Chapter 7 Barbecue

Buy three cleansing pills and get one free (Revised)

[Ding, system prompts, it is detected that the Wood Tribe has mastered the skill of "firing pottery", and the reward infrastructure points are: 3000. ]

Because it is not fired in a sealed manner, there are quite a lot of broken and cracked parts.

But they burn a lot, so there are quite a few that can be used.

The fired pottery turned gray due to insufficient firepower and material problems. Shen Nong asked people to collect the broken pieces so that they could be used as clinker in the future, which could effectively prevent them from exploding.

The people of the Mu tribe were amazed at what they had made. They realized that burning clay could turn into stone bowls.

No, it is something better than a stone bowl. Stone bowls are very difficult to make, and the old people need to polish it for many days to make one.

It is also very heavy. Children who have not yet awakened and elderly people will feel pain in their hands if they lift it for a long time.

But the "stone bowl" made by the priests was very light and easy to make.

All you have to do is play with mud and then put it in the fire.

Shen Nong took the gray pottery jar that had cooled down, tapped the jar gently, and heard the muffled sound coming from the jar, and couldn't help but smile.

Originally, he felt a little embarrassed about cheating the system, but facts proved that if you don't feel apologetic towards the system, you will become unfortunate.

He doesn't even blink when others try to trick him, so now the system is used to exploit bugs in his case.

Hu Xiao was holding the giant tree leaves, which contained salt stones in front of Shennong Cave.

He put down all the 100 kilograms of salt stone, "Priest, it's all here."

Shen Nong held a stone in his hand and wanted to smash the large piece of salt stone into pieces. After smashing it once, he lifted it up again to smash it again, but ended up with nothing.

The salt stone had been smashed into pieces by a punch from the young man next to him.

Shen Nong, feeling relieved, put down the stone and asked Ze to continue crushing the other salt stones.

Upon hearing this, Ze punched a piece of the salt stone on the animal hide, breaking it with his fist, as fast as playing whack-a-mole.

The people of the Mu tribe didn't know why the priests wanted to crush the salt stone into pieces, making it difficult to lick them in their hands.

They didn't ask Shen Nong either, since they could eat it even if it was crushed.

Moreover, the salt stone priest did not say that it would be distributed to the tribe, so it should be kept by the priest in his own cave.

What's in the priest's cave are the priest's things, and they won't have any other extra thoughts.

Shen Nong put some of the broken salt stone into a pottery jar, filled the jar with water, and put it on the fire. "Now I will teach you a method to make the salt stone as white as snow."

The people of the Mu tribe were a little surprised. The salt stone turned into snow?

How could salt rock possibly become like snow?

However, the priests had previously taught them how to make fire from wood and to make pots from fire and clay.

Others said they would not believe it, but if the priest said it, then the salt stone would definitely turn into snow.

As the water slowly boiled, the salt stone was melted. Shen Nong continued to add salt until the newly added salt could no longer dissolve and reached saturation.

Then just let it sit and wait for the water to evaporate. White crystals will begin to condense on the inner wall of the jar. As the water evaporates, more salt crystals will form.

In the end, a large jar of salt water was reduced to only one-third fine salt.

"Salt...stone...saltstone...snow..."

“It’s really…it’s really turned into a snowflake!”

The people of the Mu tribe who witnessed the process with their own eyes were still a little bit unbelievable. The salt, which looked like snowflakes, was so beautiful!

Every time I went to the Salt Department to exchange salt, Hu Xiao was there. He said with absolute certainty, "The Salt Department doesn't have this kind of salt. Only our Mu Tribe has it."

Tu Dong looked at the white salt and asked happily, "Can our Mu tribe also sell salt in the future?"

Hu Xiao also wanted to sell salt, but after thinking about it, he said, "But we don't have a lot of salt rocks to turn into snowflakes."

Shen Nong suggested to the others, "You can buy a lot of salt rocks from the Salt Department and turn them into snowflake salt. Then, you can sell the snowflake salt at a higher price. This way, you can get more things in exchange."

After saying this, the system prompt also came.

[Ding, system prompts, it is detected that the Mu tribe has mastered the skill of "Purifying Fine Salt", and the reward infrastructure points are: 3000. ]

[Ding, system prompts, Mission 2 completed, a total of 9,000 infrastructure points awarded. Please check. ]

[Task 3: Our slogan is to be invincible! Let’s set a small goal first and train five level 7 orc warriors! ]

[Reward: 250,000 infrastructure points. ]

A level 7 orc warrior has 50,000 infrastructure points. If the system doesn't draw them, it means that task three is too difficult.

After Shen Nong accepted the task, he took out the bloodstone from the system warehouse.

Pick out five more powerful ones from the hunting team and ask them to come and test their levels.

Except for Hu Xiao who is a level three orc warrior, the other four are level two orc warriors.

If it hadn't been late at night, Shen Nong would have almost failed to see the light of the bloodstone.

Although Shen Nong was not clear about the specific requirements for orc upgrades here, he knew that upgrading to the next level was definitely not easy.

He himself is a superpower, and the time span of each level is very difficult.

Don't be afraid if you encounter difficulties, just blackmail the system first.

Adhering to this truth of life, Shen Nong called the system, "It's time to show your sincerity."

The system dared not speak out, not to mention that if Shen Nong could complete the task quickly, it could also get a commission.

However, it didn't dare to open the backdoor too obviously, so it said: "Consider it as a supplement to your novice gift pack. The original price of Marrow Cleansing Pill was 100,000 infrastructure points per piece, but now it costs 1,000 infrastructure points per piece."

Then a promotional poster for the Marrow Cleansing Pill popped up on the interface. "Marrow Cleansing Pill, cleanses the tendons and strengthens the marrow, turns a loser into a genius, a magical medicine from the world of immortals. Don't want 100,000, don't want 10,000, now only 1,000, take this magical medicine from the world of immortals home!"

Shen Nong looked at the promotional poster with bright red and green colors and words that kept zooming in and out and jumping without any expression. He was a little worried that the system would be infected with a virus one day.

"Give me a discount."

The system froze for a moment again. When it heard these three words, the code was in disarray. It was frightened. If possible, the system really wanted to program Shen Nong to be unable to say these three words.

[This is already a bargain price. If it wasn’t for your newbie gift pack, you could buy a scent for 1,000 infrastructure points.]

Shen Nong said "Oh", and just when the system thought it had successfully persuaded Shen Nong, Shen Nong said, "It's okay if there is no discount, you can buy one and get one free."

The system listening code is running around, which makes me angry.

【You might as well grab it! 】

"May I?"

"Of course not!" But the system also knew that if it didn't bleed today, Shen Nong would not let it go, so the system began to relax, "Buy nine and get one free."

Shen Nong's infrastructure points are just enough to buy nine Marrow Cleansing Pills, and the one he gave away will make it the perfect number.

The moment the system regressed, Shen Nong knew that this guy still had more to lose, "Buy three for one price, get one free."

The system, which was already under great pressure from Shen Nong in terms of bargaining, did not want to waste any more energy on struggling, so it agreed to Shen Nong's request.

Shen Nong, however, let out a "tsk", it seems there is still some profit to be made.

If he had known this, he would have insisted on buy one get one free.

One person and one system reached a unilateral friendly cooperation with Shen Nong, and the system felt that it was being cheated miserably.

It fell into deep doubt. As a highly intelligent being, it couldn't even beat a mere human in bargaining!

——

Although the system only requires five level seven orc warriors, Shen Nong wants to speed up the process, expand the tribe on a small scale, and have the ability to protect the things they have made.

So Shen Nong selected ten people in total, five from the hunting team, four from the guard team, and one more to choose from.

As his personal bodyguard, strength alone is not enough.

Shen Nong called ten people to his cave. Shen Nong didn't want to waste time, so he got straight to the point and said, "I think you should also know that the level of the orc warriors in the tribe is too low, so there is no way to protect the tribe."

Of course the orcs knew this, otherwise they wouldn't have gone hungry because of their lack of food, and they wouldn't have been chased by cannibals and had to flee all over the mountains...

Hu Xiao was a person who didn't like to be held back. In the past, he couldn't advance on his own because there was no priest to guide him every autumn.

Now they have priests, it's different.

So he said to Shen Nong seriously: "Priest, don't worry, we will train well and we will definitely advance."

The other people also nodded, their attitudes serious and not fake.

Shen Nong was very satisfied with their attitude and said, "Open your hands."

After the orcs did as they were told, Shen Nong asked the system to place the marrow cleansing pill in their palms.

“This! What is this!?”

"I don't know, it just appeared out of nowhere!"

Except for Ze, all the other orcs exclaimed that the priest asked the Beast God to send them magic medicine.

Ze looked at Shen Nong without saying a word, the admiration in his eyes was entirely for Shen Nong alone.

Shen Nong noticed this unique sight.

Everyone's reverence for him is based on the Beast God, except the young man.

Interestingly, he finally met a primitive man who was not superstitious.

"Eat it. This will make your body healthier and you will advance faster."

Shen Nong didn't explain it in detail, he just reminded: "But right after you eat it, your body will feel very painful. It's like your bones are broken and your meridians are torn. After you get through this period, the pain will slowly disappear."

He glanced at the ten people one by one, "If you don't have the confidence to endure this kind of pain, speak out now, and the things in your hands will disappear on their own."

Although the ten people didn't quite understand what meridians were, they knew how painful it was when their bones were broken.

However, none of the ten people retreated because of this. The orc warriors would not retreat because of pain!

After listening to it, Ze was the first to swallow the marrow cleansing pill.

Then came Hu Xiao. He was the most powerful orc warrior in the Mu tribe hunting team. How could he lose to the little devil from the Ze tribe!

In the end, all ten people took the marrow cleansing pill, and no one chose to quit.

Shen Nong smiled and said, "Go back and rest. Come back to me when the pain goes away."

"Yes, priest."

After the other nine people left, there was still one person left in the cave.

There was no other place for him to live in the Mu tribe, so he needed to build his own thatched hut.

But there was no time to build it now, so Shen Nong asked him to stay with him for one night until the effect of the medicine wore off.

Shen Nong looked at the boy and pointed at the animal skin on the ground, "You sleep here."

At night, the men, women, young and old of the Mu tribe sat around the fire, staring at their priest grilling meat.

After the pottery jar was made, Shen Nong used it to boil animal lard and extract animal fat.

Cat grass has eaten lard, and I can only eat a few bites of this thing at most, and I can’t eat more than that.

Seeing that Shen Nong had filled a whole jar, he couldn't help but remind him.

"Priest, this doesn't taste good. If you eat too much, you will vomit."

Shen Nong poured water into the pottery jar and said, "Don't eat it, make oil."

"What is oil?"

Shen Nong explained simply and crudely: "Oil will make the meat taste better."

Maocao sat up straight and stared at the pottery jar.

Then he wants to take a closer look at this magical thing that makes meat taste better.

As the oil was refined, the residue gave off an aroma. Mao Cao subconsciously took a deep breath and saliva secreted from his mouth.

Shen Nong scooped out the oil residue and placed it on the leaves, sprinkled salt on them, and gave it directly to the cat as cat grass, asking him to share it with the children in the tribe.

Mao Cao happily turned around holding the oil residue and instantly turned into the king of children. He was surrounded by a group of children, who kept chirping, "Mao Cao Mao Cao".

After enjoying the feeling of being surrounded for a while, Mao Cao held back his saliva and began to share the oil residue.

The children who were given the oil residue couldn't wait to put it into their mouths.

Instantly fill your mouth with crispy and salty flavor.

The children had never tasted such delicious food before, and they stared at the oil residue in Mao Cao's hand with their eyes wide open.

Still want to eat.

But there weren't many oil residues, so if each person got two, they could almost share them all.

They licked their fingers after taking the oil residue and handed another oil residue to Shen Nong.

"Priest, give it to you."

Shen Nong looked at the children who were so greedy that they wanted to share half of the oil residue with him, and smiled slightly, "You eat it."

Maocao suddenly remembered what Huxiao had said to him before, and quickly said to his friends: "Don't give it to the priest, Huxiao said the priest doesn't like to eat meat."

It takes a hundred lies to cover up one lie.

In order to avoid being "deprived" of the right to eat meat in the future, Shen Nong had to find another excuse, "Not really, I will eat meat when I am really hungry."

After confirming that the priest really didn't want to eat it, the children happily ate the only oil residue in their hands in one bite.

It smells really good.

"From now on, all animal fat can be boiled into oil according to my method."

Shen Nong used a dagger to cut the meat into pieces of similar size, washed it with cooled water after cooking, and divided it into two portions.

Put one portion in a clay pot and stew it with some oil.

For the other one, use a dagger to make cuts on the meat and sprinkle the fine salt made by the Wood Tribe on it and spread it evenly.

After the fat was boiled, Shen Nong used washed grass leaves as a brush, dipped it in the fat and brushed it on the meat.

They are then skewered on sticks and roasted over a fire.

The fat was roasted out and dripped into the fire, causing sparks to appear and the firewood to crackle.

The salty taste of salt stimulates the infinite meat aroma, tempting everyone's taste buds.

They swallowed subconsciously. They were already craving for the oil residue, but they were adults after all, and they couldn't snatch that little bit of food from children.

Now, smelling the aroma of the meat roasted by the priest, I couldn't help but drool, thinking that it must be very delicious.

It's totally different from the black lumps they bake.

Shen Nong turned the skewers of meat back and forth to ensure that they were evenly heated, and asked someone to cook the rest of the meat according to his steps.

There are bone knives in the Mu tribe. They are very skilled in using the knives, and their speed in cutting meat is no slower than Shen Nong's using a dagger.

Roasting time is shorter than stewing time, so the Mu tribe can enjoy the barbecue quickly.

"tasty!"

"Meat is salty! It tastes better than sprinkling salt on the earth, and better than licking salt stones!"

"The meat wasn't blackened on the outside, and there was no blood inside."

"It doesn't taste like the prey in your mouth!"

The people of the Mu tribe seemed to have discovered a new continent and were very receptive to new barbecue methods.

I fell in love with the taste immediately.

Although Shen Nong's food tasted just so-so, it was still a hundred times better than what the Mu tribe usually ate.

"The broth is ready."

Shen Nong sprinkled some fine salt into the broth before it was served, which gave it an aroma completely different from that of barbecue.

The broth smelled bland, but tasting like another story.

The meat is moderately salty and can be easily torn into strips after being stewed, so even toothless elderly people can eat it.

The aroma of barbecue and broth filled the entire Mu tribe, and miserable screams echoed through the night sky.

The shocked people of the Mu tribe forgot to chew their meat, "Who's yelling?"

"The sound is a bit like a tiger's roar."

"It sounds like Rabbit Wind to me."

"But I feel like Ushiki and Ushiyama."

"No, it's obviously Mao Yun."

The people of the Mu tribe then realized that the people they were talking about did not come to eat meat.

Shen Nong ate the barbecue and said calmly, "They will keep yelling like this until morning, you don't have to worry about it."

Since the priest said so, the people of the Mu tribe no longer took it to heart.

I started to eat barbecue happily again. At first I was scared by the screams, but later I got used to it.

The ten people who had eaten the marrow cleansing pill could only smell the aroma of meat and endure the double torture of mind and body.
