Chapter Forty-Eight: Snacks Are Stolen
"Boy, go on!"
Elder Qi threw the bamboo slip in front of Liu Xiaoxu.
Liu Xiaoxu hurriedly took it and unfolded it to take a look, and sure enough, it recorded the production method and steps of the quenching elixir, which was full of pictures and texts, and was very detailed.
Liu Xiaoxu was overjoyed and hurriedly thanked him.
Elder Qi snorted coldly twice, and said without hesitation: "Don't be busy thanking me first, the refining method of this quenching spirit pill is not easy, and it depends on personal talent and understanding. Even if someone teaches you by hand, you may not be able to learn it. Don't get too happy. ”
Liu Xiaoxu was full of confidence: "Don't worry! Kung Fu is not afraid of people with a heart, I will definitely be able to learn it!"
Elder Qi sneered twice, said no more, and turned to leave.
Watching Elder Qi go away, Liu Xiaoxu looked at He Zhixing and said with a hippie smile: "Senior Brother He, in the next few days, I'm afraid I'm going to bother you." ”
He Zhixing also smiled: "Each other, senior brother, my talent for cooking is too poor, don't dislike it when the time comes." ”
The two looked at each other and laughed at the same time.
After that, Liu Xiaoxu discussed with He Zhixing about when He Zhixing would come to pick up Liu Xiaoxu in the next few days. After all, Liu Xiaoxu can't fly in the sky yet.
After setting a time, Liu Xiaoxu stopped staying and took the initiative to resign.
When He Zhixing sent him back to Yuhui Peak, the sun had already set, and after the two said goodbye, He Zhixing left.
Liu Xiaoxu hurriedly ran back to his room, opened the bamboo slip that recorded the Quenching Pill Danfang, and observed it carefully.
After watching it for a while, he gave up.
On this bamboo slip, although the refining method of the quenching elixir is recorded in detail.
But alchemy is far more complicated than he imagined. Not only do you need to master the art of fire control and smelting, but you also need to have an alchemy furnace.
Where does he have any alchemy furnace now?
After a tiring day in Danfeng, he felt a little hungry, so Liu Xiaoxu wanted to eat some food to cushion his stomach.
If it was late today, he was too lazy to go back to Feng's room, but fortunately, there were a lot of snacks stored in the house.
These snacks were originally made by him for Xiao Jingfeng's young sisters, but now that Xiao Jingfeng can't go, these snacks have been put on hold. Fortunately, most of the snacks are foods such as candied fruits and preserved fruits, which can be stored for a long time. In order to prevent the little squirrel from stealing food, he hid it in a clay pot.
Liu Xiaoxu came to a row of crockpots and prepared to eat a few candied fruits to cushion his stomach.
He vaguely remembered that the snacks were stored in the crockpot in the middle, Liu Xiaoxu opened the mouth of the crockpot, put his hand in it, and then fumbled for it......
But after touching it for a long time, I didn't touch anything!
"Huh? Am I mistaken? Not this crockpot?"
Liu Xiaoxu scratched his head, took the crockpot next to him in front of him, and put his hand in......
This time I finally touched it!
He touched a loneliness!
"It's really evil!" Liu Xiaoxu didn't believe in evil, so he simply touched the row of crockpots in front of him, but without exception, all the crockpots were empty.
"There is a thief in the house!" Liu Xiaoxu's face changed greatly.
But this Yuhui Feng, counting him, there are only three people in total, except for him, that is, the senior brother and the second senior brother, the two senior brothers have no reason to come to his room to steal snacks, if they really want to, as long as they open their mouths, it is impossible for him not to give them.
So who could this thief be?
Liu Xiaoxu touched his chin and frowned and thought about it.
Suddenly, his heart moved. The minimap shows that the baby squirrel is hiding a short distance to the northeast.
Liu Xiaoxu turned his head sharply and looked towards the little squirrel's hiding place. Sure enough, I found that the little squirrel was hiding in a haystack not far away, and the thief looked this way.
As if he didn't expect Liu Xiaoxu to spot it at a glance, the little squirrel swooped and shrank his little head into the grass.
Seeing the little squirrel's reaction, Liu Xiaoxu instantly understood.
The snack must have been stolen by a little squirrel!
"Damn, the master dares to steal snacks, he doesn't learn well at a young age, and he pays it back when he grows up!
There was no movement in the haystack, and suddenly a wind blew, rolling a few fallen leaves on the ground, and the haystack also swayed a few times under the wind, and then fell silent.
Everything was so peaceful and natural.
If Liu Xiaoxu hadn't had a system, he would have mistakenly thought that what he saw just now was an illusion.
"Hide! Hide from your sister! You just dig underground, and the master can dig three feet into the ground to pull you out!"
Liu Xiaoxu scolded and came to the haystack, and pulled the haystack to both sides, and the little squirrel was exposed.
Picking up the little squirrel's little tail, Liu Xiaoxu lifted it up in front of him, glared at it and said, "Say, did you steal the snacks?"
"Squeak squeak!" the little squirrel hung upside down in the air, squeaking and squeaking, and its two little paws kept gesturing.
"Are you saying that I blamed you? You didn't steal the snacks?" Liu Xiaoxu understood what it was trying to say.
"Squeak!" the little squirrel nodded busily.
"You didn't steal it, the snack will fly away with its own long legs?" Are you stupid for me?" Liu Xiaoxu pointed to his nose, put his face in front of it, and said inwardly: "Do you know what is called a head cantilever cone thorn strand? If you don't tell me the truth, I will let you experience the sour taste of a head cantilever cone thorn tonight!"
"Squeak squeak!" When the little squirrel heard this, he couldn't help but be anxious, and hurriedly admitted it.
Liu Xiaoxu didn't mean to let it go, stared at him, and asked unrelentingly: "What did you do earlier? Why didn't you admit it just now? Now you know that you're afraid?"
The little squirrel's two little eye bones twirled for a while, and the two little paws began to dance like windmills again.
That seems to be saying, "Brother, the reason why I didn't admit it just now was because you didn't use the right words, and I didn't call it stealing, but kindly helped you deal with snacks that are about to spoil and expire." ”
Liu Xiaoxu grinned, revealing a mouthful of small white teeth: "So, I should thank you, right?"
The little squirrel blinked his eyes twice, and his little paws danced a few times, which seemed to say: "Don't thank me, this mouse does good deeds without leaving a name, you just need to make me a stir-fried pig intestine and comfort my young and fragile heart." ”
Liu Xiaoxu gasped, tilted his head to look at it, pinched his teeth and said: "No, I can't bear it anymore, I decided not to inflict a head cantilever on you, this punishment is too cheap for you, I have to let you experience the ten tortures of the Manchu Dynasty, otherwise I will be sorry for you fat and guts!"
After that, Liu Xiaoxu carried it back to the house, found a kitchen knife, and chopped it the wooden table next to him.
With a thud on the ground, a sharp kitchen knife slashed into the wooden table, splashing a few pieces of sawdust.
"Squeak squeak!" Seeing this, the little squirrel was so frightened that his fur exploded and squeaked loudly.
"What else do you have to say?" Liu Xiaoxu lifted the kitchen knife from the table, and the cold blade stroked the snow-white fur of the little squirrel.
"Squeak squeak!" the little squirrel was too frightened to move, squeaked twice, and with a few tears in his little eyes, he danced his little paws pitifully twice.
After Liu Xiaoxu saw it, he couldn't help but be stunned: "You mean, you didn't eat these snacks secretly, and you brought them to Xiao Jingfeng's young ladies?"
The little squirrel nodded his head twice aggrievedly.
Liu Xiaoxu glared at it and said, "If the Venerable Master Qingnian knew about this, he would definitely blame me, thinking that I instructed you to do this!
The little squirrel hurriedly waved its little paws again, squeaking, which seemed to say: "You have been patronizing your cultivation in the past few days, and you haven't cooked anything for me, I'm hungry, of course, I can only go back to my old business and go to Xiaojing Peak to steal the spirit fruit." Fortunately, Xiao Jingfeng's young ladies were kind-hearted, and after seeing me, they not only invited me to eat Lingxi fruit, but also kept touching me and giving this mouse a full body massage. The young ladies were so enthusiastic, and Ben Rat also learned that Entu Bao was not, so he gave them the snacks you hid in the crockpot. Anyway, your snacks will spoil after a long time, so it's better to let this rat take it and give it away. ”
"Fart! those snacks will last for at least a few months!" Liu Xiaoxu said angrily.
The little squirrel's neck shrunk and made an aggrieved appearance.
Seeing this, Liu Xiaoxu couldn't bear to scare it anymore, after all, he had promised to make food for the little squirrel every day, but in the past few days, he patronized his cultivation and really snubbed it.
It's really not good to be too harsh on yourself for breaking your word.
"Forget it, I have a lot of adults, so I don't care about you. For your pitiful sake, you can follow me to Danfeng tomorrow, and I'll go there and make you something to eat." ”
"Squeak?"
"Why?
"Squeak squeak!"
In the hut, the sound of a person and a mouse communicating came from time to time, and there was candlelight in the room through the window, shining in the cold night, adding a bit of warm taste.
