Chapter 97: Fudge

The old friends met each other and had a good chat, with the help of systematic language function, after listening to Wu Ge speak dwarf language for a while, Wu Nuo was able to act as an interpreter for him gradually, translating his words to Da Wu and Bai Ting.


The dwarves had a hard time walking, eating and sleeping on the road. Talking about the dangers they encountered on the road and the dead clansmen, Wu Ge and Dole wept several times, which was very pitiful.

Sadness is indeed sad, but Wu Ge's tears are more or less sympathetic. Dwarves are naturally straightforward and not good at acting. I saw his intention.

Seeing Wu Quan wiping away his tears, looking more sad than himself, Wu Ge felt more and more in his heart that his old friend was still the same as when he was young, kind, benevolent and enthusiastic. He wanted the dwarves to rely on the Changhe tribe to take root and develop. can be realised!

Wu Quan was also thinking that Wu Ge hadn't changed for so many years, and he had all his thoughts on his face as before. It shouldn't be difficult to subdue them and get them to make divine (iron) weapons.

Each had their own goals, and they all felt that their respective goals could be achieved. Wu Nuo, the interpreter, became more and more competent. Naturally, Wu Quan and Wu Ge chatted more and more happily, and before they knew it, it was time for dinner in the evening.

Now that there are too many people in the tribe, there is no way for so many people to get together to eat a big pot of rice. After finishing work in the afternoon, they all go home and eat their own food.

The dug up white sweet potatoes naturally became everyone's staple food. When the beast tide returned, Bai led the soldiers to slaughter hundreds of dragon beasts. After the meat of these dragon beasts was marinated with blood salt, some of them were made into bacon and dried in a cool and ventilated place. Some of them are made into bacon or dried meat and put in jars and stored in the cellar. When eating, wash off the excess pickling on the top, or directly boil or stir-fry or stew with white sweet potatoes, how delicious it is.

The harvest season is very busy. After harvesting the front feet, the rear feet have to quickly plant the leftovers on the newly opened wasteland, so as to harvest another crop before the cold winter. In order to free up more manpower to work and live close to a well-connected family, two or three women are often left to cook at home, and when the others finish their work, they gather to eat together, saving time and effort. It can be regarded as a big pot meal in disguise.

Shuisha is a disciple of Dawu. In addition to studying and doing things with Dawu, she also has to take care of Dawu's diet and daily life. She learned a lot of cooking skills from Wu Nuo one after another, and learned that Dawu has a very important old friend coming today. , called two young slave girls to help her, tossed in the kitchen for a long time, and made a lot of specialty dishes.

Compared with Wu Nuo's craftsmanship, she only learned five points at most, but to Wu Nuo, those dishes are not very good in color and flavor, but to others, especially the dwarves who have never eaten these dishes To put it simply, it is a delicacy.

Dwarves often eat barbecue, but they have never eaten barbecue with honey, chili and other mixed spices. The fat and tender Lila beast meat is roasted golden, and the whole beast is put on the plate. The unique and strong meat flavor of Lila beast Mixed with the seasoning, with the sizzling sound of skin oil, the fragrance rushed from the nose to the forehead, and the saliva flooded uncontrollably like a flood breaking a bank.

Although Shuisha's skill in cooking is not as good as Wu Nuo's, his skill in grilling meat is definitely not inferior to Wu Nuo's.

In addition to this roasted lila, Shuisha also made a whole roasted lamb. The fat and tender horned lamb is especially delicious. After roasting, it is placed on a huge plate and placed in the center of the wooden table. Can't look away.

Stewed meat bird with white sweet potato, stewed haggis with long melon, sprinkled with a layer of finely chopped green peppers and hot peppers, stir-fried meat bird into the water, ruddy and clear cured dragon meat, steamed whitebait, and fried white sweet potato Three shreds of salad leaves, wild vegetables and fine vermicelli, and finally a sauerkraut vermicelli soup.

Large plates and bowls full of dishes were set up on a large table, Wu Ge once again refreshed his understanding of the wealth of the Changhe Tribe, as for Dole, his eyes were straightened when he looked at the table full of dishes, and he secretly sucked his saliva countless times, I can't wait to pick up the plates and pour them into my mouth one by one.

However, as a guest in an unfamiliar environment, how can you do whatever you want?

Wu Ge and Dole, who suddenly became restrained because of the big table, carefully followed Da Wu to the yard to wash their hands, and then returned to the table to sit down again.

The two of them had a lot of jokes before they barely learned to use chopsticks. Wu Ge is getting older, and his stomach is not as good as when he was young. Compared with barbecue and spicy dishes, he prefers stewed vegetables, and he especially likes meat stewed in water and sand. Congee, thick and fragrant meat porridge, he drank two full bowls, and also ate a lot of stewed meat birds and steamed small whitebait.

Dole is young and likes to eat meat. Although he is not as tall as Wu Nuo, his appetite is much bigger than Wu Nuo. He ate two three-jin Lila beasts and a whole leg of lamb. One-third of the large plate of preserved dragon meat went into his stomach, and he also ate all kinds of other dishes, and his appetite was not inferior to the five big and three thick pure human warriors in the tribe.

After eating and drinking enough, Da Wu took Wu Ge and Dole to the tribe for a stroll to digest food.

Now that they are not in a hurry anymore, and Wu Nuo accompanied them to give them an explanation, Wu Ge and Dole now understand the situation of the Changhe Tribe better, and the envy in their eyes has accumulated more and more.

Since he intends to subdue the dwarves, Wu Nuo, in the process of explaining, will intentionally or unintentionally reveal to them the situation of the external fall to the Changhe tribe. At the same time, he also deliberately increases the difficulty of living around the black forest, adding fuel to the tragedy of last year's cold winter tell them both.

Wu Ge didn't want Wu Quan to be so conscientious, he wanted to place the tribe in this area wholeheartedly, and when he heard that the winter conditions here were worse than the forest where they temporarily stayed, he couldn't help but start beating his heart.

In case this year's cold winter is worse than last year, and there are so many tribes around, what will they do for the dwarves? From the beginning of fleeing to the present, more than half of the clansmen have been injured, but they can't stand any toss. Don't toss to the end, it's worse than being a slave.

Worried in his heart, Wu Ge was not as excited as when he first found the Changhe Tribe. He followed Wu Quan and wandered in the tribe until dark, but was stayed by Wu Quan and lived with him temporarily.

Dole went to the tribe with Bai and Wu Nuo. Bai had arranged for food to be delivered to them a long time ago. Now they are all full and settled down in the outskirts of the Changhe Tribe temporarily.

Almost everyone in the dwarves had seen Bai, and the dwarves were very impressed with this powerful orc. Seeing him coming with Dole, everyone's hearts were completely relieved.

Domu hurriedly went up to greet him, seeing that Wu Nuo could understand their dwarf language, and at the same time he was also a disciple of the great witch power, he was surprised at first and then excited.

After exchanging pleasantries, Bai and Domu reached a consensus. He allowed the dwarves to temporarily live in the outskirts of the Changhe Tribe. At the same time, he hired the dwarves to help the tribe with farm work. He would give them some food as appropriate as a reward.

The dwarves had just arrived, and they were completely ignorant of the surrounding situation. They were hoping that someone could help them, and Bai offered to offer it. Domu and the other dwarves were so grateful that they couldn't even mention it.

The dwarves are straightforward by nature and have a clear distinction between love and hate. They seem to have regarded the cunning Bai Damiao as the benefactor of the whole clan. They enthusiastically dragged him to chat until midnight, and almost sold out their old background. Fortunately, they still remembered the disasters that the ironware brought to the tribe, as well as the usual warnings from the great witch, so they refrained from mentioning the ironware, but they had no idea that the first day Bai saw them, the ironware was the first It was exposed for a while.

If it weren't for their method of smelting iron, Bai Damiao would not be willing to waste the time with his little envoy, going around in circles with these short and stupid guys.

Wu Nuo was much more patient than Bai Damiao, especially when I heard that they had brought a lot of seeds unique to the original tribal resident. Among these seeds, one of the seeds was probably one of the tasks given to him by the system at the beginning. Immediately asked them to show him, but finally restrained.

Everything will be discussed after the dwarves are subdued.

This is not only related to the iron smelting skills in their hands, but also related to the new mandatory tasks given by the system.

Similar to the previous mandatory task of subduing the big stone tribe, subduing these dwarves also has rewards ranging from 10-50 points, plus a chance to draw a lottery.

After the cold winter until now, Wu Nuo has done more than ten series of exploration tasks, all of which are small tasks with few points and meager rewards, but now this task of subduing the dwarves is the first one he received after the cold winter System mandatory tasks. Now there are only more than 500 dwarves left. Although this number is far from being compared with the original Dashi tribe, mosquitoes are still meat no matter how small they are. !

Since receiving the task, these five short, short, fat and strong dwarves have become a series of walking points in Wu Nuo's eyes, and they have become cute for no reason.

The only fly in the ointment is that the system has a very tight time limit this time and only gave him 20 days.

With such a harsh environment in the cold winter, it took some time to subdue the Dashi tribe. Now the outside environment is not a little bit better than before. Even if the dwarves leave the Changhe tribe, there will be no risk of extinction in a short period of time. Therefore, Wu Nuo Don't dare to make extravagances, everything is based on completing the mandatory tasks first.

After Bai and Domu reached a consensus, they sent someone over early the next morning to take them to work in the white sweet potato field.

Although Bai didn't know that Wu Nuo had a new mission, but his purpose was to subdue the dwarves as soon as possible and obtain the method of forging god (iron) weapons in their hands, so he specially arranged for these dwarves to join Changhe after the cold winter. The inhabitants of the tribe work together.

Dwarves are naturally cheerful and talkative, and their brains are generally good. They can grow food before, and they can quickly get started with simple farm work. After working, it is natural to communicate with other people. body language. The people on the Changhe Tribe have all received orders from above to try to communicate more with the dwarves. One is enthusiastic and the other is caring. Everyone dances and gestures, and occasionally learns each other's language. Slowly, they will be able to Had some simple exchanges.

Wu Ge lived in Dawu's place for a few days, and asked to return to the station. He and Domu received information from the tribe every day, and their faces became more and more ugly every day.

The living environment here is far worse than they imagined. Not to mention that the cold winter here is much more terrifying than where they used to live. Even if the Changhe Tribe is willing to help them, they are also willing to give them white sweet potato seeds. There are only more than 500 people in the area, and those tribes with thousands of people will be destroyed in the cold winter. What do they compare with those tribes that have taken root in the Black Forest for many years?

It's really cold winter, they are afraid that they will be destroyed faster than those tribes!

Thinking about the inhumane Hanyan tribe and other cannibal tribes, I really shudder.

What should we do now?

Knowing that the dwarves had been frightened, Bai quickly re-arranged the dwarves to work with the people of the Dashi tribe.

Compared with talking about the tragedy of the cold winter, the people of the Dashi tribe prefer to talk about miracles, holy beasts, and beautiful angels... During this day-to-day chat, Wu Ge and Domu's faces are getting better every day.

Seeing that there are still two days until the deadline for the task, Wu Nuo is hesitating whether to think of a way to give the dwarves a powerful medicine, but Wu Ge and Domu come to them on their own initiative, determined to join the Changhe tribe.

Other problems are fine, the different beliefs of the two tribes is indeed a big problem.

The tribes on the Black Forest side all believe in the beast gods, and then their respective ancestors.

The dwarves believed in the god of fire and their ancestors. Their great witches were born to gather firepower to drive different fires, but they did not have the ability to listen to the natural language of orcs.

In Wu Nuo's view, these are likely to be caused by the genetic differences of the innate ethnic group, but in the view of the dwarves, and even witch power, it is caused by different beliefs.

In order to survive, the dwarves can abandon the totem of the tribe like the Dashi tribe, but they cannot abandon their belief in Vulcan.

Things are at an impasse again.

Wu Nuo suddenly realized, how can the points in the system be so easy to earn?

It's time to test his debating (god) talent (stick) ability.

Wu Nuo persuaded the big witch first, and then found Wu Ge and Domu, and said to them in the dwarf language with the same set of arguments: "...I come from the Yanhuang tribe, which is very large, and there are people who believe in beast gods." , People who also believe in Vulcan and other gods, everyone believes in their own main gods, but I don't know if you have heard of it, there is a creator god on top of the main god...

All gods are father gods At the beginning of life, God the Father woke up in the chaos. He tore apart the chaos with his hands and created the planet we live in now

... He felt that this planet was too deserted, so he turned into gods with divine power...

... ...Father God exhausted his divine power and fell into a deep sleep. The gods imitated Father God and created us according to their own ideas...

...The God of Beasts is responsible for killing, the God of Fire is responsible for destruction, the God of Earth is responsible for the growth of all things, and the Goddess of Life Longevity of the Secretary...

...the gods live in the domain of gods, and only good people can return to the embrace of their respective gods after death...

...it is not wrong to believe in any god, because we are indeed children of different gods, but all They are close brothers and sisters. As long as they believe in the Father God together, they will not mind their offspring living with the offspring of their brothers and sisters..."

Wu Nuo runs through ancient and modern China and foreign countries. The myths and legends of the past, the Western fantasy novels I read when I grew up, and some rumors of this world were filled in appropriately, and I racked my brains to make up such a paragraph.

Perhaps it was really a little bit of luck, some of the super tribes that Dawu had traveled to had legends similar to the Godfather of Creation, so he convinced Dawu by mistake.

When Wu Ge traveled to the Super Tribe when he was young, he occasionally heard a few of them, because they were all vague statements, and like Wu Quan, he didn't take them to heart.

Now listening to Wu Nuowan, who is suspected of being a divine envoy, tactfully, I immediately felt enlightened.

As long as they believe it, the next thing will be easy to handle.

Wu Nuo suggested that they imitate the way of the Yanhuang Tribe and hold different ceremonies to worship the gods. The big ceremony is that everyone worships the father god together, and the small ceremony is that everyone worships their main god according to their own traditions. The big ceremony is held at the same time every year. The small ceremony will be held according to their original time.

In this way, there will be no conflicts.

Wu Nuo tried his best to create an unfounded creator god, not just to make the story sound more convincing, but to achieve another sense of seeking common ground while reserving differences.

With the current development trend of the Changhe Tribe, as well as his and Bai Damiao's ideas, it will only grow bigger and more tribes will be absorbed in the future, and the issue of belief will lead to serious troubles if they are not careful. Just like no one wants to admit that they are weak, similarly, they also don't want to believe that the gods they believe in are weaker than other gods, or even not recognized. But if everyone has a god that they believe in, and at the same time, this god is also the father of the gods, then many problems will be solved.

It's hard to say what will happen in the future, but at least it has tangible results now.

After Wu Ge and Duo Mu heard Wu Nuo's explanation, the last and biggest worry in their hearts was completely gone.

However, unlike the Dashi tribe, the dwarf tribe did not erase their original flame totem, but directly added a small skull animal head next to the flame to show their belonging to the Changhe tribe.

After two days of staying up, Wu Nuo, the Dawu and other priests finally finished drawing all the skulls and beast heads within the time limit stipulated by the system.

Wu Nuo finally scored more than 14,000 points, but his luck in the lottery was not very good. He didn't get the exercise he wanted the most, and only got a recipe for low-level fruit wine brewing.

Wu Nuo knew how to make wine, so he was not very interested in this recipe, but the method recorded on it was quite different from the method he knew. According to the method contained in the recipe, mixed fruit wine can be made from a variety of fruits. A lot of sugar needs to be added to make wine, and the degree of wine is higher than that of wine and slightly lower than that of white wine.

Wu Nuo really thought about making some wine. In the Black Forest, there are also plants that are very similar to grapes. They have similar shapes, colors and tastes, but the taste is a bit sour. To make wine with a sweet taste, you need to add a lot of sugar.

He had bought sugarcane from the bear clan orcs at the rally before, and he had planted it long ago, and the growth was very good, but the quantity was not large. At least one more season next year, before there would be any surplus for refining sugar.

Although this low-level recipe for brewing wine is not as precious as the cultivation method, it can be used just in time.

However, during this period of time, there were not many fully ripe fruits in the forest, and things in the tribe were piled up like a mountain. Wu Nuo could only put the recipe aside and try again later.

After the dwarves belonged to the Changhe tribe, they were considered members of the tribe. Compared with doing farm work, they were obviously more talented in making tools. They are dexterous and creative, and the simple agricultural tools can always be easily transformed by them to make them more useful. Wu Nuo discovered this advantage of them, so he simply let them go out of production, specializing in transforming and making tools for the tribe.

Don't underestimate the farm tools made by the dwarves, they are really very practical. With these new farm tools, everyone's working efficiency has improved a lot.

After more than a month of busy work, they finally harvested the white sweet potatoes and planted the bred seedlings in the newly opened wasteland.

Wu Nuo didn't know much about farming, but he still knew the term 'fallow'. Not to mention the lack of chemical fertilizers in the tribe, there is a serious gap in the supply of manure. Relying on soil strength alone, no matter how fertile the land is, it cannot withstand repeated cultivation, especially the white sweet potato, which is extremely vigorous and consumes a lot of fertility.

So after the last batch of white sweet potatoes were planted, Wu Nuo planned to arrange for people to reclaim some new wasteland outside the tribe. Anyway, there are fertile lands without owners everywhere around the tribe, and they don't occupy it. The progress of building houses in Xing is not fast. There are only a few people who have fixed residences, and most of them still live in simple tents. It is easy to arrange for them to move to a new place.

The vacated land naturally became the range of activities for the livestock.

One after another, Bai and his soldiers captured a lot of prey and returned. The dragon beasts hunted earlier and the animals killed or injured during the usual hunting were basically enough for everyone's daily meat needs, and all the living creatures were left to reproduce.

Through hunting and those previously domesticated, the tribe now has more than 10,000 livestock and poultry, large and small, and the base number has increased, and the speed of reproduction has also become rapid.

Just relying on the little lion cubs and their twenty or thirty little cubs, they have long been unable to see so many livestock. While Wu Nuo sent more people to guard and domesticate these livestock, he asked everyone to build livestock pens like his family did, using large and small pens to separate different breeds of livestock. Wu Nuo even suggested that everyone only focus on raising one or a few kinds of animals and take the road of professional breeding in order to accumulate more breeding experience. Animals that are not so easy to serve or breed should be raised as little as possible.

After thinking about it, everyone found that Wu Nuo's suggestion was indeed very reasonable.

Pigs, which are especially able to give birth, are very easy to feed, can eat, sleep and grow meat, and have a relatively docile temperament, have naturally become the object of everyone's eagerness to raise them. The popularity of long-toothed and meat birds is comparable to that of pigs and beasts, followed by horned sheep and bulls. Horned deer are delicious, but they tend to get sick in captivity. Compared with the above types, their cubs are more likely to die young and are not easy to handle. Listen. After Wu Nuo's suggestion, fewer people are willing to raise it. There are more than a dozen kinds of livestock in the tribe, among which the Lila beast is the most difficult to raise. They are good at digging holes, and if they are not careful, they will run away. People who have a special liking are almost unwilling to be raised by others.

Repairing circles is much easier than building a house. People with brick houses use their usual rest time to imitate the circles Wu Nuo made before, and clean up all their backyards. First, they use wood to circle a few circles, and then Go to the river to pick up some stones, use clay for building houses to stick these stones together to form a stone wall, then brush the clay on the mud floor, and lay a layer of stone slabs on it. After the clay dries and hardens, the stone slabs are firmly fixed on the ground.

Living in such pens, the livestock not only fight less, but also collect their feces more easily, eat and sleep all day long, and it is easier to grow meat than free-range animals.

Although it is easy to grow meat, these livestock only eat grass after all, and the growth speed is naturally far from comparable to that of modern animals that eat forage.

For example, it takes about 300 days for pigs to grow from birth to adulthood, which is equivalent to a modern year. On this planet with 480 days a year, it takes more than half a year. If they are kept in stock, the growth rate will be even slower. .

Of course, there are advantages. In addition to better meat quality, these grass-fed livestock rarely get sick.

Those who have repaired the circle will take back their livestock according to the registered number. These domesticated animals are much more docile than before. They stay in the same circle with other members of the same race, and they rarely fight except for grabbing food and females. Later, everyone consciously separated the female beasts from the male beasts, and even learned to castrate the male beasts, and there were fewer fights.

However, there are only a small number of families with houses and pens. Most of the livestock are still registered and grazed by the tribe.

Adult livestock basically have owners, but their cubs are not easy to divide. After discussing with Dawu, Wu Nuo came up with a compromise, which is to distribute these cubs to pure humans who don't have livestock.

The dwarves were lucky. Not long after joining the Changhe Tribe, people registered and assigned livestock cubs one after another. Although these cubs are only recorded in their names, and they cannot be taken back to raise themselves until they have a fixed house and pen in the future, this is already a great encouragement and motivation for them.

Because, this means that they have finally succeeded in taking root in this wealthy, powerful and thriving tribe.
