"Now that we know the crux of the problem, this matter can be solved easily. Hehe, wait for the good news." Lin Mu said without knowing what he thought of, and went out with a wicked smile.
Patric looked at Lin Mu happily going out with doting eyes, shook his head, thinking of the other party's sinister smile, and wondered what kind of shocking things Mu Mu would do.
Lin Mu went out to find Lai Si and the others, and generously let the three little tails go up the mountain together. Although the matter of Lai Si is really important, the plan must be carried out step by step. After all, it is the harvest season, and winter is tough, so it is definitely the right choice to store more food.
Everyone carried their own panniers, even Ka Suo and Qiuqiu brought the storage bags specially prepared by Lin Mu for them. They also like to store food very much. Especially Qiuqiu, who hides a lot of nuts and other things that can be stored, making Lin Mu wonder if he has the nature of this hamster.
Every time they go up the mountain, Lin Mu and the others devote themselves to finding new food. Mark the food that can be eaten, and let the orcs collect it. After all, their abilities are limited and they can't memorize so many things.
Think about the food they are storing now, so they don't have to worry about food this winter.
Lin Mu is currently squatting in a cluster of flowers picking flowers. This is a clump of wild chrysanthemums, Lin Mu decided to pick more so that he can drink chrysanthemum tea in the future. Often eating some fried food is easy to get angry, drinking some chrysanthemum tea will be better. Thinking about it in my heart, I explained the function of chrysanthemum to them at the same time.
After listening to Lin Mu's introduction to the efficacy of chrysanthemum tea, the others also picked flowers. Of course, the three little ones who played alone were not counted.
Phil squatted down beside Lin Mu, and whispered to Lin Mu while picking flowers: "Lin Mu, I'm worried that Lace is still in such a distraught state. What's the situation you inquired about?"
Lin Mu looked at Lais who was picking flowers not far from them. Although she wasn't as distraught as Phil said, she was obviously out of shape and worried.
"Don't worry, I've figured out a solution, and it will be resolved soon."
"What way?" Phil asked curiously in a low voice, "I still don't know why."
"Hey, now I want to keep it a secret." Lin Mu winked at Phil and said very tantalizingly.
"What are you two talking about furtively?" Sasha approached him at some point, and was very curious about the way the two whispered.
Lin Mu couldn't help rolling his eyes, "Sasha, the behavior of the two of us can only be regarded as mysterious at best, and it can't be anything to do with sneaking. There is still no improvement in the way we speak."
Seeing that Sasha was despised by Lin Mu, Phil covered his mouth and smiled lightly.
Sasha was dissatisfied, "I'm making great progress, okay. Also, don't change the subject, were you two just discussing the little secret of God's horse, and don't let me know?"
"Secret?" Lin Mu looked at Phil with a playful smile, "Actually, I was betting with Phil just now, when Locke will eat you. I bet before the ceremony."
"I bet after the ceremony." Phil co-operated and teased Sasha.
Sure enough, Sasha blushed after hearing what they said, "You...you two are so perverted." After speaking, he quickly explained the two of them.
Seeing Sasha's embarrassed little face, Lin Mu and Phil both laughed wildly. Sasha couldn't help shouting in his heart: Woohoo...they are all bad guys!
Lais noticed the excitement on their side, and smiled infectedly, feeling much better.
A few people chatted and laughed, and it didn't take long to pick a lot. Several people moved on. And luckily, I came across a piece of honeysuckle, which also has the effect of clearing away heat and reducing internal heat, and can also be used to make tea. Naturally, several people did not let it go.
Lin Mu looked at the almost full pannier. Although it was not heavy, it took up a lot of space. Now even if I find something else, I don't know where to put it. In my heart, I sighed a little because I didn't arrange my backpack reasonably, but it didn't affect my mood. After all, going up the mountain is not just about finding food for them, the most important thing is to relax. After all, it's not good for them to be in the room all the time.
A few people paid attention to the surrounding environment while walking. Phil hoped to find useful medicinal materials and store them more. Sasha hoped to find delicious fruits. Lace paid more attention to edible foods, and Lin Mu paid more attention to them. Focus on finding something new to use, whether it's food or something else.
Suddenly a very strange tree appeared in front of Lin Mu's eyes. This tree was not very tall and had few branches. What made Lin Mu feel strange was the transparent sap on the trunk. The long-term secretion caused the trunk to accumulate more than ten centimeters of cone-shaped transparent condensed sap near the ground.
Lin Mu was curious about what those transparent juices were, and wanted to reach out to touch them, but was held back by Laisi.
"Lin Mu, you can't touch that."
"Why? Because it's poisonous?"
Lace shook her head, "It's not poisonous, but it's sticky."
"Well, those juices are very sticky. I once (touched) my hand out of curiosity, but two fingers were stuck, and I finally cut it with a knife." The painful feeling made Sasha feel lingering fear said. What happened that time made him always stay away from this kind of tree.
After hearing what they said, Lin Mu said, "Is it gum? The effect seems to be very good." Thinking about it, his eyes lit up, "We found something good." Under their suspicious eyes, he took out the bamboo tube and prepared to collect it.
Sasha asked, "Is this useful?" In their view, as long as Lin Mu said something good, it must be very useful.
"It's very useful for woodworking. With glue, you can make a lot of things." He said, holding a bamboo tube and bamboo slices and starting to collect gum.
Several other people also helped, and Lin Mu and the others stopped after collecting two bamboo tubes of gum. Take these back to try first, if it works well, it’s not too late to pick them later.
Just as Lin Mu carefully put the gum he collected in the back basket, he saw Qiuqiu running towards him, grabbing his trousers and tugging, as if he wanted to take him somewhere.
"Qiaoqiu, what did you find again?"
Seeing that Qiuqiu didn't intend to answer him, he followed him.
Sasha, "Qiaoqiu is so smart, I don't know what else he discovered." Thinking that Qiuqiu helped them find the noodles and potatoes, it was a great help to them.
"What Qiuqiu finds is always edible. It seems that Lin Mu is right. Qiuqiu is really a foodie. Hahaha..."
Several people also followed Lin Mu to see what they found.
When Lin Mu and the others followed Qiuqiu to the destination, they found that Misha was gnawing on something the size of a football. Next to it lay a wolf that was also gnawing, while Rhodes (a member of the wandering beasts, responsible for the safety of the females going up the mountain this time) stood by and guarded.
Seeing them coming, Misha waved her hand, "Come on, this is delicious."
Lin Mu's eyes lit up, "Sweet potato?"
Lin Mu hurried over, picked up a piece on the ground, cut it open with a knife, and took a bite. The familiar taste filled his mouth, "It's really a sweet potato."
Sasha, who is the most passionate about food, saw that they had already learned how to eat, and took one to eat, "It's sweet, crunchy, and delicious. This kind of fruit is so strange that it's actually stuck in the soil." .”
"This is not a fruit." Lin Mu said as he peeled two pieces for Lace and Phil to taste.
"This is called sweet potato. It can be eaten as a staple food. It can be stored for a long time if it is stored properly. And there are many ways to eat it. Let's dig some back and I'll make it for you to try." Looking at the big piece in front of me, the harvest is not small. .
For eating, no one has resistance. Hearing Lin Mu's words, they all started to help dig.
Lin Mu looked at the bright green sweet potato leaves, and he started to pick some. Thinking of sweet potato leaf steamed buns, which he misses so much, Lin Mu felt that his saliva suddenly secreted a lot.
Seeing Lin Mu picking sweet potato leaves, he thought it should be a kind of vegetable, so a few people naturally helped to pick them.
Looking at the harvest in their hands, "We are lucky today."
It happened to be lunch time when we returned to the residence. Several people simply washed up after eating and went back to the room to rest. As for the newly discovered sweet potatoes, Lin Mu felt a little tired, so he planned to eat them later.
Although everyone is busy building houses now, the orcs still take a nap. As Lin Mu said, combining work and rest is the best. At this time, Lin Mu was held in Patric's arms, and both of them slept soundly.
When Lin Mu woke up, Patrik had already gone to work. After washing his face to wake himself up quickly, Lin Mu walked out of the room and saw Phil who woke up from sleep.
"Phil, let's deal with the sweet potatoes."
Phil nodded. After all, it was dug out of the soil, and it was covered with a lot of mud.
Pick out some small, slender sweet potatoes individually, ask Mr. Rice, who came out to help, to get angry, and put them all into the pot to cook. Put a few small sweet potatoes under the stove, and the sweet potatoes copied in this way are very delicious.
For dinner, Lin Mu made sweet potato porridge, boiled sweet potatoes, shredded sweet potatoes and sweet potato leaf corn bread. It is very popular, especially the sweet potato leaf steamed bread that everyone can only eat one. The candied sweet potatoes are very refined by a few small ones and Sasha. It can be said that for sweet potatoes, everyone has expressed their liking, and there is another food in their winter grain.
Lin Mu also plans to make some dried sweet potatoes for snacks tomorrow. Of course, he didn't say it out, worried that Sasha, a foodie, would ask him to do it immediately. Cooking food for so many people is tiring even if it is not much.
After dinner, everyone sat around the square to eat and chat, enjoying this wonderful life. Lin Mu quietly pulled Lais away.
Lais was pulled into Lin Mu's room.
"What's the matter, Lin Mu?" Seeing Lin Mu's mysterious look, Lai Si was very puzzled.
"I'm here to relieve your worries. Aren't you worrying about whether Jason likes you or not?" Then he briefly talked about the things Jason was struggling with.
Les was very angry, "Does he really think so?"
Lin Mu nodded, and Laisi looked terribly angry.
"Really, Jason, how could he think that way? Am I not showing enough? I am grateful to him, but who would marry him because of gratitude!..."
"Less, calm down, calm down! Calm down!"
Laisi calmed down and sat by the bed, "Lin Mu, what do you think I should do?"
"Jason is a deadhead. Now he's getting into the horns, thinking that you accepted him because of gratitude. He didn't listen to what Patrik said, but Patrik almost accepted his point of view."
"There is a way." He said this and that in a low voice in Lais's ear.
Lace blushed, "Does it have to be like that?"
Lin Mu nodded seriously, "This is the most direct and the most effective."
"But, I won't..." Laisi blushed so much that she could bleed, and her voice was as low as a mosquito's.
Lin Mu thought for a while, yes, females are so pure, a pure child like Lai Si, he would not take the initiative. In fact, think about it, orcs, aren’t they just beasts? Although he doesn't know how to seduce, but as long as he takes the initiative a little bit, he feels that the orcs will be defeated. So he whispered in Rice's ear again.
"Really?"
"Very true!"
"Does it have to be like this?" Lace still felt embarrassed.
"This is the most direct."
I made up my mind, "Okay then."
Lin Mu made a "V" in his heart, and finally succeeded in persuading Laisi.
Lin Mu's idea to Lace was to let him take the initiative to let Jason eat it. As for whether it's the best way, Lin Mu doesn't know, but it's definitely the fastest way. Moreover, after Lace is eaten, he won't be the only one who was eaten before he got married. How wonderful. (Author: This is Mu Mu's main purpose, so that he is not the only one to be eaten. Lin Mu: Who said that, that is just an additional effect (feeling guilty). Author: No need to quibble, Xiao Mian, I Don't know you yet.)
When Patric came in, he happened to see Lace go out blushing.
"Mumu, what's wrong with Laisi? Your face is so red."
"Hehehe..." Lin Mu laughed wickedly.
"What makes you so happy?" Looking at his proud clothes, she couldn't help scratching the tip of his nose.
"I'll talk about it after I succeed. I won't tell you yet." Lin Mu raised his chin and said proudly.
"Don't tell me if you don't tell me. Do you want to take a bath, and I'll boil the water for you?"
"Yes. You're the best, Patric."
"It's good to know." Patric said and went out to boil water. Lin Mu rolled around happily on the bed.
The next day, as soon as Lin Mu woke up, he ran out to inquire about the situation.
"Phil, is Lace up yet?"
"Ah?" Phil wondered, "I haven't seen him yet, what's wrong?"
"No. I'm going to wash my face." Said and ran away. "I knew it would be late."
Phil looked at Lin Mu's back suspiciously, "What's going on?"
The facts were naturally as Lin Mu thought, Lace hadn't come out all morning, and the curtains in his room were always covered, (the curtains were covered, no visitors were accepted), and Jason brought in the breakfast. Therefore, Lin Mu lamented that his cooking porridge was really right.
I told the puzzled Phil and Sasha about the situation, and then wandered back to the room in the surprise of the two. He decided to lie down a little longer.
