An Outsider Witch Doctor

Jiujiu appeared out of nowhere, its two front paws gripping the kitchen door, drooling as it watched them cook inside.

After the scallion pancakes were made, Jian Mo didn't have time to cook anything else. He took one pancake, tore it in half, gave one half to Wu Jiong, and kept the other half for himself.

Jiujiu anxiously outside, making whimpering sounds from its nose.

Seeing that it was about to speak, Jian Mo smiled and gave it a slightly cooled scallion pancake.

After getting the scallion pancake, Jiujiu didn't go back to its nest. Instead, it sat in the yard, holding the pancake with its two front paws and slowly munching on it.

Jian Mo Wu Jiong, "How is it?"

Wu Jiong stared at the scallion pancake. "It tastes completely different from raw scallions."

Jian Mo said contentedly, "That's right, cooked scallions are especially fragrant, and they'd be delicious in scallion oil noodles too."

After finishing the scallion pancakes, Jian Mo continued cooking.

Onion-baked pork is also one of Jian Mo's favorites. When it was served and tasted, this baked pork basically replicated 80% of the taste of baked pork belly on Earth. The remaining 20% was probably due to the sauce being wrong.

It smells so good.

This sizzling, oily meat, infused with the aroma of scallions, is simply an unparalleled delicacy.

Jian Mo Wu Jiong, "How do you feel?"

Wu Jiong: "It's delicious, unlike any other delicious meat."

Jian Mo understood. "Each has its own unique flavor?"

Wu Jiong nodded. "Yes, the fish you steamed, the sausages you made, and the hand-shredded jerky you made were all delicious."

Jian Mo: "That's right, we have even more delicious food where I'm from, especially during festivals, there's simply more food than we can eat."

Wu Jiong: "What does 'celebrating holidays' mean?"

Jian Mo thought for a moment, "Probably some days for celebration?"

As she spoke, Jian Mo used the Dragon Boat Festival, Mid-Autumn Festival, and Spring Festival as examples.

Wu Jiong: "If that's the case, then we have the Ten Thousand Beasts Festival in spring, the Tree Shade Festival in summer, and the Hunting Gathering in autumn, that counts too."

Jian Mo know what the Ten Thousand Beasts Festival and the Tree Shade Festival were, but she objected to the Hunting Gathering: "The Hunting Gathering is an event, not a festival."

Wu Jiong: "The Hunting Gathering will also include delicious food and celebrations."

Jian Mo: "I still don't think so. Wait, what is Ten Thousand Beasts Festival? Is it over already?"

Wu Jiong: "It's a day for single orcs and sub-orcs to gather together, get to know each other, and have fun, mainly to find partners. It's not that festival yet; we'll have to wait until the second full moon."

After Wu Jiong explained, Jian Mo realized that everyone was busy hunting and gathering at the beginning of spring to fill their stomachs after a long winter of hunger and to recuperate.

On the second full moon, everyone will gather together to celebrate, which also helps single orcs and sub-orcs get to know each other.

Wu Jiong calmly said that people are particularly eager to find partners in the spring, hence this festival.

Jian Mo understand; spring is the season for reproduction.

Because they had discussed this topic during dinner, after finishing their meal, the two of them packed their clothes and prepared to go out for a shower.

Jian Mo brought tooth powder made with charcoal powder, and the two of them brushed their teeth thoroughly and washed them clean.

It has to be said that the Orcish continent is vast and sparsely populated, making it quite exciting to venture out.

Jian Mo lay on the large rock, looking at the moon and stars overhead, which were not yet full, and was satisfied with this occasional nighttime exercise.

Spring is indeed the season of rejuvenation.

Jane thought Jian Mo.

Chapter 82 The Foreign Witch Doctor

Jian Mo cherished this batch of onions that he had finally managed to obtain.

Seeing that the onion still had roots, he chose a day to plant it, hoping it would take root and sprout in the Riverside Tribe soon.

After planting the onions, I watered them twice, but before the leaves had even started to grow, insects appeared.

These tiny black dots of insects firmly cover the back of the leaves, and even if the little ones guard their fields every day, there's nothing they can do.

Jian Mo tried to clean it herself several times, but the more she cleaned, the more there was.

Jian Mo was exasperated and muttered to Wu Jiong, "Now I understand why no one wants to plant anything. Planting this lousy crop is a recipe for disaster. It's better to gather crops; if you can gather them, you bring them home, and if you can't, so be it. It doesn't require much effort anyway."

Wu Jiong gently squeezed the back of his neck with his warm hand, comforting him, "Let's think of another way."

Jian Mo: "What can we do? We can't possibly peel off the bugs one by one from each leaf, can we?"

Wu Jiong nodded. "If there's really no other way, I'll do it."

The bugs were annoying, but because Wu Jiong was on his side and willing to take some concrete actions to help, Jian Mo felt much better.

Jian Mo leaned closer and nuzzled his head against hers. "Let me think about it some more."

On the way home, Jian Mo kept thinking of a solution.

Min Dang they encountered Qing Kuo and Min Dangdang, they noticed that Jian Mo's expression was not quite right, so they stopped in their tracks.

Qing Kuo asked, "Did you have a fight?"

Jian Mo waved her hand. "It's not that serious, why would we argue?"

Qing Kuo laughed, "You scared me. Why are you so sullen if we didn't argue? Did something happen?"

Jian Mo sighed, "There's a problem with the crops in the field. I don't know why, but as soon as the weather warms up, insects start appearing on the leaves."

"So that's what it is," Qing Kuo said nonchalantly. "The leaves in our field also get bugs; we just pinch off the leaves."

Jian Mo was even more frustrated. "There are only a few leaves left. If we pluck one today and another tomorrow, it's hard to say whether the crop will even survive to bear fruit."

Qing Kuo: "If we can't grow them, we can just go out and gather them. We won't go hungry."

Jian Mo waved her hand. "No, it's too much of a failure to have any harvest after planting once. I can't bear that frustration. I'll think of another way."

Qing Kuo and the others laughed, "If you come up with a solution, remember to tell us."

Jian Mo: "Don't worry, I definitely won't leave you behind."

After thinking about it for two days, Jian Mo saw the Spring Thunder Egg while organizing the medicinal herbs at home. She paused for a moment and suddenly remembered all kinds of pesticides.
