Chapter 271: Half a month, haircut and shampoo. (1/2)
In a twinkling of an eye, Yan Mo, used Wen Tian, concluded that it was now mid-June and that summer had come.
Unlike the Jiu Yuan, the temperature here is not like the hot summer after a short spring. The temperature in the forest is suitable. Except for the dryness and heat from noon to about 3 p.m., other periods are more pleasant, and even a little cold sooner or later in the evening.
According to Wen Tian, it was almost mid-April when they left The Jiu Yuan. It has been two months since then.
In a small valley, there are two rows of not-so-tall earthen houses facing each other across the stream. There are earth walls between the earthen houses. There are hardly any doors except the simplest opening. There are only curtains woven by animal skins or weeds. This is a temporary dwelling.
Ten days ago, Meng brought back three snakes.
It was a little difficult for snake people to get into the forest. Even when Yan Mo when to pick them up personally. The Mandrill elder didn't want them to come in.
”Ouch-! Snake! Big snake! Don't let these slippery worms enter my forest! Let them go! ”The Mandrill seems to hate snakes so much that he is inexplicably irritable at the sight of the snake man's thick tail.
”Are there no snakes in your forest?” He could see a lot.
The Mandrill put out a pair of ”just because there are many, they can't finish eating, and they are tired of eating.”
”They are my friends. As I said, we Jiu Yuan and all things are friends. I can a.s.sure you that they will not harm your people when they enter the forest.”
”No!” The Mandrill elder was not allowing them. It is not afraid of poisonous snakes and pythons, but its people are afraid. Every year, many of its people die of poisonous snakes.
”A kettle.”
”No!” The Mandrill elder said he was not so easily tempted.
”A jar.”
”No! Earthen jar? What's that? Keeping water?”
”More than water. Have you ever heard of monkey wine?”
The Mandrill said he had never heard of it.
Yan Mo sincerely explained: ”Wine is a better drink than water, which could only be drunk by G.o.d, but a big monkey stole a little brewing method from G.o.d. It is said that the big monkey has only one foot.”
Uh huh? The Mandrill raised his ears.
”The monkey brewed the monkey wine with the brewing method it had stolen. Although the taste was not as good as that of G.o.d's drinking wine, the monkey wine tasted much better than that of pure water. Its people liked it and worshiped it more. But although the big monkey brewed monkey wine, because it had nothing to put it in, it could only be stored in tree holes. As a result, it flowed into the soil and was stolen by other birds and animals. Later, it was so angry that it no longer brewed monkey wine.”
The Mandrill elder wondered, ”Monkey's wine is good?”
”You will know once, especially in winter, when you drink it, you'll get warm all over, and you won't be afraid of the cold.”
The Mandrill elder moved.
Yan Mo continues to strongly recommend monkey wine. ”Do you pick a lot of fruit every autumn, but those fruits cannot be put in winter, and they will soon go bad?”
The Mandrill elder nodded subconsciously.
”Monkey wine can solve the problem of fruits being wasted.”
”How to make monkey wine? You know?”
”I need to ask the ancestor G.o.d first. If he agrees to tell you how to make monkey wine, I will tell you.”
The Mandrill elder was angry, ”Oh! Why don't you say that?'
”I don't know, but I need to ask the ancestors first. But I can give you the jar of liquor first. If there is no jar, it is useless for you to learn how to brew monkey wine, because you have nothing to fill, and the brewed wine is easy for G.o.d to take away and drink.
”Well? G.o.d will steal my drink?” The Mandrill was surprised.
”Because monkey wine tastes special, even G.o.d likes it. But if you have the jar I gave you, there will be the marks of the ancestors on it, so that they will not steal alcohol at will. Later, you will find that it is not easy to reduce the amount of wine in the jar, but if you use other things, the amount of wine will soon be less.”
The Mandrill elder confused him. ”Jar, two... No, three!”
”OK!”
So the three snakes finally got into the forest.
Bai Yan laughed at Yan Mo and Yuan Zhan and said, ”I knew you guys would be okay. What are you going to do now? ”
”If you can go back to the Jiu Yuan, you can't set up a new tribe on the land.” Yan Mo did not hide his ideas.
”Enough people. Where is the land? Here?” This is a time when you can occupy the land arbitrarily as long as you are strong enough. Bai Yan is not surprised that they think so.
”The ancestors told me that through the forest there was a land suitable for tribes. But if I can, I still hope to go back to The Jiu Yuan.”
Bai Yan also wanted Yan Mo and others to go back to The Jiu Yuan. He didn't know what was on the land through the forest, but he thought there would never be any red salt there.
”I've almost figured out how to get back now, but it will take a little time.” Yan Mo has a clear mind.
Bai Yan believes that the teenager has already created many miracles in The Moer-Gan Market. And he has also seen the human face bird, which will can grow bigger and smaller. Without so many slaves, Yan Mo and others could go back and forth easily. With the size of the giant bird and probably not too many other than the three of them, he is very relaxed and has a good prospect for this trip.
”By the way, you talked about monkey wine and jar with Mountain G.o.d before. [Cough], if the ancestor G.o.d agrees, can you teach us too?”
Yan Mo turned back and smiled mysteriously. ”Monkey wine cannot be taught. It's the wine G.o.d gave to monkeys. No one can brew it except them.”
”Ah.” Bai Yan expressed regret.
The Mandrill, who came all the way to eavesdrop on the news, could not help scratching his face. He had to get the methods of making monkey wine and the jars for filling it.
The three snakes were guests, and Yan Mo allowed them to move freely, but Bai Yan said that they came here to help them, so that Yan Mo did not have to be polite and let them help arbitrary.
Yan Mo was glad that the three men knew the current affairs, and he also gave them enough respect.
Two days later, DHe led more than 200 The Salt Mountain Tribesmen to the valley.
Yuan Zhan and Yan Mo did not appear directly, and they were all arranged to be handled by DHe and Shen-Gu.
The Salt Mountain Tribesmen had uneasy and doubtful faces, and they were closely surrounded by the chief and their priest, they couldn't even dare run anywhere. They did not understand how the man named DHe could lead them to walk in the dense forest. The big red monkeys not only did not attack them, but also showed them the way. Even because the big red monkeys did not follow them all the way, so that no one was left behind or disappeared for unknown reasons during their journey in the forest.
Then they saw many warriors in this small valley! Although these warriors did not have 5th rank, they also had a 4th rank warrior, and their chief was only 4th rank.
