Chapter 62 Hunting
They haven't been this relaxed in a long time.
The sub-orcs were responsible for cooking, but the orcs also took the initiative to help, helping to move firewood and help clear the fire.
Heishan only divides half of the food piled up like a hill, and this half is divided into three parts, each cave has a share, and the remaining half has to be saved and eaten slowly.
The clansmen in the cave all started to act. Maybe they were already numb, but seeing that everyone was busy, they didn't want to be idle.
This is the habit of the orcs.
It seems that when you get busy, you have hope for life.
All the stone pots in the three caves were pushed out, filled with snow water, boiled, washed and cleaned, and the food was waiting for the pot.
Everyone has never seen such a thing as rice, so they are not sure how to cook it, but experienced sub-orcs still have their own methods.
"Then add more clean snow water." A gray-haired old Asian orc man said, "Even if there is too much water, it will not be boiled, but if there is too little water, it will easily boil dry. And if you add a little more water, everyone will I can eat two more bites."
As expected of an old man who has lived for hundreds of years, he has indeed rich life experience.
The sub-orcs who were cooking started to move again.
Outside the cave, the sky was covered with snow. They didn't have the right tools, so they poured handfuls into the pot, carefully avoiding dirty things.
"What should we do with these dishes?" A suborc man asked.
"Let's cook together too." The old Asian orc man said, "If you don't eat vegetables for too long, you won't be able to pull out umm, and your stomach will be broken."
Xu Ruoqing and the empress also gave some vegetables, not to mention the primitive world, even their ancient world, vegetables are very rare in winter.
Although the orcs don't like to eat vegetables on weekdays, it's good to have something to eat now.
Even if the vegetable leaves were yellowed or had insect eyes, everyone didn't throw them away. They washed them with melted snow water and boiled them all in the pot.
As for meat, when the food is still sufficient, everyone basically eats barbecue, but now there is not enough food, so everyone directly chops it up and boils it in a stone pot, and then sprinkles it with a handful of salt like snowflakes.
In the cave, the aroma of food soon came, which was something they had never smelled before.
It smells so good, I really want to eat it.
This scent made everyone feel more hungry, and the grunting in their stomachs became more violent.
Bai Qiu only ate food in a dream before, but now he is still very hungry, swallowing saliva non-stop.
Only at this time, he looks like a sub-orc man who has just grown up.
The Asian father, Qing Ze, had a smile on his face. He always believed that his son must be an Asian orc man favored by the beast god.
Although his father Bai Ye was very silent, he was still paying attention to the situation of his sub-beast and his son.
After a while, he spoke quietly, his voice was hoarse after he hadn't spoken for a long time, "What is the beast god like? What is the temple like?"
Speaking of this, Bai Qiu became energetic.
He said: "It is exactly the same as the legendary Beast God. His fur is as bright as the color of the autumn sun. The beast shape looks a bit like a tiger orc cub, which turned into a human shape. His hair is also the color of the sun. , he is very good and powerful, and the clothes on my body were put on for me by Lord Beast God."
He recounted all his experiences and knowledge tonight, including Beast God's father and father, as well as the friends of Beast God's father.
Bai Qiu's voice had the unique melodiousness of a teenager, and the clansmen unconsciously lowered their voices, fascinated by it.
It turns out that the Beast God is exactly the same as in the legend. The world of the Beast God has a lot of delicious food and is also very warm. Everyone will not starve or suffer from cold.
The place where the Beast God lives is really beautiful.
And the Beast God's father and his friends, they never imagined that the Beast God also has a father.
When you think about it, it's normal, everyone was born from a sub-beast.
Maybe it's just that the title of Lord Beast God is different.
Also, since the Beast God is willing to give them food, does that mean they are no longer the ones punished by the Beast God?No longer an unknown person?Wouldn't it bring disaster to others?
Only Bai Ye and Heishan noticed the new way of hunting that Bai Qiu was talking about.
"Dig a hole, and the prey will jump in by itself?" Bai Ye couldn't believe it.
He used to be a warrior of the Tiger Tribe, he hunted every day, and even experienced beast tides, but he had never seen such a hunting method.
It sounds too simple, but it is hard to imagine.
Montenegro also had the same idea, "Why would the prey jump into the pit?"
"Father, sir leader." Bai Qiu explained: "It is to dig a deep pit, insert some sharpened thorns in the bottom of the pit, then make some camouflage on the surface of the pit, put some leaves, weeds and dead branches, and then put a piece of meat , the wild beasts can't tell the difference, if they step on it, they will fall directly into the pit."
It sounds reasonable.
Bai Ye looked at the leader, Heishan nodded.
"We'll try it when it's dawn."
It just so happened that there was no snow in the past two days. Although there was still snow, the hole would not be filled with snow after digging.
Bai Qiu pointed to the pack of meat with a strong smell when he was distributing the food just now, "These are the offal of animals. Lord Beast God's father said that the offal smells very strong and is very suitable as bait."
Their conversation was heard by the nearby clansmen.
Offal is also meat. Although it is not delicious, everyone does not dislike it.
Now that they want to use it as bait, everyone is still a bit reluctant. If all these internal organs are dragged away by wild beasts, wouldn't they have less meat to eat?
Hei waved his big hand, "Listen to the priest, this is what the father of the Lord Beast God told him. If the Beast God is so powerful, the father of the Lord Beast God must also be very powerful."
Bai Ye also said: "A little bit of internal organs, there is a chance to get back a whole prey, no matter what, we have to try."
No matter how bad the result is, it won't be worse than it is now.
Half of today's food is left to save, and with the meat they stored before, they can eat a water meal every two days, and it will take less than a month at most.
The winter is still long, and they cannot huddle in caves and wait to die.
"Also." Bai Qiu said, "Water animals are also edible, and the father of Lord Beast God also taught me how to hunt water animals."
wow.
This was another uproar.
When food is plentiful, no one will choose water beasts, because water beasts are smelly, and they will cause stomach upset after eating them.
No one eats it, which leads to a flood of water animals in the river, and those water animals are not afraid of people.
Sometimes they take a bath in the river in summer, if one is not careful, Tintin will be bitten by a water beast.
However, now that the river is frozen, how should we hunt?
"I have a solution." Bai Qiu's expression was full of confidence, "When it is dawn, I will take the sub-orcs to hunt water animals, and the orcs will dig traps with the leader."
The confidence in Bai Qiu's eyes was a brilliance that the orcs had never seen before. They inexplicably believed that they would definitely hunt for food.
As the smell of food in the cave became stronger and stronger, the fire of hope in everyone's hearts was also ignited.
The Asian orc man who cooked the rice tasted the snow-white rice in the pot. It was soft and glutinous, a taste he had never tasted before.
He greeted loudly, "It's ready to eat."
There is a bit too much water in the rice, it doesn't look like dry rice, but like that kind of porridge that is too dry.
The Asian orcs who were cooking first dug a big bowl full and gave it to their priest.
This is the rule in the tribe.
In the past, when the orcs went hunting, whoever worked the most would be the first to eat the meat.
These foods were all brought back by the priest, so it is reasonable for the priest to eat first.
Bai Qiu was moved, swallowed the beast, and passed the bowl to his Yafu, "Yafu, you eat first."
Qing Ze smiled and pushed the bowl back, "Master Priest, eat first, there is still in the pot."
Bai Ye and Heishan also meant the same thing, "There's still a lot in the pot, and we can eat it today, so let's eat it first, Lord Priest."
Looking at their expectant eyes, Bai Qiu took a bite and ate the spikes, his eyes lit up instantly, "It's delicious."
Obviously there is nothing in this rice, but it can taste a little sweet, so fragrant, soft and glutinous.
Everyone watched the priests eat deliciously, and the orcs and sub-orcs lined up very consciously, each holding a stone bowl, and lined up to eat.
Several pots of rice were cooked, but each person could only get half a bowl of rice, and no one thought it was too little.
This is the first time they have eaten such food.
After eating a bowl of rice, they even licked the bottom of the bowl clean, but they were still not full. It happened that the cooked meat was cooked at this time.
No matter what kind of meat it is, don't chop it into small pieces, even the bones are not removed, and a lot of vegetable leaves and roots are added.
Just by smelling it, you can tell that this broth must be extra delicious.
It's still Bai Qiu who eats it first, it's different from the meat he's eaten before, it doesn't have the fishy smell unique to wild beasts, "Is there any salt added to this meat? It feels a bit bland."
The sub-orc man who cooked the meat was a little embarrassed, "I have never seen such white salt, like snowflakes, I dare not put too much."
I used to eat meat while licking salt stones, but I never used anything like salt.
Bai Qiu waved his hand, "It's okay, let's add a little more to the pot now, everyone will have the strength to hunt tomorrow after eating salt."
The sub-orcs who cooked the meat looked at each other, nodded, and made up their minds. They grabbed a handful of salt and put it in the stone pot, stirred it, and called everyone to have dinner.
The meals for 3000 people, the stone pots in the three caves have not stopped, and it was not until the sky was slightly bright that everyone basically got their own meals.
That night, no one slept anymore. They finished their food and hugged their own bowls. They hadn't felt so relaxed for a long time.
Sitting together in twos and threes, they told the young little orcs and little Asian beasts stories about their youth.
The eyes are full of expectations for life.
They're wandering tribes, and they'll be fine someday.
Bai Qiu also listened very carefully. From time to time, someone asked him what the temple of the beast god was like, and he answered it seriously.
"You mean the father of the beast god is not a sub-beast?" Some orcs were curious, "Is he also an orc? A female orc?"
Female orcs can also have children, but female orcs can only have children of male orcs.
Bai Qiu shook his head, "No, none of them are beastmen, the father and father of the beast god are not beastmen, they are pure men."
The clansmen were all at a loss.
In their limited knowledge, there are two kinds of people in this world, one is orcs, and the other is sub-orcs.
Bai Qiu didn't understand either, and he couldn't explain clearly, anyway, that's what Boss Jiang told him.
Fortunately, everyone is not entangled in this problem.
Its daybreak.
Silent Heishan and Baiye stood up, walked to the entrance of the cave, and ordered more than 100 orcs to come out, "Bring your tools and dig traps with us."
The orcs in the two caves next door didn't know much about what happened in the middle cave last night. They only knew that the beast god brought them food through the hands of the priest.
Now I'm going to dig a trap. What is a trap?
"It's a new way of hunting." Hei Shan said loudly, "It's all taught by the Beast God to the Priest."
Wow, the orcs who were pointed out began to discuss in a hurry. The beast god not only gave them food, but also taught them how to hunt in winter?
In their inherent thinking, as long as they can still hunt, they will not starve to death.
"If you are willing to go, wear two more animal skins to keep warm." Bai Ye is not willing to talk nonsense, "If you don't want to go, you can give the opportunity to others."
No one gave up this opportunity. The orcs that were selected were relatively strong and healthy. Even if they were disabled, their force value was not bad.
It can be regarded as the general among short people.
Orcs don't have many tools, but they do have sharp claws.
Montenegro took the warriors to the woods where they hunted in autumn, and asked people to dig up the fluffy white snow first, and then began to dig holes.
"The pit must be deeper." Hei Shan was worried that the pit would be too shallow and the prey would jump out.
"Also, the branches must be sharpened."
The warriors didn't talk too much, and they did what the leader said.
Using wooden sticks, stones, and sharp claws is simply different, and the branches are about to grind sparks on the stones.
Here in the cave.
Bai Qiu walked out of the cave wearing modern clothes, and the beauty-loving Asian orcs surrounded them, chattering about the clothes they had never seen before.
So beautiful, really too beautiful.
The dexterous suborc man is already making gestures, and he wants to make a similar set with animal skins.
"Come some adult sub-orcs." Bai Qiu said, "Today we also go hunting."
"Can we hunt too? Can sub-orcs hunt?"
"But I'm afraid, won't the beast eat us?"
"We are so weak, we can't even turn into beasts, and we can't even run fast."
..
Bai Qiu didn't explain, and chose dozens of sub-orcs who were usually more courageous and skilled to come out, "You follow me, the other sub-orcs are going to get some firewood today and come back to dry."
Wet firewood cannot be burned, and there will be a lot of smoke. The orcs are also wise. They will surround the fire with wet wood and wait for the wet wood to dry before adding it.
Qing Ze waved his hand, "Don't worry about hunting water animals, I'll let everyone gather firewood together."
All tribes will choose to settle near a water source, and the place they are now abandoned by the previous tribe is also the same.
Wrapped in thick animal skins, the sub-orcs walked for more than ten minutes to the river.
The originally clear river water has been frozen into a thick layer of ice, and there is no danger for them to stand on it.
It was a little slippery, and everyone had to support each other to move forward.
Only Bai Qiu, who was wearing short boots, was walking on flat ground, and everyone was terribly envious again.
"Where are we going to hunt water beasts?" a sub-orc man asked.
"Go to the middle of the river." Bai Qiu's goal was very firm, "The ice layer in the middle of the river will be thinner, so you should also separate a little bit, pay attention to the movement under your feet, and if you hear the sound of the ice cracking, move away immediately."
The sub-orcs all know that the water in winter is very cold, and if they fall into it, they will never get up again. No one is sloppy, and they all watch their feet carefully.
The sub-orcs who were originally standing in a row were separated by two, far away.
"That's right here." Bai Qiu tried to step on the ice below, "This part is relatively thin, so let's smash it from here, everyone spread out."
The only tools they brought were stone axes and stone knives.
Bai Qiu divided the dozens of orcs into three teams, and drew the positions to be smashed, "Let's start smashing, everyone must be careful."
The sound of hitting the ice layer came and went, and the ping-pong-pong sound was very lively.
The sub-orcs wrapped in animal skins gradually became hotter, with sweat dripping from their foreheads, but their heads were full of salt.
It seemed as if they would be able to eat as long as they chipped away at the ice.
Bai Qiu wasn't idle either, he was a priest and didn't need to take part in such strenuous work, but he also always paid attention to the situation under everyone's feet and the surrounding environment.
Brother Xiaobai said last night that digging ice is a very dangerous thing, so we must pay attention to safety.
A group of people ping-pong-pong, shattered ice splashed, but it didn't affect everyone's enthusiasm at all.
With a bang, a whole piece of crushed ice fell from the ice hole in the middle.
"My lord priest, my lord priest." The Asian orc man shouted loudly, "We have already dug here."
Bai Qiu walked over quickly, the ice hole he dug was only as big as a human head, this is not enough, it is not enough.
"Around the edge of the ice hole, keep hitting, don't use too much force this time, safety first."
As soon as the words fell, a small silver fish jumped out of the water, and one of the sub-orcs caught the fish with quick eyesight and quick hands.
Everyone present was stunned by the sight in front of them.
The fish jumped out of the water by itself?
Bai Qiu was also a little shocked, brother Xiaobai was indeed right.
"Go ahead, let's make the hole bigger." Bai Qiu took out a small grass rope, tied a small piece of minced meat on the rope, and let it go down along the hole.
He didn't know if it would work, but they had managed to catch a fish.
As long as we catch enough fish today, everyone will not be hungry at night.
As the first hole was cut, the other two holes were cut one after another.
Although the fish did not jump out of the first hole, it was already half the battle.
As usual, Bai Qiu tied the minced meat with a small rope and put it into the ice cave.
The hole got bigger and bigger, and the underwater situation became clearer and clearer.
"My lord priest, look, the bottom of the water is full of thorn beasts, and many thorn beasts have swum over." The sub-orc man exclaimed again and again.
None of them had ever seen such a sight, as if all the thorns in the river were crowding at the mouth of the hole.
If Jiang Qiubai and the others were here, they would definitely say, don't just sit there, just use a ladle to scoop it up.
They don't have a tool like a ladle, so they can only do it in a hurry.
Grabbing by hand is really too slow.
Bai Qiu thought for a while, "Leave a few people to catch fish by the entrance of the cave, count as much as you can catch, and find the rest to find dead trees and vines, we will make a frame."
What is a box?Everyone doesn't understand.
But Bai Qiu knew that he saw a frame in the bathroom last night. The beast god said it was a basket for dirty clothes, and it was woven out of a kind of plant.
It doesn't look very difficult, but the rattan is intertwined with each other.
The sub-beast people didn't know why, but they still listened to the priest's words. The priest was a person who had been ordered by the beast god. What the priest said must be true.
There are many withered tree vines nearby. These vines are only as thick as a human little finger, but they are very flexible.
The sub-orcs took their stone axes and chiseled around the frame, and soon dragged a lot of vines back.
Bai Qiu didn't weave rattan baskets before, so he could only tell the Asian orcs his thoughts, and let everyone brainstorm and discuss together.
Among them, a sub-orc man with little sense of existence thought about it, and said submissively, "I have seen spider beasts weave webs, can we weave rattan baskets in that way?"
Swish, the Asian orcs suddenly became clear-headed.
Wisdom is unlimited, and so is creativity.
It was the first time for everyone to weave rattan baskets, and they were unskilled. It took a long time to weave a strange-shaped rattan basket.
This rattan basket is quite big, and it will be no problem to hold two or three sub-orcs.
"This? Can this work?" Some sub-orcs were very skeptical.
Bai Qiu was also very skeptical, "Let's try it first, if it doesn't work, we'll change it."
"But what is the use of this?"
Bai Qiu didn't know either, so he could only pull the rattan basket to the entrance of the hole first, "Let's just put it down like this, then put the minced meat into the basket, and try first."
Facts have proved that true knowledge comes from practice.
This frame, which is not even a rattan basket, was put into the water. Not long after Bai Qiu threw the minced meat in, all the fish around surrounded him and rushed into the frame.
It can be seen that the fish in winter are also hungry.
"It's now." Bai Qiu kept an eye on the situation in the rattan basket, "Pull, pull up the rattan basket."
The sub-orcs were all excited, and they started to pull the exposed edge out of the net.
The weaving of the rattan baskets was not successful, and many fish got out through the gaps, which made everyone feel pain.
It's all food.
The sub-beast people struggled to pull up all the rattan baskets, and the thorn beasts from Lishui jumped violently, and some of them jumped directly into their faces, slapped them, slapped them, and jumped away.
But everyone still showed a good harvest smile, there are really a lot of thorns.
Bai Qiuchu did a quick count, excluding those palm-sized small fish, there were about fifty or sixty big fish in this basket, and each big fish was as long as an arm.
"Let's drag the rattan baskets to the shore and pour out the fish." Bai Qiu commanded everyone, "Empty the baskets, and leave ten people to continue fishing in the rattan baskets, and the remaining half will tear the dead rattans and continue weaving the rattan baskets. In the end, I will deal with the fish with me."
Bai Qiu arranged everything in an orderly manner, and everyone listened to the words of the priest.
Fishing, weaving rattan baskets, they also have the experience just now.
But with the fish, what to do with it?
"Lord Beast God's father told me that the reason why water beasts smell bad is because we haven't handled them well." Bai Qiu picked up a fish, "First we have to scrape off the fish scales."
The sub-orcs follow suit.
After Bai Qiu hangs a fish, he uses a stone knife to gently open the belly of the fish, "Throw away all the things inside, especially the green one inside, because that thing is very bitter, so be careful not to tear it apart."
Don't throw away the excavated viscera. It can be used as bait for traps. It has a strong smell and is easy to attract prey.
After finishing one, Bai Qiu put it directly on the snow, this day is just enough to freeze the fish.
The sub-orcs all have a pair of industrious hands. The priest only demonstrated it once, and they did it in style.
Soon, the sub-orcs fishing came over with a large basket of fish, and the sub-orcs weaving rattan baskets over there also successfully weaved rattan baskets.
Three ice holes were dug.
The sub-orcs cooperate with each other, those who catch fish catch fish, and those who kill fish kill fish.
Counting nine cold days, a bunch of Asian orcs are busy with work.
When the sky gradually darkened, they looked back and realized that they had caught so many fish today.
The fish-killing sub-orcs' fingers were red from the cold, but they still enjoyed it.
This is much more fulfilling than going out to collect before.
"That's all." Bai Qiu also came back to his senses, "Let's carry a few baskets back first, and let the orcs come and carry the rest."
In the cave, the orcs who went out to dig traps today came back with two wild beasts on their shoulders.
Everyone is beaming.
This is the first time they have hunted their prey without fighting.
They worked hard all day from morning to night today, digging a total of ten deep pits, and distributed them in places in the forest where wild animals are likely to appear.
After they dug the hole, when they looked back at the first trap, there was a strong deer lying in it struggling. Climb down the deep pit and lift up the deer beast.
Not a single orc was injured.
The other trap with prey was in a similar situation.
Ten traps, only two prey, but for them, they are already very satisfied.
This meant that they would no longer have to fight their prey every day in the future.
The orcs and sub-orcs staying in the cave also showed smiles on their faces. This was the first time the orcs had hunted such a large prey since the beginning of winter this year, and none of the orcs showed any signs of injury.
This winter, it seems that there is hope.
And with today's prey, their hearts are more stable, and they can't always rely on the blessing of the beast god.
Montenegro greeted the sub-orcs, "Eat the two prey today, don't roast them, cook them like last night."
The Asian orcs started working happily.
"Where is the priest?" Heishan walked around but did not see the priest.
Qing Ze said: "Bai Qiu took the sub-orcs to go fishing, and they haven't come back yet, counting the time, they should be back soon."
If you don't come back, it will be dark.
The education passed down from mouth to mouth by the orcs is that they should not leave the cave at night and must come back before dark.
Late night is dangerous.
Hei Shan looked at the sky, and greeted Bai Ye and another orc, "Let's go and have a look."
Bai Ye was also a little worried. Bai Qiu was his only child, and being a priest was a great honor for the family of three.
Before he went out this morning, he noticed that his son's most precious piece of spotted animal skin was missing. The son said it was dedicated to the friend of the Beast God.
He believed it.
The son must have had a different fortune.
Perhaps, such good fortune can save the current wandering tribes.
Before Heishan and the others walked halfway, they watched from a distance a few figures carrying something back.
They looked at each other, quickly turned into beasts, and ran away.
"My lord, father." Bai Qiu panted, "We caught a lot of thorn beasts today."
Montenegro and the others turned back into human form, "Thank you for your hard work."
They also didn't expect that in addition to collecting wild vegetables and fruits, sub-beasts could also hunt.
Although it is a water beast that everyone doesn't like to eat, it is food anyway.
"Leave it to us." The three orcs took the rattan basket, "Thank you for your hard work today, this rattan container is not bad."
Bai Ye gently rubbed his son's head with his helpless arm, "Thank you for your hard work."
Bai Qiu, "It's not hard, then you can carry these back first, we have to go back to the river, there are still a lot of fish by the river."
Heishan was a little shocked now. He thought that the hundreds of big fish were all the sub-orcs got today, but he didn't expect there to be more?
Bai Ye took a closer look, and found that the thorn beasts in the rattan basket had actually been frozen, but it was not difficult to find that these thorn beasts had been processed, the scales on the surface were gone, and the belly of the fish had also been cut. Opened up.
They eat less watery beasts, but never do fish like this.
Bai Qiu smiled, "This is what the Beast God's father taught me. He said that after handling the fish in this way, it will not smell so bad."
The three orcs nodded thoughtfully, "Then you all go back with us, and we will ask the orcs to carry the water animals later."
Bai Qiu shook his head, "We still have to go back to kill the fish. There are still many fish that haven't been killed. I even picked out a basket of big fish. I want to dedicate it to the beast god. It must be cleaned up."
That's the truth, and it should be.
The Beast God taught them how to hunt in winter, and they should repay the Beast God.
It's just that the beast god can take a fancy to these not so delicious water beasts?
The horned orc who had been fishing silently changed suddenly, "Tie the rattan basket to me, I will carry it back, and then call some orcs over."
If Jiang Qiubai were here, he would know that this was a huge black bull.
The horned orcs are rare orcs with sound limbs in the wandering tribes, and they are descendants of the former wandering tribes.
Although he doesn't have a strong hunting ability, he works hard and everyone likes him very much.
"Uncle, call more people." Bai Qiu said, "We really caught a lot of fish today, and we will try to move them all back, so that everyone can have a full meal."
The bull orc mooed, turned around and walked back.
Heishan and Baiye followed Baiqiu and the others back to the river, and they were all frightened dumbfounded.
This, this, this, how come there are so many thorn beasts?Pile up like a mountain of silver.
The Asian orcs continued to kill fish, weave rattan baskets, and work together in division of labor.
Although everyone's hands are red from the cold, as long as they think that they will be full tonight, everyone is full of energy.
Bai Qiu also brought the returning suborcs to work with the leader.
Soon, the bull orcs also came with a group of people, both orcs and sub-orcs.
"You all go to rest." Qing Ze felt sorry for everyone, "It's been a busy day, leave the rest to us."
On this winter evening, the sunset glow burned the sky red, and the paleness between the sky and the earth became a little more vibrant.
In the collective cave, basket after basket of fish was sent back, and the suborc man who was usually in charge of cooking the meat couldn't close his mouth with laughter.
Haven't seen so much food in a long time.
And the sub-orcs were joking, "Tomorrow I have to dig a few more stone pots, otherwise there won't be enough to cook."
The clansmen laughed heartily.
The bottom of my heart is extremely happy.
When all the clansmen returned to the cave, it was completely dark.
In the cave, the fish soup was boiled to a pure white, except for a slight fishy smell, there was no fishy and smelly feeling like before.
Bai Qiu was given a large bowl full of fish meat, two small sticks danced so fast that he even chewed and swallowed the fishbone.
Delicious.
Although this fish is not as delicious as the one eaten in the temple last night, it is still very delicious food for him.
The other clansmen also felt the same way, it turns out that water beasts can be so delicious.
When they thought that the river was full of all kinds of water animals, everyone became even more excited.
Especially the Asian orcs who participated in fishing today, they gathered together, exchanged experiences with each other, and made an appointment to continue fishing tomorrow.
"The horn of this deer beast, let us also dedicate it to the beast god." The leader Heishan said, "This represents the courage of our wandering tribe warriors."
The antlers are complete and beautiful, Bai Qiu did not refuse.
By the time everyone had almost eaten, it was already very late.
"I'm going to see the Beast God soon." Bai Qiu said, "Don't disturb my sleep."
The leader, Heishan, was waiting in full force, "Master Priest, don't worry, your father and I will guard you and will never let anyone disturb you."
Bai Qiu clenched the Qiankun bag in his hand, antlers and a basket of cleanly cleaned big fish were placed beside him.
Everything was ready, Bai Qiu thought about everything in the temple, and slowly closed his eyes, his consciousness gradually became chaotic.
in the tavern.
Jiang Qiubai held the ruler with hatred, and tapped the table impatiently.
He is tutoring Jiang Miao's homework.
The schedule he set for Jiang Miao was to study the knowledge in modern textbooks with him in the morning, go to Moying to learn spells in the afternoon, and come back to do homework in the evening.
Jiang Miao kneaded her head into a chicken coop, holding the pen holder in one hand, and wrote abcd stroke by stroke.
"Dad, don't you even need to sleep?" Jiang Miao felt like she was going crazy.
Jiang Qiubai actually didn't know that he was the reason, anyway, his drowsiness was getting less and less, and he couldn't sleep for three or four hours a day.
He patted the table with a ruler, "If you study hard, Dad can go to bed early."
Jiang Miao sighed and continued to do his homework.
He didn’t go to bed until 4 o’clock this morning. His father told him to get up at 8:9, wash up and eat breakfast. He started studying at 11 o’clock, Chinese and mathematics. There were only two subjects until [-] o’clock, and he had a rest for lunch.
After lunch, he originally wanted to sleep for a while, but his father came again, and without saying a word, he carried him to the fairy palace, and he was busy all afternoon learning spells.
If he didn't study well, he would have to be scolded by his father.
He just came back at night, after dinner, he still has to do the homework assigned by his father.
Hey.. Meow life is too difficult.
Can't he be a simple cat that sleeps after eating?
Jiang Qiubai was helpless, and he didn't teach much today, but Jiang Miao deserted after sitting for less than 5 minutes, which slowed down the teaching progress.
He finally understood how those parents who tutored their children with their homework ended up with a heart attack.
Yu Keke was also holding a pen and a notebook, and he was accompanying him.
But he is an adult, and he usually improves himself through self-study. He studied with Jiang Miao just to accompany Jiang Miao.
Jiang Miao wrote and wrote, the crooked pinyin is too difficult, Jiang Qiubai didn't pay attention, and he started to lose his mind again.
I don't know when his younger brother will come.
Just thinking about it, the teleportation array lit up.
"Xiao Baiqiu." With sharp eyes, Jiang Miao recognized the figure in the teleportation array, immediately put down the homework in her hand, and ran over, "Why did you come here? I've been waiting for you for a long time."
Faced with the beast god's enthusiasm, Bai Qiu was instinctively cautious, "There are too many fish caught today, and it took a lot of time just to kill them."
Jiang Qiubai came over and carried Jiang Miao away, "You can only play with Bai Qiu after you finish your homework."
That homework is nothing more than ten minutes. It has been more than half an hour, and I haven't finished half of it yet.
Jiang Qiubai also has a headache, his son is quite smart, isn't he?Why is it so slow to learn something?
"Bai Qiu sit down first, talk to the empress and the others, Jiang Miao still has to do homework." Jiang Qiubai invited him to sit with the empress and the others, and they could also chat.
Empress Empress and Xu Ruoqing also kindly invited him to come and sit down, and even poured honey water for him.
Bai Qiu looked at his beast god, then at Boss Jiang, and carefully handed over the Qiankun bag
The sub-orcs were responsible for cooking, but the orcs also took the initiative to help, helping to move firewood and help clear the fire.
Heishan only divides half of the food piled up like a hill, and this half is divided into three parts, each cave has a share, and the remaining half has to be saved and eaten slowly.
The clansmen in the cave all started to act. Maybe they were already numb, but seeing that everyone was busy, they didn't want to be idle.
This is the habit of the orcs.
It seems that when you get busy, you have hope for life.
All the stone pots in the three caves were pushed out, filled with snow water, boiled, washed and cleaned, and the food was waiting for the pot.
Everyone has never seen such a thing as rice, so they are not sure how to cook it, but experienced sub-orcs still have their own methods.
"Then add more clean snow water." A gray-haired old Asian orc man said, "Even if there is too much water, it will not be boiled, but if there is too little water, it will easily boil dry. And if you add a little more water, everyone will I can eat two more bites."
As expected of an old man who has lived for hundreds of years, he has indeed rich life experience.
The sub-orcs who were cooking started to move again.
Outside the cave, the sky was covered with snow. They didn't have the right tools, so they poured handfuls into the pot, carefully avoiding dirty things.
"What should we do with these dishes?" A suborc man asked.
"Let's cook together too." The old Asian orc man said, "If you don't eat vegetables for too long, you won't be able to pull out umm, and your stomach will be broken."
Xu Ruoqing and the empress also gave some vegetables, not to mention the primitive world, even their ancient world, vegetables are very rare in winter.
Although the orcs don't like to eat vegetables on weekdays, it's good to have something to eat now.
Even if the vegetable leaves were yellowed or had insect eyes, everyone didn't throw them away. They washed them with melted snow water and boiled them all in the pot.
As for meat, when the food is still sufficient, everyone basically eats barbecue, but now there is not enough food, so everyone directly chops it up and boils it in a stone pot, and then sprinkles it with a handful of salt like snowflakes.
In the cave, the aroma of food soon came, which was something they had never smelled before.
It smells so good, I really want to eat it.
This scent made everyone feel more hungry, and the grunting in their stomachs became more violent.
Bai Qiu only ate food in a dream before, but now he is still very hungry, swallowing saliva non-stop.
Only at this time, he looks like a sub-orc man who has just grown up.
The Asian father, Qing Ze, had a smile on his face. He always believed that his son must be an Asian orc man favored by the beast god.
Although his father Bai Ye was very silent, he was still paying attention to the situation of his sub-beast and his son.
After a while, he spoke quietly, his voice was hoarse after he hadn't spoken for a long time, "What is the beast god like? What is the temple like?"
Speaking of this, Bai Qiu became energetic.
He said: "It is exactly the same as the legendary Beast God. His fur is as bright as the color of the autumn sun. The beast shape looks a bit like a tiger orc cub, which turned into a human shape. His hair is also the color of the sun. , he is very good and powerful, and the clothes on my body were put on for me by Lord Beast God."
He recounted all his experiences and knowledge tonight, including Beast God's father and father, as well as the friends of Beast God's father.
Bai Qiu's voice had the unique melodiousness of a teenager, and the clansmen unconsciously lowered their voices, fascinated by it.
It turns out that the Beast God is exactly the same as in the legend. The world of the Beast God has a lot of delicious food and is also very warm. Everyone will not starve or suffer from cold.
The place where the Beast God lives is really beautiful.
And the Beast God's father and his friends, they never imagined that the Beast God also has a father.
When you think about it, it's normal, everyone was born from a sub-beast.
Maybe it's just that the title of Lord Beast God is different.
Also, since the Beast God is willing to give them food, does that mean they are no longer the ones punished by the Beast God?No longer an unknown person?Wouldn't it bring disaster to others?
Only Bai Ye and Heishan noticed the new way of hunting that Bai Qiu was talking about.
"Dig a hole, and the prey will jump in by itself?" Bai Ye couldn't believe it.
He used to be a warrior of the Tiger Tribe, he hunted every day, and even experienced beast tides, but he had never seen such a hunting method.
It sounds too simple, but it is hard to imagine.
Montenegro also had the same idea, "Why would the prey jump into the pit?"
"Father, sir leader." Bai Qiu explained: "It is to dig a deep pit, insert some sharpened thorns in the bottom of the pit, then make some camouflage on the surface of the pit, put some leaves, weeds and dead branches, and then put a piece of meat , the wild beasts can't tell the difference, if they step on it, they will fall directly into the pit."
It sounds reasonable.
Bai Ye looked at the leader, Heishan nodded.
"We'll try it when it's dawn."
It just so happened that there was no snow in the past two days. Although there was still snow, the hole would not be filled with snow after digging.
Bai Qiu pointed to the pack of meat with a strong smell when he was distributing the food just now, "These are the offal of animals. Lord Beast God's father said that the offal smells very strong and is very suitable as bait."
Their conversation was heard by the nearby clansmen.
Offal is also meat. Although it is not delicious, everyone does not dislike it.
Now that they want to use it as bait, everyone is still a bit reluctant. If all these internal organs are dragged away by wild beasts, wouldn't they have less meat to eat?
Hei waved his big hand, "Listen to the priest, this is what the father of the Lord Beast God told him. If the Beast God is so powerful, the father of the Lord Beast God must also be very powerful."
Bai Ye also said: "A little bit of internal organs, there is a chance to get back a whole prey, no matter what, we have to try."
No matter how bad the result is, it won't be worse than it is now.
Half of today's food is left to save, and with the meat they stored before, they can eat a water meal every two days, and it will take less than a month at most.
The winter is still long, and they cannot huddle in caves and wait to die.
"Also." Bai Qiu said, "Water animals are also edible, and the father of Lord Beast God also taught me how to hunt water animals."
wow.
This was another uproar.
When food is plentiful, no one will choose water beasts, because water beasts are smelly, and they will cause stomach upset after eating them.
No one eats it, which leads to a flood of water animals in the river, and those water animals are not afraid of people.
Sometimes they take a bath in the river in summer, if one is not careful, Tintin will be bitten by a water beast.
However, now that the river is frozen, how should we hunt?
"I have a solution." Bai Qiu's expression was full of confidence, "When it is dawn, I will take the sub-orcs to hunt water animals, and the orcs will dig traps with the leader."
The confidence in Bai Qiu's eyes was a brilliance that the orcs had never seen before. They inexplicably believed that they would definitely hunt for food.
As the smell of food in the cave became stronger and stronger, the fire of hope in everyone's hearts was also ignited.
The Asian orc man who cooked the rice tasted the snow-white rice in the pot. It was soft and glutinous, a taste he had never tasted before.
He greeted loudly, "It's ready to eat."
There is a bit too much water in the rice, it doesn't look like dry rice, but like that kind of porridge that is too dry.
The Asian orcs who were cooking first dug a big bowl full and gave it to their priest.
This is the rule in the tribe.
In the past, when the orcs went hunting, whoever worked the most would be the first to eat the meat.
These foods were all brought back by the priest, so it is reasonable for the priest to eat first.
Bai Qiu was moved, swallowed the beast, and passed the bowl to his Yafu, "Yafu, you eat first."
Qing Ze smiled and pushed the bowl back, "Master Priest, eat first, there is still in the pot."
Bai Ye and Heishan also meant the same thing, "There's still a lot in the pot, and we can eat it today, so let's eat it first, Lord Priest."
Looking at their expectant eyes, Bai Qiu took a bite and ate the spikes, his eyes lit up instantly, "It's delicious."
Obviously there is nothing in this rice, but it can taste a little sweet, so fragrant, soft and glutinous.
Everyone watched the priests eat deliciously, and the orcs and sub-orcs lined up very consciously, each holding a stone bowl, and lined up to eat.
Several pots of rice were cooked, but each person could only get half a bowl of rice, and no one thought it was too little.
This is the first time they have eaten such food.
After eating a bowl of rice, they even licked the bottom of the bowl clean, but they were still not full. It happened that the cooked meat was cooked at this time.
No matter what kind of meat it is, don't chop it into small pieces, even the bones are not removed, and a lot of vegetable leaves and roots are added.
Just by smelling it, you can tell that this broth must be extra delicious.
It's still Bai Qiu who eats it first, it's different from the meat he's eaten before, it doesn't have the fishy smell unique to wild beasts, "Is there any salt added to this meat? It feels a bit bland."
The sub-orc man who cooked the meat was a little embarrassed, "I have never seen such white salt, like snowflakes, I dare not put too much."
I used to eat meat while licking salt stones, but I never used anything like salt.
Bai Qiu waved his hand, "It's okay, let's add a little more to the pot now, everyone will have the strength to hunt tomorrow after eating salt."
The sub-orcs who cooked the meat looked at each other, nodded, and made up their minds. They grabbed a handful of salt and put it in the stone pot, stirred it, and called everyone to have dinner.
The meals for 3000 people, the stone pots in the three caves have not stopped, and it was not until the sky was slightly bright that everyone basically got their own meals.
That night, no one slept anymore. They finished their food and hugged their own bowls. They hadn't felt so relaxed for a long time.
Sitting together in twos and threes, they told the young little orcs and little Asian beasts stories about their youth.
The eyes are full of expectations for life.
They're wandering tribes, and they'll be fine someday.
Bai Qiu also listened very carefully. From time to time, someone asked him what the temple of the beast god was like, and he answered it seriously.
"You mean the father of the beast god is not a sub-beast?" Some orcs were curious, "Is he also an orc? A female orc?"
Female orcs can also have children, but female orcs can only have children of male orcs.
Bai Qiu shook his head, "No, none of them are beastmen, the father and father of the beast god are not beastmen, they are pure men."
The clansmen were all at a loss.
In their limited knowledge, there are two kinds of people in this world, one is orcs, and the other is sub-orcs.
Bai Qiu didn't understand either, and he couldn't explain clearly, anyway, that's what Boss Jiang told him.
Fortunately, everyone is not entangled in this problem.
Its daybreak.
Silent Heishan and Baiye stood up, walked to the entrance of the cave, and ordered more than 100 orcs to come out, "Bring your tools and dig traps with us."
The orcs in the two caves next door didn't know much about what happened in the middle cave last night. They only knew that the beast god brought them food through the hands of the priest.
Now I'm going to dig a trap. What is a trap?
"It's a new way of hunting." Hei Shan said loudly, "It's all taught by the Beast God to the Priest."
Wow, the orcs who were pointed out began to discuss in a hurry. The beast god not only gave them food, but also taught them how to hunt in winter?
In their inherent thinking, as long as they can still hunt, they will not starve to death.
"If you are willing to go, wear two more animal skins to keep warm." Bai Ye is not willing to talk nonsense, "If you don't want to go, you can give the opportunity to others."
No one gave up this opportunity. The orcs that were selected were relatively strong and healthy. Even if they were disabled, their force value was not bad.
It can be regarded as the general among short people.
Orcs don't have many tools, but they do have sharp claws.
Montenegro took the warriors to the woods where they hunted in autumn, and asked people to dig up the fluffy white snow first, and then began to dig holes.
"The pit must be deeper." Hei Shan was worried that the pit would be too shallow and the prey would jump out.
"Also, the branches must be sharpened."
The warriors didn't talk too much, and they did what the leader said.
Using wooden sticks, stones, and sharp claws is simply different, and the branches are about to grind sparks on the stones.
Here in the cave.
Bai Qiu walked out of the cave wearing modern clothes, and the beauty-loving Asian orcs surrounded them, chattering about the clothes they had never seen before.
So beautiful, really too beautiful.
The dexterous suborc man is already making gestures, and he wants to make a similar set with animal skins.
"Come some adult sub-orcs." Bai Qiu said, "Today we also go hunting."
"Can we hunt too? Can sub-orcs hunt?"
"But I'm afraid, won't the beast eat us?"
"We are so weak, we can't even turn into beasts, and we can't even run fast."
..
Bai Qiu didn't explain, and chose dozens of sub-orcs who were usually more courageous and skilled to come out, "You follow me, the other sub-orcs are going to get some firewood today and come back to dry."
Wet firewood cannot be burned, and there will be a lot of smoke. The orcs are also wise. They will surround the fire with wet wood and wait for the wet wood to dry before adding it.
Qing Ze waved his hand, "Don't worry about hunting water animals, I'll let everyone gather firewood together."
All tribes will choose to settle near a water source, and the place they are now abandoned by the previous tribe is also the same.
Wrapped in thick animal skins, the sub-orcs walked for more than ten minutes to the river.
The originally clear river water has been frozen into a thick layer of ice, and there is no danger for them to stand on it.
It was a little slippery, and everyone had to support each other to move forward.
Only Bai Qiu, who was wearing short boots, was walking on flat ground, and everyone was terribly envious again.
"Where are we going to hunt water beasts?" a sub-orc man asked.
"Go to the middle of the river." Bai Qiu's goal was very firm, "The ice layer in the middle of the river will be thinner, so you should also separate a little bit, pay attention to the movement under your feet, and if you hear the sound of the ice cracking, move away immediately."
The sub-orcs all know that the water in winter is very cold, and if they fall into it, they will never get up again. No one is sloppy, and they all watch their feet carefully.
The sub-orcs who were originally standing in a row were separated by two, far away.
"That's right here." Bai Qiu tried to step on the ice below, "This part is relatively thin, so let's smash it from here, everyone spread out."
The only tools they brought were stone axes and stone knives.
Bai Qiu divided the dozens of orcs into three teams, and drew the positions to be smashed, "Let's start smashing, everyone must be careful."
The sound of hitting the ice layer came and went, and the ping-pong-pong sound was very lively.
The sub-orcs wrapped in animal skins gradually became hotter, with sweat dripping from their foreheads, but their heads were full of salt.
It seemed as if they would be able to eat as long as they chipped away at the ice.
Bai Qiu wasn't idle either, he was a priest and didn't need to take part in such strenuous work, but he also always paid attention to the situation under everyone's feet and the surrounding environment.
Brother Xiaobai said last night that digging ice is a very dangerous thing, so we must pay attention to safety.
A group of people ping-pong-pong, shattered ice splashed, but it didn't affect everyone's enthusiasm at all.
With a bang, a whole piece of crushed ice fell from the ice hole in the middle.
"My lord priest, my lord priest." The Asian orc man shouted loudly, "We have already dug here."
Bai Qiu walked over quickly, the ice hole he dug was only as big as a human head, this is not enough, it is not enough.
"Around the edge of the ice hole, keep hitting, don't use too much force this time, safety first."
As soon as the words fell, a small silver fish jumped out of the water, and one of the sub-orcs caught the fish with quick eyesight and quick hands.
Everyone present was stunned by the sight in front of them.
The fish jumped out of the water by itself?
Bai Qiu was also a little shocked, brother Xiaobai was indeed right.
"Go ahead, let's make the hole bigger." Bai Qiu took out a small grass rope, tied a small piece of minced meat on the rope, and let it go down along the hole.
He didn't know if it would work, but they had managed to catch a fish.
As long as we catch enough fish today, everyone will not be hungry at night.
As the first hole was cut, the other two holes were cut one after another.
Although the fish did not jump out of the first hole, it was already half the battle.
As usual, Bai Qiu tied the minced meat with a small rope and put it into the ice cave.
The hole got bigger and bigger, and the underwater situation became clearer and clearer.
"My lord priest, look, the bottom of the water is full of thorn beasts, and many thorn beasts have swum over." The sub-orc man exclaimed again and again.
None of them had ever seen such a sight, as if all the thorns in the river were crowding at the mouth of the hole.
If Jiang Qiubai and the others were here, they would definitely say, don't just sit there, just use a ladle to scoop it up.
They don't have a tool like a ladle, so they can only do it in a hurry.
Grabbing by hand is really too slow.
Bai Qiu thought for a while, "Leave a few people to catch fish by the entrance of the cave, count as much as you can catch, and find the rest to find dead trees and vines, we will make a frame."
What is a box?Everyone doesn't understand.
But Bai Qiu knew that he saw a frame in the bathroom last night. The beast god said it was a basket for dirty clothes, and it was woven out of a kind of plant.
It doesn't look very difficult, but the rattan is intertwined with each other.
The sub-beast people didn't know why, but they still listened to the priest's words. The priest was a person who had been ordered by the beast god. What the priest said must be true.
There are many withered tree vines nearby. These vines are only as thick as a human little finger, but they are very flexible.
The sub-orcs took their stone axes and chiseled around the frame, and soon dragged a lot of vines back.
Bai Qiu didn't weave rattan baskets before, so he could only tell the Asian orcs his thoughts, and let everyone brainstorm and discuss together.
Among them, a sub-orc man with little sense of existence thought about it, and said submissively, "I have seen spider beasts weave webs, can we weave rattan baskets in that way?"
Swish, the Asian orcs suddenly became clear-headed.
Wisdom is unlimited, and so is creativity.
It was the first time for everyone to weave rattan baskets, and they were unskilled. It took a long time to weave a strange-shaped rattan basket.
This rattan basket is quite big, and it will be no problem to hold two or three sub-orcs.
"This? Can this work?" Some sub-orcs were very skeptical.
Bai Qiu was also very skeptical, "Let's try it first, if it doesn't work, we'll change it."
"But what is the use of this?"
Bai Qiu didn't know either, so he could only pull the rattan basket to the entrance of the hole first, "Let's just put it down like this, then put the minced meat into the basket, and try first."
Facts have proved that true knowledge comes from practice.
This frame, which is not even a rattan basket, was put into the water. Not long after Bai Qiu threw the minced meat in, all the fish around surrounded him and rushed into the frame.
It can be seen that the fish in winter are also hungry.
"It's now." Bai Qiu kept an eye on the situation in the rattan basket, "Pull, pull up the rattan basket."
The sub-orcs were all excited, and they started to pull the exposed edge out of the net.
The weaving of the rattan baskets was not successful, and many fish got out through the gaps, which made everyone feel pain.
It's all food.
The sub-beast people struggled to pull up all the rattan baskets, and the thorn beasts from Lishui jumped violently, and some of them jumped directly into their faces, slapped them, slapped them, and jumped away.
But everyone still showed a good harvest smile, there are really a lot of thorns.
Bai Qiuchu did a quick count, excluding those palm-sized small fish, there were about fifty or sixty big fish in this basket, and each big fish was as long as an arm.
"Let's drag the rattan baskets to the shore and pour out the fish." Bai Qiu commanded everyone, "Empty the baskets, and leave ten people to continue fishing in the rattan baskets, and the remaining half will tear the dead rattans and continue weaving the rattan baskets. In the end, I will deal with the fish with me."
Bai Qiu arranged everything in an orderly manner, and everyone listened to the words of the priest.
Fishing, weaving rattan baskets, they also have the experience just now.
But with the fish, what to do with it?
"Lord Beast God's father told me that the reason why water beasts smell bad is because we haven't handled them well." Bai Qiu picked up a fish, "First we have to scrape off the fish scales."
The sub-orcs follow suit.
After Bai Qiu hangs a fish, he uses a stone knife to gently open the belly of the fish, "Throw away all the things inside, especially the green one inside, because that thing is very bitter, so be careful not to tear it apart."
Don't throw away the excavated viscera. It can be used as bait for traps. It has a strong smell and is easy to attract prey.
After finishing one, Bai Qiu put it directly on the snow, this day is just enough to freeze the fish.
The sub-orcs all have a pair of industrious hands. The priest only demonstrated it once, and they did it in style.
Soon, the sub-orcs fishing came over with a large basket of fish, and the sub-orcs weaving rattan baskets over there also successfully weaved rattan baskets.
Three ice holes were dug.
The sub-orcs cooperate with each other, those who catch fish catch fish, and those who kill fish kill fish.
Counting nine cold days, a bunch of Asian orcs are busy with work.
When the sky gradually darkened, they looked back and realized that they had caught so many fish today.
The fish-killing sub-orcs' fingers were red from the cold, but they still enjoyed it.
This is much more fulfilling than going out to collect before.
"That's all." Bai Qiu also came back to his senses, "Let's carry a few baskets back first, and let the orcs come and carry the rest."
In the cave, the orcs who went out to dig traps today came back with two wild beasts on their shoulders.
Everyone is beaming.
This is the first time they have hunted their prey without fighting.
They worked hard all day from morning to night today, digging a total of ten deep pits, and distributed them in places in the forest where wild animals are likely to appear.
After they dug the hole, when they looked back at the first trap, there was a strong deer lying in it struggling. Climb down the deep pit and lift up the deer beast.
Not a single orc was injured.
The other trap with prey was in a similar situation.
Ten traps, only two prey, but for them, they are already very satisfied.
This meant that they would no longer have to fight their prey every day in the future.
The orcs and sub-orcs staying in the cave also showed smiles on their faces. This was the first time the orcs had hunted such a large prey since the beginning of winter this year, and none of the orcs showed any signs of injury.
This winter, it seems that there is hope.
And with today's prey, their hearts are more stable, and they can't always rely on the blessing of the beast god.
Montenegro greeted the sub-orcs, "Eat the two prey today, don't roast them, cook them like last night."
The Asian orcs started working happily.
"Where is the priest?" Heishan walked around but did not see the priest.
Qing Ze said: "Bai Qiu took the sub-orcs to go fishing, and they haven't come back yet, counting the time, they should be back soon."
If you don't come back, it will be dark.
The education passed down from mouth to mouth by the orcs is that they should not leave the cave at night and must come back before dark.
Late night is dangerous.
Hei Shan looked at the sky, and greeted Bai Ye and another orc, "Let's go and have a look."
Bai Ye was also a little worried. Bai Qiu was his only child, and being a priest was a great honor for the family of three.
Before he went out this morning, he noticed that his son's most precious piece of spotted animal skin was missing. The son said it was dedicated to the friend of the Beast God.
He believed it.
The son must have had a different fortune.
Perhaps, such good fortune can save the current wandering tribes.
Before Heishan and the others walked halfway, they watched from a distance a few figures carrying something back.
They looked at each other, quickly turned into beasts, and ran away.
"My lord, father." Bai Qiu panted, "We caught a lot of thorn beasts today."
Montenegro and the others turned back into human form, "Thank you for your hard work."
They also didn't expect that in addition to collecting wild vegetables and fruits, sub-beasts could also hunt.
Although it is a water beast that everyone doesn't like to eat, it is food anyway.
"Leave it to us." The three orcs took the rattan basket, "Thank you for your hard work today, this rattan container is not bad."
Bai Ye gently rubbed his son's head with his helpless arm, "Thank you for your hard work."
Bai Qiu, "It's not hard, then you can carry these back first, we have to go back to the river, there are still a lot of fish by the river."
Heishan was a little shocked now. He thought that the hundreds of big fish were all the sub-orcs got today, but he didn't expect there to be more?
Bai Ye took a closer look, and found that the thorn beasts in the rattan basket had actually been frozen, but it was not difficult to find that these thorn beasts had been processed, the scales on the surface were gone, and the belly of the fish had also been cut. Opened up.
They eat less watery beasts, but never do fish like this.
Bai Qiu smiled, "This is what the Beast God's father taught me. He said that after handling the fish in this way, it will not smell so bad."
The three orcs nodded thoughtfully, "Then you all go back with us, and we will ask the orcs to carry the water animals later."
Bai Qiu shook his head, "We still have to go back to kill the fish. There are still many fish that haven't been killed. I even picked out a basket of big fish. I want to dedicate it to the beast god. It must be cleaned up."
That's the truth, and it should be.
The Beast God taught them how to hunt in winter, and they should repay the Beast God.
It's just that the beast god can take a fancy to these not so delicious water beasts?
The horned orc who had been fishing silently changed suddenly, "Tie the rattan basket to me, I will carry it back, and then call some orcs over."
If Jiang Qiubai were here, he would know that this was a huge black bull.
The horned orcs are rare orcs with sound limbs in the wandering tribes, and they are descendants of the former wandering tribes.
Although he doesn't have a strong hunting ability, he works hard and everyone likes him very much.
"Uncle, call more people." Bai Qiu said, "We really caught a lot of fish today, and we will try to move them all back, so that everyone can have a full meal."
The bull orc mooed, turned around and walked back.
Heishan and Baiye followed Baiqiu and the others back to the river, and they were all frightened dumbfounded.
This, this, this, how come there are so many thorn beasts?Pile up like a mountain of silver.
The Asian orcs continued to kill fish, weave rattan baskets, and work together in division of labor.
Although everyone's hands are red from the cold, as long as they think that they will be full tonight, everyone is full of energy.
Bai Qiu also brought the returning suborcs to work with the leader.
Soon, the bull orcs also came with a group of people, both orcs and sub-orcs.
"You all go to rest." Qing Ze felt sorry for everyone, "It's been a busy day, leave the rest to us."
On this winter evening, the sunset glow burned the sky red, and the paleness between the sky and the earth became a little more vibrant.
In the collective cave, basket after basket of fish was sent back, and the suborc man who was usually in charge of cooking the meat couldn't close his mouth with laughter.
Haven't seen so much food in a long time.
And the sub-orcs were joking, "Tomorrow I have to dig a few more stone pots, otherwise there won't be enough to cook."
The clansmen laughed heartily.
The bottom of my heart is extremely happy.
When all the clansmen returned to the cave, it was completely dark.
In the cave, the fish soup was boiled to a pure white, except for a slight fishy smell, there was no fishy and smelly feeling like before.
Bai Qiu was given a large bowl full of fish meat, two small sticks danced so fast that he even chewed and swallowed the fishbone.
Delicious.
Although this fish is not as delicious as the one eaten in the temple last night, it is still very delicious food for him.
The other clansmen also felt the same way, it turns out that water beasts can be so delicious.
When they thought that the river was full of all kinds of water animals, everyone became even more excited.
Especially the Asian orcs who participated in fishing today, they gathered together, exchanged experiences with each other, and made an appointment to continue fishing tomorrow.
"The horn of this deer beast, let us also dedicate it to the beast god." The leader Heishan said, "This represents the courage of our wandering tribe warriors."
The antlers are complete and beautiful, Bai Qiu did not refuse.
By the time everyone had almost eaten, it was already very late.
"I'm going to see the Beast God soon." Bai Qiu said, "Don't disturb my sleep."
The leader, Heishan, was waiting in full force, "Master Priest, don't worry, your father and I will guard you and will never let anyone disturb you."
Bai Qiu clenched the Qiankun bag in his hand, antlers and a basket of cleanly cleaned big fish were placed beside him.
Everything was ready, Bai Qiu thought about everything in the temple, and slowly closed his eyes, his consciousness gradually became chaotic.
in the tavern.
Jiang Qiubai held the ruler with hatred, and tapped the table impatiently.
He is tutoring Jiang Miao's homework.
The schedule he set for Jiang Miao was to study the knowledge in modern textbooks with him in the morning, go to Moying to learn spells in the afternoon, and come back to do homework in the evening.
Jiang Miao kneaded her head into a chicken coop, holding the pen holder in one hand, and wrote abcd stroke by stroke.
"Dad, don't you even need to sleep?" Jiang Miao felt like she was going crazy.
Jiang Qiubai actually didn't know that he was the reason, anyway, his drowsiness was getting less and less, and he couldn't sleep for three or four hours a day.
He patted the table with a ruler, "If you study hard, Dad can go to bed early."
Jiang Miao sighed and continued to do his homework.
He didn’t go to bed until 4 o’clock this morning. His father told him to get up at 8:9, wash up and eat breakfast. He started studying at 11 o’clock, Chinese and mathematics. There were only two subjects until [-] o’clock, and he had a rest for lunch.
After lunch, he originally wanted to sleep for a while, but his father came again, and without saying a word, he carried him to the fairy palace, and he was busy all afternoon learning spells.
If he didn't study well, he would have to be scolded by his father.
He just came back at night, after dinner, he still has to do the homework assigned by his father.
Hey.. Meow life is too difficult.
Can't he be a simple cat that sleeps after eating?
Jiang Qiubai was helpless, and he didn't teach much today, but Jiang Miao deserted after sitting for less than 5 minutes, which slowed down the teaching progress.
He finally understood how those parents who tutored their children with their homework ended up with a heart attack.
Yu Keke was also holding a pen and a notebook, and he was accompanying him.
But he is an adult, and he usually improves himself through self-study. He studied with Jiang Miao just to accompany Jiang Miao.
Jiang Miao wrote and wrote, the crooked pinyin is too difficult, Jiang Qiubai didn't pay attention, and he started to lose his mind again.
I don't know when his younger brother will come.
Just thinking about it, the teleportation array lit up.
"Xiao Baiqiu." With sharp eyes, Jiang Miao recognized the figure in the teleportation array, immediately put down the homework in her hand, and ran over, "Why did you come here? I've been waiting for you for a long time."
Faced with the beast god's enthusiasm, Bai Qiu was instinctively cautious, "There are too many fish caught today, and it took a lot of time just to kill them."
Jiang Qiubai came over and carried Jiang Miao away, "You can only play with Bai Qiu after you finish your homework."
That homework is nothing more than ten minutes. It has been more than half an hour, and I haven't finished half of it yet.
Jiang Qiubai also has a headache, his son is quite smart, isn't he?Why is it so slow to learn something?
"Bai Qiu sit down first, talk to the empress and the others, Jiang Miao still has to do homework." Jiang Qiubai invited him to sit with the empress and the others, and they could also chat.
Empress Empress and Xu Ruoqing also kindly invited him to come and sit down, and even poured honey water for him.
Bai Qiu looked at his beast god, then at Boss Jiang, and carefully handed over the Qiankun bag
