Even during the migration period, because the fish in Luoshui Lake are rarely hunted by the orcs, they are not afraid of the approach of the orcs. Some fish even swim to the side of the orcs. During the day, the water on the water surface is exposed to the sun. It was so hot that the shadow cast by the bamboo raft became the best place for the fish to avoid the scorching sun, and many of them naturally gathered here.
A Xu and A Xu hardly need to move, just spread the fishing net under the water, wait for the fish to swim in, and then slowly pull up the net from the four corners, you can catch a lot of big fish, small in size The orcs had already escaped from the gaps in the fishing nets, but the orcs didn't care. In less than an hour, they harvested prey that took several days to harvest.
Because of the rare harvest, Ah Chu gathered all the clansmen to hold a party in a shady place by the rocky mountain, and asked Axu to teach them how to deal with the newly obtained fish.
Chen Qi had long been attracted by the huge lobster. He asked Ah Shu to bring the biggest pottery plate in his house, and then found a bamboo sieve with relatively large gaps to put in the pottery pot. Add an appropriate amount of water, wash the lobster clean, put it in, and steam it.
While Chen Qi was drooling at the big lobster, Ah Chu walked over with a female from the Yanshan tribe.
Chen Qi had seen this female before, it was the gray-eared middle-aged female who was standing on the bank with Ah Chu before, her face looked more mature than Ah Chu's, her face was thinner, and she couldn't see her profile clearly before. At this moment, the two stood in front of Chen Qi and looked closely, but felt that the eyebrows and eyes of the two were somewhat similar.
Ah Chu called Ah Xu over, and then pointed to the female beside him and introduced to them: "This is from the Yanshan tribe, and also my elder brother, named Ah Yan." After speaking, he called Chen Qi one by one. Several people introduced Ayan.
"Hello." Ayan nodded slightly to several people. Although Ayan looks only a little older than Achu on the outside, she is actually over a hundred years old. Of course, this age is still in the prime of life among orcs with a relatively long lifespan.
Achu told a few people the purpose of bringing Ayan here. In short, the Yanshan tribe also wanted to participate in this year's gathering of Qize City and Luoshui tribe.
"Maybe you don't need flint anymore, but if you need something, people from our tribe can help you find it." Although the Yanshan tribe is located on the edge of the forest, they don't have many things to exchange for. The Yanshan tribe also only brought their special flint to the gathering. Since the last time they couldn't go to the meeting, there was a way to make a fire without flint, so this year's meeting, the people of the Yanshan tribe were having a headache. Is there anything else that can be exchanged.
Having to come to the Luoshui tribe this time gave Ayan an unexpected harvest. Although it was not long, almost everyone in the Luoshui tribe was talking about a son named Chen Qi, which made Ayan pay more attention. point.
Seeing Ah Yan staring at him, Chen Qi hurriedly pushed Ah Xu ahead of the others, leaving the inter-tribal communication to professionals, he should concentrate on cooking his lobster.
"We don't have any special needs for the time being. If you want to come to the rally, you just need to bring flint. It seems that you can make fire by drilling wood, but it's actually a bit troublesome to make." Ah Xu took the topic.
Ah Yan withdrew her gaze, nodded, and the few of them chatted about the gathering, during which Ah Xu also asked about the current situation of the Yanshan tribe.
Last winter, the Yanshan tribe was almost the most miserable among the nearby tribes. Not to mention that the female who went to the meeting was attacked by a hyena dragon, and because she was absent from the meeting, she could not exchange enough salt stones and pottery. Prioritize the use of young and strong females who need to guard the tribe. Many people in the tribe began to deteriorate due to long-term lack of salt intake. Many people who were injured or too old fell down. I came to the Luoshui tribe to exchange salt stones. As a result, I encountered hyena dragons in the forest not long after the summer, and lost many young females. Now the number of people in the tribe is almost half of the previous summer. People are already considering whether to find a powerful tribe to merge with.
I don’t know if nostalgia for homeland is a common problem that is deeply rooted in people’s blood no matter which world. Before the most serious time, the people of Yanshan Tribe just circled this plan in their hearts for a few times, but did not give it to the people. The plan of action, even if the tribe is short of food and clothing because they can't hunt, they only plan to come to Luoshui Lake to hunt some prey, instead of bringing the tribe to merge into the Luoshui tribe.
Chen Qi broke off some shrimp meat, dipped it in a special sauce and gave it to Aze to taste. Every time he ate new seafood, he would only give Aze a little bit until Aze didn't show any discomfort or allergies. Only when he has similar symptoms will he let the other party eat without worry. Don't blame Chen Qi's overly cautious character in this regard. He used to have a colleague who was allergic to shrimp. He accidentally ate some and went to the hospital for emergency treatment. Chen Qi remembered this incident very deeply. There is no hospital here. He You can only be on guard against yourself.
Although he also mentioned to other orcs that if they feel unwell, they should not eat any more. I don’t know if the orcs’ bodies are too strong or they are not allergic to food. For the time being, Chen Qi has not found anyone who can’t eat a certain food. kind of food.
"You're too careful, why can't you eat the food?" Ah Shu didn't care so much, seeing that Chen Qi had already started tearing up the lobster meat, he quickly grabbed a big piece of it, dipped it in a little sauce, and stuffed it into his mouth. Those fried fish fillets or fish balls fried with rice berry powder taste even better. Ah Shu quickly grabbed another large piece of meat and handed it to Ah Chu who was chatting beside him.
Aze glared at him, and saved Chen Qi's share while others were not paying attention. He is not a greedy person. Although he thinks the lobster is really delicious, he has no idea that he must eat it , because he knew that Chen Qi was also worried about him, and this was more important to him than any food.
After finishing the lobster, Chen Qi was not in a hurry to eat it. Instead, he picked up a big fish they had eaten and fried it for Aze. Use a piece of fresh fish fat to fry the oil, and then put the thinly sliced fish meat on it, while frying, use a feather brush to dip the sauce on the meat slices, and then put it into Aze’s earthenware bowl after frying Let him eat it while it's hot.
Aze was worried that the lobster would not taste good if it was left cold, so he took chopsticks, Chen Qi fried the fish slices for him, and he fed the shrimp meat to Chen Qi at the same time, seeing the natural movement, Ah Shu couldn't help hugging himself The pottery bowl full of food moved towards Ah Le, and because it was too close, Ah Le pushed it away in disgust.
In fact, although Chen Qi was busy with his hands, his ears were pricked up to listen to the three people talking about things. Achu and the others didn't know whether they were not worried that others would hear their chat content or they deliberately told it to Chen Qi. Kai can clearly hear the range.
Ah Xu had never been to the Yanshan tribe, so he asked more detailed questions about the Yanshan tribe. Chen Qi finally couldn't help interjecting after listening: "The place where your tribe is rich in flint is a mountain with magma?"
Hearing Chen Qi's question, Ayan turned her head and looked at him, "Yes, the flint produces fire by absorbing the fire seeds on the Yanshan Mountain."
Chen Qi thought for a while, "Then do you have a stone with a strong and pungent smell?"
Ayan shook her head, "Sorry, I didn't pay attention to this, I can ask the clansmen to look for it on Mount Yan after I go back."
Chen Qi's eyes lit up, "If you don't have it on Yanshan Mountain, you can look for it nearby, maybe the stone is yellowish." If you can find sulfur stone in Yanshan tribe, then you will gather all the materials for making fire/powder It's a pity that the Yanshan tribe is too far away from here, and it's almost a month's journey from the Yanshan tribe to Qize City. If it takes so long, I'm afraid the next winter will come. I went to see for myself if there was really sulfur there, but the traffic here was so bad that I had no choice but to give up.
Ayan nodded, silently kept this matter in her heart, and planned to instruct the clansmen to find the things Chen Qi needed first after returning home.
The so-called gathering of the orcs is just to eat and eat together. There are no entertainment activities such as singing, dancing and playing games. After filling their stomachs, everyone starts to move around and want to continue fishing operations, because the operation method is too simple , even the males in the tribe who have never hunted are a little eager to try.
Ah Chu actually didn't want the males to go into the water at the beginning. After all, no matter how simple they are to hunt, they must be in the water. If they fall into the water, it will not be a fun thing. Later, Chen Qi let them put on lifebuoys. He also tied a protective rope around his waist, and let the females watch from the side, Ah Chu finally nodded in agreement with their actions.
Once a person who has never hunted before used his own hands to hunt the prey, the feeling is indescribable. A dozen young males completely snatched the job of fishing, and they worked happily in rotation from noon to low tide.
Every day at low tide, there will be some large creatures staying by the lake, and the males can only return to the shore reluctantly, but obviously there are no giant creatures worthy of the females today, and they have a good harvest in one afternoon, so clean up After a while they all went home.
Because enough prey has been hunted, considering the current situation of the Yanshan tribe, Ah Chu asked people to simply deal with all the prey and let the people of the Yanshan tribe take it back first, but Ayan and a young female stayed. After coming down, the two planned to take this opportunity to go to Qi Ze City to see the situation first.
Chen Qi and the others stayed in the Luoshui tribe for about three days. During this period, he took Aze around the rocky mountains. Except for the discovery of two wild ginseng trees, he had no special harvest, but he could harvest The wild ginseng has surprised Chen Qi very much.
Ah Xu and Ah Le were caught by the people of the Luoshui tribe every day, either to teach how to make bows and arrows, make torches, tell stories, or learn to swim, etc. They were busy every day until midnight before they were allowed to come back. In comparison, Chen Qi and A Ze looked alike It was like a vacation, but later Chen Qi also felt very sorry, after all, the Luoshui tribe took all his jobs away, and in the end Chen Qi could only teach them how to make sugar and make sugar water as a reward.
When they decided to return to Qi Ze City, Ah Xu and A Le secretly breathed a sigh of relief. The people of Luoshui tribe were too enthusiastic and they couldn't bear it, but the atmosphere of Luoshui tribe was much more silent. It is the first time for them to come into contact with so many new things. Although it will take some time to fully digest them, they somehow feel a little dependent on the few people in Qi Ze City in their hearts. The orcs will definitely find a solution. After a period of time, they have already felt a strong sense of reluctance. Later, when they heard that the patriarch would organize a small team to help carry things to Qi Ze City, those young females still secretly Fight to get a spot.
As a result, there was only a small team of six people when we came, but it turned into a large team of more than twenty people when we returned.
