Chapter 34: The Fox Clan (2)

In the morning, Gu Xi ate a roasted taro, the size of the taro is big enough, eating one is enough to be full, because of the discovery of the taro, Gu Xi's enthusiasm for finding ingredients rose again, today he plans to go to the river to get some taro back, stew with meat, and the people of the fox tribe have planned to form a team to dig, there are many lakes around their tribe, taro grows in patches, there are really too many to eat.

Today, Gu Xi and Huo Bai went out hunting together, although the fox clan had enough food to entertain them, but the people of the beast clan were still used to getting food with their own hands, the night before he discussed with Huo Bai the idea of giving up this trip, because it was delayed for a few days, even if there was still time, he couldn't go too far, considering the coming cold winter, although he had made a lot of preparations this time, Gu Xi's heart was still a little unsteady, and after thinking about it, he decided to go back first and make adequate preparations to meet the cold winter, In the end, they decided to wait for Tong Xiu and Tang Ning's ceremony to end and return to the Tiger Clan.

The father and son of the Tong family need to prepare the ingredients for everyone to entertain during the ceremony, and today they happened to set off hunting with the two, while Tang Ning stayed in the tribe and beautifully arranged his new house, his brother Tang Ran seized every minute to get along with him, and his younger brother was going to the Tiger Clan, and he was always reluctant.

Walking out a long way along the periphery of the fox tribe, they found a lake with relatively shallow water, where there are a lot of taro, close to this small forest, the surrounding vegetation is very rich, Gu Xi sprinkled some insect repellent and animal repellent powder for himself, carefully looked for it in the forest, and after a while, he found the storage of chili peppers, different from the red peppers of the bear clan, all of them are big green peppers, and the green peppers with big feet and palms are full of hanging on the branches, Gu Xi broke it and smelled it, it is not very spicy, it is suitable for stir-frying, When the time comes, leave the pepper seeds and plant them in your own yard.

Huo Bai and the Tong family father and son were hunting not far away, the Tong family father and son went further, they needed to save enough meat, and Huo Bai only needed to prepare today's food first, the two of them had become partners, so Huo Bai could clearly smell the smell belonging to Gu Xi from a distance, and there were few particularly fierce beasts in places where there were tiger orcs, Gu Xi was very relieved to look for new ingredients in the forest, and one after another new discoveries made him feel exceptionally good.

"Gu Xi, look, what did I catch" Huo Bai was carrying a gray thing on his back, and he was croaking non-stop.

"Wow, duck" Gu Xi stepped forward in surprise and grabbed the duck's neck.

Speaking of this world, it is really peculiar, the separation of animals is very obvious, except for the common gurgling birds and fanged pigs, like hairless beasts, white-haired beasts only appear in specific areas, just like this duck, he has never seen it in the tiger and leopard clan, this duck is so fat, think of roast duck, saltwater duck, duck neck...... Gu Xi licked his lips greedily again.

"I'll eat this at noon today, grill it, this thing is the best to eat roasted" The pure natural and pollution-free duck here, even if there are no secret sauces, the taste of the roast will be first-class, as for the roast duck, the job will be handed over to Huo Bai, a barbecue expert in the beast world.

Huo Bai quickly went to deal with the ducks, there are many waters here, Huo Bai actually saw a lot of this animal wandering in the water along the way, this animal is very similar to a giggling bird, I don't know if I can raise it like a giggling bird, just thinking like this, Gu Xi began to talk over there.

"This duck can also be raised, huh...... Get some work to go back when you go," Gu Xi said happily, "The fox clan is skillful, I don't know if anyone can weave some baskets, so that the ducks can be brought back alive, after all, the road is too far, and it is not easy to bring them back alive." Thinking of this, Gu Xi was eager to make zuò baskets and baskets, I don't know if there is a bamboo forest here, and if there is no bamboo, it can be replaced by other plants, the craftsmanship of the fox clan is very good, this is a good opportunity.

Huo Bai listened to Gu Xi's broken thoughts, the corners of his mouth turned up slightly, he liked this feeling very much, this kind of Gu Xi looked very cute, although he looked serious, but the way he thought made him feel itchy in his heart every time, if it wasn't for the fact that there was something in his hand that hadn't been dealt with, he wanted to go up directly and block the non-stop mouth.

By the time the father and son of the Tong family came back with the prey on their backs, Huo Bai had already dealt with the duck, the whole duck was cleanly skinned and roasted on the fire, the skin on the outside was already burnt yellow, and the seasoning exuded a burst of fragrance, Huo Bai turned the duck with a smile, Gu Xi sat by the fire, in addition to the red face roasted by the fire, and his particularly red lips, Tong Xiu saw it at a glance, pursed his lips and smiled, Gu Xi was really embarrassed, Huo Bai was really getting worse and worse, the big field almost wiped the gun, and now his mouth is hot, It's like eating chili, why do you use so much force, it's almost like eating him.

"The taro I buried below is almost ripe" Gu Xi awkwardly took a wooden stick and pulled it on the ground a few times to divert Tong Xiu's attention, their staple food for lunch today is still taro, there is no pot in the wild, the taro is washed, wrapped directly with large leaves, evenly sprinkled with a little salt, and buried in the soil under the fire.

Tong Xiu came to help with face, turned out the taro buried in it, opened the leaves, the taro inside was light and fragrant, it was also very tempting, a mouthful of duck meat and a mouthful of taro, with its own water, although it was a little dry, and the seasoning was not rich, but it was delicious.

After lunch, everyone continued to get busy, the Tong family father and son had a good harvest today, because there were more prey, so they sent the prey back to deal with it first, and Gu Xi stayed in the forest, picked a lot of peppers, and used a lot of them when holding the ceremony, and they could cut some points and put them in when they fried vegetables.

Then he found the green onion again, the green onion was almost as tall as him, straight up there, if it weren't for Gu Xi not standing firm, he stepped on one and broke one, smelling the strong smell of green onions, he really couldn't find it, Gu Xi simply pulled a few, he even found that some green onions had seeds, this is really good, you can take it back and plant it, green onion fried meat or something...... It's all done.

When Huo Bai came back from hunting two more prey, the ground was already full of green peppers and green onions picked by Gu Xi, if it weren't for Huo Bai seeing that it was not early, he took Gu Xi out of the forest, Gu Xi was still searching carefully, and almost ran away, Gu Xi looked at the green peppers and green onions all over the ground, although they are not staple foods, but they can be used to increase the taste, and the food will be more and more delicious in the future.

Tie the green onions into a big bundle, put the green peppers into the animal skin bag, the two returned to the fox tribe, and the new ingredients attracted the onlookers of the fox tribe, Gu Xi was not stingy, after all, this was found in the territory of the fox tribe, he carefully explained the use of these two things, and even demonstrated on the spot, the people of the fox tribe were very grateful to him.

In order to express his gratitude, the patriarch Tang Ran sent him more linen, after all, compared to linen, the food in this world is the most precious, Gu Xi also told him the idea of finding someone who has good craftsmanship in making zuò, Tang Ran smiled, the whole tribe is naturally the best in his family's Tang Ning's craftsmanship.

At this time, the preparation that should be done is almost there, Tang Ning and Gu Xi studied how to weave baskets and baskets and the like, Tang Ning has seen what Gu Xi drew on the ground, and expressed great interest, this thing is made, they can save a lot of animal skins, life will be a lot more convenient, it only took two days, Tang Ning used a vine plant to weave a so-so basket out, this vine plant is very tough, but the flexibility is also excellent, the fox sometimes uses it to tie things, and it is just right to weave things.

Gu Xi looked at the gradually formed back basket, and had to sigh that the hands of the fox people were too skillful, for a while, all the fox people who had free time tried to use vines to weave things, because it didn't take too much time to weave this thing, and soon all kinds of baskets and back baskets came out, and every household used them, Gu Xi thought of the bamboo of the Tiger Clan, and when the time came, Tang Ning could use bamboo to weave, and the effect would definitely be better.

So, it was so busy that Tong Xiu and Tang Ning's big day came.

Most of the rituals in the beast world are the same, Tong Xiu and Tang Ning's ceremonies are particularly lively because of the large number of people, their new house is next to the patriarch's house, which Tang Ran has built for his younger brother a long time ago, it is the most exquisite wooden house in the entire tribe, after years of continuous transformation, it is particularly conspicuous in the entire tribe, Huo Bai took Gu Xi to visit, and had to sigh that Tang Ran's eldest brother is really a tyrant-level patriarch, the wooden house full of gems is simply blinding his eyes, he has never seen such a gorgeous wooden house, And Tang Ran prepared a new house for his younger brother, hoping that Tong Xiu could bring his younger brother back to live permanently in the future.

"Boy, if you dare to treat Xiao Ning badly, the entire fox clan will not let you go" Tang Ran said very strictly at the ceremony, anyone can see his reluctance, his younger brother was brought up by his own hands, they had no father and mother when they were very young, he took on the burden of taking care of his younger brother early, and he, the patriarch, was completely dependent on his own ability, so the whole tribe was very convinced of him.

Tong Xiu nodded again and again, and Tang Ning hugged his brother with red eyes: "Brother, I will definitely be happy!" Don't worry, my vision won't be wrong! ”

Tong Xiu held Tang Ning's hand tightly and looked at the other party, his eyes full of determination. Although they were set in a hurry, in Gu Xi's words, it was a flash marriage, but he believed in his first sight, at that time, when he first saw Tang Ning, he decided that it was this person, and it will not change in the future, this is the person he wants to accompany for a lifetime, and he personally put on a pearl that has been transformed into a necklace for Tang Ning, this is what Gu Xi told him, the original white beads are called pearls, which means that the circle is complete, it is a very wrong thing, Tang Ning is skillful, and he simply changed it to a necklace, which happened to be used in exchange at the ceremony, So Tong Xiu kissed his partner in the presence of the beast god.

The most lively ritual of the fox clan lasted until the night, and everyone sang and danced, not only because they had a new husband and wife today, but also because they were happy that they were getting more and more food with their own hands.

Huo Bai put his arm around Gu Xi's shoulders and looked at the jumping firelight, their days would be better.
