Chapter 6455 Still Need to Dig for Wild Vegetables

Jiang Yuanqing was just saying that. Women and children mostly dig for wild vegetables and mushrooms. Catching millet rats is not easy. Millet rats are small, but they are not weak in fighting. They can kick up dust and sand.

Luo Bi responded and called to Wei Tuo, Zhu Xingzhi, and Zhu Xingrong to carry the bamboo baskets away.

“Sorghum meat is delicious.” Jiang Meng followed up: “If you find a sorghum, you can find a small field of millet. Unfortunately, sorghum is hard to find in the mountains, even harder than pheasants or winged hares.”

Upon hearing this, Zhu Xingrong was extremely relieved that they had found a nest of millet rats.

The little boy, Jiang Meng, continued to chatter: "My cousin once led a team to find a nest of millet rats. There were more than a dozen people in the team, but they couldn't find their way because of the earthen trap the millet rats had set up. How did you catch them?"

The child was just being curious, without any ulterior motives.

"Before it could set up its earthen formation, we picked it up and carried it away," Luo Bi chatted with the child.

Back home, the children were busy. Jiang Meng stayed for a while before going home. They were busy eating, and he was dawdling and not leaving. He was craving food, and Jiang Meng didn't want to be laughed at for being greedy.

The pig's trotters and large intestines have been cleaned; the child only needs to wash them a few more times.

We definitely can't finish all this, so we'll put some in the refrigerator. Among the twenty pounds of pork, there was a pork rib. The child cut off a small piece to make rib soup, stir-fry it with mushrooms, and braise a pot of offal.

Five pounds of pork belly were grilled. Once the pork belly was placed on the grill and seasoned, the aroma almost made the child dizzy.

The Jiang family were neighbors, living close by. The aroma of roasted pork belly was so strong that Jiang Yuanqing clicked his tongue upon smelling it: "They really have the heart to eat so much meat!"

Jiang Meng said, "They don't even know to eat sparingly. We still need to dig for wild vegetables next."

Jiang Yuanqing breathed a sigh of relief and called Tao He and the others to discuss the hunt. They had come to Zhuoxing to hunt, and everyone had seen the Tang Ge mercenary group's harvest.

I'm envious; I must hunt as soon as possible.

The women and children said they also wanted to go and collect supplies, as joining the hunting team would yield a greater harvest, much better than searching for meager scraps near the safe zone.

Not only Jiang Yuanqing, but also Rong Peiyan, Han Chong, Lan Rui and others will lead hunting teams to quickly clear a group in the Zhuoxing Mountains. Since their own teams are going into the mountains, the women and children will naturally follow.

Even so, Jiang Meng still wanted to show off to the other little Thunderflame warriors.

Wei and the others were still waiting for dinner ingredients. It was late at night and they hadn't eaten yet. Jiang Meng sniffed around and thought, "Luckily, they're having a barbecue too." Standing in the yard, the children were showing off their team.

"We are a mercenary group formed by the Legion's combat team." Jiang Meng said proudly, "Going into the mountains will definitely yield a great harvest. Tomorrow I won't have to follow the group of women and children to dig for wild vegetables."

Wei Yu was indeed envious: "Can I go into the mountains with your mercenary group?"

"I'll go back and ask," Jiang Meng said as she ran home.

Jiang Yuanqing refused. He could tell that Luo Bi was incompetent and there was no need to befriend her. The young Thunderflame Warriors did have high-level genes, but the other two were too young.

As November arrived, some legions had already begun preparing for winter. Jiang Yuanqing had to think about his own legion and had no time to care about others.

Luo Bi's family had a lavish meal that night, and they ate until very late. After cleaning up the dishes, they all went to rest. For the next two days, Luo Bi and her children spent their time at home drying millet.

Whenever Wei Tong had free time, he and Zhu Xingzhi would go out of the safe zone to chop firewood. They needed firewood to cook good food! (End of Chapter)
