Crossing to Live in the Wilderness Plains

A Chu pulled up the remaining jars, and in just one night, there was an octopus in each jar, which shows that there are really many octopuses in this area of ​​water.

It's a pity that the big octopus like yesterday's is rare, and maybe because of the jar, the size of the octopus caught is similar to Chen Qi's perception.

After cleaning all the octopuses out of the jar, A Chu put the jar back into the water as before, planning to come back in the evening to see if he can still catch it.

In order to thank Chen Qi for providing such an easy way to catch octopus, Achu called five or six clansmen to help Chen Qi refine the salt stone and process the dried mussels.

A Chu dipped a little bit of salt that had been refined like sand and licked it with his tongue, and found that the bitterness was gone, and the taste was a little better than before, and he couldn't help sighing: "I didn't expect you to know so many things. "This male has only been here for two days, he not only told them how to eat a new food, but also taught them an easy way to catch octopus. If the other party can live in his tribe for a long time, Achu feels that the tribe will not be long before. will change a lot.

Unfortunately, he is not from his tribe. Thinking of this, A Chu couldn't help but glared at A Xu, it would be great if his eldest son could turn such a good man over.

Hearing A Chu's praise, Chen Qi smiled and didn't answer.

Refining the salt stone is a time-consuming job. After all, Chen Qi can't stay here for too long. In order to speed up the process, Achu asked the people in the tribe to take the salt stone home and refine it before sending it over.

Chen Qi felt a little embarrassed to see Achu and the others busy with their own affairs, "Now the mussels by the rocky beach are at their most plump, you can also pick some dried mussels and store them for winter. food, or use it to exchange resources with other tribes when the tribe gathers." Chen Qi suggested.

Speaking of the tribal gathering, A Chu thought about it, turned around and whispered a few words to A Xu, A Xu nodded, A Chu straightened his body, glanced at the few people in Qize City, and finally turned his eyes It fell on A Xu. This time, the leader of the few people who came from Qi Ze City was obviously this middle-aged female named A Xu. If A Chu had anything about the tribe, he could only talk to A Xu, even though he had nothing in his heart. In fact, I want to tell Chen Qi more, but it is obvious from Chen Qi's appearance that he is not a person in charge.

"Regarding the tribal gathering during the first snow, we want to go to Qize City this year, do you mind?" Of course, he still had to discuss with the rest of the tribe in the end.

A Xu was stunned for a while, and he put the mussels shells that had been peeled aside. "Aren't you going to the Lion and Wolf Tribe?" The Lion and Wolf Tribe is the tribe with the largest number of people nearby, and the surrounding small tribes gather every year at the There is exchange of resources and information. If the Luoshui tribe does not go to the meeting of the Lion and Wolf tribe this year, it will not only lose the resources that can be exchanged, but also what happened on the plain this year, which is related to the next winter orcs. How to defend against Hyena attack.

A Chu smiled indifferently. How could the resources that other tribes exchanged be comparable to the things in Qi Ze City? Just looking at the surprises that Qi Ze City brought to his tribe in the past two days is enough for them to go to the Lion and Wolf tribe to exchange. It has been harvested several times. As for the Hyena Dragon, which tribe lives closer to the forest than Qi Ze City?

As if afraid that A Xu would not agree, A Chu continued: "There are still many young males in our tribe, and we can go to Qize City to communicate together."

Chen Qi knew that the other party's implication was to have a blind date meeting between tribes.

The Luoshui tribe is a rare place where there are more males than females, perhaps because the Luoshui Lake provides a long-term food source, and the rocky mountain group acts as a natural defense barrier. The survival rate of males here is very high, except for those born after birth. Those who are naturally weak will die within a few winters, and generally live to adulthood.

There are not many people in the Luoshui tribe, and the tribes who have proliferated for a long time are more or less related to each other. For this reason, the orcs of the Luoshui tribe are now looking for a partner, whether it is a female or a male, only If you can go to other tribes to find them, some females who are reluctant to leave the nostalgic tribe can only stay alone.

It is also because of this reason that Axu has not found a suitable partner. Otherwise, with his ability, any tribe can become a hunting expert in it.

Now the adult male in Qize City and Chen Qi, there is only Carlo. He has no choice but to be moved by A Chu's proposal. A Le next to him is already staring at A Xu with bright eyes, for fear that he will not agree. Can't wait to nod on his behalf.

Axu didn't dare to nod his head immediately about the communication between the tribe and the tribe. He looked at Chen Qi inquiringly. Chen Qiu stabbed A Ze who was sitting beside him with his arm. A Ze didn't even raise his head. In an orderly manner, he opened the shell of the cooked mussels and took the meat, and said indifferently: "Before coming to the Luoshui tribe, the patriarch gave the decision to you." That is to say, we all listen to you and have no opinion.

A Xu's eyebrows twitched, and he glared at A Ze secretly.

Axu added: "Even if your tribe's men and our tribe's males become partners, if you don't want to, we won't force you to come to the Luoshui tribe."

Ah Xu looked at him in surprise, lowered his head to think for a while, and finally nodded, "Well, we didn't plan to go to the Lion and Wolf Tribe for this year's rally. If you can come, we are naturally welcome."

A Chu smiled and patted A Xu on the shoulder, got up and went out directly to tell the others the news, and by the way, discuss the events of this year's rally.

This flamboyant approach made several people in Qize City stunned for a moment. It's only halfway through summer now, so don't be in such a hurry, right?

Although Chen Qi hopes to make dried mussels and refined salt stones, Chen Qi, who taught people from the Luoshui tribe how to deal with mussels and refined salt stones, did not do it himself, but gave them to Ah Xu and Ah Le. A Xu and A Shu also learned a lot in Qize City before, and they also learned a lot of things with Chen Qi along the way. It is not an overnight thing to teach all these things to the people in the tribe.

And Ale, who had learned swimming the best before, was also pulled by Ashu and ran to Luoshui Lake to continue learning to swim. In less than a day, he almost became one with the young females of the Luoshui tribe. Because of Ale's swimming like a fish in the water, the females of the Luoshui tribe were envious and gained a lot of admiration.

The matter of drying the mussels was handed over to A Chu's partner Luther and two male sons for help. Chen Qi, who was free, planned to go shopping nearby with A Ze.

After checking their drawing tools, Chen Qi and A Ze left A Xu's cave.

The two did not go up the rocky mountain, but went along the Luoshui Lake in the opposite direction from which they had picked the salt stones. Because there was no destination, Chen Qi was not in a hurry, and took Aze's hand in the lake. While walking slowly, there is quite a feeling of vacationing by the sea.

The salty wind blew over from the water and dissipated the surrounding heat. Aze was wearing a dark green camouflage coat, a straw hat on his head, and his trouser legs were slightly rolled up, leaving behind them on the golden sand. A neat row of footprints.

Chen Qi turned his head slightly and looked at the nondescript straw hat. He reached out and pinched the other party's tanned skin, "Next time I should make you a nicer hat."

"That hat is so pretty."

"Where does it look good? It's not worth it, look at you, your face is tanned." Chen Qi pinched Aze's face again, um, it feels really good.

A Ze just smiled, as long as what Chen Qi did, he thought it looked good.

Aze's skin is actually not dark. If you want to say it, it should be the kind of healthy and beautiful wheat color. Instead, Chen Qi has tanned a lot this summer. Because he has been wearing long sleeves for a long time, he was not touched when he took off his clothes. The demarcation line of the covered part of the skin is very obvious. Fortunately, he is not a girl, so he doesn't need to pay too much attention to these things, but every time he sees it, he still gets a little depressed. Why are the skin color of the orcs so uniform? He really wanted such a skill.

Even if Luoshui Lake is not the sea, perhaps because the water is salty, the creatures that grow here are not much different from those in the sea. Chen Qi can see various shellfish and coral washed up by the water on the beach. Some crabs seem to be Because no orcs have caught them as food because of their hard shells, they ran rampant on the beach without any scruples. Unfortunately, they met Chen Qi today who knew how to turn them into delicious food.

Since Chen Qi accidentally caught the crab and almost broke his skin, Aze didn't dare to let him do it. Chen Qi took the initiative to step forward and walked in front of the two without realizing it. The Cancer grabbed it, and as soon as the fingers used force, the two giant pincers that could hurt people were easily broken off.

"The crabs here are really big." Chen Qi swallowed as he looked at the giant crab, which was almost the size of his entire face. How much meat would there be in this thing.

The two found some branches nearby and set fire to it. Before going out, Aze put his backpack on his back, which contained a pottery bowl that he carried with him. He added some water to the pottery bowl and put the whole crab into it to cook. Filled a pottery bowl, and when the crab turned beautiful red, Chen Qi couldn't wait to peel it off and eat it.

Although it wasn't long after lunch, the two still ate two cancer crabs. Of course, most of them fell into A Ze's stomach. Chen Qi still felt very satisfied, and touched his stomach, which was a little stretched, "I had known that just now. Don't come out after eating." Chen Qi helped put out the fire and said with a little regret.

"If you like it, we'll grab some when you come back later." A Ze fondly took out a bamboo tube filled with water and handed it to Chen Qijing.

"This can be."

For orcs who only know how to hunt large prey, the beach may only be a dispensable place where a lot of sand is accumulated, but for Chen Qi, it is simply a treasure. Chen Qi not only found crabs, but also many conch shells. When he was about to leave the range of the beach, he also encountered a huge turtle. The turtle was more than one meter high, and the huge four feet were as thick as Chen Qi's thighs.

Chen Qi pulled A Ze's sleeve in surprise, "A Ze, is that a turtle?"

Aze has never seen a turtle, but he has seen a tortoise, feeling that the two things are no different in appearance, he nodded uncertainly.

Afraid of scaring the turtle, Chen Qi excitedly dragged Aze to hide in the pile of rocks next to him, staring at the turtle. There was a huge cave dug behind the turtle. , opened his mouth slightly, his eyes fixed on the water surface not far away, and a line of tears slid down the corner of his eyes.

"I didn't expect that turtles would really cry when they lay eggs." Chen Qi commented with relish.

"Is it because of the pain?" Aze asked softly after a moment of silence.

Chen Qi thought for a while, then shook his head, "I don't know either, maybe it's because the lacrimal glands are too developed." He doesn't have much research on this aspect.

A Ze didn't speak any more, but his fingers unconsciously stroked the not-so-obvious scar on his right wrist.

The turtle laying eggs was very slow. Chen Qi and the two had just laid their first egg when they arrived. The two watched for a while. Chen Qi made a mark nearby, and then pulled A Ze to quietly detour from behind. I plan to come back after visiting the area around here.

I don't know if turtle eggs can be eaten, but he hasn't eaten eggs for a long time. Chen Qi licked the corner of his lips and thought.
