sleepwalking

Chapter 246 You can have both fish and bear's paw
Zhang Xu's heart was also slightly moved.

He did have a good impression of Sobud, but he felt that staying in the holy land of the prairie people was really meaningless.

Time passed quickly, and in two months, it will be the Chinese New Year.

He wanted to try to step into the foundation building period within these two months, not to mention, after two months, he would definitely return to Dong'an to celebrate the new year with his grandfather Zhang Yuanli.

Therefore, Zhang Xu didn't want to waste time here.

Looking at Zhang Xu's apologetic expression, Sobud knew that Zhang Xu was not prepared to change his decision.

Big, crystal clear tears fell from Sobud's eyes.

Zhang Xu panicked, took out a tissue and stuffed it into Sobud's hand, "Don't cry, why are you crying..."

Sobud just didn't speak, kept crying, and wiped his tears with a tissue from time to time.

Zhang Xu thought for a while, and a round fruit appeared in his hand, "This fruit is delicious, you can eat it."

Sobud looked at the fruit in Zhang Xu's hand.

The fruit is pink and looks very delicate and lovely.

It makes people want to eat it just by looking at it.

Sobud took it over and put it near his mouth, "Kacha" took a bite, "Well, well, it's a good time (to eat)..."

Sobud stopped crying and ate the fruit one bite at a time.

"Is there any more? I want to eat again." Sobud stretched out his hand.

Zhang Xu smiled, "Just eat one piece of this fruit. Go and look in the mirror."

After hearing Zhang Xu's words, Sobud took out a round mirror from his Qiankun bag.

Looking in the mirror, Sobud screamed "ah", "I fainted, this is me, but why doesn't it look like me?"

Zhang Xu smiled.

Sobud was originally a beauty who was one in a million.

Now eating Huayuanguo, it is even more beautiful.

Not to mention the impeccable appearance, the whole person has a sense of agility.

Looking at the pleasing face in front of him, Zhang Xu also felt a bit of reluctance in his heart.

But he still said cruelly, "I really want to leave. You don't have to see me off, I'll go straight into the mountain."

Sobud's eyes were filled with tears again.

Zhang Xu sighed, rubbed Sobud's head, and got up.

Back in the room, packed up his things, put Xianxian into his arms, and Zhang Xu was ready to go.

Walking out of the room, I saw Sobud in the yard, looking at him with sad eyes.

Zhang Xu stepped forward, "I'm leaving, take care."

"Yes. I'll take you out." Sobud took Zhang Xu's arm.

After leaving the holy land, Zhang Xu asked Sobud to go back.

Sobud felt extremely uncomfortable, so he nodded in agreement.

Zhang Xu left the valley and walked towards the deep mountains.

The terrain of the Tianshan Mountains is complex.

There are forests, grasslands, and deserts, and there are many places where there is nothing but bare rocks.

Zhang Xu found that the spiritual energy on Tianshan Mountain was much more abundant than in ordinary places.

Zhang Xu was not aimless, he walked west along the mountain peak.

After walking for a while, suddenly a mountain lake appeared in front of me.

The water of the lake is light blue and looks particularly pure.

Zhang Xu took a closer look and found that there were still some small fish living in it.

Zhang Xu stopped, pitched the tent, and took out Suan Ni and Black Bear from the storage space, ready to deal with them.

The skin was peeled off, the bones were removed, and the edible meat and internal organs were left, which weighed more than 2000 catties.

It was time to find a place to tan these two furs. Zhang Xu secretly thought: They are all good things, maybe they can be made into armor.

Then, Zhang Xu took out two bear paws and prepared to make a stewed bear paw.

Although Zhang Xu hadn't handled bear's paws before, after all, he had acquired the inheritance of culinary skills, so he was very clear about how to do it.

Boil the bear's paw in boiling water for about 10 minutes and remove it.

Boil water in the pot again, add green onion, ginger, cooking wine, put in the bear's paw and cook for 10 minutes, remove the fishy smell of the bear's paw.

In the pot, put bear's paws, sea rice, winter bamboo shoots, green onions, ginger, infuse spiritual spring water, bring to a boil over high heat, and then simmer over low heat.

When the bear's paws are stewed six to seventy percent rotten, remove the pot from the heat, remove the dried shrimps, winter bamboo shoots, green onions, and ginger, take out the bear's paws, remove the bones and cut them into cubes so that the skin underneath is connected.

Filter the soup in the pot into another pot, put in the bear's paw, put in the pickled dried shrimps, winter bamboo shoots, cooking wine, salt, and sugar, and bring to a boil.

Bring to a simmer.Put the ham slices, chicken and duck together into the casserole and continue to stew until the bear paws are completely stewed and tasty, then adjust the seasoning and serve.

Originally, chicken and duck meat were used, but Zhang Xu didn't have any, so he had to use ham, dried shrimps, and winter bamboo shoots.

These are Zhang Xu's own reserves in the storage space.

Also added a little bit of diced shrimp.

While stewing, the bear paws give off an alluring aroma.

It takes several hours to fully stew the bear's paw.So, Zhang Xu sniffed the aroma and continued to stew.

Sitting on the moisture-proof mat, he took out a novel and read it.

The novel is "The Idiot" by Dostoyevsky. Zhang Xu likes this book very much. He has read it two or three times, and when he reads it now, he still finds it very attractive.

At this moment, Zhang Xu saw a person coming from afar, very fast.

There was a smile on Zhang Xu's face: he turned out to be a master in the innate realm.

It seems that it should be in the realm of the sky.

When the visitors arrived by the lake, they were also very surprised to see Zhang Xu.

Immediately, she twitched her nose, "It smells so good, are you stewing bear's paws?"

Zhang Xu nodded, "Yes."

The person who came showed a smile, "I haven't eaten a bear's paw for a long time, can you give me some?"

Zhang Xu was a little surprised. He had never seen such a person before. When they met for the first time, he asked people what they wanted to eat.

At the same time, Zhang Xu was also moved by the visitor's frankness, and nodded, "I stewed two, and I will share one with you later."

The visitor was delighted, "My name is Lian Bian, what's your name?"

"Zhang Xu."

Lian Bian nodded, "There is a small fish in this lake, which is very delicious. I will catch some, prepare it, and stew it with bear paws. It will be absolutely delicious."

"Okay." Zhang Xu nodded.

I saw the man walk to the lake, and then took out a very finely woven fishing net, and cast the net.

After a while, I pulled it up, and there were indeed many small fish that were as thick as two fingers.

This man is also agile.He picked up ten fish directly, took out a sharp knife, and dealt with the fish in two or three strokes.

Someone came to Zhang Xu with the processed fish, "Fish, I processed it, put it in and stew with the bear's paw, it will make the bear's paw more delicious."

Zhang Xu nodded, took the fish, put it into the pot, and stewed it with the bear's paw.

Even laughing "haha", "Fish, what I want, bear's paw, also what I want, you can't have both, and those who give up the fish and take the bear's paw... Now, we are both fish and bear's paws." You can have both."

Not long after, perhaps because of the addition of small fish, the fragrance from the pot became more intense.

Even the side didn't do anything, just stared at the pot.
