Many birds also brought beautiful feathers to Qinglan.
"The little birds love you so much~"
Jiang Yanyue said enviously.
Girls all like cute and clever little animals. These birds are not afraid of people. Jiang Yanyue held the fat bird standing in her palms with both hands, feeling extremely envious.
Qinglan, however, was holding a pile of feathers, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. "Yanyan, do you know what it means when a bird gives you feathers?"
The other three don't have this worry. High-level orcs have their own aura, and even if they restrain their breath, it can still have a deterrent effect on some weak animals.
The little birds didn't even bother to get close to them, let alone give them feathers. Although they were very curious, they only dared to watch them from afar.
This orchard is very large, probably several thousand acres. The family spent the whole day picking the fruits, but they still couldn't pick even one-tenth of them.
Jiang Yanyue had a limited number of grids, so she could only pick the ones she liked. Loquats, peaches, and tangerines were in separate grids. Jiang Yanyue didn't have any preferences for apples, longans, and pomegranates, so she picked them and put them in the cradle to avoid running out when she wanted to eat them.
The family was busy until the sun was setting. Jiang Yanyue not only harvested a large amount of fruits, but also a lot of beautiful feathers, although not as many as Qinglan.
Jiang Yanyue wanted to take these feathers back with her, either as a souvenir or as decoration.
A gust of wind blew, and the feathers that Jiang Yanyue had specially placed in the small basket to take back flew everywhere.
"Qinglan!" The wind didn't blow anything else, but blew Jiang Yanyue's feathers high and far, making it impossible to catch up.
Jiang Yanyue didn't believe it was natural wind.
Qinglan didn't try to hide her feelings and said jealously, "Don't ask for feathers from other birds. My feathers are the most beautiful. I'll give them all to you."
Qinglan directly took out a handful of feathers and gave them to Jiang Yanyue. These feathers were brightly colored, with different gorgeous colors under different light. They were more shiny and textured than the previous feathers.
"Freshly pulled out?" Jiang Yanyue was nervous for a moment and quickly lifted Qinglan's sleeve to take a look.
Qing Lan couldn't suppress the corner of his mouth. "No, these are the leftover feathers from when I made you the golden pheasant fur coat. They are what I changed over the years. I will have enough feathers for the second one when I reach the eighth level."
Peacock feathers are extremely rare. Peacock orcs have to wait until their strength breaks through before they can change into new feathers. Moreover, only peacock feathers above the fifth level have the effect of being immune to water and fire.
Level five is an important watershed for orcs. After level five, ordinary water, fire, heat and cold will no longer have any effect on the orcs' bodies.
Wu Chen's snake skin is also impervious to water and fire. Yi Yuan also only needs to wear a fur skirt in temperatures of minus ten degrees Celsius.
"You have so many of your own!" Jiang Yanyue was not convinced. Although Qinglan's feathers were more beautiful, the feathers given by the birds were also very loving.
Qinglan simply created a gust of wind to lift up his pile of feathers, controlled the wind, and built several bird nests on several nearby trees.
"You are not allowed to take other people's feathers, neither male nor female." Qinglan was strong for once and hugged her from behind, as if he would not let go unless she agreed.
"I know!" Qinglan Jiang Yanyue sucked her neck a little hard, causing some pain and numbness.
Jiang Yanyue probably understood that giving feathers to birds was probably as meaningful as caressing the beastman's animal form.
"Really? You're so jealous of the little bird." Jiang Yanyue complained.
"I ate it, so what?" Qinglan was not ashamed, but proud of it.
The family went back home and met up with Wu Chen who was carrying several large sacks.
"This... is all?" Jiang Yanyue was a little bit unbelievable. Seven or eight bags, and they were the kind of longer and larger snakeskin bags, all stuffed bulgingly.
There were circles of small bamboo tubes on Jiang Yanyue's body, like explosives tied to her body.
"Well, I'm almost frozen, so there's no need to put it in the space." Wu Chen knew that Jiang Yanyue was a little scared, so he took it himself and didn't even ask Jiang Yanyue to put it away.
"It's okay. It's close enough that I can collect it without touching anything."
Although Jiang Yanyue was a little scared, she didn't need to open it and stare at it, so it was completely fine for her to help put it away.
Wu Chen used the same sacks for everything, saving Jiang Yanyue the space.
However, after storing the snake and Wuchen's small bamboo tube containing bombs, Jiang Yanyue's warehouse was full. She had not expected that there would come a day when 100 grids with unlimited capacity would not be enough.
While Wu Chen was cooking, the others took Jiang Yanyue to do other things. The prey could not be just carried back. It had to be skinned, cut into pieces, and the internal organs picked out before being put into the pot.
Jiang Yanyue was playing in the water by the riverbank and helping out at the same time. The small river was not polluted, and small fish and shrimps were clearly visible. The water tasted sweet and refreshing.
There are many finger-long river shrimps in the stream. The beastmen who like to eat meat look down on them at all. They have never been caught, and there are so many of them that they don’t know how to run away.
Jiang Yanyue stepped into the water, and the shrimps not only did not run away, but also surrounded her.
This was a great bargain for Jiang Yanyue. Yi Yuan made a bamboo basket for her, and she scooped and lifted the basket into the river. The river water flowed out from the gaps, and she could catch half a basket of river shrimps in one go.
After a while, Jiang Yanyue, half playing and half working, scooped up a basin of river shrimps.
This kind of shrimp is just like the one in Qi Baishi's paintings. Its body is translucent and slender, with long and flexible tentacles. It jumps around vigorously, giving a sense of clarity and freshness that you can see the head at a glance.
"Add an extra dish tonight." Jiang Yanyue kicked the basin at her feet. Although there seemed to be a lot of food in the basin, it was actually just a small dish for the males.
Jiang Yanyue ordered a bottle of Huadiao wine from the mall, paired it with the sauce that Nanxing gave her for the cold jellyfish, changed to a bigger bowl, and made drunken shrimp.
I don’t know if it’s authentic or not, but the shrimps are quite lively and drunk.
The main dish tonight is still snake meat, braised, stewed in soup, and most importantly, grilled.
The texture of the snake meat was very clear, and Wu Chen cut it into relatively large pieces. Jiang Yanyue was hesitant to eat it at first, but after the males cooperated and she accidentally took a bite, it opened the door to a new world for her.
Snake meat tastes very much like frog legs, delicate, delicious and chewy, especially the snake soup. Wu Chen added refreshing fruits and vegetables to stew it together, and the soup is clear and has a refreshing taste.
And there is no other fishy smell, just the original deliciousness and tenderness of snake meat.
Jiang Yanyue directly held the small stew pot and showed off. This was specially made according to Jiang Yanyue's appetite. Basically, there was meat, vegetables and soup in one pot. Jiang Yanyue could eat until she was 80% full, and then have something else at the end. Jiang Yanyue would feel very satisfied after eating.
"Hey, do you have to treat us differently? Look at what Yanyan is eating, and then look at us." Qinglan waved the long roasted snake in his hand and protested firmly.
Wu Chen rolled his eyes at him and said, "It's good that I didn't let you eat it raw."
Jiang Yanyue smiled and took a piece from her exquisitely arranged plate, dividing up the remaining pieces. "Okay, I'll give you some."
Wu Chen's face darkened. This was what Wu Chen prepared for himself.
It is well known that scheming males will make a little extra for themselves when they cook.
The smiles spread to the faces of several other males.
