MTL - I Have a System of Orcs-~ Chapter 14
No matter on Earth or on the Beastman Continent, food is very important.
Wei Changcheng can receive food from the hunting team of the eastern tribe every night, but as Daniel's father Jeffrey said that day, as a male who will not make any contribution to the tribe, Wei Changcheng Cheng didn't get much food, at least not enough to fill Wei Changcheng's stomach. In every tribe in the Beastman Continent, a hunting team composed of males will go hunting for food every day, and the food will be distributed to the whole tribe after it is brought back. Any prey caught outside of this will be counted as their own. It is a pity that Wei Chang Cheng's combat power is infinitely close to zero, so naturally there is no other prey to serve as his other food. Therefore, Wei Changcheng still needs to find wild fruits and the like to fill his stomach every day.
It's just better than being in the Karoo tribe, isn't it? Wei Changcheng cheered himself up secretly, no one here would be malicious to him, more sympathy for himself, sympathy for him not being able to turn into a beast body. They will greet themselves with enthusiasm and friendliness, just like this, Wei Changcheng is already very satisfied.
Since sending himself to the new residence that day, Daniel has not been here again. Wei Changcheng was a little disappointed and angry at first. He thought he had nothing to provoke Daniel, but why did Daniel ignore him? However, after a long time, Wei Changcheng relaxed his mind. He was already very grateful that Daniel could bring him to the eastern tribe. As for why Daniel alienated himself for no reason, Wei Changcheng was no longer obsessed with finding the answer.
Wei Changcheng's right cave is empty, and an old male lives in the left cave. The old male is called Boris. His leg must have been injured and he walked with a limp. Wei Chang thought that every time Boris went to fetch food, it would be very difficult. As soon as his sympathy broke out, he went to fetch the food. At the time, I directly brought back Boris's food together, and because of this, the relationship between Boris and Wei Changcheng was changing rapidly, but after a few days, the two of them were able to eat together.
Wei Changcheng carried back a very thick stone from the outside, and when it was carried to Boris' house, Wei Changcheng was already sweating profusely from exhaustion, so he threw the stone on the ground, and Wei Changcheng sat down on the ground straight pant.
Boris shook his head helplessly at first: "Little Wei (this is what Wei Changcheng asked Boris to call), although you can't transform into a beast shape, it is still very important to exercise your body. Look, just move Such a stone makes you so tired." Then there was confusion in his eyes, "But Xiaowei, what are you doing with a stone?"
Wei Changcheng laughed twice: "Uncle Boris, I know you are very powerful!" Pointing to the stone on the ground, he gestured and said, "Can you hollow out the middle of this stone? Take out an arc Come on, be thinner. That's it, that's it, that's it."
After Wei Changcheng's magical gestures, Boris finally understood Wei Changcheng's meaning, but—"Why did you make it like that?"
Wei Changcheng blinked his eyes: "Secret. But don't worry, you will be very pleasantly surprised when it succeeds."
Boris looked at Wei Changcheng suspiciously for a long time, but finally he was defeated and turned into a beast—a lion, stretching out its paws and started digging pits, no, it started digging stones. After a while, Boris finished the business. Wei Changcheng stretched his head to look in. It was very good, it was an arc, and the bottom was thin and the sides were thicker, except for the obvious claw marks.
Wei Changcheng ignored those claw marks, picked up the stone again, no, it can be called a stone pot now, and walked outside while muttering: "I have to wash this pot first, in case It’s not good to be infected with any bacteria.”
Although Boris didn't understand what bacteria were, it didn't affect Boris' knowledge that this was not a good word.
The stone that was dug into a stone pot was much lighter than before, and Wei Changcheng didn't have as much effort to hold it as before. He carried the stone pot to the river, and Wei Changcheng buried his head and began to clean it. It's enough to eat barbecue these days. Sure enough, people are greedy. When Wei Changcheng couldn't eat meat, he felt satisfied if he could eat meat. Now that he can eat meat every day, he thought it would be great if he could change the pattern. I complained about the inferiority of human beings. Brush it, brush it, it's almost done, Wei Changcheng put water in the stone pot and walked back.
Daniel, who was hiding in the dark, saw that Wei Changcheng had left, and then he showed his figure with complicated eyes.
"Daniel, you don't look like my son at all." Jeffrey's sudden appearance didn't surprise Daniel, and Daniel called "Father."
Jeffrey's eyes followed Wei Changcheng's figure until he disappeared, and then turned to face Daniel: "When I was chasing your father, I was not as cowardly as you."
"But, but." Daniel struggled, "Xiao Cheng is a male."
Jeffrey frowned: "I don't remember that we orcs have a rule that males and females are not allowed to form partners."
Daniel was taken aback, and looked straight at Jeffrey. Jeffrey patted Daniel on the shoulder and said earnestly: "Daniel, my son, don't let yourself regret it later." After speaking, Jeffrey left, leaving Daniel alone.
"Xiao Wei, what are you going to do?" Looking at the busy Wei Changcheng, Boris couldn't help asking.
Wei Changcheng smiled and threw the meat to Boris: "Uncle Boris, could you please tear the meat into strips?"
Boris: "..."
Due to the limited materials in his hands, Wei Changcheng couldn't make anything good. He just put the onion, ginger, garlic, meat and salt together in a stone pot to cook. Below is a pile of stones that resembles a small stove. , the stone pot is on top.
Boris can see what Wei Changcheng is doing, so he is making food, and he is still making food that he has never eaten. Tribes have never had anything to eat.
The smell from the stone pot made Boris swallow his saliva. It was a strong smell, and there was an unknown smell in it that he had never tasted before—well, it was actually green onion, ginger, and garlic. , Boris couldn't wait any longer: "Xiaowei, can't we eat now?"
"We have to wait for a while." Wei Changcheng fished out a piece of meat and found that the meat was not cooked through, so he replied.
Boris was a little disappointed, but his eyes were still fixed on the stone pot.
While the broth in the stone pot was not ready, Wei Changcheng went outside to pick up a few stones and came back, asking Boris to make them into the shape he wanted. Boris didn't want to talk to Wei Changcheng at first, But when Wei Changcheng said that if he didn't get it out, he couldn't eat the broth, Boris immediately grabbed the stone in Wei Changcheng's hand and started to work hard. After a while, two crude stone bowls and spoons appeared Boris' hand.
"What is this?" Boris was quite curious.
Wei Changcheng was also quite patient: "Hey, just follow me to do what I do later." Turning to look at the broth, "It's ready to eat!" After that, he picked up the spoon and went to scoop up the broth, Boris quickly learned Wei Changcheng's method, and rushed to start fishing.
After taking the first bite in his mouth, Boris' eyes shone like a hungry wolf. Well, it's not that Wei Changcheng's cooking is delicious, but think about it, you let a decades-old If someone who has been eating apples suddenly eats a pear, it must be that the pear is quite delicious. This is how Boris feels now, so when Wei Changcheng finished his second bowl, there was no soup in the stone pot.
Wei Changcheng: "..."
Boris touched his head in embarrassment: "Hey, I'm so sorry, I ate it all."
Wei Changcheng curled his lips, and threw an apple beside him to Boris: "Forget it, I can understand how you feel now." I have nothing to do with myself, just go back and eat more fruit later, by the way , there seems to be some chestnuts or something, but I will really find something to eat tomorrow, Wei Changcheng thought secretly in his heart.
The forest on the west side of the eastern tribe, that is, the forest where Wei Changcheng and Daniel came, is really big, so relatively speaking, there must be a lot of food in it, so you can always find a small piece every day, so Future recipes will also be less monotonous.
Wei Changcheng suddenly remembered something, and asked Boris who was lying on the ground digesting: "Uncle Boris, my memory is not good, how long is it until Yanyue?"
Boris rubbed his stomach, casually: "It's almost there, it's less than a month away."
Is that so? Wei Changcheng was thoughtful.
"Hey, it's okay to say that Yanyue is a bit hotter, but there are a lot of things to eat. In the rainy moon that passed by Yanyue, it really rained seven or eight days out of ten. When the rainy moon passes, it will be a snowy moon." , At that time, it was difficult to eat enough, Xueyue hunting is too difficult." Boris lamented again and again, especially for an old and disabled male like him, who basically spends Xueyue hungry, after all At that time, the prey caught by the clan was too little, and the females had to be taken care of, and the strong males couldn’t be treated badly, so they were the only ones who were old and weak. No, Boris’s eyes were on guard. Chang Cheng turned around, this time adding Xiao Wei.
However, Boris's eyes turned to the stone pot again. He was only lame, and he was not a fool. The stone pot made by Wei Changcheng, the so-called stone bowl and stone spoon in his mouth, and even the one he cooked He knew what the broth and the things he had never eaten floating on the broth represented.
But, so what? Boris shrugged. These were all created by Wei Changcheng. He was only a user at best, and he couldn't do anything for them anyway. What's more, Boris' eyes were darkened, and he didn't stay behind. Turning around with traces on the ground, he was already very tired.
