Chapter 104: Corn Sticks

pool of liquid with a gentle squeeze. The liquid hit the ground and instantly corroded it."Get to it!"With a single command, Ang's ten vehicles transformed all their vampires into afterimages, disappe..."Witch"

He wanted to speak but held back.

The witch didn't rush to speak. First, she unwrapped the special leaves covering the wound and carefully cleaned away the green, viscous medicinal residue on it. She then examined the wound thoroughly, ensuring there was no swelling or redness. Since the medication had worked well, it had turned into a transparent ointment. Finally, she covered the wound with a fresh set of special leaves.

After he finished all of that, and half an hour had passed, Wu finally smiled and asked:

"Meng, because someone treated your wound in time, it didn't become infected. Now, all parts of you except your leg have healed very well. How do you feel"

"I feel much better now, but my body and legs are a little itchy."

Let's get straight to the point.

"Well, that's just how wounds heal. New skin is growing. Just bear with it for a bit and don't scratch."

"I've written it down."

He watched the witch intently, about to turn and leave, when he blurted out in a panic:

"When the beast god punished Si Tian, I didn't want to save her. Am I being selfish After all, she is female and my only sister."

“She was punished by the Beast God because she did wrong. She harmed another female and the tribe's most precious young ones. Her actions angered the Beast God, so he took her away. You cannot change the will of the Beast God.”

The wrinkles on Wu Bu's face were all testaments to his wisdom. He didn't want Meng to be burdened by any misunderstandings, so he spoke very directly.

"I understand!"

He bowed respectfully towards the witch, and a look of relief appeared on his face.

Get well soon, you still owe someone a life debt!

After leaving this message, the shaman got up and left the hut where he was recovering from his injuries.

On the other hand, Dú has been out hunting with the bear-folk orcs for the past two days and even received a small clay jar of honey. Ripple expressed great satisfaction.

And the leader of the bear clan, after communicating with the witch Gu, specially invited Lian Yi and Du to meet him.

The chief of the bear clan was already almost three hundred years old, he was about to pass on the position of chief to his son Chang, so when he met Lianyi, his son was also by his side.

"Honorable guests, welcome to the Bear Clan. We are grateful for your arrival and your kindness in rescuing our clansman Meng. Due to the treatment of Meng, followed by a prayer ceremony, and your long journey, we had to postpone our meeting. We hope you understand."

The Japanese man appeared old and wise. His bear-like face, a unique characteristic of his tribe, coupled with his sincere demeanor, easily put people at ease and made them trust his words.

"The chieftain is too kind. It is we who have disturbed you. We are resting well, and we receive fresh food every day and a hot soup to drink. We are very grateful for this."

Ripple smiled and said.

"That's great! This is the hottest month of summer, not ideal for traveling. You can stay here longer."

Hiromu smiled and issued an invitation. His companion, Masayuki, nodded in agreement.

"Thank you for the chieftain's kind invitation. I believe Tai has already told you, I have my own mission and I'm afraid I won't stay in one place for too long."

“I know that, Tai said you have seasonings there that make barbecue more delicious, and two new kinds of food that are convenient to store and filling, and you're willing to share them with us.”

The chieftain finally steered the conversation toward the main point of today's discussion.

"Yes, these are part of my mission, to discover new foods and spread the newly discovered foods to the beast realm."

The ripples didn't beat around the bush; they said it directly.

The chieftain and Chang looked at each other, then the chieftain continued,

"Would it be convenient to tell us now"

As if afraid that ripples would go back on their word.

Of course!

Ripple nodded and then gestured to Dugu, who was following closely behind.

Duo took down the snakeskin bag from his shoulders and began to pull things out of it, while Lianyi explained the origin of each food item, its growth environment, and how to eat it.

Chang Ting listened particularly carefully, wishing he had an extra pair of ears.

After the ripple introduced all the food it brought, Chang asked several questions about things he didn't understand. An hour later, Chang stopped asking questions.

"Could you give me some of the sweet sticks that are a specialty of the Bear Clan's territory"

The ripples directly demanded.

Of course, this kind of thing is sweet when it's in season. As time goes on, it will become more and more old and not as good to eat.

The tribal chief said very generously.

Sweet sticks are loved by both females and cubs, but they have a very short edible lifespan. Even after being picked, the sugary sap inside dries up quickly, making them inedible and impossible to trade. In the bear clan's eyes, these are merely supplemental foods.

Ripple just smiled and then continued:

"Chief, I heard Tai say that sweet canes are a specialty of the bear tribe, and they can be found everywhere within their territory. It's just that their shelf life is short. Although they can be preserved for a long time, they are no longer as delicious, so you haven't made them your staple food."

But I was guided by the Beast God, that sugar cane can be used to make all sorts of delicious food, and it's very filling, able to help young ones grow up healthier.

"Is this really true"

Ri and Chang were surprised, they didn't expect that food which seemed so bland to them actually had such a great effect, but they failed to notice it.

"Nature is true!"

The ripples gave a positive answer again.

This time, Chang ran out without the chief's orders.

After a while, Chang came back with two long corn stalks, each topped with wrapped ears of corn. There were about ten of them, all quite large. Chang gave the whole bunch to Ripple directly.

The ripples peeled off one by one, layer by layer of emerald green skin. A pinch on the plump kernels of corn brought forth a milky white juice, accompanied by a sweet fragrance.

The ripples are now more definite, this is corn, and it's still young corn, also known as tender corn. The kernels inside are like a mouthful of water, you can eat it but it won't fill your stomach. You need to wait for it to fully mature, which is what the orcs call hard and tasteless, only then is it convenient for long-term storage. Of course, there are many ways to eat corn, just waiting for them to discover it.

The lone figure stepped forward, carefully breaking off the remaining candy sticks. He had heard about this kind of food during his time as a wanderer, but he had never actually tasted it. Now, bathed in the light of the ripples, he was able to enjoy such a treat.

"Chief, do you have those old candy sticks that get hard"

The ripples asked directly.

"I'll ask the elders in my tribe, they keep some stored away. They boil them during the cold season, but even after being cooked they are still very hard."

Chang immediately said, and then went out again, bringing back a small animal skin bag of corn kernels. They were well preserved, not damp, but hard as stones.

The ripple tossed a kernel in its mouth, chewed it twice, and confirmed that it was a corn grain collected after being sun-dried. If boiled with water, it would indeed require a lot of firewood and might not even soften. of a guess."Master, you are right, it is indeed the gold mine tunnel."As DuoDuo's transmission fell, LianRi and MoShangChen had already seen the crack.In an inconspicuous spot in the Blue Cap mushroo...
