Kumano and the people of the Creek Tribe dug several traps, but after several days, they did not encounter any dinosaurs that could be driven into the traps.
This life is simply unbearable!
On this day, the hunting team brought back a lot of edible plants and fruits as usual. Xiong Ye picked out some good-looking ones and brought them back to the cave for Zhou Ji to eat. Recently, people in the tribe were getting tired of eating fruits and no one wanted these things. Xiong He simply put them aside and let everyone take them and eat them.
Xiong Ye walked into the cave listlessly, and only became a little happier when he saw Zhou Ji: "Zhou Ji, I brought back some fruits, you can try them."
Zhou Ji took the fruit and ate it, then asked, "Didn't you hunt enough meat today?"
Kumano nodded dejectedly: "I haven't eaten meat for a long time!"
Zhou Ji: "..." Xiong Ye actually eats some meat every day, but he just eats less...
However, he has been practicing recently and needs a lot of energy, so it is normal to feel hungry.
"It would be nice if there were some dinosaurs!" Kumano said again.
Zhou Ji felt a little guilty seeing him like this.
If he hadn't made such a fuss, Xiong Ye wouldn't have been left without meat...
"Zhou Ji, I'm going to go out for a while and see if I can catch anything by the river." Xiong Ye said, and ran out of the cave quickly and went to the river.
Seeing him leave, Zhou Ji took out a handful of barley to induce growth, and then looked at the grains in his hand thoughtfully.
When Kumano went to the river, he passed by the area where the tribe used for planting and breeding.
Both the earthen eggs and barley can be grown in three months. The earthen eggs are now lush and green, and can be harvested in more than a month. The barley has also sprouted, and it will take more than two months to grow.
Kumano used to like eating free-range eggs very much, but now... he is no longer interested in them.
He wanted to eat meat, lots of meat.
He really can't stand the hard life after living a good life. Before he joined the hunting team, he didn't eat very well. At that time, he was very happy to be full, but now... he feels unhappy if he doesn't eat well!
Kumano felt that he was being a little inappropriate, but he couldn't help swallowing his saliva at the chubby little dinosaur kept in the fence.
I don't know when these dinosaurs will grow up...
Kumano felt a little uncomfortable for a while because he had no meat to eat, but after reaching the river, he perked up.
However, I don’t know if it’s because he fished too much, but he couldn’t catch any fish today!
In the end, Kumano stayed in the river for a long time. He had no choice but to dive to the bottom of the water and touch a few clams.
This kind of thing is edible, but people in the tribe don't like it because it is often very big and there is not much left after roasting it, and it is also difficult to chew.
Plus, this thing is hard to find... Kumano had brought a lot of food to Zhou Ji before, but never this kind of thing.
Carrying a few clams, Kumano returned to the tribe.
The tribe has already started cooking dinner, which is still a meal of local eggs, boiled vegetables and chopped meat.
When Kumano smelled the smell, he felt hungry but didn't want to eat.
He thought about it and decided to take the clams back to the cave.
"Zhou Ji, this is a river clam. Have you ever eaten it? Do you want to eat it?" Kumano asked.
Zhou Ji looked at the river clam and was quite interested.
He had eaten river clams before. Although they were not very delicious, at least they had no taste...
However, the clam is still alive.
Zhou Ji said: "Help me kill him."
"Just throw this river clam into the fire and roast it!" Kumano said. How do you kill this thing? Isn't it just a matter of throwing it into the fire, and after a while the shell opens up by itself, and after a while the meat inside is cooked?
"I don't like roasted food. Kill it and take out the meat." Zhou Ji said.
Kumano didn't expect that clams could be eaten like this. He was a little surprised, then took out a stone and smashed the clam's shell.
Zhou Ji: “…”
Although Kumano's method of killing clams was a bit simple and rough, it was really quick. In a short while, he took the meat of several clams out of the shells, washed them and placed them in the bowl next to him.
Zhou Ji took a look, then took out a stone and gave it to Zhi Xiongye: "Help me polish it to make it smoother."
The stone was round, a little higher around the edges and sunken in the middle, and the place Zhou Ji asked him to polish flat was the middle.
Xiong Ye used another stone to grind it, and asked as he was grinding: "Zhou Ji, what are you going to do with this?"
"Make a pot." Zhou Ji said.
"Isn't this pot too shallow?" Kumano was puzzled. Such a flat pot could not hold anything.
"A shallow pot has its advantages." Zhou Ji said and began to process the clam meat.
Cut the clam meat into small pieces, hit it a few times with a stone to make it easier to cook, then stir-fry it with a little oil, add water, and you can make clam soup.
In fact, fried river clams are also delicious, but it is best to add seasonings such as chili peppers. If you only add salt to stir-fry, the taste will definitely not be very good.
The clam soup smelled especially delicious, and Kumano, who was polishing the pot, became even hungrier...
Thankfully, this soup comes together quickly.
Zhou Ji ate the soup with some earth eggs, while Xiong Ye only drank the soup.
There was no meat in the clams at all. Xiong Ye gulped down a large bowl of them, but he just felt hungrier and greedier...
"It's time to eat!" Xiong He's voice, which was most popular among the people in the tribe, rang out.
Xiong Ye left Zhou Ji behind and ran out immediately.
Even though he has been eating grass every day recently, he still wants to eat it!
When Xiong Ye came back from dinner, Zhou Ji asked him to continue polishing the flat stone pot. As for himself, he used a stone bowl and a stone stick to beat some barley.
After the previous barley harvest, no one else in the tribe got any, but he took some... Of course, he had eaten all that barley long ago, and what he was dealing with now was the barley he had just produced.
"Zhou Ji, what are you doing?" Xiong Ye looked at Zhou Ji in confusion - Zhou Ji actually smashed the barley!
The barley is already very small, and now it has been crushed into powder... How can I eat it?
"I'm making barley flour and will make something delicious for you tomorrow." Zhou Ji said.
A few days ago, he was unhappy with Xiong Ye because of Yang Ying and gave Xiong Ye a little trouble. But seeing Xiong Ye busying around him these days, his anger had long gone. Seeing that Xiong Ye was uncomfortable eating the food cooked in the big pot in the tribe every day, he thought of some food that could be made.
For example, barley cakes.
Barley is not suitable for making bread, but it is very suitable for making flatbreads, and the flatbreads made are also delicious.
Of course, to make pancakes, you first need a frying pan and barley flour.
When Xiong Ye heard that Zhou Ji was going to make something delicious for him, he immediately became happy.
Recently, on the one hand, he couldn’t catch any prey, and on the other hand, Zhou Ji was not feeling well. Zhou Ji hadn’t cooked delicious food for a long time. Today’s clam soup was really rare!
As for tomorrow's barley cake... Kumano immediately looked forward to it.
The next day, Kumano still didn't catch any prey.
But he was in a good mood, and went to find Xiong He according to Zhou Ji's instructions, saying that he didn't want dinner but wanted a piece of bacon.
"I can give you five kilograms of meat for you and Zhou Ji." Xiong He took a piece of meat and gave it to Xiong Ye.
"Thank you, chief!" Kumano excitedly took the meat back to the cave, and then saw Zhou Ji adding water to the barley flour.
Barley looks yellow, but it turns white after being ground into powder. Now, after adding water and kneading it, it becomes a white ball.
Xiong Ye watched Zhou Ji fiddling with the white ball, and felt a little moved. He also wanted to pinch it...
Just as I was thinking this, I saw Zhou Ji let go of his hand and said, "You do it." He was going to start making the filling.
Zhou Ji could just eat the bread himself, but Xiong Ye would definitely want to eat the fillings... Zhou Ji took out the pickles that the salt-exchanging team had pickled after returning, chopped the bacon with a stone knife, and finally fried the pickles and bacon together.
This smoked meat is the meat of the arthropod. It does not smell like dinosaur meat, but only has the aroma of smoked meat. After being fried with pickles, it smells very fragrant.
Kumano was kneading the dough enthusiastically. When he smelled the scent, he immediately looked over with his eyes lighting up.
Zhou Ji ignored him, pulled a piece of dough over, wrapped some stuffing in it, flattened it and put it aside.
"Is this barley cake?" Kumano picked up the cake and looked at it curiously.
Zhou Ji said, "Yes." He actually had no experience in making pancakes, but Xiong Ye had been eating a hodgepodge of vegetables and eggs every day recently, so he would probably like the pancakes even if they were the most unpalatable.
Zhou Ji’s cooking skills were actually very poor, but when compared with the primitive people in the tribe, he became a great chef in a matter of minutes.
"This pancake is cute." Kumano turned it over and over, and after looking at it for a while, he took a bite and said, "It's delicious! The filling inside is especially delicious, but the barley outside is not very tasty."
Zhou Ji, who didn't notice and didn't stop him, said: "..."
The fillings have been cooked, so eating the pancake raw won't actually hurt. But even so, Zhou Ji still snatched the pancake from Xiong Ye's hand: "This pancake isn't ready yet!"
Kumano: “What was wrong?” It was done very well! Looks so cute!
Zhou Ji put the dough in the oily "pan": "It's not cooked yet."
Xiong Ye: “…”
Kumano never thought of cooking it.
No, it’s not boiling... Zhou Ji put a little oil in the pot and put the dough on it... Then, a fragrant smell came out!
It smells really, really good!
Kumano couldn't help swallowing his saliva, his eyes were wide open, staring at the pancake, unable to move his eyes away.
The pancake that Xiong Ye had bitten was quickly cooked. Zhou Ji gave it to him and said, "Eat it."
Kumano took a big bite, and then his eyes lit up.
This pancake is so delicious!
It was delicious when it was raw, and after it was cooked... the outer crust was a little crispy, and the filling inside tasted just right, the taste of the grain and the filling mixed together, it was simply delicious!
Kumano finished the meal in just a few bites and waited eagerly for the next one.
Zhou Ji ate every time he made one, and in the following time, he ate twenty in one go.
During this period, he also wanted to give Zhou Ji some food, but Zhou Ji didn't want it... so he made a pancake without any fillings and gave it to him to eat.
Making pancakes is quite troublesome, so Zhou Ji simply made a little more at a time. He gave twenty to Kumano and planned to save the remaining twenty for Kumano to eat tomorrow morning.
"Can I have two tonight?" Kumano asked.
"Of course, those with fillings are all yours." Zhou Ji said, Xiong Ye exercises every night, so eat whatever you want when you are hungry!
Zhou Ji thought that Kumano was just hungry, that's why he asked this. Unexpectedly, that night, when he was about to take Kumano to exercise, Kumano took out two pancakes and gave them to him.
"Sir, this is a pancake made by my partner. It's very delicious. Please try it." Kumano said.
Zhou Ji: “…No need.”
Kumano held the pancake in his mouth with some disappointment, then changed into a beast form and let Zhou Ji carry it.
If this person doesn't want to eat, he can only eat it by himself...
Xiong Ye was very good at sharing. On the second day, he ate twelve of the remaining eighteen bread loaves himself, and then he shared the remaining six loaves with the priest, Xiong Qi, Xiong Bai, Xiong Mao, Niu Er and others, giving each of them half a loaf of bread.
When Zhou Ji got up in the morning, he fried the pancakes again. When he distributed them to others, the pancakes were still hot, fragrant and delicious.
The priest broke a tooth while eating.
But he didn't care. Instead, he looked at Xiong Ye and said, "You little bastard, I taught you so many things, but you only gave me half of the food. Is that reasonable?"
The priest's words were already a bit leaky, and now they were even more leaky.
Xiong Ye: "Grandpa Priest..."
"Anything else?" the priest asked again.
"there is none left."
"Can you make some more?" the priest asked again. This bread is really delicious!
"There's no barley left, so we can't do it." Kumano said again. He noticed that Zhou Ji had run out of barley.
"Is this made of barley?" The priest looked at Kumano in surprise.
Kumano nodded, and then saw the priest quickly walk out: "I'm going to look after Barley!"
Kumano suddenly wanted to look after Da Mai as well!
It’s strange to say, there is actually very little meat in this pancake, but it is very satisfying to eat, especially satisfying!
Kumano now has enough energy to work!
However, such a good day only lasted one day.
That night, he had to eat the hodgepodge again.
At the beginning, except for Kumano and a few others, everyone accepted the hodgepodge well, but now... many people are starting to crave meat!
But Xiong He was worried that there might not be enough food in the future, so he was reluctant to take out the bacon and let everyone eat as much as they wanted.
Since they have not been able to eat large pieces of meat, almost all the young people in the tribe have started to crave meat.
Xiong Ye had to practice at night and hunt during the day. When he had some free time, Zhou Ji would drag him to learn math. He even dreamed of eating meat.
It was at this time that the people of the Giant Tiger Tribe finally got a lot of dinosaurs.
