The Priest Who Travels Through the Beast World Comes

Chapter 101 The Birth of the Stone Mill

In the stone forest, Chu Li led Ao Zhan and other orcs around for a while.

Chu Li stopped and walked, looking around, apparently he didn't find anything that suits him.

Ao Zhan stepped forward and asked, "Chu Li, what are you looking for?"

"Find stones for millstones."

"Stone mill?"

Chu Li nodded and explained patiently, "The stone mill is a tool for grinding small things such as grain into pulp and powder. There are textures at the joints, and things enter the middle of the two layers from the upper grinding eye, move outward along the texture, and are ground when rolling through the two layers to form powder."

Li Chang imagined the scene, and it was hard to imagine something he had never seen before, "Grind it into pulp and powder? How big is the stone?"

"The stone mill does not rely on the size to grind things, but on the texture underneath it."

Li Chang shook his head, his mind was muddled, "High Priest, I still don't quite understand."

"It doesn't matter, you will know when I polish the mill."

"Ah."

Ao Zhan was thinking about the round stone in his heart, his eyes looked around like laser beams, and Chu Li's matter was more important to him than his own.

His gaze stopped suddenly, "Chu Li, do you think that stone over there is what you were looking for?"

Under a camphor tree, under the cover of many rocks, a semicircular stone emerged.

Chu Li quickened his pace and picked up the surrounding stones, the more he picked up the more pleasantly surprised he was...

The stone is not strictly round, and has edges and corners around it, which needs to be polished. The shortest diameter is close to one meter, which is very suitable for upper stone grinding.

"That's fine, Ao Zhan, you have a good eye."

Ao Zhan smiled, and the smile softened the deep lines of his face, "I can find it because you said it clearly."

Chu Li smiled at him, "The credit is yours, I won't steal it from you."

Everyone laughed, and then helped Chuli pick up the surrounding stones, and took out the big stone and laid it on the ground.

The more Chu Li looked, the more he was satisfied. "We found the upper mill. Next, we need to find the lower mill. The stone of the lower mill needs to be larger than the upper mill, because the edge of the lower mill needs a groove for receiving powder or oars."

"Okay, we got it."

Although there are many stones, they are very difficult to find. When I finally found them, I had gone through the stone forest to another forest.

……

Everyone worked together to lift the two stones back and put them on the flat ground.

Chu Li picked up a stone and drew a circle on the edge of the two stones, "Ao Zhan, can you lend me your stone grinding tool?"

"Of course, I'll get it for you."

The tools are all made of stone, not very sharp, and only a small piece can be ground each time, which is really grinding slowly.

But fortunately, Chu Li is not a person who is eager for success and has a quick temper. Although it is very difficult, he is still patient.

Under his careful handwork, the upper stone mill was ground into a round shape by him, and the texture was slowly ground out by him, which looks pretty good.

Next, we need to deal with the lower grinding, which is more difficult to deal with. Everything else is fine, that is, the grooves. There are many stones that need to be polished off the grooves, and the bottom of the stones cannot be knocked off. The technical requirements are very high.

However, this is a strong point. The adult orcs in the tribe have been polishing stone bowls and basins all year round. They have rich experience. Under the guidance of Chu Li, they grind slowly. When one person is tired, another person is replaced. This cycle, the next layer Also polished out perfectly.

While they were polishing the stone mill, those who were idle were cleaning the kudzu root, and then cutting the kudzu root into pellets, making preparations for grinding.

Everyone worked hard, and no one complained about being tired.

Lie Shan brought Chu Li a bowl of water, and said with concern, "High Priest, it's hot, drink some water."

Chu Li took the water and drank it without hesitation. After sweating so much, he was already too thirsty. "Everyone, go drink some water, take a rest, work slowly, don't worry."

"Yes." This time, everyone didn't refuse. The sun was scorching, and the sun was shining brightly. They sweated a lot during the busy time, and the most lacking thing was water.

After the stone was polished, Chu Li asked Ao Zhan and the others to place it under a big tree.

There is always shade under the big tree, even in the sun you can use the grinder.

Use a brush and water to carefully rinse the stone mill, and then try to grind kudzu root.

Put a stone basin under the outlet of the groove, scoop the crushed kudzu root into the grinding eye, and then turn the upper grinding disc.

The kudzu root is soaked in water. When scooping out the pulp, the kudzu root and the water are half.

After the upper mill turned a few times, white paddles flowed out from between the two discs.

Chu Li rubbed it with his fingers, and the grind was so fine that there was almost no graininess, not even a grain of sand.

Yes, it's a good grind.

During the process, everyone changed to grind the mill, to add kudzu root pieces to each other, and to change the oar receiver basin when it was full, and to change one after another...

After Chu Li saw that everyone was using the grinder, he took people to cut bamboo to weave fine sieves and bamboo plaques.

The fine sieve is used to filter the kudzu root impurities in the paddle. There is not a lot of cloth for filtering here, so a fine bamboo sieve is used instead.

Bamboo plaques are used to dry kudzu root powder.

The delicacy he plans to make is Pueraria vermicelli.

Whether it is kudzu root powder or kudzu root vermicelli, bamboo plaques are needed to dry.

After the fine sieve was compiled, Chuli took it to try.

Put a stone basin at the bottom, put a fine sieve on top, scoop the kudzu root oar into the fine sieve, let the oar flow down spontaneously without moving the sieve.

After one basin was filtered, Chu Li scooped up the oar in the stone basin below to see that there were no impurities, and the filtration was very clean, so there was no need to filter it a second time.

The impurities after filtering are the fruits of kudzu root, which are concentrated in a basin, which can squeeze out the juice and use it for pancakes, without wasting anything.

Whenever Chu Lixin does something, there are always people who learn it.

When Chu Li was about to filter the second pot, the tools in his hand were snatched away, and he was asked to rest.

He is willing to let everyone do it, and after everyone learns it, he can complete it independently next time, which is considered to have achieved his goal.

There are a lot of kudzu roots, which have not been cleaned. So far, only one-fifth of the amount has been disposed of.

In the middle of the afternoon, the fruits of Pueraria lobata had accumulated to the tenth pot. Chu Li planned to bake pancakes, so he baked them in a large pot on the ground.

Squeeze out the water from the Pueraria lobata fruit, put it in a basin, then beat in the spot eggs, add salt, minced green onion and garlic, pepper, pepper powder, and minced wild vegetables, and stir evenly to form a paste.

Xin Yao and Xiao Yangyang took care of the fire.

Xiao Yangyang has been learning how to cook food by Chuli's side.

Now Chuli wanted pancakes, but he didn't know how, so he watched while helping to light the fire.

"Brother Chuli, is this cake delicious?" Xiao Yangyang closed his eyes, took a deep breath with great enjoyment, it smelled so good.

Chu Li looked amused, "Xiao Yangyang, what scent do you smell?"

Xiao Yangyang opened his eyes and said with a smile, "There are oily scents, egg liquid scents, shallot scents, and a charred scent, all of which smell good."

Chu Li turned over the cake in the pan, and the top was oily, covered with a piece of burnt yellow like fried rice cakes, very nice.

"How does this pie look?"

Xiao Yangyang gave a thumbs up, and said in a crisp voice, "Okay, very good, I really want to eat it just looking at it."

Chu Li smiled, "You describe it well."

"Hee hee hee……"

"Brother Chuli, when can you eat this?" Xin Yao licked his lips and sniffed his nose, looking like a greedy cat.

Chu Li turned the bottom side up and checked, it was not yet brown, "It's almost there, are you hungry?"

Xin Yao smiled and said, "I'm hungry, I wasn't hungry at first, but I'm hungry when I smell this fragrant scent."

The scent is sweet and sweet, and it whets the appetite. Not to mention Xin Yao, he wants to eat it a little bit, so Chu Li smiled, "I'll serve it to you when the cake is baked."

Xin Yao couldn't help cheering, "Okay."

Shovel the cake out of the pan and put it in the Shau Kei. The cake is as big as the largest pizza, about the thickness of two pieces of Indian flying cakes overlapped. Both sides are fried to golden brown. It looks crunchy and crispy. of.

The children gathered around immediately, "Let's eat cakes, let's eat cakes..."

Chu Li looked at twenty or so children, and wanted to eat them all at once, then...

He took the knife on the side and cut the cake into small triangles, which happened to be a piece for each person, "Take it and eat it, taste it first, I will fry it again right away, there are still a lot."

"it is good."

The children took a small piece each, and then walked to the side to chew and swallow slowly. The delicious food is not long-lasting, and they all cherish it very much.

Chu Li glanced at the children, feeling a little sad, in this world of lack of clothing and food, eating a full meal is the happiest thing.

Go ahead and pancake and do your best to change that.

The Liangya orc man, who watched the whole process of Chuli pancakes, was gearing up and eager to try, "High Priest, we want to try pancakes too, can we?"

Chu Li smiled and nodded, "Of course."

One of the sub-orcs waved to the two older children, "Come here, light a fire for Uncle, and I'll eat cakes for you later."

When the two children heard this, they immediately agreed, "Okay."

Like Chu Li, wash the pot, put some oil, heat it up, scoop in the cake paste, shape it, and turn it over.

Chu Li took a look at the two people's pans, they were well cooked, very good, "The pancakes you two made are good, keep it up."

"Yeah." The praise from the high priest seemed to cheer up the body, and the spirit couldn't help but cheer up.

The side is also very busy, with a strong atmosphere of fireworks, it really looks like a scene in a busy farming season.

Chu Li cut each of the fried cakes into eight pieces and asked the children to serve them to the laborers.

The children shuttled through the crowd with Shau Kei, adding a touch of warmth to the busy scene.

Everyone took a piece consciously, gobbled it up and continued to work. It seemed that only in this way could they live up to the delicacies.

The filtered fruits of Pueraria lobata were continuously delivered, turned into delicacies by Chu Li's beautiful and skillful hands, and then entered into everyone's stomachs, forming a beautiful cycle.

When the sun went down, Pueraria, with the joint efforts of everyone, completed three-fifths of the amount, and it took half a day to finish it.

"Everyone will stop here today, and come back tomorrow afternoon to continue working. What should you do in the morning? It's getting dark now, so go back quickly. You won't be able to see the road in a while."

"Yes, High Priest."
