Farming Story of the Primitive Tribe in the Beast World

Chapter 64

The fire of Mukui was heated up fiercely, and after they finished a delicious dinner, the salt water in the pot was almost dry.

Except for the top layer of fine salt, the bottom layer is brown salt grains the size of a fingernail.

There are a lot of residues of water trumpet roots and other miscellaneous things mixed in it.

Mu Zhao picked up a piece of brown salt and tasted it, pleasantly surprised: "It really has a salty taste, but it looks different from the salt exchanged at the rally."

"This is just rough processing, and there will be a few more processes later." Mu Kui said.

She turned off the fire in the stove, and waited for the half-dried salt grains in the pot to be dried by the residual heat.

"My sister promises that the final product we make is much better than the rough salt that was exchanged at the rally."

Coarse salt is all exchanged at the rally.

Those races by the sea have mastered the crude method of extracting salt through the accumulation and precipitation of time.

However, they are still not as good as Mu Kui who stands on the shoulders of their predecessors.

Maybe they have better salt, but the kokui is estimated to not produce as much either.

Because what they brought out at the rally was the kind of slightly bitter, large-grained salt.

Even some low-quality salt is mixed with sand.

In the past, Mukui used coarse salt for cooking, and the taste was barely strong.

They also have low-quality salt, but Mu Kui is useless.

At first, seeing that the coarse salt at home was almost used up, Mu Kui was still thinking about it.

If she really can't find the plants or minerals that make the salt, then she will first purify the low-quality salt and then last for a while.

When the brine in the pot is completely evaporated by the remaining temperature, Mu Kui immediately pours it into a stone jar filled with boiling water.

The salt grains quickly melted into the boiling water, and after settling for a while, only residue remained at the bottom.

Pour the salt water on the surface into the pot and cook, and discard the residue at the bottom.

Repeat this several times, the salt grains become smaller and smaller, and the color also changes from brown at the beginning to lighten to snow white.

After midnight, Mu Kui stopped when she saw that the salt in the pot was similar to the salt she had eaten in her previous life.

After Mu Zhao took some of it in his mouth and tried it, those inconspicuous light blue stars in the dark pupils instantly became very bright.

"This salt is so white and fine, and it's not bitter at all, and there's no sand or anything like that. Sister is amazing!"

Mu Zhao admired and looked at Mu Kui with admiration.

If he didn't pay attention, he was dazzled by his brother's starry eyes.

"Cough! So-so!"

Mu Kui coughed dryly twice, and said somewhat uncomfortably.

Although the water horn has shallow roots, its root system is well developed, and each root grows extraordinarily thick.

This time, although Mu Kui only pulled out a water horn plant, he came back to do experiments.

However, after several tosses and twists and turns, the snow-white fine salt they finally produced could fill a one-liter Tongshu cup.

One liter is about the capacity of four or five ordinary glasses.

"It seems that the root of this water horn has a high salt content! No wonder it can only grow in the rainy season, and it has been receiving water all the time."

Mu Kui stroked her chin in thought.

The harvest this time is really good.

It seems that their method of making salt with horn roots is feasible.

"This is only available in the rainy season, we need to get more water horn roots back." Mu Zhao also said.

He was full of excitement: "In the future, we will never lack salt again!"

"Okay, it's getting late, we have to go gathering and hunting tomorrow, go to bed early!"

It is estimated that it is almost early morning, Mu Kui ignored Mu Zhao's excited mood, and directly urged him to go to bed to rest.

……

The next day, as usual, Mu Zhao went to the hunting team, and Mu Kui went to the gathering team.

However, because there are still a lot of nuts that have not been picked in the places explored yesterday, everyone did not continue to advance.

The females are still collecting in the same area as yesterday.

There was no way to explore the way, nor did they encounter any prey that the females could catch. They quickly filled the barrel boat and set foot on the return journey early.

Coincidentally, the hunting team came back early today.

After Nemu Zhao and Nemu Zhao moved all the things in the barrel boat into the cave, Mu Kui suddenly remembered something.

"Brother, the rainy season is only a few days away. If you are free today, take me to see those bee nests!"

Mu Kui grabs Mu Zhao who is about to go out to catch Gugu chicken.

Hearing this, Mu Zhao's starry eyes lit up instantly, and he immediately forgot about his idea of ​​catching a few Cuckoo Chickens and letting his sister beggar chickens.

"That's right! The wings of bees are so thin, maybe they can't fly in the rainy season. Go at this time, maybe you can get honey."

Mu Zhao was stunned and said excitedly.

As a child who has never eaten sugar or seen honey since childhood, Mu Zhao has already had a deep obsession with these two things.

"Yeah!" Mu Kui nodded and said with a smile, "Let's get ready and dig out the beehives while it's still early."

After getting an affirmative answer from his elder sister, Mu Zhao immediately cheered: "Dig out the honeycomb, dig out the honeycomb, I want to eat honey."

Thinking of the taste of honey mentioned by the orcs, Mu Zhao suddenly felt salivated, and had the urge to fly to the hive immediately.

……

Regardless of whether those bees can still fly, Mu Kui feels that they should be fully prepared before going.

There are not many animal skins in the house, and apart from the clothes they are wearing, there is only one cover and one pad left.

Mu Kui didn't know how powerful the bees were in the beast world, so she took the only two large animal skins left at home.

After leaving the tribe with the tube boat, Mu Kui first wrapped the two of them tightly with sunflower leaves.

Then, another person put on a large animal skin outside.

"Is this really possible?"

Mu Zhao let his elder sister wrap him into a rice dumpling, and in the end only his hands, feet and eyes were exposed.

"Even if the bees can't fly, it doesn't mean they can't shoot poisonous needles. I just do this just in case, I hope I can stop it!"

Mu Kui sighed.

She's not sure, but it's the only protection they have.

……

"Sister, look quickly, there is a beehive in front of you!"

The two sisters and brothers arrived at the place together on the barrel boat, and Mu Zhao pointed to a tree path in front of the left of the two.

Mu Kui looked in the direction he was pointing at, and saw a place under the tall tree branches that was barely exposed to rain.

And the beehive happened to be placed under that tree branch.

At this time, a few bees were flying around the nest, as if they were on patrol.

"I didn't expect it to be as big as a fist, and this swarm of bees is very smart, and they know how to find shelter from the rain to settle down." Mu Kui said to herself.

However, having said that, Mu Kui is not very worried.

Because those patrolling bees never left the dry area from beginning to end.

Obviously, the abundant rainfall in the rainy season still has an impact on them.

"As long as you are afraid of water, I don't believe there is nothing you can do about it."

Mukui rolled her eyes and suddenly had an idea.

She said, "Brother, try throwing a smaller stone over there first."

"it is good!"

Mu Zhao complied, and quickly found a fist-sized rock and threw it over.

Whoosh!boom!
The sound of slapping rainwater minimized the sound of flying stones and colliding with beehives.

But the strength of the beast-patterned warrior is not limited. Even with the resistance of the rain, this fist-sized stone hit the hive precisely, shaking it slightly.

Soon, many frightened bees flew out of the hive, buzzing anxiously around the hive, and some even flew into the rain curtain impatiently.

However, it was almost an instant of effort.

As soon as those bees plunged into the rain curtain, their wings were broken by the impact of the rain the next second, and they fell straight into the flood.

"effective!"

Mu Kui said pleasantly, turned around and gave a palm to Mu Zhao who also had a happy expression on his face.

These bees, as she thought, are not arrogant at all during the rainy season.

It seems that their honey has been found today!
