Chapter 194
Yu Sui was moving around to help. He provided most of the water for washing potatoes, but his magic power was a little insufficient to supply enough.
The vermicelli appeared at the right time. Yu Sui was thinking that there were a lot of potatoes. Apart from the potatoes kept for seeds, the canteen could not consume so many of the remaining potatoes.
Yu Sui actually likes to eat fried potatoes in various forms, but there is not enough animal oil to teach this kind of cuisine to the cafeteria, and Yu Sui has not yet made soybean oil.
No matter how good potatoes taste, they cannot be eaten every meal, and they are easy to sprout. Even if the snow werewolves are not afraid of the toxicity, the taste of sprouted potatoes will change. It is better to make them into potato flour.
No matter how much food there is this year, most of it was traded with the Tauren. Yu Sui does not intend to waste it, especially soybeans. Since the tribe does not really need soybean oil, Yu Sui plans to wait until the planting is successful next year.
The tribe worked hard to make vermicelli for several days. Due to the cold weather, the vermicelli froze and would definitely not be eaten up in the spring, so every household hung a lot of vermicelli in their tents or houses and waited for them to dry.
These days, Lanlos was like a tail, always appearing inadvertently in his sight when Yu Sui was busy, and he thought he was hiding very well.
It seems like this greedy and gluttonous human has been attached to Yu Sui since he fed him once...
This gave Yu Sui a headache. He just couldn't bear to scold Lanluos because of the puppy-like look in his eyes. However, he knew Shuyu's attitude very well, so he could only drive Lanluos away again and again.
But even so, Shuyu still met Lanlos once, and the two of them started fighting.
It was really an eye-opener. It was the first time that Yu Sui saw Shuyu hate someone so much from the bottom of his heart. Countless thorns wrapped around Lanluos and threw him around.
Lanlos was no pushover either, as could be seen from his appetite. Yu Sui had thought that he had lost his memory and even forgotten his warrior skills. Unexpectedly, although he had no weapons, he had endless brute force. Not only did he tear apart the thorns, he also broke down a section of the wall of Yu Sui's house.
Yes, these two people had a fight at Yu Sui's house. It was because Lanluos always appeared when Yu Sui was cooking, and this time Shuyu ran into him.
Shuyu knew not to cause damage and held back his magic so as not to ruin Yu Sui's yard. But Lanluos didn't think so much. He gathered his energy in his hands, which emitted a red light. After tearing through the thorny vines, he couldn't hold back and smashed down a section of the wall with one punch.
The yard that he had built with great effort was destroyed like this. Yu Sui, who was watching the fight from the side, was so angry that he fell backwards. He rushed to Lanlos and slapped him hard on the back of the head several times while the other party looked guilty.
Naturally, the battle could not continue. Shuyu looked at Lanluos who was lowering his head to be beaten with an expression of disgust and surprise, and then looked at Yu Sui who was poking Lanluos' head and cursing in frustration, and his expression gradually became gloating.
In the end, Lanros squatted in front of the collapsed wall and silently repaired it. (PS: The cement was of course obtained with the help of the dwarves, and the wall repairing technique was also taught by a passing dwarf)
From then on, although Lanlos was beaten, he became even more determined and kept moving forward for food, always following the creator of gourmet food, Yu Sui, thinking that he would not attract attention.
Yu Sui really wanted to beg him to spare his house and yard, but could he explain it clearly to Lanluos, whose mind was empty and only remembered eating and fighting with Shuyu? Obviously not, so he had to cook and send a portion to Lanluos to avoid the two of them meeting as much as possible.
Alas, he is still a cub in this life, why do I feel like I have raised a grown-up son.
…
On this day, all the tribesmen gathered together and stood on a flat ground that was specially selected to be a little distance away from the tribe and was used for gunpowder experiments. Among the crowd of people of different heights, countless pairs of eyes were staring at Bombur and Barlow not far away.
"I heard they made weapons similar to fire magic."
"That's not very powerful for us orcs. We can only use it to fight elves."
"Not really. If there are other human mercenary groups, we can use them on them as well."
The tribesmen were whispering to each other in the back, and even the argali people joined in the discussion.
Not far behind them, Shuyu's forehead twitched silently.
Neither the snow wolves nor the dwarves regarded the argali people as outsiders. When Bombur and Barlow were developing gunpowder, they often made a big noise at the coal mine, and gradually everyone knew about it.
Among the tribesmen present, the dwarves were the quietest. Due to their height, they all stood at the front. Each of them had an excited expression and could hardly suppress their emotions.
Ever since the dwarves learned that Bombur and his companions had begun researching gunpowder, they had been looking forward to their success. They just didn't want to put pressure on the patriarch, otherwise they would have gone to the coal mine to help.
In fact, several dwarves had gone to the coal mine, but they were all driven back by Bombur, who had already figured out the leader.
The process of developing gunpowder was very dangerous, and the two of them would often be injured by explosions. Yu Sui had to have someone keep an eye on the two of them, otherwise he would always worry that something might happen to them.
So since they already had a clue, Bombur naturally wouldn't let anyone else get involved, causing the dwarves to look forward to the news of their success every day. After finally knowing that Bombur and Barlow had finally succeeded, everyone wanted to see the power of gunpowder, which led to the scene of demonstrating the power of gunpowder.
At the front of the crowd, Bombur and Barlow stood side by side, their faces solemn, but their eyes were filled with uncontrollable excitement.
Xu and Xiangcao stood next to them respectively, just in case. If danger occurred, these two people would pick up the two dwarves as quickly as possible and hide away.
Bombur and Barlow looked at each other and each took out a black bead the size of an egg from their arms. Yu Sui, who was standing behind them, noticed with his sharp eyes that the bead was covered with blue and purple lines.
The two of them slowly injected a small amount of energy into the bead, and the blue-purple lines gradually brightened. Before they were all lit up, they threw the bead out with force, accurately landing on a pile of abandoned bricks and stones that had been specially placed there (kindly provided by Yu Sui).
A huge explosion sounded, and bricks and stones were blown everywhere. The snow werewolves quickly picked up all the cubs who ran to the front to watch curiously, regardless of their race.
The bravest Snow Wolf cub did not stop even when he was picked up, and screamed in the adult's arms. Even the frightened dwarf children regained their curiosity and looked towards the place where the explosion happened with their round eyes.
Xu and Xiangcao each carried a dwarf and retreated to Yu Sui's side. If they had not been quick, the two dwarves would have been hit by the flying debris.
“We did it!”
Not caring that the collar on the back of his neck was still in Vanilla's hand, Barlow excitedly waved his fists and kicked his legs in cheers.
