Crossing to Live in the Wilderness Plains

Chen Qi cut a bell pepper into pieces, added a little green onion and garlic, mixed with the diced meat, then added salt to adjust the taste, and fry it briefly on a clay pot. This is the first filling. Because it is not clear what kind of fillings make the stuffed large intestine more delicious, Chen Qi plans to try several more schemes.

The second filling, Chen Qi, asked Carlo to mash the diced meat into minced meat, mix it with chopped cabbage, add a little rice berries and stir fry it before serving it out. Potatoes were also added to the third portion. Chen Qi tried all the stuffing methods he could think of, and even made him make five or six different stuffings, but the main raw material of all the stuffings was meat. There are freshly hunted porpoise dragon meat, as well as yesterday's antelope dragon meat, as well as various cured meats marinated before winter.

After the stuffing is finished, it is time to start the brewing process. Others can only start the brewing process. When the brewing starts, one person takes a piece of large intestine. They make it according to their own demonstration.

Chen Qi first tied one end of the large intestine with a root wire, and then began to pour the stuffing into the large intestine, about 70-80%, and then tied the other end of the large intestine, so that the stuffed large intestine was ready. . The production process is simple and convenient, without any technical content, Chen Qi couldn't help sighing when he saw the large intestine that had been brewed.

Chen Qi cooked it on the stove beside the kang, and put the large intestine into the pot. The large intestine is relatively large. Chen Qi was afraid that it would not be too full to cook, so he only put two in one pot. Add water to cover the large intestine. Put the lid on and start to boil. After the water is dry, fry the swollen large intestine a little until the surface is golden brown.

Wash the sword-horn knife, scald it slightly in boiling water to sterilize it, then cut the root line that binds the large intestine, cut the round golden large intestine into pieces, and place them neatly in a clay bowl. The root large intestine is filled with two large pottery bowls.

Chen Qi deliberately made the stuffing salty because he had to cook it with water, so I tried a piece now, and it tasted just right.

"How is it? Is it delicious?" Carlo couldn't help it when he smelled the aroma, but when he thought that the material was the large intestine of a pig dragon, his heart that was tempted by the aroma was still suppressed, and when he saw Chen Qi eating After a piece, he asked.

Chen Qi smiled at him, but did not answer him, but handed another pottery bowl filled with sliced ​​large intestines to Ali, and he took a small bowl from the pottery bowl in front of him and handed it to Ali. A Jing, who had already distributed beans to the side, came over and looked at him curiously.

A Jing was so hungry before that he even ate the bark, and he didn't have any resistance to the large intestine of the dragon. He happily took the pottery bowl that Chen Qi handed over, and took a piece of it with chopsticks and stuffed it into the mouth. This is the stuffing of minced cabbage with rice berries. After several rounds of cleaning, the large intestine has no taste. There is still a smell of rice when you bite into it, and you will not feel tired after adding cabbage.

After chewing a few times, A Jing swallowed the food in his mouth. A rare smile appeared on his expressionless face, and he picked up a piece with chopsticks and started eating.

Chen Qi flicked the other party's forehead and scolded with a smile: "What are you doing in such a hurry to eat? No one is rushing to eat with you. Chewing a few more times before swallowing will help digestion."

A Jing paused when he swallowed the food, then nodded. Sure enough, he chewed the food carefully before swallowing the food in his mouth. After finishing, he said to Chen Qi, "It's delicious."

"Just finished dinner, even if it's delicious, don't eat too much, don't make your stomach hurt."

A Jing nodded obediently and agreed, intending to finish the stuffed large intestines that Chen Qi had given him. There is a small half bowl, and if you eat it slowly, you can eat it for a long time. Ah Jing thought about it in his heart.

Chen Qi also put a small bowl for Aze and Ake. A Li and A Zhang had already eaten it by themselves. Only Carlo looked at this for a while and looked at that. He smelled the fragrance and didn't dare to try and looked anxious. .

Ake took a piece and put it to Carlo's lips, "I have tasted it, and there is no strange taste. The filling inside is quite fragrant. You can try it."

Carlo was still a little hesitant, but seeing that everyone else was eating deliciously, he gritted his teeth and suppressed the resistance in his heart. He opened his mouth and took a small bite. Not to mention, it was really delicious. Carlo thought while eating the piece of stuffed large intestine handed over by Ake in one bite, and glanced at Chen Qi resentfully.

After all, they all ate dinner. Chen Qi didn't plan to cook the two ready-made stuffed large intestines. It was already late at night after such a meal. As usual, he told A Jing a Hans Christian Andersen fairy tale, while the other orcs burrowed in their hides and put up their ears to listen. Since I told A Jing a bedtime story, it has become a must-have every day.

The next day was another month with no sun, the sky was gloomy without a trace of sunshine, and the temperature felt like it had dropped several degrees. Seeing that there was going to be a blizzard at any time in this weather, Chen Qi didn't recommend A Zhang and the others to continue hunting. .

In the morning, I cooked the large intestine that was brewed yesterday but hadn't been cooked for breakfast. Yesterday, Ali gave Chen Qi a shot. He could make the breakfast in the morning by himself, and the taste was not far from the one made by Chen Qi.

After breakfast, it really snowed, but it was not windy. Chen Qi asked Aze to go to the original home and move the prepared table to use it as a desk. After the winter, Chen Qi made a set of furniture, and glued a table and a few chairs with plastic fruit. Because the plastic fruit dried too slowly, he put it in the original house to dry slowly, and now it is almost one dry. It's been a month, it should be ready to use.

Clear out a corner of the hall and place tables and chairs. The chairs have no backs, just a simple round pier with three tripods attached.

Several orcs who saw furniture for the first time were very curious about this thing. Chen Qi suggested that they could sit on the chairs and carefully demonstrated it to them once. When there is a blizzard, there is no need to go out, and things at home are not busy. Chen Qi intends to let a few people continue to practice calligraphy.

Yesterday, I picked six large bags of gum leaves. Ake brought four bags back by himself. Chen Qi took out a bunch of leaves. , Chen Qi took out the brushes that had been made, and each handed one.

After reconciling the thick fruit dyeing solution, I made a few small wooden plates before, and now it happens to be one for each person. I filled it with black fruit dyeing solution. Chen Qixian wrote a string of words on the leaves with a brush. Try the effect, although the handwriting is still too ugly to look directly at, but I have to say that the texture of this gum leaf is really similar to that of paper, Chen Qi each gave a few leaves, "You guys try to use these leaves to review yesterday. Learn the words, I will teach you new words after you finish writing the fruit dye in front of you."

Several people responded, Chen Qi taught them the posture of holding the brush, and several people began to practice seriously. The room was silent, save for the occasional crackling of the fire.

After lunch, the wind suddenly started to blow. The sound insulation effect of Locust Dragon's windows is not good. Sitting indoors, you can hear the whistle outside. Chen Qi looked at the roof, really afraid that the wind would overturn the entire roof.

"It's fine." A Ze saw Chen Qi's unease and patted his hand, "This house is built very solidly."

Chen Qi nodded. He is from the south. He has seen snow only a few times in Dalian so long. This is the first time he has seen such a big blizzard. Although he is still uneasy, his heart that has been restless when he sees A Ze by his side is still calm. down.

In the afternoon, after the others finished writing their own fruit dyeing solution, Chen Qi sent them the sand table he had made before, and practiced calligraphy on the sand table with a wooden stick. It is more convenient to use less gum leaves.

Studying is a very boring thing. Although Chen Qi disliked his writing with a brush, he couldn't stand it after practicing all morning. When others wrote those names over and over again, he ran away. Go and turn out a few sweet potatoes, pull out some warm charcoal by the fire, bury the sweet potatoes in the charcoal, and then put some red-hot charcoal fire on top, and start roasting the sweet potatoes.

Occasionally, the strong wind would force through the thick animal skin door curtain with some snowflakes in, and the sudden oncoming cold air made Chen Qi shiver. For the first time, Chen Qi regretted not getting a wooden door for his new home. Now I want to build a wooden door, I am afraid that I will have to wait until the snowstorm stops. Chen Qi threw a few pieces of wood into the fire to make the fire more vigorous. Blow it off easily.

"Chen Qi."

Chen Qi, who was standing by the window watching the snow, was in a trance, and when he heard someone call him, he turned back quickly, just in time to see Aze coming over. Chen Qi smiled and asked, "What's wrong?"

A Ze glanced at the white snow field outside the window, and the yard that had been cleaned up was covered with thick snow again, "I have learned to write everyone's names, you teach me new words."

Chen Qi was a little surprised, "Then you can write it once and show it to me."

A Ze nodded, the two walked to the table, A Ze sat down, took a new leaf, and wrote everyone's names on it with a brush stroke by stroke, Chen Qi leaned down to look, and found that even The cubs' names were written.

"Aze, you are amazing." Chen Qi praised, how long did it take to learn to write? Yesterday, Azer went hunting for a day and didn't have time to practice. The fonts he wrote now are not only better than those written by Chen Qi, but as a beginner, these names are already quite complicated. .

Hearing Chen Qi's compliment, Aze's ears were slightly red, and he pursed his lips and smiled.

Chen Qi wrote a series of simple Arabic numbers from 0 to 9 on a leaf, and then explained it to Aze. Although the orcs did not understand the words, they could understand the meaning of the words. Chen Qi just said Azer understands it once.

While Aze was practicing, Chen Qi went to check the situation of the others, and found that except for Carlo and Ajing, the others were able to write down everyone's names proficiently, and they could tell the difference even if they scrambled the words. State the pronunciation and meaning of each word.

Chen Qi taught them simple Arabic numerals one by one. Seeing that everyone else was immersed in practicing calligraphy, he estimated that the roasted sweet potato should be ready, so he took a wooden stick and went to the fire to rummage.

"Chen Qi, you actually ate it alone." Smelling the aroma of roasted sweet potatoes, Carlo shook his hand that was a little sour and muttered dissatisfied.

Chen Qi smiled and threw the hot roasted sweet potato in his hand directly to Carlo. Carlo quickly put down the writing stick and caught it in a hurry. .

"I've been writing for a long time, are you hungry? Do you want to have afternoon tea before continuing?" Chen Qi turned out all the roasted sweet potatoes and piled them aside. The hot orange-yellow sweet potato flesh, I took a bite, the sweet potatoes that have been stored for a long time in winter are sweet, Chen Qi said to the few people sitting at the table while eating with satisfaction.

The people at the table glanced at each other, put down the things in their hands and brought them to the fire. One person picked up a hot roasted sweet potato and ate it. The hot sweet potato entered the entrance, and the whole person felt warm from the inside out. stand up.

"Aze, here it is." Chen Qi handed the half-cut roasted sweet potato to A Ze who was sitting next to him. A Ze smiled and took a bite after peeling off the burnt sweet potato skin.

After eating, everyone continued to practice calligraphy, while Chen Qize began to fiddle with how to teach them to read.

Chen Qi's memory of learning to read in elementary school has long since been forgotten. Chen Qi also wanted to start teaching from the Three Character Classic and the Thousand Character Classic like the ancients. , can only give up.

Chen Qi has no experience in teaching people, and he doesn't know how to make others not feel boring to study. After thinking about it, he thinks that since the orcs like to listen to him tell stories so much, they should start teaching from the words in the stories. Several orc students have great enthusiasm for learning and are smart enough to make Chen Qi, a half-hearted teacher, toss around at will.

Chen Qijiang simply recorded the story of the mermaid he told them for the first time with gum leaves, just to recognize the characters, so he only wrote a summary of the story, and there were several wrong words in the middle. Transcribe it again, although the story is not long, it is full of two gum leaves.

I have already taught new Arabic numerals today, so I don't plan to teach other new things. I put away the two gum leaves that had written the story, and Chen Qi also picked up the pen and continued to practice calligraphy.

The snowstorm did not stop until the next day. The wind was much less, and the roof was already covered with thick snow. Chen Qi was worried that the roof would collapse, and asked Aze to clear the snow off the roof. At this time, Chen Qi realized that the orcs did not have the habit of clearing snow.

"The snow on the roof is like that for a whole winter, aren't you afraid that the house will be crushed?" Chen Qi asked with a black line.

A few people were silent for a while, and Ah Zhang asked, "Why does the house collapse if the snow is not cleared?" He only knew that several houses in the tribe would be destroyed every winter, and he always thought it was the reason for the failure of the viscosity of the gelatin liquid. , but never considered the problem of snow.

"Of course, snow also has weight. Before the snow freezes, clean up the snow on the roof first." Chen Qi said with a forehead.

Several people looked at each other and went to clean up the snow for their new house. They must know that their new house has just been built, and the pectin is not completely dry. .
