Otherworldly Pastry Chef

This time, Bai Guo's proposal was not directly rejected by the black howler.After Bai Guo talked and talked and fell asleep, Hei Xiao almost kept his eyes open and thought about it all night.

He felt that he was very strange, in only two days, he was so unwilling to let Bai Guo leave from the heart.Compared with immortality, he knew that he cared more about holding this person.It may be because he has been excluded and discriminated against for too long, being liked by another person, being accompanied and having a good time talking, these are too precious to him.

Hei Xiao's emotions were well relieved in the next few days, because when he took the ginkgo fruit to pick in the woods, the ginkgo fruit could always tell him the new uses of things that they hadn't noticed before.He can also tell Bai Guo some monsters and plants that do not exist in their world.The distance between the two is getting closer and closer because of this.

They seem to have gotten used to sleeping in the same room, and the Westinghouse that they had agreed upon didn't tidy up until half a month later when Mr. Hu's partner went to Hei Xiao's house in person. There is a large wooden basin made of iron wood, which is specially used for bathing ginkgo.

In the past half a month, the Sophora japonica has withered long ago, but Hei Xiao's house can still smell the faint fragrance of Sophora japonica.Sitting on the chair, Mr. Hu's partner Shi Huan looked at the obviously neater room and yard, and said with emotion: "It's different after having a female at home. Hei Xiao, they said that you haven't been hunting recently, but brought Take Bai Guo to play in the woods. This is not acceptable. Since Bai Guo lives with you, you have to take care of him. He is used to living in the woods, but after all, you are alone, and Bai Guo will be very dangerous."

Hei Xiao didn't make any excuses, anyway, he had already learned that as long as he didn't push himself into a hurry, he wouldn't take it seriously.What's more, he knew that Mr. Hu's family treated him very well. Many times, when someone bullied him, it was the husband and wife who rescued him.

"I won't be like this anymore."

Bai Guo quickly explained: "No. You misunderstood. It was I who wanted Hei Xiao to take me to find the things that my parents and I used before. He will accompany me there."

Shi Huan looked at Bai Guo, and sighed: "You are also pitiful. My good boy, the forest is too dangerous, and you two really cannot guarantee safety. Even if you are used to living in the jungle, since you are already from Yancheng Now, we will be responsible for your safety. In this way, we can send a few people to follow you to find your parents' relics."

Bai Guo immediately shook her head: "No need. It's nothing. I've already decided not to look for things from the past. Life will be better in the future!"

Shi Huan nodded: "It's fine if you think so. By the way, I came this time to tell you that you have been in our Rock City for more than half a month. You always want to get acquainted with the people in the city. In addition, as an adult All females must participate in collective collection at least once a month. If you are in good health, you must also be included in the collection team. This is the contribution that every orc must make to the beast city. Just ask Heixiao and their males to make sure every month It is the same as a fixed amount of Warcraft meat that must be handed over to the Beast City. These foods are reserved for winter storage and used to support the orphans and widows.”

Bai Guo heard Hei Xiao introduce this matter.He was already ready.It's just that when he was in Lieshen Mountain, he didn't really like to deal with too many monsters. It's better to get closer to some birds and beasts that haven't been able to transform into human form. After coming here, people in the city are very fond of Hei Xiao. In that way, he was still very tangled and nervous.But Bai Guo is a little demon who doesn't reject people very much, not to mention that he always wants to do as the Romans do when he comes to this place.

"Okay. You can arrange it however you want. It's just that I don't understand anything, in case I do something wrong..."

Shi Huan smiled and comforted: "I know you are not familiar with so many people in the city and communicate with so many people. So I will let my grandson take you. He will come to you tomorrow and take you to the first collective Collect, just follow him when the time comes. If you don’t understand anything, you can ask him.”

Before Shi Huan left, he took a look at the piled-up appearance of the west room, and it didn't look like it was inhabited.Guessing that Bai Guo and Hei Xiao lived in the same room and slept together, he was somewhat comforted.

At the beginning, his elder brother and brother-in-law brought the 17-year-old Hei Xiao back to Yancheng and entrusted him to himself and his partner Wu Zhong. Although many people, including the city owner, felt that Hei Xiao was indeed very ominous, Hei Xiao still settled here a little grown up.Originally, he and his partner had been very worried about Hei Xiao's future marriage.It is indeed pitiful for Hei Xiao to be so obviously capable, but unable to find someone he loves to accompany him for the rest of his life.But everyone in the city knew the details of Hei Xiao, and there was really no way for any female to walk with him.

In fact, the day Hei Xiao brought Bai Guo back, all the reminders he and his partner gave were just to test whether Bai Guo would live with such an embarrassing identity as Hei Xiao.Hearing Bai Guo's promise, they already hoped that the two of them would be successful.Seeing Bai Guo and Hei Xiao living together now, Shi Huan is naturally very happy.In this way, when the elder brother and husband come back from traveling in the future, he and his partner can also have an explanation.

After Shi Huan left, Bai Guo struggled for a while, turned around and saw Hei Xiao looking at him with something to say, he leaned over and waved his hand in front of Hei Xiao: "What do you think I am doing? "

Hei Xiao said: "Tomorrow someone will definitely ask you why you choose to live with me, maybe they will exclude you."

Bai Guo smiled: "Compared to what you said, I am not used to contacting many people. Where I used to live, although there were many demons, I basically practiced on my own, and occasionally had some exchanges, or why did I go to the demon market?" They won’t be in groups. You said that there are more than a dozen or 20 people in the collection team every time, and there are also male orcs to follow, so it always feels weird to have a large group of people together.”

"In the forest, more people will improve safety. Although females are collected within a safe range, beasts will occasionally cross the border. Originally, all males, especially unmarried males, would arrange a monthly protection collection team, but I did not , so I can’t protect you personally.” Having said this, Hei Xiao’s eyes dimmed.

Bai Guo could clearly feel Hei Xiao's loss and sadness.He immediately stepped forward and grabbed Hei Xiao's wrist.

"Although I don't understand the rules here, I can guarantee that you will be above them in the future. Your spiritual power is different from theirs. You will be stronger than them. Didn't you say that this world is absolutely strong Will the winner be recognized and respected by everyone? You can definitely do it!"

It was the first time that someone comforted himself and even gave him firm encouragement. Hei Xiao was even more moved than excited by these words.He held the little hand on his wrist with his other hand, and thanked him solemnly.

"Thank you. Bai Guo, you are the first to say that I will be better than others."

Bai Guo smiled and narrowed her eyes: "Then you are better than them. I'm not lying. Now, let's not talk about this, you said in the morning to take me to catch fish, now go! You make fish wontons and eat them!"

Fifty miles away from Yancheng, there is a large lake formed by several rivers.This lake is not only rich in water animals, but also abounds in an aquatic plant called radish.The radish grows in shallow water, the stems and leaves protrude out of the water, but the roots of the radish are deeply embedded in the mud.The oily radish dug out is very similar to ordinary white radish, but it tastes like shrimp.The strangest thing about this thing is that it will melt when heated, and it is usually used by orcs as a condiment.And you radish is one of Yancheng's special products, so the oil radish in this lake is also a good thing that Yancheng people often dig and take to the market to sell.

After more than half a month in the Beast World, Ginkgo often uses this thing to season food.So when he got to the lake, the first thing he did was not to watch Hei Xiao fishing, but to rush to the lake and start digging the radishes closest to the shore.

Most of the fish in the lake are very fat, but there are also large carnivorous water beasts deep in the water, so few people go diving to catch fish in deep water.There are not many orcs like Hei Xiao who can fish with a piece of wood and a line. Most people use a harpoon to spear fish in shallow water.Therefore, fish, shrimp and crab in the lake, including snails and mussels, are very popular.Hei Xiao's fishing skills were learned from a lame old orc in Heiyun City when he was a child.Those years of living alone in the woods also taught him skills that many other orcs didn't really care about.It's like catching some small but difficult prey.

Seeing Bai Guo having fun by the water, with a faint halo in the sun on his smiling face, Hei Xiao also smiled.At this moment, he had thrown the fishhook into the water, thinking that he would have such a cute and smiling little rabbit with him every day in the future, so he couldn't hold back his smile no matter what.

"You don't need to dig too much, and you need to keep it in water at home so that you won't get dehydrated. Anyway, it's close, so dig it when it's gone."

Bai Guo turned her head to see that she had already dug five of them, and this child's arm-sized radishes were enough for them to eat for a month.There is really no need to do more.However, Hei Xiao's words made him suddenly have a new idea: "Isn't dehydration the same as drying? Wouldn't it melt after drying? Or would it be tasteless?"

Hei Xiao replied: "It can also be melted, and the taste doesn't change much. It's just that people like to eat fresh things. In the market, the fresher the radishes, the higher the price."

Ginkgo narrowed her eyes and thought for a while, then bent down again and continued digging: "Then I'll dig a few more and take them back and try to dry them in the sun and grind them into powder. I used to make mushrooms, shrimps and even meat into powder. When eating, just sprinkle a little powder in the dish to enhance the freshness and seasoning. If the taste will not change after drying, isn’t dry powder easier to store and carry? I want to try it. If possible, maybe The next time we go to the market, we can sell these for money. I can’t just rely on you without making money.”

Although Hei Xiao was not good at what Bai Guo said and didn't understand it at all, but seeing Bai Guo's serious face, he immediately said that he could try whatever he wanted.

"As long as you like it, your bag is amazing. It can hold a lot of things without adding weight. But it's only May, and the water is not that warm yet, so don't stay in the water for too long."

Bai Guo nodded: "Understood. I won't make a lot of them. Wow, I seem to have touched a clam! I want to dig it out!"

A large black clam the size of a washbasin was dug out of the mud with Hei Xiao's assistance.The two washed the shells by the lake, and Bai Guo happily patted the shells.

"It's amazing! This guy is really big. The place I lived before was not so big. The small clams are very small. But they are delicious when boiled in soup and dumplings. I heard the old monkey say that if you are lucky in the clam, you can still eat it." If you find pearls, some immortals and demons can use them for alchemy or magic tools, and humans will love them as treasures. Do you think there will be big and big pearls in such a big clam?"

Bai Guo's innocent appearance really makes Hei Xiao like him from the bottom of his heart.

"Pearls are hard to find, otherwise why would they be so expensive? Don't think about good things, just eat them."

Bai Guo touched the clam with her small hands: "But how do you know if you don't open it? I've always had good luck. Before I could become a human, I was caught and eaten by eagles. The master found out that I was rescued, and I was really lucky. I don’t think I can solve Hei Xiao, can you help me?”

Hei Xiao looked at Bai Guo's shining big eyes and looked at himself, as if his heart was lightly pressed by something soft.This feels very strange, but it is very useful.

"Now?"

Bai Guo nodded: "That's right. Mussels can be eaten anywhere, and they are very fishy. I can handle them by the lake. There must be a lot of things to throw away for such a big mussel. The fish in the lake with their internal organs can be It’s not a waste to eat.”

Hei Xiao stretched out his hand, and the beast developed sharp claws, then pried open the clam shell with his hands, and then directly broke it open with his hands.

"I heard you say that all the immortal cultivators over there have to accumulate virtue and do good deeds, and there are also those who don't kill. You are really different."

Bai Guo blinked her eyes: "It seems that I am really cruel when you say that. But all things have spirits and are alive. Not to mention animals become spirits, flowers, plants and trees can also be cultivated, and even some stones can be cultivated. Yes. Then what to eat is not killing.”

Hei Xiao smiled: "You really know how to speak. Well, let's see if there are any pearls in it."

Bai Guo didn't start until Hei Xiao broke open the clam shells and flattened them out for him.The oyster was too big, but after pulling it aside, no pearls were found.Ginkgo pursed her mouth and continued to turn the other side.Hei Xiao just wanted to tease him, but Bai Guo took out an oval bead the size of a thumbnail from the clam meat.Although it is still wrapped in mucus, it can still be seen under the sun that it is a golden pearl.Now Hei Xiao didn't know what to say.Isn't this kind of luck too outrageous?

Bai Guo jumped up happily.

"It's great! Let me just say I'm lucky! Hei Xiao, look, it's a pearl, a real pearl, a big one! It's golden!"

The little rabbit was happy, and of course Hei Xiao was also happy.

"This one can be punched by a craftsman to make a necklace for you."

Ginkgo's eyes never left Pearl.

"I don't want to punch holes, it's so beautiful, it's a pity to destroy it. I just put it in my small box for collection. This is my first baby here! I like it very much!"

Before Hei Xiao could speak, a third person's voice suddenly sounded beside the two of them.

"Hey, that new female, I like the pearl in your hand very much, I will give you fifty catties of meat in exchange for it!"

Hei Xiao frowned when he turned his head to see the three brothers of the Hu family.

"Bing Guo, let's go."
