Koya was resting nearby, and she was surprised to hear my words, then she winked playfully at me.
"Master, what are you going to give me? What a coincidence, I also prepared a gift for Master."
I smiled mysteriously, picked up the backpack by the window, and fumbled inside to pull out a yellowed parchment.
I don't know what animal's skin this parchment is made of, but it looks quite old, and it's what I found from Xinlaijia.
When I found this parchment before, I showed it to Kexin. Kexin was confused, she only felt that she had heard about this thing from someone in her tribe, so she brought it with her.
Koya took the parchment, opened it, and saw dense text on it, which seemed to be in the wild language, but most of the characters were unfamiliar.
"Master, where did you find this thing? It looks like something from our tribe."
Hearing Koya's question, I told her all about the matters with Xinlaijia on the way. Koya couldn't help but exclaimed.
"Master, it's Koya's fault. If I knew Master would encounter such a dangerous thing on the way, Koya would never have agreed to be king!"
Hearing Koya's words, my heart warmed, and I smiled at her.
"I've been through all sorts of storms, what can a small tree do to me! We'll have Taji ask him to take a look at this parchment tomorrow. He should know what this is."
Although it was late, I had already slept, so I was very energetic and kept chatting with Kexin and Koya until I saw them yawning uncontrollably, and then I stopped talking.
"Koya, what gift were you going to give me?"
I suddenly remembered the gift Koya had mentioned preparing for me earlier and asked with some doubt.
Koya got up and extinguished the fire by the window, and in the darkness, she pulled my hand towards the bed.
"Master, you must cherish this gift."
...
Spring nights are short, and the sun rises high, from then on, the king does not attend morning court.
The next day, I woke up early.
I don't know if it's my current physical condition, but even after such strenuous exercise last night, I didn't feel tired this morning.
Seeing that the sun outside was still early, I didn't wake up Kexin and Koya. Instead, I carefully freed myself from their warm embrace and went out for morning exercises.
Heh, I never thought that I, Lu Ziye, would one day experience what the ancients called the bliss of having multiple wives!
I stretched my body while reminiscing about the taste of last night.
Unfortunately, such opportunities will probably be fewer in the future.
After I finished my morning exercises, Kexin and Koya also came out of the small room yawning.
Traces of the crazy marks we left yesterday were still on Koya's neck.
Seeing my teasing gaze, her small face blushed, and she hid behind Kexin.
This girl, she's already a tribal leader, and she's still so shy now. It seems she needs more training.
Compared to Koya, Kexin was much more composed.
She sat down beside me generously, but the blush on her face betrayed her inner feelings.
"Come, come, eat more meat to replenish your strength."
Kexin and Koya only responded softly and began to eat.
A feeling of pity arose in my heart.
After all, although Koya and Kexin had been through a lot as former saintesses, they were still inexperienced in matters of men and women. I would need to pamper them more in the future.
After dinner, according to the original plan, Kexin and I should have left, but with Kexin's current state, it was questionable whether she could travel.
"Kexin, are you feeling better? Do you want to rest for a couple of days?"
Kexin shook her head, biting her lip.
"Master, I'm fine. Let's go."
Since Kexin was fine, I said a few words to Koya, promising to visit her in a few days.
Then I set off on the return journey with Kexin.
The journey back was very peaceful. In less than half a day, Kexin and I returned to our cave.
I finally breathed a sigh of relief upon returning. After all, no matter how good Kascha tribe was, it wasn't mine. Only this cave was my only base on this deserted island.
However, sleeping at Kascha tribe gave me some inspiration.
Our population is growing, and we can't all squeeze into the cave. We need to find a safe place to establish our real camp.
I returned and shared my thoughts with everyone.
Everyone agreed.
Wang Peng even complained to me that there were lice biting him in the cave, and he couldn't sleep well every day.
Seeing that no one objected, I spent the next few days leading everyone to search for a suitable location nearby.
And sure enough, my luck was explosive!
Not far from us, in the forest, there was indeed an excellent place to establish a camp.
It was backed by a mountain wall, so there was no need to worry about wild beast attacks from the rear.
And not far from this place was a small stream, which solved our drinking water problem. Kuaishu Pavilion.
Since the place had been chosen, there was no time to delay. Every morning, I would lead the survivors to collect food in the forest, and in the afternoon, we would build our camp at the chosen site.
However, while building the camp, I noticed that Zhao Ming and Wang Peng did not get along.
The two of them hardly communicated, and they were too lazy to even look at each other.
I kept this matter in mind, but building the new camp was the most important thing, so I didn't talk to them privately.
After a few days, our camp had already taken shape, and we would be able to move out of this cave soon!
I originally thought that our days would pass in this steady rhythm, but who knew that the tree desired to be still, but the wind would not cease, and something else happened!
One evening, after I finished dinner and was thinking of going for a walk to aid digestion.
Suddenly, Wang Peng, that kid, sneakily followed me. Seeing that no one was around, he called me to stop.
"Boss, something big has happened!"
