When taking food out of the space, Xue Huan suddenly realized a problem. The effect of the constant temperature talisman she had put on her before had long passed. Why didn't she feel any discomfort at all now?
Is it because he refined the spiritual energy here?
Xue Huan couldn't think of any other reason.
She planned to eat hot pot, and when she saw the Yin Yang Pond, she felt that the pond looked especially like hot pot. Lamb, beef, meatballs, mushrooms, tofu, spinach...all kinds of dishes suitable for hot pot lined up and passed by her, and she became greedy.
Bring out a table specifically for hot pot, put red-hot charcoal into the pot on the table, put a double-flavored hot pot on it, pour in the soup and the fried base, and let it burn with charcoal for a while, then the aroma will come out.
Xue Huan first ate a large plate of paper-thin mutton in one go. After settling her stomach a little, she slowly savored the rest of the food.
Of course, she had already put the meatballs, chicken legs, and pig's trotters, which are not easy to cook, into the pot.
It’s a pity that Wu Qi is not here, otherwise the meal would be more lively with the two of them.
But she didn't need to worry. As a spirit ape, she would not starve to death in the mountains and forests. She might even be enjoying herself these days.
Xue Huan took a big gulp of the cool, sweet watermelon juice.
“Quack—”
A loud frog croak suddenly sounded.
Xue Huan was startled. When she looked, she found a "frog" lying beside the Yin-Yang Pond. It looked similar to a frog, but its whole body was snow-white, with flame-like patterns dotted on its body. There was also a small bright red dot in the middle of its eyes, like a beauty mole.
If frogs are also divided into different categories based on appearance, then the one in front of us is obviously a beauty in the frog world.
She is so delicate and beautiful.
However, in nature, the more beautiful something is, the more poisonous it is. Not to mention that this frog was lying by the pond and was not hurt at all!
It must be difficult to get the frog even with your toes.
It is said that there are guardian beasts near natural treasures. The guardian beasts watch the natural treasures as if they were their own eyes, just waiting for the treasures to mature and then eat them to increase their cultivation. If anyone dares to steal them, they will be regarded as an enemy.
Isn't that how it's written in novels?
Xue Huan was already an old bookworm before she came here, and was very familiar with these routines.
Originally she hadn't seen a single living creature in the cave, and she thought the experiences in novels were unreliable, but then a frog suddenly appeared.
Seeing it barking at her, Xue Huan stopped eating and secretly became alert.
Although this frog looks small and cute, who knows if this is just its disguise? In the wild, even a bug cannot be taken lightly.
"Quack—" the white-skinned fire-patterned frog called out to her again.
What does that mean? Is he warning her to get out?
It must have thought she was coming to steal its treasure.
Although she was indeed tempted by the Fire Ice Lotus, excessive greed usually does not lead to good consequences. Now she has not even obtained the Fire Essence Amber Bead, so she dare not dream of the Fire Ice Lotus.
But even if she explained it, would the frog understand?
"Quack--" This time, while croaking, the frog also jumped up and skipped towards Xue Huan.
Here we come!
Xue Huan put the half-eaten hot pot in front of her, along with the dishes and the table, into the space to prevent the soup from spilling everywhere when a fight broke out. At the same time, she dodged to the side, with the snowflake knife already in her hand.
Unexpectedly, just as she was ready to fight, the white-skinned fire-patterned frog landed next to a meatball, and its tongue shot out like lightning, wrapping around the meatball, which was almost half the size of its body, and dragging it into its mouth.
It was a hand-made beef ball, chewy and springy. Because it was so chewy, she accidentally dropped it when she picked it up, and it rolled along the table to the ground. She had planned to eat it and then clean it up together, but the white frog actually ate it!
Could it be that it had been calling out to her because it wanted to eat?
After eating a beef ball, the white frog turned to her, looked at her with its two bulging black eyes, and quacked.
It’s like saying, it’s delicious, have another one.
There was no intention of fighting her at all.
Xue Huan had an idea and took out the hot pot table again. She took out a small plate, put some meat and vegetables in the pot, and placed the plate on the ground.
Although frogs eat insects, this one is obviously not a frog, but a frog-like beast. Its diet is definitely different from that of a frog. Didn’t it just eat meatballs? So it is obviously a carnivore.
The white frog croaked, its sound even more brisk and loud than before. It jumped over and rolled its tongue, and half of the food on the plate was gone.
After eating, it looked towards Xue Huan again, the desire in its eyes even more obvious.
Xue Huan had no choice but to feed it again and again.
Seeing that it was only focused on eating, she continued eating as well.
Anyway, there shouldn't be any fight for the time being, so she might as well continue to fill her stomach.
The white frog looks small, but its appetite is really extraordinary. Xue Huan was full, but it was still fighting. No one knew where all the food went. Could it be that there was an alternate dimension connected to its stomach?
Later, she specially prepared dishes for it. The white frog accepted all kinds of food, spicy or light, meat or vegetables, and ate them happily.
Even the flame patterns on the surface of the body became brighter.
After adding the hot pot soup base three times, the white frog finally stopped, called out lazily to Xue Huan, and jumped back to the edge of the pond.
The tongue popped out like a silver thread and touched the Fire Ice Lotus. When it was retracted, the tip of the tongue was wrapped around a petal.
It jumped back, put the petals on the plate it had just eaten, looked at her, and jumped back into the pool.
The extremely high or low temperature of the pool water seemed to have no effect on it at all, and it even made a slight "bang" sound when it jumped in.
The extreme environment of Yin Yang Pond is a forbidden area for other creatures. People like Xue Huan can't even get close to it. However, this environment can grow natural treasures like Fire Ice Lotus.
Now, one more thing has to be added.
Looking at the fire ice lotus petals on the plate, Xue Huan was a little surprised and a little amused. This white frog was quite human-like. After eating her food, it even knew how to repay her.
The Fire Ice Lotus is certainly a rare and good thing, but compared to this, she still wants to get the Fire Essence Amber Bead more.
She put the Fire Ice Lotus into the porcelain box.
The petal that Bai Wa gave her was fiery red, with the attribute of fire. Porcelain was fired at high temperatures, so it could barely hold it without being burned by the strong fire-attributed aura on the petal.
Although the appearance of the white frog was beyond her expectation, she had a acquaintance with it as they had eaten hotpot together. If she wanted to take the fire spirit amber bead, it should not attack her rashly, right?
