Rebirth in Another World: Beginning of the Orcs

Chapter 28:

The constant tightness in the chest forced Lixia to wake up from his dream.

When he opened his eyes, he saw a ball-shaped black hairy ball standing on his chest, chasing his tail in circles and circles. The speed of running fast and slow made Lixia think of a continuously variable transmission.This little ancestor is getting bolder now.Li Xia had no choice but to lament inwardly that the dream that was forced to be interrupted before it was finished was full of delicious food.When it comes to eating, what should I do to eat today?

Yadi, who was playing high, suddenly met Li Xia's eyes staring at him, and suddenly jumped back with three legs in the air, not surprisingly, he rolled and landed on the animal skin quilt beside him.After trembling for a while with black hair all over, there was a chubby milk doll on the bed.The arms and legs are like lotus root joints, and the layers of breast meat and belly meat are comparable to those of Michelin tires.At this moment, this little doll is staring at Li Xia with a pair of green eyes, and the small eyes with picky eyes and the fleshy double chin are indescribably flattering.

"Mother and father~" Cengceng, but it's hard to rub.

"..." Li Xia, who was under heavy pressure on his chest again, almost squeezed out the air in his lungs, took two sharp breaths before recovering.This is the way the eyes are opened, isn't it?He was obviously just looking at the child's emaciation and wanted to supplement it. Why did he look like a steamed bun after only two months... He had to self-examine, this round child who was like a ball was fed by himself.

In Lixia, a carp turned over and threw the fat baby into the quilt, scratched it up and down for a while, seeing the trembling child begging for mercy and laughing loudly in the quilt, then put away his teasing heart, and slapped the little fat baby hard He kissed twice.Thinking about the timid child two months ago, Li Xia felt that it would be better for the child to be cheerful.

Lixia went outside to wash up and took care of Yadi. Maybe the orc has a strong recovery ability. In just over two months, Yadi's arm is almost healed. The wound on the broken arm has healed well. The grown skin was tender and could not withstand friction, and Lixia took medicine from Molinda every day to scrub and bandage him, which also speeded up his recovery.

Two people, one big and one small, stood in the open area of ​​the yard and started the daily radio gymnastics, such as chest expansion exercises and stretching exercises in turn.Speaking of it, this is the exercise I used to do when I was in school, and I have almost forgotten it now, but Li Xia still thinks about it and restores it.The reason is to rehabilitate Yadi's broken arm.Every time Li Xia thinks of Ernst's unbearable leg pain in the rainy season, he feels sad. If someone had been able to use exercise and massage to restore him, Ernst's leg would not be as it is now.Not to mention Ernst, Yadi is still young, so in order for the muscles in his wound to be full and not atrophy, it is necessary to use the remaining limb functions to maximize its effectiveness, so as to improve its ability to take care of itself.

After exercising, the sweaty Yadi started his day of jumping up and down again.Such a big child is just the age to play with cats and dogs, because he can't transform after applying the medicine, Li Xia, who was cooking, turned around and saw the little fat man dragging a tree branch behind the gulu bird Chasing scene.The bird in the front ran hard with a loud voice, and the children in the back were wheezing and whistling.

Ernst and Wagbuck went to the forest in the morning.After a rainy season, the plants in the forest grew more and more luxuriantly. The vines of the plants hung in disorder among the branches of the trees. The road under the feet was still difficult to walk, and the whole forest was sultry like a steamer.A few days ago, Li Xia said that the corn should be ripe and they would come to have a look first. The three of them carried rattan baskets behind their backs. There are no other fungi in the forest that like warm and humid temperatures, but they can be seen everywhere. Now every basket is full of corn. fungus and mushrooms.

After the earthquake, Lixia gave cabbage and radish seeds to the tribe through Ernst, and destroyed the family’s new grain reserves Jianjian, Lixia's character value has been greatly improved in the tribe, and the tribe has gotten rid of their prejudice against him. Now he goes out and goes everywhere in harmony. Ernst is very happy for him when he sees it.

"Ernst, is it true that your Lixia said that this corn can satisfy one's hunger in the snow season just like the previous wheat and rice?"

"Of course." Just because they haven't eaten it doesn't mean that Ernst hasn't eaten it. Think about that corn on the cob that's been brushed with oil and roasted, tsk tsk~" Li Xia said that this can be roasted and eaten, or ground into flour pancakes or boiled corn Porridge."

"That's really a good thing. Since he became the messenger of the beast god, we've really eaten more. If we hunt more prey before the snow season, maybe we can spend the snow season safely."

The three of them discussed all the way and soon arrived at their destination.Tall green plants stand tall in the valley facing away from the tribe, and the valley on the other side is the place where they harvested wheat before, which will have been covered by layers of grass.

The stem of the plant in front of me is thick and tall, and there are large green leaves that roll like waves on both sides of the segmented stem nodes. Between the petioles and the stem nodes, there are layers of wrapped fruits like large textile shuttles. , from the naturally cracked side, golden grains are hidden under the top of the brown beard.Ernst has seen the corn plants in the Lixia space more than once. The corn field in the forest grows densely, the distance between the plants is very small, and the corn stalks are not as strong as in the space, but the corn cobs are not small, one foot long Long, when you press the corn kernels with your hands, there is still a sense of elasticity when your nails dig in.At this time, the corn is just right to break off and go home to eat or make soup. If you want to grind it into cornmeal or something, you have to wait a few days for it to be completely ripe and dry.

"That's it. You see, just break the corn like this..." Ernst stepped forward and grabbed the corn cob with one hand and pulled the corn stalk with the other hand, rotating the corn cob vigorously, and when the cob was about to leave the corn stalk, he pulled the corn stalk vigorously. The corn cob was pulled back, and with a "pop", the big corn cob fell into his hand.

The two people on the side watched the demonstration a few more times and got started quickly. They were buried in the green cornfield within a few clicks.The three orcs broke up in a hurry, and the rattan baskets they brought were filled with mushrooms. At this time, each of them had a few Domi vine "bags" with corn cobs tied on them.Since the corn can't be harvested these days, let's break some fresh ones and go back to enjoy the mouth.Although Wag and Buck had never eaten corn, they both believed that Lixia's cooking would be very good after they had experienced Lixia's cooking.

A jar of fragrant braised pork is gurgling and bubbling under the roasting fire.Li Xia was defeated by the little man who was staring at the pot with longing eyes, and helplessly picked out a piece of roasted sauce red meat with five layers of meat from the pot and blew it a few times before sending it into the already He leaned into the wide open mouth in front of him.

Yadi was not afraid of being scalded, so he bit the piece of meat on the tip of the chopsticks into his mouth with one bite. His two bulging cheeks moved up and down, his oily mouth made a noise, and finally he narrowed his eyes with a happy face. .Seeing his cute appearance, Li Xia hugged him again and kissed him.

Over the past few months, the fermented soy sauce that Lixia put in the space has also been successfully made. Koji making, tank filling, salt water exposure, stirring, and filtration, all of which survived did not exhaust Lixia to death, but the results obtained The result is still very gratifying.It was the first time that this jar of braised pork was cooked with soy sauce today, and Li Xia couldn't help but put a small piece in his mouth and chew it slowly.Sure enough, although the braised pork that I made before was also good, the one with soy sauce this time has a more homely flavor.

Snow-white sourdough steamed buns are steaming in a large pottery pot beside it.People in Chinese cities seldom steam steamed buns by themselves. There are many steamed bun shops on the streets that save them the trouble of steaming steamed buns by themselves, and Lixia is no exception.When Lixia first made flour, he only thought of noodles, dumplings and other foods that don’t need to be processed, but people are like this, the more they can’t eat, the more they think about it. As a complete northerner, I don’t eat it for a few days A steamed bun will be terribly uncomfortable.That's why Li Xia broke a pot of noodles and planned to steam steamed buns by himself. Even if the noodles were dead, it should look like steamed buns.

It was also because the blind cat ran into a dead mouse, and Lixia was so disturbed by the incident after finishing the noodles. It had been two days since I remembered the noodles. It was raised by itself, and the honeycomb holes in the dough were very evenly peeled off by hand, and it only smelled of the slightly sour smell of the dough itself.I heard people say that we need to save yeast noodles to speed up the fermentation time next time. Li Xia cut a piece and saved the rest for steamed buns. Who would have thought that the extraordinary success of making steamed buns made Li Xia move out two seaweeds? tears.After that, Ernst's steamed buns were added to the meals more and more times as a staple food.

Yadi, who had turned into a little doll, clung to Lixia's back and refused to get off. Lixia was not annoyed, turned around and went into the house, took a piece of animal skin of suitable length, wrapped the child in front of his chest, tied a strong knot, and then went to cook , Yadi was also happy to let Lixia carry it on his back, and stroked Lixia's tied hair with his hands with a smile, and rubbed his small face from time to time.Every time Lixia wanted to cut her hair short, she would be stopped by Ernst's words "You look so good-looking", and it took more than half a year for Lixia's hair to grow to the back.

Ernst saw such a scene when he came back with a full harvest and opened the door.Through the kitchen window, his beloved is busy preparing meals for the family, and the child is lying on his back and playing with one hand while playing with his hair.The sunlight shone across the window sill and fell on the side face of the lover, as if it was coated with a layer of golden light, and the soft down on the cheeks could be clearly seen.The slightly upward smile on the corner of the mouth is even more sacred, making one unable to help but indulge in it.Ernst suddenly had the urge to touch Li Xia's face and hug Li Xia, and he really did.
