re awake.” A voice came from beside him.
Lu Yu turned his head, feeling even more irritated.
Why, why!
In the end, he was the one who lay down and enjoyed himself last night. Why was it that the one responsible for the work, after working like a perpetual motion machine all night, looked as if he had taken an elixir, full of energy and radiance now!
The gap! This is the difference between human beings!
Lu Yu closed his eyes again, covering his ears.
Taking on a posture of “don’t bother me”.
Tai Lie looked at his rare childish movement, and the tenderness in his eyes almost overflowed.
“Do you want some porridge?” Tai Lie asked softly.
Lu Yu wanted to say he didn’t want any, but then he suddenly realized and stared wide-eyed, “Where did the porridge come from?!”
Tai Lie said, “Shan Pu came over in the morning, I asked him to bring it.”
Lu Yu felt extremely weak, “You mean… they all know…”
A couple stayed here all night, and one person still couldn’t move and needed someone to bring food. What they did was so obvious.
Would it be believable if they told Shan Pu and the others that he were dueling here with Tai Lie?
Lu Yu felt utterly despondent.
Tai Lie frowned slightly. Lu Yu didn’t want to do this with him? He seemed quite resistant last night…
Just as he was feeling impatient and uneasy, the person lying down suddenly sat up, picked up the porridge, gulped it down, and then wiped his mouth vigorously with the back of his hand.
“Let’s go!” Lu Yu’s expression was resolute.
They had to face it sooner or later. It was just a night, nothing to be embarrassed about.
He stood up, but his body immediately went limp as soon as he took a step.
Lu Yu’s face twisted for a moment.
Tai Lie supported him.
Seeing his current physical condition, Lu Yu felt hopeless.
He couldn’t let Tai Lie carry him back, or he would really have no face left.
After hesitating for a while, Lu Yu reluctantly threw a red pill into his mouth.
A few seconds passed.
Lu Yu felt the discomfort in his body receding like a tide, apart from feeling a bit sore and weak, he could move freely.
The part that had been excruciatingly painful before was now completely numb.
Lu Yu looked at the red pill in his hand with a complicated expression.
He knew it!
What kind of decent thing could that game panel give him!
