In the next few days, the two of them kept preparing wood for the rainy season and digging holes, except for collecting wild vegetables that could be dried and stored. Lu Bing originally suggested that Maxine bring more prey when he went back in the morning and at noon, but Maxine said that the rainy season does not rain all day, and there will be a few hours of rain every day. time.

After getting this news, Lu Bing didn't know what to say, there were too many unreasonable things here. For example, the temperature during the ice and snow season is mostly kept between minus 40 and 60 degrees. According to the distribution of plants on the earth, this place should be dominated by coniferous forests, but based on his experience and knowledge in the forest these months, he told him that this place is Temperate, that is, mixed forests of conifers and broadleaves.

There are still seven days before the arrival of the rainy season estimated by Maxine. In addition to the front hall with a width of 10 meters and a length of 10 meters, the promenade behind the cave also dug out six caves that are also 10 meters long and 6 meters wide. Food storage is now filled with dry wood and recently treated dry-season animal skins, large quantities of sun-dried mushrooms, fungus and dried vegetables.

Before the rainy season comes, the sun in the sky is also swaying its last and hottest rays, and the little moisture in the forest is also evaporated under the noon sun. Maxine and Lu Bing sat in the depths of the cave hall and ate cold watermelon to quench their thirst. The two had just returned from the forest, except for some wild vegetables, peppers, prey and wood. Their biggest harvest early in the morning was to find a nest of stinging bees. Lu Bing thought about eating honey after seeing the thumb-sized bee in the foreign world, which was the smallest bee in the foreign world that Maxine said. The two of them followed the worker bees who went out to collect honey all the way to the densest forest in a nearby highland. Looking at the purple spruce which is at least a hundred meters high and can only be surrounded by a dozen adult orcs, Lu Bing was drooling after listening to Maxine's report after the investigation. The entire branch of the purple spruce is a nest of needle bees , How much honey does this have to have.

It's almost noon when Maxine doesn't want Lu Bing to be outside anymore. It can be said that even the strongest orcs can't get dizzy in this weather, let alone ordinary females who are more delicate With Maxine's guarantee, Lu Bing had no choice but to agree to wait for the two of them to come over to fetch honey after the sun was west in the afternoon.

After eating the watermelon in a hurry to quench his thirst, Lu Bing instructed Maxine to cook soup and grill himself, while squatting in the stone pots and wooden barrels that had just been made, picking out suitable containers for honey. After several days of processing, there are six stone pots of three kinds with a minimum diameter of 60 centimeters and 1.2 to 2 meters. There are 20 large wooden barrels of about 1.5 meters that are simply planed and unpainted. A total of 32 of the 12 completed. The reason why Lu Bing asked Maxine to do so much was because the water in the river was undrinkable after the rainy season began, and even after the rainy season, it would have to settle for several days before it could be used. After a simple calculation, Lu Bing dragged out an empty wooden bucket reluctantly, while comforting himself. "If you make a lot of honey, you can't finish it. Even if it's a breeding base."

After finding out the wooden barrels to be used, Lu Bing began to sort out the fruits of his labor in the morning, separated all the wild vegetables, and took them outside to expose them to the sun. Bing walked back covered in sweat and took his torn towel to take a bath near the outside of the cave. The sticky feeling prevented Lu Bing from noticing that Maxine's eyes had been staring at his body in underwear. Maxine felt that his breathing and heartbeat were too high to be restrained, so he reluctantly turned his head and continued to process the food at noon today, smashing his mouth, Maxine reminded himself that Lu Bing hadn't promised to combine with him. hastily.

The weather is too hot now, even if they stay in a shady cave, the two of them are lazy and don't want to move much. Maxine lay on the bamboo mat that Lu Bing had spent two nights weaving, watching Lu Bing drowsy, wondering whether the recent medicinal materials were enough. The rainy season is humid and there is no daily supply of medicinal materials. Everyone will get sick. Thinking of this, Maxine can't lie down. Get up carefully and walk away. Take the cave with wooden barrels, stone pots and other sundries. They will be placed in the stone pots and have been dried and sorted. The good medicinal materials were taken out and counted, and after seeing that they were almost the same, he was satisfied and returned to Lu Bing's side, stood quietly for a while, and then left.

When Lu Bing took a nap and stretched himself, he didn't feel the cold and stiff Maxine around him, so he opened his eyes, got up and walked along the sound of the water. Maxine was sitting on a stone bench cleaning the fur that had been soaked in the past few days. Behind him was a pile of tanned, dried and combed fur that was ready to be piled up in caves. The orc's hearing is excellent, and Maxine knew it when Lu Bing got up. When Lu Bing came to him, Maxine raised his head and pointed at the cold fruit soaked in the water basin, saying, "Eat a little."

Lu Bing took out two green fruits that tasted like two big apple fists, one was bitten by himself and the other was stuffed into Maxine's mouth. After a crisp click sound, Maxine bit off half of the green fruits including the core. Lu Bing just took two bites. After Maxine finished eating Lubing, he continued to feed the remaining half to Maxine. The alternative version of you took a bite and I took a bite. After eating more than a dozen berries, Lubing ate two and the rest went into Maxine's stomach. Maxine's face was paralyzed, and his heart was full of joy.

Tanning animal skins is very troublesome. Fresh ones need to be washed before soaking, soaked ones need to be turned over and filled with water, and soaked ones need to be washed before being sent out to dry. Lu Bing watched Maxine do it faster than himself, shrugged and ran outside the cave to see how the wild vegetables and medicinal materials were drying at noon. He saw that the wild vegetables and medicinal materials had all dried in just two hours. Lu Bing lamented that at this time, the desert was indeed bigger than the Sahara Desert. The temperature on the slabs must have been ten degrees, and he had no interest in grilling meat. Lu Bing turned back to the cave and pulled out rattan and bamboo slices. Ready to rework some utensils.

When the sun was setting, Maxine had taken back the wild vegetables, medicinal materials and dried furs, and flew to the highland where the honey was found with the prepared road ice and wooden barrels. Along the way, the two of them stared at the sky and the forest intently. Now is the time for wild beasts to prey, and they will confess here if they are not careful. Fortunately, this time the two of them arrived under the purple spruce tree without any trouble along the way.

Lu Bing took out the peppers and insect repellent grass, stuffed them into fresh leaves and tied them to make torches. He made three in a row and handed them to Maxine who was aside. Maxine applied the concoction of insect repellent herb on her body and transformed into the second form. She reached out to Lu Bing who had also applied the concoction and lit a tree standing quietly under the tree. Lu Bing handed the torch to Maxine. "Be careful, I'll come down soon."

"Okay. Be careful, too." Maxine held a torch in one hand and an empty bucket in the other, carefully looked around, and then took a deep look at Lu Bing and flew up. Looking up without blinking his eyes, Maxine lit the other two torches, threw one out, and held the other in his hand to drive away the stinging bees that wanted to rush over. Both of them waited quietly for a while. After almost all the flying stinging bees had left, Maxine leaned on the wooden barrel on the branch under one of the exits and stretched out his free hand to break off the honeycombs in the tree hole piece by piece and throw them into the wooden barrel.

Lu Bing watched the bees squeezed out of the purple spruce, and they didn't dare to get close to Maxine because of the pungent smell. They circled around within two meters of Maxine, and the sound of flapping wings was so loud that the ground didn't have to worry about being stung. Lu Bing was very upset. Lu Bing, who was waiting anxiously, soon greeted Maxine who was rushing towards him with a wooden barrel. Lu Bing happily opened his hands and hugged Maxine's neck while taking over the torch. The two of them flew into the sky very quickly. The flying bees quickly chased after them.

"Let's go. This torch won't last long." After confirming that Lu Bing hugged him tightly, Maxine sped away and flew a swarm of bees in the sky for a long time. After being so lively, even those huge flying birds dared not come over and meet their eyes. Petite bees go head-to-head. It wasn't until the silver moon came out that the bee, who had been chasing the two thieves for a long time and almost got lost, turned back reluctantly.

Maxine, who survived the catastrophe, put the road ice down on an empty hill, turned into a beast shape, and hurried back to the cave with the road ice and the honey on his claws. Some Lu Bing, who had survived the catastrophe, circled around the honey, and from time to time, they would dip their fingers in the honey and eat it with a small smile. Turning around, Lu Bing hugged the barrel and said to Maxine: "I'll give you barbecue later, it's definitely better than the one with mushroom powder."

Maxine, who looked at Lu Bing indulgently, pulled out a faint smile Looking at Lu Bing with a mysterious smile on his face, he replied, "Okay. I'll go out and get some prey back, and the ones are all dried at noon."

"En. Be careful." Lu Bing looked at the sky outside worriedly. After speaking to Maxine, Maxine blinked and reached out to touch Lu Bing's cheek, almost turning Lu Bing's face in shame, then turned and left. Lu Bing didn't know what was going on, he always felt that Maxine was more and more fond of touching him, but every time he felt awkward and wanted to push away, he often couldn't keep up with it. Lu Bing didn't want to be raped at all, so he had to get away with it every time. Looking at the beehive beside him, he remembered that he hadn't squeezed out the honey yet, so he was in a daze. After tidying up his emotions, the only thing Lu Bing can tell himself is to watch the time. Lu Bing had never seen how to squeeze out honey, so he could only hold the sweet and greasy honeycomb piece by piece and squeeze it into a new wooden barrel beside him. When Maxine came back, Lu Bing only squeezed out half of the honeycomb.

"I'm back." Seeing that Maxine came back safely, Lu Bing couldn't help giving him a big smile. Maxine's golden eyes became darker after seeing Lu Bing's smile. "Well, there are porcupines and vermilion birds at night. Lu, how do you do it?"

Lu Bing reluctantly washed off the honey all over his hands, then stood by the bucket and glanced at the vermilion bird. How all the feathers were pulled out by Maxine. Lu Bing saw that the vermilion bird was not as big as a goose on earth, but the porcupine often had plenty of food. "Maxine cut the vermilion bird into pieces and put them in hot water for a while, let's roast the wild boar."

Maxine nodded and opened the lid of the stone pot, but he took the bone knife and just gently withdrew his hands a few times before turning a vermilion bird . Tear the bird into small pieces, boil it in boiling water, hold it, Lu Bing said he made a wooden colander, scoop up all the vermilion bird meat and put it in a large wooden basin on the side, pour out the water in the stone pot, add water to the meat and put it in again The soup is finished with peppers and washed and dried mushrooms. Roasting the porcupine is even simpler. Maxine puts the porcupine on the fire and roasts it for a while, then adds dried mushrooms and chili powder to it, turning it over from time to time.

"Maxine, come over here and bring some honey to smear on the barbecue." Lu Bing called out to Maxine when the barbecue was halfway through. Maxine got up and came over. First, he took a look at the honeycomb that was almost squeezed out, and then he took Lu Bing and spooned honey into a small wooden bowl and sat back in front of the grill.

The barbecue was still hot but not yet cooked, Lu Bing only remembered this when Maxine's expression remained unchanged and he dipped his hand in honey to smear it. Lu Bing hurriedly touched the honey in his hands and ran to Maxine with lumps of honeycombs, and said with a little distress: "The barbecue is so hot now, it will swell later and see what you will do. Take this It 's better to dip it in honey than to use your hands."

When Lu Bing looked down at Maxine's hands, Maxine, who was staring at the back of Lu Bing's head, pulled out a very secret smile. "It's okay. Orcs have thick skin and can't be burned."

Looking up at Maxine with dissatisfaction, Lu Bing stuffed the large plate containing the honeycomb into Maxine's arms and said viciously: "Sure enough, the skin is thick enough. The walls are gone."

After Lu Bing finished speaking, he turned back to the wooden barrel and continued to squeeze out the remaining honeycombs. Maxine smiled. The angry Lu Bing turned his head and took a bone knife to draw a few more strokes on the thick meat. Mushroom powder and chili powder And honeycomb dipped in honey to coat the roast. After adding honey, the aroma of the barbecue became more and more fragrant, and Maxine's saliva overflowed his mouth. After going back and forth several times like this, when Lu Bing squeezed all the honeycombs and washed his hands and sat opposite Maxine, Maxine felt that the meat on the outside was almost cooked, so he sprinkled fine salt grains and turned it over a few times to turn off the fire below.

To be honest, Lu Bing felt that sitting and eating by the fire in summer was a kind of torture, which was as cruel as the top ten tortures of the Qing Dynasty. Eating the barbecue meat sliced ​​by Maxine, Lu Bing felt jealous of Maxine, who was a cold-blooded snake and didn't sweat. Why am I not. . .
