The soil mentioned by the old snake turtle is not the same as the volcanic ash or volcanic mud that Song Wen knows. This kind of soil can only be found in a deep pool on the back mountain of the volcanic island. It becomes very sticky with rain.

But this kind of soil is very fertile, and mixing it with ordinary soil will make the plants grow faster and better, and the fruits will be bigger and the juice will be sweeter.

The old snake turtle once exchanged the wild fruits on its back with the seabirds, and asked them to help fetch the soil from the deep pool. It took ten or 20 years to finally cover the entire island with this soil. .

The effect is naturally visible to the naked eye, just look at the attractive fruits hanging on the plants all over the island.

And with enough nutrition, there is no need to wait for a specific season, as long as the fruits are picked, they can quickly bloom new flowers and bear fruit.

The old snake tortoise stayed near here, not only because of the temperature of the volcanic island, but also because of the deep pool.If there are members of the snake tortoise family passing by here, the old snake tortoise can still tell them what he found, but it is a pity that the old snake tortoise has waited here for dozens of hundreds of years before finally waiting for Song Wen and his party.

This kind of soil doesn't need much, and a fist-sized piece can make the crops grow better in the large vegetable field at the door of Song Wen's wooden house.

But these are all things to do after going to the volcanic island tomorrow, and now Song Wen's thoughts are more on the two big boxes of wild fruits that have just been picked.

In addition to wild fruits, Song Wen also found a lot of seasonings, wild onions, coriander, perilla, etc. Although they were much taller than Song Wen knew, the overall appearance was not much different. It also tastes good when cooking.

The fire in the fire pond has been re-ignited. Xiao Dao has been in a state of excitement all day because of meeting his companions, and he didn't feel sleepy at all. Even though it was getting dark, Xiao Dao was still full of energy.

Even though Song Wen had explained to the old snake turtle that the fire in the firepit would not harm the island, the old snake turtle still didn't have the slightest liking for the thing that almost burned its turtle shell mountain, but it wouldn't be like before That way, without saying anything, he spit out a jet of water and extinguished the fire directly. At most, he could only turn his head away and not look at it. If he didn't look at it, he would not know that these orcs had actually set fire to the turtle shells of their own race.

"You dote on these orcs too much." Even though the old snake tortoise could pretend that he didn't see it, it didn't affect his desire to say a few more words in front of the island, "Even if they helped you remove the vines pot, but you must also understand that fire is not a good thing.”

"Even if it is used to cook food, the fire cannot be lit all the time. What if the fire spreads? What's more, the orcs awakened in the North Sea need to eat cooked food every day? Our snake and turtle clan don't have any." Get used to eating cooked food."

Kojima bent his lips and looked at his compatriots who kept whispering in his ears, probably because he asked Song Wen for the reason. The old snake turtle deliberately lowered his voice, but the size of the snake turtles stood there, even if they Song Wen and the others didn't want to hear it, but they could still hear the old snake turtle's words verbatim.

Song Wen was a little helpless, so he could only speed up the movements in his hands.

A sea fish papaya soup is added with wild ginger slices to remove the fishy smell. The soup is boiled to milky white with a touch of sweetness.The two seabirds were smeared with seasoning, and their stomachs were stuffed with some nuts. They were wrapped in leaves and buried in the soil under the fire to simmer.

Although Song Wen didn't recognize most of the wild fruits he found, they seemed to be able to be used as wild vegetables, but the cooking method still needs to be explored slowly. For today's dinner, Song Wen only made dishes he is familiar with. .

One of the plants that looked like sugarcane caught Song Wen's attention. This plant was as thick as a fist at most, but it could grow very tall. It is very soft and tough, and it is impossible to eat it at first glance. As long as the skin is broken, even if you squeeze it gently with your hands, you can squeeze out a lot of sweet juice.

Song Wen tasted it a bit, and the juice tasted similar to sugar cane, but it was sweeter, mainly because of the stalk meat threads inside, which could be cleaned and used to weave things.Song Wen is still wearing rough tanned animal skin clothes. If they can use this kind of flexible silk thread to weave clothes, it will greatly solve their problem of lack of clothes and cloth.

In order not to damage the silk thread inside, Song Wen used a bone knife to peel off the skin with great difficulty, then squeezed the juice inside into the wooden basin like pinching hemp rope, and then divided them into a bamboo tube for each person.He also chipped some ice cubes from the nearby iceberg and threw a piece of ice into each bamboo tube. It tasted icy and sweet, very refreshing.

Song Wen only chopped one back, which is not even half a mouthful for two snake turtles, so he can only taste it.

The old snake tortoise likes this sugarcane juice very much, but because the stem meat inside is too hard to chew, every time it chews, it feels like it will waste a lot of teeth, and gradually the old snake tortoise doesn't like it.

In addition to the icy sugarcane juice, Song Wen also divided grilled fish, sea birds, and sea fish papaya soup into several wooden basins and served them. After all, the old snake turtle is a guest to them, and most of the food is Obtained from the turtle back island of the old snake turtle, Song Wen planned to entertain the old snake turtle with the first food.

The age of the old snake tortoise is actually not old among the snake tortoises. It once encountered a snake tortoise that lived here before the change of the North Sea. Even the soil on the volcanic island was told by the same clan. .

It's just that I haven't spoken for a long time, and the wrinkles and tone of the old snake tortoise make it look very old. Of course, the age of the snake tortoise is indeed very long for the orcs. .

Smelling the smell of meat, the old snake turtle who was still thinking about it looked sideways. Song Wen lined up the wooden basins on the bank and warmly invited the old snake turtle to have a taste.

Kojima licked the corners of his lips. Although the portion he could eat each time was not much, Kojima knew how good Song Wen's craftsmanship was. Even some raw sea fish, as long as they passed Song Wen's hands, they tasted like They are all very different. Apart from foraging for food occasionally, Xiao Dao looks forward to Song Wen's feeding every day.

"Try it, Song Wen's cooked food tastes very good."

Hearing the strong recommendation from his fellow clan, and sniffing the bursts of fragrance, although the old snake turtle snorted suspiciously, in fact, he was eager to try it in his heart.

It lifted its chin slightly reservedly, "Then let's try it."

As the old snake turtle said, stretched out its long letter, and rolled the plate of papaya sea fish soup in the middle into its mouth with a wooden basin.

The wood that Song Wen used to make the tub looks a bit like birch. The wood has a faint fragrance, which is not unpleasant, but the wood is still hard and wear-resistant.

But Song Wen didn't expect that the old snake turtle would chew up its brains and swallow it together with the wooden basin. By the time he wanted to stop it, it was already too late.

"It doesn't taste very good." The old snake turtle commented while chewing, "This wood smells okay, but it doesn't taste like the wild fruit tree on my back."

However, the old snake tortoise seldom eats the trunk together, only the fresh and tender fruits and leaves, and occasionally some wild flowers in full bloom.But wild flowers are not very hungry, and it would be too wasteful to eat them in large quantities.

"This wooden basin is not for eating." Song Wen reminded with a difficult tone: "It is only for holding food."

The old snake turtle paused, and looked sideways at Xiao Dao, who nodded quickly.

To avoid embarrassment for the old snake turtle, Song Wen quickly winked at Xiao Dao, and Xiao Dao showed the old snake turtle how to eat.

The old snake turtle pursed its lips, and Song Wen hurriedly went to the fire to bring over a pot of sea fish that had just been roasted. This was when he and Yi went to pick wild fruits on Shegui Island, and Ah Man took the dolphins there. Although Ah Man couldn't go into the water after being caught, Song Wen made a few fishing nets out of vines. Although the number was not many, but with the cooperation of Xiao Jing and Xiao Yi, at least their dinner was settled.

Without the wooden basin, the old snake tortoise finally tasted the taste of grilled fish. How should I put it, for the old snake tortoise who has never eaten cooked food, this taste is a bit strange, but it is not unpalatable, but very delicious. Novelty, after eating, the smell of grilled fish still lingers in the mouth, and I want to have another pot.

But the old snake turtle knew that they didn't have many sea fish in their hands, so he smacked his lips and ate one of the roasted seabirds that Song Wen had given him, and then he stopped still.

Because of the addition of a few seasonings, everyone felt that tonight's dinner was a bit different from usual. After eating, Song Wen found out the two watermelons. There shouldn't be watermelons in this temperature and season. This kind of fruit appeared, but it was obvious that Song Wen couldn't use his previous inherent cognition to look at things in this world.

The watermelon is very big, and when cut open, there are red flesh inside. There are not many watermelon seeds. Song Wendu carefully collected them one by one, planning to use these watermelon seeds to grow new melon seedlings.

Most of the watermelons on Shegui Island are old vines. Song Wen can dig up one or two and plant them, but he can't dig them all back. If he wants to plant more watermelons, he can only grow new melon seedlings.

Except for Song Wen and the old snake turtle, it was the first time for others to eat this kind of fruit. Song Wen gave one of them to Xiaodao, and the remaining ones were divided into a large piece. Even Ah Fat eats until his belly is bulging, and he wants to cling to his own piece of watermelon and not let go.

Seeing them eating happily, the old snake tortoise softened the jawline a lot. It looked at Song Wen who had been busy going in and out, "If you like this kind of wild fruit, you can pick all the ripe ones back. Anyway, it’s getting ready for winter, and I’m going to start hibernating, those seabirds don’t have the strength to take away such a big wild fruit, if you don’t pick it, you just let these wild fruits rot in the ground.”

"Can you?" Song Wen asked in surprise.

"of course."

Everyone else stopped when they heard the words, Ah Pang ran to Song Wen's feet, looked up at the big man not far away, and thanked the old snake turtle in a childish voice.

According to the instructions of the old snake turtle, early the next morning, Song Wen took Yi and Ah Man to the volcanic island to find the mud that the old snake turtle said.
