Chapter 380 A Refreshing and Unique Competition
Chapter 380 A Refreshing and Unique Competition
The celebration lasted until midnight, and Lin Liuyi was sound asleep when he was dragged out of bed this morning.
Before I even opened my eyes, a bowl of meat soup and an egg were shoved into my hands.
No way, what kind person drinks meat soup first thing in the morning? And this egg, did they give her an ostrich egg?
"Eat up, June 1st! After you finish eating, I'll take you to watch today's game!"
Well, she really can't eat anything right after waking up!
"I...I'll wash up first!"
Lin Liuyi put down the meat soup and the giant egg in his hand, intending to go out and clear his head first.
When she returned after tidying up, the broth and giant egg were gone, but there was an extra bowl of steamed egg custard.
"Can you eat this steamed egg custard?" Ming only realized that Liu Yi might not be used to the taste when Lin Liu Yi left awkwardly.
Orcs have become accustomed to eating a lot of meat to replenish their strength.
So they started drinking meat soup and eating giant eggs in the morning, forgetting that Lin Liuyi might not have such a big appetite.
Ming quickly had someone change the breakfast that the little ones in the tribe ate to steamed egg custard.
Lin Liuyi breathed a sigh of relief when she saw the steamed egg custard; she could eat this!
"Okay, I'll eat this!"
However, she remembered that Ming and the others had found wheat, so why didn't they even have a steamed bun?
Ming explained that the orcs love eating meat the most because the flesh of ferocious beasts contains energy, so they eat a lot of meat to celebrate big occasions.
They had wheat stored up, but there were two reasons why they didn't make steamed buns.
One problem is that they have never learned how to grow wheat. The wheat they have now is all wild, and the flour reserves are too small. Moreover, the flour contains less energy than the meat of ferocious beasts, so they still eat the meat of ferocious beasts most of the time.
Secondly, there are too few people in the tribe who know how to make dumplings. Given the orcs' appetites, making dumplings would be a huge undertaking, so they simply stopped making them.
"So how do you eat flour?"
"Let's just make noodles. The rest is for the little ones and the old orcs."
Well, as expected, there are differences between orcs and humans. Human development over thousands of years has been inseparable from carbohydrates.
After finishing their meal, Lin Liuyi followed Ming to a large radish field. Wow, the radishes grown by this tribe are amazing! They're almost as good as those grown with magic potions!
Lin Liuyi was also surprised to see the lush green radishes in front of him, which looked like saplings.
"This is the radish patch we've cleared; we'll be having a radish-pulling competition here soon!"
Lin Liuyi's eyes lit up. A radish-pulling competition—she hadn't seen such a refreshing and unique competition in a long time.
At this moment, all the orcs in the tribe except the warriors gathered around the turnip patch, each one eager to try their hand at it.
Ming arranged a competition spot for Lin Liuyi and said with a smile, "Liuyi, you should give it a try. Maybe you can win."
As soon as the whistle blew to start the game, the orcs rushed into the radish patch, grabbed the radishes tightly with both hands, and pulled them upwards with all their might.
Lin Liuyi followed their example and picked a radish that didn't look particularly thick, but no matter how hard she tried, the radish wouldn't budge.
Looking around at the orcs, they easily pulled out the radishes, and soon a small mountain of them was piled up.
Ah, she didn't believe she couldn't do it!
Lin Liuyi grabbed the radish tops and pulled them upwards with all his might, his veins bulging, but the radish remained motionless.
Just then, a rabbit-like beastman walked past her.
She seemed to notice Lin Liuyi's difficulty and helped him by grabbing the radish greens.
"Thanks..."
Lin Liuyi was about to thank the other person and then pull the radish out with them when, unexpectedly, the radish came out instantly.
The speed was so fast that Lin Liuyi felt as if the radish hadn't moved an inch just moments before.
She looked at her hands in disbelief, then picked another radish and continued pulling.
Very good, it really doesn't budge.
The rabbit-beastman looked at her disapprovingly, then casually pulled it off for her.
Lin Liuyi fell into deep thought. Was the difference in strength really that great?
Then look at those orcs pulling up radishes; even the weakest rodents are pulling up radishes one after another.
Okay, she gave up. In this orc tribe where everyone was over 2 meters tall, she really couldn't do it!
Ming's smile was harder to suppress than AK's; she really hadn't expected Lin Liuyi to be so funny.
Lin Liuyi could only pretend that she hadn't seen Ming's smirk. Well, as long as I'm not embarrassed, it's others who are embarrassed!
As each radish sprouted from the soil, the radish-pulling competition finally came to an end.
In the end, of course, a rabbit-like beastman won the competition; the radishes she pulled were piled up higher than Lin Liuyi's.
Deserved!
"Let's go, June 1st. Let's move on to the next game, egg collecting!"
Ming then led Lin Liuyi to the breeding area, where a group of giant hens were raised, each one as big as a calf. No wonder the eggs she saw that morning were so big!
Chickens leisurely pecked at the vegetable leaves on the ground, each peck leaving a hole.
Then look at the eggs scattered on the ground; each one is captivating.
The rules of the game are that whoever collects the most eggs within the allotted time wins.
Lin Liuyi looked at the hens and felt a little scared. These hens were huge and clucking, and they didn't look like they were going to be messed with.
The orcs beside them were eager to try, as if they were about to rush in and show off their skills.
The game began, and the orcs quickly rushed into the flock of chickens, skillfully picking up the eggs on the ground.
Of course, the hens wouldn't let these thieves who stole their eggs get away so easily; their huge beaks pecked at the orcs.
For a moment, chicken feathers and animal fur flew everywhere as the beastmen tried their best to dodge the hen's attacks.
Lin Liuyi cautiously joined the fray, secretly picking up a few eggs.
Finding no hen had noticed, she continued stealing, becoming increasingly addicted, and eventually forgot about the hen.
Just as she happily picked up another egg, she looked up and found a hen staring at her.
Oh my God!
Lin Liuyi was so frightened that he took several steps back. This guy had a really strong sense of stealing!
But she quickly forgot to marvel, because the hen started attacking her.
If that chicken beak were to peck her, wouldn't it peck a hole in her? As Lin Liuyi dodged left and right, she didn't forget to think about the consequences.
The disadvantage of being small in size has become an advantage in this match.
Taking advantage of his short stature, Lin Liuyi weaved through the flock of chickens, constantly dodging the hens' attacks, and then quickly picked up the eggs.
Gradually, Lin Liuyi collected more and more eggs, and her dodging movements became more and more agile.
Time's up, the competition is over, and Lin Liuyi is still in the top three!
Although she didn't come in first place, she was still very happy, after all, she was just an ordinary person.
Hands on hips, today is another day to be proud of!
