Chapter 999: Extra - Wen Ye Couple 15
The two Beastmen didn’t dare to rebut Ye Qiao’s words, only looking at Wen Jue with pitiful eyes, resembling two little wives who had been wronged.
Wen Jue shook his head helplessly.
He waved to the two Beastmen, "Go back first, I’ll handle this."
On hearing this, the two Beastmen immediately shouldered the cleaned Tusk Beast Meat and trudged away, leaving behind a pile of large intestines that hadn’t been dealt with in time.
To be honest, that pile of intestines was sticky and slimy, and indeed looked a bit disgusting, and faintly, one could still smell a foul odor; but Ye Qiao’s mind soon drifted to the deliciousness of spicy intestines, and she simply couldn’t let it go.
She glared at Wen Jue with a huff, "If you don’t believe me, forget it, but don’t you dare eat it once I’ve made it!"
Wen Jue couldn’t help but laugh, "I didn’t say I didn’t believe you, I believe everything you say."
Ye Qiao was half in doubt, "Really?"
Wen Jue hummed softly, then crouched down by the stream to start dealing with the pile of large intestines.
The intestines were full of partially digested food, colorful lumps scattered throughout, and the fermentation of the intestinal mucus made the smell quite overpowering.
The pungent smell was pervasive, and whether it was because her body was naturally that of a female Beastmen, or because of her pregnancy, the odor made Ye Qiao feel nauseous.
Wen Jue stopped his work and looked at Ye Qiao, "Go over there and wait for me, I’ll be done soon."
Ye Qiao shook her head, "No need, I’ll wait for you right here."
She wasn’t an insensitive person, especially since she was the one who wanted to eat the intestines. Although her condition made it inappropriate for her to handle them, it wouldn’t be thoughtful of her to leave someone else to do it on her behalf.
Seeing this, Wen Jue didn’t insist, but instead quickened his work.
Perhaps one becomes accustomed to the smell if it’s unpleasant enough for long enough.
Apart from an initial few retches from Ye Qiao, she didn’t react at all during the subsequent period.
Moreover, as the intestines were cleaned, they returned to the familiar white and tender appearance.
Thinking back to the deliciousness of stir-fried spicy intestines, her mouth was involuntarily flooding with saliva.
"Let’s go, when we get back, I’ll show you my skills!"
Wen Jue hurried forward, grabbing the intestines in one hand and supporting Ye Qiao with the other, and they both returned to the Tribe together.
In the Tribe, many Beastmen had already started roasting meat around the bonfire.
The previously cleaned Sabertooth Beast, except for the fattest part of the hind legs, had been nearly completely divided, leaving only a skeletal frame, plus the heart, lungs, liver, and stomach that Ye Qiao had specifically requested.
The Sabertooth Beast now lay peacefully on the cleanly washed large green leaves, with some unrefined fat placed near the edges of the leaves.
Of course, the fat was also something Ye Qiao had specifically asked the Beastmen to leave behind.
The air was filled with the aroma of roast meat, which tantalized Ye Qiao’s senses.
She came to the stove and asked Wen Jue to help bring over some fire embers to start a fire under the pot.
The pot was conjured by Wen Jue’s superpower since it was made of metal, it heated up very quickly.
She slowly added the fatty trimmings that the other Beastmen were reluctant to eat into the pot.
"Sizzle—"
A puff of white smoke rose, and Wen Jue struggled to hold back from stepping forward to pull Ye Qiao away.
The tribesfolk quietly nibbled on their roast meat, their gaze centered on Ye Qiao.
Once the initial pungent smell dissipated, Ye Qiao used two peeled long sticks to stir the piece of fat in the pot back and forth.
The oil was gradually rendered out, and the aroma began to grow richer.
"Slurp... What is this smell, it’s so aromatic," one of the tribesfolk exclaimed.
"Yeah, can the white meat really be this aromatic?" another wondered aloud.
White meat was the term used by the Beastmen for fat.
