The next day, Li Yue walked to the cave before dawn, and folded off the ears of wheat and put them in the back basket. Then find a relatively smooth stone ground and crush it with discarded animal bones.

After a few hours, it was only half crushed.

"Forget it, let's boil this part out first" put the milled wheat kernels on the wide leaves, and gently tossed them, a lot of wheat husks drifted away with the wind, and the rest was still most of the wheat grains that had not been cleaned.

The wheat grains that come out are beige, but I don't know what they look like when they are cooked.

Putting away the bag of wheat grains, Li Yue returned to the simple tent and set off with his friends to complete today's task.

In the evening, Li Yue found Feisha.

"Uncle Feisha, I want to see the leader"

Feisha glanced up at Li Yue, sharpening the stone knife in his hand and did not stop. After a while, Feisha stopped what he was doing.

"What are you looking for the leader" Feisha looked at Li Yue, in his eyes, Li Yue was a little different, all kinds of small behavior changes some time ago did not escape his eyes, and secretly said that if he did something unfavorable to the tribe, then he could only solve him, but he didn't expect him to teach the people of the tribe the method of weaving a basket for free. In the dark, Feisha felt that this child was not ordinary. I just don't know what he's going to do next.

"I've found new food to eat," Li Yue opened the leaves in the basket and took out a packet of cooked wheat rice. The pale yellow oval particles stick together, and a sweet fragrance wafts through the nose of the flying sand.

Flying Sand instantly hid his shocked expression, but the excitement of his body betrayed him. Quickly took the thing in Li Yue's hand, put it on the tip of his nose and sniffed it. I picked up some with my hands and put it in my mouth and chewed it, the sweet and soft taste was accompanied by the wheat aroma that the shell was not removed, and I swallowed it smoothly after chewing a few times, which can be said to be suitable for people of any age. Looking down at the remaining lump of food, he resisted the urge to eat it, and nodded to Li Yue.

"Keep up" Feisha carefully held the food, and the wind was blowing under his feet. I don't care if Li Yue can't keep up.

"Okay!" Li Yue wrapped the rest of the leaves and kept up with the pace of the flying sand.

"You're the tree?" The nearest woman seems to have mentioned the child.

Shi Li put down the wheat rice in his hand, and the majestic leader bent down and completely shrouded the thin Li Yue in his shadow.

"Yes! Leader" Li Yue looked up, there was no trace of fear in his eyes.

"Haha! You're not an ordinary kid, tell me, what do you want? "The leader of the Ji tribe was a man in his mid-40s, with a strong build, many scars on his face and body, who had been fighting wild beasts for many years, and in order to protect his people, he was not only empty of force, but also very wise.

For the backpack that appeared in the tribe, it was convenient for the clansmen a lot, and he had already noticed Li Yue.

Now he has found out the food that is said to be able to keep the people of the Ran clan from starving, although this is a great thing, but how Li Yueren thinks about it and how the food comes from, no matter what aspect he thinks about, he thinks deeply.

"Chief! My purpose is not to go hungry and make our tribe better and stronger! "The cow is to blow to the sky, and the words are beautiful! In this way, curiosity can be piqued.

"Oh?" The leader obviously didn't believe him, glanced at Feisha, saw him shake his head, and said, "Then tell me about this thing, where did it come from, and how did it grow it?" ”

"This is what we saw outside the mountain when we went to pick wild vegetables, and there was a small patch of it, and I only transplanted a few dozen plants to plant it."

"Okay, I'll have them all brought back tomorrow."

"You don't have to tear them all away, just break the ears, their seeds should be the ears"

Li Yue never expected a mediocre sentence to attract attention.

Seeing his skillful reaction, Shi Li immediately looked at Li Yue with suspicious eyes.

"You remember the past"

"What?" Li Yue was confused, what did she remember before?

Feisha on the side reminded.

"It's your old tribe," Feisha looked at with the same skeptical and expectant looks.

"No," Li Yue said honestly.

"Okay, then tomorrow I will take back those ears first, and you can go back first today" Shi Li waved his hand in disappointment.

That's the end of it, what does that mean. I can't figure it out with Li Yue behind Zai Feisha, how do they feel that they are more interested in themselves than in that important food? Primitive people are not interested in eating? Can't figure it out, really can't figure it out.

In doubt, he bumped into the flying sand that stopped in front of him.

"Ah, my nose, it hurts!" Li Yue felt fluid flowing out of her nose. Cover your nose inside, it should be a nosebleed, damn primitives, how can the body be like a stone.

"You...... Can't really remember what it used to be? There was a hint of hope in Feisha's eyes.

Li Yue frowned, what does this mean, what is the connection between rare food and me before? Or are they neurotic?

"Uncle Feisha, I really don't remember"

After speaking, Li Yue looked at Feisha, and the hope in his eyes disappeared.

Li Yue: ...... I think it's a neuropathy with paranoia.

Tonight there was no cloud, the moon was very transparent, and the hazy moonlight sprinkled the entire plain, clearly imprinting a large and a small figure on the road.

Feisha sighed.

"Tree, do you know why our tribe can't be strong" Li Yue on the side shook his head, but he thought in his heart that it must not have lit up the technology! Look at the stone tools you all use!

"It's because we lack the wise"

"Wise man?" Li Yue was puzzled, meaning that there was a lack of military divisions?

"Yes, the wise man is like you to weave the basket and make the tribe better through some changes"

That's it?!

"So you mean to doubt that I'm a wise man?" Li Yue blinked, unwilling to believe it, did he think he was a wise man just because of a compilation method? Such a simple thing, aren't you trying to make me!

Li Yue was seriously suspicious, but could not find evidence.

"No, there is no wise man as small as you, if it is so small, it would be a sacrifice, but the sacrifice only appeared a long time ago" Feisha smiled.

"Then you are ......".

"You wouldn't be a disciple of the previous tribe's wise man," Feisha guessed.

"Sorry, I really don't remember, probably maybe not"

Even if Li Yue didn't know it, he didn't deny it, if he had the identity of a wise disciple, he would have a reason to propose various changes in the future.

"Really?" After Feisha's eyes were puzzled for a while, he immediately became convinced in his heart that Li Yue was the disciple of the wise man.

"I think you must be" After all, only a wise man is so powerful. As long as the tribe can survive, it still cares if he is a child or not.

"Okay, so I'm going to pick the ears back tomorrow with those kids?" Now that the chiefs know, they can't wait, and the wheat will have to be eaten by the birds.

"Tomorrow I'll be with you, and all the children will go" Feisha wants to see with his own eyes what these ears of wheat look like, and see if he can find more.

However, as Li Yue guessed, when the next day arrived, the wheat ears were all plagued by a lot, and there was only one basket for the collected ears of wheat, so in order to collect more ears of wheat, they searched around separately.

Because of its proximity to the mountain forest, Li Yue found a lot of bracken at the foot of the mountain, which is worthy of being an ancient plant, and the current bracken is thick and numerous.

Seeing that Li Yue didn't look for ears of wheat, squatting in the fern bushes to pick fern buds, Feisha was puzzled.

"What are you doing with this? Can these also be eaten? "I haven't tried it, but these plants don't even eat insects, so they never try it.

"Yes, this dish is very tasty after boiling it in water once and frying it in fat again."

"Fried? What is frying?"

In the tribe there are currently only boiled and roasted.

"Just roast it on a stone with oil" Li Yue frantically folded the fern table, the crisp and tender green pole was ruthlessly broken, making a crisp sound of crackling. In a few moments, a basket will be full.

"But the tribe doesn't have fat to roast for you" Although Feisha had never eaten it, when he heard that oil was to be used, he said that it was delicious and impossible to make.

"It's okay, take this thing back, just expose it to the sun for a few days, turn it into dried vegetables, and then cook it in soup to make it as delicious, as long as it is not placed in a damp place, you can put it for a long time" About this fern table, there are not only these ways to eat, but at present, they have to be persuaded to pick it back.

"Uncle Feisha, you see winter is coming-"

"Can you replace these with winter dishes?" Needless to say after Li Yue finished speaking, Feisha also knew that the food that could be kept for a long time was the rarest.

"You pick it first, I'll call some people back"

"Uh-huh" Li Yue continued to fight.

During the time when Feisha shouted, Li Yue dug up a fern platform, and sure enough, such a thick fern platform could grow, and the fern roots below were particularly thick, and when he broke one of them, the rich white juice inside flowed out.

This starch foot!

After Feisha came back, Li Yue told him that he was going to dig up the roots, although he seriously suspected that he would take the rhizomes to refine starch for consumption, but when he thought that Li Yue might be a disciple of the wise man, he still cut a lot of roots back.

Li Yue promised Feisha that in a few days, they would be allowed to eat something made of fern root powder.

The fern roots must first be washed, then beaten to produce juice, then precipitated, the sediment is dried, and then prepared with water, fried, or boiled, but it takes a time process.

"Chief, that child" In the only clean and large tent in the tribe, the leader and a few warriors watched the ears of wheat together, and the warriors often went out to hunt, remembering the appearance of the ears of wheat, maybe they had seen it in other places, and even if they hadn't seen it, they would have collected it later and brought it back.

"This thing, that child called it Ears of Wheat, Feisha has been eating it for 2 days without any discomfort, and this food is also sweet, suitable for anyone in our tribe to eat." The leader twisted a bunch of unthreshed tassels and pondered. "After clearing the wasteland, as long as you plan to plant, the harvest will be good. It won't be a few years before the tribe can be fed."

As soon as the words fell, the people in the tent were speechless in shock.

"Fei, have you seen it before in the Great Western Tribe?" Leader Shi Li asked.

"No, most of the food over there is beans, I don't see this" The voice was a man sitting at the end, but this man looked different from the others, his nose was higher, his eyes were deeper, his eyes were pale green, his hair was earthy brown, but there was a scar on the left side of his face that extended to his earlobe.

"Chief, since the big tribes in the west have never seen it, do you really want to do something for this thing? Planting? One of the warriors in the room questioned.

"It's nothing, the kid said that it's okay to just use the women and the old people in the tribe, and the purpose of coming here today is to ask you to just remember this thing and bring it back next time."

"Chief, I wonder why you believe that kid," Fei asked, sitting in the corner. After all, this thing has never even been seen by the big tribes, how does he know about it as a child? And it has to be planted.

Fei was originally a warrior of the western tribe, but because he trusted others too much, he was framed, and his life was almost hanging by a thread, but fortunately, the leader who went out hunting at that time saved him, but he also attracted the pursuit of his original tribe, and for him, he also died 3 warriors of the Ji tribe, and Shi Li not only did not anger him. And believe in him, and put him in the category of warriors. Because he was grateful to Shi Li, he thought more about this tribe than ordinary people.

"Because I think he may be a sacrifice" is a sacrifice, not a wise man, and even less a disciple of a wise man.

Sacrifices are born with magical powers. A wise man is a genius who has wisdom after tomorrow.

"What! Sacrifice? The big man sitting couldn't help but scream, and Lian Fei opened his mouth in shock.

This expensive thing is not something to be said casually.

"Are you sure, Chief?"

"Chief, how do you know?"

"Leader ......" at this time is like the gossip paparazzi of later generations. Chatter, it is necessary to ask for an understanding. They all stared at Shi Li.

Shi Li took out a bowl of gray things and put it on the stone seat in front of him.

"Come, taste it, eat it, and then talk about it."

"What is this? Chief, you're too stingy, there are so many of us, you just have such a small bowl? ”

"Well, at least there's got to be some meat."

There were only about 10 pieces in a bowl, and they were all taken up in an instant.

"Hey, what is this, it tastes a little weird, but it's delicious" The big man's name is Da Niu, he tasted the taste of his mouth, grabbed the bowl with one hand, and licked it with a gesture.

The rest of the people looked at Shi Li with their eyes and said, is there anything else in this thing?

"There are a lot of things" are brothers who usually fight together, and Shi Li knows what they want to express.

"What! A lot, the leader quickly take it out, this thing is still strange and delicious" Da Niu heard this, and put down the bowl in his hand. Looking around, they wondered where to put the rest.

"That's all there is to it today, but guess what this thing is made of" Shi Li ignored the twittering bull. Look at a room of warriors.

"What do you do? I don't participate in the harvesting and I don't know" At this time, the big cow shaved his teeth, like a ruthless scumbag.

The others were not as scoundrels as him, and they all thought for a while and said they didn't know.

"You can see ferns everywhere from the time you see it, this is their roots, the food that is milled out and precipitated, and its shoots are also edible, and they can be kept for a long time after being dried, which means that in winter, we have one more food"

"What? It's just made of rotten grass that can't be killed! ”

This is a terrible bull, and the toothpicks have all fallen off.

"It's all over the place. As long as you collect more, the tribesmen will be better off in winter" Thinking of the clansmen who starved to death and froze to death every year, many warriors were silent.

Shi Li nodded. Then he said, "But we have been dealing with these for so long, who knows if we can eat them?" Seeing that the tribesmen didn't speak, he said, "The basket that appeared in the tribe was also taught by this child, we see vines every day, and who has the idea of making a basket?" ”

Everyone suddenly realized, no wonder the leader thought that the other party was a sacrifice, and only the sacrifice had this kind of divine power to change nothing. But are sacrifices so easy to find?

"Whatever happens, as long as he does what is good for our tribe. He is the sacrifice of our tribe! If our tribe wants to feed its people, we have to go off the rails to protect ourselves."

"That's right! Our tribe must have the strength, whether he sacrifices or not, he will do it first."

"Make our tribe stronger! You can't just be underestimated anymore."

"Chief, get that kid out and let him quickly find a way to strengthen our race!"

At this time, Li Yue, who was silent all day at the cold fern table, did not feel that the leader had any ambitions, and said happily, "I finally ate familiar food."

I don't know how much to expect from them.
