"Okay! Then the two of us will just have a few pieces of bamboo rat meat."

"The protein content of this thing may indeed be very high, as you said, but I really can't accept it."

Zhang Xiaotong also expressed her opinion again.

No matter how delicious or nutritious it is, she won't eat it.

Liu Feifei, who was standing to the side, was clearly also quite resistant to this kind of food.

But if Chen Fan eats it, she will eat it without hesitation.

Even if she didn't eat it, Chen Fan still indirectly ate it when they kissed!

I might as well just eat it myself!

"Wait for me a moment, I'm going to find some tools."

After Chen Fan finished speaking, he walked downstream.

Since he didn't bring a pot this time, he needed to find a stone to replace the large iron pot.

A dozen minutes later, Chen Fan came over with a stone slab.

The stone slab has some dents in the middle, which makes it perfect for use as a pot.

"Alright, now it's time to witness a miracle."

"When I make these bamboo worms later, don't be so hungry you'll cry."

Chen Fan smiled and said something to the two of them, then immediately began to operate the machine.

The steps are very, very simple.

First, cut the marmot's fat into small pieces and then put them directly onto the stone slab.

Then place the stone slab over the fire. As the temperature of the stone slab rises, the fat will be rendered into oil.

Then we can fry these bamboo worms in oil.

Given the current conditions, this is the only way.

Before long, a considerable amount of animal fat had been extracted from the fat.

Moreover, wisps of blue smoke rose from the extremely high temperature...

"Alright!! The oil temperature is almost right."

Once the oil was at the right temperature, Chen Fan filled a container with bamboo worms and put them in.

Sizzle!

The bamboo worms made a crackling sound the moment they were put into the oil.

It began to distort instantly, but after only a moment, it became still.

Liu Feifei and Zhang Xiaotong watched Chen Fan's actions intently from the side.

Although they didn't like eating these insects, seeing how well Chen Fan prepared them, they suddenly felt that they weren't so unacceptable.

The aroma, in particular, whetted their appetites.

"Huh?! This thing looks disgusting, but it smells pretty good."

"And once it stops moving, it doesn't look so unacceptable anymore."

Looking at the golden-yellow bamboo worms floating in the pot, Zhang Xiaotong suddenly felt they looked much better than before.

At least it's stopped wriggling, and its golden color looks very appetizing.

"It definitely looks like it! It makes me want to eat it."

"Actually, I ate grub larvae with Chen Fan before. Those things are even bigger than this, and they burst with juice in your mouth when you eat them. It's incredibly satisfying," Liu Feifei said with a mischievous grin after nodding.

"Oh dear! Stop talking, I can already picture it in my mind."

"I suddenly had a bit of an appetite, but what you said has made it all disappear..." Zhang Xiaotong quickly said.

I had finally started to find this thing more pleasing to the eye.

But Liu Feifei's words made him imagine the scene of his mouth bursting with juice when he ate the insect.

Just thinking about it sends chills down your spine.

"Okay, okay, I was just joking with you."

"After being deep-fried at high temperatures, this thing is basically fried until it's crispy, so it won't burst with juice. It is indeed crunchy when you eat it."

"Moreover, these bamboo worms are much thinner than the previous grub larvae, so they have already been dried out long ago."

Seeing Zhang Xiaotong's flustered expression, Liu Feifei also spoke up.

Just then, Chen Fan's first batch of fried bamboo worms was freshly cooked.

After taking the first portion out, the second portion was put in.

Because the grooves on this stone slab are very small, the number that can be blasted at one time is limited.

...

The golden bamboo worms were placed in front of me, and they even released a real fragrance.

Liu Feifei and Zhang Xiaotong also moved their throats slightly.

Because this aroma is just too tempting!

The aroma was simply irresistible, especially for the two hungry people.

"Why don't you try it first? Actually, I think it tastes pretty good."

Chen Fan sprinkled some salt on the fried bamboo worms, then said with a smile.

"I'll try it!"

"It looks delicious."

Liu Feifei stepped forward, picked up a bamboo worm, put it in her mouth, and slowly chewed it.

Having followed Chen Fan in his struggle for survival for so long, her courage has naturally grown considerably.

Chew slowly and savor the flavor.

It's crunchy when you first bite into it, and you can taste a hint of saltiness and oiliness.

Actually, it's no different from other fried foods.

"How is it? Is Feifei delicious?"

Zhang Xiaotong quickly stepped forward and asked with a face full of curiosity.

"Delicious!! The taste is really, really delicious."

"You should try one right away, I think it tastes even better than fried chicken cutlet."

Liu Feifei nodded repeatedly, giving an affirmative answer.

After finishing, he couldn't wait to grab two more and stuff them into his mouth to chew.

As long as you don't think of it as an insect.

It's actually quite acceptable not to think about what this insect looked like before it was alive.

Moreover, in terms of taste, it is absolutely a top-notch delicacy.

"Really??"

"Well... I'll give it a try too."

Seeing Liu Feifei eating so enthusiastically, Zhang Xiaotong couldn't sit still any longer.

Anyway, there might be other opportunities like this in the future.

So even if you don't eat it now, you'll probably have to eat it later.

It's better to just end it quickly...

Then he picked up a bamboo worm.

Then put it in your mouth.

His eyes were tightly closed, as if he were taking poison.

After a few seconds, he slowly chewed a few times.

"Huh..."

"This taste..."

"Holy crap...this is delicious!!!"

Upon tasting the aroma in her mouth, Zhang Xiaotong suddenly opened her eyes, her face filled with disbelief.

At the same time, I thought to myself, "Wang Jingze's 'it's actually delicious' principle applies to everyone."

I had previously thought that even if I died, even if I rolled down from here, I would never eat this kind of insect repellent.

But it only took less than twenty minutes before I realized how delicious it was...

It's like slapping yourself in the face.

Chen Fan smiled faintly and didn't say anything more.

The three of them quickly finished eating the fried bamboo worms.

It was bombed four times in total, but the thing was just too small.

So the three of them only had a small snack and weren't full at all!

Moreover, this stuff is like a snack; the more you eat, the more addictive it becomes.

Even the bamboo rat meat roasting in the fire suddenly didn't taste as good.
