Lying on the tree, I saw a few lazy chicks packing their luggage with hunger, and the two pheasant bodyguards almost died of laughter. Xiao Hei from Baixiong's family really has a way!In the past, when the chicks in the tribe went out to practice, what they were most afraid of was that they would be lazy and refused to hunt. Now, Xiao Hei told them with cruel reality that if they don’t work, they will have nothing to eat. Foraging in the wild, the parents only brought them flint and some boiled animal fat, and nothing else. If the chicks don’t want to be hungry, they can only find food in the wild.

Sure enough, after rummaging through the luggage, they couldn’t find any edible food. The chicks were a little desperate. In the end, the chicks who stayed in the camp to pick wild vegetables couldn’t bear to see them starve, so they secretly stuffed roasted bracken into the Xiao Hei also pretended not to see the chickens in the box, and let them gobble up the bracken.

For the next itinerary, everyone was obviously more serious and cautious than the first day. They began to imitate Xiao Hei, picking wild vegetables and edible mushrooms that they saw on both sides of the road as they walked, and throwing them into their own bags. In straw baskets, when they arrived at the next camp, the nine chicks actually picked a lot of wild vegetables, mushrooms and small fruits on some low bushes.

"Okay, I'll spend the night here tonight. According to yesterday's arrangement, the two of you are going to collect firewood. The two of you are responsible for guarding the camp. Wash and dry these wild vegetables and mushrooms, and the others will go hunting with me." Xiao Hei put down his luggage and ordered.

This time, no one dared not to listen to him, especially those who participated in the hunt. They suffered a loss once, and now they are terribly afraid of Xiao Hei, for fear that if they don't perform well, they will be hungry at night.

"Let's make some traps first, as you saw yesterday, because no food was prepared at night, and everyone worked hungry the next morning. This is not acceptable. If you encounter any danger, you will have no energy to escape. So, today we are going to make a few traps and put them here, and see if we can catch prey tomorrow morning."

As he said that, Xiao Hei cut off some long grass with his sharp claws, and began to teach a few chicks how to weave snap traps. This trick was learned when he watched his elder brother do it. Everyone in the tribe thought that his elder brother would not hunt them There is no fresh meat to eat. In fact, it is not the case. The eldest brother will make very clever traps and place them deep in the grass. If you are lucky, you can catch hares or wild ducks. Although they are not big, they are enough for him and the eldest brother to have a full meal. It's over.

After the trap was set, Xiao Hei led them to find a river beach full of rocks.

"Xiao Hei, are you still catching loach today?"

"No, today we are catching stone crabs and frogs." Xiao Hei explained to them as he walked, "Stone crabs usually hide under stones, and when they are lifted, they will run very fast. If they find them, they will peck them to death immediately and throw them into the basket. You can’t catch them alive. Stone frogs can jump very far, and whether you can catch them depends on whether you can run faster than them.”

"Xiao Hei, what are you talking about? How can our pheasants not be able to outrun the stone frog? But, can the stone frog eat it too?" As carefree cubs, chicks also had their own toys when they were young, such as stone frogs. Frogs are often caught by the adults in the tribe for them to play with. Firstly, they can exercise their skills of biting prey, and secondly, they can also pass the time. Stone frogs are not dangerous.

Yun Xiao sneered slightly, many of the stone frogs that were caught as toys were dying, of course they couldn't run fast, but you ignorant chicks will soon know how fast the stone frogs in the wild run.

Sure enough, the chicken chicks who were ambitious at the beginning to catch many stone frogs to eat back fell into the rubble pile with black noses and swollen faces after a while. The chicks scrambled and bit for a long time, not to mention not catching any of them, and even threw themselves to pieces. After a while, they were so tired that they collapsed on the stone, almost turning into a dead chicken.

"Get up! Go catch the stone crab!" Xiao Hei walked over and kicked them, driving the chicks up to catch the stone crab. Big and small stone crabs, pheasants were played around by stone frogs just now, and now they are holding their breath. I heard that they can't keep alive. When they see stone crabs, they just take a bite, peck the crab shell and throw it into the basket they carry with them In a short while, they caught quite a few, Xiao Hei also caught two water snakes, and the group returned with a full load, the chicks with their small breasts sticking out high, their tails almost raised to the sky with pride.

However, how to eat stone crabs?It's all shells, it seems that there is no meat.

Seeing a pile of stone crabs with miserable appearance, the chicks looked at Xiao Hei in embarrassment.

"Smash the leaves of the ash vegetable and the yellow heart and purple lotus that have been washed just now, and pickle these stone crabs first." Xiao Hei ordered.

While the chicks were busy marinating stone crabs, Xiao Hei had already set up several simple grills with stones. There was a fire under each grill, and a stone slab on top. Brush, scoop up a little meat oil to brush the surface of the slate, and then put the marinated stone crabs on it, so that the baked crabs will not be mushy, and the baked time is a little longer, and the crab shells on the outside are all crispy He can eat them all, without wasting any of them. He took the two snakes and made a soup with grass seeds. The pheasant almost couldn't help but ran out.

They also want to eat the food made by Bai Xiong. Unfortunately, since the patriarch and Bai Xiong fell out, they have rarely been able to eat it. The patriarch really is, isn't it just a little prey?They didn't mind letting Baixiong choose prey with them first. Why did the patriarch stick to the centuries-old rules?

The stone crab with a crispy shell is roasted. When you peck it, the outer crab shell will be broken. It is very delicious to chew. Because of the protection of the crab shell, the crab meat inside is still very tender, not much meat, but it is very delicious. Chicken chicks I ate to my heart's content. After all, it was the food I had worked hard for. Everyone cherished it and ate all the edible parts one bite at a time.

There were a lot of stone crabs caught, but Xiao Hei did not roast the rest, and kept it for breakfast the next morning, so that they could set off immediately after eating in the morning.

When Xiao Hei took ordinary chicks outside the tribe to experience life, Bai Xiong was not idle either.After the house is built, the furnishings and decorations inside need to be properly adjusted.

Bai Xiong made a new batch of mud bricks, and used the dried mud bricks to build an earth kang on the side of the house, without reserving a kang hole, because he knew that he and Xiao Hei would not live here until the cold snow season , It was so simple to build an earth kang, with small holes reserved on the four sides, and four straight small tree trunks were installed, ready to make a twine mosquito net and hang it on.

The weather is getting hotter and there are more mosquitoes. Bai Xiong knows that pheasants are very afraid of mosquito bites. Now sometimes at night, he is weaving twine mosquito nets and transplanting some wild wormwood and wild mint around the house.

Because there is no way to cut down those thick trees, most of the furnishings and furniture in the house are built with mud bricks. A semi-open, rectangular stove, one side is a suggested hearth built with mud bricks, and a stone pot is placed on it, which can be used to boil water and cook soup. You can also grill meat on the slate, which is very convenient.Baicao came over to look at it once, and when they went back, they transformed their own stove into this look.

Everyone in the tribe is busy renovating their stoves, but Bai Huan does not move at all, because Bai Xiong has already discussed with her in private, and when the harvest season ends this year, he will move with Xiao Hei, and the people in the tribe The earthen house he built with his own hands was left to Bai Huan, and of course it was not for free. Bai Huan would make a batch of medicines commonly used in the tribe in exchange. Bai Huan liked the house built by Bai Xiong very much, but , she still persuaded Baixiong several times, hoping that he could stay. The clansmen would not talk about quarreling, they would fight until they lost their hair when they had nothing to do, and it would be fine after a while. Insist on leaving the tribe.

Bai Xiong couldn't explain to her that the Three Views didn't fit the modern concept, so he simply didn't explain it, and let them think he was a small-minded person. Anyway, he is already a demon now, and demons are self-willed and reckless. They have been banned in this continent, and they have not restrained themselves much. He didn't fight Bai Ying head-on, it was because of Bai Cao's face.

During the few days waiting for Xiao Hei to come back, Bai Xiong made another rattan suitcase, took it to the tribe and exchanged it for an adult wild boar, cut off the wild boar and four pig legs, cured it, and prepared it for bacon. The rest of the big bones, pig's head and pig's internal organs were all eaten, and a pair of pig's ears were specially reserved for Xiao Hei's return to give him extra meals.

Recently, Baixiong discovered a new condiment for marinated meat. It is the fruit of a plant. After being crushed, it turns into dark brown end seeds, with a little spicy taste and antiseptic effect. Baixiong dried the marinated pork After it is half-dried, put a layer of the end seeds of this plant on it, and then put it on the fire to smoke slowly. The finished bacon has a nice spicy smell, and it is not easy to spoil. The key is that it only takes a long time A little less salt can make a lot of bacon. Bai Xiong saw that no one in the tribe knew this fruit, and had never eaten it, so he simply named it wild star anise, which is easy to remember.

Because this kind of wild star anise is especially suitable for cured meat, and there are a lot of them near the tribe. Baixiong didn't hide it. He told Baicao and the others about it, and he picked a lot of it, dried it, crushed it, and kept it. Use it slowly in the future.

On the last day of the first experience, the atmosphere in the tribe became obviously tense. Early in the morning, Bai Ying personally took people to the forest to catch fresh prey, and went to the river to catch some fresh fish. Bai Cao knew that she Unable to save face and begged Bai Xiong, he went to find Bai Xiong by himself, saying that the boys who went out for training today were coming back, and worried that the boys would not be full and hungry outside, so they asked him to help make some delicious food. Xiaohei also wants to eat.

Bai Xiong agreed with a smile, and he could have a big meal for free, why not?
