CHAPTER 510: CHAPTER 501: THE BIG BOSS 19

Upon hearing the news, Yu rushed to the well in front of her, excitedly knelt on the ground, trembling hands raised high, and shouted towards the sky, "Thank God!" Then she prostrated fully, the highest reverence for the divine.

Reminded by Yu’s attitude, everyone surrounded the well water, knelt on the ground, raised their hands high, shouted thanks to God, and then prostrated themselves fully.

Shuangshuang also prostrated herself, only in her heart, she was grateful for the Goddess who gave her the chance of rebirth, a healthy body, and a golden finger gift package.

To ensure safety, after thanking the God, Shuangshuang led everyone to build a well edge with stones and mud to prevent anyone from accidentally falling into the well.

After a night of settling, the well water became clear the next day. Everyone used a diamond to drill two holes on the hard shell of the White Stone Fruit and threaded it with vines to draw water from the well.

With well water available, the next step was to make the Immortal Tofu that Shuangshuang had been longing for. Originally, she planned to use the Immortal Leaves she collected earlier, but they had all been consumed by everyone as wrapping for roasted meat.

Shuangshuang and the hunting team had to go out again to collect them. This time, Shuangshuang was in a hurry and did not venture into the areas where the Earth King Beast frequently appeared, so they didn’t encounter the beast.

They headed straight to the Immortal Tree, picked enough Immortal Leaves, and hurried back, encountering a sweet fruit tree with half of its fruit ripe, which they naturally picked unceremoniously.

On the way back, they casually looked for wild vegetables and Flaming Grass. The one most interested in the Flaming Grass was, of course, Shuangshuang, who came from the Big Glutton Empire—when conditions allowed, she was eager to satisfy her culinary desires.

The process of making Immortal Tofu was not complicated. First, wash and dry the Immortal Leaves, soak them in spring water of proportionate ratio, crumble them, and then squeeze out the juice, discarding the residue.

On Earth, this step required cloth for filtering, but there was no cloth here. Fortunately, the men of the Power Tribe were strong, and gripping a large handful of the crumbled Immortal Leaves, with forceful squeezing, almost all the juice was extracted.

Set aside the Immortal Leaf juice, then burn a handful of plant ash, soak it in water, and mix it into the Immortal Leaf juice to utilize the alkali in the plant ash.

For the original Immortal Tofu, this step was the final one; it just needed to settle for a while to solidify. However, this wasn’t enough here, as the impurities in the liquid hadn’t been thoroughly filtered.

Shuangshuang boiled the huge leaves, which had been previously picked back to use as a blanket, then scrubbed all the leaf flesh off, leaving behind the robust, transparent mesh-like leaf veins.

Shuangshuang chose this type of leaf because of its strong leaf veins. While it couldn’t be used as cloth, laying a few together as a mesh was sufficient to filter the impurities in the not-yet-solidified Immortal Tofu liquid.

After filtering, the Immortal Tofu liquid appeared a vibrant light green. Letting this liquid settle for two to three hours allowed it to solidify, and the Immortal Tofu was made. Soak it in water for a few hours to remove the slight bitterness from the leaves for consumption.

Shuangshuang ground the sweet fruit into juice, poured it over the cut Immortal Tofu, and the sweetness of the fruit, coupled with the chilled Immortal Tofu from the well water, provided an amazingly refreshing taste in the hot season, quickly winning over everyone in the Power Tribe!

Afterward, Shuangshuang didn’t need to make it herself anymore, as everyone in the Power Tribe had learned how to make Immortal Tofu and would make it almost daily.

Shuangshuang also made a savory version of Immortal Tofu using Flaming Grass, salt, and the oil dripping from roasted wild boar meat. The savory flavor was equally refreshing and delicious, and having a bite of the savory Immortal Tofu when tired of meat was a great enjoyment!

From then on, the people of the Power Tribe fell in love with Immortal Tofu, pairing it with savory tofu while eating roasted meat, and having sweet tofu as a snack at other times.

Since this dish was made from leaves, with inexhaustible raw materials, everyone could eat to their heart’s content, staying full at all times—a state of fullness was the greatest happiness for the Power Tribe people.

Now that food and water, and even salt and some semblance of culinary desire, were resolved, the matter of Shuangshuang’s training was finally on the agenda.

Shuangshuang naturally aspired to become a warrior, but not everyone could achieve this, and the specific methods of becoming a warrior were unknown to others, even to the Wise Man and the only two warriors in the Yuhe Tribe, Ben and Tie.

Ben and Tie gave vague explanations to Shuangshuang about how they became warriors. Ben became one because he strongly desired to be a warrior and trained diligently every day, until one day, he suddenly possessed the power unique to warriors.

Tie’s method was even stranger. He said he became one while out with everyone hunting; as their prey was about to escape, in a moment of urgency, he suddenly transformed into a warrior.

Nevertheless, one sure thing about becoming a warrior is to hone the body’s abilities to their peak, such as the powerful strength displayed by the hunting team when attacking a giant ape, and the extraordinary jumping capability beyond Shuangshuang’s scientific understanding!

Combining their training concepts, Ben and Tie devised a rigorous training routine for Shuangshuang, starting with running alongside all hunting team members.

After running, it was frog jumping, push-ups, quick tree climbing, and various jumping and climbing exercises. After completing these, Shuangshuang received individual combat guidance from Ben and Tie, along with various experiences fighting top predators in the jungle.

At the end of such a day of training, Shuangshuang felt sore and achy all over. But wanting to increase her strength—to protect her father and mother, and this tribe—she needed to become stronger.

Hence, Shuangshuang gritted her teeth and persevered through the pain and exhaustion, continuing even when collapsing to the ground, unwilling to relax in the slightest.

This high-intensity training proved effective. After a month of continuous exercise, Shuangshuang made significant progress in endurance, speed, and jumping ability. Although she couldn’t leap as high as the hunting team members who could reach nearly twenty meters, jumping three to four meters was no problem for her.
