Chapter 60: Cooking Hot Pot
"Yeah," Zheng Fengni nodded, then smiled at Xu Xinxin and said, "It's better to do it today than to wait for a better day. Let's have hot pot here at noon today."
"real?"
Upon hearing her decision, Fang Shengnan and Pang Da beside her couldn't help but feel a little surprised.
Although they prepared hot pot base, they had to travel most of the time in the wilderness and rarely ate hot pot.
Thinking of this, they all looked at Xu Xinxin with gratitude.
When it comes to eating hot pot, Xu Xinxin is even more excited than them. She immediately raises her hand and says, "I have fresh evolved water spinach here!"
After hearing this, She Kong also said excitedly: "In my space, there is flour, I can make noodles to eat, and I have a lot of vermicelli."
We have vegetables and staple foods, and it would be even better if we had some fresh meat.
Zheng Fengni and the others suddenly turned their heads to look at Xia Runlin.
Xia Runlin: "...You guys wait here, I'll go catch some rabbits."
As he spoke, he turned and walked towards the woods next to him.
Zheng Fengni shouted at his back, "It would be better to catch a few more pheasants and bring back some bird eggs!"
Xia Runlin's back didn't pause at all, and he walked away in the blink of an eye.
Xu Xinxin was not idle either. She let the little orange cat go and asked it to help her find a relatively flat piece of land. She used a stone to dig it up and found that the land was black and wet. She immediately took out her water spinach happily.
She squatted on the ground, pulled out the leaves of the water spinach, and then cut the stems into pieces.
Pang Da, who was standing next to him, saw this and quickly said, “If you want to cook water spinach in a hot pot, just cook the whole plant. You don’t have to do this…” Trouble?
Before Pang Da could finish his words, Xu Xinxin had already inserted a piece of vegetable stem into the mud and then used his supernatural powers to induce growth.
In the blink of an eye, the water spinach grew rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye and became a lush and fresh water spinach.
"What did you just say?" Xu Xinxin withdrew her hand and turned to look at Pang Da.
Pang Da looked at the freshly grown water spinach on the ground, swallowed his saliva, and then asked her: "What grade is your water spinach?"
"Level 1, which is not a high level, but it is also delicious." Xu Xinxin said truthfully.
Level 1 means the evolution of water spinach.
Unexpectedly, they could eat such fresh and tender water spinach in the wild.
Pang Da swallowed his saliva and immediately said seriously: "What I just wanted to say is that you don't have to work so hard. Just leave it to me, such a small thing as sticking the water spinach stems into the ground."
Xu Xinxin waved her hands repeatedly and said, "No need, I'll get it done right away."
The quality of this batch of water spinach was not good, and she didn't induce much growth, so it was very easy to induce growth, and she didn't even consume much supernatural power.
After the fresh water spinach matured, Xu Xinxin dug some out and stored them in a space for future use.
Just leave the remaining piece of water spinach to grow like this. You can cut it when you want to eat it later, and then just wash it with water and put it in the pot.
Zheng Fengni, Fang Shengnan and She Kong were just picking up some dry firewood when they saw a patch of fresh green vegetables growing next to them. They all looked at Xu Xinxin in surprise.
"Xinxin, I didn't expect you to have wood-related abilities."
Xu Xinxin didn't try to hide it, so she nodded and said, "But I can only make vegetables grow."
This is already very impressive.
Zheng Fengni immediately said, "After we finish eating this hot pot, we will teach you how to use wood-related abilities to deal with mutant beasts in the wilderness."
When Xu Xinxin heard this, she nodded like a chick pecking at rice: "Yes, yes, thank you, Sister Zheng."
While they were talking, Xia Runlin had already returned from hunting.
Zheng Fengni was leading Fang Shengnan and She Kong to pick up bricks to build an earthen stove.
Xia Runlin held a pheasant in his left hand and two gray rabbits in his right hand, and asked Xu Xinxin directly: "These are all of ordinary quality. Do you want them braised, stir-fried, or fried first and then braised?"
Xu Xinxin listened to him, swallowed her saliva reluctantly, and nodded repeatedly: "I can do anything."
Zheng Fengni and the others beside them also said, "Do whatever is convenient for you. We are not picky."
Xia Runlin glanced at the frail Xu Xinxin and said, "Let's have the same."
As he spoke, he threw the three prey to Pang Da.
It turns out that he didn't cook the meal himself.
Xu Xinxin turned her gaze, following the movement of the three prey, and fell on Pang Da.
Pang Da was probably a chef in the past. He rolled up his sleeves, scalded the meat with boiling water, and scraped it with a knife. He worked very quickly.
Soon, a pheasant and two rabbits were skinned, deboned, and chopped into pieces, filling three large iron basins.
Seeing her staring at the three large iron basins without blinking, Xia Runlin couldn't help but ask her, "Didn't they give you meat to eat at Gu's house?"
"That's not the case." Xu Xinxin didn't even turn her head. She just looked at Pang Da's quick movements and said, "But their food is light, which doesn't suit my taste. Besides, all they eat is Xiao Die... Why are you asking this?"
As Xu Xinxin said this, she finally turned around and looked at Xia Runlin.
Xia Runlin: "...It's okay, you look too thin, you need to eat more."
It turns out that she doesn't like light meals.
He remembered that there was a place nearby where peppers had been discovered before, and he wondered if there were any evolved peppers growing there now. They would go and take a look later.
She is so thin. If she doesn't eat more, she won't be healthy and will easily get a fever and faint.
Xia Runlin still remembers the scene on the dam when her sister hugged her and asked her where the nearest infirmary was.
Seeing that Xia Runlin was distracted, Xu Xinxin ignored him and turned around again, asking Pang Da enthusiastically: "Pang Da, do you need my help with anything now?"
Pang Dagang sprinkled seasoning on a pot of meat and rubbed it into a marmalade red color. After thinking for a while, he said, "I remember there are a lot of wild mushrooms in the woods nearby. Why don't you go and find some with Brother Runlin?"
"OK!"
Xu Xinxin nodded, and immediately pulled Xia Runlin to run into the woods nearby.
She pulled once, but it didn't move. She pulled again and finally pulled his clothes and took two steps forward.
Xia Runlin followed her and suddenly said, "Some of the mushrooms around here are very special. You can try to find them yourself."
As he spoke, he suddenly set his eyes on the little orange cat in her arms and said, "You are not allowed to help her either. She needs exercise."
"Meow~"
The little orange cat understood what he meant, nodded seriously, and then jumped off Xu Xinxin's body.
Well, since none of you help her, she will do it by herself. She just happens to want to exercise herself.
However, from what he said… Could it be that, “There are evolutionary mushrooms here?”
Xu Xinxin said with a look of surprise on her face.
Mushrooms are good. They can be stewed in soup, stir-fried, fried or grilled.
It would be best to coat the mushrooms with flour, fry them in oil, sprinkle them with chili powder, and then serve with a bowl of mushroom and egg soup... No, her saliva is about to flow out.
