"I'm back!!"
Wearing a headset, Melk stood at the door and opened his arms, giving a surprise to Xiaomei who was sitting blankly in the room.
"Master!"
Xiaomei was so happy that she ran towards Melk with her short legs and rushed into his arms.
"Uncle, has it been built?"
Zheng Yuan asked.
"Okay, I made a hammer, an iron felt, and a forging bench. I left them outside. If you want to see them, go and see them yourself."
Melk picked up Xiaomei and threw her up and down. After Xiaomei heard Melk's words, she understood that the master did not hate her, so she became closer to Melk.
When you walk out of the door, what you see is a huge dark iron hammer. The hammer head is about 1 meter high. Different from the ordinary wooden hammer handle, the handle of this large hammer extends from the middle of the hammer head. It seems to be one piece.
The iron felt is an ordinary style, but it is very large. The forging table is currently just a pile of large parts, which Zheng Yuan cannot understand.
"Good weight!"
Holding the cold hammer handle, Zheng Yuan exerted force on his arm. The sledgehammer only shook but was not lifted.
"12.6 tons?"
After scanning the system, Zheng Yuan was shocked again.
I really didn't expect that the ordinary hammer in front of me, which was just a little bigger, could be the initiator of such high temperatures.
"Roar!"
Boqizi, who had just returned from buying vegetables from the mountain, flew over the sledgehammer, grabbed the handle of the hammer with his paws, squeezed Zheng Yuan away with his big butt, and stood firmly on it. He seemed to like this position very much, and then put his big hands on his back. The bag full of food was thrown to Zheng Yuan.
"Ho (go cook)."
"..."
Zheng Yuan had black lines all over his head, and Melke and Xiaomei inside the door laughed loudly.
------
noon.
"Uncle, I want to go to the forest in the back mountain to experience it!" Zheng Yuan said seriously at the dinner table.
Upon hearing this, Melk was stunned for a moment, then put on the headset he put aside.
"Why?"
Melk's face was full of doubts. There was no need for Zheng Yuan to go into the forest to fight for his life here. He could live happily here every day.
"Uncle...the ingredients I hunt are even more delicious!" Zheng Yuan laughed out of his gums, "And I want to become stronger, like you, or even stronger!"
"Is it more delicious? You are very suitable to be a food hunter. Originally, I wanted to train you to be a chef... But if you want to, just do it!"
Melk smiled and touched Zheng Yuan's head, completely covering Zheng Yuan's head with his big hand.
"Stop touching my head!"
Just when Zheng Yuan held Melk's finger in protest, Xiaomei ran to Zheng Yuan's side with a smile, stepped on her feet, and touched the back of Zheng Yuan's head.
“Brother’s hair is so soft and very comfortable!”
"well!"
------
The second day
"Pochiko, I'm sorry to bother you."
Zheng Yuan wore a dark green jacket and carried a new IGO outdoor backpack. He had a sharp scale knife tied to the outside of his right thigh. His hair was tied up with a rope and tied into a ponytail.
"Roar."
Boqizi still had the same calm expression. He hugged Zheng Yuan with his two big hands, flapped his wings, and flew into the sky.
"It's flying!"
His feet were a little weak. In front of Zheng Yuan's eyes was the endless blue sky. Below were tall mountain peaks connected to the vast yellow land, and further away was a green line.
Boqizi hugged Zheng Yuan and flew sideways into the distance, blowing on Zheng Yuan's face with the fragrance of Boqizi's shower gel.
"awesome!"
While his feet became weak, Zheng Yuan saw the far earth beneath him, and an unprecedented sense of satisfaction filled his heart.
"Ahhh!"
Zheng Yuan shouted to the sky.
"Ho ho ho!"
Boqizi also seemed to be very happy, shouting after Zheng Yuan, flying up and down, and making 360-degree turns from time to time.
“(ノ○Д○)ノ”
Zheng Yuan's voice changed from cheerful to frightened.
"Pochiko, slow down a little~"
"Roar!"
Pochiko flew faster.
------
Thirty minutes later.
Zheng Yuan knelt on the ground with his legs softened.
"I almost peed!"
There were circles in front of his eyes, and Zheng Yuan looked pale.
"Roar! Y(^_^)Y"
Pochiko looked unsatisfied and very happy.
"Pochiko...you go back and come back in three days."
After a long pause, Zheng Yuan stood up tremblingly.
"Roar."
Boqizi nodded, carefully brushed off the grass roots on Zheng Yuan's body, and then flew into the sky towards Melk Mountain.
"Okay, is this the Melk Forest?"
With a pale face, Zheng Yuan looked forward curiously.
In front of them is a green grassland, and further away are trees with the shortest being five stories high. Compared with the Carlo Forest, the trees here are taller and the animals and plants are richer.
"This is?"
Looking around, Zheng Yuan saw a strange plant.
It looks like a long green strip like a vine, passing through the gaps in the grass on the ground. There are small colorful flowers growing on it. Some small flying insects shuttle over the flowers, apparently pollinating them.
Detection: The seven-color melon vine, which belongs to the genus Watermelon of the Cucurbitaceae family, grows in nutrient-rich soil. In summer, watermelons of the same color as the flowers will grow at the flower position. In autumn, flowers will grow. They are pollinated by insects and brewed from them. The nectar has a variety of flavors, and the melons and vines are also edible (see details).
Capture level: 1 and below.
Edible status: Edible, melon vine, 1.2 kcal/g, vine with high fructose content, you can eat it after removing the green outer skin.
Cooking method: The current best method is to freeze until the taste reaches 12 degrees, remove the outer skin and eat the whole stick. (Details available)
"Oh, what a good luck!"
Zheng Yuan's eyes lit up, and he cut off a section with a sharp scale knife. The juice overflowed and the air was filled with sweetness.
"So sweet!"
Inside the green skin is a light yellow and transparent core. After freezing, the sweetness of fructose is higher. The mucus is sweet like honey. The core is a bit soft, with the sweetness of mango and the sourness of passion fruit.
While Zheng Yuan was eating, he followed quietly behind the little flying insect that had collected honey. Zheng Yuan planned to steal some honey to eat.
Detection: Mokofeng, family Apidae, nests underground or in tree holes. It lives in areas with dry weather and flowering plants. It has a gentle personality, but will go into a rage against creatures that harm the hive and will not stop dying. It has nerves in its tail. Toxin, 3.2 milligrams can kill an adult and cause severe pain. The tail hook will remain in the victim's body after insertion, causing continued pain. The venom will become delicious after cooking. Length: 2 cm, weight : 1.3 grams (see details).
Capture level: 1.
Edible status: Edible, 2.1 kcal/g. The honey produced is very delicious and can be eaten after processing.
Cooking method: The current best method is to remove the tail hook, preserve the venom, wrap it in egg liquid, fry it in oil at 146 degrees for 38 seconds, fry in oil at 204 degrees for 28 seconds, and then stir-fry with green and red peppers and other seasonings (see details).
