Crossing to Live in the Wilderness Plains

A Jing said that he wanted to take care of the little wolf cub. That night, he moved the little wolf cub's den to his pillow, watching the little wolf cub and fell asleep before he went to sleep.

After the snow stopped, it didn't fall again. There was no snow in the yard, and Chen Qi didn't plan to go outside the yard to get snow on the fence. Akko went back to the tribe early in the morning and moved the food that had been stored here. Although Azer still disagreed with them staying, he didn't stop him any more. Seeing Akko carrying things, he would also take turns to replace them with the other party. transport.

After the winter, the drying speed of the pomegranate becomes very slow. Usually it only takes a day to dry it. This time, the new home of Carlos and several people was dried for five years before they began to lay the roof.

While waiting for the new home to dry, Chen Qi took the remaining people to clean up the weeds in the newly enclosed yard. Because of the surprise of finding ginseng before, Chen Qi paid special attention to the situation in the grass this time. Of course, this kind of ginseng is not everywhere. After the whole yard was cleaned, nothing useful was found. Chen Qi couldn't help but feel a little frustrated.

The cleaned up weeds were neatly tied with ropes, and there were as many as a dozen bundles. Chen Qi rolled up his sleeves, carried the bundle of weeds back into the hall, and said to Carlo, "Go, I'll make something delicious for you. Yes." Turning grief and anger into appetite is what Chen Qi often does. Of course, in the past, as long as you went downstairs and turned left, there was an entire food street that could solve the problem, but now you can only do it yourself.

In order to maintain the temperature of the fire pit, the newly built stove in the house was always on fire, and bone soup was being boiled on it. There were more than a dozen boxes of pig dragon bones alone, which was enough for Chen Qi to cook for a long time.

Chen Qi moved the pottery plate with the soup aside, replaced it with a new one, poured half a pan of water into it, went to the storage room to get a few potatoes, washed them, put them in the pottery plate and boiled them. Cover the pot. The lid of the pot is cut directly from a sturdy tree trunk. Chen Qi not only made the lid of the pot with the trunk, but also made a chopping board and a wooden bowl. The wooden bowl needs to be polished, which takes a long time and patience. Until now, Chen Qi has only Made two. Probably because of a lot of thought, these two wooden bowls are also the most exquisite of all the wooden products in the house.

Taking advantage of the time to cook the potatoes, Chen Qi asked Carlo to take a large piece of pork belly from outside to thaw it. After thawing, he asked Carlo to cut into two portions, one diced and the other pounded into minced meat for use. Chen Qize took out the shriveled onion and garlic in the storage room, patted a piece of wild ginger, melted a spoonful of dolphin oil and mixed it together.

A Jing's wound was not healed yet, so Chen Qi didn't dare to give him hard food, so he planned to make a mashed potato. The way to make mashed potatoes is very simple. First boil the potatoes, let them cool and peel them. Chen Qi found a ceramic bowl, put a peeled potato in it, and mashed it with a spoon. The firewood in the stove had been taken out by Chen Qi, and he instructed Carlo to use the weeds collected in the yard to directly burn the fire. Chen Qi put a little dolphin oil in the pottery plate that was used as a pot. After the oil was hot, put the Put the prepared ginger, onion, and garlic in it and stir-fry for a while, then put the mashed potatoes in and stir-fry.

Chen Qi fried a bowl of mashed potatoes with only **** and spring onions, and then another bowl of mashed potatoes with minced meat. After frying, he handed a spoon to Carlo, who was already greedy. Carlo couldn't wait to scoop up a spoonful of mashed potatoes with **** and green onion. It smells good, but tastes a little weird.

After Carlo swallowed the food in his mouth, he scooped another spoonful of mashed potatoes with minced meat. Perhaps it was more meaty, and Carlo's eyes gleamed as soon as the food entered his mouth, "Chen Qi, I like this. " Carlo said as he scooped up another large spoon and stuffed it into his mouth.

Chen Qi took a small half bowl of mashed potatoes with **** and spring onion in a wooden bowl and handed it to A Jing on the fire pit. A Jing took it after hesitating, looked at Chen Qi, Chen Qi smiled and rubbed his little head, "Try it. Like it or not."

A Jing nodded obediently, and took the spoonfuls and ate them quietly. There was no expression on A Jing's face, and Chen Qi couldn't tell whether he liked it or not. After Ajing ate all the mashed potatoes in the bowl, Chen Qi took the empty bowl handed over and asked, "How is it? Is it delicious?"

Ah Jing nodded, "Delicious."

Chen Qi gave him another half bowl of mashed potatoes with minced meat, and A Jing still quietly finished eating it bit by bit.

Chen Qi also made mashed potatoes with the remaining boiled potatoes, there are four bowls, and then took out a few potatoes from the storage room, and this time took a few more sweet potatoes, Peel the skin when it's all cooked. The beasts all like meat. This time, Chen Qi mixed the diced meat and minced meat into the mashed potatoes and sweet potatoes, and then kneaded the mashed potatoes into a cake shape. He added oil to the pottery plate and heated the potatoes. Put the cake in and fry until golden on both sides. The hash browns were fried to a crisp, and Carlo preferred the texture of hash browns to mashed potatoes.

Ah Zhang came here on the morning of the day when the pectin from the new house dried up. This time, Ah Li, whom he hadn't seen for a long time, came with him. The females of the tribe who helped build the house didn't come with him.

After A-Chang put A-Li down, he did not immediately rush to build a roof for his new home. Instead, he called Chen Qi and several people over and sat by the fire in the hall of Chen Qi's house. A-Chang sat upright, his face The expression on his face was a serious one that Chen Qi had never seen before. He looked directly at Chen Qi and said word by word, "Chen Qi, I hope you can be the patriarch of the Yanshan tribe."

After listening to Ah Zhang's words, not only Chen Qi was surprised, but even A Ze and Carlo who were sitting beside them looked at Ah Chang with shocked expressions. Only Ah Ke and Ah Li still had their original expressions. It seemed that they had already said what Ah Chang said. Just know the same.

"Uncle A Zhang, why do you want Chen Qi to be our patriarch?" It was Carlo who asked the question first.

This is also Chen Qi's question. The number of times he has gone to the Yanshan tribe can be counted in one palm. Ah Zhang's acting patriarch has done a good job, why did he suddenly want to do it himself?

"I have discussed this matter with the rest of the tribe." A Zhang looked around the crowd and continued, "Although I don't know which tribe Chen Qi came from, you know a lot of things. This is something that all of us have seen. The Yanshan tribe can no longer be regarded as the Yanshan tribe, it is just a settlement for those of us who are unwilling to leave. You have also seen that the defense ability of the tribe is too weak. The attack of the two hyena dragons almost destroyed half of the tribe. A Jing's child was seriously injured. At that time, I actually thought he would not survive, so I just asked A Ke to bring him in the hope of giving it a try. Coming here, I didn't expect that Chen Qi, you really saved A Jing." When A Zhang said this, the end of his eyes was a little red, and he bowed deeply towards Chen Qi.

Hearing A Zhang mentioning his own, A Jing glanced over here, stroking the little wolf cub's belly also slowed down, and pricked up his ears to listen to the words of the few people by the fire.

"From making traps, refining salt stones, drilling wood for fire, building houses, and the ice fence you suggested, these are things we've never thought about and done before. People who have no hunting ability have hunted food, and people who are unable to fight can stay in a safe place, so I hope that the tribe can be moved here, and I hope that you, Chen Qi, can be the new patriarch of our tribe."

Chen Qi turned his head to look at A Ze, and then turned his gaze back to A Zhang. He did not respond to A Zhang's words, but asked, "Haven't the people in the tribe already gone to the Lion and Wolf tribe?"

A Zhang shook his head and explained: "They just went to the Lion and Wolf tribe to stay this winter. Tribal migration is not that simple. The rest of the tribe are old people or those who have been injured and lost the ability to transform into beasts. Female, after all, this is a wilderness, and it is very difficult for them to survive the winter without enough houses to keep them warm. There is a place for celibate elderly females in the Lion and Wolf tribe, and there are people from the Yanshan tribe to take care of them. Their patriarchs have negotiated and will bring them back after winter."

Chen Qi was a little tangled. Before, A Ze just moved out because he didn't want to live in the tribe, but now A Zhang wants to move the tribe over, Chen Qi hesitated and said, "You need to ask A Ze for permission to move the tribe. , This is Azer's home."

A Zhang turned his head to look at A Ze, this is the child he has grown up with since he was a child, and A Zhang naturally knew his temperament. Zhang hoped that he and A Li would move over and let A Ze get used to it for a while. After all, it was just him and A Li, A Ze would not reject it.

A Ze shook Chen Qi's hand, "Uncle A Zhang wants to move the tribe over, so let's move, but this is a wilderness after all, and the defense ability is not good. If you encounter a hyena dragon, you may easily be attacked. The Hyena Dragon has attacked."

A-Zhang was a little surprised. He had already spent a winter on how to persuade A-Ze to accept the idea of ​​​​relocating the tribe, but A-ZE agreed without thinking.

"Aze, have you really made up your mind? Although we plan to relocate the tribe, I hope you don't force yourself." Ali interjected a little worriedly, and quickly explained, "The people from the Yanshan tribe who are staying now. It won't exclude you just because you don't have stretch marks, and it won't blame you if something happened to the tribe."

A Ze interrupted Ali's speech: "Uncle Ali, I understand everything you said. I have been going back to the tribe a lot these days, so it's not that I exclude living with the people in the tribe." Ze turned to look at Chen Qi, "I like the tribe very much, and I also like the people in the tribe. If the tribe wants to move here, I will not object."

Hearing A Ze's answer, A Zhang breathed a sigh of relief, "Then Chen Qi, are you willing to be the patriarch of our tribe?"

Chen Qi shook his head, "No, I'm not suitable to be the patriarch." A Zhang was a little disappointed, and Chen Qi continued: "I think it is the most suitable for you to continue to be the patriarch of the tribe, A Zhang. If you have any questions in the future, you need my help, I will do my best to help if I can.”

A-Zhang wanted to say something else, but when he saw A-ke winking at him and shaking his head, A-Zhang's words of persuasion were swallowed.

So the issue of tribal migration after the winter ended was settled.

When he was cleaning the dishes after breakfast, Chen Qi came to the washroom, and Aze was squeezing the fig juice into the oil-stained pottery plate, "Aze, you just said that you don't mind the fact that the tribe migrated here. It's your sincerity. talk?"

Aze stopped what he was doing, looked up and saw that Chen Qi had crouched beside him, and smiled, "I encountered some unhappy things in the tribe before, and I must have lied to you if I said I didn't mind."

"Then why did you agree to A-Chang's request? A-Chang wants my help. I can help them plan the original Yanshan tribe's place, and the tribe's defense can be improved as well."

Azer shook his head, "I don't hate people from the tribe. I didn't live in the tribe before, and I didn't want Carlo to stick to me all the time. Besides." Azer paused, and came close to Chen Qi's ear, the warm breath made Chen Qi Feeling itchy on the tip of your ears, "Chen Qi, you always smile very nicely when there are many people."
