Chapter 4 Food Problems
Xiaobai ate a bunch of leaves, and then fell asleep in He Chen's arms, He Chen guessed that it should be digesting.
After feeding Xiaobai, He Chen gently put Xiaobai down, and then walked out of their small cave with Di.
At this time, it was already dark, and five bonfires were raised halfway up the mountainside, on which two startled deer were roasted, a total of ten, and the people of the Green Worm tribe were sitting around the bonfire.
"Morning, Di, come here!"
Jian beckoned to them, flanked by wings.
Because Jian is the second most powerful person in the Green Worm Tribe, he is very familiar with the leader Wing, and even He Chen and Di are also familiar with him.
Of course, there are more than forty people in the Green Worm Tribe, who are actually very familiar with each other, like a big family.
With his back to this side, he hurriedly turned his head when he heard Jian's words, and his eyes lit up when he saw He Chen:
"Come on, boy! Eat your fattest belly today! ”
None of the people at the fire cared.
Meritorious people eat more, this is the rule.
Today, He Chen avoided the bloodshed of the conflict and ate the fattest belly, and everyone had no opinion.
He Chen and Di walked over, sat down next to the wings, and then looked at the barbecue steadily.
The treated startled horn deer looked like the roasted whole sheep that He Chen had eaten in his previous life, the hair was stripped away, and there was a psychedelic feeling on the meat.
He Chen's heart flashed with the information of the startled deer.
Horned Deer: The curvature of the antlers can subtly alter the flow of air around it, creating a magical space that, if you stare at its horns, creates a magical sensation that seems to be sucked into the center of the circle.
In his previous life, Zhiye fell into this kind of hallucination.
However, because the perfectly shaped horns of the deer could be sold for a high price as a work of art, they were overhunted and almost extinct in later generations.
In front of He Chen, the entire body of the deer was tied to a piece of wood after it was cleaned, and from time to time someone turned the wooden stick to heat the meat evenly.
The meat has been roasted for a while, and I saw that the whole flesh was golden and yellow, and from time to time some oil was roasted and dripped onto the flame, making a "zizi" sound.
A scent slowly spreads.
The campfires gradually fell silent, and they all stared at the meat on their fires with red eyes.
"Let's eat!"
Tsubasa seemed to be unable to hold back, and then with an order, he took the roast off.
Everyone grabbed the roasted hot deer with their bare hands, and then tore off large slices of meat.
Everyone doesn't have so many rules, except for the fat that will be rewarded to He Chen today, everything else is free to use.
"Wait, it's not ripe yet!"
He Chen couldn't help but say.
God, there's still blood in there!
But as if they hadn't heard, the crowd continued to tear off the meat, put it in their mouths and chew it, making a "click-click" sound.
Some women move too much and accidentally have a spring outbreak, but no one has the leisure to pay attention, and it's not that they can't see it, so they are concentrating on dealing with the meat in their hands.
He Chen looked at this scene and didn't know what it was like.
But......
The problem is the hand, big brothers and sisters!
Why don't you wash your hands!
Dee, that's you, you just picked your nose and don't think I didn't see it!
And you, Wing, did you touch your feet before because you were afraid that the meat would not smell salty?
"God......
He Chen looked at the defiled startled deer roast meat and felt a little sick to his stomach.
In the memory of "morning", the impression of meat is "delicious", "delicious", "so delicious!" ”。
The details of these meals simply do not exist.
"Here, eat."
Seeing that He Chen didn't move, Wing immediately tore off a large piece of fat on his stomach with the hand he had just picked his feet and handed it to He Chen, attracting a burst of envious eyes from the surroundings.
Envy a ghost!
So fat! It's so greasy! And this hand ......
He Chen silently took the big lump of fat.
"Eat!"
The wings tore off a deer's leg, chewing and urging.
How do you manage to eat while talking without biting your tongue......
"Uncle, can I exchange it with you?" He Chen looked expectantly at the wings and the scented deer legs in his wings.
He swallowed.
Deer legs are so much better than this lump of fat!
It looks delicious.
"How's that going to work! You've saved the tribe today! Winged eyes glared, unquestionable.
But in a blink of an eye, he thought that He Chen was caring about him and understanding him, so his tone became relieved in a blink of an eye:
"It's okay, uncle likes to eat deer legs, deer legs are better than fatty meat, you eat them in the morning."
You're relieved, I know deer legs are delicious!
I also like to eat deer legs......
What's going on with this "mom likes to eat fish tail and doesn't like to eat fish maw"?
After complaining for a while, feeling an empty stomach, He Chen thought about it, closed his eyes, and bit down on the half-raw piece of meat.
It didn't feel very greasy as I imagined, but I felt a fresh fragrance in the mouth.
The Green Worm tribe does not have condiments such as salt, so the barbecue only has a pure meat flavor, but there is a herbaceous fragrance in it, and the taste is also good, and the fat and thin are also very chewy.
Seeing He Chen eat the fatty meat, the wings were full of love and raised the greasy hand that had just touched the leg of mutton, and gently touched He Chen's head:
"I will definitely grow the strongest after the morning!"
Don't touch me with dirty hands!!
Uncle, I think you're targeting me......
But the head is dirty, leave him alone.
He Chen ate nearly a kilogram of meat in three times and divided five by two, and felt that he didn't want to move.
That's a kilogram! People are going to die.
And it's so greasy, after all, it's always a piece of fat.
The butterflies' food was nectar, which had been replenished when they went out hunting, so when they returned, the tribesmen came to bake the fire, and the butterflies returned to their respective masters' caves.
After eating, the wings ordered a few random night watchers, and then everyone returned to the cave satisfied.
……
After a night.
He Chen got up early in the morning, half of him was thirsty. Half of it was choked.
The water is stored exclusively in one of the caves, which contains several large tanks.
He ran to the foot of the mountain to sprinkle, and then to a cave on the mountainside to drink.
At this point, the people of the hunting party were ready to go.
"Brothers and sisters! Today we are also going to hunt more prey! ”
Today, it is still wings to hunt, and they stay behind.
He Chen felt that the hunting and staying order of the Green Worm Tribe was very messy, for example, the wings that had been hunted yesterday had to go out today, and Jian, who had been idle at home for a long time yesterday, still had to stay at home.
Especially the fact that Wing, as the leader, had to go out hunting, He Chen disagreed.
He decided to go and talk to Tsubasa about his thoughts.
"Uncle Wing, wait!"
He Chen shouted and ran towards the foot of the mountain.
The people of the hunting team stopped with Ba Dadie on their heads and looked at He Chen in confusion.
"Why don't you take turns hunting? Uncle Wing, you always go out hunting, will the efficiency not be too high? And there are so many of you, mighty, and intelligent monsters know that you are not easy to mess with, and they will definitely avoid it, why don't you divide into squads? ”
He Chen said a large series of words without breathing.
Jian Heyi looked at He Chen like a monster, and the other warriors of the hunting team also looked at him with the same gaze.
What was this kid talking about just now?
"He Chen, don't worry, speak slowly, Uncle didn't understand." Tsubasa scratched his head with his big swarthy hand.
He Chen just said a lot, he basically didn't understand, but he could feel that it seemed to be useful.
He Chen took a breath, calmed down, and said slowly: "I said, why doesn't hunting take turns, for example, if this group of people goes out today, it will be another group of people tomorrow, otherwise you will be very tired." ”
Wing said: "I understand this, I mean the ones in the back, what 'efficiency', what 'mighty'?" ”
Dizzy, you illiterate.
Oh yes, I was illiterate in the first place, and now in this era there is not even "literature".
"That's it, a dozen of you, a dozen of you, a dozen butterflies, oh, white butterflies." He Chen patiently explained: "There are so many of you acting together, some weak demonic beasts will flee when they see and hear it, and although the powerful demonic beasts are not afraid of you, they will hurt you, why don't you divide into smaller teams?" ”
"Also, you start from this direction every day, there are still yellow worm tribes hunting in this direction, there must be very little prey, why not change the direction?"
The people of the hunting team looked at the thin boy in front of them with a blank look, and the wings looked at He Chen again, as if they knew their nephew for the first time.
"Chen, our hunting routes are all set, and if we want to open up other routes, we may encounter losses, after all, there are too many dangerous magical beasts in the forest......" Jian explained.
He Chen was stunned.
"As for those who go hunting......" Jian's gaze looked at the wings.
Jian also felt that what He Chen said made sense, but the leader was Wing, not him.
"Good! We'll talk about it when we come back today! Wing nodded: "Now let's go quickly, otherwise we won't be able to come back in the evening." ”
As he spoke, he patted He Chen's head, then turned around and galloped towards the forest.
The hunting party and the butterflies followed, especially the huge butterfly with wings, which caught up with the wings with a gust of wind.
He Chen looked at the hunting team that was gradually moving away, and his heart was not happy.
I set off before dawn and came back when it was almost dark.
And there are basically no elves around this hill, it's safe, but you don't know if it's far away,
There are all kinds of elves in the depths of the forest.
Fire, poison, and flight......
Many elves will injure the hunting party, after all, Ba Dadie is really not a powerful elf.
"Looks like I'm going to have to figure it out as soon as possible......"
He Chen's heart was heavy.
Go outside Grandpa White Butterfly's territory and hunt elves! Conquer the elves!
Diverse sprite configurations are the only way to cope with diverse prehistoric environments and diverse challenges.
"Let's go, morning." Jian said hello, then jumped towards the top of the mountain.
He must stand in a place with a good view to prevent dangerous elements from approaching the tribe.
Although there is the deterrence of Grandpa White Butterfly, it is also his duty to guard the territory.
When He Chen returned to the cave, Xiaobai and Di had already woken up, and Di was feeding Xiaobai Yezi to eat.
Seeing He Chen come back, Xiaobai dropped the leaves, and then happily pounced on He Chen.
He Chen's mood immediately improved again.
He put Xiaobai on his shoulder, but Xiaobai felt uncomfortable, climbed on top of him again, and lay down on top of his dirty head.
"Xiaobai, you are green, you can't come to me!" He Chen wanted to take Xiaobai off.
"Huh?"
Xiaobai rubbed He Chen's hair suspiciously, making He Chen feel like he was being massaged.
"Okay......"
He Chen petted Xiaobai dotingly, anyway, there is no green metaphysics in this world.
That kind of color theory full of vitality should not exist!
He turned to Di and said, "Di, are you taking me to pick leaves today?" ”
"Okay." Di stood up, stood on tiptoe and touched Xiaobai above He Chen's head: "Take Xiaobai with you?" ”
He Chen nodded as a matter of course.
In the memories he inherited, the fruit trees were not far away, and they were in a safe range.
"Wait, I'll take this out and throw it away." Di hunched down and picked up two round objects from the ground.
It is the pit of the peach fruit which I ate yesterday.
He Chen didn't care about it, but when he saw the two fruit cores, he suddenly had a flash of inspiration: "Wait!" ”
Di stopped and looked at He Chen in bewilderment.
"Why don't we plant fruit trees?" He Chen's eyes lit up.
"That's right! And all kinds of food! ”
It suddenly occurred to him that their main source of food was meat, and besides meat was all kinds of tree fruits.
Not to mention grains like rice and rice, I haven't even eaten vegetables!
And the Green Worm Tribe won't be planted yet!
The fruit is thrown away after eating, and no one finds that the pits will take root and sprout, and no one has the leisure time to stare at the "garbage" of the fruit pit.
And, who said it was necessary to hunt? Haven't heard of a farm?
"Feasible!"
He Chen paced back and forth in the narrow cave, his eyes getting brighter and brighter.
"Chen, what's wrong with you?"
Di looked at He Chen inexplicably.
"Huh?"
Xiaobai also rubbed He Chen's head with his little hand and made a puzzled sound.
"You come with me, don't throw away the kernel!"
He Chen took Di's hand and ran out.
By this time, it was just dawn, and some old people had already gotten up to clean up the traces of the previous night's bonfire, while some old people and lactating women carried some processed venison to the other side of the mountain to dry.
Three children ran towards He Chen.
"Morning! You're amazing! ”
"Yes, Chen, why are you so powerful!"
"Morning is really amazing!"
The three children were younger than Dee, estimated to be only five or six years old, and there was only one little girl among them.
"You go to your Eminem, I have something to do right now!"
He Chen smiled and pushed away the three children who were poor in vocabulary, and then continued to run towards the top of the mountain.
Eminem means mother, abba means father, and all other men of the same age as father are called uncle, and all women are called aunt.
The three children let out an "oh" and ran away.
He Chen saw that Jian was not on the side of the back sun, so he ran towards the other side of the hill.
"Chen, what's wrong with you?" He Chen had already let go of Di's hand, and Di followed closely behind He Chen.
"I thought of a solution."
"The way to have more food!"
