Liu Mang climbed a hill and searched for it according to the method recorded in the "Food Treasures".

Sure enough, a few bamboos were found on a small dirt slope in the shade of the mountain.

Like that one, these bamboos have also turned goose yellow and have lilac flowers, but unfortunately, no bamboo fruits have been found.

"It seems that bamboo fruit really depends on chance, and it is not something that can be found casually. Liu Mang thought secretly in his heart.

After carefully searching for these bamboos, Liu Mang rushed to the next location.

The next location is on another hill. Compared to this one, the other mountain pack is even steeper.

In addition, because the bamboo forest growing in the mountains has been left unattended for a long time, in addition to the thick bamboo leaves that have fallen, there are knee-high ferns growing on the ground, which is very difficult to walk.

"If we can find four more this time, it won't be in vain. ”

According to the rewards given by the space bounty, a bamboo fruit can get 100 exchange points and an automatic perception of 10 points of the Holy Chef's Heart.

The former doesn't matter, but the heart of the holy chef is what Liu Mang needs the most now.

If you can find 4 more, plus the first one, you will have 50 points together, which is completely worth Liu Mang's income from working in the store for a week.

"No?" finally climbed to the place, and when he looked there, Liu Mang's heart was half cold.

The bamboo here grows lush and green, and there is no trace of being eaten by bamboo ants at all.

"Hey, this trip is in vain. Liu Mang sighed.

"Master, don't be discouraged, go twenty meters ahead and take a look. Xiaobao reminded.

"Going forward?" Liu Mang pushed aside the blocked bamboo and walked forward according to Xiaobao's prompts.

"Really!" Twenty meters ahead, a huge rock stood on the top of the mountain, and this rock protruded outwards like a natural cover, blocking the sun and rain from the sky.

And under this cover, there are several bamboos that are much smaller than the surrounding ones, and these bamboos have been gnawed by bamboo ants and have changed color.

"I guess there is. Liu Mang took a closer look, and suddenly his heart jumped out of his mouth with joy.

There are bamboo fruits! and more than one!

There were about seven or eight bamboos under the rocks, and each one had about a dozen bamboo fruits on it.

As soon as the wind blew, these bamboo fruits swayed gently on the branches, shaking Liu Mang's mind.

"It's developed!" Liu Mang's mood at the moment was like a mouse falling into a rice bowl, and his teeth were about to fall out.

Suppressing his excitement, he immediately began to pick.

One, two, three, ten, fifty......

The bamboo fruit on the bamboo tree kept disappearing in Liu Mang's hand, and he received it into the space.

Finally, after picking and counting, plus the one you got at the beginning, there are exactly 100, each with 10 points, which is 1000 points of perception value.

"space, submit a bounty. After carefully checking it again and confirming that there was no omission, Liu Mang said silently in his heart.

[Bounty completed, reward exchange value 10,000 points, current progress of Holy Chef's Heart 2040/10,000]

"Yes, do a few more bounty tasks, and you'll get the final reward soon. ”

Coming down from Zhushan, it was already more than five o'clock in the afternoon.

"Grandma, what time is the last trip to Fengcheng? "The taxi driver has already left, and it seems that the only way to get back to Fengcheng is to take the shuttle.

"The last trip was five o'clock, and it was late. The old lady replied, holding a hen in her hand.

"Huh, is it late?" Liu Mang's face was full of frustration.

"Boss, don't go, just stay here for one night, I'll cook right away." The old lady raised the hen in her hand: "Try our own chickens, which taste much better than the chickens in your city." ”

"Grandma, this can't be helped. When Liu Mang heard this, he hurriedly stepped forward and prepared to snatch the chicken from the old lady's hand.

The old lady and the little boy's house still live in that kind of adobe house, and they are very poor at first glance, and this chicken may still be kept for laying eggs, and they must be reluctant to eat it.

"It's an old hen that can't lay eggs, and I've wanted to kill it for a long time. ”

"Grandma, I really don't need to. ”

"Uncle, you just let grandma kill it, I've wanted to eat chicken for a long time. The little boy said with a shy face.

"Yes, my good grandson wants to eat it too. The old lady smiled so hard that the wrinkles on her face widened.

"Oh well. Liu Mang thought about it and agreed. It's a big deal that when you leave tomorrow, it's good to leave a little money for the old lady.

"Grandma, I'll help you kill it. ”

"No, I'll just come, you can rest. ”

"It's okay, I'm a chef, I'm good at this. ”

"Alright then, I'll go boil water for you. The old lady handed the hen in her hand to Liu Mang, and moved her little feet to the house.

"Little friend, what's your name?" asked Liu Mang, pinching the root of the hen's wings, to the little boy next to him.

"Tan Yu'er. The little boy replied angrily.

"Yu'er, where are your parents?" asked Liu Mang as he plucked the feathers from the hen's neck.

"I went to work. ”

"Bring me the bowl and the knife. ”

"Oh. Tan Yu'er answered and went.

"Are you afraid?" After Tan Yu'er brought the knife and bowl, Liu Mang asked again.

"Kill chickens, of course you're not afraid!" Tan Yu'er looked very disdainful of Liu Mang's question.

"Okay, you can help me put the bowl underneath. Liu Mang took the kitchen knife in Tan Yuer's hand and twisted the hen's neck.

With a knife, blood flowed out of the hen's neck and dripped into the bowl in Tan Yuer's hand.

After the blood ran out, Liu Mang put the chicken into a wooden bucket, took the bowl in Tan Yuer's hand, and walked into the kitchen.

"Boss, are the chickens killed?" asked the old lady, who was boiling water under the stove.

"Well, kill it, I'll deal with the chicken blood first, and then pluck the feathers later. ”

Liu Mang took the salt from the stove, put a little in the chicken blood, and then stirred it well with chopsticks.

The effect of adding salt is to make the taste of chicken blood more tender and coagulate faster.

"Grandma, you can rest, I'll just come. Liu Mang checked in the kitchen and took the tongs for burning the fire in the old lady's hand.

"Okay, then I'll be the shopkeeper today. The old lady smiled when she saw that she couldn't refuse.

"Uncle, I'll help you light the fire. Tan Yu'er walked into the kitchen.

"Okay, you light the fire, I'll prepare the cooking. Liu Mang handed the tongs to Tan Yu'er.

Tan Yu'er took the tongs and added two sticks of firewood to the stove.

Liu Mang opened the pot, took a large scoop and scooped the boiling water in the pot into a bucket, and added a few scoops of cold water.

"Don't stop the fire, I'll use the boiling water later. Liu Mang commanded, walked out of the kitchen with boiling water, poured it into the bucket where the hen was placed, and began to pluck the feathers.
