Chapter 2 Green Stem Grilled Fish

"Ha... ha... I really can't do it..." Cheng Xi put his knees on one hand and lowered his head, panting non-stop, while holding the shiny jade rabbit in the other hand, "Fairy, how long is it?"

Cheng Xi raised his head and looked forward. After walking for some time, there were still trees in front of him.

"Hurry up!" Yutu's voice became irritable, "Wangshanzong's people are here, they haven't found you here yet, but the formations where you walked are all broken, and you will be discovered sooner or later .”

"I can't walk anymore." Cheng Xi's legs are weak now. His physical strength is not bad after working in the kitchen for a long time, but it has been walking for too long, and there is an invisible film around him that hinders him. Moving forward, it takes more effort than usual to walk.

"If they find out, you will die." Yutu's soft voice became serious, "There are many elixir and spirit beasts in the Xiaolan Mountain Realm, you are a person who suddenly appeared in the Xiaolan Mountain Realm of the Wangshan Sect What will happen?"

"I appeared here after waking up from sleep..." Cheng Xi defended, and just after he finished speaking, he realized that if someone strayed into someone else's warehouse with them, he would have eight mouths to speak, " How can we get out then?"

"When Ying Long is rescued, I have the coordinates outside, so that Ying Long can break through the space and go out." Yutu said a lot of words, and almost used up the spiritual energy accumulated by eating the drift ice green fruit before. He didn't say anything superfluous, and let Cheng Xi make his own choice.

Cheng Xi sighed and had no choice but to move his sore legs and walk forward.

·

Cheng Xi had no idea how long he had been walking, and could only rely on instinct to walk forward step by step. The hair on his forehead was wet with sweat, and even his eyes seemed to be covered with a layer of mist. Just when he felt that he was about to faint When he fell, he saw a place surrounded by eight boulders in front of him.

Under the urging of Yutu, Cheng Xi strenuously walked towards the boulder. The moment Cheng Xi walked into it, cracks appeared on the boulder.

Cheng Xi also felt the pressure dozens of times stronger than before, unable to stand still and fell to his knees with a plop.

Yutu jumped from Cheng Xi's arms to the ground, and looked in disbelief at a small snake in the middle of the formation, "What kind of...snake is this?" Cheng Xi joked while panting, "Can it be eaten? Why? Eat? Is it delicious?"

This little winged snake raised its head to look at the people and rabbits who had intruded into its territory, flicked its slender and long tail, seemed to understand Cheng Xi's words, and let out a cry like a child with a wow "Don't, don't eat me!"

"Ying Long, after hundreds of years, you have come to such a state." Yutu's voice was very lonely, walking to Ying Long's side, rubbing his forehead against Ying Long's tail, "I am Moon Cicada, don't you remember?" ?"

Ying Long stared blankly at Yuechan for a while, and just when Yuechan thought it remembered something, it hiccupped.

"No...don't eat me." Ying Long could only say this one sentence over and over again.

"Can he take us out like this?" Cheng Xi looked at Ying Long suspiciously.

"The aura on his body has been drained by the Xiaolan Mountain Realm, and most of his spiritual consciousness is in a deep sleep state. It will recover when the aura is sufficient." Yue Chan checked Yinglong's body and found that it was only due to the lack of aura. So, she thought for a while, her three-petal mouth moved, and spit out a mouthful of moon-white spiritual energy towards Yinglong.

Ying Long was in a place where he lacked aura for a long time, when he saw the aura spit out by Moon Cicada, he swallowed it without hesitation.

After Yuechan spit out this aura, the original snow-white fur turned an abnormal gray, "Go out from... this direction..." After Yuechan pointed in one direction, she closed her eyes as if she had lost her vitality.

Cheng Xi breathed a sigh of relief after feeling the hot air on Yue Chan's body, and put Yue Chan back into his arms. He looked at the little snake.

Where the little snake was originally, a fat, white, three-year-old boy appeared.

"Hi, don't eat me." Ying Long noticed that Cheng Xi was looking at him, and looked back, biting his thumb.

Cheng Xi looked at this fat, naked boy with a complicated expression.He picked it up and walked towards the direction Yuechan pointed.

·

There was not much pressure on the way out. Cheng Xi held a fat baby in one hand, and the fat baby held a white rabbit in his hand. He walked to a pool before stopping to rest.

"I shouldn't be found here." Cheng Xi scooped up a spray of cold lake water and splashed the sweat on his face. Yue Chan woke up but squatted in the grass without saying a word and gnawed grass. An ordinary rabbit.

"Fairy?" Cheng Xi tentatively poked Yue Chan's furry back, "Jade Rabbit Fairy? Moon Chan Fairy?"

Moon Cicada was still gnawing on the grass slowly, and after being poked by Cheng Xi couldn't take it anymore, she turned her head to look at Cheng Xi, her three-petal mouth kept wriggling, and she lowered her head to eat grass again.

puff-

There was a sound of something falling into the water behind him.

Cheng Xi turned her head and saw that Ying Long, who was sitting on the bank, was gone, and only ripples could be seen on the water surface.

fell? !

Cheng Xi, who can't swim, saw that there was no sign of a drowning person struggling on the surface of the water. He gritted his teeth and was about to jump down to save someone, when Ying Long's head came out of the lake.

"Eat! Eat!" Ying Long held a golden carp half as tall as him in his lotus-root-like arms, and he gave Cheng Xi a big smile.

"Come up quickly, how dangerous it is." Cheng Xi knew that Ying Long was a dragon, but now he looked like a real toddler. Cheng Xi squatted on the bank and clapped his hands towards Ying Long to signal him to come up.

Ying Long swam to the shore with difficulty holding the golden dragon fish, and was immediately pulled up by Cheng Xi.

"Delicious, hungry, eat." Ying Long was hugged by Cheng Xi, the golden dragon fish fell on the grass and kept jumping, Ying Long picked up the golden dragon fish from the ground and was about to go to Cheng Xi's mouth stuffed.

"You can't eat it raw." Cheng Xi stopped Ying Long's movement, took the golden dragon fish from his arms, weighed it, and asked Ying Long's opinion, "Shall we make grilled fish?"

Ying Long obviously didn't know what grilled fish meant. He looked at Cheng Xi with a pair of pitch-black eyes, nodded after hiccupping, and said the words he had just learned, "Okay! Roast... grilled fish."

Cheng Xi asked Ying Long to sit obediently next to Moon Cicada with the golden dragon fish in his arms. After ordering again and again, he went to the nearby woods to find some dead branches and fallen leaves and walked back to the shore with his arms. There were a few peach blossoms in full bloom on a peach tree branch, and I also identified the weeds growing on the bank, and picked the usable green-stemmed Malan head.

"This!" Ying Long saw Cheng Xi pulling weeds, crawled over on his knees and grabbed the grass with his chubby fingers, "Here!

"Hey, just keep an eye on that fish." Cheng Xi has been completely sure that Ying Long is just a kid who doesn't understand anything. He squatted on the bank to wash and clean the green stalk Malan head he picked, and kneaded it into a ball. Put it in a prepared leaf, and asked Ying Long who was looking at him eagerly, "Where's the fish?"

Moon Cicada moved her ears, and moved her furry buttocks to reveal the gold-patterned dragon fish that was trampled underneath.

Cheng Xi felt very complicated. In his heart, Yuechan must be a fairy full of fairy spirit, to be able to do such a thing... Even if she is a rabbit now...

Cheng Xi put a wooden box on his back on the ground and opened it. With one hand, he picked up the golden arowana and fell unconscious. With the other hand, he reached for the Quelin knife, which was specially used for handling fish. , I had to take the next best thing and hold the smallest Furong knife on the side, which was used for carving, and the Furong knife was pulled out in one go.

For Cheng Xi, any knife is the same. The Furong knife turned into a silver light in his hand, flashed on the gold-patterned dragon fish, and countless golden scales fell to the ground. Turn and insert into the belly of the golden dragon fish, lightly stroke and quickly take out the viscera inside, and stuff the prepared green stem Malan head dumpling into the belly of the fish. The Furong knife is very fast, and stuff it into the abdomen behind the green stem Malan head His wound healed immediately without any trace, as if he had never been disemboweled.

"Can it breathe fire?" Cheng Xi dug a shallow pit with a wooden stick, put all the dead leaves and branches in it, and looked at Ying Long.

Ying Long looked at Cheng Xi and then at the pile of dead trees, puffed up his cheeks—hiccupped.

"No... no." Ying Long shook his head.

"What else can you do besides belching?" Cheng Xi resigned himself to drilling wood to make fire, his hands were sore to grind out a little spark, Cheng Xi carefully protected the spark and blew on the fire one by one.

"Huh—huh—" Ying Long thought that Cheng Xi was playing something funny, and puffed out his cheeks.

The fire finally burned vigorously, Cheng Xi stuffed peach branches from the fish's mouth, placed it on top of the fire and slowly roasted it.

The smell of grilled fish gradually wafted out, and even Moon Cicada, who had been gnawing grass, lay down next to Ying Long, staring at the grilled fish above the fire with her small red eyes.

"Don't move." Cheng Xi glanced at Ying Long who was curiously looking at the fire and wanted to put his finger in it to try, and slapped his hand away, using the tone of educating a little cousin of the same clan, "If you are not good, you will not give up You ate."

"Yeah!" Ying Long felt obediently put his hands back and squatted next to Yue Chan, looking at Cheng Xi eagerly.

Cheng Xi saw that the grilled fish was almost cooked, so he took out a small jar from his bosom, sprinkled it with fine salt to enhance the flavor, continued to roast for a while, and took it out to taste the taste after it tasted good.

Even if it is the roughest grilled without fine salt or other cooking seasonings, the taste of this fish has no fishy smell, the soft fish melts in the mouth without feeling the existence of fishbone, and it also contains the freshness and deliciousness of wild vegetables, not only that, After eating the fish, Cheng Xi also felt a warm current extending from his abdomen to his limbs. Unlike the previous chill, all the fatigue and soreness disappeared wherever this warm current went.

"Ah—" Ying Long opened his mouth towards Cheng Xi, enjoying Cheng Xi's service as a matter of course.

Yue Chan also looked at Cheng Xi, wanting a piece of the action.

"Can rabbits be eaten?" Cheng Xi asked suspiciously. In his hometown, he had never seen rabbits that could eat meat. Seeing that Yuechan insisted, he tore off some fish and put it in front of her.

"Yawn." Ying Long finished eating most of the fish, rubbed his slightly swollen stomach, and started yawning, closing his eyes and falling into Cheng Xi's arms.

"Ying Long?" Cheng Xi pushed Ying Long in his arms, but Ying Long was already asleep and did not respond.

"He's absorbing the aura from the golden dragon fish." Yuechan Mance gnawed at the fish meat in front of him in an orderly manner, before speaking after eating all of it, "This golden dragon fish has a meager dragon blood, which is from Ying Long Attracted by the dragon energy, he will recover some spiritual energy after eating it."

Yue Chan then signaled Cheng Xi to feed her more and turn the aura from the golden dragon fish into her own, "No one has ever treated spirit beasts like this in the fairy world. Usually, it is through medicine and alchemy that a certain amount of aura can be preserved. You This treatment actually preserved most of the aura."

"This is just an ordinary and rough cooking method. If it is used to stew fish soup, it will taste better." Cheng Xi said.

Yue Chan suddenly moved her ears, "No, someone is here."

"Then what should we do?" Cheng Xi put the wooden box on his back, and picked up Ying Long who was still soundly asleep, "Then what space coordinates, he fell asleep."

"The visitor is at least from the Royal Sky Realm. I can't hide my whereabouts." Yuechan hesitated for a moment, kicked her hind legs hard, jumped into Cheng Xi's chest, and spit out an ice-blue bead floating in the air. A ray of light came on, and then the light gradually disappeared. A door appeared in front of Cheng Xi. Yue Chan said, "This is the gate leading to Yuchan City. I will lose consciousness for a while. When I arrive at Yuchan City... be careful."
