At night, Sun Kang, Liu Yu, and Liang Zheng took turns to keep vigil. When it was Liu Yu's turn, it was already late at night. The surroundings were dark, and the roars of beasts in the mountains continued. A silver moon was surrounded by stars in the sky above. People are deeply drunk.
Liu Yu threw firewood into the bonfire from time to time, and the bonfire made a "pop, pop" sound, and the flames were swaying in all directions with the cold wind blowing in the mountains. Liu Yu was wearing a "Sky Eagle Ink Dye Robe", and her whole body was filled with warmth. Not without feeling the chill.
In the early morning, everyone came to the stream to wash themselves. The stream was not big but the water was very fast and crystal clear. Liu Yuqi held the cold stream water and rinsed his dry cheeks. Then he took out a silk scarf to wipe away the water drops. The cold stream water was very refreshing.
Liu Yu then took out a clear jade bottle from the storage bag, poured out a mouthful of "jade mouthwash" and put it in his mouth. After repeated stirring, he spit it into the stream, and then took a few more mouthfuls of clean stream water. The bitter taste on his tongue was gone. Become refreshed.
"Jade Mouth Gargle" is a very popular spiritual liquid, which is made from jasmine flowers, mint leaves, sea salt, first-grade spiritual water, etc. A bottle is sold for ten low-level spiritual stones.
"Brother, the porridge is almost ready!" He Anqing squatted beside the bonfire and asked, looking at the steaming pot on the bonfire.
"The heat isn't up yet, just wait a moment." Sun Kang took out some salt and sprinkled it into the pot, stirring it with a jade spoon as he replied.
"Okay!" He Anqing sighed.
He stared straight at the churning red date and lily porridge in the pot, like a greedy cat, barely licking his tongue.
A quarter of an hour later, Sun Kang spooned a spoonful of hot porridge into the bowl, handed it to He Anqing, who had been watching, and said, "Come and taste the saltiness!"
He Anqing hurriedly took the blue and white jade bowl, blew on it and took a big sip. His tongue was so hot that he stuck out his tongue. After he recovered, he praised: "Senior Brother Sun, it tastes so good!"
"Sister Lan, Brother Liang, come over and drink porridge. The tent will be closed later." He Anqing shouted while holding a bowl.
"Thank you, senior brother!" Liu Yu said as he took the bowl of hot porridge handed over by Sun Kang.
Sun Kang served everyone a bowl of red date and lily porridge. The five of them sat down around an iron pot and began to enjoy the hot red date and lily porridge.
The porridge is cooked just right, neither thick nor thin. The porridge soup is crystal clear and red. The porridge surface is floating with huge red dates and snow-white lily slices. It is very eye-catching. The taste is sweet and moist, fragrant and delicious, and it dispels the whole body. of coldness.
"Senior Brother Sun, it's great to follow you into the mountains. It was so hard to follow someone before!" He Anqing filled another bowl and glanced at Liang Zheng beside him and said with dissatisfaction.
Liang Zheng held up the jade bowl in his hand, drank the porridge in the bowl, pretended not to hear, and stood up to serve another bowl.
"I just know how to eat!" He Anqing glared at Liang Zheng and cursed.
"Qing'er, from now on I will learn from Senior Brother Sun, that's all right!" Liang Zheng said with a wry smile.
"That's pretty much it!" He Anqing snorted, then licked his lips and asked, "Senior Brother Sun, is that eagle down there okay?"
"That's fine, take it out now and enjoy it with hot porridge. It can also relieve the greasiness!" Sun Kang chuckled when he saw He Anqing's impatient look.
Sun Kang first took away the pot on the shelf, removed the nearly extinguished charcoal fire, took out a dagger to dig up the scorched earth, took out a bag of "hard mud", and carefully smashed it. When he held it, a lotus fragrance spread out, revealing The tender eagle meat inside.
He Anqing saw Liu Yu looking at her and smiled awkwardly.
Sun Kang peeled off the burnt lotus leaves, took out the whole mountain eagle, placed it on the prepared plate, and used chopsticks to open the eagle's belly.
Suddenly there was a burst of heat, and a thick aroma filled the air. It turned out that Sun Kang had stuffed a ball of spiritual rice into the eagle's belly. At this time, the hot aroma was emitting. The rice grains inhaled the oil, and each grain was crystal clear. Bright yellow in color and extremely attractive.
"Thank you, senior brother!" Fang Lanlan said after taking the bowl handed over by Sun Kang. The bowl contained a plump eagle leg and most of the "eagle oil rice".
"Senior Brother Sun, leave some for me." He Anqing handed the bowl to Sun Kang and said pitifully with a pout.
There wasn't much rice wrapped in the eagle's belly, so the rest was given to He Anqing. Sun Kang took off another eagle leg and put it into the bowl. He Anqing quickly took the jade bowl and took a bite of "Eagle Oil Rice" , kept talking about Sun Kang's good deeds.
How big can a mountain eagle be? Liu Yu only got a small piece of meat and the eagle head connected to its neck. After a night of roasting, the eagle meat was tender and smooth, with a fragrance of lotus leaves. It was indeed very delicious. tasty. Liu Yu thought that he would catch a few more mountain eagles at night, and he also wanted to taste the "eagle oil rice".
The five people hurriedly traveled for six days through the winding and rocky Black and White Mountains.
At noon, they arrived at the mountainside of a high mountain. A green pear tree with abundant fruits appeared in front of the five people. Green pear fruits as big as fists exuded fruity fragrance and were covered with branches. Many drops fell from the grass on the ground. Less overripe fruit.
"We are not late, this fruit has just matured." He Anqing said happily.
"Junior sister, it's exactly what you said." Sun Kang picked up a fruit on the ground, looked at the fresh fruit handle and said excitedly.
"Now I'm just waiting for that little thing to appear." Liang Zheng also said with a smile.
"Senior sister, is this here?" Liu Yu walked around the huge fruit tree and asked curiously.
"Yes, this is the fruit tree, Junior Brother Liu, it's up to you next." He Anqing took over and said.
"Sister He, don't worry, I will try my best!" Liu Yu replied.
"Junior brother Liu is coming with us this time. As long as the green bird appears again, we will be sure of success." Sun Kang patted Liu Yu on the shoulder and said with a smile.
Fang Lanlan and the other two nodded in agreement with Sun Kang's words. They had witnessed Liu Yu's terrifying sword-wielding speed with their own eyes on the Mid-Autumn Festival night, and they had great confidence in Liu Yu.
"This pear is ripe and quite sweet." Liang Zheng jumped to the fruit tree and picked a green pear, wiped it on his clothes and took a bite.
"Quick, pick one for me." He Anqing immediately became interested when he heard it.
Liang Zheng picked several in a row and jumped down to share them with Liu Yu and others. Fang Lanlan took out a porcelain basin and a jade bottle and poured water into it for everyone to clean. However, He Anqing on the side had already taken several bites and was eating. Fang Lanlan couldn't help but shake her head when she saw it.
Liu Yu took the cleaned green pear from Fang Lanlan and took a bite. The skin was thin, the meat was crispy, juicy, sweet, slightly sour, and extremely refreshing. It was really good.
The five of them camped on a huge oak tree not far above the green pear tree. They did not set up a conspicuous tent. They also chose to light a fire at night by a very far water pool. Liu Yu kept squatting on the oak tree and paid attention to the green pear tree. Movement around.
The next few days were like this. Liu Yu was squatting alone, while several others were searching for elixirs in the mountains not far away. It was not a problem to stay by the green pear tree. It was not known when the green spirit bird would come. Appearing, this way there is no waste of time, not to mention that you really get a lot of magic medicine.
The most valuable one was a 400-year-old wild ginseng that Fang Lanlan collected. It was worth more than a thousand low-level spiritual stones, which made several people extremely excited. It was a good sign.
