Searching for food through the beast world

Portable Dry Food

Five large dough pieces were made into 32 patties of different sizes and shapes.In fact, Ding Xiao didn't make it very round by himself, let alone the craftsmanship of the other three.Anyway, this didn't affect the taste and texture of the beef patties. In the end, Ding Xiaole just let go and let Abba and Teng get it.And he himself, of course, had other things to do.

Put the jar of frozen beef soup at noon in front of Peng Jia and He He.Ding Xiao brought two large wooden spoons and handed them one by one. "Daddy, Uncle, this is the beef soup that I accidentally made at noon, but because I put a kind of plant root, it becomes frozen when it cools down. It tastes very good, and the texture is also very good. Try it .”

When the two were trying to eat beef jelly, Kun went to take the jelly root that he had brought back and put it next to the jar. "It's this thing. Xiaoxiao found it when she was picking big leaves by the river. Xiaoxiao also caught a long-tailed chicken cub at noon, and made a long-tailed chicken with big leaves and mud. It's delicious."

Although it's not that Kun hasn't said such a long word, this kind of proud face is still unique.As Kun's father and uncle, Peng Jia and He certainly felt what it meant for their young warrior, the most promising orc of the winged tiger tribe in the future.Peng Jia didn't have much objection to this.For males, although they hope that their excellent lineage can be passed on to cubs, they care more about their feelings for their partners.So the unwillingness about Liu Dai will not appear in Peng Jia.What's more, Peng Jia thinks that Ding Xiao is a very good kid. Although his body is a bit weak, he is not delicate at all.You can also find so many foods that they knew they could eat, but didn't know how to eat, which they had ignored all the time, and could help them survive the winter hunger and thirst period.

Needless to say, the taste of this beef soup jelly.Even if you don't put anything in the meat of beef, you can stew delicious beef soup with only salt, onion and ginger seasoning.What's more, Ding Xiao also put soy sauce fruit and black tooth fruit in the soup to taste and enhance the color, as well as the slight sweetness of jelly root and the fragrance of aquatic plants.What surprised them most was the taste of this "beef soup".Soft and slippery, it can be chewed obviously, but it has a feeling of melting in the mouth.There is also this kind of jelly root, which looks a little transparent under the sunlight. Although it is not as chewy as meat, its meaty taste is more attractive than the beef itself. "Xiaoxiao, why did you think that this thing can be eaten?" Peng Jia couldn't help asking.

Ding Xiao replied: "I asked Kun, and he said that I would put it in the pot because it was not poisonous. I didn't expect the taste to be so good, but I ate it raw. It's not as sweet as the leaves, but I think it's okay too. They are treated as food like white beans. I just don’t know how long they can be stored. So I brought a few back today to try.”

Peng Jia nodded happily: "If this thing can be stored, our winter will be more secure this year!"

32 beef patties, Ding Xiao had a big appetite today and swallowed one by himself.But after eating this one, he felt like he just wanted to lie flat.There is no way, the stomach is so big, he really can't compete with the food intake of the local aborigines.Kun touched Ding Xiao's bulging stomach (actually his stomach), showed a satisfied look, and continued to eat.

Seeing what you have made is welcomed by everyone, this sense of accomplishment is something that everyone will have.Especially Ding Xiao couldn't help but burst out laughing when he saw Kun's imageless eating appearance. "Slow down, grab something, it's not enough to eat."

Kun turned to look at Ding Xiao, and then replied seriously: "Give me the few pieces you made."

Ding laughed embarrassingly.Everyone else laughed.Only Kun Da Idol continued on the road of choosing round meatloaf.

After eating and drinking, it was already dark.Peng Jia, Kun and Teng did not leave, but entered He Heqiong's room, intending to discuss the planning of Pearl Fruit to be an important food reserve in Tianhe Village.

"Does the pearl fruit always grow in the same place every year?" Ding Xiao asked this first after hearing what Pengjia and Teng meant.

Joan nodded: "Yes. They have always been born in the same place. Although no one eats them, everyone pays more attention to them. After all, this kind of fruit looks very beautiful, and there were females who once stuck it in their hair." Although He thinks it has a lot to do with the good-looking car.

Ding Xiao also blacked out after listening.However, through Abba's words, it should be certain that at least this pearl fruit is also a perennial herb.That is, without destroying the roots, they are made possible by sustainable development. "In this way, we can collect all the things that can be found near our village this year. But if we only pinch off the part where they grow fruit, the leaves and roots below must not be damaged. In this way, they will bear fruit next year."

I agree with this vine: "Xiaoxiao is right. This one must be strictly instructed. Since it is the food given to us by the gods, we must treat them kindly."

Although Ding Xiao doesn't believe in these feudal superstitions, since he has traveled here, he is not qualified to be an atheist.Anyway, if the orcs can use the deterrence of the gods to keep those orcs from destroying the growth of the pearl fruit, then it will be fine.As for planting, he didn't want to tell Peng Jia and Teng yet.It's not selfish, but I'm worried that after talking to them, this matter will become a problem that the village and even the tribe will have to face.He thinks it's better to save some seeds by himself, and then plant a little in his yard next spring, and it won't be too late if it grows.

In addition, Peng Jia and Teng are also very concerned about the jelly root.Vine is very fond of beef soup jelly, especially the taste of this jelly.When Teng tasted it for the first time just now, she and her father showed a particularly joyful expression after being amazed, and Ding Xiao had the idea of ​​making some sweet jelly tomorrow.Of course, the biggest reason why Teng cares so much about this matter is that he hopes that the tribe can eat more and more things, so that the hope of surviving will increase. "Smile, how long will it take you to get rid of it? Can this kind of jelly root be stored?"

Ding Xiao shook his head: "I can't say for sure. But I will save one tomorrow. I will cut the others into slices and dry them in the sun. Maybe they can be stored for a long time after dehydration. Oh, by the way, some of the wild vegetables we eat can also be dried and stored. In the place where I used to live, there were many people who dried all kinds of vegetables. Although those dried vegetables are not as delicious as they were fresh , but it can be stored for a long time, and some can even be stored for several years. When eating, just soak it in water, then stew and fry it. Of course, you can also pickle the wild vegetables with vegetable salt, put them in a jar and cover them , so it can be stored for a long time." After finishing speaking, he frowned.Speaking of these attempts that modern people are familiar with, he really wants to make this thing live better.Although he doesn't tell Pengjia and Teng, he can just make it at home.But in that way, some people may make irresponsible remarks in the future.He thinks it is a very good thing to make more people feel full.It's just that he was a little worried that he would be "clicked" by Pengjia and Teng as a different kind, and he didn't want to sacrifice to the beast god and horse at all.

Surprised by what Ding Xiao knew, Kun once again felt that the partner he had identified was really amazing!Although these things have nothing to do with meat, but through today's meatloaf, he knows that delicious meat is not necessarily the only thing.He wasn't worried that Dad and the priest would do anything to Xiaoxiao, but he knew it was not good to be too dazzling.He doesn't want to admit that he doesn't want more people to covet his partner, but he can't selfishly prevent Xiaoxiao from sharing his life skills.But seeing Ding Xiao's frowning expression, he immediately worried: "Xiaoxiao, don't think too much, it's okay if you can't remember what happened before, your body is important."

Ding Xiao looked up at Xiang Kun, under the candlelight, the worried and distressed expression on that face was very clear.Maybe it was the relationship under the night, Ding Xiao suddenly felt that with this person around, he didn't seem to have to worry about being "clicked".So he smiled and said, "It's okay. Although I've been uncomfortable all the time, it's getting better day by day. I think about the past more and more recently, and sometimes I suddenly remember some when I wake up. That's what I think. I can't even think of why I appeared in Aomori."

Joan touched Ding Xiao's forehead with pity: "If you can't think of it, don't think about it. We just want you to be healthy and happy. Look, aren't you doing well now?"

He quickly echoed: "Yes. Dad will go out and help you find out where there are powerful tribes that we don't know about." Although he was absolutely reluctant to leave his cubs.

Ding Xiao shook his head: "No, Dad, I don't want to go at all. Life here is very good, I like Tianhe Village very much. I don't want to leave Dad and Dad." happy side!

At this time, Kun quickly expressed his opinion: "Yes. I will build a yard behind my second uncle's house next spring."

Ding Xiao couldn't understand what Kun meant at all.But the four adults present understood very well.Especially He, who knew about it a long time ago, and Joan, who knew about it from He.Obviously Teng is very satisfied with Kun's decision, and she believes that it is the blessing of the beast and tiger gods to keep a wise cub like Ding Xiao.But Peng Jia was very comforted that his eldest son was finally getting married!

The attraction of weird topics is always less attractive than eating.When Joan asks what else Flour, her pup, can do.The topic became heated again.

After listening to Ding Xiao's talk about noodles, dumplings, steamed buns, gnocchi, noodle slices, pancakes, scones, etc., which can all be made from flour, everyone was amazed and drooled the most.If it wasn't too late, Joan even wanted to take out the remaining half of the pot of pearl flour to try it out.Of course, Ding Xiao also said that there must be many plants that can be used as staple food like pearl fruit.It's just up to everyone to discover.So Pengjia made a decision. In the future, he will enter the Aomori hunting hunting team, and every time he goes out, he must bring back several kinds of non-poisonous plants.This program starts tomorrow!

I heard that tomorrow Kun will go hunting in Aomori with the big team. Although Ding Xiao has never seen the power of various large beasts, he is still impressed by the appearance of the Corrosion Beast.So the look in Xiang Kun's eyes immediately became a little worried.Kun received the gaze from his partner (who didn't mean it yet...), and immediately raised his hand to touch the top of Xiaoxiao's head: "I'll be fine. I'll bring you a lot of delicious food."

Ding laughed embarrassingly.Why is this so much like coaxing a child!But it is also a pretty good thing to bring back many different plants! "Actually, when you go hunting, you have to find out how troublesome it is to peel and roast meat. In fact, you can use flour to make pancakes without filling, and bring some dried meat that has been baked in advance, and just use it as dry food. "

He immediately became concerned: "What does dry food mean?"

Uh... Ding Xiao organized the vocabulary: "In our place, the food that can be eaten is collectively referred to as grain, and dry food is grain that does not contain a lot of water. Because it is not watery, it can be wrapped with clean leaves and put in the animal that you carry. In the leather pouch. Like our water bladders here."

Everyone immediately understood.Peng Jia nodded: "In the past, when the orcs went out to hunt, they ate the prey they hunted directly. First, they compared hunting skills with each other, and compared whose barbecue skills were better. Second, they also felt that the barbecue they made the night before It will not taste good the next day, and it will be very firewood if you bake it again. But it makes sense for you to say this now, which can save a lot of time, even if it is not used for hunting, it is safe to return to the village as soon as possible. And maybe in the future It feels good to be able to compare whose dry food made by your partner is better. Hahaha."

For Peng Jia's rogue mentality, Teng is completely disdainful.But at this time, He Hekun's attitude was different.Kun immediately lowered his head and said to Ding Xiao: "Xiaoxiao, tomorrow I will take the dry food you prepared to go hunting."

After Ding Xiao heard this declarative sentence, he immediately became embarrassing.Is this self-inflicted?right?It must be!
