The sun sets, and the suffocating heat finally eases somewhat.

Tian Manqi and his group, who were nestled in the farmyard, no longer lay motionless on the ground and began to take action.

Tian Manqi slowly raised her upper body. She had a headache due to the heat. She knocked her dizzy head and said:

"Starting today, everyone takes turns cooking, in pairs, one group for one day."

Everyone also knew that if no one moved, no one would be able to eat, so they could only acquiesce in Tian Manqi's decision.

However, several of today's corpses already had a faint smell of decay.

"Drag the body to the river, clean it and smoke it before bringing it back."

Tian Manqi frowned, this was the only way at the moment.

If it is not processed in time, the meat will be completely inedible tomorrow.

I don’t know yet whether my intestines and stomach can handle this meat after eating it today.

In the afterglow of the setting sun, people dragged the corpse by its ankles step by step to the back mountain, and then around from the back mountain to the river.

The back mountain is not within the sight of the cave, and you will not be discovered by the residents of the cave if you walk from here.

When we arrived at the river, everyone was very thirsty.

People lay down by the river and drank heavily again.

But the amount of water today is even less than yesterday, and I drank a mouthful of sediment.

Tian Manqi took the lead in digging a hole in the middle of the river to get some clear water.

She also ordered everyone to find firewood, pile it into a pile, and light it.

The flesh from the corpse was cut into pieces and roasted on the fire.

The fat on the meat gives off a rich aroma when roasted by the fire.

Tian Manqi swallowed and took a few steps back.

The incense was fragrant, but the fire was too hot. If it continued to bake, she would suffocate immediately.

More than 40 people all stood not far from the fire to supervise, for fear that someone would accidentally hide the meat.

Some people cut up the corpse with knives, while others kept roasting the pieces of meat on the fire.

They have to process all the meat today to ensure that the food can be preserved longer.

The collision of oil and flame always inspires an alluring aroma.

Dozens of pieces of meat are roasted together, and the aroma is overbearing and strong. Even by the river, the aroma still spreads into Xiawa Village.

The residents of Xiawa Village woke up in the afternoon, but the weather was too hot, so they only stayed in the cave.

The sun is setting now and people are going out to work.

As soon as they came out of the cave, everyone could smell the vague aroma of barbecue in the air.

People haven't eaten meat for a long time, and when they smell this smell, their saliva starts to secrete like crazy.
