A Change in Address

Before he could finish speaking, Jiujiu eagerly buried its mouth in the basin. "Jiujiu!"

Looks like this guy isn't afraid of getting burned. Jian Mo: "Alright, let's eat."

This big fish is large and fierce, but its flesh is very delicious, especially the skin. After stewing, it has a very tender and succulent texture with a rich, fatty flavor.

Jian Mo took a bite and found it wasn't fishy at all, just the wonderful taste of gelatinous texture, which went perfectly with the fish.

The broth from stewing fish is very thick, even a little sticky, and the delicious flavor is hidden in the broth.

Jian Mo: "It would be great if we cooked rice or stems; it would taste delicious mixed together."

Wu Jiong ate his fish. "After I finish eating, I'll go back to the lake and catch another one. We'll cook rice together for dinner tonight."

Jian Mo asked, "Are we going to the Rain Rising Tribe later? Should we bring a fish with us?"

Wu Jiong: "Why not? We're already so familiar with each other."

Jian Mo: "Forget it, one fish isn't enough to eat, and bringing too many would be tiring. Besides, I just checked, there aren't many of these fish in the lake. Catching them would probably take a lot of time, so let's not."

Wu Jiong: "Then we'll take a detour back to retrieve it on our way back."

Jian Mo thought for a moment and said, "That works too. We can catch a few more and take them back to make dried fish."

Jiujiu chirped loudly from the side, "Jiujiu!"

I seem to agree.

Jian Mo gently kicked Jiujiu's bottom with her toe. "What are you Jiujiu? You can't catch any fish anyway."

Jiujiu retorted defiantly, "Chirp!"

Wu Jiong: "It said it could lure the fish out."

Jian Mo laughed, "A chirp-shaped fishing device, right?"

After having breakfast by the lake, they packed their things, shouldered their bags, and headed towards the Rain Rising Tribe.

They were very close to the Rain Rising Tribe; they arrived there before noon.

The Rain Rising Tribe remained the same quiet and beautiful little tribe. As soon as they arrived, the people of the Rain Rising Tribe said, "Doctor Jian Mo, Chief Wu Jiong, you've finally arrived! Our chief has been waiting for you."

Jian Mo: "You knew we were coming?"

The people from the Rain Rising Tribe said, "Yes, we know. The Thick Flow Tribe is so close to us, and we even sent them some wild vegetables. The chief said you'd definitely come and see for yourselves out of curiosity."

Jian Mo: "Alright, you guys actually figured it out."

The people from the Rain Rising Tribe smiled and said, "Our chieftain is at home. I'll take you there. You can leave Jiujiu and Ying'ao to us; we'll take them over and settle them in later."

Jian Mo and Wu Jiong had no objections. "Thank you for your hard work."

They went to Qi Ming's house.

Qi Ming was indeed waiting for them at home.

Jian Mo smiled when she saw Qi Ming: "We thought you had already gone to the Cypress Branch Tribe."

Qi Ming sighed softly, "Zhou Zhi doesn't really like sticky things."

It seems this guy's love life has hit rock bottom. Jian Mo didn't waste any time on pleasantries and went straight to the point. "We've noticed you have a lot more wild vegetables here, and we're a bit curious."

Qi Ming: "Come in and sit down. Actually, these aren't wild vegetables; they're all vegetables we grow ourselves."

Jian Mo and Wu Jiong exchanged a glance, and said with great surprise, "How can vegetables grown in this season be so fresh and tender?"

Qi Ming: "Didn't you mention off-season vegetables to me before? You said that as long as the weather is warm enough, they can be grown. We specifically found a warm spot to plant the vegetables."

Jian Mo's eyes widened. "The inspiration came from me?"

Qi Ming: "Yes, you mentioned it to us during a chat once, and we tried it, and it really worked."

Qi Ming invited them to sit down, brewed them tea, and served them nuts as refreshments.

Everyone sat down at the table, Wu Jiong asked, "Growing vegetables is so troublesome, why did you suddenly think of growing vegetables?"

Qi Ming: "Zhou Zhi hasn't had a very good appetite lately, and she's been craving fresh, tender wild vegetables, so I planted some."

Jian Mo said with emotion, "You've put your heart into this."

Qi Ming: "Of course. After the wild vegetables were grown, we couldn't eat them Zhou Zhi, and they aged very quickly, so we gave some to other people in the Cypress Branch Tribe as well. Later, we found that the wild vegetables were very popular and could be exchanged for a lot of supplies, so we deliberately planted more."

Jian Mo: "How are the wild vegetables you planted in the back doing?"

Qi Ming smiled and said, "It's good. If there weren't so many wild vegetables growing, we wouldn't have sent them to the Thick Flow Tribe. Actually, it's quite troublesome to send wild vegetables to their tribe to exchange for supplies, it's too far away, but it's a bit of a waste to just let them rot in the ground."

Jian Mo nodded in understanding.

Seeing his expression, Qi Ming said, "We still have vegetables growing in our fields. I'll take you to see them later. Didn't the Cypress Branch Tribe grow garlic that's less bitter? We planted some too. Now the bitterness of the garlic has been further reduced, and it's quite delicious. You can just pick it and eat it as a vegetable; there's no need to fry it."

Chapter 191 The form of address has changed.

Jian Mo and the others chatted at Qi Ming's house for a while and then decided to go and take a look at the vegetable garden of the Rain Rising Tribe.

They grow off-season vegetables, which are very sensitive to temperature, and their vegetable gardens are not near the village, but in the mountains.

Even if the orcs revert to their animal forms, it will still take them some time to get there.

Qi Ming, transformed into a giant Pallas's rabbit, explained to Jian Mo and the others, "There are hot springs on the mountain, and the valley is especially warm, so you can grow vegetables there. If it weren't on the mountain, you couldn't grow vegetables."

Jian Mo: "Is the soil warm too?"

Qi Ming: "No, that doesn't count. We don't dare to plant vegetables in soil where you can clearly feel the heat; vegetables won't survive in that kind of place. We have to choose a place far away from the hot springs for the vegetables to grow well."

Jian Mo nodded to indicate that she understood.

The Pallas's rabbits ran through the mountains, leading the way, with the giant wolf following behind them.

They crossed two mountains before finally reaching the valley where they grew vegetables.

This valley is not a traditional valley at the bottom of a mountain, but a valley halfway up the mountain, surrounded by mountains. If it weren't for the locals leading the way, Jian Mo and her companions might not have been able to find it.

The valley is not large, with a waterfall on one side and several pools inside, some of which are hot springs and some are cold springs.
