Yan Hua caught up with Su Bai with two pheasants and said in a clear voice: "Let me deal with these pheasants and rabbits. If you can't finish them, you have to dry them into jerky.”
"No need. Just leave me a pheasant. I'll give you the rest.”Su Bai stuffed the rabbit in.
"For me?" Yan Hua was stunned.
"Yes, it would be good if you could get me some seasonings.”Su Bai was really hungry.
"Seasonings? Sure, I'll get it for you."
Yan Hua frowned. She lowered her head and looked at the wild chicken and rabbit in her hand. She turned around and quickly ran away.
"Hey!" Su Bai looked at the figure running away, opened his mouth and sighed: "You haven't told me where the kitchen is.”
Helpless, he could only bring the pheasant back to the tent. The sun had already set in the west, and the tent was gray. He could only search for the knife in the dark.
"Let's light the fire first." Su Bai searched for a long time. Finally, the sun had disappeared and the tent was pitch black. He had no choice but to give up looking for the knife.
He opened the curtain and saw bonfires everywhere in the tribe. Many people were busy, and the smell of roasted meat was in the air.
"Why don't you just borrow fire and knives from them? Why are you still looking around foolishly?”
Su Bai couldn't help but pat his forehead, shook his head and laughed: "Looks like I have to change my lifestyle and adapt to life here as soon as possible.”
After all, he was used to living independently on Earth and rarely sought help from others, so he couldn't think straight.
Su Bai came to the bonfire and saw a group of people busy with the wild animals with stone knives. Some people threw pheasants into the fire without even plucking their feathers.
This scene had a huge impact on him. It was wild, rough, and direct, displaying the original style in a bloody manner.
"Are they all roasted meat?" Su Bai looked around and saw nothing but barbecued meat.
Just as he was about to go over and gather, the 1.6-meter-tall bull-horned girl appeared. She carried a stone pot the size of a basin with both hands.
"What are you doing?" Su Bai was surprised at the strength of the bull-horned lady. He peeked into the stone pot and saw the whole pheasant and hare lying quietly.
"The stone pot belongs to the shaman. He asked me to bring it to you.”Yan Hua pursed her lips and said.
"For me?" Su Bai said in surprise.
"The shaman said that this thing would be given to you sooner or later. It's the same even if I give it to you now.”Yan Hua said with a dejected expression.
"Alright then." Su Bai did not refuse.
"Go back to the tent. I'll cook it and send it to you.”Yan Hua said in a clear voice as she hugged the stone pot and walked towards the bonfire.
"..." Su Bai paused for a moment and followed behind the bull-horned lady. He sat by the bonfire and watched her busy.
The bull-horned girl put down the stone pot in the middle of the bonfire, then got up and ran away. After a while, she came back with a wooden bucket and poured some water into the stone pot.
After that, there was nothing else. Yan Hua sat obediently by the bonfire and stared blankly at the stone pot in the flames. She did not make any further moves.
"Um, where's the seasoning?" Su Bai asked tentatively.
As an orphan author who stayed at home, he was capable of cooking and cooking. Of course, he could cook chicken and rabbit too.
"Here." Yan Hua scanned her surroundings and carefully took out a wooden stick that was as long as a finger from the pocket of her beast skin skirt. It should be called a wooden cylinder, and there was a wooden stopper stuffed on it.
"What is this?" Su Bai asked curiously.
"Salt." Yan Hua said in a low voice.
"Salt?" Su Bai suddenly realized that in such a primitive society, salt was very precious, unlike on Earth, where one could get two yuan for a bag of salt in the supermarket.
"Take it." Yan Hua reluctantly stuffed the salt into his mouth. Her red eyes even stole a glance.
"Don't tell me this salt is yours?" Su Bai asked with a frown.
"There is no more salt in the tribe. The totem warriors cannot live without salt. I can eat less salt for the time being.”Yan Hua's voice was a little low.
As a novelist, Su Bai had to look up a lot of information and he had also checked the importance of salt. But it was hard to say in primitive society. Everyone probably treated salt as seasoning.
He was also embarrassed to accept the salt. After all, it was the salt that the ox horn lady had treasured.
"You can keep it. You won't eat salt today.”Su Bai put the salt back.
"You don't want it?" Flame Flower was stunned. Salt was very popular. Even Totem Warriors treated it like a treasure.
"I don't want to."
Su Bai shook his head." Where did you get the salt?" he asked.”
"The hunting team went to another tribe to exchange for it.”
Yan Hua gripped the wooden cylinder tightly and said in a clear voice,""Every fifteen days, the spotted deer tribe will hold a market. People from the surrounding tribes can go there to exchange for goods.”
"How long until the next market?”Su Bai's eyes lit up. He thought he could go and take a look. Perhaps he could find something familiar.
"Ten more days." Yan Hua replied in a clear voice.
"Gulp…"
The water in the stone pot boiled and began to boil.
"I'm afraid the wild game without seasoning is a little unpalatable.”Su Bai murmured, his eyes fixed on the wild chickens and rabbits rolling in the stone pot. But his stomach was about to be 'reversed' and he would faint if he didn't fill it up.
"It should be almost ready to eat." Yan Hua took out a palm-sized stone knife from her waist. She held the stone knife in her small hand and stabbed it into the wild chicken and rabbit in the stone pot.
"Let's boil it for a while more." Su Bai quickly stopped him. He was in such a hurry to eat it when it was just boiled.
"Still not done?" Yan Hua turned her head and asked blankly.
"Is this your first time cooking meat?" Su Bai had a bad feeling.
"Yes, my mother used to cook it.”Yan Hua said righteously.
"..." Su Bai's mouth twitched. How could he be so confident when it was his first time cooking meat? Wasn't meat very precious?
"My mother cooked it this way. It shouldn't be wrong.”Yan Hua pouted and said.
"Cook it for a while more. The meat is not cooked yet.”Su Bai was in despair. It was so hard to have a meal.
Without seasonings, he had no idea where to start.
Just like that, the two of them chatted for half an hour. During this time, Su Bai stopped the bull-horned girl from trying to get meat seven times.
"Alright, you can eat now." Su Bai poked the wild chickens and rabbits with the stone knife and found that the meat could be easily broken.
"You eat first." Yan Hua became polite.
"Alright." Su Bai was starving. He cut off a chicken drumstick with a stone knife and put it on with a wooden stick that he had prepared beforehand. He handed the stone knife to the bull-horned girl and sat down to eat the drumstick.
"Huff huff…"
He blew on the air and then took a bite of the meat impatiently. The faint fishy smell surged into his taste buds, accompanied by the fragrance and sweetness of the chicken.
"How is it? Is it delicious?" Yan Hua squatted nervously beside him, her red eyes staring at the drumstick in Su Bai's hand.
