MTL - Silly Spring Attack-Chapter 18 The guests

In the life of orcs on the Kanda continent, animal bones are an indispensable daily necessities.

On this continent, in addition to the orcs, there are countless fierce creatures who compete with the orcs for living resources, and also use the orcs as prey, as are the same orcs.

So the orcs mostly gathered in tribe.

The meat of the beast is a staple food for the orcs. The fur can be peeled off to make clothes, tents, carpets, bedding, etc., and the bones of the beasts ... are more widely used.

To be more precise, it is the oil made from bones.

As far as Su Ce found, the bones of different beasts seem to have different uses. For example, this kind of flavouring is used when cooking meat, because it is used at every meal and is the most common one. "Boar" bone; it will be ignited before each life, a bone of a bird that produces more oil and is more flammable; the fur used to scrub the fur is a bone oil of antelope ...

In the orc's home, there will be a deep cave similar to a cellar. Inside it is a mountain of bones, all of which are hunted by males, while the beast bones of females will sell some handmade products and planted vegetables. Or as a gift from the suitor, and after having a partner, he will combine his own animal bones with the male's storage.

The caves where the bones are placed are quite close, so Tantu can easily take out the bones.

While waiting for the water to boil, Suze deliberately went to see the "cellar" belonging to Tantu-let it be called like this, which holds all the storages of Tantu, with strangely shaped bones of various colors piled up in small hills and scattered There are also a lot of bone fragments that make it almost impossible to step on your feet, and this so-called cave ... is really very deep.

Su Ce stood in front of the entrance and glanced down, feeling a little dizzy.

"... Tantu, add a wooden ladder here."

Tantu jumped down, grabbed a few black bones, and smiled brightly: "Okay!"

At Su Ze's reminder, Tantu brushed a few bones well before putting them back into the cauldron that had been cleaned and boiled. It didn't take long before a faint scent of oil came.

Then put the meat in the pan and add the salty and spicy seasonings. Because the meat is thicker and harder, it will take longer to cook. After the water is boiled again, add the vegetables ... Finally, put the pan Cover it up.

Finally, after doing this, Su Ce sighed and looked back, and saw Tantu staring at him with great energy. This glance suddenly reminded him of the golden lion he met when he first came to this world ...

Speaking of which the lion and Tantu should be one, but he did not know why there was always no way to combine the two.

No stirring is required at this time.

Su Ce thought for a moment and walked to the man sitting on the ground: "Tantu, how do you time here?"

Observing the sun alone can only work on sunny days, and if the sky is obscured by clouds, doing things will become very troublesome. However, when your country was very old, there were instruments that can roughly divide the time. I do n’t know if it is also here.

Tantu didn't think so much like Su Ce, he just answered straightforwardly: "Use 'fight'."

"... fight?" Su Ce asked, "What's that?"

Tantu smiled, the figure disappeared in a flash, and then rushed back quickly, carrying a funnel-shaped thing in his hand.

It is divided into two parts, with small holes in the middle. The upper part is filled with sand-like particles. Because it is picked up vertically, those particles keep falling down and all fall into the lower part. . When Tantu was holding it with his hand, he was not upside down.

Su Ze recognized this. In the distant ancient Europe, such a timer appeared. It is called an "hourglass". Its appearance is similar to a square, and its width gradually narrows. Later, only about the needle tip is left. The thickness of the gap, when the sand leaks, is about to end.

"This is the 'fight'?"

Tantu nodded: "Yeah, the time is divided by the grid above."

Su Ce also kept the upright posture and lifted the "fight"-somewhat difficult due to the weight--reluctantly placed it in front of the eyes and observed six marks on it.

I heard Tantu saying, "Usually, when the day dawns, let the" Dou "start to exercise, eat a first meal after a grid, eat two more meals, and eat three more meals. On the third meal, the 'fight' stopped. "

Su Ce probably understood that if calculated on the earth, the work of this funnel lasts from 6 am to 6 pm, which is exactly a day time.

As the two talked, the meaty aroma in the cauldron began to permeate, and the white water boiled, lifting the lid a little.

Su Ce quickly hurriedly opened the lid, and he pried it with a slender wooden stick, otherwise, by his own strength, I'm afraid that even if he could open it, he would be burned by the boiling water on his head.

At this time, he began to learn to stir like Tantu.

And as he thought, it really was very laborious.

Tantu wanted to come up to help, but he refused.

The contents of the pot gradually spread out, and the meat and vegetables floated on the water. It felt very beautiful in color. Su Ce put in a seasoning similar to pepper, picked up a little soup with a wooden spoon, and added some spicy flavor. Go in.

Then slowly and continue to cook.

Su Ce looked at the current scale on the hourglass, and then looked at the amount of firepower under the cauldron. With a spectrum in his heart, he stood up and walked to the outside.

When Tantu saw it, he hurried to follow me: "Ace, wait, I'll help you!"

Su Ce did not refuse Tantu's attentiveness. He took out the water in the outer wooden barrel and simmered the chopsticks, and at the same time said to Tantu: "In the future, before using these tools, rinse them again."

Tantu nodded non-stop, he felt a bit troublesome, but compared to Atze, it really is not very important ...

The two men quickly prepared to add pots. At this time, Tantu suddenly moved his ears and paused.

Su Ce looked up: "... what happened?"

Tantu wailed, "Someone is coming outside ..."

If someone comes, why is the expression suddenly so ugly ... Is it an unwanted person? If it is an enemy ... it should not be in the tribe.

"Hi! Tantu!" As I thought about it, a familiar voice came in.

Su Ce is still recognizing, Tantu has jumped out: "How come you come to me!" A bit angry, but the voice is not loud.

The previous voice said, "We are here to see the new members, not to see you ... Besides, you are not partners, shall we come to see brother Ace?"

Then another voice with a similar tone said in a soft, somewhat timid tone: "We ... let's see ..."

"Ah, really." Tantu seemed helpless, "I know, you guys are waiting here obediently, I'll call Ace over."

Su Ce saw Tantu come in again, and looked at him with a little doubt. He doesn't remember any acquaintances here ...

Tantu looked at Su Ce, and shrugged his shoulders: "Ace, do you remember, the twin females we met outside the tribe?"

It's them. Su Ce remembered and nodded.

Tantu was a bit weak: "They said they wanted to play with you ..."

Su Ce froze.

He has been boring since childhood, no one ever wanted to play with him or anything.

Tantu carefully looked at Su Ze's expression: "Aze, if you don't like them, I can take them away, so I will send them back to their parents."

Su Ce shook his head: "It doesn't matter."

Tantu was unsure of the true feelings of his sweetheart and simply said, "Azer, although they are indeed very precious females in the tribe, and males also need to protect them and be courteous to them, In other words, they have their most precious person. "

Su Ce faintly guessed what Tantu said.

Sure enough, she smiled sillyly, and continued, "For me, you are the most precious one. So nothing is more important than you."

Tantu's words are not lies, because he has shown this to him every minute these days together.

Even though Su Ce did have concerns, he had always trusted him-he had never doubted his intentions.

But this frankness still made him a little overwhelmed.

Su Ce turned his back and wiped his hands: "... No, Tantu." Then he turned around and looked as usual, "I don't feel bad about them."

Tantu finally saw that Su Ce was indeed not unhappy, so he laughed: "That's good, Ace, let's go, don't let them wait long."

Su Ce nodded, walked to the door, and then turned back: "... tantu."

Tantu looked up: "Ah?"

"Let them eat today." Su Ce moved his mouth slightly. "You need to wash two more dishes." After turning, he walked out.

And Tantu, he paused for the sweet smile of his sweetheart.
