The Beast King's Little Wife
Chapter 017: Supplement...
This was a desolate place littered with scattered stones, and the grass was indeed withered. But there was no frost.
After inspecting the area, Lin Dujuan finally confirmed that this was a land without salt.
"No, we can only continue searching in the next area."
After visiting several places, none of them seemed like places that would produce salt.
This made even Lin Dujuan herself feel very sad.
Not to mention the other few who followed Hu Bulu.
Even if these people didn't say anything, Lin Dujuan could sense the suspicion in their eyes when they looked at her...
"Swoosh..."
Suddenly, a wild deer sped past in front of them.
Then, a few more appeared.
Lin Dujuan's spirits lifted when she saw the wild deer.
"Tiger Tooth, hurry up and take me with you. Let's follow these wild deer without disturbing them. As long as we find where these wild deer are staying, we will definitely find salt."
Hu Bulu frowned, wanting to say, "Don't bother looking. Salt isn't something you or I can easily find. After all, even people from large tribes might not have salt."
However, seeing that Huya had carried Lin Dujuan forward without saying a word and kept following the wild deer, he looked helplessly at the person beside him.
“Let’s go, Bu Luo. We’ve been injured and need to recover, and we can’t do anything else in the village anyway, so let’s just go with the wild deer and take a look,” Niya said with a chuckle.
Cao Guo nodded, "Indeed, there's nothing else to do in the village lately. Let's go take a look, just treat it as a getaway to clear our heads."
Although the wild deer in front of us ran very fast.
But Lin Dujuan still had to admit that her dog's tiger teeth were also top-notch in speed.
He carried her on his back, his tall body treading on the grass, yet he didn't make a sound.
Following these wild deer, the highly vigilant group failed to detect their presence.
The wild deer graze as they walk.
Occasionally, you might find someone by the river to drink water or something.
When the group got hungry, they ate some dry rations, like dried meat.
Three days passed quickly.
On this day, when a group of people arrived at a grove of trees that didn't look too lush, something amazing happened.
"These wild deer are actually climbing trees here!"
Wild deer can also climb trees.
If they hadn't seen it with their own eyes, Hu Bulu and his group wouldn't have believed it at all.
Lin Dujuan grinned, secretly relieved.
"My dears, look how hard they climb the tree, they're chewing fruit! And all around here, have you noticed? The grass and plants are covered with a thin layer of crystals. So..."
She kept it a secret.
However, Hu Buluo's eyes lit up. He stared intently at her and replied in a deep voice, "So, this is the salt you were talking about!"
Lin Dujuan nodded vigorously, "Yes, but to determine the final result, we still need to pick one or two of those fruits to try and confirm whether salt fruits are growing in this area."
Salted fruit, this kind of thing really exists.
In modern times, this kind of thing can also be found in some encyclopedias.
However, to Lin Dujuan's surprise, all the plants here had a layer of crystals.
In this way, she had ample reason to believe that there might be a small area of salt production underground in this region.
"Great! I never thought we'd actually find a place like this!" Niya and Caoguo, who had come along, excitedly rubbed their hands together and ran ahead.
I plucked a fruit, and with a quick squeeze, it crumbled.
"It really tastes salty, haha, the fruit here really is that kind of thing. I wonder if these trees could grow fruit like this if they were transplanted back home."
Nia stared at the trees with excitement, just like he would look at a beautiful woman.
Lin Dujuan shrugged regretfully.
"I think that once these trees are transplanted back, they will definitely mutate, and even if they eventually bear fruit, they probably won't taste salty like they do now."
Salt fruit is very particular about the soil it grows in.
The fact that salt fruits can grow here only proves that the soil in this area is suitable for their growth.
Having found the salt forest, the group was no longer in a hurry.
Tiger Buluo looked around at Tiger Fang and said, "Tiger Fang, go get some food. We'll stew it together later."
After giving the instructions, he looked at Lin Dujuan and said, "Female, you can make meat soup!"
Lin Dujuan nodded quickly, "I know how, but how do we stew it?" Without the tools, she couldn't stew it even if she wanted to.
After eating dry food and water for several days, to be honest, she had long missed stews and roasted meats.
Especially now that we've found salted fruit, just adding these ingredients makes for a delicious meat broth, paired with some wild vegetables—it makes my mouth water just thinking about it.
Hu Bulu smiled confidently and nodded to Niya and Caoguo to the side.
"You guys take care of it."
Seeing that the tiger hadn't fallen, Lin Dujuan didn't explain further and didn't ask any more questions.
"You can wander around the area, but it's best not to go too far. There are always some unpleasant things lurking in these places."
Hu Bulu casually remarked.
Lin Dujuan immediately stopped in her tracks upon hearing this.
She thought of snakes, and some poisonous moths and the like.
In this primitive society, many poisonous moths and snakes were extremely ferocious.
Moreover, they are extremely large.
Even though she had applied herbs prepared by the tribe's shaman to avoid being bitten by poisonous moths and the like, she still managed to avoid them.
"I understand." Lin Dujuan didn't dare to move again. Instead, she wandered around, trying to find any salt flats underground.
Tiger did not fall, and then he turned and disappeared.
Before long, Huya was the first to return.
This guy actually brought back a wild deer. The deer was still alive, and when Tiger Tooth put it on the ground, it actually struggled to get up.
Tiger returned just then, carrying a large rock with a hole in it. Upon seeing the wild deer, he grabbed it and stabbed it with his knife.
The leather jug took the deer blood and put it straight into his mouth.
"Female, you drink too." Lin Dujuan shivered as she looked at the bag of deer blood that Tiger Tooth handed her.
"I……"
Hu Bulu glared and said, "Here, you must learn to drink deer blood."
This is something you have to drink even if you don't want to.
Lin Dujuan opened her mouth wide after being glared at by her future father-in-law. Finally, she held her breath and took a few sips.
The fishy, pungent smell brought tears to her eyes.
"Drink it all," Tiger Tooth commanded in a low voice. He added, "The old man said this stuff is good for your health."
After finishing the drink, Lin Dujuan was stunned. "What, this is for nourishing the body?"
Tiger Tooth nodded, "That's right, deer blood is nourishing and can warm the body."
Lin Dujuan was so frightened that she jumped up on the ground.
"It's hot, so it's nourishing!"
If what Huya said is true, and deer blood is indeed nourishing and warming...
she……
She didn't dare to think any deeper because Hu Buluo gestured for her to start stewing the meat.
When the stew was halfway done, Niya and Caoguo returned. In their hands, they were carrying some wild fruit and some bird eggs…
