A guide to surviving in the world of beasts

After finding suitable materials for weaving fishing nets, Su Ling led his fellow tribesmen to start weaving fishing nets. Su Ling had never weaved a fishing net before.

After thinking about it, I felt that if everyone worked together, maybe they could weave it quickly, so I drew a fishing net on the ground and asked everyone to try to weave it together to see who could weave it first.

Everyone took turns to look at the picture Su Ling drew on the ground. After looking at it, they took some hemp vines and sat aside to try to weave. Su Ling also sat down with everyone to weave.

Hu Yi couldn't help much in this matter, so he continued to lead people to pick hemp vines.

Although Su Ling had never made a story before, fortunately her mind was quick. She took it apart and made it up again. After several times, she finally got the hang of it.

With the help of several tribesmen who were good at weaving, she received a lot of ideas. After some modifications, she finally managed to weave a small piece of fishing net.

After finding the right method, Su Ling taught it to others. After everyone had learned it, she divided them into several groups and started weaving.

Five days later, three fishing nets with a length of about 30 meters were freshly produced.

The next day after the fishing net was woven, everyone got up early and brought the fishing net to the river. The ice was very thick, so Hu Yi led his men to drill holes in the ice at the selected locations.

The orcs transformed their hands into sharp claws and several people took turns to work. After more than half an hour of effort, they finally managed to chisel a hole in the thick ice.

After it was done, Hu Yi led people to drop fishing nets into three holes in the ice. Su Ling could see the schools of fish swimming underneath through the ice. It seemed that they had never been caught before, so they were so leisurely. Su Ling silently mourned for them for one second. Any more second would be disrespectful to the food.

Seeing so many fish, it seemed we didn’t have to wait too long. After about an hour, we started pulling the fishing nets back.

When they started pulling the fishing net, Hu Yi saw Su Ling standing next to the ice eye and reminded her, "Su Ling, stand further away so that the water doesn't splash on you."

"Okay, got it." Su Ling quickly trotted behind Hu Yi and the others so that she wouldn't be splashed with water, and she praised herself for her cleverness.

Su Ling stared closely at the fishing net that was being pulled up. As the fishing net was pulled out of the ice, Hu Yi and the others gradually increased the force used. Several fish tried their best to squeeze out of the fishing net, but they had just jumped onto the ice and were frozen solid by the cold temperature on the river after only a few bounces.

"Come out! Come out!"

“So many fish!”

With a loud push, the fishing nets were all pulled out of the ice, and the big, lively fish were pulled out of the ice along with the fishing nets.

People around came over to check out the fish piled up like a small mountain. It looked like there were at least several thousand kilograms of fish.

Hu Yi had just freed the fish from the fishing net, and the fish kept jumping, but they soon followed the same path as the previous fish, and were all frozen hard like bricks.

There were many varieties of fish, and Su Ling had never seen them before, but they all looked plump. When the tiger wings pulled up the fishing net.

There were people pulling up the other two fishing nets as well. Su Ling saw that the first one had been pulled up, so she went to check the other two nets. The number of nets was almost the same as the first one.

With just these three nets of fish, we won't go hungry for the rest of the cold season no matter how much we eat. This is much easier and safer than hunting. I don't know if it will be as easy to catch fish in a few more years, but we won't have to worry about food in the next few years.

After the joy, everyone took the empty baskets and carried the caught fish back to the tribe. In this kind of weather, there was no need to worry about the fish going bad. They carried the baskets of fish into the warehouse and stored them so that they could be eaten before the cold season.

Hu Xiao was in charge of registering supplies. He was excited and worried when he saw the baskets of fish being put into the warehouse. It was not because of anything else, but because orcs had an inherent impression that fish tasted bad. He was worried that Su Ling would not be able to cook the fish into delicious food.

But Hu Xiao soon realized that his worry was completely unnecessary.

By the time all the fish were brought back to the tribe, it was already afternoon. Everyone had a quick bite at noon and were waiting to see what delicious food Su Ling would cook for them in the evening.

Su Ling also saw what the tribesmen were thinking, so she assigned tasks to everyone. Some killed the fish, some cut the fish, and Su Ling went to prepare the seasoning.

I plan to first teach you how to make grilled fish and fish hotpot. Grilled fish is usually eaten spicy, but now the tribe has only found chili peppers and no peppercorns, so it can only be made spicy, but the taste should be pretty good.

The fish hotpot is made into clear soup, and a separate pot of dipping sauce is prepared. If you like spicy food, you can add some, while those who can’t eat spicy food can just eat it directly after it is cooked.

After all the ingredients were prepared, Su Ling directed the female cooks to put the marinated fish on the firewood pile and roast it. When the fish skin was crispy, they would move on to the next one and continue roasting. The females had learned cooking from Su Ling, and they were already very good at roasting meat. Now with the seasonings and marination, their skills in roasting meat were even more proficient than Su Ling's. Su Ling felt very relieved to hand over the process of roasting fish to them.

Su Ling taught others how to cook the soup. After putting the roasted fish into the big stone pot, she poured the soup into the stone pot. After cooking for a few minutes, the aroma of the fish was brought out.

Even without peppercorns, people who smell the fragrance will keep swallowing their saliva.

Fish hotpot is easy. Just cook the hotpot soup base in advance and add the fish fillets when eating. Su Ling told the recipe to the tribesmen who liked to eat hotpot, and they had already done everything by themselves, so Su Ling didn't have to do anything at all.

Unable to bear the aroma of the grilled fish that kept drilling into his nose, Hushan secretly moved to Su Ling's side and quietly asked, "Su Ling, I think it should be cooked. When can we eat it?" After saying that, he swallowed some boiling water.

After hearing Su Ling call the bony beast a fish, many people subconsciously called it fish. Su Ling looked at Hu Shan with amusement, and then looked at the other tribesmen who were secretly listening. Knowing that they were hungry and probably greedy, Su Ling smiled and nodded, "It's almost done, you can prepare it and eat it soon."

"Did you hear that? It's time to eat, everyone hurry up and get ready."

Hearing that they could eat soon, those who heard it took action without Hushan's help. Hushan looked at those who ran away with depression, but the joy of being able to eat soon swept away that little bit of depression, and he joined the army preparing for dinner.

Everyone worked quickly and prepared the food for dinner quickly.
