Chapter 25 Ancient Reconstruction

It was the first time that it was so lively outside Luo Jiu and the others' cave.

There were so many onlookers, and the ground was filled with pots, pans, and utensils.

Cheng Yaoyao rolled out a folding round table from the hole, and then threw out a dozen stools.

Feng Qi also took out the oven. There was so much meat, they couldn't just stew it all, could they? She took out a pair of skewers and taught the caveman how to skewer the bear meat.

Gradually, everyone began to take some spontaneous actions.

Several people went over to wash the meat with Zhong Jialing, Datian's mother and Feng Qi cut the meat together, and Datian's sister-in-law took a piece of firewood and started to drill it to make a fire.

Luo Jiu quickly went over with a lighter and said, "Let's use this."

"ah!"

The flames that burst out scared the primitive man again.

Every time Luo Jiu showed them something, he would tell them about the dangers involved, to prevent them from getting hurt.

Luo Jiu handed the lighter in his hand to Datian. They had stockpiled more than 30,000 of these things, so he gave one to them first.

Datian held it carefully in his hand, not knowing where to put it. Cheng Yaoyao found her a crossbody bag and hung it on her body, and Datian carefully put the lighter in it.

"Call your eldest brother over, let's have dinner together later." Cheng Yaoyao said and gestured, and Datian really ran west, and soon he came over with her eldest brother.

It seemed that he was recovering well, but had a slight fever. Luo Jiu changed his medicine and asked him to take a few more antibiotics.

His wife happily helped him put on his clothes and pants, and taught him to call everyone, "Auntie, Second Auntie, Third Auntie, Little Auntie."

The four of them responded reluctantly and smiled helplessly, feeling mixed emotions inside.

Today, Cheng Yaoyao was in charge of cooking and set up two large iron pots.

One pot is used to make stewed sauerkraut and bear bones, and the other pot is used to make deep-fried bear meat strips and bear meat stewed with mushrooms and chicken.

While the bear bone soup is stewing and the sauerkraut is ready, throw some wolfberries in for nourishment.

Heat up some oil in a pan. Cheng Yaoyao had never cooked bear meat before, but she thought that even if this ancient bear had parasites, it would die if it was fried in hot oil.

She poured a bucket of oil and fried the meat until it was brown and fragrant, then sprinkled salt on it. Feng Qi came over greedily, "Why does it smell so good?"

Cheng Yaoyao fished out a large bowl and said, "It should be cooked. Try it."

Feng Qi took a bite and said, "Ouch!"

Zhong Jialing smiled when she heard the voice, "Have you turned into a caveman too? Why are you shouting along?"

She said vaguely, "It's hot!" It was hot, but it smelled so good that I gave her a thumbs up.

Cheng Yaoyao served two plates and asked Datian to distribute the rest to her tribesmen.

Distributing the food was apparently a sacred task, which Datian again handed over to her mother.

Datian's mother was holding the pot of meat, looking very excited. She raised her head and was about to scream, but Luo Jiu quickly covered her mouth.

"No, no, no, let's not make a fuss about it. We know you're grateful, just eat it, and stop shouting, our ears can't take it anymore."

She gestured for a while, and Datian's mother understood what she meant and silently distributed the dried meat to everyone, one handful per person.

The freshly fried meat, still covered in oil, sizzled loudly, and it burned them so much that their hands and mouths were burned, and they couldn't help but scream.

Datian's mother walked up to the person who was shouting, and slapped him on the back of the head. She mumbled something and it was unclear what she was saying. Anyway, she pointed at Luo Jiu and her ears, meaning that Second Mother thought they were noisy and should stop shouting.

So everyone endured the heat in silence. Cheng Yaoyao quickly put down the things in her hands and went to the space to get a pile of plates.

That was what she stockpiled at the beginning. Later, everyone who saw it said it looked like a school cafeteria or prison, the same stainless steel plates that many schools use.

No one wanted to use them, and later on, a lot of bowls, plates and other things were hoarded, and these were placed in the space. Now it is just the right time to take them out and give them to the primitive people.

Each person was given a plate, and they were not stupid, they immediately knew to put the meat on it.

I quickly taught them how to use the matching stainless steel bowls, spoons, and chopsticks, otherwise when the meat is ready, I really won’t know how they will eat it.

The oil used to fry the meat was not wasted. Cheng Yaoyao put it in an enamel jar and saved it for frying next time.

Then I put the bear meat into the pot and chopped up a chicken. After frying them until golden brown, I added various seasonings and then filled a large pot with water, covered the pot and simmered it slowly.

Cheng Yaoyao calculated that old hen meat usually needs to be stewed for two to three hours, so bear meat should take at least four hours, right?

She took a pair of scissors and asked Datian, "Do you want to cut your hair? It's inconvenient for you to have such long hair like us. If you want, I can cut it for you."

The two people talked for a while, and Datian pointed at Feng Qi's head and then at himself.

"Ah? You want to cut your hair into a buzz cut?" Cheng Yaoyao couldn't believe it. Most girls thought Feng Qi's hairstyle was too short. Is this what Datian meant?

She let down all of Datian's hair, which was more than two meters long. She cut it to her shoulders first. Datian touched it and continued to let her cut it.

Luo Jiu went in to get something and came out, she saw that the haircut had already started outside, so she searched the space again.

Didn’t they stockpile 20,000 cups of milk tea and 10,000 cups of coffee before?

When the store delivered them, they all came in bags. They were busy stocking up and didn't have time to unpack them one by one, so they just put them all in at once.

In modern times, these takeaway bags are thrown away after being opened. But now, these bags are still quite sturdy. In ancient times, they could be recycled.

Luo Jiu opened a dozen bags of Ba Wang Cha Ji and gave them to Da Tian, ​​asking her to pack the hair as a souvenir. She could take the rest back and pack other things.

At this moment, Datian has changed his look. He is wearing a vest and shorts and has a buzz cut. He looks like Feng Qi No. 2.

Luo Jiu touched her head and she looked very happy.

These cavemen lined up to get their hair cut. For convenience, all men had their heads shaved bald, while women could have shoulder-length hair, short hair, or a crew cut, as they wished.

Soon, there was a pile of hair on the ground. Zhong Jialing gave them a mirror, and they rushed to look at it, as if they were seeing themselves for the first time.

Zhong Jialing swept the hair on the floor and soon found that the broom was covered with hair stubble. She was too lazy to pick them off as there was plenty of them anyway.

Datian rushed over to sweep the floor clean, and Zhong Jialing told her, "This is also for you. You can take it after lunch."

Today, Luo Jiu focused on teaching Datian a few words: take away, knife, danger, come, go, and hair.

When Datian heard the word "take away", his eyes lit up. He quickly put it on the pile of bags beside her, and would never forget it.

No one knew what the others were whispering to each other. A few of them came up to Luo Jiu, made some gestures, and then went east together.

Except for Datian, her elder brother and his wife, all the others ran away.

Luo Jiu asked Datian: "What are they doing?"

Datian couldn't speak like those people, but she had learned to act. She pointed at the water in the basin, then lay on the ground and pretended to splash water.

"Oh, they went to take a shower." Luo Jiu suddenly smiled.

Cheng Yaoyao asked hurriedly: "What did you think of?"

Luo Jiu said: "Guess, do they know to take off their clothes when taking a bath?"

"Ah!" Cheng Yaoyao suddenly realized and sighed, "I'm not afraid that they won't take off their clothes. I'm afraid that they will be washed away by the water after taking off their clothes."

Luo Jiu snapped his fingers. "Comrades, guess without any prizes, will they come back with clothes on?"
