Prehistoric Widows Survival [Farming]

Lu Er finally rejected Yong's kindness, and explained carefully that this kitten was not his prey, but his pet.

Seriously expressing his position, it made Xiao Mi, who was considering beating Yong a few times, more or less comfortable.

——Although it is somewhat dissatisfied with the positioning of "pet".

It was difficult for Yong Yi to understand for a while why he still wanted to raise a cub when everyone was working hard and still couldn't get enough to eat, but seeing Lu Er enjoying himself, he didn't insist.

Lu Wei is well aware of the nature of his heavy fuzz control, and he doesn't expect the orcs in this primitive era to understand him, so he only holds Xiao Mi's tender claws and waved at Yong: "In short, Xiao Mi is like my family. , I hope you don't treat it as food."

He was really afraid that one day Xiao Mi would get lost and be caught and roasted by the people in the tribe.

Yong nodded, and glanced at the kitten in confusion. He always felt that there was a hint of danger hidden in its weak body, and the green pupils gave him a somewhat familiar feeling.

The two of them had nothing to say so far, Yong apologized for his blind communication just now, and left. Lu Wei also picked up the white root vegetables again, and carried the cat back to the tent.

In the next few days, I don't know if Huawei was choked by Lu Er's merciless words, and she didn't appear in front of Lu Er at all, which made Lu Er feel relieved a lot.

In the past few days, he has been happily digging holes and filling soil to grow vegetables in his small vegetable garden. Every day, he will reclaim a part of the land, add plant ash, and plant some valuable plants that he has found.

The orcs and sub-beasts of this era basically only focus on collecting food that can fill their stomachs. They only focus on food that is rich in starch or sweet and other sugars. Other types of plants are not touched. bump.

In the past few days, in addition to white root vegetables, Lu Er has also planted plants similar to green onions and ginger, which were originally used to remove the smell of barbecue, and found peppercorns.However, the soybeans he wanted most were still not found, which made him a little disappointed.

Soybean is the most affordable and fertile crop, which is much better than him picking up plant ash by hand.

After observing these few days, Lu Er found that the spiritual water seems to only accelerate the growth and development process, and it doesn't seem to be of much help to the quality of the plants themselves;

The speed of plant growth is also directly proportional to the amount of spiritual water watered. Watering more will grow faster, but after growing to the peak state, watering spiritual water will only keep the plants in that shape, neither withered nor will not grow any further;

And the plants that have been watered with spiritual water will wither quickly and keep their seeds if they are not watered with spiritual water again.

This surprised Lu Wei a bit: From this point of view, wouldn't it be very efficient to use spiritual water to help breed and select the best?

Of course, the premise is that the plants watered with spiritual water have not developed a dependence on spiritual water, and they can mature when watered with ordinary water.

The first batch of white root vegetable seeds were replanted, and Lu Er left a part of the soil ridge without watering the spiritual water, intending to verify whether they could grow and develop normally.

The white root vegetable was bred by Lu Yi at a rate of one to two generations per day. In just a few days, Lu Er improved the white root vegetable a lot.Later, the sweetness of the roots of white root vegetables has been comparable to that of ordinary berries, and there is no need to spit dregs after chewing like sugar cane, which is crisp and sweet.

The white root vegetables bred and tested by spiritual water every day can almost meet Lu Yi's own food needs; but cats are carnivorous animals, drinking some spiritual water is okay, and it is definitely impossible to eat white root vegetables.

Lu You is addicted to sucking cats every day and cannot extricate himself, of course he is not willing to let his little cutie go hungry.It's just that the past few days have indeed been like Huawei's cruel words, and the tribe hasn't even given him a piece of meat.

After thinking for a while, Lu Er took the initiative to go to the nearest tent where he lived—that is, Yong’s family had asked about the food distribution rules in the tribe.

During the day, Yong was not at home, and there was a middle-aged Asian animal in Yong's tent. Lu Er asked his name politely, and learned that his name was "White Beard" and he was Yong's mother-in-law.

Baixu has a gentle personality, and his attitude towards Lu Wei is quite kind: "If you hunt prey, usually the orcs who hunt will get more points, and the rest will be given priority to orcs or sub-beasts with children. Single orcs or sub-beasts, only We can see if there is any remaining share in the end."

This distribution rule is quite reasonable, Lu You nodded thoughtfully, and asked again: "Can you tell me again, how is the hunting situation in the tribe these days?"

Baixu shook his head and sighed: "It's not good, since the leader was seriously injured and the horn died, the prey that can be caught in our tribe has become less and less."

Lu You knew from his memory that this small tribe called "Redwood" basically relied on the two most powerful orcs, the leader and the horn, to hunt. Now that both of them have accidents, the food in the tribe is suddenly stretched. stand up.

I should belong to the meat level with the lowest priority.

Lu You knew it in his heart.He didn't have any objection to this, after all, he really didn't make any contribution to the tribe after passing through.

However, the cat cub was still waiting to be fed at home. Lu You thought about it and asked the older animal: "Can I exchange other food for your meat? The weight will not be lower than meat."

Bai Xu was a little puzzled: "What food?"

Lu You took out the white root vegetables that he had improved and cultivated. Because he planned to exchange white root vegetables for meat in advance, he deliberately took the stream water to wash them, and picked off all the inedible stems and leaves. The white and fat white root vegetables It looks extraordinarily fresh.

The white root vegetable improved by Lu Er is much fatter, and Bai Xu recognized it after looking at it for a long time. He was amazed: "Where did you find such a big white root vegetable?"

Lu You didn't want to expose his small vegetable garden, let alone the existence of the Lingshui Ring, so he smiled and said, "Good luck."

Bai Xu also just asked casually, the sub-beasts can find the food by themselves, he was just surprised, Lu Er used to look timid and lazy, usually hiding in the tent and never going out, he never thought he could be alone Man finds food.

He had heard Yong say that Lu Er had changed a lot before, but he still didn’t believe it. Now that he has met him, he realizes that this young Asian beast, with clear speech and sincere eyes, makes people feel comfortable inexplicably, and has indeed changed a lot. few.

——There is still some meat at home, and it happens that I feel a little uncomfortable eating barbecue these days, so it is not a loss to switch to white root vegetables.

Bai Xu thought for a while, agreed to Lu You's request, took a piece of meat, and exchanged it for three plump white root vegetables.

After sending Lu Er away, Baixu hung up two white root vegetables, then broke one, intending to eat one.

Bai Xu was slightly startled by the unusual feel when breaking off the root. After looking carefully, he found that the white root vegetable Lu Er brought was much more brittle than the white root vegetable he dug up himself, and it could be easily broken off. It is also snow-white, and it looks particularly fresh and tender. It quickly accumulates clear juice, which is about to drip down.

Baixu leaned forward and bit it, the sweet juice in his mouth made him think for a moment that he was eating a fruit picked by the river in autumn, subconsciously took two mouthfuls, and the sweet breath flowed directly from his mouth to his stomach.After chewing, it is not as difficult to chew as ordinary white root vegetables and must be spit out. The crisp roots make a "click" sound in the mouth, and the sweetness stimulates the tongue, making Baixu swallow it unconsciously. , When he realized it again, a whole root of white root vegetable was eaten.

Licking the juice from his lips, the sweet taste made Baixu want to eat another one.

—Is this still white root vegetable?

Baixu was a little surprised. He looked at the white root vegetables he had dug up in the wild yesterday. The appearance was yellow and the roots were hard and tough. It was completely different from the white root vegetables that Lu Er brought over. Don't want to move anymore.

——If white root vegetables are as crunchy, sweet and refreshing as the one I ate just now, it seems good to eat white root vegetables every day...

This idea suddenly flashed in Baixu's mind.His teeth are not very good. He eats roasted animal meat every day, and sometimes he feels stagnant food in his stomach; he eats some fruits and white root vegetables, and he feels sour and unbearable. It is better to eat a little once in a while, but eating too much is worse than stagnant food.

Later, you can exchange more meat and green ears for this sweeter white root vegetable.

……

Lu You cooked most of the animal meat exchanged from Baixu for Xiaomi.

In the past few days, in addition to white root vegetables, he also tried to improve the quality of the plants suspected to be green onion and ginger. It is perfect for seasoning and removing fishy smell. Xiaomi eats it very vigorously.

At first, Lu You thought that a kitten like Xiao Mi might not be able to stand the scent of onion and ginger, and wanted to bake a piece of pure natural barbecue for Xiao Mi alone. Unexpectedly, Xiao Mi didn't mind at all, which made Lu Er amazed. The kitten in this world is indeed different from the cat in his previous life.

However, Lu Er discovered a serious problem in the past few days.

There is not much salt left at home.

In the beginning, there was only a little coarse salt powder in a stone plate in this tent. Lu Er occasionally added a little bit of salt to optimize the taste when grilling meat, but the salt was used for a long time, and soon there was not much left.

Salt is very important to maintain daily activities, especially in this primitive tribe period, so after the cold winter, the leader will immediately take the strongest orc in the tribe to change the salt, and then encountered a catastrophe .

The leader was seriously injured, the horn died, and the salt was not brought back. For the time being, the tribe can only rely on the stock of old salt to survive for a while, and then eat more meat and blood of wild animals.

Lu Er did know some indigenous methods to make salt, but this tribe didn't have pottery jars, and there was no saline-alkali land nearby, so they couldn't make salt even if they wanted to.

He also asked Baixu, and Baixu told him that everyone in the tribe didn't have much salt now, and planned to organize another salt exchange in the next few days.At that time, everyone in the tribe can claim the basic share, and if they want more, they can exchange it for food.

The salt of the Redwood tribe is traded in a tribe called "Black River" through distant hills, mountains, and rivers.In previous years, it was organized by the leader and Jiao, but this year, Yong and Zhong will go together.

Since the tribe will change the salt, Lu Er can rest assured.

Then he could trade white root vegetables for some salt.

He did not touch the remaining salt for the time being. These days, he chose to supplement the salt with the aerial roots of some plants growing beside the stream.Although the air root juice was bland and had no salty taste, it still contained a little salt, which could barely support Lu Yi's body.

However, the salt exchange activity in the tribe encountered setbacks before it even started.

When the leopard-shaped Yong was carried back, Lu Er happened to be at home. Hearing the noise outside, he went out to take a look, and saw Baixu holding the beast-shaped Yong crying, surrounded by people There are several orcs and sub-beasts.

Lu You walked over, just in time to see that leopard was sticking out its tongue to lick the wound of its broken leg, and there was a painful panting sound in its throat, one forelimb was dripping with blood, and the lower half was bent abnormally, obviously the leg bone was broken .

Xiao Mi was held in Lu Wei's arms, and she took a look at Yong's injured leg, feeling a little pity: If a leg is broken like this, Yong is basically finished.Even if he didn't die from the rotten wound, it would be impossible to stand up and hunt again later.

The leopard himself had obviously thought of this too, the dark brown eyes of the animal were full of pain and despair.

As soon as Lu You approached, suddenly a figure sprang out from the crowd, rushed to him, grabbed the animal skin on his body, and cursed loudly: "Lu Er! It's you, the disaster star, not to mention killing the leader and Jiao, Now Yong is injured again!"

The author has something to say: talk about the small setting of this article~

The cubs of the orcs call their parents, the orcs are called "father", and the sub-beasts are called "mufu".

There is no title of "Dad", so Xiaomi still doesn't know what it means for Lu Er to call himself Dad.

But in the future, hehe.
