"There is a mountain stream 500 meters ahead on the mountain road. It's perfect for us to take a break. You boys can go hunting now. Remember to prepare enough for two meals. Shila Shahin, help me pick up some dry branches. I'll make some soup for breakfast. Captain, give me the food." Rumanni said, reaching out to Hebrew Adam.
Everyone saw that because of her ruthless hands that broke the leaves, Ruo Manni's slender hands were stained dark green by the leaves of the plants.
Hearing what Ruo Manni said, Hebrew Adam took out a palm-sized box from his backpack and gave it to Ruo Manni. The others had never seen the thing before and couldn't guess what it was, so they looked at it curiously. At the same time, they also sighed that Ruo dared to let Hebrew Adam help her carry things. It was amazing.
"What is this?" Sheila Shahin always acts as the spokesperson for other kids.
“You’ll know in a moment.” Rumanni pretended to be mysterious, but in fact she just wanted to see Sheila Shahin’s overflowing curiosity, scratching her ears and cheeks.
Several other boys were as curious as Sheela Shahin, but were dragged away by the captain to go hunting.
Ruo Manni and Sheila Shahin continued to walk towards the mountain spring and smelled the aroma of barbecued meat from afar.
"Is there anyone up there?" Sheila Shahin asked alertly. She was no fool.
"That's the team of cadets from before, um, Team Asimu."
Although they were rivals, they were not enemies. The two girls did not avoid them and continued to walk forward.
There was a small gentle slope around the spring. The two girls walked over and, not surprisingly, came face to face with ten military cadets.
Ten boys were grilling meat around a fire. Maybe because their skills were not very good, some of the meat was burnt black and some was half-cooked. If Manny smelled the air, she could tell that there was probably no seasoning other than salt, so it was hard for them to take big bites.
After seeing the two girls, the ten boys froze, looked at the barbecue in their hands, and their expressions became a little embarrassed.
"Hello, would you like to eat something?" The team leader Abulilaiti Asimu greeted them reluctantly.
He was a tall and strong man with not very handsome features, but a somewhat rough and resolute look. When he greeted them, his expression was a little awkward, and he obviously knew that the food in his hand was not very presentable.
“Thank you for your kindness. Our captain and his men are also going hunting.” Ruo Manni smiled and thanked them.
She was the vice-captain, and since Sheela Shahin had no interest in interrupting, she had to take over.
After saying that, Romanni turned to Silla Shahin and handed over the net bag in her hand: “Silla, take these leaves to the water and wash them clean.”
In front of outsiders, Silla Shahin was very respectful to Ruo Manni, the deputy captain, and took it over without saying anything.
Ruo Manni found a stone to sit on, opened the box in her hand, took out a piece of golden metal, and squeezed it in her hand...
The Asimu team opened their eyes wide and looked at it in confusion...
About ten minutes later, the boys from Adam's team, who had successfully hunted the prey, found the mountain spring. When they saw the golden pot that Ruomanni had put on the fire to boil water, they suddenly realized that it was a pot made of rubber gold.
Rubber gold is a unique product of the Imperial City, a very magical metal, although it is solid but somewhat soft, so it has both plasticity. This strange metal has very good toughness, a high melting point, and is not as toxic as ordinary metals, so the human body can have close contact with it.
Normally, the most common use of rubber gold is to make various models. People with strong strength can knead it into various models with a little effort.
But their deputy captain had the magical idea of using rubber gold as cooking utensils, kneading it into a soup pot that could be placed in the fire and six bowls and six spoons.
Everyone suddenly realized that rubber gold could be used in this way. Their deputy captain was really smart.
"Deputy Captain, I should have another piece of rubber gold here," Su Forty-three asked.
"It will be useful soon." Ruo Manni smiled and looked at the pile of prey. She was indeed foresighted.
Team Asimu watched as the other members of Team Adam, under the instructions of Romanni, quickly skinned the prey, washed it, cut it into pieces and put it into the pot. Then, in less than five minutes, a meaty aroma that was completely different from the smell of barbecue filled the air.
That’s not all. Ruo Manni also put the edible leaves into the broth, and had someone take out the small bottles and jars, sprinkle some of each into the soup, and then a mouth-watering aroma wafted out.
The members of Asimu's team suddenly felt that the barbecue in their mouths was dry and choked their throats like firewood when they chewed it. It was very tasteless, which was in sharp contrast to the aroma of the rich broth.
Each of them felt that they could not bear it any longer and could not eat any more, so they threw away the food in their hands and prepared to set off in a team to avoid being hungry again.
Except for Romani, no one in Adam's team noticed the embarrassing appearance of Asimu's team, because even Hebrew Adam was completely attracted by the fragrant wild vegetable and meat soup and could not pay any attention to it.
Tamaki Kazra looked at the pot eagerly and couldn't help asking several times: "Captain Ruo, it smells so good. I'm so hungry. Can we start eating?"
The Asimu team heard the genius girl say softly: "Well, it's okay."
The members of Asimu's team couldn't stand it anymore and walked away quickly. Just as they left, the members of Huade's team, who were carrying prey, came over following the smell. They saw the members of Hebrew Adam's team drinking the exotic beast meat and vegetable soup happily. They also suffered the same critical blow as the Asimu team and felt very hungry.
"How did you come up with the idea of using rubber gold like this? How did you cook this soup and what ingredients did you add?" Even someone like Hua Deli couldn't help but ask.
Rubber gold can actually be used in this way. The members of Huade's team felt that they had learned a lot. They didn't know who came up with this good idea, but they all seriously suspected that it was Ruomanni.
Because these people have been away from the kitchen since childhood, even if some of them could think of bringing rubber gold, they would not do so, so from the beginning, they decided to hunt and barbecue.
"We are the head chefs of the Ru team, and the rest of us are just assistants." Sheila Shahin kindly took the time to answer them. She looked at the little team members of Huade who were drooling but unable to eat, and felt that the broth in her hand was even more fragrant.
While Hua Deli's team was preparing their own food, they could not help but smell the aroma of the exotic animal meat and wild vegetable soup. They felt that life was really too difficult. In the next two days, they should try not to get together with them to prepare food, so as to avoid not being able to swallow the food.
When the members of Huade's team saw that after the Hebrew-Adam team had eaten their fill, they dug out six balls wrapped in rubber gold from the fire, washed the dirt off the balls in the stream, and put them into their own backpacks.
Hebrew Adam had no intention of sharing the remaining broth with them. He pinched the rubber gold top of the soup pot into a ball to ensure that the broth inside could not flow out. He then scooped it up in the net bag that Romannie had used to collect wild vegetables and tied it to the back of Su Forty-Three's backpack.
