28- To cook, you have to use a pot
"Wiel, drink a little of the water here, and you'll be well...... Vere?! Where are you going? Winnie rushed to the waterhole and found a drooling Weir behind her. Although the consciousness is a little blurry when driving, the pace and posture are unusually steady.
Winnie had just condensed a cloud of water and tried to feed it to Vere, but found that Vere did not seem to be following her, but walked straight over the statue and towards the mountain wall.
"What are you doing, Wiel?" Watching Weir probe his head in front of the mountain wall, Winnie tugged his ear. But Veel didn't react.
Suddenly, Wille stepped forward and walked straight towards the mountain wall, "Hey! There's a stone ahead! Winnie cried out, but Ver could not hear her.
I thought he would crash into the mountain wall, but contrary to Winnie's expectations, Ver actually blended directly into the mountain wall!
Winnie was dumbfounded, "Willy...... Will, Will! Winnie wanted to chase after her, but with a bang, she hit the mountain wall in a daze and fell to the ground. This, this can't be! Winnie flew up and down where Veir had disappeared, trying to find out why Veir had disappeared.
But after a while, I saw a head suddenly poke out of the mountain wall, and then the whole body flew out and fell to the ground, and a mouthful of blood sprayed in the air. Winnie found out that it was Veil, who had just entered.
Hurriedly flew to his side, "Weir, Weir, what's wrong with you?" What happened? You hear me? The man on the ground looked at her, and then fainted.
--- clean Wiel's wounds---
"Are you alright?" A soft call sounded in his ears, and Veel woke up.
"Where am I? Forehead ~ head hurts. When was this? ”
"It's night, and I'm dragging you back into the house. You're hurt......"
Ver sat up from the floor and rested one hand on a chair beside him. Rubbing his temples, the dizziness in his mind gradually disappeared, and he also remembered what happened before he fell unconscious.
"Winnie, are you alright? The spider didn't rush out, did it? ”
"Spiders? What are you talking about? ”
"I remember, there is a cave behind the statue, and the gentle slope up to the top of the valley is inside!"
"Caves? Gentle slope? Are you alright, Wiel, aren't you still in your head? It was said that mushrooms could not be eaten. ”
"There's really a cave out there, and you can get out of it! I saw it all...... However, there should still be a monster in there now. Thankfully, it didn't seem to dare to come out. ”
"Wiel, you...... Don't have a fever? How can you talk nonsense, there is no cave in the statue! You've been looking for so many days, if there is a cave you mentioned, how could we not find it. ”
Wiel struggled to stand up and said excitedly, "Really, it's really Winnie, there really is a cave there, and the gentle slope there can let me go up, don't believe it, you come with me." ”
As he spoke, he walked out quickly, ignoring Winnie's obstruction, and Winnie had no choice but to follow.
Torch in hand, Wiel illuminated the mountain walls, and the tough, steep rocks reflected the red glow of the flames in the darkness.
"Why is it gone? There's a hole here! I saw the way out! Veel kept tapping the stone with his hand. There was no sound but a rambling sound.
"...... Wiel" Winnie thought he was a little irritated by the fact that he had been trapped at the bottom of the valley for so long, that he lacked food, and that he had just accidentally eaten poisonous mushrooms. I want to persuade her, but I don't know how to comfort her. He said, "If you are a man, wipe away your tears and wait for death." ”? Obviously not.
"Calm down, Wille...... Let's look for more, maybe ......."
"It's really here, yes, yes, it's probably blocked by stones." Unaware of Winnie's concerns, Wiel took out a pickaxe and struck it on the mountain wall.
One until late at night, Wiel kept digging. Jingle, and then the sound of puff and gargle continued to sound until the sky was faintly bright.
"I remember that this is obviously the entrance of the cave, why is it all dirt? Hey? This is? Reel? "Weel had already dug very deep, and just as he was about to give up, one end of a scroll suddenly peeked out from a clod of earth near the ground.
Quickly planed twice, and carefully took out the scroll.
"Look, Winnie, this is the scroll I took out of the chest where the spider in the cave was looking."
Will remembered that the scroll that he had been holding in his hand when he was fleeing had suddenly escaped because of the spider's attack. It must have fallen near the entrance of the cave.
"There really is something, then it seems that you disappeared into the mountain wall, it turned out that it was not my hallucination!"
"I disappeared into the mountain wall?"
"Yes, after you ate the mushrooms, you went straight into the mountain wall, and after a while you flew out of the mountain wall, spat blood, and were injured. What's going on? ”
Putting down the pickaxe, fatigue set in, and Wer sat down on the ground and spoke to Winnie.
"So, this place can go up here?"
"I guess so, but right now, it's a solid layer of soil, and yesterday, I saw the cave. What the hell is going on? ”
“…… Will? …… Is that the mushroom problem? ”
“……! It's possible. Also, what is written in this scroll? "Gollum~
"The handwriting is illegible, I need to take a look, huh? What was that! ”
"I'm going to starve to death......" spent the night digging through the mountain wall. The mushrooms he had eaten had long since turned into residues in his stomach, and Will, who had relaxed his spirit, felt weak, his hands and feet were weak, and his stomach was like thunder, crying out for hunger.
"You have to think of a way, you can't sit still. I'm going to eat. ”
"But it's only mushrooms, poisonous! Do you still want to eat that mushroom? ”
"Even if you hallucinate, it's better than starving! And maybe I'll be able to see the cave again! ”
"No, even if you want to eat it again, you have to wait a few days and then talk about it when you recover, do I want to watch you be poisoned?" Winnie saw that Ver was about to move on to the poisonous mushroom, and hurriedly persuaded her.
"Yesterday I was too hungry to get it cooked, but today I got it done...... Cooked? Cooked?! Vere stood up and said to Winnie, "Yes! I can get it cooked! ”
"Is there a difference between raw and cooked poisonous mushrooms? Maybe it's even more poisonous! ”
"No, Winnie, I'm going to do something else. It doesn't necessarily work, but definitely give it a try, and if it works, we're saved! ”
Frowning slightly, Winnie sighed, "I'll trust you one more time." ”
"Winnie, I need your magic support." Having burned some charcoal and preparing the stones and branches, Winnie gently approached Wiel's side, "Take your hands out." ”
"Cooking pot." A burst of white light flashed, and a stone pot set up in the way of a field oven appeared in the clearing in front of him.
"Winnie, are you alright?" Winnie lay a little weakly on Will's arm, "It's okay, it's fine. But you're making so much for this, this cooking pot? ”
Winnie said weakly to Vere, "If I had known this was the case, I might as well have thrown a stone at it." ”
"This thing is different, you wait for me a moment." With that, he gently placed Winnie on the ground, and Ver brought the stacked mushrooms from the side. "Look, I'm going to make some food."
Take out a few mushrooms, think to yourself, "I should do this", open the lid of the pot, put the mushrooms in, and put the mushrooms in the four corners with ingenuity. Then he closed the lid and sat down next to Winnie.
Winnie's eyes widened weakly as she looked at Will, then at the stone pot in front of her, and asked tentatively with extreme suspicion.
"You're going to put some mushrooms in there?"
"Yes, that's it."
"Why don't you add some water?"
"No need to add water."
"What about fire? Isn't the charcoal underneath used to make a fire? Even if you want to dry roast, you have to light the fire, isn't it possible that you cook food in a pot and cover it? ”
"Trust me, that's it, it'll be fine in a while."
"How do you make me believe, unbelievable, okay?!" Winnie is going crazy.
"Don't be impatient, I'm different from the usual." Will said with a drool.
And so the two men waited for a long, long time, until Weiel's stomach crumbled again.
"I don't think so, Wiel. Then you might as well eat poisonous mushrooms, in every sense. ”
Winnie couldn't sit still, and she flew to the side of the stone pot with a little bit of effort, and touched it carefully, it was cold and biting! No, it was so cold that Winnie lifted the lid of the pot, and a few mushrooms lay quietly in the pot.
Looking at Wiel, who had walked to the pot and was deep in thought, Winnie sighed and flew weakly into the distance, thinking that she might find something to eat.
Ver pondered, "What's wrong?" Wiel touched the edge of the pot and suddenly saw 4 squares in his eyes. "I see!"
Vere suddenly screamed. "Oops!" Winnie stumbled and almost fell to the ground.
Gazing at the lattice in front of him, the image of a green mushroom head in "Mushroom" occupies a lattice. "That's right, that's right!"
Grab a few mushrooms from the ground, disappear while the mushrooms in your hand disappear, and the 4 squares in your field of vision slowly fill.
"Winnie, come here, we've got something to eat!." Wiel exclaimed excitedly, and Winnie turned her head, "Cook." ”
Both of them were distracted, "Bang! The lid of the stone pot closed itself, and with a snort, the small charcoal pile under the stone pot ignited a fire, obviously there was no water, but there were streams of steam rising from the cracks in the pot.
"This time it will definitely be done, and something will definitely be made."
"The stone pot is cooking itself?!" Gently covering her mouth, Winnie's eyes flashed with surprise.
After a while, everything was calm.
Two guys with curious and expectant eyes approached the stone cauldron, and as the lid of the cauldron opened, a glimmer of light shone into the inside of the cauldron.
The first thing Vel smelled was a warm fragrance, lingering in the heart, revealing the freshness of the herbs and the greenness of the vegetables.
Then what catches my eye is the alluring crimson color, like a girl in love looking back shyly, inside the stone pot, a pile of green, dark green vegetables half-crushed inside.
In the interval between the rising heat, there was a burst of tempting aromas.
"I want to eat ......," the color of stars appeared in both eyes.
Winnie glanced at Vere, "I didn't expect that I could actually make food." As he spoke, he couldn't wait to clip some between his fingers and put them in his mouth. Hmm, it's delicious. ”
I couldn't control it anymore, and the two people who hadn't eaten properly for a long time (Xing Ling) ate it.
Verse's mouth was full, and he chewed on the clatter, "Sure enough, you have to use a pot to make things." ”
