Chapter 35: The Valley of Treasures
Back in the cave, Jacodao suppressed his excitement and asked Tarens to wash the cauldron in the cave, fill it with water, put in several herbs, and burn it with firewood.
The pieces of meat were cut into small strips, soaked in cold water, and washed repeatedly to wash away all the blood.
At this time, the water in the cauldron was also boiling, and a strange fragrance began to spread through the cave, causing the survivors to swallow their saliva.
At this time, the survivors' attention was completely absorbed by Jia Kedao.
As the cleaned strips of meat were poured into the cauldron, a pungent stench spread again.
Jia Kedao nodded, this smell is obviously different from the smell of stinky wart snake lizards, but after the herbal water is mixed with the meat strips, the meat strips are forced out of the smell, and the two are combined to form this smell.
After burning the strips of meat, Jacodao asked Otis and Tarence to drain the water from the pot, wash it, and then put the water back on the burn.
This time, after the water boiled, Jia Kedao put some herbs similar to ginger and garlic into the pot, then put in several found marinades, boiled for more than half an hour, and then put in a bag of rice and some wild vegetables he found in his backpack.
As time passed, a rich aroma of marinade wafted out of the pot.
With the civilization process here, it is impossible to know what is called braised vegetables and what is called braised materials, just smelling the fragrance of braised vegetables that have never been smelled, the saliva on the corners of the mouths of these survivors are flowing all over the ground.
Even the little girl Klaas, who had just been rid of the toxin, looked at the cauldron with straight eyes.
After waiting for another ten minutes or so, Jacodao asked Otis to extinguish the fire and let the survivors line up to get it.
When the wooden bowls were filled with braised pork porridge, the survivors began to devour them.
Jia Kedao also added a bowl to himself, and after trying to eat it, he frowned, but there was a little surprise in his heart.
After using various herbs to get rid of the smell in the stinky wart snake lizard meat, the stinky wart snake lizard meat was not delicious, but Jia Kedao added a ten-year-old mountain ginseng to it.
It was meant to add a bit of vitality to these frail survivors.
Who would have thought that when combined with the flesh of this stinky wart snake lizard, the effect produced would even benefit Jia Kedao.
After eating, the stomach is warm, and streams of heat begin to flow along the meridians.
If you are an ordinary person, these auras that are stored in the heat flow will gradually be lost, and only a very small part of them can nourish and strengthen the body.
But for Jacodao, it's a different story.
After noticing this, Jia Kedao immediately sat down cross-legged, pinched a handprint with both hands, and silently recited a scripture in his heart.
After a long time, Jia Kedao got up, just such a bowl of meat porridge was worth three days of penance.
You know, if on the earth, you use the best pink lamb and lamb, plus old ginseng and other medicinal herbs to make meat porridge, eat a bowl, at most half a day of penance, the meat is different, the effect is completely different.
And until nightfall, Jia Kedao only felt slightly hungry.
The effect is very different from the previous after eating.
In this way, Jia Kedao can be regarded as understanding the reason why he used to be hungry easily even if he ate meat.
Ordinary meats or grains contain too few nutrients.
The so-called turning essence into qi is to absorb the essence in the food and transform it into one's own qi, in terms of Jia Kedao's current absorption capacity, even if ordinary meat and grains are eaten in a bucket, it will not take long to be digested cleanly.
To say, Jia Kedao's plan was successful.
Just such a porridge made the survivors who were hungry and hungry during this time worry and fear, and they had initial trust in Jia Kedao.
There were about 1780 survivors who fled from the town, and there were only 84 people in the cave.
Among the eighty-four survivors were forty-three young men, thirty young women, five elderly people, and six children.
This is inevitable, and young people are the least likely to be damaged in their fugitive life.
Of the survivors, the ones who were most convinced of Jacodao were Tarence and his daughter Klaas.
Tarence has the highest prestige among this group of survivors, and to be honest, on the way to escape, if it weren't for Tarrens's several shots, I'm afraid these survivors would have suffered more casualties, and even a group annihilation.
With Tarence's help, it wasn't difficult for Jacodao to command the group of survivors.
The next day, Jia Kedao took the men among the survivors to cut off the flesh of all the stinky wart snakes and lizards outside, used herbs to remove the smell, and then smeared some salt and roasted them over a fire to make dried meat that was easy to preserve.
This is the grain that Jia Kedao has stockpiled for them.
Jacodao said that the salt was originally intended to be used as currency.
In this area, salt is the circulating equivalent in addition to gold coins.
But as Otis had done at the beginning, the survivors saw the snow-white salt smeared on the pieces of flesh, as if they had been stabbed or that their property had been robbed.
It's too extravagant!
This is the unanimous opinion of the survivors.
The survivors were busy making zuò jerky, while Jacodao took the time to take Odis around the valley a few times, surveying the valley as a whole.
This valley covers an area of about 6,000 acres, which is about four square kilometers, and in addition to some trees, vines, and various herbs in the valley, there are no fierce beasts like the stinky wart snake lizard.
Basically, they are ordinary creatures such as rabbits, snakes, and voles, and near a cliff, Jia Kedao also saw a group of wild boars, write it down, and send someone to catch it in the future.
In addition to the valley mouth, there is a smaller valley mouth in the back, but there is a large forest outside.
For these survivors, or for other humans, large areas of unopened forest mean danger.
In many forests, monsters like the stinky wart snake lizard are not overlords at all, they are just at the bottom of the upper level.
After Jia Kedao calculated, he planned.
An observation post was set up on the big tree at Taniguchi to prevent people or wild beasts from sneaking in, and of course, for insurance, Taniguchi was also going to build a row of wooden fences to fill the city wall, while the small Taniguchi behind was planned to pile up some stones directly to block it temporarily, and then talk about it when it was able to open.
The mouth of the valley is blocked before and after, although it is not very reliable, but this small valley can be regarded as the temporary foundation of Jia Kedao.
In the following days, vigorous construction began in the valley.
