C36 (1/2)

At night, after Lin Xiao laid down, Ya Heng didn't go back to his room. Instead, he went to his bed and laid down.

Lin Xiao turned his head and looked at the face that was just inches away from him. He smiled and said, ”What's wrong, is there something on your mind?” He knew what he was going to ask.

”Why did you do that today?” Ya Heng turned to face Lin Xiao.

”Didn't you already guess it?” Lin Xiao also turned to face him.

Ya Heng touched his face and said, ”I guessed that you wanted them to exchange it with something, but I didn't know why you did that.”

Actually, Lin Xiao had already thought about it from the beginning. The first time he took it for free, he would give them an impression that there would be a second time after the first time.

Lin Xiao's original plan was to give it to them for free the second time, but when he was pulling wild vegetables from the forest, he went back on his word. Why did he give it to them for free?

So the second showdown began.

However, his goal was not to get them to trade. He did not lack those things. Ya Heng was powerful, and he did not lack beast skins or anything like that.

His ultimate goal was to see when the rain stopped five days later.

Lin Xiao did not intend to tell Ya Heng. Sometimes, you have to be ruthless. You have to take down your opponent at once.

This was Ya Heng's tribe. Even if he was subjected to other unfair treatment, he would not resist because his upbringing was about sharing the responsibilities. He was willing to accept oppression and was even willing to share because these were the ideas instilled into him since he was young.

It was a very scary thought. Lin Xiao wanted to break it.

Ya Heng waved his hand in front of his face. ”Lin Xiao, what are you thinking about?”

”Oh, nothing.” Lin Xiao came back to his senses and smiled embarrassedly, ”I don't have any purpose, I just want to tell them that I can't take the things that have been stolen for nothing.”

Ya Heng asked doubtfully, ”Really?”

”Of course it's true.” With a guilty conscience, Lin Xiao turned around with his back facing Ya Heng and said, ”Sleep.”

Ya Heng stared at Ye Zichen's back for a long time and frowned. In the end, he didn't say anything and just reached out to pull Ye Zichen into his arms and closed his eyes.

It happened on the third stop of the rain.

After lunch, the rain stopped, but Lin Xiao noticed something.

He looked up at the clouds and frowned.

After the rain had stopped, the dark clouds in the sky would thin out and part of the cloud would dissipate. When the clouds reassembled, it would be right when they were going to leave.

When the clouds grew thick again, it began to rain again.

But the weather was not right today.

The clouds in the sky had no intention of dissipating, and there was no wind.

Just then, someone from the tribe rushed down to the house to retrieve something.

Lin Xiao rushed out of the door and saw Chiping at the door. ”Chiping, what are you doing out here?”

”Everyone said that the rain stopped, so they came out to find something to eat. Before, you guys were fine too, so …” Before Qiping could finish, he was interrupted by Lin Xiao.

Lin Xiao looked at Qiping in panic, ”Hurry up and go back, the weather isn't right today.”

Qiping was stunned, but he still trusted Lin Xiao, so he immediately turned around and ran.

Ya Heng and Kagel also came out and asked him what was the matter.

”Hurry up, split up and call these beastmen back, it's going to rain soon.” Lin Xiao said worriedly.

Ya Heng didn't have time to ask why, but seeing his anxious look, he knew something was up.
