Chapter 26, Shu Ke's daily life, Mu Juan finally cried
After bidding farewell to the two uncles, Shu Ke wanted to walk back by herself, but Beta insisted on sending them off, so there was no other way but the two of them walked back together. Naturally, there was another silence on the road, but it was less embarrassing and uncomfortable.
"Okay, I'm here, you go back."
Beta looked at Shu Ke's house, which was not far away, and nodded, "You go in first."
Shu Ke stood there without moving. Does this orc like his brother?
"... Beta, you and brother—" Shu Ke, who wanted to ask clearly, stopped, then gave up, and turned his back to each other under Beta's puzzled eyes: "It's nothing, you go back quickly, I'm going in .”
The door was closed, but neither of them was as calm as they seemed.
Beta stood there in shock, maybe Shu Ke misunderstood that he had something to do with Xia Zhan, uh...
Shu Ke thought in her heart that time is the best healing medicine, and Beta will come out sooner or later. Thinking of this, the slight awkwardness in her heart was directly ignored by herself.
In the next few days, they were busy harvesting. Such a big movement naturally attracted the attention of the whole tribe. After each of them had harvested a lot of grass seeds, Mu Sen went to find Cui Bo and the sacrificial priest. Mi's matter was revealed, but he directly concealed the fact that Shu Ke discovered it, only saying that it was discovered by accident, and they were not sure whether it could be eaten or not, and they didn't know how to do it, so they only studied it for a few days , Now it has been confirmed that it is not only edible, but also convenient to store.
Cui Bo wanted to make things difficult, but unfortunately other people didn't think so. Mu Sen helped others, telling them how to pick and dry, and even taught them the jacketed boards and stone mortars that Shu Ke had made.
Especially the jacketed board, a wooden stick about two meters thick with half the thickness of the wrist, a light wooden board, connected by a rotatable wooden shaft, hold the back of the long wooden stick, lift it and drop it, you can use it The movable wooden board knocks down the dried grass seeds, and even some shells fall naturally, which saves a lot of trouble.
Under Shu Ke's insistence, Mu Sen didn't reveal that he discovered the various condiments, but just brought these things to the priest Bai Ya, who confirmed that these things were non-toxic and edible, and then announced to the whole tribe.
Food has always been the focus of the tribe's survival. Musen took out so many things at once, and Dongjun and Chengzi's house were immediately welcomed and enthusiastic by the tribesmen. In exchange for giving them these things, recently , They didn't go out to hunt, and they focused on sorting grass seeds at home, threshing those that should be threshed, those that should be shelled, and those that should be planted.
The grass seeds in Shu Ke's backyard made them jealous, and they exchanged methods one after another. When they went back, they opened a fast place next to their own house and sprinkled the seeds. They couldn't help sending things to Shu Ke again until they saw them sprouting.
Compared with all the things she encountered when she woke up at the beginning, Shu Ke enjoyed the comfort of the recent period. She didn't need to meet bad people and didn't get involved in any bad things.
Get up normally in the morning, either go to collect with Mujuan and Dongjun, or go to the forest to hunt with Beta, and find some edible things by the way, such as mango, apricot, pipa and even kiwi, vegetables There are potatoes, radishes, and even a lot of tomatoes found on a mountain wall. The only difference is that these tomatoes are hanging on tall and strong trees. After taking this tree back, only the fruit was picked in the end. Fortunately, Shu Ke's system prompted that tomato seeds can germinate and be planted.
There is one thing that surprised Shu Ke, that is, neither Wu Qiong nor Hongguo came to trouble him, Wu Qiong will not say anything, Cui Bo will always supervise behind, but with that Hongguo's insidious character, he didn't do anything , This not only surprised Shu Ke, but also made him secretly vigilant.
As the family ate more, preservation became a problem. Beta took Shu Ke to the salt lake, then went around the salt lake to the back of the mountain, and collected a large basket of cold grass from there. This grass has a cooling effect , Just put one in, and the temperature in the storage room dropped immediately.
After staying inside for a while, Shu Ke felt so cold that it was almost as early as winter.
But even so, I am still very happy. The system improved again at the moment when frozen grass was discovered. When ingredients or medicines are found, freezing will also be taken into consideration. For example, cooked white rice porridge, ice porridge appeared. Shu Ke couldn't find the beans with some additives in them, but there was no shortage of fruits.
The little cubs who have eaten the river mussels made by Shu Ke come here to explore their brains if they have nothing to do. If Shu Ke is free, he will also make some snacks for them, such as a large basket of snail lions that he found back, and cut them with scissors made by an old orc. The tail, and then stir-fried in a pot for the little ones to suck and play; such as fried rice with some spices; such as making some vegetables or something, prepare animal oil and iron plates, and let them make barbecue by themselves.
In Shu Ke's eyes, these are children's toys. As a result, Mu Juan and Dong Jun saw it and learned it. They went home and made it. Others saw it and learned it again. When Shu Ke knew it , these practices have spread throughout the tribe.
The temperature in summer was even higher than Shu Ke had imagined. Even though he was wearing short sleeves, he could still feel the heat. The females of the tribe also shortened the time to go out to collect, and almost all came back before noon.
The orcs went out early in the morning and tried to come back before noon, and then stayed at home.
Shu Ke feels hot, but he is not afraid of heat. In other words, he hopes that he can get a healthy complexion like Beta.
The grass on the river bank has almost been collected, and most of the rest are not growing well. The grass is in a mess, and the straw is tilted. Shu Ke was worried that these residues would affect the growth of the next season. Beta told him, don’t worry, Because these straws will rot soon, otherwise there would have been a thick layer on the ground.
The wooden pillars in the yard are very strong. Shu Ke built a hammock between them with hemp rope and animal skin. Because the animal skin was a bit hot, Shu Ke sewed a layer of linen inside the animal skin and stuffed some cold grass in the middle. , the effect is not as high as the living plant height. In such weather, it is still outside, but it also plays a role in cooling down.
Looking at the erratic white clouds in the sky, Shu Ke slowly closed his eyes.
Just as Mu Juan was about to speak, she was held back by Dong Jun, who shushed her lips, and the two walked out lightly, closing the door behind them.
"Juanzi, since brother Xia Zhan left, this seems to be the first time Keke has slept like this---" Tilting his head, Dong Jun couldn't think of what to say, anyway, it was hard to believe that he would fall asleep, and Or while talking to them.
Mu Juan froze for a moment, then lowered her head: "Yes, Dong Jun, I'm a little sleepy, and I'm going back too."
Dongjun was silent for a while, then nodded, "Go ahead, think about it."
"...you know? Is it obvious that I am?" Mu Juan thought she was hiding well.
"I didn't know before, but you can talk in your sleep and cry when you fall asleep, so I know, Ke Ke, didn't you say that we are all friends? What else do friends talk about? In short, let go Well, or Ke Ke also..."
"I know," Mu Juan leaned against the door, "but I never thought that such a thing would happen, he told me, let me consider adulthood, if at that time, if I can persist, he will go with me Find a priest to register."
Tears that had been held back for a long time suddenly fell down, covering her mouth, Mu Juan didn't want to disturb Shu Ke inside.
Dongjun walked over and hugged Mujuan who was shorter than him: "It's okay, it's okay, it's okay if you cry."
Shu Ke stood motionless by the door. How ignorant and ignorant this original body was. She didn't know anything about her brother. She made him worry and worried, and in the end... silently in her heart After saying sorry to Mujuan, Shu Ke lightly walked back to the original place, lay down on the hammock, and closed her eyes.
The bed was shaking, thoughts were flying, Shu Ke raised the corners of his mouth, brother?In the past life, there is no shortage in this life, but it is a pity that the love is deep and the relationship is shallow. Maybe he has never been favored by the gods, so after realizing the importance of brothers again and again, he finds that there is no chance anymore.
Driss, Mo Xiwen, Xia Zhan, they are all good brothers!
Duolin glanced at Mujuan who walked in, suddenly stopped what he was doing, put down the mortar, and walked over.
"What's the matter?" Didn't you mean at Shu Ke's house with Dongjun and the others?Why are you crying?He reached out and took out a rag, and gently wiped away Mu Juan's tears that appeared again.
"Father, father, why is it Xia Zhan, why..."
Mu Sen, who just came back, was still holding the prey in his hand and Duo Lin's eyes met. The two of them understood and at the same time heaved a sigh of relief. It seems that his son who only knows how to eat all day long is actually stronger than anyone else in his heart. Stubborn, although it took so long to cry, they were finally relieved now.
The man's hair was tangled together, most of his face was covered by his beard, and his expression could not be seen. His frown showed that the other party was still asleep.
"How is it? Are you still awake?" The old orc came in carrying two fish.
The white-haired female sighed: "No, it's been more than three months, do you think it will?"
"Isn't the wound all right? Don't worry, I should wake up soon." But I'm going to leave when I wake up.
There was a vague voice in the ear of the orc, and his eyelids were heavy. He tried hard to open it, but he couldn't. Finally, he suffered a headache and fell into the darkness again.
With a plop, Shu Ke raised her head and stared blankly at the hammock. Did he fall from it?Then he frowned again, what dream did he have just now?
