Zhu Yuanyuan said she wanted to collect herbs, so she set out the next day with a bamboo basket on her back. She walked around the area first, roughly figured out the route, and then headed straight for the cliff where ginseng was likely to grow.
In her previous life, she was a little afraid of heights. After traveling to the beast world, she learned to climb trees, which cured her.
Probably because so few people came, there were unexpectedly many herbs growing in the forest. Zhu Yuanyuan found several commonly used herbs without even looking carefully, and her mood instantly brightened.
As long as the medicine can be found here, it doesn't matter even if the quantity is small. She can buy more in the system mall.
She was the only one who came out to collect herbs, so it was easy for her to use some tricks.
Wolfberry, safflower, jujube kernel, fig, Luo Han Guo...
These are all good things, especially wolfberry. Add some when making soup, it is beautiful and nutritious.
Before reaching the edge of the cliff, the bamboo baskets and baskets were filled to the brim.
It happened to be lunch time, and the harvest was quite abundant. Zhu Yuanyuan decided to go back and process the picked herbs first, and take the ones that could be dried to a place outside the forest where they could be exposed to the sun.
But the problem comes again. Drying medicinal materials on the ground is not only easy to get dirty, but also difficult to collect. You need to find some suitable drying tools.
Fortunately, there were many trees in the forest, including giant leaf trees, with leaves one meter long and half a meter wide. Zhu Yuanyuan quickly climbed up the tree and picked a dozen leaves, washed them and dried them by the river, and the problem was solved.
As soon as he came out of the forest, Zhu Fei, who was wandering around on the beach in his animal form, excitedly waved his hooves, "Hmph~ Yuanyuan is back, come on, the tide is about to rise."
Zhu Yuanyuan frowned, "I have to deal with medicinal materials, so I don't have time."
She looked around for a suitable place to dry out, and after leaving the forest, she stood on the flat ground on the beach.
"How do you want to dry it? Let me help you~" Zhu Fei ran over and almost knocked over someone holding a big leaf.
Zhu Yuanyuan, who struggled to avoid it, howled angrily, "Stay away from me!"
Zhu Fei kicked his hooves uneasily and said helplessly, "That, I didn't mean it~"
"I know," Zhu Yuanyuan said calmly, "You did it on purpose, but you didn't know which form you would use?"
Zhu Fei glared, "Hmph, it's unfair~"
"Get out of the way, don't block my work," Zhu Yuanyuan started to drive people away, no, it was pigs. "You are so embarrassed to offer help, but don't damage my medicinal materials."
The despised Zhu Fei almost shed tears. At this moment, Zhu Qiang's shouts came from not far away.
"Ah Fei, go and move the sea water quickly, don't disturb Yuanyuan's work."
"Coming, coming," Zhu Fei responded with a loud groan, turned around and ran away, fearing that he would be punished for running too slowly.
Uncle Qiang is a black-hearted person who will teach others a lesson when he gets the chance and never shows mercy.
As for rushing to the sea, there is no rush. They still have to stay at the beach for nearly a month, so there is plenty of time to waste.
Zhu Fei came and left as fast as a gust of wind. He even said, "I will come back again!"
Zhu Yuanyuan: Inexplicably familiar.jpg
Before she could think of anything, Shiraishi appeared out of nowhere and said, "Good harvest today?"
Although it is a question, it has an affirmative tone.
Zhu Yuanyuan nodded, "Yes, the medicinal materials here are rich and they look good. I really came to the right place."
"Well," Shiraishi demanded shamelessly, "I suggested this. If it works, do you have to thank me?"
Zhu Yuanyuan was confused. People say they show kindness without expecting anything in return. Why would someone ask for it directly?
After hesitating for a few seconds, she saluted decisively, "Thank you, Brother Shi!"
"That's it?" Bai Shi was stunned.
Zhu Yuanyuan asked, "Otherwise?"
"Teach me how to cook seafood someday when you have time," Shiraishi said. "You tell me in advance and I will take advantage of the low tide to pick up the seafood."
It's just a lesson in how to cook seafood. It's not a big deal if you prepare your own ingredients. Zhu Yuanyuan nodded, "Okay."
"Okay, you're busy, I'll leave first," Baishi said and left, quickly disappearing.
Zhu Fei, who was passing by with several buckets of sea water on his back, felt aggrieved. He kept moaning and groaning, and his eyes were full of resentment, which made people's skin crawl.
"Why are you back again?" Zhu Yuanyuan frowned.
Before Zhu Fei could speak, Zhu Qiang, who was not far away, shouted with a loud voice, "Zhu Fei, what's wrong with you? I asked you to carry water. I didn't let you run around and break your legs if you run again!" "
"Wait, I just went the wrong way," Zhu Fei yelled in a hurry, "Come here."
Zhu Yuanyuan couldn't help but laugh. There was no bend or wall. How did he go the wrong way?
Forget it, for the sake of being a foodie, she won't complain in public.
Alas, Brother Fat is getting more and more out of tune.
After drying the freshly picked herbs, I looked up towards the sea and saw that the tide was low. The beach was full of lively seafood, which made people’s scalp numb.
The old, the weak, the sick, and the disabled are the ones I’m talking about.
Zhu Yuanyuan was melancholy alone for a few seconds, then quickly cheered up and rushed to the beach with the empty bamboo basket, specifically picking clams, shrimps, abalone and other delicious things.
In the previous life, I wanted to eat but was reluctant to buy it. In this life, I must eat enough.
By the way, kelp and pork ribs soup tastes good too. She needs to pick up some kelp and dry it while it's not raining. It's convenient and worry-free to take it back.
Zhu Yuanyuan originally wanted to pick up some and take it home to make soup. It must be fresh, sweet and delicious.
Unexpectedly, the more I picked it up, the more excited I became. I almost forgot my original intention before I came back to my senses and secretly glanced at the pocket watch.
Good guy, it's past one in the afternoon, no wonder I'm a little hungry.
Zhu Yuanyuan immediately packed up her things and returned to the cave. Unsurprisingly, she saw two orcs grilling meat. She smiled and raised her hand to say hello, "Where's the barbecue? It's delicious."
The slightly younger orc Zhu Liang said with a smile, "Yuanyuan is back, the meat needs to be roasted for a while before it is cooked."
"Yeah," Zhu Yuanyuan raised the big bamboo basket in her hand, "I picked up some seafood to make soup."
She first straightened and cleaned the stone pot that was turned upside down, added a broken pot into it, and then went to the river to clean and blanch the seafood she picked up.
Empty the blanched seafood into the pot, add half of the pot of water, cover with a wooden lid and wait for the water to boil.
"Yuanyuan," Zhu Liang shook his head and sighed, "It takes a long time to cook the soup, but you can actually leave it to the evening."
"I'm not in a hurry," Zhu Yuanyuan looked at the barbecue on the fire, "It's a pity that my skills are not very good."
No matter what, eat some barbecue and drink some seafood soup, and your belly will be filled in no time.
Zhu Yuanyuan took a short rest and then set off again. She walked towards the cliff again, collecting herbs as she walked. When she reached the bottom of the cliff, she suddenly found a few strange red fruits, and her nose also smelled a rich and sweet message.
"What kind of fruit is this?" Zhu Yuanyuan asked Tongzi for help.
Tongzi didn't answer for a long time, and after a long time he answered, "It's the Beast Yuan Fruit, which helps with cultivation."
Zhu Yuanyuan was shocked, "Is there such a magical fruit?"
"Of course," Tongzi snorted, "Hosts are really rare and strange!"
Zhu Yuanyuan was not angry after being scolded, and strode off to pick fruits. Good things must be put into her pocket.
