Chapter 81: Strange Ore
Jiu Wentian didn't say anything, but went directly into the cave to see the ores, which were slightly purple, and felt like obsidian with a little purple. However, this strange function also made Jiu Wentian wonder, why does this ore make water delicious?
The water here should have seeped down from above, filtered and precipitated layer by layer, and the taste should not be bad, but it may not have anything to do with these ores, it is just a container. Just like a glass of red wine, whether it is in a goblet or a disposable paper cup, the taste will not change, it may just be the person's feeling that has changed.
Jiu Wentian looked at the place where the water was dripping, and then reached out to hold a drop of water, the water droplet on Jiu Wentian's hand still had a cool feeling, and Jiu Wentian, who took a few more drops, drank it all in one gulp, and felt that this water was quite delicious. Then Jiu Wentian leaned down and scooped a little water into his mouth, and compared it and found that there was no difference, which was also where Jiu Wentian wondered.
Then he said to Shoumu, "Why do I think this ore won't make the water delicious?"
Shou Mu's eyes widened, and he asked in disbelief, "My lord, do you mean that this ore is of no use at all?"
Jiu Wentian nodded, so as to confirm it, and then said: "Well, although these ores seem to have some strange effects, they really can't change the problem of water quality, maybe it's just an ore that can be used as a container." No matter how you look at it, it looks like an ordinary layer of rock, after accumulating over time to save up this water and open a hole, the tiger happened to take a sip of water, and the water here is filtered layer by layer, and it is naturally sweet and delicious, so there is nothing wrong with the ore itself. ”
Shou Mu was stunned for a moment, and then said, "Then why does the water contained in these ores taste good?"
Jiu Wentian said: "I guess it should be because of the use of fire." ”
Lei Hu was bandaging his arm at this time, not so much bandaging as simply stopping the bleeding, I saw him holding a handful of leaves directly applied to his wound, and there were some chewed herbs on it, which was also their traditional method of stopping bleeding. I saw Lei Hu let out a slight pain, but this was only a slight one.
Duoduo stepped forward and asked, "Patriarch Thunder, are you feeling better?"
Lei Hu took a long breath and said, "It's much better, how are you, what's the matter?"
"No, I'm fine. Duoduo said with a wry smile.
Lei Hu clenched his fists angrily, punched the ground and said: "That damn wolf clan actually came to the side of the snakes, it must be that the snakes gave them some benefits, they dared to shadow us behind their backs, and the next time I let them see them again, they will definitely not be able to eat and walk around." ”
Lei Huo took a small cup and said, "Patriarch, this is freshly brewed tea, you can drink it while it's hot." ”
Lei Hu nodded, took the cup and took a sip directly, not afraid of being hot, "This water is really delicious, I think it can completely benefit all the animals in our third-order forest, if you drink such sweet water, your mood will also improve, I really don't understand what those long worms are thinking." ”
"Thunder Patriarch, long time no see. Jiu Wentian's voice came from behind Lei Hu, and Lei Hu turned his head and said to Jiu Wentian: "Ao, it's you, what are you doing here?"
Jiu Wentian said with a smile: "Gu Qi said that there is movement here, let me come and take a look." ”
Lei Hu nodded, and said a little helplessly: "I also told you some time ago, it's still the matter of that ore, and Gu Qi can't take care of our own affairs, if you're here to persuade you, then you might as well go back." ”
Jiu Wentian shook his head and said: "Originally, I also wanted to persuade the fight, thinking that it is better to live in peace than to fight and kill, but I think you also understand this truth, so I went with Shoumu to see the ore, originally I didn't have much hope, but the result surprised me, so I came to you." ”
Lei Hu asked, "What did you find?"
Jiu Wentian said indifferently: "I found that in fact, the ore you said can make water delicious does not exist at all, it is just used as a container to hold water, and with a container you can heat water, which is the power of cooked food." Not only that, but you can also use this ore to make many things, such as teppanyaki. ”
Lei Hu was a little confused, but still asked, "You mean to say that all this is because we are suspicious?"
"According to the facts, yes, but you have also gone from the era of no containers to the age of containers. The rudimentary containers you used to make can be replaced, and I can help you make some pots and stuff like that. ”
Lei Hu was silent for a long time before he said, "If that's the case, I have to thank you." But if you try to deceive me under this pretense, you will know the consequences. ”
"Don't worry, Patriarch Thunder, can you help me find some stones first? Jiu Wentian said with some embarrassment.
Thunder Patriarch nodded and said, "Of course it's no problem, Lei Huo, Duoduo, you go and move some bigger stones." ”
Jiu Wentian took out the Holy Demon Sword here, and then said to the Holy Demon Sword, "Gabriel!"
Gabriel came out of the sword directly and stood in front of Jiu Wentian, bowed deeply and said, "Master, what do you command?"
Jiu Wentian asked a little puzzled: "Gabriel, why didn't you enter my body this time, I'm still a little uncomfortable haha." ”
Gabriel explained: "This mountain and river diagram is the soul world, and now that the master and I are in the soul state, there is no need for that. If I'm not mistaken, this should be the third-order forest of the Watchland, is there something going on?"
Jiu Wentian said embarrassedly: "That's the case, there is a little contradiction between the Tiger Clan and the Snake Clan, and I need your help to resolve this contradiction, I hope you will cooperate." ”
"The master doesn't have to be so polite," Gabriel couldn't stand Jiu Wentian's enthusiasm, generally Gu Boyong ordered Gabriel and Damocles as a monarch and a minister, but he didn't expect Jiu Wentian to be very gentle, "Do you need me to destroy the Tiger Clan or the Snake Clan?"
Lei Hu was a little stunned on the side, Gabriel he had definitely seen it, and Damocles had heard of it occasionally. These two can destroy the existence of the mountain and river map with one blow, Lei Hu didn't dare to speak at all, and now he said the wrong thing to anger Jiu Wentian, but he was about to be wiped out, and he was not stupid enough to provoke such a character.
Jiu Wentian scratched his head and said: "You don't have to fight and kill, I want you to help them make a few stone pots, after all, I won't do anything like an iron pot, I can only use stones instead." ”
At this time, Lei Huo brought up a relatively large stone, and after looking at it, Jiu Wentian said: "This stone is not bad, it can be made into a large cauldron, Gabriel, you see, take a sword and cut out a circle from the middle, and then thin the bottom of the pot, and the round stone can be made into a small stone." I'm going to make stoves, quilts, and the like later, so I'll trouble you today. ”
Gabriel nodded, and said with a smile on his face, "Okay, it's all up to the master." ”
Lei Hu was a little surprised, to say that the existence of the god blocking and killing the god and the Buddha was the first to die, it was designated as Gabriel and Damocles, according to legend, no creature had ever seen their smiles, and even if they did, it was at the last moment of their lives. When Gabriel laughed, a trace of cold sweat broke out on Lei Hu's forehead.
After a while, the Tiger Clan and other animals that supported the Tiger Clan all found different stones, and according to Jiu Wentian's statement, Gabriel waved the Holy Demon Sword around, and basically a container was built in a few seconds. Lei Hu looked at the containers and then said to Jiu Wentian, "After all, these containers of yours are just a little more elaborate than what we made. ”
Jiu Wentian said: "It's not like that, the containers are all about the same, you use these containers to boil water and try it, I think the taste should be exactly the same as that ore." ”
Lei Hu was a little skeptical, but he had no choice but to say such a thing for a long time, so he had to try it, so he simply found someone to really test it. Unexpectedly, after tasting a bite, the consequences were really as Jiu Wentian said, Lei Hu was silent for a while and asked: "You're right, it's really no difference, but why didn't we know it before?"
Jiu Wentian said: "That's just your psychological effect, but the boiled water does taste better, you just lack a container, your container was not very good before, so the taste of the boiled water will be much worse." Well, I'll teach you how to use these pots, catch some fish, and I'll make you a fish soup. ”
"Fish soup, what is it?" Lei Hu said with some confusion, "Do you want to cook fish?"
Jiu Wentian nodded, and then said: "It's a pity, there is no seasoning, otherwise it must be a lot better." ”
Lei Hu hurriedly said: "Seasoning? We all use this fruit here to grind into powder, and it will be more delicious to put some when eating." ”
Saying that, Lei Hu took out a red powder wrapped in meat skin and showed it to Jiu Wentian, Jiu Wentian took it and sniffed it, then dipped his finger and tasted it, and in an instant, Jiu Wentian felt that this powder contained the taste of all the seasonings he knew in his previous life.
I couldn't help but retch, Lei Hu said next to him: "There was once a tiger like you who tried like this, and he said that when he eats, it will be so delicious, so wouldn't it be more delicious for him to eat a bite? ”
Jiu Wentian said yes, you won. After that, Jiu Wentian took Gabriel's pot and set up a stove, made a fire out of corrupted wood and flint, processed the fish and put it in the pot, added clear river water and powder, and waited quietly.
