Chapter 111 Secret Recipe
Wu Jiong was not too familiar with the situation of each family in the tribe, Qing Kuang knew more.
Hearing that they wanted to inquire about the news of Lin Yan tribe, Qing Kuang said: "Then you have to ask Wu Dang and other elders, they may know."
After thinking for a while, Qing Kuang said: "Forget it, I will go with you, I also want to know the news of Lin Yan tribe."
Jian Mo took the notebook and breathed a sigh of relief: "Then you ask, I will take notes and pass on these information."
Qing Kuang smiled at him: "Don't be nervous, if the tribe leader asks, the elders in the tribe will definitely tell you."
Jian Mo flattered: "They said they would tell you, but they may not ask as comprehensively as you."
Qing Kuang didn't know who was most familiar with the situation of Lin Yan tribe, so he simply invited the elders to the open space to chat.
Most people in the tribe had never heard of the Linyan tribe, but when they heard the news, they came out to watch the excitement. They
were called old people, but in fact they were just old. The beastmen and sub-beastmen would age rapidly at the end of their lives, and now they looked like middle-aged people. As
the conversation started, the people in the tribe recalled:
"The people of the Linyan tribe are different from us. They have a very long life span."
"I heard that they don't like to move much. When they are in beast form, they are just like stones. When they are in human form, they are better."
"What are their hobbies? They seem to like eating a kind of rhizome called ginseng. Why don't you pick some ginseng and send it over?"
"I have ginseng at home. It has been there for a long time. I will go and get it for you to see."
...
The person who said he had ginseng went home and got it for them to see.
When the ginseng was passed to Jian Mo, Jian Mo's eyes widened: "Isn't this a carrot?"
Ban Ming immediately replied: "What is a carrot?"
Jian Mo: "It's a kind of vegetable in our place. It tastes a bit sweet, but it's much bigger than this ginseng."
The ginseng looked about the size of a finger, earthy yellow, with wrinkled skin, and obviously not as much water as carrots.
Everyone nodded, not quite understanding.
Jian Mo sniffed the ginseng and smelled a strange smell: "What do ginseng leaves look like? Are there any near us?"
The man holding the ginseng said: "It's hard to describe. Anyway, it's thin and short, like a bunch of animal hair on the ground. You'll know it when you see it. There's no place near us, only on the grassland."
Jian Mo: "If you want to pick it, don't you have to go to the grassland to pick it?"
"Yeah, anyway, we don't have it here, and ginseng is not big, and people are usually too lazy to look for it."
Jian Mo thought about it and decided to go there.
The glue from the Linyan tribe is really useful, it's good to boil some for backup.
After Ban Ming and the others knew Jian Mo's plan, they stuck to him and said, "We want to go together, too."
Jian Mo reminded him, "Linyan Tribe is quite far from us."
Ban Ming straightened his chest and said, "It's okay. I can go to Xiongying Tribe and back in one day. At most, I can stay on the road for one night when I go to Linyan Tribe."
The other young people also thought, "We have been hunting with the tribe recently. We haven't had free time for a while. If we don't go out for a while, we won't have the energy to hunt."
Jian Mo looked at Wu Jiong. The affairs of the tribe still had to be arranged by Wu Jiong, the chief.
Wu Jiong said, "Then let's go together."
The children in the tribe were listening nearby, and their eyes lit up when they heard this.
They immediately surrounded Jian Mo, some hugged his legs, some rubbed his waist: "Brother Jian Mo--"
Jian Mo quickly said: "This is not my decision, you have to ask your fathers."
Jian Mo didn't want to take care of the cubs, but he was quite interested in Qing Kuang and invited him warmly: "Do you want to come with us?"
Qing Kuang: "If I go, it will be difficult to arrange the gathering of the tribe."
Jian Mo saw his excitement and said: "Then let's go to the grassland to gather? There should be a lot of Wild vegetables and stems for food, right? And mushrooms, insects, bird eggs, etc. It just so happens that we don't go to the grassland to collect them very often. If we go there suddenly, we may have a good harvest. "
This makes sense. Qing Kuang turned and asked others: "Then let's go to the grassland to try it?"
Everyone agreed: "It's good to go to a new place to have fun."
Everyone was tired of staying in the usual place. After discussing, most people in the tribe, whether orcs or sub-orcs, wanted to go to the grassland.
So Wu Jiong and his friends rearranged and finally took most of the tribe with them.
When the time comes, most people can go back to the tribe directly after hunting or collecting, and Jian Mo and his friends will go south to the Linyan tribe to ask.
After discussing the plan, they set off early in the morning.
There is no danger in going to the grassland this time, so everyone just takes the cubs out to see the world.
The Ambus grassland and the areas to the south were relatively far away, so everyone ran at full speed. When they reached their destination, the sun was already high.
Some beastmen went hunting, while others, beastmen and sub-beastmen, prepared to gather.
Jian Mo asked everyone to help find ginseng.
After Ban Ming agreed a few times, he searched for a while but couldn't find any, so he simply changed back to beast form and sniffed the spot.
The big cats sniffed around on the grassland but didn't smell much.
The other canine beastmen couldn't stand it, so they changed back to beast form and sniffed the spot, and soon found a bunch of ginseng.
What surprised Jian Mo was that the ones who found the most ginseng were not cats or dogs, but Jiujiu who was joining in the fun.
Jiujiu sniffed all the way and found the right one every time.
Every time it stopped, Jian Mo went over and pulled apart the grass, found a bunch of furry leaves underneath, dug it twice with a small hoe, and dug out the juicy grass ginseng.
Jian Mo couldn't help but pat Jiujiu's butt and praised him: "Jiujiu, you are good, you did a good job, I will give you a delicious meal when I go back." Jiujiu
raised his head and chest: "Jiujiu!"
Banjiu and the others envied: "When did Jiujiu's sense of smell become so sharp? The flying beast doesn't seem to be the kind of beast with a particularly sharp sense of smell."
Qingkuo said: "The flying beast's sense of smell is average, but Jiujiu is greedy, what food can escape its nose?"
Jiji didn't know they were hurting themselves, grinned and stuck out their tongue: "Jiji!"
Everyone searched together, and the ginseng in the baskets gradually accumulated into two large baskets.
It was getting dark, and everyone stopped.
Qingkuang: "We've found enough here, if not enough, we'll look for it tomorrow."
Jianmo: "It's almost there, there probably aren't many ginsengs in this grassland, we'll take it to Linyan Tribe to ask, if they want it, we'll look for it tomorrow to save energy."
Qingkuang: "I think they will want it, from what you said, they have a good temper." Jianmo
sighed: "I hope so, it's too tiring to look for ginseng."
Fresh ginseng is more juicy, Jianmo thought, while it's still fresh, just send it to Linyan Tribe.
If it's left for another day, it will look much worse and not so tempting.
No one had any objections.
So, early the next morning, Jian Mo and his team broke away from the main force and headed south directly, riding Jiujiu to Linyan Tribe.
Jiujiu flew very fast, and they arrived at Linyan Tribe not long after the sun came out.
The giant beast sleeping on the grass heard the noise, slowly stretched its head out and looked up at them.
Seeing that it was a familiar person, the giant beast of Linyan Tribe asked: "It's - you - again? - What's - the - matter?"
Jian Mo said: "We came here this time to exchange the formula of glue with you. It's the glue you gave us a few days ago."
The giant beast of Linyan Tribe: "Oh - just the - feces - of arthropods - and - skin - will do, - no - need to - change."
After saying that, the giant beast's head slowly drooped, and it was about to shrink into a ball again.
Jian Mo had never expected that the people of Linyan tribe would reveal the secret recipe so easily.
They had worked hard to find out the hobbies of the people of Linyan tribe, and had worked hard to dig out the ginseng, but in the end they had no use at all.
Seeing that the giant beast was about to shrink, Jian Mo hurriedly said, "Wait--"
At this time, a head popped out from the gap in the giant beast's armor: "Do you have anything else to do?"
Jian Mo looked closely and found that it was a sub-beastman, probably a sub-beastman from the Linyan tribe.
It turned out that their sub-beastman was lying on the orc!
The sub-beastman also spoke slowly, but much better than the giant beast, and it sounded much easier to communicate.
Jian Mo said quickly: "We brought ginseng here, and we are going to change the recipe. You can take the ginseng over and eat it."
The attitude of the sub-beast man softened a little: "No need, it's too troublesome to dig up the ginseng, you can take it back and eat it. Scorpion worms are easy to find, you can look under the rocks, you can probably find them."
After thinking for a while, the sub-beast man said: "If you want to boil glue, you can use any animal skin, about nine animal skins and a handful of insect feces, boil the two together, and it will be fine. When it is almost melted, you can take it out and pound it together until it becomes mud and then boil it. "
Jian Mo listened to him speaking slowly and said quickly: "Got it, thank you. I put the ginseng here for you."
Asian beastman: "No need, we eat grass piece by piece, if we can eat it, we eat it, if we can't, forget it."
With that, Asian beastman shrank into the gap of the giant beast's armor and ignored them.
Jian Mo and Wu Jiong looked at each other, both of them with confusion in their eyes.
They didn't want the ginseng that was delivered to their door, because they were too lazy to take it, and too lazy to eat it?
Jian Mo asked, "What should we do now? Do you know about arthropods?"
Wu Jiong: "I've seen it before, and I can recognize it when I see it."
Jian Mo: "Then let's go look for it?"
Jiujiu, who was standing behind them, jumped up: "Jiujiu!"
Gray-white boulders were scattered everywhere on this grassland.
Some of the boulders were curled up into a ball by the orcs of the Linyan tribe, and some were real stones.
After careful identification, they went to look on the natural boulders.
It didn't take long before they found the first arthropod in the gap between the boulders and the soil.
Arthropods are a bit like spiders, but they are much flatter than spiders, and their bodies are slender.
Feeling threatened, the arthropod's feet that were supporting the ground suddenly turned over, all facing upwards, with black poisonous stings on the tips of its feet, which looked scary.
Jian Mo was silent for a moment, then he took out the long chopsticks they used for eating from his backpack, stretched out the chopsticks, and picked up the arthropod directly: "Okay, we can clean up the excrement."
Jiujiu looked at Jian Mo from behind: "Jiujiu!"
The excrement of arthropods is small, black, and irregular particles.
There is not much excrement where an arthropod is. After collecting it, it is not even as big as a chestnut.
They collected it along the way.
Later, Jian Mo found that Jiujiu could smell the smell of arthropods keenly, so he let Jiujiu lead the way.
Jiujiu smelled slowly, and sometimes he could find arthropods on boulders, and more often he found them in abandoned caves in the Linyan tribe.
Wu Jiong: "It may not be an abandoned cave, but a cave that is temporarily unused. This cave should have been used by an animal last winter."
Jian Mo: "No way? With so many caves, can they use them all?"
Wu Jiong pointed to the wall of the earth cave: "It should be. Look, there are still fresh scratches here, and the earth wall is relatively dry. I remembered a piece of news. I heard that the people of Linyan tribe did not have a fixed habitat, but dug various caves throughout the grassland to live in. They rested wherever they ate. . "
Jian Mo thought for a while: "It seems that we also have it there, that kind of 'living near water and grass'?" "
Wu Jiong: "It should be, they are a little different from us." "
Jian Mo: "Then let's clamp the arthropods farther away, so that they won't be bitten by the arthropods when they return to the cave."
Jian Mo clamped the arthropods out, suspecting that the people of Linyan tribe were just too lazy to move, so if the animal skins were stained with insect feces, they would boil them in the same way, and finally accidentally came up with a special glue formula.
They collected insect feces on the grassland for a day.
After collecting, they did not go back to disturb the people of Linyan tribe, but rode Jiujiu directly back to the tribe.
Jian Mo followed the method taught by the Linyan tribe and boiled the insect feces and animal skins together. The glue he finally boiled out was indeed similar to the one boiled out by the Linyan tribe. It could be used to stick things together very firmly.
He replaced the animal skin with fish bladders, and boiled them. The fish bladder glue was better than the animal skin glue.
It took a lot of time and energy, especially the pounding of the fish bladders and insect feces. The two of them took turns pounding, but Jian Mo's hands were still swollen.
Jian Mo collected two large bags of fish bladder glue and animal skin glue, and said to Wu Jiong: "Shall we take this bag of glue to the Linyan tribe? Boiling glue is so troublesome, I think they are too lazy to do it, they should like the finished glue."
Wu Jiong: "Then let's make another trip."
Jian Mo: "When the time comes, collect some insect feces and bring them back."
Wu Jiong agreed: "Okay."
The two of them took Jiujiu on another trip.
This time, the people of Linyan tribe expressed their gratitude for the glue, and then accepted the glue they sent from afar.
The beastman who was pushed out to respond said: "We have to use glue to repair the cave every year, otherwise it will be uncomfortable to live. With the glue you sent, we don't have to endure the autumn."
Jian Mo smiled: "You're welcome, and I have to thank you for sharing this secret recipe with us."
The beastman grinned: "Nothing, it's not an important thing anyway."
Jian Mo: "It will be more useful if we keep it in our hands."
The beastman: "Then you can use it, it's good to be able to help you."
After a few words, the beastman showed a tired look on his face.
Jian Mo knew that he didn't want to talk anymore, so he quickly said, "Let's go back first. I'm a witch doctor. If you have any discomfort, you can come to the Riverside Tribe to find me. I will do my best to help."
The beastman nodded, "Okay. If I can help you."
The people in the Linyan tribe were in such a strange state that Jian Mo felt it was a sin to disturb them. After saying a few words, he quickly said goodbye and left.
After finding a bag of insect feces, Jian Mo and Wu Jiong returned to the Riverside Tribe.
It was already evening when they returned to the tribe, and most of the people in the tribe had returned.
The smell of cooking smoke filled the entire tribe, and many people were chatting in the open space.
The cubs were running around in the tribe, playing the game of eagle catching chickens - which Jian Mo taught them.
However, compared to the original version, this includes human-shaped cubs and beast-shaped cubs. The beast-shaped cubs run especially fast, and the intensity of the game is much higher.
When Jiujiu saw that the cubs were playing, his eyes lit up, and he turned around and grabbed the corner of Jian Mo's clothes: "Jiujiu!"
This means that he wants to play too.
We have already arrived at the tribe, and there is no need for Jiujiu to work hard.
Jian Mo took off the basket on him and patted his butt: "Okay, go play, be careful, don't hurt the cubs, and don't get hurt."
Jiujiu: "Jiu——"
Jiujiu ran with his two hind paws and ran into the pile of cubs in a few steps.
The cubs accepted Jiujiu well and enthusiastically let Jiujiu be the eagle.
The chubby Jiujiu ran and flew, playing with the cubs very happily.
Jian Mo looked at the scene in front of him, and felt a little relieved.
The people in the tribe also saw it and thought it was funny.
Ye Luo in the crowd looked at Jiujiu, then at Jian Mo, and finally called Jian Mo: "Jian Mo, I want to tell you something."
Jian Mo walked over with a smile: "What's wrong?"
Ye Luo: "Jiujiu seems to be a little bit abnormal these days, you guys should keep an eye on it."
Jian Mo was busy making glue these two days and really didn't pay much attention to Jiujiu's movements: "What's wrong with it?"
Ye Luo: "Its food seems to have suddenly become abundant."
