Xue Huan simply sat down cross-legged and practiced while keeping a close eye on the three cubs beside her.
The spiritual energy in the space was already rich, and when she was practicing, the spiritual energy rushed over and formed a spiritual cocoon with her as the center, wrapping her inside.
The overly rich spiritual energy turned into substance, like wisps of light blue smoke, lingering around her.
The four big black mother and sons who lived very close to her all gained great benefits.
Especially the three newly born ones, because they were born in space, their bodies have not been polluted by the turbid air of the secular world, and they are the cleanest and purest. After being nourished by the spiritual energy, they don’t even need to cleanse their essence and marrow, and they are directly promoted to spiritual beasts.
But within one night, all three cubs opened their eyes. What surprised Xue Huan was that one of their eyes was blue and moist, like a gem soaked in spring water, so beautiful.
But no dog in the village has blue eyes, so who is the father of this little cub?
Could it be that Dahei was having an interspecies communication with some animal in Lingyun Mountain?
Xue Huan looked at Dahei in confusion. Dahei looked back at her innocently, unable to answer her question.
Forget it, the child has already been born, what else can she, as the owner, do? She can only raise the child.
In order to ensure that Dahei had a good confinement and that the three little ones had enough milk, Xue Huan cooked a pot of delicious meat porridge for Dahei. Dahei ate it with relish while the three little ones hung on him, sucking milk with great effort.
Seeing this scene, Xue Huan couldn't help but reveal a loving smile.
"Have a good rest, I'm going out." Xue Huan left enough food and water for Dahei, and asked the mole beast and the wood crane to help her look after the three cubs, and then left the space.
It was just dawn outside. She opened the window, took a deep breath of the cool morning air, and white mist came out of her mouth.
She had specially cooked some extra meat porridge before, which was just enough to provide breakfast for her and Dr. He.
But eating only meat porridge was too monotonous, so she made a few egg pancakes, took out a few salted duck eggs from the ceramic jar, cooked them, cut them in half, and placed them on a plate.
The duck eggs are marinated very well and are full of oil. Just looking at them will increase your appetite.
Xue Huan carried the lunch box and brought breakfast to Doctor He.
As she came out, she took a casual glance and spotted a vine-like plant lying flat in the corner of the yard. At first, she didn't pay much attention to it, but after taking a few steps, she suddenly felt that the plant was extremely familiar. She walked closer and took a look. Holy shit, isn't this a sweet potato?!
She had previously followed her grandfather to his planting base and planted sweet potatoes with him.
My grandfather once said that a good chef must not only know how to cook, but also know where those dishes come from, so as to avoid making jokes like "potatoes grow on trees".
Because of his words and deeds, when Xue Huan sees a certain ingredient, she basically knows what its roots, stems, and leaves look like.
Afraid of making a mistake, she probed underground with her spiritual sense. The roots beneath the vines were indeed sweet potatoes! They were just not fully grown yet and looked a little stunted.
She had placed an order with the Tianxia Pawnshop before, asking them to help keep an eye out for crops like sweet potatoes and potatoes, but there was no news. Unexpectedly, she found them here.
Sweet potatoes are a good thing. Roasted sweet potatoes, sweet potato balls, sweet potato fries, sweet potato noodles... a series of sweet potato delicacies lined up and flashed through her mind.
"Uncle He, I found this in your yard. What is it? I've never seen it before." Xue Huan pinched a leaf and took it into the house.
"I brought this back from Guazhou some time ago. I stumbled upon it while shopping. The seller said it was brought back from overseas and is called sweet potato. He also said that eating it can prolong life.
"I don't believe in longevity, but I thought these sweet potatoes might have some other medicinal properties, so I bought some and brought them back. I also tried planting a patch and took good care of it, and it finally grew."
"Oh, so it's from overseas. Uncle He, is this sweet potato delicious?" Xue Huan asked curiously.
"It tastes really good, sweet and soft, and it can nourish the kidneys, strengthen the spleen and stimulate the appetite. The sweet potato seller said that eating it can prolong life. Although it's exaggerated, it does have some truth to it. It's a pity that I ate it all when I was testing the medicine before, otherwise I could have spared some for you."
He Shen felt a little embarrassed when he said this, and he quickly promised: "When those sweet potatoes in the yard grow well, I will definitely leave some for you."
Xue Huan: "Okay, but Uncle He, could you give me a piece of sweet potato vine? I want to try growing it myself."
He Shen: "What's wrong with that? Just go get it."
Xue Huan went to the yard and pinched a piece of sweet potato vine. After returning home, she planted it in the space and watered it with spiritual spring water.
The soil in the space is a spiritual field, which is fertile enough in itself. No matter what is planted there, the growth rate will be several times faster than that in the outside world. With the addition of spiritual springs, the growth rate is even faster. The sweet potato vines can be seen growing leaves and branches, and in a blink of an eye, they cover a large area of land.
The huge sweet potatoes broke through the soil, revealing half of their bodies, emitting a sweet scent with a hint of earth.
Xue Huan broke off one, which was as big as a basketball. One was enough for several meals.
She washed, peeled and sliced the sweet potatoes, and couldn't wait to take a slice and eat it raw.
The sweet potato flesh was pure white, crispy, tender, and incredibly sweet. It was way better than any sweet potato she'd ever tasted before! It could be eaten like fruit.
Xue Huan called a few friends over to share the sweet potatoes with them, but in order to prevent them from fighting over them, she placed a plate in front of each of them, giving everyone the same amount of sweet potatoes.
Although the mossbill is a small mimic, its appetite does not decrease with the change of its body shape. With a roll of its tongue, it can roll a palm-sized sweet potato into its mouth and it is gone in a few crunches.
The sweet potatoes on the plate were soon gone. "Master, more."
Xue Huan tapped its head with her finger. "Not yet. I need to save the rest for seeds and continue cultivating."
So the mole beast turned its attention to the wood crane standing beside it.
The wood crane has a small body but a big appetite. It holds food in both hands when eating, which looks very delicate.
The mole had finished the entire plate of sweet potatoes, but had only eaten half of the piece in its hand.
Mu He said to it generously, "I can't eat the rest either. Xiao Shan, help me eat it."
Xiaoshan happily approached his plate.
When Dahei saw this, he pushed his plate towards the mole beast, intending to share it with it.
When Xue Huan saw this, she didn't say anything and continued to grow sweet potatoes.
