When the fragrance was so fast that people couldn't help it, a group of people came outside, because of the current ability of the tribe, they can only build houses that are more spacious than the house, so now the canteen can only seat about 20 tables of people, and each meal is eaten in batches.
The first to come to eat were the warriors who needed to go to the changing of the guard and the tribesmen who were doing things, because there were hundreds of new tribesmen, plus the fatigue and hunger of the long distance, so the old people and children were disabled and the warriors of the Ji tribe were allowed to eat first.
When it comes to what delicious food can be remembered at one time, it must be something exciting.
The dry pot in front of you is made of all kinds of small animals cut into small pieces, taro, dried bamboo shoots, bracken moss, all mixed together. The bright red peppers inside light up the colors, and each piece is covered in bright red oil, and it looks like you have an appetite.
"What kind of meat is this, it's so delicious!" For these people, who usually only boil meat, this practice is now completely subverting their perception of eating.
"Looks like it's hare meat, huh? God, it's no wonder that the more we say that after eating their food, we are reluctant to leave! "The people of the Bey tribe only need to wait until the food is ready and they will leave, and now that they have eaten such delicious things, they don't want to leave in their hearts, who can leave these delicacies?
"It's so delicious, it's just a little exciting."
"It's exciting, you see I'm sweating, I don't have to wear clothes with this! Now you can go hunting! The man who spoke was a man with a disability in his legs, but he was very confident in puffing out his biceps to show himself to his tablemates.
"Grandma, drink more soup" A little girl carefully raised the wild vegetable soup in her hand.
"Okay, good" Grandma gently took the soup in her hand, the warm bowl warmed her hand, and a satisfied smile appeared on her face full of wrinkles and age spots.
"This soup is delicious, these green dishes?" Grandma's eyes were not very clear, and after tasting the soup, she saw the green vegetables floating in the bowl, her face was shocked, and the old man at the same table was also stunned.
"Ah Yao, tell me how you made this wild vegetable that is obviously in the middle of summer?" Grandma, who is also an old woman, asked.
"I don't know" she was also puzzled, they didn't have to cook dried vegetables, but without exception, they were all damp and rotten after the rain.
"Grandma, these are all sun-dried!" When the warrior at the next table heard it, he immediately proudly popularized science.
"After drying, put it in a clay pot and seal it, and grab a handful to eat if you want to eat it."
The old woman at the table looked at me, I looked at you, and instantly understood the reason for her failure.
"And how do you get all this freshness?" Grandma pointed to a bowl of fresh and delicious bamboo shoots on the table.
"Oh, this one is also sealed with a pottery bowl, but this one is soaked in salt water" This is a delicious kimchi, but Li Yue hasn't seen any other dishes that can be pickled, so he has only made a lot of pickled fresh bamboo shoots.
Unlike fresh bamboo shoots, this pickled bamboo shoot is crispier and more tender, with less bitterness and astringency from fresh bamboo shoots and more salty aroma. It is a second choice for seniors and small children at the table.
There are delicious meats in the dry pot to satisfy your appetite, plenty of taro and dried bamboo shoots to fill your stomach, refreshing pickled bamboo shoots to relieve spicy, and wild vegetables and bone broth to warm up.
At the end of the meal, everyone touched their stomachs with satisfaction, and everyone's bowl was licked and shiny. I could see that the people around me had dry mouths. I really want to rush up and eat a lot of food.
"It's delicious," said the person who hadn't eaten it, looking at the wiped out table as if he had eaten it himself.
"After eating, you put all the bowls in the big basin over there" The tribe was not manpower before, only a thousand bowls were made, the canteen used a large head, and every other house was nothing, so they now eat the first batch of people to eat and wash it immediately, and then give it to the people behind.
The second group came with some old people and children, who mixed and ate together with the Light Tribe, and ate together until they had eaten three rounds.
"There are so many people in the Ji tribe, and they have eaten so much, they can eat for a few days" The light tribe who was picking his teeth was a little worried.
"Like, when we all add more, do they have the ability?" I am also a little worried about joining the Hebei tribe, they only satisfy their satiety with ordinary food, but now they sit so deliciously, and their appetite is also a lot heavier, according to the comparison between what they usually eat and this, they will eat a lot more because it is delicious.
"Hey......" Before they all thought that the Ji tribe did not have the ability to feed more, until they went to fetch food with the Ji tribe, they saw that there was a terrible amount of bacon hanging in the house, and dried taro was also piled up in the room.
According to them, they harvested all the taro that could be seen in the surrounding area, and there were two whole houses.
In fact, about Li Yuecai's taro, he also said that he would leave some seeds, after all, he heard that there were things everywhere, and there were more places farther away, so Li Yuecai worked hard to finish the surroundings.
But for the primitive people's so-called surroundings are usually calculated in a day's journey, so they have a lot, taro is dried and stored in a dry and ventilated place, and the taro stalks are pickled, every time you want to eat it, scoop it up, this thing is also delicious, although not crisp and tender, but soft and delicious, in their sacrifice said, if there is rice he can eat 5 bowls! Although they don't know where this rice is, they might as well imagine things.
Yams and cassava are all taken away in the surroundings, but because those two are easy to sprout, they are more roasted and dried. Freshly stored is also plentiful. There are also several large pots of soaked fern moss and dried fern moss. There are also a lot of fern moss powder, and you can eat these "wild grasses" all over the mountains, and there are so many ways to eat them, and they are so delicious. The Light Tribe and the Bei Tribe constantly scolded themselves in their hearts for having no eyes.
Wild vegetables are all leafy and stored in jars, and those with few leaves are smoked or dried upside down like bacon.
Seeing that the wild vegetables were obviously less than the meat, the priests regretfully said that if they ran farther, the variety and number of wild vegetables would definitely be more.
In addition, the exaggeration is the bamboo shoots, a room is full of large jars, the bottom is full of soaked bamboo shoots, and the top is full of dried bamboo shoots, densely filling the whole house.
And when they came, they saw that the things hanging on the stove in each house should also be bamboo shoots.
Sun-dried bamboo shoots will be as big as fresh bamboo shoots after soaking, and this huge amount shows that they are not lying when they say that they can feed more people through the winter.
And the salt they needed most was not as much as in a room, but they were shocked by the salt in the jars that were as tall as people.
"So much salt!" Is this digging to the salt mountain?
At this time, the people of the Guangbei tribe are sour, obviously they are all primitive people, why do you eat fragrant and drink spicy food? Look at what people eat, look at what people wear, look at what people live in. Compared to their own home, I can't see it.
While showing them their reserve strength, the Ji tribe also loaded food for the people of the Bei tribe, and because of the long distance, they could only decorate bacon, dried vegetables, and taro. The rest is salt, otherwise they would have choked just by carrying things.
But the Bei tribe looked at those delicious foods, especially their small snacks. Yam slices and taro slices are so crispy and sweet, it is said that these can be divided as long as they are performed for a long time. Are they most afraid of trouble? No!
Are they lazy? No! As long as they can join in as soon as possible to do things, the house with good food and drink will come immediately, so they want to go back as soon as possible and bring their clansmen with them.
"No matter how anxious you are, you will set off tomorrow, it is a bit dangerous to set off now, just now when we were hunting, we saw some carnivorous beasts infested, and it is even more unsafe at night"
If the ordinary animal is not afraid, even the beast has to avoid it.
"That's it, rest for the night, and see what the floor heating is."
"Okay, then I'll trouble you"
There are also many new tribesmen who have joined, and the people of the Ji tribe have gathered to throw mud and make turns, striving to make materials for dozens of rooms. When the Light Tribe and the Bei Tribe heard about it, they also rushed over to help.
The mud in winter is really not easy to dig, it is like digging on stones. But with the use of iron, dredging was easy.
One group struggled to dig the mud, while another carried the dirt into a large pit. There are a lot of strong men in the pit who are stepping on the mud.
"It's so cold, it's so cold," the big man who stepped on the mud shivered with the lower half of his body in contact with the cold mud.
"No wonder the priest said don't make a turn in winter, this one is really cold"
"Hey, they should do their house, I really want to go back to the house"
"Ah, I want to warm up the floor too"
"What are you muttering, we didn't have any clothes on such a cold day before, and we still had to hunt and gather food, didn't we come here like this? And this is to build a house for the new clan, which is equivalent to doing the same for yourself," one of the clansmen who heard the conversation between the two scolded. He was older, had experienced many winters, cherished everything he had now, wanted to redouble his efforts to make the tribe better, and couldn't see the tribe making excuses for being lazy.
When the two of them heard this, they hurriedly waved their hands and shook their heads and said that they were just talking and playing, indicating that they would do it seriously.
After stepping on the mud, it is to fall into the mud, a group of men keep beating the mud embryo, and then put it in the mold, and then use tools to cross off the soil that is more than the mold, a square brick is ready, only need to dry for a few days can be placed in the cave to fire.
The cement of Li Yuelong is very simple, grinding limestone and clay into flour, and then calcining the mature material. Grinding with clinker and slag left over after ironmaking is cement.
This is a tiring job and tedious, but it is already a very simple method compared to the later generations. This can also be done by women and some men.
The sand and gravel used for cement were collected from the streams on the edge of the tribe. This can be obtained by sifting a few more times.
The tiles are made by the children and elders of the tribe, which is not very technical. But it needs a lot of people, so basically now the people in the tribe come out to do things.
The whole tribe was full of enthusiasm, and they were all happy with the newcomers.
The Light and Bay tribes are also actively involved. Many people sigh that what is clearly in front of them, as long as they change it, they can get more useful things, but they don't know the good in it.
"Don't do that, we weren't like you before! If it weren't for the sacrifice, we wouldn't know how to get it" The women of the Ji tribe are also willing to work hard, and the women grind a lot of lime noodles and come out, and teach several women from the Guang tribe and the Bei tribe how to do it.
"Mm-hmm, and the way you eat it is also very delicious, it's just god-eating" I swallowed my saliva now when I thought about it.
"Harm, the priest also said that these are not really delicious, and if you want to eat more delicious, you have to find spices."
"Ah! These don't have the taste that adults want? Several of the women dropped their jaws in shock, this is not really delicious!
"Yes, but the adults said, even if you can't find all the spices, there will be a lot of delicious food next year, but next year will be more fortunate, and you will have to open up the wasteland to grow food" The woman said that she was very puzzled, they had no planting experience before, but they had no concept of the sacrifice to open up the wasteland, so that they were ignorant of the word hard work. I don't think it's hard for them.
"Grow food?" The women who heard it were like opening the door of the times, yes, food grows, as long as they have seeds, it is not possible to grow food hemp, think about the food in front of themselves, eat it if you want, how cool it is! I admired this sacrificial lord for a while.
The food in the evening is to eat the taro with the pickled taro stalks, and everyone has a piece of slap-sized cured meat, as well as wild vegetable soup to drink. Although there is no stimulating dry pot at noon, these easy-to-eat and delicious foods satisfy everyone's five internal organs.
"Don't go yet, now follow them to the house" After dinner, Xingcao arranged the house by a few women. Find the people in each room separately and arrange for them to go together.
It was already dark after dinner, but fortunately, the white snow around it lit up the road.
"Come, you sit here first, wash your feet" Everyone cherishes their house very much, and every time they go in, they wash their feet and hands. Keep the inside clean and comfortable.
The "good" people who heard the words put their feet in a clay pot to wash, and they were a little afraid in their hearts, whether they were washing their feet in a clay pot or sleeping.
After washing, they went into the house wearing the simple rattan shoes they had made, and then the next one followed.
The moment she stepped into the house, she felt the warmth on the soles of her feet, it was very warm, and the blankets made of hay on the floor made her feel as comfortable as being held in her arms.
"It's really warm" It's not just the ground, it's the whole house.
"Haha, it feels hot and good" The house is full of women, old women, young children, everyone sitting with a lot of hay in their hands.
"Is that what is on the ground made of these grasses?" How can an usually useless and annoying grass weave such a beautiful and smooth mat? It's just waste utilization, infinite circulation, how many such fairy treasures have you missed?
"Haha, this girl is smart, you can see it at a glance, come on, don't stand up"
The "good" woman ran over happily, she was afraid that they would not let her see.
"Me, can I learn?" The woman who sat down saw that they were not shy about making up in front of her, and her heart looked forward to it.
"Of course you can, not only that, you will have to learn a lot in the future!" The young woman said with a smile, according to the requirements of the sacrifice, regardless of men, women, young and old, everyone must learn the skills of the tribe, even if their physical strength cannot keep up, they must understand and be familiar with the process.
The priest asked them to be better than the people of other tribes.
"Really? Great, you can teach me."
In another room, a group of women were cutting and sewing clothes, and as soon as the newcomers entered the door, they saw the finished clothes hanging on the walls of the room, and they were amazed and sighed to discuss the process of making clothes with the women of the Ji tribe.
And the men were not idle, everyone was weaving straw carpets and shoes. Under the surprised eyes of the newcomer, he calmly continued to do it.
Everyone wants to make their nest cleaner and more comfortable. So it evolved into a straw carpet woven by all the staff, and everyone had a straw carpet mat and a pillow. As long as the cotton mentioned by the sacrifice is brought in, they will all have quilts next year.
The night went by, and when the new arrivals woke up in the morning, there were already many people outside the house, some removing the snow from the roof, some washing their faces, and some queuing up to go to the toilet.
"Ah, why can't you go to the toilet outside" was about to squat in the snow to go to the toilet Light Tribal Warrior. But the people of the tribe were stopped.
"Because it's unhygienic, the small house outside each house can go on and you go there"
"What's this, then I'll go farther" For people who can usually see the excrement of beasts everywhere in the field. It's a bit of a mystery to be hygienic.
"No! Where do you have to go?" knowing that it would not make sense for a while, the persuading clansmen simply said the effect of feces.
"What, collect manure to grow food?" The man raised his voice in shock, although they were not very hygienic and defecated openly, but they had to eat food grown with feces, and he felt disgusted to forgive him.
The tribesmen made a fuss at him and rolled their eyes, "Don't you see that there is a sign of feces, and the grass grows better in other places than in other places?"
The man lowered his head and thought about it, as if it was the case, the vegetation in the place where the tribesmen often went to defecate was indeed much taller, and the man was persuaded to line up in the small house honestly.
He looked closely, and some of the people of the house carried the wooden bucket with the dung to a large pit with a stick, and poured all the excrement into the pit. He looked at it curiously, and his face was instantly smoky. Well, he shouldn't be curious.
According to the person who poured the goods, these are all kinds of garbage collected, piled together and fermented, and then used as fertilizer to apply to crops after the land is cleared next year, which will make the crops grow taller and stronger, and bear more fruits.
This is the point of the sacrificial theory. They have to rely on it if they want to eat delicious food. So now the people are very concerned about everyone's "feces"
The man didn't know what he was thinking, and he stood on the edge of the pit, letting all kinds of "scents" wrap around him.
Breakfast is a tapioca yam paste, with soaked bamboo shoots, after eating enough for the whole day. In the past, their warriors only had two meals a day, not to mention ordinary clansmen, but now after three meals a day, each clansman has grown some flesh visibly. Physical fitness has improved a lot.
The warriors of the Light Tribe have to go back to pick up the rest of the tribesmen, and the rest of the people stay here, and now the people of the Bei tribe have to bring food back, and the Ji tribe has also sent dozens of people over to see if the priest needs them to help. The three teams set off on a snowy morning.
"It's so warm to wear these!" The people of the Light Tribe and the Bei Tribe all changed into the same clothes as the Ji Tribe, only with less material, but they were also very good, and the torso, joints and feet were wrapped in fur. You can't feel the chill in the snow.
"These are the merits of the sacrifice" The people of the Ji tribe thought of Li Yue when they mentioned these, and everyone was proud of themselves.
"Yes! Yes, "The Light Tribe and the Bei Tribe have seen so many changes, all of which have been made by this sacrifice, and their hearts have extended their love and worship for Li Yue."
Such people must have been sent by God to save them.
