Chapter 196: Spirit Tea, Spirit Bamboo Shoots, and Tofu

This formation is somewhat similar to the method of grinding in the outside world. The grain to be processed is placed in a funnel-shaped container, suspended above the formation, and flows into the formation at a fixed speed. This grain also serves as a "switch" to activate the formation. As long as there is grain flowing into the formation, the formation will be activated and processing will begin, and you can also choose to dehull or crush it.

The processed formation is engraved in a piece of spiritual jade, and the spiritual energy as energy is also compressed and sealed in it. The efficiency of this formation processing is not high, Tian Xu estimates that the hulling processing per hour is 100 catties, and if you grind flour and the like, the efficiency will be even lower. However, the processing here is indeed delicate, and the aura consumed is very small, which can fully meet their needs.

Leaving the formation to automatically mill rice here, Tian Xu pulled the purple smoke to pick tea. Two months have passed since the first tea picking, and although the two tea trees are new, they can also be picked a second time.

This time, more tea was picked than last time. Tian Xu learned the lessons of the last tea making, improved the tea making process, and used a method similar to alchemy to make tea, and the tea aura obtained was more abundant and the taste was much better. This time, he got about half a catty of spiritual tea, and he still used a container made of space spiritual bamboo to hold it. This time, the bamboo tube is depicted with a formation, which can better lock the aura and aroma in the spiritual tea, prevent deterioration caused by long-term existence, and greatly improve the B grid of the tea.

When selecting bamboo to make bamboo tubes, Tian Xu found fresh bamboo shoots in the bamboo forest. Now it is the turn of summer and autumn in the space, and it is not the season to produce bamboo shoots, but after all, this space is different from the outside world, and there are bamboo shoots produced all year round. The bamboo shoots here are delicious, but they are not a panacea. Tian Xu and Ziyan dug out dozens of pieces and prepared to make dried bamboo shoots.

Fresh bamboo shoots are peeled off the old shell, cut into two pieces, the tender bamboo shoot clothes and bamboo shoot flesh are separated, then boiled in boiling water, pressed and drained of water, and the finished bamboo shoots become dried bamboo shoots. It takes a long time to dry bamboo shoots in the secular world, but here it was simplified by Tian Xu, and under the control of the aura, the water was quickly extracted to reach the right moisture content.

The bamboo shoots here are not elixir, Tian Xu is not satisfied with this, and when extracting water, he adopts a method similar to alchemy, and deliberately adds a part of the spiritual energy to it, so that these dried bamboo shoots have become worldly inferior elixirs, and the taste has become more delicious.

The taste of dried bamboo shoots is different from that of fresh bamboo shoots, and the taste difference is even greater, and it has basically become another food. Tian Xu is not too interested in fresh bamboo shoots, but he especially likes to eat dried bamboo shoots, especially when stewing meat, adding some dried bamboo shoots often becomes his favorite.

In addition to dried bamboo shoots, there are also some edible mushrooms and wild vegetables suitable for drying, and he also makes some. Including mushrooms, shiitake mushrooms, fungus, monkey mushrooms, pine mushrooms, hazel mushrooms, etc., as well as purslane, bracken, plum vegetables and so on, there are more than a dozen kinds of forests.

The original intention of people to make dried products of vegetables and edible mushrooms was to prolong the shelf life, but the inside of this medicine king bucket, as well as the Yin Yang Ding space that he would carry with him, had excellent preservation functions to preserve these foods. The varieties of dried products he makes are all made after drying to taste better, at least unlike fresh products, which is made entirely for the sake of deliciousness.

Recalling the last time he traded with Kitatang, Hou Guoqiang's love for the useless ginseng, Tian Xu couldn't help but be proud. He pulled the purple smoke around and dug up some beautiful elixirs, including Ganoderma lucidum, ginseng, snow lotus, safflower, cistanche and the like, ready to keep them and take them out to fool people.

Two days later, when I returned to the place where the flour grinding formation was located, all the rice had been shelled and the flour had been milled.

Ziyan suddenly said, "I want to eat soy products, especially tofu, will you make them?"

Tian Xu didn't expect Ziyan to want to eat this, and said, "I can do it, but I don't have anything to order tofu...... "I don't have brine or gypsum, so why don't I try it with sour paste?" but I haven't used it, so I don't know if I can order it." ”

Ziyan was very curious and asked, "What is sour pulp? I have only heard of tofu with brine, but I have never heard of gypsum can also order tofu, and I have never heard of sour pulp." ”

Tian Xu soaked the soybeans, and estimated that it would take at least a few hours before he could grind the tofu, so he took Ziyan to the surrounding mountains to take a look around to see if he could find something that could order tofu. His luck was good, his consciousness was released, and he found a small-scale gypsum mine in a cave at the foot of the mountain, and got a little gypsum out, which was convenient for some tofu.

A few hours later, the two returned to the place where they soaked the beans with the plaster they had obtained. The beans have already soaked, and they are chubby. Tian Xu put the beans into the hopper of the grinding formation, adjusted some details of the formation, and the beans slowly flowed into the formation, were pressed and broken, and turned into soybean milk mixed with residues, which flowed into a cauldron below.

On the other side, Tian Xu had already held a ball of raw gypsum in the air and forged it with Danhuo. The gypsum is dehydrated by heat and slowly turns into loose cooked plaster. Tian Xu crushed the burned plaster with aura, and it became a gray powder. Dissolve the plaster in water and prepare.

After the gypsum was made, the soy milk over there was also ground up. Tian Xu filtered out the tofu residue in the soy milk and made raw soy milk. After boiling on the heat, a strong aromatic smell of soy milk has already spread.

Purple smoke wrinkled her cute little nose and said, "It's so fragrant!"

Tian Xu poured out a bowl of soy milk, handed it to Ziyan and said, "Drink a bowl first." The soy milk was very hot, Ziyan was a little anxious, and said to Tian Xu: "Stinky Tian Xu, don't you help me cool it down, how can you drink it so hot?"

Cooling a bowl of soy milk quickly is nothing at all for Tian Xu, who has Danhuo. He was unlucky, and in a blink of an eye, the soy milk had reached a mild and palatable temperature, handed it to Ziyan and said, "Little gluttonous cat, drink it." By the way, do you want to eat tofu skin?"

Ziyan hadn't thought about the tofu skin, but when Tian Xu mentioned it at this time, he reacted: "The tofu skin is delicious, help me make some." ”

Tian Xu used his aura to push the air around him, forming a light breeze that blew towards the surface of the soy milk. The wind carried away the heat and moisture, and a thick layer of tofu skin quickly formed on the fast-acting surface, which was gently picked up by Tian Xu with a long rod and taken out. His Danhuo carefully maintained the temperature of the soy milk, picked out three tofu skins one after another, and then stopped, if he picked more, the tofu would not be easy to form.
