Bai Qingqing covered her stomach with her hands and said pitifully: "But I'm very hungry, I want to eat..." Suddenly remembering that Parker hates females eating rice, Bai Qingqing hurriedly changed her words: "Oh no, I want to eat meat."

Parker felt soft and said, "Then I'll go hunting now and catch a smaller prey."

Bai Qingqing was not used to bothering others. It was still a long way to the forest. She couldn't bear to let Parker go so far, so she said, "Is there anything to eat nearby? Are there fish in the river?"

"You actually eat fish? It's so unpalatable!" Parker stared at Bai Qingqing in disbelief, suddenly remembered something, and continued: "By the way, you are an ape tribe, an omnivorous race. It turns out that you also like to eat fish."

Parker still couldn't believe it. The fish was so fishy that he couldn't eat it. There were still small spines in the meat. How could he eat it? The leopard tribe only catches big fish when they need fish bones, and the meat is thrown into the river to feed the fish. Only disabled beasts that cannot hunt will eat fish to satisfy their hunger.

"The fish is delicious." Bai Qingqing was also full of doubts. She was a little relieved when she remembered that the barbecue here didn't add any seasonings. "Put some of that medicinal material on it and it will taste better."

"You can eat it if you like. I'll go down to the river to catch fish. This one is easy to catch. I'll be back soon." After Parker finished speaking, he took off his animal skin skirt and turned into an animal without caring about Bai Qingqing's presence. Xing ran out.

Bai Qingqing was now used to looking at Parker's private parts, so she blushed a little and then acted as if nothing had happened.

Soon, a wet leopard came back with a one-meter-long fish in its mouth, leaving a series of plum blossom-shaped wet footprints along the way.

Bai Qingqing glanced at it and knew it was Parker from the familiar look on the other person's face. She smiled and said, "It's so fast."

Parker spat the disemboweled and still alive fish to the side, raised his leopard head proudly, and transformed back into his human form. As he changes, the moisture in his hair is instantly squeezed out of his body.

"Wow -" The ground under Parker's feet was poured with a chill.

Bai Qingqing tilted her head consciously and looked at the grass stalks beneath her.

Parker put on the animal skin skirt, lit a fire under the shade of the tree at the door, and then asked Bai Qingqing: "Yesterday I had fragrant wood-flavored barbecue. Let's eat oil-flavored barbecue today."

"Okay." Bai Qingqing is very interested in those woods. In the future, she can combine them with earth's cooking techniques to create more delicious food.

Parker took out a tree trunk that was as green as paulownia wood and put it on the fire. He saw that the still fresh wood ignited when it touched the fire. It burned like oil, and the rising green smoke showed through. A fresh oily scent.

Bai Qingqing was amazed. It turned out that youchai was a tree rich in oil. There was such a magical species in nature.

Parker was about to put the fish on the grill when Bai Qingqing came to her senses and hurriedly shouted: "Wait!"

"Huh?" Parker looked back at Bai Qingqing.

"Are you just grilling it like this?" Bai Qingqing said with a look of shame: "Aren't you going to scrape the fish scales? Aren't you going to remove the gills?"

Although she has never cooked much, she has helped her mother a lot, and she can still kill fish. Three steps of killing fish: disemboweling, scraping scales, and removing fish gills.

Can this fish be eaten without scaling it? You won't get any scales if you bite it off. There are also fish gills. There is a lot of sand there, and the fishy smell is quite strong. No wonder people here don’t like to eat fish.

Parker immediately said: "It's going to be grilled outside anyway. Wouldn't it be cleaner to have a layer of scales? There are also gills. If you don't want to eat the head, why did you get them out? It's troublesome."

What he said made sense, but Bai Qingqing was speechless.

Bai Qingqing is not sure whether the scales of the grilled fish need to be scaled, but she is even more unsure whether the fish without scales can be eaten. So she simply walked out holding the stone basin and said domineeringly: "Then let's not bake it, let's cook it!"

"Cook?" Parker was confused.
