Farming in the beast world starts with the cub learning system

Chapter 187 Extra Large Chestnut

Tongzi felt that he had been fooled and was unwilling to take the initiative to talk to the host for many days. He wanted the host to speak first and take the opportunity to save some face.

However, the tribe first held funerals for the deceased tribesmen and was busy with the important task of collecting grain. Zhu Yuanyuan had no time to spare. She reluctantly finished her daily study tasks every night and then fell asleep, but she had no time to look for small tricks.

The day when the snow season was predicted by the great witch was getting closer and closer. The people in the tribe no longer ran deep into the forest. They only cleaned up wild animals near the tribe. The work was easy. Zhu Yuanyuan, who had tanned several degrees, could finally take a breather.

Well, the weather is getting colder and colder. Let's go to the hot springs tomorrow to relieve our fatigue.

While she was making plans in her mind, her second brother Zhu Yongmeng shamelessly came over and said with a smile, "Sister, your second sister-in-law has been very tired recently and has no appetite. See if there are any appetizing snacks and make some for her to try." taste."

Zhu Yuanyuan shook her head quickly, "No."

"The slower you deny it, the sooner I'll believe it," Zhu Yongmeng protested unhappily.

"Huh," Zhu Yuanyuan jumped a few meters to the side, widening the distance between her and her second brother, expressing her dissatisfaction with her actions.

Zhu Yong was stunned, "What do you mean?"

"It's not interesting," Zhu Yuanyuan curled her lips and said, "Ever since you had a wife, you have never thought of me as your sister. You only think of me after you finish eating dried meat and fruits."

The big ones always squeeze the small ones, why?

"How could that happen?" Zhu Yong explained with a sarcastic smile, "I have been busy in the tribe recently and I don't have much time. When I have free time, I will often take Honghong's family to visit you."

Zhu Yuanyuan looked up and rolled her eyes, "I'm too lazy to cook, so take my sister-in-law home to eat!"

Who wouldn’t be able to tell the second brother’s careful consideration?

"Then what~" Zhu Yong touched the back of his head fiercely, "It's the good brothers and sisters who see through things but don't tell them."

"If you weren't my brother, I wouldn't bother to talk to you," Zhu Yuanyuan sighed helplessly, "I made some dried hawthorn fruits a few days ago. I will give some to my second sister-in-law when I go back."

Zhu Yongmeng smiled and praised, "My sister is so generous."

"Don't do this," Zhu Yuanyuan smirked and moved a few steps away, "Don't affect my work."

"It's almost all cleaned up, there's no need... Wow~" Zhu Yongmeng suddenly screamed, retracted his right foot, and jumped on the spot with his left leg, "It hurts so much, something pricked my foot."

Zhu Yuanyuan looked at the ground. The culprit was a big brown ball covered with spikes. It was almost as big as her fist. It looked familiar. She bent down and pinched the thorns, picked it up and looked at it carefully. "It looks a bit like a chestnut, but chestnuts have So big?"

It's not impossible.

The animals and plants in the orc world have a high chance of mutating. Once mutated, the body will become two or three times larger. Fortunately, the plants will not be aggressive after mutating. The fruits they produce at most will taste bad after being enlarged.

Zhu Yuanyuan liked eating chestnuts in her previous life. Her family was too poor to buy them, so she had to go to the mountains to pick them up.

Egg-sized spiny balls. After peeling, there is a hemispherical or oblate spherical fruit inside. It is crispy and sweet when eaten raw, and pink and waxy when cooked. It tastes great.

I just don’t know how the mutated chestnut tastes.

"Sister, what are you looking at?" Zhu Yong asked curiously after regaining his composure.

Zhu Yuanyuan raised the spiked ball in her hand, "Look at this, have you seen it? Can you eat it?"

"I've seen it before. It's just a big thorn." Zhu Yongmeng frowned so hard that he could kill a fly. "It stings so hard that no one dares to bite someone."

"Well, peel it open and take a look. Maybe you can eat it." Zhu Yuanyuan took off the bamboo basket on her back, took out a stone knife from it, and carefully pried open the shell, revealing four or five semicircular or oblate nuts. Suddenly there were many nuts. A bit of anticipation.

Except for being bigger, both the shell and shape are the same as chestnuts. Maybe you have found a treasure.

<divclass="contentadv">The next thing to verify is whether the nuts are poisonous. As long as they can be eaten, the tribe will have a new food reserve.

"Second brother," Zhu Yuanyuan asked Hanhan who was still muttering, "go and help me catch a rat beast. If you want it alive, I will use it for experiments."

"no problem."

Zhu Yongmeng once saw his sister find new food and feed it to the rat beast. He said that after feeding it for several days, the rat beast must be poisonous if it is dead. If the rat beast is still alive and kicking, it is not poisonous and can be eaten with confidence.

In fact, the same is true for the elders in the tribe when they pick mountain fruits. Birds or animals can eat them if they are picked. However, if they are hanging densely on the branches and no animals care about them, be careful. They either taste very bad or are poisonous.

I understand the logic, but I never thought of catching small animals to test the poison.

The rat beast is small in size, tastes bad, but moves quickly, making it difficult to catch. When there are enough prey, few people will catch it. It took Zhu Yongmeng a lot of effort to catch one, and he stuffed it into his sister like a treasure. Under the nose.

Zhu Yuanyuan took a few steps back and said with a hint of disgust, "It's so ugly. Weave a vine bag to hide it."

"How am I going to make this up when I catch the rat beast?" Zhu Yong asked with a dull expression, "Why don't you take it over first?"

"Uh~ I'll make it up then," Zhu Yuanyuan was absolutely unwilling to touch that gray rat beast.

Zhu Yongmeng nodded with satisfaction, "Okay."

The two reached a consensus, and Zhu Yuanyuan went to pull some thick vines suitable for weaving vine pockets. While working, he asked, "Second brother, do you know where there are big thorns? Why haven't I seen them before?"

If it had grown nearby, she would have seen it long ago, how could she wait until now.

"I know," Zhu Yongmeng has a good memory, "It's a bit far from here. I'll pick some back later."

If they were sure they could eat it, they would have to hurry up and get it back.

"Yeah, pick more," Zhu Yuanyuan said with a smile, "I will make delicious food for you if you can eat it."

It is known that there is a [-]% chance that the large thorn mass is an extra-large chestnut, and there is a high chance that it is not poisonous.

And fried chestnuts are so fragrant that I was reluctant to buy them in my previous life, so I could only try to make them myself, which gave me some experience.

After discovering new food, the tribe will organize people to pick it, and then save it and distribute it to everyone when needed. If it is not used during the snow season, it may not be distributed until spring, and the quantity will not be too much.

There are tens of thousands of people in the tribe, and they can’t enjoy anything they eat.

However, whatever she picked before the results came out belonged to her, so she had to stock up as soon as possible.

"No problem, it's just a matter of putting in more effort," Zhu Yongmeng nodded repeatedly, but suddenly he felt something was wrong, "How do you know it tastes good if you've never eaten it before?"

Zhu Yuanyuan secretly yelled, "Oh no!" Someone accidentally said something stupid, and she had to find a way to get it back.

Got it!

"Although I have never eaten it, it looks very beautiful and must be delicious," Zhu Yuanyuan said hard, "I have made so many delicious dishes and have a lot of experience, so you are right to listen to me."

God of beasts bless you, please don’t overturn your car.

Fortunately, the living environment of the orcs is simple and their thoughts are simple. Brother Zhu was easily convinced, "Hey, then I will pick more."

True to his word, after the day's cleaning work, Zhu Yong grabbed his elder brother and went to pick the big thorn balls with a roll of animal skin bags. He carried back more than 3000 kilograms in two trips and stacked them on the second floor of the red brick house. .

Zhu Yuanyuan was stunned and couldn't help but give a thumbs up to her second brother, "Awesome!"
