After entering the bird tribe, I want to farm

Bai Wu dug the soil until it was softer than a chocolate cake, and calculated the depth of the potato pit, the density of the potatoes and the height of the soil before planting the potatoes.

After planting, he took a spoon and poured half a spoonful of water into each pit.

Just half a spoonful.

If there is one more drop, there will be nothing, and if there is one drop less, it will not dry.

Seeing his cautious appearance, Kishi muttered beside him, "As for?"

"Very well." Bai Wu stared at the potatoes without raising his head, "If it's true, I'll bake you French fries in the future."

"fries?"

"This is the potato, cut into strips, baked in a bread kiln until a light burnt skin is formed on the outside, and then sprinkled with ingredients - the taste is fragrant and noodle, it is a must. Compared with noodles and Purple red root is much more delicious."

An "Gudu" swallowed his saliva, "How long does it take for these potatoes to grow?"

"Three or four months? I can definitely dig in autumn."

"It will take that long, so wouldn't it be possible to plant only once a year?"

"Not necessarily, it depends on the situation."

The two brothers walked home while talking.

This distance is too close, they are too lazy to transform.

Unexpectedly, before he got home, Bai Wu saw a strange orc wandering around the foot of his house from a distance.

Bai Wu nudged his brother lightly with his elbow, motioning him to look ahead.

Kishi was startled, "Ting?"

"Who?"

"The orcs of our tribe are already warriors. They often hunt with the patriarch and the others. You don't know them."

"Looking for you?"

"Probably. You go back first, and I'll come back later."

Bai Wu didn't know why, but she didn't investigate too much, and just walked away step by step.

When he went up the mountain, he saw his brother standing in front of the orc talking from a distance.

The orc looked very nervous.

No sooner had Bai Wu arrived home than An came back.

Bai Wu was curious, "Brother, what is he looking for from you?"

"Ask me to attend the Bird Festival with him."

Bai Wu remembered that the Bird Festival will be in six days.

Bai Wu wondered, "Isn't the Hundred Birds Festival a festival? How else can I participate?"

"Even if it's a festival, it's also very particular. Who to sing with when singing, who to hold hands when dancing, and who to play with during the three-day Bird Festival, all of which have to be arranged in advance."

"Wait." Hearing this description, Bai Wu suddenly realized, "Does it mean that someone invites you to the Bird Festival, which means that he has a crush on you and wants to be with you?"

Kishi smiled and didn't answer.

Bai Wu recalled, bumped into his brother, lowered his voice to gossip, "Brother, he likes you, how about you, don't you have any orcs you like?"

Kishi said: "We bird orcs have such a long lifespan, so don't worry."

That is no more.

Bai Wu pondered for a moment, "Whoever you like, must you participate in the Bird Festival together?"

"It's usually like this. When you participate in the Bird Festival with the person you like, others will know that you belong, and they won't come to you again."

"So this is actually an announcement?"

"Declaration? That's pretty much what it means."

In the next two days, there were a dozen orcs who came to look for shore.

Kishi didn't agree to any of them.

For the first time, Bai Wu knew that his brother was so popular.

He was proud and shocked.

Bai Wu was pulling weeds in the field that day, and was earnestly pulling up weeds when a shadow suddenly floated over his head.

Without looking up, he knew that it was not Nan Yao, nor anyone in his family.

He looked surprised and looked in the direction of the shadow.

It was a tall and strong orc who came.

Seeing him, the orc smiled, showing his big white teeth, but his movements were inexplicably cautious.

"Luo." Bai Wu hesitantly called out the orc's name according to memory, "Hello."

"Wu." Luo cut to the point, "Have you found a companion for the Bird Festival?"

Bai Wu didn't expect that this young man came to confess his love.

This guy actually has bad thoughts about him!

He took a step back subconsciously, showing a vigilant expression.

Luo was shocked, hurt, and a little bit aggrieved.

Bai Wu saw the psychological activities behind the other party's rich expression, put down his hands embarrassingly, and grabbed the robe with no place to rest.

Bai Wu: "I'm sorry. Well, I have a favorite orc."

Luo stared at him, with disbelief on his face, "Really? I've been watching you for a long time, you are alone and never with other orcs. You, if you don't like me..."

Bai Wu was categorical, "Really!"

After finishing speaking, Bai Wu looked at him apologetically, "I don't need to lie about this kind of thing."

Luo looks like a leaf that has been exposed to the sun, and the whole person is extremely wilted.

Seeing him standing there, Bai Wu didn't have much interest in pulling weeds, so she told him to go back early.

Bai Wu had already taken off, and Luo Xiang shouted behind him as if he had finally come to his senses: "I will not give up. I will wait for you until you have a formal partner!"

Bai Wu flew even faster.

After Luo confessed, the next day, in just one day, four more orcs confessed to Bai Wu.

Bai Wu firmly told them that he had a favorite orc.

On the third day, Bai Wu really didn't want to stay at home, so he went hunting with Nan Yao.

Nan Yao hunted, he collected.

It's mid-spring now, and although the wild vegetables outside are not so fresh and tender, there are more of them. As long as you save more, there is no shortage of vegetables to eat outside.

Bai Wu kept thinking about how to tell Nan Yao about being confessed.

If told, should their feelings be made public?

After the public, what will they face?

Bai Wu's mind was full of miscellaneous thoughts, Nan Yao came back after hitting a deer, seeing that he was absent-minded, he reached out to touch his face, "What's wrong?"

Bai Wu stared at his handsome face, and said honestly, "I'm thinking about something, and I'll tell you in two days."

Nan Yao pinched the back of his neck, "You're hiding a secret from me, and you still say it so confidently?"

Bai Wu glanced at him faintly, thinking that I was almost torn to death.

Nanyao's tone softened, "It's okay if you don't say anything, just think slowly."

"Oh." Bai Wu looked at his back basket, "Have you finished hunting? I haven't finished gathering yet."

Bai Wu was restless today, and his collection efficiency was greatly reduced. After being in the forest for a long time, he only collected half a basket of food.

Nan Yao embraced him, "I'll collect with you, what do you want to collect today?"

"Whatever. Mushrooms, wild vegetables, stems, wild fruits, as long as you can eat it." Baiwu muttered, "There's nothing delicious here anyway."

Nan Yao paused, "Do you want to eat vegetables?"

"What vegetables? Fat grass? I'm tired of eating."

Even if Bai Wu is not a picky eater, if he eats the same vegetable continuously for several months, he will still get very tired, and now he feels a little full when he sees the fat grass.

Nan Yao: "No."

"It's not fat grass, what is it? Bracken? Or bitter vegetable? The wild vegetables are old now, right? It's too bitter to boil."

"neither."

"What is that? In my place, vegetables without leaves or green are not called green vegetables."

"It's a kind of leaf."

"Wait, don't you don't like green vegetables? You want to take me to pick them?"

"Eat once in a while. Let's go and take you there. In the col."

The green vegetables that Nanyao mentioned are far away from where they are currently, and they have to change back into animal form and fly over there.

Seeing his mysterious appearance, Bai Wu became more and more curious.

The two flew for a while before arriving at the place.

The green vegetables that Nanyao mentioned were actually near the hot spring.

They come to the hot springs every night, and they can get there just by taking a detour.

When the two landed on the ground, Bai Wu was amazed, "We passed by here countless times, and I didn't even know there were wild vegetables here."

"These wild vegetables are a bit bitter and not very digestible. Unless there is a shortage of food, or the sub-orcs will not pick them."

"Sounds like something special."

The sun is almost setting.

They walked in the barren mountain, where the place was completely blocked by another mountain, no sunlight could shine through, the mountain was so big that the wind made people feel cold all over.

The palms of the overlapping hands of the two were warm.

This mountain is completely barren and there are no mountain roads.

There are some fallen leaves on the ground, and it is a bit slippery to walk on.

When Bai Wu walked on such a road in the past, he had to be careful, grab the weeds or bushes on both sides of the road, and walk up step by step, so as not to fall.

Now that Nan Yao was pulling him, he put the burden of watching the road on Nan Yao, and for the first time he had the time to look up at the surrounding scenery.

The distance the two need to walk is not long.

After walking for a while, Nan Yao determined his target, and brought Bai Wu to a shrub, "It's the leaves of this shrub."

"this?"

Bai Wu looked at the bushes under his hands, and felt a little familiar.

He didn't care too much.

In fact, many shrubs in the jungle look alike.

Some plants that look similar have very different poisons. It is very dangerous to identify plants only by feeling.

Bai Wu carefully observed the shrubs under his hands, and asked, "Only eat leaves?"

"We used to only eat leaves, but no one has eaten them for many years. I don't know if you like them."

"As long as I can eat it, I like it."

Bai Wu picked up a young leaf, put it under his nose and smelled it.

The leaves have a very fresh smell, which is not bitter.

He stuffed the leaf into his mouth and bit it lightly.

The leaves do have a bit of a bitter taste, but not the poisonous bitterness - the poisonous bitterness can make you a little sick, but this bitterness is refreshing.

Bai Wu always felt that he had tasted this taste somewhere, but couldn't remember it for a while.

Bai Wu picked another leaf and put it under his nose to smell it.

Nan Yao said: "It's getting dark, we picked it back earlier."

"Okay. Shall we have dinner together at night? We haven't eaten together for several days. You can eat less vegetables, and I'll roast venison for you."

They have a bread kiln at home, which is very convenient.

After the venison is marinated, fry it in a stone pot for a while to lock in the juice, and then stuff it into the bread kiln together with Jiji grass, xymphaeum officinalis, garlic, ginger slices, etc., the roasted meat will be delicious It's tender and tastes very similar to steak.

In addition to the venison and the green vegetables in hand, they can also have fried pickled shallots with minced meat, and more chewing fruits.

This is an artifact for dinner.

Just in spring, wild onions are popping up one after another. They can dig a little more recently and pickle another batch.

Bai Wu focused on two tasks, and his movements were quick.

The taste of the leaves in his mouth faded, and Bai Wu subconsciously stuffed another piece into his mouth.

The movement was so familiar that he froze for a moment.

and many more!

Bai Wu seemed to remember what this familiar smell was.

Why is this so much like tea?

Bai Wu paused, put the picked leaves in front of her eyes, and observed again.

Oval.

Mesophyll is thicker.

It tastes bitter, but sweet after bitterness, but not too sweet, what is it if it is not tea?

"We seem to have found something remarkable."

"what?"

"This leaf is a bit like the tea leaves I saw in my previous life."

"you sure?"

"It's really like it. I haven't realized it yet. Now I taste it for a while, and the more I taste it, the more it looks like."

"A lot of people in your previous life liked to eat this?"

"No, no, they all drink water."

Nan Yao frowned slightly, and looked down at the leaves in his hands, as if it was hard to imagine them soaking in water and drinking.

Bai Wu waved his hand, "No. They don't soak fresh leaves, they soak them after frying."

Nan Yao hesitated, "Stir fry the vegetables and soak them in water? Isn't that soup?"

"Not at all."

Bai Wu tried to organize his words, but the more he thought about it, the more he found it difficult to explain the process of making tea.

He simply said, "Let's pick a little more and bring it home. I'll show you tonight."

Nan Yao: "The entire hillside behind is covered, it should be enough."

"It doesn't need that much, maybe I guessed wrong. The tea trees in my previous life grew in a warmer place. If I change to this place—" Bai Wu looked around, "I probably won't grow the tea trees I saw in my previous life. .”

It was getting late, and picking tea leaves was a delicate task. The two of them started working together, but the progress was still very slow.

They finally picked half of the baskets and rushed back before it was completely dark.

When Bai Wu went home, he marinated the venison first, then washed the tea leaves in a large basin, spread them on a dustpan, and put them outside to dry.

After Kishi came back, he walked back and forth, "Do you want to eat this tomorrow? I guess it will be too late tonight."

"Not for cooking."

Kishi breathed a sigh of relief, "I don't cook. This leaf is very unpalatable. It tastes like chewing grass. We don't want to eat it without digesting it."

"My lord priest said the same thing just now."

"Of course. In your words, it is the common perception in this area that this kind of leaves are not good to eat. If you don't cook, what do you pick them for? Do you make medicine? This seems to be able to cure diarrhea. Or do you want to cause it?" What?"

"Fry it later, soak it in water and drink it."

Kishi thought for a while, but couldn't figure out what kind of dark dish this was.

He muttered, "You might as well make it into a dish."

Bai Wu was too busy to touch the ground, "Brother, if you have time, feed Nan Feng and Bai Xue first, and don't let them crawl around here."

Kishi reached out and touched the little wolf's head, "Just let them play here for a while, why chase them away."

The two little wolves seemed to know what they were talking about, wagging their tails and whining softly.

Bai Wu said: "I don't care about eating vegetables with wolf fur, look at you."

Coyotes, like any other furry creature, molt with the seasons.

Now is the peak season for them to moult. Sometimes when Bai Wu opens the water tank, he can see wolf fur floating in the water tank, let alone other places.

Kishi snorted and took the little wolf a little further away to feed him.

The little wolf now eats half raw food and half cooked food every day. There are also many sources of food, including roots, leaves, flowers, fruits, all kinds of bugs, and all kinds of meat. He has almost become an omnivore.

Like their owners, they also dislike green vegetables.

Every time Bai Wu fed them green vegetables, they would scream and crawl into An's arms, only showing their fluffy buttocks, showing great resistance.

Bai Wu is like feeding medicine, for their intestinal health, they have to be stuffed every time.

But after so many confirmations, Bai Wu found that these two little wolves were indeed not aggressive, at least not aggressive towards their family members.

Probably because these two little wolves are at the bottom end of the force value?

The family of four and Nan Yao sat outside in the yard for dinner.

As soon as spring began, Mo moved the table to the yard outside. As long as it didn't rain, everyone would eat in the yard, enjoying the scenery of the mountains and rivers.

It was too late today, and Bai Wu still lit two oil lamps beside him.

Ever since Nanyao and the others ate together, their family has never been short of oil.

Bai Wu used a few broken pottery bowls to make several oil lamps, and gave some of them to the tribe.

The wick of the oil lamp is made of oil-soaked cotton wick, which is not as burn-resistant as the cotton wick that Bai Wu touched in his previous life, but the material is more readily available.

Now several big bird orc tribes have already used oil lamps.

Although everyone is still reluctant to let it go and use it, it is much better than the previous situation.

Other gadgets and utensils from Baiwu's family were also passed on to the tribe, and everyone followed suit.

In just one year, everyone's living standards have improved as if five or ten years had passed.

Chuan ate a mouthful of roasted venison first, then another mouthful of fried pickled onions, and said what everyone wanted to say, "Wu's cooking skills have improved again!"

Bai Wu happily enjoyed the food, "It's not that my skills have improved, it's that our family has more and more seasonings and tools, and I'm getting more and more comfortable cooking."

"No matter what the reason is, delicious food is delicious, everyone should eat more."

The mountain wind was strong at night, after dinner, Bai Wu washed his hands with soap before going to see the tea leaves.

The tea leaves were already dry, and Bai Wu picked it up and found that the tea leaves were even a little wilted.

This batch of tea leaves is too tender, and after a little kneading and blowing, it becomes like this.

Bai Wu didn't dare to delay, set up a stone pot to light a fire, and prepared to stir-fry tea.

Nan Yao helped him light the fire underneath.

Kishi and the others looked at it for a while, not knowing what it was going to do, they yawned uninterestedly and went to sleep.

Bai Wu and Nan Yao are just outside.

Firewood was burning thinly under the stone pot.

Bai Wu poured the tea leaves into the pot, kneaded and stir-fried them directly with clean hands.

The tea leaves were a little hot, but not so hot that Bai Wu couldn't bear it, so he patiently stirred and kneaded the tea.

The tea leaves visibly changed color with the naked eye and slowly dried again.

Sweat broke out on Bai Wu's forehead, and he became more energetic.

Seeing that his hands were burning red, Nan Yao said, "I'm here, and you'll be at the side directing."

"No, it's almost ready. I was burned once, and there's no need for you to be burned once."

"Stand aside, I'll come."

Nan Yao insisted, Bai Wu had no choice but to let him operate.

Bai Wu was half-baked on the fried tea dish, he only knew the general process, and he didn't even know the sequence of the process.

According to his idea, as long as the tea leaves are fried until they can be packed and stored, they are all for home drinking anyway, so there is no need to be too particular.

Stir-frying tea requires patience. You can only stir-fry slowly on low heat. If the fire is high, the tea leaves will be easily burnt. Neither of them is in a hurry.

When the first wave of tea leaves were roasted, Bai Wu put the long and thin tea leaves in front of his eyes for a closer look, and after smelling them, he was sure that they were the tea leaves he had drunk in his previous life.

Although the scent and appearance are slightly different, but probably not wrong.

Nan Yao asked, "Did it succeed?"

"Maybe it worked? I'll boil some hot water, make some tea, and we'll know."

Bai Wu found out the pottery pot used to boil water in their house, lit another fire, and started to boil water.

The water boils quickly.

Bai Wu specially found out two unused bowls, scalded them, put a pinch of tea leaves in each bowl, and poured boiling water.

The tea leaves are picked by them and roasted by themselves. They are very clean and there is no need to wash the tea.

Bai Wu only brewed it once, then passed the tea to Nanyao, "Quick, before the tea soup is thickened, take a sip first."

As he spoke, he breathed out, trying to cool the tea as quickly as possible, and then took a sip carefully.

As soon as the first sip of tea entered his mouth, Bai Wu tasted a sweet and bitter taste, hot and fragrant, and after swallowing, there was a long aftertaste.

Bai Wu's eyes lit up, "It's really tea, we found it right!"

Nan Yao said: "You drink first, I'll taste this pot of tea after I finish frying it."

"After you finish frying and the tea is thickened, it will have two different tastes. You take a step back and drink mine first."

Bai Wu picked up her own tea bowl, changed the direction, and touched Nan Yao's lips, "I've blown it, you should try it."

Nan Yao looked into his eyes, raised his hand to hold the bowl, and took a small sip.

Bai Wu observed his expression, "How is it?"

"It's better than I imagined."

"You really don't like to drink bitter things at all." Bai Wu muttered, "You used to force me to drink bitter medicine."

Nan Yao's eyes flickered, but he didn't answer.

Bai Wu said: "The first tea is so weak, you don't like it, and you probably won't like it when it's strong."

"It's okay, it's quite comfortable to drink."

"Maybe it's just that you don't have the habit of drinking, and you will feel good if you drink it."

Bai Wu didn't really like drinking tea before, but now that she suddenly drinks tea, she kind of misses it.

One sip after another, he drank both bowls of tea.

Nan Yao fried the remaining tea leaves, and Bai Wu spread them out, let them cool down, and stuffed them into a clean clay pot.

Now that tea trees have been found, they can pick them directly from spring to autumn, and there will definitely be no shortage of tea this year.

Bai Wu's preserved tea leaves are not so fine.

When everything was done, Bai Wu put out the fire, moved the stone pot back to the kitchen, looked at the stars in the sky, and found that it was already midnight.

Maybe because of drinking tea today, Bai Wu is not sleepy at all, not only is he not sleepy, but his eyes are bright and his spirit is radiant.

Nan Yao originally wanted him to wash his feet briefly today, but he could tell from his expression that he was not sleepy, so he took him to take a bath in the hot spring.

When he came back, Nan Yao had already started to feel sleepy, while Bai Wu was still very energetic.

Bai Wu felt a little bad, and he suddenly remembered the side effect of tea - insomnia.

He won't have insomnia tonight, right?

When he got home, Bai Wu lay down in the bed, wrapped in a soft animal skin quilt, relaxed, and when he was about to fall asleep, he found that he might not be able to fall asleep.

Not only can't sleep, he is now awake enough to count the calendar.

Baiwu seldom suffers from insomnia.

Fewer insomnia when nothing is on your mind at all.

Yet today he did.

He watched the windows light up little by little, still sleepy as if he had eloped with someone, and never looked for him at all.

So much so that the next morning, he was still not sleepy at all, as if he had slept all night last night.

He opened the door and went out, and when Kishi saw him, he couldn't help calling, "What's wrong with your eyes?"

"What's the matter?"

"Here." Kishi stroked his lower eyelids, "Where did you hit last night? Why is it so dark?"
