Orc Girl's Tribal Daily Life

Chapter 66 The Secret Experiment Plan

Although Jiang Luoluo didn't understand Mao's true thoughts, seeing Mao's expression, she knew that she should perhaps make some requests to get Mao's help.

This is how Mao will feel relaxed.

Jiang Luoluo found another way to solve the hook vine problem. Mao couldn't help, but coincidentally, Jiang Luoluo did have something that needed someone's help.

Jiang Luoluo had wanted to try stir-frying spicy dried rabbit meat for the first time, but she hadn't had a suitable opportunity because He Baitian didn't dare leave her alone in the cave, worried that no one would notice if Jiang Luoluo was poisoned.

However, if you try to do it in front of Brown, Brown will very firmly stop you.

Jiang Luoluo can do whatever she wants with things that are non-toxic and harmless, but when there is real danger, He, as an adult member of the clan, will be exceptionally resolute.

He stopped Jiang Luoluo from any potentially dangerous actions without even listening to any of her explanations.

For example, Jiang Luoluo can dry, chop, and throw away the "fire flower," but she cannot put it in her mouth to taste it.

After all, in the eyes of the tribe, the fire flower is a poisonous plant, but it is not very toxic and will not kill people, which is why it is allowed to appear in the tribe.

Therefore, Jiang Luoluo desperately needed an "accomplice" to help her escape Hei's gaze and conduct some experiments and trials.

She had to determine whether "fire flower" was really a chili pepper, and whether the so-called poison was a genuine plant toxin or a stress reaction caused by the tribe's digestive system not being able to adapt.

The former requires finding a way to detoxify, while the latter simply requires "adapting" to it.

Not everyone can naturally handle spicy food. For example, in Jiang Luoluo's previous life, her stomach wasn't very good, and she would easily get an upset stomach whenever she ate spicy food. But that didn't stop her from always ordering "mild, extra spicy, medium spicy, or numbing spicy".

Yes, it might upset my stomach, but so what? Just eat it.

Jiang Luoluo's initial target was the little girl happy. The little girl Xi's intelligence made Jiang Luoluo believe that she could understand her meaning well and would also keep it a secret from the adults so that it would not be easily discovered.

Aside from the small rocky hill, the two of them had virtually no opportunity to communicate, making it difficult for the little girl happy to become Jiang Luoluo's capable assistant.

As for the little boy Zhuang, let's not even talk about whether he can understand the meaning of Jiang Luoluo's gestures. I'm afraid that the moment the two of them started the experiment, their parents would come and arrest them. There's no way to hide it from them.

I was originally thinking of finding another opportunity to talk to the little girl, but I didn't expect Mao to come to me on his own.

Jiang Luoluo thought to herself, "Then I won't be polite."

……

"Aren't you going this afternoon either?" Brown looked at Mao with suspicion. The moving should have been finished, so what else did Mao need to do?

Mao guiltily looked away and glanced at the cub beside him, "...There are still some things to pack."

"Alright, then I'll trouble you to take care of Luo again." He didn't suspect anything, glanced at the gloomy weather outside, and handed Jiang Luoluo to Mao.

Then, seeing that it was almost time, He went to the small rocky hill by himself to teach the children.

Watching Brown's retreating figure, Mao looked down at the cub, "...Do we really have to do this?"

The cub didn't even look up, but simply directed him to pick down one of the four dried rabbits hanging next to the water tank.

During this time, he packed all the "fire-roasted flowers and chili peppers", "stinky flowers and scallions", and "white single-clove garlic" into a burlap backpack, and also brought a piece of specially selected white fatty meat.

"Let's go, let's go!" Jiang Luoluo gestured.

This experiment certainly couldn't be conducted in her own home, since the smell of chili peppers was too strong, and Brown would immediately notice it as soon as she returned.

Fortunately, Mao's new home is not far away, making it convenient and hassle-free to pick up and drop off things.

Although the main purpose was to test whether the chili peppers were poisonous, Jiang Luoluo wouldn't go to such great lengths just for this one thing. She also planned to try making rabbit meat at the same time and see how it went.

Of course, it can also be used as an excuse to explain what you did at Mao's house, so as to avoid Brown noticing anything amiss.

Mao's new house had only undergone a simple cleaning, which was slightly better than when Bi Ge and Jiang Luoluo first moved back to their new home, but not by much.

So while Jiang Luoluo was rubbing her hands together by the fire, ready to show off her skills, Mao, just as he and He had given each other, was actually tidying up the house.

However, Mao focused most of his attention on the cubs, watching their every move.

Jiang Luoluo brought a wooden basin from home, filled it with water, and put the whole dried rabbit in to soak.

The dried rabbit meat was exceptionally firm. Jiang Luoluo had just tried it and found it to be as hard as a wooden stick, almost hard enough to be used as a weapon to hit someone.

Therefore, you need to soak the meat in cold water for a day to soften it before cooking.

In fact, Jiang Luoluo has many cooking steps, which she either simplifies or adjusts herself. After all, she is always missing three or four ingredients, and many basic ingredients are not up to standard, so she can only cook what she has.

After placing the basin of water in the corner, Jiang Luoluo took out her target—chili peppers.

Jiang Luoluo had two portions of chili peppers: one portion was dried chili peppers that had already been sun-dried, and the other portion was normal chili peppers that were slightly dry but still relatively moist.

...After all, a long time has passed since the initial exchange, and even the freshest fire flowers cannot withstand the ravages of time and become dry.

Jiang Luoluo carefully picked up the two portions of chili peppers, cut off a piece the size of a fingernail with her own miniature stone knife, and carefully put it into her mouth.

An experiment is an experiment, and Jiang Luoluo has no intention of risking her life by taking a big bite. What if she dies from poison?

If you only eat a small amount, as long as the dosage is not large, many toxins will not cause a major problem.

She had only put it halfway down when Jiang Luoluo's lotus root arm was grabbed.

"I'll do it, Luo." Mao looked at Jiang Luoluo seriously, with a hint of worry in his eyes.

But if you come, I can't be sure if it will taste like what I want. Jiang Luoluo shook her head and refused, then put down the stone knife and patted Mao's arm reassuringly.

Under Mao's watchful gaze, Jiang Luoluo resolutely put the fresh chili pepper into her mouth.

The veins on Mao's arms bulged, and he wanted to stop it several times, but he restrained himself and forced himself to endure it... because this was something that the cub had helped him with.

He has to do it.
