Chapter 46 Kelp

Various ways to eat meat

The orc left quickly and came back quickly.

Shen Nong didn't care at first, but when he saw what the orc was holding, his eyes lit up, as if flashing with light.

This is kelp!

Ze kept Shen Nong's surprised look in his mind, and followed Shen Nong's gaze to look at the long and somewhat hard "grass".

"Our tribe doesn't eat salt stone, we eat this." Yu Ji lowered his head, took the thing from the orc's hand, handed it to Shen Nong, and explained: "Green long grass."

This long green grass has always been an indispensable food for the Yu tribe. If you don't eat it for a long time, you will feel uncomfortable all over.

Yu Ji knew about salt stones, and that tribes that were not near the sea had to rely on salt stones for food.

It’s just that no one trades salt rocks with the Yu tribe. Fortunately, they have never relied on obtaining salt from salt rocks.

Green grass is only found in the sea. The orcs of the Feather Tribe can fly, so even if their tribe is not close to the sea now, they can get it in a short time.

What's more, this green grass can be stored for a long time if it is processed well.

The taste is always good too.

It was just that the winter was too cold, and the orcs of the Yu tribe could not fly out to gather grass. The green grass in the tribe had been eaten almost completely, and only he had some left.

These were what he had planned to save for making drinking water for Eagle Creek.

Yingxi is not in any danger of life now. If Yingxi wants to eat, he can eat it anytime. Yu Ji saw Shen Nong's love for the green grass in his hand, so he said, "This tastes good. I'll give it to you."

Shen Nong bought a map from the system and he knew there was no sea nearby.

According to the distance from here to the nearest sea area shown on the map, if you walk for ten hours a day, and the road is difficult and dangerous, it will take at least twenty days.

Gently pinching the dry and hard kelp in his hand, Shen Nong felt that the cooperation with the Yu Tribe could be further deepened.

For the Yu tribe, the distance to the beach is nothing.

The gurgling sound of the broth brought Shen Nong back to his senses. He kept a little bit of the dried kelp and gave the rest back to Yu Ji. "Since it's for me, then consider it as me treating you to a bowl of kelp soup. Put some of this in the broth, it'll be delicious too."

Yu Ji did not refuse, as the tribe members had not eaten green grass soaked in water for a long time.

But the water from the green grass is just a little salty. How can it be delicious?

He asked the orcs who followed him to take the portion that Shen Nong gave him. Shen Nong instructed: "Soak it in water until soft, cut it with a bone knife, and then put it in the pottery pot to cook."

The orc was slightly stunned, a little confused, but he still nodded and said he understood.

After the others left with the green grass, Yu Ji asked Shen Nong, "When you cook the green grass in your pottery pot, it's called kelp soup?"

Shen Nong thought of what he had just said and chuckled, "You call it green grass, but I usually call it kelp. Just like you call wheat thorns, but I call thorns wheat. It's just a different name."

Yu Ji nodded, with a smile on his face, and said seriously: "The names you are used to are better than the ones we call you."

"Then you can call me that in the future."

Yu Ji said, "Okay!" He whispered a few words, thinking about the names of kelp and wheat. Well, these two names really sound better.

Add kelp into the broth, cover with lid and simmer.

The fire was also adjusted as Shen Nong said, by adding fewer branches and reducing the heat a lot.

Only when you get very close can you smell the hidden salty fragrance.

..

In the dense forest, Bao Qiu was staring at a sturdy wild boar, and Lang Yu and he were cooperating with each other.

After they transform, their bodies become larger, and they cannot move freely here, so they only hunt in human form.

The wild boar ran out from deeper into the jungle, and it seemed to have injuries on its legs.

Therefore, its movements are not very agile and it sways from side to side when running.

Bao Qiu and his friends had already caught quite a bit of prey, enough for them to have two meals.

However, there is no need to worry about having too much prey, especially when it comes to your doorstep.

"coming!"

Bao Qiu shouted to Lang Yu, and Lang Yu quickly cut off the wild boar's retreat, while Bao Qiu blocked the wild boar in front.

With his large and powerful hands, he supported the wild boar's sharp fangs. Due to the strong impact, Bao Qiu was pushed back several meters by the wild boar.

The wild boar's tusks were restrained, and it felt uncomfortable, so it shook its head violently.

But the result was no movement.

It shakes!

like a statue.

It's shaking!

like a statue..

Bao Qiu's arms were bulging, and his muscles were as hard as iron, as if they were about to tear the clothes wrapped around his arms apart. Even if a level 7 orc warrior did not transform, he could not be easily shaken by a wild boar.

Bao Qiu was extremely fast and quickly let go. The wild boar hadn't reacted yet, and only saw a shadow coming towards it. Bao Qiu hit the wild boar's head with an elbow, causing it to completely lose consciousness.

After easily subduing the wild boar, Bao Qiu called out to the others, "Go back quickly, the priest is getting hungry."

“Ouch!”

Lang Yu let out a howl, shook off the sweat from his head, picked up the prey not far away, and left quickly.

Not long after they left, a group of orcs chased out of the dense forest.

"Inufeng, the prey has been lost."

The dog-like beastman was nearly two meters tall, with white hair that looked a little sticky because it had not been groomed for a long time. The blood stains on his chest were some that had dried, and some that were still bright red, with tiny drops of blood dripping down along his hair.

Quanfeng had a keen sense of smell. He stared at the traces on the ground, his nose twitching slightly, and said in a deep voice, "It wasn't that he lost it, but that he was hunted by another orc."

Moreover, this group of people is very strong.

It was so strong that he could still smell the remaining powerful orc aura.

"What should we do? We only have a deer and a cow now..."

The speaking sheep-like orc has spirally curved horns, a thick body and gray-brown fur.

He said with some worry: "If there is not enough prey, the priest will be unhappy..."

Quan Feng snorted coldly, "I don't care whether he is happy or not."

Yang Wu frowned, "Don't say that again, the tribe still depends on him to survive."

A tribe cannot be without priests.

Yang Wu did not say this explicitly, but Quan Feng knew what he meant.

Quan Feng lowered his eyelashes to hide the coldness in his eyes, and then said to the other orcs: "There is not enough prey. Follow me into the dense forest to hunt again."

..

The hunting team of the Yu tribe was sent out by Yu Ji to collect wild vegetables. When they came back, Bao Qiu and others also came back with enough prey.

Bao Qiu and his crew hunted a lot this time, and each of them carried a large prey on his shoulder.

This number directly shocked everyone in the Yu tribe.

They had never hunted so much prey in such a short time before.

Because of the special nature of their animal form, they hunt in relatively open areas. Most of the prey comes in groups, so it takes a lot of effort to hunt them.

In addition, their orc level is not too high. Except for the hunting team captain Yingya and the tribe leader Yingxi who are level five orc warriors, the others are below level five.

To hunt so many prey, the Yu tribe needs to spend a lot of time and experience.

Looking at the prey, some orcs from the Feather Tribe showed envy in their eyes.

If only they could hunt freely in the jungle.

This way they don’t have to go hungry and worry about not having enough to eat all day.

Shen Nong didn't know what they were thinking. If he knew, he would definitely say that the amount of prey hunted had nothing to do with the beast shape.

When he first came here, the orcs of the Mu tribe, who were in the form of tigers and lions, were still starving to the point of being skin and bones.

Ability is the most fundamental.

As long as you are strong enough, you can eat your fill.

Yu Ji gave some wild vegetables to Shen Nong. He originally wanted to give more, but Shen Nong had never eaten these before and was afraid that they would not taste good, but he also didn't want to waste them, so he didn't ask for much.

Seeing Shen Nong insisted, Yu Ji didn't say anything else.

The broth of the Yu tribe is almost ready at this time. The salty and fragrant taste of kelp is integrated into the broth, and the meat is stewed until it is soft and tasty, and it seems to melt in the mouth.

When they opened the lid of the clay pot, the fragrant smell made the Yu tribe members stunned for a long time.

The members of the Yu tribe swallowed their saliva. Some of them were so anxious that they put their hands directly into the clay pot, but they pulled their hands back because they were burned.

"Huff, huff, huff." The scalded orc put his hand to his mouth and blew it, but his eyes were staring at the meat in the pot, and drool was flowing from the corners of his mouth.

This clay pot was eaten by four orcs.

The orcs of the Yu tribe had never eaten like this before. It was so hot that they definitely couldn't eat it with their hands.

Do I have to wait until it’s cold before eating it?

Shen Nong blinked and walked to Yu Ji.

"These broths are best eaten in earthenware bowls, but if you have stone bowls, you can use them too."

Yu Ji sighed, "There aren't many stone bowls in the tribe. They're rarely used, and it's not convenient to polish them."

As for the ceramic bowl...

Yu Ji said: "The tribe doesn't have anything else to trade with you for the pottery bowl."

Shen Nong smiled and said, "Why not? I think kelp is pretty good. How about exchanging kelp for a ceramic bowl?"

Yu Ji thought that this fair-skinned priest really liked making deals.

"Although I would like to make this deal with you, our tribe is out of kelp now."

Since business came to his doorstep, there was no reason for Shen Nong not to do it.

Anyway, the Yu tribe couldn't run away, so Shen Nong said: "I can give you the pottery bowls first, and you can give us the kelp later."

Yu Ji's eyes lit up. Is this possible?

"So how much kelp do you want?"

Shen Nong pondered for a while. There was no such thing as weight here. He glanced at the basket and gave an approximate amount, "One basket of kelp for thirty ceramic bowls."

Although it was not easy for the Yu Tribe to fly a long way to get kelp, firing their pottery bowls was not that simple either.

There are several steps to prepare the clay that can be used to make pottery bowls, and there is also a certain rate of damage during firing.

Shen Nong said: "I can teach you how to weave a backpack. Next time you go to collect things, you can carry a lot of things."

Yu Ji had been curious about the things they carried on their backs before, it turned out to be called a backpack.

Their backpacks are large, but the kelp is long and easy to fill.

Not to mention that these fair-skinned priests also said they would teach them how to weave backpacks. You know, before, because they didn't have enough containers, they had to run back and forth several times to get enough kelp to eat.

If they had this backpack, the Yu tribe could save a lot of effort and time when collecting kelp.

"Okay!" Yu Ji agreed readily, "Everyone in our tribe should have a pottery bowl."

Shen Nong counted the number of people and asked Bao Qiu to bring out fifty-six ceramic bowls.

He gave four more, making a total of sixty, just enough to exchange for two large backpacks of kelp.

The pottery bowls were distributed quickly, and the orcs of the Yu tribe, who were standing in front of the pottery pot and smelling the aroma of meat, were already impatient.

However, people were too impatient to drink the hot broth, so in order to have a bite of meat, everyone held back their saliva and divided the broth into four portions.

Each person's ceramic bowl was filled to the brim with some large chunks of meat and one or two pieces of kelp in the bowl.

Originally, Yu Ji didn't have much kelp, and after distributing it to the tribesmen, it was already pretty good for each person to get one or two pieces.

The people of the Yu tribe were wolfing down the broth and eating the meat.

The Mu tribe also began to process the prey.

Bao Qiu and his men were very experienced and processed the prey quickly. Perhaps their appetites had been spoiled during their stay in the Mu tribe, and now they had enough food and time, and they didn't need to rush.

So, Bao Qiu and the others used all the methods they knew.

Stone slab grilled meat, clay pot stewed meat, clay stewed meat...

Shen Nong picked out some good bones and prepared to make some bone soup. He was a little greedy for the fragrant and tender bone soup.

It would be great if I had iron so I could make an iron pan.

With an iron pan, you can cook.

Shen Nong was thinking about all kinds of stir-fried dishes in his mind, and he was really greedy.

In the interstellar world, due to the soil conditions, native green plants without supernatural catalysis are very expensive and cannot be eaten normally.

He relied on his reputation as a master and the fact that he was valued by his superiors, so eating there three or four times a week was the limit.

Now there is no shortage of green plants to eat, but there is no pot.

Shen Nong stared at one place in a daze, his mind filled with shredded pork with green peppers and stir-fried cauliflower with pork slices.

Ze followed the other person's gaze and saw a thin orc from the Feather Tribe.

The orc was holding a clay bowl and drinking the broth in small sips. His movements were very small, which was in stark contrast to the orcs around him who were eating and drinking voraciously.

Moreover, this orc, rarely, looks cleaner than other orcs.

Ze frowned slightly, took a step forward calmly, and quietly turned sideways to block Shen Nong's gaze.

Shen Nong suddenly felt a "wall" appear in front of him, and came back to his senses, "What's wrong?"

Ze looked down at Shen Nong without saying a word.

He didn't know what to say, but he felt annoyed by the priest's focused gaze on others.

He wanted the priest's beautiful eyes to remain fixed on him, but he knew that he could not say that.

He also knew that his thoughts were not right, so he tried hard to restrain himself and did not dare to show any emotion.

But Ze didn't want to deceive the priest, so he just watched.

Look at the priest's long eyelashes and small round nose tip..

Shen Nong couldn't understand what was wrong with this kid all of a sudden, but he was too lazy to ask. He had just mentioned a bunch of dishes in his mind, and now he was really hungry.

So I turned around and asked when Baoqiu meat would be ready.

Ze couldn't look down any further, he raised his hand to cover his heart, it was beating too fast.

He seems to have some health problems.

Bao Qiu was busy smearing mud on the meat wrapped in leaves, while Lang Yu was working the fastest on the stone slab grilling.

Before Baoqiu could reply, Langyu waved his hand, "Priest! The barbecue is almost ready! Come and eat here!"

Having just eaten barbecue yesterday, Shen Nong didn’t feel like eating any more, but he was too hungry, so he decided to eat a few bites to fill his stomach and wait for the other dishes to become delicious, so he would try each one.

Shen Nong touched his belly and walked towards Lang Yu, and Ze hurriedly followed.

The Yu tribe was stunned by the Mu tribe's operations on meat.

There are so many ways to eat this meat?

The aroma of barbecue was so overbearing that it soon spread everywhere.

The members of the Yu tribe looked at the broth in their hands, which had once smelled extremely delicious, and now it seemed a little bland.
