Chapter 43 Is this reasonable?
At the same time, Si Han sighed helplessly at the disconnected dialog box.
The content of the conversation stopped at the last few messages sent by the other party. The dense and endless text was enough to show the other party's excitement.
【You, don't worry at all, this little human is quite smart. First of all, the dishes he chose are all very demanding on the chef's own skills, operation methods and heat. Without accurate and detailed instructions, not to mention ordinary people, even star chefs can't learn. Secondly, during the live broadcast, he made a lot of noise in front of the camera, and it seemed that he had said everything, but in fact, the most critical mixing ratio was not mentioned at all. Laymen watch the excitement, while experts watch the doorway. The taste of 10 grams of salt and 1 gram of sugar is completely different from that of 10 grams of salt and 5 grams of sugar. And I suspect that he may not have really mentioned all the ingredients, such as spices. The difference of one flavor or one gram can lead to a huge mistake.】
[For example, the rice noodle skin he made today, it is extremely difficult to make it soft, smooth and chewy while also being thin, transparent, light and tough. In short, it is impossible to copy what he made by watching the live broadcast. ]
[I have to say that Shanhaidou's selection of ingredients is also very good. He uses animal meat as the base, and uses extremely clear meat with extremely tender meat, extremely fresh meat and extremely lively meat. The five flavors blend together and each one shows its own color. I used to think that I was very talented in cooking, but his cooking talent is simply enviable. When I am done with this busy period, I will definitely come to Feixing to find him and have a good exchange.]
"Your luck is really amazing." Realizing that Qi Huan had to go offline again, Shen also laughed.
"Is it so funny?" Qi Huan glanced at him sideways while cleaning the kitchen counter. Suddenly, the words that woman said in the morning popped up in his mind. "Your luck is not good today, you should be careful." Could this be what she meant?
"It's okay." Afraid that tomorrow's chicken dish would be cancelled, Shen tried hard to hold back his laughter.
"Take this to your brothers to fill their stomachs first. Dinner will be served in half an hour." Qi Huan patted the steamer containing the Shanhaidou.
"As you wish." Shen Ye followed suit.
He picked up four steamers and just opened the door when a black shadow the size of a palm rushed in and landed on the steamers accurately.
"Xiao Ba! If you swallow the steamer, I'll take away your dessert tonight." Qi Huan held up the spatula and knocked the spatula handle on the table, threatening Xiao Ba with the same routine. After a few days, he had already mastered the key to controlling this person and pet.
The black ball's mouth, which had already opened to the edge of the steamer, was abruptly retracted. Just as it was about to jump onto Chen Ye's shoulder to ask him for help in opening the steamer, it suddenly stopped and looked at Qi Huan at the kitchen sink.
Qi Huan: ???
Zhou Qi Ba looked at the cage in Chen Ye's hand, then at Qi Huan. Half a second later, it resolutely pounced on Qi Huan.
Qi Huan reached out his hand without knowing why and caught the black ball that pounced on him. Just as he was about to ask it what it was doing, the little fellow had already stepped on his front with his topaz-like little hooves and rushed all the way to his shoulder at lightning speed. The next second, its pink tongue stuck to Qi Huan's cheek.
The sudden warm touch on his cheek made Qi Huan shudder.
"Why are you acting so coquettishly for no reason?" Qi Huan couldn't stand the itchy feeling and took it down. However, the little guy nimbly jumped back to his original position in a few seconds and continued to lick his cheek stubbornly.
"What's going on?" Qi Huan looked for help at Shen Ye who had already walked out of the kitchen.
Shen Ye shrugged his shoulders, "I guess he's unhappy about smelling another soul, so he's helping you disinfect it."
Qi Huan then remembered that the little fellow seemed to be licking the same place that the red snake had licked in the morning.
It is said that pets have a strong possessiveness towards their owners. Did Xiao Ba take it easy and count him as half the owner? Qi Huan didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
Only after he had washed half of his face and neck with saliva did the black ball leave his shoulder.
"Thank you for your hard work~" Qi Huan lovingly pushed the remaining drawer of dishes on the kitchen counter to Zhou Qiba. He spent a long time helping him wash his face, so he should be compensated.
Zhou Qiba happily shared his share of Shanhaidou with Qi Huan. In the next room, separated by two walls, Tao Zhe and Chen Ye, who was holding a detector, looked at each other in confusion, and Si Han also frowned.
The display clearly shows:
【Energy value: 597 A
Nutritional value: 1935
They clearly measured the energy level of the raw meat and it was B. Why did it become A when it was cooked?
Chen also moved the upper steamer away, and then found a random mountain and sea bag on the second layer and swept it.
【Energy value: 596 A
Nutritional value: 1936
The data are almost the same.
Taozhe scratched his head, "Could it be that your detector is really broken?"
Shen was no longer sure about what he said, so he looked up at Si Han, "Boss, is yours here?"
Si Han took out his detector and handed it over. Chen Ye turned it on and scanned the mountain and sea pocket.
【Energy value: 596 A
Nutritional value: 1937
Basically the same as before.
There was a brief silence in the room.
"Is it really an energy upgrade? How is it done?" Tao Zhe was puzzled and yawned tiredly. He had not rested well in the hunting area for the past two days, so he wanted to have a good sleep today.
Si Han gently rubbed the white jade ring on his hand with the tip of his index finger. "He seems to have awakened his spiritual power. I can see it even when Xiao Ba is not materialized."
“Oh, yes, the owner of the Vino shop can also see the soul beast that has not materialized.” Chen nodded, because he could see it himself, but he didn’t think there was anything wrong at the time. Now he reacted after hearing what Si Han said.
"Being able to see the spirit body means that his spiritual power level is at least C-level. According to Huanhuan's age, he may have just awakened and he hasn't noticed it yet," Chen Ye fiddled with the detector in his hand, "Could it be that his spiritual ability is also very special? For example, purifying and upgrading energy?"
"You're too..." Tao Zhe wanted to say that it was too far-fetched, but when he thought about the spiritual body that could spit out gold that he had just learned about a few days ago, he felt that it was possible and held back the second half of the sentence.
"We have to send the beast core back to the laboratory anyway, so why not send two more Shanhaidou back so they can test them more carefully?"
"Hmm." Si Han tapped the table with his knuckles slowly, his frosty eyelashes casting a shadow under his eyes. "Taozhe, what's the progress of Xu Zhi and Kong Hu?"
"I told them about the situation at the base last time and urged them to hurry up."
"Inform them both that the safety of the people in the base is the most important thing. Speed up at all costs."
"clear."
"Also, Qi Huan's matter must be kept secret. Don't let anyone know about it except us for now."
"Yes." Chen Ye and Tao Zhe spoke in a serious tone, indicating that they understood the seriousness of the matter.
If this energy-upgrading ability is not accidental, Qi Huan will inevitably become the object of everyone's covetousness, and his future situation may be more dangerous than that of the shop owner who possesses the spirit of the golden bird.
“Chen Ye, Qi Huan’s safety is in your hands. You must protect him.”
"Yes." Shen Ye nodded seriously, hesitated and said, "Should I tell him about this?"
Si Han paused for two seconds before speaking, "Not yet. If the lab tests confirm it, find another opportunity to tell him."
"good."
"Boss, do you think someone already knows about this?" Tao Zhe thought of the person who spied on Qi Huan and ran away a few days ago.
"It's possible," Si Han lowered his eyelids slightly, and his fingers tapped the table faster, "but it's unlikely, otherwise they would have already kidnapped him and locked him up."
"Maybe if he hadn't met us that day, he would have kidnapped someone?"
Si Han remained silent and did not answer, but Shen Ye said, "Maybe that person is just like us and has not yet figured out what is going on?"
“Chen Ye, go to the command hall tomorrow morning and check how many A-level or above sentinels are there in the hunting team currently stationed on Waste Planet No. 7.”
"good."
"The situation is unclear now. Before things are clear, Qi Huan's safety is the top priority." Si Han slammed his knuckles on the table, making the final decision. Just because Qi Huan had helped Liang before, he had to protect him.
Shen Ye and Taozhe responded in unison.
"Can we eat it now?" Chen Ye pointed at the Shanhaidou in the steamer for instructions and couldn't help swallowing his saliva. He had been craving for it since it was steamed, but he hadn't tasted it yet!
Si Han nodded speechlessly.
Chen Ye couldn't wait to pick up a Shanhaidou and swallowed half of it in one gulp.
The potter was not to be outdone and quickly took the second one.
Si Han was not as impatient as them. He picked up the third one slowly and took a light bite.
After being left for a while, the temperature is just right so as not to burn the tongue. The crispy bamboo shoots, chewy shrimps, refreshing green ferns, soft fish cubes, mellow animal meat, all kinds of ingredients are softly intertwined between lips and teeth, and the rich juice soaks the taste buds. The seasoning is very light, but it highlights the original flavor of the ingredients. The collision of delicacies from land and sea creates an unexpected deliciousness, and the clear and sweet taste seems to flow with the energy to every part of the body until it wraps the whole body tightly.
"I'm about to cry, how can it be so delicious?" Chen Ye sighed, shaking his head. Being able to eat the real thing, he felt that he was a hundred times luckier than those viewers in other star regions who could only eat the original flavor. "I'm willing to live next door to Huan Huan for the rest of my life just to eat for free."
"You may be willing, but others may not." The potter ate faster than him and picked up the second one with quick eyes and hands.
After finishing dinner, Qi Huan sent Zhou Ba back to call for dinner, and he took a tray to the opposite side. Recently, Quan Hai often worked overtime until late at night, and Quan Qing was embarrassed to come over, so Qi Huan simply delivered it to him every time he finished.
The one who opened the door was Quan Hai who had just returned home. Seeing Qi Huan, a smile appeared on his tired face. He took the tray and said, "It saves me from having to look for you. Brother Man received news that a garbage ship will be coming tomorrow morning. Do you want to go?"
"Go, you must go." Qi Huan responded excitedly, and his voice was so loud that Shen Ye and others who had just arrived at the door of the restaurant could hear it clearly.
"Where are you going?" Shen Ye asked curiously when Qi Huan came back.
"I have to go pick up trash tomorrow morning."
"I have something to do tomorrow morning, let the boss go with you." Chen Ye looked at Si Han as a matter of course. Tao Zhe had just returned and would definitely not be able to get up tomorrow morning. Moreover, Huanhuan's safety would definitely be safer in the hands of the boss.
"No need, there are many of us going together, so it shouldn't be a problem." Qi Huan felt that it was too much trouble for Si Han and subconsciously wanted to refuse.
"That won't work," Chen Ye insisted. "Didn't you say that Lao Pi had a conflict with you because of the garbage collection? Who knows if he would not dare to come to the restaurant and instead play dirty tricks at the garbage dump? And are you sure that he is the only one who has ill intentions towards you?"
Qi Huan suddenly remembered the strange gaze he received last time, and suddenly felt a little unsure.
"It's settled then. Boss will accompany you tomorrow." Seeing the wavering in his thinking, Shen Ye quickly made the decision.
Perhaps due to the photomagnetic storm, the base seemed exceptionally quiet that night and Qi Huan slept very comfortably.
At 4:55, he was woken up by the alarm clock and sat up from the bed refreshed. He packed his things, put on his backpack and walked out of the restaurant. It was exactly 5:10. The space bag was too eye-catching. He didn't want to show off. He usually pinned it to the inside of his lapel, so he brought a backpack to hide it from people.
The sky in Feixing in the early morning was a gray-black color close to smog, with a hint of paleness in the black, and an inexplicable chill. Looking at it for a long time would make your bones feel cold. Qi Huan tightened his collar and glanced at the next door. The door was closed tightly.
Is Si Han still awake? Should I go over and knock on the door? Or send him a message to ask?
As he was hesitating, there was a slight sound above his head. A fully enclosed black airship flew over the courtyard wall and slowly landed beside him. When it got closer, he could see dark golden patterns on the hull.
The boat door opened, and sitting in the driving seat was Si Han, wearing a ferocious beast mask.
"Ying~" The black ball jumped out happily and landed accurately on Qi Huan's chest. Qi Huan was afraid that it would fall, so he subconsciously reached out to catch it.
"Get in." Si Han slightly turned his face, revealing the handsome curve under the mask, and motioned Qi Huan to sit in the passenger seat.
"Here we come." Qi Huan's eyes curved with joy. He smoothed his messy hair and got on the airship neatly while holding Xiao Ba.
Almost at the same time, the door diagonally opposite opened and Quan Hai walked out with his large backpack for garbage collection slung across his shoulder.
"Ahai~" Qi Huan leaned out of the window and waved to Quan Hai.
Quan Hai stared at the handsome airship for two seconds before hesitantly walking towards him.
"Si Han will go with us today." Qi Huan explained as he reached out to the back seat to open the door for Quan Hai, but before he could touch the door handle, the rear cabin popped open automatically.
Qi Huan gave Si Han a smiling look as a way of thanking him.
"He's going too?" Quan Hai widened his eyes in shock.
He was a little afraid of Si Han, and also afraid of dirtying the seat, so he sat down and huddled in the position near the boat door, looking embarrassed, "But... I didn't tell Brother Man in advance that I would bring one more person."
Once the hunting team members arrive, there's basically nothing left for anyone else to do.
"No, he just accompanied us there, he didn't pick it up." Qi Huan knew that Quan Hai had misunderstood, and hurriedly explained, Si Han went to snatch metal garbage from them? That scene was so beautiful that he couldn't even imagine it.
"Oh." Quan Hai felt relieved after hearing that, but then he became even more confused. He looked at Si Han's profile and then at the back of Qi Huan's head. Wait, what Ah Huan meant was that this guy came to pick up garbage for them this morning? It sounded even more outrageous than snatching garbage from them.
"I brought you breakfast." Qi Huan took out a few pieces of steaming animal milk cake and a few bottles of warm orange tea and shared them with Quan Hai and Xingqi Ba. Si Han was driving the airship, so his portion was temporarily placed on the shelf next to him.
For a moment, the narrow airship was filled with the warm and sweet scent of cake.
The airship arrived at the gathering place. Man Ge and the other members of the garbage picking team were all stunned when they saw Qi Huan and Quan Hai sticking their heads out of the airship.
Afraid that they might misunderstand, Qi Huan quickly explained it again, but everyone looked at him even more strangely.
Who is still asleep? Is it reasonable to let the hunting team serve as drivers for the natives of the base and send them to pick up garbage?
No matter how you think about it, this bright and beautiful airship shouldn't appear in a place like a garbage dump!
When they arrived at the garbage dump, the luxurious fully covered airship was parked next to Man Ge's refugee-style airship, which looked incongruous no matter how you looked at it.
Qi Huan had gotten used to the third wave of strange looks. Si Han's expression couldn't be seen clearly because he was wearing a mask, but judging from his calm demeanor, he probably didn't care at all about the looks around him.
Before getting off the airship, Qi Huan took out a five-layer takeout box, which contained a bunch of snacks packed from restaurants, such as cream plums and melon seeds, butter lace cookies, honey chicken wings, pork jerky, and fruit bars, and told Si Han and Zhou Qiba, "If you get bored, eat some snacks to kill time."
Quan Hai was extremely speechless. Do you think the two of them came to the garbage dump for a picnic?
The black ball enjoyed it quite a bit and rubbed Qi Huan's arm happily twice.
While squatting next to the garbage dump, some people would still secretly look at the black fully covered airship from time to time. Qi Huan ignored them and just took positions with Quan Hai, preparing to rush to the metal pile as soon as possible.
After he stood still, he looked around the crowd and found Lao Pi there. It seemed that his original credit score was not low, and he was not kicked out after the penalty.
The swelling on Lao Pi's face had not completely subsided. He stood far away in the corner and didn't look over here at all. But among the crowd of people who turned their heads from time to time to peek at the airship, he seemed a little deliberate.
Qi Huan shook his head. With Si Han here today, he was not afraid of the other party playing tricks again.
The dark shadow of the starship appeared in the sky. The dim light of the sky gave it a bright golden-orange edge. It was quiet and conspicuous, and everyone was paying close attention.
In the blink of an eye, the starship passed through the spherical hole of the protective shield and flew over the metal pit. The fine sand and gravel stirred up by the air waves hit the wall of the metal pit, making crackling sounds.
Qi Huan skillfully turned his head to the side, closed his eyes, and bent his arms to protect his cheeks, waiting for the cabin door to open and the pile of metal garbage to fall to the ground with a loud clatter.
However, the surroundings fell into an eerie silence. Apart from the sound of gravel blown by the strong wind hitting the metal pit wall, there was no trace of the usual earth-shaking movements.
Qi Huan inexplicably felt something was wrong. He tried hard to open his eyes in the wind and sand, and found that Si Han had stood in front of him at some point. Xingqi was standing on his shoulder, his smooth and shiny black fur exploded as if he had been electrocuted, his four legs were stretched out, and he looked up and glared at the sky.
Qi Huan followed its line of sight towards the sky, and suddenly his back felt numb. In mid-air, he saw the hatch of the starship wide open, and a group of big black bats swarmed out, covering the sky and blocking the sun!
