199. Pickling
For the sake of safety, Lin Qian kept instructing the mutant vines not to devour flesh and blood easily, even if an animal took the initiative to attack it, it was best not to devour it if it was killed.
Although the consciousness of the mutant vine was very hazy, instinctively it was very afraid of Lin Qian's breath, so the vine remembered it cowardly.
It's not that Lin Qian deliberately prevented the mutant vines from having one more way to eat, but that the spirit plants that gave birth to consciousness like the mutant vines were too rare and precious, and they had to be taken seriously.
You must know that since he had eaten the spirit fruit, he had seen dozens of spirit plants, but there was only one mutant vine consciously!
If nothing else, let's just say that the spirit plants in the secret realm of the Snow Mountain have a higher degree of evolution than the mutant vines, and the spiritual power contained is also richer, but those obviously stronger spirit plants have no birth consciousness, and some have not even evolved the means of attack and defense.
There are only a few crystal flowers that contain toxins that grow like a sea of flowers, and most of the spirit plants seem to have simply evolved into spirit plants, just to bear spirit fruits.
Lin Qian didn't know much about the evolution of plants, and there were too many blanks, so he didn't know how the spirit plant evolved, so he could only be more careful, he could only try to ensure that the evolution direction of the mutated vines was correct, instead of risking it for a little flesh energy.
The mother panda who has smeared the animal skin here shook off the vine, and threw it away when it was used up, but fortunately, the mutated vine was not yet fully conscious, and it would not feel too much, otherwise it would definitely have to smoke this bear.
The mother panda's plush paws were covered with a thick layer of bumpy stone bumps, and then a pair of front paws grabbed the animal skin and began to rub it.
This is the ability of Mother Panda, which is able to cover her body with rock armor. The uneven claws rubbed the hides rolled with vine juice.
Soon, a dozen hides were kneaded, received in rattan baskets, and brought down the stream to be washed, and when they hung on the branches, there was not a trace of fat or flesh left.
Looking at the giant panda standing up and spreading out pieces of animal skins to dry, the mountain wind involuntarily stopped the movements in his hands, although he had seen it many times, but the boy still found it very interesting.
It is not difficult for the giant panda mother to stand up, or rather, the beasts here can do it, and they can walk in this position, but this posture is not comfortable, so when they don't need it, they won't do it at all.
It's like a good person has to crawl and move, and his brain is almost pumped.
After a few glances, the mountain breeze came back to his senses, and he hurriedly smeared the meat thrown into the bucket with white salt.
Under the leadership of Lin Qian, a production chain has been formed on this side of the creek, Lin Qian and Courage cut meat slices and strips, and chipmunks and mountain winds took red pandas to wipe salt.
Although the chipmunk has strength, its physique is too small, and it is not easy to pull up the two small paws, so the little guy is mainly responsible for sprinkling salt, and the mountain wind and the red panda are responsible for turning the meat slices, and the salt is evenly sprinkled on both sides of the piece of meat and piled into the bucket piece by piece.
Don't look at the red panda all day long, it only sells cuteness, it is very numb to do things, and the little paws are hooked one by one, and the speed is much faster than the mountain wind.
After all the meat was marinated, Lin Qian asked the giant panda mother to knead it, and he didn't need to make too much effort, just squeeze the blood and water to let the salt taste in.
No, this kind of work is only suitable for the mother panda, because its rock armor covers the hair, and there will be no problem of the hair falling in.
As for the other beasts, no, the big ones are hairy, and when they put their claws in, they rub their hair.
Red pandas and chipmunks lost their fur when they helped wipe the salt, let alone stretched out their paws.
It's better not to eat the hair or not, Lin Qian asked himself if he was still a tiger cub who paid attention to the quality of life.
After kneading, the giant panda mother put the bucket of marinated meat slices into the shed, and then the chipmunk asked the mother to make a bunch of ice cubes and stacked them back, the weather was so hot, even in the shade of the trees, there was almost no difference in the shed, how hot it should be.
Mom's spiritual power is very sufficient, and more than a dozen buckets are all frozen, and there is still a trace of ice ability left in it, ensuring that the ice cubes can last for 5 hours.
After finishing the work, the red panda squatted next to the mountain wind, and the little guy sat on the grass with a humble head, his round eyes looked forward to the mountain wind and fire, and the horns of his mouth were about to flow out.
Shanfeng couldn't help but reach out and touch its little head, leaned closer and whispered, "Roasting a deer today will definitely make you hungry." ”
"Huh~~~" The swarthy eyes lit up, and the red panda immediately happily circled around the mountain wind.
Since eating the barbecue, the little guy likes the barbecue, the panda is a carnivore, don't look at the usual raw meat it doesn't like to eat, but the aroma of the barbecue is very like, even if it's just a barbecue smeared with salt, the little guy also eats with relish.
If it weren't for the small size of the little guy, he could eat two or three slices in one meal, otherwise Lin Qian really wouldn't dare to let the red panda eat like this.
Although Lin Qian would let the mountain breeze barbecue from time to time, since the cumin seasoning was gone, the tiger father and tiger mother did not like to eat it, and the courage and the giant panda mother did not like to eat it, they felt that eating dry barbecue meat was not as delicious as eating tender raw meat.
If they feel the need to replenish the salt, the four spirit beasts will flush the salt water to replenish it, or lick the salt directly.
Mom likes barbecue very much, like the red panda, the big white tiger is the same as the red panda, even if it is salt barbecue, it is fragrant, in fact, these two just like the taste of barbecue, very fragrant~
Lin Qian also eats barbecue, he is not a picky eater, but compared to raw meat, cooked meat will make him feel more alive, so he will let the mountain breeze barbecue every once in a while.
And the mountain wind, needless to say, people must eat cooked meat.
Even when Lin Qian doesn't want to eat barbecue, the mountain wind also wants to eat barbecue, but if he eats it himself, he usually doesn't burn the fire, but directly puts it on the stone slab and roasts it in the sun.
It's not that the mountain wind is afraid of trouble, but the weather is too hot, the teenagers who grew up under the red flag have a fire prevention cognition, and everyone is responsible for forest fire prevention.
And in such a dense forest, once there is no way to extinguish the fire, it will be a devastating disaster, especially now that the other side of the river is eaten up, this side is burned again, and he is a sinner.
Lin Qian didn't know what Shan Feng thought, otherwise he would definitely let the young man use fire with confidence.
Their bunch of third-level spirit beasts are not vegetarians, they are really on fire, and it will definitely be no problem to extinguish the fire as soon as possible. Not to mention anything else, even Tiger Dad can bury the flames directly by digging the soil.
However, it is impossible for the mountain breeze to say this idea, so the slate barbecue has to continue to eat.
Although there are only animals around, Shan Feng is still very satisfied with his current life, now he doesn't have to worry about the danger that will come at any time, and he doesn't have to worry about starvation, although the food is like that, but it's fresh, don't worry about eating bad stomach.
And who can be as comfortable every day as he is, and can also have a national treasure?
This kind of life, the kind that the mountain wind before is unimaginable, and I will never dream of it.
The more he recalls his precarious life in the ruins of the city, the more grateful he is for leaving the city.
Lin Qian naturally has no regrets about leaving Shanfeng as a human now, although he has raised one more person, but Shanfeng's food is about the same as that of chipmunks, and he doesn't need food at all.
In addition to food, the mountain breeze doesn't need to take care of anything else, plus the things that can be done every day, the benefits of joining the mountain wind actually outweigh the disadvantages for this group, at least for now, all the actions of the mountain wind bring benefits, and there are no drawbacks.
In fact, there are many opportunities for reconciliation in this world, but it is difficult to predict whether they can seize them and make decisions.
Whether it is a beast or a human, every decision made is a cause and effect, maybe good or bad, and we can only wait for the verification of time.
The pickled slices of meat were brought out after the sun went down, and the chipmunks processed the vines pulled from the forest and tied them to the trunks of the trees to make ropes to hang the slices.
Lin Qian and the tiger mother poked the meat slices with the slender and tough weed branches one by one, compared to the pickling work, the work of hanging the meat slices was really a little difficult for a group of beasts.
When the sun just went down, the mountain wind could still help to get it, and when the sky darkened, the boy raised a fire to illuminate it, no way, he was just an ordinary human cub, and he didn't have the ability to see at night.
The sudden drop in temperature at night is like the rapid evaporation of water vapor during the day, and in the blink of an eye, the forest is cold.
Fortunately, the warmth of the fire dispelled some of the chill, and the mountain wind was afraid of freezing, so I felt that I had gone back to wear an animal skin coat.
With Lin Qian, there is naturally no shortage of animal skins, and the beasts are not stingy, and they have given a lot of good animal skins in the mountain wind.
The bad animal skins are made into animal skin bags and the like, and the animal skins that can be used to make clothes are warm and soft enough, and the sewing is of course done by the mountain wind himself.
The finished product made by the teenager who sewed clothes for the first time is a little funny, but it can be worn when worn, and after practicing a few times, the clothes and pants made now are all wearable, and there is no longer a problem of pulling across or a long and a short, but it is impossible to look good, it is just the degree to which it can be worn.
Sewing needlework is naturally made, and chipmunks don't collect needlework and thread in supermarkets.
The needle used by the upper hand now is a bone needle, which is ground out with the help of chipmunks, and the teeth of the little guy are even the bones of the spirit beast as a snack to gnaw, and the ordinary animal bones are very simple, and the two front teeth are grinded together, and a bone needle with a diameter of 1.5 mm and a length of 4 cm is grinded out.
It's just that when drilling pinholes, the little guy has some numb claws, and when he looks at his little paws, he always feels that this thing will break if he pokes it.
Sure enough, the chipmunk broke the bone needle when he poked the tip of his claw for the first time, but it was still usable, and it was only half a centimeter broken.
But the chipmunks didn't dare to get it now, for fear that the things they had worked so hard to grind out would be gone.
The little guy went to find Lin Qian first, and then went down in a circle, and finally poked the tiger mother in disgust.
Don't look at the big tiger's claws, they are very sharp, and the tiger mother's control of spiritual power is very subtle and in place, the tip of its claw only touched the bone needle and did not poke, but used a trace of spiritual power to penetrate the bone needle.
Although it is only a bone needle, in this small matter, Shan Feng has an improved understanding of the beasts living together, and every one of them here is not something he can compete with.
Especially the tigers, he can't even fill the gap between people's teeth with a sliding shovel.
Oh, maybe the tigers will still dislike him for not having two taels of meat, and he doesn't even have a chance to fill in the gaps between his teeth.
As for the thread, it is indeed more troublesome than making a needle. Although there is no ready-made silk thread, there are a lot of raw materials, such as hemp and cotton in this forest, as long as you look carefully, you can find raw materials.
It's a bit tortured in the process of rubbing the thread, and it's really hard for a teenager to rub it with bare hands, fortunately there are chipmunks and red pandas to help, otherwise this thread will definitely be rough and can't be rubbed out, and the pinhole of the bone needle is afraid that it can't be penetrated.
After having a needle and thread, it is not only to let the mountain wind make clothes to wear, but also let the chipmunks take out the peppermunks and sew them into bags.
The animal skin bag is mainly intended to be used for jerky, and it is okay to use a wooden basket or something, but it is a bit simple, and the conditions are naturally better packaged.
The needlework of the mountain breeze has just started, fortunately, the sewing of the bag is relatively simple, even if the line is crooked, it will not affect the use, as long as it is sewn twice to ensure that there will be no loopholes.
On the tiger's side, there was an orderly progression, while there was some chaos on the human side.
…………
Liang.
"Amer, are we really going to join the army?" Ah Xu was a little unhappy.
He knew that the military in Liangcheng was not bad, and he had not oppressed ordinary people too much, but it was only relatively speaking, compared with peacetime, the military in Liangcheng almost controlled the life and death of ordinary people, they guarded the city, and they also forcibly required ordinary people to work and live according to their rules.
Ordinary people who are not cared for by the supernatural are laborers in Liangcheng.
Coolies, every day they have to go to work in the places arranged by the military, and then get food for a day, and the rest have nothing.
Ah Xu is not dissatisfied with the military, in troubled times, ordinary people can live, and it is already a very good life to be able to get food through labor.
And the oppression of rank, he has no right to speak at all, because as a supernatural person, he is also one of the levels that press on the heads of ordinary people.
However, he still felt a little disgusted by the concept of joining the military and being under jurisdiction.
Amer didn't know what he was thinking, but in the current situation, if he didn't join the military, he might be difficult to gain a foothold in the future.
(ps: Explain ~.)
Ah Mo, Ah Xu, and Yaoyao Ah Fu will not join the protagonist group, and the author wrote them to show the development progress of the human side, which can be regarded as a branch line.
Lin Qian's side will not have much contact with humans, and accepting the mountain wind will not change anything, the positioning of the mountain wind is only a member of the group, and the task of contacting humans in the future will be his. )
