Chapter 62
Most of the ancient strange beasts have been associated with famous guys such as Taotie, Pixiu, or Kunpeng. In fact, those creatures are only suitable for growing in the prehistoric times. Until now, they must become the enemy of human beings.
In the eyes of alchemists, the name of strange beasts is not very mysterious. To put it bluntly, it is a creature that existed since ancient times. In addition, not all strange beasts have magical abilities, or are tempting values such as life-restraining, lightening, and life-restraining.
Most alien beasts are mediocre and incompetent people. They survived by chance until now because of lack of value. Cultivators are too lazy to hunt time and effort, which is rare like Fengli, who can live for 500 years. If it weren't for the decline of alchemy, fewer and fewer people would know the goods, and they would never wait for the fat man to collect it.
For fat people, strange beasts are everywhere. What we need to do is to distinguish which is garbage, which is useful, and which ones must be obtained. Even if you pay a high price, you will not hesitate to say it.
However, the living environment today is really bad, and even wild animals are hard to find. Not to mention the strange beasts in ancient times are an undeveloped virgin land compared to the eastern coast of the motherland.
Two days later, the fat man appeared on the way to Tibet Ya'an, on the road to Tibet. He wanted to explore strange flowers and beasts on the way, so the fat man had to put away his flying sword. Of course, it was impossible to take a plane.
Walking slowly, you can not only carefully search for traces of strange beasts, but also enjoy the beautiful scenery along the way. The air is wet and mixed with silky drizzle drizzle drizzle on your body without feeling discomfort. Instead, it is very comfortable and refreshing. This is the environment that cultivators like. You should know that the fat man’s cultivation method does not require high spiritual energy, but a clear environment can make people feel comfortable.
So he deliberately avoided the noisy city and chose the sparsely populated wilderness. After a few days, the strange beast was not found, but he was greedy and suddenly heard the aroma of dishes in the air. It was particularly tempting to mix with the fragrance of plants.
"What's so fragrant?" In addition to using your eyes, your sharp sense of smell is also crucial, but the fat man's discovery obviously has nothing to do with the strange beast.
Although Wang Hao is not picky at ordinary times, his cooking skills are first-class and he has tried too many delicacies, so it is not easy for him to praise the word "scent".
Following the tempting aroma, I finally found a little cooking fire in the distance. It was not surprising that some people were barbecuing in the wild. It was originally a kind of fun, but it was amazing that they had to set up a big pot. Who would take a big pot to travel?
What's more, the chef is still a single woman, white clothes are as snowy as the snow, and her hair dances gently in the evening breeze, bringing out an indescribable style. It is a kind of just a beauty, which is integrated with the elegant scenery of Ya'an, and even a back can arouse the infinite imagination of others. However, unless you have good strength, you are not qualified to appreciate this beauty. It is conceivable that a normal person will see a woman in white clothes and long hair in the wilderness at night. He will definitely not be imaginative, but he must be creepy. A timid person may run away on the spot.
The second girl is definitely not a good girl, the fat man quickly came to the conclusion that the basis for judgment is very simple. The good girl would not appear in the wilderness at this time, and cook something with pleasure. Maybe it is an alien. Although the fat man is very familiar with strange beasts, he has only a slight understanding of the knowledge of monsters. The so-called specialization in learning, and subduing demons is not his own skill.
"Don't mind enjoying it together?" The fat man jumped gently to the girl, to be precise, beside the cooking fire. When he spoke, he looked into the pot. No wonder the aroma was strong but not greasy, but released a rare fresh sweetness. It turned out that all kinds of fungi were cooked in the pot. After a rough look, there were at least ten kinds, and they were not varieties that could be found in the vegetable market or the city.
The woman raised her head, and behind her silky hair, there were a pair of morning star-like eyes. They were black and white eyes. The black part was deep, and the black one was so tempting that she couldn't extricate herself when she fell into it. The white part was extremely clear and could not be seen.
In contrast, everything around was dull, including the appearance of a woman, her black and moist hair, her soft and graceful figure, and even the drizzle of Ya'an, were buried in the endless depth.
"Have we seen it before?" Wang Hao almost subconsciously blurted out that he always felt that his eyes had seen them somewhere, but he couldn't remember them for a while, but no matter how he heard this, it seemed like a clumsy way of picking up a conversation.
The woman said nothing, nodded and indicated that he could join, and then continued to observe the cooking fire. She was particularly particular about the heat when cooking soup, so experienced people always look at the fire, rather than whether the food in the pot was cooked.
Seeing that she refused to speak, the fat man was a little bored. He carefully looked at the fungus in the pot and looked closely and couldn't help but sweat appeared. Southwest provinces and cities had the habit of eating mushrooms. And out of curiosity, people like to try varieties that they had never seen before, which led to the number of people who were poisoned and lying in the hospital every year.
However, there are many local methods among the people to test poison, such as traditional silver needles or broken bacteria. Looking at the color of the juice, of course, the most intuitive method is to observe the color of bacteria. Generally speaking, the color is peaceful, dim and non-toxic, otherwise, it is best not to try it. People often say that poisonous flowers are the most beautiful. Although there are exceptions, in general, they are more effective.
The cooking process is getting closer and the fragrance becomes more and more intense. From time to time, wild beasts growl from afar. Are even interested?
The woman skillfully served two bowls of mushroom soup, and then looked at the fat man with a burning look. After all, there were only two of them at the moment. At first, she had to observe the fire, but now she could only look at people. It was obvious that she was very interested in watching the fat man drink it.
Wang Hao looked at the colorful mushrooms in the bowl. It was so bright. If it was a person who didn't know how to do it, he would definitely not have the courage to try it, but Wang Hao was not afraid at all. This is called skilled and brave.
Put it beside your mouth and blow it cool carefully. Shi Xihui swallowed it. Finally, she smiled and expressed her sincere praise. "It's indeed a good soup, the best in the world." There are no seasonings such as salty salt, MSG, and very few natural spices, so it does not cover up the flavor of mushrooms. There are no strange ingredients in the whole pot of soup. They are all wild mushrooms in the mountains and wild. The precious thing is that they are fresh. They are undoubtedly the best choice to pick and cook in the wild.
The woman smiled immediately and expressed her appreciation for the fat man. You know, most of the fungi in the pot are poisonous. Even fools can see this. Ordinary people will never dare to drink this bowl of soup. However, the toxins in the soup have been removed long ago, and few people can distinguish this. Dare to drink this bowl of soup means that the fat man has at least knowledge and courage.
"It's a pity that there is no wine." The fat man finished drinking the whole bowl of soup in a few seconds, wiped the corners of his mouth with his sleeve, and felt regretful. Chen Xuan suggested to help him get a wine utensil. The thick line was completely unreliable. He could only make a master of the spiritual practice stage by himself. It would be no problem to refine a wine pot, not to mention that he had low requirements and beautiful shapes, so he could hold a lot of wine.
