Chapter 81 Scallion Head
Perhaps they heard the chirping sound, and another cub ran over happily from behind.
Once they arrived at the secret forest, they saw Wu Jiong and Jian Mo waiting in the forest. They were immediately frightened and turned around to try to escape.
However, none of them could escape, and they were all caught by Wu Jiong by the scruff of the neck.
Jian Mo looked at the cubs lined up in a row, ready to be scolded, and didn't know what to say.
After calming down, Jian Mo asked the cubs: "Who has eaten Jiujiu's meal?"
The cubs looked at each other, and then secretly looked at Wu Jiong, and didn't dare to speak.
Seeing them like this, Jian Mo turned around and pushed Wu Jiong: "You go back first, I'll talk to them."
Wu Jiong nodded, turned around and left.
After Wu Jiong left, the cubs breathed a sigh of relief and whispered:
"We didn't eat."
"Jiujiu has never brought food before."
"We just taught it to bring the food bowl yesterday afternoon."
"Brother Jian Mo, we just wanted to try it, we didn't want to steal Jiujiu's food."
Is this a question of stealing Jiujiu's food?
Jian Mo was almost laughing with anger, and turned to look at Jiujiu: "Jiujiu, you really didn't bring food to the little guys?"
Jiujiu's ears were pressed against his scalp, forming airplane ears, and his eyes looked down, not daring to look at Jian Mo at all: "嘤."
That means there really was no food.
Jian Mo breathed a sigh of relief and said sternly: "Jiujiu's food is unhygienic, you are not allowed to eat it! If you want to eat, come to us, come to our house to eat, do you understand?"
The cubs secretly raised their eyes, and seeing that Jian Mo was not angry, they nodded obediently.
Seeing how scared they were, Jian Mo softened his tone: "You can play with Jiujiu, but don't share food with Jiujiu, and don't let Jiujiu carry you to fly."
The cubs had never thought of letting Jiujiu carry themselves to fly before, but now Jian Mo's words seemed to inspire them. Their eyes lit up and they looked at Jiujiu secretly.
A vein on Jian Mo's forehead jumped: "If you dare to let Jiujiu carry yourself to fly, I will complain."
Seeing that Jian Mo was really angry, the cubs quickly folded their paws and squatted down obediently, saying that they would not do that.
Jian Mo did not believe them and decided to educate Jiujiu later. He must make the seriousness of the matter clear to prevent these little guys from making trouble.
Jian Mo educated the cubs and let them go back.
After letting the cubs leave, Jian Mo turned around and educated Jiujiu. There is
no need to be so polite when educating your own beast. Jian Mo's output was so strong that Jiujiu was completely depressed.
After the training, Jian Mo said that Jiujiu would have to deduct two days' rations. During these two days, Jiujiu could only eat grass and tubers, and forget about delicious food. After
the education, Jian Mo brought Jiujiu's meal and took the depressed Jiujiu back home.
Wu Jiong was waiting outside the woods. When he saw Jian Mo coming out, he looked at Jiujiu again, and a smile appeared in his eyes.
Jiujiu's meal was finally given to it, but it would not be treated so well in the next two days.
This guy also knew that Jian Mo was angry, so he dared not show his anger, and even stopped saying "Jiu", focusing on being a low-key beast.
In addition to educating the little guys, Jian Mo also talked to the parents and reminded them to pay attention to the food problem of the little guys.
The weather is getting hotter and hotter, so you can't eat anything randomly, as it can easily cause gastroenteritis.
The parents said they had received the advice, and they often took their children to educate them after returning home.
Jian Mo thought the children would be afraid of him for a while, but he didn't expect that in the afternoon, when he came back from collecting and was chatting with everyone in the open space, the children slowly came over and rubbed against his feet.
The spotted chick even hooked his leg with its long tail, and its furry little face was full of hesitation.
Jian Mo knew at a glance that they had something to say, and after holding back for a while, he finally couldn't help it and picked up Banju and put him on his lap, rubbing his belly: "Do you have something to say to me?"
Banju asked in a low voice: "Brother Jian Mo, can we still go hunting in your vegetable garden? I asked my dad, and he said he wanted to ask you."
So that was the matter. Jian Mo looked at Qingkuan on the side and saw that Qingkuan had a smile on his face and didn't seem to have any opinion.
Jian Mo touched Banju's head and said, "Just be careful. You can't eat prey raw."
Banju was delighted and said, "We know. We won't eat them. Brother Jian Mo, we saw a lot of birds in your vegetable garden this afternoon."
Jian Mo was overwhelmed when he heard that there were birds in the field again. "Thank you for catching them. If you catch them, I'll make them into hand-shredded meat for you to eat."
The cubs who were listening nearby couldn't help but cheer, "Thank you, Brother Jian Mo!"
Jian Mo also smiled, "It's up to you."
In order to make it easier for the cubs to go to the vegetable garden, Jian Mo took Wu Jiong to transport a bunch of big stones, piled them in the river, and built a simple stone bridge.
The cubs can cross the river directly on the stones without getting their fur wet.
Fearing that the cubs were unreliable, Jian Mo had Wu Jiong talk to the beastmen on patrol, asking them to keep an eye on the cubs on the other side of the river.
Wu Jiong told Jian Mo not to worry, as they had cleared the animals outside the tribe again, and no large animals would dare to come over.
Jian Mo was more worried, and told Jiujiu to help watch the cubs and give timely warnings if anything happened.
Jiujiu, who had just been deprived of food, didn't know if he understood what was said, but he was happy to be able to play with the cubs again.
Jian Mo thought that although Jiujiu was not a powerful beast, it was big in size and should be quite intimidating to ordinary animals, so he left it alone.
With the help of the cubs, Jian Mo's vegetable garden, the tribe's vegetable garden, and the nearby vegetable gardens are much safer, and no animals dare to come and mess with them.
Although the cubs' claws are not yet hard, they are still beasts. It is no problem for them to catch small prey or birds.
Jian Mo once saw a blind bird trying to come down to harm their vegetable garden, but it was chased by the cubs until its feathers fell off.
Jian Mo also kept his promise and made a big pot of hand-shredded meat for the cubs.
The hand-shredded meat is made with garlic powder and pepper, which is fragrant and spicy, very chewy, and deeply loved by the cubs.
The kids were also very sweet-talkers, and they kept chattering around Jian Mo:
"Brother Jian Mo, your cooking is so delicious! This smells so good!"
"Brother Jian Mo, we're going to guard the vegetable garden tomorrow, can you make some shredded meat jerky for us again?"
"I like this shredded meat jerky so much, and I like you too!"
Jian Mo was surrounded by a bunch of kids praising him, and he couldn't stop smiling. He said that if the kids caught prey in the field next time, he would make some shredded meat jerky for them.
Not tomorrow, the shredded meat jerky is too hard, and it will take some time before they can eat it.
The kids puffed up their chests and said they would guard the vegetable garden well.
After solving the problem of the vegetable garden, Jian Mo continued to go out with the people of the tribe to collect.
There is indeed a lot of food in spring. If they can't eat all the food they pick, they will dry it into various dried vegetables and save them for when food is scarce.
Among the dried vegetables that Jian Mo dried, there are several that taste pretty good. Occasionally, he takes them out to make braised pork, which tastes quite like preserved vegetable braised pork.
On this day, Jian Mo went out with the people in the tribe and came back in the evening. As
soon as he returned to the tribe, he heard someone calling him. He looked up and saw several giant red beasts that looked like foxes and weasels and had three big tails running towards him.
He was startled and it took him a while to react before he realized that it was the people from the Hongqi tribe who were coming.
"Doctor Jian Mo!" The giant beast ran to Jian Mo, and the beastman on top climbed down and asked Jian Mo with sparkling eyes, "Didn't you say before that you wanted to find scallions? Take a look and see if this is the scallion you want?"
As he said that, the beastman pulled the basket on his back to show Jian Mo: "This is it."
Jian Mo took a look and found that it was full of round root balls that looked like garlic.
He grabbed a handful and put it under his nose to smell it. Sure enough, he smelled the slightly pungent sweet and spicy smell of scallions.
He was refreshed: "It seems so, let me see."
The beastman from the Hongyi tribe: "You can look at it."
Jian Mo picked up one of the root balls and peeled it off gently.
There were layers of it inside, a bit like onions, and the onion smell was more obvious.
He put it under his nose and sniffed it. Apart from the smell of green onions, there was basically no other smell.
"It seems to be green onions." Jian Mo asked, "Is it poisonous? Let me taste it."
The Asian beastman of the Hongluo tribe said, "It's not poisonous. We ate it before bringing it back. It's just not delicious and it irritates the throat."
Jian Mo smiled and said, "If you think it's spicy, it will be much better if you cook it into a dish."
"Forget it, it tastes a bit strange." The people of the Hongluo tribe were not very interested in eating green onions. They just urged Jian Mo, "Doctor Jian Mo, try it quickly."
Jian Mo peeled off the skin in front of them, then gently broke off a piece and put it in his mouth.
The raw green onion was indeed pungent and spicy, and the taste was very strong. Jian Mo couldn't swallow it, so he quickly went to the side to spit it out, and then rinsed his mouth with water.
The people from the Hongluo tribe chased after him and asked nervously, "Isn't this what you want?"
Jian Mo: "No, no, no, this is what I want, but it can't be eaten raw."
The people from the Hongluo tribe cheered, "That's great!"
Jian Mo: "Thank you."
The people from the Hongluo tribe: "You're welcome. Then Doctor Jian Mo, this basket of green onions is for you. As for the knife you mentioned--"
Jian Mo said readily, "Come home with me and I'll give you the knife."
The people from the Hongluo tribe were even happier and followed him home.
On the way, Jian Mo asked, "Why did you only pick the scallions and not the leaves?"
The people of the Hongqi tribe answered in unison:
"We originally had leaves, but the road from the Sharp Tooth Tribe was too far, and the leaves had turned yellow and dried up, and some of them had rotted. We simply picked the stems." "
The Sharp Tooth Tribe is next door to us, and it takes several days to get from them to our tribe. It's too far to get to your tribe."
"It doesn't look good with leaves, so we'll just take the stems."
Jian Mo didn't expect that the origin of this kind of green onion was so far away, and said sincerely: "Thank you for your hard work."
The people of the Hongqi tribe said very straightforwardly: "It's okay, as long as we can exchange knives, everything is worth it."
Jian Mo: "Yes, I will exchange two knives for you."
This statement caused the people of the Hongqi tribe to cheer again: "Great! Doctor Jian Mo, you are really a good person!"
Jian Mo took them back and wanted to make tea to entertain them.
They refused one after another, saying that they had to hurry back to the tribe and leave as soon as possible.
Jian Mo went upstairs and took out two treasured knives from the box and handed them to them. It was up to them to divide them among themselves.
Before they left, Jian Mo had an idea and asked, "Can you help me find some beans and peppers?"
The people of the Hongqi tribe were very interested: "What is this?"
Jian Mo took out a wooden board and drew for them with charcoal: "Pepper is a plant with very spicy fruits. It may be round or long, and the colors are black, yellow, red, and green. Once you find it, you will not make a mistake. It is so spicy that whether it sticks to your hands or mouth, it can make your skin red and swollen."
After carefully looking at the peppers drawn by Jian Mo, everyone nodded.
Jian Mo drew beans for them again: "Beans may be a kind of plant that grows in bean pods. They come in various shapes, some are round and some are flat. They taste floury and have a smooth skin. When peeled, they may look like this."
Jian Mo carefully explained the characteristics of beans and peppers, and said that if they really couldn't find them, they could find plants with related characteristics.
The people of Hongluo tribe said they understood and said they would help him find out after they returned, and exchange metal utensils with him when they found them.
Jian Mo told them to look for them, as he had enough metal utensils.
The people of Hongluo tribe quickly left with two metal knives.
Jian Mo was at home, humming a song as he took out a handful of green onions, planning to make a green onion pancake in the evening and bake some beast meat with green onions.
There wasn't much noodles left at home, but he finally found green onions, so he had to have a good meal.
Not to mention baked beast meat, there is always beast meat every night. Today I cut a relatively fatter piece and baked it with green onions. It must taste great.
Wu Jiong came back soon and asked as soon as he entered the kitchen: "Did the people from the Hongqi tribe send us some green onions?"
Jian Mo: "They are the scallion heads. They said they found them in the Lizhi tribe. That tribe is too far away from us. When they were transported to us, the scallion leaves had turned yellow and dried up, leaving only the scallion heads."
Wu Jiong nodded: "Are they the scallions you want?"
Jian Mo was even happier: "I guess so. What exactly are they?" No? You will know after trying it tonight. I plan to make a scallion pancake and scallion-baked beast meat, and steam a fish. What do you want to eat? I will add two more dishes, so that you will not be left with nothing to eat later because you are not used to the taste of scallions. "
Wu Jiong: "It's okay, I'm not picky."
Jian Mo: "Then you just wait, the dishes tonight will definitely be delicious!"
Jian Mo is not very good at making pasta, but he probably can.
Anyway, they have come to the beastman tribe, and it is impossible for anyone to jump out and accuse him of making pasta that is not authentic.
Humming a song, Jian Mo continued to work.
He first baked the scallion pancake, and then baked the beast meat in a clay pot.
Both sides exuded a rich aroma. The scallions, which were originally a bit spicy and pungent, were fried in oil and transformed into a charming scallion fragrance, and even a little sweet.
Jiujiu came over at some point, with its two front paws hanging on the kitchen door, drooling as it watched them cook.
The scallion pancakes were ready, but Jian Mo didn't have time to cook anything else. He took a scallion pancake, tore it in half, gave half to Wu Jiong, and took the other half for himself.
Jiujiu was so anxious that he kept chirping outside, and even made whimpering sounds from his nose.
Jian Mo saw that it was about to speak, so he smiled and took a slightly cooled scallion pancake and gave it to it.
After Jiujiu got the scallion pancake, it didn't go back to the nest, but sat in the yard, holding the scallion pancake with its two front paws and slowly chewing it.
Jian Mo asked Wu Jiong: "How is it?"
Wu Jiong stared at the scallion pancake: "It tastes completely different from raw scallions."
Jian Mo said with satisfaction: "That's right, cooked scallions are particularly fragrant. If you use them to make scallion noodles, they are also delicious."
After eating the scallion pancake, Jian Mo continued to cook.
Scallion baked meat is also Jian Mo's favorite. When it was served, this baked meat basically restored 80% of the taste of baked pork belly on Earth. The remaining 20% is probably because his sauce is wrong. It
's too fragrant.
This kind of meat that is sizzling with oil and has the aroma of scallions is simply the best delicacy.
Jian Mo asked Wu Jiong: "What do you think?"
Wu Jiong: "It's delicious, not the same kind of delicious as other delicious meat."
Jian Mo understood: "Each has its own taste?"
Wu Jiong nodded: "Yes, your steamed fish, sausages, and hand-shredded meat are all delicious."
Jian Mo: "That's right, we have more delicious food where we are, especially during festivals, there are simply too many delicious foods to eat."
Wu Jiong: "What do you mean by festivals?"
Jian Mo thought for a moment: "Probably some days used for celebration?"
Jian Mo gave the examples of the Dragon Boat Festival, Mid-Autumn Festival and Spring Festival.
Wu Jiong: "If that's the case, then we have the Beast Festival in spring, the Shade Festival in summer, and the Hunting Fair in autumn."
Jian Mo didn't know what the Beast Festival and the Shade Festival were, but he objected to the Hunting Fair: "The Hunting Fair is an activity, not a festival."
Wu Jiong: "The Hunting Fair also prepares delicious food and celebrates."
Jian Mo: "I still think it doesn't count. Wait, the Beast Festival and the Shade Festival are also counted. What is the Beast Festival? Has it already been celebrated? "
Wu Jiong: "It is a day when single beastmen and sub-beastmen gather together to get to know each other and have fun, mainly to find a partner. This festival has not come yet, we have to wait until the second full moon."
Wu Jiong explained, and Jian Mo realized that at the beginning of spring, everyone was busy hunting and gathering to fill their stomachs after a winter of hunger and nourish their bodies.
Only on the second full moon day will everyone gather together to celebrate, and it will also help single beastmen and sub-beastmen get to know each other.
Wu Jiong said calmly that in spring, everyone would especially want to find a partner, so there was this festival.
Jian Mo understood, spring is the breeding season.
Because they talked about this topic during dinner, after dinner, the two of them packed their clothes and prepared to go out for a shower.
Jian Mo specially brought tooth powder made with charcoal powder, and the two of them brushed their teeth thoroughly.
I have to say that the Orc Continent is vast and sparsely populated, and it is quite exciting to go outside.
Jian Mo lay on a big rock, looking at the moon and starry sky above his head, which was not yet full, and expressed satisfaction with this occasional night exercise.
Spring is indeed the season of revival of all things.
Jian Mo thought lazily.
