I woke up to find myself transmigrated into a disabled child.

Chapter 212 "Winter Excursion" Gathering Activities

The arrival of the first snow heralds the official start of winter, and everyone has put on their heavy winter clothes. Lei Xiu had also prepared Lei Xiu's gift for him well in advance.

Compared to the various styles of clothing in her previous life, the styles of the Spirit Feather Clan are equally impressive. In particular, everyone's clothes are tailor-made, so they fit better.

The materials used to make winter clothes include insect skins and plant fibers. Even after being here for so long, Lezhi still hasn't recognized all the types of skins and furs. His concept of insects is still limited to the few types he has ever seen.

As for the garment he was wearing, it was only after he asked that Lei Xiu told him that it was actually the fur of a caterpillar. There are many types of fur that can be used to make clothing, but caterpillar fur is one of the best.

As a wearer, Lezhi can offer a fair assessment: there are reasons why it's considered the best. For example, its excellent stretch and warmth retention make it a great choice. At least Lezhi didn't feel cold when she went out for training early in the morning, making it an outstanding piece of warm clothing. No wonder it's so popular among her people.

"...Everyone did a great job today. Tomorrow is the collection day. Those who signed up should remember the time and meeting place and not be late. Okay, that's all for today."

As the instructor for this term, Le Jing looked around at the group of young people in front of her. Although their cheeks were flushed and they were panting from the intense training, their eyes were still bright, and they were clearly in good spirits. Nodding silently to herself, Le Jing calmly made arrangements for tomorrow and then dismissed them.

After a month of training, the instructors and the instructors themselves had a basic understanding of their physical limits. So, although everyone was physically tired after a day of training, they were in good spirits. Lezhi even had the energy to playfully tease Leyou.

"Leyou, you're going tomorrow too, right? It's gathering day." Lezhi asked after catching her breath, her wrist being pulled by Leyou as they walked along the road, her other hand on her hip for support.

"Go ahead, Leting is going too, right?"

Walking beside Lezhi, Leting nodded. "It's rare to be able to go out, of course we have to go. We've been training for so long, this is the first time we've really gone out to collect materials."

"Sigh, it's a pity that Leju and Le Nian aren't training in the same team as us. I wonder how their instructors are arranged," Le You said with a sigh, nodding in agreement with Le Ting's words.

Because they had set up a stall together before, the Leyou team had always played together. However, after training began, Lezhi discovered that the Lingyu Clan's training classes were also divided into levels.

For example, Leju and Lenian passed the physical training earlier and then chose different training courses. Leyou and Leting are the same age, but they are younger than Leju and Lenian, so they have not yet met the physical training requirements. The clan's requirement is that only those who pass the physical training can continue to the next stage of learning, so they are still training in the physical training class with the newly enrolled Lezhi.

Physical training is not just about physical fitness, but also about basic flying skills, such as various landing methods, how to coordinate with teammates to exchange positions in the air, and how to quickly change formations without affecting others. There are many things to learn, so it is normal for progress to vary.

“After we get back from this collection day, we’ll probably start skills training. It’s the same every year, Lezhi. You need to be prepared. You’re the only newbie this year; everyone else has already learned some skills.” Le Ting looked at Lezhi with concern, worried that he might feel pressured.

"Oh well, so what if you've studied it? You still didn't pass. We'll help you out, Lezhi, don't worry." Leyou was quite optimistic. His foundation was actually pretty good, but he was sometimes too reckless, which is why he was kept for an extra year.

"Yes, I know. Don't worry, I was prepared. Yueyun taught me a little bit before, and I think I learned it pretty well."

"Really? That's good. Yueyun is indeed quite reliable." Hearing that it was a member of the guard team who came to help, Yueting felt much more at ease, clearly trusting the guard team's selection mechanism.

"Is it because he's part of the guard?" Lezhi asked curiously.

“Of course, even with Le Man, you see he can be a little off-track sometimes, but he never messes up when it comes to serious matters. That’s what the instructor said. He’s trained both Le Man and Le Yun.” Le Ting nodded, her eyes full of admiration.

Nodding, Lezhi understood Leting's feelings. Professional biases, no matter the world, will always exist in various forms.

"Sigh, I'm going this way. See you tomorrow then."

Soon they reached the fork in the road. Le Ting waved goodbye to Le You and Le Zhi, and walked down the path back to her home.

"Lezhi, are you going to take Maoqiu with you when you go out tomorrow?" Now that it was just the two of them, Lezhi had almost recovered his strength, so Leyou didn't hold his wrist anymore and walked side by side with Lezhi.

“Maybe I’ll bring it. I’ll go back and ask Maoqiu’s opinion. Why are you suddenly asking this?” Lezhi replied.

"...Well, it's nothing. It's just that you guys were talking about the guard team, and I suddenly remembered some news I heard a couple of days ago. It seems there's been some problem in the clan's territory recently, and the cause hasn't been found yet. So I was thinking you should bring Maoqiu with you tomorrow. Even though you already have wings, it's better to be prepared, and Maoqiu can also keep watch." When Leyou got to the point, he subconsciously lowered his voice, making Lezhi a little nervous.

"Okay, but Maoqiu needs to take care of the pups, so I don't know if she can leave. I'll go back and think of a way."

"Well, if all else fails, just bring the baby along. I'll take care of him for you." Leyou patted his chest, looking very reliable.

……

"So, that's why you look like this." Le Ting looked at Le Zhi, who had a familiar bundle tied around her chest again, and curiously tried to peek inside, but was driven back by the look of the fur ball that suddenly popped out.

"Yeah, I told Maoqiu last night that I was taking it out today, and the little guy seemed to understand. It opened its eyes very early this morning, and somehow it found this bundle and just spread it out in the living room. I can't do anything about it," Lezhi said helplessly.

He knew in his heart that it was impossible for the fledglings to find the bundles he had put in the cupboard, so Maoqiu was the culprit. However, it was probably doing this because of the fledglings' antics, and since everyone was going out, leaving the fledglings alone to watch the house was indeed inappropriate, so Lezhi could only acquiesce to their actions.

We can't expect Lei Xiu to take care of the chicks, can we? Even if he's willing, the chicks aren't.

"Okay, that's settled for now. We'll help if the instructor asks later, don't worry."

The collection day is much more relaxed than the training day. This refers to the skills learned in the practical course, which is actually a form of relaxation. So as long as there is a legitimate reason, Le Jing should not have any objections.

However, just to be on the safe side, Leyou and Leting secretly stood in front of Lezhi during the gathering. It's fine to want special treatment, but it's best not to make a big fuss about it. Otherwise, if it angers everyone, even if Lejing didn't initially object, she'd eventually have to.

Fortunately, they had trained together as a team for over a month, so they had developed a certain camaraderie. Plus, Maoqiu had often accompanied Lezhi on collection trips, so they didn't attract too much attention. Lejing merely glanced in Lezhi's direction without saying anything more.

"Alright, everyone's here. Let's go. We'll fly in the same basic formation we learned in the previous lesson, in that order. Understand?"

"Yes."
