Quick Transmigration: Underdog Turns out to be Untouchable Chapter 499 - 490: The Great Chief - 8 Li Ying Personally Re

Although Yan Shuangshuang was a modern person, she had experienced the rebirth of such a bizarre thing, so she naturally had more reverence for the talk of ghosts and gods.

Therefore, at this mont, Yan Shuangshuang also followed the customs and knelt beside Rain to give gratitude. However, while they were thanking the Heavenly God of this world, Yan Shuangshuang was thanking the Goddess who gave her rebirth.

Yan Shuangshuang prayed with sincerity even more than the mbers of the Power Tribe, earnestly bowing to the Goddess. Without the Goddess’s favor, she wouldn’t have the chance of rebirth, and without the Goddess’s rcy, she couldn’t have obtained a healthy body.

If not for eting the Goddess, she wouldn’t have been able to discover the mystery of the salt fruit. She would be just like these primitive people, disdainfully ignoring the withered salt fruit due to its unpleasant taste and thus missing the salt right in front of her.

After sincerely kneeling in prayer, Rain, the Great Witch, personally took action, ceremoniously extracting two salt fruits. She peeled off the skins, ground the stone-like pulp into fine granules, and used them sparingly, adding just a little salt to the at, allowing everyone to enjoy a al of salted roasted at.

Because the matter of the salt fruit was indeed a major event for the Power Tribe, requiring a day of thorough celebration, Rain and Ben decided that today, everyone could eat as much at as they wanted and fill themselves up.

As a result, the people of the Power Tribe let loose and ate their fill of at roasted with salt, tasting such a rare delicacy for the first ti.

After eating unsalted, flavorless roasted at for so long, the taste of salted roasted at was simply unimaginable!

After a al of roasted at, everyone in the Power Tribe overate, their stomachs bulging round like balls, and many were moved to tears, never having tasted such delicious roasted at.

Not only were the people of the Power Tribe moved to tears, but even Yan Shuangshuang, who had never lacked salt in her diet, was touched to tears! Salt, indeed deserving of being called the king of all flavors, made food unbelievably delicious!

After a al with salt, everyone in the Power Tribe was energized and calculated how to bring back all the salt fruits. The next day, the Hunting Team mbers left early with baskets on their backs, excited beyond asure, heading out to pick salt fruits.

This ti, Yan Shuangshuang didn’t go out with the Hunting Team, but stayed behind to sort the salt fruits with the people in the cave. They prioritized selecting salt fruits with intact skins, wrapping them in dry grass for careful preservation.

Fruits with less damaged skins were put together, those with heavily damaged skins were grouped as well, consuming those with more damaged skins first, followed by those with less damage, while the ones with intact skins were left untouched, as the skins were imperable even to water, ensuring long-term preservation.

mbers of the Hunting Team carried baskets as they picked salt fruits back and forth. After collecting all the nearby salt fruits, they ventured further afield and luckily found a large patch.

The vines of salt fruits are like banyan trees on Earth; a single one can beco a forest of vines. The salt fruits near the cave entrance were regularly cleared by the Hunting Team to prevent the long-thorny plants from overgrowing and injuring those coming out from the cave to pick fruits, otherwise, the quantity wouldn’t be so limited.

Over ten consecutive days, the Hunting Team was busy searching for salt fruits, even hunting prey only incidentally. The hot season, after all, was more manageable than the cold season where water turns to ice. Additionally, salt in this area was as precious as gold.

This made the Hunting Team reluctant to leave any salt fruit behind. Even though Yan Shuangshuang repeatedly advised that it was enough and that they should go hunting, they persisted in picking all the salt fruits they could find.

As basket after basket of salt fruits was brought back, filling multiple caves inside, the people finally felt contented.

Once all the nearby salt fruits were exhausted, the now-sober mbers of the Hunting Team realized with dismay: Oh no, the water sources were starting to dry up, and prey was becoming scarce. Yet, the ga for the hot season hadn’t been stored! What to do?

In previous years, they would frantically hunt at the beginning of the hot season, slicing the at into thin strips and drying them in the sun until devoid of moisture. Although this thod didn’t preserve the at as long as salting, as recorded in the Tribe’s book, it was enough to sustain the people through the unbearable hot season.

But this ti, the hunters were overly jubilant, all bedazzled by the salt fruits, neglecting other tasks, focusing solely on storing the precious salt and entirely forgetting about hunting. Now, the pri hunting period had passed, and although the prey had not entirely gone into hiding, they were more challenging to find.

Yan Shuangshuang looked at the Hunting Team mbers, heads drooped like large dogs, and could only sigh helplessly. She had warned them: the salt fruits weren’t going anywhere, and the small animals couldn’t eat many during the hot season. Why the rush to gather them all at once? They could gather them gradually while hunting ga.

Unfortunately, in the face of precious salt, even the words of Yan Shuangshuang, the Divine Favored, were ineffective. The people still gathered all the salt fruits they could find, and it was only when their fevered minds regained sanity that they began to worry about food shortages.

Finally, they understood that no matter how good salt fruits were, they couldn’t replace a al. If they starved due to insufficient food reserves during this hot season, who knew which small animals would benefit from these salt fruits.

Fortunately, Yan Shuangshuang hadn’t been idle during this ti. She had been diligently rummaging through her data package in her mind, seeking new uses for it.

Lo and behold, Yan Shuangshuang discovered two new functionalities of the package. The first was that her package could detect water sources since water was consumable; anything consumable fell under food in the package, and thus could be detected.

Consequently, Yan Shuangshuang detected an underground water vein not far from the Power Tribe’s cave entrance. Although she didn’t know the water yield, digging a small well above the vein ensured the Power Tribe could survive the hot season without issue.

The other ability was that the package could, within a certain distance, detect in which direction edible plants were. Although it couldn’t give exact locations, the directional guidance was enough for Yan Shuangshuang.

As long as there were edible resources around, there was no fear of starvation. The lack of accuracy in location ant Yan Shuangshuang could lead everyone to find them while searching. With the package, there was no worry about locating edible plants.

Indeed, the package identified edible plants in the east, which was why Yan Shuangshuang hadn’t stopped everyone from picking the salt fruits, confident in preventing actual starvation.

Seeing the Hunting Team mbers looking dejected, Yan Shuangshuang simply declared that she had received divine guidance, claiming there was food to the east. She invoked divine intervention because she couldn’t explain how she knew there was food in that direction, so she attributed it all to the gods.
