Dried fruit jam

The hunting team and the guard team carried full loads of salt stones, and the gathering team carried full loads of fruits.

Back at the tribe, the whole tribe became busy again.

The salt stone should be made into coarse salt and fine salt respectively, and the remaining salt after the fruits are distributed should be made into a large amount of dried fruits and a small amount of jam.

Shennong’s infrastructure is not enough to buy sugar. Sugar is the best preservative. Jam will not last long without sugar.

So this year I'll make a little less and just try the flavor.

Apples are crispy, sour and sweet, pears are sweet and juicy, oranges are sweet and sour, and persimmons are soft, sticky and sweet.

Each one is irresistible.

It was the first time for the tribesmen to eat such delicious fruit.

The persimmons are soft and glutinous, and many elderly people like to eat them.

As a result, I had a stomach upset because I ate too much.

Fortunately, he had saved the persimmon stalks, intending to use them as medicine.

Persimmon stalks have antitussive and antidiarrheal effects.

Fortunately, the beastmen were strong and felt much better after drinking water boiled with persimmon stalks a few times, without the need to take other medicinal herbs.

Otherwise he would have to search the whole mountain for antidiarrheal herbs for them.

The uneaten apples are made into dried apples, which are dried in the sun until they turn golden brown. They are sweet and sticky when you eat them.

But after this diarrhea incident, no one dared to be greedy.

Don’t take more than ten tablets at a time, for fear of diarrhea if you eat too much.

Make jam from oranges and persimmons, seal the jars with mud and leaves, and store them in an airtight container.

When eating, open the package and some people scoop it out directly with a spoon, while others mix it in hot water and drink it as sweet water.

The pears were eaten when they were cut into pieces and cooked into pear soup, and there was no way to make anything else out of them.

Small pieces of pear are placed in a clay pot and cooked slowly over low heat, which brings out the sweetness and aroma of the pears.

A sip of pear soup is refreshing and sweet, and it concentrates the essence of the whole pear, leaving a fragrant taste in your mouth.

The pear flesh is stewed until soft and tender, and it tastes so good with a sip of pear soup.

Every time the Mu tribe members finished drinking the pear soup, they felt regretful.

If you could drink a cup of pear soup like this in winter, it would definitely taste delicious.

Unfortunately, the pear cannot be preserved until that time.

Because of the system warehouse, Shen Nong made a lot of jam and kept a lot of pears, which were all piled in the system warehouse.

The system is no longer surprised by the host using the system warehouse as a refrigerator.

He was even considerate enough to move out a lot of salt stones for Shen Nong so that his place would not be so crowded.

[Host, autumn is only seven days away. ]

The system reminded Shen Nong to be prepared to awaken the orcs.

A pile of hay was spread on Shen Nong's kang, with several layers of fine animal skins on top.

He was completely immersed in it, with his hands crossed on his stomach and his index fingers tapping the backs of his hands.

After thinking for a while, he said, "After autumn comes winter, and the meat in the tribe is a bit monotonous."

system:..

The next time it worries about its host, it will be a dog.

——

"Tiger Roar, is there any place to fish here?"

Shen Nong spent the whole night thinking about how to make the tribe have more meat. At the end of the thought, he felt like eating fish and drinking fish soup.

Hu Xiao glanced at Ze who was standing next to Shen Nong and said, "There is a very wide river near the Ze tribe, and there are many big fish in it."

"Have you ever been there to catch it?"

Shen Nong was a little confused. How could he know how big and how many fish there were if he had never caught one?

"Yes, in the past we would go there to catch fish when we had nothing to eat."

Shen Nong smiled and said, "Then let's go there and catch more fish and save them for the winter."

Hu Xiao wanted to refuse because he thought about how bitter the fish tasted, the shell was hard to chew, and the bones inside would get stuck in his throat.

"Priest, the fish is not tasty." Hu Xiao glanced at Ze again and said in a lower voice, "Besides, the people living nearby are the Ze tribe, and the Ze tribe does not allow others to catch fish there."

Shen Nong asked, "Is that river the territory of the Ze tribe?"

If it is someone else's territory, it is indeed not easy for him to catch fish directly.

"Not really." Hu Xiao thought for a while and said, "The Ze Tribe didn't put animal bones on the wooden sign. They had to put these on any place designated as the tribe's territory."

"Where the Ze Tribe is now was previously the Water Tribe. When the Water Tribe was there, they didn't care who went fishing in that river."

"But after the Water Tribe was expelled from the Swamp Tribe three years ago, the Swamp Tribe no longer allowed our tribe to catch fish there, unless we exchanged them for animal skins. The fish tastes so bad, only a fool would exchange them for animal skins."

Shen Nong ignored the question of "the fish tastes so bad" and asked, "Since it's not the territory of the Ze tribe, and they don't allow others to catch fish, then no other tribe will bother them?"

Hu Xiao gave Shen Nong a strange look and said, "Except for our tribe that can't hunt enough food, no one in other tribes would go fishing to eat."

After that, Hu Xiao added: "Even if they go fishing, the Ze tribe won't say anything."

Shen Nong asked: "Why?"

"Because the Ze tribe can't beat them."

The corners of Shen Nong's mouth twitched slightly. This was really a perfect reason.

While Hu Xiao was speaking, he was observing Ze's expression, but Ze remained expressionless.

He didn't know whether Ze was angry or not because he had told the priest about the bad things about the Ze tribe.

After all, Ze was from the Ze tribe before...

For safety reasons, Hu Xiao suggested: "Priest, if you want to eat fish, we can catch them upstream a little further away from the Ze Tribe."

Shen Nong nodded and said, "Then go and call more people."

Hu Xiao went out with a sad face to call for help. When he thought of the bitter smell of the fish, he felt a little uncomfortable in his stomach.

Well, fortunately we now have dried fruits and jams to eat.

After eating fish, you can have a spoonful of jam or a few slices of dried fruit to sweeten your mouth.

Speaking of Ze tribe, Shen Nong turned to look at Ze and asked, "Do you want to go with us?"

Ze nodded, staring at Shen Nong intently, "Wherever the priest goes, I will go."

All right, Shen Nong handed the backpack to Ze, "Carry it, fill it up today."

"good."

When they heard that they were going to catch fish, Tufeng and the others were unwilling to do so.

I remember that they were so hungry that they couldn't even swallow that bite of fish.

Now that they had enough meat to eat and had tasted such delicious fruits, they could not eat fish even more.

But they would obey the priest's words.

The priests wanted to eat fish, so they went and caught the biggest fish.

Maocao also pulled Hushan, Tuhua and a few others mixed in the team with backpacks on their backs, eager to catch more fish for the priest.

Although the priest's taste is a bit strange.

The Ze tribe was not very far from the Mu tribe, and the upper reaches of the river were even closer to the Mu tribe.

It didn't take long before the Mu tribe arrived at their destination.

Hu Xiao and others were preparing to transform themselves into human form and go into the water to catch fish for Shen Nong, but Shen Nong ended up stuffing a basket into their arms.

The shape of this basket is different from the ones they usually carry on their backs.

Some are long and thin, pointed at both ends, bulging in the middle, and one end can be opened.

There is a very tough hemp rope tied to the basket.

"Open the hole, place it by the river, and press it down with stones. Pull up the hemp rope, and be careful not to pull out the fixed basket."

Shen Nong taught them how to use it and then asked them to go into the water.

He looked at the spacious river and thought about fishing.

But there is no fish hook.

I don't know if I can find iron ore.

Shen Nong was daydreaming. After Hu Xiao and the others put the fish basket in place as Shen Nong had instructed, they stayed in the water and started catching fish.

Cat Grass, Rabbit Flower and other fish that have not awakened and cannot swim are all on the shore catching the fish thrown into the water.

Shen Nong watched as tigers, rabbits, cows, cats, sheep…

All trying to catch fish.

This is truly a wonder...

Because Hu Xiao was quite large in size, every time he turned and flapped his wings, the orcs who were close to him would be knocked over or pushed away by the waves.

After a while, there was no one around Hu Xiao, and he was the only big tiger catching fish alone.

Shen Nong stood on the shore watching them splashing in the water. After a long time, he felt bored and suddenly had the urge to play in the water.

He squatted down, scooped up a handful of water with his palm, and splashed it at Ze who was standing beside him.

The water droplets splashed onto Ze's exposed chest, then slowly slid down, passing through the undulating muscles of his abdomen, and finally disappeared into the animal skin around his waist.

Shen Nong's gaze followed the water droplets downwards, and he couldn't help but whistle.

Ze was attracted by Shen Nong's strange whistle, and his handsome eyes stared at Shen Nong cleanly and seriously.

Shen Nong met the other person's gaze, turned his head, and coughed lightly, "Want to learn?"

Ze nodded and replied sincerely, "It sounds good."

It's just a whistle, there's nothing good about it.

After Shen Nong finished complaining, he said to Ze: "I'll teach you."

Ze smiled and nodded vigorously, "Yeah."

Shen Nong looked towards the river, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, wondering why he could be so happy just learning to whistle.

"brush".

There was a ripple on the water surface, and then Shen Nong was splashed with water in the face, and even the loose hair on his forehead was wet.

He wiped his face and then opened his eyes.

I saw Ze squatting on the shore, imitating the way Shen Nong had splashed water on him before.

The water droplets on the tips of his hair fell down on his face, passing across his forehead, nose, and lips.

Ze's gaze followed the water droplets just like Shen Nong's before, and continued to move down until it stopped at Shen Nong's lips.

Shen Nong felt Ze's fiery gaze and frowned slightly. He urged the vines to block Ze's eyes and explained, "Learning to whistle does not require these steps."

Ze's view was blocked by the vines and he couldn't see Shen Nong, and he felt annoyed.

He quickly pulled off the vine, blinked and nodded, "Got it."

"To whistle is to move your lips..."

Just as Shen Nong started to teach the whistle, an angry shout came from not far away, "Who is it?"

When Hu Xiao and others heard the sound, they quickly rushed to the shore and protected Shen Nong.

Shen Nong didn't know when it started, but the first reaction of these orcs when encountering things was to protect him behind them.

Realizing that the orc warriors here were transformed, the orcs who came to patrol also transformed.

Shen Nong still felt some visual impact when looking at the two super big geese and three super big black ducks.

really big..

The leading Super Goose stared at the patterns on the foreheads of Hu Xiao and the others for a long time, then asked, "Wood Tribe?"

"Ze Tribe?"

Hu Xiao also recognized that the pattern on the big goose's head was the unique spiral pattern of the Ze tribe after its transformation.

Super Goose snorted, "You know we are from the Ze Tribe, why don't you leave quickly? Who allowed you to catch fish here?"

The goose's eyes fell on the fish in the basket on the shore, and he emphasized, "Leave the fish. If you want fish, exchange it for animal skins."

Tiger roared with a "hiss" sound from the tip of his nose, "This is not the territory of the Ze tribe."

Super Goose didn't expect Hu Xiao to refute. He had never seen anyone from the Mu tribe dare to speak to the Ze tribe like this before.

He shouted angrily, "Get out of this river!"

Hu Xiao jumped up without saying a word and slapped the arrogant super goose, pressing it to the ground.

The companions of the super goose haven't reacted yet. When did the Wood Tribe become so powerful?

Mao Yun, Tu Feng and others also jumped up, and the remaining goose and three ducks were all pressed to the ground.

The people from the Ze tribe then realized that the orcs from the Mu tribe seemed to have grown very large.

They are level five orc warriors, and their bodies are not small in size.

Now if you look closely, the ones from the Wood Tribe are either bigger than them or the same size as them.

The size of an orc warrior's transformation is based on his level, the larger the size, the higher the level.

Doesn’t that mean that the people from the Mu tribe in front of us are at least level five?

Now is not the time to think about these things. The important thing is to ask the people of the Mu tribe to let them go.

"Let us go!" The leading super goose struggled under the tiger's claws, "If you hurt us, the Ze tribe will not let the Mu tribe go."

Shen Nong had heard of a dead duck being stubborn, and now he heard of a dead goose being stubborn.

Thinking of Ze’s previous attitude towards the Ze tribe, Shen Nong had many doubts in his mind.

Moreover, Yang Lei and Yang Dian had told him before that when they sent Ze back to the tribe, Ze had whispered in their ears, "Don't eat the things given by Ze tribe."

Although I don’t know why Ze said that, but what I can be sure of is that there is something fishy going on in the Ze tribe.

With such tribes around, you have to be on guard every day against them trying to harm you.

He had never found an opportunity to meet the Huize tribe, but now they came to him.

Shen Nong crossed his arms over his chest, leaning on Ze like a boneless man. He said lazily, "I want to see why the Ze tribe won't let the Mu tribe go."

Ze's whole body was stiff and straight.

"Tie these people up here and wait for the Ze tribe to come looking for them."

Hu Xiao heard this and forced the people of Ze tribe to transform into human form. Shen Nong accidentally saw the naked appearance of the people and closed his eyes in gloom.

Then he stared at Ze again and again, and finally he felt relieved. He asked Mao Cao and the others to pull out the fish basket.

There are really a lot of fish in this river. In just a short while, every fish basket is full of fish.

They are all so plump and delicious. Shen Nong thought that he would have to catch more after the issue with Ze tribe is resolved.

——

Cannibal.

"Priest, the Salt Department has sent winter meat."

Wuming played with the skull in his hand, lacking interest. "It's just some junk. I'm too lazy to look at it. I'll just throw it into the hole."

"Priest, this time is different." The person who reported it did not dare to look up at the person sitting on the seat, and only said truthfully: "Two of the people sent this time are level six orcs..."

"really!"

Wuming walked quickly towards the cannibal trading point, and the skull in his hand rolled on the ground several times without him being able to put it down.

Two level six orcs! He only needs to eat their meat to advance!
