38 Oil refining
After some boiling, the remaining maltose-like crystalline substance in the pot was still as full as a soup pot, and Ku Ding divided the remaining part into two, and the small part was put into a beautiful little jar, with a delicate little spoon, it seemed to become a delicious snack.
Putting aside the jar like a small gift, Ku Ding's face looked a little haggard, as if he was seriously ill. When he turned around, he stumbled under his feet, and he only stood up after holding on to the cauldron, and his eyes were bloodshot, and even the hand holding the edge of the pot twitched a few times involuntarily, as if it was uncontrollable.
"I'm Cuding!"
No one understood what he meant by saying this suddenly. However, the next moment, he fell into the pot and opened his mouth to swallow the remaining half of the "maltose", not only did he have no posture, but he didn't look like a normal person eating at all.
After licking the cauldron without a trace of residue, Ku Ding stood up from the cauldron with red eyes, although he had gradually returned to normal at the moment of standing up, but for a moment, Cu Ding's resolute face showed a fierce hideousness.
"Demons!"
Kuding's voice was as fierce as that of a wild beast staring at its prey.
He closed his eyes, adjusted his breathing, and then opened them again, and they were clear and deep, as if nothing had happened before.
"Is Miss Qiao awake?"
There was no one next to him, but he just asked around like this, and after a few seconds, he seemed to get a negative answer, and Ku Ding nodded.
"Don't wait for her, let's refine the oil first, I remember that there doesn't seem to be much heavy oil left in the kitchen."
Glancing at the corpse he had put aside earlier, Ku Ding hesitated for a moment, but still put the corpse in the cauldron.
In the basement of the hotel, Ku Ding noticed that the body was somewhat ...... How to put it, anomalous. When an ordinary ghost is possessed by a person, at most, it is to control the body at the same time, and slightly use its own strength to make some illusions on the appearance of the corpse, so as to facilitate its own actions.
But this corpse is different, a small horn the size of a fingernail has grown on the top of his forehead, this corpse is no longer human, maybe in a little time, he may become a ghost corpse, or even a powerful ghost thing.
Ku Ding couldn't see the specific reason from the corpse, so he could only guess.
The ghost that has been partially transformed into the stomach of Ku Ding should have been catalyzed by external forces, and some traces of being boosted by pulling seedlings, and when the external force was changing and strengthening this ghost, part of the ghost qi yin force was absorbed by the corpse, and after a period of cultivation, it contributed to the change of the corpse.
"Although it looks no different from a human corpse, and I haven't tried to use a human corpse to refine oil, but if I really want to do this, I feel a little disobedient, and I can't do it."
After hesitating for a long time, Ku Ding turned the cauldron.
"I didn't find your soul in the corpse, maybe it was devoured by those ghosts, or escaped reincarnation, anyway, I killed this ghost, it's a pity that your ghostly body was incinerated, even if it's a part of my gratitude for avenging you."
"If you don't answer, I'll take you by default."
As the cauldron turned, a flame of no open flame rose, although a violent heat wave could be felt, but not a trace of flame could be seen, and the clothes on the ghost corpse were instantly burned into ashes, and the ashes were also swallowed by the bottom of the pot with the rotation of the cauldron, revealing the overall appearance of the corpse.
Lost the power of the ghost possession, and was burned by this open fire, as if the texture covered in the exterior was destroyed, this corpse revealed the changed appearance, the black skin is a layer of black hair, ghost feet and claws, grimace and sharp teeth, extremely ugly, people look at a kind of disgust.
As the temperature got higher and higher, the layer of black hair on the outside of the ghost corpse turned into black gas, and the entire body began to shrink, and some droplet-like black oil droplets were roasted out from the inside, but they did not burn in an unknown fire, but only hung on the surface of the ghost corpse.
Ku Ding was not in a hurry to collect these ghost oils, although this ghost oil had many functions, but this state could not be used for cooking, and it was obviously not what Ku Ding wanted.
He took out the remaining golden silk yellow paper, took out four sheets and pasted them around the cauldron in four directions, the four yellow pieces of paper were not written in the dark, but simply drew the scenery of the four seasons, and I don't know what the effect is.
However, as the four pieces of yellow paper were pasted, the stars that had emerged from the abyss in the pot were pressed back, but the mountains and rivers under the cauldron reacted, and countless silk-like colorful lines stretched out to wrap the ghost corpse.
Although I couldn't see the state of the ghost's corpse, I could hear the crackling sound of cooked oil.
"Cangling, Bai Mao is angry, Chang Win, Kuke to remove the slag, the five flavors are introduced, the three freshness are lowered, and the cycle is repeated, so as to produce deliciousness, four forces together, and oil out."
The four yellow pieces of paper gave birth to four kinds of power, which diffused into the pot, accompanied by those colorful silk threads, and became a pot of clouds, like the water vapor that had just come out of the pot, full of layers.
Ku Ding gently blew off the layer of water vapor, revealing the bottom of the pot, the ghost corpse had disappeared without a trace, only the bottom of the pot was a layer of golden grease, and the other ingredients seemed to be stripped by this cauldron, obviously this cauldron was an artifact.
Pouring the refined oil into a pottery oil bottle, Ku Ding finished today's business, and it was already late at night.
"Ningmon."
"Here we are."
With a shout from Ku Ding, Ning Meng walked in from outside, and it seemed that he had not left too far, just waiting outside.
"I don't have your share this time, make up for it next time, and put the oil in the back kitchen on the way back to sleep."
"Hmm."
Unexpectedly, Ning Meng didn't mumble, he glanced at the exquisite jar in Ku Ding's other hand, and instantly guessed that the share that originally belonged to him was now the young lady Qiao Rourou.
"Sir, why don't you give it to Miss Shao?"
"Want to steal it?"
"No, no, how could I steal Miss Shao's things."
As if his thoughts had been broken, Ning Meng laughed and picked up the oil can and slipped away, but was grabbed by Ku Ding.
"I'll make it up to you next time, guaranteed!"
Ku Ding didn't know what was wrong, so he gave Ning Meng an explanation, but Ning Meng was like seeing a ghost, no, it was more exaggerated than seeing a ghost.
"First...... Sir, I'm really fine, don't make it up, don't make it up. ”
“……”
Looking at Ning Meng's exaggerated expression, Ku Ding was stunned.
Ning Meng hurriedly explained: "Sir, you still treat me like before, you suddenly treat me better, I'm a little afraid." ”
