Chapter 124: Eating Together
"Is this Snow Tea?" Are you sure this isn't some kind of mutant grass?" Xing Lu asked Chu Yu beside him. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Hehe~ This is what snow tea really looks like. Chu Yu smiled, "Snow tea is not a type of tea, it is a kind of grass bud, which is picked and roasted by the world to replace tea." The fragrance is sweet, the taste is slightly bitter, contains a variety of ingredients that are beneficial to the human body, can lower blood lipids, lose weight, wake up the brain, clear heat and relieve heatstroke, shengjin, moisten the lungs, cough, and have significant curative effects on hypertension, neurasthenia, pharyngitis, etc. ”
"When it snows, it begins to sprout, and when the snow covers it, it grows young leaves, which are the white snow tea. Chu Yu paused and continued, "The plants that have mutated after the cataclysm no longer follow their previous growth habits, but this name has been set and will not change again." ”
Xing Lu looked at the delicate grass sprout in front of him that was slightly curved and roundworm-like, and carefully took out the Tang knife and cut it towards its roots.
"Be careful!" Chu Yu's eyes were quick, and he pulled her up, allowing her to dodge the grass sprouts that shot like needles.
"Hehe~ I will always forget that this is no longer the docile plant that people treated casually as before, fortunately with you~" Xing Lu had palpitations.
"You must keep this matter in mind and never be careless. Chu Yu told her seriously, she had him by her side just now, and in case he wasn't there, she would have to pay attention to herself. After the cataclysm, there are not a few people who have accidents because of their previous habits.
"Well, I remember. ”
……
The bitterness in Ling Tian's heart kept spreading, and the more Chu Yu cared for her, the more sad he became.
God knows how much he thinks that the person in front of Xing Lu is him, so that he can be good to her in the open, and he can hold her hand and walk side by side with her. But this can only be a dream, a delusion that he can't sustain with all his scheming.
He hoped that Chu Yu would be good to her, so that she would not be in pain or disappointed, but he also hoped that they could be separated for something, which meant that he might have the opportunity to get close to her. He felt like he was going crazy, and he was running for abuse when his head was pumped.
……
Compared to the battles they had experienced in the Kanda swamps, the resistance of these mutant plants was nothing short of tickling, and everyone easily got their hands on snow tea, which was extremely precious and rare even before the cataclysm.
By the time they were satisfied, the sun had set, and it was time for dinner.
At noon, because Chu Yu and Ling Tian were fighting vigorously, they each took out buns and other foods that they held with their hands to solve the problem at will. Now that there was time, Ling Tian suggested that everyone stop here for a good meal, and rest here at night by the way.
There was no objection to resting here, but how to settle the dinner made them disagree.
In Chu Yu's opinion, it must be best to solve the irrelevant problems separately, but Ling Tian seemed to not notice his unhappiness, and approached Xing Lu with a mutated yak.
"Can you help us deal with this? Don't worry, we won't be less of you, because our group is not good at this. "Ling Tian was telling the truth, except for the meal by the campfire that they had eaten all the way through, they hadn't started a single fire, and all the food they had eaten was the ones they had prepared in the Heavenly Blessing Base.
It's not that they don't want to change their tastes, it's that they're really not good at cooking. You let them go and help people fight, they might be able to do a good job, let them cook...... Even if someone dares to do it, I'm afraid no one will dare to eat it.
"I'm going to make a hot pot to eat tonight, anyway, I want to make a soup base, I can get you an extra one. However, the processing of these meats ...... "Xing Lu is not willing to become a professional butcher."
"Oh, we'll handle the meat ourselves, just give us the soup base. Ling Tian hurriedly said, "If you don't mind, the meat is all prepared by us." "Anyway, for people like them who carry a scalpel all year round, it's not easy to cut these things into even slices.
"Okay, you prepare the meat, we prepare the greens, and everyone eats them together. Xing Lu thought about it and didn't refuse.
Because Ling Tian had done them a great favor and solved their problem of storing their belongings, Chu Yu couldn't object, so he could only silently give Xing Lu a hand on the side and help her set up the stove.
Chu Xiran has been very excited these days because she has fulfilled her dream of being an explorer, and she has also helped Xing Lu wash all kinds of mutated vegetables on the side for the first time. She even cooked a big pot of stewed bird's nest with lotus seeds and lilies for dessert.
When everything is ready, dinner begins.
Because there were too many people, Xing Lu divided into two pots to cook, so Ling Tian naturally sat with Xing Lu.
"Trouble Ling Shaorang, I want to sit with my sister Lulu. Seeing her eldest brother's depressed and uneasy appearance, Chu Xiran felt that the time had come to play the role of her younger sister.
She didn't care that Ling Tian hadn't replied yet, and squeezed herself into the middle of him and Xing Lu. Ling Tian couldn't, so he could only retreat to the side.
"Excuse me, Ling Shao, I want to sit with my Xiaoxi. Roach followed suit.
"Phew, who wants to be next to you?!!" Chu Xiran was disgusted, but in his heart he gave Luo Qi a thumbs up for this assist, good job, well done!
"Hehe~ Aren't we always eating next to each other, I won't eat next to you!" Luo Qi replied with a smile, and his understanding from childhood to adulthood made him see that Chu Xiran was not only not angry, but very much in favor of his own approach. He knew that this was her attempt to block Ling Tian, but he was still very happy, at least in her heart, he was from the same country as her.
Ling Tian moved to the side again in embarrassment, so that he was even farther away from Xing Lu, he couldn't help but regret in his heart, it was better to sit opposite her at the beginning, this was good, not only could he not be next to her, but now it was a little difficult to even see her.
As the slices of meat were cooked, the whole camp was filled with fragrance, and the people next to them couldn't wait to eat it.
Xing Lu's skills are good, the soup base is fragrant, and she specially added some chili peppers to it to get rid of the moisture in everyone's body for a while.
"Spicy and fragrant, Miss Xing, you are really a good craft!" the team member brought by Ling Tian praised.
"Hehe~ yes? Then you need to eat more. Xing Lu said politely.
"Of course, I haven't eaten so comfortably for a long time, thank you Miss Xing. After the man finished speaking, he saw the scrambling of his partner next to him, "Hey, don't grab it so hard, you guys should leave some for me!"
"Uh...... That one...... Our cook stayed at the base and didn't follow. Their imageless appearance made others think how pitiful it was to follow him Ling Tian. Unable to stand the contemptuous gaze of the person next to him, Ling Tian opened his mouth and explained with difficulty, although such explanations were in vain. (To be continued.) )
