Farming in the Beast World: I Lead the Orphan Beast Husband to Become Rich

The two fires were burning fiercely, with crackling sounds coming from time to time.

The roasted chicken was not cooked yet, but a rich aroma was already wafting outside the cave.

After the egg rolls were fried, Lin Xi and Wu Chen finished them in just a few bites.

The slate was shiny with the oil that Lin Xi had applied to the eggs when she fried them. Lin Xi thought it was a bit wasteful, so he spread a few leaves of sweet grass on top and fried them slowly.

She had tried this before, and the fried sweetgrass tasted fresh and sweet, even like the fried baby cabbage in a skewers. Wu Chen didn't like to eat wild vegetables, but she unexpectedly liked this fried sweetgrass.

The roasted chicken would have to wait for a while. Lin Xi sat in front of the stone slab, turning over the sweetleaf grass. Wu Chen, however, sat directly in front of the place where Lin Xi had made the bow and arrow before. He picked up the wood and bone knife that Lin Xi had placed there, and started chopping one by one, imitating Lin Xi's movements.

The orc was very strong. It only took him about ten minutes for the tree trunk, whose fur had just been damaged by Lin Xi, to take shape of a bow.

Lin Xi sat aside and watched in admiration.

She picked up a piece of sweetleaf grass that had been fried to a golden color from the stone slab and put it to Wu Chen's mouth. Wu Chen paused for a moment, the black ears on his head moved, and he lowered his head to take a bite.

"Xixi, it's delicious."

He swallowed the leaves in a few bites, and did not forget to praise Lin Xi's cooking skills, showing great emotional value.

Lin Xi couldn't help laughing and picked up another piece for him.

Then he looked at the movements of his hands, was stunned for a while, and suddenly asked: "Wu Chen, when do we start preparing for winter hunting and fruits?"

Wu Chen's movements slowed down for a moment, he thought for a moment, and replied:

"Xixi knows how to pickle bacon. Actually, we can do it now. At the latest, we should start after it rains and the weather gets a little colder. Otherwise, it will be too late."

"Is that so..." Lin Xi nodded, thoughtfully.

At this time, Wu Chen looked at her again and said, "Xixi, today Chief Bai Nu asked when you would like to receive the giant beast given to you?"

Lin Xi was stunned, and after thinking for a while, he said, "We can do it now. We can make the meat of the giant beast into bacon, and then after a while, we can freeze the prey we hunt back outside for preservation."

At this point, Lin Xi looked at Wu Chen with some uncertainty: "Wu Chen, if we go hunting after the next rain, will the weather be so cold that the prey we bring back from hunting will freeze?"

"Yes." Wu Chen nodded affirmatively: "That's what Wu said. It will be very cold after another rain."

When Lin Xi heard that it was Wu who said that, he felt relieved.

She nodded: "That's good."

The witch in the tribe is like an encyclopedia of the world of beasts to Lin Xi.

From medical care to climate, to the guidance of the orcs' thinking and changes in various aspects of life, the witch's knowledge is the most authoritative.

She picked up a piece of sweetleaf grass for herself, put it in her mouth, and leaned against Wu Chen while chewing: "Well, Wu Chen, you have to bring back a few more stone jars tomorrow, and then you can use them to marinate the giant beast meat."

"And get some more bricks. I want to build a stove in the cave. This way, in the winter, we don't have to cook outside in the cold cave!"

Wu Chen did not hesitate and immediately nodded and agreed: "Okay!"

The second bow was quickly sharpened in Wu Chen's hands.

He followed Lin Xi's example, inserting branches on both sides of the fire and then roasting the bow over the fire.

At this moment, the four roasted chickens on another fire were also ready.

But Lin Xi only ate two chicken wings in the end.

Because she had already eaten half of the omelet made from the four gray eggs, and she also ate several wild fruits and a few slices of fried sweet grass, so she was already about 70% full!

So the remaining roast chicken all went into Wu Chen's stomach.

After dinner, Lin Xi planned to start making arrows.

She took out a branch that was as long as her arm and as thick as her finger, peeled off the bark first, and then sharpened one end. After she finished sharpening one branch, she gave the rest to Wu Chen to do.

She took a handful of animal skins and animal hair that had been cleaned and boiled in water, and started making shoes.

The weather was getting cold, but she was still wearing the sneakers she wore when she traveled through time.

Now, only a short time has passed, but the surface of the shoes has already shown obvious wear and tear. She is afraid that if she doesn't do it now, the shoes will suddenly break one day and she won't even have a replacement!

Lin Xi’s own shoes are easier to make.

She simply used the burnt branches as a brush, placed the current sneakers on the animal skin, and traced the shape of the soles.

Then stack four thick animal skins together and cut out the shape.

Lin Xi cut the soles for three pairs of shoes for herself. She planned to make a pair of single shoes that she was wearing now, and two pairs of cotton shoes.

But making shoes for Wuchen is a bit troublesome.

She first traced the size of Wu Chen's feet, then recalled the shape of the old Beijing cloth shoes she had seen before, and traced the outline of the shoes outside the foot shape before she could cut them.

Wu Chen cut two pairs of soles in total, and Lin Xi planned to make both pairs of shoes into cotton shoes.

Because for orcs, the current weather is of just the right temperature, and their feet won't feel cold even if they don't wear shoes.

In addition, winter hunting is about to begin, and Wu Chen needs to frequently transform into a leopard when going out. If he wears shoes, he has to take them off before transforming, which would be very troublesome.

But it’s different in winter.

There is no need to go to the forest frequently in winter, so Wu Chen will not have too many opportunities to transform into a beast, and there will be no trouble of taking off shoes before transforming.

After cutting the soles of the shoes, Lin Xi put the pile of animal skins back into the fruit shell.

Then he took the pile of animal hair wrapped in animal skin, placed the animal skin on the ground, and began to poke the animal hair with the bone needle.

She planned to use the animal hair to make a felt, and then cut the felt into the shape of shoe soles, adding one to each pair of soles, so that the soles would not be too thin and freeze the feet in winter.

There is no need to use too much technical skills to make animal hair felt, but it is very time-consuming.

By the time Wu Chen had finished whittling away all the branches and roasting them on the fire, Lin Xi's animal skin felt was only half finished.

She shook her sore wrists, put down everything in her hands, and let out a breath.

The night breeze was still very comfortable. She leaned lazily on Wu Chen's body. The moon above her head was still very bright. Around the moonlight, the Milky Way was shining like a sea of ​​diamonds. There was no feeling that the cold winter was coming.

Lin Xi used his left hand to gently rub his right wrist to relieve the soreness in it.

But suddenly both hands were taken away by a pair of big hands.

She lowered her head and saw the orc using his slender fingers to gently rub her wrist, imitating her.

The orc's hands were very big, and he pinched her wrist with two fingers.

The shape of those hands was unexpectedly beautiful, slender but not too thin, with bulging veins on the back of the hands, giving a feeling of strength.

Lin Xi looked at these hands, inexplicably fascinated.

Somehow, my mind was suddenly filled with the traces drawn by these hands in the dark last night.

Her face suddenly turned red.

At this moment, Wu Chen's doubtful voice suddenly rang out from above his head: "Xixi."

He looked down at her with a frown, and put his palm to her forehead: "Are you feeling uncomfortable? Your face is red?"

Lin Xi quickly stopped him.

She grasped the orc's hand awkwardly, only to feel the heat in his palm scalding her. The temperature on her face was also getting hotter and hotter.

"No, probably, it's roasted over fire."
