Savage Tribe Survival

The silt pool is located in a mountain depression, surrounded by many thorn trees. The salted fruit brought back by Lu Zhan mainly grows in this area. The hole made by the hog deer is still there. After getting it out, the nearby weeds were broken a lot, which looked very obvious.

"Don't get too close, be careful of falling." Heifu uprooted a small sapling that blocked his view, threw it aside, and warned the two behind him.

The mud pool is about half a meter high from the place where they are standing now, and the humidity of the mud beside the pool is higher than other places. It is very slippery to step on, and it is indeed easy for people to fall into it.

Luo Zhen nodded, squatted down at the entrance of the cave and looked in, probably because the surrounding vegetation was too lush, it was hard to see how big the mud pool was, but as far as the eye could see, as long as the mud pool The mud in it is really useful, and it is enough for the group of them to build a house.

I picked up a little bit of mud with a branch, the mud here is much thicker than the mud washed from the horned bamboo, and I touched it with my fingers, and the touch was very delicate, and Luo Zhen felt that the two fingers were about to dry out before they were completely dry. glued together.

Lu Zhan had already prepared a large pile of water and put it aside. Luo Zhen quickly cleaned his fingers. As long as the mud remained moist, it could be easily washed off even without hot water.He knew this from experiments on the mud that he got from the hog deer yesterday, otherwise he would not have touched the mud with his own hands, after all he had seen the stickiness of the mud.

"How is it?" Lu Zhan carefully wiped him clean with the animal skin, making sure that there would be no trace of mud even between the nails. These hands were going to cook him all kinds of delicious food, and he was not willing to let them go. It stuck together somehow.

"It's okay, I have to get some back to see if it can be used."

"Then shall we just put some on a wooden stake and take it back?" Hei Fu asked.

Luo Zhen nodded, "Don't fill it up, just fill it halfway, so as not to splash out the mud on the way back, and get in trouble when it gets on us."

The tool used to hold the mud was the hollowed out big wooden stake used as a bathtub for horn bamboo yesterday. They also made a long wooden spoon overnight, which was more than one meter long, and it was hewn from a complete wooden board.Now, as long as you stand by the mud pool, you can easily scoop the mud inside into the stakes, which is very convenient.

After the mud is installed, put a piece of animal skin on the mouth of the stake, tie it with a rope of animal skin, and put another piece of animal skin on the back when carrying it, so that you don't have to worry about the mud inside splashing on your body.

Taking advantage of the time when the Heifu was filled with mud, Luo Zhen turned around, and her eyes fell on the clusters of salted fruits.

The salted fruit trees are tall and big, and the salted fruits at the waist height show signs of being eaten. The salted fruits here are a little different from the handful Luo Zhen picked in the small forest before. Thin things like hoarfrost covered the surface, and this kind of thing would come off easily with just a light touch.

Luo Zhen looked down at the ground, and there were some black ants swimming around the roots of the salted fruit tree. Once they found this kind of hoarfrost, they would group them up and move them back to the ant nest.

Luo Zhen observed for a while, curiously dipped a little hoarfrost with his fingers and put it in his mouth to taste. It tasted a bit salty, but it was lighter than when he ate the salted fruit directly.

"These salted fruits are not ripe yet, so they don't taste good." Seeing Luo Zhen looking at the salted fruits, Lu Zhan said, then pointed to the salted fruit tree next door, "Only the salted fruits can be picked there."

Luo Zhen looked over and saw that the salted fruit next door was a little bigger than the one in front of him. There was no trace of hoarfrost on the surface of the fruit. Luo Zhen picked one and put it in his mouth. It had the familiar salty taste, and then picked it again. I took a salted fruit that was still covered with hoarfrost, and the trembling caused most of the hoarfrost on the surface of the salted fruit to fall off. Only some remained where my fingers were twisting it. I put it in my mouth and bit the peel with my teeth. , but a little bit bitter.

When Lu Zhan saw Luo Zhen wrinkled his facial features together again, he knew that the other party didn't like this bitter taste very much, so he couldn't help but feel a little funny. He had never seen an ordinary person with a tongue as delicate as Luo Zhen's. In his original tribe, only those who have been pampered and raised are qualified to serve the water god.

"Is this hoarfrost salt crumbs?" Luo Zhen spat out the last bitter salty fruit, and quickly picked another ripe salty fruit to get rid of the taste in his mouth. Among the sweet, sour, bitter and hot, he couldn't stand the bitter taste the most. .

Lu Zhan shrugged his shoulders, saying that he didn't know.He only knows rock salt. Can this kind of thing that grows on the fruit be salt?

There is not much hoarfrost on the immature salted fruit. Even if the hoarfrost from the whole tree is collected together, it is estimated to be about the same size as two salted fruits. It is not cost-effective to use the salted fruit directly, so Luo Zhen didn't bother about Baishuang any more, but when she left, she dug up two seedlings of salted fruit and took them back, planning to plant them next to the grass shed where she lives now. If this kind of salted fruit can be successfully planted, there will be no need for The whole mountain went to find the salted fruit tree.

After Heifu packed the needed mud, the three of them went back to the tribe together.

The blisters on Luo Zhen's feet hadn't healed yet, and he was walking very slowly on the mountain road. This time, Lu Zhan didn't have any big or small bags on him, so he didn't mind letting the other party carry him back.

The people of the Black Panther Tribe can move very quickly. The three of them have already cleared a large area when they went out. The open space is next to the grass shed where they live now. stacked together.

"See if any of these weeds are edible." Axue knew that Luo Zhen could distinguish many plants that they didn't know, so she specially asked people to pile up the weeds that had been cleared up. When Luo Zhen came back to identify them, she still had Pile up some big weeds that I know well separately, which greatly reduces Luo Zhen's effort in searching for weeds.

Luo Zhen glanced at A Xue slightly unexpectedly. He didn't expect to use all these weeds. Probably because he didn't worry about lack of food recently, all his thoughts were temporarily thrown on the house.

Not to mention, although those weeds looked messy, Luo Zhen did find a few edible wild vegetables, but these wild vegetables were slightly different from what he remembered, Luo Zhen was not sure, one of them was because there were only leaves , the root could not be found, so Luo Zhen couldn't tell whether it was narcissus or wild garlic.

"When you see this kind of weed in the future, you'd better uproot it. Its roots can be used for seasoning." Luo Zhen picked out the leaves and told A Xue specifically that if this thing is really Wild garlic is very useful, at least there is no substitute for it when it is injured in the future, and this thing can also act as a disinfectant.

Ashe put away those few leaves, and carefully remembered that she couldn't go out to hunt prey like a warrior, but at least she could learn from Luo Zhen how to find edible things among various seemingly useless plants, In this way, even if there is a lack of prey in the future, there is no need to worry about making the tribe hungry.

Ashe likes this kind of work of finding food very much. As a half-orc, her appetite is larger than that of ordinary people. She has never had a full stomach except during the harvest since she was a child, but since she decided to stay After that, no one would dislike her food intake, Luo Zhen would even give her an extra portion of food on purpose, and Lu Zhan, who was in charge of hunting food, would not have any objections.

Axue likes the current life very much, and wants to help Luo Zhen do more things, not to mention that whether Luo Zhen wants to build a house or find edible plants from these weeds, these are of great benefit to them things.

"What about these?" Ashe asked, pointing to the plants that Luo Zhen put aside on purpose.

Luo Zhen picked up those plants, and one of them looked like Tianqi in the shape of leaves, but it also only had leaves, so he was not sure, and he couldn't tell the common Chinese medicine from the leaves and roots just by smelling it. Not the same.The other two are plants that Luo Zhen has never seen before, but he instinctively feels that these two plants are edible. This feeling is very strange, a bit like an instinctive feeling, at least when he saw these two plants He had never felt this way before.

"Feed these cuckoo birds first to see if there is any problem. If the cuckoo birds are okay, we should be able to eat them."

"Can cuckoo birds tell which plants are edible?" Axue looked at Luo Zhen with admiration. She wondered why Luo Zhen took the trouble to bring two timid and quiet birds. Once, I got a headache from being quarreled by those two birds, but seeing Luo Zhen's good attitude towards the two cuckoo birds, she didn't say to ask Luo Zhen to throw those two birds away. Unexpectedly, the two birds It still has such an effect.

"Cuckoo birds are omnivorous birds. They can eat anything. It's safer for us to try it first. If these plants are poisonous, we can avoid them in advance."

A Xue: "..." Well, she took back what she said earlier that Luo Zhen was kind to those two timid and quiet birds.

After dealing with the weeds, Luo Zhen began to experiment with the effect of the mud. Because the mud was very viscous, Luo Zhen directly called it mud glue.

After the clay dries, it will become an off-white solid that is harder than stone. Because of its delicate texture, the surface of the solid is also very smooth, which is a bit like cement.

Soak the dried mud glue in boiled water for half a day to turn it back into a mud form, or burn it to ashes with high-temperature fire and then heat water to reconcile it can also be used, but the viscosity will be greatly reduced and the color will also change. Turned dirty black.

The original state of mud can be directly diluted with cold water, and the viscosity of the diluted mud will be weakened, but the viscosity is enough for them to build houses, and the diluted mud is not as thick as before, and it is very convenient to use many.Luo Zhen experimented with the water ratio many times, and the final result was that one wooden bowl of clay could add about three bowls of clear water.

After sorting out the various effects of mud glue, the building of the house can be carried out immediately.
