A lot of prey was hunted, and if all of them could be brought back to the village, it would be enough for each family to eat for a month.

But in reality, a quarter of these prey on the ground can be brought back at most.

Three-quarters of the other three, a small part will be consumed on the road, and the majority will be abandoned on the roadside...... All things considered, it's about half a waste.

The main reason is that the preservative technology is not up to standard, and the shelf life of fresh meat is difficult to exceed ten days by simply roasting the meat on the fire for a few times.

In addition, there is a shortage of salt in this world, and it is impossible to have the luxury of using salt for embalming, and there is no such thing as preservatives, and the loss of prey due to decay is almost unavoidable.

According to Zhou Ming, the methods of food preservative mainly include freezing, pickling, and vacuum packaging after high temperature sterilization, but in this era, there is no way to achieve these preservative technologies.

However, Zhou Ming thought of a good way to increase the edible life of these meats to more than 30 days.

High-temperature air-drying and smoking method.

You don't need to use salt, just set up a fully sealed stove and hang the cut pieces of meat in it.

The principle is to use high temperature to inactivate all the microorganisms in the meat pieces, the smoke forms an isolation and protective layer on the surface, and also removes a large amount of water in the meat pieces, which is light and easy to carry, and retains most of the nutrients.

It can be said that this is the top prey preservation method at this stage.

It's just that the stove was a little troublesome, and it took two more days to process all the pieces of meat before returning to the village.

On the way back, the burden was relaxed and laughter was heard.

Zhou Ming became the center of everyone's discussion.

"Zhang Shanhe, why didn't you see you so clever and smart before?"

"He's a great farmer, he's so good at hunting, and he's so good at making delicious food...... Zhang Shanhe, were you possessed by that immortal?"

"Could it be...... Was it the beating you received that day, and the Lin family beat you smartly?"

"It must be, when I was passing by, your kid looked like he was going to die, but instead of dying, he seemed to have changed a person, and the previous Zhang Shanhe was not like this at all. ”

Someone came up to Zhou Ming and asked him jokingly: "Zhang Shanhe, do you still miss Tian Nier?"

Zhou Ming shook his head lightly: "Tian Nier...... I don't know her. "But a beautiful face appeared in my mind, which was the feedback of the original memory.

"Did you really forget her? Zhang Shanhe, didn't you like her the most before? For her, you didn't even want your life. The man didn't believe him, so he pulled him and kept asking.

"If you don't shut up, you won't have your share of the barbecue. ”

As soon as these words came out, the man immediately shut up.

"Hey! ”

"Show us what you've learned, is there anything we want?"

A heavy voice came from the dense forest on the side, but it was a sturdy man in a leopard print leather suit, standing on a bulge in the ground, and said to the people on this side.

Behind the sturdy man, there were also more than a dozen men dressed as hunters, all of them were sturdy men, and on the shoulders of some people, they were also carrying the corpse of a giant beast with a head weight of more than a thousand catties, not to mention their faces, and the knotted muscles on their arms were like basins.

As soon as this group of people saw the hunting team on Zhou Ming's side, they stopped, with disdain on their faces, and they wanted to check the harvest here

"Lin Family Hunting Team ......"

Through a few familiar faces, Zhou Ming knew who they were.

Hearing their arrogant and unreasonable words again, Zhou Ming frowned, and asked Zhang Jindao, the hunter beside him, in a low voice: "This mountain forest is not their Lin family's, why should they check our harvest?"

"Shhhhh

Zhang Jin made a silent gesture, pulled him over and whispered in his ear: "This is the old rule, no matter what you hit, as long as you meet it in the mountains, the Lin family will come over to take a look, and if there is anything good, they will take it directly." ”

"You let them take it?"

"What else can I do if I don't let it, the Lin family will practice the exercises, and their fists are bigger than ours. Zhang Jin shook his head, looking helpless.

The Lin family is the head snake of Limburg Village, belonging to the existence of the overlord, they not only live in the tall village of Muzha, but also have a special Lin family hunting team, well-equipped, elite personnel, and act alone, do not have any cooperation and contact with the hunting team here.

Even if there is a relationship, it is to see if there is anything they need in the harvest here...... For example, some precious and rare furs, or herbs with excellent medicinal properties.

The Lin family hunter walked over and began rummaging through the contents of the improvised trailer.

"Jerky, so much jerky, all useless jerky!"

After turning over several trailers in a row, I found a sack of herbs, opened the bag, and grabbed these herbs one by one, "Glycoweac, Golden Dragon Grass, Purple Chehe, Huangjing, Shou Wu...... Garbage, how is it all garbage?"

The herbs in the bag were almost finished, and when he took out a piece of herbs from the bottom of the bag that looked like red jade and shaped like ginseng, the man smiled coldly: "You cheap blanks, good things are always hidden at the end...... We want this red ginseng from our Lin family, you can go to the Lin family to ask for something when you go back to the village, we won't take it for nothing. ”

After speaking, he took the red ginseng and left, muttering in his mouth: "This red ginseng is more than 100 years old, and it is of high quality, and if you take it to the city and sell it, you can sell it for at least 10 spirit coins." ”

These words clearly reached Zhou Ming's ears, and he asked Zhang Jin, who was trembling with anger, next to him: "Zhang Jin, you dug up that good ginseng and it was taken away, and he asked you to go to the Lin family to make compensation." ”

"Fucking shit compensation!"

Zhang Jin burst into a foul mouth: "Just take some garbage and send you away, who wants their compensation?"

He roared, "The Lin family, all fucking bastards!"

The others were also gloomy, remembering a similar experience that had happened to them.

You must know that these hunters go into the mountains not only to hunt and solve the problem of food and clothing.

I have to find a way to earn some money from the mountains to supplement my family.

Some rare and precious herbs have become the main source of income.

On the one hand, they will send personnel to collect these herbs from door to door at a certain price; on the other hand, if they encounter them in the mountains, the Lin family will come over to inspect them, take the high-value herbs directly, and "buy" them in advance.

These ordinary hunters dare to be angry but dare not speak.

It's not that they didn't plant, but that they, ordinary hunters, were not the opponents of the Lin family's hunters at all, and the Lin family's men, who had been cultivating since childhood, could beat ten ordinary hunters by pulling out one casually.

Resistance is basically equivalent to death.

In Limburg Village, the Lin family has done countless things such as bullying men and women, and it is not a matter of killing someone, but he was bullied by the Lin family, so he could only knock out his teeth and swallow it in his stomach.

The source of all this is that the Lin family got a book, which is said to be a "cultivation secret book" passed on to them by a person from the rivers and lakes in order to repay the grace of saving their lives...... This cultivation cheats book is not only easy to get started, but also has a very good effect when practicing to a high depth.

Zhou Ming asked Uncle Xia, "Uncle Xia, the Lin family has exercises to practice, why don't you practice them? If you also practice the exercises, won't you be bullied by the Lin family?"

Uncle Xia smiled bitterly: "If we had exercises, would we not practice them?" The problem is that we don't. ”

"Then go and learn from the Lin family. ”

"There are a few people who have tried like that, and after being discovered by the Lin family, they were all killed by the Lin family in the end, and outsiders don't want to learn. ”

Uncle Xia continued: "Moreover, even if outsiders peek at the side, they can't see any fame, that set of exercises, not only is it as simple as fists and feet, but also equipped with a set of prescriptions for boiling strength, do you see those beasts they catch? We can't catch these beasts, some of them, even foreign beasts, the men of their Lin family, they grew up eating these beast meat, I heard that they will often take medicinal baths, facing the men of the Lin family, not to mention those adults, it is a 10-year-old child, and we are not opponents......"

In the end, Uncle Xia also advised him: "Shanhe, no matter how much you hate the Lin family in your heart, the Lin family, try not to provoke if you can, we are just ordinary people, we can't afford to provoke." ”

Zhou Ming's eyes flashed, and he nodded slightly.

Then he asked a few questions about the system in his mind, about the set of exercises in the hands of the Lin family.

The system said disdainfully: "It's just a set of ordinary Jianghu exercises, and the strength of ten masters is the limit, not to mention that in the future, it is not the host's opponent now." ”

There are two kinds of cultivation exercises in this world, one is the "Jianghu Exercises" and the other is the "Immortal Cultivation Exercises". Jianghu Gong is the "qi" inside the human body, which is called refining and refining qi, which is easy to get started and easy to achieve quickly.

The practice of cultivating immortals is the "Heaven and Earth Aura", which is essentially different from "refining and refining the Qi", while the "Heaven and Earth Aura" is infinite, and the human body is limited in essence...... That path is brighter, it goes without saying.

But for mortals like Uncle Xia, not to mention the immortal cultivation exercises, they are ordinary Jianghu exercises, and they don't have the opportunity to contact and possess them, let alone get started and learn.

"System, do you have any more advanced Jianghu exercises here, if you have one, hurry up and give me a few sets, I can spend some achievements to sell." ”

"No, the system doesn't collect valuable garbage. ”

"Is there an immortal cultivation method that can be used by ordinary people to cultivate? It doesn't matter if it's garbage. ”

"No, if you can't pass the two levels of 'perception' and 'foundation building', no one can practice the immortal cultivation method. ”

"I'll go, system, my plan needs a group of ordinary people with good strength to assist in the implementation, if that's the case, any person in the rivers and lakes can ruin my hard work! The force I created must have a certain ability to protect itself, why didn't you take this issue into account?" Zhou Ming complained a little.

"Considering that it has also changed from an ant to a grasshopper, how much has it improved...... However, if you really want to improve the self-protection strength of ordinary people, the system can simulate a set of exercises for you, and there is also a high-level health prescription, not to mention the obvious effect, the side effects are also very small, and the host can use it himself. ”

"That's great! System, give me all the exercises and prescriptions!" Zhou Ming said excitedly.

"Well, 5 billion achievement points, that's a necessary expense. The system lion opened his mouth.

"Alright, send it over!"

Zhou Ming shook his head, buying system goods in the dungeon is the same as buying things in the train station, you can only be slaughtered non-stop!
