lost forest

Regarding the construction of the kang, Elder Bai proposed to renovate the clan's room first.Although it is necessary to find a place to arrange accommodation for these artisans in Tianhe Village, this is also to give a model to the people of Tiger God City.Kun didn't object. Of course, he originally intended to start with his second brother's yard. Of course, his family gets the good things first.This is fine now, the second younger brother follows the whole process, this can be regarded as Elder Bai treating his beloved disciple favorably.

No matter how strong the people in Tianhe Village are, they can't build all the kangs in the village. If Yuying does this in the future, firstly, the credit of Tianhe Village will not be erased, and secondly, they will be the elders in the future A meritorious service, at least Kun felt that Elder Bai's decision was very correct.

The males are free to set up the kang, and Ding Xiao's life in Hushen City can be described as extremely leisurely.Besides fishing, his biggest hobby now is picking plants in the safe area of ​​the main city under the protection of Bai Yue.With Kun's approval, Ding Xiao is willing to hand over his skill of pickling pickles to Bai Yue, a very lovely elder.

In the world of beasts, people's feelings are very direct, especially in front of Ding Xiao, a time traveler, he knows very well that Bai Yue likes himself as a junior.At least that guy Kun is fine, so narrow-minded, he thinks it's completely despised. Of course, he also understands that his black tiger is an excuse to "get benefits" from himself, so he lets him go.Anyway, in someone else's house, this guy didn't dare to come to the real thing.

In fact, the biggest problem with pod plants like croissants is that they have a very strong beany smell. Except for people like Ding Xiao who like this taste, many people will find it very fishy, ​​especially if they have not been cooked. It is easy to eat and have diarrhea.But it is not too difficult to solve this beany smell.For example, stewed pork ribs or pork belly with beans under the pancake, in Ding Xiao’s hometown, the authentic method is to put Northeastern miso, which is also beans, and the fermented miso can not only offset the fishy smell of beans, but also It can enhance the fragrance and taste.Of course, putting star anise, green onion, ginger and pepper can achieve the effect of removing fishy smell.Pork fat can also achieve some effect.In addition, after drying and dehydrating, the beany smell in the water will also disappear a lot.

Ding Xiao told Bai Yue the easiest way.He also taught Bai Yue to string the okonomiyaki and meat strips together, and then brush the spiced roast meat on the fire to roast it.After being cooked, not only the fishy smell of the beans will be reduced a lot, but also have a unique taste of barbecue. With five-spice sauce and pork, the combination of meat and vegetables will definitely not be greasy.The key point is that the taste of the croissant after grilling is beyond Ding Xiao's expectation. The outer skin is crispy, and the inner beans are soft and sweet.It seems impossible not to bring some back to plant.

In the safe zone of Tiger God City, Ding Xiao also found many edible things.In addition to the ordinary fruits and vegetables that they also have in Tianhe Village, it really made him discover something new.

Green garlic is a food that Ding Xiao is very familiar with. Its crunchy taste and spicy taste are very good whether it is stir-fried or mixed.Ding Xiao didn't feel much about this, but the green garlic in this animal world has abnormally fat rhizomes.Originally, when he found green garlic, he wanted to scoop up fried bird eggs to eat, because Bai Yue found a nest of bird eggs on a tree at noon that day.In the end, I couldn't pull it out after pulling it out several times. Finally, I dug it out with a bone knife, only to find that the root under the green garlic was as big as my own two fists!

Curiously, he cut off the root of the green garlic and peeled it off, and found that the "garlic head" inside was not divided into petals. Ding Xiao sniffed it first, and felt that the garlic smell was not too strong, so he took a bite.As a result, it was so hot that he stomped his feet immediately, stuck out his tongue and slapped it with his hands for a long time.

Orcs, especially males, are basically not interested in unfamiliar plants in the ground, so Bai Yue, the root of this green garlic, has never seen it before.Seeing that Ding Xiao had such a virtue after taking a bite, he was actually curious.As a result, after trying to eat it, I couldn't help sticking out my tongue.Bai Yue, who has never enjoyed the excitement of Beast World chili, naturally can't be as calm as He Hekun, but he still likes spicy food very much.

So when Bai Yue asked him if this green garlic root could be made into something delicious, Ding Xiao understood Bai Yue's meaning.Well, I just don't like the spicy taste of garlic.understandable.In fact, Ding Xiao thinks that besides being spicy, the green garlic root has very little garlic smell, which means that it is purely spicy and crisp. It feels really good to leave behind any strange smell.It is a good variety that can be taken home and cultivated. (you really--)

So the two searched carefully in the safe area for a long time, and finally dug enough to make a stew of garlic and braised pork.That night, Kun, Ding Xiao, Yiquan Youfeng and Mrs. Bai, who lived in Baizhang's hometown, cooked up this braised pork with garlic root.

After eating the stewed garlic root, which tastes as soft as white beans, Ding Xiao thinks that this is actually an upgraded version of ordinary garlic.Tomorrow, I will try to make garlic white meat, and I can also try to make fried garlic slices. This one is so big, it must be very good.Thinking of the taste of crispy garlic, he quickly slid two pieces of meat into his mouth.

The days of eating, drinking and working are very pleasant, but the most important thing for Kun and Ding Xiao to come to Hushen City is the dragon bone waist card.

Elder Bai paid more attention to this matter. After several discussions with the patriarch and chief priest, he finally decided to use only two questions to test Kun and Ding Xiao.

For the orcs, the greatest wisdom is how to survive in the harsh natural environment. Ding Xiao originally thought that the patriarch and chief priest would give him and Kun a bunch of intellectual quizzes.As a result, the first trial task sent out was to let them go to Lost Forest to catch a bean monkey within five days.If you come back, give a second trial question.

Ding Xiao didn't know anything about the lost Lindou monkey, so he looked at Kun with a confused face.Although Kun was unhappy that Xiaoxiao had to go into the woods with him to accept the trial, but the topic had already been revealed, and he had no room to bargain at all.

The chief priest still took good care of them, and handed over a large bag of various medicines to Ding Xiao that night.And remind me, when you see fog in the lost forest, you must take the medicine powder.

Although he knew that the chief priest just didn't want himself and Kun to be in great danger, this feeling of concern could not be fooled.Ding Xiao is very happy that the tribesmen he met are so kind and upright.Even though he knew that Lost Forest was a relatively dangerous valley, he didn't show much worry.

It took Kun two days to prepare the things that needed to be prepared.He didn't bring any pots and pans, and he didn't even bring a tent, just an animal skin blanket, and a lot of dried meat and bread.

The noodles were prepared by Bai Yue, and the jerky was exchanged by Kun for fresh meat at the market.The purpose of his doing this is to minimize the hunting time and enter the Lost Forest with a smile, which is different from the two people who went on a mountain tour before.

The Lost Forest is in a valley about 200 miles away from Tiger God City.It belongs to the territory of the Yihu tribe, but it is not in the safe zone of any village.

In fact, the area of ​​Lost Forest is not large, it is just a small valley forest in Aomori.But it is a place where the Winged Tigers seldom set foot. It is not because there are dangerous beasts inside, but because there is a mist in the Lost Forest that they don't understand, and the sun cannot be seen inside, so it is difficult to get there through the sun. To determine the direction, the surroundings look similar, and those who have been there have lost their way in it.

As for what dangers or other things are there, no one knows. A strange area without too many prey is not a place that orcs are keen on.Kun's understanding of Lost Forest was limited, which meant that they could only grope their way into the valley this time.Fortunately, Kun, a small animal like the bean monkey, has seen it a few times, but when he thinks that it is as big as his own palm, he feels a big head.

The bean monkey is a kind of monkey, the size of which is about the palm of an adult male.It should be said that it is the smallest monkey in the animal world, and almost any larger animal can easily kill them.It's just that this kind of little monkey is extremely fast. It is really difficult for hunters on land to catch them except for some birds in the sky.In addition, because this kind of monkey is too small, no matter how much it eats, it will be skinny, so it is completely out of the diet of the orcs, and naturally no orcs will go back to capture them.Over time, the bean monkeys are not afraid of male orcs, so there is no sense of deterrence.

Therefore, it is destined that no matter how powerful a male is, with such a huge body, it will be very hard to pounce on a monkey that is fast enough to slap him.But forget it, with Xiaoxiao's slingshot, maybe this time it will be much easier.

Before leaving, Ding Xiao scooped up nothing except his "weapon" and the medicine given by the priest.When the two left Tiger God City, Elder Bai and Elder Shi personally escorted them.But it only sent them to the edge of the Lost Forest, that is, the edge of the gap between the two mountains.

Elder Bai patted Kun on the shoulder after transforming: "Protect him well, Xiaoxiao, he will be the delicious hope of all our clansmen in the future!"

Brother Kun was expressionless: "What is the content of the second trial?"

Elder Bai touched his nose: "Maybe it's not necessarily just asking you to roast a piece of meat."

The corner of Ding Xiao's mouth twitched. He absolutely did not believe that the second question would be such a simple thing. "Elder Bai, what if we take it seriously when you say that?"

Bai Lele: "I believe in Yikun's ability, it won't be a problem to get out of the Lost Forest in five days. As for the bean monkeys, they are not very aggressive."

But it's not easy to catch!This is the subtext of Kun's inner roar.

The wind at the crevice of the mountain was particularly strong, Kun almost took Xiaoxiao into his arms before they walked in.

Avoiding the strong wind at the entrance, entering inside has a feeling of another world.Originally, there were very few peach blossoms in June’s premise, but after they went in, they found that as far as their eyes could see, there were only peach trees, and a small half of them were full of peach blossoms.Red ones, pink ones, white ones, yellow ones, and a few phoenix ones.This made Ding Xiao's originally uneasy mood suddenly calm down. "Kun, it's very beautiful here! It's almost the same as the peach forest near our Tianhe Village. But it's really full of peach trees here."

Kun took Xiaoxiao's hand, and while carefully paying attention to the surrounding situation, he said: "No one comes to the Lost Forest to hunt, and there are no large beasts in it. But there are still snakes and poisonous insects, watch your feet."

Ding Xiao patted the snake repelling medicine bag hanging on his waist: "I promise I will never leave this thing. Kun, since you have never been here, how do you find the bean monkey? What if there is no bean monkey here?"

Kun smiled: "No. There are many bean monkeys here, but I don't know where they are hiding. They are not afraid of males, and they are very fast. They are small and hard to catch. They are only the size of a palm, and they run very fast. If it starts to run, I might not be able to catch it.” The key is that he won’t do the thing of leaving his partner in place to chase a monkey by himself. "Give me your slingshot, it will be useful."

Ding Xiao is very thankful that he made a slingshot before. According to Kun, if the capture is not enough, he can only rely on "high-tech" means.

The daytime in the Lost Woods is not only sunny, but also peaceful.Except that you can't see the sun, everything is no different from the safe area of ​​the village.According to Mr. Wen's teaching and Kun's explanation, Ding Xiao is convinced that there are really no large beasts in this valley, and even dangerous things like wolves do not exist.

Ding Xiao hunted two pheasants with a hunting fork, and also forked a black-necked snake trying to prey on bird eggs on the trunk of a tree.In addition to the harvest from the prey, he also found food in the woods that had never been found outside - white radish.

Holding a big white radish that is as long as his forearm, Ding Xiao is so beautiful in his heart. "Kun, do you know, I really like this kind of stewed beef or mutton with white radish. In fact, it is very charming to have mutton stewed with radish. It's a pity that we didn't bring a pot." Although beef and mutton jerky have .Kun glanced at the mountain wall not far away, and made up his mind: "It will be made of stone, it will be very fast."

Ding Xiao shook his head: "Pull it down, it's better to hurry up and catch the bean monkey."

"No, I always have to eat and sleep. It's not safe in the woods at night, first look for caves. This valley is not big, so we can fix a place to rest." Anyway, the bean monkey was really scratching his head.

For lunch, I simply ate two pieces of jerky in the woods and drank clear water from the stream.Ding Xiao has never experienced the days of eating dried meat and drinking cold water like this.In the past, no matter how far away the door was, there was serious cooking and cooking, so unexpectedly, it really felt like a wild adventure.But after thinking about it, that's what happened.In the future, I and Kun will travel to the world of beasts, and there will only be a lot of days like this. It seems that I really have to study some foods that are easy to make without hurting the stomach and wounds.

Dinner is radish and beef jerky stewed in a large stone pot made by Kungo.It is said that the jerky is not as hard as imagined, otherwise it will not be able to bite at noon.These are all salted and smoked over charcoal fire.To be more precise, these are actually smoked meats, and the dehydrated weight is only 30.00%, but they can be stored in such weather for at least ten days.It's just a bit too salty.Ding Xiao did not drink less water at noon.

So Ding Xiao didn't add salt when the stew was dry at night.Xiao Xiao only put one and a half of the two diced white radishes, and ate the remaining half as fruit after washing.

It has to be said that one side of water and soil not only supports one side of people, but also a necessary condition for raising special products.The white radish here tastes extremely sweet when eaten raw. Although the radish skin and the part close to the radish skin have a spicy taste, it does not prick the tongue.That's just the unique taste of radish.For someone like Ding Xiao who hasn't seen white radish for a long time, this kind of spiciness not only doesn't make him hate it, but also makes him feel very kind. "When I was young, my father would buy a lot of white radishes in autumn and make them into salted radishes. When my father cut the radishes, I would ask for the cores in the middle. There are sweet and spicy ones. It’s so delicious, I just feel that it’s really good to be able to pick a piece into your mouth.”

He took a bite of a raw radish with a smiling hand. To Kun, it was not a great delicacy, nor did it intoxicate him, but he was infected by the nostalgia on his partner's face. "Let's take it back and plant it."

Ding Xiao sighed: "I think it's weird to grow such a big radish at this time of year. Let's find a smaller one after you catch the bean monkey. Then find a place outside and bury it, and take it with you when you leave." Walk."

Kun smiled: "My Xiaoxiao finally has more eyes."

Smiling and staring: "Hey! Are you saying that I was short-hearted before?!!"
