Chapter 290: Survival in Primitive Society (4)

Since Qiao Zhi went out, Le Xiang stayed at the entrance of the cave and looked out, afraid that it would rain again in hail. Not only her, but many other indigenous people are like this.

It didn't take long for other natives to come out one after another and start making breakfast.

Because there was no kitchen, everyone had to make breakfast at the entrance of the cave, and it was a bit of a mess for a while.

"Wait...... Isn't that rain dirty?" Seeing a woman take a clay pot of rainwater and pour it into the stone pot, Le Xiang thought she was going to wash the pot at first, but when she saw that she directly lit the fire, she quickly asked.

In her impression, the rain is the dirtiest, and the dust in the atmosphere is in the rain. Don't look at the early years and TV dramas that said that the rain is the tears of the sky, the cleanest or something, that's a stupid hat at all!

"It's not dirty. The woman laughed and said, "I have never heard of the rain being dirty." ”

Afraid that she wouldn't believe it, he handed her the remaining water in the crockpot, "It's clean, and when it rains on weekdays, we don't have to go to fetch water." ”

It's really good to think about it, but when you think about it, you understand that this is not a heavily polluted earth.

She was not in the mood to eat breakfast, but considering Qiao Liana, she still boiled some millet porridge and roasted a roast duck in the oven.

- Don't look at Qiao Liana's stunning appearance, in fact, she is a meatless and unhappy lord.

Remembering that Qiao Zhi went on an empty stomach, he simply set up a bonfire and started roasting from a suckling pig.

She hasn't cooked for many years, but when it comes to cooking, it's actually not bad compared to Qiao Zhi. After all, she has been responsible for cooking the Yu family's three meals for more than ten years, and cooking skills are not so much practice makes perfect, in fact, it is more like instinct, the seasoning added casually is no more, no less, and the nose knows how cooked the food is when you smell it.

She thought she had a hand, but she didn't.

Qiao Lianana was stunned next to her, these days get along, seeing that Qiao Zhi has arranged everything for Lexiang, she just needs to stretch out her hand, she still thinks that Lexiang is the eldest lady who does not touch the spring water with her fingers.

"Taste it. Le Xiang ripped off a leg of the roasted duck and handed it to Qiao Liana.

As soon as Qiao Liana tasted it, she immediately gave a thumbs up, "Absolutely!"

Lexiang also tasted a wing, and the taste was really good. She just tried it, and raised the duck with the power of nourishing the spirit, who knew that the effect was so good, the roasted duck was fat and fragrant, and it could make people swallow their tongues.

She was speechless, this spiritual power was too easy to use.

Near noon, Qiao Zhi and his party finally returned. They all looked a little embarrassed, not to mention wet, and they were covered with a lot of mud.

Qiao Zhi is okay, he is tall, and his thighs are covered with mud, and those natives look miserable, and their chests are all down.

"There is too much water underneath, more than half a meter, and what is even more troublesome is that the soil on the ground is rotten, and you can sink into half of your body if you step on it. There was no way, we finally found a door panel as a boat, and the speed was faster. Qiao Zhi complained while changing clothes.

He actually wanted to take a shower, but that would obviously not be the case.

"There are many, many prey, but fortunately we went early, otherwise the prey that was killed by the hail would have drifted downstream. ”

"Yes, there are still a lot of injured ones, we don't have time to catch them, fortunately Qiao Zhi followed, otherwise we wouldn't have been able to get that much back. ”

"That is, the injured animals are all ferocious, and we only pick up the seriously injured ones, and we don't provoke the others. We also met a few litters of cubs, and we helped to place them in a safe place, and we don't know if they will survive the rainy season. ”

"That's how it should be, everything is safe now, although the cubs are also a little meaty, but they also have to think about the long-term. ”

When they came out of the cave where the three of them lived, they saw that the natives who had come back had not even changed their clothes, and they were discussing with great interest what happened to them when they went out.

"Qiao Zhi, quickly take out the prey and let everyone deal with it. ”

"Yes, yes, we'll take a meal, go out in the afternoon, and come back with some prey before the hail falls. ”

Seeing Qiao Zhi, some natives urged.

Along the way, they were bent on picking up more prey, but they themselves did not know exactly how much.

So, when several hills of prey appeared in the cave, they all froze.

Qiao Zhi said, "There is still half of it, and there is not enough space to put it." ”

The natives cheered, but Lexiang pulled Qiao Zhi to the side of the campfire in distress, and handed him the sliced suckling pig while letting him roast it.

Qiao Zhi knew that this was his wife's craft after taking the first bite, and his eyes suddenly lit up, and the smile under his eyes was even softer.

Speaking of which, he hadn't eaten the food he wanted to cook for many years, and it would be a lie to say that he didn't want to, but because he knew that she didn't like to do it, he was reluctant to force her.

Over there, the natives are already getting busy. Young adults are responsible for peeling the skin, frail adults and the elderly are responsible for cleaning the internal organs, half-grown children are responsible for sorting the meat, and younger children are responsible for cleaning the pieces.

"Wait, what are you going to do with the meat?" asked Lexiang a little suspiciously.

"How to deal with it?" a woman wondered, "What else can be done, of course, it is made while it is fresh, and you can eat as much as you can, otherwise it will be bad if you leave it alone." ”

Really!

Le Xiang immediately supported his forehead, and hurriedly waved his hand and said, "No, no, no, these meats can be made into bacon and sausages and eaten in winter." ”

"Are you serious?" said Ichly with a look of surprise.

"Of course it's true. After speaking, Le Xiang remembered another thing, and asked with some embarrassment: "Speaking of which, do you have a lot of salt here?"

She didn't even know where the salt in the tribe came from, but she didn't see them lacking it.

"A lot of it. Hearing this, Iheli breathed a sigh of relief and said, "There is a salt lake near the tribe, so we are not short of salt." Every year during the dry season, every household has to dry a lot of salt. ”

Le Xiang also breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good, you need a lot of salt to make salted meat." ”

Hearing this, Ikhli hurriedly ordered his people to bring out all the salt they had brought. Not to mention, it's really a lot, and Ikhli also said that there are still some after running out.

Next, Lexiang began to teach everyone how to marinate meat. She is no stranger to this, every household in Yushui City has to make bacon and sausages during the New Year. The two men of the Yu family are not hands-on, but she gave Jiang Huifang a hand when she was a child, and she is familiar with this matter.

When I heard that it was a way to keep food in the cold winter, all the natives were very interested, and when they wanted to explain, they listened carefully, and they didn't dare to make a sound at all, for fear of missing a word.
