Zhou Ji didn't go out today. Where do you go out in the rain? He didn't want to fret at all.
But after seeing Kumano and the others coming back, he smeared some honey on the meat of the pentagon that Kumano had not eaten, put some spices, and helped him roast it again.
There are several methods used by the people of the Big Bear tribe to preserve food, but the two most used are salting and roasting.
They will salt the food intended for long-term storage, then hang it in a cool, ventilated place to dry, and for short-term storage, they will bake it, or even repeatedly.
In this regard, Zhou Ji has an opinion.
Because salt is actually very precious, the meat cured by the people in the tribe usually has a stale and stale taste. As for barbecued meat... After a few days of barbecued meat, it will not taste good when you think about it.
But the food is in short supply in this place, and that seems to be the only way to go. Fortunately, the weather is relatively cold during this time, and food is easy to preserve.
After re-roasting the meat, Zhou Ji cooked some mushrooms with the meat of the Ridgeback Dragon that Kumano had marinated for him.
Probably because they can't tell whether mushrooms are poisonous or not, people in this tribe don't eat mushrooms, but this does not include Zhou Ji.
He made delicious food, but he didn't eat a single bite, and continued to eat fruit and vegetables.
There was only dinosaur meat today, and he didn't want to taste it at all.
When Xiong Ye came back, Zhou Ji was full: "I grilled your meat again, and cooked some soup, let's eat it."
Kumano was quick to notice the processed yakiniku, and the warm soup.
When he lived with his mother when he was a child, his mother would not prepare food for him like this - when his mother usually grilled meat by herself, she would tear off a piece and give it to him.
Kumano couldn't say how he felt for a while: "Thank you."
"No thanks, you have helped me a lot." Zhou Ji said.
Xiong Ye put down the meat that he got today, and gave Zhou Ji about two catties of meat that he got for Zhou Ji: "You didn't go to get the meat again, I brought it for you! Also, you give it to me. It's your meat, it's not good."
When Kuang Ye put the meat, he noticed that his meat was not lacking at all. What Zhou Ji cooked for him was not his meat at all.
"I don't like meat, I'll give it to you." Zhou Ji said.
"Don't like meat?" Kumano looked at Zhou Ji in shock.
Zhou Ji nodded calmly.
Kumano: "..." Is there anyone in this world who doesn't like meat? !
"Can you grow strong without eating meat?" Kumano was worried.
Zhou Ji felt that he was very strong: "It should be okay." When he first crossed into this body, he felt that this body was full of energy and powerful. Recently, it was probably because of the absorption of a lot of energy in the air, his body The white nuclei inside are much larger, and the energy is more abundant.
Although Zhou Ji said so, but Kumano still disagreed with him about not eating meat - he would have no strength if he didn't eat meat!
"You still want to eat meat! Didn't you eat fish yesterday?" Kumano said. Even if Zhou Ji doesn't go hunting and doesn't change the shape of a beast, he should eat some meat.
"Fish meat is better than dinosaur meat." Zhou Ji said.
When Kumano heard this, he couldn't help but envy Zhou Ji.
It's hard for them to eat enough, but Zhou Ji is even picky eater!
Zhou Ji's mother is really good to Zhou Ji.
Thinking like this, Kumano took the piece of five-horned dragon meat that Zhou Ji helped him roast again, and took a bite.
He had about 40 catties of five-horned dragon meat. He ate 20 catties on the first day, 10 catties yesterday, and now there are 10 catties left.
Generally speaking, the meat after two days is not very tasty, but now Kumano took a bite and tasted a sweet taste.
The sweet taste filled his mouth, and Kumano opened his eyes in surprise.
"This meat is sweet!" Kumano couldn't help saying.
"Well." Zhou Ji nodded. He put some honey he stole from the beehive in it... Little Bear really liked it.
Kumano was a little reluctant to eat meat, and then went to look at the bowl of soup, a little surprised: "The thing in this soup is mushrooms? This kind of thing is poisonous and cannot be eaten!"
"Some of these mushrooms are poisonous, and some are not. This one is not poisonous and can be eaten." Zhou Ji said.
Kumano didn't trust it, he poked a mushroom up with his chopsticks, sniffed it carefully, then licked it again, and finally took a small bite...
Zhou Ji said: "I have eaten it, and it is not poisonous."
After studying it, Kumano felt that it was not poisonous. He stuffed the mushroom into his mouth and said, "You must be careful in the future and don't eat messy things."
Zhou Ji responded, and then saw Kumano quickly eating all the meat he cooked in the soup.
This appetite is so good that he seems to be hungry. Later, he will go to his "room" earlier and give himself something to eat.
Kumano finished eating the ten jins of five-horned dragon's meat and a large pot of stewed mushrooms with the edged-backed dragon, and stopped eating: "I have an appointment with Huyue Xiongbai to hunt tomorrow, and I will go to sleep first."
"Okay." Zhou Ji nodded.
Kumano slept very well this night.
Zhou Ji, who put some soothing herbs in the barbecue, and also put some soothing herbs in the fire, has hidden merit and fame.
He prefers people who are full of energy, so let Kumano sleep well and not be depressed.
Zhou Ji, who was sleeping most of the day, ate something and continued to sleep.
Said to be sleeping, but it's not necessarily true... When he "falls asleep" with his eyes closed, he has been grabbing the surrounding energy with his mental power, and then stuffing it into his body.
After doing this, he will feel a sense of satisfaction, as if he had eaten a full meal...
The next day before dawn, Zhou Ji woke up.
He yawned and sat at the mouth of the hole, then got two vines to rub against two stones to make a fire.
It is not easy to set fire like this. People in the tribe usually go directly to the place where the fire has been lit in the tribe to barbecue or start the fire, but he helped a little with his mental power, and it is not impossible to light the fire.
When the fire was lit, he put the meat that Zhou Ji helped him with yesterday into the pot to cook soup, and by the way, cut a piece from Kumano's own roasted meat and smeared it with some seasoning.
The orcs in the big bear tribe are used to eating one meal a day, but Zhou Ji felt that it was not good, so he made some breakfast.
When Kumano woke up in the morning, he felt refreshed.
He slept so well again last night!
Kumano was a little puzzled by this situation, but he was still very happy. When he smelled the fragrance in the house, he was just as happy.
"When did you get up?" Kumano looked at Zhou Ji curiously, Zhou Ji was already up, but he didn't notice it!
"It's not long before I woke up." Zhou Ji said, "Are you too tired? You slept very soundly."
"It should be." Kumano scratched his hair, a little embarrassed.
Zhou Ji hardly talked to the people in the tribe before, because he was not very good at talking at that time, but he talked to Xiongye a lot in the past two days, and the speech became smoother: "You drink some soup, you can take the barbecue with you to eat on the road. ."
"Thank you... But don't forget to bring the barbecue, the taste of the meat will attract carnivorous dinosaurs." Kumano said.
Zhou Ji heard what Kumano said, and suddenly realized that orcs are not at the top of the food chain in this world.
There are all kinds of dinosaurs in this place. That being the case, the Tyrannosaurus Tyrannosaurus Carcharodontosaurus with a body length of more than ten meters must also exist. Compared with these dinosaurs, even if humans can become beasts, they are very small...
And he remembered that the largest dinosaur was thirty or forty meters long.
Zhou Ji was thinking so, and Xiong Ye had already eaten all the broth and barbecue. At this time, Xiong Bai also came.
"It's delicious! Kumano, are you eating barbecue?" Xiong Bai asked.
"Zhou Ji made me barbecue and broth." Kumano said.
Only then did Xiong Bai look at Zhou Ji: "You are quite good! In the future, if you live here in Kumano, you must take good care of Kumano!"
Zhou Ji nodded, but Kumano said, "I don't need anyone else to take care of me."
Xiong Bai said: "Kumano, he lives in your cave, he should have cooked something for you... We're running out of time, let's go."
Kumano nodded, washed the stone pot briefly, and then said, "Let's go."
After Xiong Ye and Xiong Bai left, Zhou Ji didn't bring anything and climbed down from the hole.
The rain has stopped today, but there is no sun. Looking at the weather, it is estimated that it will rain in the afternoon.
Zhou Ji didn't care either and walked out slowly.
No one stopped him, but someone looked at him enviously.
"Zhou Ji is so lucky to be able to live with Kumano."
"Kumano is the most generous, maybe he will give him the food."
"But he's so lazy, Kumano will hate him sooner or later..."
…
When these people were talking, Yangsu ran out of nowhere and spat at Zhou Ji.
Zhou Ji avoided, this bear child is really annoying, no, this is not a bear child, this is a sheep child...
Sheep Su fell again inexplicably, and fell into a pile of feces, making him sick and vomiting.
Zhou Ji went outside the tribe, and the spiritual power spread out around the body to observe the surrounding situation.
He looks leisurely and walks slowly, but the speed is actually not slow, because every step he takes, he walks in the right place, and he is not tripped by the plants even once, and even the plants will cushion him. Under his feet, let him walk smoothly.
He just walked like this, as if he was walking, and the whole person was completely integrated into the forest.
Along the way, he encountered some small dinosaurs only the size of turkeys, and some snakes, worms, mice and ants. He watched with great interest, but did not do anything to these little guys.
Living little guy, he likes it when he sees it!
Zhou Ji walked all the way to a huge beehive, and then started... Stealing honey.
He spawned a relatively large piece of bamboo, washed it and made it into a container, and used a slender bamboo tube to steal some honey from the honeycomb.
After collecting a bamboo tube of honey, he continued to walk forward, observing the surrounding plants as he walked, to see if there was anything that could be used.
Whenever he found something that could be used, he would ripen it and get the seeds.
While Zhou Ji was strolling leisurely, Kumano and Huyue Xiongbai came across an elephant bird.
The elephant bird is three meters long, and its weight is similar to that of Kumano's current animal shape, at least four or five hundred kilograms. Its sturdy legs are much thicker than those of Kumano's humanoid.
"The elephant bird is very strong, and its claws are very sharp. It's hard to deal with... Let's change the target?" Xiong Bai suggested that the bird was too big, and its claws were also very sharp.
But Kumano stared at the elephant bird for a while, and finally said, "I want to catch it!"
Huyue was already very belligerent, and when he heard Kumano say this, he was also interested: "I want to catch it too! When I catch it, give me the hair of this bird!"
"Yes." Kumano said, and asked again, "What do you want Mao to do?"
Hu Yue said: "I want to have a child, I have to prepare something to make a nest for him!"
"Who are you going to have a baby with?" Kumano asked curiously.
Huyue said: "I haven't made up my mind yet. I'll talk about it when the salt team comes back." Xiong Ye and Shi Li are the two most powerful men in the younger generation, but some older people in the tribe are still a little more powerful than them. Yes—even if they were about the same shape as them, the older ones were always more experienced.
It was these people who went out to change the salt.
Huyue doesn't look down on men of the same age, and if she wants a suitable partner, she can only find it from the salt changing team.
The three discussed it, and ambush again.
It was also their luck that the elephant bird entered their ambush!
Kumano and Xiongbai jumped on the back of the elephant bird, and as for Huyue, they attacked the elephant bird's neck...
Their attack immediately angered the elephant bird.
The elephant bird flapped its wings and kicked Kumano with its thick legs.
In addition, the thick feathers on its body were also bitten by the tiger moon.
The two sides suddenly fought each other...
In the end, the three of Kumano won, but they were also a little embarrassed by the tossing of elephants.
On Kumano's stomach, a hole was cut open by the sharp claws of the elephant bird.
"This elephant bird is not easy to deal with... Kumano, why do you suddenly want it?" Huyue asked breathlessly.
"This elephant bird... It's delicious." Kumano turned into a humanoid and looked at the wound on his stomach, then smeared some mud on it to stop the bleeding.
Huyue and Xiong Bai: "..." When did you start caring about taste
