Chapter 624: Erha and Roasted Sweet Potatoes

While waiting for the sweet potatoes to be baked, Huo Chi asked Lin Erha about their crossing of the sea.

Lin Erha said: "I encountered some monsters, but we came with the White Eagle's fleet, and the journey was quite stable." ”

"Those monsters are not powerful, in the narrow route from the main continent to the subcontinent, it is rare to encounter powerful monsters, and ordinary cruiser formations can pass smoothly. Lin Xue'er raised her head and said, "It's just that all I eat every day is fish, and I feel sick to my stomach when I see fish now." ”

"Oh, speaking of nausea. Huo Chi glanced at Lin Xue'er and said, "I'll get you something else to eat, eating baked sweet potatoes on an empty stomach still has a certain chance of causing stomach reflux." Huo Chi said as he stood up, ready to pretend to bring them some other salty food.

Lin Erha immediately said, "No, we bring food." He took out a few pieces of dry bread and said, "Are these okay?"

"Okay. Huo Chi nodded and said, "You eat some first, and the sweet potatoes should be almost the same in a while." Huo Chi said as he picked up a branch and poked it slightly at the place where the sweet potato was buried, the feeling of the soil had become a little loose, and the sweet potato was indeed almost there.

"I heard that the Takamaru you were riding on encountered a thousand-level monster?" Lin Erha asked.

"Yes, giant squid, and there are many. Huo Chi said: "It's also very strange to say, the Takamaru went to rescue the Elk that was attacked by pirates, and suddenly a large number of giant squid appeared, and the Elk almost sank, which is really strange." ”

"Giant squid has never been seen in that area. Lin Erha said: "This thing is indeed very strange. ”

"Is it okay to bake sweet potatoes?" Lin Xue'er suddenly interjected: "Brother, you are really, always asking what you are doing with these, I think I can smell the sweet potatoes, don't say it, let's eat." ”

Lin Erha scratched his ears embarrassedly when he heard this, while Huo Chi carefully brushed away the embers. Now you should be a little careful when digging the pit and putting the soil on it, don't use too much force, otherwise it will be easy to dig up the sweet potatoes with a shovel.

After Huo Chi dug up the loose soil, the roasted sweet potatoes with some charred surface were exposed, and the sweet smell of roasted sweet potatoes was completely emitted in the air before they could be taken out.

"It smells so good. Lin Erha drooled and said, "It's been a long time since I've eaten this kind of roasted sweet potato, I'm really nostalgic." ”

"Come, take it. Huo Chi threw a roasted white potato to Lin Erha.

He took it and immediately threw it on the ground: "It's hot, it's hot!"

"Haha!" Lin Xue'er looked at her brother's embarrassed appearance and said very happily: "Brother, you used to be like this, you were always burned." ”

"Aren't you too?" Lin Erha said angrily: "I don't know who stuffed the sweet potato into his mouth, and then scalded his tongue out for a long time." ”

"Brother!" Lin Xue'er heard Lin Erha say this about her old bottom, and immediately said angrily: "That's not it, brother, you eat too delicious!"

"Sanha, this piece is yours. Huo Chi handed another piece of roasted sweet potato to Lin Xue'er.

"Who is Sanha?!" Lin Xue'er was speechless for a while, but the aroma of the sweet potato made it difficult for her to control herself, she still took the sweet potato spinelessly, and then carefully tore the skin.

"Wellβ€”that's what it tastes like. Lin Xue'er took one end of the sweet potato, peeled off most of the skin, and gnawed it contentedly.

Huo Chi watched Lin Xue'er tear the skin very skillfully, knowing that she must have eaten baked sweet potatoes before.

"Huo Chi, you eat together. Lin Erha stuffed the sweet potato into his mouth, smacked his lips very enjoyingly, and said, "It's so sweet, it's just right, Huo Chi, your craftsmanship is really good." ”

Although baked sweet potatoes are not particularly superb skills, Huo Chi is still a little embarrassed to be praised like this.

He hurriedly picked up a piece of sweet potato, and several pieces of the skin of the sweet potato had become black, and when he touched it with his hand, he would find that the blackened places were a little hard.

Gently tear the surface of the sweet potato with your hands, and the flesh of the sweet potato inside the black skin pulls out a slender and transparent stranded sugar, which is evidence that the sweet potato is well roasted.

When you take a bite, the steaming sweet potato meat is sweet and soft, because the roasting time is relatively long, the meat on the outside of the sweet potato has been slightly dry, but this part of the meat tastes sweeter than honey.

It's been a long time since I've eaten a roasted sweet potato like this, and by the moonlight, this sweet potato that is constantly steaming is sprinkled with a faint layer of moonlight.

Roasted sweet potatoes aren't a unique delicacy, but they are often filled with fond memories.

Huo Chi and Lin Erha, brother and sister, chatted while eating roasted sweet potatoes, until the sweet potatoes were eaten up and the moon rose high, and they parted and said goodbye.

Watching Huo Chi return to the room, Lin Erha got back into the car, and Lin Xueer sat in the co-pilot, after the car started and drove out of the camp.

Lin Xue'er said in a low voice: "Brother, it's really the same as you said, Huo Chi really feels very similar to his father." ”

"yes, I'll just say he's alike. Lin Erha said: "Sweet potatoes have actually been extinct in the subcontinent for twenty or thirty years, and now even in the main continent, it is not a very common crop, it is said that there should be few people who can bake sweet potatoes like this, but Huo Chi actually can." ”

"Yes, I thought only my father could, but I didn't expect him to do it too, and the method used was exactly the same. Lin Xue'er said: "The taste after roasting is similar, if it weren't for his wrong age, I really want to wonder who he is." ”

Lin Xue'er said here and suddenly covered her head: "Brother, why do you say we can't remember what our father looks like?"

"It's not very clear at the moment. Lin Erha held the steering wheel with both hands and looked ahead, and the Columbia District looked like a different charm at night.

"Why don't we remember, it's clear that my father hasn't been away for long. Lin Xue'er seemed to be in great pain.

"Maybe it's the problem of the degeneration of subhumans, recently I communicated with other subhumans and found that it is not only a problem of memory, but also a problem of the mind, and some subhumans also have problems with their consciousness, alas!" Lin Erha replied with a heartache.

"Hasn't the White Eagle Research Institute found a solution to this matter yet?" asked Lin Xue'er.

"Well, it doesn't seem like a way to stop the degradation, though. Lin Erha said: "There are some new rumors in Lin Bao's laboratory. ”

"What are the rumors?" asked Lin Xue'er.

"It is said that there is a new development in the first generation of clones, and the agents that are effective against the clones seem to be helpful in reactivating the biological activity of subhumans. Lin Erha said: "Of course, this is just a rumor, and I haven't fully figured out the authenticity of the clues." ”
