Lianyi did not doubt Lu's words. Meng behind her took the bag of salt, and they left the edge of the Peacock Tribe's territory again.
Xiang hardly stopped along the way and returned to the tribe in seven days. He went straight to see the tribe leader, explained the situation, and handed over the things in the wicker basket.
Chief Dan immediately sent someone to invite the tribe's witch, as only the witch could tell the difference.
After a while, the witch of the peacock clan came. She was a beautiful and charming female. After listening to Xiang's words and seeing the things in the basket, she especially fell in love with the peacock-colored linen.
"If what Xiang and the others said is correct, that female should be the recently rumored Beast God Messenger. The bear tribe witch told me that if I send her an invitation now, she should be able to sense it. When she enters the tribe, I will be able to sense it more clearly."
"Okay, then I'll trouble the witch to invite her and her followers into the tribe."
Patriarch Dan immediately said that he attached more importance to these fresh foods.
The witch nodded, walked out of the tree house, and stood on the platform outside the tree house, muttering something. Because of her actions, a breeze blew through the surrounding woods, as if conveying her invitation.
Lianyi was looking at the fruit that Meng had picked. It was a white fruit as big as a football with a very hard shell. Lianyi was knocking it when the leaves above her head suddenly made a rustling sound.
“It’s quite fast.”
Lianyi put down the white fruit in her hand, stood up and said to Meng:
"We are now setting out to enter the territory of the Peacock Tribe. Their witch has invited me."
Meng believed that silence was a virtue, nodded, and went to find Du, Wei, and Wen Nuan who were resting.
After everyone learned that they could enter the Peacock Tribe’s territory, they went straight to find Green and walked towards the tribe slowly.
When Lu learned that Lianyi was invited by Wu, he was not surprised at all, and his attitude became more respectful.
While on the road, Lianyi split the white fruit and found white powder inside, which was very fine. After tasting it, Lianyi found that it was starchy, so she started to develop this new food on the road.
She first mixed the powder with water and kneaded it into dough, then covered the dough with a wet cloth. After leaving it for a while, she pressed it gently and the dough became fluffy. She asked Du to chop a piece of meat, then added some onion and ginger to the meat paste for seasoning, and made a pot of meat buns.
After being steamed in a stone pot, the buns turn into crystal buns and you can even see the meat balls inside.
Lianyi asked Meng to taste it, and Meng ate one in one gulp. After a while, he said:
"It's not poisonous, it's edible."
Lian Yi was very upset and held his forehead with his hand and said:
"I asked about the taste. Of course I know it's not poisonous. I wouldn't let you eat it if it was poisonous."
He came over alone, pinched one and put it in his mouth. After eating it, he said:
"This transparent crust is very chewy, and the filling inside tastes delicious. It's suitable for females to eat."
Wen Nuan was the last one to try the food. She was very enthusiastic and ate three in one go, saying that they tasted very good.
Lu also tried one. He didn't expect that the pink fruit that could be found everywhere in the peacock tribe's territory could be eaten like this.
The next day, Lu helped to pick some more. This time, Lianyi boiled a stone pot of spring water and poured the milky powdered fruit liquid that had been dissolved in warm water beforehand into the boiling water. Then she stirred it constantly with a wooden stick until the water in the stone pot became viscous.
Then pour the crystal paste in the stone pot into another stone pot with cold spring water and let it cool slowly. During the cooling process, Lianyi pressed it with his hand from time to time to determine the cooling degree. After two hours, it was completely solidified.
Lianyi took out the solidified crystal noodles, cut them into strips, added chopped ginger, onion, garlic and a little chili powder, poured boiling oil on it, crushed a seasoning fruit, added a little salt, and made a portion of cold crystal noodles. She thought it tasted good, and Wen Nuan also liked it very much. The sour and spicy taste was very much to her liking.
The peacock orc on the side was even more amazed. This kind of powdery fruit is the easiest to preserve. As long as the shell of the powdery fruit is not broken, it can be stored for at least a whole year without changing. When it is opened again in the second year, the white powder inside will be a little yellow.
The peacocks usually cook this powdery fruit into a tasteless paste to fill their stomachs during the cold season when there is really no food to eat, so as to sustain themselves until the warm season when they can hunt.
Many cubs go through this, so that when they grow up, they hate this pink fruit very much and will never pick it as long as there is food to eat.
Such a food was eaten in various ways in the hands of the Ripple God. Lu felt that he didn't even need to meet the witch, he could be sure that this person was definitely the messenger of the Beast God mentioned by the witch.
By the time they arrived at the Peacock Tribe, the Greens had become very picky eaters because the food they ate was never the same throughout the journey. The meat was steamed, stir-fried, pan-fried, and deep-fried until it was cooked into a variety of dishes. Even the most traditional barbecue of the orcs tasted better when made by the Ripple God.
Lianyi met Dan, the chief of the peacock tribe, and the beautiful witch. After the two sides exchanged greetings, Lianyi explained her purpose and asked the witch to help check on Wen Nuan's body.
"The child was injured before, but after you helped her recover, she has been taking good care of herself during this period. The cub in her belly is very healthy now, and it should be born safely in the last month of the harvest season."
After hearing Wu's words, Wen Nuan immediately stepped forward and bowed respectfully to express her gratitude.
"I'll prescribe some new medicine for you. You should be fine after taking it for another three days."
After hearing this, Lianyi also thanked the witch.
Chief Dan couldn't wait to ask about the new food.
Lianyi didn't waste any words. She just talked about a few important things and let Wen Nuan teach them the rest.
Along the way, Wen Nuan watched Lian Yi cook these foods and learned a lot. After she recovered, she took the initiative to take over the cooking job. If she didn't understand something, she would ask Lian Yi for help. In the Peacock Tribe, she only needed to move her mouth, say the preparation steps, and then give appropriate guidance. It was a very easy task.
Wen Nuan immediately nodded in agreement, and accompanied by Wei, went to teach the female peacocks how to make new food.
As for the new way to eat pink fruit, Green has already told it orally to his females. After they try it themselves and succeed, they will spread it.
"Ripple Divine Envoy, what interests me most is this piece of colored linen. It is also the unique color of our peacock tribe. We like it very much. I wonder if you can tell us how you did it."
The beautiful witch asked with a smile.
"Of course, it's dyed with a kind of stone"
Lianyi briefly described the process of dyeing cloth, and finally said:
"This linen is a bit rough. If it can be made finer, the color will be better. And it can be dyed into cloth of different colors. As for the dye, it can be extracted from ore or from beautiful flowers. You need to try it yourself."
