The highland barley grown in the highlands was a type of barley. One of the staple foods of the Tibetans, Zanba, was made by washing the highland barley and drying it. After it was cooked, it was ground into highland barley flour and mixed with butter tea.
Native eggs were a good staple food, but they had a fatal shortcoming, and that was that they were not easy to preserve. In comparison, barley was different. After drying, it could be stored for a long time, at least a year.
Although it could not be used to make bread, it could be used to make pancakes and tsamba …
Before the apocalypse, Zhou Ji had traveled to Tibet and had eaten the authentic Zanba made with butter tea. It was delicious when paired with yak meat.
Unfortunately, in this place, one could forget about butter tea.
All mammals were in the form of Orcs, which meant that they could only drink milk from humans …
"It doesn't taste good?" Xiong Ye was a little disappointed. He felt that this thing was not bad, so he wanted to give it to Zhou Ji. If it was not delicious …
"Other than the soil eggs, the other plants are not tasty," Bao Cheng said. He didn't know that Xiong Ye wanted to give this to someone, so he didn't say much …
"It's actually quite delicious." Zhou Ji was very calm. "This is the plant that the Beast Deity asked me to find."
When he came out, he made up an excuse. He was going to take the pumpkin back to report on his mission, but he did not expect to accidentally get the barley.
"The food that the Beast Deity asked you to find is so small?" Xiong Qi was shocked. They were so small, even if they were delicious, how were they going to pick them?
"You'll know once you plant it," Zhou Ji said. The yield of barley was not high, but it was not picky about its growing environment. It could be grown in a large area and was very resistant to hunger. This was a good thing!
Zhou Ji was too lazy to say more, and his face was expressionless. Xiong Qi saw him like this and felt a little guilty. "Great Beast God, I am not doubting you, please forgive me."
Although the Little Stream Tribe didn't have a priest to teach them the orthodox method of worshipping the Beast God, they still believed in the Beast God. Not every tribe had a priest, but everyone knew about the Beast God through their interactions.
When the people of the Little Creek tribe saw this scene, their faces were full of shock. "Beast Deity?"
"Zhou Ji is the messenger of the Beast Deity," Xiong Ye said. Zhou Ji's change, Xiong Ye had been keeping it in his eyes all along.
The previous priest was a gift from the Beast Deity to their tribe. Zhou Ji was a gift from the Beast Deity.
The faces of the people of the Little Creek tribe were filled with reverence.
Zhou Ji suddenly felt like he was a fraud.
In the beginning, he had used such words to fool the priest just to make himself feel better, but now … he had no way of backing down.
In order to make it easier for him to do things in the future, in order to live a better life, he even needed to create a little miracle.
After all, the Giant Tiger Tribe was eyeing him like a tiger watching its prey. He had a lot of things to do.
Sometimes, plans really can't keep up with changes.
When he returned, there were many more people, but to Zhou Ji, the change was not big.
Xiong Ye still took good care of him. If he saw any interesting plants along the way, as long as he shouted for them to stop, everyone would stop and let him find the plants.
In short, he was the center of the team.
Since the people of the big bear tribe treated him like this, the people of the Little Creek tribe also treated him like this. When they saw him, they would be very careful. They even wanted him to talk about the Beast God.
Zhou Ji: "…"
They soon arrived at the territory of the big bear tribe.
The people of the Little Creek tribe faintly felt that something was wrong — along the way, they always encountered a lot of dinosaurs. They had a lot of people, so the dinosaurs didn't dare to do anything to them. But now … why didn't they see any dinosaurs?
Faced with this situation, Xiong Ye was also a little helpless.
Along the way, he had always been the one leading people to hunt. But now that they were in his tribe's territory … it was difficult for him to even catch a prey!
Luckily, when they hunted before, they caught more, so they didn't have to worry about starving.
"Why aren't there any dinosaurs around your tribe?" Bao Cheng was extremely shocked.
Zhou Ji was also very helpless. A tribe without dinosaurs in its territory was like a tiger living on a bare mountain, or a group of lions occupying a grassland without prey. It was not only rare, but also unbelievable.
"Our tribe doesn't rely on hunting to survive," Zhou Ji said.
"How do you live without hunting?" Bao Cheng was puzzled.
"We planted a large number of soil eggs," Zhou Ji said.
"How many?"
"It can let everyone in the tribe eat their fill," Zhou Ji said. Actually, compared to hunting, planting was really a very cost-effective thing to do. If they wanted to feed more people, they still had to rely on planting.
After hearing Zhou Ji's words, Bao Cheng's face was full of envy. "You can actually eat your fill without hunting!"
When he was first saved by the big bear tribe, Bao Cheng didn't want to join the big bear tribe.
But along the way, his thoughts had completely changed.
When his tribesmen were attacked by the Giant Tiger tribe, many of them were injured, and then they were starved for a few days … Because of this, when they ambushed the Giant Tiger tribe, more than ten of them died at once.
Some of the injured tribesmen from the Little Creek tribe fought desperately with the Giant Tiger tribe, so naturally, they couldn't be saved.
After that battle, more than forty of them survived, but Bao Cheng felt that five of them wouldn't be able to live for more than a few days.
This was his judgment based on his past experience.
However, after meeting Zhou Ji, these people didn't die!
Zhou Ji gave them black medicine to drink, bandaged their wounds, and then those who were originally going to die, one by one, came back to life!
Not only that, they also saw the power of the big bear tribe.
Not to mention other things, when Zhou Ji occasionally cooked, the way he cooked was something they had never seen before!
Zhou Ji also knew a lot of plants, and knew a lot of things that could be eaten …
To the people of the Little Creek tribe, Zhou Ji really knew too many things!
If Zhou Ji knew so much, then how powerful was the big bear tribe?
Until now, Bao Cheng already wanted to join the big bear tribe!
Living in a safe place without large dinosaurs, and not having to hunt to fill his stomach was like heaven to him.
Bao Cheng and the rest were extremely envious.
Xiong Ye and the rest: "…" Their lives weren't like what Zhou Ji said at all …
When they were about to reach the tribe, Zhou Ji didn't let Xiong Ye carry him, but walked by himself.
Everyone was walking very fast, but Xiong Ye was walking slowly with Zhou Ji, so he was lagging behind.
"Zhou Ji, why did you say that to the people of the Little Creek tribe?" Xiong Ye asked.
"I want them to stay," Zhou Ji said.
"Why?"
"The tribe lacks manpower," Zhou Ji said, "and combat power."
The Giant Tiger tribe obviously didn't come with good intentions, and he couldn't do anything, so he could only let the people of the big bear tribe become stronger.
Besides, whether it was planting soil eggs or planting barley, they both needed manpower.
"Zhou Ji, you're different from what I thought!" Xiong Ye couldn't help but say. In the beginning, he thought that Zhou Ji was a pitiful person who could only rely on him, but later on, he gradually felt that something was wrong.
This time, when he went to exchange salt with Zhou Ji, he felt that … Zhou Ji was completely different from what he thought.
"Oh? And then? "Zhou Ji looked at Xiong Ye.
"I think you're quite cute like this," Xiong Ye said. Zhou Ji actually knew how to lie … He really felt that Zhou Ji was quite cute.
"You too," Zhou Ji said seriously.
There were too many things to do recently, and he was away from home, so he hadn't played with a bear for a long time …
When he returned to the tribe, he must have a good one.
Just as Zhou Ji was thinking about this, he heard Xiong Bai's voice, "The salt exchange team is back!"
He didn't know that Xiong Bai's voice was so loud …
Xiong Bai was out to catch small dinosaurs, and when he saw the salt exchange team by chance, he immediately shouted.
Hearing this shout, the people of the Little Creek tribe were startled. They were afraid that dinosaurs would be attracted. However, no dinosaurs were attracted, but some people of the big bear tribe who were catching dinosaurs with Xiong Bai were attracted.
Some herbivorous dinosaurs didn't raise their own children, but most of the dinosaurs would raise their own children, especially the carnivorous dinosaurs.
However, different from mammals, when dinosaurs were born, they were almost fully developed. Therefore, they didn't need to be raised by female dinosaurs for too long, especially herbivorous dinosaurs.
Even without the mother dinosaur, many small dinosaurs could live on their own.
Spring was the season for reproduction. When those dinosaurs ran away, many of them had already laid eggs. Therefore, many small dinosaurs hatched in the territory of the big bear tribe. Although it had been a long time and they could catch fewer and fewer, they could still catch some fish that escaped the net.
When Xiong Bai came over, he was carrying a baby of a steel-horned dragon.
Seeing this, the people of the Little Creek tribe were all shocked.
Steel-Horned dragons cared about their babies very much. It was a 6 m long dinosaur with a sharp horn on its head … If the people of the big bear tribe caught the baby of a steel-horned dragon, the female dinosaur would definitely come to find them.
They couldn't help but be a little afraid.
But when they saw Xiong Bai and the others' unconcerned expressions …
The big bear tribe probably wasn't afraid of the steel-horned dragon? Maybe they had deliberately caught this steel-horned dragon to attract the female dinosaur!
Bao Cheng praised Xiong Bai, "This little dinosaur is really fat. It looks delicious. You're really amazing." The people of the big bear tribe always praised each other, so he learned a little.
Xiong Bai said, "It's so skinny, and you say it's fat? I plan to take good care of it when I get back and fatten it up! "
Bao Cheng said, "Raise?" Raise a dinosaur? Did he hear wrong?
Xiong Bai ignored him and turned to Zhou Ji, "Zhou Ji, we've raised more than a hundred dinosaurs!"
