"Her name is Manman. Before she started cultivating, she was a cook at Fumanlou Restaurant. She was quite good at cooking. Cultivators cannot eat too much impurity. We will not eat unless we are extremely hungry."
Caiyue even gave Zhao Xi a special explanation.
"From now on, your meals will be provided by the Beast Garden." Zhao Xi wanted to call out, "Manman!"
Manman heard her name called and ran over, jiggling her chubby body.
"From now on, you'll cook with me. Our kitchen is on the main mountain."
"Great!" Manman grinned, still holding a piece of smoking firewood in his hand. "I know a lot of recipes, now I can finally show off my skills!"
"What a coincidence! I know a lot of recipes too! Let's exchange ideas sometime!"
Zhao Xi was genuinely pleasantly surprised.
Immortals don't eat, nor do they study dishes or cooking techniques, and they can't just find any mortal chef to lock up in the animal park.
Now that a local, ordinary cook has come along, he might even be able to help her research traditional cooking methods.
Although I know how to use a stove and bonfire, I'm used to modern kitchen utensils, so when I try to recreate dishes from ancient books, I always feel that they aren't authentic enough.
Manman: "Huh?"
The cook initially thought that this ordinary mortal could only make some simple dry food and that she would be at the mercy of the cook in the kitchen.
Little did I know, he was a master!
Knife skills are honed through practice, but a natural sensitivity to flavor is innate.
It's as if all the recipes from ancient and modern times, both Chinese and foreign, are in her mind; she can't even understand the way she processes ingredients.
But in the end, they all proved to be correct.
Not only is it delicious, but it's also full of spiritual energy.
She was a great chef, but now she's relegated to being an assistant and preparing side dishes.
But she didn't think anything was wrong!
The head of the Hundred Beasts Garden is the best cook she has ever seen, maybe even the number one chef in the entire Immortal Realm!
The houses were completed that day, and were divided into two large courtyards, one for men and one for women.
It was rare to have someone who could cook helping out, so Zhao Xi wanted to show off her skills and cooked them a good meal.
The children and the demon cultivators all came to eat, even Salia and his dog-headed demon cultivator came.
Everyone had a hearty meal.
The disciples of the Five Spirits Sect looked at the newly built house and felt as if they were in a dream.
They don't need to worry about the rubble above them collapsing and burying them alive!
They have a home now!
But some people are still worried.
Shao Ende felt that the howling monsters outside would break in at night and devour them all, so he ordered his brothers to take turns keeping watch.
Actually, this was unnecessary worry.
There is a formation on the outer mountain of the Beast Garden, which allows only the monsters that the Beast Garden wants to roam within the designated area.
They will only encounter the Zhu Guo spirit within their living area.
In the middle of the night, several Zhu Guo spirits ran around in the grass, setting off fire spirits and teasing the fluttering moths.
They found the night watchman awake and hospitably offered him several large, round vermilion fruits.
This is a Vermilion Fruit!
These spiritual fruits are only available to inner disciples of the Five Spirits Sect!
Could this be a test from the zoo's director?!
Anyway, we've already arranged to go to the main mountain of the Hundred Beasts Park today.
These twenty-odd people placed several vermilion fruits on a plate, carried it to the main mountain, and wanted to show that they were very law-abiding and honest, and handed them all over to the sect leader for disposal.
"Is this for me? Thank you!" Zhao Xi thought without any hesitation and took a bite.
My teeth fell out from the sourness!
"They're sour! Oh dear, you should have picked out the fruit before you picked them. Don't pick these unripe ones next time. You should pick the ones overflowing with fire spirit energy, those will be sweet. These are too sour for jam, give them to the little fairies!"
Zhao Xi wanted to throw the red fruit from the plate into the flower bed next to the mountain gate.
Several asters emerged from the soil, wrapped their leaves around the large red fruit, and began to gnaw on it fiercely.
The juice dripped onto the ground, raising a layer of fiery aura.
In no time, only the core remained.
The disciples of the Five Spirits Sect fell silent.
Such a wonderful thing as the Vermilion Fruit is being used to feed the little flower spirits in the Beast Garden!
Who cares if the fruit is sour or not!
That's a magical fruit!
o(╥﹏╥)o
Meeting time!
Inside the meeting room, everyone gathered together, even the demon cultivators from the outer mountains came to join in the fun.
Feng Xiaoxiantong explained the rules of the Beast Garden.
The core principle is the equality of all living beings, and the protection of the natural ecology of the zoo.
The little fairy then casually mentioned seven or eight more rules, including but not limited to: do not pick her seedlings, do not climb trees unless you want to feed the flowers, and do not urinate or defecate anywhere, otherwise weeds will grow.
These were all translated by Feng Xiaoxiantong.
Zhao Xi didn't have any demands, only hoping that they would keep a low profile and not harm the cubs in the animal park.
After the fire spirit array in the breathing room was removed, the children and the outer mountain disciples in the Qi Refining stage could go there.
Because the place is very large, they don't need to pay spirit stones, as long as they don't disturb the children's cultivation.
The disciples of the Five Spirits Sect frantically took notes.
Once this news was announced, all the formalities and red tape seemed irrelevant.
Then it was time to divide the work.
This is the main event of the day!
"First, I need five cat owners. Each cat owner will be responsible for three cats or dogs. They are all demon beasts with spiritual roots and will grow into demon cultivators in the future. According to the feeding schedule in the Hundred Beasts Garden, they may start talking in two or three months. Moreover, they have memories, so you must be very careful."
Zhao Xi missed the names of Mei'er and the other four people. "Each cat owner will receive five spirit stones per day for now. If they do a good job, they will get a raise later."
The disciples of the Five Spirits Sect were shocked once again.
Why haven't I been to the animal park before?
