Chapter 97: The Egg Is Laid
A month passed by in a flash, and everything was going on in an orderly manner.
The new wall is being built rapidly, and the hunting team brings back live prey from time to time to try to raise them, and Su Yan and the exploration team also collect a large number of herbs.
In the past month, two babies under the age of one fell ill, one adult was poisoned, two of the three were cured by Su Yan, and only one baby died.
If there is no Su Yan's medical skills and herbs, the possibility of the two babies surviving is not high, even if the poisoned adult can survive, he will be classified as sick and disabled in the future, fortunately, two of them were cured by Su Yan, in Su Yan's opinion, the dragon tribe is still very weak, and every clansman is very important.
Su Yan's daily activity list has almost been fixed, one-half to three-quarters of the daytime is spent exploring the jungle, hoping to find crops and metal veins, and at the same time collect a large number of herbs, after returning to the tribe, Su Yan will practice boxing, and at this time, the Xiaohua Xiaoyue sisters will also come over to practice boxing with Su Yan.
As for the little time left during the day, Su Yan mainly focused on the animals raised by the tribe.
A month ago, the tribe raised animals such as pigs, deer, roe deer, and golden pheasants, and a month later, in addition to roe deer, the number of other three animals has increased more or less, and the golden chicken is the animal with the largest increase, which has reached eight, and the types of animals raised are more sheep, a total of three sheep, one male and two females.
In fact, there are other animals that are captured by the hunting team and ready to be raised, such as rabbits, monkeys, etc., which are not suitable for breeding for the time being, and are directly eaten as food on the same day. (Cage rabbits, probably the cage will be gnawed by rabbits)
Each animal pen is still relatively spacious, but compared to the vast jungle, it will be very narrow, and the beasts that have just lived in the animal circle will panic and fear, and want to escape from this small animal circle and return to the vast jungle.
It's just that the animal pen made of adobe bricks is very high and strong, and the adult wild boar can't shake the brick wall when it hits the brick wall hard, and the deer can't do anything if he wants to jump out of the animal circle.
There are also flying golden pheasants, as long as you add a large net to the animal circle.
After the most panicked days at the beginning, the animals that were caught slowly accepted the life of being raised, and every day they took the initiative to deliver food to their doors, had shelter from the wind and rain, and did not need to worry about natural enemies, and lived a happy life of eating, sleeping, sleeping and eating every day, and gained weight.
On this day, when he came back from exploring the jungle, Su Yan was accustomed to walking a few steps to the animal circle, taking a look at the animals in the animal circle, there was no problem with other animal circles, and when he walked to the animal pen where the golden pheasants were raised, Su Yan found that there seemed to be something in the nest made by the golden chickens themselves in the animal circle.
"It's eggs! The golden chicken has laid eggs! Su Yan had already determined the contents of the chicken coop, and his mood was inexplicably happy.
Su Yan ordered a clansman to take out the eggs in the chicken nest in the animal pen, rummaged carefully, and finally found only one egg.
The brocade egg is oval in shape, and the eggshell is white and almost pale pink, which is smaller than a normal egg.
"Boiled eggs, egg custard, scrambled eggs with tomatoes, scrambled eggs with cucumbers, ......" Looking at the first glance of the brocade eggs, Su Yan thought of how to eat this brocade egg, instead of putting the brocade eggs back and waiting for the brocade chicken to hatch the eggs and expand the brocade chicken population.
Anyway, the golden chicken has laid eggs, which means that the golden chicken has become accustomed to the current life, is content with the status quo, and will continue to lay eggs in the future, and there is no problem at all to eat a few eggs, and the hunting team will catch more golden chickens.
Now Su Yan just wants to taste the taste of brocade eggs.
Take a clay bowl, fill it with water and put it on the stove, wash the only brocade egg with water, put it in the clay bowl, and light a fire to boil the boiled egg.
In about six or seven minutes, the brocade eggs were boiled, and after patiently waiting for the heat to go down, Su Yan picked up the boiled brocade eggs.
Suddenly there was a feeling of tears in his eyes, Su Yan didn't know that this was because of boiled eggs and remembering some pictures in his previous life or eating boiled eggs for the first time in this life, anyway, he was very excited, and it was difficult to calm down for a while.
There was only one brocade egg, which was probably only enough for one bite to eat, and Su Yan had no idea of sharing it with others.
Gently knocking the brocade egg on the stove, Su Yan peeled off the shell of the brocade egg little by little, revealing a white and tender brocade egg.
Bringing the brocade egg to his mouth, Su Yan took a light bite, and a third of the brocade egg entered his mouth and chewed slowly.
What kind of feeling is it to eat brocade eggs, probably similar to eating boiled eggs, but this brocade eggs are several times better than the eggs produced in modern farms.
Su Yan is not a gourmet, so he can't describe the taste of brocade eggs, he only knows that brocade eggs are delicious, and he wants to eat the second one after eating the first one, but unfortunately the second brocade egg may have to wait until tomorrow.
Boiled eggs, egg custard, scrambled eggs, Su Yan once again had all kinds of brocade eggs in his mind, well, I will try them one by one in the future.
Eating is one of the major events in life, Su Yan is anxious to make the Dragon Tribe stronger, and after the Dragon Tribe is strong, he can eat well, drink well, and live well.
Modern people have been busy making money all their lives, don't they just want to earn enough money to enjoy a better life?
Work hard to eat, no problem.
In the following days, eating eggs became the most anticipated moment for Su Yan's daily life, if the golden chicken did not lay eggs one day, Su Yan had an idea of eating the golden chicken, fortunately, the golden chickens have been accustomed to this kind of life, after the first golden chicken laid eggs, two golden chickens laid eggs one after another.
It may be that the pheasant can only produce (hatch) a fixed number of eggs per litter, and after taking away the eggs laid by the pheasant every day, the pheasant will lay eggs the next day, just like the domesticated hen lays eggs every day.
Almost every day, he was able to get three brocade eggs, which made Su Yan enjoy it for a long time, boiled eggs, scrambled eggs, and scrambled eggs with wild vegetables, and changed them every day, and only stopped when Su Yan was a little tired of eating, and did not take away the eggs laid by the golden chicken, ready to let the golden chicken hatch his own eggs.
Brocade eggs are temporarily only enjoyed by Su Yan in the dragon tribe, and the Xiaohua Xiaoyue sisters have been eating fish and animal meat, and the taste is good with eggs, but the Xiaohua Xiaoyue sisters don't show much love for eggs.
Jin eggs are not too strange in the dragon tribe, sometimes the hunting team will also accidentally find the nest of birds, bring back some bird eggs, eggs, under normal circumstances, everyone is eaten raw, children are slightly interested in bird eggs this kind of snack, adults do not like to eat much, it is better to eat fish, animal meat.
Now the dragon tribe raises fewer brocade chickens, and when there are more brood chickens in the future, there are more eggs laid by brocade chickens, and everyone often eats brocade eggs, maybe they will change their minds.
