Quickly wear a life of peace

Shanye explained to Ali as he dug: "This thing tastes so good! You can cook it with rice crackers, or stir-fry it in a pan and eat it. It's delicious!"

"Yeah, then let's dig it up quickly and take it back to taste. My stomach is growling." Of course, Ali cooperated and agreed, and quickly joined the digging operation.

She walked a little further away, then waved her claws and began to dig the soil quickly. Before long, a long yam was successfully dug out of the ground.

Ali compared the yam he dug with the one in the wild and found that his yam was obviously grown last year, while the one dug in the wild was a bit old and definitely not as delicious as his, hehe...

Because the yams were large and there were many of them, they quickly dug up a large pile.

But how to bring these yams home is a problem.

Orcs usually use animal skins to carry back the food they collect, but in the eyes of the mountain people, this method is both primitive and inconvenient.

She looked around, quickly found and pulled some vines, and began to weave a vine basket quickly.

Although the woven rattan basket looks a bit rough, considering the current environmental constraints, it is good enough as long as it can be used.

This also shows that Shanye’s outdoor knowledge is indeed very rich.

Ahri was still a little cub who had not yet transformed into a human form. His body was not much bigger than a tabby cat, so he was of no help.

So, in the end, Shanye transformed into an animal and carried the animal back.

After the incident of using fire, Shanye gained a certain status in the hearts of the tribe members, and many orcs began to trust her.

Especially when Shanye took the initiative to eat the unknown food, the beastmen were full of gratitude towards her.

However, the old beastmen still taught her a severe lesson and repeatedly reminded her not to eat anything she had not tried unless she was almost starving to death.

Regardless, everyone in the tribe was delighted to have a new food source, which meant fewer people would die of hunger.

Therefore, the orcs of the gathering team went to dig yams. After all, compared with wild vegetables, yams are not only more filling, but also faster to collect.

Before they started collecting, Shanye personally demonstrated to them which yams could be dug, which were no longer edible, and the most critical point - how to properly preserve the dug yams.

Then, she led a group of people to pull up some vines and taught them how to weave vine baskets and backpacks so that they could bring the dug yams back to the tribe smoothly.

Although it was a very busy day and they were physically exhausted, the orcs' faces were filled with happiness and hope when they saw the huge harvest in the tribe, enough for them to eat for a month.

Many simple stoves were built everywhere in the tribe, especially for the orcs who had gone to the river to eat delicious grilled fish in the morning.

Even two stoves were specially built at the entrance of the cave where the priests lived, one for roasting meat and the other for cooking soup.

However, what is different is that the two stoves in front of the priest's door are carefully coated with yellow mud, so there is no air leakage at all, and there is also a finely polished stone pot placed on one of the stoves.

Ahri couldn't help but sigh in her heart, "The orcs' mobility is amazing!"

When the chief returned with the hunting team, the entire tribe had undergone tremendous changes.

In front of every household's cave, there is a neatly built earthen stove and a stone pot.

Dozens of stoves were built around the sacrificial square to facilitate cooking during large-scale ceremonies.

This idea originated from Shanye's proposal and was implemented by the old orcs.

However, the only drawback is that the time is too short, the number of stones suitable for making stone pots is limited, and the stone pots are not easy to polish, so we can only do it slowly later.

In terms of food, the mountains and wilderness have also expanded to produce several kinds of food, all of which are found around the tribe.

Spinach, rapeseed, toon...

She also taught the orcs in the tribe how to make dried vegetables out of the fresh wild vegetables they didn't finish eating. If there wasn't too little salt, Shanye would have wanted to pickle some vegetables.

In the past, the tribe would dry some vegetables and store them, as well as dried meat and jerky.

However, because they don’t know how to process it and just dry it in the sun, it either goes bad after a while or becomes inedible after being dried.

Therefore, the orcs only dry food that can be stored and eaten after drying.

When the chief returned with the hunting team, Shanye was leading a group of orcs to transplant sweet potatoes.

In that area full of sweet potatoes, the orcs used to only pick the leaves to eat, and no one cared about the roots and rhizomes.

After Shanye discovered the problem, he immediately transplanted some sweet potato seedlings to another piece of high, sandy land.

Although the orcs did not understand, based on Shanye's previous performance, everyone was willing to cooperate with her.

This was the busy scene that the hunting team saw when they returned.

"The leader is back!" Heiyan is a tiger orc. He is tall and was discovered when he was almost approaching the sweet potato field.

Everyone was very happy to see them return safely, and they all had happy smiles on their faces.

The old orc, Shan Aye, couldn't wait to step forward and tell Heiyan about the recent changes in the tribe.

"Heiyan, I'm glad you guys are back safely. No one was hurt, right?"

Seeing Heiyan smiling and shaking his head, the wrinkles on Shan Aye's face were squeezed into a chrysanthemum.

"That's good, it's really the blessing of the Beast God! Come on, let me tell you, our tribe has been experiencing a lot of good things recently!"

As he spoke, he led Heiyan all the way to the tribe.

"Look, what we have now, Shan Ye said that the roots and stems can be eaten, it can also relieve hunger, and can be stored.

Shanye said that this thing cannot be planted in one place all the time, otherwise it will easily get sick and will not grow well. It can only grow well if it is planted in a place with loose soil.

I'll take you to see the cave where we store food. There is another kind of food that we found in the mountains a few days ago.

That thing is called yam. It is good for your health when eaten, but you must cook it before eating.

Oh my, look at my memory, I forgot to tell you that we have learned how to use fire now!

Not only will it not burn the forest, but it can also be used to stew soup or grill fresh fish. In winter, you don’t have to be afraid of the cold, you can use it to keep warm, hahahaha…”

The more Grandpa Shan spoke, the more excited he became. He couldn't help laughing. After all, the lives of his tribesmen were getting better and better, which was really something worth celebrating!

Heiyan was confused by Shan Aye's series of words and felt as if he was in a fog.

More importantly, is there really anyone who can control fire?
