Chapter 9 Salt
By the time they came out of the cave in the evening, the orcs had already lit a bonfire in the central square.
Di Mu received countless teasing glances along the way, and touched the corner of his broken mouth with a toothache. A little angry, he reached out and put his hand on the tender meat on the side of Wolf Yu's waist. And then... Screwed it hard.
Then I heard Wolf Yu's "hiss~", turned his head and looked at Di Mu aggrievedly, as if asking, "Crooked~ What's wrong?" ”
Di Mu put down his evil little hand and examined whether he was too ungentle for a second.
The small movements between the two naturally did not escape the beasts with excellent eyesight and hearing. They all looked like they were all concentrating on the barbecue, but each of them had their ears pricked up.
"Di Mu! Come on! I roasted meat for you. You don't have to look up to know that it's Lan's big voice, but she's enthusiastic. Lan's side is still a sprout that looks soft and cute. Just now, Lan suddenly shouted as if he was scared of the little rabbit, and Di Mu saw Miao's body tremble.
Sideways: "Wolf Yu, is Miao a rabbit clan?" ”
Wolf Yu glanced at her suspiciously: "How do you know?" ”
Forehead... She could say she could guess.
Walking over and looking at the roasted, wood, meat, and charcoal that were still charred, Di Mu pressed the corner of his eyes that wanted to beat: "Thank you, you can eat first." Wolf Yu has a large amount of rice, I will roast it myself in a while, after all, I have to roast it for Wolf Yu. ”
"Okay." Hearing Di Mu say this, Lan directly picked up the barbecue and gnawed it, still feeling sorry for Di Mu for not being able to eat such a delicious thing.
Di Mu asked Wolf Yu to get a piece of barbecue and find a barbecue grill, and he came to Wolf Yu's ear and said something to him halfway.
Di Mu avoided everyone's gaze and took out a dagger, and quickly divided the raw meat he got back into palm-sized pieces. The orcs have a great appetite, and females like Xiang Miao can eat two or three pieces of barbecue meat the size of two palms in one meal, and the males eat more.
So they bake a big piece every time. But doing so can easily lead to blackened skin and blood on the inside.
With Di Mu's movements, the barbecue turned over on the fire, and the appearance gradually became golden. Then the orcs saw the returning wolf Yu sprinkle something on the roast meat, and in an instant an unknown fragrance wafted everywhere.
What does it taste like? They had never smelled such a fragrant smell, and they felt that they could eat an extra piece of barbecue after smelling this fragrance!
Seeing that there were more and more orcs coming around, and there was gradually a tendency to be unable to stand, Wolf Yu's face became darker and darker. These are the guys who want to come and grab meat from him!
Granny Hua is too old to move, so she usually asks people to send her food directly to the cave to eat, and today she came to the central square because she had to make a welcome ceremony for Di Mu.
At this time, Granny Hua came over directly with Shui and Wolf Jie.
"Cub, how did you manage to make the barbecue so fragrant?" Granny Hua knew that since Di Mu was doing this in public, she must not be afraid of everyone knowing. On the contrary, it was a good opportunity for her to quickly integrate into the tribe. After all, no matter what society you are in, food is a magic weapon to regulate interpersonal relationships.
Shui and Wolf Jie were also curious, they had eaten barbecue for most of their lives, and they never thought that barbecue would become so fragrant.
Looking at the dense circles of orcs around him, some of them still had suspicious saliva on the corners of his mouth, Di Mu smiled dumbly.
In fact, she just asked Wolf Yu to get a piece of salt, adding salt to the barbecue is a very common thing for modern people, but for the orcs who have never tasted salt all year round, this is undoubtedly a fatal temptation.
"There's some salt in the roast, and it's this white crystal." As he spoke, he raised the salt cube in his hand.
"Isn't this a bitter stone? I tasted it secretly, isn't it bitter? Some orcs wondered.
Bitter Stone? It's quite apt, but unpurified salt crystals are not bitter.
"That's right, I found a few pieces in the corner when I visited the tribe, and I just let Wolf Yu take them and grind them into powder and spread them evenly on the barbecue, which can add a little saltiness to the barbecue."
After a pause, he raised his voice again: "Eating food with salt every day can help improve the body's immunity, which is simply the body's ability to resist illness." ”
"If the body lacks salt for a long time, it may cause dizziness, nausea, vomiting, weakness in the limbs, and even death in severe cases."
Hearing Di Mu say this, the orcs turned their heads one after another, Granny Hua cleared her throat and signaled the beasts to be quiet, and looked at Di Mu eagerly: "Yes, there have been beasts in the tribe before, and everyone didn't know what was going on at first, but slowly some beasts found that the symptoms of regular reference to animal blood would improve." ”
"Beast blood contains a certain amount of salt that can indeed alleviate this condition, but the raw animal blood is not sterilized at high temperature, and there will be small insects invisible to the naked eye, and drinking too much will cause stomach aches, etc., it is not recommended for orcs to cite it."
Then Di Mu saw the beasts led by Wolf Yu nodded silently, and looked at her silently, looking very well-behaved like a primary school student sitting in the classroom.
With a sigh, Di Mu resigned himself to explaining some basic hygiene knowledge to them.
The orcs all pricked up their ears, and even some of the beasts slowly held their breath unconsciously, as if they were afraid that their breathing would interrupt Di Mu's train of thought.
