Chen Qi was full of black lines, of course he didn't want a child, who would he find in this world without women? Are you looking for Aze? After grinding his molars, he explained: "I want to wear it myself." Although the animal skin has been tanned, it is obvious that the tanning technology is not mature enough. There is no cloth between, and every pore of the skin is clamoring for this animal skin garment. How rough it is.

A Li didn't worry about who was wearing the cloth he wove, he slightly hooked his lips, and said in a down-to-earth manner: "You need to prepare cocoons yourself, and one piece of cloth should be exchanged for at least the meat of an adult antelope."

Hairy cocoons are cocoons made of silk spun out by caterpillar dragons. They are usually prepared for young animals to spend the winter, but dragons live in the Loya forest. Even if caterpillar dragons are harmless dragons, their cocoons are also Not so easy to come by.

Chen Qi frowned slightly, he couldn't get these two things now, it seems that the matter of cloth can only be put aside for the time being. Aze took the words: "Tomorrow I will prepare the meat and cocoons. The animal skins here, please help Chen Qi make a few sets of animal skin clothes. I will go hunting tomorrow for the reward."

"Yeah." Ali stood up, limped and staggered slightly to a pottery plate, took out a vine, came back to measure Chen Qi's body, and broke the vine at the determined length, with a tone of voice He asked casually: "Have you found a house yet? There should be many vacant houses on the rocky mountain."

"Chen Qi intends to build a house next to my house." Aze had a smile on his face.

"Oh?" This was beyond Ali's expectation. He couldn't help staring at Chen Qi and looked at him. Chen Qi was covered in hairs. Then Ah Li turned around and walked to the place where the animal skins were piled up, and took out a piece of cloth. , The cloth is not too big, it is only about one meter long and half a meter wide. I handed it to Chen Qi, "You take this back and use it first, and I will make the rest for you when A Ze finds the cocoon."

I don't know if it's Chen Qi's illusion, but I always feel that the female's expression is much more cordial than at the beginning.

"Thank you." Chen Qi took over the cloth. Although the cloth looked a little rough on the outside, it was unexpectedly soft to the touch, almost like silk, and he was even more happy in his heart. It seemed that this world was not as he had imagined. Oops.

The three of them chatted for a while, mostly A Li asked Chen Qi if he really wanted to live in this tribe, and he got a positive answer, and then told A Ze to help Chen Qi build a strong house, and if he needed any help, just contact him. come to him. After rambling on for a while, Chen Qi and the two headed back home. Everyone was very busy in the month before winter, and there was not much time wasted on greetings.

After the two left the tribe, Chen Qi sincerely said to Aze: "Thank you." In various aspects, this orc really helped him too much, and he owed him too much. However, Chen Qi didn't fret because he owed the other party too much. He was still in the period of adapting to this new world, and he would just repay the other party slowly when everything was better in the future, and he didn't have the ability to be hypocritical now.

"You're welcome, do you still want to look for the food buried in the ground? It's still some time before dark, we can find it all the way back." It can be seen that Ze is in a good mood now.

The tribe is still some distance away from A Ze's home, Chen Qi is still very interested in finding food, and happily accepts A Ze's proposal. The two of them had a great time looking for some familiar plants along the way. On the way, Chen Qi also found a small bamboo forest. The bamboo was very tall and strong, but unfortunately no bamboo shoots were found in this season. What made Chen Qi happy was that he found a potato tree near the small bamboo forest. When he dug it up, there were five or six of them, each of which was the size of a fist.

Until the sun went down, the harvest of the two people along the way was these potatoes. Aze originally wanted to send Chen Qi home before hunting. At this time, there was no shortage of prey on the Dora Plain. Before they got home, the two met the fat rabbit that popped out again. The rabbit hit Chen Qi's leg directly. It was in his hands, and before Chen Qi realized it, Aze had screwed the rabbit to death.

Chen Qi looked at the potatoes in his arms, then at the rabbit in Aze's hand, "Let's eat rabbit stewed potatoes tonight."

"it is good."

Of course, Chen Qi didn't make rabbit stewed potatoes at night, because A Ze went hunting a warthog and came back, and finally cut a large piece of pork to make potato stewed meat. Although the seasoning is only salted wild ginger and a small handful of perilla leaves, But surprisingly delicious. Chen Qi also used a large piece of fat to fry a little lard, and asked Aze to slice a pork leg into pieces and fry the meat slices on a large ceramic plate. After changing the way of food, it was no longer just roasted meat with salt, this meal was very filling for Chen Qi, the two of them almost wiped out half of the warty pork and the five fist-sized potatoes.

The orc's cooking method is very simple, almost either roasting or boiling. This is the first time Aze has eaten this kind of food, and he almost couldn't stop, "Chen Qi, can we still cook like this tomorrow?" Aze asked eagerly.

Sitting by the fire, Chen Qipan rubbed his swollen stomach and said with a smile: "Of course, but the potato stew may not be able to be made. I have used up all the potatoes tonight."

"I'll look for it tomorrow when I'm hunting. I remember what potatoes look like." It was the first time that Aze knew that the roots of this buried plant would be stewed with meat. Not only did the meat become delicious, but the roots also became delicious. It was so delicious in itself.

Chen Qi's eyes lit up, "Then do you still remember what sweet potato, perilla and wild ginger look like?"

Aze nodded, "I remember, I have a good memory."

"In the future, if you see it, please be sure to dig it back." Chen Qi patted Aze on the shoulder and confessed solemnly.

Ace smiled, "Okay."

The moonlight tonight is much darker than last night. Tomorrow will probably be moonless and sunless, and winter will be winter in three months without sun. Orcs have the habit of working at sunrise and resting at sunset, but Chen Qi, who usually spends most of the night browsing the web, doesn't have this habit. He looked at the remaining half warty pork and the rabbit that had been processed but had no time to roast. He wondered if the little salt refined at noon would be enough to marinate these things.

"Aze, cut these warty pork into strips." Chen Qi gestured at the approximate size of the warty pork next to him.

"We can't eat anymore, let's cook these tomorrow." Aze looked at Chen Qi's protruding stomach and advised.

"I don't want to eat them, I want to salt them and save them for winter."

"Salted? Isn't it boiled and dried in the sun?"

"Put it in the sun to dry? Is it delicious?" Chen Qi's mouth twitched. Is this the original dried meat

Aze shook his head, "It's not delicious, but it can be stored for a long time. Now the first month's day has not yet arrived. If we need to store food, we will cook it and put it in the sun to dry. Wait until the third month's day. When the weather turns cold in the future, it can be stored directly, but at that time, the animals on the Dora Plain have almost migrated away, and there are not many hunted animals. If you want to store more food, you have to go to the Luoya Forest."

"It's okay. Foods cured with salt can be stored for a long time. It must be better than your jerky. You can cut the meat first according to my method, and don't want the bones."

"Okay." Aze didn't believe Chen Qi's saying that salting can make food last longer, but even if Chen Qi wasted the food, it would be a big deal to go hunting and come back by himself. It's not yet time. The best time to store food, there is still time for Chen Qi to toss.

Chen Qi first boiled half a plate of water with a pottery plate, then found a clean pottery plate and put it aside for later use. After the water boiled, he used a long wooden stick to clamp the sliced meat and put it in boiling water to scald it. When the meat changes color, take it out, spread salt evenly on the surface of the meat strips, and then put it into a clean pottery plate next to it.

Just put a full layer in this way and sprinkle salt on it again, until all the meat is processed, and the pottery plate is also filled with a large plate of meat. Chen Qi put the pottery dish containing the meat by the ventilated door away from the fire, and shook his sore arms in satisfaction. "Just find a cool place to dry tomorrow."

Aze looked at the sky and asked, "Then rest today?"

"Yeah." After a busy day, Chen Qi was also a little tired. Before going to sleep, Chen Qi still stewed a large plate of bone soup on the fire. There are still a lot of bones in a whole warthog, and Chen Qi only chose a few joints. Let Aze smash the bones, and then blanch the blood foam with the water used to treat the meat strips just now, then add a few pieces of wild ginger and stew it, so that we can drink bone soup when we come together tomorrow morning. Bone broth is much better than plain broth.

This night was the most comfortable night for Chen Qi to sleep since he came to this world. The booming sound that hadn't appeared in his mind for a long time reappeared, but this time the melody of the sound turned into a mysterious and beautiful beat. Chen Qi had a feeling that he was finally going to integrate into this world, and once again deeply realized that , I may never go back to the original world. He will live as a creature of this world until the day he will be buried in the ground.

A Ze stretched out his hand to smooth Chen Qi's tightly frowning brows in his deep sleep. He could feel the faint loneliness spreading from the other party. Although he didn't know what Chen Qi saw in his dream, he knew that he would protect Chen Qi from now on. Well, this person in front of me, as long as he stays by his side, Aze will protect him until the end.

Aze turned down the firewood in the fire a little bit, and the pottery plate without a cover could see the bones rolling in the water, emitting a seductive aroma, pulling the animal skin next to it and laying it on the ground, thinking, I should be able to have a dream full of food tonight, it would be even better if there is Chen Qi in the dream.
