Meng Sheng followed Zhong Kui into Zhong's cave. Zhong Kui and his parents lived in the same cave. Only Zhong Yang moved to the next cave when he became an adult, but he usually eats and drinks in the big cave here. .

Because of the local aborigines, the chief's cave is more than twice as big as his cave, and there are many things in it. Compared with his cave, it has more smoke and life.

What the two caves have in common is that there is a large stone pot on the outside. The best thing is that there is a stone table next to the stone pot. It is wide and flat. It should be a natural stone. It is really suitable as a table.

There were some berries on the stone table, and there was water in a large shell.

Zhong Kui seemed to have noticed his gaze, so he said: "Those shells were exchanged from the trading field, and the next fair will be soon, you can go and exchange some."

Meng Sheng nodded: "Okay."

What he wants is not only these utensils, but also someone who can take care of these things.

"I see that water has been boiled in the stone pot. Where is the meat? Let me teach you how to stew meat with berries."

Zhong Kui smiled when she heard it: "Okay, wait a minute, I'll get it."

The chief's partner, Zhong Yang's mother Shuang, walked into the cave and said, "Ah Yang ate cooked food in your cave last time, and when he came back, he kept telling us how delicious it was, and even asked us to cook cooked food."

"As long as he likes it."

Zhong Kui quickly brought out the meat, and it was still beef. It was estimated that Zhong Yang had told them that he had stewed beef last time. Zhong Kui ran twice, and he probably took all the beef that was distributed last time. When he came out, he didn't think it was too much. After all, there were many people in Zhong's family, and Zhong Yang was also good at eating. Unlike him, the whole family was not hungry when one person was full.

Meng Sheng got a sharp stone tool that was ground relatively thin, and divided the beef into large pieces. He also explained to the two females that the meat was made into large pieces and put into the pot. After the beef was almost stewed, pound the beef. Put it into the pot when it is broken, so that it will be more delicious when cooked.

"Is there any salt?"

Zhong Kui nodded quickly: "Yes, there are quite a few more. Every time Ayang goes to the trade fair, he will exchange a lot of them back."

Meng Sheng ground two large chunks of salt and put it into the pot: "Salt can be seasoned, it is a good thing, only stewed things with salt have taste, you can according to your own taste, when there is a lot of soup, add more , put less soup when there is less soup."

"I didn't expect you to know this." Zhong Kui smiled softly.

Meng Sheng laughed: "When I was nesting in the cave, I did all this and didn't have much contact with the people in the tribe."

"No wonder I haven't seen you much before."

The two were talking, when they heard a heavy object fall outside the cave, they guessed that Zhong Yang had returned, and sure enough, the strong male entered the cave soon.

"It smells so good! I've been thinking about this smell for a long time! Meng Sheng, did you make it yourself!"

Seeing the male whose eyes were about to fall into the pot, Meng Sheng smiled and said, "I have taught Zhongkui and Aunt Shuang the method. If you want to eat, they can make it for you."

"Be loyal!" Zhong Yang grabbed his shoulders.

In the evening, when Zhong’s family had dinner together, Zhong Xin discussed with the two of them that there were three wild animals caught this time. At this food sharing meeting, they wanted to share only one and store the rest for the winter. They can still be hunted now. In a good season for hunting, weaker groups, large and small, can still hunt some animals. If after a while, winter slowly enters, even the strong males will not be easy to hunt animals in the cold season. .

Zhong Yang sandwiched vegetables between Shuang and Zhong Kui, and praised the delicious cooked food cooked by Meng Sheng, while opening his mouth and said: "But there is still a long time before winter, summer is not over yet, food can be stored for so long ?"

Zhong Xin is also worried about this, storage is a big problem, otherwise there will not be enough food in winter, causing some weak people to starve to death.

"Storage is not a problem, but it takes some work." Meng Sheng put down the shell bowl and said.

Zhong Xin's eyes lit up: "Meng Sheng, do you have a solution?"

"Yes, but it needs a lot of salt." Meng Sheng explained the method of smoking bacon to Zhong Xin.

Zhong Xin couldn't believe it: "Salt really has so many uses?"

"certainly."

Zhong Yang said happily: "Then use all the salt in the cave to marinate the meat and smoke it up. Anyway, it won't be long before I can go to the trade fair. Then I can change some more salt and come back. Anyway, last time I I used half of the mutton and replaced it with a lot of salt."

"Then try the method Meng Sheng said. Then I will find a few powerful males to help divide and smoke the animal meat and store it in the collective storage cave."

After eating in Zhongjia Cave, Meng Sheng went back, it was already dark, and it was the first time he walked back at night, not because he was afraid of anything, the night road in the primeval forest was really dark.

When he returned to the cave, it was completely dark, and he sat idle by the fire. He had roasted and eaten the birds that Qiu Juan had shot for him a while ago. Some long beautiful feathers are inserted into the wooden barrels made and placed in the small sleeping cave as decorations.

Perhaps because of the influence of Zhongyang Cave, he actually wanted to fill up the empty cave.

There are still two days before the food sharing meeting, and he doesn't want to hunt these two days. He wants to find bamboo and weave some baskets, otherwise every time he goes hunting, he will encounter some weeds and fruits and want to pick them back. You can't carry many things. If you have a back basket, you can not only hold these things, even if you hunt small prey, you can also put them in the back basket.

So the next day he went out to look for bamboo.

He knew where the bamboo tubes were made in the cave, but those bamboos were too big, and the strips were brittle and easy to break, so they were not suitable for weaving things. He wanted to find some smaller bamboos this time.

When he went out, he didn't make a specific decision on where to go, he was a little aimless, with a dog's tail grass in his mouth, as idle as he wanted.

Walking along, he came to the wide area where Qiu Juan took him to hunt before. Today, there are more natives hunting than before.

"Don't run, don't run!"

A childish sound sounded from behind his buttocks. When he turned around, a badger jumped past him. He turned sideways and pinched towards the haystack, pinching the hairy badger. He kicked back and forth with his hands, struggling fiercely.

It was a little boy who was chasing the badger. Seeing his little prey being taken away by others, he stared straight at Meng Sheng with a pair of bright black eyes.

Qian really wanted to tell the male in front of him that this was his fancy prey, but when he had to raise his head high to see Meng Sheng's face, he didn't dare to speak nonsense.

Meng Sheng looked at the thin little boy in front of him: "Do you know who I am?"

"What if you know, so what if you don't know?"

"Quite tempered." Meng Sheng raised his eyebrows: "If you tell me my name, I'll give you the badger."

The little boy Fox asked, "Really?"

"certainly."

"Your name is Meng Sheng!"

Meng Sheng squinted. He remembered that he didn't have much contact with the natives: "You actually know me?"

"I saw you at the food sharing meeting. The chief said you were a strong male, and I even cheered for you."

After finishing speaking, the little boy's eyes were burning: "When I grow up, I will also become a strong male!"

He is lean and lean, but quite ambitious. Meng Sheng felt that the little boy was interesting, and was about to ask him what his name was, when the little boy suddenly reached out and took Li Badger from his hand, and ran away.

"Hey! Which family are you from?"

The little boy just ran and ignored him.

"His name is Qian, and he is the son of a single male." The gentle voice answered his doubts.

Meng Sheng turned around, it was Zhong Kui.

"It turns out that it is like this. I think it's a pretty good kid."

Zhong Kui looked at the figure running away, showing a look of pity, but after a while, she smiled and asked Meng Sheng: "Are you out hunting?" "No, I want to find out where there are bamboos. Go chop some."

Zhong Kui said: "Then you are going in the wrong direction, the one with bamboo is not here."

Meng Sheng pointed to the east: "You mean those big bamboos over there? I'm not looking for big bamboos, I'm looking for some small ones."

"The little one is also over there, but it will take a while to walk, and I'm fine, why don't I take you there."

Of course it's good to have someone lead the way, Meng Sheng said: "That's great, I'm going to trouble you."

"No trouble, I have to ask you to go to the food distribution field early tomorrow and cook the meat for the weaker animals."

"Don't worry, I'll be there soon."

Zhong Kui is a well-known beauty in the tribe and the chief's daughter. She has many suitors, even the two brothers of the Tang family, who have always been defiant, are polite to her.

But Zhong Kui was very indifferent to everyone and didn't show any interest in any male. Today, being with Meng Sheng attracted the attention of many hunters.

"Bah! This Meng Sheng is too shameless! He actually went hunting with Kui."

"Tang Yu, if you're envious, you can also be ashamed."

Tang Yu spat hard: "What nonsense are you talking about? Let me tell you, you'd better look after the female sub-female you see right. Meng Sheng is too shameless. I saw him and Qiu Juan a few days ago. Hunting together, later he said he wanted to fuck my sister, and today he hooked up with Kwai, like this kind of volatile male, I curse him that he will never find a partner for the rest of his life."

"What did you say?"

Looking at Kong Jia who came up to talk to him, Tang Yu said angrily: "You are still hunting here, don't watch you Qiu Juan... Oh, no, I heard from my father that you and Qiu Juan are going to dissolve the relationship gone."

Several males who were with Tang Yu laughed, usually Kong Jia was carrying it, and had never been able to find a chance to harass him, but now he seized the opportunity to laugh loudly: "Kong Jia, you can't even lose your partner by Meng Sheng Let's go! Hahahaha, it's too miserable."

"Shut up! Nothing."

There was a cold light in Kong Jia's eyes, Qiu Juan and Tang Tong were both related to Meng Sheng, it was hard for him to put on a good face.
