Because Qin Bai was busy carving rune patterns, he didn't come out of the cave until it got dark. By this time, there were already more than a dozen animals squatting outside.
The number was much higher than before, and some of them even brought their families with them.
Qin Bai distributed the prepared dishes, most of which were small snacks. Because he was in a hurry, he was a little perfunctory.
Each animal has its own natural enemies, but they eat together peacefully until they swallow the food and then leave one after another.
Qin Bai felt another point being recorded on the system panel and couldn't help but sigh that this place is really nice.
After cutting the leeks, he returned to the cave without haste to continue his retreat. The originally turbid pool became clear again after a long period of sedimentation.
Qin Bai's hands were itchy and he planned to take a shot.
Because of his magical fishing powers, he was able to catch fish as soon as the hook hit the water. He felt that the weight on the pole was not light, and he could vaguely smell the fishy smell of the sea, and he immediately became happy.
Qin Bai silently took out the golden hammer. As soon as there was any movement on the water, he was ready to dive directly into the water. He would definitely not be used to it.
But as the fishing line was slowly retracted, I saw dozens of kilograms of kelp hanging on the hook.
No problem, kelp is considered seafood.
He put away the kelp with a slight melancholy, and then took a look at the donkey. At least he had food for the next meal. They were all eating grass anyway, so it wasn't a big problem.
Donkey looked confused. He worked hard outside to run business, but in the end he treated the hero like this?
Qin Bai ignored the resentful eyes behind him and returned to the cave to continue refining the magic weapon with the Taiyin Formation.
For this purpose, he specially purchased a fish bag with the largest space, probably more than a hundred cubic meters.
It took Qin Bai a whole night to carve the lines of the Taiyin Formation on the inside of the bag. Although he had successful experience, he failed this time.
Thousands of points were wasted, which further strengthened his belief that all living beings are leeks.
After the lunar array on the fish bag started to operate, the entire bag turned black, and you could feel the coldness emanating from it when you held it in your hand.
Facts have proved that there is nothing wrong with Qin Bai's idea of using the fish bag to refine the magic weapon. After the bag contains Huang Qiongjian, a trace of Yin Qi automatically nourishes the flying sword.
The brewing speed is not even slower than him. It shouldn't take long for an ordinary paper sword to become a blood paper sword.
However, Qin Bai still felt that the sword bag was a bit lacking. You must know that Yan Chixia's sword box can increase the sharpness of the flying sword, making it even sharper.
He had to wait until he met Yan Chixia again to find an opportunity to learn the opponent's flying sword technique.
He continued to make paper swords until he reached the upper limit of the sword bag's storage capacity. He planned to use these paper swords for consumption.
It has taken more than two days after being so busy. During this period, animals would gather at the entrance of the cave at night. Those who didn't know it thought they were feeding monkeys at a certain scenic spot.
Qin Bai's points have reached over 10,000, and he is gradually becoming rich.
But these animals have been eating his dishes for a long time and have become more or less accustomed to the taste, and diners' satisfaction has shown a downward trend.
Qin Bai realized again that cutting leeks must be done in waves. This is the principle of great simplicity.
Since he was not short of money, he naturally planned to buy some equipment. The golden hammer was very easy to use and there was no need to replace it, and the same was true for the rice fishing rod.
Thinking about it this way, he found that the only kitchenware he didn't have handy was the kitchen utensils, so he immediately started picking them out.
There are many convenient high-tech rice cookers in the Points Mall. As long as Qin Bai buys one, he will free his hands immediately, but after a moment of hesitation, he still chooses to give up.
If you want to bring out the flavor in food, relying on machines is never the best way.
In the end, Qin Bai bought a magic weapon, which seemed to be an ordinary iron pot, but in fact it could change its size.
And according to the introduction of the points mall, the iron pot is integrated with the bone armor of the black turtle. As long as it is turned over, it can turn into a turtle shell to protect itself.
But for Qin Bai, it would be easier to just crush it into pieces and use the magical power of forged iron.
After perfecting all the magic weapons and the like, he focused his main energy on training and the aquarium.
Don't be in a hurry when refining the gas. There has been progress regarding the aquarium. One of the seeds sown has already sprouted.
Qin Bai carefully compared the appearance and found that it should be an aquatic plant called "dead gray algae".
This is a seed purchased from the ingredients unlocked from the ancient recipe. It is said to taste fishy and bitter, but it will leave a sweet taste in your mouth after eating it.
The price of gray algae is expensive, but Qin Bai has found a way to make money, so he simply bought a pound of seeds and spread them.
After the dead gray algae gradually sprouted in the past few days, Qin Bai felt that the oxygen content in the water had reached a level that could survive life.
In that era, there were giant beasts everywhere, which naturally required extremely strong oxygen content in the air to support body movements. Therefore, even the most common algae had an oxygen-producing capacity that far exceeded that of ordinary trees today.
Seeing this, Qin Bai started to raise fish, so he was very greedy for those rare water animals, but he had to eat his food one bite at a time.
He exchanged it for a dozen thumb-sized fluorescent fish. These small fish have translucent bodies and their abdomens secrete glowing fluorescent stones.
Fluorescent fish live in the deep sea. Because they emit light, they are extremely visible in the dark and easily attract the attention of predators.
But it lives in groups, usually thousands of them gather together. From a distance, it looks like a giant fish tens to hundreds of meters long to scare away enemies.
Qin Bai chose to raise fluorescent fish mainly because the aquarium has no light source.
The fluorescent fish came to the aquarium after he swallowed them. They were very wary of the unfamiliar environment and gathered together and hid in the corner.
The next step was to clean up the waste with water beetles. Qin Bai didn't have many choices, so he finally bought four water beetles.
Water beetles rely on eating fish excrement and decay. They are gentle in nature, and their outer shell cannot be bitten by even carnivorous fish.
It just looks really weird, a bit like a cockroach, but it is still a cockroach from the south, and it is not small.
This time Qin Bai's expression became a little stiff when he swallowed it. After the water beetle fell into the aquarium, he quickly drank several hundred liters of Coke to calm down his shock.
The ecological cycle in the aquarium was initially established, and the cooking magical power suddenly changed, and a breath of fresh air was born.
The arowana eggs have also begun to hatch, but it may take quite a while.
Qin Bai studied the effect of Qi Qi and found that it could be used as a storage object to enter the aquarium, but it could not exceed the storage area.
He tried to use it, and the Qing Qi was exhaled from it, and then a ten-pound stone in the corner was enveloped in it.
After thinking about it, the stone was carried away by Qin Bai's mouth. Just when he thought he was going to be hit, the stone gradually shrank and was finally taken into the aquarium.
Qin Bai's eyes were a little resentful. After working on the passage between the aquarium and the outside world for a long time, the passage between the aquarium and the outside world was still in his mouth, but he didn't have to taste it anymore.
The stone sank to the bottom of the water, immediately frightening a group of fish. The water beetles usually preferred to hide under the stone, so they suddenly started fighting over the territory.
Qin Bai took in a few more stones to avoid death or injury among the water beetles.
Then he remembered something again and took out the crocodile egg and put it into the aquarium. The life on the egg was getting weaker and weaker, and he was afraid that it would die completely before long.
The aquarium has the function of incubation, but it is not reliable and I have not tried it. It is just a try.
Qin Bai no longer paid attention to the aquarium matter. After his body recovered completely, several days had passed.
Although this place has mountains, water, and leeks to earn points, the animals' customer satisfaction has gradually dropped below three stars, and staying here will only be a waste of time.
However, before leaving, Qin Bai planned to give back to the diners. During this period, he had been cooking more ordinary dishes, just to cut a wave of leeks at the end.
What he wants to cook is not the twelve dishes on the last few pages of the ** recipe. Not to mention the difficulty of those dishes, the main reason is that there is too much movement. After all, this is not deep in the desert and it is easy to attract the prying eyes of others.
It is a dish called "Phoenix Crystal" in the Chinese menu. Although it uses bean sprouts as the ingredient, its exquisiteness is undoubtedly of the highest quality.
Of course, for Qin Bai, cheap price is the most important thing.
He immediately started preparing it. The difficult part was to use bean sprouts to splice the phoenix shape. As the dish gradually took shape, the tangy aroma emanated from the cave.
Many animals had gathered outside, and the donkey sang a Gusu tune while doing nothing.
A few birds followed suit, and the atmosphere suddenly became lively.
A young man on the mountain road was attracted by the sound. He cautiously approached the waterfall and was immediately shocked by the scene in front of him.
Dozens of wild animals gathered together, including tigers and black bears, but there was no fight.
The young man came out this time to chop some firewood for home use, but unknowingly he walked a little further.
He originally wanted to go back as soon as possible, but when he heard the movement and was curious, he went over and discovered the scene of a gathering of beasts.
The young man patted his face and backed away nervously, intending to leave just now, fearing that he would disturb the beast by making any noise.
At this moment, a tangy fragrance filled the air.
The young man subconsciously raised his eyes and saw that the scent was coming from a cave not far away.
Then Qin Bai walked out holding a plate covered with white cloth.
He stood in the open space, and the beasts couldn't wait to move forward, but they stopped under his intimidation.
The young man swallowed, and a thought suddenly appeared in his mind. I am afraid that only an immortal can achieve such a scene.
As the white cloth covering the plate was gradually lifted, he became more convinced that he had met an immortal. He saw bright light emanating from it, illuminating the surrounding area.
A white phoenix carved out of crystal lay on the plate. When the light faded slightly, the phoenix suddenly moved.
It spread its wings and flew up, as if it really was the legendary beast.
The phoenix circled around the herd, and as its wings flapped, crystal clear snowflakes fell from the sky.
The beast opens its mouth and chases the snowflakes, which are the bean sprouts that make up the body of the crystal phoenix.
After waiting for the Phoenix to disappear, all the beasts are still savoring it. Even if they have no sense of taste, they can still feel the fragrance surrounding their mouths.
Qin Bai nodded with satisfaction. He had already packed his things, called the donkey and headed into the distance.
After the figures of a man and a donkey disappeared in the mountains, the young man reacted belatedly.
And the beast didn't know when it returned to the forest, everything seemed like a dream.
He scratched his head in confusion, and then subconsciously looked in the direction of the cave.
Seeing that it was getting late, the young man did not dare to waste time, gritted his teeth and rushed out from the bush where he was hiding.
He quickly got into the cave and looked around, but found nothing.
Just when he was disappointed, he noticed a small book under the stone in the corner.
The young man used all his strength to move the stone away and then picked up the book. He blew away the dust on the cover, and the words "Radio Gymnastics" came into view.
Opening the book, it is full of obscure sentences and pictures of characters' movements.
Although it is said to be Qin Bai's bad taste, it is indeed mixed with his superficial understanding of Zhuang techniques.
As if the young man had found a treasure, he stuffed the book into his arms, then took the firewood and returned to the original road.
But after all, he had gone too far. By the time he returned, the sky had darkened. There were few houses in the small mountain village, and there were no candles to light. Most of the houses were dark.
He walked into the room nervously, only to see my mother sitting anxiously in front of the table. The pickles on it were already cold.
It can be seen that the life of the orphans and widowed mothers is extremely difficult. On weekdays, they only eat wild vegetables or food provided by the villagers in emergency situations.
"Hanwen, why did you come back so late... cough cough cough..."
"I'm sorry, mother, I got lost in the mountains for a while."
The young man quickly stepped forward and slapped his mother on the back, feeling full of self-blame.
After she regained her composure, I shook her head and said, "Hanwen, you have been studying literature for more than ten years, right? Do you still want to get a degree?"
"me……"
The young man was a little at a loss. After a while, the old lady took out the letter and said: "Your uncle sent a letter during the day and wanted you to go to Hangzhou. He said he had found a job for you in a drug store."
He originally wanted to refuse, but seeing the old lady's appearance, he had no choice but to agree.
At this time, the young man touched the book in his arms and suddenly remembered something: "I remember that my uncle opened a martial arts gym in Hangzhou some time ago."
His mother touched his head happily and said, "Yes, he took good care of us when he came back from the army. If the pharmacy doesn't care about food and accommodation, go to your uncle's place."
The young man nodded, but his mind was entirely focused on the martial arts secret book left by the immortal.
Suddenly he had an idea in his mind, becoming an apprentice in a drug store would be better than practicing martial arts like his uncle.
"Don't let others look down upon you when you go to Hangzhou. Our Xu family is the queen of the nation."
"I know, mother..."
The young man took the letter from the old woman's hand, with a line of large characters written on it.
"Pang Yong sent it to me, and my nephew Xu Xuan received it."
At this time, Qin Bai was practicing in a tent in the wild until he suddenly felt his nose was itchy.
He couldn't help but scratch it and suppressed the thought of sneezing.
