Chapter 187: Oversized Chestnut
Tongzi consciously fell for a big fool, and he was reluctant to take the initiative to deal with the host for many days, wanting the host to speak first and take the opportunity to save some face.
However, the tribe first held a funeral for the deceased clansmen, and was busy with the big matter of stockpiling grain, Zhu Yuanyuan couldn't be idle at all, and he fell asleep every night after barely completing his daily study tasks, but he didn't have time to find a careful eye.
It is getting closer and closer to the day when Dawu calculates that the snow season will come, and the people in the tribe no longer run into the depths of the forest, but only clean up the beasts near the tribe, the work is easy, and Zhu Yuanyuan, who has been tanned for a few degrees, can finally take a breath.
Well, the weather is getting colder and colder, so let's go to the hot springs to relieve fatigue.
was making a plan in his heart, the second brother Zhu Yongmeng rubbed over cheekily, and said with a smile, "Sister, your second sister-in-law has been tired lately and has no appetite, you can see if there are any appetizing snacks and make some for her to taste."
Zhu Yuanyuan shook his head quickly, "No."
"If you deny it slowly, I'll believe it," Zhu Yong protested unhappily.
"Hmph," Zhu Yuanyuan jumped a few meters away, widening the distance between him and his second brother, and expressed his dissatisfaction with his actions.
Zhu Yong was stunned, "What do you mean?"
"It's not interesting," Zhu Yuanyuan pouted, "Since you have a daughter-in-law, how can you still have my sister in your eyes, and you will only think of me after eating dried meat and fruits."
The big ones always squeeze the small ones, why!
"How come," Zhu Yongmeng explained with a sneer, "Recently, the tribe has been busy, and I don't have much time, so I will often take the Honghong family to play with you when I am free."
Zhu Yuanyuan looked up to the sky and rolled his eyes, "I'm too lazy to cook, let's take my sister-in-law home to eat!"
The second brother looked at it carefully, who couldn't see it.
"What's that~" Zhu Yong touched the back of his head violently, "It's a good brother and sister to see through it or not."
"If it weren't for my brother, I wouldn't be too lazy to take care of you," Zhu Yuanyuan sighed helplessly, "I made some dried hawthorn fruit a few days ago, and I went back to give some to my second sister-in-law."
Zhu Yongmeng smiled and praised, "My sister is generous."
"Don't come to this set," Zhu Yuanyuan smirked a few times and continued to move a few steps away, "Don't affect *** life."
"It's almost cleaned up, what's the point...... Whew~" Zhu Yongmeng suddenly screamed, his right foot shrank up, and he jumped on the spot with his left leg, "It hurts, something pierced my foot."
Zhu Yuanyuan looked to the ground, the culprit was a big balloon with spikes, almost as big as her fist, a little familiar, bent down and pinched a thorn to pick it up and looked at it carefully, "It's a bit like a chestnut, but the chestnut is so big?"
It's not impossible.
The probability of mutation of animals and plants in the orc world is quite high, once the mutation occurs, the body will become two or three times larger, fortunately, the plant will not be aggressive after mutation, and the most fruit will not taste good after it becomes larger.
Zhu Yuanyuan liked to eat chestnuts very much in his previous life, and his family was reluctant to buy them, so he could only go to the mountains to pick them up.
The egg-sized spike ball, peeled off, is a hemispherical or flat-spherical fruit, crispy and sweet when eaten raw, and the powder is glutinous when cooked, and it tastes great.
I just don't know what the mutated chestnut tastes like.
"Sister, what are you looking at," Zhu Yong asked curiously.
Zhu Yuanyuan raised the thorn ball in his hand, "Look at this, have you seen it?" Can you eat it?"
"I've seen it, isn't it a big thorn ball," Zhu Yongmeng's brows furrowed so much that he could almost kill a fly, "It's very stabbing, who dares to mouth."
"Well, peel it off and take a look, maybe you can eat it," Zhu Yuanyuan took down the bamboo basket he was carrying, took out a stone knife from it, and carefully pried the shell open, revealing four or five semi-circular or oblate nuts, and suddenly looked forward to it.
In addition to the large point, both the shell and the shape are the same as the chestnut, and I am sure that I have really picked up a treasure.
The next thing to verify is whether the nuts are poisonous, as long as they can be eaten, there will be a new reserve grain in the tribe.
"Second brother," Zhu Yuanyuanchong still muttered and asked, "You go and help me catch a rat beast, if you want to live, I'll use it for experimentation."
"No problem."
Zhu Yongmeng once saw his sister looking for it
When the new food is fed to the rat beast, it is said that it is fed for a few days, and the rat beast must be poisonous when it dies, and it is not poisonous if it is still alive, and it can be eaten with confidence.
In fact, the old people in the clan are also like this when picking mountain fruits, birds or animals can eat and can pick them, and they have to pay attention to the dense hanging on the branches without the interest of beasts, either the taste is extremely bad, or poisonous.
I understand the reason, but I didn't think that I could catch small animals to test poison before.
The rat beast is small in size, the taste is not good, but the movement is agile, it is more difficult to catch, and few people will catch it when the prey is sufficient, Zhu Yongmeng took a lot of effort to catch one, and stuffed it under his sister's nose like a treasure.
Zhu Yuanyuan took a few steps back and said with a little disgust, "It's so ugly, you make a rattan pocket and put it up."
"How do I make it up when I catch the rat beast," Zhu Yong asked with a wooden face, "Why don't you take it first?"
"Uh~ Then I'll make it up," Zhu Yuanyuan was absolutely unwilling to touch the gray rat beast.
Zhu Yongmeng nodded with satisfaction, "Okay."
The two reached a consensus, and Zhu Yuanyuan went to pull a few thick vines suitable for weaving rattan pockets, and inquired while working, "Second brother, do you know where there is a big thorn ball? Why haven't I seen it?"
If she had been around, she would have seen it a long time ago, where would she have waited until now.
"Yes," Zhu Yongmeng remembered well, "It's a little far from here, I'll pick some later."
If they were sure they could eat it, they had to hurry up and get it back.
"Mm-hmm, pick a little more," Zhu Yuanyuan said with a smile, "I'll make you something to eat if I can."
It is known that ninety percent of the large thorn masses may be oversized chestnuts, and there is a high probability that they are non-toxic.
And fried chestnuts are fragrant, I was reluctant to buy them in my previous life, so I could only try to make them myself, but I had a little experience.
After finding new food, the tribe will organize people to pick it, and then save it, and then distribute it to everyone when necessary.
There are tens of thousands of people in the tribe, and they can't eat anything.
However, everything she picked before the results came out belonged to her family, and she had to stock up on it as soon as possible.
"No problem, isn't it just a matter of a little more effort," Zhu Yongmeng nodded again and again, and felt that it was wrong in an instant, "I haven't eaten anything before, how do you know it's delicious?"
Zhu Yuanyuan secretly called himself bad, he didn't pay attention to say that he was bald, and he had to find a way to go back.
Pregnant!
"Although I haven't eaten it, it looks beautiful and must be delicious," Zhu Yuanyuan was hard and concave, "I have made so many delicious foods, and I have a lot of experience, so listen to me."
Beast God bless, don't overturn.
Fortunately, the orcs have a simple living environment and simple thoughts, and Second Brother Zhu is easily persuaded, "Hehe, then I need to pick some more."
After the day's clean-up work, Zhu Yongmeng pulled his eldest brother and went to pick up the big thorns with a roll of animal skin bags, and moved back more than 3,000 catties back and forth twice, all of which were stacked on the second floor of the red brick house.
Zhu Yuanyuan was dumbfounded, and couldn't help but give a thumbs up to the second brother, "Amazing!"
