Chapter 24: Slowly Coming To Understand
Everyone says that virgins naturally carry a faint fragrance on their bodies, but this statement is pure nonsense. The pervert who said it must have been blinded by hormones, and in that instant, even the smell of shit would emit a intoxicating aroma to him.
E Ji’s virgin traits are very obvious, like her belt fish-like figure, and when aroused, she just clings tightly to the man’s body, not letting the man maneuver, in a silly manner.
She doesn’t know that at this time she should let go of the man, let the man explore her body, instead of clinging tightly to the man, only caring about venting her own emotions.
Although Yun Ce was also determined by the gold-medal old traditional Chinese medicine doctor to be a virgin boy, this doesn’t mean he can’t withstand a woman’s temptation. On the contrary, among the entire Yun Clan, he is the one most welcomed by women.
Noble, pure, erudite, with a family worth billions, or women who possess all four of these styles at the same time—he has seen them all.
As for beautiful, coquettish, seductive, or even purely lust bomb-shaped ones, in their family, those are the least presentable.
It’s quite laughable—noble families have no beauties, at least no stunning beauties. Despite their constant efforts to mate with the most beautiful women to improve their genes, the vast majority of their offspring are grotesquely shaped.
Plus, they fundamentally look down on plastic surgery, considering it the greatest insult to their original genes. So, pretty, wise, and temperamentally stable ones have become rarities. （Believe me, I’m telling the truth!!!）
E Ji’s belt fish-like figure naturally couldn’t move him. Despite the young girl’s raw passion being so intense, the most Yun Ce could do was turn over, hold this slim, hot body indistinguishable as male or female, and continue sleeping.
It’s the same principle as animals courting, especially when the courter is a female beast. You may not like it, but you can’t humiliate her, otherwise, it’s not conducive to humanity’s great cause of reproduction.
1 When the full moon appears, the night is not much different from daytime. The silvery white moonlight shining in from the small window falls right on Yun Ce’s bed.
1 Although E Ji is a bit taller than Yun Ce at this time, when she curls up in his arms, she appears so helpless and petite.
1 That night, Yun Ce slept very well, and E Ji also slept very well. The former because having a humanoid pillow in his arms didn’t feel so empty, the latter feeling immensely satisfied thinking she had become Yun Ce’s woman.
1 Old Zhao Jin had been guarding E Ji’s doorstep all last night without going back to sleep. In the morning, peeking through the door crack and seeing the young pair embracing tightly without a gap, he went back to bring all his weapons to Yun Ce, pretending to have just arrived.
1 One knife, one sharp spear, and one bow with sixteen arrows.
1 “I remember there should also be armor.” Yun Ce wrote on the wooden slip.
1 “I failed to become a Gongshi, have no right to wear armor, and can’t afford it.”
1 Gongshi is the lowest rank among the twenty ranks of Qin and Han nobility. Although it’s an entry-level rank, it requires beheading five enemies in open battle to obtain such a title. Note, it’s proper warfare! Not ambush, not sneak attack, but beheading five in a fair and square battle between two armies.
1 Understood, Hekou Village is just an unnamed village without even a Gongshi, and now it has to face living dead worms and a beast swift as wind whose identity is unknown.
1 This is work, very similar to on Earth—a small village with nothing but poverty, yet still has to carry out investment attraction and cultural revival tasks.
2 After Yun Ce picked up the spear, slung the bow and arrow on his back, and left the village, Zhao Jin ordered the gate closed. They planned to wait for Yun Ce to confirm the existence of the man-eating beast before digging traps.
2 E Ji had flipped over the village gate to run out, carrying a chopping knife that could be used for cutting tree bark…
2 After the two arrived at the Yi Tree Grove, Yun Ce first circled the grove once, then sent E Ji up a Yi Tree with a large fork, letting her sit quietly on it. He himself, as usual, continued peeling tree bark.
2 Industrious people are like this—they must show their industrious nature regardless of time or place. Only in this way can they achieve the goal of diligence leads to wealth.
2 “If a wild beast comes, you run, 90%” E Ji muttered endlessly while riding on the tree.
2 “Don’t worry about me, it’s good if one of us in the family stays alive, 95%”
2 “If I’m not completely eaten by the wild beast, collect my remaining corpse bones. There’s a patterned bag under my bed, use it to hold them, bury them deep—some wild beasts have very keen noses. 95%”
2 Seeing E Ji already moved to tears by herself, Yun Ce set down the freshly peeled tree bark, went to the nearby grass to pull out a little wild boar carcass, dug a trench, and started making roast pig. From the moment Yun Ce took out the little wild boar, E Ji forgot to cry.
2 When E Ji started gnawing on the roast pig while riding on the tree branch, Yun Ce, following Doggy’s reminder, cast his gaze to the left side of the Yi Tree Grove, where a black shadow flashed once and disappeared.
2 Yun Ce ignored it, picked up the knife again to cut tree bark. In general, wild beasts that have faced humans and still need to sneak attack humans aren’t too powerful—at least, not stronger than him.
3 “Pa pa pa” Yun Ce vigorously whipped the tree bark in the forest. Seeing it all soften and sag, he finally stopped, bundled the tree bark, and prepared to take it back.
3 E Ji hadn’t slept well last night. After eating her fill, she continued sleeping on the tree branch. She very much enjoyed the pleasant feeling of delicious food slowly digesting in her stomach.
3 After being woken by Yun Ce, she hugged the tree trunk and slid down. Yun Ce stood by the trunk to catch her—trees are slippery after rain, afraid she would fall.
3 E Ji was already very careful, but halfway down she still screamed and slid. Yun Ce didn’t choose to catch the scheming E Ji, but clenched his fist and delivered a heavy left hook that smashed into a black shadow pouncing toward him.
3 Yun Ce’s current strength is very great, so his fist is naturally very heavy. After taking a punch, the black shadow lost its forward momentum and suddenly flew back.
3 The sound of bones breaking just entered his ears when Yun Ce had already reached up to grab E Ji sliding down from the tree, set her down properly, then turned his head to look at the black shadow fallen to the ground.
3 The black shadow lay on the ground, still a dark blur. It was clearly a person, but the full body of fur made it look not quite human.
3 “Mong saka!”
3 “Wildman! 18%”
3 Yun Ce used his foot to spread out the limp wildman, and surprisingly discovered it was indeed a person. The fur on his body was a bear skin, just that the bear skin was fused too tightly with his body—not like it was stuck on, more like freshly peeled hot bear skin combined with this person who had also been skinned quite a bit.
4 Yun Ce frowned. This act of beastifying humans is absolutely barbaric culture, at the bottom level in cultural hierarchy, commonly seen in monotheistic religions as well as shaman, voodoo priest cultures. They firmly believe people can draw some non-human strength from powerful wild beast bodies.
4 This guy’s left hand was fitted with a bear claw, the sharp claws deliberately sharpened, very sharp. The long sibling who died on the drum face died from this claw. His right hand was fitted with a skull of some bear-like creature—these creatures have many teeth, very sharp. If this dead wildman had great strength, he could control the skull’s upper and lower jaws with his hand to form a complex biting action.
4 Yun Ce removed the bear skull from the wildman’s hand, played with it for a bit, even used the bear head to grab a tree. As a result, the bear head cracked, and messy bones scattered all over the ground.
4 He picked up the two largest canines, put them in his pocket, to craft two bear tooth pendants when he had time.
4 E Ji was very nervous. Ever since discovering the wildman was the one who harmed the long sibling, she was extremely tense, even abandoning the freshly peeled tree bark, wanting to tie tree bark rope around the wildman’s corpse and drag him back.
4 The industrious Yun Ce naturally wouldn’t abandon the tree bark. He shouldered these things and dragged the wildman’s corpse back to Hekou Village together with E Ji.
4 Zhao Jin looked at the wildman’s corpse, thinking he would breathe a sigh of relief at no longer having this harm, but instead, his face looked even worse.
4 Because he needed to observe the entire ecology of Hekou Village, Yun Ce naturally wouldn’t actively involve himself in their affairs, only considering himself an ordinary resident of the village.
4 Although he didn’t understand exactly what these people were fretting over, Yun Ce knew the broken windows theory. The long sibling’s death was the first broken window, the person with living dead worm in their stomach was the second broken window, and this wildman was naturally the third broken window.
4 Since there were already three broken windows, the remaining glass on Hekou Village’s big window shattering was just a matter of short time.
5 If someone was pushing these events from behind, the window would rot even sooner.
5 From the constipated expression on Zhao Jin’s face, it was probably the most dangerous, most desperate kind.
5 Yun Ce skewered a green dumpling on a tree branch and roasted it over the fire pit. This thing softens immediately when grilled, sticky like rice cake. If you continue baking until it’s pale yellow, it’s really delicious, because it naturally layers—peel off a layer of fragrant crispy skin, continue roasting, another layer of golden crisp appears underneath. Add a bit of salt, and it’s just like eating crispy rice.
5 Hekou Village’s livelihood is really very simple. Apart from Yi Tree industry and gathering industry, there’s nothing else—not even hunting.
5 Before the invention of guns, hunting was very risky. Women are innately unable to fight wild beasts, so patrilineal society replaced the ancient matrilineal society. Ultimately, men relied on their strong physiques to push women into the important roles of childbearing and gathering.
5 Hekou Village’s men are unreliable—this isn’t just Yun Ce’s view; E Ji and those women see it the same way. After losing so many legs, the village doesn’t even have a Gongshi, to the point that other villages don’t want marriage alliances with them, and can only endlessly send people to beat that drum, hoping someone takes pity and comes to sleep with them.
