Go Through the World of Beasts and Be a Stick

After learning from Wen Lie that the table salt was really extracted from salt water, Miao was a little strangely excited.

Thinking of the unpleasantness he encountered in the salt tribe last time when he changed the salt, his face was strange.

But immediately, he stared at his great witch with scorching eyes, and he believed that if the other party said that salt can be made with salt water, then the other party would definitely be able to do it!

Then they don't have to go out to the salt tribe to change salt.

Moreover, if he goes out to change salt, he will leave non-orcs in a relatively safe valley, and he can't help but worry. Without him, if Wencheng was attacked by wildmen, could his non-orcs escape?

Miao dare not bet.

But if they can make salt by themselves, then all the problems will be solved at once.

Wen Lie didn't answer his question first, but asked: "What kind of salt water does the salt tribe use to make salt?"

It should not be sea water.

Even the coarse salt extracted from sea water will not be so dark in color, and it also has an indelible bitter taste.

Miao shook his head and said that he did not know, frowned, and introduced him to the Shark Salt Tribe. "Although the orcs of the Shark Salt Tribe are Shark people, they can live in water, but they can’t survive in salt water, and they are in human form. At the time, they still lived on the ground, because they had to exchange salt with other tribes."

So they built the tribe by the river where the water is not salty, while satisfying the needs of the animal form, they live by catching fish in the river. Because of their extraordinary fishing ability, people never lack food.

But fish are unpalatable. As people on the whole continent become more and more accustomed to cooked food, the life of eating and drinking blood has gradually become a state affair. Even the mackerel tribes who live by hunting fish and feed on fish have begun to repel the fishy smell of fish. Bitter.

As a result, the tradition of the salt tribe in exchange for other food was formed.

This is something later. At the very beginning, the Shark Salt Tribe was not called the Shark Salt Tribe, but the Shark Tribe.

In the orc form of the mackerel tribe, the upper body is a human, the lower body is a fishtail, and it is good at water and can swim. It has strong fighting power in the water, and has inherent talents and skills that allow them to easily capture water creatures. However, when they transform into a human form, all their abilities have disappeared, and their power is no different from ordinary humanoid orcs. Even because the animal form is hydrophilic, once they land in the form of a beast, their energy will be consumed rapidly, making it difficult for them. Maintain the animal form on the shore.

This kind of helpless ability allows them to avoid the invasion of foreign tribes in the water, but they can't attack other tribes, so they slowly began to seal themselves up.

And because of their living habits, the Shark Tribe is completely different from the Orcs of the mainland. In addition, most of the Orcs in the Shark Tribe have beautiful faces, just like females, but for people who are used to seeing the rough faces of the Orcs, they feel that they are not male. Non-female, uncomfortable looking at indescribable.

Everyone thinks that they are ugly, so they don't have much contact with the mackerel tribe.

At that time, the mackerel tribe was not popular with non-orcs who generally liked burly and tall orcs. At one time, the fertility was reduced to the lowest level. There were no new cubs in the tribe for more than ten years.

Of course, even now, the orcs of the salt tribe still occupy the top of the continent's most unpopular orcs list, and the tribe maintains a low birth rate of cubs.

But because they have salt, the surrounding tribes are beginning to be willing to make friends with them. In these tribes, some non-orcs see that the orcs of the salt tribe can use salt for them in exchange for various foods, and they are still willing to move over. , And the orcs of the opposing tribe became partners.

Therefore, although the birth rate of cubs in the salt tribe is low, it is still stable anyway, which makes everyone quite satisfied.

The people who live outside are also satisfied. Before the salt tribe, they went to change the salt, and they had to go to the salt tribe farther north of the mainland.

Now that the nearby tribes have salt, there is no need to travel thousands of miles to the north of the mainland. Of course everyone is happy.

And the reason why the Shark Tribe was renamed Shark Salt Tribe was because at a grand gathering of East and West tribes at that time, the news that the Shark Tribe could change salt was completely spread out. Probably, everyone was too impressed with the salt. Time is often called the salt tribe.

Everyone is used to the later "nicknames", and even only knows the nicknames, but not the sharks.

After all, before that, there were few people willing to interact with the Jade Tribe.

When the patriarch of the Shark tribe saw it, he simply made a feast for the gods and officially changed the name of the Shark tribe to the salt tribe, which was more conducive to the spread of salt in their tribe.

After listening to Wen Lie, he seldom laughed out: "What kind of eyes are you, you will actually think that mermaids are ugly."

It can only be said that it is really a bit miserable for the mermaid to live in this orc continent with a single aesthetic.

He listened with questions along the way, which really made him think out a little.

Since the salt tribe does not live on the seashore, the salt they extract should not be sea salt.

Combined with the characteristics of this kind of salt, it reminds Wen Lie of a kind of salt—well salt.

And it is unprocessed well salt.

In ancient China, not all salt producers dried salt from sea water. Due to the inconvenience of transportation and geographical location not close to the sea, people in the distant sea areas came up with a way to extract salt from well water.

It's just that this salt water, called brine, shows a different color due to impurity ions.

The more common ones are yellow and black.

Wen Lie guessed that the brine raw material used by the salt tribe should be black brine. The black bittern is dried directly, which is probably what the salt they eat now.

As for what the other party used to turn the black halogen into white and remove the colored ions from it, he has no way of knowing.

But he felt that he had to go out with Miao and the others to change the salt to find out.

"To extract table salt from seawater, you just need to drain the water to dry, but the salt that comes out like this is coarse salt, and it’s also prone to damp and agglomerate. Salt, something else is needed.” The salt tribe may have it.

As Wen Lie spoke, he was eager to try, and wished to follow Miao and the others to the Yuyan Tribe now!

Mermaid! Table salt that is neither bitter nor astringent!

But he still resisted it. They could make coarse salt to eat first, and for higher-level pursuits, wait until there is no shortage of salt and no shortage of food.

Salt is a very important thing here, and the high-intensity manual labor of the orcs is absolutely inseparable from them.

And the cost of changing the salt from the outside... In their current situation, they simply can't take out the extra food to change the salt.

As for their specialties, such as clay pots, meat marinating methods, frying methods, and jams, they are not particularly lacking in food and sweets, and they are probably not exchanged with them. After all, they can’t even fill their stomachs. Where is the mood to pay attention to these.

But now they have plenty of fish here. It is a very profitable idea to process the fish in their own way, but the long-term preservation of fish also requires salt.

"So let's not change the salt. We will look for the junction to the sea in the water pool. We will make coarse salt first, and then pickle various foods. When the Nuan Ji tribe meets, we will take it and change things!"

Although the high tide movement brings seawater to the pool, the salt content of the pool is still too small. With the limited time for rising tide, it is basically impossible for them to produce a lot of salt from the pool.

Can only look for the sea.

As long as he can find the sea, he can make coarse salt.

He believes that even if it is coarse salt, its appearance is too white compared to black salt, it will definitely be liked by everyone!

At that time, there will be more opportunities to exchange for other things at the tribal assembly.

Wen Lie has seen in the "Guide to Planting Other Worlds" that there is a staple food on the Orc Continent!

Relying on the power of a few of them to find these foods is too difficult, but the tribal gatherings held by all the tribes across the continent are definitely his best place to find treasure.

He originally planned to participate in tribal gatherings after the warm season, but suffered from the valuable "specialties" that were not available for exchange, and he has never come up with a good solution.

but now!

As long as they can find the sea and extract the coarse salt, salt and specialty food, all the problems will be solved!

Miao couldn't wait more than him, took off the animal skin on his body, jumped, and jumped down like a fish with a "plop", "I'll look for it below!"

The people who were fishing next to them saw that the patriarch went into the water again, and they became more excited. They often caught fish recently. They learned to swim early and were not afraid of the water anymore. They took off quickly and jumped quickly, and jumped cleanly like dumplings.

Speaking column: "..."

Most of his excitement was gone, and he wanted to call people over to explain the salt making, and ask people to follow through.

After a while, Wu and the others returned, and when they saw everyone in the water, they became anxious. In the matter of grabbing food, there was never any brotherhood at all. They vomited a few swear words and got rid of the animal skins. diving.

Fortunately, Wen Lie shouted in time this time and stopped them, "Come here!"

"All transformed and called people up! Xi, you go call Luo Luo and the little guys, and the priests! Call everyone to the stone field."

Wu Wu looked at each other, but seeing Da Wu's serious expression, they didn't dare to ask questions, so they hurriedly split up and shouted.

Soon, the orcs ran back to the stone field all in water, and when everyone was there, Wen Lie stood on a large rock, slightly looking down at the unknown people underground, and staring at the orcs standing next to them on the flat ground. At a glance, he made a quiet gesture, "Calling everyone here today is a very important thing to say."

When I heard that there was something about the sea, the salt drying, and the search for the entrance to the sea, everyone's comments were completely overwhelmed.

In the memory of the orcs living inland, they have never seen the "sea" depicted by the great witch. Where the footprints of the orcs on the mainland can be found, there are rivers, mountains, lakes, pools, and more, just The salt water in which the salt tribe has been taught amazing skills, but the sea, the sea full of salt, is an unimaginable existence for them.

That is a miracle.

Everyone was extremely excited. The impact the house gave them had not passed. At first they learned that there was boundless salt water waiting for them to discover and dig. They were indeed Miao’s men. They were on the spot. To go diving, the sensational posture is no less than a show jumping into the river to commit suicide.

Fortunately, their patriarch had already recovered, and a bunch of ice hockey pucks were smashed into the past. After they were honest, they said, "Listen to the big witch."

Miao also thought that since the sea is called the sea, it must be very big, at least much larger than this pool in the valley. Although they can water and have strong physical strength, it is impossible to cross long-distance currents. Did it. So, how do they get there when they find the entrance to the sea?

It seemed that he had guessed what he was asking, Wen Lie couldn't hold back the serious expression on his face, and said excitedly: "We build ships!"

There are many towering ancient trees, just dig a hole in the middle of a section!

Knowing what the ship was, everyone was boiling again.

They looked up at the non-orcs standing on the boulder, their great witch, the blood and gratitude in their hearts was beyond words, everyone knelt down, bowed their heads, and knocked their chests with one hand to show their eternal loyalty and follow.

"Dingdong, you have a new reward entry, please check it carefully."
