The Otherworldly Journey of a Quick Transmigrator

Su Yuanyuan looked at them with a serious expression, "When you start a fire, you can surround it with stones. This will make it easier to start and prevent it from being blown away by the wind and causing a fire elsewhere."

"You must pay attention to safety. If there is a fire, someone must always watch the fire and not leave it. Prepare water or sand near the fire to use for extinguishing if the fire gets out of control."

"If you need to leave, make sure the fire is completely extinguished. Remember that?"

The beastmen were startled by Su Yuanyuan's serious expression. The divine messenger had never shown such an expression before, and they took her words to heart.

Upon hearing the divine messenger's question, they all nodded hastily, saying, "Rest assured, divine messenger, we have remembered."

Seeing that even the little ones nodded, Su Yuanyuan felt relieved. She put a few more pieces of wood into the fire and picked up a small piece of meat.

"Let me show you how to grill the meat, so it doesn't burn and we can't eat it."

Upon hearing that it was food, the female's eyes immediately fixed on the piece of meat, eager to try it herself the next second.

Fox Li reached for the meat, but Su Yuanyuan stopped her, saying, "Learn how to grill it before you start. Burnt meat is poisonous."

Startled, she immediately withdrew her hand and began to watch Su Yuanyuan grill meat intently. The male beastmen exchanged glances and also started to watch and learn.

Regardless of whether it will be useful or not, since it was taught by the divine messenger, we must learn it.

That night, the orcs sat around the fire and enjoyed a delicious roasted meat, experiencing a warmth they had never felt before.

Su Yuanyuan was in agony. The little brats held her back, not letting her leave, and even shoved a large piece of unseasoned roasted meat into her mouth. Su Yuanyuan forced herself to finish the meat under their expectant gazes.

We need to find salt quickly, and hopefully other seasonings as well. One tasteless grilled meat is enough.

Fox Yu led a group of male beastmen on a hunt before dawn. Fox Li and the others prepared a day's worth of food for the elders and children of their tribe before following Su Yuanyuan into the forest.

Mushrooms have already grown again in the places she picked yesterday, and the females happily ran over to pick them.

Su Yuanyuan followed behind and watched. When they encountered poisonous mushrooms, Su Yuanyuan would explain to them why they couldn't eat them.

They soon arrived at a place with wild vegetables. Su Yuanyuan pointed to the wild vegetables on the ground and said, "These are edible, but they're not always available."

Foxy pulled it out, looked at it, took a small bite and chewed it, her expression immediately turning into one of pain.

"My angel, this tastes awful. I can't feel anything on my tongue."

Su Yuanyuan chuckled twice and went over to see what she had picked. "This wild vegetable needs to be cooked before it can be eaten. It's quite delicious when cooked with meat."

Seeing that she still looked disgusted, Su Yuanyuan rubbed her head and said, "I'll make it for you to try when we get back."

A group of females, like children, hopped around in the woods, and before they knew it, they had wandered quite a distance from their dwelling.

Su Yuanyuan's space was already filled with more than a dozen bags of mushrooms and wild vegetables, and even a lot of wild fruits.

Seeing them playing in the open space, Su Yuanyuan found a rock to sit on. Judging from their liveliness, they must not be very old, unlike her, who was already an old monster.

"Ah! Fox Autumn—"

Su Yuanyuan jumped up and went straight to Hu Li's side. "What's wrong?"

"Divine messenger, Hu Qiu has fallen, and she hasn't responded to our calls."

Fox Li pointed to a patch of grass, and Su Yuanyuan took two steps toward it before she saw a cliff. The grass there was half a person tall, and it was impossible to see unless you got close.

"You guys wait here, I'll go down and take a look."

As he spoke, he stepped onto the Frost Sword and flew down. The cliff looked quite deep from above, but it was actually only a dozen meters high.

The top of the cliff protrudes, making it appear very deep. Below it lies a small lake, and Fox Autumn fainted by its edge.

Su Yuanyuan did a quick check and found that she only had some superficial injuries; she must have fainted from fright.

Su Yuanyuan picked up Hu Qiu and prepared to go upstairs, but then she felt something was wrong with the texture of her hands. She gently put Hu Qiu on the ground and rubbed it in her hands.

She walked to the lakeside to observe for a while, then picked up some white particles from the lakeside and put them in her mouth. Her eyes immediately lit up.

This is a salt lake!

Su Yuanyuan memorized the place, then flew up with Hu Qiu in her arms, while Hu Li and the others paced anxiously back and forth on the edge of the cliff.

"Divine Messenger, is Fox Autumn alright?"

Seeing her carrying Hu Qiu up, Hu Li quickly ran over to ask, her eyes fixed on Hu Qiu.

"She's fine, she just fainted from fright. Let's go back first."

They nodded, picked up their things, and obediently followed behind Su Yuanyuan.

Fox Autumn woke up in the evening and was perfectly fine, which relieved Fox Li and the others.

When the hunting party returned in the evening, Su Yuanyuan called the leader and Hu Yu, took them to see the salt lake, and briefly explained the uses of salt to them.

"Divine messenger, how can we obtain salt?"

On the way back, Hu Yu couldn't help but ask. Su Yuanyuan frowned. She had never heard of this, but she had heard of boiling salt.

But she didn't know exactly how to cook it. "I'll take some lake water back with me and try cooking it tomorrow."

After saying that, she told the two of them to go back first, and then she went back to fill two buckets with lake water. She used the simplest method to boil the water in a pot until it was dry, to see if she could extract salt.

The next day, Hu Yu and the chief did not go hunting, but watched Su Yuanyuan boil salt with longing eyes, and even the females would come over to take a look from time to time.

As the water in the pot slowly boiled away, some small white crystals appeared on the side of the pot. Su Yuanyuan scraped off a little and tasted it.

The taste is so-so, and the grains are quite large, but it's usable. "It's fine. After the lake water is boiled dry, the white crystals on it are salt."

Fox Yu looked at her hopefully, "Divine Messenger, with salt, can food be stored for a whole winter?"

"Yes, once it's cooked enough, I'll teach you how to marinate the meat."

"Divine messenger! Divine messenger! Thank you for your favor upon the fox clan!"

Upon hearing this, the leader burst into tears of joy, almost collapsing to the ground. The others also knelt down, their faces beaming with happiness.

Foxy hugged her leg and wailed, "Thank you! Thank you! No more elderly people or children will starve to death in winter."

Su Yuanyuan quickly tried to pull them up, but they wouldn't get up at all, insisting on kowtowing several times before they would stand up.

Finally, she helplessly patted Fox Li's head. She had heard from the chief that Fox Li's beast father went out hunting when she was young and never came back.

The beast mother starved to death one winter. She left the last of the food in her house to Fox Li and survived on water alone. She did not survive the winter.

After she formed a bond with a male, she gave birth to a cub, which also starved to death in the winter.

That's why she was so excited to know that food could be preserved for a winter and that no one would starve to death anymore.

Su Yuanyuan couldn't truly empathize with her, so she could only silently comfort her and encourage her to work harder to make their lives better.
