Chapter 174. 174. Batter porridge and shepherd's purse dumplings
Our team is already very close to drowning. We can already see low-lying puddles on the wasteland, and the pasture here is obviously more lush. It is less than four days away from the Beigou Valley mining site. If you ride fast A horse can even run back and forth in less than a day.

There is no desolation in the wasteland, and the speckled puddles are like stars twinkling in the night sky. Under the reflection of the setting sun, they are covered with golden scales.Knee-high wild bracken grew around the waterhole, and those fresh leaves were full of temptation to every orc.The edible wild vegetables in the four fields are like weeds, such as shepherd's purse, trichosanthes, wild radish, and water celery.

Gerile took Kuz's hand and ran to a plant covered with tender green heart-shaped leaves, pulled out the hunting knife hanging on his waist, cut off the tender stems of these vines, pushed them aside, and hunted The knife was deeply inserted into the wet soil, and pushed up vigorously, a large piece of brown soil was pushed out with a large bunch of sweet potatoes.

This place is so inaccessible, the orcs really dare not set foot here in order to avoid the swamp zombies. Even the orcs in the quarry can't help but bend down when they see the wild vegetables everywhere, and quickly pick up the tender leaves of wild vegetables , Regardless of the image, he stuffed it into his mouth and chewed.Even in these days, the orc overseers in these quarries can eat very full every meal, maybe they are too hungry, seeing these edible wild vegetables, they still can't help but want to take a bite.

But on the other hand, I began to notice that the orc overseers in the quarry who usually like to eat their fill, either beating gray dwarf slaves or molesting the orc girls of the Raitu tribe, began to look cautious, and they began to shrank honestly. The two sides of the gray dwarf slave team silently followed our large army.

The number of swamp zombies wandering in the wilderness began to increase. Standing on Yagui Beast, I could even see a few swamp zombie kings on the hills in the distance. Their unusually tall figures silently watched us in the group of corpses. People, that kind of invisible coercion began to spread to our entire team, this is the truly terrifying swamp zombie.

When the female beast warriors rode argali to hunt those swamp zombies in the fringe area as usual, it was just that after killing more than a dozen swamp zombies one after another, those swamp zombies wandering in the wasteland turned towards Drowning at the same time. retreat.The orc overseer from the Beigou Valley Quarry ran over and told us: We can't go any further, those zombies have already ambushed in front, waiting for us to go over and surround and kill us.

The Raitu tribe is a tribe located on the edge of the swamp. The Raitu female warriors have recognized the horror of the swamp zombies since they were young, and they also have a good understanding of their habits. The zombies have almost no vision, day and night. There is not much difference for them, the only difference is that the hot sun will take a lot of water from their bodies.For the death scythes of the ghost family, under the direct sunlight, the body will turn into a puff of white smoke. These death scythes will hide in caves or cemeteries during the day, and only come out at night .

The swamp corpse kings are some undead creatures with elementary intelligence, and they instinctively know what danger is. If our team were a group of deserters wandering in the wasteland, I am afraid they would have already covered up and killed them.And when they tentatively let ordinary swamp zombies come into contact with us, they discovered that the weapons in the hands of the female beast warriors could easily pierce the thick armor of the zombies, and they were able to hunt and kill these slow-moving zombies. What kind of method will recall all the zombies scattered in the wasteland.

Since they couldn't go any further, Kurtz asked the team to stop and set up camp.

At this time, the more than 1000 gray dwarf slaves who followed the team began to get busy under the command of the orc supervisor. Almost all of them carried shovels and mining picks with them. skilled.Sure enough, it didn't take long for the neat rows of cellars to be dug, and a half-meter-high thick earth wall was built around the cellars. On the top of the wall, a roof that can shelter from the rain was propped up, and a cellar that could accommodate four or five beast girls was built.

After the work was done, the gray dwarf slaves did not rest, they still dug trenches silently around the camp with their shovels on their shoulders.How could Kuz and I understand this, but it was just an assignment from the orc overseers of the quarry. Kuz dragged me towards the orc leader of the quarry. Apart from bullying those gray dwarves, they will only take advantage of the orc girls.

Kurz casually dug out a dried argali hind leg from the cloth bag, carried it up in his hand, and threw the argali hind leg weighing several tens of kilograms into the arms of the orc supervisor, almost knocking the man who was arrogantly reprimanding Hui Hui. The leader of the dwarf overseer, the dwarf slaves, hurried to work, stumbled, and then kindly walked up, put his arm around the shoulders of the dwarf overseer, and started talking affectionately regardless of the sour smell on his body.In fact, there is nothing serious at all, just chatting about some things, and connecting with each other.

I squatted aside and quietly watched an old gray dwarf who was very hungry and thin, wielding a shovel vigorously to dig a ditch. The ditch was already deep above his head. down means.I couldn't help asking curiously from the side: "How deep does this trench need to be dug?"

"Dig as deep as you can!" The old gray dwarf answered my question in pure orc language without looking up.

"Just keep digging like this, how long will it take?" I kept asking.

The gray dwarf old man raised his eyes and saw that I was a child of the human race. He was a little surprised, but he still replied honestly: "Dig until we finish eating!"

I can't understand why there is such an abundance of wild vegetables here, and the owner of Horsens almost starved these dwarves to death in the quarry.The orc girls picked a lot of wild vegetables from the pasture. I heard from Gerile that the dinner is a very traditional wild vegetable porridge. Add some dried meat, and in the batter porridge of the gray dwarves slaves, the batter is probably not much better than water, and weeds will be their staple food.

I don't want to listen to Kurz chatting with the leader of the orc overseer. Although I agree with Kurz doing this, it doesn't mean I like it.

Walking casually in the camp, watching Viruan set up the tent in the camp, and taking advantage of the light of day, he led Gu Bolai out of the camp. I think their goal should be the hills in the distance. Those corpse kings.Viru and the others found an egg-sized magic core in the corpse king's head brought out of Bangor Manor. It is said that the magic spar inside is twice as big as the magic core found in the head of an ordinary zombie.Presumably they wanted to try their luck this time, to see if there was a chance to hunt another one.I saw Sister Guoguo, who was dressed in white, also following behind the team. It seemed that they had made great determination this time.

Squatting by the stove, watching the beast women of the Raitu tribe cook vegetable porridge. After countless corrections by me, these women finally understand that wild vegetables should be washed carefully before they are put into the pot.Until now, I still can't praise the food they cook. Even if there is extremely finely ground wheat flour, they can only cook batter porridge and pancakes on stone slabs.With the rapid increase in the population of the team, the maid Asakusa has told these cooks not to make black bread and pancakes. These two foods consume too much flour, so the food in the team is very simple recently, just batter porridge with salt and dried meat , After hitting this place, the batter porridge has become vegetable porridge.

Gerile and Asakusa were at the side of the puddle, washing a basin of round, white and raw sweet potatoes. It seemed that the two of them had come up with a harmonious relationship. There were two golden pheasants at Gerile's feet, and their feathers The arrow has not been drawn yet.They saw me fascinated by the side, the maid Asakusa just looked at me curiously, but Gerile knew me very well, raised her face and jokingly said to me: "Master Jia, would you like to help us clean the floor together?" Yam."

After washing this thing, even after peeling it, cutting it into small pieces and blanching it in water, it is still difficult to get rid of the astringent taste inside. No wonder the Green Empire listed this food as food that can only be eaten by slaves.I didn't expect that as soon as Gerile and Kurtz dug out the sweet potatoes, Gerile found two golden pheasants on the back, and prepared to make a delicious pot according to what Kurtz said.Anyway, I don't want to try the things made by these two people. They have no problem making barbecue, but I don't even have the courage to try the others.

Maybe when Sister Guoguo comes back in the evening, she can have some delicious food with the Windchaser Adventure Group. Sister Guoguo's taste is pretty normal.

Hearing Gerile's invitation, I quickly shook my head and ran away.

A few orc girls on the other side of the puddle are washing a lot of shepherd's purse. These shepherd's purse are used to cook vegetable porridge for the gray dwarf slaves. The washed shepherd's purse is piled up on the grass beside it in a big pile. I saw There was only a small half bag of black flour on the side. It seemed that the flour had to be shared equally among the more than 1000 gray dwarf slaves. Even if it was thrown into the soup pot, it wouldn't even thicken up.Thinking of the old gray dwarf standing in the ditch and digging hard, I think they should enjoy some slightly better food. These gray dwarf slaves can't be broken down, and we still expect them to work for us in the future!

Those freshly washed shepherd's purses reminded me of the shepherd's purse dumplings I had eaten in my previous life. I suddenly became interested, so I mixed with these beast girls and took them to make shepherd's purse dumplings.

Naturally, it is impossible for me to cook meals for more than 1000 gray dwarf slaves, just to demonstrate to these orc girls. Fortunately, the steps of this thing are very simple: chop the washed shepherd's purse with a knife, put it in a large pot, Then add some fine salt and grilled sausage mince, and finally add a little black flour, let each shepherd's purse leaf be slightly dipped in flour, hold it tightly into vegetable balls, put them in a pot and steam them over high heat, and then they are ready to eat .

In fact, I don't think this food is delicious, and I can't get back the previous taste no matter what.After it was done, I just randomly picked up a vegetable dumpling and left.

Hiding in Sister Guoguo's tent, practicing the two magic skills of "magic resistance" and "flame tongue weapon" boringly, when the magic power is exhausted, I will feel that new magic power is slowly growing in my body with exhausted magic power. That feeling of magic.

The structure diagram of the magic circle of "heating" clearly appeared in my mind. The light yellow magic force was condensed at one point. I felt that my control over the magic force became stronger, and the group of magic force was very stable. It rotated freely between my fingers, and I just stretched out my hand to draw a magic circle in the air naturally, and then the bright magic light rushed into my body like a six-pointed star array.

At this time, the "heating" skill has been promoted to level eight. At this time, the heating function has been able to show some power. The 80.00% increase in the body's mana recovery speed makes me feel that it takes less than 10 minutes for the mana value in the body to be exhausted. Being able to recover to full, although this also shows that the mana storage in my body is a little pitiful, but if I have a mana pool in the future, after the mana capacity increases, then the mana recovery speed will also increase exponentially.

Those human magicians like Sister Guoguo are more used to getting out of battle as much as possible before their magic power is exhausted, and use meditation to restore their magic power.The orc shaman is different from the magician. The orc shaman also has a strong mana recovery ability during the battle.And I, a child of the human race, by chance, learned the common magic skill of "heating" for all races, and then possessed the water totem with the skill of "magic recovery".Sometimes, I really want to try to turn on the magic recovery effect of the water totem and the magic recovery effect of heating at the same time, how fast my magic recovery speed will be!

I feel that after the magic power is drained from the body, new magic power is bred in the nodes that originally contained magic power in the body, just like after running wildly in the desert under the scorching sun until the mouth is dry, a clear spring gushes into the mouth refreshing feeling.

Noisy noises came from outside the tent. I don’t know what happened. Normally, when I hid in Sister Guoguo’s tent, Kurz rarely came to look for me, because Sister Guoguo is a water magician worthy of awe.

But I didn't expect Kurz to come to me at this time, and the reason was actually the turmoil caused by those shepherd's purse dumplings.

I never thought that these vegetable dumplings made the whole dinner very chaotic, and the steamed vegetable dumplings exuded an attractive aroma, which made the tribal beast girls who had prepared the batter and vegetable porridge abandon the vegetable porridge one after another, and went with those few A cook interceded, exchanged vegetable porridge for a few balls of shepherd's purse balls, took them home and ate them with relish.

As a result, the shepherd's purse dumpling, which was originally enough for [-] gray dwarves, became very nervous. At this time, it was the turn of the orc supervisors in the quarry to cook. They saw many orc girls eating vegetables with relish The dumplings, thinking that these were dinner, also came to get the vegetable dumplings one after another, so that in the end, the remaining vegetable dumplings were only enough to distribute to a few hundred gray dwarves, and the remaining half of the gray dwarf slaves disappeared for dinner.

Those gray dwarves who worked hard to dig the trenches began to lose their temper. They were afraid of the orc supervisors, so they spread their anger on those gray dwarves who had already received the vegetable dumplings. People completely burst out the grievances accumulated in their hearts, and some people began to quarrel.

Many gray dwarves were whipped, and Kurtz sent people to distribute the remaining wild vegetable batter and porridge to the gray dwarves who did not eat the vegetable dumplings, so the matter calmed down.Kuz got to the bottom of it and found that the cause was actually because of me, who suddenly wanted to turn the wild vegetable porridge into steamed vegetable dumplings, so he came to see me in Sister Guoguo's tent and complained endlessly.

In the end, the two of us sat on the grass outside Sister Guoguo's tent, watching the beautiful scenery of the setting sun in the distance.

Kuz suddenly said: "Well... Jiayou said, they will come at night, right?"

"Uh!" I didn't realize what Kurtz was talking about for a while, but when I thought about it, I suddenly had an idea in my heart, and after a flash of light flashed in my mind, it seemed that I had grasped something at this moment. thing.

I began to sort out the thoughts in my mind, and then began to organize my words, and said to Kurtz: "It should come! It will definitely come, and maybe I will meet those death scythes. By the way, I have a good idea..."
