Fu Rui picked up a branch and drew a line about twenty centimeters wide beside the stream.
Yuan took the initiative to ask him a question.
“Rui, what are you doing?”
“I’m drawing a support line.”
Fu Rui handed her a tree branch. “Here, help me with this.”
“I can’t, meow…”
“It’s okay, I’ll teach you.”
He hugged her slender waist from behind, grabbed her hand, and continued carving marks on the ground.
Xia watched them walk further and further away. Thus, she could not help but ask, “Village Chief Rui, what should we do?”
“Follow the line I drew and dig up the soil in the middle. You don’t have to dig too deep, just enough for the stream to pass through.”
Fu Rui left behind these words. Then, the figure holding Yuan almost went out of sight.
Li Li, the dog-eared girl, stuck out her tongue and said enviously, “The Village Chief seems to like Yuan.”
“Yuan is so cute. Don’t we all like her?” Xia didn’t have any thoughts about this. “I’m more interested to know what the Village Chief is planning to do.”
At this moment, Wei Wei walked up to Li Li and patted her head. “Hurry up and do your work. This is the first time that Village Chief Rui has guided us. Don’t disappoint him.”
“Yes, yes!”
Li Li and Xia both nodded.
However, they did not have any tools for excavation. Thus, they could only use their stone knives and stone axes to cut open the surface little by little. Then, they used the hardness of the tools to loosen the soil.
Meanwhile, the beast-eared girls who did not even have a stone saber or a stone axe used their hands to scoop up the soil.
The efficiency of the entire excavation team was extremely low. After working for a long time, they only managed to open up a canal that was more than ten meters long. Their progress was slow.
After almost two hours passed, Fu Rui returned with Yuan. He couldn’t help but be slightly worried when he saw this scene.
Without tools like shovels, this tribe was indeed unsuitable for farming.
However, there was no other choice. The construction of this canal was very necessary. After all, for the entire beast-eared tribe, a clean water source was a good thing that could save lives.
Fu Rui and Yuan also joined the excavation team.
After half a day of hard work, the dozen or so beast-eared females took a few breaks in batches before finally completing this unprecedented project.
The stone axes they brought out were essentially damaged by the high-intensity work.
Meanwhile, the hands of the beast-eared females had more or less suffered varying degrees of damage from prolonged digging.
Fu Rui’s heart ached when he saw this, but this was unavoidable. After all, living in this era was full of risks.
However, everything would also be rewarded accordingly.
As Fu Rui dug out the last barrier between the canal and the stream, a large amount of water flowed into the canal.
The turbulent water brought along some sand with it as it flowed towards the direction of the beast-eared tribe.
Fu Rui brought them around the canal and did not find any obvious problems with it.
It seemed like the water-drawing plan had succeeded.
However, it would take some time to fill the reservoir outside the village.
Before the sky turned dark, Fu Rui led another batch of beast-eared women with new tools. They headed to the bamboo forest to cut down some bamboo.
Although Yuan was already very tired, she still requested to follow Fu Rui.
This time, Fu Rui did not let her do any work as her performance today surprised him greatly.
It was very hard for him to imagine that Yuan, who was thin and frail, could actually do the same amount of work as the beast-eared girls who had a burly figure and strength like Xia.
It must have been hard on her.
“Is this the territory of the porcupine tribe?” Fu Rui sat on a rock, hugging Yuan in his arms as he massaged her body.
Yuan closed her eyes with great fatigue and licked his arm lightly with her little tongue. This meant a silent agreement.
Fu Rui simply asked her casually. Seeing how tired she was, he did not say anything else.
In the bamboo forest, the beast-eared girls carried out their logging work in an orderly manner.
Thin bamboo stalks fell one after another. Then their branches and leaves were removed to be divided into several sections.
This process was very noisy. Yuan, who was in Fu Rui’s arms, would often be woken up as soon as she fell asleep. Her eyes were filled with grievance.
“I’m so sleepy, meow…”
The kitten seemed to have learned how to whine.
Fu Rui couldn’t help but laugh and scratch her nose. “I told you to stay in the village to rest, but you didn’t listen and insisted on following me out.”
“Meow, meow, meow, meow…” Yuan pouted and tightened her arms around his back. “Yuan wanted to follow you.”
Fu Rui couldn’t help but kiss her.
With this kiss, he couldn’t resist it anymore…
The two of them could not help but close their eyes to enjoy the thrill of kissing.
This was almost a collision of souls, and they could not help but be engrossed in it.
Fu Rui only let Yuan go when she was almost out of breath.
A curious expression appeared in Yuan’s pure eyes. This was not their first kiss, but she felt that this kiss had a unique feeling.
Thus, she smacked her red lips lightly as if she was savoring the aftertaste.
“It seems… rather comfortable, meow ~”
As she spoke, she and Fu Rui looked at each other in confusion. “Rui, did you bring a rod again?”
Fu Rui coughed lightly and arched his body. “I’ll move the rod away now.”
“Meow…” Yuan let out a lazy meow, yawned, and slowly closed her eyes again.
Meanwhile, Fu Rui placed his hand on her stomach and pressed it gently.
Yuan did not resist at all. If a kitten was willing to let one touch its weak parts, it was a sign of trust.
Kittens was like that, so Fu Rui believed that cat-eared girls should be the same too.
“Gulu gulu~~~”
In fact, she would even produce a happy voice from her throat like a kitten.
“Rui, can you rub a little higher, meow~” Yuan muttered.
“Huh?” Fu Rui thought he had heard her wrongly. If he went any higher, he would touch her breasts…
Yuan repeated herself again intermittently, as if she was about to fall asleep.
Fu Rui stared at her chest, which was clearly protruding because she was wearing a T-shirt. He hesitated for a moment before slowly putting his hand on her chest.
Yuan thought that this was kneading, so it wouldn’t be a big deal even if he touched her chest, right…
At that moment, Fu Rui’s cerebral cortex was overwhelmed by the wonderful sensation of softness and fullness!
His senses were stimulated, and he could only bend his body even more to prevent his “rod” from disturbing the sleeping kitten.
This indescribable process was torturous, yet comfortable.
It was painful, but joyful as well.
After an unknown period of time, the beast-eared girls who were cutting down the bamboo gradually stopped what they were doing and began to tidy up the bamboo.
Fu Rui retracted his hand reluctantly and walked towards them with Yuan in his arms.
“Is it all done?” He tried to lower his voice as much as he could.
The beast-eared girls nodded in agreement.
“Alright, let’s go back then.”
