MTL - Orcs and Hyena Orcs Are In Love with Each Other-Chapter 40 Newlyweds
On the day of the dispute with Bai Ling on the mountain, the things Yin Licai found were thrown aside because Mu La suddenly gave birth to a cub. It took him a long time to remember it. Since the opening of Spring, there has been more food, and he seems to be less appreciative of food.
It wasn't until Gubei went to the warehouse to look for something and smelled the withered and rancid smell of plants that he dug up the bamboo basket full of things. Now, after the plants have shrunk, only about half of the original full basket of plants is left.
Gu Bei pinched his nose and dragged the bamboo basket to find Yin Li, "Do you want this thing? It stinks!"
Yin Li was stunned for a while, and finally remembered this, "God!" There are red flowers he picked! He was meant to be a dye!
Seeing Yin Li like this, Gubei seemed to care about these things, so he had to help him start sorting out the rotten plants in the yard. Yin Li picks things regardless of whether they can eat or not. He picks them up and threw them into the basket when he thinks them useful and has never seen them before. Gubei didn't know what the purpose of these things was, and only separated them according to their shape and degree of decay.
Yin Li picked a handful of safflower before, but he remembered that he wrapped it in a big leaf at that time, it was easy to recognize, he found the leaf bag at once, and after opening it, the inside was Safflower is severely dehydrated. Dyeing can be done with plant-derived ingredients, he knows this, but the question is... how to extract it? A clean laboratory suddenly flashed in his mind, scientists in white lab coats scrutinizing a pile of test tubes. Well, the orc world does not have such conditions. He put the safflower aside, intending to mash it with a garlic jar later, if it can produce juice, it should be ready to use.
Pick up the lower epidermis of the stone blade on one side, and the color inside the rhizome is orange-yellow. "It can't be... sweet potato, right?" If it was a sweet potato, he would be rich! I haven't eaten starchy foods for a long time! what! Heaven! He misses it to death!
"Ah! Quick! Gubei! Come and steam it!" Yin Li had taught Gubei how to steam fish before, so Gubei knew this cooking method.
But Gubei did not immediately respond to Yin Li's words, he asked Yin Li suspiciously, "Is this food edible?"
"Yes!" Yin Li was very sure, but after saying this, he paused, he was not very sure, "Probably, maybe, maybe, it should be possible." When he got the chili at the meeting, he also cooked and ate it! The wheat from before, isn't it okay?
"Still...let's wait for my brother to come back!" Gubei is of course very grateful to Yin Li for bringing so many novel things, unheard of cooking methods, and a small number of new foods to the tribe, but This thing, he did not dare to put it in his mouth without the judgment of the orc.
Females do not have this skill. Just like the beastman from the forest tribe who took out chili peppers and sold them at the stall, he also made sure that the thing was spicy but non-toxic before he dared to sell it. The wheat brought back by alopecia areata is naturally identified by alopecia areata.
Some foods are so pungent that Orcs won't touch them, but that doesn't mean they're poisonous.
"No need!" Yin Li still didn't know that the orc's nose was so sensitive, "You don't need to bother him with this trivial matter. After you steam it, stuff a piece for the lamb to eat, if it's small If the sheep are fine, then there is no problem." Yin Li had thought about raising chickens before, and he could get eggs and test poison for him at the same time. Unfortunately, this wish has not been fulfilled.
"Uh... Okay." Gu Bei felt that his ideas were not compatible with Yin Li's, so using food to test poison was an amazing idea.
"Come on!" Yin Li sent Gubei away and continued to look for food in the 'rubbish heap'. There is probably no traveler as down and out as he is, and he has to dig garbage to find a new thing... How come the author's golden finger can't fall on his head?
Sigh and sigh, the work still has to be done. Yin Li pulled out another rhizome plant. The rhizome was like a small ball. Yin Li had a hunch that this thing could be eaten. After pulling out the soil on the surface, Yin Li felt more and more familiar with this thing, "Why does it look like taro?"
The taste of raw taro is not so easy to identify. Yin Li cut it in half to see the inside. The appearance of taro that has been eaten on Earth before! "Unexpectedly, I found it!"
Taro, like sweet potato, is high in starch, hungry and has a large yield. What could be more perfect than this! Growing wheat and rice is much harder than growing root plants!
"Gubei! Steam this too!" Yin Li lifted the bulbous rhizome he thought was a taro and waved it a few times.
"Good!" Gubei's voice came from the kitchen.
Two rhizomes were dug out one after another, Yin Li began to ask for the blessing of the beast god, and another one! Potato! He is not very greedy! Enough for three! Beast God! Heavenly and Earthly! Amen! Amitabha! oops! Whichever one, as long as it manifests itself!
Yin Li was looking for treasure in a pile of rotten leaves. He was happy to find it. There were not many rhizomes. He searched for a long time before he found one. Yin Li held the little thing in his hand, and Yin Li's eyes were filled with tears when he felt it! It's not potatoes he shows eating raw alopecia areata! "Ahhh! I, Yin Li, also had such a lucky day!"
Since he came to the orc world, he has no golden fingers, he wants to change the weaving method of sackcloth, but he can't put it into practice. The former 'twin brothers' came together and found the peppers but they were grown in other people's tribes... It's really a tragic time-travel tragedy!
Potato! Please be a potato! Yin Li rubbed off the soil on it and prayed silently in his heart. "Gubei! This! Steam it!" This time Yin Li didn't cut it open to see what was inside. He closed his eyes and waved his hand, leaving this suspense to the end.
Gu Bei was tortured to the point of losing his temper. He ran out of the kitchen again, grabbed the strange thing and went back to processing.
Yin Li had just turned over a pile of orchids, and determined that these unrecognizable plants would be difficult to find what he wanted, so he wanted to pick up the safflower that was next to him at the beginning, Proceed to the next step.
But when he reached out and picked up the big leaf, he was surprised to find that the left hand was yellow and the right was black. Black may be the color of soil and sand, but what about yellow? He rubbed a few handfuls of the light yellow on his left hand, but he didn't rub it clean. He quickly went to find water to wash it off. The yellow color was always on his hand, but it was not as clear as the beginning.
In addition to safflower, are there other dyeing materials in this pile of grass?
He ran back to the place just now, and concentrated on looking for yellow flowers, leaves, and fruits, and finally he found two kinds of yellow flowers, one kind of yellow fruit, he broke the petals and crushed them. Fruit, dipped in juice and smeared on wounds. Since he came to the orc world, he has become less concerned about his image, and the overall performance is that he uses himself as a test object. After a while, he washed the marks on his hands with water. The results showed that the sap of a yellow flower had a strong yellow color and could be tried as a dye. However, the amount he picked was too small, and he couldn't remember where the flower was found. "Alas! It looks like I have to go to the mountain tomorrow."
The kind of flowers that can be used as yellow dyes, he picked them together with the branches. When he was handling the flowers, he accidentally tore off the leaves. The juice of the leaves was light green. It was this accident that when he was pounding the safflower juice, he found that there were a few light black lines on his wrist.
"This... is it also a dye?" He must have been hit by the **** of luck! Found so many good things in one day! what! This is the luckiest day since he was born! When he lived on earth, he liked black clothes very much! Because it fits so well! Also cool! It's the perfect fit for a handsome boy like him!
Since the marks on his wrist appeared after his yellow flower experiment, he quickly pinpointed the source of the black. The black coverage is very strong, and Yin Li believes that even a few leaves can stain the linen with a light color. So Yin Li plucked off the leaves of the yellow flower, and used the same method of concocting safflower to make the juice. These juices are not enough.
Yin Li held two clay pots filled with hot water, one tossed the remains of flowers and juice, and the other tossed rotten leaves and mucus. Hot water can speed up the chemical action of dye extracts. He threw in two more pillow-sized pieces of sackcloth, which he had already cut to use as pillow covers. However, since the sackcloth feels rough, this thing can also be enjoyed by native females. When it's done, send it to Gubei and Mu La.
If something is put in, the effect will not come out immediately. However, the three kinds of root food that Gubei steamed must be cooked. But Yin Li's top priority is not to taste the food, that thing must first be donated to the lamb who tested the poison. He might as well go clean the yard. Withered and smelly plants can be used as fertilizer for plants, but as Gubei said, they don’t know if there are poisonous plants in it, and if one is not good, it will harm the plants that have been cultivated hard!
Yin Li threw them away. The location of the new house was originally relatively remote. There was no one living there, and few people would pass by it on weekdays.
This naturally becomes their natural garbage collection place.
Gubei has already fed the lambs with food, but he did not feed them separately, so even if there is a poisonous plant in it, the lambs will 'vomit blood and die', and then the three foods will be lost. People dare to eat. It was an amazing experiment.
Aside from this, Gubei saw that the lamb had swallowed all the steamed rhizomes, so he happily came back and said to Yin Li, "The lamb eats it all."
"Really? That's great! That's fine!"
Gu Bei always felt that there was something strange in this, but Yin Li's joy infected him. Yes, three more foods! "Wish they were tasty enough."
