Chapter 266: 265. Divide meat

Chapter 266 265. Divide the meat

In order to transport all the sand wolf meat and fur back to Wall Village, the three young men had to throw 30 packs of sulfur mines on the way.

Although no one would pass by this Gobi Desert, Charlie still covered these sulfur mines tightly with limestone blocks. A wooden cross, and twenty horses shuttled through this barren land with a load of supplies.

Because the road was delayed for a long time, it took the three young people nearly three days to return to Wall Village. When the horse team full of supplies appeared in the village, almost all the villagers were overjoyed, and everyone crowded around the horse team. Followed the horse team to the threshing ground, next to the threshing ground is the large warehouse for storing public goods in the village. The old village head unlocked the heavy door lock with his own hands, and stored bags of sulfur ore in the warehouse.

Selena was wearing a long starched and somewhat whitish linen dress, with her hair tied on top of her head, holding a sheepskin account book and following behind the old village chief.

At this time, she began to carefully check the number of sulfur mines. When passing by Suldak, Selina walked up to Suldak without any concealment. She was only half a head shorter than Suldak. Staring at him with a hint of tenderness, he stretched out his hand to touch the sleeve he tore when he fought the sand wolf, and there seemed to be countless words in his eyes, but he didn't say anything.

Signa was still hiding in her skirt, the little girl secretly lifted up Selena's skirt, squatted between her legs and smiled sweetly at Suldak, that smile seemed to melt all the ice and snow in the world.

When everyone saw the wolf skins on the horses, they knew that the three young men had encountered sand wolves on the way.

According to Suldak's instructions, it is only said that a dozen sand wolves were hunted and killed by traps set on the way, and the heads of seventeen wolves were neatly placed on the stone table at the edge of the threshing field. Cooking these seventeen wolf skins by hand, he found a huge and thick wolf skin among these wolf skins, and the smile on his face became dignified.

The old village head walked up to those wolf heads and counted them one by one. He saw the wolf head of the Sand Wolf King at the very edge. He slowly sat beside the wolf head, and with his finger, the three scars on the face of the wolf head After stroking him a few times, he took out his pipe and sat there alone smoking a bag of cigarettes silently. Everyone in the village knew that the old village head's appearance meant that he was in a bad mood. At this time, no one Dare to go up to touch the mold.

There are three large stoves on the other side of the valley field. Usually, when the village kills sheep and drinks sheep soup, these three large pots are used to cook soup. Therefore, there is a wooden table next to the large pot. Fortunately, this table is relatively strong. , with the help of the villagers, all the wolf meat was piled on top.

At this time, everyone was waiting for the old village chief to share the wolf meat, but no one was willing to invite the old village chief over.

Natasha and Rita stood among a group of young women, looking at Suldak standing on the valley field from a distance. Little Peter wanted to break out of his mother's embrace, but was held by Natasha, and Sul Standing in front of the meat case, Dak waved to Rita and Natasha, and then went to ask the old village chief to distribute the wolf meat.

There are very few opportunities to eat meat in the village. The land here is barren, and the villagers who have more money can only raise a few chickens and ducks in their yards. As for the large animals, they are the property of the village, and these chickens and ducks are usually reluctant to eat. .

During the year, the villagers of Wall Village would only stew a whole fat chicken on the night of the Harvest Festival, or they would have a good meal when the first heavy snow fell.

Suldak walked up to the old village head, and seeing that the tobacco in his pipe was about to burn out, the old village head finally had some fluctuations in his eyes, and he lifted the wolf king's lips again, but unfortunately the meat here was already stiff, and he couldn't see it. To the whole picture of this canine tooth.

The old village head sighed lightly: "When I was young, I also liked to hunt around with a hardwood bow on my back. At that time, the barren land was still full of seabuckthorn grass, which was far from being as desolate as it is now. A few friends and I rushed to hunt in autumn. , go hunting gray rock iguanas on the Gobi Desert, a gray rock iguana can be exchanged for a bag of wheat..."

Now it seems that a gray rock iguana can still be exchanged for a bag of wheat.

The old village chief pulled a bunch of white hair above the wolf king's eye sockets, and said to Suldak:

"You can see that the hair on its eyebrows has also become gray and white. That's right. When I was young, I saw this sand wolf kill another sand wolf in a duel with my own eyes, and this wound was drawn on its face. , At that time, we thought it would not live long, and several partners around us couldn't hold back for a while, and rushed up to pick up the corpse before it completely cooled down."

The old village chief closed his eyes, as if a believer was praying devoutly.

"Uncle Brett, everyone is waiting for you to divide the meat!" Suldak reminded from the side.

The old village head calmed down his grief and sadness, took a deep breath, and said:

"Let's go, divide the meat!"

He casually knocked the ashes out of the pipe, then stood up and said to Suldak: "Take out half of these wolf meat, cook them and dry them in the sun, and then take them back to the sulfur mine. I'll find someone to cut and cook them." Meat."

He pointed in the crowd, and the selected village women came out quickly. No one complained that they had to work after being selected by the old village head. The old village head gave them eight wolves and asked them to take all the wolf meat. They were all made into dried bacon, and there were eight ordinary sand wolves left. The old village head found another group of village women, and asked them to cut up the wolf meat with bones, and divide the meat later...

Pointing to the last wolf king's body, the old village chief said to Suldak: "Don't share the remaining meat of this wolf king. After you keep a part, it will be of great benefit to your body. The rest Wolf king meat can also be sold in Hailansa City, this kind of powerful monster meat will not be much cheaper than salamander."

Suldak thought of the underground market in Hailansa City. The mage should call the Sand Wolf King who doesn't like the earth system.

Seeing such a large pile of sand wolf meat, Suldak touched his nose in distress, and said to the old village chief: "There is no need to sell it. Since we have started hoarding sulfur mines, we should divide up the meat." , I heard that wolf meat is sour and hard, and it won't be cooked even if it is boiled."

The old village head smiled noncommittally, and then said: "That's right, but it depends on who is cooking!"

After finishing speaking, he turned and told Selena who had completed the account: "Selena... you are in charge of the stew, the village will have a good meal tonight."

Serina raised her noble and swan-like snow-white neck, her big piercing eyes fell on the old village chief, and she happily agreed: "Understood, Uncle Brett!"

She bent down and smelled the smell of wolf meat before turning around to do some preparations.

The old village head stood in front of the meat table, splitting a wolf leg with an axe, and explained to Suldak how to store sand wolf meat: "This kind of sand wolf meat is cured with salt and hung on the fireplace In the flue on the top, it can be stored until this time next year, and when you want to eat meat, you can take a piece out, and this kind of smoked wolf meat is also unique to this area of Pagros Mountain.”

It turned out to be smoked! Suldak thought as he helped the old village chief break off a wolf's hind leg.

The speed of the old village chief's work is not ordinary efficiency. He handed the first wolf leg to an old man who was over half a century old, and said loudly in his ear: "Don't rush to eat when you take it home. Leave it until the door is closed by heavy snow in winter, bake a piece of wheat cake, slice a piece of smoked wolf meat, and you won’t feel hungry all day…”

After the old village chief said this, he looked around the crowd again, and shouted loudly to the young people gathered in the outer circle: "Rita, Natasha, what are you doing hiding behind, come to the front quickly!" Take the meat..."

When distributing materials in the village, they are basically sorted according to the status of the village, so as to prevent the disadvantaged groups from getting the meat first and being hated instead.

When Rita and Natasha heard the old village chief's shout, they were startled at first, and then they confirmed that the old village chief was calling for themselves, and then they walked out of the crowd. Surdak.

The old village chief didn’t cut the ordinary sand wolf meat, he patted the wolf king beside him, and said to Rita and Natasha, “This wolf king meat belongs to you…”
