Chapter 61

"Is it cooked yet? Give me one quickly. I just tasted it."

Xu ignored Qi's dissatisfied expression, looked at the golden pie, and hurriedly reached out his hand with an empty stomach.

"I want one too!"

Several snow werewolf warriors were also furious. They didn't care about who could wrap the better one and pounced on the food like hungry wolves.

Fortunately, there were a lot of pies in a pot. Qi felt disgusted when he saw everyone grabbing two pies and wolfing them down.

He felt a warmth in his hands. It turned out that the little cub had also given him two, and was looking at him with sparkling eyes.

"Brother Qi, you haven't eaten yet, right? Here you go."

Yu Sui was too embarrassed to reach out to take anything, so the big minotaur next to him, slurping his saliva, also took two.

"Ahem." Seeing that several people were about to finish dividing the food, Heiyan couldn't help coughing twice, and after attracting attention, he quickly took the plate.

Although the first pot of pies was still warm, it was not as delicious as the ones fresh out of the pot. The experienced Heiyan and Bombur quickly took a few pieces. Seeing this, the others were no longer polite and quickly divided up the whole plate of steaming pies.

The crust was even crispier than the one they had just eaten, and unimaginable deliciousness burst in their mouths. Chief Kun, Biqi and others, impressed by the food, had already believed that this cub was very smart, otherwise how could anyone make such amazing food.

A few pies were just a snack for Biqi. After all, he was a vegetarian minotaur, but he didn't expect to be conquered by the meat filling in the pie today.

Bi Qi walked up to the conspicuous cub and saw that he was making dough seriously. The dough in his hands was whiter than theirs.

After the reddish-brown minotaur finished eating the cake, he also followed suit and did the same seriously without even looking up, which made Bi Qi speechless.

"Cub, is your flour made from that stone?" Biqi asked as he came closer.

Yu Sui, who was wrapping and flattening the pies, came back to his senses, followed the Minotaur's gaze, nodded and replied, "Yes, that's called a stone mill. It grinds flour quickly and labor-savingly."

Guessing that the Minotaur wanted to know the principle of the stone mill, Yu Sui scratched his head.

"But we have just ground the wheat prepared in the house into flour. Otherwise, we can demonstrate it to you."

This was not a problem in the Red Grass Tribe. The Crooked-Horned Minotaur also wanted to participate in the fun activity of making pie, but was sent away by Biqi to get wheat.

After baking a pot of pies, Qi can also grasp the approximate temperature and is responsible for baking the pies.

He threw the pie into the pot much more easily than Yu Sui, accurately and quickly.

Several snow wolves could take over the process of making pies, so Yu Sui found a large clay pot from the kitchen and cut the dried meat prepared by the minotaur into thin slices to make broth.

The Tauren tribe was wealthy and not short of salt. Their dried meat was rubbed with salt and then dried in the sun, so there was no rotten smell. It was similar to the bacon he had eaten before, and it was very good for making bacon soup.

"It would be nice if there were some cabbage and tofu." Yu Sui muttered as he threw bacon slices into the clay pot. As a northerner, he wanted to put tofu and cabbage in the broth.

"Don't you snow werewolves only eat meat? If you want vegetables, we have plenty."

When Biqi heard the cub's mumbling, he was very curious. He had never heard of a snow werewolf wanting to eat vegetables. The only time they ate grain was because it was easier to store in winter.

But this cub was so strange that it was not surprising for him to come up with any idea, so he asked another minotaur to bring him some food.

Upon seeing this, Yu Sui hurriedly thanked him.

"But what is tofu?" asked Biqi.

Yu Sui gave him a mysterious smile and put his index finger on his lips. "I'll tell you tomorrow."

With malicious intentions, Yu Sui kept the secret and built a bonfire nearby, placing the clay pot on it.

Biqi's curiosity was aroused and he felt itchy in his heart, as if being swept back and forth by feathers. Seeing that the cub had gone to the side to busy himself with making dinner, he did not continue to ask questions and scratched his mane helplessly.

The cold wind outside was strong. Bi Qi wanted to wait and see if the millstone worked properly, so he didn't go into the house. Everyone waited outside with him.

As it got darker and the temperature dropped, the Xu family felt that the dough had become hard even by the fire, making it difficult to wrap the meat filling in it, so they moved the chopping board inside and took it out directly to bake after rolling it out.

The orcs were all wearing simple animal skins, and no one felt cold standing in the cold wind. The Tauren, on the other hand, were all wearing cotton clothes underneath, which looked very comfortable.

As a cub, Yu Sui was not in good health, so Lu made him an inner coat with cotton cloth when he went out. Although her craftsmanship was not good, Yu Sui was very grateful for her care.

At this moment, he was wearing a cotton coat and a thick animal skin on the outside, and he didn't feel cold by the fire.

Bombur, on the other hand, quietly went into the house and put on another piece of clothing. Compared to humans, the dwarves were already strong enough, but the winter on this continent was too cold.

This is also the reason why they can live here. Although it is cold, it effectively blocks the smuggling of humans. At least they can live a stable life in winter.

The broth in the clay pot was boiling slowly. Yu Sui added onion, garlic powder and fish bone powder into it. It was a little simple, but drinking a bowl of hot soup in winter was a great happiness.

After a while, Yu Sui heard the powerful footsteps of the minotaurs. He looked up and saw that it was indeed the two minotaurs who came back with things, carrying large and small bags.

Well, Yu Sui thought they were just taking a small amount for an experiment, but he didn't expect these two people to be too practical. Whether it was the vegetables they gave him or the wheat for grinding flour, they were all in huge bags.

When the two men came closer, they put the heavy packages on their shoulders to the ground together, making a dull sound.

It was even more shocking when the two big bags were placed on the ground. The sacks were stuffed so full that they were a head taller than Yu Sui.

Is this the work of the Tauren? They are indeed the wealthiest orc tribe! Yu Sui's mouth opened in shock.

"I don't know what dishes you want to eat, so I brought you several, all of which I like!"

It was a rare orc who wanted to eat vegetables, so the reddish-brown tauren enthusiastically opened the package for him and shared his favorite dishes with him.

It's hard for these vegetarian tauren to meet an orc who shares the same hobby! Most of the orcs who come here are carnivores, and it would be boring if they don't have anyone to share food with.

"This one is crispy and sweet, and it becomes crunchy when cooked in soup or grilled. It's delicious!"

He took out a yellow-brown round fruit and handed it to Yu Sui.

Isn’t this a potato? Yu Sui’s eyes widened in shock, holding the potato that was as big as a football in his hand, and tears almost welled up in his eyes.

"This leafy green vegetable is sweet when cooked in soup or eaten raw. It also preserves well. We grow a lot of it every year."

The minotaur took out a long, green vegetable and stuffed it into Yu Sui's arms.
