Chapter 88
The elf's dance slowly stopped.
It burped again, then stopped flapping its wings, and then, under the gaze of Tang Yu'an and Zhou Qi, it actually fell directly from mid-air.
Tang Yu'an subconsciously reached out to take it, but was blocked by the gray-blue light dust and could not get close to the freezer.
Fortunately, the elf did not fall to the ground. The fine gray-blue light dust supported it and allowed it to slowly fall onto the refrigerator. Then the elf turned over, hugged the beer bottle and fell asleep.
It's so small that even when it's drunk it's still very cute.
Tang Yu'an felt a little guilty at first, thinking that he had gotten into trouble, but when he saw the elf grinning in his sleep, he felt relieved.
Zhou Qi watched for a while and then went to the kitchen to make lunch.
He originally wanted to stir-fry mung bean sprouts, but the ones that had been soaked had basically been eaten, so Zhou Qi had to give up. He took two large plastic basins and decided to soak more mung beans this time.
Anyway, there is a portable warehouse for storage, so it will always be fresh no matter how long it is kept.
After lunch, the soy milk is ready.
Zhou Qi filtered the soy milk and poured it into the pot, added water again, and then turned on the fire to boil. Then he turned off the heat and waited for it to cool for two minutes. A layer of bean skin condensed on the surface of the soy milk.
"Brother Xiaoqi, can we still make bean curd sheets?" Tang Yu'an asked curiously.
"Sure, but I remember there are some in the shop."
"Then let's fry some bean curd sheets tonight?" Tang Yu'an said happily.
Zhou Qi smiled, nodded and said okay.
Then he picked up the layer of bean skin, stirred the soy milk with a spoon and slowly added brine. When floc-like tofu curds formed in the soy milk, he stopped adding brine.
Tang Yu'an looked at the tofu pudding in the pot and couldn't help asking, "Brother Xiaoqi, is this tofu pudding?"
Zhou Qi nodded. "Do you want something tender or something firmer?"
“I want to eat them all!”
The tender ones can be used to make tofu pudding, and the ones that can be cut into pieces are delicious for stewing or stir-frying.
Upon hearing this, Zhou Qi couldn't help but reach out and gently pinch the tip of the boy's nose.
"Greedy cat."
Tang Yu'an chuckled.
Since there was no mold at home, Zhou Qi spread scalded gauze in a plastic net bag, then placed it on a basin of water, and poured the tofu pudding in the pot into the net bag to filter out excess water.
Then wrap it with gauze, put a piece of wood to flatten it, and then put two bottles of water to press it down and let it stand.
As for the remaining tofu pudding in the pot, put it back on the stove and wait for it to settle.
"Okay, go take a nap first, and then you can eat tofu pudding when you wake up."
"Uh-huh!"
Tang Yu'an followed Zhou Qi up to the attic. While he was making tofu, the refrigerator had already been upgraded.
【Gray-blue Freezer】
[Level: lv1]
【size:……】
Description: A two-year-old ordinary freezer was transformed by the Furniture Elves to improve its performance, converting heat into electricity and reducing energy consumption by 50%.
[Special Effect 1: "Hotter, Cooler" - The higher the ambient temperature, the better the cooling effect. The best power conversion effect is achieved under scorching sunlight.]
[Special Effect 2: "There's Wine Today" - Every morning at 6:00, 50mL of wine will be randomly generated in the refrigerator. Please place a container to collect it.]
Yes, this freezer triggers two special effects!
One special effect had a probability of being triggered, and the other one... was obviously triggered because he received a five-star rating from Bobo this time.
Although Tang Yu'an and Zhou Qi were minors and didn't drink alcohol, it was a free gift after all.
Collect them and sell them to people in need later!
And since Bobo loves drinking so much, you can collect them and give them to him. Maybe he will get five-star reviews again.
After completing the upgrade of the freezer, Bobo went into break again and would not resume business until after 12 o'clock tomorrow - because Bobo was also responsible for the upgrade of the broom, so he could only wait until tomorrow.
Tang Yu'an quickly took a cup and put it in the gray-blue refrigerator.
I just wonder if the wine collected tomorrow will be frozen into ice cubes?
When he woke up from his nap, Tang Yu'an could clearly feel that the house had become much cooler, and even the attic didn't feel so hot anymore.
He went downstairs to look at the clock and found that after the refrigerator was installed, the room temperature had dropped to 26 degrees, which was almost the same as turning on the air conditioner.
That’s awesome!
The tofu pudding in the pot has almost settled.
Zhou Qi filtered out the excess water, leaving two bowls of tofu pudding.
Tang Yu'an observed the shape of the tofu pudding and couldn't help but say, "This seems a little different from what we usually eat?"
Zhou Qi nodded, frowning slightly, "It's my first time, and I don't have the right proportions and timing."
Tang Yu'an immediately said, "But I think it will be delicious!"
"You haven't even started eating yet."
"Anyway, what Brother Xiaoqi cooks will definitely be delicious!" Tang Yu'an said firmly.
Zhou Qi looked at him and smiled: "Then you have to finish eating later."
"Humph, I'll definitely eat it all!"
Although it had been less than three hours since they had lunch, the two of them were in the growth stage and their energy was consumed quickly, so they could definitely finish a bowl of tofu pudding each at this time.
They brought the tofu pudding to the table, sprinkled it with white sugar, and started eating.
The fragrant and tender tofu pudding melts in the mouth and tastes sweet. It is Tang Yu'an's favorite.
“It’s really delicious!”
As two authentic southerners, they have been eating sweet tofu pudding since they were young, but...
"I saw on TV that there's salty and spicy tofu pudding." Tang Yu'an said as he ate, "Brother Xiaoqi, why don't we try that someday?"
"Eating spicy food can easily cause getting angry." Zhou Qi said.
Especially since the daytime in this world is so hot, even hotter than the summer temperature over there, the possibility of getting a fever is greatly increased.
But seeing Tang Yu'an's disappointed expression, he still said, "Let's try again when the temperature drops."
"good!"
Tang Yu'an laughed again.
Just as I said just now, he ate all the tofu pudding in the bowl and put down the spoon with a feeling of being unsatisfied.
"I can have braised tofu and fried bean curd sheets tonight. I'm so happy!"
Seeing how easily satisfied he was, Zhou Qi's heart was also filled with warmth. He reached out and touched the boy's head, and asked, "Do you want more? There's more in the pot."
Tang Yu'an hesitated for a moment, then shook his head, "Save it for tomorrow."
"good."
Zhou Qi took the tofu pudding out of the pot and asked Tang Yu to put it in his portable warehouse - because he had leveled up today and unlocked another slot in the portable warehouse, so he had extra space.
Then they took out their umbrellas and left the grocery store to go to the swimming pool.
Old Li did go to the swimming pool to check it out in the morning, but he did not go deep into the swimming pool. He just wandered around the periphery for a while and then left. He has now gone home.
When Tang Yu'an and Zhou Qi arrived, they found that the mutant vines had sealed off all the entrances to the swimming pool again.
The dense and thick vines have wrapped the entire swimming pool tightly, making it look like a small hill. No one knows when the swimming pool will collapse due to the pressure.
"Let me try reinforcement." Zhou Qi said.
They want to make use of this swimming pool and run it as a fish pond. When they have enough points, they can even open a branch here. Naturally, they cannot sit idly by and watch it collapse.
The reinforcement technique that Zhou Qi had just learned from Bashi came in handy.
"Okay, then I'll clean the swimming pool today." Tang Yu'an said.
The main source of the foul smell in the swimming pool is the dirty water in the pool. As long as the pool is cleaned, the foul smell in the swimming pool can be reduced by at least half.
After turning around and not finding the entrance, Tang Yu'an had to put away the umbrella, and the two of them revealed themselves.
As soon as Tang Yu'an appeared, the vines that had been swaying quietly in the wind suddenly began to vibrate excitedly, and it seemed that even the ground was shaking.
Seeing this, Tang Yu'an quickly spoke up to stop them: "Emerald, stop now! If you keep going like this, the swimming pool will collapse!"
The vines that were dancing excitedly suddenly seemed to have the stop button pressed, and the entire tree froze.
After a while, Emerald carefully stretched out a thin vine, came in front of Tang Yu'an, pulled his fingers in a flattering manner, and at the same time conveyed to him the emotions of grievance and longing.
Tang Yu'an couldn't help but touch the thin vine, and then said: "Emerald, thank you for your hard work. I will continue to purify you today!"
Upon hearing the word purification, the mutant vines expressed joy.
Of course, it was worried that Tang Yu'an would be angry, so it didn't dare to make any more noise. It just swung its thin vines gently, looking very happy. Although its body was so huge, its personality was obedient and cute.
Tang Yu'an touched its leaves again, then led Zhou Qi into the swimming pool.
A foul smell hit me in the face.
Tang Yu'an and Zhou Qi put on masks in time, but it only alleviated the symptoms a little.
"Emerald, it's so dark in here, can you let the sunlight in?" Looking at the pitch-black swimming pool, Tang Yu'an really lacked the courage to step in again.
The thin vine that was pulling Tang Yu'an's fingers like a child shook gently, and then the vine covering the window of the swimming pool automatically moved horizontally to both sides.
The sunlight outside shone into the swimming pool, finally bringing light back into the venue.
Although the light is still dim, at least I can see things clearly.
At this time, a vine stretched out, wrapped around Tang Yu'an's waist, and then pulled him into the swimming pool.
Zhou Qi, who was left behind, was startled and quickly chased after him.
Suddenly, he was pulled by a huge force and even hung in the air. Tang Yu'an was a little panicked, but he could feel Emerald's emotions through the vines wrapped around his body.
It had no ill intentions, it just wanted to get close to him and play with him.
Soon they were halfway up the venue. Tang Yu'an looked down and saw the corpse of the female lizard floating in the pool.
Its mountain-like body had been eaten beyond recognition, and the mother lizard's former food reserves had obviously entered a frenzy.
Looking at the dark pool water, Tang Yu'an couldn't help but hold his breath.
It is incredible that these creatures can survive in such dirty water. Their vitality is truly tenacious.
He patted the vines that had wrapped around him and said, "Emerald, stop here for a while. I'll purify this pool."
The vines really stopped in mid-air.
Seeing this, Zhou Qi bent his knees and jumped high, finally touching his toes on a vine leaf and stopping in front of Tang Yu'an.
Tang Yu'an, who was suspended in mid-air with the support of vines, had his eyes wide open.
"Brother Xiaoqi, you are so handsome!" he exclaimed.
It's just the blessing of the light body technique.
Zhou Qi didn't take it seriously. He looked at him with concern and only breathed a sigh of relief after making sure that he was fine.
But he still asked worriedly: "Are you okay?"
"No, Emerald is playing with me."
Tang Yu'an waved his hand and said, "I asked it to stop here. I'm going to purify the swimming pool."
This is actually safer.
After all, the creatures in the pool are still quite dangerous to him, and he doesn't know if he will be attacked if he stands by the pool.
At this height, and with the protection of emeralds, there is no need to worry too much about safety.
Tang Yu'an looked at the swimming pool below and silently calculated in his mind.
The length and width of the swimming pool are approximately 50 meters x 20 meters, and after the purification technique is upgraded to level 2, the range of action is approximately a 10-meter circle.
Theoretically, the pool can be cleaned with just 10 purifications. However, since the water is flowing, it may be difficult to clean it all at once.
After a simple calculation, Tang Yu'an determined the action plan.
He first asked Zhou Qi to leave the vines, and then directed Emerald to use four vines to cover the swimming pool, simply dividing it into five areas.
Tang Yu'an thought for a moment and then asked, "Emerald, can you divide the pool in half horizontally?"
The length of the swimming pool is 50 meters, and he was a little worried that the vines would not be long enough.
As a result, the little green vine raised its head and chest in a very human way, and the part wrapped around his finger also conveyed a little pride.
Then a green tangle separated from the corner of the wall, and then quickly stretched out, directly across the swimming pool, and finally divided the pool into two halves.
Tang Yu'an smiled and said, "Emerald is really amazing!"
Little Green Vine shook his fingers excitedly.
Tang Yu'an then directed it to move the vine to approximately the center line, so that the swimming pool was divided into ten areas of similar size.
Zhou Qi watched his actions and roughly understood Tang Yu'an's idea.
He nodded secretly and did not leave. Instead, he stood by the swimming pool and watched him quietly. If any accident happened, he would take action in time.
Next, Tang Yu'an asked Emerald to move him to the side of the pool.
The duration of the purification spell is more than ten seconds.
Therefore, as long as you apply purification to the surrounding waters before the first purification spell disappears, you can maximize the effectiveness and don't have to worry about dirty water flowing in and polluting the purified pool water again.
Tang Yu'an briefly explained the next course of action to Emerald.
Emerald sent a confused emotion.
Tang Yu'an did not continue to explain and just let it follow his instructions. He would continue to purify tomorrow anyway.
He directed the Emerald to move him above the first area, and then...
Purification, activate!
A soft light lit up from his palm, twice as bright as yesterday's.
With a gentle push from him, she fell into the swimming pool.
The pool water, which was so turbid that it was almost pitch black, suddenly became clear and bright like ink fading away.
What surprised Tang Yu'an was that the effect of purification in water seemed to have become stronger.
Originally the range was only about ten meters, but as the water flowed, the waters beyond the range of the purification spell quickly became clear.
Tang Yu'an was stunned for a second, then quickly directed Emerald to the second designated area.
He dropped a purification ball of light every two seconds on average, and by the time he reached the last area, the first three purification balls had disappeared.
The purified pool water is crystal clear, and even the organisms in the pool are purified.
Tang Yu'an looked carefully and found that in addition to fish, there were also crabs and shrimps, but their sizes were much larger than any he had seen before.
Some of them actively ran to the area where the purification spell had not disappeared, while most of them stayed in the original waters.
The octopus he saw that day was also in the water.
The black color on its body has faded, revealing its original gray-brown skin. It is swimming in the water with its claws and fangs bared, looking quite comfortable.
Even the female lizard's body became clean and didn't look so scary anymore.
After a while, the light of the purification spell disappeared one after another.
Tang Yu'an was surprised to find that the entire pool had become clean, and the situation he had worried about at the beginning did not occur.
He came to the ground and met Zhou Qi, then expressed his doubts.
"Because your plan is very useful." Zhou Qi smiled slightly and couldn't help but put his hand on the boy's head and rubbed it.
He could see clearly from below that it was not that the purification technique was enhanced in the water, but that the sewage was purified after entering the aperture, and then spread outward due to the flow.
Without waiting for the dirty water to erode and spread to this part of the water, Tang Yu'an immediately performed purification magic on the dirty water area next to it, protecting the original success while expanding outward step by step.
Finally, the purification of the entire pool was achieved.
Listening to Zhou Qi's explanation, Tang Yu'an chuckled and raised his tail proudly.
"I'm still very smart!"
Then Zhou Qi patted her head again.
At this time, the emerald vine also came over, and saw that its leaves were holding another shiny crystal.
After Tang Yu'an took it, it wrapped around his fingers, and he felt grateful and happy again.
Tang Yu'an took off his mask and found that the air in the swimming pool was much fresher. Sure enough, the pool water was the biggest source of the odor.
As for the crystal that Emerald gave him...
He lowered his head and looked at the nearly transparent crystal. If he looked closely in the sunlight, he would find that the inside of the crystal was slightly bluish.
But overall, it is still close to white and transparent.
Tang Yu'an used a basic identification skill out of curiosity, and when he found out that it was a wind crystal stone, he nodded in sudden realization.
It turns out to be wind-type, no wonder!
He held the crystal in his hand, and for some reason, he felt reluctant to put it into his personal storage.
"Brother Xiaoqi, look, this is a wind crystal stone!" He showed the stone to Zhou Qi.
Zhou Qi nodded without any special reaction.
Tang Yu'an hesitated for a moment, then put the crystal in his pocket, touched the emerald leaf, and said with a smile: "Thank you for your gift."
Emerald happily danced with the thin vines.
"An An, let Emerald drag the female lizard out." Zhou Qi pointed at the female lizard's body in the pond and said, "Otherwise, the pond will stink again soon."
Tang Yu'an nodded.
He asked Emerald to remove the vines that divided the area, then dragged the female lizard's body ashore and placed it in the circle that Tang Yu'an had cleared yesterday.
This way there is no need to worry about the lizard flesh and blood that has just been purified being contaminated again.
In just one day and one night, one third of the monitor lizard was eaten, and the bones were exposed in some parts.
The weather is hot and humid. If it is not treated, it will probably start to rot soon, just like the male lizard.
Tang Yu'an thought for a moment and said, "Brother Xiaoqi, shall I summon Yuanbao and the others?"
They definitely wouldn't dare to eat lizard meat or something like that, but according to Lin Zhen, this was at least a mutant creature close to level five.
They won't eat it, but pets can.
The improvement of pets' strength is equivalent to the improvement of their own strength.
"Can it be summoned from a distance?" Zhou Qi asked curiously.
"Sure." Tang Yu'an nodded, "But they may have to come here on their own."
"Well... let's call Yuanbao and Black Pearl over first." Zhou Qi thought for a while and said.
The grocery store needs to be protected, and Silver Coin and Wangcai cannot leave the store for the time being.
"Okay." Tang Yu'an chose summon on the pet panel.
While waiting for Yuanbao and Black Pearl, Zhou Qi took the mutant metal dagger, cut off one of the female lizard's hind legs, and then used the telekinetic skill to put it in the grocery store warehouse.
Then he cut off its other hind leg and put it in a super-sized container, and then stopped.
This female lizard is five or six meters long, and it definitely cannot fit in the grocery store warehouse. I just hope Wangcai can be as smart as before and know to run into the warehouse to eat it.
Next, Zhou Qi put away the mutated metal dagger and came to the big hole that was blasted by the female lizard before jumping into the swimming pool.
Then he reached out and pressed on the wall.
Khaki energy appeared in his palm, and he began to reinforce the wall.
It would definitely take him a long time to reinforce such a large swimming pool by himself, so he could only take it slowly.
Tang Yu'an didn't disturb him and ran to the swimming pool to look at the fish in the pond.
He roughly counted them.
There are probably more than a hundred fish in this pond, seven or eight crabs, three or four octopuses, and the shrimps are a little hard to see.
Should we keep them in the same tank? Will they fight?
While Tang Yu'an was thinking about the future construction plan of the fish pond, the light spots belonging to Yuanbao and Black Pearl on the map arrived outside the swimming pool almost at the same time.
“Swish, swish, swish—”
The vines covering the cave entrance were cut off and fell off by the flying metal pieces, allowing large patches of sunlight to shine in.
At the same time, when Tang Yu'an looked up, he saw a tall figure appear beside him at some point. It was the four-eyed giant dog that had returned to its original form.
Its cold golden eyes stared at the room where the main mutant vine was located, and it bared its teeth fiercely.
Black Pearl, who was one step behind, also jumped in nimbly, and landed in front of Tang Yu'an after a few jumps, also staring coldly in the direction of the main vine of the mutant vine.
Around it, dozens of metal pieces appeared in the air, and the next moment they all flew towards the mutant vine!
The originally well-behaved and obedient mutant vines now grew countless vines from the ground, revealing their hideous and terrifying side.
The war is about to break out!
"Wait! Stop, stop, stop!"
Tang Yu'an, who was squatting by the swimming pool counting fish, finally came to his senses. He quickly stood up and shouted loudly to stop their attack.
"You all stop right there!"
"No fighting!"
