After listening to Mu Lian's words, Ah Zheng bowed his head apologetically and said, "I'm sorry Mu Lian, the patriarch couldn't leave me when he had something to do a few days ago." ”

Mu Lian sighed and sighed: "Patriarch Patriarch, Patriarch, it seems that Ji Thief is still much more important than me in your heart." ”

Ah: "···"

"By the way, Mulian, guess what I brought you this time. Ah Zai changed the subject.

Mu Lian rolled her eyes: "What else could it be?" Except for the antelope, it is goat's milk at most." ”

Ah Zai couldn't help shaking his head, he turned around and took out about ten catties of mutton from the leather bag he was carrying on the side, and then took out a yellow object that said that it was not round or square.

Seeing this for the first time, Mu Lian couldn't help but be stunned, and subconsciously opened her mouth to ask, "What is this?"

Ah Zai smiled and said: "This is called a copper pot, which was made by the patriarch not long after the engineering department, this is precious, it can be used to stir-fry, and the stir-fried dishes are also very fragrant." Even in the Lihuo tribe, there are dozens of such pots. The patriarch also said that every twenty or thirty days, the clansmen would change their tastes and eat fried meat. ”

Mu Lian looked at Ah Zai in a little surprise: "This thing, is it so precious?"

Ah Zai nodded: "Of course, otherwise why would the patriarch make a rule that everyone should eat fried meat every twenty or thirty days? ”

Ah Zai is telling the truth, after the clansmen have tasted the taste of stir-fried vegetables, they are indeed looking forward to this day, and at the same time, they also do not understand the rules of Ji Thief, why can't such a good thing be eaten every day?

In the end, no one figured it out, so they attributed this matter to the reason why the copper pot was more precious.

However, with the exception of Usma, Snow, Earth, Witch, and the Thief, a few people who knew that copper could cause poisoning, no one knew about the dangers of copper.

Ji Thief didn't tell anyone else, nor did he let Tushan say it to the outside.

The reason for this is simple, because the thief is afraid that everyone will boycott the work of smelting copper coins after learning that copper can cause poisoning.

Although Ji Thief has already thought of ways to reduce copper poisoning, it is better to know as little about this kind of thing as possible.

Ah Zai didn't know why, he secretly took a copper pot to bring to Mu Lian, but it was a mistake, which made Mu Lian suffer a lot, of course, these are all afterwords.

At this time, Mu Lian pouted disdainfully after listening to Ah Zai's words: "Since the food made by this thing is so delicious, why doesn't Ji Thief let everyone eat it every day?" Hmph, he is just a treacherous villain, Ah Zai, you listen to me, leave the Lihuo tribe quickly, otherwise, one day, you will be killed by Ji Thief." ”

Ah Zai's face turned red when he heard this, and he snorted for a while, and finally gritted his teeth and said, "Patriarch, he won't harm me, Mu Lian, I don't allow you to say such things again." ”

Seeing that Ah Zai, who was obedient to him, would get angry as soon as he said bad things about Ji Thief, Mu Lian couldn't help but want to strangle him, and shouted in her heart in annoyance, Mu Lian snorted, and said in her heart that Ah Zai, this bastard is really hateful.

Taking a deep breath, Mu Lian raised a far-fetched smile on her face, and said, "If you don't say it, don't you say it, why are you angry, isn't it for your good?"

Seeing that Mulian took the initiative to soften, Ah Zheng's expression was a little relaxed, nodded, and hummed softly.

Seeing this, Mu Lian couldn't help but scold Ah Zai in her heart for a while.

Although she hated Ah Zai in her heart, Mu Lian still pretended to ask: "By the way, Ah Zai, you said that the food made by this copper pot is very fragrant, do you know how to make it?"

Ah Zai nodded vigorously: "I watched from the side when the patriarch was cooking before, and I learned a little secretly, you wait for a while, I'll go outside and find some wood to come back." ”

"Then be careful. ”

Listening to Mulian's caring words in his ears, Ah Zai couldn't help but be a little distracted, and for a long time, he smiled and hummed.

When Ah Zheng left, Mu Lian picked up the iron pot and looked at it twice, followed by a pout: "What a broken thing." ”

Since the last time she was lucky enough to survive in a large mountain range, Mulian has been disgusted with the thief, and anything related to the thief.

If it weren't for Ah Zai bringing her food, she wouldn't even want to see Ah Zai's face.

After a while, Ah Zai walked back with a pile of wood, and the two of them made a fire in the pit to fry vegetables, but the smoke choked and the two of them coughed.

At the same time, on the north gate of the Lihuo Tribe, a member of the Ministry of Public Security who was in charge of standing guard caught a glimpse of smoke rising in the distance, and couldn't help but be stunned at that time, and pulled his companion next to him and said, "Look at the smoke over there?"

His companion was a little impatient: "Maybe it's a barbecue to eat when Lord Aliang's hunting department is resting, what are you nervous about?" ”

"No, Lord Ah Liang is going to the south today, and Lord Ah Liang never goes out to barbecue and eat. ”

"I said you're just nervous, besides Lord Ah Liang, who else can make a fire outside? Could it be that in addition to our Lihuo tribe, there are also tribes that can make fires in a large mountain range? ”

Despised their companions, and the two of them didn't take it seriously.

However, the appearance of the two of them chatting made Ah Niu see it.

Immediately, Ah Niu walked up to the crossbridge, lowered his eyebrows and asked the two: "Why are you not standing guard well?"

Hearing Ah Niu's voice, the two of them were startled, turned their heads and shook their heads: "No, no." ”

"No?"

With a puzzled voice in his mouth, Ah Niu inadvertently raised his head.

However, when he looked up, he saw smoke rising from the northeast, and he was taken aback: "What's the matter!"

"Damn, who's making a fire outside!"

A clansman lowered his head and said to Ah Niu: "Lord Ah Niu, we think it's Lord Ah Liang, they are tired of hunting, and they are roasting meat outside." ”

"Impossible! Ah Liang has never been like this, besides, even if Ah Liang is making a fire and roasting meat, how can he make such a big smoke?" Ah Niu said in a panic.

"Quick, come with me and see what's going on! ”

As he spoke, Ah Niu hurriedly opened the gate and rushed over with seven or eight clansmen.

Rushing all the way, halfway through, Ah Niu suddenly found that the smoke and dust billowing in the sky had become much less.

At that time, he couldn't help but be stunned, and before he could continue to say anything, he saw a person walking not far ahead.

And looking at the figure, it is somewhat familiar.

Wait, it's a catastrophe!

With a surprised exclamation, Ah Niu ran to him in a few steps, only to see that Ah Zai had almost become a big cat, and his face was full of black and white.

If it weren't for the long-term acquaintance with Ah Zhai, Ah Niu wouldn't have recognized him at all.

Ah Niu stood in place and was stunned, and Ah Zhai was not idle.

He was also taken aback when he saw Ah Niu, and said in his heart, why did Ah Niu come?

You know, Ah Zheng, who had just eaten stir-fried vegetables with Mulian, was happy at this time, although the process was a little embarrassing, but the stir-fry was finally done, and the taste was good.

If it weren't for the fear that he would be suspicious if he left for too long, Ah Zheng would still be able to get tired of Mu Lian for a while.

No, he came back early, what he was afraid of was that people would find out, but he never expected that he would collide with Ah Niu.

"Ah, why are you here?"

Ah Niu couldn't help but ask.

Ah Zai also wondered in his heart, and he was also very entangled in this question: "Let's not talk about my Ah Niu, why are you here too?"

Ah Niu pointed to the distance, that is, the direction where Ah Zai stayed with Mu Lian just now: "I saw a thick smoke rising over there, maybe there was a fire or something, I'll come over and take a look." ”

Looking in the direction of Ah Niu's finger, Ah Zai's eyes instantly widened, and his heart was broken.

When I was picking up firewood just now, I didn't pay attention to taking a lot of wet firewood, and a lot of smoke rose up to choke myself and Mulian to death, not to mention, but I didn't expect it to be seen by Ah Niu, who was far away in the Lihuo tribe.

You know, the difference between the two places is enough to travel more than two days and dials.

Damn, I didn't think that there was nothing to cover the Eastern Plains, and fireworks were extremely easy to see.

It's broken, what should I do now?

When she came back, Mulian hadn't left the pit yet, and if Ah Niu found her, Mulian would definitely not survive!
