Chapter 130 No One Expected This to Happen
"It's getting late, let's go back first." Shen Xiaoxiao said with all her strength. The scene just now brought her a huge shock, and she still couldn't recover. "Qingshan, pour the iron ore in that basket into the half basket, go pick some pumpkins, and we'll go back."
"Okay." Qingshan silently did what she said. Everyone was not in a very high mood. After all, the scene just now had a huge impact on them. Although they had heard of cannibals, they had never seen them, not to mention that they had seen them eat a living person. This shadow would stay in their hearts for a long time.
All along the way, everyone buried their heads and hurried on the road. They were no longer in the mood to laugh and joke. Even harvesting so much iron ore and finding new food could not make them feel good.
When the moon was on the branches, they returned to the tribe covered with dew.
At this time, the people who went out had already returned, and the food had been prepared for them to come back to eat.
Seeing them, the others hurried to meet them, and after seeing the things in their baskets, they were all excited, "Goddess, is this the iron ore you mentioned?"
"Yes. "Shen Xiaoxiao said weakly.
"Sister, drink some water. I have cooked food for you. You can eat after washing your hands."
"Okay, thank you, Shu." Shen Xiaoxiao smiled reluctantly.
Shu thought she was too tired after walking all day, and didn't think much about it. "Then sister, eat some food and take a bath to rest. You are tired all day." Knowing his sister's habits, he had already boiled the hot water.
"Yeah."
Seeing that they were all listless, the witch doctor thought it was because the journey was too far. They walked all day and carried so many stones back, so they were tired, but they also felt a little strange in their hearts. After all, they had been there before, but they were not like this now.
The witch doctor was puzzled, but still asked them to sit down and eat food, but their next action made her stunned, "What's wrong?" The thirty people who went to find iron ore together stood up and ran to the side to vomit, but their stomachs were empty and they didn't vomit anything.
Now everyone else realized that something was wrong and asked with concern, "What's wrong with you? "
"How come you are like this after going out?"
Someone else joked, "The food we make is not so bad that you will vomit after seeing it."
"It's none of your business." Although Xiao Yan did not vomit like the others, his face was not good either. He said while helping Shen Xiaoxiao to smooth her back.
"What happened? How come you are like this after going out?" The witch doctor asked worriedly. It was not three people but thirty people. She would never believe that nothing happened.
"We encountered cannibals and saw them eating people." Xiao Yan's voice was heavy. The others vomited again after hearing what he said, almost vomiting out all the bitterness in their stomachs. Xiao Yan's face was not good either, his brows were furrowed, and his face was slightly pale, but it was much better than the others.
"Are you sure?" The witch doctor frowned, and the others looked at him nervously.
This is a cannibal tribe, and Xiao Yan and his friends encountered it. Doesn't that mean that the cannibals live near them? Isn't the tribe very dangerous?
"Well. "Don't worry, they are over there with the rocks."
The others breathed a sigh of relief. They were so scared that they thought they saw them near the tribe.
But they couldn't relax too much. After all, no one knew whether the cannibals would suddenly come over like they did. Moreover, they didn't know the cannibals. They would disguise themselves as ordinary people and they wouldn't know.
"Witch doctor, you guys eat it. We feel sick when we see the meat now." Qingshan said weakly. Although the meat was cooked, they still had a shadow. Although they also ate raw meat before, they didn't eat people.
"What are you going to do?" The witch doctor frowned. They were tired all day and didn't eat anything, but now there were no wild vegetables.
Shen Xiaoxiao rinsed her mouth and said, "Cook the pumpkin we brought back. We can just eat some pumpkin." Recently, she didn't want to hear the word meat.
"Pumpkin?" The witch doctor asked in confusion, "Is it the thing in the basket?"
"Yes. "Shen Xiaoxiao nodded. A pumpkin weighs 20 to 30 kilograms, which is enough to eat after cooking. She also anticipated this situation and asked them to dig some sweet potatoes and bring them back, which was enough to eat after cooking.
"How to cook?"
"Wash the sweet potatoes and put them directly in the pot with water to boil. Cut the pumpkin with a knife and take out the seeds inside. Peel off the skin and cut it into small pieces and cook it into sugar water." Although there was no sugar, she had honey, so she could put some honey in it.
"Cook them separately until you can easily insert chopsticks into them. "After a pause, "Don't throw away the pumpkin seeds. You can save them for seeds or fry them to eat."
The others started to get busy, while the thirty people in Qingshan sat aside dejectedly, and the others were no longer in the mood to laugh and joke.
"Sister, what are you doing?" Seeing Shen Xiaoxiao stand up, Ashu hurried forward and asked.
"I'll boil some medicine for them to drink." They were frightened and drank some medicine to calm their nerves.
"Sister, I'll do it. "Ashu volunteered.
"Take it to the witch doctor and ask her to cook it. Cook a pot and let them drink a bowl each." Since she came here, she has been prescribing medicine in pots. If the old man knew, he would probably scold her again.
"Okay, sister, take a break. When the pumpkin is cooked, I will bring it in for you." Ashu said while holding the herbs.
"Well, go quickly."
Ashu left with the medicine in his arms. Xiao Yan brought the prepared honey water over and said, "Xiao Xiao, drink some honey water."
Shen Xiaoxiao didn't refuse, took it and took a few sips, "You drink too."
"Drink it, I'll drink it later." Xiao Yan insisted, but couldn't resist him, so Shen Xiaoxiao had to drink it all, "You drink more, and share it with Qingshan and the others." They were also frightened, and now they are also There is nothing good, so I can only drink this.
"It's been given to them, don't worry." Xiao Yan regretted taking her there today. If he hadn't taken her there, she wouldn't have suffered this fate.
"It's my fault. If I hadn't taken you there, you wouldn't have had to go through this."
"I don't blame you, no one expected this kind of thing to happen." Shen Xiaoxiao shook her head and said, this is an accident, no one wants to encounter such a thing.
"Okay, this matter is over. Don't think too much." Shen Xiaoxiao smiled, "Let's go see if they are ready. The one tastes very good. I guarantee you will still want to eat it." Eat it. When we plant it, I will make sugar for you to eat. It will taste sweeter than honey water."
"good."
When they came out of the cave, they smelled a sweet smell. They didn't know what it was, but Shen Xiaoxiao knew that it was the unique sweet smell of sweet potatoes.
"Goddess, come and see if it's cooked like this?" Ye called Shen Xiaoxiao over. Shen Xiaoxiao took the chopsticks and poked the sweet potato, and it went in immediately. It was the same for several times, "It's cooked." ”
