The pipes were hand-carved wood, and the tobacco was crushed by the girl herself. The group of old smokers smoked happily, and it seemed to taste really good.
As they smoked, food was served, smoked fish, smoked meat, stewed wild vegetables, whole roasted hare, some home-brewed wine, and so on.
The vegetables were what the Tavisi called baba. There were charcoal baked baba, steamed baba, fried baba, and baba meat sauce.
This' baba 'was the potato. They were discovered by the Indians as food and first lived in Peru and Chile in the Andes Mountains of South America. About 8000 years ago, an Indian tribe migrated to the cold Andes Mountains from the east and set up camp near Lake Titicaca. They discovered and ate wild potatoes.
Until now, potatoes were the most important plant of the Indians. The potatoes they grew were a little different from those outside, and they were still more wild potatoes.
Not everything was best when it was wild. Wild potatoes had a lower starch content, were not as productive as potato plants cultivated in the civilized world, and provided less energy.
The chief smoked and waved them to eat. Li Du tasted some baba, which was not much different from the potatoes he usually ate. If he tasted it carefully, he would find it bitter and harder.
Hakatulama sat discontentedly next to the chief and said, "The tribe's food reserves are not optimistic. Chief, why waste food?"
The chief frowned and said, "Shut up, Hakatulama, where is the etiquette your father and mother taught you? The Tavisi are not barbarians. Don't let the guests laugh at you! "
Hakatulama grunted at the accusation, his face gloomy, and he stopped talking.
Sadisram ate and drank as he introduced, "Chief, Mr. Li really has a Holy Wolf. Catulom and I were saved by it, especially Catulom. If it weren't for the blessing of Mohican, he would have left us!"
The chief nodded and looked curiously at Ah Ow.
Ah Ow noticed that someone was looking at her, so she turned her head and rolled her eyes, then continued to eat and drink with Li Du.
Sadisram whispered to Li Du, "Mr. Li, show everyone the power and wisdom of the Holy Wolf."
Li Du decided to play dumb. He sipped his fruit wine and said, "What power and wisdom? How? "
Sadisram was a little anxious and said, "Just like on the way here, it can understand you, it's very capable, it can jump on a rock as tall as a person …"
When he was bored along the way, Li Du would play with the little ones. The abilities shown by Ah Meow and Ah Ow were ordinary to Li Du, but Sadisram and his nephew, who had seen them for the first time, were amazed.
Li Du smiled and said, "Let's eat first. Ah Ow is not a circus monkey. She's not good at performing."
Sadisram was even more anxious. He wanted to say a few more words, but Hakatulama sneered and said contemptuously, "The Holy Wolf is noble and will not be ruled by humans. You are really out of your mind, Sadisram. How can you be so stupid?"
Li Du kept his head down as he ate. He had no interest in the infighting among the Tavisi.
Hakatulama was a rough man, a troublemaker. He mocked Sadisram and turned to Li Du. "Is this really a wolf? It doesn't look like a wolf at all. It's so weak. Is it more like a dog? "
Li Du didn't want to be used by Sadisram, but he didn't want to put up with the taunts of a fool.
He noticed that the chief had been looking at him with interest. He didn't know what he was planning, but he guessed that the chief was still very interested in Ah Ow's identity.
So he clapped his hands and said, "Ah Ow, come to me."
Ah Ow licked her lips and came up. Li Du looked at Hakatulama and said, "See that guy? Go and scare him. "
Then he whispered a few words in Ah Ow's ear, teaching her in more detail what to do.
Ah Ow was very intelligent, but she could not have the ability to understand like a human.
After some guidance, Ah Ow understood. She licked the back of Li Du's hand, and suddenly the muscles of her limbs tightened as if she were stepping on a spring, and she rushed toward Hakatulama.
Her explosive power was unparalleled, and she sprinted like a cannonball. One second she was licking the back of Li Du's hand, and the next second she appeared in front of Hakatulama and hit him in the chest.
Ah Ow ate and drank well all day, exercised a lot, and was strong. She weighed about eighty or ninety pounds, which was a large size for a canine.
She knocked into Hakatulama and sent him flying. Ah Ow then bit his belt, opened her mouth, and dragged him along under the shade of the tree.
Hakatulama screamed in fear, and when he came to, he was dragged to the ground. He had no clothes on his upper body, and his skin was rubbing against the ground. He continued to scream, "Let me go! This bastard! This bastard! "
The chief's face suddenly changed, and he hurriedly said, "God Mohican! Sir, make her stop, make her let go of the bastard Hakatulama! "
Li Du whistled, and Ah Ow let go of Hakatulama, then spat in his face, turned around, and ran happily to Li Du.
Seeing this, the surrounding natives were in an uproar.
Sadisram, with a face full of joy, shouted, "This is the Holy Wolf, see? This is the Holy Wolf! "
Li Du curled his lips and continued to sip his fruit wine.
Hakatulama got up from the ground awkwardly. He had been attacked by Ah Ow, but he was not angry. Instead, he murmured in surprise, "Is it really the Holy Wolf? Is it the Holy Wolf? "
The chief's face became serious. He knelt on one knee before Ah Ow, pointed at her heart and forehead with his right hand, and waved his arm as if to sprinkle something to Ah Ow.
Li Du did not know what kind of etiquette this was, but it should be a sign of respect, because when the others saw the chief make this gesture, they also knelt on the ground and followed suit.
Ah Ow had no interest in this. She looked at the food on the ground, and finally fixed her eyes on a roasted lamb foreleg. Then she swept Li Du's neck with her tail and kept gesturing with her eyes to the lamb foreleg.
Seeing this, the chief, Hakatulama, and the others became even more devout.
Li Du handed the lamb foreleg to Ah Ow, who pressed it to the ground and chewed happily.
This was the foreleg of a wild goat, and the bones were extremely hard, but in Ah Ow's mouth, it was like a chocolate bar, and she chewed it into several pieces.
At this point, no one doubted Ah Ow's identity. As natives who dealt with wild animals all day, everyone knew the difference in biting force between a wolf and a dog.
