Chapter 578: Bamboo Rat Monkey Mushroom Soup
Hai Dongqing didn't know what he was doing and couldn't speak, but he could clearly understand what Li Qingyun meant, and he could clearly feedback the news to him.
The Chai family was really restless, this was the first day of the split operation, and it was still raining, and there were actually two people who ventured to track Li Qingyun and his party, and now they were trapped in the valley by the heavy rain.
When Li Qingyun finished dealing with the two fat bamboo rats, the two Hai Dongqing had also returned, standing in the rainstorm, chirping and screaming, and gesturing to him what they saw.
Such a heavy raindrop fell on their feathers, like falling on oily paper, and all of them slipped down, failing to wet their smooth snow-white feathers.
"There are only two of them, hehe, I really look down on people. In their hearts, I'm so easy to dismiss?" Li Qingyun sneered, looking up at the mountains in the east, he suddenly thought that his two giant pythons were still stocked in the Nameless Taoist Temple, if they were called, it would be enjoyable, so that this group of self-righteous cultivators could see what the real mutated beasts were.
Of course, if these two giant pythons were called, Li Qingyun didn't have to make a move, and these two giant pythons could take advantage of the heavy rain to kill the enemies trapped in the valley to avoid the flood.
Li Qingyun has seen the combat power of the two giant pythons with his own eyes, and high-level masters of the second realm like Yi Huai'an and Xuanyin Dao Chang do not have the upper hand in the face of giant pythons, which shows how terrifying their mutation power is.
After Hai Dongqing reported the detected news, he fluttered his wings and wanted to return to the small space. The small space is full of aura, and the four seasons are like spring, it is simply a paradise in their minds, who is willing to suffer on this stormy hill.
Li Qingyun shook his head with a smile, took out two fish from the small space, threw them to them, and continued to give orders: "Do you remember those two giant pythons? They found them in a Taoist temple dozens of miles to the east and brought them here. ”
The two Hai Dongqing ate the space fish. Nodding reluctantly, he reluctantly accepted Li Qingyun's order to find the two giant pythons. The giant eagle and the giant python are actually natural enemies, but they live together in a small space, and after Li Qingyun's long-term domestication, they have eliminated each other's hostility. There will be no fights for no reason.
Li Qingyun watched the two Hai Dongqing disappear into the lightning in the east, and then returned to the camp. In the leeward place, a simple grass and rattan shed was built, and the firewood was ignited with solid alcohol, which was a miracle that it could be cooked in such a humid environment.
First, boil the bamboo rat cut into small pieces in water, and after boiling the water, remove the blood and foam. Then change the water again and add a small amount of wild boar meat pieces. Add the green onion, ginger, garlic, and the seasoning packet you carry, bring to a boil over high heat, turn to low heat and simmer.
By this time, everyone had set up their tents, and the torrential rain was not stopping, but showing signs of increasing. The humidity in the air is extremely high, and the fragrance in the pot does not drift too far and is concentrated in front of everyone. The extreme meaty aroma of that kind of game will drill into everyone's nose. The crowd didn't know how much saliva they swallowed.
After simmering for about half an hour, the meat was already stewed until it was soft and delicious, and Li Qingyun tore the cleaned lion's mane mushrooms into small strips and put them in the pot. Simmer for more than ten minutes, sprinkle with fine salt, and you're ready to cook. Both delicious. It does not damage the nutrients in Lion's Mane mushroom.
"Let's eat!" Before Li Qingyun's words fell, Gong Feiyu and the other two female cultivators had already rushed out of the tent, took out the lunch box that had been prepared a long time ago, and scooped the meat into the pot.
The single stewed bamboo rat meat is not so fragrant, and the single stewed wild boar meat is not so delicious. But the two pieces of meat are mixed together and stewed, plus the fresh lion's mane mushroom, it is simply amazing, if it is a sunny day, this fragrance can attract hungry wolves more than ten miles away.
"Don't rob, those who see it have a share...... Two aunts...... No, no, eldest sister, you are a monk, can you not grab meat with your younger brother to eat? Ouch, forget it, good men don't fight women, I'll let you shine first. Gong Feiyu grabbed a piece of meat, blew hot air, and escaped from the small shed where the pot stove was located, preferring to stand in the heavy rain and eat meat rather than be bullied by two female cultivators with bright eyes.
Li Qingyun had already filled a bowl of broth, returned to his small tent, broke the dry cakes, and soaked them in the soup to eat. This cake is called a pot helmet in Shaanxi, and there are different changes in Sichuan and Shu, some are thin and some are thick, some are fried in the pot, and some are pasted in the stove, which is not much different from ordinary baked cakes. Of course, in Xinjiang Province, it has developed into a more unique variant, called naan.
No matter what it's called, it's extremely enjoyable to soak something like this in a delicious soup and eat and drink it. The bamboo rat meat is delicate and tender, with a special fragrance, no matter how you eat it, it will not feel greasy, with wild boar, it brings meat to the soup, mixed together, the perfect combination of oligo-fragrant and oily aroma, coupled with the unique fragrance of lion's mane mushroom, people can't help but eat non-stop.
"Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable, I knew that I would be able to enjoy such a delicious taste in the mountains, and I wouldn't have been grinding with the person in charge of the Special Management Office for so long. "Dao Gu has always spoken very boldly, and her real Dharma name is Deadwood Dao Chief.
When Li Qingyun heard her Taoist name for the first time, he somehow thought about it crookedly, and thought of an idiom, called dead wood in spring. And another female cultivator dressed as a nun, whose Dharma name is Mingxin, and another idiom "Mingxin Seeing Sex" took the initiative to jump into Li Qingyun's mind, and his brain made up a lot of content.
Fortunately, they are older, and they are considered seniors in the rivers and lakes, if they were really people of similar age, Li Qingyun would have made a joke on them.
A pot of broth soon bottomed out, and the four of them were burping, lying in the tent and not wanting to move, not wanting to shabu-shabu.
The nun was a little thin-skinned and embarrassed to be lazy, which was inconsistent with the precepts she usually practiced. It's okay if a cultivator doesn't avoid meat, but if his limbs are not diligent, it will be contrary to his heart. However, he said that he was going to wash it, but he didn't move for a long time, saying that he was too full, and he would wait for the food in his stomach to digest some of it, and then go to work.
At this time, in the valley on the west side of several mountain peaks, two men, drenched in the heavy rain, hungrily hugged the tops of a big tree, and looked at the surging flood under their feet in horror. Their situation is in stark contrast to the treatment of Li Qingyun and others, one heaven and one hell.
It was already completely dark, and when the lightning appeared, they could see the surging flood beneath their feet, which had already covered most of the trees beneath them.
Xiao Qian was a little regretful and annoyed, regretting that he was called by Seinfeld to participate in this inexplicable mission, and he was annoyed that he was led into a point of no return by the Chai family. The partner next to him is called Chai Long, and the two are trapped, and he feels that it is all Chai Long's responsibility, because it is Chai Long who leads the way.
Even if there is a second realm of martial arts cultivation, there is no escape from the flood that spreads all over the mountains.
"Brother Xiao, please hold on a little longer, this torrent comes and goes quickly, and when the water is smaller, we can jump to a safe place, eat some food, and replenish our body." With the light of thunder and lightning, Chai Long saw that Xiao Qian's expression was not good, so he spoke to appease.
"Food?hmph, it has long been washed away by the flood, where does the food come from?" It's okay not to mention eating, as soon as he mentions eating, Xiao Qian suddenly became angry, and his stomach gurgled and screamed, as a martial artist, food was the main source of his strength.
"This ...... Being in the mountains, when did we cultivators ever worry about food? Brother Xiao could rest assured that as long as we fled to a safe place, the matter of food would be taken care of by the younger brother. Chai Long comforted the other party, and at the same time comforted himself.
When the flash flood rolled in from the top of the mountain, the two were so frightened that they lost their studies, leaving all the packages and burdens, and fled to this big tree, and luckily picked up a life. If they fall into the surging flood under their feet, even if they have a mysterious cultivation, they will not be able to escape the disaster.
At this time, the sky was again a chain of lightning, like a silver snake dancing, illuminating half of the sky. When Xiao Qian looked up, he was stunned to find that among the lightning, there seemed to be a huge divine eagle shuttling by.
Could it be an illusion? Hungry and dizzy? He turned his head to look at Chai Long, and was surprised to find that Chai Long's face was pale, as if he was frightened.
"What's wrong?" Xiao Qian asked.
"The one you saw in the sky...... Is the huge Hai Dongqing?" Chai Long said nervously, "That's not an illusion, it's real." Our Chai family has suffered a big loss in Lijiazhai, so we have been collecting relevant information about Li Qingyun and know that he has fed two huge pure white Haidongqing. Legend has it that the two Haidongqing were so clever that they could go into the mountains alone to hunt for him, and even tell what game their owners needed. ”
"What do you mean...... This is Li Qingyun deliberately released Hai Dongqing to investigate our location? In the middle of the night, it was still raining, and he was sick in the head, so he released Hai Dongqing to probe our location. Could it be that he had already guessed that we would come to assassinate him?" Xiao Qian asked in amazement.
Chai Long thought of the horror, and said with a pale face: "No, you don't know Li Qingyun...... If we are the patriarch of the Chai family, the one who is only half a step away from entering the third realm...... If he really disappeared in his courtyard, Li Qingyun's hidden strength might make everyone frightened. Since he sent Hai Dongqing to search for our location, it is estimated that he will take the initiative to attack and kill us first. If it weren't for the orders of the head of the house, I would never want to set foot in this mysterious mountain wilderness. ”
Xiao Qian was silent, it was definitely not easy to mess with a person who could scare a second realm spiritual cultivator into paleness. No wonder along the way, Chai Long's interest was not high, it turned out that he was forced by the Chai family. Since the Chai family knew Li Qingyun's danger, wasn't he deceived and used by them?
"Damn, I regarded Seinfeld as a confidant and friend, but he killed me. The rivers and lakes are sinister, and they can be seen in general. The half of the elixir they promised me will not be able to get it in my life. No, I must not die, I have no enmity with Li Qingyun now...... I still have a chance to live. For a while, Xiao Qian's heart turned thousands of thoughts, unwilling to be used.
At this moment, Li Qingyun had already taken the two Hai Dongqing back into the small space, and judging from the information they detected, the two giant pythons did not know where to go, and they were no longer near the Nameless Taoist Temple. And the two Chai family masters, who may be unfavorable to themselves, have been trapped in the valley by the flood, and they are in a dilemma of life and death.
"The whereabouts of the two pythons are unknown? Li Qingyun sighed secretly and thought, "It seems that tonight we have to personally deal with the two little insects in the valley who have thrown themselves into the net." Kill one less one, one less will be quieter, I want to be quiet. (To be continued......)
