Jungle Throne

She didn't dare to drink the water in the river directly like Meng Luo did.Although this aquatic drinking is not a big problem for people with strong physique, at most it will cause diarrhea, but Gao Zhige doesn't want to have diarrhea, so he would rather take the trouble and boil the water before drinking.

Munro saw the knife for the first time.

She didn't expect that such a small and thin piece could be so hard and sharp, and it could cut the long-tusked beast's skin so easily, and the meat cutting became convenient and simple because of it.Even when they were in the clan before, the orcs used their teeth and sharp claws to tear their prey into pieces before handing them over to the females to make mature meat.

Although sometimes females will use some sharp stone flakes instead of teeth and claws to cut meat, but those are completely incomparable with this thing called a knife.

Meng Luo familiarly used a knife to cut from the lower door of the long-toothed beast all the way to the neck. After making a long cut, he began to tear both sides of the cut with his hands, and slowly peeled off the whole skin with force.

"It's finished!" Soon, Meng Luo peeled off the whole animal skin.Holding the peeled animal skin in both hands, she came to Gao Zhige with an expression of invitation.

"Yeah." Although some places were accidentally scratched by the other party with a knife, it is still usable overall.This animal skin can probably be used as clothes for two people, right?Gao Zhige thought to herself, she might live here for a long time in the future, and follow the Romans in the countryside, so those clothes she used to wear can no longer be worn.

"Let's put it in the water for a while." Gao Zhige took the animal skin and put it in the river, with the fur facing down, and the four corners were lightly pressed with stones to prevent it from being washed away.Although she didn't know how to make a good boiled skin, it would be absolutely fine if she operated according to the principle.

The biggest difference between cooked hide and raw hide is that the protein structure of the inner layer of the former has changed, so she just needs to find a way to denature the protein of this animal hide, so that the hide will not rot easily.

Of course, before that, the meat film and fat on the leather had to be cleaned, and the smell had to be removed, she didn't want to smell that stench every day.

Meng Luo cut the best piece of meat from the long-toothed beast and handed it to Gao Zhige.Gao Zhige saw that the meat was almost covered with fat, white, yellow and mixed together.The pungent fishy smell and the stimulating visual enjoyment made her almost vomit out the instant noodles she ate at noon yesterday.

Fat meat was what she hated the most, but seeing Meng Luo's appearance of offering treasure, she couldn't say no to it.

Just about to take over that big piece of fat, Gao Zhige suddenly thought of something, and said, "Help me hold it first", and then ran not far away to pick off a few large leaves, crossed and stacked them, so that The other party put the fat on the leaves.

Meng Luo didn't understand, so she had to put the meat on the leaves as the female said, thinking in her heart: Why is it different from what she thought?When I was a child, my mother was very happy when I saw my father give the fat meat to my mother. Fat meat is a good thing, and only the orcs who go out to hunt can eat it. After all, females should be happy... You can see The other party's reaction doesn't seem to be unhappy...

"Meng Luo!" Gao Zhige shouted happily, "Is there any more like this?"

"Is it fat?" Meng Luo thought for a while, then shook his head, "Only this part of the long-toothed beast is fat, and there are very few other parts."

"That's it..." Although Gao Zhige knew the result, Gao Zhige still felt a little disappointed. "I want to use it to refine oil, but it..." She gestured at the size of the piece of fat, trying to express that it might not be enough.

Seeing Meng Luo looking at the piece of fat meat with a thoughtful expression, she thought that the other party might not know what oil is, so she patted him on the shoulder: "Oil is a good thing. It tastes delicious, and it can be used as soap to remove the smell from animal skins..."

Meng Luo listened half-understood, she didn't know what soap was, but oil can make meat delicious... Could it be as delicious as the meat of yellow-skinned deer?

Gao Zhige ran to the long-toothed beast's body with a knife, cut off two hind legs and roasted them.Meng Luo was silent for a while, and then suddenly turned back into a lion, biting the long-toothed beast's body and was about to walk away.

"Hey! Meng Luo, where are you going?" Gao Zhige looked at the other party's appearance, thinking that it might be what she thought, right?

"Eat meat." Because of biting something, Meng Luo's voice was a little fuzzy, but Gao Zhige could still hear it clearly.

"You won't just eat that?" Gao Zhige broke down, "Aren't you going to roast it?"

Meng Luo thought for a while: "Beastmen eat raw, not cooked."

"Then didn't you eat a piece of cooked meat yesterday?"

"..."

"Look, I even roasted a piece for you..." Gao Zhige thought that the other party didn't know how to roast meat, so he could only eat raw meat all the time.

The huge lion still stood there motionless, as if he had no intention of turning back.

Gao Zhige looked at the other party unwillingly.One person and one beast are in such a stalemate.In the end, the lion's body moved first, and Gao Zhige felt a moment of joy, but when she saw that the other party was walking in the opposite direction, she couldn't help feeling depressed.

She can only comfort herself with cultural differences, but what she thinks in her heart is whether one day she who is incompatible with this place will be burned to death as a heretic.

He even took a few mouthfuls of the grilled tendon meat, and he no longer had the appetite to eat any more.

Gao Zhige thought wildly for a while, then ran to the river to dig mud.She had to keep herself busy so that she wouldn't let herself think about it.What's more, she does have a lot of things to do, such as the animal skin, for example, she has to make several containers.

Can't always use the lunch box in her kettle.

In short, if she wants to survive here, she still has a lot of things to do.

It took Gao Zhige almost an hour to pick out the tiny stones and branches from the mud.Meng Luo had already finished eating and came back, lying on the side and looking at her curiously.

Gao Zhige ignored her. To be precise, she didn't know how to face the other party, especially when she knew that the other party ate raw meat.Even if the opponent changes back into a beast form to eat.In her heart, ever since Meng Luo turned into a human form in front of her, she had seen him as a human being, not just a lion.

Gao Zhige was troubled in her heart, so she had no choice but to pretend that she couldn't see the other party, and only concentrated on making her own clay bowl.She first sprinkled a layer of plant ash on the smooth and flat stone, and then slapped a ball of mud on it, flattening it into a round cake.Then pinch a layer higher on the edge of the circle, then go to get the mud ball, rub it into long strips, put it down along the edge of the round cake, pinch the joints flat, and connect them into a whole. In this way, circle by circle Stack up.

She pinched three more bowls in the same way, and put the four bowls in the shade to dry.In order to do it faster, she also cleared an open space there, set up a fire, and put the four bowls near the fire to dry.

While waiting, she went to the river to pick up a stone that was easier to shape into an adze, and then began to grind it with difficulty.

Meng Luo looked at the other party busy inside and out, thinking that Gao's mother must be the high priest in the clan, and Gao is the future high priest.Only the high priest can create the fire of heaven, and can create so many strange things.The high priest can communicate with the beast god. After the god taught the high priest these things, the high priest then taught them to the tribe.

Seeing that Gao seemed to be grinding very hard, she changed back into a human form and volunteered to go up to help her grind.Meng Luo had seen in the tribe how the tribe sharpened the stone before, and thought that Gao must also want to sharpen the stone.

Grinding the stone is really tiring. Gao Zhige didn't eat anything, so she hardly had the energy to grind the stone, but when she saw the leftover roasted tendons just now, she would think of the scene of Meng Luo eating raw meat, and she felt even more fond of meat in her heart. Nausea.No matter how hungry I am, I have no desire to eat.

After Gao Zhige handed over the work of grinding the stone adze to Meng Luo, she looked at the four bowls with a tired face.

Hmm... have to wait a while.

Gao Zhige added some more branches, and then sat down under the tree.She was staring at the void in a daze, but in the end she fell asleep without knowing it.

In a daze, she seemed to hear someone talking in her ear, and then she didn't know who fed her a bowl of bitter-tasting water.She didn't want to drink, but a force opened her mouth tightly and forced her to drink the bitter water.Even so, she was surprised that she didn't wake up, but fell asleep again.

She didn't know how long she slept for, but when Gao Zhige woke up, she found that her throat was so thirsty that she barely made a sound, and then someone came to give her water.

This time the water is finally not bitter, but warm and cool, with a hint of sweetness.Gao Zhige drank to his heart's content, and when he opened his eyes, he saw Meng Luo's face that was so excited that he was about to cry.

"Gao, you survived!" Meng Luo didn't know how to express his mood at this moment.No one knew that when she saw Gao Zhige who had fallen asleep, she suddenly felt panic for no reason.Sure enough, when she ran over to wake her up, she couldn't wake her up, and suddenly remembered that her grandmother had fallen asleep like this before, and she couldn't wake up again.

She was suddenly afraid that Gao would be like Grandma, that she would never wake up after falling asleep!

Meng Luo thought of an old wandering orc living outside the forest, and without caring about anything else, she immediately changed back into a beast shape, carried Gao Zhige on her back, and ran out of the forest.

The wandering orc was a female orc. When her tribe was still there, she helped the high priest of the tribe with work and knew a little witchcraft.Later, the tribe was destroyed, and she refused to join other tribes, so she became a wandering orc.When he was old, he lived in a cave outside the forest, seeing a doctor for people passing by and nearby, and exchanging materials for living.

After traveling to a strange world, Gao Zhige was not acclimatized, and was frightened for two consecutive days. In addition, he was tired, did not have enough rest, and did not eat... A series of problems caused a low-grade fever.

At this time, she didn't realize it, and when she was kneading the bowl by the river, she got wet and got cold, and her condition worsened.Munro had already developed a high fever when he sent her to the wandering orcs.Originally, the wandering orcs didn't want to save her when they saw her like this. In her words, their souls were summoned by the beast gods, and they were ready to serve the gods, and they couldn't come back.

Meng Luo didn't believe it, maybe it was the last time her mother left her like this, and she could only watch her mother leave, the feeling of her own powerlessness made her feel obsessed.

That is to save Gao.

Meng Luo told the other party to use five animal skins, one of which was the skin of an adult long-nosed beast, to save Gao, and also exchanged Gao's knife to the other party.

The wandering orcs have never seen such a strange "stone knife". She is old and her teeth and claws are no longer sharp, but this "stone knife" just makes up for her shortcoming.She hesitated for a moment, finally gritted her teeth, turned around and took out a pill.

She said: "When my tribe was here, the high priest gave it to me. It is a life-saving thing given by God. I want to keep it for myself, but now... feed her to eat, can she live? Come down and see God’s will.”

Meng Luo did not doubt that he was there, nodded quickly, carefully took the pill bestowed by the gods, and fed the medicine into Gao Zhige's mouth with a nervous expression, and felt relieved after watching the other party take the medicine.

As expected, Gao Zhige's fever subsided, and then he was given other medicines for wandering orcs. After falling into a coma for a whole day, he finally woke up.
