Ying Qingci reached out and patted the cloth bag he brought back. Ying Qinghao looked at the cloth bag with a pair of curious eyes flashing excitedly. Zhu Qing also looked over after hearing this.
But when he saw the contents of the bag, he couldn't help but frown.
"Xiao Liu, is this really edible?"
How come she hasn't seen these things before? Each one looks chubby, but are they really delicious?
"It's edible." Ying Qingci approached Zhu Qing and whispered in her ear. "Mom, this is also something I have dreamed about in my dreams."
Although the current sweet potatoes are not yet mature, and the sugar content is not as high as when they are mature, they have no extra food now, so they can only use these unripe sweet potatoes to satisfy their hunger.
After waiting, when the sweet potatoes in space are ripe, they can eat sweeter sweet potatoes.
"Then I'll take it in quickly." Zhu Qing no longer doubted Ying Qingci's dream.
However, when she went back, Zhu Qing's eyes fell on Nan Xiangyun who was standing aside: "Xiao Liu, this is..."
"Mom, this is the person I picked up on the mountain. He was injured. I asked him to come back with me first and make peace with him. After he recovers, he will leave."
"Aunt, excuse me."
Zhu Qing hesitated to speak, but soon returned to her original state.
She couldn't say much about the people Ying Qingci brought back. She knew Xiaoliu wouldn't make trouble unreasonably.
Entering the ruined temple, Nan Xiangyun didn't mind it. He found a place and sat down. Now he needed a good rest. He didn't apply any medicine to his injuries, but was simply cleaned by Ying Qingci.
After coming down from the mountain, the wound that had healed slightly now opened again.
"Child, here, have a drink of water."
Huang Xuecao also heard that Ying Qingci had picked up someone from outside, but he had no objection. If others had picked up someone, they would have started scolding them by now. How could he be so calm now?
The bowl in front of him was cracked, and there was only half of the water in the bowl, but Nan Xiangyun knew that just this little water could be life-saving for the current refugees.
This family was willing to give him a bowl, and a strange feeling gradually took root in his heart...
"Thank you, ma'am."
"You're welcome, drink quickly."
After handing it to him, Huang Xuecao turned and left, with pity in his eyes. It was pitiful that this child was so seriously injured that he would not survive long in this world.
Alas, what a pity.
For some reason, Nan Xiangyun always felt that the water in his hand was particularly sweet. After one sip, the bowl was empty.
Over there, Ying Qingci took out the sweet potatoes he brought back.
Not too big, but not too small either. The biggest one is now much bigger than her hand.
She dug a total of three sweet potato vines and used the vitality of life to stimulate their vitality so that they would not wither too much.
"Xiao Liu, is this the edible thing you said?"
As soon as Huang Xuecao came over, she saw Ying Qingci picking up a few sweet potatoes, putting them into the charcoal they were burning on the fire, and started to bake them.
Without other ingredients, baking sweet potatoes is the best choice now.
"Xiao Liu, won't this burn it?"
Huang Xuecao looked suspicious. How could anyone throw food into the fire? Wouldn't it turn into a pile of ashes?
"No, Nai, grandma, this is a sweet potato. It can be eaten roasted or boiled. It has not reached its ripening season yet, so the taste is quite different in comparison. However, if you eat it roasted, The taste is okay too.”
"Xiao Liu, did you find this from the mountain?"
"Well, I searched around the mountain over there and found a few plants. I dug them all back up. I think someone brought them there accidentally and allowed them to take root and sprout."
"That's it."
The ruined temple is very quiet, not because there are few people, but because the refugees are not willing to spend more energy talking. After all, every word they say consumes their physical strength. Once the physical strength is exhausted, they need Eat something.
But in this world, where do they have extra food?
One meal a day is pretty good.
Ever since Ying Qingci said that sweet potatoes were delicious, Xiao Qinghao had been standing in front of the charcoal fire. Ying Qingci did not stop him when he saw this, but only told him not to get close to the fire to avoid getting burned.
Ying Qinghao nodded obediently in agreement, his eyes fell on the raised part on the fire, and without blinking, he said it must be delicious if his sister said it was delicious, just like the chicken legs and rabbits before Meat is delicious.
It was the most delicious food he had ever eaten.
Although some of his words cannot be expressed clearly now, his actions express it very clearly.
He squatted in front of the fire, feeling exhausted.
Suddenly, his little nose moved, and a sweet smell broke into his nose. It was a smell he had never smelled before, and it was very sweet.
Not only Ying Qinghao, but Zhu Qing and Huang Xuecao also smelled the smell and looked sideways at the fire.
He saw Ying Qingci walking over. When Xiao Qinghao saw Ying Qingci's figure, he stood up from where he was. Because he had been squatting for too long, his feet were numb and he staggered when he stood up.
Upon seeing this, Ying Qingci quickly reached out to catch him to prevent him from hitting the ground and getting hurt.
"Sister, it smells good, it smells good~"
He pointed to the fire, leaving a trace of suspicious liquid at the corner of his mouth.
"Xiao Qi, don't worry, I'll get it for you right now."
Ying Qingci took out a dead branch and took out a few dark sweet potatoes from the fire. They were now roasted to a sweet aroma and were almost ripe.
She carefully broke open a piece, revealing the red flesh inside. Perhaps due to the influence of raw energy, or perhaps due to the weather, the appearance and appearance of these sweet potatoes were no different from mature sweet potatoes.
However, just in case, it is better to eat less, especially for Xiao Qinghao, who is still young and it is not easy to digest unripe sweet potatoes.
"Be careful of the burn."
"Wow! What a great time (eat)!"
After taking one bite, it was soft, delicious, and had a sweet feeling. Ying Qinghao squinted his eyes while eating, and he didn't forget Ying Qingci while eating.
"Sister, eat~"
"Okay, sister, let's eat later. Xiao Qi, let's eat first."
After she took out all the sweet potatoes, she put a few more in, took two medium-sized sweet potatoes, put them in a bowl, and brought them inside.
Nan Xiangyun was resting with his eyes closed at the moment. After hearing the movement, he opened his eyes instantly. After seeing that it was Ying Qingci, the vigilance in his eyes dissipated a lot.
Then, his eyes fell on the... black thing in Ying Qingci's hand.
This thing...can't be lunch, right? Can this only be eaten? It looks dark, are you sure it's not poisonous?
Ying Qingci naturally noticed his gaze, but she didn't care and placed the bowl in front of him.
