Chapter 177 Hama
The houses of the orcs are mostly built of stones. The geology here is somewhat special. If you dig from some specific places, you can dig out rocks that are stacked like layers of cake.
It is easy to dig out large pieces of rock, grind them a little, and then fix them on the ground with a specific structure, and it will be a pretty good house.
It is warm in winter and cool in summer, and it is easy to build. It can be easily built by a few people with some strength working together.
This is also the reason why the fire did not burn this place clean back then.
All the people living here were burned to death and turned into ashes, but the village still exists.
The village in front of us is made up of stone houses built like that. A layer of fence is made outside the village with mud. Some stones are mixed in and then dried to make it a very practical thing.
It cannot protect against monsters, but it can protect against wild beasts and sandstorms.
There were a few anxious-looking people waiting at the entrance of the village. When they saw Irena approaching with the earth dragon and the girl behind her, they all quickly gathered around.
"Dad! Dad! I got the purple wheel grass!" The girl shouted loudly to the people over there, raising the purple wheel grass in her hand and waving it above her head.
"You child, you child!" said the woman with horse hoof legs, wiping her tears.
"If anything happens, I don't know what to do." The woman kept wiping her eyes.
A middle-aged man wearing glasses came forward and thanked Irena repeatedly.
"Thank you for bringing her back, thank you, thank you!" he said.
Irena looked at him with some surprise.
She had never seen a horse person before, and they were considered a minority among the orcs. When she saw Xinglun, she was a little surprised and wanted to know what the difference was between them and the legendary centaurs. She was a little disappointed when she saw that there was nothing special about the girl except her ears and tail.
After much trouble, it turned out that it was because her father was a completely human being, and her mother was a horse, so her bloodline was diluted.
She glanced at the woman's feet inconspicuously. They were exactly like horse hooves, except that the cuticle at the back was thicker, so that it could support them standing on their feet.
Irena took the girl off the earth dragon's back and handed her to the woman in front of her.
She quickly took the girl over and kept thanking Irena.
The mother and daughter retreated to the back and whispered to each other, while the man said, "Thank you, Big Wolf, for bringing our daughter back!"
He clasped his hands together in front of his forehead.
Big Wolf? That was a long time ago.
This was long before the Orc Empire split. The wolf tribe held a very important position in the empire at that time. They were responsible for protecting the empire and were highly respected.
Big Wolf is a respectful title for the respected people in the wolf clan.
But later the empire split and turned into tribes, and the name was forgotten by the world and never mentioned again.
In order to commemorate the glory of their ancestors, the name of their former village was called Big Wolf Village.
Irena still remembers the scene in the village before, from being full of vitality to being a scorched earth in just one night.
But now it's alive again.
The man invited Irena to visit their home, and after thinking about it, Irena agreed.
The most coincidental thing was that she discovered that the place they lived in was actually her former home.
I used to have many brothers and sisters.
There are nine brothers, sisters and younger brothers in total.
Although our family was very poor at that time, we were also very happy.
Dad always said that when they grew up a little, he would take them to quarry stones and build houses so that they wouldn’t have to sleep together.
Unexpectedly, in the end, no one grew up except myself.
The layout of the house has not changed.
In the past, my father built a small pavilion with stones to store water tanks.
Even the small pavilion is still in the middle of the yard.
The only difference was that there was a very weak and skinny armored camel tied up in the yard, lying there weakly.
There was also an old man who had been waiting with the couple at the village gate, and he also came here with them.
He mixed the purple wheel grass that Xinglun brought back with some mud, sprinkled some salt into it, smeared it on a big stone and placed it in front of the armored camel beast.
The dying beast licked the contents clean.
But after a while he started vomiting.
After the man came back here, he went into the house. When he came out after a while, he was holding a bowl of milk in his hand.
"Big Wolf, please drink some armored camel milk." He handed the bowl of milk to Irena.
The man's expression was a little embarrassed. This was the best thing their family could come up with.
Irena hesitated for a moment, reached out to take the bowl of milk, sniffed it, tilted her head back and drank it all up.
The taste of the milk is very thin, it should be produced by this armored camel beast.
But it is so weak that the milk it produces will not contain any nutrients.
It is quite rare to see humans here, let alone humans who are married here.
Irena returned the bowl to the man in front of her. The man had just brought out a kettle. He was about to pour armored camel milk into it, but Irena raised her hand to stop him.
"No need, one bowl is enough for me." Irene said.
"Big Wolf, you saved my daughter. If you don't mind, please let me entertain you again." said the man.
"Don't call me Big Wolf, my name is Irena." The wolf warrior said, "No need to entertain me, I have to continue my journey later."
"Dear big wolf, my name is Hama." He introduced himself.
"Then come in and sit for a while." He invited Irena to come in and sit for a while.
"......" Irena nodded.
The layout inside the house was familiar; even the stove was in its original position.
The woman from the Nama tribe applied medicine to the girl and changed her clothes.
"You, your blanket, please let me wash it for you."
The woman said so.
"I was originally an investigator of Ornn. A long time ago, I came here mainly to investigate how the orcs lived after the empire was divided."
“I didn’t expect that I would accidentally meet Connie here, and eventually I settled down here.”
He said this, looking at the woman over there.
The woman brought in a basin of water from outside and put the blanket that Irena had just used to wrap up Xinglun into the basin and began to scrub it.
Hearing Hama's voice, she smiled shyly over here.
