Chapter 21

There is bear meat and half a skin in the cave, as well as a basket of fish.

Because of the attraction of hibernating bears in the afternoon, Zhuo Yan did not dare to be lazy at night. He and A Yin worked until very late. After dealing with the smell, he closed the cave door. Zhuo Yan was still worried and took the wooden board and stone pot top. Behind the cave door, the skin was wrapped in firewood ash.

After finishing everything, I was almost exhausted, and actually a little frightened.

It was the first time he had seen such an attack and hunting. It was a real life-or-death situation. Compared with the first time he saw A Yin catching a toothed pig, today, that was nothing. Later, the patrol team in the tribe even attacked, and the toothed pig was gone. .

Just like he kills chickens and fishes.

Today there are two bears - Zhuo Yan can feel the killing intent even from a long distance away. It is really the law of the jungle. Several elders are experienced and huge in stature, especially Ada's grandmother, who can also change shapes during the battle. , holding a weapon in his hand.

He is very powerful and brave. No wonder Ada would have time to visit Qiao when she was spending the winter. His grandmother was so powerful, so she should be assured of safety in the cave, and there must be a lot of food in stock.

Zhuo Yan thought about it. He didn't know that he looked calm now, but there was still fear in his eyes. Ah Yin noticed it after returning to the cave. Is his brother afraid? Don't be afraid, brother, he will protect him. If -

those bears eat him, don't eat him.

In the evening, he ate all the potatoes without processing the meat or fish. Zhuo Yan got up on the stone bed early, and Ah Yin followed him. He was already used to it, but today Ah Yin was very clingy, even more clingy than before, rubbing his head against his. Neck, and licking his head.

Zhuo Yan couldn't muster the energy and joked, so he let A Yin lick his hair. His scalp felt a little electric. After licking for a while, his head, which had been thinking about the scene in confusion, relaxed first.

"Today... luckily everyone is here."

"If the smell of fish attracts bears, you and I-" Uh-huh.

Ah Yin: Lick, lick, lick!

Zhuo Yan: ...You lick your brother and I'm on my lips.

So the feeling disappeared, and Zhuo Yan looked at Ah Yin seriously at this moment. He was actually thinking about why Ah Yin licked his mouth, why not lick other places, but licking the mouth was not good, he was still a virgin, and he didn't even take the first kiss. However, she met Ah Yin's blue eyes, which were filled with worry for him.

Zhuo Yan: Education cannot open its mouth.

But Ah Yin, you are not allowed to lick me again!

Zhuo Yan reached out and held Ah Yin's mouth. It was Ah Yin's turn to moan, and the tense and serious atmosphere suddenly turned into funny. Zhuo Yan's eyebrows were curved, and he let go of his hand and touched A Yin's cheek, "Are you worried about me?"

"Ooooooo~" Ayin rubbed her brother.

Zhuo Yan unconsciously stroked his fur, "Actually, I was a little scared. Even though it was such a long distance, the bear ran really fast and it was so big. If Ada hadn't attracted the bear first, we would have had trouble running. "It's also very dangerous. It's the first time I've faced this situation head-on."

Ah Yin stretched out her head to lick her brother's chin and smooth his hair, without fear.

"What should I say? If the hail really woke up the hibernating bears, and the smell of fish attracted the bears, and we didn't ask Sister Qiao and others to come fishing today, would the bears just run to our door? But Ada and Xiao Xian Both brothers were injured,

so I feel embarrassed to have taken the bear meat..." "But Ada is so majestic and powerful. I was speechless when it came to dividing our meat."

"Okay, I don't want to anymore . "In a few days, let's go see Xiao Xian's two brothers and Ada."

Ah Yin nodded, he listened to his brother, and rubbed his neck, brother, don't be afraid, he opened his mouth and growled, he thought. Tell your brother that if a bear comes and eats him first, he can just stay in the hole. He will fight to the death to protect his brother.

There was a series of urgent growls. Zhuo Yan couldn't understand what A Yin wanted to say, but he probably knew that A Yin comforted and cared about him, so he touched A Yin's ear and said: "I've finished telling you, I don't pretend that things are much better." "Go to sleep."

"Let's eat boiled fish and barbecue tomorrow."

The advantage of nagging A Yin before going to bed is that Zhuo Yan didn't have nightmares that night. It was even a good dream. In the dream, Ah Yin was just like Ada's grandmother. She was in the shape of a huge beast, two or three meters tall. She was very majestic. Although she couldn't transform into a human form, she was very powerful and carried her every day. He went to the forest, across the prairies, and ran.

There is no snow, it is the breath of spring, the wind is very comfortable, but it is a bit wet.

Soggy?

Zhuo Yan opened his eyes and felt the tongue on the hair on his forehead froze, followed by A Yin carefully licking it again. Zhuo Yan:? ? ?

"Ah Yin," Zhuo Yan said with a smile.

Ah Yin licked her more enthusiastically, "Good morning, brother, did you sleep well?"

"Okay, okay. If you want to lick the bald part, don't lick the hair."

Ah Yin was very smart and quickly licked her brother's cheeks and chin. Zhuo Yan:...

"Get up and wash your face. I really thank you. Ah Yin. "

A Yin rubs against my brother. You're welcome." Zhuo Yan was funny and had no temper. He stretched out, got up with A Yin, and opened the cave door first. It snowed again outside last night, but it was not heavy, and it only reached the height of the calf.

There is a cold smell of ice and snow in the air, and there is no smell of blood. However, the smell in the cave is a bit strong. Zhuo Yan plans to get rid of everything today - clean up the fish's internal organs and throw them away far away, as well as the half. A piece of bear skin, actually half a piece, is already very big.

Like a 1.8 meter quilt.

This time, Zhuo Yan wanted to soak the skin for a few more days, slowly remove the fat and flesh, and then tan...

After two days of busy work, the snow was lighter today. Zhuo Yan took A Yin to see Brother Xiao Xian and A Da. In the Xiaoxian Cave that we went to first, Xiaoxian was in much better spirits and had a smile on his face. Zhuo Yan knew that his brother was probably fine.

"...Hmph, they bullied me in the morning." Although Xiao Xian said this, he was still happy, "My father said that when spring comes, the eldest brother and the second brother will be fine."

"As long as it's okay." Zhuo Yan nodded, Some didn't know what to say: "Actually, the smell of fish may cause the bears-"

"I know, my father said it." Xiao Xian nodded happily, "Although the eldest brother and the second brother were injured, if we didn't go there, we wouldn't be able to eat. It's time to eat fish, and we eat barbecue every day, and now there's also bear meat. Brother Zhuo Yan, you must be careful if you handle fish in the future."

Zhuo Yan hummed, but he didn't expect Xiao Xian to know about it and turn around and care about him.

"Then I'll go find Sister Qiao first."

Compared with Xiao Xian, who was more careless and didn't see Zhuo Yan's guilt, Qiao quickly understood and took Zhuo Yan to Ada Cave. Because it was a bit far, the two chatted on the way. Said: "Zhuo Yan, don't blame yourself for the bear."

"In those few days, there was almost no food in our cave. You were still thinking about us when you saw the fish. You regarded us as your partners. You went out to look for food." Yes, there is always danger, and the danger is even greater in winter."

"Ada's injury is a bit serious, but Ada's mother and father are taking care of him. I want to wait until winter is over. We have agreed to wait until he recovers from his injury. Let's get married and go get some holes."

Qiao's face showed determination and happiness, "I have the courage to get married with Ada."

Zhuo Yan understands what Qiao means by courage. When danger comes, Ada rushes in front of Qiao, and Qiao is also worried about Ada, and may be more determined to end his relationship with his partner.

Anxiety before marriage may exist in all eras, right?

Move out of the cave where you grew up, marry another orc, find a new place to dig a cave, and live together in the future. The concept of the Leopard Man tribe is that after getting married, the first priority is your own cave and your partner.

But Ada is indeed a good orc worthy of a companion.

Zhuo Yan nodded and affirmed, "Bless you and Ada, you will have a good life."

"Thank you." A relaxed smile appeared on Qiao's face, and he looked behind Zhuo Yan and said, "Same for you. That time. It's dangerous. Ah Yin was the first one to rush in front of you. Zhuo Yan, I won't worry about you anymore. Although Ah Yin can't take human form, he is a good orc and a good companion. "

Zhuo Yan: Huh?

...How to explain this? Zhuo Yan didn't want to hurt Ah Yin's heart. Ah Yin was very protective of him that day, so he could only smile and say: "A Yin and I are not adults yet, he is my brother, haha."

Qiao said with a look on his face 'I understand' look.

Zhuo Yan: What do you know? Sister Qiao! Why are you so shy? !

Ada was the most seriously injured, with injuries to his abdomen and chest. When they passed by, Ada's father received them. Ada's father is a sub-orc, a very thin and handsome man in his mid-twenties. The cave is clean, Ada's wounds are also treated, and a layer of herbs is applied.

Ada found this when she went out a few days ago.

I heard it can stop bleeding.

When Zhuo Yan heard this, his eyes lit up. It turned out that there were herbs to stop bleeding. He thought of his own Ah Yin who had to bear it at that time - Ah Yin was really lucky in life. He couldn't help but plucked up the courage to ask. Unexpectedly, Ada's grandmother took out He bought the herbal medicine and told him where it was, saying: "That's the territory of the mammoths. Don't go there. If the orcs go there -"

Ada's eyes fell on Ayin.

"You'd better not need it anymore, it's very dangerous." Ada spoke directly.

Zhuo Yan understood the degree of danger and it was not a place he and Ah Yin could go. He couldn't help but ask carefully: "Can't we plant this kind of medicinal herbs near the tribe?"

"Ah?" Ada's mother was confused this time, "Planting? This "How?"

Zhuo Yan gestured, "Just like mud beans, this herb can be planted in the soil, right?"

Ada's mother said she didn't understand and gave Zhuo Yan one. He waved his hand away and explained: This herb has been there for a long time and cannot be planted. It needs seeds, but he doesn't know when this herb will produce seeds.

"I don't understand what you said, so forget it." Ada did not force her to give.

After staying at Ada's house for a while, Zhuo Yan said goodbye and took Ah Yin out. Qiao and Ada whispered for a while, and then followed Zhuo Yan. When they went back together, Qiao continued the topic just now and said: "How do you grow mud beans?"

"??? Then where do the mud beans in the tribe come from?" Zhuo Yan was curious.

Qiao: "It grows there, and there are many of them every year. Can this mud bean be planted? Zhuo Yan, you haven't told me what planting is."

"It's something edible that grows in the ground, Nitou. As long as we find the seeds of taro or dudu fruit, we can plant them in the soil and wait for them to grow."

Qiao slowly opened his eyes after hearing this, and it took him a long time to understand what Zhuo Yan meant by "planting." "But. The mud beans will rot if they fall into the soil."

"That's because the seeds have not been found. The mud beans need to be cultivated and forced to germinate. The seeds will germinate, and they will not fall to the ground. They need to be dug, buried and planted.

" "Yan, it's hard for me to think of what you said, but we can give it a try in the spring," said Joe.

"That's great!" Zhuo Yan agreed with Sister Qiao.

Qiao: "This way there will be more mud beans in the tribe in the future."

"You can also plant some on the gentle slope below my cave." Zhuo Yan quickly selected the location.

Everyone is looking forward to the arrival of spring.

It snowed again for a while, and although the patrol found no bears, they did find a lot of rabbits and guinea fowls. The orcs were a little disgusted with these two things, but they were better than nothing.

The supplies at Zhuo Yan's home are pretty good, and I haven't eaten much Dudu fruit all winter—Sister Qiao said that it is easy to store, and as long as the hard shell is not broken, it can be kept throughout the winter. Before winter, Zhuo Yan was advised not to eat it until the snow melted, then he could eat it again.

In other words: Eat Dudu fruit during your lean days.

In the tribe, everyone has survival wisdom derived from experience.

The orcs could also hunt and catch some meat to eat after spring started. At that time, there was only one sub-orc cave in Zhuoyan, so they had to rely on dudu fruits to survive.

None of Qiao and others expected that Zhuo Yan would pick up a white-haired boy in winter.

The last snow fell for a long time, for six or seven days, but the snow on the ground was not very thick. Standing in front of the cave entrance, Zhuo Yan seemed to feel something: "It seems that spring is really coming.

" The sound of water flowing, the thickness of the snow that never fell, the dead trees and grass seemed to be blooming in spring, the whole air was filled with the smell of melting ice and snow, and Zhuo Yan also felt the resurgence and strong vitality of all things on this continent.

He finally understood why Qiao and Ada didn't understand 'kind'.

Because this land is so full of life, whether it is animals or things growing in the ground, it nourishes all things. Grass seeds fall wherever the wind blows. When the ice and snow melt, it only takes time for the same flowers and plants to bloom.

Cut down trees will sprout branches.

The saplings dug out of the soil unevenly and grew at a speed visible to the naked eye, almost every day. No wonder when we were building the door, the forest of 'thin trees' was so densely packed that they could only grow upward due to lack of sunlight.

The tribe has grown for so many years, and the trees and vegetation have not been cut down.

A continent full of life.

After the snow stopped, Zhuo Yan opened the door and went to the river to wash up and fetch water. He was surprised to find that the grass in the grass field was not dead, and the yellow grass roots sprouted out. The greenery seems to break free from the old shackles and grow new grass stalks.

"We have a broom at home!"

Zhuo Yan planned to wait a few days so that the dead grass from the grass roots could be collected and then weaved into a broom. He grabbed the soil on the ground and couldn't help but sigh: "It's really a sacred land for planting."

During the long winter, rain and snow penetrated the land, and there was enough water to moisturize the soil for a whole year. This is a huge 'fertile field' .

Chapter 22

The ice and snow melted quickly, the river water surged, and the entire river surface became much wider.

Zhuo Yan has been busy with a lot of work recently. Not only him, but also the entire tribe has become 'alive'. Many sub-orcs came to the river early in the morning. They washed and fetched water, and the orcs formed patrols and hunting teams. Start the exchange rotation.

"Look, really, that sub-orc really raised a white-haired boy."

"His name is Zhuo Yan. Before the snow season, there was a sub-orc who kept showing his favor to the orc in Chun-"

"I remembered, it turns out That's him. Didn't you say that no orc in the whole tribe would like him?"

"So Zhuo Yan picked up the white-haired boy who was despised by everyone and no one wanted him." The

orcs chatted loudly and finally came up with this. The conclusion was obviously well-founded, and everyone believed it, because in the tribe, even if the sub-orcs lived alone, no one would want to pick up an animal and take it back to the cave.

And Zhuo Yan did it, which can only show that Zhuo Yan is hungry and not selective about food. Rough meaning.

"Hey, you guys are talking too loudly! His name is not Bai Maozai, now Zhuo Yan's younger brother is called A Yin." Aman rushed to the river first carrying the rattan basket and shouted loudly.

Zhuo Yan and Sister Qiao walked behind. They went back temporarily and forgot to take the bubble leaves. The only bubble leaves left, Shitou helped him hold the stone pot.

Today's task is to starch the dirty big leather at home and tan the bearskin.

A Yin was carrying a bear skin on his back. It was very thick and heavy. Zhuo Yan originally wanted to carry it on his back, but A Yin rubbed his legs and pushed his head against the bears skin enthusiastically, so the two of them turned around.

Before he reached the river, Zhuo Yan heard someone chattering about him and Ah Yin, but he was used to it and was too lazy to talk about it. At this time, Zhuo Yan stopped A Man and said, "Let's wash up here."

"I want to talk to them. Quarrel." Aman said.

Just have a little salty head.

This scene is a bit familiar, but it wasn't to defend him before. Zhuo Yan had a smile on his face, "Arguing is a waste of work time. Besides, after you finish arguing, they will talk to me again when they see you later."

While the few people were talking, they unloaded their things to the river.

"Then let them talk, you can also quarrel."

Zhuo Yan thought for a moment, "You're right." Not only Xiao Xian's furry ears were exposed - this kid got excited when he heard that there was going to be a quarrel.

Even Ah Yin also lowered his gaze, prepared a fighting posture, and looked at him with a look of 'Brother, if you say something, I will rush over and yell at them.'

Zhuo Yan: ...

"I've been very busy these days, let's quarrel another day."

Xiao Xian's ears drooped, and Ah Yin also put away his fighting posture, and followed his brother obediently to find a place to unload leather and work, without any hesitation in quarreling. .

"Okay, Zhuo Yan is right, come on." Qiao called out and asked a few people to take a seat, "There are stones here for washing and cooking."

Because Zhuo Yan cleaned the leather last year and it was very soft. , this year Qiao and others brought the leather from home - the ones that could be cleaned and replaced first, so they started scraping grease and soaking the leather by the river, and Zhuo Yan prepared bubble leaves and plant ash.

Everyone saw what Zhuo Yan did last year, so he worked very quickly this year.

While waiting for the skin to soak, Zhuo Yan collected the dry grass that had receded from the grass swing. This grass had experienced a winter of snow and water, but it didn't rot. The grass that fell to the ground and died was not counted.

"Brother Zhuo Yan, why are you collecting this?" Xiao Xian was curious.

"I want to make a broom to sweep away dirty things on the floor, but -" Zhuo Yan started rubbing three yellowed grass stalks in his hand, and pulled them hard, but they continued to work and were very resilient.

"These straw shoes are good, and they can be made into mats."

The straw shoes under his feet can't be considered 'shoes' at all. They are just straw sandals made of randomly twisted vines. The advantage is that the vine strips make a base that is hard but wear-resistant. The disadvantage is that the insteps are difficult to walk on. Not much heeling and foot grinding.

"Broom? Straw sandals? Mats? Shoes, I know, but if you use this grass, the shoes will break after a short time." Aman reminded.

Zhuo Yan: "How about using vines as soles and grass as uppers? Let me try it first."

Speaking of knitting, it must be Xiao Xian and Sister Qiao who are experts at handicrafts. Zhuo Yan also wants to ask Xiao Xian for advice. When Xiao Xian heard this, his excited furry ears came out again. Zhuo Yan was just about to reach out and touch the furry legs. A Yin rubbed his legs and held many straw stalks in his mouth to show him.

"Ah Yin is so good." Zhuo Yan's raised hand fell down and touched Ah Yin.

Aman saw it and curled his lips.

A fire was lit by the river, and the grass stalks needed drying.

Zhuo Yan provided ideas and even improved his previous plan, "Sister Qiao, can you wrap and weave a layer of soft grass bottom on the bottom of the vines, so that it can be easily replaced if it breaks? There are many straw poles anyway, so that the soles of the feet will not be particularly stressed. "

Qiao tried to follow Zhuo Yan's words and made some gestures with his hands. After understanding what Zhuo Yan meant, his eyes lit up, "Zhuo Yan, yes, you are so smart."

"Haha, you also need to be able to make up . , I was just imagining it."

Xiao Xian came over to see how Sister Qiao was making it up. He knew how to make it the same way before, but it wouldn't be the same if he replaced it with a new one. The same was true for Qiao, but Qiao used his brain and took it apart and started again. Come and ask Xiaoxian.

"Ah? Here, that..." Xiao Xian used to go out to work and play with Qiao and others. He didn't use his brain to think very much. His mantra was just to agree. Now when Qiao asked him, everyone looked at him. Xiao Xian thought hard, and his men and Qiao pondered the straw sandals Zhuo Yan mentioned.

Shitou and Aman went to the river to pick grass stalks and brought them back to dry for Qiao and Xiaoxian.

Zhuo Yan is sitting by the river, and he is not idle. He is not familiar with the technical work of straw sandals, but the broom is fine. This is very simple. The broom stick needs to be harder and longer, so that he does not have to bend down and be too tired. , you can place the repaired dry wooden sticks in the middle, wrap them with twisted straw sticks, and tie them firmly.

There in the grass.

Aman pulled Shi Shi, who was puzzled, "Why don't you go?" The two of them had already collected a thick bundle of straw.

"Look." Aman looked into the distance.

Shitou: "What are you looking at? Everyone is working."

"Look at that Ah Yin, what's so good about him? Just now Zhuo Yan wanted to touch Xiao Xian's ears, but that Ah Yin interrupted."

Shitou looked puzzled. "Zhuo Yan and A Yin are a couple now." "

Zhuo Yan is not an adult yet."

"In one more winter, Zhuo Yan will be an adult." Shitou looked at A Man, "You didn't hate Zhuo Yan very much before, I know you He changed his mind a long time ago. He is not a beast, but Zhuo Yan and A Yin are good. Do you like Zhuo Yan?"

Shitou changed his words and said very seriously, "Two sub-orcs can't eat enough together. Yes, you know this, and Aman, Zhuo Yan already has Ayin, don't do anything annoying."

Aman:! ! !

"What are you talking about, Zhuo Yan and me? How could this happen?"

Aman was fuming and Shitou didn't understand. Since Aman didn't like Zhuo Yan, why did he have a problem with Ayin and dislike Ayin? Aman was so angry that he put his hands on his hips and explained: "Zhuo Yan is very smart, brave, generous, and good to his partners."

"On the contrary, it's that white-haired boy - okay, okay, A Yin, okay, that A' Yin is not suitable for Zhuo Yan. When Zhuo Yan becomes an adult and wants a baby, how can Ah Yin give it to him?"

Shitou was lost in thought. What Aman said made sense, but this was Zhuo Yan's decision, and it was the decision of Zhuo Yan's cave. As partners, they don't seem to have too much control over things. Zhuo Yan will be unhappy.

"If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have delayed it." Aman was a little annoyed, "Before the snow season came last year, I thought Zhuo Yan would get better. As you know, my brother, I also wanted to introduce him to Zhuo Yan."

Shitou was startled, "Your brother has just transformed!"

"What's the matter? My brother will grow up. Wait a few years -"

"We have to wait at least four or five snow seasons."

Aman sighed, " Why is my brother so young? He is a serious orc after all. He will definitely make Zhuo Yan full of food."

"Aman, I think you should stop talking nonsense." Shitou patted Aman on the shoulder and asked Aman to look at the river. side.

At the river bank in the distance, Zhuo Yan put down his work, with a smile on his face, and rubbed A Yin's ears. A Yin spread his belly and rolled on the ground for Zhuo Yan to rub his belly.

After reading it, Aman came to a conclusion: "How can an orc touch his belly to a sub-orc? He is so unwary."

"...They are a couple, won't your mother touch your father?" Shitou asked.

Aman: "I haven't seen it."

Shitou couldn't tell Aman anymore, and finally he hugged the straw bundle and said, "Zhuo Yan is willing to accept your intention. This is what you mean. Aman shouldn't do things that make his friends hate him." , even if you think you are doing it for Zhuo Yan's sake."

"You said it, Zhuo Yan is very smart."

Aman sighed and followed him with the remaining straw in his arms, "I know what you said, but... Ah. Yin is still small. If he grows bigger and eats more, you know, beasts will eat a lot of meat. "

"It's better to be a beast. You can hunt and raise Zhuoyan. It's hard to eat mud beans every day.

" He stopped talking and said everything he just said. Aman beeped all alone, and finally decided to secretly ask Zhuo Yan to find out. If Zhuo Yan told him directly, he would never mention it again.

So that evening, around four o'clock, the gastrodia was dark.

Several people packed their things and went back to their homes. Zhuo Yan made a big broom and carried it on his shoulders. A Man stopped talking after he made the broom. His expression was in a daze. He looked at him secretly for a while, and then looked at him again. .

"If you want this broom, can I give you this first? I'll do it tomorrow."

It's just a day later to clean the hole. Zhuo Yan gave the broom to Aman and told Shitou that there was no need to give it to him. He could hold the stone pot by himself. "It's getting dark, you guys should go home quickly."

"Okay then." Shitou nodded.

Zhuo Yan was holding a stone pot and a rattan basket on his back, and A Yin was also carrying a heavy leather bag on his back.

"Let's go, Ah Yin, let's go home."

The people parted ways, and until they left, A Man didn't find a chance to talk. Who made Ah Yin stick to Zhuo Yan all the time? He couldn't find Zhuo Yan's free time at all. Zhuo Yan was going to pee, and A Man was about to follow, but A Yin followed first.

Damn it, damn it.

"Aman, can I use your broom?" Xiao Xian was curious, although he would do it again tomorrow.

Aman handed it to Xiao Xian, "You go ahead and play." He was thinking deeply, then his eyes lit up and he made a decision.

"I'll bring my brother here tomorrow."

Joe: "Why are you bringing your brother? Won't he learn to hunt from your father?"

"It's still cold these days, and there isn't much meat in the cave. Father doesn't have time. "Teach me, I'm going to hunt..."

Zhuo Yan put the leather on the crooked neck tree and rubbed the hair on Ah Yin's back. Because the leather was half wet, the hair on Ah Yin's back was also wet. He went back to wipe it after a while. Grill over the fire.

From stewing potatoes every day throughout the winter, dudu fruit has now become a staple food.

After dinner in the evening, Zhuo Yan and A Yin did not play backgammon in the cave. Instead, they ran out to play back and forth in front of the house, exercised, and went to the river to fetch water, scrubbed and went to bed.

At night, Ah Yin still circled her brother with her furry self.

Zhuo Yan: "It seems the temperature is a little higher." He felt hot.

A Yin looked at her brother, and Zhuo Yan couldn't say "stop hugging" when she met these eyes, "It's not very hot, it's impossible for summer to come just after winter ends, and it will still be cold in spring for a few days..." ..."

There is no late spring cold, and the spring in his imagination is also short-lived.

Zhuo Yan doesn't know yet. When I woke up the next day, I felt that the sun was stronger and the light was very good. After spending the whole winter in the cave, Zhuo Yan liked to stay outside, so he continued to the river with his things.

I even brought over the lunch of dudu fruit and fish.

Have a meal by the river at noon.

He and A Yin had just arrived, and Qiao and others also came over. It was still the same place, but there was a primary school boy in the team, a real primary school student, eleven or twelve years old, about one and four meters tall, with curly brown hair and skin It's quite white. Throughout the winter, everyone has become a lot whiter.

She has two small dimples when she smiles, double eyelids, wears a small leather skirt and waistcoat, and looks like a savage doll.

Who.

"Zhuo Yan, this is my brother." Aman said.

Zhuo Yan said yes, it turned out to be his little brother, so he greeted the child with a smile and asked the child enthusiastically if he had eaten. Ah Yin saw that her brother was very kind to the orc and clung to him tightly.

Aman saw that Zhuo Yan was very kind and enthusiastic to his younger brother, and he was relieved and a little happy. He felt that Zhuo Yan didn't like that A Yin very much. He had a chat with Zhuo Yan in the morning, and finally waited for a chat with Zhuo Yan. .

"Zhuo Yan, how is my brother?"

"He is very well-behaved and sensible, not a naughty kid." This is the highest praise.

Aman smiled and said, "That's good. Look, my brother is very good-looking. He is a little shorter now and will grow up in four or five snow seasons. Then take a look at my brother." "

? ? ?"ha? Look what your brother is doing.

"My brother listens to me very much. You are smart and kind. You and my brother should stay together. I will watch him hunt and make sure you won't go hungry-"

Zhuo Yan:! ! ! !

Dashaman, don't be rude again!

He's really not a big pervert!

...it's better to spread the scandal with Ah Yin.

"Aman, stop talking." Zhuo Yan spoke righteously, his face serious, "You don't want to be like this, your brother is not your toy, he is still young, you don't want to mess around, and, besides, I have Ah Yin. "

I like Ah Yin very much. No matter what happens to Ah Yin, I will never mate with another orc, no one!"

Don't make random arrangements for him!

Scared to cry.

A few meters away, in the grass, there was a silver tail swaying happily.

My brother said he likes him!

Ah Yin's eyes were shining.

Chapter 23

On the second day, Aman's brother didn't come. Zhuo Yan was relieved. When Xiao Xian saw him, he first chirped and said that the broom was very useful. Then Aman got down to business and said that the cleaning was very clean. My father likes it very much, but it is too short.

Zhuo Yan looked up at A Man, silently feeling sad, "Yesterday the broom was made according to my height." He is now underage, seventeen years old, and looks 1.75 meters tall.

In the tribe, the adult sub-orcs are all over 1.8 meters tall.

Aman is 1.85 meters tall, and Stone is 1.88 meters taller. Sister Qiao is about the same size as Aman, but Xiaoxian is the youngest. She seems a little taller than him?

? ? ?

Zhuo Yan looked carefully and saw that Xiao Xian was really taller than him.

Last year, he remembered that Xiao Xian was about the same as him, but now he is taller than him!

a bolt from the blue.

"It turns out that brooms are made according to height. So Zhuo Yan, I'll bring you the broom you gave me yesterday. It's not suitable for my house." Aman said.

Xiao Xian also said: "That's not suitable for my family either."

OK, OK, your family is all tall, but ours is the only one - Zhuo Yan looked at A Yin, and then he fell at his feet, and he couldn't help but swear that he must do well. Eat, eat more meat, and grow taller.

In the coming year, he and Ah Yin will also be taller.

When the time comes, Ah Yin will stand taller than you all! There was little hope for him. Before Zhuo Yan crossed over, he was twenty-eight years old and his final height was 1.86.

Today everyone started making broomsticks according to their height. At noon, Aman went back home and brought back the short broomstick he made yesterday. Zhuo Yan:...

"There is still meat. Let's have barbecue today." Aman brought the meat.

"Wait for me then, Ah Yin and I will go back home."

Zhuo Yan went home first with a broom and a bucket. He also went to get the meat, which was not good for Ah Man. Aman was still talking about eating together later, but Zhuo Yan and A Yin had already walked away.

When Zhuo Yan came back again, there were tall stones on both sides of the fire by the river. Stone Aman found a stone slab to put on top, Xiao Xianqiao was in charge of the barbecue, and Zhuo Yan brought a large piece of bear meat and two fish.

"So many?" Aman was surprised.

Zhuo Yan: "I think the weather seems to be getting hotter day by day. I can't save food and it will be wasted by then." The main reason is that they had one meal a day some time ago. Today Zhuo Yan found that Xiao Xian has grown taller. Now A Yin is still Thin.

Make up for it.

When eating meat, Aman found that Zhuo Yan was very kind to Ah Yin and kept holding meat for Ah Yin. However, Ah Yin was not bad either. He always pointed his nose at Zhuo Yan to let Zhuo Yan eat first...

so he reluctantly gave in. , Aman said: "Zhuo Yan, I won't talk nonsense in the future. I wish you and A Yin happiness."

"Cough cough cough cough cough -" Zhuo Yan choked on his saliva.

Aman: "I know you are very happy, please be careful when eating."

Zhuo Yan: ... Dashaman!

Ah Yin quietly circled her brother with her tail. Everyone looked relaxed, as if a big thing had been solved - his little friend, everyone was satisfied with his partner, and he was no longer a love brain who fought against the whole world for love, which is pretty much the same thing.

After reading the expressions of several people, Zhuo Yan fell silent. Finally, he changed the topic and turned the atmosphere more serious.

"Sister Qiao, I see that the sky is getting clearer day by day, and the soil has softened a bit. The potatoes I mentioned before are ready to be planted."

Xiaoxian was curious and asked first: "Brother Zhuo Yan, what are potatoes? I know potatoes. You "We call mud beans potatoes."

"Are there not enough mud beans to dig out? You forgot, we dug almost all of them before the snow season, and even if there are any left, they are rotten. Zhuo Yan can't eat that." "Aman said, thinking that Zhuo Yan didn't have enough food. "Don't you have any Dudu fruit at home?"

Shitou nodded, "I still have Dudu fruit at home."

It means Zhuo Yan doesn't have enough food, so he can give some.

Zhuo Yan shook his head hastily and said enough, "I want to plant some mud beans to see if I can harvest them. I'll plant them at the foot of my hillside and give it a try."

"Plant?" Shitou also became curious.

Aman still couldn't figure it out, let alone Aman, Qiao kept remembering it, but she couldn't figure out what Zhuo Yan meant by 'seed', but she believed in Zhuo Yan and was willing to give it a try with Zhuo Yan.

"Just look at this grass. Grass grows all year round, but only in this area by the river. If I want to use grass, I can collect the grass seeds and scatter them elsewhere-" "

Caodang is away from you. Home is very close, where do you want to spread it? "

"What are grass seeds?"

"Is spreading grass seeds just like planting?"

Zhuo Yan: ...They are all curious babies, even A Yin is very curious.

"Follow me and I will teach you what farming is." Start your farming bloodline and wake up.

Xiao Xian muttered that Brother Zhuo Yan said something weird again. Just after he finished speaking, he thought of something and said happily: "Every time Brother Zhuo Yan says something strange, there will be something useful. My bucket and wooden door are very good." "Use."

So I started farming.

This time we had a barbecue by the river and discussed what to do tomorrow. Everyone brought potatoes from home. Zhuo Yan said: "It's best to have sprouts. Germination means there are buds on the surface of the mud beans. It doesn't matter if they haven't sprouted."

The broom was finished that day. , you will become proficient quickly later. Before dark, several people said goodbye and went back, still thinking about planting potatoes tomorrow.

Early the next morning, down the slope Aman Xiaoxian was chatting away while carrying a rattan basket.

Zhuo Yan brought his own potatoes and rattan baskets, and several people gathered around him. Zhuo Yan first picked straw stalks and spread them all over the rattan baskets. They followed suit. Qiao also asked if the straw stalks did not need to be roasted?

"No, growing potato sprouts requires a moist environment."

Then throw the potatoes in and spread a thin layer of straw on top.

"Okay." Zhuo Yan said.

Aman Xiaoxian couldn't wait to ask: "Is this good?", "Brother Zhuo Yan, is this just planting potatoes?"

Qiao shook her head, she remembered that Zhuo Yan said that there must be soil.

"This is just the first step. It will take three to ten days for the potatoes to sprout. During this period, we can loosen the soil." There is no need to water.

In fact, cultivating potato seedlings is very simple. What Zhuo Yan said about farming aroused a lot of curiosity in a few people, and they thought it was very complicated - just like making a door, but they didn't expect it to be this?

"I brought a day's worth of food, so what are we doing now?" Xiao Xian was confused.

Zhuo Yan: "Find a place that no one in the tribe likes to go to, which is suitable for planting, and then go back to loosen the soil, and then nothing will happen. I also want to set traps to catch a few rabbits or chickens."

There is not much bear meat at home . .

The area in front of his house is quite suitable, but it depends on whether Qiao and the others want to find another place. As soon as he said it, Qiao and Shitou shook their heads. Qiao said: "We don't know how to farm, so let's farm on your side first." We'll learn it later and look for a place."

"Yes." Shitou nodded.

Aman said: "It's not very far. It's just right for us to play with you every day."

Okay!

In the next few days, everyone hoeed the grass to loosen the soil. The soil here is very good, so there is a lot of grass. They almost ignored it, and any seeds that fell would grow. Zhuo Yan also found a lot of suspiciously familiar wild vegetables.

Bring them all!

The orcs in the tribe looked at what Qiao, the beast-loving boy, and the white-haired boy were digging through the soil for every day. Someone curiously asked Xiao Xian, but he was confused after hearing this.

"They say they want to grow potatoes."

"What are potatoes?"

The orcs all shook their heads, not understanding. Someone said: "As Qiao and Zhuo Yan get closer, they become silly. She should not play with Zhuo Yan anymore."

"Yes, she digs the soil and picks up some grass every day."

"But I didn't expect it. Zhuo Yan actually survived this snow season."

Everyone nodded, thinking that Zhuo Yan would die. Chun didn't say anything, but saw Qiao and others following the disgusting beast from a long distance away. Chun's face looked a little angry.

"Chun, why doesn't Joe play with you now?" someone asked. I used to often see Chun and Qiao picking and working together.

"She likes to play with fools." Chun said and went back with the backpack.

Several sub-orcs looked at me and I looked at you. They didn't understand why Chun was angry. Someone still reminded her and said it again. Before the snow season last year, Zhuo Yan seduced Chun's partner Ashu, and Qiao helped Zhuo Yan. Maybe the relationship between the two was not good because of this.

"Why doesn't Qiao help Chun? He obviously has a good relationship with Chun."

"Who knows."

Someone saw it and said at this time: "Chun took Ashu to find Zhuo Yan. Zhuo Yan was frightened at that time and said no Knowing that they were fine, but Chun was not happy, Ashu threatened Zhuo Yan and wanted to beat him. Zhuo Yan was so frightened that he fell and hit the stone and bleeded. Qiao couldn't see it and helped Zhuo Yan. Chun was not happy... "

So that's it."

After everyone knew the inside story, some said that Zhuo Yan was timid, some said that it was not good for Ashu to bully sub-orcs as an orc, and some said that Ashu did not bully but only threatened. Anyway, after all, In the end, some people thought it was unwise for Qiao to be unhappy with Chun because of this incident.

"...Zhuo Yan is so weak. He is followed by a white-haired boy every day. Qiao and Zhuo Yan play together, and they might even give Zhuo Yan something to eat."

"We should stay away from Zhuo Yan."

Even so, the weather It's getting hotter day by day. Zhuo Yan and the others have dug up all the weeds and made the soil loose. Every day, a team of sub-orcs go to the river to wash and work. They are always curious and turn around and walk ten meters more to see. Look what Zhuo Yan and the others are doing.

The weather is really hot.

Zhuo Yan was glad that his family had eaten all the bear meat before, and there were about a dozen fish in the cave. These days they stewed fish and grilled fish. During the whole winter, these were the only days when his stomach seemed full. Sometimes it still holds up.

What a blessing.

"It felt like the beginning of spring a few days ago, and it was really hot at noon these days." He felt that it was 25 or 6 degrees Celsius at noon, and it was still a little cool in the morning and evening.

Ah Yin was eating the last grilled fish at home, and his brother had grilled it for him. He was a little droopy because he didn't like the hot weather. When the weather was hot, his brother would not hold him to sleep at night.

There was a sound outside the cave entrance, and Qiao and others were coming.

"You eat this so early in the morning?" Aman was curious.

Zhuo Yan: "This is the last one. I have been saving my life before. I didn't expect the climate to change so quickly. I'm done eating now. You guys go to see the potatoes first."

Xiao Xian can't wait anymore. He is still waiting for the next step of farming. At this moment, it will be unveiled. A few people moved the rattan basket to a well-lit area outside the entrance of the cave. Qiao carefully removed the grass stalk on it and took one to look at carefully.

Shitou Aman came closer. Under the sunlight, several people finally understood what the 'buds' Zhuo Yan said were. Xiao Xian: "There are so many sprouts."

Zhuo Yan stopped eating for a long time, and the fish was almost injured. At this moment, he appeared in Behind a few people, I saw the potatoes in Sister Qiao's hand. They were very good. The water here supports plants.

"You can proceed to the next step, cut into pieces, dip them in plant ashes and then plant them."

In fact, you can leave the cut pieces for two days, it is more convenient and faster to dip them in plant ashes.

When he heard about farming, Xiao Xian was the most excited, with his furry ears exposed, "Great. Recently, many sub-orcs in the tribe have been asking me what we have been doing recently. When I said planting potatoes, they didn't understand, and I couldn't understand either. They look at me like a fool."

"Zhuo Yan is not a fool," Shitou said.

Aman: "Of course, Zhuo Yan is smart."

Zhuo Yan: Hehe, thank you for the compliment.

Chapter 24:

A basket of potatoes, Zhuo Yan taught everyone how to cut them into pieces. "There should be at least two or three buds on one surface, and then the cut side should be dipped in plant ash."

"Isn't it difficult to cut it into pieces?" Qiao asked.

Zhuo Yan: "When cooking at home, this method is definitely not suitable for long-term storage and will cause rot, but if you are planting potatoes, this piece will be the seeds of the potatoes."

"Sister Qiao, do you remember when we went to Ada's house, Ada's mother said

Qiao remembered, "Ada gave it to you, but you refused." "The grass has died

and dried up. I don't know how to get the grass seeds, so I can't plant them. I want to plant them in the land." "You can't grow anything by throwing it into the soil."

Several people suddenly understood. Xiao Xian also gave an example: "Fish can only grow in the river."

"Smart" Zhuo. Yan praised, and sure enough he saw Xiao Xian's ears twitching.

Very cute.

A Yin on the ground also raised his ears and rubbed himself in front of his brother. Zhuo Yan finally laid his eyes on A Yin's ears and rubbed them, "Let's go down to farm."

The division of labor between the five people was carried out very quickly. After Qiao Xiaoxian watched it for a while, Qiao became proficient in cutting into pieces. Xiaoxian was responsible for dipping the cut surfaces with plant ash, while Shitou and Aman were responsible for planting. Zhuoyan was a brick and walked around everywhere. He taught everyone how to dig a hole -

at first Shitou and Aman could Dig a big hole for planting trees.

"It doesn't need to be so deep, this is fine." Zhuo Yan demonstrated.

After planting, the preliminary work was in place. In fact, it went very quickly. The sub-orcs worked quickly and diligently, and the soil was just right. When it came time to sprinkle water, Shitou Aman took care of it. Carrying the bucket, Zhuo Yan lent him his water ladle. Aman thought it was very useful and said he would get one for his family.

"You can dig this yourself slowly." It's not difficult. Zhuo Yan said.

Qiao looked at Zhuo Yan and said, "Whether it's a wooden door, a bucket, a wooden bowl, or growing potatoes, it's not difficult for us to learn, but none of us thought about it at the beginning."

"It's the most talented person in the tribe . My wise grandma and uncle never thought of it, "Zhuo Yan, you are so awesome."

This is a bit borrowed from the wisdom of future generations, but the wisdom of future generations is also accumulated by the predecessors, and now he can be regarded as the 'predecessor'. Rounding up, "They all belong to everyone!"

Aman heard this in confusion and said, "Zhuo Yan, you are so generous."

"If other people ask, do you want to tell them?" Xiao Xian couldn't hold it back.

Zhuo Yan nodded, "Okay, if anyone wants to learn how to grow potatoes, you can tell me. But I feel like no one except you will believe that we can grow potatoes."

Xiao Xian didn't believe it, but Aman Shitou Qiao believed in Zhuo Yan. What he said, Qiao said: "You have never gotten along with Zhuo Yan, and you have never seen the wooden door of Zhuo Yan's house. Just wait until the potatoes grow."

"You can tell it, I think everyone will laugh at you. ." Aman said.

Having said that, Xiao Xian still did not believe in evil and went to the river to fetch water at noon. Another small team of sub-orcs stopped him and asked them what they were doing these days.

"Grow potatoes, Zhuo Yan said, you can grow many, many potatoes." Xiao Xian was excited and wanted everyone to know how powerful Zhuo Yan was.

But Orc Man 1: "What are potatoes?"

"It's just mud beans."

Orc Man 2: "Mid beans are not available everywhere, and mud beans are only available before the snow season."

Xiao Xian said to Zhuo Yan seriously After telling the story about farming, everyone got disbelieving looks, and some people advised Xiao Xian not to get too close to Zhuo Yan. You see, Qiao has become less smart.

"...Zhuo Yan is very smart, and so is Qiao." Xiao Xian couldn't convince everyone in the end, so he could only go back angrily. He didn't understand why everyone didn't believe in Zhuo Yan so much.

He told what happened just now. Aman laughed at Xiao Xian and said what he just said was right. No one would believe us. Xiao Xian crossed his arms and snorted.

Zhuo Yan smiled a little, and Xiao Xian looked at it and wondered, "Aren't you angry?"

"No. Don't be angry either. Think about it, when we first played together, I was still the one shamelessly pestering Sister Qiao. You and Aman are still saying bad things about me."

Aman: ...touched his nose and emphasized that I won't say anything now.

Xiao Xian's face turned red.

"It was the same before, but it's different now." Xiao Xian suppressed a sentence.

Zhuo Yan then said: "Yes, I have been busy picking fruits with you for more than ten days. Sister Qiao gave me the first piece of meat. You are willing to accept me to work together and then start the door. You think I have improved. It's almost winter again. I'm afraid I won't survive. Take pity on me. You are all very kind."

"Now you don't know if you can plant them. It's normal if you don't believe me. When potatoes grow in the ground in the future, someone will definitely ask about you. "

Xiao Xian said angrily: "If you had asked me at that time, I wouldn't have said anything!"

Zhuo Yan: Hahahahaha, he was so funny. Xiao Xian knew how to ignore me at the beginning.

"Okay, okay, okay, who is willing to plant it when the time comes and say nice things about you, like 'Xiao Xian, you are the best, please tell me', 'I will give you something delicious in exchange', 'Xiao Xian, Xiao Xian, please tell me' , you decide whether to say it or not when the time comes."

Just hearing Zhuo Yan said this, Xiao Xian seemed to feel that everyone was asking him so enthusiastically. He was a little embarrassed, his furry ears were exposed, and he seemed to be very happy.

"Then, I might talk about it, but they can't say bad things about you, otherwise I won't say it."

Zhuo Yan: "Good brother!"

Even though Aman Shitou didn't interrupt, thinking about what Zhuo Yan said, would he Will anyone ask about them?

I don't know why, but I feel happy just thinking about it.

Zhuo Yan: I talk about bushi in the orc world.

Farming is something that takes a long time and requires patience, but sometimes it is very fast. It takes time for the seeds to be planted in the soil. There is no rush. It takes one day, two days and three days. Xiao Xian and Aman are the most concerned about it. They go to check the conditions in the ground every day, but they find nothing. The buds have not broken through the soil. I don't know how excited they are. Suddenly it became lighter.

The tribe had been secretly watching what Zhuo Yan and the others were doing by digging the soil. They heard that they were planting mud beans, and a lot of mud beans would grow. The sub-orcs didn't believe it. After watching it for a few days, the soil was still the same as before, and some people laughed at Xiao Xian. I really believe what Zhuo Yan said.

Xiao Xian was angry but did not argue with them.

Zhuo Yan is right, wait until the potatoes grow.

You should also be busy with other things while waiting.

Xiao Xian's two brothers have recovered from their injuries, and Ada is still recovering from her injuries, but I heard from Qiao that she has recovered to some extent, but Ada's mother said that she should not go to the hunting team for the time being, and that she could stay in the patrol team and take care of her.

Zhuo Yan felt that Ada's mother was a brave and resourceful warrior.

Ada could often meet Joe in the patrol team - the patrol patrolled the tribal territory, ten kilometers along the river to the top of the mountain where they lived. The patrol team included elderly orcs who were leading orcs who were almost adult, or who were temporarily recuperating from injuries. An unwell orc.

The orcs at the age of 17 or 18 are full of enthusiasm, and they are very impatient without much experience. If they patrol, they will become familiar with the tribal territory, and they can also suppress their temper and practice their patience. After patrolling for half a year, they can join the hunting team.

If the orc parents at home are reliable, they will also teach the orc cubs some hunting skills when they are young, such as the habits of various prey, how to catch them, how to take the prey away, what is a temporarily safe place, and other theoretical knowledge.

Zhuo Yan found Sister Qiao and wanted to ask Ada for something, but he directly explained his purpose.

"As for the patrol, can we add A Yin? The tribe is too big, and A Yin can only go around half a circle..." A Yin is an orc after all, and it cannot be said that it is inappropriate to follow him to work in the fields and pick wild vegetables all day long. , children still have to go to school to learn technology.

Adult orcs are out hunting for big prey, and his primary school student A Yin is learning to catch chickens and rabbits, and the junior high school students behind him are able to catch sheep and pigs, so he is thankful.

Don't take too long a step yet.

In this world, it is best for children to learn hunting and survival skills.

Zhuo Yan: I have such pity for my brother in the world.

Qiao did not agree for Ada, but said that they could go to Ada and ask. Zhuo Yan also meant this. At around two o'clock that afternoon, Ada and the patrol arrived at the riverside area. Qiao stopped Ada, and Zhuo Yan also went over and explained the situation.

"I can't guarantee it's possible. I'll ask my uncle first." Ada couldn't make a decision either and needed to ask the elders in the patrol team.

Zhuo Yan had the miserable and helpless feeling of an orphan and a widowed mother looking for connections to send their children to school.

He thought he would have to wait a few days, or that there would be another setback, but he didn't expect Ada to quickly follow the patrol after telling them. About a few minutes later, Ada ran back and said it was okay.

Zhuo Yan, an orphan and widowed mother: ... doesn't seem so weak, pitiful and helpless anymore.

"It's okay now," Ada said.

It's Zhuo Yan's turn: Huh? Now? So fast? Although he was very reluctant to give up, and even had the urge to think about whether it would be okay tomorrow morning, Zhuo Yan still suppressed the urge -

it was not that he suppressed it, but A Yin seemed to be ready. Wagging his tail, Zhuo Yan knew what A Yin wanted to do. There had been no meat or fish at home these days, and after the big meal that day, he was eating fruit every day.

Zhuo Yan's face turned pale as a Dudu fruit.

"Okay, let's go. Ah Yin, you have to listen to the teachings of your elders and study hard. Go ahead and go."

"Be safe."

Ah Yin turned around three times and looked at his brother, who was thinking about it in his sleep and dreams last night. With chicken, my brother wants to eat chicken.

He wants to catch chickens for his brother.

Qiao looked at Zhuo Yan. Zhuo Yan was still following the patrol. He couldn't help but smile and said, "You guys are so close. You won't be able to let go after being away for a while."

"He's still young." Zhuo Yan didn't notice Qiao's expression at all. The inner meaning, when he finished speaking, he saw Sister Qiao's teasing look in his eyes, and he immediately understood.

'It's hard for you and your wife to part ways with each other,' this is what I mean.

Zhuo Yan: ...Ah...forget it, I can't explain it clearly.

His reputation is long gone.

So he changed the subject and said, "I have dried all the wild vegetables I found last time and didn't dare to eat them. It would be great if there was a chicken that could help me taste them." This made him dream about chickens and chickens.

Qiao said: "Is that grass? I've never heard anyone in the tribe say it can be eaten before."

Everyone couldn't hold it. Zhuo Yan looked at the 'weeds' in the soil. If it didn't work, he would chew it carefully.

The hunting party returned in the evening.

There was another clanging sound in the tribe, and Zhuo Yan thought he had caught something again, but when he saw something was wrong with Qiao's face, he was immediately stunned, and the joy in his eyes disappeared. The next day, Zhuo Yan heard Xiao Xian'aman mention that yesterday there was a newly adult orc in the hunting team who acted impulsively and chased the mammoth, but was trampled by the mammoth.

"People...are people still alive?" Zhuo Yan asked.

Xiao Xian shook his head, and Zhuo Yan thought that the person was gone, so he heard A Man say: "I sent it to the uncle, but it's hard to tell."

"It's not necessarily that he will die. A Yin encountered a white-horned cow before and was trampled. A lot of blood was shed, but Ah Yin is still alive." Xiao Xian racked his brains to think of examples.

Everyone wanted the young orc to live.

It's a pity... this newly adult orc still couldn't bear it.

After Zhuo Yan learned the news, he could only sigh. Because of the "green and yellow", the first spring after the snow season is the hardest to endure. The orcs can eat Dudu fruit to survive, but the orcs have a desire for meat in their genes.

After a whole winter, all the animals died, starved, or migrated away. Now spring is slowly coming back. It takes time for animals to reproduce in spring.

The young orc saw the mammoth. Although the elders had warned against disturbing them, the young orc felt that there were many of them. It was okay. One mammoth could feed the entire tribe. He never expected...

"Actually, I didn't say, big hole. There are also a few old people who didn't survive," Aman said at this moment.

Several lives in the tribe have disappeared. According to the custom of the Leopard Man tribe, the corpses will be sent to the outside continent to nourish other animals, which can be regarded as a kind of feedback. They hunted, ate other animals, were eaten by other animals after they died, and their fur and bones were washed away by the rain, which then nourished the soil.

It can also be regarded as a cycle.

Everyone was in a bad mood these days. Zhuo Yan held A Yin in his arms and gave A Yin his hair that night. He gave A Yin a lot of Dudu fruit for dinner, but A Yin still let him eat it first. Zhuo Yan couldn't help but say: " I've been too busy recently and haven't done any physical work all day long. You spend a lot of time running out every day. Eat more."

Ah Yin

raised his eyes and looked at his brother intently.

Zhuo Yan kissed A Yin's head and said, "Be sure to pay attention to safety. If you encounter a dangerous prey that you can't beat, run away and avoid it."

A Yin is his partner, his brother, and his family.

"Ouch~"

Ah Yin felt that her brother was unhappy, and stretched out her tongue to lick her brother enthusiastically. Zhuo Yan was wet with saliva, but it dispelled the pessimism of the past few days. He smiled and stretched out his hand to rub Ah Yin's ears. Silver clung to her brother like a puppy, with her paws retracting her nails and sticking out her tongue to show her brother a smile.

"Don't you dare do this outside. You'll be laughed at if you're a bitch."

Ah Yin rubbed her head against her brother. She only did this to him, and he laughed.

The next day was sunny again. Zhuo Yan took tools and A Yin out of the cave. He sent A Yin to the patrol team first. He was working by the river making mats and door curtains. There were earthworms and insects in the grass, and Zhuo Yan knew how to handle them. Pick it up, chop it into pieces and throw it into the river.

Last winter I said I would feed the fish in the river.

Now they are all small fry, and fat ones are rare. Even if they were fat, Zhuo Yan didn't catch them. Aman came over at some point and said, "You just let go of a big fish."

"I know. "

Zhuo Yan, what's wrong with you recently? I feel like you're not very happy." Aman stopped worrying about the big fish.

Qiao Shitou and Xiao Xian all gathered around.

Zhuo Yan looked at the concerned eyes of his friends and told the truth: "I've been a little upset recently, and people in the tribe have died, so I'm always a little pitiful -" Forgetting that everyone didn't understand the idiom, "Just for a while. I felt sad, but I cheered up after a while, but most of the time I was still thinking about things. Human life is so fragile and life is so difficult."

"I know." Aman said first.

Shitou nodded.

Xiao Xian didn't understand. He looked at A Man and then at Stone. Qiao also looked understanding and said that I did too.

Zhuo Yan:? ? ? Could it be that the sub-orcs are still coming?

"You are in heat!!!" Aman said loudly.

Zhuo Yan was shocked, and then he didn't know whether he should be thankful that he didn't have his period - the world is divided into orcs and sub-orcs, but Ada's mother is an orc, and Ada calls her mother...

He has a logic Momentary chaos.

There was no time to analyze the situation at Ada's home, and she was shocked because she was in heat.

"Am I in estrus now?" Zhuo Yan doesn't think so. It's really not true. It's a huge injustice. Dr. Aman, did you misdiagnose me? Do you want to listen to the symptoms and do more tests? Why is the diagnosis made now?

"I don't have anything like that. Really, I've been sleeping well recently, and I don't have any urges." How could he be in heat? Wouldn't it be a sub-orc who would post this?

Zhuo Yan was in a trance.

Qiao said: "You have become soft Zhuo Yan, you just said that life is very fragile -"

"You must want Zaizai." Aman answered.

Shitou nodded, and Xiaoxian suddenly understood and said his mantra: That's it.

Only Zhuo Yan was still defending his honor, "I don't think so, it's just that someone in the tribe passed away, and I feel a little sad." He was so frightened that he immediately became energetic.

"Are you talking about mating?" Shitou asked, giving Zhuo Yan an answer.

Zhuo Yan: ...Are you all so straightforward and frank?

"Looking at his expression, it should be so." Aman nodded and added: "I also know this, Zhuo Yan, now in the early spring, you may be more sensitive and think about many things in your head. You need the orcs to hug you. Your family will care about you." "You, if the weather gets hotter, you may have the urge to mate. This is normal, don't be afraid."

Aman remembered that Zhuo Yan's mother had gone early, so she definitely didn't tell Zhuo Yan this, so she answered patiently. , and even told Zhuo Yan happily: "You have grown up, Zhuo Yan, you are almost an adult!"

Zhuo Yan: ...I don't seem to be very happy as an adult.

He was even a little scared. Would he really be impulsive? Ah no no no no no, he is human and can restrain himself.

After a while, the silent Zhuo Yan asked again: "Am I going to meow miserably like a cat in the middle of the night?"

It's very uncomfortable for a female cat to be in heat.

Does he still have to suffer like this? Too bad.

"Are you talking about a lynx? I don't know about a lynx. This guy runs very fast and agile, and his meat isn't very tasty." Aman said.

Qiao understood what Zhuo Yan said and said: "We are different from lynx Zhuo Yan, don't be afraid, I was in heat last year, but like Aman just said, there was some urge to mate and have cubs, but not too much Just do the work."

It was also at that time that Joe and Ada saw eye to eye.

"That's good, that's good." Zhuo Yan breathed a sigh of relief, he still has some treatment, Qiao is the miracle doctor, A'man is the quack!

After experiencing Dr. Qiao's prescription, Zhuo Yan suddenly found that he was no longer sleepy or lazy. He was full of motivation and wanted to plow three acres of land -

"By the way, let me go and take a look at our potato field." Zhuo Yan thought Getting up, "How many days have it been?"

Xiao Xian: "It seems like one, two, three..." and started counting on his fingers.

"I forgot to go see the fields these days."

"I went there a few days ago, and it's still the same." Shitou said.

Throughout the small team, Zhuo Yan found that Shitou was silent at ordinary times, but made shocking remarks at critical moments. The same was true for his work, and he was very attentive.

When several people arrived at the potato field, Xiao Xian exclaimed first, "Zhuo Yan, Zhuo Yan, there are sprouts growing, so many sprouts."

"Seedlings are growing, I didn't expect it to be so fast." They are no longer small sprouts. Zhuo Yan also sighed.

Shi Shi squatted down to inspect, "It's really the leaves of mud beans, I remember."

"Of course, we grow potatoes." Aman said.

Qiao was wondering when the mud beans would ripen, "Will it be in autumn? Like the mud beans in the forest, before the snow season?"

"It won't be that late. Depending on the potato variety, it will mature three months early and one-and-five months later. " "Month." Zhuo Yan thought for a moment, "You can eat potatoes as early as summer."

"That's great!" Xiao Xian was very happy.

On this day, they all worked hard and diligently in watering, but the patrol team A Yin only ran for most of the day. When Zhuo Yan was going home after finishing his work, he saw A Yin holding a chicken in his mouth.

chicken!

"Ouch~" Ah Yin swung his tail, opened his mouth and called the chicken and dropped it to the ground. Ah Yin picked it up again and ran as fast as offering a treasure to his brother.

Brother, you love to eat chicken.

Zhuo Yan was surprised and happy. He had forgotten to test the weeds with the chicken. He couldn't help but pinch some of the dried weeds and chew them last night. Everything is normal now. Now when he saw Ah Yin coming back with the chicken in his mouth and squatting in front of him, he had only one feeling - pride!

His Ah Yin knows how to catch chickens!

"Ah Yin is awesome, so awesome. He can even catch chickens."

Ah Yin circled around her brother, rubbing her head against his legs, wagging her tail happily, and squealing. Zhuo Yan was so happy that she rubbed him Ah Yin kissed her head and said, "Go home, let's eat roast chicken today!"

The weather has been hot for a day, and there is no room for any meat. They have almost no salt. If there was more salt, the food could be preserved.

The tribe still lives according to the way animals live, hungry and full. If the orcs hunt large animals, they can eat a meal for three days. The sub-orcs can allocate some leftover meat to go with Dudu fruits, potatoes and so on.

However, in the past few days, almost all hunting teams returned empty-handed. When the harvest was scarce, the meat was only eaten by the bravest orcs in the tribe - to ensure the orcs' physical strength and to obtain more food later.

The last time the adult orc passed away, the hunting team went out carrying a leopard carcass. They haven't come back yet. I heard from Shitou that sometimes they would go farther in search of prey. It was normal not to come back for a day or two.

If the patrol finds larger prey, half of it must be handed over to the tribe, but chickens and rabbits belong to whoever catches them.

Now, this chicken was caught by his A Yin.

Ah Yin saw her brother so happy, wagging her tail and followed him home!

Chapter 25

This chicken was already dead when Ah Yin brought it back.

Zhuo Yan boiled a large pot of water, stuffed the chicken in and began to pluck the feathers and remove the internal organs. He put the chicken hearts, livers, and intestines in a large wooden basin. When the time came, he went to the river to clean them. Every time he cleaned them, Zhuo Yan would always I think of modern braised spices, how fragrant they are.

No spices, chili powder, salt, cumin will also work.

Gotta get rid of the smell.

It would be such a waste to throw this thing away now, but eat it, it tastes very strong.

Ah Yin watched her brother clean up, and helped him by taking a spoon for him and putting it back. When Zhuo Yan had 90% of a chicken steak, he grilled it on the fire again, scraped it clean with a stone knife, and now it's ready Went to the river.

There was no need for him to shout, Ah Yin was already running ahead.

When he arrived at the river, he found chicken feathers and some useless scraps. Zhuo Yan was still a little cautious, thinking of repeating his old trick and setting a trap. Although last winter, nothing came from the trap, but just in case.

In case there is another stupid chicken or rabbit coming over.

Zhuo Yan went to set up a trap, and Ah Yin was running around next to him. At first, Zhuo Yan thought that Ah Yin was playing tricks again, but later he thought it was not the case. After he reacted, he suddenly understood.

"Ah Yin, are you warning your brother?"

Ah Yin ran over and nodded his head. Zhuo Yan stood up, touched Ah Yin first, and praised: "It's really good. I'm going to school to learn something. Let's go to the river and wash the chicken."

Good luck can't stop it. Zhuo Yan was washing the chicken and chicken offal. , a fish came over. During the day, a fat fish was let go. A Man said that he was in heat. Now he was so frightened that Zhuo Yan jumped into the air quickly and accurately. But almost at the same moment, Ah Yin stretched out his claws and jumped into the river. The fish was in Ah Man. Silver claws on.

"Wow! So handsome!" Zhuo Yan was stunned for a moment and blurted out the compliment.

His Ah Yin's reaction speed is better than his.

He killed another fish by the river, scraped the scales and removed the internal organs. Night came before he knew it. While he was working, Ah Yin kept patrolling behind his back. Until Zhuo Yan stood up and agreed, Ah Yin still looked at him. Put it far away, and then follow step by step behind your brother.

go home.

A flame lit up the cave, and wild fish and vegetables were stewed in a stone pot. For a whole chicken, Zhuo Yan used a sharpened wooden stick to penetrate the entire chicken body, and then rolled it back and forth over the flames to roast it. When he was tired, he would rest on the stone pot for a while.

Ah Yin looked at his paws and anxiously wanted to help his brother.

"No, let me check the salt." Zhuo Yan looked at the salt bag. Sure enough, there was no salt. There was only a little bit of black dust or salt. I don't know if it was dust or salt. Forget it, just sprinkle it on it, just in case it was salt.

"Our family is out of salt, Ah Yin. When you catch prey, suck the blood. It would be better if you can catch it alive."

"There is salt in the blood. You can replenish the salt."

As for him, Zhuo Yan : "I'll ask Sister Qiao tomorrow when Yuren's market usually opens. If you go to the market, you have to prepare trading items in advance." All

his family could offer was the half bear skin, but Zhuo Yan Zishi didn't really want to sell this. Last winter, he relied on A Yin for heating, and A Yin was exposed to the outside without any cover.

What can you prepare?

In other words, can he do something useful, a wooden barrel? Wooden door? Maybe not even. I heard that the journey is quite long, so it is best to be simple and light.

Ah Yin listened to his brother's words attentively. He wanted live chickens and rabbits and wanted their blood. He also understood that his brother wanted him to drink blood.

The aroma slowly came out, and the fish soup was light white, white and green in color because of the addition of wild vegetables. Zhuo Yan opened four Dudu fruits and squeezed them in. Now he is very ruthless in cooking -

winter has passed. No need to skimp on food like before.

Ah Yin is growing taller, and so is he. If there is more food, eat it on this day, so that Ah Yin will have enough strength to hunt more chickens and rabbits. Zhuo Yan's thinking changed quickly and he learned from the tribe.

"Let's start." Zhuo Yan put most of the chicken into Ah Yin's bowl and left the soup to dry first. He was afraid that Ah Yin wouldn't eat it. Sure enough, Ah Yin looked at the big chicken in his bowl and screamed. My brother had too little, but he had too much.

Zhuo Yan rubbed A Yin's ears, "I'm not in the shape of an animal. If I eat too much, I'll feel uncomfortable. It's true." He didn't treat himself harshly. He said, 'Mom's not hungry, you eat'. A whole chicken costs 40-60 cents. He is four and Ah Yin is six.

If it's 37 points, Ah Yin will definitely not eat it.

"You have eaten enough. You can patrol tomorrow. You must be very tired from running so many miles every day."

"Be good and be obedient."

A Yin rubbed his head against his brother's hand. As long as his brother said he was obedient, he would be obedient.

During the process of eating chicken, Zhuo Yan also set up stone slabs to grill chicken gizzards, intestines, and livers while pulling the chicken. In some places, Zhuo Yan would tear it off and give it to Ah Yin, "This one is a bit fat, I don't like it." Eat."

Ah Yin tilted his head and looked at his brother seriously with a pair of blue eyes, as if to see whether what his brother said was true or not - this brat, Zhuo Yan was amused, he is a little blogger with 100,000 fans! It also has some acting skills.

Zhuo Yan frowned and showed his disgust, "Really, this piece is so fat, you can eat it."

"Ooooooo~"

It can only be said that A Yin is still very innocent and was coaxed by Zhuo Yan's poor acting skills. past. A chicken, in the end Zhuo Yan coaxed A Yin to eat 70%, and he ate 30%. The remaining chicken offal was a bit burnt, and it tasted a bit chewy, like dried meat, but the fishy smell was not strong anymore.

In a pot of fish soup, Zhuo Yan grilled the fish meat for A Yin. In the end, he drank two bowls of soup. After eating and drinking, Zhuo Yan's belly was bulging. He was very lazy sitting on the small stool and was unwilling to get up to clean up.

"I can't do it, I can't do it. Brother, take a rest for a while. I'm really full." What Zhuo Yan said this time was true. Although they didn't have many chickens, they had a lot of food, especially soup.

I'm really full this time.

Ah Yin looked at her brother's appearance, then at her brother's belly, tilted her head, took the mat knitted by her brother, put it aside, and lazily lay down next to her brother.

My brother likes him to be clean.

Zhuo Yan felt uncomfortable sitting on the small stool, especially in his stomach. Seeing Ah Yin enjoy it so much, it felt like his bones were going crazy. He slid down due to jealousy. Ah Yin understood it tacitly and moved to the side. Zhuo Yan leaned on A Yin.

"Ah Yin, is it sinking or not?"

"Ouch~" It's not sinking or it's not sinking, my brother is taking it lightly.

Zhuo Yan was too lazy to move, his head resting on Ah Yin, his body stretched out, and he had eaten and drank enough. The fire in the cave was weak and warm. After a while, Zhuo Yan fell asleep. Ah Yin listened to his brother's breathing. Lying there happily.

Zhuo Yan slept soundly this time. He didn't know what time it was when he woke up. Anyway, it was already dark when he was eating. After stretching, Zhuo Yan stretched out his hand to rub A Yin's body so as not to make his body numb. Ah Yin thought his brother was playing with him, so he turned his belly and asked his brother to touch it. It was very soft here.

"Okay, okay, I brushed my teeth and washed my face and went to bed."

Zhuo Yan takes good care of his teeth. There is no dentist in this world. He doesn't want his child to grow up and have a lot of meat in the future, but his teeth are not good enough - —Start drawing the cake.

One person and one leopard came out of the cave. Zhuo Yan held water cups in both hands, one big and one small. He rinsed his mouth first and fed it to A Yin. Gulu, Gulu, Gulu. A Yin imitated his brother by holding water in his mouth, and then spit it out. Lose.

Afterwards, Zhuo Yan cleaned their teeth with branches, rinsed their mouths, and looked up at the sky. There were many stars and the moon was shining brightly. It was so beautiful.

"Go back to sleep."

After eating and sleeping, I will be energetic the next day. Zhuo Yan carried the stone pot and the basket on his back, while A Yin carried the empty barrel to the river.

"Okay, you go and follow the patrol team. I'll see Ah Yin in the afternoon."

"Ooooooo~" Ah Yin waggled his tail with his brother. When he saw his brother's partner coming, he ran to the patrol team.

By the river, Zhuo Yan began to wash the stone pot used last night, and he also had to fetch water from the wooden bucket. There was no rush for this.

"Good morning, Brother Zhuo Yan!"

"Good morning."

Everyone took things to clean. Zhuo Yan asked about the market in a casual chat, and Qiao said: "The Yuren Market? It takes more than half a month."

"So long?!" Zhuo Yan's eyes widened.

"Once, my father and his team went out in the summer when it was still not hot, and when they came back it was already a little cooler." Aman said, and then explained: "That time, I heard my father say that we met several people on the way back. The next danger is that mammoths and rhino herds are fighting, as well as lions. "

It seems that the Yumen Fair is in the middle of the year, probably early summer. Most of the month is not a round trip, it is just a trip. Calculated this way, it takes more than a month to go back and forth.

I heard a few people say that when going to the market to trade, if the team is purely orcs, it will go faster, if there are sub-orcs, it will be slower - but the sub-orcs will sit on the backs of the orcs, and the orcs will carry them on their way.

"...Zhuo Yan, although you have A Yin, but A Yin is still young, can he carry you?" Aman was a little worried, "It will take a long time to go, and the orcs who have partnered will not be like other sub-orcs. "

Xiao Xian nodded fiercely, "That's right, I begged my elder brother for a long time to carry me on his back. My second brother hasn't carried me on his back much since he came into estrus for the first time."

"It seems that we will go to the market this year . No more." Zhuo Yan was a little worried, "I don't have any salt at home."

"This is going to be difficult."

Qiao: "Ada and I will go. Zhuo Yan, if you have anything to exchange, I can help you bring it."

Among the five, only Qiao has Ada. The others are single and cannot go to the market. Zhuo Yan knew what Qiao was thinking - to help him carry things, it was still a long journey, and Qiao would definitely have to bring the salt he wanted to change.

This added weight to Ada.

So Zhuo Yan did not agree, but said: "I haven't decided what to exchange for it. Forget it. If it doesn't work, I'll wait until next year."

Salt, salt, Ah Yin can drink animal blood to replenish salt. If not, he ——When Zhuo Yan thought of drinking blood, he was incompetent at first. He couldn't help but think about making blood tofu?

Is there salt only on the seaside in this continent?

Zhuo Yan struggled to collect scraps of knowledge in his head. As for salt, apart from sea salt, it was salt mines. He seemed to remember that the blood salt content of herbivores would be relatively high, especially elephants...

Zhuo Yan was meditating on the search. When it was time to make salt, Qiao broke the good news and asked everyone to help her build the door. She and Ada also agreed that they would get married once the door was finished.

"Great!" Zhuo Yan came to his senses and applauded first!

Xiao Xian, on the other hand, was drooling. Zhuo Yan:? ? ? Xiaoxian, are you doing Senmo? !

"Ada is so powerful, he will definitely be able to catch a big prey, so we can eat barbecue~" Xiao Xian's tone was brisk.

Zhuo Yan reacted and understood. Is this a banquet for getting married?

Wow! ! !

When Zhuo Yan congratulated him again, he was even happier and his voice was louder and more sincere. The seals clapped and croaked, "That's great, let's do the door today!"

Qiao smiled brightly.

Chapter 26

A small team of sub-orcs in the tribe is secretly standing on the wide flat land under Zhuoyan Cave. In front of them is a patch of green seedlings, arranged neatly in rows. Although the leaves are still young, they can see the growth. gratifying.

"It really looks like a mud bean." The sub-orc man exclaimed.

Another person was also surprised and said: "It wasn't like this here before. It was all grass, a lot of grass."

"Didn't Zhuo Yan and the others dig up the grass some time ago? They said they wanted to plant mud beans, but it turned out that they actually planted them. "But, but , aren't mud beans only

grown before the snow season

? " Speaking of which, Xiao Xian called this potato planting, which was so strange. After they asked, Xiao Xian said potatoes are mud beans. Brother Zhuo Yan called them that, and I was used to calling them that. In short, everyone still doesn't understand what seed is. "Do you think there are really mud beans under there?" "Maybe they're not ripe yet. Let's not take a look at them yet." Although everyone is very curious about this place, they still cherish food deep down, especially this. It was planted by other sub-orcs. Although they hated Zhuo Yan before, this one was really planted by Zhuo Yan and the Qiao family. They all saw it. "...Actually Zhuo Yan is quite smart." "Yeah, I see Xiaoxian and the others weaving grass by the river every day, making brooms that can sweep the floor, and the wooden buckets they carry, which are very convenient." " I also saw what kind of mats there were. It was said that it would be very cool to lay on the stone bed when the weather is hot. The mats are made of straw and are cleaner than leather. " "Chun, maybe Zhuo Yan really didn't know that you and Ashu were good at that time . Come on, don't be angry. He has Bai Maozi now. You and Ashu are married." "Chun, can you say hello to Qiao?" " But Zhuo Yan is doing this today. Why didn't he come? "I saw them. They got up very early and went outside the tribe. I heard Xiao Xian said they were going to do the door . " What is it again?" "There is wood at the entrance of Zhuo Yan's house, is it that one?" "I don't know." The orcs were curious about the door Xiao Xian mentioned, but there were no invitations to other orcs' caves. Orcs wandering around other people's caves - this would be considered a trespassing of territory, and the orcs would be very angry. Everyone just stood at the bottom of the slope, looking at Zhuo Yan's cave from a distance. However, due to the angle, we could only see a little blurry. It seemed to be wood. Is the wood blocking the entrance of the cave? "It seems more convenient than stones." "But stones are safer." "That's true." After all, what everyone was most curious about was the mud bean leaf. When they left, they were still discussing when it would mature. Summer is really Can I eat mud beans? In that case, wouldn't it be possible to harvest mud beans twice a year? In the woods. Zhuo Yan and Qiao arrived at this thick forest early in the morning. Ada chose a tree and was cutting it down. Zhuo Yan and the others were in the distance, originally waiting for the tree to fall down so that they could do the next work, such as cutting branches, packing and bundling them, etc. It was boring, so Zhuo Yan took A Yin around without going far, so he accidentally found mushrooms in the woods. There were patches of colorful and strange mushrooms. Zhuo Yan: ...Looking so beautiful, it looks like a poisonous mushroom that makes you want to lie down after eating it. "After eating this, there will be a mess in front of you." Aman came over at some point and pointed at a light green mushroom. Aman saw Zhuo Yan looking at him and said, "You can eat it if you want. Anyway, you won't die. I just have a very uncomfortable stomachache and vomited for a long time." "!!!" Zhuo Yan was surprised, "I didn't want to eat it, but you Have you eaten?" "Yeah, it's actually quite fun." Aman still had some aftertaste, "It's so beautiful." Dr. Aman unilaterally kicked you out of the doctor's profession today. You still haven't finished smoking mushrooms! "What about the others? Don't tell me you ate it too?" Zhuo Yan held a rose-red mushroom, which looked extremely poisonous. Aman: "I didn't eat it. A stupid toothed pig ate it. The toothed pig died. Everyone divided the toothed pig's meat and had a stomachache for a long time." "..." Orcs and half-orcs are really powerful. Not killed. Zhuo Yan sighed, fortunately he was now a half-orc, otherwise with the physique of a modern human, if he passed through, eight hundred lives would be lost. Aman saw that Zhuo Yan was holding the mushroom and was reluctant to throw it away, so he suggested seriously: "If you want to eat it, this green one is good. It won't hurt your stomach so much. It's just a few days of vomiting, and some beautiful pictures will appear in front of you. It's pretty good." "Eat this." "..." Ah Yin raised his front paw anxiously and pulled at his brother. If he doesn't want to eat, he will find something delicious. This will make his stomach hurt. "I won't eat." Zhuo Yan touched A Yin's head, "I'm not A Man." A Man stared at him. Zhuo Yan pretended he didn't see it and threw the red mushrooms on the ground and crushed them, while putting the green ones away. Aman was proud when he saw it, "You said you didn't want to eat it." "I really don't want to eat it. Take this back to dry and grind it into powder. " I'm thinking about making a trap to see if I can catch some small animals." Following Zhuo Yan's words, Aman's pride solidified on his face, and he thought again and again, showing a look of "Why didn't I think of that?", "It can still be like this." 'Zhuo Yan, you are so cunning'. "This is called strategy." What cunning! Zhuo Yan imitated Xiao Xian and hummed, touching A Yin's ear, "Let's pick up some more, A Man, are you sure it's not poisonous?" A Man muttered and followed, "I'm not even alive." "Same." A Yin I went to find green mushrooms for my brother. He tilted his head and stuck out his tongue. My brother was really smart. When he found it, he let out a cry. Zhuo Yan said he would come right away after he found out. He found some fungus here. . All received in rattan baskets. There are actually a lot of things to eat in the forest, including mushrooms, fungus, and wild vegetables. There are also many dangers. Some of them seem familiar to Zhuo Yan. If green mushrooms can stun chickens and rabbits, they can be raised. Feed them some wild grass to confirm. Can you eat it? Take them all away! When Shitou came to look for it, Zhuo Yan, who was picking mushrooms, had already picked up most of the basket on his back, and there were also some in Aman's basket. Shitou looked at it and said, "Aman, you are stupid, eating this will give you a stomachache." "I know. Aman was a little showy now and said to Shitou: "I plan to dry this green mushroom and grind it into powder to see if I can attract any small things." Shitou: "...is it Zhuo Yan's method?" It's a question. But it's already certain. Aman was furious, Shitou smiled and said I guessed it right.

Zhuo Yan ignored the quarrel between the two and took Ah Yin forward to go back. There was Shitou and Aman arguing behind him. Aman said: "Why does that boy Zhuo Yan have such a long head? This method is really amazing. I haven't even thought about it."

Thank you, thank you.

When going back, Aman met everyone and told them about the green mushrooms. Xiao Xianqiao also looked like "it's okay" when he heard this, while Ada asked if he could give him some.

"Okay, I picked up a lot. Sister Qiao, I'll share some with you in your basket." Zhuo Yan agreed.

After dividing the green mushrooms, we got to the main topic.

Several people took turns to start working. Zhuo Yan and Xiao Xian were less strong, so they divided the branches into small pieces and tied them into six bundles wrapped around vines. Several people could take them home for firewood, while Shitou Aman It was cutting down trees with Ada.

Qiao said that he would do as Zhuo Yan's family did.

"I still want to improve it, which is to detail the door of my cave. Sister Qiao, where do you plan to drill the cave?" Zhuo Yan asked.

Joe and Ada discussed it and decided to go down between the two caves.

After hearing this, Zhuo Yan felt that the tribe was quite safe. The thickness of the wooden door should be the same as that of his family. The wooden hinges were too thick and could not bear the load, so he said, "Then let's build a shed roof, make it at an angle, make it shorter, and insert it into the roof." Go to the entrance of the cave. This can prevent wind and snow from pouring in through the windows. If you tilt it, the snow will roll down on its own, which is also easy to clean.

"It has been hot recently, and I also want to put the stove outside the cave for cooking. " Make a wooden fence to trap chickens and rabbits. "

Aman said no, chickens can fly.

"You can trim the chicken's wings." Zhuo Yan knew that the chickens here are very strong, and they can't fly if their wings are trimmed.

After he finished speaking, everyone looked at him in shock.

"What are you doing, is it cruel?" No way.

Only Ah Yin rubbed her head against his leg, and her blue eyes said, "Brother is so powerful and smart." My good brother, my love for you is not in vain.

Aman scratched his hair, "It's not cruel, it's why we never thought about this."

"Brother Zhuo Yan, what are you raising for? You have to eat them after you raise them, so why not eat them earlier." Xiao Xian didn't understand why. To 'raise'.

This time it was Aman's turn to nod, with a look of agreement. It was not that they were not smart, but why they raised chickens. The chickens were not enough for the orcs at home.

In the tribe, whether they are sub-orcs or orcs, they all think like this. Let alone a chicken, it is just a toothed pig. No matter how much meat the family is given, they can still eat it - especially the orcs, who can also turn into beasts. A full meal can last three days.

Therefore, the entire tribe has no concept of breeding.

"Chickens are indeed not enough for one meal, but if I raise a hen and a rooster, and then let them give birth to chicks, and then raise them again, I will have a steady stream of chickens to eat. If I can catch a tooth pig in the future, I can also "Raise pigs."

"Chickens eat worms, grass seeds, and potatoes. Rabbits only eat hay. Pigs eat pig grass and potatoes. It's all fine."

"From this point of view, it would be better if there are sheep . "Fuck."

Zhuo Yan told everyone about his plan for a breeding plant. Several people, including Ada, frowned deeply. Only A Yin flicked his tail and did not doubt the feasibility of his brother's plan at all. He was even thinking that he would catch sheep for his brother in the future.

My brother thinks sheep are good and only eat grass.

It's not that Aman and the others don't believe in Zhuo Yan, but the idea of ​​'raising' is in conflict with the past life of eating. They need to digest it slowly. Fortunately, everyone just chatted when they were tired from work and continued to work.

After the big tree was divided into sections, Ada divided it into pieces in the same old way. Several people tied the tree with vines and carried it back. They would definitely not be able to pull it all out in one go. When they went back for the second time, everyone in the tribe was beaming with joy.

"Zhuo Yan, the hunting team came back today. There was a lot of meat." A familiar orc man greeted Zhuo Yan enthusiastically.

Zhuo Yan was stunned for a moment. The other person's enthusiasm made him think that he knew the other person and was a good friend, but it was true that they only met each other when working. Other sub-orcs gathered around and told Zhuo Yan the good news. .

"Not long after you and Qiao left, some orcs from the hunting team came back first."

"Yeah, you know, they killed a mammoth."

Zhuo Yan:! ! ! wow!

"There are six more antelopes."

Zhuo Yan:! ! ! ! !

Real or fake? Is today the Chinese New Year? What a great day this is!

Ada had already asked a patrolling orc to ask about the situation. Zhuo Yan was surrounded by several sub-orcs, and he also listened attentively. What was killed was a mammoth cub that had not been brought back yet -

the orc of the tribe who died because of the mammoth. This hunt was attended by the orc's father, who lost his son while chasing a group of antelopes and mammoths. The animal father chose the mammoth.

The clan leader took a look and divided the hunting team into two. The orcs who were willing to follow to the mammoth territory could choose. He took most of the orcs to catch the antelope.

The beast father who lost his son patiently followed the traces of the mammoth herd. The experienced old beast man, with the cooperation of his teammates, killed a mammoth cub as revenge.

His son died at the feet of the adult mammoth, and the baby mammoth died in his hands.

"Qiao, I'm going to take over." Ada quickly ran back and hugged Qiao hastily.

"I know." Joe nodded and added: "We must come back."

"Okay."

Except for a small patrol team, the remaining orcs in the tribe set off. The sub-orcs who were chatting by the river now all returned to the cave, and Qiao Aman and others also said goodbye.

"Let's take the plank away tomorrow."

"Brother Zhuo Yan, we're going back first, you should go back quickly."

"I know." Zhuo Yan called A Yin, went home quickly, and closed the cave door.

There are only five people in the patrol now, and they are all elderly orcs. It's not that they are inexperienced, but if something really attacks, they really can't defeat them. Everyone still has safety awareness.

Zhuo Yan sat on the mat, holding Ah Yin in his arms, still thinking about the news just now.

"The tribe has harvested a lot this time, including six antelopes and a mammoth cub. I don't know how heavy this cub is." Zhuo Yan recalled the baby elephant in the zoo. It was quite heavy but not so heavy that all the orcs from the tribe set out to help it. .

Ah Yin squatted on the mat, raised his front paws and stepped on his brother's breasts. His brother said this was stepping on breasts, so he hid his nails and stepped on his brother's breasts gently.

Zhuo Yan was leaning back comfortably. Sometimes Ah Yin was as enthusiastic as a puppy, and sometimes he was as coquettish and clingy as a kitten. But - Zhuo Yan's eyes fell on Ah Yin's paws. This was not a kitten. Those claws were fleshy. The pads are so big and thick that when they grow up, their heads can be knocked off with a slap.

"Good A Yin." Zhuo Yan held A Yin's claw and looked at the entrance of the cave and said, "I hope everyone can come back safely, so that we can have meat to eat tonight or tomorrow."

Xiao Zhuo Yan is not very fond of the tribe . Care, or in other words, Xiao Zhuoyan and his mother depend on each other and worry about survival every day. They have no channels to obtain internal information of the tribe and don't care much about it.

Zhuo Yan lives on the edge here. He has been there several times, especially the first time he received meat. There are not many people in the entire tribe. Counting sub-orcs and orcs, there may be more than fifty people, but the tribe is very large.

Leopard people like to live apart and live alone.

Usually there is a hunting team. When they go hunting, they will basically find groups of animals. The food they hunt will be distributed to everyone in the tribe. Of course, the largest number will follow the orcs in the hunting team first. In private, sub-orcs and underage orcs can use the prey for their own purposes without having to hand it over.

Therefore, in this world, it would be really difficult for sub-orcs to live without an orc with them. They only eat potatoes and taro for a meal, and occasionally rely on the hunting team to add meat for food and clothing, and their safety cannot be guaranteed.

As for having children.

The most reliable conclusion from Zhuo Yan's analysis is that women are all addressed as "Ama" and men are called "Afather". In Ada's family, Ada's mother is an orc, so Ada was born to his father, so this can explain it.

He used to subconsciously think of modern people and call grandma to give birth to cubs. In this case, orcs and sub-orcs still have to distinguish between men and women. Then wouldn't female orcs have to give birth to children and fight and hunt?

Now this inference is simple and crude, which is very consistent with the orc world, and it feels right.

Until nightfall, the tribe was quiet. Zhuo Yan had nothing to do, so he dried the green mushrooms he brought back during the day by the fire, boiled hot water and boiled the Dudu fruit, which he and A Yin shared.

Really hungry and full.

"Go to sleep. You won't be hungry when you sleep." Zhuo Yan felt sad for his words.

Ah Yin hugged her brother and put her head against his cheek. Zhuo Yan took a bite of the hair, took a sip, and rubbed Ah Yin. Ah Yin must be hungry.

In the second half of the night, it was still dark, and there was only a clanging sound.

Zhuo Yan was still in his dream and was woken up by A Yin. He asked confusedly what happened? Ah Yin couldn't speak, so he licked his brother again, moaning. Zhuo Yan really woke up this time, and then heard a clanging sound.

He...can't hear the signal. Is this signal dangerous or should he go get the meat?

Zhuo Yan asked Ah Yin. Ah Yin jumped off the stone bed and ran to the door, and even pulled open the wooden door. Zhuo Yan probably understood the meaning. It meant that he could go out. Does that mean the hunting team was back? !

"Let's go, let's go." Zhuo Yan was full of energy!

Ah Yin ran back with the rattan basket in his mouth. Zhuo Yan looked at it and slapped his forehead, "My Ah Yin is smart and almost forgot this. Brother, take it and let's go out."

One person and one leopard, it was Ah Yin who ran in front as usual. After a while, he turned back and circled his brother to see if there was anything going on behind him. He was very alert. As he walked further into the tribe, there were more people and it became very lively.

"Zhuo Yan, you and Bai Mao Zai are here!"

A strange sub-orc greeted him.

Zhuo Yan: ...Since yesterday afternoon, these sub-orcs have been very enthusiastic towards him.

"Yeah, I heard the noise. This is my brother. He gave him a new name, A Yin."

The sub-orc man changed his mind, "The name you gave is really nice. Let's go quickly."

The team passed by There were more people, and everyone was chatting away, talking about the harvest of the hunt. One of them said: "...I heard that he was injured."

"Who was injured? Is it Alei's beast father?"

Zhuo Yan guessed , Alei should be the young orc who died.

"Yes."

Sure enough.

As for the extent of the injury, no one knew, so he was sent to his uncle. Zhuo Yan thought that the uncle should be the second in command in the tribe, managing the distribution of meat and knowing a little bit about treatment.

Finally arrived, Xiaoxian Aman called Zhuo Yan, and Zhuo Yan joined their team. Aman said: "Why are you talking to those few together."

"That's right."

There's a situation! Zhuo Yan was very gossipy: "Did you have trouble before?"

"Have you forgotten, they were the ones who beat you with Chun?" Aman was speechless.

Zhuo Yan: ...Huh?

Xiao Xian Shitou cast his eyes over.

Zhuo Yan coughed and said, "It's too dark, I can't remember people's faces, and they greeted me with smiles, so we just chatted for a while."

"They must have seen our potato field." Xiao Xian thought. He got up, "When we came back yesterday, someone asked me when the potato field outside Zhuo Yan's house would be ready."

"They also asked me how to grow it."

Shitou said, "Then did you say it? They have to beg you. "I just said."

It was Xiao Xian's turn to forget about it, "I forgot to ask them to beg me, but they didn't understand me, and everyone was in a hurry to go back to the cave, so

they didn't say everything." He has an open and frank character. Although he says, "I won't tell you," and "I won't tell you until you ask me," he always sticks to the topic every time he talks about it. After chatting about random gossip, he finally got to know the leader of the clan. and uncle.

The crowd immediately fell silent.

Now it was time to divide the meat according to the head. Everyone lined up spontaneously, the sub-orcs, the underage team, and the orc team. A Yin stood behind his brother, and Zhuo Yan stood in front.

The torches were lit.

Zhuo Yan finally saw clearly what that big black lump was - were mammoth cubs that big? !

The patriarch spoke. The mammoth was Alei's father who decided to pursue it. This ivory belonged to Alei and his father. The whole crowd said yes. The clan leader raised his hand and lowered it again, and the crowd fell silent again.

"Thank you to our brave orc hunting people."

"Thank you!"

"Let's share the meat." The clan leader said.

The crowd came forward in an orderly manner. When the uncle who was sharing the meat saw Ah Yin in front of Zhuo Yan, he just glanced at it without saying anything and directly gave Ah Yin a large piece of meat. Zhuo Yan glanced at it and said, It can weigh more than thirty kilograms.

I'm going! ! !

When it was his turn, he also had meat, more than twenty kilograms.

Zhuo Yan carried a heavy basket on his back and followed Ah Yin out. Ah Yin wanted to help him carry his stuff, "Go out first, and you will carry it later." There was someone behind him.

Unexpectedly, the uncle stopped him.

Zhuo Yan hurried over obediently and saw his uncle giving him two bones from a pile of bones thrown beside him. They were antelope bones. After Zhuo Yan took it, he thanked him and quickly left the team.

"We're going back first." Zhuo Yan greeted Sister Qiao and others.

Ah Yin ran in front of him. When he reached home, the orange sun rose and shone at the entrance of the cave. Zhuo Yan looked at the orange color on the horizon and said, "Let's have breakfast first."

He was really hungry before going to bed yesterday, so breakfast was so rich. A Yin ate half a piece of raw meat, about ten kilograms, and Zhuo Yan also wanted to grill it. , he glanced at A Yin: "Can you finish eating?"

"Ouch~" A Yin wagged his tail to express that it was okay.

Zhuo Yan started to light a fire and barbecue. There was so much meat that he had to dry it into jerky because there was no salt at home. By the time he was grilling the meat, Ah Yin had already finished the piece of meat and licked his mouth, looking a little unfinished.

"Ah Yin, there are more here." Zhuo Yan cut another big piece. Ah Yin raised his eyes to look at him, as if he was full and his brother had to eat. Zhuo Yan smiled and touched A Yin's ears. "The weather is hot and you can't save meat. You can eat it."

The idea of ​​drying the meat was abandoned at this time. Zhuo Yan discovered that Ah Yin might have never eaten enough in the past -

compared with today's meal, Ah Yin asked him to eat more when roasting chicken before.

Thinking of this, Zhuo Yan felt a little sad and gave A Yin another big piece. Anyway, an orc can last three days if he's full. "When you're really full, stop. Don't overeat."

Ah Yin nodded and looked at his brother again. Zhuo Yan said to eat, my brother had enough. Ah Yincai lowered his head and continued eating meat.

There were about fifty kilograms of meat, and Ah Yin ate more than thirty kilograms. The rest of Ah Yin shook his head, and even lay on the ground to tummy for fear that his brother would not believe it. Zhuo Yan looked at Ah Yin's bulging belly. This time Believed.

He ate two or three kilograms of barbecued meat himself, and the remaining ten kilograms could still be dried.

But -

"There is no salt at home. This elephant meat really has a salty taste." Zhuo Yan took another bite and carefully distinguished it. It had a very light salty taste, but it was really there.

Zhuo Yan also thought about the high salt content in the blood of herbivores, and elephants need to supplement the salt.

How do you replenish the elephant's salt?

You can't go to the sea people's territory, right? The Yuren Market was more than half a month away from them, let alone Hairen's territory, and the hunting team that caught the mammoth only went there for two or three days, which showed that the range of mammoth activity was not very far.

Zhuo Yan was thinking about the problem. Ah Yin didn't know what his brother was thinking. He had eaten so much today and was in high spirits. He rolled at his feet and rubbed against his brother.

"I'm thinking about salt. There should be a salt mine nearby." Zhuo Yan was rubbed by the fur and lowered his head and said to A Yin.

Ah Yin blinked, his brother was thinking about salt. He couldn't help but jump up, squatting next to his brother, wagging his tail.

The two have been together for a long time and have a good understanding. Zhuo Yan knew what A Yin was talking about at a glance, and said, "It's impossible for us to track the mammoth now, so we killed the cubs and were discovered later. This is to deliver food to people."

"It's not urgent. I also made a guess. I'll ask Sister Qiao first to find out where the mammoth tracking team has been. "

In fact, even if we know, this continent still needs orcs who have been there to guide them.

Zhuo Yan is a sub-orc and is still underage. There is no way that any orc is willing to trust his judgment that salt can be found in places where mammoths roam.

His power is too small and his words are insignificant.

Zhuo Yan ignored it evasively. He had entered estrus and was no longer a minor. However, Zhuo Yan didn't care and could still hide. He was thin and his uncle treated him as a minor when sharing meat with him. , gave him two more meat bones.

At this time, Zhuo Yan left one and gave it to A Yin, "You have nothing to do, just grind your teeth and play."

When the sun shone more than half of the cave, A Man's cry came from below: "Zhuo Yan, Zhuo Yan, let's Here we are -"

"I'm coming down." Zhuo Yan called A Yin, put the basket on his back and closed the door of his house.

Yesterday's timber has not been collected yet, so today everyone continues to work on it. On the way out together, they chatted and everyone ate barbecue. Zhuo Yan learned from Ada that there were more than ten orcs who went to meet them yesterday, and there were young people in the tribe. All the strong orcs were dispatched.

The mammoth cubs were also separated, and not all were brought back - they couldn't be moved at all. The smell of a lot of blood attracted hyenas, vultures, and some eager predators.

Zhuo Yan walked on the road, calculating in his mind. According to the hunting team and the orcs who set out to meet them, there was probably a young and strong orc in his early twenties. There were five people in the patrol team left, and there were many young and strong orcs in the entire tribe.

Half of them are sub-orcs and minors, and there are almost no old people - the oldest uncle looks like he is in his thirties or forties.

The tribe's population is estimated at more than sixty people.

According to the amount of meat, in addition to the mammoth there are six antelopes. So each of more than 20 people can carry 200 kilograms? Or three hundred pounds?

"Ada, may I ask, how much power can you carry?" Zhuo Yan asked.

"A white-horned cow."

His guess was indeed correct.

There are white-horned cattle weighing two to three hundred pounds. If you calculate it this way, the meat is not worthy. However, so many people went there yesterday not only to carry the meat back, but also for defense to prevent other animals from attacking when the leopard man split the meat.

Aman looked at Zhuo Yan with an "I knew it" expression, and then said: "Zhuo Yan must be afraid of oppressing his A Yin. If you go to the market next year, A Yin should be able to carry you. Although he is still a cub, you are so thin and only weigh the same as a white-horned ox calf. Don't worry, Zhuo Yan. "

...What and what." When Zhuo Yan looked at the other friends, they all misunderstood this. After all, he just asked about going to the market.

Qiao also said with a smile: "Ada's grandmother and father are also going this time, so I said I can bring some salt for you, Zhuo Yan. If there is no salt, you will get sick, especially us orcs."

Since then, Having said that, Zhuo Yan thought for a moment and said, "I barbecued meat this morning and found that the elephant meat was a bit salty."

"Is there any?" Xiao Xian recalled carefully, but he had salt at home and put salt in the barbecue. Now I can't even remember whether the elephant meat alone is salty or not.

The same goes for everyone else. Aman said: "You must be too salty."

"It's not what I thought. You can try it when you go back. I was wondering why the mammoth's meat tastes salty. Is it because it ate it? What tastes like salt?" Zhuo Yan finished.

Joe: "It eats grass, right? Ada."

"Eats grass." Ada confirmed, and then thought about it, "Sometimes it cleans in the mud flat."

Aman: "Is it the smell of dirty mud? Ah, but We've cleaned it and it's not dirty."

"Brother Zhuo Yan, did you not wash the barbecue this morning? It smells like mud."

Zhuo Yan: ...Okay, we can't continue the topic. Let's move on to the next question.

"The wood should be moved back in the morning. I want to water the potato field at noon. The wood will dry out for a few days."

So everyone naturally talked about door building and today's work.

Ada and Qiao still had to dig a hole, so Zhuo Yan said, "How many of us will you give this door to? As a gift to bless your marriage."

"Okay." Shitou was the first to respond.

Aman Xiaoxian also said yes.

Joe and Ada smiled and thanked their friends for their gifts.

Among the team, only Ah Yin remembers and believes what his brother said. Wherever mammoths roam, there must be a smell of salt...

Chapter 27

Zhuo Yan is pounding green mushroom powder, brushing the powder clean with a leather, pouring it into a big leaf, and then wrapping it up.

"Ah Yin, don't touch this. Your stomach hurts after eating it."

"Ouch~" Ah Yin understood. It would be fine if my brother didn't eat it.

Zhuo Yan: "How about we go for a walk when you come back from patrol tomorrow afternoon?" He wanted to unlock the strange places in the tribe.

He had never been to the hillside he went to when it was snowing in winter.

Ah Yin whined, "Okay, okay." Zhuo Yan kneaded Ah Yin's ears. The more than ten kilograms of meat left over from yesterday were used as dinner. He and Ah Yin grilled them and ate them. The elephant meat had a slight salty taste, and the meat was more tender, with less fat but not firewood.

After dinner, one person and one leopard went to the river with buckets to fetch water and wash themselves.

After the weather got hot, Zhuo Yan washed up in the morning and evening and was too lazy to boil water. After eating, he went downstairs for a walk. The tribe was very quiet at night, and there were no people at the river near the bottom of their cave.

The river water was a bit cold a few nights ago, but today Zhuo Yan didn't feel that cool. He simply took off his waistcoat and small leather skirt and jumped into the river to take a bath and swim. "Ah Yin, why are you running!"

He had just taken off his vest and raised his head. Ah Yin jumped out with a cry.

? ? ?

What are you doing?

Is there something? Zhuo Yan took off his leather skirt and was squatting in the river to ask A Yin. A Yin didn't run over when he heard his brother's cry. He watched his brother whining and whining from a distance of about ten meters.

"Is there anything?" Zhuo Yan asked.

Ah Yin shook his head, ran over and stood by the river. Zhuo Yan looked at Ah Yin's awkward look and was stunned for a moment. Then he thought of something and said in disbelief, "Don't be ashamed, are you?"

He took a bath, what was Ah Yin ashamed of.

"In the winter, we are both wrapped up in my hair, but I am not ashamed." Zhuo Yan joked, reaching out to grab the water from the river and splashing it on A Yin by the river.

Ah Yin didn't hide at all, her head was drenched with water, her ears stood up, and her eyes were round and cute.

Zhuo Yan was so cute.

"Come down, I'll wash you up."

A Yin didn't hesitate, jumped down and ran to his brother - the water on the river was shallow, A Yin's legs were quite long, and half of his body was exposed to the river. Zhuo Yan Hold A Yin's neck and wet A Yin's hair.

"Wait a minute, I'll get the bubble leaves." Zhuo Yan swam to the shore.

The bubble leaves were given to him by Qiao and several others. After the winter, several people cleaned the leather and saved a pile of bubble leaves. The remaining people didn't take them away either, leaving them all for him.

Zhuo Yan crushed the bubble leaves into pieces and rubbed them on Ah Yin's head. The hair there was wetted and quickly rubbed out bubbles with the fragrant scent of the leaves. Ah Yin looked at his brother eagerly and did not close his eyes even after the bubbles entered. Zhuo Yan noticed the smile and said, "Are you stupid? Close your eyes and enter the bubble."

A Yin then closed her eyes obediently.

The bubble leaves made foam, and Ah Yin could rub it all over. Zhuo Yan had the illusion of bathing Erha and Samoyed. After washing Ah Yin, Zhuo Yan said, "You wash the rest yourself.

" He went to the river and swam back and forth, letting the water wash away the foam.

Zhuo Yan began to clean himself.

Ah Yin swam for a while and secretly watched her brother taking a bath. He looked very cute with foam on his hair. He said he was cute, and he was even cuter. He put water on his body, his arms looked good, and his chest smelled good. He looked good.

"Let's go, Ah Yin, I'm done." Zhuo Yan felt refreshed after taking a shower. He was wearing straw sandals. The wind blew a little cold. He only wrapped up his small leather skirt and held a small waistcoat in one hand. His hair was wet. Afraid of getting my vest wet.

Ah Yin heard his brother's voice and ran out of the river in a few seconds. He went to the river and shook his hair vigorously. He heard his brother laughing next to him, and Ah Yin shook his hair vigorously again.

"Okay, okay." Zhuo Yan smiled and touched A Yin's head, "Go back."

The moon was very bright at night, and the starry sky illuminated the way home. One person and one leopard went back together. The cave was pitch black. Zhuo Yan lit the fire. His hair was still wet, and Ah Yin's hair was very dense. It looked like it had dried up after the wind blew all the way back, but in fact it was still wet inside.

"Bake yourself over the fire for a while before sleeping."

That night, A Yin's hair was fluffy and fragrant, and Zhuo Yan was also fragrant. The two slept on the stone bed. A Yin waited for his brother to fall asleep, and then sneaked over to him. Afraid of the heat, he didn't dare to stick it too tightly, just a little bit would be fine.

Brother, it smells so good.

Ah Yin sniffed, looking at his brother's sleeping face with his blue eyes, and fell asleep with his heart in mind. Before falling asleep, he thought, it would be great if he could turn into a human form. He could help his brother do a lot of work, and he could also turn into a human form. Sleep with your brother in your arms so that he doesn't get too hot.

In the evening of the next day, Zhuo Yan and Ah Yin, who returned from the patrol, went to the upper reaches of the river and found a lot of wild vegetables, some small flowers, and some small green fruits on the tree branches that were not yet ripe.

Zhuo Yan picked up a handful of wild vegetables and went home.

In the next few days, Aman Shitou and Xiaoxian came to Zhuo Yan to make a door. The wood had been dried, and several people divided the work. Those who made wooden hinges also polished the wood and trimmed the burrs. Ah Yin runs mountains with the patrol every day.

Ada and Qiao started digging holes, and their parents and brothers would help. This was a blessing from the elders to the younger ones.

At this time, the four of them were working in a wide and flat area outside the entrance of Zhuo Yan's house. The sun was very bright. Zhuo Yan stood under the crooked neck tree to enjoy the shade and said, "Let's take a rest. We have been busy all morning."

"Okay." Aman Wiped the sweat from his forehead.

Stone is still busy, using a stone knife to carefully polish the edges of the wood. This means not tired.

Xiao Xian sat on the wooden board and said, "Brother Zhuo Yan, what should we eat for lunch?"

"What do you want to eat?" There was nothing at home, just some wild vegetables. "Shall I cook wild vegetable Dudu fruit soup for you?"

Xiao Xian asked Not interested, I feel very hot.

"Then eat it cold." Zhuo Yan also felt that drinking the soup was hot and troublesome.

"What is salad?" Aman looked over.

Xiao Xian was also curious, "Can it be eaten raw? Brother Zhuo Yan, if eaten raw, your wild vegetables will be very bitter. I have eaten them secretly before."

Zhuo Yan: ...he had to find a little rabbit to see if the wild vegetables could be eaten. When trying to taste it, the orcs in the tribe had already put it into their mouths without any hesitation.

Referring to Oman's green mushrooms, I think they are pretty good.

"Just cook it, then run it through cold water and mix it up. It would be better if there is something else."

Xiao Xian's eyes lit up when he heard about it: "What else?"

"Garlic, bay leaves, chopped green onions, etc." Garlic grows in the ground, and its roots are round and white." Zhuo Yan gestured.

Xiao Xian shook his head and never saw it before. Shitou glanced at it and said, "I think I've seen it before, but it was much smaller and had green leaves on it."

"!!!" Zhuo Yan looked at Shitou with gleaming eyes.

Shitou put down the stone knife in his hand, thought about it carefully, and said, "I've eaten it before, Zhuo Yan, it was so exciting. My sister accidentally took a bite and she shed tears and said her tongue hurt."

"Exciting? Is it spicy?"

Shitou couldn't describe it, but he thought it was spicy. Zhuo Yan cried with joy. It seemed that he would have to chat with everyone more in the future so that he could find other things. "Do you still remember the location of the stone?"

Aman said at this time, "The place where his sister can go must be in the tribe."

"Yes, it's on the back mountain." Shitou said.

If the family takes care of the cubs that have not yet transformed into human form and teaches them hunting skills, they will also take the cubs to the mountains to play, climb trees, catch chickens, rabbits, snakes, and even mice and insects. Don't let go and practice agility.

This kind of cub period has also been experienced by Shitou Aman and Xiao Xian. Xiao Xian said at this time: "By the way, in a few days, there will be berries in the mountains that you can eat Brother Zhuo Yan."

Hearing this, Zhuo Yan was eager to try, but I still have to work as a doorkeeper for Sister Qiao, and it is difficult to go into the mountains, so I made do with cold wild vegetables and Dudu fruits at noon today. Several people brought their own food when they went out to work. There was a big pot of Dudu fruits, plus wild vegetables, Zhuo Blanch the rock and pass it through cold water again.

Duduguo is very elastic after drinking cold water.

Xiao Xian screamed that it was delicious and cool. Aman said: "I never thought before that you can run it under cold water after cooking."

"Yes, yes, even if the soup is cooked and left to cool down, the Dudu fruit is not as beautiful and delicious as it is now. Instead, it is sticky. "Xiao Xian likes the taste of cold salad," I make it to my grandma and dad when I get home. "

The wild vegetables are tender and refreshing, and the peaches are chewy, a bit like a mixture of rice cakes and pearls. "

"Have you tried crushing the Dudu fruit and grinding it into powder, and then baking it--" Zhuo Yan's eyes lit up halfway through the sentence. The baked rice cake is also delicious. If it is heated and then rolled by hand, will it be hand-made? Rolling state?

Although you can't eat rice pancakes, the Dudu fruit version can also satisfy your craving.

Xiao Xian was stunned. How could this be done? !

Aman and Shitou were also thinking about what Zhuo Yan said.

Shitou didn't understand: "Why do you have to break it into pieces before making it? Isn't it troublesome? Just boil it directly. If you like to eat roasted food, you can throw it into the fire with the shell. But you have to make an opening, otherwise there will be a bang."

"What is a brand?" Aman didn't understand.

"You guys wait for me, I'll try it."

Zhuo Yan just did it. He took out some Dudu fruits from home. After a winter, the shells of Dudu fruits were already somewhat shriveled and lost moisture. He pried open the shells. It's packed full of white pulp.

He squeezed some Dudu fruits into the big wooden basin, found a wooden spoon and pressed them hard, and soon the Dudu fruits turned into white pulp. Xiaoxian Aman Shitou had already watched curiously, and Zhuo Yan was not polite and handed it to Aman. Keep going.

"Brother Zhuo Yan, isn't this already broken?"

Aman took the spoon and pounded it first, while echoing Xiao Xian's words, why are you still beating it?

"It's not enough. It needs to be pounded into a paste." It's all done, so let's do it to the end.

Aman was very strong, and the originally thin and grainy Dudu fruit quickly turned into a white thick pulp.

"That's it."

Aman let go of the spoon and flicked his wrist. He was not very tired. Xiao Xian: "Brother Zhuo Yan, can you bake it now?"

"Wait a minute." Zhuo Yan held the wooden basin aside and let it sit. He felt that it was still a little thin.

Shitou looked troubled, but also curious: "How long do we have to wait?"

"I don't know. I'll check the situation later and see if I can separate."

"What is separation?"

"Brother Zhuo Yan said again that I don't understand. That's weird."

Zhuo Yan couldn't explain it in words alone, but after a while, he naturally understood what separation was. During the waiting process, several people finished the meal and continued working. Since it was a wedding gift for Qiao, they worked more carefully. Zhuo Yan also planned to install a door handle on the upgraded wooden door.

Unknowingly, Ah Yin's figure ran back first. I don't know whether it was because his hair was fluffy after taking a bath last night, or because he had really gained some weight. Ah Yin ran very fast, and his whole animal shape was very beautiful. You can see a bit of a 'majestic' feeling.

In the sunlight, Ah Yin's hair still shone with silver light.

Those are the dark leopard patterns of Ah Yin. Different from the orc leopard patterns in the tribe, Ah Yin's leopard patterns are darker. At first glance, I think it is a leopard with white hair, but under the sunlight, the silver leopard pattern will deepen. , very beautiful.

Ah Yin quickly ran to his brother, and Zhuo Yan discovered that Ah Yin was back. Ah Yin was holding something in his mouth - a bunch of red berries.

"Ah, berries!" Xiao Xian called out first, "Is it ripe now?"

Zhuo Yan stretched out his hand to take it, and A Yincai cried out, rubbing his head against his brother, and he climbed up the tree to pick the last one. The fruit is red, while other fruits are white. Orcs like to eat berries, and he found them.

Ah Yin nudged her brother with her nose, and her brother ate it quickly, it was very sweet.

Zhuo Yan saw the leaves on A Yin's hair and knew that A Yin must have gone to a tree to find fruit.

"Thank you for your hard work, Ah Yin."

Ah Yin swung his tail to show that it was not hard work, and my brother wanted to try it quickly. Zhuo Yan took the fruit, picked one, rubbed it on the skin, and fed it to Ah Yin first. Ah Yin's mouth turned cold and he looked at his brother.

"You eat first."

Ah Yin obeyed his brother the most and opened his mouth to eat. Zhuo Yan just ate the second one, and as usual, he rubbed it with his clothes and put it into his mouth. The fruit was rose red, about the size of a walnut, with a slightly rusty skin. When chewed into pieces, it tasted crispy, sweet, and slightly sour.

"It's delicious." It's quite moist. Zhuo Yan feels a bit like a little apple.

Zhuo Yan distributed the fruit to Xiao Xian and the other three, but Xiao Xian, the greediest one, waved it away. A Man even said with a smile: "You, A Yin, ran all the way to the top of the mountain and brought it back to you. We won't eat it."

" That's right." Xiao Xian also joked.

Zhuo Yan: ...This kind of joking about 'young lovers' atmosphere really makes him feel a little numb.

There were about seven or eight berries in a bunch. Zhuo Yan and A Yin ate four of them, and the remaining three were stuffed into Xiao Xian's hands. A Man ate the fruit when he saw this. Shi Shi and Xiao Xian also ate the berries. stand up.

When Zhuo Yan saw Ah Yin come back, he thought of the pot of Dudu fruit pulp that was sitting there, "Which of you wants to see it standing?"

"Me, me, me." Xiao Xian put the fruit into his mouth in twos and twos, and hurriedly followed superior.

Shitou Aman also followed, and the three of them gathered around the wooden basin and made a wow sound.

"Brother Zhuo Yan, why is there clear water on top?"

"It's so amazing, the bottom is different from the top."

Shitou hummed, his eyes were blank. It was obviously Dudu fruit juice, so no one moved it, so he just put it away. Yes, now it has become two forms.

Zhuo Yan used a small spoon to slowly take out the water-like state at the top, and then stirred it again. This time it was slightly thicker than before, and he wondered, since it could be left to separate, would it be a Dudu fruit? Can it be dried into powder?

However, the current Dudu fruit is better stored in the shell. If it is in powder form and there is no container, it is better to keep it in the shell - I will think about this aspect in the future. The shell is as good as the shell, and the powder is also good as the powder.

Several people are currently curious about this Dudu pulp, and they want to know what it is, and what the difference is between this and Dudu fruit.

"Then make a fire, and I'll bake some Dudu fruit cakes for you." Zhuo Yan felt that there was a high probability that the cake would not overturn. Dudu fruit is more sticky than flour.

The stone slabs were set up outside, and firewood was added underneath to make a small fire.

It would be nice if there was grease, Zhuo Yan thought. When the slate heated up, he poured a spoonful of viscous slurry onto the slate. Because the water had been separated by standing still, it was now so viscous that even the slate would not slip around. It quickly takes shape and emits a strange fragrance.

It kind of reminds me of the smell of roasted rice with rice milk, but it's not, it has a bit of a fresh fragrance.

The baked slurry was not transparent, and the thin edges were slightly transparent. Zhuo Yan turned it over with chopsticks, and the other side was slightly browned. It was very beautiful. Several people were stunned until the first Dudu fruit cake was baked.

"Okay, try it?" Zhuo Yan originally separated it with chopsticks, but later found that it was a little sticky, so he divided it into several portions with a stone knife. He first pinched a piece that was a little hot, blew it, then lowered his head and gave it to Ah Yin first, "Be careful. "It's hot."

A Yin rubbed her nose against her brother's hand and made a squeaking sound. The outside was crispy and a bit burned. Zhuo Yan took it away first. A Yin stuck out his tongue and said. Eat slowly and wait for it to cool down. Ah Yin will act coquettishly and pester her brother, you know.

"Brother Zhuo Yan, I didn't expect Dudu Guo could be made like this." Xiao Xian was amazed when he saw it. He had never thought that Dudu Guo could be made like this and what it tasted like.

Ah Yin took another bite and waggled his tail. My brother is so smart.

"You will know after you try it." Zhuo Yan took the second piece. Others wanted to eat it themselves. He blew on it and took the first bite. His eyes lit up. It was crispy on the outside and waxy on the inside. The original taste of Du Guo - that faint sweetness.

Just like the sweetness of rice and the fragrance of flour pancakes, Dudu pulp also has its own fragrance.

Compared with the boiled and bombed Dudu fruit, the baked one is more filling - some water has been removed, and the texture is different. Zhuo Yan thought that the boiled Dudu fruit would be more suitable for dessert. If it was baked, it would be more filling. More like pancakes.

He likes pancakes.

After being here for so long, it was the first time he ate pancakes. Zhuo Yan felt relieved about modern food - he couldn't go back, and thinking about it every day was of no avail. How should I put it, digging out the food in this world and processing it, There are different flavors.

There is also a lot of plasticity in this world.

"It's delicious." Aman nodded, the more he ate, the better it became.

Shitou said he liked this approach.

Zhuo Yan said: "Then let him make pancakes. I will try another method next time."

"Okay, brother Zhuo Yan!" Xiao Xian thought that brother Zhuo Yan was smart. They were all Dudu fruits, so Brother Zhuo Yan thought of a different way to eat it, which is amazing.

It's evening, the sun is orange and slowly disappears into the horizon.

Aman, Shitou and Xiaoxian were about to go home. Zhuo Yan sent his friends away and finished roasting the Dudu pulp. He and A Yin shared the food. It was really filling.

"Ah Yin, when you have a rest, you can take me to play in the mountains." Zhuo Yan said.

"Ouch~" Ah Yin rushed over and hugged his brother. It's okay, it can be done tomorrow. He has been running with the patrol for many days and is safe. He will lead the way and protect his brother's safety.

Zhuo Yan said: "That's not possible tomorrow. I have to work as a doorkeeper for Sister Qiao. I promise."

Brother A Yin can go any day.

The next day, Xiao Xian, Aman Shitou and the other three all came carrying half a box of Dudu fruit. Zhuo Yan said: ...are you coming to my house to hold a Dudu fruit party!

But it's all here. During lunch, a few people pounded the fruit and left it to rest. There were too many fruits today, so Zhuo Yan took out the stone pot at home, just in time to try out the feasibility of hand-rolling it, half done After making the scones, Zhuo Yan poured the other half

of the slightly thinner slurry into the stone pot, and then stir-fried it with a shovel. Except that it was a little sticky at first, but slowly, after the temperature was high, the slurry became It seemed like the dough was sticking to the stone wall, and all the paste stuck to the stone wall was stuck away, turning it into a smooth dough.

This is cooked dough. Zhuo Yan used a rolling pin to make it in the morning. When he was rolling it with his hands, he suddenly realized that it could also be eaten cold.

"Wow~" Xiao Xian didn't expect such a method, "Brother Zhuo Yan, what's this called?"

"Uh, roll the Dudu fruit?"

One part is mixed with wild vegetables, and the other part is taken out from the soup pot, both are good. The food just lacks seasoning, especially when the soup pot is boiled and taken out, it feels like eating hand-rolled flour.

Zhuo Yan: ...I made hand-made powder in the original orc world.

If you go into the mountains and find garlic, it will be a great improvement for cold noodles/cold dishes.

The three of them brought too many Dudu fruits, and in the end, Zhuo Yan asked several people to take home half of the pancakes. The three of them were not polite, wrapped them in big leaves, and put them in their respective rattan baskets.

"If you want to eat it hot, you can grill it a little."

"I know, brother Zhuo Yan."

At noon, A Yin ran back in a hurry with something in his mouth. Zhuo Yan was shocked when he saw it. He didn't recognize this thing. It seemed to have wings and could fly -

"It's a fat bird. They are stupid and can't fly high, but they are very fat." Aman said. This thing jumps back and forth on the branches of the tree. It is easy to catch but not easy to catch. It is very troublesome.

The stone expression has something of a mask of pain. Xiao Xian explained: "Brother Zhuo Yan, this is unpalatable."

Zhuo Yan:? Even the stones taste unpalatable, so that's probably not good.

The fat bird was already dead. When Zhuo Yan was cleaning it up, blood was spattered on his hand. The bird's belly was all yellow. When it was taken out, the picture was a bit disgusting, and it looked fat, but in fact it was as if it had been inflated, without much meat.

No wonder Shitou Aman and Xiao Xian dislike it.

Ah Yin's head drooped when he saw this. He didn't know. He thought that this bird was fat and had a lot of meat, so he caught it for his brother to eat.

"Didn't those orcs tell you?" Aman asked.

Ah Yin couldn't speak and was a little depressed. He made his brother happy in vain and got his hands dirty...

Zhuo Yan frowned and looked at Ah Yin, not because the fat bird couldn't eat it, but because he was worried A Yin was discriminated against by other orcs - Ada was digging holes recently and was not on the patrol.

"Are they bullying you? Other orcs." Zhuo Yan asked.

Ah Yin heard that his brother was worried about him, and immediately raised his head and rubbed his head, shaking his head and tail, no, no, no one bullied him, brother, don't worry.

"They didn't tell you this, just to see you climbing up and down the trees to catch fat birds." Shitou also became angry when he said this, "It's really annoying."

"Yeah, yeah." Xiao Xian looked at Brother Zhuo Yan , "If my second brother is transferred to the patrol team, I will go home and tell him to tell Ah Yin what can be eaten and which meat is delicious and easy to catch."

Zhuo Yan: "Thank you, Xiao Xian."

"You're welcome . You're welcome. "

These skills are actually what A Yin's beast father should do, but now A Yin's hunting skills are obviously not there. He keeps bumping and getting injured along the way and keeps accumulating new knowledge - Zhuo Yan feels bad when he thinks of this. .

At night, Zhuo Yan and A Yin were lying on the stone bed. Zhuo Yan rubbed A Yin's ears, kissed A Yin's head again and again, and his voice even picked up unconsciously, "It's okay, it's okay, A Yin is very powerful, but I don't know." I know the fat bird is not delicious, but it's great to catch it."

"Study more, Ah Yin will become very good."

Ah Yin licked his brother's cheek and became happy.

My brother is so kind. Ah Yin likes him very much.

Chapter 28

Qiao and Ada's door was ready first. On the day it was done, the hunting team came back and everyone in the tribe went to get the meat. This time there was less meat. Zhuo Yan and A Yin got about seven kilograms in total. There is also a tooth pig bone.

One piece of good news is that the orc father, Alei, who died at the feet of the mammoth, finally saved his life, but now he cannot go hunting and is recuperating in the cave.

The catch this time was a pig. Before dawn, Zhuo Yan had already refined a piece of fat meat into lard and stored a small jar, covered with a wooden lid, so that it could be eaten later as salad or pancakes.

"Zhuo Yan!" Aman's voice came from outside the cave.

"Right now, wait for me." Zhuo Yan put the oil can away and carried the basket he had prepared on his back. Ah Yin rushed outside the cave entrance and howled, then ran back to the cave to wait for his brother. Zhuo Yan touched it Ah Yin said it was okay, closed the door, and the two set off together.

Going into the mountains today.

A Yin walked in front to lead the way, A Man Shitou Xiao Xian and Sister Qiao also came. Several people said hello and chatted while walking. Qiao hadn't seen Zhuo Yan for several days. At this time, he smiled and said, "On my way here, Xiao Xian and A Man have already talked a lot about the Dudu Guo you made recently."

" What about Dudu fruit pancakes and Dudu fruit flour?"

Zhuo Yan said, "I made several pancakes this morning, so we can share them at lunch."

"I made them too!" Xiao Xian raised his hand. He and Brother Zhuo Yan made pancakes together to express their happiness.

Aman said: "I brought meat."

"Me too." Shitou said.

It's almost like an outdoor outing. Ah Yin ran at the front to lead the way, turning back from time to time to wait for her brother. They passed through the lush potato field and walked upstream to the river. After that, they reached the place where Zhuo Yan picked wild vegetables and entered the mountain from there.

The mountain here is relatively low, making it easy to climb up. The mountain on the other side of the room in the tribe is taller.

The patrol team patrols every day and creates a path.

Zhuo Yan looked at the road with only a crack blocked by weeds and said:? ? ?

Where is the road?

The mountain is certainly different from modern tourist attractions. Fortunately, this mountain is relatively graceful and the mountain road is not very steep. In addition, the orc genes are relatively strong, so Zhuo Yan's walking is not very strenuous and tiring.

very good.

Shitou first took everyone to find the spicy garlic. After walking for a while, they came to a gentle slope. Needless to say, Shitou Yan also saw that it looked like garlic sprouts, mixed with wild onions, wild grasses, and wild flowers.

"It seems, really, it is!" Zhuo Yan's eyes shone. He ran over and squatted down to pull out a piece of garlic. The bottom part buried in the soil was about the thickness of a thumb. It was white with a little purple on the outside, like a newly grown garlic. Same.

As soon as he got it in his hand, before he could put it in his mouth, Ah Yin jumped over from nowhere and took a slurp, chewing most of the garlic leaves into his mouth.

Zhuo Yan was stunned, "Ah Yin, what are you doing!!!" Isn't it spicy?

"You, Ah Yin, are probably afraid of getting a stomachache after eating this, so I'll try it for you first." Aman could tell.

Shitou said, "That's it. My sister has eaten it before. Apart from the spicy food, she cried and she didn't have any stomachache. Don't worry, Zhuo Yan, Ah Yin can't eat it bad."

"...You are such a good brother." Zhuo Yan thanked Shitou for his comfort. , rubbed Ah Yin's ears, "Don't be so messy in the future."

Ah Yin nodded obediently, he knew his brother, and then stuck out his tongue and made a fool of himself. Zhuo Yan looked so cute that he looked a little silly. Ha seems to be.

"Brother Zhuo Yan, is this really edible?" Xiao Xian saw that A Yin was so spicy that he secretly picked out a leaf and put it in his mouth. "Bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, it feels so uncomfortable."

Qiao also squatted down to see what Zhuo Yan was picking, and helped him. At the same time, he said, "If we eat like this, it won't taste good. Zhuo Yan will make it delicious." "

That's right." Xiao Xian started picking after finishing his speech.

Zhuo Yan taught everyone the difference between wild onions and garlic seedlings. Except for these two, the others are weeds and wild flowers. However, in the eyes of Aman Stone, these two just look the same, just like potatoes and taro, they are both called mud beans.

"Dig the garlic seedlings deeper, don't hurt the garlic, you can try planting it when you get back." Zhuo Yan thought about the door of his house - it was almost his territory as far as he could see, and he could plant it wherever he wanted.

Zhuo Yan wanted to engage in breeding before, but then he thought that there were few people in the tribe, and this land was vast and plentiful with supplies. Some leopard people still couldn't recognize the food they could eat. In the large grasslands outside the forest, there were such things as toothed pigs, white-horned cattle, etc. Antelope, boiling deer, horned deer, etc. In a sense, this is also the leopard man's 'breeding farm'.

It's just that these 'bred animals' will fight to the death with the leopard men.

... He should just raise chickens, rabbits, and sheep.

After finding wild onions and wild garlic, Zhuo Yan also put a garlic sprout into his mouth, and then his whole face was distorted by the spicy taste, "It's so spicy." He shouldn't have laughed at Ah Yin for being so hot just now.

Zhuo Yan also wanted to stick out his tongue.

The wild energy is so strong.

A Yin stuck out his tongue to lick her brother, and Zhuo Yan said, "No, no, it's not spicy anymore. You can go." He seemed to hear A Man's laughter, looked up, and sure enough, he caught A Man and Xiao Xian laughing secretly.

Aman: "What are you doing? I'm just smiling."

"It's just Brother Zhuo Yan." Xiao Xian also smiled.

Zhuo Yan: Hum hum, don't care about children.

The mountains are overgrown with weeds, and the trees are not as straight as the forest. The trees here are not very tall, they are crooked. In the spring, there are some short and small wild fruits within a few steps.

He picked up a handful of stones and threw them into his mouth.

You really dare to eat anything! Zhuo Yan felt that he was out of tune with the orcs because of his initial caution, and then he joined in. He threw a handful of wild fruits, sour and sweet, into his mouth. He ate one and gave a few to A Yin.

As they walked further into the mountains, the temperature was cooler and there were more snakes and insects, but strangely, few mosquitoes came to bite them. Zhuo Yan asked out of curiosity. Qiao said: "Bubble Leaf has cleaned the leather we are wearing and has taken a shower and washed our hair. Mosquitoes don't like the smell."

"! That's really smart." Zhuo Yan sighed, "Sister Qiao, where is Bubble Leaf? Is it easy to find it? "Do you want to plant them in the tribe like potatoes ?

" Qiao understood immediately and said readily: "Ada is going to hunt with his companions. I asked him to bring more garlic seedlings, like this, even with the trees. Pull it out?"

Zhuo Yan: "Is the Bubble Leaf Tree big?"

"It's not big, it reaches your waist." Aman has seen it too.

Qiao didn't wait for Zhuo Yan to answer, then said: "Then pull out one. It would be great if it can survive."

It seems that bubble leaf trees can be found everywhere and are easy to find, so Zhuo Yan didn't hesitate. Joe asked Ada to take a whole one back. While chatting along the way, Zhuo Yan even found a tree that looked like a walnut. However, walnuts only mature in autumn, and the leaves of the tree are now in full bloom.

Zhuo Yan stood under the tree and looked up to analyze whether the leaves were walnut trees. He asked, "Have you ever seen green fruits on this tree in autumn?

" It's green." Xiao Xian's face wrinkled up when he mentioned it. His mouth was all green, and he was laughed at by his second brother for a long time.

"My second brother picked it back and said it was a fruit. My mouth turned green and I didn't wash it off for several days. My father beat my second brother hard."

Xiao Xian stopped crying.

Zhuo Yan: That's walnuts.

"The green color is its skin. You can peel off the skin -"

"I peeled it off, and there's a core inside." Xiao Xian said. After peeling off the skin with great effort, there was only a small core inside, with no pulp.

Zhuo Yan: "Smash the core open again, and there will be fruit pulp inside."

Everyone present was surprised, especially Xiao Xian who scratched his head. Did he misunderstand his second brother? Zhuo Yan looked at Xiao Xian's thoughtful face and said, "Your second brother didn't remind you, and he probably didn't know either. He was just teasing you on purpose."

"Damn it!" Xiao Xian shouted angrily, "What about me? "My father was right when I beat my second brother."

At this time, several people looked up at the tree. They had all seen the green round fruit, but they didn't expect to have to break the core after peeling off the green skin. They all asked curiously: "Zhuo Yan, what's in that?"

"Brother Zhuo Yan, how do you know?"

"There used to be nothing to eat in winter. I was so hungry that I accidentally bit it open." Zhuo Yan made up a lie. Anyway, before I don't know many of them.

The faces of Qiao and others were full of sympathy. They thought about how pitiful Zhuo Yan was in the past. No wonder everyone knew this. If he wasn't hungry, who would bite open the core? The core was so hard, and the green skin made his hands dirty.

Ah Yin also believed it, swung his tail, whined, and came to his brother's side to nuzzle him.

When Zhuo Yan saw that everyone was feeling sorry for him, he immediately said, "The past is in the past." "I'm fine now and alive." Then he changed the subject, "Let's pick walnuts in the fall. These are also easy to preserve." , remove the green skin, dry the core, and just smash it open when you eat it."

"Okay, Brother Zhuo Yan, I will listen to you," Xiao Xian thought to himself, no wonder Brother Zhuo Yan is so good at cooking. I used to be hungry, so I tried my best to make something to eat.

I went into the mountains today and harvested quite a lot, including onions, garlic, and walnut trees in the mountains - waiting for the autumn to pick some red berries. Ah Yin climbed the tree very quickly, picked the reddest ones and took them down to his brother, Zhuo Yan. After wiping it, feed it to Ah Yin first.

There are also wild vegetables, including Chinese toon, watercress, and dandelion. Dandelion is the most common, which is good for clearing fire. When Zhuo Yan picked wild vegetables, several other people were watching, and some of them were still afraid of Chinese toon and dandelion.

"Brother Zhuo Yan, this smells so bad." Xiao Xian wanted to hide away.

Qiao also said: "It's a bit smelly."

"It's a bit smelly--" Zhuo Yan stopped picking it, and then looked at A Yin. A Yin whined, and if his brother liked him, he would also like it.

"I'll pick a little bit and fry it. If you don't like it, don't eat it." Zhuo Yan missed this bite and decided to pick a little bit less. "It would be better if there are eggs."

His chicken, chicken.

"Ah Yin, where do chickens usually hang out?" Zhuo Yan picked a handful and stopped. Ah Yin didn't seem to like the taste very much.

A Yin rushed in one direction and howled, and Zhuo Yan and others followed. They didn't see chickens there, but there were traces of weeds that had been pressed there. A Man said that it was possible that chickens had been there, but they ran away. The stone added that it might be some other animal.

Then Zhuo Yan rummaged through the rattan basket and found a pack of leaves.

"What?"

"Green mushroom powder." Zhuo Yan opened the leaf bag and sprinkled the green mushroom powder on the place where the chicken had no trace. After it was completely sprinkled, he clapped his hands and said, "Okay, let's go somewhere farther away. Let's have lunch and check it out later."

Several people were amazed and curious, can the green mushroom powder catch chickens?

When they went to find a place with a stream for lunch, Xiao Xian turned around every step of the way and was very curious. However, when everyone took out their things and started to build a simple stove with stones, Xiao Xian forgot about the green mushroom powder.

Zhuo Yan made pancakes, and several people had meat. The pancakes were slightly heated on the stone slab and gave off a charming aroma. Joe smelled it and said, "Is this what pancakes taste like? It's really different from boiled Dudu Guo."

"It's Dudu Guo pancakes, but today is a good day. " It smells good." Xiao Xian sniffed, "It smells really good."

Zhuo Yan: Xiao Xian eats like a dog.

"For the meat I got yesterday, I used a piece of fat meat to make lard. I brushed it with oil when making pancakes in the morning. Please wait for me." Zhuo Yan took the garlic sprouts, washed them in the stream water, and picked off the roots of the garlic sprouts. , mash it on the stone slab, pluck the leaves into garlic sprouts and sprinkle them on the cake.

"Put your barbecue on top. Put the fat first. It's okay. Just put it on top of the garlic."

Shi Shi picked the meat that was about to become fat and put it on top. The temperature of the stone slab rose, and the fat meat sizzled with grease, soaking the garlic. , a strange fragrance soon filled the air, a fragrance that several sub-orcs had never smelled before.

"It smells so good." Aman sighed. Xiaoxian swallowed and stared at the stone slab.

Zhuo Yan turned the pancake over and separated it with a stone knife. "It's ready to eat."

Each of them took a small piece. Zhuo Yan took out another pancake from the rattan basket and put it on top. The fat from the barbecue next to it would spread over, and the whole pancake would have been It has a light fragrance, the fat is crispy and there is a mixed aroma of meat, plus the spiciness of garlic.

"It's so, so delicious!" Xiao Xian couldn't wait to lick his fingers, it really smells so good, "Brother Zhuo Yan, why was the garlic so spicy just now that it's not spicy now? It's not that it's not spicy, it's just a little bit spicy. "

Zhuo Yan put the meat slices on top of the pancake and wrapped it. "

A Yin opened his mouth . It's not that spicy. It's really spicy when eaten raw. If you cook or make soup in the future, you can put some green onions and garlic sprouts in it. You can add garlic to the barbecue to enhance the flavor.

"A-yin.

" Yin has already rubbed her head against her brother. It smells so good. Brother, eat it quickly. Brother, eat it quickly.

"Okay, I'll try one too." Zhuo Yan took the cake and ate it. After adding lard and heating it, the taste of the whole cake was greatly improved. It was really perfect.

Aman and Shitou stopped talking. They followed Zhuo Yan's method of wrapping meat in pancakes and eating it. Aman took out another large piece of meat from his rattan basket. Qiao was slightly surprised, "Why do you bring so much meat? "

I met Yu when I was out this morning. He gave it to me."

Seeing the slight change in the expression on Sister Qiao's face, Zhuo Yan asked, "Yu? Does he like A Man?"

"No, Zhuo Yan ." Don't talk nonsense." Aman was about to explode.

Qiao said: "Yu is the younger brother of his sister's partner. He is younger than Aman and he only came of age this year."

"It turns out -" Zhuo Yan was temporarily stuck due to relationship issues, but this was not important, "It's okay to be younger than you, little brother It's also very good."

Before, Aman introduced his younger brother, a primary school student, and now it was finally his turn to tease Aman!

"No, no, don't talk nonsense. Eat meat and I'll barbecue it for you." Aman hurriedly went to work on the barbecue.

Zhuo Yan: It's a bit weird.

When Zhuo Yan was teasing A Man, A Yin was leaning against his brother with his head tilted. The elder brother liked his younger brother, but he definitely didn't like A Man's younger brother. A Man's younger brother was too young, so he was different. He was just right. .

It's just... Ah Yin looked at the furry paws and lowered his ears again.

The barbecue at noon was so satisfying, and my stomach was full. When we went back home after dark, Shitou reminded: "Green mushrooms."

"Yeah, I almost forgot when I was full." Zhuo Yan carried the rattan basket and everyone went to where they had scattered the green mushrooms.

Xiaoxian and Shitou walked the fastest, and Qiao was afraid of danger. Aman followed and said he would keep an eye on it, "There is nothing dangerous here, and how could you really catch a chicken just by spreading green mushrooms..."

"Come on, there is something ." !" Shitou shouted first.

As soon as Aman finished talking about what a coincidence, when he heard Shitou shouting, he ran away faster than anyone else, shouting as he ran: "Is it true? This green mushroom is so powerful!"

"Brother Zhuo Yan, come here quickly. Look." Xiao Xian's voice.

Zhuo Yan was very curious. He patted Ah Yin and asked Ah Yin to go first. He ran a few steps behind. He didn't see a single chicken where the green mushrooms were originally scattered, but the weeds, branches and vines were pressed into a mess, and there were stones and salt. Go inside along the indentation.

"Ooooooo~" Ah Yin cried.

There really is something. Zhuo Yan ran faster. When he got to the front, there was a gentle slope at the back. He was about to go down. A Yin ran back to find his brother to lead the way. Qiao and others had already arrived. When Zhuo Yan saw the scene below, he suddenly said:! ! !

Make a fortune!

At the same time, there is also "囧囧有神".

There was a large area underneath that looked like a chicken's nest. There were at least seven or eight chickens and eggs. Some had been crushed, and some rolled everywhere. The chickens were staggering around. One of them was very majestic and big, fluttering. It was struggling around in the grass with its wings, as if it had knocked its horn.

"Wow!"

"A lot of chickens."

"What's wrong with them?"

Aman said slowly, "It's the same after I eat the green mushrooms..."

Zhuo Yan has a recipe for tomorrow: scrambled eggs with Chinese toon, whatever you want. "What are you still doing? Let's catch the chicken and catch the chicken. Let's share a point."

Several people woke up from their dreams. Shitou A'man went down first, and A Yin also went to help. The flapping rooster was very powerful and flew to the small On Xian's head, Qiao protected Xiao Xian's head, while Ah Yin flew over and pinned the rooster to the ground with one paw.

After the tossing, everyone was sweating profusely, but everyone was very happy.

Zhuo Yan twisted the straw rope and distributed it to everyone. They all tied the chicken wings, "I don't care if you take them back to eat. If you want to raise them, you have to cut off part of the wings and share the eggs."

"Brother Zhuo Yan, you Caught--"

"Nonsense, everyone caught it, and the green mushrooms were contributed by Aman." Zhuo Yan knew what Xiao Xian was going to say, and couldn't help but smile: "We are all partners, why are you so polite? "

What a harvest," he said . Nearly laughed to death.

Qiao and the others are not polite. Each of them has a chicken. Zhuo Yan has two, one male and one female. Counting his A Yin, the majestic chicken is in his hands. The eggs are too broken. , only five survived, and Qiao and others didn't want them.

"Then tomorrow I will scramble eggs with Chinese toon, and you come to my house for dinner."

Xiao Xian: "That smelly wild vegetable?"

"You will know how delicious it is when you come." Zhuo Yan is eager to try it, and can't wait to show off his skills tomorrow.

Xiao Xian thought about it for a moment, trusting Brother Zhuoyan to cook, and then nodded happily.

Several people went down the mountain together. It was already dark when they arrived at the bottom of the mountain. After saying goodbye, Zhuo Yan had a chicken in one hand and a rattan basket behind his back full of harvests. They were all humming on the way back. A Yin ran behind his brother and pushed his head against his brother. The backpack.

"No, no, no, I feel like I have endless energy now."

When he got to the cave, Zhuo Yan didn't rest. He used the remaining wood at home to make a fence. However, this project was obviously a bit difficult, so he decided to wait for tomorrow's small work. When my friends came together, we did it outside the cave, opposite the crooked neck tree and along the mountain.

The wings of the chicken were still tied with straw ropes. Zhuo Yan thought about the fighting power of animals in this world without any ambiguity. The chickens here were very big, and their wings were spread out like big birds. Zhuo Yan used a stone knife to break off half of the wings.

When they arrived at the rooster, the chicken that had fainted started struggling with great strength and a sharp beak. If Zhuo Yan hadn't let go quickly, he would have been pecked. But as soon as he let go, the rooster fell to the ground and flapped its wings to fly. Walk.

"Eh--"

Ah Yin had already pounced on him, covering the rooster's head with a big paw. The rooster looked majestic and fierce in Zhuo Yan's hands. At this moment, Ah Yin was so slapped that he fainted again. .

Zhuo Yan finally got the wings.

After thinking about it, it was impossible to be lazy tonight, so he built a simple fence in the hole with wood chips and put the two chickens in it. As for the eggs, Zhuo Yan thought for a while but did not put them in.

Zhuo Yan had seen the cruelty of animals in this world when the mother of the tooth pig went crazy to protect the baby pig. He broke the wings of two chickens, and maybe they would give him a "chicken flying egg" when they woke up. Both jade and stone will be destroyed.

Zhuo Yan didn't know that his move was the right one - he saved the egg.

After finishing everything, Zhuo Yan was covered in sweat. He wanted to go to the river to wash himself. "Ah Yin, you come with me." To be honest, he was a little scared to go to the river to take a bath alone.

Although the tribe is quite safe.

Ah Yin heard the sound and whined happily. She held the bubble leaf in her mouth and turned to look at her brother. Brother, let's go quickly~

"...I'll close the door." Ah Yin loves taking a bath so much?

Kittens and puppies don't like bathing. After Zhuo Yan thought about it, he later thought that leopards might like to take baths. He had never raised a leopard before, so it should be normal.

When Zhuoyan Ah Yin came up after washing up, fortunately the door was closed, the two chickens, especially the rooster, woke up. The straw ropes binding their wings had long been broken, and they were stumbling and tossing around. The firewood pile in his kitchen, The stone pots were all stained with chicken feathers.

"Fortunately, I put the lard jar somewhere else."

Ah Yin looked at his brother's clean house, which was messed up and dirty. He bent down low and roared at the chicken. The rooster that had just flapping fiercely started again. He became like a wilted, sick chicken, waving his injured wings and fled to a corner.

The hen was already nestled in a corner, motionless.

Zhuo Yan feels that breeding and domesticating these animals is actually not easy. The orcs are too ferocious and will scare the chickens, which can easily make them sick or to death. However, if left unchecked, these chickens will run away with their heads full.

However, at this moment, the original orc world breeding farm took a small step in his and A Yin's cave.

Chapter 29

I don't know when it will start, but Ah Yin will sleep outside on the stone bed. Zhuo Yan was the first to pick up A Yin. At that time, A Yin was very thin and needed someone to take care of her at night. Zhuo Yan would get up from time to time to boil water and feed A Yin to drink. Sometimes A Yin would vomit, and Zhuo Yan would have to clean it up.

But it seemed that winter was over, and not long after, Ah Yin began to sleep outside.

If there is any noise in the night, Ah Yin is the first to alert and prick up his ears. Sometimes Zhuo Yan is half asleep and half awake, and hears the noise. He vaguely asks Ah Yin, and Ah Yin comes over with his furry head and licks him. Zhuo Yan knew that it was nothing serious and probably just the wind, so he fell back to sleep.

It seems like this has been going on for a while.

Zhuo Yan slept on the stone bed as usual tonight, and said to A Yin: "If the chickens make a fuss at night and want to escape, please help keep an eye on the chickens and don't kill the chickens."

"Ooooooo~" Ayin shouted softly , sticking out his tongue and licking my brother, brother, please go to sleep, I'm watching.

well. Zhuo Yan was tired from climbing up and down today and couldn't open his mouth. He thought to himself that Ah Yin was so enthusiastic and that he would lick his fur every night before going to bed - not just his hair, but his cheeks.

Go to sleep.

Zhuo Yan slept well that night, but he was right, that rooster was not a fuel-efficient lamp! Until late at night, the cave was quiet, and the rooster began to fidget. It just stretched its wings and found the right position to take off - but because its wings were clipped, it fluttered and fell to the ground.

Ah Yin, who was sleeping on the stone bed, opened his eyes and showed a bit of displeasure. Such a big leopard jumped off the stone bed lightly and quickly arrived in front of the rooster.

Originally, the rooster crowed and the hen moved out, but was enveloped by a huge black shadow. The hen's outstretched paw froze in mid-air in fear, and then slowly retracted.

The black shadow Ah Yin gently held down the rooster with one paw.

My brother said he wanted to keep them alive, and he wanted to raise these two. Ah Yin's foot was very light, but it made the rooster tremble. Then Ah Yin put away his claws and did not return to the bed. Instead, he squatted there, looking down at the two chickens, just staring at them.

Although my brother says he wants to support you, the only one he likes and loves the most is me!

And my brother means to fatten you up so that I can eat you.

Brother will not eat me.

You'd better be good and don't disturb your brother when he sleeps.

Ah Yin stared at the big chicken. It was so ugly that it didn't look good at all.

Zhuo Yan fell asleep soundly that night, and did not notice that Ah Yin had not come back from the bedside. When it was almost dawn, Ah Yin jumped back on the bed and closed his eyes next to his brother.

He was too tired yesterday. Zhuo Yan was a little lazy to go to bed in the morning. When the first ray of sunlight shone into the cave, he woke up in a daze but did not get up. He covered A Yin with the leather on his body, "Why are you always not covering it completely? Now Even though it's not cold, his belly still needs to be covered."

The two large leather bags at home were washed and put away, and now he is covered with two small leather bags, but Ah Yin's leather bags will get on him.

Zhuo Yan stretched his legs on the bed, and Ah Yin also got up. He couldn't help but say, "Lie down for a while, and let me give you a hug."

Ah Yin stretched out his body and threw himself into his brother's arms. Zhuo Yan got up early and stroked the furry Ah Yin, thinking about yesterday's harvest. Sister Qiao's door was also made, so he didn't have to get up too early today, so he felt at ease and lay down to play with Ah Yin on the bed. Ah Yin liked his brother to touch him, leaning on his side. He touched his brother's ears and turned over to expose his belly.

It wasn't until the light in the cave became very bright that Zhuo Yan got up. Wearing a small leather skirt and waistcoat, he opened the cave door for ventilation and better lighting. Only then did he see the two chickens huddled in the wooden fence in the corner.

The wooden fence was very short, reaching to his knees, so the two chickens didn't jump out?

Zhuo Yan looked at Ah Yin, "They were so good last night and didn't bother them?" Why didn't he believe it?

"Awwwwww~" Ah Yin ran over to complain to his brother. The two chickens were very messy last night. They raised their heads and rubbed their heads against his brother's legs. It was only after he cleaned up that they calmed down.

Zhuo Yan understood, "Let me tell you, Ah Yin is the best!"

Ah Yin held his head high and moaned.

The two chickens were drooping and groaning. Zhuo Yan looked at them and decided to treat them better today, "Eat breakfast first. Ah Yin, if you have anything to eat while patrolling, you can eat it yourself. Brother has some." "

Ouch~" Ah Yin understood.

After washing up in the morning, Zhuo Yan spread pancakes, fried eggs and Chinese toon with lard, rolled the pancakes and ate them. He fed A Yin three portions. A Yin shook his head and pressed his head against his brother's hand. Zhuo Yan also ate. I took two and split the last one in half with Ah Yin.

After breakfast, Ah Yin went on patrol, and Xiao Xian and others also came.

"Brother Zhuo Yan, my second brother is going to the patrol team today, I told you." Xiao Xian chirped as soon as he came in.

"Thank you, Xiao Xian." Zhuo Yan touched A Yin's ear and said, "Learn to hunt with brother Xiao Xian. Let's go."

After sending A Yin off to the patrol team, Zhuo Yan was busy with work today - he planned to go outside the cave Making a chicken coop, Aman, Shitou, Xiaoxian and three others were staring at his two chickens.

"Zhuo Yan really didn't kill him and eat him," Aman said.

Xiao Xian: "These two chickens are so fat, especially this one. Yesterday I made the grilled chicken according to Zhuo Yan's method of making grilled fish. It was delicious, but rolling the wooden stick back and forth made my hands tired."

Shitou . Nodding aside, his sister had a big appetite recently and was about to turn into a human form. When she saw him bringing the chicken back, she got attached to him. Shitou killed the chicken and gave it to his sister. Most of it was eaten by his family, and the rest of the family ate the other half.

At this time, several people came to help Zhuo Yan build a chicken coop, mainly because they had never raised chickens before and wanted to see what a chicken coop looked like. Zhuo Yan saw that there were so many people today, so he simply built a stove.

"We need yellow mud, slates, and wood." Zhuo Yan analyzed the materials and found that his family had wood. Last time he helped Sister Qiao make a door with a lot of wood, which was more than enough to make a chicken coop. "Why didn't Sister Qiao come today?"

Xiao Xian: "Her house is in a cave today."

Leopard tribe's residence: cave. A good hole requires a wide and high interior space. After the hole is drilled, the surrounding walls must be compacted to prevent dust from falling off. After that, firewood must be used to dry it to make it stronger and dryer.

Apart from the poor lighting, Leopard People basically spend the day outdoors. There are gentle slopes and small yards at the entrance of every cave. They can sleep at night. The cave is warm in winter and cool in summer, and has good defense functions - after having a door. Better.

"Zhuo Yan, what is the stove you are talking about?" Aman was curious about this.

"It's not that I'm trying to show off, but I can't explain it clearly. You'll know after I make it."

"Brother Zhuo Yan is saying weird things again. This stove must be very good."

Shitou nodded, agreeing with Xiao Xian's words.

The few people worked separately, making wooden fences first. Zhuo Yan went to collect yellow mud with a backpack, A Man Shitou carried a bucket to fetch water, and Xiao Xian watched the two chickens at home.

There is a Huangni tribe, and Zhuo Yan knows where it is. There is a piece of land in the upper reaches of the river that has been washed away by the river all year round. The mud quality is very good, there is no sand, and the viscosity is also high. After Zhuo Yan dug a basket full of it, he picked it up when passing by the grass pond. There were some dry grass stalks on the ground.

This is added to the yellow mud to increase the viscosity.

Seeing that Zhuo Yan was carrying a basket, Shitou handed the bucket in his hand to A Man, ran over to help Zhuo Yan and said, "I'll carry it."

"It's too heavy if you don't need this."

Shitou glanced at Zhuo Yan and said, "So I'll carry it and forget about your body."

"Shitou, I know you are very kind, but your eyes seem to be calling me weak." Zhuo Yan unloaded the basket. , it's really heavy. In order to save him one trip, he packed a lot of it, "Let's carry it together."

"No need." The stone was easily carried on his back without any difficulty. Then he looked at Zhuo Yan and said, " That fat chicken of yours looks quite fat."

Zhuo Yan:? ? ?

He reacted for a while, and then he realized that the stone meant that he was worse than a fat chicken.

Really!

"I will grow up in the future." Zhuo Yan ran forward in a few seconds and supported Shi Shi's backpack with his hands. Shi Shi didn't say no, but just said: "You will get fat if you kill the chicken and eat it."

"That won't work. I want to raise them."

Aman carried two buckets of water easily and joined the chat group, "I don't know why you want to raise chickens. They are so good."

"This is the savings ration for me and Ayin. Buy potential stocks -" Zhuo Yan saw that both of them were confused, and changed his approach, "The weather is hot now, and prey is easy to catch. The tribal hunting team will divide the meat every two days, and the chickens can be raised to lay eggs. When the chickens are regenerated, two will become seven or eight, and seven or eight will become seventeen or eight, and we can eat chicken every day."

Who knew that when Aman heard about eating chicken every day, his face showed clear disgust, "You are so stupid. What day is it?"

"You eat this every day, Zhuo Yan, you are working so hard." Shitou felt sad for Zhuo Yan, and simply carried the basket on his back to let Zhuo Yan rest, and he couldn't even eat well.

Zhuo Yan:? ? ?

Is chicken the food contempt chain in this tribe so serious?

It's really serious. Chickens are very disliked by the orcs in the tribe. They have a lot of hair, little meat, and internal organs. Orcs who are able to hunt as adults will not bother to eat this. Even orcs who have just succeeded in transforming into an animal form don't really want to put in the effort. Catch this.

If you only catch chickens as a child, you will be laughed at by other orcs and feel that you are incompetent.

The orcs are basically clawing pigs.

"Then what if I raise toothed pigs in the future?" Zhuo Yan still held a basket on his back.

Shitou first said it was impossible. Aman explained from the side: "You saw the Yazhu last time. In fact, most of the time the Yazhu grandma and her cubs go out in a group. They are crazy and can't be contained. They will break the wooden boards you make."

" What if the pigs are castrated - that is, the cubs are caught, and then their crotch and balls are cut off when they are young?"

Aman felt his crotch feel cold, and some water from the bucket in his hand spilled out, and he looked at Zhuo Yan. The beast tide was almost gone, so he stumbled and asked, "You, the Jiji you are talking about, is it their mating part?"

"Yes." Zhuo Yan nodded.

Shitou stopped and looked back at Zhuo Yan.

Zhuo Yan: "What?" Innocent.

"I feel sorry for the baby tooth pig. If you want to eat it, just eat it. Don't raise it."

Aman: "That's it." He even learned Xiao Xian's mantra.

"I just thought about it, and you are right. If you catch the cubs and raise them from an early age, it will take a lot of effort and it will not be easy to reproduce. It is better for them to grow up happily eating grass with Meimei, and then the orcs directly capture them. ." Zhuo Yan said.

Aman's head was clicking like a chicken pecking at rice, and he said: "Yes, yes, so don't raise toothed pigs."

"Then raise some docile animals." Zhuo Yan changed his strategy and seemed to be thinking. There is still a difference between breeding farms and modern animals. "Are there any animals that eat grass and are docile?"

"Lama, antelope, one-horned deer, little bear, rabbit, and a kind of long-legged rabbit."

"Yes, long-legged rabbit." Rabbits are better, they are a bit bigger than the ones with short legs." Aman now also started to think about which kind of rabbit is better to raise. After thinking about it, he felt something was wrong. He didn't want to raise anything, and almost fell into Zhuo Yan's trap.

Zhuo Yan's eyes lit up, long-legged rabbit? This is good, it eats hay and reproduces quickly, but rabbits can dig holes and the nests need to be well cleaned.

After thinking about future breeding plans, I first packed up the chicken coop when I arrived at my door.

"Brother Zhuo Yan, come quickly, this hen seems to be dying." Xiao Xian ran towards the cave entrance and shouted when he heard the footsteps.

"Ah!" Zhuo Yan was shocked. Could it be that his breeding business was about to end in one day? He immediately ran back, and Xiao Xian pointed at the rooster, "Not long after you left, this chicken started beating the hen. It was very fierce. He screamed, hit the hen with his wings, and even pecked my hand. "

Zhuo Yan: "Are your hands okay?" This rooster is really fierce.

"It's okay, I hit it on the head too." Xiao Xian was not polite.

Zhuo Yan glanced at the wilted hen, which was his treasure, and said, "Let's separate for a while. I'll let the hen out and let it relax." As for the male, he ignored it and continued to confine it.

The hen's wings were injured, and he was cooped up with the grumpy rooster. Zhuo Yan had noticed that the hen was wilted since he got up in the morning, and he was in a bad mood. At this moment, he carried the hen out of the cave and put it aside casually.

"Is this possible? Aren't you afraid that it will run away?" Aman asked.

Zhuo Yan said: "The wings are injured, it can't fly, and this one is relatively timid."

A few people ignored the hen and started building a chicken coop. Zhuo Yan chose a location on the gentle slope downwards from the entrance of the cave, ten meters away from his home cave. If it was too close, there would be a smell, so he planned to dig a hole into the mountain wall first.

"The hole doesn't have to be too big, as high as this." Zhuo Yan gestured to his waist, "It doesn't have to be very deep, it's best to be wider. When it rains, the chickens can be driven in. If it rains during the day, let them out and I'll build a fence outside."

"If you go wild in the future and are mature, you can keep them free-range and let them air on the gentle slope below."

The stove is placed one or two meters above the entrance of the cave. This does not require digging a hole, just building it with yellow mud and stone slabs. Build an earth stove.

After listening to Zhuo Yan's words, several people understood that the chicken coop was easy to build.

"Brother Zhuo Yan, what exactly is the stove you are talking about? Can we make the stove first?" Xiao Xian was very curious about this.

Zhuo Yan: "Okay, let's build the stove first. I have to find some more slates and stones."

"I'll look for it. How big of a stone do I need?" Shitou asked first. Aman nodded, meaning that the two of them would go together. Zhuo Yan said the size of the stone, and it would be better for this stone to be bigger.

"Is this big?" Aman wondered. Isn't this a small stone?

Zhuo Yan: ...He has forgotten the understanding of size in this era.

The two went to look for stones. Zhuo Yan took a wooden stick and began to determine the location of the stove. This time he wanted to make a stove with two holes. One hole was larger to fit the stone pot, and the other hole was smaller to barbecue. The stone slab can be used for barbecue, and there is also a smoke hole for smoke exhaust. When it is built, just insert wood into the smoke exhaust hole and pull it out from the yellow mud-covered area.

There is no need to build a shed for the stove first.

Zhuo Yan drew a rectangular shape on the ground to support the stove. In the later stage, he could build a simple shed so that he could cook without getting wet when it rained.

When Oman Stone came up with the stones on his back and the two baskets of stones fell to the ground, he could finally start making the stove. Zhuo Yan began to knead the yellow mud, added the dry grass stalks into it, and taught the three people to build the stove wall with stones and at the same time use yellow mud. Touch the mud and strengthen it.

A layer of yellow mud, a layer of stone, and finally yellow mud solidify the entire frame.

The position of the stove hole where the stone pot is placed is a circle smaller, so that the stone pot can be placed just right. Otherwise, the weight of the stone pot will be too heavy and the stove hole will become larger and larger——

"It would be great if there were clay pots." Zhuo Yan looked at the yellow clay stove, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he took a picture of himself, "Why did I forget this!"

"Brother Zhuo Yan, why are you beating yourself? Even Aman Don't beat yourself up if I'm too stupid." Xiao Xian said.

Aman retorted: "Xiao Xian, you are stupid. I didn't do anything well. I just followed Zhuo Yan's instructions. This one is a little too small."

"Not too small, not too small, just right. I just thought of it. " " You can use the stone pot in the future."

"Then what to use?"

Zhuo Yan: "If the clay pot is fired successfully, it should be enough for cooking and making soup. Even if it cracks later, we will use the clay pot. It's enough, just burn it again."

Xiao Xian scratched his head, "Brother Zhuo Yan, I don't understand what you are saying."

"What else is there to burn?" A Man was also confused.

Zhuo Yan: "Let's build the stove first. I find that I have to do more and more." There is really a lot of work. The short shelter above the cave entrance has not yet been built, and the shed for the stove has not been built yet. The chicken coop has not yet been built. Breeding, and the burning of clay pots that I imagined in my head.

This is all living.

"Brother Zhuo Yan, don't be afraid. We can help with whatever work you have to do in the future." Xiao Xian patted his chest and said.

Aman patted Xiaoxian's chest and said with a smile, "Me too." Then when Xiao Xian glared at him, A Man was not afraid and said: "Don't be stingy.", "Just pat yours.", "Oh, I'm just like patting yours."

Zhuo Yan saw the two bickering, but the stone was still very solid. Continue to help him paste the yellow mud.

Soon the two people who were bickering joined in. When finally pulling out the stick from the smoke vent, Xiao Xian was still cautious for fear of breaking it. Zhuo Yan said no, don't worry. Xiao Xian pulled out the stick and said, "Hey, Zhuo Yan Brother Yan, the hole is big."

"It's okay."

Xiao Xian felt relieved.

"I'm going to grab some firewood and let's burn it first." Zhuo Yan went into the cave and carried a bundle of firewood, using dry grass as a starter. The sparks from the flint hitting the dry grass quickly started a fire.

The four of them gathered around the freshly baked stove to watch.

"Brother Zhuo Yan, the fire is on, why did it come out from here?"

"That's the stove hole. There is a stone pot on it or used for cooking. I won't put it there for now and use the fire to dry the yellow clay stove."

Aman said: "There are fires in these two caves, so it will be very convenient for Zhuo Yan to cook in the future."

"That's right."

Aman's eyes were bright, and he looked at Zhuo Yan with praise: "Zhuo Yan, you are better now." You're getting smarter, how did you come up with this good idea?"

"Maybe you just thought about it." Zhuo Yan fooled around.

And Aman didn't really ask 'How did you come up with it?', he just wanted to praise Zhuoyan for his smart mind. Shitou pointed to the hole in the back and said, "There is smoke coming out of here. If you cook food in the future, the hole will not be so choked."

"Yes, it will be much cleaner if the stove is placed outside, and the hole will be less choked. " But if it rains, we still need to build a shed outside." Zhuo Yan said.

Aman patted his chest first and said: "What's the matter here? Do you want to chop wood? We can help. It's just Zhuo Yan. Can you come to my house and help me build this stove? I just finished reading it, but I still don't seem to understand it. "

"Yes, but your parents are willing." Zhuo Yan said.

Aman didn't dare to guarantee this right away. Even Xiao Xian on the side, after Aman said that, he was also scrambling to make one for himself. Now after hearing Zhuo Yan's words, he swallowed back his excitement. He still wanted to ask. Father.

"I suddenly want to get married." Shitou said suddenly.

Zhuo Yan: ...No, you want to get married because of a stove. Stone, please wake up! ! !

We won't make dumplings just to get some vinegar.

"Qiao and Ada are partners and live together. Qiao has the final say on the layout of the cave. Of course, I just feel that I am not young anymore. Sometimes I go into heat at night and my father and mother are still mating——"

Zhuo Yan:! ! !

"Shitou, there is no need to talk about the life of your father and mother." Zhuo Yan reminded weakly. Now everyone is really open about this, but he is still a reserved person.

"Actually, I'm embarrassed too." Shitou said.

Zhuo Yan: I didn't see that you were embarrassed.

"Stone said so. I also think it's good to have a partner." Aman also started.

Xiao Xian: "Yes, yes."

"You're not an adult yet, so stop thinking nonsense." Aman patted Xiao Xian on the head, what was he thinking.

Xiao Xian held his head and groaned in dissatisfaction: "I am taller than Brother Zhuo Yan."

"Then you are not an adult either."

Shitou added: "You are not in heat, Zhuo Yan is in heat."

Zhuo Yan stood aside , he almost burst into tears. He didn't understand why everyone just made a stove in broad daylight and why everyone's conversation got into this aspect. Wai Wai Wai Wai Wai Wai Wai Wai Wai Wai Wai Wai Wai Wai Wai Wai Wai Wai Wai Wai Wai Wai Wai Wai Wai Wai Wai Wai Wai Wai Wai Wai Wai Wai Wai Wai Wai Wai Wai Wai Wai Wai Wai Wai Wai Wai Wai Wai Wai that with the eldest brother by the way.

He finally figured it out. Aman was usually a talker, Shitou was really sultry, and Xiaoxian was just joining in the fun, chatting along with everyone.

But after chatting for a while, the topic finally passed. Zhuo Yan said very stiffly: "Let's dig the chicken coop."

"Zhuo Yan, are you shy?" Aman still had some unfinished thoughts on the topic.

"..."

Shitou looked at Zhuo Yan, who was silent, "Your Ayin is still young and hasn't reached estrus yet, so please bear with it for a while."

"!!!" No, what should I bear? Does he look horny?

"Shitou, I'm going to fight you!"

Finally, Aman Xiaoxian looked at Shitou and held Zhuo Yan/Brother with one hand. Zhuo Yan: ...Am I the weakest in this world?

But it was all a slapstick fight, with a smile on Shitou's face. He felt that his relationship with Zhuo Yan's partner was better. In the past, Zhuo Yan would not scratch his itch, so he let go and let Zhuo Yan Yan patted his shoulder, but it didn't hurt.

Zhuo Yan: Shitou has really grown up eating rocks. The muscles on his shoulders are so hard.

So when digging the hole for the chicken coop, Zhuo Yan was curious, "Shitou, if you want to form a partner, do you have an orc you like?"

"...I forgot to look for an orc." Shitou was really stunned. He just wanted to find a partner and live together, but he never thought about who he would marry. He thought about the orcs in the tribe's hunting team and patrol team, and finally said: "Forget it, I'll stay at home for a while longer."

"My father. If mom wants to mate, it's fine if I don't listen."

Zhuo Yan: ...

Are you and your sister going to have a little brother or sister?

Today in Hardcore Gossip, everyone was digging holes with great enthusiasm, and the progress was amazing. They were dug quickly. Zhuo Yan and Xiao Xian ran to the grass and picked up a lot of hay stalks, and made dry holes for the chicken coop. Xiao Xian He said Brother Zhuo Yan is really nice to chickens.

"This will be the food rations for Ah Yin and I in the future." After Zhuo Yan finished speaking, he noticed that it was getting late. Logically speaking, Ah Yin would only patrol for half a day and would be able to come back at two or three o'clock in the afternoon. Why hasn't he come back today? ?

As everyone knows, A Yin ran out in the morning to find the patrol team. Xiao Xian's second brother called A Yin first with a leopard. The two beasts walked side by side. Xiao Xian's second brother muttered and roared all the way, while A Yin listened.

Wait until you reach the mountain and walk halfway.

Xiao Xian's second brother called Ah Yin, "Are you going to catch prey? There are only rabbits and cockatrices in the mountains. Let's go find something else."

Ah Yin was a little hesitant, because his brother said he wanted to patrol.

"Everyone in the team knows that you only patrolled for half a day, and now you have finished patrolling."

Everyone in the patrol team did not set off in a uniform team. Leopards naturally like to be alone. When patrolling, they are allocated places. Today you go this way and I will go that way. They work in twos and threes and can retreat after patrolling the territory.

The second brother Xiao Xian has a lot of dissolute nature, "Are you leaving? No matter how much I tell you, it's better for you to catch it and give it a try. I know there is a place not far from the tribe. My elder brother and I have been there before. , there are antelopes over there. "

Sheep?" ! Ah Yin's ears stood up, her brother wanted to raise sheep.

Oooh ooh. I go, I go.

So the two leopards crossed the mountain directly, and Brother Xiaoxian led the way out of the tribe's territory...

Zhuo Yan made lunch and dinner, probably around three or four in the afternoon, and scrambled two eggs in the morning. The eggs here are very big. , there are three left, and the new stove has been dried at high temperature. Zhuo Yan happened to use the new stove to fry toon with eggs, make pancakes, and use the pulp of the Dudu fruit to cook a pot of egg drop and wild vegetable soup. .

"Wow! Brother Zhuo Yan, these two holes are so convenient for cooking." Xiao Xian was amazed when he saw it.

Zhuo Yan used a stone slab to fry toon eggs and make soup in a stone pot. The two stove holes were really convenient, and both could get hot food. A few people could eat while standing on the stove.

"Is this the smelly wild vegetable from yesterday?" Aman took a bite and thought it was okay, but he didn't want to take a second bite. "The eggs are delicious."

Shitou nodded and agreed.

Xiao Xian, on the other hand, frowned and took a bite of the pancake. After a while, he couldn't help but pick up his chopsticks and said, "It seems a bit delicious."

"Right, right? But my A Yin doesn't either. I like toon, most of it went into my mouth this morning, and Ah Yin ate a few pancakes." Zhuo Yan said this and looked down unconsciously.

Why hasn't Ah Yin come back yet?

At this time, a silver leopard and a leopard followed the scent of the antelope and finally found the grazing antelope. A hunt was just around the corner.

Chapter 30

Brother Xiao Xian lowered his body and hid in the grass. He was a leopard. He could perfectly hide his figure in the grass between yellow and green, and try to contain the murderous intention in his body.

Ah Yin followed the example of brother Xiao Xian, but stopped just as he crawled into the grass.

【What are you doing? 】Brother Xiao Xian made eye contact.

Ah Yin looked at the distance, and then at the pattern of Xiao Xian's second brother hidden in the grass. He was silver-white and couldn't be hidden here.

[Let me go around. ] Ah Yin slowly backed away from this territory.

Brother Xiao Xian actually didn't understand. Seeing A Yin running away, it didn't matter. He thought A Yin might be young and impatient. Anyway, this area is full of antelopes. Even if the leader of the sheep found him, he could do it alone. Can beat it - As for the attack of sheep, if you can't beat it, you can still climb the tree and run away.

But...it's not that big of a deal, just a few sheep.

Brother Xiao Xian's eyes were fixed on the family of three who ran to the river to drink water. The ewe was so fat, but the ram next to him looked very wary.

On the other side, Ah Yin retreated from the grassland area, walked around for a long time, covered his body with the mountain, made a long circle, and arrived dozens of meters behind the antelopes, and moved forward slowly. These sheep were very smart and did not move around. In the woods, it is flat grassland.

Ah Yin searched around the front and found that there were high and low slopes. He wanted to lean lower and lower his body so that he could hide his figure.

So it was dozens of meters away, slowly becoming more than ten meters away, and then slowly getting closer.

Ah Yin stopped moving. He was looking for the target. When he locked the target - they were two lambs, the horns hadn't grown out yet, they only had soft ears. My brother must like them very much - he thought of this , Ah Yin's ears moved unconsciously.

What should I do if my brother likes to touch these two lambs' ears?

But my brother will like it.

My brother won't eat him.

Not the same.

Ah Yin once again focused his attention on the two lambs grazing leisurely. The adult antelopes were on guard by the river, but this place was far away from the river, so the lambs and ewes could graze without worries.

Brother Xiao Xian was the first to move out among the grass by the river. The speed was so fast that the sheep by the river were startled and scattered in all directions. Almost at the same moment, A Yin rushed towards the target like a bolt of lightning.

The sheep's exclamations, mixed with the sound of running in the wind, soon stopped for a moment.

Ah Yin was very fast. He slapped the lamb under his paws. The lamb kept struggling, and then slowly started bleeding from its neck. The blood stained the grass. The lamb was still twitching. Ah Yin His eyebrows were a little annoyed, and he showed his teeth in his lower mouth and gave the lamb a good slap.

He had forgotten the power of his slap, which was too heavy for the lamb.

Thinking of what his brother said, Ah Yin licked the blood from the lamb's neck, then picked up the lamb and ran towards the river. At this time, the sheep had scattered and fled in all directions on the grassland continent.

"Did you catch it? That's great." Brother Xiao Xian turned into a human form.

Ah Yin put down the food in his mouth and whined.

The second brother Xiao Xian patted the grass on his body and said, "That fat ewe has a big belly. She must be pregnant with a cub. During the spring breeding season, the old orcs said that they encountered breeding and pregnant animals." Don't kill him."

"Let's go. No wonder the ram went crazy and almost hit my waist. Fortunately, I dodge quickly."

Ah Yin used his head to push the lamb's body toward Brother Xiaoxian. The edge pushed the top.

"So polite?" Brother Xiao Xian was stunned for a moment, "You caught this, are you sure you want to give it to me?"

Ah Yin cried out anxiously, not for you, but for sharing half with you, and he also wants to give it to his brother Take it back.

"I know, I know, you still have to get it back for your partner." The second brother Xiao Xian deliberately smiled at this moment and was not polite, "You beat me, if you are willing to give me half, then I won't be polite. I will Running errands."

Ah Yin nodded.

The second brother Xiao Xian transformed into a leopard and easily picked up the lamb on the ground. Occasionally he mumbled a few words, "Let's go quickly.", "The smell of blood will attract other animals.", "I didn't expect you to be old. Xiao Xiao already knows how to raise a partner before he reaches adulthood. ""It's really good."

Ah Yin wanted to say that it was his brother, not his partner, but he tilted his head and thought for a moment, listening to what Xiao Xian said with his blue eyes. My partner's eyes lit up, and he ran briskly behind the leopard, vigilant and wagging his tail happily.

Two leopards separated a lamb in tribal territory.

Ah Yin quickly ran home with half of the sheep in his mouth. His brother was still waiting for him, but he didn't catch a live lamb today. He would be very angry next time...

Night fell for a long time.

Zhuo Yan closed the cave door, and Ah Yin was not there. He didn't know why he felt a little insecure. He didn't feel this way when he first came here. Then the cave door would be open, and if you have the ability, you can bring in any animal. Eaten on my' impulse and woke up the next day uneventful and a little disappointed.

...

Maybe he really didn't want to stay in this world at that time, it was too shocking, he didn't dare to commit suicide, he was afraid of pain, and he should cherish the life he got after surviving again, so he just wanted to be eaten by animals and it would be over.

It's different now, he has Ah Yin and friends who care about him.

Zhuo Yan couldn't sit still in the cave. From time to time he ran to the entrance of the cave and opened the half door to look outside. When Xiao Xian and others left in the evening, Xiao Xian said that with his second brother watching, he would definitely not be in danger. Brother Zhuo Yan Don't worry.

As a result, after Xiao Xian finished speaking, he scratched his head and said, "My second brother probably won't lead Ah Yin around."

It was obvious that Xiao Xian didn't have much confidence in his second brother.

Zhuo Yan had met Xiao Xian's second brother, and although he didn't talk much about it, when he met a bear that time, and after several fights, he could tell that Xiao Xian's second brother was a young and energetic but intelligent orc, not that kind of orc. The orcs who were indifferent.

... Ah Yin must be fine, but there was some delay.

Zhuo Yan thought about it and waited at the door for a while. Soon, a whine came faintly from the wind. Zhuo Yan stood outside the entrance of the cave, looking at the dark slope, "A Yin?"

"Aww~"

This When Ci Zhuoyan heard it clearly, it was really Ah Yin. He had a peaceful smile on his face. It would be great if he came back. The wailing sound was getting closer and closer. Zhuo Yan also saw Ah Yin's figure with his good eyesight, and there was a sound in his mouth. What else is there in your mouth?

The hens in his chicken coop were still nesting in the fence. When they heard the whine, they fluttered their injured wings and ran straight into the chicken coop.

Ah Yin took the sheep to the entrance of the cave.

"??? Ah Yin, is that a sheep?" Zhuo Yan also saw it, it was a sheep, and couldn't help but be shocked, "Why did you catch the sheep? Did brother Xiao Xian take you there?"

Ah Yin herded the sheep. He went back, whined against his brother, and nodded.

"It's fine. Have you eaten?" Zhuo Yan looked at the half of the sheep and thought that Ah Yin had eaten it. But when he looked carefully, the half of the sheep didn't have bite marks, it looked like it was torn apart. "You guys divided the sheep." ?"

Ah Yin rubbed her head against her brother and nodded, yes, yes.

"Ah Yin learned how to hunt today, he's really good." Zhuo Yan praised Ah Yin without hesitation and touched Ah Yin's head, "Hurry up and eat, eat more."

"Ooooooo~" Brother, did you eat? Brother, eat.

Zhuo Yan: "I've already eaten, but we can eat some more together." The two of them enjoyed their meal.

He began to divide the sheep. This sheep was very tender. The skin was removed first. Even though only half of the skin was left, it was left. After tanning, it could be used as a rag or a seat cushion. The meat was deboned and divided. Ah Yin came over and stretched out his hand. Claws can easily separate flesh and bone.

Zhuo Yan was stunned, then touched A Yin's ears.

"Ah Yin is getting more and more powerful now."

"Ooo~" Ah Yin will take good care of his brother, and his brother will grow taller and stronger.

Zhuo Yan took out the internal organs and put them into a big bucket. This needs to be washed, but the mutton is not washed. It contains coagulated blood. If Zhuo Yan, a modern human, would definitely not be able to eat it, but now he is in the primitive orc world. The sub-orc Zhuo Yan.

There is no salt at home, so it is impossible to eat salt from friends' houses every day. Zhuo Yan is sorry, but several of his friends live at home, and salt is very precious. In order to replenish the salt in the body, he drank the blood of some herbivorous animals - it was even more unbearable for him to drink blood, so the next best thing was to grill meat with blood.

The offal still needs to be washed, especially the sheep intestines. They used to have a strong smell, but now they are different. Now there are garlic and wild onions. Zhuo Yan plans to save the bucket of offal for roasting tomorrow morning, so there is no need to wash it in a hurry.

Zhuo Yan was busy lighting the fire on the stove, and A Yin was not idle either. He followed his brother, holding firewood in his mouth, and handed firewood to his brother. Zhuo Yan told A Yin what he had done today.

"Aman Shitou Xiaoxian helped me set up the stove. It will be more convenient for cooking in the future. There are two stove holes and a chicken coop. Didn't you see it when you came back?"

A Yin shook his ears. Where are the chickens?

Zhuo Yan was so cute by Ah Yin's appearance that he passed by the chicken coop without even noticing. Ah Yin didn't see it, because he only wanted to give the sheep to his brother to eat.

"It's not far below." Zhuo Yan pointed to A Yin, "Put the rooster in the hole first. It seems to have quite a temper. The hen looks a little frightened. Today we are working and let it out for a walk. After a lap, I felt much better in the afternoon. "

The hen couldn't fly far. In the afternoon, it was eating bugs in the grass at the foot of the slope. She might have tried to leave, but there were sub-orcs in the distance by the river below. The hen was trembling with fear in a strange territory. Finally, I wandered around the area and returned to the cave on my own initiative in the evening.

Zhuo Yan: ...very good.

Ah Yin listened to his brother and ran to see the hen. The hen was in a short hole with hay underneath. My brother is very kind to the hen. Don't run away.

The hens were trembling in the hay.

Ah Yin went to look for her brother without even looking back.

That half of the lamb weighed more than thirty kilograms. Zhuo Yan knew A Yin's appetite and had been to the oil board. This one can be boiled in mutton fat tomorrow morning. The rest was fat and thin. More than twenty kilograms of raw meat was given to A Yin first. Zhuo Yan, who was ten kilograms, The rocks are baked on a stone slab.

It's sizzling when roasted with blood, but the aroma soon comes out.

The mutton was very fresh, had no smell, and was tender. Zhuo Yan couldn't help but taste it. At this moment, he half-squinted his eyes and really missed the cumin and chili. It was really delicious. It was better than the mutton bought at tourist attractions before. The skewers are much more delicious.

"I'm going to get the garlic seedlings." Zhuo Yan couldn't help but go to the crooked neck tree and pull out a few garlic seedlings he had just planted the night before. Ah Yin, who was originally squatting to eat meat, immediately got up and followed his brother.

Zhuo Yan took the garlic sprouts and said to Ah Yin: "Add some of this."

He rinsed the garlic sprouts briefly, rolled some garlic sprouts with the mutton and put it in his mouth. Zhuo Yan was speechless because of the fragrant smell. It would be better if there was salt - Set the cumin chili aside.

He also rolled one for Ah Yin. Ah Yin swallowed it in a big gulp and accidentally licked his brother's finger. Zhuo Yan asked: "Is it very fragrant?"

"Ooooooo~" It smells so good. Ah Yin nodded his head.

It's just that one person said mutton rolls with garlic sprouts, and what the other leopard said, only Ah Yin knew clearly.

Accompanied by the starry night sky, he slowly grilled meat, and his mouth was full of oil. After eating, Zhuo Yan simply put away the stove, took A Yin to the river to wash up, and then returned to the cave to sleep.

A Yin was sleeping outside the stone bed. Zhuo Yan subconsciously reached out and touched A Yin's belly. Sure enough, he felt that A Yin's belly was slightly bulging and bulging, and he couldn't help but feel happy.

"You didn't have enough to eat before, but now you're better."

Ah Yin stretched out her paws and imitated her brother's example to touch her brother's belly. Zhuo Yan held out his belly for A Yin to touch, and said happily: "I'm full too!"

During the long winter, the two of them rarely felt full. Most of the 'full' state was actually caused by the fish soup. , instead of at this moment, Zhuo Yan felt happy with his stomach at ease.

Eating is a real pleasure.

"It's itchy." Zhuo Yan hid behind, A Yin's claws were furry, "Go to sleep, go to sleep."

A Yin was also very happy, his brother's belly was round, he had eaten enough today, it's great, he will work hard in the future Hunting and catching a lot of delicious meat for my brother.

At night, the rooster in the cave took a step forward. Before its wings could flap, Ah Yin quickly pounced on the stone bedside. He was so frightened that the rooster's crow would wake his brother from sleeping. Ah Yin subconsciously stretched out his sharp claws, just claws. The moment it landed on the chicken's head, I thought of the lamb.

The rooster smelled the murderous aura and thought it was going to die, but unexpectedly the big furry paws were loosened. It froze on the ground for a long time. When it recovered, it was discovered that it was not dead, but still alive.

Ah Yin stared at the chicken.

The chicken was trembling and frozen on the ground, not daring to move.

Ah Yin then put away her paws, returned to the bed, and jumped onto the bed very quickly and gently. Zhuo Yan was actually woken up by the crow of the rooster, but he knew that Ah Yin went over to look at it and ignored it. At this moment, he asked vaguely: "Are you good?"

"Ouch~" He didn't dare to move anymore. Brother, please go to sleep. Ah Yin stretched out her tongue and gently licked her brother's cheek.

Zhuo Yan wanted to stop licking her because of your age, but he was too sleepy and fell back to sleep.

When he woke up the next day, Zhuo Yan found that the rooster was wilted and seemed to have lost weight. He had only stayed at his house for two days. "Forget it, let you go for a walk. If you are caught by other people, If the orcs or sub-orcs are caught, then you will be lucky."

If they raise him like him, they will definitely kill him with a knife and eat the chicken on the spot.

Zhuo Yan went to the chicken coop to see the hens. Maybe they live separately? The hen was in much better condition this morning and was a little energetic. Zhuo Yan opened the fence door and let the hen out. He pointed to the location down the slope and said, "Old place, find worms for yourself."

The hen flapped its wings, although it couldn't fly. It was high, but after a short jump, it flew to a low altitude less than half a meter before landing, and went down the slope to look for bugs to eat.

Ah Yin took the bucket and fetched water and slowly ran up to find her brother.

"Is it sinking?"

"Ouch~"

It's not sinking.

Zhuo Yan always regarded A Yin as a cub or kitten, but in fact, the bite force of a wild cheetah is over 150 kilograms, let alone a leopard - in the orc world now, the bite force of an orc is I dare not think about it, just a bucket of water.

So Xiao Xian, who hurriedly came to see Brother Zhuo Yan early in the morning, heard this conversation and said, "Brother Zhuo Yan, I can carry a bucket of water easily without sinking. Ah Yin must be even more relaxed. "

You treat Ah Yin like a bastard."

Zhuo Yan subconsciously said: "Ah Yin is not yet an adult." In his mind, when he picked up Ah Yin last winter, he looked so skinny and skinny. He was afraid that Ah Yin might break his bones if he didn't pay attention, and Ah Yin loved her so much. Coquettish and clingy, he sometimes treats Ah Yin as a cat.

Now look at Ah Yin.

It seems like it has grown a lot bigger? Is it fluffy?

Ah Yin rubbed his head against his brother. What his brother said was right, but he could draw water without sinking at all. Zhuo Yan touched Ah Yin's head and said he understood, "I'll leave it to you from now on."

"Ooooo~" Ah Yin wagged his tail, "Okay, okay, okay."

Zhuo Yan: ...I don't blame him for treating Ah Yin as a baby. Ah Yin is really like a cat and a puppy.

How cute.

"Good morning, Xiao Xian, why are you here so early?" Zhuo Yan saw a leopard behind Xiao Xian, it must be Xiao Xian's second brother, and nodded as a greeting.

Xiao Xianbaba said: "My second brother went back last night when it was dark, and he brought half a sheep with him. My second brother said it was Ah Yin who caught it, and he gave him the points. I'm afraid you are worried about Ah Yin, so let's go early today Come here to clarify, and my second brother stopped by to take A Yin out for patrolling."

"Right, second brother?"

Huabao snorted at his younger brother's question. Xiao Xian was accustomed to thinking of Brother Chang and looked at Brother Zhuo Yan. Zhuo Yan looked at A Yin. A Yin rubbed her brother and moaned. Zhuo Yan touched A Yin's head and said, "Go. Just pay attention to safety."

He ate too much last night and he wasn't hungry at all now.

Ah Yin howled and ran to look for the leopards. The two leopards went directly from the slope to patrol the mountain. Xiao Xian saw that the shadows were gone, and then said: "My second brother came to look for Ah Yin early in the morning. I'm sure "I still want to hunt."

"Hunting is good. Don't you like your second brother running around catching things?" Zhuo Yan asked.

Xiao Xian held it in for a while, but it wasn't that he didn't like it, he even liked it very much. The second brother would eat meat when he caught something, but the second brother always liked to run around and wouldn't stay at home and wouldn't listen to his father and mother. He liked it. Go out and play.

He told Brother Zhuo Yan these words.

"Your second brother may have this kind of personality. He likes to run around, and you do too. He often comes out to play with us and work together. It would be boring to hide in a cave every day."

Xiao Xian tilted his head, "Yes. Brother Zhuo Yan, then I might be angry that he always says things that make me angry. "My dear

brother may be a mean talker. Zhuo Yan could tell that Xiao Xian was very close to his second brother. They were fighting and fighting every day, so he couldn't help changing the subject: "I'm going to make mutton fat. I still had some internal organs from yesterday. I'll clean them and bake them together." "Brother Zhuo Yan, the internal organs are so smelly and fishy - "

Xiao Xian thought about how good Zhuo Yan is at cooking, and immediately said, "Okay! I'm here to help.

" "Brother Zhuo Yan, what is mutton oil?"

"It's the lard I used to cook, and the pancakes are delicious. That's right, mutton oil is the oil that is made from mutton. It's more fragrant if you put some in it for cooking pancakes.

" , his eyes lit up and he wanted to learn.

Zhuo Yan and Xiao Xian went to clean their internal organs. When they came back, they met Aman Shitou who came over. The stone brought good news: Sister Qiao and Ada's partner ceremony will be held tomorrow evening.

"What delicious food did Ada catch?" Xiao Xian said happily.

Aman said: "Ada's friend came back and said that Ada was chasing a group of horned deer."

"Then go to Sister Qiao's cave today to install a door for Sister Qiao." Zhuo Yan said. The wooden door has been in his house for a few days, and he has also made some details.

Shitou: "Yes, that's why we came to you."

"Brother Zhuo Yan said that he would boil mutton fat and roast mutton offal in the morning." Xiao Xian hasn't forgotten his food.

But it was still early, Shitou Aman said that he could go over after dinner, so Zhuo Yan invited the two of them to eat barbecue at his house. On the way, Aman was also curious about where the sheep came from. Zhuo Yan didn't need to say anything, Xiao Xian first chirped about yesterday's thing.

"I didn't expect A Yin to be so powerful. It's really great." A Man said after hearing this.

Shitou also nodded.

Aman looked at Zhuo Yan and said, "I've always been afraid that you and A Yin would starve to death as a couple, but it seems that won't happen now. A Yin is still very powerful and can catch sheep. Zhuo Yan, your life will be better in the future. "

..." Zhuo Yan opened his mouth to explain this call but didn't know how to explain it, because it was really, really hard to make it clear that he and A Yin were not - forget it, "Well, the mutton is quite delicious." . "

Shut up! "

Cut the oil board into large pieces and throw them into the stone pot. Add two spoons of water and leave it alone.

Xiao Xian added two sticks of firewood and asked Zhuo Yan how big the fire was. Zhuo Yan took a look and said it was just right. Afterwards, several people gathered around another stove hole to eat roasted offal. Zhuo Yan pulled out a few green onions, washed them and put them on the plate. He couldn't bear to touch the garlic sprouts.

Let the garlic seedlings grow longer and resist eating them!

"The garlic sprouts I brought back are delicious with barbecued meat. I also followed your example and planted Zhuoyan near the entrance of the cave." Aman said first.

Shitou said, "It's delicious." He was a little unhappy, "Zhuo Yan, your stove is very useful, but I can't use it anymore."

"Did your father and mother not allow you to do it?" Zhuo Yan guessed. .

Shitou nodded, "My grandma said it's fine now." In fact, he still disliked Zhuo Yan, saying that he would become stupid if he always liked to play with Zhuo Yan.

These were rumors among the tribe for a long time. Shitou didn't know why his mother still believed them.

Then Shitou said that the wooden barrels and wooden doors made by Zhuo Yan, as well as the fish eaten during the winter snow season, were also the gall discovered by Zhuo Yan. Shitou's mother nodded and said that was not bad. Zhuo Yan may have changed, but you said Forget about the stove, cooking is not that troublesome.

"My grandma doesn't want to waste time cooking food. She likes to mate with my grandpa -"

"Cough cough cough cough." Zhuo Yan was frightened every time he heard such frank topics. For a moment, he had the illusion that he It seems that they are ancient people who were not open-minded, but Shitou Aman and Xiao Xian are used to it, and they are so open about sex life like modern people.

...It is also possible that there are conservative people in modern times, such as him.

Several people looked at Zhuo Yan inexplicably. Aman said: "Zhuo Yan, why do you feel embarrassed every time when it comes to mating? This kind of thing is normal. Don't be shy. How can you give birth to cubs without mating? Don't you know how?" "

Zhuo Yan should not Understand, his mother didn't tell him, right?" Shitou said, with a look of pity on his face, and even went into more detail.

Zhuo Yan covered Shi Shi's mouth, his face turned red after coughing, and said, "I think the night life between elders doesn't need to be talked about everywhere."

Shi Shi took off Zhuo Yan's hand covering his face, and said very He said seriously: "I'm not talking about it everywhere, you are my partners."

"Yes, we are, but -" Zhuo Yan was anxious for a moment, fearing that Shitou would misunderstand but he really didn't want to bring up this topic from time to time. Pretending to be sad, she said: "Ah Yin is not yet an adult, and besides, in Ah Yin's condition, she cannot transform into a human form. We may not be able to have sex in our lives, ah, I mean mating."

Xiao Xian had a smile on his face after hearing this . They are all sad, sad for Brother Zhuo Yan.

"Ah, so that's it. Brother Zhuo Yan is so pitiful."

What's so pitiful about not being able to have sex! Zhuo Yan screamed in his heart, but on the surface he showed sadness, so stop talking about this topic!

Shitou also felt a little guilty. Why didn't he think of this and hit Zhuo Yan's painful spot.

Aman thought about it for a long time and said: "Really, maybe, if you like it, Ah Yin can also take the animal form as an adult, but you will feel uncomfortable, the leopard is very big."

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

"I don't think I can do it." Zhuo Yan's face showed a more sad look, "Do you want my life?"

"It's not me who wants it, it's your A Yin who wants it - forget it, I No more, we won't talk about this anymore," Aman said quickly when he saw Zhuo Yan was so sad.

Seeing that Zhuo Yan was so sad, everyone had guilt on their faces, and they tacitly agreed not to mention it again. However, except for Xiao Xian, the other two adult orcs felt that Zhuo Yan had lost a lot of fun as a demi-orc.

Xiao Xianzheng was attracted by the fragrance. After all, he was not in heat yet and he just listened to these things happily, but the fragrance of the food was real.

"Brother Zhuo Yan, it smells so good!"

Zhuo Yan fried the internal organs until they were tender and tender, and taught Xiao Xian to eat them wrapped in green onion leaves. When Xiao Xian put it in his mouth, he was greeted by the smell of the meat. Although there was no salt, it was still very fragrant. Then there was the pungent onion flavor, which was a bit spicy. He chewed it, and the spicy flavor mixed with the meat flavor -

"It smells so good!"

The sheep intestines were fried to a crispy color - the color of oil was sizzling and browned, and there was no trace of it at all. Not greasy and accompanied by chopped green onion, it has a really rich taste.

There weren't many internal organs, so several of them were half full after eating. The mutton oil beside them was also refined. Zhuo Yan poured the oil into an oil barrel and waited for it to cool down.

Then simply clean up the stove.

Aman Stone had already moved the wooden door out, and the two found that there were some more lines on the wooden door. Although they couldn't understand what they were, they felt very beautiful. They must have been made by Zhuo Yan.

Zhuo Yan packed up and closed the cave door. The four of them carried the wooden door together and walked through the tribe outside. During the process, they met many sub-orcs who looked at the four of them curiously.

Someone greeted Zhuo Yan: "Zhuo Yan, what are you getting?"

"Sister Qiao's wedding gift, the four of us made it, a wooden door." Zhuo Yan said.

Another orc said, "Wooden door? Zhuo Yan, is that the wooden board at the door of your cave?"

"..." Zhuo Yan didn't know how to say it wasn't a wooden door, but what they were holding now looked like a wooden board.

Aman said first, "This is not a wooden board. It can move after being installed."

"Mobile?!" "

Will it move?"

"It can actually move."

"Can Zhuo Yan move when he makes wood?"

Zhuo Yan:? ? ? It's not that the more rumors spread, the more outrageous it becomes.

So the four people delivered the wooden door to Sister Qiao. When they arrived at the entrance of Sister Qiao's new cave, there were already more than ten sub-orcs in the team, and everyone was waiting for the wooden door that could move.

Zhuo Yan: ...
