Chapter 41: Jam Pioneer
Masters......
This senior sister doesn't talk about the point every time......
By the way, does she know that I'm in this old mansion?
The free-falling Xiao Ran thought for a long time, and finally fell from the hundreds of centimeters high cypress tree to the ground. He looked up, and the very large praying mantis, and the cicada where his sister's soul resided, seemed to be very few.
After a few seconds, a piece of cicada's wings fell from the tree.
This...... Don't......
Could it be that the mantis just hooked directly cut off the wings of the senior sister?
No...... That's just the cicada's wings......
No, it's Senior Sister, this revenge must be avenged......
Xiao Ran suddenly had two tangled voices in his head. He turned around and walked towards the cave. If Senior Sister knew where she was, then she would definitely come to her. If the senior sister doesn't know, then even if the senior sister doesn't show up again, she can find a way to get out of here until the Chinese New Year......
By the way, the senior sister said that as soon as the set time comes, it will become a human form, so how long is the set time......
Before he knew it, Xiao Ran returned to the Sea Buckthorn Wasteland.
The rattan pepper line did not disappoint Xiao Ran, and the six yellow toon leaves were full of thatch berries washed with morning dew. Like lovers, they stood quietly in six formations, waiting for the final arrangement given to them by Bu Burn.
Xiao Ran stepped forward and looked at these thatched berries that were much bigger than his body, and he seemed to hear the hoarse call of the thatched berries: "Eat me...... Eat me...... Eat me ......"
I don't know how long the thatch berries on these leaves have been drying, but they have all dried up.
"You've brought back so many thatchberries so quickly?" Xiao Ran asked.
"Quick?" said the rattan pepper spread on the ground, "It's been almost twelve hours since the morning." ”
What the...... Twelve hours? Obviously, I set out from the rattan pepper group, went to the cypress tree, and soon returned. Just back and forth, no more than three hours at most, why does rattan pepper say that it has been more than twelve hours?
"Twelve hours?" Xiao Ran asked.
Tengjiao continued to lie on the ground, pointed to the sky with his tentacles, and said lazily: "Of course, look at it, it will be dusk soon." ”
Xiao Ran looked up and saw that it was almost dusk. But I obviously feel that it has only been three hours, why ...... Why did 12 hours pass?
How long have you been on the cypress tree......
......
"Prime Minister, Prime Minister, when will our raspberry jam be ready. A worker ant brought Xiao Ran back to his senses.
That's right, thatch berry jam......
Xiao Ran looked at the thatchberries that had been dried, he was going to make the berries into jam first, and when there was sugar, it would not be too late to add sugar. Then, Xiao Ran instructed the workers to transport the berries to the three large glass tanks prepared as planned, and used three layers of plastic wrap to wrap the glass tanks layer by layer.
Finally, the exposed plastic wrap is buried under the soil.
In this way, most of the entire glass jar was under the dirt, and on the dirt, eight or nine millimeters were exposed, and three sealed jam vats were completed.
Xiao Ran thought to himself, although such a rough jam making method saves many steps, mashing, pickling, boiling, adding sugar and lemon, Xiao Ran believes that the taste of this wild fruit itself is enough to crush many jams on the market. Mashing and boiling is too difficult for the current colony, but sugar and lemons can be found. Just find the sugar and boil the spearberries in this vat before they spoil.
The workers looked at the three large tanks and waited in front of the tanks in a sluggish manner.
"Let's go back and rest. Xiao Ran shouted.
"Rest?"
"Rest?"
"But the raspberry jam isn't good yet. ”
"yes, this raspberry jam isn't good yet. ”
"Berry jam!"
"Berry jam!"
"Listen to me, it takes time for the thatch berry jam to form, at least 15 days before it can turn from fresh thatch berries into thatch berry jam. Xiao Ran explained.
After hearing this, all the worker ants were a little disappointed.
"It took so long to wait......"
Although the waiting time was unexpected by everyone, the workers gave Xiao Ran a new title - Jam Pioneer.
After giving the title, just when everyone was about to go back to the Jingjing Cave to rest, Hua Jiao stepped forward and said: "It has been three days since the last trial of the wizard, and three days ago the wizard Zeng said that he took refuge in the Sea Buckthorn Zerg United Nations because of the rebellion of the Shangxuan Empire." Today, we are going to judge once again whether the wizard violated the honest treaty of the United Nations Constitution of the Sea Buckthorn Zerg. ”
After listening to this, Xiao Ran remembered that there was still this matter. The wizard was so miraculous at the time that he didn't know if he was really a magic stick or had two brushes.
Xiao Ran gathered all the workers in the anti-sperm cave and the four brothers of the Shi family to start the second trial of the wizard.
Xiao Ran sat at the top, the eight heads of the United Nations sat in turn, the wizard was invited to the position of trial, and the other worker ants sat or lay down, watching the excitement on the side.
The ants were in their places, and when everything was ready for the meeting, the second judgment of the wizard began.
"Huajiao, you should read first, our honest treaty of the United Nations. Xiao Ran said.
"Yes. Hua Jiao got up, bowed to the ants with his tentacles, and began to read: "The law says: The Sea Buckthorn Zerg United Nations does not accept ants that betray their own country, and the Sea Buckthorn Zerg United Nations does not accept dishonest ants. ”
"Very well, please be seated. After Xiao Ran affirmatively evaluated the pepper, he said to the ants: "Honesty is the foundation of the ants." Let's not talk nonsense, let's just judge whether the wizard has obeyed the pact of honesty!Old wizard, do you have anything to say?"
After hearing this, the old wizard ant stood up and said, "Ahem...... Naturally, I followed the honesty pact. ”
"But the Shangxuan Empire has not rebelled, and at this time, it is exactly three days since the last trial. Xiao Ran said.
The ants began to talk.
"yes. ”
"yes, yes, it's been three days. ”
"It's been three days, isn't what the wizard said a lie? ”
......
The old wizard ant was not in a hurry, he leaned back to his position, and said, "Ahem...... The empire has rebelled. ”
After hearing this, Xiao Ran wondered why this old wizard still didn't admit it, what was his purpose?
"Nine mile. Xiao Ran shouted.
"Yes!" replied Jiulixiang as she walked out of the queue.
"Did you come back from exploring the outpost of the Shangxuan Empire?"
"It's back. ”
"Let him come up. ”
"Yes!"
Moments later, a worker ant in charge of the sentry entered the judgment hall. The sentry worker ant made it clear that he had just returned from the Shangxuan Empire, and there was no rebellion there.
"The ant evidence is here, what else do you have to say?" asked Xiao Ran.
"Ahem...... Yes. The wizard ant replied.
"It takes more than an hour for the outpost worker ants to come here from the Shangxuan Empire. In other words, the sentry worker ant brought back the news more than an hour ago, so his message was not prepared. To know if the Shangxuan Empire really rebelled within three days, you need to get the latest news from the Shangxuan Empire. ”
This old wizard ant has some truth in that.
"Okay, then according to your wishes, we will send some more worker ants to explore, and when they return, we will make a decision. Xiao Ran said.
