Chapter 64: Interlude
The primitive people were strong and flexible, and the women were also very quick to work, and several girls filled their baskets very quickly, and then helped Ling Fei dig some and put them in her basket, and when everyone had collected the taro, Long Xian commanded the warriors to escort the women and children back to the tribe.
The basket weighed about forty pounds, and if Ling Fei was usually able to lift it even though she was struggling, she would always encounter a hot wound on her arm while holding the basket, which made her face pale in pain.
The attentive Bai Jiao looked at her ugly face and asked with concern: "Ling Fei, can you hold it, if not, put it on top of my basket, I can still carry some." ”
"It's okay, I can do it." Ling Fei pretended to smile at her easily, her basket was already smaller than others, if she asked Bai Jiao to help herself, it would be really unreasonable, and this injury was not a big injury.
When Ling Fei pushed up the grass basket with her legs and wanted to walk forward, she heard a low exclamation in front of her, and then she saw Long Zhan's familiar face, the man was holding a stone knife in his hand, he really looked around, as if he was looking for someone, Ling Fei's eyes lit up, it was really timely, she called out happily: "Long Zhan!" ”
Following the voice, passing through the heads of many women, Long Zhan caught Ling Fei at a glance, and immediately strode straight over, his aura was too strong, and everywhere he went, everyone couldn't help but dodge in advance, and then Ling Fei saw him rushing over like Mani splitting water.
Under everyone's stunned gaze, Ling Fei naturally handed over the basket in his hand to Long Zhan, and Long Zhan, who had always been eager to avoid women, actually helped Ling Fei pick up the heavy object, Ling Fei was a woman, and she was also a slave, Long Zhan's behavior simply stunned everyone.
At first, he disliked Ling Fei's slow hands and feet, but then he slowly got used to helping Ling Fei do that, Long Zhan didn't care about the eyes of others, and walked forward with one arm around the grass basket, Ling Fei said hello to Bai Jiao and the others and naturally followed his footsteps.
After walking a few steps, Long Zhan suddenly stopped, looked Ling Fei up and down on his body, and asked with a frown for a long time, "Are you injured?" ”
"Huh?" Ling Fei subconsciously raised his elbow and shook it, "It's not a big deal, I accidentally fell." ”
After she said this, she felt that the cold on Long Zhan's body seemed to be a little heavier, and she didn't know what kind of temper he had again, so she hurriedly said: "Let's go quickly, I have to help others treat my illness at night, I promised Uncle Long Ming yesterday." ”
Long Zhan had seen the hideous and tragic wounds, but he always felt that the damaged skin on Ling Fei's body was extremely piercing, and he threw down the sentence "Let the dragon formation come out tomorrow" and turned around and continued walking.
"Huh?" Are you deprived of the right to go out? Ling Fei felt that Long Zhan was making a bit of a fuss, but she couldn't add fuel to the fire anymore when she was angry, and she was thinking about how to persuade him to change his mind when she went back.
The two of them were the first to return to the tribe, and when they returned to the tent, Ling Fei found that there were a lot of fresh pieces of meat at the door, it seemed that they had just been cleaned, and the water had not yet flowed clean, Ling Fei asked happily, "Today's prey?" That's a lot. ”
Hearing this, Long Zhan's frost-like face had a tendency to thaw, and he replied briefly: "I met a group of squeaky beasts today, so I gained a little more." ”
Seeing the layer of fat on the meat, Ling Fei was very happy, how much oil could be fried now, when she mentioned oil, she thought of the container containing the oil, and said to Long Zhan excitedly: "When do you have time to go to the back mountain to cut some bamboo poles, you need to use it to put some things, and it will also be used to treat rheumatism." ”
Long Zhan picked up the stone knife that was leaning on the side and walked away very simply.
The sun was sinking in the west, Ling Fei hurried up to light the fire, cut the lean meat into strips and marinated it a little, then hung it up and started to roast, cut the fat and thin into pieces of meat, and fried them on the slate.
The oil squeaked and filled six full bowls, the golden oil was about to overflow the stone pot, and there was still a lot of fat meat left on the ground, not wanting to waste the gourd oil, Ling Fei began to marinate the washed meat.
After the rain, the weather is getting colder and colder, and the snow is getting closer and closer, so from now on, you have to save some meat, otherwise it will be enough to eat only taro for a few months.
As soon as she cut out the meat, two guests came to the house, it was Lilian and Leng Xiang, who were digging taro and called to learn to cook with her, the two little girls were quite polite, went to the tent to say hello to Uncle Longming, and then quickly ran out to find Ling Fei.
At first, the two of them didn't understand why Ling Fei kneaded the meat strips with those viscous liquids, because the liquid smelled obedient and looked disgusting, but after Ling Fei let them taste a piece of freshly grilled meat strips, the two of them were impressed by the deliciousness, and then Ling Fei told them that it was because they had marinated that they would have a taste, and the two of them quickly accepted this fact without even hesitation, and praised Ling Fei for being smart, and rushed to help Ling Fei cut the meat and mix various marinated materials.
Being so unsuspecting and defensive, Ling Fei found that in fact, primitive human nature was really simple, except for some people.
With the help of the two of them, the meat was cut into pieces and cut into strips, because the big stone pot was occupied, Ling Fei used the original stone pot of the Long family to teach the two of them how to make taro stewed meat, because of the black fruit, Ling Fei also deliberately taught more braised pork,
"The meat must be cut into this kind of fat and thin, cut into such a size, put it in the pot and cook for a while, wait for the meat color to change slightly, take it out, and then squeeze out the juice of half a sweet fruit into the pot." Ling Fei explained while teaching that sweet fruit is a fruit with a high sugar content, which is very rare, it was found by Long Zhan in the forest last time, originally this was Longtian's food, and it was temporarily requisitioned by Ling Fei, of course, I heard that it was to make a good meal, and Long Tian agreed very happily.
"When the pot changes color, put the meat pieces, add water and the juice of a black fruit, then put the green onion ginger and herbs, and then start simmering, and when the meat pieces are soft, you can eat."
The two of them watched dizzily as Ling Fei added all kinds of things, feeling that the fragrance emanating from the pot was the most fragrant they had smelled since they were born, and after understanding the process of cooking, the two of them pestered Ling Fei to distinguish the ingredients that were added to the dishes.
After learning that the very choking green onion and ginger and the super unpalatable black fruit were the things that made the meat and vegetables very delicious, the two of them admired Ling Fei to the point that they knew these things, but they never thought that they could put them in the food.
After a long day of fighting, Lilian had already regarded Ling Fei as a friend who had nothing to talk about, and asked with a curious expression in her lower voice: "Ling Fei, Long Zhan is so terrifying, don't you feel scared when you are with him?" Every time I see him coming over with a straight face, I am very scared, scared into a cold sweat, your body can't help his punch, I heard my father say that dragon hunting is powerful, can kill a yellow sheep beast with one punch. ”
Leng Xiang pinched the black fruit and squeezed it, and said: "Long Zhan just looked fierce, although he has a bad attitude towards women, but he has never beaten anyone, you think too much, well, he did move his hand once, that time because Qingle threw himself on him, but he just pushed it." ”
Ling Fei originally wanted to say a few words for his golden thighs, but as soon as he raised his head, he swallowed the words in his mouth, and not far away, Long Zhan, who was carrying a big bundle of bamboo poles, looked over with a dark face, and it was estimated that he heard what he had just said. xh118
