Chapter 158: Brewing An 7
"Hey, An Qi, why are you sleeping like this?" No one could tell what happened last night. The next day, only passers-by accidentally discovered An Qi sleeping upside down on a tree branch.
She has been so unlucky lately!
An Qi was too tired to explain. No matter who was hung upside down for a whole night and couldn't call anyone, he might not want to speak today.
Orcs are generally in good health, and hanging upside down for a night will not affect their health.
When the male saw this, he went up and put her down. Those who lived nearby heard her cries last night, but... someone didn't let them get close.
Thinking of those two guys with hard fists, the males resolutely hid the embarrassment, pity and guilt that emerged in their hearts and pretended that nothing had happened.
No matter how stupid An Qi was, she knew that she must have been targeted last night, otherwise she would have shouted loudly as soon as she had the strength. The males in the tribe were asleep, not dead, so how could no one hear her!
"An Qi, don't do such dangerous things in the future. If we hadn't seen it today, you would be in danger." The female said to her seriously, "Also, don't always target Lu Xiaoxiao. She is a good female."
Lu Xiaoxiao, Lu Xiaoxiao, and the most heroic one is Lu Xiaoxiao, will it ever end? !
It seemed like every time she attacked her, she would get into trouble. Was it because she was not capable enough or because she underestimated her enemy?
An Qi pondered in her mind and remembered what she had observed. She pursed her lips. It was not uncommon for good brothers to like the same partner in the tribe's pairing activities, but it was also common for brothers to turn against each other for the attention of females. What should she do to make Nanshan and Yuchuan turn against each other?
Lu Xiaoxiao seems to be very good at making people favor her. If she used ordinary means, Nanshan and Yuchuan should be tricked by her into getting along with each other in a friendly manner.
This is not what An Qi wants.

"An Qi likes to sleep upside down'?" Lu Xiaoxiao was about to die of laughter. No wonder Yuchuan went out last night. So this is the case.
Hei Xi nodded and said doubtfully: "Wouldn't it be dizzy to sleep upside down? I feel so tired."
Lu Xiaoxiao held back her laughter, not wanting to show it too obviously: "Well...her interests are really special."
"By the way, Xiaoxiao, I recently asked my father to get me some silk threads from the Flower Spider Clan. Can you help me get some black cloth when the time comes?" Heixi had always coveted Heiyu's long skirt, but she pestered Heiyu for several days, but Heiyu refused to lend it to her. She could only ask Lu Xiaoxiao, "I'll trade you my favorite fruit~ Okay?"
After saying that, she took out a bunch of light green objects that looked like meat from behind her.
Grapes? Raisins?
Hei Xi’s favorite fruit is grapes. In fact, this girl has many “favorite” fruits, but Lu Xiaoxiao did not expect this fruit to appear suddenly.
Looking closer, the fruit bunch is rose purple in color with a layer of frost on it, which makes it look more like grapes, so let's call it grapes.
"This fruit bunch is delicious, you should try it." Hei Xi said enthusiastically while holding the grapes.
Lu Xiaoxiao pinched it and found the flesh was firm, indicating that the grapes were still very fresh.
I squeezed one and it burst with juice, sour and sweet, but there were too many grape seeds.
Accustomed to eating improved versions of green grapes and seedless grapes, she suddenly bit off a few grape seeds, which tasted astringent.
"Is it delicious?" Hei Xi asked expectantly.
"Very good." She asked, "Are you from this mountain? Are there many?"
"A lot, but not many are sweet, most are sour." Hei Xi raised his head proudly, showing off that he has a brother, "Only the firm fruit bunches are sweet. Hei Feng will bring them back for me if he sees them."
Lu Xiaoxiao looked at her lovely face and smiled slightly: "Very good."
It is not realistic to make wine with clay jars as there are many holes in them. Her technique is not up to par and she might end up lying on the board with everyone else after drinking the wine. In order not to be blamed, Lu Xiaoxiao only considered making raisins or dried fruits.
They're all sour anyway.
Lu Xiaoxiao agreed to Heixi's request and got a bunch of grapes, but she told Heifeng about the work she was doing. His sister wanted new clothes, so of course he had to do the work ~ Lu Xiaoxiao provided the technology.
Heifeng is smart and reliable. He has to do Heixi's work even if he doesn't want to. That's why many people see him washing and scrubbing by the river every day.
After Heiyu found out, she quietly used her own pocket money to purchase a batch of goods, forcing Heifeng to work overtime every day when he was on vacation. After making the clothes, she exchanged them and made a lot of money.
However, Lu Xiaoxiao only discovered this a long time later.
Because she recently discovered another strange thing.
That is, An Qi asked the males to find grapes, saying that he wanted to make fruit wine, which is wine.
The corner of Lu Xiaoxiao's mouth twitched slightly. She even tried to test whether this guy was a time traveler. The result she got repeatedly was that this guy insisted that his tribe had done it. So she didn't say anything and let this guy lead everyone to do it.
She is very happy.
When they heard that An Qi was going to make some water for the tribe to offer to the beast god, everyone became more friendly towards her. The females just looked at her coldly and did not come over to ask any questions. They remained skeptical about what An Qi said.
Those single males had no choice but to try their best to do as An Qi asked.
An Qi knew that everyone was suspicious of her, so she snorted and said, "The Beast God loves to drink this water the most. We call it wine. At the ceremony, we all offered it to the Beast God. He told me in his dream that he liked it!"
Anyway, when offering sacrifices, it is always linked to mysterious things, and people don’t know whether they believe it or not.
It feels like after this female came, the Beast God appears more often.
In an era of food scarcity, alcohol was too far away from them and no one knew what alcohol tasted like.
It wasn't until the wine was brewed that this happened a month and a half later.
The warming temperature accelerated the fermentation of the ingredients in the wine, and during this time, many things in the tribe gradually got back on track. An Qi finally showed her skills and brushed a layer of "paint"-like substance on the pottery jar. She said that the wine made in this container would taste better.
During this period of time, she never met or confronted Lu Xiaoxiao again.
Lu Xiaoxiao knew that she was saving up for her ultimate move.
Come on, come on, who’s afraid of who?
The first sip of wine was poured out and she tasted it. It still tasted as fragrant as she remembered. She raised her head proudly and said, "It's done!"
The mellow wine had the smell of fermented alcohol. Some of the orcs liked it while others frowned. When Lu Xiaoxiao came over to watch the fun, An Qi caught her at first sight.
"Lu Xiaoxiao, how about it? You want to try it too?" In her tribe, some females would fall down and fall asleep after taking a sip. If Lu Xiaoxiao did the same, she would be so happy.
Lu Xiaoxiao raised her eyebrows and smiled slightly: "Okay."
In full view of everyone, she took the first sip. This was destined to be a jar of wine without any problems, and Lu Xiaoxiao would not refuse.
She has used this spoon before and she will feel disgusted with it.
The male put a second new spoon on the ground in time and asked Lu Xiaoxiao to drink from it. She took a sip and found it extremely unpalatable.
She looked at An Qi suspiciously. This wine had no aroma at all. It just had a bitter and astringent taste. It also scratched her throat and was not smooth at all.
It seems that this is still an unimproved wine.
Seeing her frown, An Qi's heart was filled with alarm. Is this guy going to do something naughty again?
"I don't think it tastes good." Lu Xiaoxiao looked at her seriously, "You should add some sugar, so it will taste better."
Although experts advocate "not drinking homemade wine easily", this kind of fermented wine is also common in the flower-growing world. Whether it is grapes, passion fruit or bayberry, they are all raw materials for the "briefcase". People who can make this kind of wine are generally experienced and can make the wine taste good without adding sugar.
An Qi is obviously not a very experienced person.
"You don't have the final say, and you can't do it, so you don't have the final say." An Qi finally regained his confidence, and his tone towards Lu Xiaoxiao could be described as disdainful.
This is a gift from God, but you don’t know how to appreciate it.
Lu Xiaoxiao was silent. She nodded and said, "This doesn't make me feel very happy after drinking it. I guess the Beast God wouldn't like this kind of water that makes him frown after drinking it."
Upon hearing this, everyone really felt that it made sense. What the Beast God wanted to eat and drink must be the best. If he frowned after eating, then it wouldn't taste good!
"You're talking nonsense!" An Qi was really speechless. Why did she always go against him?
Lu Xiaoxiao shrugged and nodded, "Okay, whatever you say is what it is."
A fist hit the cotton, and An Qi really didn't want to say anything more.
Lu Xiaoxiao stared at her and suddenly heard someone say, "The people from the mountain tribe are coming!"
Hill tribe? What kind of tribe is that?
