Traveling through the world of beasts, making a living

The orcs of the Eagle Clan looked at this happy scene and would be lying if they didn't envy them, but the flying beasts had a sense of superiority that made them unable to let go of their pride, so they stood there in a daze, unable to move forward or retreat.

Rouhe Hongshang immediately stood up, each holding the arm of a female, walked into the crowd, and introduced to them how to peel the seeds and save the seeds of the catkin. The other females also stood up with a smile and taught them how to make the catkin fluffy and compact it to make the required quilts. Soon, the female Eagles adapted to this atmosphere, and everything went according to plan and smoothly.

Mona gathered the old beasts in the square, lit a bonfire, and asked the old beastmen in the tribe to teach them how to cook, steaming buns and boiling noodles. The old beasts of the Eagle Tribe were shocked. These were all the food for females and cubs! Could the Ten Thousand Beast Tribe be so wealthy?

"Don't be surprised, old friends. We eat this every day. Look, do I still look like an old beast? I think I can go hunting too. But the witch said everyone has their own duties. We old beasts have also contributed to the tribe. Just wait, I'll be back soon."

A sharp and high-pitched eagle cry came from afar, and a goshawk landed in the square, carrying two large wild boars on its back, with a live long-eared rabbit and a cuckoo tied to its claws respectively.

"Come and help me, I'm being crushed to death!" The hawk orc gasped.

"Here we go, here we go, old fellows, let's get to work!"

The two orcs untied the living creatures, tied the long-eared rabbit's feet with a rope, cut off the cuckoo's wings with a sharp knife, and then carried it to the herbivorous tribe's enclosure.

The other two orcs untied the wild boar, pulled it up on a trailer and ran towards the stream. The Eagle orcs looked at each other in confusion, wondering what was going on!

"My fellow Eagles, follow me. I'll show you a different way of dealing with wild beasts."

A group of people followed them, and the ones left behind were the old orcs in the tribe, who seemed to be waiting for something.

Another eagle cry was heard, and it landed in the square. The old beastmen divided the work and took care of the animals that needed to be kept and those that needed to be processed. This cycle continued, and their efficiency was surprisingly good.

The old orc who was dealing with wild beasts by the stream was called Uncle Gu. He was also a hero in the past, but he injured his leg during the beast tide and retired to the second line due to his old age. However, his neat knife skills convinced the beasts.

"Let me tell you, the whole beast is edible, including its internal organs."

"You're kidding! We eagles aren't picky about our food, and we can't stomach offal either."

"The witch taught us how to wash and cook it. I'll give you a taste at noon, and you'll see how much we used to eat!"

The Eagle orcs received the wild beasts one after another and started to work on them. They stacked the meat neatly on carts one after another, and also loaded the heads, limbs and internal organs on two carts.

The underage cubs and Mona waited in the kiln, where dozens of pottery jars were lined up side by side. As several old beastmen brought in processed wild animal meat, Mona instructed the cubs to rub salt on each piece and place it neatly in the pottery jars.

At first, everyone knew salt was precious. Several tribes had only pooled a small bag, so they were hesitant to collect it, fearing that a single grain would be wasted. Unexpectedly, the witch had several jars of salt, and with the blessing of the beast god, salt freedom was achieved.

When discussing with Long Ying last night, Mona had already logged into the system and exchanged 200 kilograms of coarse salt, which was specially used for pickling meat. This pottery kiln can be used to smoke meat. Ahaha, what a talent.

Mona was very happy to see that the kids were doing well.

"Hey kids, I'll call you when it's time for dinner. Work hard and smoke the meat tonight so it can be stored until the end of the snow season! Whether we have meat to eat during the snow season depends entirely on you."

After saying this, Mona winked mischievously, causing all the little animals to blush and their hearts to beat faster, and they applied the salt even faster.

Mona looked up at the sky. It was noon, and she had to go to the square to prepare lunch. A good meal would give her the energy to work. Suddenly, she remembered the slogan about eating in the modern cafeteria: "If you're not active while eating, there's something wrong with your brain!" Oh! ...

Bixi carried Mona to the square at a leisurely pace. After several bonfire parties, Mona discovered that these old beasts all had the potential to be modern chefs. As long as the seasonings were right, they could prepare a full banquet for you.

Roasted whole lamb, cuckoo birds, long-eared rabbits, even grilled fish; stir-fried: ears, intestines, hearts, livers, kidneys, spare ribs; stewed: beast heads, limbs, tails; steamed: cuckoo bird eggs, buns, dumplings; boiled: ground nut with bone broth and white rice. Fried: natural lard residue, ground nut mixed with gray rice flour (wheat flour). The whole tribe, no, the whole Valley of Love, emanated the enchanting aroma of food.

Ruirui and Mengmeng were like two greedy gluttons, one moment to the east, the next to the west. One hand had just torn off a bird's leg, and the other hand had grabbed some greasy residue! The two siblings were eating with great joy, and the other animals were doting and respectful. "Two young clan leaders, go slowly, be careful of the burns."

"Thank you, Beast Grandpas, I know!" He took another bite of the chicken leg.

Mona asked Bixi to ring the bell. After three rings, people came to the square one after another. The old beast team, the female team, the cub team, and the male team all lined up in the corresponding areas. The hunting team was brought back by the people who delivered the food!

A grand modern buffet unfolded, upholding the fine tradition of respecting the elderly and cherishing the young. The elders took the lead, selecting the appropriate food for their own bowls. The elderly orcs of the Eagle Tribe were stunned. In their previous tribes, no, as far back as they could remember, the elderly orcs had to eat leftovers, even eating snow during the snowy season, just to survive. But here, the elderly orcs were treated with courtesy and respect, and they sincerely thanked Chief Yu for the alliance. Tears welled up in their eyes, and they were filled with gratitude and thanks from the bottom of their hearts.

It was the turn of the old orc of the Eagle Clan. Looking at the dazzling array of food, he didn't know where to start. It was Uncle Gu who made an example and said, "Everyone, take whatever you want to eat. Just don't waste it." After hearing Uncle Gu's words, the orc of the Eagle Clan also learned to pick food in an orderly manner.

The youngsters, it was their turn, headed for the roasted cuckoo birds, each enjoying one, giggling and saying they were delicious and would try something else next time. The females, on the other hand, preferred more hearty flavors, opting for bamboo rice and stir-fried vegetables. The large plates of offal were almost gone. The males, however, were impatient, saying, "Leave some for me! No, it's all gone!" Everything was going well.

Mona and the beast husbands stood at the altar and laughed heartily at the grand spectacle before them.

"Lady Witch, all the clan leaders, thank you for bringing sufficient food and resources to the tribe, so that our old ones can rely on us and our young ones can be raised." Uncle Gu saluted with a clenched fist.

"This is my responsibility. The tribe will only grow stronger, and our lives will get better and better. Of course, this is inseparable from the hard work of each and every one of you. At the end of the cold season, I hope everyone will prepare all the food and charcoal to prepare for the snow season!"
