Searching for food through the beast world

carved dragon

Hearing that Kun and Ding Xiao went to explore the snow mountain, Aqi's first reaction was that the two were looking for the dragon scale.So with curiosity and anticipation, he found an opportunity to communicate with Brother Kun alone.

Kun will never be stingy with Ah Qi about this matter.But he didn't talk about seeing the remains of the dragon people.And also told Qingfeng Village not to spread the rumors about the remains of the Dragon Clan.Otherwise, once the matter spreads too far, the place will be destroyed if it is not kept together.Whether there is still a dragon clan is the second, maybe it will cut off a lot of clues to find the dragon scales.In case the interest of the whole beast world in finding the dragon race is raised again.Whether you can find it or not can't find it is not a good thing.At least Kun thinks so.

Aceh expected that there were no clues.It would be strange if it were so easy to find.So the two quickly changed the subject.

The biggest gain of this transaction is to get a bag of milk fruit.Ding Xiao also gave Na Yi and Na Bei a dozen milk gels to taste.However, Nayi said that he prefers Xiaoxiao’s panna cotta made with milk fruit and jelly roots.It tastes delicious and soft.

Seeing Bang's "I only have eyes for you" attitude towards Nabe, Ding Xiao complained inwardly while being happy for his friend.In fact, it can be regarded as a long way to go, but this baby kiss is really not worth it.Sure enough, free love is the true meaning.

This time the deal was only for four days.Nayi and their island will also start harvesting farmland.Now every island in the sea with fresh water sources is a precious resource for the Tianyu tribe, because their village was the first to contact the wise man, so the two uninhabited island tribes near their village with fresh water were divided into them.Now they grow a lot of things on those two islands, although it is still not enough for everyone to enjoy.It is also greatly improved.

Before parting, Nayi was reluctant again and again.Fortunately, when he learned that Ding Xiao would take them to Tianhe Village for a few days next spring, he happily returned to the sea.Just before leaving, he hugged Bai Tuan'er for a good rub.It's hard to say that Bai Tuan'er doesn't hate such a "greasy" way of saying goodbye.

On the way back to the village, the two of them acted alone again.This time there was an extra little white group, and it was no longer just looking for food and drink along the way.

The current Bai Tuan'er is much older than when he was brought back to Tianhe Village.Compared with other types of leopards of the same age, it is smaller in size, but very fat.His white hair glowed silver in the sun.The speed of running also began to have a rapid death.It's just that I can't keep running because of my lack of physical strength.However, in order to train Bai Tuan'er's running ability and hunting skills, Kun deliberately slowed down so that Bai Tuan'er could keep up.As for hunting, I started with the smallest dormice and pheasants.

Bai Tuan'er's learning ability is particularly strong.Dormouse can already be caught very easily.The success rate of pheasant capture is currently only half, but it is also a good result.

The only thing that surprised Ding Xiao and Kun was that Bai Tuan only knew to put the prey at their feet when he caught the prey.No interest in any raw food other than fish.It seems that there is no wild animal's enthusiasm for the smell of blood.Although this is a safe and secure phenomenon for them, they both know that it is not a good thing for Bai Tuan'er.But the habit is already like this, and Ding Xiao doesn't plan to release Bai Tuan'er in the future and become their enemy or prey, so it's better to just keep it like this.Bai Tuan'er wouldn't be hungry if he was still there.

Today's lunch is pork rib noodles with charcoal grilled pork leg.Bai Tuan'er proudly gnawed on a large yellow croaker that Ding Xiao had specially caught for him. He liked to chew it dry the most. In one meal, he could chew a whole large yellow croaker weighing four to five catties without even a bone in it. left.

The couple ate one mouthful of noodles and one mouthful of meat, feeling the gentle autumn wind blowing on their faces, it was quite pleasant.

"Kun, this winter, can you get out the jade carving I mentioned earlier?" Since they got the emerald jade that Jing gave them, the next day they went to Muwa to pick up the jade again. place.But it's a pity that the jade is still there, but the jade with such a good quality has not been seen.

Originally, Ding Xiao thought that for such a good thing, it would be fine to offer it properly, and it would be a waste to engrave it.But then I suddenly thought of the keel waist card.Thinking that since the Dragon Clan will use jade as tokens, it means that they like jade very much, or they are really of the same root and race as themselves, and have a national culture of loving jade.If it is possible to carve exquisite decorations that are closer to the shape of dragons, in case the dragons are found in the future, can they communicate better?Or it is possible to simply exchange it for dragon scales.Anyway, in the eyes of other people, it is just a stone, and it is left alone.

"I will definitely do what I promised you. But I'm afraid that I might ruin something you like by just taking it. You can carve it with a large piece of crystal first, and then do it as it is if you think it's good."

While eating, Ding Xiao suddenly had an idea in his heart: "Tell me, will someone from the dragon clan mix with other orcs?"

Kun was puzzled: "What do you mean?"

Ding laughed and said, "That's right, there's everything when you go to the market around the wall. You can also inquire about the news and movements of various tribes. And there are so many people. Every time you go, the people are different. It's all about exchanging things. Those who are not familiar can remember which tribe belongs to which tribe? What if they mix in the crowd to sell what they need, and then leave? No one will find out? "

Kun shook his head: "No, males are very sensitive to the breath of people from different tribes."

Ding Xiao shrugged: "Then when I first appeared, did you know what tribe I was from? You haven't heard of it yet."

Kun was silent for a while: "Are you from the Dragon Clan?"

Ding Xiao spread his hands: "I'm really not sure about this now. Maybe the ancestors of our nation are really dragons. Otherwise, why would we be called the descendants of the dragon. But when we arrived, there were only men. It’s different from women. Maybe it’s time that changes a race. It’s not surprising. It won’t work in 1 years, but it can definitely be done in 100 million or 1000 million years. Or the people of the Dragon Clan can hide their aura. The method? They are the most powerful tribe in the beast world, aren't they?"

This is something that no one has thought of before.If this is really the case... "Then why didn't the Dragon Clan reveal their identity? They didn't show up anyway, so why did they sneak in?"

Ding Xiao swallowed the pork leg. "Hey, I'm just guessing. I think, since they are willing to leave the keel badge, it should mean that they want to protect the wise people, so that those who have contributed to the beast world can live better and be respected .And everyone doesn’t believe that the Dragon Clan will suddenly become extinct, so it’s impossible for them to live without communicating with outsiders, right? Going to the wall should be the easiest choice. Maybe they discovered something and thought Is it a danger to develop too fast? They already know how to use metal to make weapons. People from other tribes can't beat them. I think, maybe the number of dragons has suddenly dropped, or some other reason , that’s why they hid to recuperate. After all, didn’t they want to rule the beast world before. If they get weaker, they will be attacked by all tribes, right? Of course, this is just my wild imagination. I really want to know the answer. I really need to find someone from the Dragon Clan. I'm really curious. Maybe I can know how I got here." Anyway, it can't be more unscientific.

After hearing this, Kun felt that every guess made by Xiaoxiao was quite possible. "Then let's use jade to make some jade pendants for carving dragons. Maybe it's better for people from the Dragon Clan to find us by themselves."

"Aren't you afraid that everyone will know that this is the animal shape of the dragon clan, and because of this, there will be an upsurge in searching for the dragon clan?" In short, Ding Xiao doesn't like this.

Kun shook his head: "Don't be afraid, ask Aqi and the others for help. They say this is a mascot for praying for more children and blessings. Most of the orcs will believe what the Tianyu people say. What's more, the Tianyu people really have a dragon-shaped totem." The custom of begging for children. If the Dragon Clan really mixes with the orcs to buy what they need. We only need to see it once to attract their attention. It doesn’t have to be sold.”

Ding Xiao touched his chin: "It seems that the idea is okay."

After returning to the village, it is a busy autumn harvest.

Without modern tools, sharp animal bones or stone agricultural tools are quite powerful when polished by orcs.Coupled with the invincible labor force of males, harvesting has become a matter of comparing the abilities of each household.What's more, there is still something about the sports meeting.

After all the crops are harvested, the busy year will be over.In recent years, collective hunting in autumn has been reduced by half a month compared to before.Firstly, it would allow the beasts to recuperate better, and secondly, the beastmen had enough to eat and drink, so they would not waste food.

How can these meats, grains and vegetables be better stored for the winter without being monotonous?

In addition to continuing to make air-dried meat and cured bacon, making pickles and sauerkraut.Ding Xiao also told everyone how to make sausages.

But the taste of the sausage varies from person to person.Over the years, Ding Xiao’s barbecue sauce is no longer the only one.Many caring people also use various edible and non-toxic plants to prepare various sauces and condiments.The ability of the masses is really powerful, and there are really many delicious delicacies.Especially the people in their Tianhe Village are most interested in inventing fresh food.Also because of this, their Tianhe Village market is much more prosperous than it was at the beginning. There are really many small stalls selling self-knowledge food. Sometimes even Ding Xiao has to come over to buy something to enjoy.

Sometimes eating delicious food made by others, even if you can make it yourself, is also a special feeling.

This year Ding Xiao plans to do more tricks on meat storage.

He made several kinds of sausages alone.Some are raw and air-dried, some are steamed and then dried, and some are cooked and then smoked.Naturally, there are no less than ten kinds of flavors.As a result, half of the sausages were hung in the yard of their house.This made Bai Tuan'er, who smelled the delicious smell of meat on the top of his head every day, but couldn't get enough of it, very upset.

In addition, the amount of salted meat and salted fish is also spectacular.Because this year he plans to let Kun Duo stay again, so the meat is prepared a lot more.He also caught a lot of chickens, ducks, geese and rabbits to make all kinds of pickled goods.In short, everything is in preparation for carving a dragon.This year's winter was cold earlier than before, even if he didn't carve a dragon, he didn't want his big tiger to go out to be cold all the time.

Today is the last day of collective hunting in the village.In order to reward the hard work of his own black tiger, Ding Xiao specially made two new dishes.Although the way of eating is not fresh, the taste is something that has never been done before.

Just stuff the minced perilla meat stuffing into the processed pork belly, then tie the pork belly tightly with grass tendrils, put it in the pork bone soup, and cook it with five spices.After it is cooked, let it cool and slice it, then add salt and soy sauce to the original soup to enhance the color and seasoning, and add starch to thicken it.Finally, it is a delicacy that is delicious and can drive away the cold when it is poured on the pork belly.

Barbecue is an eternal theme, but today's barbeque is specially made.The best plum blossom pork (upper shoulder of pig) is cut into slices, marinated and stacked on stone slabs.Brush a layer of egg wash on a layer of sliced ​​meat, and spread a layer of meat paste mixed with mushroom powder on top, then spread a layer of meat slices, and then put a layer of meat paste.Then wrap it with soaked lotus leaves and wrap it with yellow mud.Throw it directly into the fire under the grill, and in about ten minutes, the lotus leaf sandwich meat pie can be roasted.This meatloaf not only has the fragrance of lotus leaves, but also the deliciousness of shiitake mushrooms. The meat quality of the plum meat is already good, and it is even more beautiful after being roasted like this.

Ding Xiao is very busy here, racking his brains to figure out how to make the vegetables fresher.I heard the sound of the door outside.It just happened that the lotus leaf sandwich meat pies were all finished and came out.He wiped his hands and hurried out of the room.It turned out that Kun had returned, with a long-haired sheep on his shoulder and two bared beasts in his hands.I used to be in a good mood, but now I am even happier.The wool of this sheep is also very good, long and white, it seems that Kun purposely left no wounds, not even a little blood! "Why did you come back so early today! Is everything over?"

Kun put the sheep on the ground: "Well. From tomorrow onwards, there will be no organization in the village. Everyone can go if they want to." He moved his nose, took Xiaoxiao's hand to his mouth, and put it to his mouth. He sniffed it carefully, and of course kissed him twice. "It smells good."

When the back of his hand itch, Ding Xiao's heart also itch.Recently, I haven't had that or that for six or seven days, bah!What are you thinking! "I've made two new dishes. You're in for a treat tonight!"

Seeing the familiar blush on Xiaoxiao's face, Brother Kun nodded immediately: "Yes, I must have a good appetite tonight!"
