The Survival of the Wild Tribe

The flood that flooded the Black Panther tribe began to recede slowly after more than a week. When the tribe evacuated, not many animal skins were brought out, so when the large troops left, most of the animal skin tents were torn down. Taken away, there are only two left for the clansmen who are unwilling to leave.

Except for Luo Zhen and the Horned Bamboo family, not many people in the Black Panther tribe stayed this time. There are not more than 30 babies who can’t walk together. They are basically not because of children like Heifu. Those who are too young or the child is sick and can't leave with them, just like Hei Ya's legs and feet have been injured, and there is no way to walk for a long time.

In the flooded place, in addition to the panther tribe that has been evacuated quickly, there are also various animals living in this land. Those predators who once hid in the forest or in the grass have also gathered in the same area. Locally, these are a great threat to the people who stayed behind.

Fortunately, the breath of those fierce beasts still remained on the high **** where they stayed, and the surrounding predators didn't dare to rush to attack them rashly.

The two small tents left behind are naturally not enough for so many people. Everyone wants to go back to the tribe’s place to see the situation after the flood subsides. They have lived here for decades and are familiar with this place for a long time. Naturally, I feel that living in the tribe is much safer than finding a new place to live.

Luo Zhen built a simple hayloft under the banyan tree that had sheltered from the rain before. The method of making the hayloft is very simple. Just use a few tree trunks as support, and then spread thick leaves on the top of the shed. It can also be covered with moist ground such as branches and weeds. It is very convenient to lie up and sleep at night, and the ventilation effect is much better than those two densely covered animal skin tents.

After the heavy rain, the temperature rises quickly. People who are used to animal hide tents are full of curiosity about Luo Zhen’s small straw shed. In addition, they can find building materials nearby. Many people also learn from Luo Zhen. Zhen looked like he took one next to him.

Luo Zhen would also take the initiative to help when seeing this. When other people saw Luo Zhen speak so well, occasionally they would ask two sentences when they didn't understand. Luo Zhen patiently answered them one by one.

Soon a small patch of thatched hut was formed near the big banyan tree. Soldiers took turns to guard the tree day and night, so there was no need to worry about the safety of the children playing under the tree.

"Your injury is healed? Do you want to continue to play as a wounded?" Luo Zhen looked at the water level that had fallen by more than half the first day, and asked the man next to him.

Lu Zhan stared at the grass, stretched out his hand, and grabbed back a strip. Luo Zhen looked at the earthworm that kept swinging in Lu Zhan's hand and silently passed the animal skin bag over. He had a full stomach and tasted everything from ants and earthworms. At first, he was a little uncomfortable and even nauseated. Now he can deal with this kind of food that he would never touch before with his face expressionless.

"It depends." Lu Zhan did not answer Luo Zhen's question directly, but added one more sentence at the end, "They haven't climbed the Changfeng Mountain yet."

They naturally refer to the leader and the group who left with Luca, "Are you worried that they will come back if they fail to reach Changfeng Mountain?"

Lu Zhan spread his hands, because every few years he would send people to the other side of Changfeng Mountain to exchange stone and salt, so in fact, the people of the Black Panther tribe are very clear about the dangers in Changfeng Mountain, but this is the case, we will leave together this time. Lu Zhan is not only the powerful fighters, but also many ordinary people with little combat ability. Although Lu Zhan thought they would not return easily, he had to guard against it.

Looking at Lu Zhan’s expression, Luo Zhen understood what the other party was worried about. He asked another more worrying question, “What about our stone salt from now on? Should we send someone to the Tiger Lion Tribe to exchange it?”

"Who to send? It will take at least half a year to go back and forth. If the soldiers leave for so long, the people here will have been digested by all the beasts when they come back."

Luo Zhen frowned, "What if there is no stone salt?" Luo Zhen knows that Lu Zhan has a method of drinking animal blood directly to replenish salt, but this method is not long-lasting, and it is also detrimental to the development of the tribe. In addition, they are not able to hunt prey every day.

The small packet of salt left by Luo Zhen was given to them by horn bamboo. After this period of time, there is not much left, and it will be used up in a few days, even if there is no way to exchange it with other tribes. Stone salt must also find a way to find new edible salt.

"Don't worry, I know that there is a place where there are a lot of salty fruits. We can use that one instead." Lu Zhan threw a two-fingered earthworm into the animal skin bag in Luo Zhen's hand, comforting. Tao.

Luo Zhen nodded, knowing that Xianguo was also relieved, unless a salt mine could be found nearby, otherwise there would be no way to solve the current dilemma of salt shortage.

The two of them caught a bag full of earthworms before returning. When the surrounding area was flooded, all the earthworms hidden in the soil came out. The number was very large, but after being eaten by them for a few days, Now it takes some time to catch the earthworms. Several strong fighters have to go out hunting for other food today.

Axue and several women grabbed the earthworms in the other direction. When they saw them coming back, they shook their stuffed animal skin bags. Some thick earthworms tenaciously wanted to get out of the bag. The department kept crowding and swinging near the mouth of the bag, and Luo Zhen lost the goose bumps in that scene.

Axue’s animal skin bag was made by dismantling the two animal skin tents. Now everyone is temporarily living in the grass shed, and the two animal skin tents are empty, so Axue takes people to directly put the animal skins. The tents are all made into bags and backpacks. It is very convenient to put things inside when you go out to collect or catch earthworms.

People from the Black Panther tribe like this kind of bag very much. They simply made one for everyone. Now even the warriors who go hunting can go out with their backpacks, so that they don’t have to miss things like wild fruits on the road. .

"Luo Zhen, their hunters are back, can you really make these earthworms delicious?" Axue asked expectantly.

Luo Zhen looked under the banyan tree. There was a wild boar and a hog deer. They were not big, probably young cubs who had not yet grown up. The throat had been bitten and the fur was stained with a lot of blood. They drank blood when they had been hunted by horn bamboo.

"Those beasts are all gathered together, and it is not easy to catch them. Both of them were left behind because of injuries and we found a chance to catch them." Kadotake saw Luo Zhen walking over and explained the situation to him.

In the past two days, Luo Zhen took them to find a lot of edible wild plants and grass roots. Even if the soldiers can’t catch their prey, everyone doesn’t have to be hungry. In addition, Luo Zhen’s methods of making things are different from them, they are obviously the same. The ingredients can be roasted and fried. The food made is still less fishy. When everyone ate it for the first time, they almost swallowed their tongues in their stomachs. So over time, the food has nothing to do with it. The default is to report to Luo Zhen first, and the underlying meaning is naturally to want to eat food that has been processed deliciously.

"Thanks for your hard work." Although Luo Zhen was forced to accept this identity helplessly, but remembering the scene of eating earthworms on the first day of his life, for the sake of his own stomach, he could only give the food processing to the next.

However, Luo Zhen does not have to deal with everyone’s food alone. His own cooking skills are also very general. He can only teach ordinary people while doing it. Sometimes soldiers will come to learn, just for a few days. These people who had to stay either voluntarily or forced helplessly were attracted by the taste of the food and most of their sad emotions were drawn away, and everyone became more familiar and even intimate.

Facts have proved that food is the fastest way to pull the distance between people.

This time Luo Zhen did not let them throw away the bones and internal organs of the prey. Two days ago, they dug a puddle at the foot of the high slope. After a few days of standing, the water looked clear, although it could not be drunk directly. , But it is very convenient to clean things.

Knowing that Luo Zhen wanted to make new and delicious foods, all of them were rushing to work. The soldiers broke down the prey, and ordinary men and women cleaned up the earthworms.

The fire was born soon, and several stone pots began to boil bone soup. Hei Ya’s injured leg was still red and swollen, and it was difficult to walk. He didn’t want to do nothing by himself, so Lu Zhan directly gave the other party a bone knife. How did he make wooden bowls and saucers, so now they already have a lot of utensils that can be used to hold things.

Probably the animals in this world have been running and fleeing to survive, and the grease that can be obtained after all the two preys are processed is not much, but there are two or three bowls when they are boiled, which is enough for them to use.

Luo Zhen had had enough of boiling the earthworms in clean water. At this moment, he finally boiled the animal oil, and the remaining cassava was just mashed into powder by him last night, and it happened to have a fried earthworm right now.

They usually cook either grilled or boiled food. There is very little opportunity to use oil, and the soldiers will go out hunting tomorrow, so Luo Zhen doesn't need to save it at all.

Frying earthworms is very simple. Roll the processed earthworms in the tapioca flour, then throw them into the oil pan. Once they are fried, they can be picked up with chopsticks, even if they have never been exposed to this cooking method. People can see it at a glance.

Covered with tapioca flour, the fried earthworms will lose the muddy smell and taste very crispy. Lu Zhan, who can even eat all kinds of dishes made by Luo Zhen every day, couldn't help his eyes shine.

Perhaps it was the first time I had eaten fried food. The prey that the two soldiers hunted back was forgotten. Two big bags of fried earthworms were eaten almost as soon as they were out of the pot. More than 20 pairs of eyes were still eager. Watching Luo Zhen's movements closely, it made Luo Zhen a little stressed.

"You also want to eat some first." Lu Zhan finally snatched the last bit of worms back from the clansmen who didn't know how to be humble, and stuffed Luo Zhen into Luo Zhen's mouth without saying a word, almost choking Luo Zhen to death.

Others realized that Luo Zhen, the chef, hadn't eaten yet, so they stopped trying to reach out and slobbered and smiled at Luo Zhen.
