Chapter 714 - 713, Reception_1
At dawn the next day, Bowman and Hei Tu were woken up by the tribesmen. After washing up in the yard, they sat inside the house waiting for news from Shaman Ji Nuan.
"Bowman, Hei Tu!" a familiar voice echoed in the courtyard.
"It’s Uncle!" Bowman jumped up in delight and darted out of the house, followed by Hei Tu.
True enough, there stood a tall Orc figure in the courtyard, carrying a huge beast over his shoulder. Seeing Bowman and Hei Tu come out of the house, a smile spread across Bosson’s face: "Come and have some food. I’ve brought it over for you."
Bowman and Hei Tu stepped forward to take the beast from Bosson’s shoulder, laying it on the smooth, clean stone platform in the yard.
The game had been cleaned, the fresh meat enticingly displayed on the stone platform.
The two exchanged a glance as they took Bosson’s game. If they remembered correctly, Watson Tribe’s food always involved using a Fire Seed to cook or a complicated process to make it tastier.
However, just like the other Mountain Forest Tribes, the Gru Tribe still consumed raw meat. Although Shaman Ji Nuan once said that eating raw meat would easily make them sick with parasites, they weren’t very skilled at using Fire Seeds. There was an incident when a tribal member attempted to roast meat and nearly burned down the tribe.
After that event, no one in the tribe dared to attempt cooking with Fire Seed.
Bosson chuckled: "Let me do it then. You guys just help me."
He then approached, drew a forearm-length black weapon from his waist and swiftly sliced the prey into several neat pieces.
The cuts were clean and without any residue.
Bowman, Hei Tu, and the Orc tribesmen couldn’t help but gasp in admiration. What a mighty weapon.
"Come on, I’ll teach you how to roast meat."
He ignited the fire pit in the courtyard, adding large logs, then skewered the meat pieces onto cleaned sticks and suspended them over the fire pit: "You have to keep turning the skewers as I am, to prevent the meat from charring."
The Orcs held their skewers, looking fearfully at the fire in front of them.
Seeing their cowardly expressions, Bosson scolded: "What’s there for powerful Orcs to fear? Our Fire Seed is confined to pits like this, it won’t ignite at will. Go ahead and roast."
Swayed by Bosson’s confidence, they finally managed to overcome their fear and gathered around the fire, turning their skewers of meat.
Gradually, the bright red meat darkened and started to release an alluring aroma.
"Alright, the meat is done. Take it down."
With the roasted meat collected, Bosson turned to them: "You can eat the meat now. Try it."
Bowman and Hei Tu picked up a piece of the roasted meat they had cooked themselves, popped it into their mouths, and savored the flavor of roasted meat that instantly filled their mouths - their eyes sparkled in amazement: "The game I cooked is so tasty!"
As they reached out to take another piece, they were stopped by Bosson. He produced two small leaf packs from his chest and opened them. He sprinkled the powders evenly over the roasted meat.
Then, looking rather smug, he turned to them: "Now try again."
