Chapter 317 Bamboo Rice



Even though the orcs of the Mountain Stream Tribe and the Stone Horn Tribe get more nutrients from plants than the Green Mountain Tribe and the Water Forest Tribe, they still have to eat meat.

Although the effect on the beast form is not that great, they still told Xia that rice can reduce the food intake of the beast-human form by half.

Soon everyone in Qingshan City knew the news, and the rice department sent more people.

In order to prevent this important food from being destroyed by wild beasts, the nearby wild beasts suffered again.

While resting at night, Meng Yuqing was suddenly awakened.

Xuan sensed his movement and quickly got up and hugged him, asking, "What's wrong? Did you have a nightmare?"

Meng Yuqing turned his head away so Xuan wouldn't see his face. He put his hand over his eyes and said, "It's okay, go to sleep."

Xuan looked at him without moving. He could feel that Meng Yuqing was in a bad mood.

Meng Yuqing pushed Xuan with her other hand, saying, "It's really nothing, I just miss home. I just dreamed about my parents."

This reason seemed to convince Xuan. He patted Meng Yuqing's shoulder and lay down.

Meng Yuqing put down his hand and felt the wetness on it.

He had a dream. In the dream, he saw himself staying well in his own home. His mother was cooking in the kitchen, his father was cleaning the living room with a broom, and he was sitting in his room watching online classes to prepare for going ashore.

Everything was the same as he remembered his life, except for the date, which he remembered clearly. The date on the tablet was the day he traveled through time.

But at that time, I should not be at home, but have gone out to buy something and have not returned yet.

If I hadn't gone out at that time, I wouldn't have been hit.

All the warmth, peace and happiness in the dream

If it were just this, it would be a sweet dream for Meng Yuqing.

Just as he stood up and prepared to walk around the house, his mother's voice rang out from the kitchen.

“It’s time to eat!”

He subconsciously wanted to get a bowl from the cupboard to serve the rice.

The moment his hand touched the bowl, the scene shattered like glass hitting the ground.

The scene changed, and he appeared in a place that looked like the ancient Roman Colosseum.

A giant black beast stood in the center, panting heavily, blood flowing down its body, creating small blood flowers.

He stared straight at the giant beast. As if sensing his gaze, the beast slowly turned its head, its eyes filled with brutality and murderous intent that had not yet dissipated.

The giant beast's face was covered with crisscrossing old scars, deep enough to reveal the bones.

In addition to cuts from sharp objects, there are also burns.

There is not a single good spot on the whole face.

Only those pair of dark green eyes seemed particularly familiar to him.

After that, the giant beast's silhouette gradually faded, the entire arena was engulfed in flames, and shrill roars were heard everywhere.

After the fire was extinguished, the giant beast stood at the highest point and watched everything, his eyes calm, with countless giant beasts following behind him.

Those dark green eyes seemed so familiar, yet their expression seemed so strange.

Finally, the behemoth left without looking back, leading the other behemoths behind him.

At this time, Meng Yuqing, who had been trying to wake himself up, finally woke up.

He sat on the bed for a long time, called the system, and said, "I had a dream?"

"A lot of things have changed." The system replied.

"Okay." He didn't ask any further questions.

Lying down again, he snuggled into Xuan's arms and put his arms around Xuan's waist.

Xuan touched his back and hugged him tight.

When Meng Yuqing got up the next day, Xuan had already cut the bamboo, washed it and soaked it in water.

After Meng Yuqing finished washing up, she began to prepare the ingredients for making bamboo tube rice.

Then cut the bacon and vegetables into cubes, put them in a pot, add salt and seasonings and stir-fry until cooked. Then pour the washed rice directly into the pot and stir well. Finally, put them into a bamboo tube, add an appropriate amount of water, and start steaming them.

As the rice was cooked, the fragrance spread out, and even Meng Yuqing, who was sitting next to Bing in a daze, couldn't help swallowing.

Looking at the wooden barrel rice that was about to be served, he was not as excited as he was yesterday.

The fragrance travels far, especially for orcs with keen noses.

Not long after, he saw a few guys who had turned into beasts and kept twitching their noses trotting towards him.

The one running in the front was Mu, followed by Lie and some little orcs about ten years old, some of whom were carrying little sub-beasts on their backs.

Lian changed into a human form and sat on Mu's back. He kept patting Mu's back and shouted loudly, "Xiongxiong, charge! You must grab the delicious food from the evil Xuan."

Mu Ye said loudly, "Be brave, bear, and don't be afraid of difficulties!"

Because Meng Yuqing sometimes tells stories to the cubs, he certainly doesn't use the tone of voice used to coax children in fairy tale books. When it comes to the climax of the story, his tone can even become very childish.

Lian still goes to the place where the orphaned orcs live from time to time to take care of them.

Mu Helie would also take the little beastmen out to play from time to time, so he heard these stories from the little beastmen.

After hearing what Lian said, the little orcs following behind them also shouted, "Charge, charge!"

Xuan and Meng Yuqing both looked over there at the same time. Mu had already jumped over the gate and entered the yard. The people following him also jumped in from the bamboo railings. Then they saw Xuan standing in front of them with his arms folded.

Even though Xuan was only in human form, Mu and the others subconsciously stopped moving forward.

Lian Ye just closed his mouth and pressed his whole body against Mu's back to prevent Xuan from seeing him.

There was a little orc behind Mu who failed to brake in time and bumped directly into Mu's leg. Mu was caught off guard and was knocked forward a step.

Lian grabbed a handful of Mu's hair and said, "How brave! You dare to move forward?"

Mu hissed and turned around and said, "Lian, you hurt me. Did you pull out a lot of my hair?"

When Lian heard Mu's "hiss", he knew he could no longer hide. Mu's mouth was too fast and he didn't even have time to "shush".

Lie at the back was already thinking of backing out. If Xuan wasn't there, they would come over and say a few nice words to Meng Yuqing. Meng Yuqing would definitely warmly invite them to try his new food.

Of course, we are just here to try something, it is impossible for us to stay here and wait for a full meal.

The most you can do is ask how the food is made, and then go home and try to make it yourself.

Meng Yuqing looked at the furry creatures in the yard, clenched his fists and put them to his mouth, then laughed twice.

Xuan turned his head to look at him, then his gaze fell on Mu and the others, and said in a good mood, "I'll give you a little bit."

"Okay! We'll just eat a little bit."

Hearing Xuan Song's words, Lian immediately poked his head out from Mu's back. He stretched out his hand and gestured a little with his thumb and little finger.

"Let's all turn into human form. It's so dusty when you run in beast form." Xuan stretched out his hand and fanned in front of his nose.

Everyone quickly changed back into human form and ran to the open space to sit in rows.
