Chapter 216 216. Orc Aliang 03
Yun Tutu came in with a pile of firewood. Seeing Li Aiping's expression, he smiled and said, "Academician Li, don't be anxious. Let's settle down first. Then There is plenty of time to go out when you come down. Go.
It’s still very cold outside, let’s replenish our strength first, and then change into thick clothes.”
The temperature in this cave is unknown how much higher than it is outside. Coming here, you have to get used to it slowly.
If Academician Li was so old, Yun Tutu would not dare to take risks easily.
If you get sick here, they have brought a lot of medicinal materials, but when it comes to the elderly, sometimes even a minor illness can be fatal.
“I’m worried,” Li Aiping saw the earthen stove next to her. Although it looked a little ugly, it was still better than making it herself.
"You put it here, we used to have big pots and stoves when we were young, I know this thing."
"By the way, don't call me Academician Li, that's too much I’m unfamiliar, please call me Grandma Li.”
Yun Tutu said, “Thank you, Grandma Li. I’ll wash the vegetables and wash the rice.”
There is ready-made food in the car, but the water and meat here are both good things. People from Yuntutu are here, so of course they have to eat more.
We were just carrying things here, and Amiwa brought a few female cubs to help, causing Yun Tutu to follow behind empty-handed.
"Isn't Sister Yun here?" A Zhan and A Liang came over carrying a large piece of meat. When they found that Li Aiping and the others were the only ones, they asked curiously.
"They are going to clean things," Chen Yuxi poked her head out of the tent. The inflatable bed had been made and she was doing the final touches.
"Then I'll go find Sister Yun," Ah Zhan carried the meat and walked directly into the cave, and Ah Liang quickly followed.
Li Aiping looked at them thoughtfully. Chen Yuxi looked at her and said, "Academician Li, how about I light the fire."
Li Aiping came back to her senses and shook her head with a smile, "No need for such a trivial matter. I can."
Chen Yuxi, "Academician Li specializes in studying ancient plants. This time Are you planning to come over and bring some samples back?”
“Yes, many of them are extinct. If we can dig up a few of them, it will be helpful for future research.”
Chen Yuxi, “But. The plane here is different from ours, and the plants are also different.”
"There is no problem with this. Although the few seedlings Yun Tutu brought back last time did not survive, it was because various measures were not taken during the transplantation. I believe this time it will be much better than before."
Chen Yuxi sat on the stone next to her, "Tutu is just a little girl. She has never planted land. She is already very powerful if she can even think about bringing plants back.
The water, soil and climate of the two planes are different, and it is normal for the seeds to fail.”
“Comrade Yu Xi misunderstood,” Li Aiping said quickly when she realized that she had made a mistake. Tutu just feels sorry for those plants."
Chen Yuxi smiled and said nothing, and her feelings for Academician Li were much weaker.
I hope she can cooperate with her work in the future and not cause trouble for herself.
The fire was lit here, and Yun Tutu and the others also came back with their things. Also coming with them were A Zhan and the others.
The little guy is now not only carrying a large piece of meat in his hands, but also carrying a thigh on his shoulders.
"Sister Chen, let's cook the rice first. I'll process the meat. We'll have a good meal today."
"With so much meat, can you finish it?" Li Aiping looked at it. Holding the leg, which was bigger than a cow's leg, he quickly stopped it. Zhiyun Tutu said, "It will be a pity if we can't finish it." "There's nothing I can't finish. I have a big appetite." Yun Tutu continued to process the meat without raising his head. "Besides, it's not for just a few of us. I There are still guests here.”
Li Aiping looked at A Zhan and the others, then sat back down and continued lighting the fire.
After cutting the meat and marinating it, Yun Tutu did not forget to talk to A Liang and others about their daily life.
During the conversation, I learned that the weather began to slowly warm up the day after she left. Although it was extremely slow, it was a good change.
The ice layer that was originally several meters high has now begun to melt, and some of it has exposed the ground, which makes it easier for them to travel.
They have been busy these days, hunting prey and picking fruits.
"Why don't you marinate the meat as I taught you before, and smoke and grill it to keep it longer."
Yun Tutu taught them last time, but this time I didn't see any bacon or bacon when I came here this time.
“Don’t dare to waste something as precious as salt,” the orc Aliang said with a grin. The method Yun Tutu taught them was to preserve the meat longer, but this method was not cost-effective.
Now that the ice and snow are beginning to melt, they can just eat meat and go for a run. There is no need to waste salt for curing.
Moreover, the salt used for pickling is too expensive, not to mention that the leader is not willing to part with it, even they are not willing to do it.
Yun Tutu gave them a lot of salt in exchange, and left some for them before leaving. But this thing is not like hunting, it is available when you go out for a walk, so of course you must cherish it.
A Liang looked at Yun Tutu and felt even more grateful, "You gave us so much salt again this time, so our tribe won't have to exchange it for decades.
You If you want anything, just tell the leader and we will hunt it for you.”
The orc A Liang and the others used to go out to exchange things with the big tribes, and the good things had to be picked and picked, and the salt they got in exchange was bitter. Needless to say, the quantity is still very small.
"No, I gave those to you. You invited me to be my guest. This is a door-to-door gift from me. But while we are here, you must send more meat."
Yun Tutu pointed to the meat in the basin and said, "Just call the leader over, I want to treat him to a meal."
A Liang had already looked forward to it, and they also followed Yun Tutu's method of making food, but There is always a big difference in taste.
I just hope that Aligu and the others can learn more this time. After all, the female orcs are more ingenious than them.
When the orc Aliang left, Li Aiping looked at Yun Tutu and smiled, "Looking at them, they are not much different from us. Are they really orcs?"
Yun Tutu put the cleaned pot rack on the shelf, "No matter what they are, they are all human beings.
Let's do as the Romans do when we get here. Don't be too surprised sometimes."
Li Aiping, "I This is also out of curiosity. Let me ask you about it. After all, we I will live here for a while in the future. From what you said, I probably know and I will be mentally prepared."
Yun Tutu smiled and couldn't deny it. This is probably what Academician Li has. This is an opportunity to travel together. I hope you all get along well during this time.
Chen Yuxi took over Yun Tutu's position, "I'll do the speculation, you go and have a rest."
Yun Tutu is still very confident about Chen Yuxi's cooking skills. Although it is not as good as a chef, it is much better than her.
Since she took the initiative, she was happy and free. She carried some bread and walked into the cave. There were old orcs inside, some of whom could no longer chew meat. These breads were just right.
