The yellow-orange-orange fried egg was cut into two by the stone knife. Regardless of the scalding, he grabbed a piece and stuffed it into his mouth.

"Oh, it's delicious... Hiss, it hurts!"

After wolfing it down, he was so hot that he gasped. He turned his head and looked at his good brother beside him. Why didn't he cry out for pain?

Cheng Yang held two straight thin wooden sticks that had been peeled, picked up half a piece of fried egg and handed it to his mouth, blowing gently before opening his mouth.

The familiar smell of eggs spread in his mouth, and Cheng Yang squinted his eyes in enjoyment. Even eating fried eggs has become a big deal for him now.

The two of them ate heartily, the corners of their mouths were stained with egg scum, and they didn't bother to clean up, they hurriedly reached out to the fried eggs on the slate.

Soon, the fried eggs were eaten by the two of them.

Cheng Yang and Meng stared at the remaining eggshells on the ground.

Suddenly thinking of those eggs that he spoiled before, he really wanted to give himself a wooden stick, he had never eaten such delicious food!

After satisfying his hunger, Cheng Yang wiped his mouth with satisfaction, and quickly put away the tableware.

If you find something delicious next time, you can continue to use it!

He grabbed Cheng Yang, who was about to turn around, so hard that he staggered and almost fell.

"What are you doing, let go!"

Holding the tableware in his arms vigilantly, he has every reason to suspect that this person wants to steal his treasure, and he has no ability to refuse.

He smiled flatteringly at Cheng Yang, but it didn't work, the vigilance in his eyes was even more serious.

"Say something!"

If you want to ask for tableware, absolutely not, it took him a long time to polish it!

"I still want to eat eggs..."

Cheng Yang rolled his eyes angrily, nonsense, who doesn't want to eat?

Quietly leaning towards Cheng Yang's side, Cheng Yang looked at him vigilantly, leaning so close, what do you want to do?

"I know where there are eggs, let's get some more."

He spoke in a very low voice, apparently afraid that others would hear him and come over to grab him.

Hearing that there were still eggs, Cheng Yang didn't clean up the tableware, anyway, he would use them later when he came back.

Hurry up and follow the fierce steps to find the eggs.

The two walked towards the dense forest, but they didn't go deep, but wandered around the forest. There were many bushes nearby, and there were some fruits that Cheng Yang had never seen before. Most of the women in the tribe collected them here. Meng and Cheng Yang usually work here as well.

"What are you doing again!"

He stared angrily at the women in front of him, his eyes widened and his expression fierce.

"Meng, what are you doing, scare me!"

Ya patted her chest, expressing that she was surprised by the sudden shout, and she looked at the two with dissatisfaction, "Where did you just run off to? You didn't collect with us."

Ya is the daughter of the tribal leader, about the same age as Meng, and she is still a girl, but at the moment she is aggressive.

"You guys know how to play all day long, hurry up and pick the fruit, or else I will let your father not give you food!"

Cheng Yang looked at the little Lolita in front of him. Although she is the daughter of a headman, her class has not yet been produced, so there is nothing special about her. Her skin is tanned, and her muscles are strong due to long-term harvesting and labor. She is fit and handsome, like most people in the tribe, but the animal skin on her body looks better than most people, and there is a necklace made of various beautiful small stones hanging around her neck.

Meng was not afraid of Ya's threats at all, he was nervous about Ya and the eggs in the hands of the women around her.

Although this is the outer area of ​​the dense forest, there are many traces of animal life. Cheng Yang even thinks that there are probably more animals than humans today, so eggs are often seen in this outer area.

But just now, when Meng and Cheng Yang discovered this place, they saw Ya and a few women smashing broken eggs on the floor, and the egg whites flowed everywhere.

Looking at the white and yellow piece on the ground with heartache, at this moment, I can finally understand the pain of being a sheep before, such a delicious food, so spoiled?

Food is the most precious property in the tribe. Every year, people in the tribe will starve to death because of lack of food, so the tribe members in the tribe will never waste food.

As long as there is food, everyone is very satisfied. They never pay attention to whether it is delicious or not. Of course, if they eat meat, the tribe will definitely be happy, because meat can make people strong.

And Meng Meng, who ate fried eggs for the first time, thought it was a delicacy in the world, better than meat. After all, Cheng Yang put oil in the fried eggs, while the roast meat was black and dry, not to mention oil, it was Everyone is very reluctant to use salt.

So at this moment, the behavior of Ya and the others is a heinous crime in Meng's eyes. They not only spoil the food, but also spoil the delicious food!It is simply unforgivable!

Looking at Ya fiercely and accusingly, "Do you know what you have done? You are ruining food! You are ruining such delicious things! You are too much!"

Ya, who was bombarded, was stunned. She didn't know what happened, but she quickly grasped the key word, spoiling food?delicious?

She doesn't pay attention to whether it's delicious or not, but food is very important. She grabbed Meng's arm, "Where is the food?"

Meng Meng, who was stuck in the shell, quickly covered his mouth. He actually revealed that the eggs were edible. He was sad, and he would never be able to secretly eat delicious food in the future.

Cheng Yang didn't know about Yuzu's fierceness. He found that eggs are really common nowadays. From the eggshells in this place, it can be seen that Ya and the others smashed a lot. He walked up and told the few people in front of him that the eggs were edible personal.

"Eggs are edible?"

"I've never heard of it..."

"It's not surprising, after all, beasts can eat, and eggs are their cubs..."

People in the tribe knew that the eggs were laid by animals, but they didn't know what kind of animals they were. Except for the eggs dug out from the branches, they thought they were laid by wild animals.

After all, they have never raised domestic animals, and they don't know that many wild animals are actually mammals.

Cheng Yang didn't know much about the animals that lay eggs. The common ones were birds, and many of the eggs picked up by the tribe were picked up from the grass.

Could it be a snake egg?But I have never seen such a big snake egg.

Cheng Yang looked at the eggs that had survived from Ya's hand, and he kept muttering in his heart. Some of these eggs were as big as an adult's fist, and some had patterns and spots on their shells. These spots seemed to be there, not scoundrel.

But all eggs are edible, that's for sure.

Because the tribesmen believed that the eggs were the cubs of wild beasts, and when they saw the eggs, they basically smashed them to avoid giving birth to little beasts.

Knowing that the eggs are edible, Ya was very annoyed. She looked at the eggshells that she had smashed all over the floor, feeling depressed, and glared at Cheng Yang angrily.

"Why didn't you tell me earlier!"

Cheng Yang rubbed his nose and decided not to argue with this little girl who tends to lose her temper.

"Give us these eggs, and you will collect wild fruits."

Ya didn't say anything, and looked at the boy in front of her with distrust.

"Can you two do it, don't break the egg..."

After knowing that the eggs were edible, Ya's attitude towards them changed suddenly. She smashed them on purpose before, but now she is careful not to break them.

He rushed forward, picked up the few surviving eggs, and when his eyes swept over the eggshells on the ground, he was still very distressed, "Look at how many good things you have ruined..."

Obviously, he forgot that he had also smashed a lot.

Ya and the women were in charge of collecting wild fruits, and Cheng Yang and Meng followed behind them, looking for all kinds of eggs in the grass.

Meng felt a little depressed. He and Cheng Yang couldn't eat delicious food secretly in the future, but thinking that more people in the clan could eat food, that little regret was nothing.

There are really a lot of eggs in this dense forest. It didn't take long before Cheng Yang and Meng hugged a lot.

Cheng Yang looked at the egg in his arms, and said to Meng, "Let's go back first!"

Hearing Cheng Yang said that he wanted to go back to the tribe, he was a little bit reluctant, looking at the big forest in front of him,

"There are still a lot of eggs in it, shall we pick some up?"

"If you pick it up again, it's easy to fall to the ground. When the time comes..." Remembering that there are no chickens yet, Cheng Yang changed his words, "We have picked up too much, and we can't take it back. It's also a waste. Why don't we put it here and bring it back tomorrow?" Many people came to pick it up."

Ya also nodded in agreement, "He's right, it's getting dark now, you go back quickly and give this egg to Uncle Fenglei, maybe we can still eat it when we go back."

I really didn't want to go back, but Cheng Yang and Ya both spoke, and the other women also agreed with their point of view, so they could only walk back reluctantly.

But thinking of the omelet he ate before, he sucked his saliva, and suddenly couldn't wait.

But Cheng Yang was thinking about how to cook the eggs properly. Fried eggs would definitely not work. There are three to four hundred people in the tribe, and he and Meng only picked up twenty or thirty eggs. If fried eggs were not enough, they would not be enough.

It can cook soup, Cheng Yang knows that there are five very large stone pots in the tribe, which are rarely used, and are only used to cook soup in winter.

Because winter is cold, and most wild animals hibernate, it is difficult to hunt wild animals, so in winter, food saved in summer and autumn is generally eaten. In order to save money, they often boil a pot of soup and put some dried fruits and dried meat. , and then one piece for each person.

Cheng Yang came here in summer and hadn't experienced the winter in the tribe, but after hearing Meng's talk, he immediately understood the importance of storing food, otherwise people would really starve to death in winter.

And an orphan like him who has no father or mother, no one to help him, is even more dangerous.

Therefore, it is urgent to increase production for the tribe.

When Cheng Yang was worried about his own life, the leader of the tribe was also very worried.

At the end of the day, several hunting teams only hunted five beasts in total, and they were still small ones. If this continues, how can there be enough food in winter?

It's autumn now, and the weather is getting colder every day. Thinking of those people who froze to death last year, the headman is very irritable. There are few wild animals, not only not enough food, but also animal skins. Without animal skins, how can we keep out the cold?

The headman sighed deeply, thinking of the mountain king he had hunted before, he felt a little comforted. The mountain king is indeed terrifying, but it also has a lot of meat. It is so big and has a lot of meat.

However, thinking that there is still a mountain king in the dense forest, he is a little worried. The few wild animals hunted today are largely due to the fact that the tribe is afraid of the mountain king and dare not enter the depths of the dense forest. If this continues, there will be fewer and fewer prey.

How can it go on like this, alas, the more the headman thought about it, the more upset he became, and he walked back and forth with his head bowed and his hands behind his back, while at this time a person in the distance was approaching.

"Headman, good news! Cheng Yang found something good again!"

Hearing this, he turned his head in surprise and asked impatiently, "What is it?"

"Food! It's food!"

The headman's eyes widened, he couldn't believe it, and then he was ecstatic.

Cheng Yang is indeed his lucky star!
