Traveling through the world of beasts, making a living

As time passed, night soon came. Mona and the beast husbands, under the cover of the eagle beasts, quietly entered the old tribe of Silver Wolf.

Jin Jue was waiting at the door early to greet them! Mona and the beast husbands followed Jin Jue into the Silver Wolf Tribe. This place had clearly been abandoned for some time, the houses were dilapidated, and the streets were covered in dust and weeds.

However, Mona didn't care about these things. Her eyes were fixed on a huge stone house not far ahead. The stone house looked more solid than the other buildings and seemed to be the core area of the Silver Wolf Tribe.

Jin Jue pointed to the stone house and told Mona that it was their former meeting room. Mona nodded and led everyone towards the stone house.

When they pushed open the door, a stale air washed over them. Inside, there were a few simple tables and chairs, and a few ancient maps hung on the walls. Jin Yao and Mu sat on chairs, flanked by a dozen or so mermaids! Mona and the others calmly chose chairs and sat down. Mona began to think about her next plan. She remained silent. Seeing this, Long Ying didn't bother her.

"Mermaid leader Mu, and the main city lord Jin Yao. Long time no see!"

"This is our patriarch, Lord Longying!" Heisha introduced.

"I've long heard that the great patriarch is a dragon among beasts. Seeing him today, I'm sure he's truly extraordinary. I remember your letter mentioning rescuing Jin Yao. I've fulfilled my promise and brought him here! I hope your tribe will also fulfill its promise and teach us how to make charcoal and seafood, and provide the formula for refining fine salt."

"Of course. We're all the Beast God's people, and we live on the same continent. It's all good for everyone! However, teaching you how to cook seafood is a bit difficult right now. We don't have any seafood, and it's a bit far from the sea here, so it's not realistic. You know, Hui Qiang and his gang are eyeing our tribe covetously. They might attack us at any moment. To be honest, everyone in my tribe is busy preparing for war, so we don't have time for anything else!"

"Great Patriarch, are you kidding me? I have done everything as you said. The person has been brought to you, and you want to break the agreement!" Mu stood up angrily and pointed at Long Ying with one hand.

"Chief Mu, don't be so anxious. My tribe values our promises, and we never go back on our word. While I can't teach you seafood, I can still make it from Hanoi. The recipes are pretty similar! I'll let you learn this first! Here, this is the recipe for making fine salt. You'll understand after you take a look."

Mona casually handed over a piece of animal skin, and Mu Xin took it and was stunned. This painting was too good, you can understand it at a glance, from drying the sea water as the first step to making fine salt as the last step. The painting was realistic and easy to understand, even a cub would be able to make fine salt after seeing it. Mu realized that what he said just now was a bit too hasty.

"I'm sorry, Chief. I thought you would break the agreement, so I spoke without thinking. Okay, let's do as the little female said and learn to cook Hanoi food first."

"Chief Mu, she is our female and also the witch of our Ten Thousand Beasts Tribe. Please be careful with your words!" Several beastmen stood up and walked behind Mona.

Mu was dumbfounded again. This weak and helpless female was actually the legendary witch. Looking at this posture...

"Sorry! Everyone! I'm really sorry. I thought you witches were extremely wise and should be the elders of the tribe. I didn't expect you to be so young, beautiful and outstanding. It's my fault for being short-sighted!" Mu clasped his hands together and saluted!

Seeing this, the beastmen's lips curled up, and even those who hadn't transformed into beasts could feel their tails wagging. Mona smiled and waved her hand, indicating that Mu didn't need to apologize. She knew that mermaids, like beastmen, were straightforward and bold, and didn't mince words.

"Bixi, come here!"

Bixi moved closer briskly. Mona, Mona whispered something in his ear, and Bixi's eyes changed, and his eyebrows twitched with joy.

"Got it. I'll be back soon, Wushuang, Qingli, we'll be together."

Bixi called out to the other two brothers. Wushuang and Qingli glanced at Na, and seeing her nod slightly, they immediately followed Bixi's footsteps!

Everyone was confused, not knowing what Mona was up to. But everyone was tactful enough not to ask, and just sat there quietly waiting.

"Everyone, please wait a moment. I will give you a surprise!"

Mu nodded and said, "Just listen to the witch." Jin Yao curled his lips to himself. She was just a female, but she really thought she could go to heaven.

Bixi and his companions ran to the river. Because of the continuous wind and snow day and night, the river surface was covered with thick ice. Bixi followed Na's teachings to chisel holes in the ice and catch fish. The three orcs had never done this before. They were too excited and filled seven or eight baskets before stopping.

"Mona, we are back!" The three of them entered the conference room, put down seven or eight baskets of fish, and happily ran to Mona to ask for credit!

"Well done, you three should eat more later!"

"Eat? Are you kidding me?" Jin Yao jumped up from his chair in shock. "This fish is full of bones. It can choke you to death. Besides, it tastes fishy and bitter!"

"Shut up! Stop talking nonsense!" Jin Jue mocked mercilessly!

"Wu, this is what you call a surprise. Don't startle people. It would be bad if someone died!"

"Don't worry, Chief Mu. We will eat the food first and only eat it if it doesn't poison you!" Mona said cunningly.

Heisha and Huiziran knew how to handle the fish, and they and Bixi completed it easily. Meanwhile, Chiyan and Jinjue had already started the charcoal and set up the grill. Longying placed the fish on the grill and slowly turned it.

"Chief Mu, we have started making Hanoi food now. Whether you believe it or not, please take a look at the steps first. I'm afraid we won't have time to teach you later." Mona stood up and walked to a table.

On the table were some unprocessed ingredients, fish, and tools. Mona explained their uses and cooking methods one by one. She explained in great detail, and Mu and his men listened attentively.

Time passed, and in the blink of an eye, it was already noon. Mona asked everyone to take a break and try some Hanoi food she had prepared in advance. Charcoal grilled fish!

More than a dozen grilled fish were brought up, golden in color and fragrant. The beastmen didn't care. Longying picked a big and fat one for Mona, and then took one for himself. The other beastmen were not far behind, including Heisha and Huida. Everyone was chewing on their own, and the sound of swallowing food was everywhere. No one paid attention to Mu and Jin Yao and their companions.

"Is it really that delicious? Heisha!" Mu asked Heisha curiously, because he had the most contact with Heisha and he never lied.

Heisha didn't answer, but just nodded, which made Mu even more curious. He reached out and took a grilled fish, tore some fish meat with his hands, and carefully put it into his mouth. He took two sips, looking ready to die. Suddenly, his eyes lit up and he said loudly

"Oh my god! It's delicious, come and try it!"

The mermaids carefully picked up one of the fish, and imitated their leader, tearing off a piece of fish meat and tasting it lightly, followed by a swallowing sound. Jin Yao also tasted it out of curiosity, and this time he couldn't stop!

After tasting it, everyone praised it highly. Mu expressed his sincere gratitude to Mona and promised to learn how to make it as soon as possible and bring it back to the tribe to teach others.
