Chapter 51:

The people of the Hairy Horned Beast Jintuo tribe failed to dig out the corner, so they left with the skills of burning charcoal and making furnaces, but they were happy and a little frustrated.

In order to show the enthusiasm of the tribe, Qing Kuo originally wanted to send someone to give it away, but when he asked, everyone in the tribe was unwilling.

The people of the Jintuo tribe walked too slowly, and the impatient big cats and dogs simply couldn't stand it.

Rather than sending people away, the orcs would rather go hunting.

It has been quite warm these days, and the snow outside has melted a lot, revealing the withered yellow grass.

The orcs said that the weather was good enough to go hunting, and most of the prey would come out to eat grass.

Jian Mo also heard the news that the orcs wanted to go hunting. He was also unable to hold back in the tribe and asked Wu Jiong: "What kind of prey are there now? I remember that some grass-eating prey have migrated to the south, right?"

Wu Jiong : "Small prey are still there, and some prey living in the mountains are still there. Didn't we see those hairy-horned beasts on the mountain when we went to collect honey blocks?"

Jian Mo immediately thought about it: "Then why If we can catch fresh prey, it will definitely be better than eating frozen meat."

Wu Jiong: "They can run very fast, and they can run for a whole day and night in the mountains. Their animal forms may not be as flexible as theirs, and they can easily fall down when running in the mountains."

Jian Mo didn't expect this: "That seems a bit dangerous?"

Wu Jiong: "It's not particularly easy when hunting. You're right. It's better to eat fresh prey than frozen meat. We have to take advantage of the good weather to add a batch of meat." Jian

Mo: "Then you want to go?"

Wu Jiong: "Go, I'll discuss it with them tomorrow."

It had been a long time since I had gone out hunting and gathering. When I heard that I could go out, there was no objection at all from the tribe.

So, everyone prepared and planned to go out together.

Jian Mo didn't expect that sub-orcs could also go out, and was a little worried: "Don't say that the prey are particularly powerful? And in winter, the beasts also lack food, so they will be more violent than usual, right? If we follow, will it be a hindrance?"

Qing Kuo: "It's okay, they just took us to the mountain. Then they will go hunting and we can collect on the mountain."

Jian Mo was relieved: "That's okay, I'll go too. What's on the mountain at this time?"

said Ye Luo next to him. : "There are a lot of things to eat. We can collect moss and mushrooms. Some mushrooms will be dried directly on the mountain. We have collected them in previous years. You can go and see them again this year."

Zhou Fu came over and said, "Actually, there are still more . You can dig up the stem pieces in the soil. The vines on them will not be damaged. If you dig them out now, they will definitely be fresher than the stem pieces we have stored at home."

Qing Kuo saw Jian Mo's eyes light up and said with a smile. "There are also remaining fruits on the branches and insects in the soil that can be collected."

Jian Mo listened to what they were saying, and the more she listened, the more excited she became, and she wanted to set off immediately.

When he went out, he specially stacked two large baskets on top of each other, so that he would not have enough food to collect when he went out later.

Wu Jiong took the basket in his hand: "Food is indeed scarce in winter, so we shouldn't need two such big baskets."

Jian Mo pushed Wu Jiong's shoulder: "I don't care, the baskets aren't heavy anyway. We'll take it with us to be prepared."

Everyone gathered in the open space as usual before setting off. Jian Mo sat high on Wu Jiong and turned to look around.

Eighty percent of the people in the tribe came out, including some elderly people and children.

It seems that everyone is exhausted and can't wait to go out and relax.

After ordering all the people, the orcs quickly transformed into beast forms and started running.

The cold wind was strong outside, and after running for a while, Jian Mo felt that her ears and the tip of her nose were cold. Especially the tip of the nose, because the nose protrudes from the middle of the face, and the tip of the nose stands facing the wind, and it is almost frozen solid.

He had to pull down his animal skin hat, and then pulled up his animal skin coat to cover it. He tried his best to cover all the exposed skin, leaving only his eyes to see the road and his mouth to breathe.

Still, it was so cold that his front teeth hurt.

He turned around and looked around. The sub-orcs were trying their best to transform parts of their bodies back into beast form - they couldn't completely transform into beasts, but they could turn parts of their ears, eyes, noses, etc. into beast marks.

It was obvious that the parts transformed into beasts were much more resistant to the cold. Everyone seemed to be in high spirits, and they did not look embarrassed even if their cheeks turned red due to the cold.

"Are you cold?" The giant wolf turned his head and looked at Jian Mo worriedly, "You lie down, it will be warmer."

Jian Mo released the hand covering his mouth and smiled: "It's not bad."

The giant wolf: "Tell me if it's cold."

Jian Mo nodded.

After the giant wolf turned his head, Jian Mo lay on top of him.

His body temperature was transferred to her, and she felt much warmer after covering her.

Jian Mo also put his hands under his hair to warm them, and slowly recovered.

There was nothing worth hunting near the tribe. They had to go to the edge of the tribe and to the high mountains.

After driving for a long time, when the sun was almost in the middle, they finally reached one of the mountains in a certain mountain range.

Wu Jiong said to Jian Mo: "We are going up the mountain to hunt hairy horned beasts. You and the other sub-orcs in the tribe are collecting here. Don't be alone. It is very dangerous to be alone in this season."

Jian Mo agreed seriously and then said: " You also have to be careful, it's good if you can catch prey, safety comes first."

After the two sides said goodbye, the orcs went hunting, and the sub-orcs took the cubs to collect.

Jian Mo was among them, surrounded by cubs, saying they wanted to listen to his story.

It was dry and cold in the mountains, the land was covered with ice and snow, and the rocks underfoot were unstable. As soon as they stepped on the rocks, they fell down. Jian Mo was really not in the mood to tell stories. He waved his hands and said to the cubs: "We will tell it when we get back. Now Everyone, please be safe."

Cat Banjiu, who was walking beside Jian Mo, glanced at Jian Mo and ran forward lightly: "Brother Jian Mo, I will help you find the way, you follow my footsteps. "

When the other cubs saw this situation, they immediately ran forward: "Brother Jian Mo, we will help you find the way."

Qing Kuo stopped: "Don't run away! Come to the middle."

As soon as Qing Kuo said something, the cubs immediately stopped being naughty and behaved themselves in the crowd.

Jian Mo touched his nose.

Qing Kuo patted him on the shoulder: "You should go to the middle with the little guys, it will be safer."

Jian Mo nodded: "Okay."

The little cubs include little orcs and little sub-orcs, no matter what gender they are. Everyone must learn to collect and lay the foundation for independent survival in the future.

The adults of the tribe taught them carefully and in detail when they brought the cubs out. Jian Mo followed along and learned a lot.

The types of food they collect are also very diverse, ranging from hibernating insects to small animals, from moss to mushrooms to general stems, nuts, fresh fruits, etc.

As long as it is edible, everyone will try to take it back. Even if some food is not so delicious, everyone will not waste it.

Jian Mo and the others walked along the ridge. The wind made his head hurt, but they gained a lot.

He collected half a basket of moss alone.

Ye Luo said that this kind of moss is very delicious. Although it is relatively old, it has a little sweetness and tastes more delicious. It is more delicious than ordinary wild vegetables with a bitter taste. It is very good to go with barbecue.

Jian Mo smelled it and smelled a nice aroma, but it was indeed very rough. He estimated that only ruminants could digest it on earth.

But it doesn't matter, it's good to eat a small amount to supplement fiber and vitamins.

Taking care of the cubs, everyone walks for a while and rests for a while.

Jian Mo felt that today's collection process went smoothly, at least not as tiring as before.

They walked halfway up the mountain and occasionally heard the long howls of the orcs.

The orcs' screams were quite terrifying. Jian Mo guessed that they used this scream to drive away prey, so it sounded particularly oppressive and loud.

Qing Kuo listened to these sounds and said: "They should have a good harvest today."

Ye Luo: "This season, it is good to have hairy horned beasts to eat."

Qing Kuo: "I think so too, they have already It's winter, it's good to have enough food."

After saying that, the two looked at each other and smiled.

Jian Mo guessed from their smiles that the taste of hairy horned beasts might be average.

But this season, it's really good to have fresh meat.

The meat they store at home, because of the large temperature difference between day and night, will thaw slightly during the day and freeze again at night. Now it is no longer so fresh.

Although some meat is stored in caves and its condition is slightly more stable, it is still not as good as fresh meat in the end.

It's good to have fresh meat.

It was a rare occasion to come out. Everyone stayed in the wild until the afternoon, when the sun was approaching the top of the mountain, and then they shouted to each other to pass on signals and shouted to each other to go back.

The orcs came to pick them up.

Jian Mo watched a group of big cats and dogs running down the ridge. Almost every big cat was carrying a huge prey on its back. The harvest was very good at first glance.

Everyone was in a good mood, their furry faces were full of joy, and even their perked ears looked energetic.

The sub-orcs and their cubs climbed onto the backs of the orcs and climbed in front of the beast meat.

Jian Mo also climbed on top of the giant wolf, stretched out his arms to hug the giant wolf's neck, and behind him was the tied up hairy-horned beast.

The hairy horned beast is so huge that it almost covers half of the giant wolf's body.

Jian Mo was a little worried and whispered in the giant wolf's ear: "Is it too heavy?"

Carrying too much weight is not good for the spine.

The giant wolf turned his head with a smile in his eyes: "It's okay, I can still carry it."

Jian Mo reached out and touched his nose. The tip of his nose was warm and dry, and it seemed to be okay: "When you are tired and want to rest, you tell me, I can just walk down for a while."

Giant Wolf: "Okay."

When they said this at the end, Di Ya was already running with Qingkuo, Banjiu and Hairy Horned Beast on his back.

Behind Di Ya was Ban Ming. He was carrying the single Ye Luo and Hairy Horned Beast on his back, and he didn't seem to be struggling much.

The situation of the other orcs was similar, they all ran relatively easily and very fast. Even the way down the mountain did not hinder everyone's speed.

On the contrary, Jian Mo observed for a while and felt that the scenery on both sides "squeaked" backwards, and it also brought a sense of weightlessness when going down the mountain. It was a bit uncomfortable, so he hugged the giant wolf's neck and buried his face in his fur, closing his eyes. On the eyes.

It was already dark when they returned to the tribe.

Most people in the tribe have gone out to hunt today. The prey is easier to divide. Just divide one prey between two or three families, and it will be divided in two or three times.

The Wujiong family and the Qingkuo family share a large hairy-horned beast.

They carried it directly to the river and used knives to clean out the hairy-horned beasts.

Ban Ming held a knife in his hand and volunteered to skin the furry horned animal: "Now that we have a metal knife, peeling the skin is so smooth."

Qing Kuo: "You cut the meat into two pieces first, and we go back to cook. , you continue to process the remaining animal meat here."

Ban Ming: "Okay, dad, which piece do you want to eat today?"

It was already dark, and Jian Mo's eyes couldn't turn into animal pupils, and his vision was relatively poor. Sorry, I couldn't see the appearance of the hairy-horned beast clearly, so I had to ask: "Which piece of meat is tenderer?"

Ban Ming pointed with the back of his knife: "That's the two pieces on the back."

Jian Mo: "Otherwise, I'll cut them off. Two pieces? Let's fry them. After two days, the meat won't be as fresh anymore and the meat won't taste good."

Ban Ming agreed immediately and cut the meat quickly without handing it out.

He looked at his father, then at his father, and coughed lightly: "It's so late, do we two want to eat together?"

The kitten Banjiu, who had been squatting obediently next to him, his eyes lit up and he raised his round head. The round head looked at Jian Mo: "Meow, let's eat together?"

Qing Kuo patted Ban Ming's head: "You take advantage of Jian Mo's delicious cooking!"

Jian Mo said with a smile: "Let's eat together, I'll cook , everyone can help."

Ban Ming and Ban Jiu cheered immediately.

Chapter 52

It was too late for the sausages, so Jian Mo specially lit two oil lamps to facilitate cooking.

Under the dim yellow oil lamp, Qing Kuo was cutting the meat quickly.

Jian Mo was grinding seasoning powder and preparing side dishes. He has never eaten hairy horned animal meat, but from the smell, it should be fishy and needs to be marinated with more seasoning powder.

Qing Kuo looked on and said, "The seasoning powder you have here should be the most complete in the whole tribe."

Jian Mo looked at the row of seasoning powder on the shelf and rarely refuted: "It's really possible. Mainly because I collected some myself. Wu Jiong will carry it for me when he goes out. You will also carry it for me when you see it. As time goes by, I will accumulate more varieties."

Qing Kuo: "You can only use the seasoning powder in your hands. It's a bit of a waste to use it to its full potential."

Jian Moxiao: "That's why you have a good relationship with me."

Qing Kuo: "I thought the same way when I wasn't on good terms with you. How to cook the meat of the beast? "

Jian Mo: "Saute it in a dry pan. I heat up the stone and fry it quickly, and then keep it on the stone while it is still hot."

It is estimated that the meat of this quality needs to be stir-fried with heavy ingredients. It will taste better.

Jian Mo cooks very quickly. By the time Wu Jiong and the others finish processing the meat and carry it back in pottery jars, his meal is almost done.

A total of six people ate tonight. He and Qing Kuo made five dishes and one soup. The portions were large, but there were three adult orcs, so they should be able to finish them.

There were two dishes about the hairy horned beast. In addition to the dry pot of hairy horned beast meat, he also made the stewed pickled hairy horned beast offal, which he also cooked on the fire pit.

Ban Ming sniffed as soon as he entered the room: "It smells so good!"

Jian Mo took out the hot dishes and chopsticks: "Then you should eat more, don't leave any leftovers."

Ban Ming rolled up his sleeves: "Hey, you It's too much to look down on people. When I'm here, you still can't finish the meal?"

Everyone sat around the fire pit, and even the little cat Banjiu had a small bowl filled with meat pie that didn't have that strong taste.

Ban Ming used his chopsticks to pick up the dry pot hairy horned animal meat at the first time. After stuffing a large amount into his mouth, he exhaled: "It's delicious! Brother Jian Mo, you are worthy of your craftsmanship. This is my taste." The most delicious hairy horned animal meat I have ever tasted!"

Jian Mo took a bite of it dubiously. The fiber of the hairy horned animal meat was very thick, hard to chew, and a little tasteless, but the fishy and other odors were suppressed. I'm also getting angry, and it's really not too bad to eat.

Qing Kuo: "Jian Mo, your craftsmanship is really amazing. Everything is probably delicious."

Jian Mo said humbly: "No, I can't cook some dishes well."

While chatting, Jian Mo used his eyes to He observed Wu Jiong's expression from the corner of his eye.

There was fire in the fire pit, but they didn't light the oil lamp.

Wu Jiong's face was half hidden in the darkness. He controlled his brows from frowning, but the expression on his face was not very pleasant.

Maybe the orcs have a keen sense of smell and have particularly high requirements for food to some extent, so they don't like the meat of the hairy horned beast very much.

Jian Mo asked why they saw so many hairy horned beasts when they went to collect honey blocks before, and he had never tried to catch them.

It turns out I don't really like it.

Jian Mo felt a little amused when she saw Wu Jiong trying to forcefully swallow the meat.

Jian Mo glanced left and right and saw that Ban Ming and the others were not paying attention. He suddenly moved his shoulders and approached Wu Jiong and whispered, "If it tastes bad, give it to me."

Wu Jiong also whispered, "No need."

Jian Mo laughed. He picked up the meat of the hairy horned beast from his bowl and said, "I think the meat of the hairy horned beast is okay. You can eat something else."

Before Ban Ming and the others could react and make fun of him, Jian Mo had already taken away the meat and sat up straight. , as if nothing had happened.

Wu Jiong sat in the darkness, his ears suddenly turned red.

Qing Kuo found out and didn't say anything. Ban Ming and the others really didn't notice.

Ban Ming also said to Jian Mo: "Brother Jian Mo, the chopsticks of your tribe are really easy to use. Once you get used to using them, you can pick which piece you want. It's much easier than grabbing it with your hands."

Di Ya: "Hands" It's hot."

Ban Ming: "Yes! You can't get the dishes you want with a spoon."

Jian Mo: "Just eat more if you like."

The six of them finished the five dishes and one soup.

After having enough soup and rice, Ban Ming hugged Xiao Banjiu, whose belly was also swollen, and said goodbye to Jian Mo: "Brother Jian Mo, your cooking is so delicious. Let's go back first. You can come to our house for dinner next time."

Qing Kuo waved his hand: "You guys should go back to your house quickly. It's cold outside, so there's no need to send him off."

Banjiu shook his little tail on Ban Ming's shoulder: "Goodbye, brother Jian Mo."

Qing Kuo's family left quickly.

Jian Mo looked at the two large vats of meat placed in the yard and said to Wu Jiong, "This meat seems to be okay. Let's see what we do with it tomorrow?"

Wu Jiong glanced at it and did not refute, but in response to his sentence "The meat is still good." "Okay" doesn't mean much agreement.

Jian Mo smiled and pushed him: "Let's go, take a shower and go to bed first. I've been out for a day and I'm really exhausted."

Wu Jiong: "You wash first."

Jian Mo didn't refuse: "Then bring me more water. "

Last night, because she was in a happier mood, Jian Mo was more pleased with the two big vats of meat.

When she got up and cleaned up the next morning, Jian Mo smelled the fishy smell and felt it was a bit difficult to deal with.

Wu Jiong didn't like to eat this meat. He felt it was average and didn't like it much.

With so much meat, I wonder when I will eat it?

Should I switch it to someone else? But every family in the tribe has been given the meat of the hairy-horned beast, who will exchange it?

Jian Mo felt a little melancholy.

While basking in the sun on the open ground, Qing Kuo knew what he was thinking and said to him: "Didn't you say it can be made into bacon? It should taste better when made into bacon."

Jian Mo: "I guess it's not good, it's too thin. , there is no fat, and the bacon may lose flavor."

Others felt a little strange when they heard that Jian Mo didn't know how to make the meat of the hairy horned beast, and they all made suggestions:

"Fry the fish into pieces? It's definitely fine in chunks!"

"It seems like it can be marinated into bacon. When you want to eat it, you can slice it into thin slices and eat it with the stems."

"I think it's also okay to cook it in salt water."

"Hahaha, isn't your family famous for not being picky eaters? This method probably won't work for someone like Jian Mo who is a very good cook, right?"

Jian Mo thanked everyone for their suggestions and said, "I'd better make it into meat." Intestine."

As soon as he said this, almost everyone's ears pricked up.

Qing Kuo: "What kind of sausage?"

Jian Mo: "Haven't you done this before? You stuff meat into casings to make sausage."

Qing Kuo asked doubtfully: "Isn't that bacon? Didn't you mean Don't you want to make bacon?"

Jian Mo shook his head: "It's not bacon, it's meat sausage. I have to make it into minced meat first, season it and then stuff it into the casings."

Jian Mo thought about starch sausage before, but then he thought about it, now that starch is so precious, how can there be any? Can the excess starch be made into starch sausage? Let's add more meat and make it pure meat sausage.

Everyone had nothing to do. When they heard that there was something fresh to eat, they became interested and expressed their desire to watch.

Jian Mo simply took them home and planned to process the meat.

Jian Mo: "It's a bit difficult to cut it just by hand. I want to take it to the stone mortar and pound it directly into minced meat. Although it's a bit hard to carry, it's much better than cutting it at home."

Qing Kuo watched him put the meat on his back He put it in the basket and said, "What's so difficult about this? I'll ask Ban Ming to come over and help

carry the meat." Qing Kuo went out and shouted outside, and Ban Ming quickly brought the young orcs over to help carry the meat.

Seeing the crowd, Jian Mo went to the cave to get the fat meat that had been frozen before.

He wanted to use the fat meat to make oil, but he had been busy and didn't have time. Now he just used it to make sausages.

Everyone gathered around Jian Mo to the stone mortar and asked, "What should we do next?"

Jian Mo looked at it and said, "Wash the stone mortar first."

Without Jian Mo having to do anything, the people around him immediately went to fill the water and quickly brought it over. He cleaned the stone mortar with hay and said, "What next?"

Jian Mo said, "Then put the meat in and grind it into minced meat."

In fact, this step can also be done by hand, but it is too troublesome to do it by hand, so it is better to bring it directly to the stone mortar.

Jian Mo took out the fat and lean meat from the basket, put it into the stone mortar, and poured fruit wine and seasoning powder into it: "Just pound it."

The orcs who came to watch volunteered: "Brother Jian Mo, you guys Let's take a rest first."

The young orcs had plenty of strength, and they quickly stepped on the big wooden pole and pounded the meat inside.

Jian Mo stood by with a big wooden stick. Every time they pounded it, he would stick the big wooden stick in and turn the meat inside.

When flipping, the main thing is to have sharp eyesight, quick hands, and tacit cooperation.

Everyone watched for a while and said they understood it, so they arranged for someone to take turns with Jian Mo.

While flipping, Jian Mo's hands were almost numb from waving the wooden stick.

Now that someone is replacing him, he happens to be happy to have others help him.

After pounding for a while, Jian Mo signaled everyone to stop, then put his clean hands in and picked out the fascia from the minced meat.

The hairy horned beast's meat fiber was very thick and there was a lot of fascia inside. He picked out half of the pot in a short time.

Qing Kuo looked over and asked: "Are these going to be thrown away?"

Jian Mo couldn't bear to part with it: "Give it to Jiu Jiu to eat, Jiu Jiu shouldn't dislike it."

Qing Kuo: "It's good to have a flying winged beast."

After picking up the fascia, Jane Don't ask others to continue pounding.

Soon, the pieces of meat underneath turned into minced meat so delicate that it was hard to even pick it up.

Jian Mo used a large spoon to scoop the minced meat into a wooden basin, then placed it in the snow to cool down, and then pounded the second batch of meat.

The others cooperated tacitly and quickly continued pounding.

Jian Mo took the casings over and asked everyone to help clean them, scrape off the grease, and then stuff the minced meat into the casings.

Later, when his family ran out of casings, others took casings from their own homes and brought them to him.

These are things that people are used to doing, and there is not much difficulty in doing them.

Soon, batches of minced meat turned into pure meat sausages - Jian Mo was not willing to add starch.

Qing Kuo looked at these pink sausages and asked: "Then, do you want to dry them?"

Jian Mo said with a smile: "No, there is no need to dry them. After they are cooked, just freeze them."

Qing Kuo was a little bit It's hard to imagine: "Won't it go bad? And why should it be cooked and frozen?"

Jian Mo actually didn't know for sure. According to his experience, sausages are better if they are cooked and frozen.

He could only say: "Let's try it first."

So everyone took out the big pot and made a fire to cook the sausages on the spot.

The sausages were put into the boiling water one by one, and they were quickly cooked until they solidified, turning into the pink sausages that Jian Mo was familiar with.

Jian Mo took one out and cut it gently.

Because of the fat added, the sausage has a shiny luster after being cut. When you pinch it gently, the juice will overflow, bringing with it the unique aroma of meat, and it smells quite good.

He took a bite and found that the taste of the sausage was quite familiar, especially the peppercorn powder inside, which made the sausage look a bit like black pepper sausage.

Very delicious.

Jian Mo's eyes lit up after eating.

He thought he would never be able to eat food like sausages in his life, but he didn't expect to eat it so quickly. It was more delicious and chewy than he imagined.

Others observed his expression and couldn't help but ask: "How is it?"

Jian Mo came back to his senses and said with a smile: "You will know after you try it."

He distributed the cooked sausage to everyone, and everyone also You're welcome, and started eating it directly:

"Hey, it's different from what I thought. It's not as chewy as the hairy horned beast meat."

"It's already been ground into minced meat, how can it still be chewy? But it's quite good It's chewy. I didn't expect the minced meat to be chewy and juicy.

"It's very fragrant! Don't you think it's particularly fragrant? The other methods of making meat don't have this flavor,

right ?" I thought it was completely different. No wonder I have to put so much effort into making this sausage.

"This is so fresh. Do you have any other ways to eat it?"

"I have to make some at home. It's so delicious. " It's like hairy horned animal meat."

Jian Mo listened to what they said and let them do whatever they wanted.

Anyway, everyone was watching the whole process, and he didn't hide anything.

Qing Kuo looked at Jian Mo and said, "This is really delicious. Please keep the recipe a secret and try not to spread it to other tribes?"

Jian Mo nodded: "I have no objection."

Everyone agreed one after another.

Although several nearby tribes get along well, each tribe has its own secret recipe.

The tribe with more secret recipes will be more prosperous, and it really shouldn't be spread to other tribes.

Jian Mo doesn't care, he just listens to the tribe.

After everyone tasted it, he gave a few sausages to everyone involved in making the sausages and then put them away.

The two large vats of meat turned into two large vats of sausages, which looked much more tempting.

Unfortunately, he only had less than half of the pepper powder left, so he had to find time to quickly go to other tribes to exchange for some.

Everyone made sausages for almost a day.

In the evening, Jian Mo said mysteriously to Wu Jiong who had just returned: "I'll make you something new to eat today."

Wu Jiong had already heard someone say: "Meat sausage?"

Jian Mo smiled: "Why are you so well-informed? But Instead of eating boiled food at night, eat it grilled."

It had been a long time since they had simply eaten grilled food. Jian Mo placed the big stone slab above the fire pit, smeared it with animal oil, and then placed the prepared animal meat, sausages, stems, etc. on it to bake.

This way of eating is relatively simple and convenient. You can eat it while grilling and it will not let it cool easily.

The meat sausage has been cooked and is the fastest to bake. You only need to bake the tiger skin a little and you can eat it.

Jian Mo specially found the skewers that he had cut before, skewered a piece of meat sausage and handed it to Wu Jiong: "Try it quickly, it's completely different from the barbecue we usually eat."

Wu Jiong took a bite - —The chewy texture, plump taste, juicy juice and a hint of chili pepper flavor completely exploded in his mouth.

He looked at the sausage: "The meat of the hairy-horned beast?"

Jian Mo was a little proud: "How about it, it tastes much better this way, right?"

Wu Jiong took another bite: "It's very delicious. If I had known earlier This way of eating, the hairy horned beasts in the tribe will probably be eaten."

Jian Mo happily continued to grill him sausages: "I know you like it, eat two more."

Jian Mo grilled the sausages. Place it on the edge of the stone slab on Wujiong's side to avoid being scorched.

After the tiger skin is baked from the meat sausage, the aroma comes out and penetrates into people's noses.

At this time, Jian Mo suddenly heard the sound of swallowing.

He thought it was Wu Jiong at first, but soon realized that Wu Jiong couldn't swallow.

He looked up towards the window sill, and sure enough he saw several furry heads. The owner of the heads seemed to have noticed that he was looking over, and quickly shrank his neck and hid under the window sill.

Needless to say, the little guys from the tribe must have come to watch.

Jian Mo stood up and walked outside the door. He saw Jiang Xing and a few little guys squatting outside, and waved to them: "Come in and eat."

The kids quickly shook their heads: "Brother Jian Mo, no need, we are cooking at home." There is not enough

food in the tribe, and it is not polite to eat at other people's homes. The adults do not allow children to eat at other people's homes, especially they are not allowed to eat at Wu Jiong's house.

Seeing them like this, Jian Mo said with a smile: "Your food is probably not ready yet. Come and try our food first."

The cubs originally wanted to refuse, but the smell of grilled sausages was so fragrant that their faces He showed a hesitant look.

Jian Mo rubbed the heads of the children next to him: "All your parents helped me make sausages today. Come in and try some. You won't get scolded." The little ones thanked them in a low voice: "Thank you, brother Jian

Mo."

After bringing them into the house, Jian Mo broke off the tip of the top of the skewer, then skewered the sausages and handed them to them: "It's a bit hot, eat slowly."

The cubs thanked them again, grabbed the sausages with both hands and ate them, as if A little squirrel.

Jian Mo knew that they were like this because of their restraint, but she still couldn't help but smile on her face.

The cubs went home after eating.

Jian Mo really liked feeding the cubs and didn't take it to heart.

The next day, parents came to my door one after another and said they wanted to learn how to make sausages.

Jian Mo wondered: "When I was doing it yesterday, weren't you all helping? After watching the whole process, you should be able to do it."

Zhou Fu said with a bitter face: "We also thought we could, so we went to Shijiu with the materials early in the morning I made it there, but I didn't expect the taste to be completely different from what you made." Jian Mo thought for a while

: "Did you add fat? Without the fat, the sausage is not very tasty."

Everyone nodded: "Let it go."

Jian Mo: "Is it three fat and seven thin?"

He knew what he was doing yesterday, so he just grabbed the fat meat and put it into the pile of animal meat. He forgot to remind everyone of the specific ratio.

Sure enough, Zhou Fu and others looked at each other with big eyes and small eyes. They really didn't pay attention to this matter.

Jian Mo added: "The fat meat has a bit of a peculiar smell. I blanched it with spices and salt powder before freezing it. The fat meat you use may not have been blanched, so the taste may be different." Jian

Moyi He talked about several small knowledge points in his tone, all of which the sub-orcs had not noticed before.

After finishing speaking, Jian Mo, who was quite thirsty, said to them: "It shouldn't be a big problem now. Just follow the steps I took yesterday."

The sub-orcs nodded repeatedly and went to work again.

Jian Mo thought that nothing happened, so she went to do her own thing.

Unexpectedly, in the afternoon, the sub-orcs came to the door again, this time with materials for making sausages: "No matter how we make the meat sausages, they don't taste as good as yours. How about we just exchange the materials with you?" "

Jian Mo didn't expect them to go from making to giving up so quickly, so he hesitated: "We don't have that many sausages at home."

The sub-orcs immediately said, "Then let's start with you, and you can make some more.

" Mo: "..."

The orcs all thought about it: "How about you provide the technology, we provide the materials, and make another batch of sausages. After they are done, we will take half on each side?"

Jian Mo felt that this was a bit of an advantage and did not agree. .

The sub-orcs pressed him hard and asked, "How can we take advantage? If we say we take advantage, we take advantage."

"That's right, Jian Mo, the sausage you made is so fragrant, we are so greedy for it, why don't you make another batch? " ."

Jian Mo finally failed to resist the persuasion: "Then I will provide the spices and technology, and then you will obey my command."

The sub-orcs cheered, saying that there was no problem.

Jian Mo's cooking skills are much higher than those of the sub-orcs in the tribe. Using the same production methods and processes, the sausages produced under his command are more than one level of delicious.

In the end, everyone came to ask him to help make sausages. It was not until his spice powder was used up that the trend of making sausages in the tribe temporarily stopped.

Jian Mo's accumulated sausages reached the entire cave. Because there were so many, he couldn't even put them in a big tank. He could only put hay under the cave and put the sausages there.

There is so much food, placed so far away, Jian Mo is worried.

Jian Mo rubbed her wrist and said to Wu Jiong: "I've asked the tribe's cubs to help me patrol the cave, but it's still not safe. I'm thinking about taking the meat sausage to another tribe to change it. Are you coming back with a batch of supplies? "

Although meat sausage is delicious, you can't eat it every day for a whole year. They can't consume that much sausage.

Wu Jiong nodded: "What do you want to change?"

Jian Mo said with some melancholy: "Let's change the spice powder and honey powder first. I have almost run out of spice powder for making sausages these days, and even more pepper powder. It's gone. We must replenish a batch as soon as possible."

Wu Jiong: "Then let's go to the Mengshui Tribe to exchange them. They have abundant supplies."

Chapter 53: My old friend

Jian Mo's family has too many sausages. It would be a pity if they spoiled at home.

They finally decided to go back to the Mengshui tribe and exchange things with the people of the Mengshui tribe.

The sausages are considered their family's personal property, and when they change things, they change them themselves.

The two finally decided to take the Winged Beast out.

The flying-winged beast can fly high and carry a lot of weight on its back. It can fly past the Mengshui Tribe faster than Wu Jiong carrying sausages on his back.

On the day of the official departure, early in the morning, Jian Mo gave the Winged Beast a whole bowl of sausages for breakfast. He also mixed it with the leftover whey and dried moss from the milk of the Packing Beast to make cheese, giving it a delicious meal.

The Winged Beast chirped and sang while eating breakfast, and seemed very satisfied with the meal.

Even though it was full, when Jian Mo and Wu Jiong put the sausages on its back, it couldn't help but blink its big black eyes and look back hard, its nose twitching slightly, and saliva was still flowing from its mouth. The sides fell off.

Jian Mo lightly patted its fat butt: "Why is it so worthless?"

The winged beast said: "Ugh."

Jian Mo had no choice but to grab another handful of sausages and handed it to the winged beast's mouth: "Hold it slowly and slowly. " Eat, there will be nothing left after eating."

The winged beast became happy again and rubbed its head against Jian Mo.

Jian Mo was so frightened that he kept hiding back, fearing that it would rub its saliva on him.

The winged beast was still thinking about the sausage in his hand, so it moved its big head towards him and chased after him.

One hid and the other chased. The two interacted for a long time before the flying winged beast took the sausage into its mouth.

Wu Jiong patted the flying winged beast on its neck: "We are ready to go."

The flying winged beast flapped the wings of its front legs: "Chirp--"

They flew directly to the Mengshui tribe.

Because their characteristics were very obvious, the men on patrol from the Mengshui Tribe had seen them a long time ago and did not stop them. Instead, they raised their hands to greet them enthusiastically: "Doctor Jian Mo, Chief Wujiong, are you here? What good things have you brought here today? "

Jian Mo said loudly: "Eat - I plan to come over to your place to change some seasonings -"

The patrol was even more happy: "Then you fall to the open space, I will inform the people of the tribe right away!" "

Mengshui tribe ! The clan leader Yun Long quickly brought his people over after hearing the news.

The clan leader with fox eyes was still smiling: "Long time no see. I heard that you and the Jintuo tribe have exchanged a lot of metals. Congratulations."

Wu Jiong: "Your tribe has had a lot of metals for a long time, but we have just There's nothing worthy of congratulations."

Yun Lun patted Wu Jiong's shoulder: "Your tribe is getting better and better, why don't you deserve congratulations? Come on, I've given you permission to set up a stall here. We've informed everyone, do you need any help?"

Jian Mo was polite to him and said, "It would be great if you could build a bonfire for us to grill the sausages."

Yun Luan could already smell the aroma: "These sausages. Isn't it cooked?"

Jian Mo: "Yes, but it tastes better when roasted over a fire."

There are some people in the Mengshui tribe who are close friends with Jian Mo. I heard that there is something delicious, and Yun Luan has no intention of objecting. , everyone enthusiastically came over with firewood and lit a fire next to where they set up their stall.

Jian Mo and Wu Jiong originally brought wooden skewers, but now that there was a fire, they directly used the skewers to skewer the sausages and put them on the fire to roast.

The meat sausages grilled over an open fire cook faster, and the tiger skin bursts out in a few seconds. At the same time, the aroma of the fat mixed with the meat wafts far away.

Those present were all orcs and sub-orcs with a keen sense of smell, and their mouths were watering when they smelled this fragrance.

Jian Mo pulled out the dagger with a smile, cut the roasted sausage into sections, placed it on a large earthenware plate, and then held the earthenware plate, indicating that those who wanted to eat could take it themselves.

No one was polite to him, they just reached out and each took a piece and stuffed it into their mouths.

As soon as the barbecued sausage enters your mouth, the fragrant grilled sausage explodes with fat. It is fragrant and hot. It is different from any food you have eaten before.

The people of the Mengshui tribe were surprised:

"What is this made of? How come I have never tasted this before?"

"I have never eaten food with this kind of taste before. Is there a new beast in your tribe?"

"It's delicious! Doctor Jian Mo, your craftsmanship is really good."

Jian Mo answered their questions with a smile: "It's not a new beast, it's a new method."

Yun You ate the sausage: "You want to change What to order? Cloth? Animal skin?"

Jian Mo shook his head: "No, we just want to change the seasonings. The most important ones are pepper powder and honey. "

Another Asian beast said: "Hey, it's a pity that my pepper powder just got moldy and I lost a batch. "Do you want the bark of the Mingxiang tree?

" Mo feels a bit like cinnamon, but the taste is stronger than cinnamon.

Jian Mo nodded: "Yes, it will be needed when stewing meat."

The sub-orc man immediately said: "I'll go home to get it."

Seeing that someone went home to get seasonings, others followed suit. They were worried about the sausages. It was so popular that Jian Mo's sausages were quickly replaced.

Anyway, as for seasonings, use more if you have them at home, and less if you don't have them. If you don't have any, you can go out and pick some.

It's important to change to some delicious sausages first.

Jian Mo changed the seasoning quite smoothly.

They don't have a fixed price here. They all look at the quality of the products from both parties and can exchange them after a little discussion.

Soon, Jian Mo had changed to most of the baskets of various spices, and there was also a large bag of the pepper powder that he was obsessed with.

Just when he was exchanging fragrant leaves with a sub-orc, he heard Wu Jiong shouting next to him: "Brother Min Dang."

Jian Mo rarely heard Wu Jiong call someone brother, and sometimes he would call Qing Kuo and Di Ya. Brother, most of the time I am in a state of no address.

It was a rather unusual situation for Wu Jiong to suddenly call Ren Ge, so he subconsciously glanced up.

Standing in front of him was a tall sub-orc with a sharp and sharp appearance. He looked quite handsome, but there was a bit of fatigue in his brows and eyes.

Jian Mo looked at him a few more times and felt that he looked a bit similar to many people from the Riverside Tribe.

May be related.

Jian Mo smiled at the sub-orc named Min Dang, quickly exchanged the fragrant leaves with the sub-orc, and handed the tray over: "Brother Min Dang, try it quickly."

Min Dang greeted: "Wu Jiong, Jian Mo Doctor Mo. "

Wu Jiong: "How are you doing?"

Min Dang smiled slightly and said, "Fortunately, the hardest time is over. I'm getting better now."

As he spoke, Mindang handed over a soft bag woven from grass stems: "These are the pepper stamens I collected before. Can you see if I can exchange them?"

Jian Mo took the bag and could smell the tangy fragrance coming out of the bag before opening it. When he opened it, he saw that the pepper pistils were very dry and well preserved.

He gently squeezed it with his hands, and the pepper stamens broke with a sound, and a stronger fragrance floated out, making Jian Mo want to sneeze.

Jian Mo said in surprise: "The quality of these peppers is really good. Should I replace them all with sausages?"

Min Dang nodded: "It won't be of any use if I leave them here."

Jian Mo didn't notice the implication of his words and said casually: "The quality is so good. Okay, Jiao Rui, I have to give you a basket of sausages. Brother Mindang, let Wu Jiong carry it for you."

Wu Jiong: "Can you change it here alone?"

Jian Mo said casually. : "What's wrong with this? We're all so familiar with the people of the Mengshui tribe." The people waiting to change the sausages heard their words and booed: "It's just that we won't eat Dr. Jian Mo." thought of it

.

What, Jian Mo smiled at Wu Jiong, leaned slightly closer to his ear and whispered: "Don't worry, I won't be poached by them."

Wu Jiong nodded: "Then I will send it over."

Min Dang thanked: "Thank you, Thank you for your hard work."

Jian Mo looked up and smiled: "We should thank you. The quality of this jiaorui is so good. Brother Min Dang, please wait, I will give you this bag."

Min Dang rarely showed a trace . Smile: "No, I'll give it to you. I still have a lot of bags like this at home."

Jian Mo smiled at the person: "You are so handy, so I'm welcome. I really like this bag."

Since it is . There is really no need to be too polite when calling Wu Jiong brother. Maybe there will be many more moments of dealing with him in the future.

Jian Mo thought so and urged Wu Jiong to send the sausages to Mindang quickly, while he stayed here and continued to exchange for spice powder.

The pepper pistils he wanted most had already been exchanged. He slowed down in replacing the meat sausages, mainly replacing them with various sweet powders.

Just when Jian Mo was busy, Wu Jiong came back, followed by a half-year-old child.

He is really a half-grown child, a little older than Jiang Xing, but younger than Ban Ming and the others. He looks like a junior high school student on Earth. He is taller but has a thin body. He wears a big animal skin hat and has two eyes. Godless, looks like he has no energy.

Both orcs and sub-orcs have an animal side. Some people may be impulsive and irritable, but they will never be in such a sickly state unless they are sick.

Jian Mo's hand paused and he asked about Wu Jiong's situation with his eyes.

Wu Jiong said: "This is Brother Mindang's cub, his name is Ranwu, he is a little orc."

Jian Mo's eyes were even more surprised that he was actually a little orc. When he met the child's dull eyes, Jian Mo smiled: " Nice to meet you."

The little orc Ranwu said, his voice a little hoarse: "Doctor Jian Mo."

After saying that, he said, "I'm not sick."

Jian Mo asked him to sit down and stuffed another one into the oven. Before he could break the sausage into pieces, he passed over and said with his eyes bent: "Try the sausage we made. I'll change the spices for the others first. We'll talk about it later."

Ranwu seemed quite polite, although a little I was weak, but I stood there for a moment, thanked him, took the sausage, and sat next to him.

Jian Mo glanced at his figure with the corner of her eyes and saw him sitting down, his legs as thin as a hemp pole.

There must be something wrong with this little cub. Is it a physical problem or a psychological problem?

While exchanging spices with others, Jian Mo was thinking about how to ask later.

This batch of meat sausages was really popular, and soon someone came over for the second time, bringing spices collected from home and planning to exchange some more.

Jian Mo hurriedly exchanged with others, and the exchange was quickly completed.

Yun Rong originally wanted to come over and chat with them, but when he saw Ranwu was there, he smiled gently and said hello, and then deliberately made room for them to chat.

Jian Mo looked at Ranwu who was a little cramped next to him and said with a smile: "It's a little cold outside, how about we find a shelter from the wind?"

Ranwu nodded: "Follow me."

Jian Mo saw that he was willing to speak, and patted him gently. He patted him on the shoulder and asked, "Are you feeling uncomfortable in any way?"

Ranwu was silent for a moment and shook his head.

Jian Mo looked at Wu Jiong, who gave him a helpless look.

It seemed that Wu Jiong couldn't ask. Jian Mo thought to herself that this little kid's mouth was really tight, but he was not in the right state, so there must be something wrong.

Ranwu quickly took them to the place where the flying winged beast was tied.

Usually no one comes here, and with the Winged Beast blocking it, it is indeed a place that is sheltered from the wind and convenient for talking.

Jian Mo glanced at Ranwu, this little kid was quite clever.

Jian Mo did not speak to Ranwu directly, but said to Wu Jiong, "Can you bring over the spices we exchanged?"

Wu Jiong nodded and left quickly.

After sending Wu Jiong away, Jian Mo said to Ranwu: "I am a doctor. Do you really not want to tell me anything? Your father and the others should be very worried about you."

Jian Mo's eyes were very gentle, and Ranwu and him After looking at each other for a while, he gently took off the hat on his head.

The top of his head was sparse, and a large piece of scalp was exposed.

Jian Mo was stunned for a moment. This handsome cub actually lost his hair at a young age!

No wonder he was so silent.

Chapter 54 Visiting Relatives

As an adult, Jian Mo restrained his thoughts very well. When the boy looked over, he had already returned to seriousness and seriousness.

Ranwu glanced at him twice and silently put his hat back on, his ears a little red.

It was obvious that the boy had some inferiority complex about his situation.

"Wait a minute." Jian Mo called to Ranwu, "I may need to take a look at your animal form and judge your current situation based on your animal form."

Now, Ranwu was even more hesitant.

Jian Mo patted Ranwu on the shoulder and said softly: "There are only two of us here, it's okay."

Ranwu looked at him, as if judging whether he was trustworthy. After a while, he pointed at the flying wing beast. Behind: "I'll go over there and change."

Jian Mo nodded: "Go ahead."

Ranwu quickly transformed back into his beast form with the help of the flying winged beast.

It was a fox. The fur all over its body was almost silver-white, except for the hair around the eyes, which had a little black spots.

Unlike ordinary foxes, although he is big, he looks very thin, as if there is only a handful of bones left in his body.

When he sat down obediently, there was an unspeakable melancholy in his body.

This was the first time Jian Mo felt melancholy in someone's animal form. Such a melancholy little fox looked even more pitiful.

Just as Jian Mo guessed, there was something wrong with his hair when he was in human form, and there was also something wrong with his hair when he was in animal form.

The hair is worse and sparser than the hair, and you can even see the pinkish flesh underneath.

The winged beast was really curious and looked at the fox with its two big eyes.

The fox couldn't stand its gaze, so it grinned and showed its fangs, which was a bit fierce.

The flying-winged beast was immediately frightened and turned around: "Hey."

The fox looked at Jian Mo.

Jian Mo acted more seriously and stepped forward to check on the fox.

After a while, Jian Mo said: "I don't have the tools at hand, so I can't find out more, but you must be malnourished, your hair is very rough, the roots of your hair are very brittle, and you don't have much muscle in your body. You don't look in good condition." "

Ranwu seemed to feel better when he saw how serious he was, and asked hoarsely: "Is it because of malnutrition in that camp that I lost my hair?"

Jian Mo pressed Ranwu's paw: "I'm not sure at the moment, but your condition. If it's so bad, you must start with nutritional supplements. From today on, do you have trouble eating? Do you feel like you don't want to eat, can't eat, or even vomit after eating

? As he asked, he thought of the stray cats and dogs he had rescued before.

He has rescued many stray cats and dogs, and they all have their own problems. Some of them are like little foxes, shedding hair badly.

There are also various reasons why stray cats and dogs lose hair. They lose their hair due to external forces, suffer from skin diseases, or suffer from other diseases...Physiological and psychological factors can cause them to lose hair.

Among them are half-grown kittens and puppies. Their hair loss may be due to the fact that during the growth process, the previous batch of hair has already been replaced, and the next batch of hair has not yet grown out. At this stage, they encountered problems and the hair should grow out. If the hair doesn't grow, it will fall out extra hard.

Jian Mo didn't know what was going on with the little fox, orcs were not the same as beasts.

His mind is not clear right now, and he has to go back to think about what the problem is.

Jian Mo exchanged a few words with the little fox.

The little fox had already started talking, and then he started to talk a little bit about everything.

Jian Mo saw that his original personality was not very gloomy. Maybe it was just a change in his life that made him not in a good state, so he felt a little more relaxed.

After the exchange between the two parties, Jian Mo told the little fox: "The best situation now is that you are going through the moulting period. For some reasons, the new hair is not growing very smoothly. I guess there is insufficient food intake. You first Try eating more and sleeping more, and observe for a while to see if the situation gets better."

The little fox nodded, but looked a little disappointed.

Jian Mo then said, "I don't have any medicine on hand right now. I will prepare some medicine for you when I go back and send it over."

Some medicines may only have a placebo effect, but for patients with psychological problems, placebos are also very useful.

After Jian Mo finished explaining everything to the little fox, his mouth felt a little dry, and then he said, "There are some things I need to explain to your parents, okay?"

He just went through the motions and asked a routine question, but he didn't expect the other person to ask. The little fox gently shook his head: "Doctor Jian Mo, can you not tell my father and the others? They are already upset enough, and I don't want them to know."

Jian Mo raised his head: "Don't they know you are losing hair? "

Little Fox: "I didn't let them know. I usually use my human form, and they can't tell when I'm wearing a hat."

Hearing this, Jian Mo didn't know what to say, so she could only pat the Little Fox's leg.

Sensible children are indeed more likely to have ideas and problems.

Jian Mo said: "Then I will go back to the tribe to prepare some medicine, and then I will come to you in two days, or ask Wu Jiong to come to you."

Soon, Jian Mo and Wu Jiong said goodbye to the Mengshui tribe and rode the flying wing beast to the riverside tribe. Fly away.

After flying for a while, Jian Mo asked Wu Jiong: "What's going on at the Ranwu family? Ranwu looks very thin, and Brother Mindang looks very tired. The two of them are not in good condition."

Wu Jiong hugged her tightly. Jian Mo in the book: "Brother Mindang's partner was accidentally attacked by a bullhorn while hunting last year and was seriously injured. After raising him for more than half a year, he finally managed to save his life, but his front leg was lame." Jian

Mo: "Ah?"

Wu Jiong: "The people of the Mengshui tribe actually take care of them. However, the orc who is the backbone of their family is lame. The family is definitely not as good as other families."

Jian Mo knows why Ranwu's condition is so bad. , there has been a major change in the family, and you may also be facing a shortage of supplies.

This sensible young man probably kept all his worries in his heart. If supplies were insufficient, he might quietly give the food to his two fathers.

Under the circumstances of great physical and mental stress, it seems that it is not incomprehensible for him to lose hair.

Back in the tribe, Jian Mo was still thinking about Ranwu.

He took out the beast of burden cheese he had made before, and took out half of the remaining honey cubes. Then he also took some meat products such as dried meat and sausages, as well as a pile of grass and tea. The bark is intended to be used as medicine and sent to Ranwu.

While packing, Jian Mo was thinking again, Ranwu's condition was already so bad, could a mere dietary supplement really help him recover?

Even if you rescue a kitten or puppy, simply changing the diet will not have much effect.

Thinking of this, Jian Mo took back her hand and called Wu Jiong next to her: "You said before that Brother Mindang is the child of your father's brother?"

Wu Jiong nodded.

Jian Mo: "Actually, Brother Mindang should be considered your brother? This is already a very close relationship, just like Di Ya?"

Wu Jiong: "Yes, when I was a child, Brother Mindang and the others took me to play. After Brother Mindang's friend had an accident, I also went to deliver supplies several times."

Jian Mo knew their relationship well and suddenly asked, "Do you have the habit of visiting relatives here?"

Wu Jiong was stunned.

Jian Mo explained: "In our place, people with such close relationships are considered relatives. Sometimes it is very common to visit relatives' homes and stay for a period of time."

Wu Jiong guessed what he meant: "Do you want to Let Ranwu come live?"

Jian Mo: "Ranwu may need to get out of that environment and recover, but I can't guarantee it. There is no way to check it now, so we can only rule out the most likely problems first."

Wu Jiong understood what Jian Mo meant and thought for a moment: "Should I pick up Ranwu and stay at our house for a while tomorrow?"

Jian Mo nodded and explained: "I think it's a pity for Ranwu. His problem is very harmful to the orcs." It is a very serious problem. If it cannot be treated well, it may have a great impact on his life."

Wu Jiong patted Jian Mo's shoulder, hugged him again, and pressed his forehead against his: "Why are you like this? Okay?"

Jian Mo reached out and grabbed Wu Jiong's wrist: "The main reason is that the kid is so pitiful and we have enough supplies, so I just thought I could help him. If the supplies weren't enough, I wouldn't have sent him. Such kindness."

Wu Jiong said to him again: "I will pick up Ranwu tomorrow and arrange an empty house for Ranwu to live in."

Jian Mo: "That would be great, I am not used to having one at home. Stranger."

Wu Jiong: "When you first came here, weren't you used to living with me?"

Jian Mo looked up at Wu Jiong and rolled his eyes: "You had already moved to the first floor. He's polite, considerate, and handsome. I'm just not used to it, so I have to get over it. Speaking of which, are you sure you can take Ranwu over tomorrow? "

Wu Jiong: "It's not a big problem. Brother Min Dang is also worried. "Ranwu's situation."

The cub is so thin, even if they don't know that he is losing hair, the parents can't help but worry.

It's just a matter of whether it's revealed or not.

Jian Mo: "Then I'll pack up the empty house that Ranwu will live in tomorrow first."

Wu Jiong: "I'll clean it up with you, and then I'll pick you up after the cleaning. You have to tell the people in the tribe in advance." Jian Mo

: Mo reminded: "In that case, why don't you talk to Ban Ming and the others and tell them not to talk nonsense? It would be better if you can bring Ranwu to play with you."

Wu Jiong nodded: "They know the importance of serious matters."

Second Early in the morning, Wu Jiong went to pick up people.

At noon, Wu Jiong drove the flying-winged beast and led Ranwu back to the tribe.

Jian Mo didn't expect them to come back so quickly.

When Ranwu got off the flying-winged beast, he still had the fresh feeling of riding the flying-winged beast, and his eyes were a little more curious and less lifeless.

It seems that leaving a familiar and oppressive environment does help.

Jian Mo raised her hand to greet Ranwu: "Ranwu."

After Ranwu left the Mengshui tribe, he looked a little shy: "Brother Jian Mo."

Jian Mo smiled: "Come here quickly, let's go home and have tea."

Jian Mo Mo's attitude was very warm and he seemed a bit familiar. The two of them naturally became close without Ranwu having to think too hard.

Ranwu breathed a sigh of relief.

Jian Mo took Ranwu and Wu Jiong home to drink sweet pepper drink, then found some soap and asked Ranwu to take a hot bath. He went to rest first and came over for dinner in the evening.

Ranwu seemed very well-behaved and obeyed everything.

Seeing how well-behaved he was, Jian Mo couldn't help but rub his head.

After Ranwu left, Jian Mo asked Wu Jiong: "Did it go well to pick up people today?"

Wu Jiong: "It went well. Brother Mindang said that after two days, he will send a batch of supplies. I agreed. "

It seems that this sub-orc is also a strong person, Jian Mo: "That's okay, let's take it less when the time comes." Wu Jiong nodded: "I will hunt more prey in the next two days." This site has no

information.

Chapter 55:

Very diligent in collecting sap to burn the dock.

Jian Mo felt that he was weak and needed more rest.

However, he always followed Jian Mo to help with whatever he could, including but not limited to cleaning the animal shed, watering, fertilizing, collecting firewood, etc.

Jian Mo has never been with such a quiet and well-behaved boy. If it was out of sympathy at first, now she just likes this boy.

At night, Jian Mo lay on the giant wolf and played with his ears: "Are you going to go hunting tomorrow? Why don't you take Ranwu with you? It doesn't seem like it's okay to let him hang around the house all the time. "

The giant wolf said in a low voice: "Is he feeling better?"

Jian Mo: "It looks better to the naked eye. Although he is still losing hair, the hair is long in winter, and a little tugging can cover a lot of it."

The animal form of Ranwu followed. His father, Min Dang, was also a common beast in the riverside tribe.

There are about a dozen fox-shaped orcs in the Riverside tribe, including red foxes, white foxes, and flowered foxes. If Ranwu follows them out, they should be able to blend in easily.

The giant wolf's ears twitched and came out of Jian Mo's hand: "I'll ask him tomorrow."

Jian Mo grabbed the wolf's ears again: "Then ask him. If he doesn't want to go, you can persuade him."

The giant wolf was silent for a moment . , and finally agreed.

The next day, Jian Mo also told Ranwu about the incident.

Ranwu looked a little nervous, but he still mustered up the courage to agree.

Jian Mo patted him on the shoulder and said, "Wu Jiong and the others are your elders, it doesn't matter."

Ranwu nodded nervously and expectantly: "Thank you, Brother Jian Mo."

All the young orcs in the tribe shouted this . Jian Mo, Ranwu stayed here for several days and changed his name accordingly.

Jian Mo took back his hand and encouraged with a smile: "Then eat more breakfast, so as not to have no energy for hunting later."

The father of Ranwu, Min Dang, is a sub-orc from the Riverside Tribe. The young and middle-aged orcs from the Riverside Tribe follow him. He is familiar with Min Dang and takes good care of Ranwu.

Even though Ranwu was now a bald little fox, no one looked strange at him.

Everyone was very gentle and had no objections to the little fox's clumsy hunting behavior, and patiently guided him on relevant hunting techniques.

Ranwu's father had not gone hunting with the tribe since he injured his leg. As a young orc, Ranwu was supposed to go hunting, but his back was thin and hairless, and he had an instinctive resistance to hunting.

The people of the Mengshui tribe were concerned that his family had suffered a major change and never called them. They just counted them as a share when the tribe divided the prey after hunting.

Ranwu had not received much training and his hunting skills were not very good, so he gradually became even more afraid to go.

After arriving at the riverside tribe, with the encouragement of the elders, he slowly let go.

The overall atmosphere of the Riverside Tribe is relatively relaxed, and after Ranwu has been here for a while, he has integrated into the entire tribe.

On this day, Jian Mo came down from the mountain carrying fallen leaves and saw Ban Ming and the others talking around Ranwu from a distance.

Ranwu looked a little nervous and shook his head several times.

Jian Mo was worried that they would bully Ranwu, so he called them with a smile from a distance: "Ban Ming, are you coming to play with Ranwu?"

"Brother Jian Mo!" Several young orcs greeted Jian Mo.

Ban Ming said: "We are inviting Ranwu to go out to collect sap. This period is the best time to collect sap. Ranwu said it was too late and was a little worried that it would be unsafe to go out."

Ahu added excitedly: " We have identified several trees that are growing well. We will definitely be able to collect the best sap this year. "

Jian Mo was surprised: "What sap, why haven't I heard of it?"

Ban Ming said: "Brother Jian Mo, you just came to the tribe not long ago, so it's normal that you haven't heard anything about it. The sap is the sap of the Purple Heart Tree, a kind of drink, and it's delicious."

The expression in the orc language is quite clear, Jian Mo based on their words Guessed: "Is it the sap of the tree?"

Ban Ming nodded: "Yes, that's it. We can collect the sap by cutting a slit in the bark of the tree. The sap is the sweetest and sweetest at night, and when it is exposed to the sun during the day It just doesn't taste like that, so we collect sap during the longest night of the year,"

Ahu said, "Actually, it's not very practical to collect sap at night in the summer. It tastes like something rancid. It's not that bad at all."

Jian Mo became more and more curious after hearing their introduction. She couldn't help but say, "It sounds very good. I can go too." Do you want to pick it up?"

Ban Ming nodded immediately: "Of course, if you want, Brother Jian Mo, I'll call you when we set off."

Jian Mo said with a smile, "Then remember, I'll wait for you at home,"

Jian Mo said . If I want to go, Ranwu also wants to go with me.

Others in the tribe heard this and said that they had not gone to collect sap for a long time and they could give it a try.

As a result, the small-scale action that night turned into a collective activity for most of the tribe.

Jian Mo was sitting on the back of the giant wolf, carrying a satchel woven from grass stems, feeling like he was on a night out.

Not every tree can harvest sap. Only the sap of the Purple Heart Tree has a sweet and refreshing taste. The sap of other trees is either bitter or poisonous and cannot be used for drinking.

The Purple Heart Forest they were going to was some distance away from the tribe. The orcs turned back into their beast forms and ran, and the fox Ranwu turned into was among them.

He is slightly smaller than the average fox. He has been well cared for recently, and the bald areas have begun to grow hair.

It's just that most of the hair hasn't had time to grow out yet. The hair on his body is of varying lengths and mottled, which doesn't look very good.

Despite this, his excited posture and occasional uncontrollable barking showed that he was in a good mood.

The young orcs beside him were also very excited and turned around to interact with him from time to time.

Jian Mo reached out and hugged the giant wolf's neck with a smile on his face.

River Tribe is really good.

The orcs were very fast, and they arrived at their destination as soon as the moon rose over the mountain.

The sub-orcs got off the orcs, and the orcs changed back to their human form, put on animal skin robes, took wooden nails and sap-catching wooden tubes, and divided the territory of the forest with their friends.

Jian Mo and Wu Jiong went to the forest to the east, and Ye Luo went with them.

Walking to a big tree, Ye Luo took out a metal knife, scraped the bark a little, and smoothed the bark. Then he took off a large strip of bark in the shape of "Y", and nailed the wooden tube away. Underneath the bark, wait for the sap to flow down.

His movements were so neat that Jian Mo stared intently with admiration in his eyes.

When Ye Luo turned around, he saw Jian Mo staring from behind and couldn't help but laugh: "What's your expression?"

Jian Mo: "You are so nimble."

Ye Luo threw up the knife in his hand and caught it again: "This The knife is easier to use. If I used a shell knife before, it would not be so easy to peel off the bark."

Jian Mo: "Is this okay?"

Ye Luo: "You need to pick up two leaves and cover them on the wooden tube to prevent dust and small insects from falling in."

There are not many things in the forest, but there are a lot of fallen leaves. Just pick up two flat and wide fallen leaves and rub them. Just above it. Ye Luo: "Look, this will do."

Jian Mo felt that he had learned the lesson and took Wu Jiong to install the wooden tube on the other side.

There were quite a few wooden tubes in his satchel, but in order not to cause irreversible damage to the Purple Heart Tree, they could only install one wooden tube per tree.

In this way, after the wooden tube is removed, the damaged part of the purple heart tree will heal quickly, and the sap can be harvested again next year.

The two divided the work and cooperated. At first, Jian Mo peeled off the bark of the tree and Wu Jiong nailed the wooden tube.

After a while, Jian Mo got tired, and the task of peeling the bark was turned over to Wu Jiong.

Wu Jiong's movements are more agile, and he can handle a tree in just a few breaths.

Jian Mo estimated that even without the metal knife, his speed would not be much slower.

The laughter in the woods spread far away.

After a while, everyone installed the wooden tube, so the orcs changed back to their beast form again, the sub-orcs climbed on the backs of the orcs, and everyone was ready to go back.

Wait until tomorrow morning before the sun rises to pick up these wooden tubes.

Jian Mo seldom went out for activities at night. When he went back, he lay on the warm back of the giant wolf, hugged the giant wolf's neck, and fell asleep unconsciously.

When I opened my eyes again, it was already dawn the next day.

When he opened his eyes, the giant wolf also opened his eyes.

Jian Mo suddenly thought about it: "Should we go get the sap?"

Giant Wolf: "Yeah."

Jian Mo pulled the animal skin robe from his feet and came over: "Quick, quick, get dressed and get ready to go. Hey "Did I fall asleep on your back last night?" Julang

: "Yes, but you were not the only one who fell asleep." I saw that you were sleeping deeply, so I didn't call you.

on his neck: "Ah, it's great to have you."

The giant wolf turned its head and rubbed the top of his head with its chin, without saying a word.

The two quickly got dressed and were ready to go.

Many people in the tribe were waiting in the open space, and Ranwu was also there. Seeing them coming out, Ranwu waved his hands excitedly: "Brother Jian Mo, Brother Wu Jiong."

This kid looks like an ordinary boy. It's no different.

Jian Mo patted his shoulder: "You got up so early."

Ranwu: "I got up when I heard some noise outside."

People from the tribe came over one after another, and everyone was holding an empty bucket in their hands, ready to It will be used to hold the sap later.

Jian Mo also brought a bucket over. Compared with the empty buckets in the hands of ordinary people, the bucket in his hand was extra large.

Qing Kuo came over and laughed at him: "With such a big empty bucket, wouldn't you be very disappointed if you can't even fill half of it?"

Jian Mo: "That's not the case. Bring a bigger bucket. , so as not to spread out." After greeting

Qingkuo, Ranwu said from the side: "I installed half of the wooden tubes for Brother Jian Mo. I installed quite a lot of wooden tubes."

The young man's serious expression made him laugh.

When everyone arrived, the orcs transformed into their beast forms and set off.

This time they were going to harvest, and they ran faster than last night.

It was a bit cold in the morning, but Jian Mo felt hot inside.

He had never drunk tree sap, not even on earth, and was quite curious about the taste of tree sap.

In endless anticipation, they arrived at the Purple Heart Tree Grove where they collected sap last night.

After arriving at the destination, everyone went to collect the wooden tubes installed by themselves according to the site collected last night.

Ranwu said that the collected sap should be given to Jian Mo, so the three of them acted together.

After arriving under the tree, Jian Mo looked at the wooden tube that had been installed last night.

This wooden tube is about the size of a 500 ml water cup. Gently peel off the leaves on it and you will find that it is already full of clear liquid, which should be 500 to 600 ml.

The sap exudes a sweet and refreshing aroma.

Jian Mo held the wooden tube, waited for Wu Jiong to pull out the wooden nails on the wall of the wooden tube, and then carefully removed the wooden tube.

He was about to pour it into the bucket when Wu Jiong held his wrist: "You can drink the sap directly."

Jian Mo: "Really? Then let me have a taste."

Jian Mo raised his head slightly and raised the wooden tube to his mouth A sip of tree sap was poured into it.

When the sap touches the tip of the tongue, it has a cool taste and a refreshing and slightly sweet taste, a bit like mint water, but not as strong as mint water. It is much better to drink than mint water. There is a peculiar fragrance among the sweetness.

It actually tasted very good, better than any drink he had ever tasted.

Jian Mo's eyes lit up, and he held up the sap for Wu Jiong to drink: "It tastes very good."

Wu Jiong: "If it tasted bad, no one would bother with it."

Jian Mo smiled and came to collect it after the moon came out . Tree sap, it's really hard to recover all the sap before the sun comes out.

Wu Jiong didn't even speak to his lips, so he took a sip and handed it to Ranwu.

Ranwu took a big sip without hesitation: "It tastes good!"

Wu Jiong said, "Drink more, this is a specialty of the riverside tribe."

Ranwu held the wooden tube and nodded vigorously.

There was a lot of sap flowing out of the Purple Heart Tree, and eventually the bucket Jian Mo brought was filled with more than half of it.

He was a little worried that the sap inside would leak out, so when he climbed onto Wu Jiong's back, he tied the barrel in front of him and stretched out his hands to protect the barrel.

Unexpectedly, Wu Jiong ran very smoothly, and no sap came out of the tree for such a long distance.

They went home and had breakfast.

Jian Mo looked at the majority of the bucket of sap that he had finally collected and asked, "How to preserve this?"

Wu Jiong said, "Just take it to a shady place outside and freeze it. When you want to drink it, cut it off."

Jian Mo said, "Thaw it. Does it taste the same as it does now? Will it be less refreshing? "

Wu Jiong: "How much? So I need to drink more now, and then freeze it if I can't finish it."

Jian Mo immediately took the cups for the three of them and filled them up again . Three large glasses were poured all over the floor: "Come on, come on, let's all drink quickly, don't waste it. Especially you, Ranwu, please drink more."

Ranwu pursed his lips and nodded.

Jian Mo picked up the cup and took a long sip, sighing with satisfaction: "Speaking of which, we also have a similar drink there. In addition to drinking, we also use it to cook chicken."

Wu Jiong probably knew that chicken was What? Hearing this, he said, "I'll go hunt down a delicious bird later."

Jian Mo immediately said, "That's up to you. I'll pick some fresh seasonings. We can make bird soup at night!"

Wu Jiong: "I'll take Ranwu to Ranwu later."

Even in winter, there are relatively fresh seasonings outside. Jian Mo took Qing Kuo to pick the seasonings and invited them to have dinner at home.

Jian Mo felt a little embarrassed because he had troubled their family a lot during this period.

In the evening, Jian Mo cooked bird soup with tree sap.

The bird meat cooked with tree sap does have a particularly sweet taste, and when eaten with fresh seasonings, it has a completely different and delicious feeling.

Everyone was very satisfied eating meat and drinking soup.

Ban Ming rubbed his belly and said, "Brother Jian Mo, your craftsmanship is so good. I want to learn from you and cook it for him after we become partners with Amon."

Jian Mo was a little surprised and smiled: "Okay, If you are willing, you can come over and learn at any time. In fact, these are the dishes I cook, and they are not difficult."

Ban Ming counted on his fingers: "That's different. You can fry, stir-fry, steam, fry, and bake. , roasted, and sliced. There are so many tricks that I can't even remember them."

Jian Moxiao: "Then just learn the most common ones." Ranwu

: "I'll learn them too.

" Study, study, as long as you are willing to learn, I will teach you and I will not charge you any tuition."

Everyone laughed.

Ranwu has indeed grown a lot in the Riverside Tribe, and even his beast form has grown a lot.

His two fathers would visit him every few days, and every time they saw the changes in him, Min Dang's eyes would be a little red.

On this day, the two fathers from Ranwu came to see him again.

In addition to two large baskets of meat for Jian Mo and Wu Jiong, they also brought a pack of pepper pistils.

Jian Mo: "You are too polite."

Min Dang's eyes were a little red again: "Yes, thank you for taking care of Ran Wu."

After saying that, Min Dang circled Ran Wu's shoulders: "None of us thought that Ran Wu could He healed so quickly."

Ranwu leaned on his father's shoulder obediently and hugged his father.

Seeing them like this, Jian Mo felt a little uncomfortable in her heart: "There is no big problem with Ranwu. It's just that it happened to be at the time when it was growing the fastest, and the food didn't keep up, so there was a small problem. Eat more food, and eat more." Just get some sunshine."

Min Dang said, "Without you, it would be difficult for us to help him recover even if we knew this."

Jian Mo didn't want to continue talking about the problem of Ranwu. It would only make him sad.

He looked at Suai, his father in Ranwu, and said, "Speaking of which, I haven't seen your hands yet. Can you look at your hands?"

When Suai was in front of them, his hands were always wrapped with a strip of cloth. Jane Mo didn't know what was going on with Suai. He only knew that there was something wrong with his front legs, and that there was something wrong with his hands when he changed to human form.

Suai obviously trusted them a lot, and he unfolded the cloth strip on his hand without saying a word.

Immediately afterwards, Jian Mo saw that most of his palm was missing, and knew that there was nothing he could do.

This kind of loss of limbs might not be possible even on earth, let alone in orc society.

Jian Mo shook his head gently.

Suai had known the result, so he was not too depressed. Instead, he smiled and said, "I am very satisfied with the improvement. Before, I was afraid that I would not be able to keep my whole hand, but I didn't expect that only half of my palm was missing. The remaining two fingers can still do something."

Jian Mo put down his hand and said, "It's good."

Suai didn't wrap the cloth around again. When Jian Mo looked over, he explained, "I was worried before. You look at it for a while before wrapping it up, these two fingers are useful."

Mindang and Suai didn't stay long, and prepared to go back after seeing their son.

The Mengshui tribe was not close to their tribe, and Suai was still a disabled orc, so it would be difficult to drive back.

They had to set out as early as possible, otherwise they would be in danger at night.

Jian Mo and Wu Jiong went out to see them off, and Sui Ai changed back into his animal form, which looked a bit like a rhinoceros.

Because his left front leg was disabled, his leg just touched the ground lightly.

After his partner climbed on him, he turned his head and nodded towards Jian Mo and the others, and started running with his partner on his back.

The posture of running on three legs is not very good-looking, and he is a bit limping, but he still runs very fast and carries his partner very steadily.

After the orc recovered, he still showed his responsibility as a person.

Jian Mo watched him walk far away until their figures disappeared.

Ranwu kept looking at the backs of his two fathers, unwilling to leave for a long time.

Wu Jiong put his hand on Jian Mo's shoulder: "Let's go back too."

Jian Mo: "Okay."

After saying that, Jian Mo gently patted Ranwu's shoulder: "Let's go."

Ranwu sniffed. : "Yeah."

After the two fathers came to visit, Ranwu's mood became better. Although he was still a little sentimental, he seemed to be in a more positive state.

After returning to the house, he rushed to clean the winged beast's nest, saying that he could do it and let Jian Mo and Wu Jiong rest.

Jian Mo said to Wu Jiong: "Ranwu seems to like our tribe very much. I like him too, and I'm a little reluctant to let him go back. He seems much more positive and happy in our tribe."

Wu Jiong: "Let me think about it . Way."

Jian Mo thought he just said it casually and didn't ask any more questions.

Unexpectedly, a few days later, Wu Jiong told Jian Mo that Min Dang's family decided to move back to the Riverside Tribe and settle down in the Riverside Tribe from now on.

Jian Mo's eyes widened: "Can we still move?! When did you talk to them?"

Wu Jiong nodded: "I went out for so long yesterday just to go to the Mengshui tribe. Brother Mindang is originally from our tribe. They just moved to the Mengshui tribe after becoming partners with Suai. Now they are willing, and our tribe is also willing. Just talk to the Mengshui tribe. There is nothing wrong."

Jian Mo: "Is the negotiation settled? "

Wu Jiong: "It's settled. Yun Luan and the others have no objections."

Jian Mo couldn't bear to leave Ranwu. He was really happy when he heard the news: "That would be great. I also think that a change of environment might be helpful. It's better for them."

The people of the Riverside Tribe soon learned that Min Dang's family was moving back to the tribe, and they were very happy.

Especially Qing Kuo and Ye Luo, who grew up with Min Dang, after hearing the news, they cleaned and repaired the empty house in the tribe for several days, and also took out some supplies and put them in the house. .

Qing Kuo said to Jian Mo: "Min Dang used to be one of the most powerful sub-orcs in our tribe. He followed Sui Ai to the Mengshui tribe. We were depressed for a long time."

Ye Luo smiled next to him: "There was a time when Qing Kuo He scolded Sui Ai a lot in private. "

Qing Kuo: "If someone kidnapped you, I would scold him too."

Ye Luo: "Then you can just scold him in private. If I don't hear you, I'll pretend I don't know. "Yes."

Qingkuo sighed: "I didn't expect that something like this would happen later. It's actually good to move back. Suai is one of the most powerful orcs in the Mengshui tribe. It doesn't matter if his leg is injured, although it is inconvenient. They are chasing the prey, but the defense is still fine. Di Ya and the others have already agreed to take him hunting together."

Jian Mo: "That's great."

Qing Kuo said, "When spring comes, we can go hunting together. Come on, help their family build a house, and their life will be better."

The Mindang family is very welcome here in the Riverside tribe.

The people of the Mengshui tribe felt very uncomfortable after hearing the news:

"The tribe was so kind to them, but they moved to the Riverside Tribe. It's so heartless."

"That's it, Chief, why did you allow them to move? How bad would it be for our tribe's reputation if you tell them?" "

It seems like the Riverside Tribe I don't know if our tribe will decline."

"I still don't understand. Our tribe is so good, why do they want to move? We will give them some food even though they have no ability to hunt. "

Everyone was dissatisfied and muttered around Yun Lian. Although they didn't directly say they wanted to explain it, that's pretty much what it meant.

Yun Lun looked at the speaker majestically. He did not answer their questions, but asked: "Are you going to start a war with the people of the Riverside Tribe?"

Everyone was startled and avoided Yun Lun's sight:

"It doesn't seem like that."

"It's just a disabled orc. The kid from Ranwu is also in poor health. Isn't that necessary?"

"I also think there is no big conflict and there is no need to start a war."

"They also gave the tribe a lot of supplies when they left. They seemed to treat the tribe like Is that okay? Besides, Min Dang is originally from the Riverside Tribe, so it's not surprising that he moved back."

Yun Long looked at them and said seriously: "The rise of the Riverside Tribe can no longer be stopped. Since we have not decided to start a war, , then don't say those sour words to avoid unnecessary friction."

Everyone looked downcast: "Yes."

Yun Long looked at everyone calmly: "This land is enough for everyone to live together. The focus is on your own life, not comparing yourself to others.

life . Whether our tribe develops well or not depends only on our tribe, not on other tribes. This is why our tribe can develop in the past. If we develop our tribe, we will continue to develop in the future. The morale is up: "Yes!"

Chapter 56 Bedding

In the morning, Jian Mo yawned and went to the back mountain, intending to pinch a kind of grass called tendon grass.

This spice has a unique aroma and is delicious when used to make fried eggs.

It has snowed again in the past two days, and the back mountain is covered with a thin layer of snow.

Jian Mo held the wooden handle of the hoe and used the hoe as a hiking pole for the time being, using one foot deep and one foot shallow to support the climb up the mountain.

When he came to the terraced fields he had dug on the hillside, he used a hoe to pull apart the thick withered grass on the ridge, and sure enough, bright yellow grass grew from underneath.

It's just that the weather is too cold, and the grasses don't grow much. They look sparse, and the ones that grow only have two or three leaves.

Jian Mo checked it and was reluctant to pull out the grass, so he pinched the young leaves of the grass with his hands.

After pinching, the tendons will still grow, so you will still have them next time you want to eat them.

Jian Mo put the cut grass into the basket next to him. When he straightened up, he happened to see Qing Kuo, Ye Luo and Min Dang walking on the tribe's trail, walking far away in his direction.

The three of them spotted him immediately. Ye Luo waved to him and said hello with a smile.

Jian Mo held up the hoe and asked, "Where have you been this early in the morning?"

Ye Luo raised the basket in his hand: "I went to Xilu's house to exchange for mushrooms."

Xilu's father Manyuan They are particularly good at finding mushrooms, and they are the only family in the tribe that stores mushrooms all year round.

Min Dang also held up the basket and asked with a smile: "Jian Mo, do you want mushrooms? I bought some more, can you share some?"

Jian Mo waved his hand: "No need for the time being, we are eating omelette with grass this morning."

Qing Kuo was surprised: "Has your muscle grass been planted?"

Jian Mo: "It has been planted, but it doesn't grow well. It might take spring to grow well."

After exchanging a few words, the three of them quickly followed the trail in the tribe. After leaving, Jian Mo went home with the basket.

Speaking of which, the few remaining bird eggs at home were collected in autumn. After eating these eggs, they may not be able to collect bird eggs again until spring.

After breakfast, Jian Mo was doing chores at home. Qing Kuo came to visit. He was a little strange. After saying hello, he smiled and asked, "What do you want from me?"

Qing Kuo: "That's right, aren't we going to visit you during this period?" Have the empty houses in the tribe been cleared out? Several of the dilapidated houses have been repaired and they look pretty good. You said before that you wanted to build an empty house to receive patients who came for help. I just wanted to ask you, Do you want to use these renovated houses first?"

Jian Mo's eyes lit up: "Let me go and see. How many houses are there now?"

Qing Kuo: "Four, there are two near my house and Hongqiu's house. One room, one near Zhou Fu's house. The one near Zhou Fu's house is also the largest and neatest. Which one do you want?"

Qing Kuo said, and Jian Mo suddenly remembered: "Yes. Isn't it the house with grass growing on the roof?"

Qing Kuo waved his hand: "There is no grass anymore. We even changed the stones on the roof a little and painted the gaps with lime. It looks neat. "

Jian Mo: "Then I'll take a look later."

Qing Kuo: "Okay, tell me after you look at it, and we'll arrange it again."

Jian Mo said with emotion, "Thank you for your hard work."

Qing Kuo: "No. You're welcome. It's a good thing that there is a special place for medical treatment in the tribe. Just tell us what you want and we will try to do it as well as possible. "

The chores at hand are nothing important. Jian Mo thought for a while and simply went to see the empty house.

He was quite curious about how the abandoned houses were being cleaned up.

Soon, Jian Mo determined that the four vacated houses were all in good repair. The house near Zhou Fu's house was indeed in the best condition. It had a large space inside and the windows faced the river. What could be seen from the windows , you can see the river and the forest on the other side of the river.

Even in winter, you can see that the scenery here is very good. If it is summer, you will definitely see greenery everywhere.

Jian Mo fell in love with this house the first time he saw it.

Even if he builds a new house, it probably won't be as in line with his wishes as this house.

Jian Mo went to tell Qing Kuo that she wanted this house by the river.

Qingkuo immediately said that he would help clean it again and add some utensils to it, and asked him if he had any ideas.

Jian Mo was not polite and took a wooden board to draw the desired layout.

The house only has one floor, so you really need to plan it carefully.

The tribe was about to open a small veterinary hospital. Everyone was very curious and came to watch.

Even though there are no patients at all and it is not in use, and it is empty inside with only some wooden shelves and some animal skin mattresses on the shelves, everyone still likes to hang around here.

Qing Kuo said that winter is so boring and everyone has nothing to do and can only find something casually.

After the address of the Little Veterinary Hospital was determined, Wu Jiong moved some hardwood back and planned to make some shelves and cabinets for the veterinary hospital to make it easier for Jian Mo to put things.

Jian Mo squatted next to him and looked at the piece of wood: "What kind of tree is this? The wood smells so good."

Wu Jiong: "Jiajiashu, squat farther away to prevent the sawdust from falling to you."

Jian Mo moved to the side. He moved and touched the wood again: "It's dry. Have you prepared it in advance?"

Wu Jiong: "I wanted to make a batch of cabinets and put them on the second floor for you to use. I'll cut the wood in autumn." It's down."

Jian Mo turned to look at the wood piled in the yard: "You chopped a lot."

Wu Jiong: "There are still some in the forest, but they haven't been brought back yet."

Jian Mo felt moved and said to Wu Jiong. "How about you make me a bed?"

Wu Jiong: "What is a bed?"

Jian Mo: "It's a place to sleep -"

As soon as the words came out, Jian Mo was a little stuck. It was really hard to describe what a bed was. The floor where they were sleeping now was also the place to sleep.

Jian Mo thought for a while, then ran back to the house and took out a piece of charcoal to draw and show it to Wu Jiong: "It's just a shelf with wooden boards, and it becomes a bed when covered with quilts. We like sleeping on the bed there, it feels better than sleeping on the bed. The floor is better. "

Although the floor on the second floor is not very damp, it is not as comfortable as the bed. Every time he lies down, he feels a little uncomfortable. It is only better when sleeping on the giant wolf.

However, the giant wolf's body is not that flat, and sleeping on it is actually not as comfortable as a regular bed.

Jian Mo said: "The bed has a certain height and is more comfortable to sleep on."

Wu Jiong looked at it carefully and nodded: "It's not difficult. I'll make the bed first."

Jian Mo said happily: "Then I'll prepare the mattress and quilt first. ."

Ever since Jian Mo started treating people seriously, he has never been short of materials.

Later, with the metal sent by the Jintuo tribe, his inventory became richer. Even if there was anything missing in his hand, he could exchange it for materials or metal.

Now that he wanted to make a quilt, he simply bought a lot of animal hair.

Because it was too weird to use a certain orc's hair for bedding, the fur he replaced was that of a pack animal.

Everyone liked the fur of beasts of burden in general, so he exchanged a few hides and a batch of sausages for a lot of them.

He first selected the pack animal hair that he had returned, then put it in a basket, washed it with soap, and spread it on the open ground and pressed it with wooden strips to dry.

The sunshine and cold wind make the animal hair dry and fluffy, making it lighter and softer.

Animal hair in this state is ready for use.

Jian Mo took the animal hair back, picked a nice day, and started making quilts.

He first spread the animal hair flat on the cloth to a certain thickness, then covered it with a layer of cloth, and then used thread to evenly sew grids on the cloth to ensure that the amount of animal hair in each small grid was equal. almost.

The familiar orcs in the tribe came over to help him sew together, and Min Dang also came over to help.

No one expected that such an exquisite quilt could be made, and they were amazed while making it.

Qing Kuo: "The quilt made this way is light and warm, indeed better than animal skin."

Jian Mo smiled: "It's not that stuffy, and it's easy to clean."

Speaking of this, Qing Kuo disagreed: "Isn't it difficult to wash? There are so many animal hairs inside, it will be very heavy when it touches water, and it is not easy to dry. It will probably take several days to dry, and maybe the animal hair inside will become moldy."

Everyone nodded. , according to their life experience, this kind of large quilt should not be easy to wash.

Jian Mo explained: "This is just the quilt core, and there is a quilt cover on the outside. When washing, just take off the quilt cover and wash it, not the whole thing together."

Mindang: "Quilt cover?"

Jian Mo: "Yes. Then use a cloth to make a cover, and wrap the quilt core in it when using it. If you feel the quilt core is a little damp, dry it in the sun and give it a dozen times. There is no need to wash the whole thing in water

. Thoughtfully: "This sounds okay. The animal skin is too heavy, so you can cover the cubs with a quilt like this."

Jian Mo: "Yes. The fabric quilt cover is breathable and absorbs sweat, making it less likely to catch a cold when covered with a quilt."

The more Jian Mo said, the more excited everyone became, and they all said they wanted to learn how to make quilts from him.

He simply took everyone to make two large quilts and two large quilt covers, and ropes were sewn at the four corners of the quilt core and quilt cover. After the quilt was set, he tied the ropes so that the quilt core inside would not run around. .

Everyone followed the whole process and got a good idea of ​​how to make a quilt.

When they made the quilt cover here, Wu Jiong's bed was almost ready.

Due to the lack of supplies, their beds did not use metal nails, but all used mortise and tenon structures. After the bed frame was completed, it was completed by splicing and assembling it.

Jian Mo went over to take a look and felt that this bed was not much different from a modern bed.

If he had to say there was a difference, that was that he didn't know how to get wood paint, and he didn't have vegetable oil. The wood of this wooden bed was left bare, without oil or paint to prevent insects and moths.

But it's not a big problem. You can refill it later if you get it. You can make do with it for now.

The day the bed was made, Jian Mo carefully wiped it with cloth several times, then brought the dried bedding back and spread it on the bed.

He didn't bother to embroider or dye the quilt covers and sheets. They were all solid colors with a little linen color. They were laid on the wooden bed and matched well with the wooden floor and stone wall. They looked almost the same as a modern bed.

Jian Mo threw herself on the bed, rolled around on the soft bed, smelled the faint scent of soap on the quilt cover, and sighed with satisfaction.

It's not easy.

This bedding set is so comfortable, much more comfortable than an animal skin bedding.

Jian Mo hugged the quilt and rolled over again. When he opened his eyes again, Wu Jiong had turned into a giant wolf and slept next to him.

Jian Mo climbed up to him along the bed, pinched his ears, and lay on him: "The bed has been made, why are you still sleeping under it?"

The giant wolf said: "I can't sleep on the bed, so I happened to be standing guard on the edge. Watching you."

Jian Mo couldn't help but say, "You don't have to watch, just come up and sleep with me."

The giant wolf turned to look at him.

He kissed the giant wolf on the cheek: "Really, come up and sleep. If we don't sleep together, it would be a waste to make such a big bed."

The giant wolf returned to human form and stretched out his arms to hug him: "Okay."

Jian Mo lay down On Wu Jiong's chest, directly touching his skin, his face was a little red, and he avoided looking at him: "Put on your pajamas quickly. If you are not used to it, you can also wear some pants."

It was too big, Jian Mo felt it . Not ready yet.

Jian Mo turned his head and avoided Wu Jiong's sight again.

Wu Jiong let him go: "I'm looking for a pair of pants."

Jian Mo: "Then I'll wait for you on the bed."

After saying that, Jian Mo snorted, got under the quilt, and buried himself.

After being buried for two seconds, he poked his head out from under the quilt and looked at Wu Jiong, who was looking for clothes in front of the wooden box in the corner.

At this time, the light of the oil lamp in the room was dim, illuminating Wu Jiong's entire body.

Wu Jiong's body lines are very graceful. Perhaps because he needs to hunt, he doesn't have too many muscles on his body, but rather restrained muscles full of explosive power.

Jian Mo's ears felt hot, and he suddenly remembered a classmate who once said that when he saw a handsome guy, he said that as long as he was handsome enough, he would be of the same sex.

He wanted to shout now, brother, I can do it.

If it's Wu Jiong, there seems to be nothing wrong with it.

Men are so attractive.

Chapter 57 Onion

and Garlic Fragrance Sleeping in a bed with a giant canine feels completely different from sleeping in a bed with a grown man.

Whether it's the other person's burning skin, regular breathing, or physiological reactions, it's hard to ignore.

Jian Mo, who usually stayed in bed, woke up before dawn. He let go of his hands on Wu Jiong's body and his calves on Wu Jiong's legs, arched his body back, and carefully moved under the bed. .

Wu Jiong's hand caught up with him, grabbed his waist, and asked sleepily: "What's wrong?"

Jian Mo's heartbeat accelerated again, and his pounding heart made him feel a little uncomfortable.

He paused, took a deep breath quietly, and then took away Wu Jiong's hand: "Nothing, I'm going to the bathroom, you can go to sleep."

After saying that, without waiting for Wu Jiong to answer, he hurriedly got out of bed and lay on the bed. Ran away.

When he walked outside the door and was blown by the cold wind, the heat in his body subsided, and his whole body returned to normal a little.

Despite this, he still didn't dare to go back immediately. Instead, he stood outside and waited for him to calm down completely before slowly entering the house.

After all, he is a good-natured young man.

Jian Mo shook his head mockingly. When he thought of certain things, his mouth suddenly became dry again, so he had to go out and stand for a while to catch the wind.

White fish belly appeared on the horizon, and there were only a few morning stars left.

It's getting late now, and since it's starting to get light, we can make breakfast.

Jian Mo did not go upstairs again, but instead scooped up the ashes in the fire pit, dug out the coals buried underneath, grabbed a handful of dead leaves and covered them, blowing on the coals.

The white ash on the surface of the coals was blown away, sparks touched the dead leaves, a plume of green smoke rose, and then the entire handful of dead leaves was set alight.

He reached out and picked a handful of small dead branches and placed them on the dead leaves. After the dead branches were also lit, he added thicker pieces of firewood inside.

By this time, after lighting the fire in the morning, you can put the water jug ​​on it and burn it, then heat the stone slab and prepare for breakfast.

While Jian Mo was busy, someone outside called him: "Jian Mo——"

"Who is it?" Jian Mo agreed, went out to look, and saw Zhou Fu standing on the road outside.

Zhou Fu waved his hand to him: "There is a bacon trader in the tribe. Do you want to go over and have a look? It's in the open space."

Jian Mo glanced at the sky and was stunned: "Now?"

Zhou Fu: "Yes. Ah, they were nearby last night, but they didn't want to disturb us. This morning when we got up to light a fire to cook, they saw the smoke and came over after they knew we were awake. "

It's true that we haven't had fresh food at home for several days. , Jian Mo thought for a moment: "Wait a minute, what do you want to replace their cured meat with?"

Zhou Fu: "Is it cloth or something? I just took a look, and they seem to accept everything. Their cured meat is really good. Eat it. If you like cooking, you should also like their bacon."

Jian Mo: "I'll get it upstairs."

Jian Mo moved the stone slab on the fire pit and hurried upstairs to get the cloth.

Wu Jiong put on his clothes and came over: "Someone comes to the tribe to exchange for bacon?"

Jian Mo: "Yes, I'll go take a look."

Wu Jiong: "I'll go with you."

Jian Mo smiled: "That's all. "Why don't we two go together?"

Wu Jiong took the cloth in his hand and said, "I want to go with you."

The two of them went downstairs together, and Zhou Fu was waiting outside the door, with a smile on his face when he saw them coming out together. His expression was a little subtle, and his smile was quite strange.

Jian Mo asked: "What's wrong?"

Zhou Fu showed the exclusive mysterious smile of a married sub-orc: "It's okay."

Jian Mo understood instantly and coughed softly: "Let's hurry up, otherwise everyone who changes meat will be Let's go."

Zhou Fu said, "Don't worry, it won't be that fast."

They went to the open space together, and there were already many people from the tribe.

Everyone gathered around the two strangers and were picking something from the basket. Jian Mo guessed that there must be cured meat in it.

Jian Mo walked over quickly.

When the people in the tribe saw it was him, they greeted him with a smile and made room for him to step forward.

Jian Mo responded one by one and walked to the front.

When he looked down, he didn't see the bacon, but saw pieces of beige fat.

I didn't expect that cured meat is cured fat meat.

The sub-orc man who exchanged meat smiled and promoted: "Doctor Jian Mo, which piece do you want, or can I choose a good one for you?"

Jian Mo raised his head: "Do you know me?"

The sub-orc man smiled: "Everyone just told me, I Did you admit it?"

Jian Mo: "No, it's awesome."

The orc man's smile grew bigger. Seeing that Jian Mo didn't choose well, he simply took out the fattest piece of meat and asked, "How about this one?"

Jian Mo looked at the piece of fat meat that was larger than the palm of his hand. Perhaps because it had been marinated, the surface of the fat meat was still a little wrinkled. In any case, it was not as delicious as the marinated meat he knew.

He hesitated.

The sub-orc misunderstood what he meant, so he took out a bone knife and sliced ​​off a thin piece of fat meat: "Try it first and see if you like it. If you like it, change it."

Jian Mo: "Ah, thank you."

The sub-orc man stared at him with burning eyes: "You're welcome, try it quickly. Our bacon is quite famous among more than a dozen nearby tribes, and everyone who has tasted it doesn't like it."

So exaggerated?

Jian Mo pinched the piece of fat, wondering whether he should taste it.

Zhou Fu and the others helped by saying, "Yes, Kuang Ning's bacon is really delicious, but it's a pity that we can't always guess the secret recipe."

The sub-orc named Kuang Ning smiled heartily: "If only you could all guess it. It's a secret recipe, can it still be called a secret recipe?"

Everyone looked at Jian Mo.

Jian Mo has been here for so long, and he is not as particular as before, and he doesn't like to waste food. With a sudden heart, he directly picked up the meat and took a small bite.

To his surprise, this piece of marinated meat was not greasy or fishy at all. Instead, it had a unique aroma. If he closed his eyes, he might feel like he was eating something like butter.

Wait, there seems to be an aroma like onion and garlic in this fragrance!

It doesn't seem to be an illusion, it does exist!

After taking one more bite, Jian Mo immediately realized that there were spices similar to onions and garlic in the marinated meat.

Jian Mo's eyes lit up. God knows how long he had been looking for Cong Suan!

He gave the remaining marinated meat to Wu Jiong and looked at Kuang Ning: "Did you use some seasoning that we don't have here to marinate the marinated meat?"

Kuang Ning was not surprised and asked with a smile: "You can taste it. "Yes?"

Jian Mo nodded: "It has a very special aroma."

Kuang Ning: "That's a special spice near our tribe. It's because of the addition of this spice that our cured meat has become the most popular among dozens of nearby tribes." of cured meat."

From this tone, one knew that the other party would not reveal the secret recipe casually.

It was not easy to ask questions in public. Jian Mo turned all kinds of thoughts in his mind: "Let's change to some bacon first."

Jian Mo turned around and Wu Jiong handed over the cloth in his hand.

Kuang Ning checked it a little and asked, "How about these five pieces of marinated meat?"

Jian Mo felt a little distressed when she saw the five pieces of marinated fat meat that Kuang Ning picked out. It was really expensive.

But he really liked the aroma of onions and garlic, so he nodded and went back to taste it first. When he found the spice later, he made it himself.

After replacing the marinated meat, Jian Mo and Wu Jiong took the meat home.

Jian Mo asked: "Aren't Kuang Ning and the others from near our tribe?"

Wu Jiong: "Their tribe is called Qin Hai, which is next door to the Bingjiang tribe."

Jian Mo calculated: "That's really far away. It's at least three days away from us?"

Wu Jiong: "They run faster, it shouldn't take three days, but it's really far away."

Jian Mo thought for a while: "Then the terrain there is completely different from ours. Same? Are the specialties different?"

Wu Jiong cast a confused look.

Jian Mo shook the cured meat wrapped with grass stalks: "The unique spices in their cured meat must have grown in a different place from ours, otherwise it would have spread long ago." Jian Mo

has always liked collecting . Wu Jiong didn't think it was strange when he asked about these spices. He just said: "I don't know much about it. When the longest night is over in the past few days, I will accompany you to have a look."

Jian Mo: " Okay, it feels like I haven't been out for a while, and I'm feeling exhausted in the tribe."

After returning home, Jian Mo cut two pieces of bacon and planned to grill them on the stone slab later.

He wasn't sure how the marinated meat would taste after it was cooked, so he didn't dare to cut too much.

Unexpectedly, the marinated meat took on a translucent color after being grilled, and had a strong aroma. In addition to the aroma of onions and garlic, there was also a slight milk aroma.

Jian Mo originally thought of grilling some sausages for breakfast, but seeing this, he simply cooked the stems.

He divided the stem into two parts and ate them with Wu Jiong and grilled marinated meat.

The flavor of the cured meat is very fragrant. Eating it with the stems makes the stems smoother and tastes really good.

Jian Mo's eyes showed surprise. He thought there was no delicious food here, but he didn't expect that a random sub-orc would show him what it means to underestimate the world's heroes.

Wu Jiong knew from his expression that he liked it, so he said: "If you like it, I will change some later. There are still a lot of unused fabrics and animal skins at home, which can be used."

Jian Mo objected: "Change it. I'll find the starch later and we'll bake some delicious food tonight."

Jian Mo hasn't baked bread or other food for a long time. The main starch is too precious. He doesn't have much left here, so it's not easy to waste it.

Today, he had a rare chance to get cured meat, and his craving for it immediately aroused.

After breakfast, he went to the backyard and brought back frozen meat. After marinating it, he put it on the stone slab and roasted it slowly.

The starch is mixed with the milk of the beast of burden to form a dough, and then the meat pieces and minced bacon are mixed together, wrapped in the dough, and baked on a stone slab.

Bake until both sides are golden brown, Jian Mo puts the cake on the plate and calls Wu Jiong, who is doing carpentry in the yard, to come in and try the cake while it's hot.

Jian Mo specially made two cups of tea, sat on the table in front of the window with Wu Jiong, and greeted him in a very ceremonial manner: "Have a try."

Wu Jiong picked up the cake and took a bite.

The outside of the cake is very crispy and fragrant, and the inside is full of meat filling. Because of the addition of fresh meat and cured meat, the meat filling is very oily and has an attractive gravy.

In the gravy, another strange aroma floated up, which made people want to eat it, but they couldn't grab anything. They could only take bite after bite and taste the taste carefully.

Wu Jiong's eyebrows moved slightly, and he seemed to like it very much.

Jian Mo held the cake upright and took a bite.

The familiar aroma of onions and garlic inside instantly captured his taste buds.

This is the scent! tasty!

Jian Mo sniffed and couldn't help but take another big bite of the cake.

He said that meat goes best with seasonings such as onions, ginger, and garlic, and everything else seems to be a bit lacking.

It seemed that they had to go to the tribe called Qin Hai.

Chapter 58 Daye Suan

heard that Jian Mo wanted to go to the Qinhai tribe, and the orcs who were friends with Jian Mo came to his house one after another.

Qing Kuo said: "The Qinhai tribe is very cold, even colder than here. They suffered a lot in the winter."

Zhou Fu added seriously: "The wind there is very strong, and they say it can blow people away. You guys. Wear more clothes, Jian Mo, follow the clan leader, don't really get blown away."

When Jian Mo heard what they said, he could hardly hold the scalpel in his hand: "How can it be so exaggerated?"

Ye Luo is rare . Agreeing: "It's true. Their place is different from ours. They are all low mountains and plateaus."

Jian Mo still doesn't fully understand the orc language. When he heard the word "plateau", he still talked to Ye Luo After confirming, it was indeed the plateau he thought of.

He couldn't help but said: "It's only three days apart, is the difference between the two sides so big?"

Qing Kuo: "It's not a three-day distance, it's a three-day distance that the orcs in our tribe run on. With us, The speed of the tribe's orcs is already very far."

It makes sense. Jian Mo nodded and said seriously: "Then I will make preparations."

Ye Luo saw that Jian Mo had found all the scalpels and other instruments and put them away. Entering the animal skin bag, he asked: "Are you going to treat the people of the Qinhai tribe this time?"

Jian Mo: "Absolutely. I heard that the Qinhai tribe is quite big, and most of them have sick people. I will bring the equipment It's better to bring some medicine with you so you're prepared. It's not heavy anyway."

Ye Luo reached out and touched his animal skin bag, then turned to ask Min Dang, "Is it made by Min Dang?

" The treated genuine leather has extremely fine texture and a very beautiful tan color. It looks no different from modern handbags on earth, and it also has a rugged coolness.

After the animal skin bag is opened, the partitions inside are also very thin, making it convenient for Jian Mo to store various instruments and medicines.

It looked like this animal skin bag was made with care by Min Dang. After receiving it, Jian Mo was very moved and sent a large basket of sausages, milk, etc. to Min Dang's family as a thank you.

Min Dang accepted the food and made several small bags for him.

Now Jian Mo has a lot of useful small bags in her hands, and it is very convenient to pack things.

Everyone looked on with envy, and the conversation slowly turned to how to make animal skin bags.

Jian Mo tidied up, and Wu Jiong made arrangements for the tribe. Taking advantage of the fact that there was nothing to do in the winter, they set off on the Winged Beast the next day.

The Winged Beast hadn't gone out with them for a while, and seemed very excited and kept chirping.

Jian Mo had to touch its neck to comfort it and make it bark less to avoid choking.

The Qinhai tribe was indeed very far away from their riverside tribe. Even if the Winged Beast flew in a straight line at full speed, they would only arrive in the afternoon of the next day.

Looking down from above, they could see that the places where the Qinhai tribe was located were all low mountains.

Because in winter, there is only endless snow on the plateau, and the boundary between the plateau and the low mountains is not very clear. They are all flat anyway, and the scenery looks very monotonous.

It's really cold here, and there's a feeling of loneliness.

The people of the Qinhai tribe did not build houses, they all lived in caves.

At the foot of the low mountain, you can see the caves they dug. The entrances of the caves are narrow and dark, and they look like small eyes in the mountains.

Jian Mo counted briefly in the air and counted more than three hundred caves on the front of the mountain, but he could not count the caves on the back of the mountain for the time being.

It seems that this is a very large tribe indeed.

However, the territory of this tribe is definitely not as deserted as what he saw. If it were really deserted, it would definitely not be able to support such a large population.

At most, everything dies in winter and he can't see the lush plants.

Jian Mo and the others followed the etiquette of the orc world and directed the flying-winged beasts to stop a few hundred meters away from the Qinhai tribe.

The place was completely white and monotonous. The two orcs patrolling the Qinhai tribe had already seen them.

Seeing the Winged Beast fall to the ground, one of the patrolling orcs ran over and started shouting from a distance: "Are you from the Riverside Tribe?"

Jian Mo: "Yes - we want to come and exchange things -"

from the Qinhai Tribe The man said enthusiastically: "Then you guys come here quickly. Kong Fen has already gone to call the clan leader and will be out soon."

Jian Mo and Wu Jiong led the flying winged beast and walked one foot deep and one foot shallow in the snow. The snow was probably already there. It has been under the snow for several days, and it is not as soft as when it first fell to the ground. There is a thin layer of ice crust on it, which makes it difficult to step on.

After walking for a while, Jian Mo was a little out of breath. This was because Wu Jiong was pulling him beside him and lending him some strength to make sure he wouldn't fall.

Jian Mo felt that it was cold outside, but his body wrapped in thick animal skin was still sweating. The heat evaporated and frost condensed on his hat and the special mask on his face.

The orcs patrolling the Qinhai tribe looked at him several times when they came over, and asked curiously: "What are these on your face? Are they fashionable things from the tribes outside?"

Jian Mo took off the simple brown sunglasses on his face, panting. He said in a voice: "This is to protect the eyes, and the mask is to protect the skin. It's too cold, so as not to be chapped by the wind."

The orc in front of him nodded understandingly: "You have such good things out there. "Come on, let's go to our tribe's conference cave first."

After hearing this, Jian Mo and Wu Jiong followed Yi Tong.

After finally reaching the meeting cave, they tied the winged beast outside the cave and walked in carefully.

The entrance of the cave is small, but the inside is wide and big, dry and warm. Even the sound of the wind is muted after entering. It is very quiet. It is a completely different world from the outside.

Jian Mo sighed quietly. After seeing the harsh world outside, he realized that this cave was really comfortable.

The orcs from the Qinhai tribe invited them to sit down on the chairs made of stone pillars: "Our clan leader will be here soon."

Before he finished speaking, a tall figure suddenly came in from outside the cave.

Jian Mo subconsciously looked up and saw a very strong and large orc. The upper body of his body seemed to be a solid triangle. Even the thick animal skin robe could not hide the bulging chest muscles.

As soon as the visitor came in, he introduced himself: "Chief Wu Jiong, Doctor Jian Mo? I am Shu Guang, the patriarch of the Qinhai tribe. We met in the Mengshui tribe."

Wu Jiong stood up and touched Shu Guang's shoulders, and then Hugged him: "I remember."

Shu Guang said happily: "I didn't expect you to come. Welcome."

Jian Mo: "We want to exchange some spices."

Shu Guang: "You are welcome too. Let's go, I I'll take you to the cave to stay first, and then ask the people in the tribe if they have any extra spices. If not, I'll take you out to dig it out tomorrow."

Jian Mo didn't expect the clan leader to be so enthusiastic: "Thank you so much."

Shu Guang smiled heartily and said, "Why are you so polite? It's just a little spice."

When Shu Guang led them to the vacant cave, he asked a lot about things outside.

Wu Jiong answered seriously.

The place is vast and sparsely populated, so it is not easy to exchange information. Shu Guang attaches great importance to the various information they bring.

As they walked, other people from the Qinhai tribe who heard the news ran over to see them.

Maybe winter is too boring, or maybe it's not easy to have an outsider in the tribe, but everyone is very enthusiastic and helps to get things.

Jian Mo's mouth quickly became dry while chatting with the people from the Qinhai tribe.

When they reached the vacant cave, a bonfire had been lit in the cave, and the earthen platform in the corner of the cave was covered with thick animal skins.

Shu Guang introduced: "Our place is no better than yours. You won't be able to bear it if you sleep on the ground directly. The bed can slightly isolate the cold air, so sleeping on it is more comfortable. You may be a little uncomfortable, but it's best not to sleep on the ground."

Jian Moxiao: " I also like to sleep on the bed, you are so considerate."

Shu Guang: "Come on, let's warm the fire and drink some tea. The tea here is different from the one below. There is Mingye in it. Take a look. Do you like it or not? If you don't like it, I'll give you plain water."

We all chatted for a while and quickly became closer.

Some orcs and sub-orcs brought meat and roasted it in the cave to entertain them.

Jian Mo tasted the meat and could indeed taste the aroma of onions and garlic, which was quite fragrant.

He found meat sausages and fruit cakes, baked them and entertained the people of the Qinhai tribe, and received unanimous praise from the people of the Qinhai tribe.

Everyone is very happy.

Early the next morning, Jian Mo guessed that just after dawn, Shu Guang led people outside the cave to ask if they were up, and invited them to go out to dig for spices.

Everyone in the Qinhai tribe didn't have much spice to exchange for, so Shu Guang said he would take them out to dig up as much spice as they wanted.

Jian Mo didn't expect that this trip would go so smoothly. After thanking the people from the Qin Hai tribe, he simply washed up, put on his sunglasses and mask, and set off with them.

The orcs of the Qinhai tribe changed back to their beast form outside.

Their animal form is a bit like a bear, and the orc form of the Bingjiang tribe is also a bit like a bear. It seems that the human and animal forms of these two neighboring tribes are similar.

However, the orcs of the Qinhai tribe have lighter hair color and are larger in stature. Their four feet look like four small boats, which is beneficial for them to run on the snow.

What was different from what Jian Mo thought was that the people of the Qinhai tribe did not have that high demand for meat. Compared to the big cats and dogs who did not like meat, these bears preferred plant-based food.

Everyone started running on the snowfield, causing the earth to tremble.

The bears ran very fast, almost like cannonballs running amok. Because their bodies were so stocky, the meat and thick fur on their bodies bounced a little as they ran, creating the feeling of waves of flesh.

Jian Mo observed them curiously, looked at them for a while, and then looked at the giant wolf that Wu Jiong had turned into.

Giant wolves were among them, galloping across the snowy fields like lightning. Their postures were more vigorous and their running was more beautiful than the bears.

Jian Mo hugged him tighter and put his face on the giant wolf's neck, with a little pride in his eyes.

They ran for who knows how long, and the scenery around them changed from a snowfield to a pile of low mountains.

Maybe it was because of the strong wind, or maybe there wasn't that much snow here, so the dead grass, shrubs and ground on the low mountains were exposed.

When he ran to a certain place, Shu Guang gave an order: "We're here, let's collect it here."

Then everyone stopped, and the orcs of the Qinhai tribe lifted their animal skin bags to the ground and melted in place . Take out the clothes and put them on.

The same goes for Wu Jiong.

Jian Mo simply didn't know where to look, so he could only look down at the ground.

Shu Guang came over: "Let's go, I will take you to collect big leaf garlic."

Jian Mo nodded: "Thank you for your hard work."

Shu Guang smiled heartily and said: "It's a small matter, you're welcome."

The people of the Qinhai tribe dispersed one after another, each going their own way. Gone to collect.

Shu Guang also led them forward: "Large-leaf garlic is quite easy to recognize. The leaves are very wide. Even if the leaves are withered, you can still tell them at a glance."

As he said, Shu Guang pointed forward: "Look, there is something ahead. There is one."

Jian Mo followed Shu Guang's gaze and saw a plant with leaves as big as rice dumplings lying on the ground.

They walked forward, and Jian Mo gathered up the withered yellow leaves and took a big handful.

It may have been the growing season. The leaves under Jian Mo's hands were rough, with sharp edges. The leaves were thicker and harder than ordinary weeds.

Shu Guang said: "In spring and summer, we eat the leaves of garlic. This season we have to dig its roots."

Jian Mo nodded and took out a small metal hoe from the basket on his back: "Is this how you dig it?"

Shu Guang said. Guangduo glanced at his little hoe and nodded: "Just dig like this, you try it."

Jian Mo swung the hoe, peeling away the mud on the side in a few clicks, and then saw the thin and dense roots underneath. The whiskers, these whiskers are no different from garlic whiskers, at most they are thicker and longer.

Jian Mo silently praised herself for translating it into big leaf garlic.

This thing really looks like garlic.

When digging out the soil, Jian Mo found that the soil underneath was quite soft and fertile, which was different from the desert scene he imagined.

No wonder the Qinhai tribe has grown so big. This is such a good place.

Garlic leaves have many roots and it is not easy to remove them completely.

Jian Mo dug for a while and was a little out of breath. Wu Jiong took over and then swung the hoe to dig out the whole big leaf garlic.

Shu Guang: "These roots can be eaten, but you should add less of them when eating. Without special processing, the roots will be very bitter. If you add too much, all food will become bitter."

Jian Mo stood up, not breathing yet . When Yun Qi suddenly heard his words, he couldn't help but froze for a moment: "Huh?"

Shu Guang made a gesture, indicating that they would know after they taste it.

Jian Mo looked at the large-leaf garlic, stretched out his hand and pinched a section of root, peeled off the muddy outer skin, and gently bit the core inside. Then, a bitter and spicy taste swept over his entire taste buds.

The roots of the big-leaf garlic were bitter, pungent and pungent, which made Jian Mo feel a mask of pain. He frowned and quickly turned around to sigh.

Wu Jiong immediately handed the wooden tube over and motioned for him to drink water and rinse his mouth.

Jian Mo gave the roots to Wu Jiong and gargled his mouth several times before saying with a grimace: "It's really refreshing and bitter."

Shu Guang said, "So when cooking, you should add less. After cooking, The bitter and spicy taste will be less."

Jian Mo: "I didn't expect it."

Shu Guang: "Do you still want to dig it?"

Jian Mo hesitated and

said, "Come on, let me . I'll take you to the next one. Your hoe looks really useful, much better than our stone hoe. Can you borrow it?"

Jian Mo handed him the hoe: "It's made of metal that we exchanged with the Jintuo tribe. "

Shu Guang: "We also heard about the Jintuo tribe. We wanted to exchange things before, but unfortunately they wanted too many things and didn't like ordinary things. We changed two knives later and stopped. , let's just make do with it."

Jian Mo: "Indeed, as long as it can be used."

Shu Guang led them to continue digging garlic.

There are quite a lot of large-leaf garlic on the hillside, and you can come across one if you walk a few steps. They dug all the way there, and it took them half a day to dig out most of the basket.

It was just too cold, cold and dry outside. After playing outside for a long time, the skin on Jian Mo's hands became dehydrated and hardened. It felt like tree bark, and he almost had runny nose from the cold.

Jian Mo estimated that he might catch a cold if he stayed outside for a while, so he proposed to go back first.

Shu Guang kindly took them back to the tribe and brought them tea: "It's really cold here. You can just drink more tea and take it easy. It's okay to stay here for a few more days. It's good to chat." "

Jian Mo sniffed: "Thank you. By the way, Chief Shu Guang, I brought tools and medicine this time. If anyone in your tribe is feeling unwell, you can come to me."

Shu Guang: "That's great. , I will tell them later."

Jian Mo said seriously: "I will try my best to help, but it may not be cured. If it is not cured, I will not charge any supplies. If it is cured, I may have to. A certain amount of supplies will be used to make up for the loss of medicine."

Shu Guang nodded repeatedly: "Yes, no problem, I will tell them."

Chapter 59: Couple Trick

As people get older, they are always prone to small problems.

So are the people of this world.

After Jian Mo said that people who felt uncomfortable could come and take a look, their temporary cave was never empty during the day.

Kuang Ning of the Qinhai tribe went out to exchange for bacon. When he came back, he was surprised to see everyone running to where Jian Mo was to see a doctor. He specially grabbed the familiar orc man and said, "Doctor Jian Mo can really treat patients?"

"Yes. "The sub-orc man showed him his legs, "You know my legs hurt in the winter. After the application of medicine by Dr. Jian Mo in the past two days, they are much better now."

Kuang Ning looked at the traces of herbal medicine that still remained on him. Legs: "It's really effective. So what did he collect?"

"He said he wanted animal hair, so I gave him two baskets of Tartar beast hair, and he returned one basket to me, so it was one basket of Tartar beasts. The hair of the tower beast." After the companion finished speaking, he suggested, "Don't you always have something growing on your hand? Why don't you take this opportunity to let Dr. Jian Mo take a look?"

Kuang Ning hesitated: "Then I'll go find him. Take a look."

Kuang Ning took her friend to the temporary cave where Jian Mo and the others lived to find him.

The cave, which was usually deserted and no one came here at all, was now filled with people, and Kuang Ning almost couldn't squeeze in.

Among the crowd, Wu Jiong was changing someone's dressing in a corner of the cave.

After Kuang Ning entered, he greeted his fellow tribesmen all the way and then said hello to Wu Jiong: "Clan Chief Wu Jiong."

Wu Jiong nodded: "Jian Mo is inside."

Jian Mo was holding a wooden needle in his hand and giving it to a Xiaoya Orc. Prick your finger.

When he was a child, he was pricked by his grandma for food accumulation. During this time, he picked it up and tried it on several children. The effect was good, so he picked up this treatment method.

In addition to acupuncture, he also picked up many treatment methods during this period. They were all treated while exploring. They may not be useful to people, but there must be no major harm, so you can try it.

He used boiled disposable wooden needles. He grabbed the little orc's fingers and wanted to hide, but he couldn't hide. There were two lines of tears hanging on his cheeks.

Seeing Kuang Ning coming, Xiaoya Orc looked up and then looked at Jian Mo: "Doctor Jian Mo, can you be gentle?"

Jian Mo said gently: "Okay, baby, be brave and don't struggle, okay? Okay? I'll get it done soon."

Xiaoya Orc nodded vigorously: "Doctor Jian Mo, hurry up!"

Jian Mo quickly pricked the knuckles of Xiaoya Orc's palm, releasing tissue fluid and turning it black. He squeezed the blood beads a few more times and said, "Okay. What a brave baby."

The little orc man breathed a sigh of relief and raised a smile.

Jian Mo took off his gloves, searched in the basket, and took out three digestion pills wrapped in dead leaves from an animal skin bag: "Take it once tonight, once tomorrow morning and once tomorrow night. It should be fine." That's about it. Eat lightly these two days and don't eat too much meat, especially bacon."

Xiaoya Orcman's father nodded repeatedly: "Thank you, Doctor Jian Mo."

Jian Mo touched Xiaoya Orcman's head and started eating again. Putting on gloves: "You're welcome, go back."

Kuang Ning saw that there was no one else waiting around, and sat on the chair opposite Jian Mo: "Doctor Jian Mo."

Jian Mo curled his eyes and smiled: "You Are you back?"

Kuang Ning nodded and sighed: "I've only been out for a few days, and the tribe has changed a lot."

Jian Mo: "Is there something wrong with you?"

Kuang Ning rolled up his sleeves . : "I've been getting pimples for the past two years. It's a little itchy when I scratch it, but it's fine when I don't scratch it."

Jian Mo looked at his arm, and there was indeed a small pimple on it.

The pimple was red with a small dot at the top, and there were scratch marks on his arm, one after another.

The problem of pimples is mostly just a symptom. There are many real causes of pimples. On earth, they can be ruled out through various tests, but in this world, it is really difficult.

After checking carefully, Jian Mo thought for a while: "You said that I have been getting pimples in the past two years, so it didn't happen before?"

Kuang Ning nodded repeatedly: "Yes, it didn't happen before, but it suddenly started growing last summer. Just now. When it grows, it grows in large areas, even on the face. Later, it gets better. It only grows on the body and occasionally on the face, but it has never gone away. "

It may be a hormone problem, or it may be . It's the food.

Jian Mo thought for a while: "Did you suddenly find a new food last summer?"

Kuang Ning suddenly became excited: "Yes, yes, we found the soft thorn fruit. Is it a problem with the soft thorn fruit? But everyone Everyone ate it, and there was no problem with it. I just kept getting pimples after eating it. "

Jian Mo: "Everyone is different. You may be allergic to this kind of fruit. Are you still eating this kind of fruit?

" Ning was a little embarrassed: "The shell of this fruit can be used to remove the fishy smell, and the cooked meat tastes good."

Jian Mo: "Then it may be the problem with this fruit. You should stop eating this fruit for a while. Let's see when the time comes."

Kuang Ning: "Is it that simple?"

Jian Mo: "Let's try it first, let's see how our luck is."

Jian Mo took out a piece from the basket and used it. Soap wrapped in leaves: "If you take a bath in the past two days, you can use this thing to wash. After soaking in water, apply it on your body, and then keep rubbing your body. After rubbing, just rinse it with clean water."

Kuang Ning: "Oh, okay Okay. Doctor Jian Mo, what should I give you?" Jian

Mo looked up and smiled: "Just give me two pieces of bacon."

Kuang Ning: "I'll get it for you right away!"

He wanted to stay in the Qinhai tribe for one more day to see everyone's doctor, but he didn't expect that he couldn't leave on the third day.

In such a large tribe, everyone has all kinds of little problems.

Toothache, skin diseases, cold legs, inability to sleep, hair loss... Jian Mo can't actually solve most of them, but can only provide some slight relief.

Despite this, the people of the Qinhai tribe were still very satisfied and very grateful to him.

On the afternoon of the third day, after Jian Mo treated the people who came here to see the patients, he specially took Wu Jiong to find Shu Guang, the leader of the Qinhai tribe, and told him that there were no more patients for the time being and that they were going to go back tomorrow.

Shu Guang also went to Jian Mo for massage in the past two days, which relieved the pain in his back. He was very grateful to him and repeatedly said that he would send it to them tomorrow.

Jian Mo declined politely, saying that they would go back on the Winged Beast and there was no need to send him off.

The diet of the flying-winged beast is similar to that of the people of the Qinhai tribe. In the past two days, the people of the Qinhai tribe ate one portion for the flying-winged beast.

This guy ate hundreds of meals, rarely had a good time, and was quite happy. He hung out with a group of bear cubs from the Qinhai tribe every day.

Jian Mo saw that the winged beast could retract its claws and tail very well and had no intention of hurting anyone. Moreover, the bear cubs of the Qinhai tribe were also very agile and would not be hurt by the winged beast, so he taught them how to play. Be careful now and don't worry about it anymore.

Now the two parties have initially settled their relationship and are getting along quite well.

After Jian Mo saw the flying-winged beast, he returned to the cave where he temporarily lived and counted the supplies he had collected in the past few days.

The supplies he collects from each patient are not that much, but they are piled up quite a lot. He may have to work hard to tweet that guy when he goes back tomorrow.

Just as Jian Mo and Wu Jiong were sorting supplies, someone called them outside: "Doctor Jian Mo, leader of the Wu Jiong clan?"

Jian Mo heard the voice sounded familiar and shouted directly outside: "We are here, come in directly.

" But it was Kuang Ning.

Kuang Ning's face was full of excitement: "Dr. Jian Mo, the pimples I have are indeed caused by the soft thorn fruit. I haven't eaten the husk of the soft thorn fruit in the past two days. No new pimples have grown on my body, and the original pimples have also disappeared. Almost."

Jian Mo stood up and said, "That's great, let me see."

Kuang Ning immediately rolled up her sleeves and showed him: "Look, the pimple has become smaller."

Jian Mo saw that the skin on Kuang Ning's arm had changed. It had to be smoothed, and the original small bumps had subsided to the size of goosebumps and there were no scratches on the body. It was probably not itchy anymore, and I was very happy for him: "You may really be allergic to soft thorn fruits, try not to eat them in the future. Kuang Ning: "

I won't eat it! It's been tormenting me for the past two years. It's always itchy and it doesn't look good."

Jian Mo patted his shoulder and comforted silently.

Kuang Ning put down his sleeves and said to Jian Mo with bright eyes: "Doctor Jian Mo, don't you want big leaf garlic this time? I know how to remove most of the bitter taste from big leaf garlic!"

Jian Mo looked at it in surprise. Looking at him.

Kuang Ning smiled and said, "You helped me cure this problem. I have nothing else to thank you for. I just want to teach you this."

Jian Mo: "Is this your secret recipe?"

Kuang Ning: "It's okay. As long as you don't tell anyone else. You guys come with me to our cave and I'll teach you?"

Jian Mo hesitated for a moment. He really liked the scent of garlic. Now that he had this opportunity, he couldn't miss it, so he agreed. : "Okay, thank you."

Kuang Ning: "You're welcome, come and sit in our cave, I'll treat you to big leaf garlic barbecue."

Kuang Ning took Jian Mo and Wu Jiong back to his home In the cave.

Although he has been partnered with an orc for many years, he still has no cubs. The two of them live a life of two, which is quite easy.

Their cave is also clean, tidy, and very big.

As soon as Jian Mo entered, he saw that the walls of the cave were decorated with cloth and there were various embroidered patterns on the decorations. He couldn't help but said, "Your cave is so beautiful!"

Kuang Ning immediately wanted to take some clothes from the wall. Taking off the cloth: "Send it to you."

Jian Mo stopped him quickly: "Hey, how can this be done?"

Kuang Ning: "We exchanged this for bacon from other tribes. We can exchange it again after a while. "Although the fabric hanging on the wall will be smoked, it can be washed after being smoked. It is better than smoking the cave, which is really difficult to deal with."

Jian Mo said for his life wisdom . Liked it, but firmly declined: "Indeed. But you don't have to give it to us. We also have a lot of fabrics at home. I will find them and decorate them when I get back."

Kuang Ning saw that he really didn't accept it and didn't force it, so he said with appreciation. : "I like to make the cave beautiful, the place to live is beautiful, and the people are in a good mood."

Everyone narrowed the distance with a few words. Kuang Ning took them to sit by the firepit and went outside to find the frozen things. Meat: "Part of our meat is marinated and then frozen. It's very flavorful and delicious when grilled."

Jian Mo gave a thumbs up: "I do the same thing sometimes."

Kuang Ning smiled brightly: "Really? Sometimes I want to bake it without thawing it, just put it on the fire and bake it. The meat will be very juicy and very tender."

Kuang Ning's friend took the meat and put it on the stone slab to bake, while Kuang Ning found a place to bake it. I washed the pot and brought in a handful of frozen large-leaf garlic roots.

Kuang Ning showed it to Jian Mo: "We also wash these large-leaf garlic roots and then freeze them. I process them when I am used to using them, so that their fragrance will be stronger. Once they are processed and left for a while, their The fragrance will be much less, I don't know why?" Jian

Mo said: "It is volatile. After treatment, the scented substances will basically escape into the air."

He understood, and said with a smile: "Anyway, it needs to be cooked and used immediately. In fact, it is very simple to remove the bitterness inside, just fry it. After frying until golden and crispy, pick up the roots of the large leaf garlic and use it separately. No need, the bitter taste of the garlic root is all in the oil."

Jian Mo suddenly realized: "That's it!"

Kuang Ning smiled: "It's just that simple. When cutting the garlic roots, you need to chop them up and wash them, otherwise they will become bitter when fried, and the bitterness cannot be removed with oil. " Jian Mo

: "It will be bitter when fried."

: "Yes!"

There is no technical content in frying the roots of garlic. All you need to do is wash them, chop them up, and fry them patiently in a pan.

After deep frying, the aroma is really filling the hole, and the rich aroma of onion and garlic is very attractive.

Kuang Ning watched while frying: "When the weather is warm, we will fry outside. When it's cold, we have no choice but to make do in the cave. But after the frying, open the window and the smell will be dispersed."

They said. The cave also has windows. Just like the riverside tribe before, a large wooden board is used to block the windows, even if the windows are closed.

Seeing that it was almost fried, Kuang Ning picked up the roots of large-leaf garlic and put it in a stone pound. Then he added a handful of coarse salt and while the inside was still hot, he crushed it into powder: "Look, this is The garlic spice we usually use."

Jian Mo took the spice powder he picked up and tasted it with his fingers: "It's amazing, this is indeed the spice powder I'm familiar with."

Kuang Ning smiled happily: "Yes. Yes, you can also add other spices to make it taste better. When eating barbecue, it tastes even better when used as a dip for meat."

Jian Mo gave him a thumbs up and said with admiration, "I learned it.

Chapter 60:

The meat marinated in noodles is grilled on the stone slab until it becomes sizzling with oil. The fat part is slightly curled and becomes transparent, while the thin part is browned and hard. The whole piece of barbecue emits a rich aroma.

Jian Mo looked at the barbecue in front of him and couldn't help but take a deep breath - it was really delicious.

Kuang Ning used chopsticks unskilledly to share the meat with everyone: "Your chopsticks are really easy to use, so you don't have to worry about burning your hands. Come on, dip some garlic powder in it while it's hot. It will taste better."

Jian Mo: "Then let's do it You're welcome."

Kuang Ning: "Try it quickly!"

Jian Mo was worried that the meat was too salty, so he just lightly dipped the meat in some garlic powder.

The garlic powder was stuck to the barbecued meat evenly by the grease. Jian Mo took a bite, and instantly the aroma of gravy, grease, and garlic powder burst out in her mouth, as if there was a symphony in her mouth.

Jian Mo was so burned that he hissed: "It's delicious! So fresh!"

Kuang Ning: "This is my favorite way to eat it. Two more pieces, eat the garlic powder barbecue until full in one go, and then drink a glass of ice to cool it down. The cold sweet leaf tea is really delicious."

Jian Mo: "Yes, the sweet leaf tea here is also delicious. I will bring some back when I go back."

Kuang Ning immediately said, "I have some at home. I will give them to you later ." You make some."

Jian Mo gave a thumbs up: "I'm satisfied, I'm really satisfied."

Kuang Ning is the kind of person who is very enthusiastic about his friends. After finishing the barbecue, he actually collected all the sweet leaves from home. Come out, stuff it into the big basket, and let Jian Mo and Wu Jiong take it with them.

Jian Mo asked: "You gave it all to me, what should I do with my family?"

Kuang Ning: "What's the point? There are so many people in the tribe, I can just find someone to exchange for some later."

Jian Mo smiled: "Then I'm welcome By the way, this knife is for you."

Jian Mo took out the metal knife he carried with him and said, "Thank you for your hospitality."

Kuang Ning didn't expect that he would give her the knife, so she refused. He said: "This is too expensive."

Jian Mo smiled and put the knife into his hand: "It's okay. I'll go back to the tribe and fight again. Don't be polite to me."

Kuang Ning couldn't push it back, and it was too serious . Wanting this metal knife, he finally accepted it and said with bright eyes: "Then you come to our tribe next time, and I will share the delicious food with you!"

Jian Mo: "Okay, see you next time!"

Jian Mo and Wu Jiong spent a total of four days and three nights in the Qinhai tribe, and another two days and one night on the way back.

The whole process of going out took almost ten days.

As soon as they returned to the tribe, most of the tribe came to see them.

Qing Kuo said: "I thought you wouldn't come back until spring."

Jian Mo rarely heard the strangeness in people, smiled and hugged Qing Kuo's shoulders: "That can't be done, if you don't come back, we will miss the tribe so much that we can't sleep. "

Banjiu meowed from the side and hooked Jian Mo's calf with his long tail: "Brother Jian Mo, we miss you too."

Jian Mo bent down and picked up the larger long-haired cat. , smiled and said: "Then you want to go back with us and see what good things we got back?"

Banjiu: "Meow, yes!"

Jian Mo and the others brought two large baskets of garlic garlic roots and one large basket. Sweet leaves and some cloth, animal skins, cured meat, stones, etc.

Fortunately, the roots and sweet leaves are not heavy, otherwise Chiu Chiu would be very tired carrying things back from such a long distance.

Jian Mo took out the things one by one and showed them to everyone, and specially opened the fried and ground large-leaf garlic powder for everyone to smell: "This is the spice we are looking for. Does it smell particularly fragrant to you?"

After everyone smelled it, they all said: "Smells!"

Ye Luo said: "It smells really good. Your trip is really worth it."

Jian Mo: "I think so too."

The people in the tribe followed them at their home They chatted for a while and then went back.

Jian Mo specially invited Qing Kuo's family, Min Dang's family and Ye Luo to stay and eat barbecue. After the garlic powder is fried, the aroma will slowly evaporate and it will not be so delicious after being left for a long time. It is better to finish it with friends quickly.

It happened that Jian Mo and the others had not been back for several days, and there were not many ingredients left at home. Everyone went home and brought vegetables and meat to barbecue together.

Jian Mo cut some grass in the back mountain and steamed some starch dough, planning to use it with barbecue.

Jian Mo took a special look at the situation in Ranwu and asked him to transform back into his beast form in the yard.

This little cub with hair loss has basically returned to normal. Although the hair has not completely grown back, you can see a lot of new little fluff. I believe that after a while, he will be able to completely get rid of the problem of hair loss.

After Jian Mo looked at it, he happily said to Ranwu: "You are recovering well, keep up the good work, and eat more today."

Ranwu was a little shy: "Thank you, Brother Jian Mo."

As his body improved, Ranwu's mentality Most of the problems have been solved. Apart from being a little shy, he is not much different from other orc boys.

Min Dang also thanked Jian Mo: "Thanks to you, our life can get better."

Jian Mo waved his hand: "Stop talking about this, let's go inside and eat meat!"

Although he had eaten it in the Qinhai tribe and on the road Big leaf garlic powder barbecue, Jian Mo's interest in big leaf garlic powder barbecue has not diminished at all.

Everyone placed the stone slab on the fire pit and sat down around it.

Jian Mo greeted: "Quick, quick, let's eat."

Qing Kuo: "We have to wait until the meat is cooked."

Jian Mo: "It will be cooked soon. By the way, this time we go to the Qinhai tribe, I will I gave away my knife. If the tribe is making knives during this period, can you give me a new one?" There

is nothing to do in the winter. The furnace in the tribe is always on, but Jian Mo doesn't go there to do much. The work was done by the orcs in the tribe, with Dejiang responsible for coordination and Qingkuo occasionally visiting.

Qing Kuo agreed: "Okay, but you have to give Banjiu a piece of metal as big as his paw as reward."

Jian Mo had stored a hundred baskets of metal in the cave and hadn't used it much, so he didn't care about this expenditure at all. He said boldly: "No problem, you can take it yourself."

After saying that, Jian Mo couldn't wait to start eating the meat.

Well, the golden-roasted meat is delicious and fragrant when dipped in garlic powder!

After eating the meat, eat some fresh and tender tendons, the taste is even more amazing.

Jian Mo ate two pieces of pure meat, sandwiched a translucent starch pancake, rolled it with barbecued meat and tendon, and stuffed it into his mouth. It had a completely different flavor.

It feels so good to have both meat and starch.

Jian Mo ate so hard that his eyes narrowed.

He not only ate it himself, but also gave it to Wu Jiong Roll next to him.

He didn't care about the teasing looks from the people around him. Anyway, everyone knew that he and Wu Jiong were in love. What happened to taking care of his lover?

Qing Kuo: "This garlic powder tastes really good. It tastes delicious no matter how you eat it."

Jian Mo: "Yes, I'll share it with you after I finish processing it. Sprinkle a little on it when you eat barbecue or something. It will taste amazing."

The method of processing big-leaf garlic is considered a secret of the Kuang Ning family. Jian Mo promised him to keep it a secret and could not give this secret recipe to others. However, after it was processed, it was okay to share it with others.

Qing Kuo: "Then I'll wait. In the past few days when you were away, our family dug some hair roots, and I will send them to you later."

Jian Mo: "The hair roots are really good things. After two days of rest, we can go outside After the snow melts a little, we have to dig out the hairy roots."

Hearing them talk about the hairy roots, Min Dang suddenly said: "I saw another kind of powder when I was in the Mengshui tribe, and it is also delicious when used to make cakes."

Jian Mo suddenly became interested and asked: "What kind of powder?"

Min Dang gestured: "It seems to be powder ground from a very small seed. Our family has never used it, but I have a friend who has. The taste is a little different from hairy root starch, but the texture is similar."

Jian Mo: "Seeds? Do we have those seeds in our tribe?"

Min Dang hesitated and said, "I don't know until I go to the Mengshui tribe tomorrow. Ask?"

Jian Mo waved his hands quickly: "No, it's too troublesome, I'll just ask."

Min Dang smiled: "It doesn't matter, I haven't been to the Mengshui tribe for a while. See my friends."

Ranwu looked up and said, "Abba, I want to go too." Qingkuo said

, "If we don't wait for two days, we will go to the Mengshui tribe to exchange things."

Let's start with the matter of going to Mengshui Tribe.

Jian Mo shook his head and said no more. They had just come back and they needed a rest.

Everyone offered to help them bring things, and Jian Mo was not polite and said several things in succession.

After dinner, everyone stayed to help them clean up inside and outside the house, and then left after tidying up.

Jian Mo and Wu Jiong boiled water to take a bath.

The Qinhai tribe treated them quite well, but they were not as comfortable as they were at home.

They need a bath and a good sleep in a warm, soft bed.

After going out and then coming back, Jian Mo found that there were really many things going on at home and outside.

As soon as he and Wu Jiong got busy, they quickly forgot about the kind of fans that Min Dang had mentioned.

Until that day, Jian Mo and Wu Jiong came back from digging the hair roots.

Jian Mo was lying on the giant wolf, and even when he arrived at the tribe, he was still playing with his ears.

The giant wolf was good-tempered and let him play with it, but when its ears were itchy, the thick ears would "snap" back against the scalp or pop out of Jian Mo's hands.

Jian Mo reached out to catch the ear. After catching it, he continued to wait for the giant wolf to hide, and then continued playing, enjoying it endlessly.

He had a great time, with a smile on his face all the time, and even kissed the wolf's ears after he caught it.

Just when Jian Mo smiled and stepped forward, gently biting the giant wolf's ear to prevent him from hiding, he suddenly saw a person standing at the door of his house out of the corner of his eye.

Jian Mo didn't know if the other party saw him playing with the giant wolf, so he sat up straight in embarrassment.

The person coming is Min Dang.

Min Dang said, "You guys are back? I exchanged some of the fans I mentioned earlier from my friends. Can you guys see if it's what you want?"

Jian Mo had already forgotten this matter and was a little agitated after hearing this. He said guiltily: "Thank you very much. Just wait a moment. I will take off the hair roots and come over to take a look."

Min Dang said with a smile: "No rush, you come down slowly."

Jian Mo slid off the giant wolf, He trotted to the door and saw that Min Dang's lips were a little blue from the cold. He couldn't help but said: "It's such a cold day, don't wait outside next time. Please ask someone to bring us a message, and we'll find it when we get back." "You 're here."

Min Dang said, "It's okay. It's getting dark soon. I guess you guys will be back soon."

Jian Mo quickly opened the door and invited Min Dang to come in and sit down: "Sit down first and warm yourself up. We'll be there soon." Come on."

Min Dang went over to help remove the hair roots: "You're welcome, I'm not too cold."

After finishing cleaning up, Jian Mo asked Min Dang to sit down at the table by the window and poured him some tea. Every day, I'm too busy."

"Understood." Min Dang took out a small bag from the basket on his back, "This is the powder I told you."

Jian Mo opened the bag and found a small bag of gray-yellow powder. , it looks quite delicate, and it does look like flour. It smells like a plant-specific aroma, with a light bitter taste.

There are few artificially cultivated plants here, and the plants growing naturally have a somewhat unique flavor.

Jian Mo poured a little powder lightly, put it in the palm of his hand and tasted it.

The powder actually tastes a bit like mung bean powder. Although it is a bit bitter, it is not that weird bitter taste and tastes good.

Min Dang observed Jian Mo's expression: "It's more troublesome to get this kind of powder. Not many people like it. My friend's house only has these. If you want, I'll ask for you."

Jian Mo waved his hands repeatedly: "No, no, no. It's too hard. When we finish eating this bag of flour, um, let's ask ourselves."

Mindang: "Fun, I don't know who owns the flour, but this flour is produced by the Qinhai tribe. If you want it, it might be more convenient to go directly to the Qinhai tribe to get it. "

I didn't expect it to be a product of the Qinhai tribe, but seeing that they have a large grassland, it doesn't seem surprising.

Jian Mo nodded: "Okay, we'll make a trip if you want. You really helped us a lot, thank you so much."

Min Dang: "You're welcome, it's just a matter of convenience."

After Min Dang finished speaking, he was about to go back. Jian Mo felt so sorry that he stuffed him with a large jar of large-leaf garlic powder and a large piece of meat, and asked him to take it back to eat to replenish Ranwu's body.

After Min Dang left, Jian Mo couldn't help but take out the flour and look at it.

Wu Jiong had already placed the hair roots. Seeing that he kept looking around, he asked, "Do you want to do something with this flour?"

Jian Mo had a lot of things he wanted to do. After thinking about it over and over, he finally said, "How about I Roll out some noodles?"

Wu Jiong: "How? I'll help you."

Jian Mo was not very familiar with making noodles, so he could only add water and knead the dough according to the method he remembered.

After kneading the dough, Jian Mo found a relatively straight piece of wood, smoothed it with a black metal knife, then made it into a rolling pin, rolled the dough into sheets, and then cut it into small strips.

Wu Jiong looked at the noodles: "It's amazing."

The more Jian Mo made, the more he felt that this was the noodles in his memory, and he became more excited: "This is just the first step, the magic is behind. I'll make delicious noodles first. Braised noodles. "

If you want to talk about delicious noodles, it must be meat.

After eating so many barbecues, it was time for some stew. Jian Mo went to the place in the backyard where the meat was frozen. He picked out a piece of meat that was three to three fat and seven to thin. He blanched it first, then added seasoning powder and put it in a stone pot. simmering slowly in it.

To go with this piece of noodles, Jian Mo also took out the remaining pickled vegetables at home, fried them and put them aside.

I went on a night journey to the back mountain to dig some grass and use it as a vegetable to eat with noodles later.

Wu Jiong saw how busy he was inside and outside the house, and realized that he really valued the noodles, so he also worked with him, and even went to a neighbor's house to borrow bird eggs.

They had dinner very late. It felt like most of the people in the tribe were asleep before they started eating dinner.

Jian Mo took out two pottery soup basins, first put animal oil, shellfish powder, pepper powder, garlic powder and other seasonings, then scooped up two ladles of noodle soup and added them to two large bowls.

After adding the noodle soup, he scooped up the noodles and divided them evenly into two large bowls. Then he put a large spoonful of stewed meat into each large bowl, then put pickled vegetables and a cut-up soft-boiled bird egg. A small handful of tender yellow grass.

Jian Mo carefully held the noodle bowl: "Let's go to the table to eat."

Wu Jiong: "Okay."

Jian Mo also specially brought the oil lamp over, and also took the dried flowers off the shelf and put them on the table. After feeling full of ritual, I started to prepare to eat noodles.

As soon as the noodles entered his mouth, they were hot, smooth and chewy. The noodles were full of fragrant and wrapped in soup. They were different from any food he had tasted here. Instead, they were 80% similar to braised pork noodles on Earth.

Jian Mo blinked in the hot steam of the noodle soup, and her tears fell into the noodle soup.

Wu Jiong walked over and gently held his shoulders: "Are you homesick?"

Jian Mo sniffed and wiped away his tears with the back of his hand: "I thought I didn't want to. Anyway, my relatives are no longer here, but actually I still I think so. The noodles are similar to what I had at our place."

Wu Jiong didn't know how to comfort him, so he came over and pressed his forehead against his.

Jian Mo calmed down first: "It's okay, I just felt a little homesick suddenly. I can't go back home, so it's good to eat a bowl of noodles. It's so delicious."

This kind of exquisite carbohydrate may be nothing on earth, but here it's like nothing. It's a delicious delicacy, much more precious than all kinds of animal meat.

Jian Mo pushed Wu Jiong: "You can eat it too, it's so delicious."

Wu Jiong put a chopstick of noodles into Jian Mo's bowl: "Okay, you eat more."

Jian Mo sniffed: "I've had enough. Come and try our noodles."

Jian Mo looked at Wu Jiong expectantly.

Wu Jiong picked up a chopstick of noodles, tasted it, and gave a serious evaluation: "It's delicious, the noodles are smooth, the braised meat is soft and waxy, the tendons are fresh, and it tastes very strange when paired with the slightly sour pickles." " Jian

Mo: "Drink some more soup and some noodles. It will feel better."

Wu Jiong picked up the bowl and took a sip of the soup. He swallowed the hot noodle soup and sighed, "It feels good."

Said: "Yeah. I feel that the highest state of food is to soothe people's hearts."

After saying that, Jian Mo also picked up the bowl and took a sip of noodle soup, and then said: "It's worth it."
