The movement of the children was like the sound of the trumpets of the tribe, and then the adults heard the movement coming out of the tent one after another.

"Nao Yan is back."

The sound of greeting Nao Yan came and went, but to the surprise of Qi Qi and Ji Cheng, although they didn't know how to call themselves, they kept greeting themselves with "He Saibainu" with a reverent expression.

"They're saying hello." With a smile on his face, Nao Yan greeted everyone and explained to the two of them, "The Red Dragon Tribe has solved our food problem, and anyone from the Red Dragon Tribe is a distinguished guest of the Kunshan Tribe. We came all the way from the north, so basically all we saw was meadow. I'll take you to see the grain we grow in a moment. ”

The tent in Kunshan is made of stone and earth and is covered with thick white reeds, and the curtain made of gray-white coarse cloth is hung with multicolored rope and woven tassels.

"Aren't tents all about being portable?" Ji Cheng has also seen tents, although there are big and small, but the big ones are not like Kunshan. Along the way, the smallest tents in Kunshan are all about the size of a zhang, not to mention the big ones.

"We also have portable ones, but they are all on the prairie. It was where the people in charge of grazing lived, so that they could move with the pasture. ”

Naoyan's footsteps stopped in front of the largest and only blue tent.

There were already people waiting outside the tent, holding clay pots and long blue cloth belts.

The horses they were leading were taken down. Nao Yan carefully took the long blue cloth belt with his hands, and then bowed down and handed it to Qi Qi, "This we become Hada, which is a gift to your guests." ”

Nao Yan's expression was extremely solemn, and he was so shocked that he hurriedly lowered his head and asked him to hang Hada around his neck, and said thank you in his mouth.

Ji Yin, who also accepted Hada, had some curiosity about the blue Hada. Blue is a very rare color because only a very small number of plants are able to provide a bluish dye.

"Blue is the color of the sky. For our Kunshan department, blue is the most noble color. ”

With the help of the women, Naoyan had put on their robes and fastened their thick belts. The curtain of the tent had been lifted, and Nao Yan led them into the tent.

In order to protect against the wind, a bonfire is also burning inside the tent during the day, and a lamb is caught in the fire and roasted, accompanied by the burning of the flames, the oil flowers make a sizzling sound, and the aroma is overflowing. Washed blades of grass fluttered directly on the low table around the campfire, and a cup of warm milk tea was steaming in a humble cup.

Nao Yan invited the two to sit down. He picked up the milk tea and raised his glass to the two, "Messenger of the Red Dragon Tribe, welcome to the Kunshan Department." ”

If when they ascended the mountain, Nao Yan welcomed the two on his behalf, now he is the leader of the Kunshan tribe, welcoming the envoys from the Red Dragon tribe on behalf of the Kunshan tribe.

At the same time, there were also the men of the Kunshan tribe who were seated, they were the strong-mouthed men of this grassland, and they were the pillars of this tribe. Some of them still had a flush on their faces, indicating that they were hurrying back from outside.

Even if there is a news that the Eagle realizes brings back Naoyan, everything is prepared in a hurry for them.

"The sheep still need a little time, please eat some beef first."

With Naoyan's clapping, the curtain of the tent was lifted, and a group of fifteen or sixteen-year-old teenagers walked in, led by two people carrying a huge wooden plank on which were large pieces of beef that had been cooked to a crisp.

A piece of fleshy vertebrae and half a rib, and a piece of fat intestine were first dedicated to Qi Qi and Ji Ying. The rest of the food was given to Nao Yan before being distributed to the others.

This is an extremely novel experience for Ji Yin. In his cognition, the ox is the main labor force and a symbol of farming, otherwise Jiang Lianshan would not have a cow skull with huge and beautiful horns behind the big seat.

Although they had eaten beef, it was an old cow at the end of its life, and it was a rare item that could only be shared in small pieces during large celebrations.

The bone-in beef is soft and delicate, and even the soup flows into your mouth when you bite into it, which is completely different from the texture and taste of jerky.

The whole sheep on the fire finally passed the test, Nao Yan took the long knife, directly removed the recommended bone and put it in front of the two, the crispy golden sheepskin was still spitting bubbles on the oil.

"Try it, this is the most delicious lamb of the steppe."

The oily puff pastry even had some traces of toasting, wrapping the soft and tender lamb inside, just a little salt to taste, but it made the taste buds on his tongue dance feverishly.

Ji Cheng couldn't stop at all after the first bite. It turned out that he was still using a blade to take slices of meat, and he directly grabbed the lamb bone and began to gnaw, causing the man in the tent to laugh.

Their laughter was not a mockery of the boy's behavior, but a bold and hearty one.

This is the attitude that the men on the grassland should have when they eat meat.

"Is salt produced on the grasslands?" Qi Pi asked Nao Yan with some curiosity. This roasted whole sheep doesn't want the cuisine in the Red Dragon tribe to just use a little salt to mention it, and to achieve this taste, I think a lot of salt is used.

"On the west side of the grassland, there is Dabsunnaoer, which is a white salt pond, which is a gift from the gods to the grassland, and is the common source of salt for the grassland tribes." Nao Yan gave each of them another rib, and then handed the big knife to the young man who had been waiting beside him, "That is the mirror that the gods fell on the grassland." After I'm done with the enchantment, I'll take you there. ”

The enthusiasm of the Kunshan Department made the two of them eat and drink enough, especially Ji Ying, who had a round belly, so that when he changed into the clothes of the Kunshan Department, his belt was tied a few points looser than that of the Kunshan Department.

However, with the praise of the clothes and the small leather boots, the slender figures and vitality of the two teenagers are fully reflected.

A bearded man patted Ji Ying's shoulder vigorously, "Come back early in the evening, let's drink Alqiru together!" ”

Alqi is a milk wine brewed in Kunshan. Nao Yan rode on the horse and laughed, and even Qi Qi couldn't help laughing. But the person concerned slapped back directly, his eyes sparkling, "Definitely!" I've never drunk milk wine before! ”

Nao Yan drove the horse and led the two out of the tribe from the south. Instead of galloping like in the morning, the horses paced and led the three of them along the blue lake. The clouds in mid-air are different from the silk wisps of forgotten clouds, like ripe cotton, casting their own reflections on the surface of the lake.

What's even more appealing is the large expanse of green. The grains that had already borne bent the stalks that had been straight upwards turned into green waves in the breeze. TVmobile/

"This is Yuanmai." Nao Yan looked at the ocean and stared intently, "Before Leader Jiang discovered this plant, we also tried to grow grains. But here, only wheat survives briefly in the middle of summer. In the most difficult time, we killed all our cattle and sheep, not even the horses, leaving only the pregnant mother animal. When we didn't even have horses to eat, we had to live on soup from the scarce wild vegetables on the edge of the river. ”

"Chief Jiang has been on this grassland for a month. He brought back seeds of wheat and artichoke. They are able to withstand the severe cold of winter and the sun of summer, and they can grow tenaciously and tassel and flower. Naoyan's body hung from the horse, his fingertips gently brushing the wide leaves, "And the leaves of Yuanmai can also provide food for cattle and sheep in winter." ”

"Chief Jiang must be the messenger of the gods, who came to the world to save us."
