The evening wind blew in the woods, and the leaves in the forest made a rustling sound.

Looking at Zhongli's eyes, Su Yao suddenly realized that he might already be very important to Zhongli.

It turned out to be like this, Su Yao thought:

He takes Zhongli as a partner, but the current state of the two of them has exceeded what a partner should be. Coupled with Zhongli's attitude today, it turns out that Zhongli has already regarded him as a friend.

"Friends are also good," Su Yao weighed inwardly: "It's good to have a reliable friend like Zhongli, but it's a bit more exclusive, but it doesn't matter, it's not a lover anyway." '

After quickly figuring everything out, Su Yao's eyes were clear and gentle: "Me too, I won't betray you."

The night wind was a bit stronger, and Zhongli's half-length hair fell on his face.Zhong Li knew that Su Yao probably didn't understand what he meant, but the good thing was that he felt that Su Yao seldom deceived him.

Zhong Li is very satisfied with this situation.

The two descended the mountain lightly and quickly. On a whim, Su Yao also handed Zhong Li a set of light body exercises, which can be practiced even by people without spiritual roots.

The two experimented in the cave in the middle of the night, combined with the bacon recipe Su Yao read in the book, and finally worked out a preliminary method for making bacon in the wild.

In the second half of the night, in the cave full of bacon and smoke, Su Yao couldn't sleep, so he simply meditated and practiced.Zhong Li was also obsessed with body exercises and didn't sleep all night.

As soon as it was daylight, Su Yao and Zhong Li rushed to the priest's residence, and Zhong Li was still holding a piece of semi-finished bacon in his hand.

After explaining the purpose of the two people's visit, the priest was shocked and asked in disbelief: "Do you really have a way to store meat? Can you keep the meat from smelling?"

"Yes priest, you heard me right." In front of outsiders, Su Yao once again had a clear and handsome look of smiling at Yan Yan: "Although this method is time-consuming, it can keep the meat for a long time without spoiling."

"And best of all, it uses less than half the salt of bacon."

Zhongli silently handed the bacon to the priest like a guard.

"Such a large piece of meat only uses half a bamboo tube of salt, while the salt meat in the tribe needs to use a bamboo tube or even more."

"Ah Huo, go and cook the meat." Su Yao ordered the slave serving the priest.

After a while, the hot boiled bacon was brought to the table. To make sure that the bacon was not poisonous, Su Yao and Zhong Li also sat down and ate it.

The taste of the semi-finished bacon is different from what Su Yao ate before. The taste is more between bacon and bacon, but it can also taste good.

Su Yao is very satisfied with this. After all, due to the constraints of the barbaric conditions, it is already very good to have such results.

The priest was far more satisfied than Su Yao. While devouring the soft and rotten meat, he lamented the beauty of bacon:

"It's delicious, it's delicious. If I ate such delicious meat in the cold winter last year..." the priest paused, and then quickly continued: "What is the envoy going to do?"

Su Yao said solemnly: "The meat reserves in the tribe are far from enough, the warriors need to go out hunting as soon as possible, and the men and slaves who stay in the tribe have to go to the mountains to gather pine and cypress branches, and pick spicy vegetables and hemp grass. "

The spicy food and hemp grass in his mouth are newly discovered condiments, which taste similar to chili pepper. They can be used to prolong the storage time of bacon, and can also increase the taste. Most importantly, it can reduce the use of salt.

For the Huangping tribe, salt is an essential seasoning for survival, and salt accounts for a large part of the trade with foreign tribes in early summer every year.

The tribe's big field was divided into two. The stone pots in the east were still blanching wild vegetables, while the tall wooden houses were built in the west. The ground was paved with stones to prevent the soil from burning and cracking.

Women use wooden basins to smear large pieces of meat with the juice made of salt, ginger, spicy vegetables and hemp, and then tie extremely tough straw ropes to wait for smoking.

The warriors went hunting again, this time with extra strength in their hearts.

The envoy found a way to preserve a large amount of meat, and the priest said that there is no need to eat salty and stinky meat this year.The envoy also brought wound medicine to everyone. Although it was not made by the envoy himself, after Su Ya and the others made it, God blessed them with witchcraft, and the effect was also very good.

Moreover, the medicine that Zhongli brought was made by the envoy himself. It was snow white and fragrant. Chu Shan and the others couldn't help feeling sour. ....

Chu Shan and Ake looked at each other, and both saw the regret in each other's eyes.

The people who went up the mountain to break the branches came back. More than a dozen people carried a pile of them on their backs. The road in the woods was difficult, and everyone was sweating profusely from exhaustion.

The priest and the patriarch were in a good mood these two days. After asking Su Yao, they took rice crackers out of the tribal treasury. Under Su Yao's guidance, they rubbed off the skin of the rice crackers and cooked two pots of meat. Tommy porridge was given to the busy men and slaves of the tribe.

And under Su Yao's persuasion, all the food in the tribe is cooked together these days, and the slaves are the same, but in another pot.

The people who broke the branches returned to the big field again, and the meat was cured. Everyone stood in a neat line and listened carefully to Su Yao's explanation of the method of bacon.

After countless cold winters, these people know better than anyone how precious meat that is clean, intact and not rotten or smelly is.

Su Yao stood on the high platform, with the priest and patriarch behind him, and his clear voice reached everyone's ears under the influence of spiritual power.

"Lay wood chips in advance, the branches must not be burned, and there must be a lot of smoke to smoke the meat. You can add some fires at night to prevent the temperature in the smoker from dropping."

After speaking, Su Yao took the lead in putting the skewered meat on the wooden frame, and the temperature of the burning sawdust under the wooden frame ignited the broken pine and cypress branches that were still wet.

A large amount of thick smoke piled up in the smoking room. In some places, the pine branches continued to be covered with fresh branches to suppress the flames. After a while, the smoking room was full of thick smoke.

The smart slave has already learned the general approach, and took the initiative to take over the work from Su Yao and work hard.

After more than half a day, some pieces of meat have been stained with smoky yellow and color, and everything is developing in a good direction.

Su Yao also took advantage of the opportunity to mention to the priest and patriarch what he had been considering for a long time.

Another three days passed, some slaves were busy day and night, very diligent; some took the opportunity to hide, and even took advantage of the darkness of night to steal the meat being smoked.

Su Yao can understand the hard work of these slaves, but he can only try his best to help them.

On the morning of the fifth day, just after dinner, Su Yao gathered all the people together, and he wanted to announce something to everyone.

Su Yao looked at the slaves at the back. Because of eating on time for several days in a row, the spirits of these slaves improved a lot, and they all lowered their heads obediently when Su Yao looked over.

A bowl of ointment appeared in Su Yao's hand, and he looked at everyone with deep eyes: "Everyone has worked hard to store food for the past few days. After discussing with the priest and patriarch, I specially prepared a bamboo jar of wound medicine for everyone, and each family can get one jar. "

There was a lot of cheers in the crowd, remembering that the scarcity of wound medicine in the tribe is as rare as the tribe hitting a bull.Now every family can receive a box, it is really a good thing that the pie fell from the sky.

"One more thing," Su Yao turned his attention back to the slaves: "The tribe is going to pick three slaves, wash off their slave marks, and make them villagers of the tribe."

As soon as this remark came out, the place was quiet, no one dared to object to Su Yao, but disapproval could be seen on their faces.

Su Yao explained unhurriedly: "Not only today, but every once in a while a few people will be selected from the tribe to abolish their status as slaves and become tribe villagers."

"But there are also great restrictions on the choice: first, slaves work diligently and do not slacken; second, they have clean hands and feet and do not steal; third, they make significant contributions to the tribe."

"Also, the elimination of slaves requires the unanimous consent of me, the priest, and the patriarch; after becoming a villager of the tribe, I must hand in part of the food to the tribe on time every year, with a period of three years, and enjoy the same treatment as the villagers of the tribe after three years."

As Su Yao put forward the conditions, the expressions of the aborigines in the tribe gradually relaxed. They saw the benefits, so naturally they would not object.

Like these people, the faces of the slaves also showed obvious joy. If they could live freely, who would like to be locked up and beaten like prey, doing a lot of hard work on an empty stomach every day, and even being sacrificed as sacrifices?

Su Yao quickly called out the name of a slave who was captured from other tribes the year before last, and it was already the third year in the Huangping tribe.

Even he himself didn't think that he would one day become a villager of the tribe again.

As the imprint of slavery on them was washed away, the mentality of the slaves was also different, and they were more active in their work.

Su Yao's plan also went further, the first step to disintegrate the wild slavery√

Three days later, when the hunting team returned for the second time, good news came from the wild vegetables that had been planted in the tribe.

The first batch of wild vegetables watered by Su Yao's spiritual power all survived and were full of vitality, and some even grew a circle.The wild vines still have a lot of forks, and the young shoots are ready to eat.

Seeing that the vegetables growing in front of their house are getting better and better, everyone is more and more in awe of Su Yao, the envoy of God.They even think that Su Yao is the incarnation of the gods, that's why there are so many magical witchcraft.

With this in mind, everyone's attitude towards Su Yao became more and more respectful, and Su Yao was gradually accepted by the majority of the tribe.

And just when it was dawn, and everyone was waiting for the hunting team to return, the stone of the hunting team also brought back the second piece of good news:

The hunting team was already in the mountains not far away. Due to too many prey, Shi Shi came back to announce the good news first and then led people to meet him.

Another more important reason why the hunting team could not come back was that they not only hunted a large number of prey, but also encountered fleeing ronin on the way back. Leading more than a dozen people to hunt down those ronin.

Ronin is a unified name for people who have lost their tribe and home and wandered outside.
