35 The Seventh Inn
◎That adult is indeed a bad guy.◎
After a long journey, they encountered a rainstorm and finally arrived at the inn. The little people were tired, cold and hungry. They lined up to receive the delicious food, sat on the ground or leaned on the red pig, and began to eat voraciously. They felt
sleepy after eating. There were still some left in the cardboard boxes at the door. Some of the little people found a cardboard box nearby after eating, and covered themselves with a corner of the soft blanket. They lost consciousness in a second.
Some of the little people even closed their eyes halfway through eating, and they fell to the ground slowly while still chewing.
They were really too tired. After
Monk and his friends had divided the food, there were still some small crumbs left in the pot. They didn't mind throwing them away, and scooped them out with a small spoon, sharing them one bite at a time. When
they went out, they saw the tribesmen lying on the ground, curled up in a ball, and they worked in pairs to carry them into the cardboard box.
Later, they were too tired to carry them, and they were a little impatient, so they just rolled the tribesmen into the box.
They were really tough, and they slept soundly, and they didn't wake up even after being tortured like that. Lu Yao
didn't dare to go out at first, for fear of accidentally stepping on one of the little guys.
After Monk and his friends had cleared a part of the "battlefield" and there were more empty spaces, Lu Yao stepped out of the door. He placed a cardboard box lined with dry towels next to him and put the sleeping little man into the box like picking eggs.
The hunting team sat in a circle around the old patriarch and the elders under the eaves. The hunting team was exhausted after two round trips. They had to stay awake to sit, and they were powerless to help.
The old patriarch and the three elders were not young, and this long journey made them exhausted. Seeing Lu Yao quickly picking up and putting down the tribesmen, they remembered that every year during the rose season, they also carried straw net bags and went to the mountains to collect fruits.
Lu Yao acted quickly, and together with Monk's team, he put all the little people scattered outside into cardboard boxes, leaving only the old patriarch and the hunting team under the eaves.
There were shadows under the lights, and Lu Yao was always careful, fearing that a tragedy would occur if he was not careful.
She carefully squatted a foot away: "There is a hot spring in the store, and many little people have bathed there at night."
Fuxue from the hunting team opened her eyes and was a little tempted. She
had been caught in the rain in the afternoon, and her body was not completely dry yet, so she began to sweat again. Now that the night breeze was blowing, she still felt that her body was sticky and sweaty, which was very uncomfortable.
She had just eaten a full meal, and then took a bath, just imagining it was satisfying.
There were several female members in the hunting team, and they were also a little tempted when they heard it.
But the patriarch did not speak, and no one said a word.
Lu Yao stretched out his hand and spread it in front of them: "You've had a hard time on this journey. I'll take you in. Take a hot bath before going to bed. You'll be more energetic tomorrow."
The words were soft, but the atmosphere was inexplicably tense.
The old patriarch and the three elders all looked at Lu Yao.
Lu Yao crooked his eyes: "Are you scared?"
The old patriarch stood up tremblingly with the help of a wooden stick and took the initiative to walk to Lu Yao's hand.
The others quickly followed. Lu Yao
held more than a dozen little people in both hands and turned back to the store.
At night, the basins used by other little people were still in the hot spring pool. Lu Yao placed the little people at the door, connected water on both sides, and then put them in. To
avoid drowning, a shallow basin was used with a water level of only five centimeters, and steps with handrails were built on both sides of the basin made of building blocks.
To the Nitans, this small tub is a big bathtub.
There is a special water pipe for showering outside the small tub, and soap and towels are available.
Li Yan and several hunting team members have stayed in the hotel before, so they are familiar with the bathing utensils, so Lu Yao doesn't need to explain them one by one.
After coming out of the men's bath, Lu Yao turned to the women's bath next door, where Fuxue and several hunting team members Lu Yao had never seen were taking a bath.
Lu Yao paused slightly and turned around slowly: "Sorry."
"Hahahaha."
The little people behind him laughed.
Fuxue also teased: "Lu Yao, come and join us?"
Lu Yao turned around, and the little people were all arrogant, as if they had caught a funny weakness.
The large hot spring room was originally built for adults to use. Next to the bathtub was a small pool, surrounded by black and white stones, half filled with hot spring water, and surrounded by mist.
Lu Yao raised his hand and gently hammered his aching neck, and said, "Okay. Wait a minute, I'll go take a bath first."
There was a row of mist-covered screens on the side of the hot spring, and behind the screens was the place to take a bath and change clothes.
Lu Yao took out a bamboo basket with a bath towel and a hair tie in it.
The sound of water came from behind the screen, and the little people curiously looked out, but unfortunately they couldn't see anything.
Fuxue hurriedly ran behind the screen barefoot, and ran back a moment later with a face full of shock.
A companion asked, "What's wrong?"
Fuxue shook her head.
So white.
When Lu Yao came out of the bath, the little people were already in the tub.
They were probably all good at floating in the water, and they were like fish in water in the small tub. When they heard the sound, they curiously poked their heads out to look around. Lu Yao
greeted them and stepped into the warm pool next to him. The slightly scalding water rolled up like a quilt, which was very refreshing.
The little people began to look down at themselves, and then looked up at Lu Yao sitting in the pool.
It's not fair.
Fuxue lay on the edge of the tub and shouted, "Lu Yao, I want to soak in the big pool too."
Lu Yao put one hand on the wall of the pool and looked down at her: "Okay."
She reached into the tub, Fuxue jumped up and hugged her wrist, and several little people all jumped up.
Falling into the bottomless pool, the little people were not afraid, and completely regarded Lu Yao as "floating wood".
Lu Yao got up after soaking for 20 minutes. She put on her clothes and came out. All the little people who were taking a bath were wrapped in bath towels and fell asleep.
She saw the dirty animal skins lying aside, took a clothes basket, gathered the little ones, put them into the basket along with the bath towels, picked up their dirty clothes and went out.
The little people in the men's pool had already washed and went out to sleep, leaving only Li Yan waiting outside with the old patriarch.
Lu Yao saw them, walked up to them, and whispered: "It's late, go to bed, and we'll talk tomorrow morning."
If you don't sleep now, it will be dawn.
The tribe leader stepped forward and raised his head: "Why are you here?"
The tribe members said that this adult was kind and gentle, completely different from the adults on the tribe's murals.
The tribe leader couldn't believe it completely, but he couldn't figure out her purpose.
Lu Yao raised his head and thought for a while, and was a little confused: "I don't quite understand why I came here."
In the past, every time a new store was opened, Lu Yao could gradually feel some discord, but there was no abnormality in the world of the Nitian people, so she had no idea about the ultimate mission that might appear later.
The tribe leader anticipated many reactions of this adult, but he didn't expect her to be so rogue.
There was no trace of adult humans in the Nitian continent for a long time.
Her appearance must be a sign that some disaster is about to befall, but this adult human doesn't seem to know it yet.
The old patriarch turned around and walked out angrily: "Forget it, go to sleep."
Li Yan nodded to Lu Yao apologetically, and took a few quick steps to catch up with the old patriarch.
Lu Yao threw Fuxue and others' dirty clothes into the laundry room, washed and dried them, took them back to the big hot spring room, and then yawned and went back to the room to rest.
---
The next morning, before dawn, Lu Yao woke up, got up and went to the kitchen to steam the rice, then went back to the room to wash and change clothes.
When the rice began to emit fragrance, the employees and guests living in the store woke up.
Lu Yao prepared to make rice balls in the morning, which was convenient, fast and delicious.
Let the steamed rice air-dry for a while, and divide it into three equal portions. One portion of the rice is filled with seaweed, pork floss, and salted egg yolk; one portion is filled with beef and chopped vegetables; and the last portion is mixed with crab roe and shrimp.
Lu Yao studied it for a while and felt that there was some similarity between the idea of cooking for little people and making complementary food.
She looked around online and bought some small and cute complementary food molds.
In the morning, you don’t have to make rice balls by hand. Mix the seasoned ingredients evenly, and fill them into the mold one spoonful at a time. When you take them out of the mold, they are just the right size for a one- or two-year-old child, which is about the amount for a meal for the little people. The rice
, seaweed, pork floss, salted egg yolk, beef cubes, and shrimp are all processed in a food processor to the right coarseness and fineness, not too rough to be difficult to swallow, nor too fine to have no taste.
When Lu Yao used the mold to make rice balls, a row of little people stood by the chopping board, curiously watching the excitement. There were
three pairs of little people in the guest room, Iris, Black Thorn, Fuxue and her little friend.
Lu Yao took the condiment dish he usually used for dipping sauce and put a rice ball that failed at the beginning in the middle: "You try it."
Jie Xiang was the first to come forward, pinched a ball and tasted it, nodding vigorously: "Delicious!"
At the end, she did not forget to pinch another ball and stuff it for Zi Ye.
A small rice ball, you pinched a ball, I pinched a piece, and we finished it quickly.
When Xiao Zheng came to the store, Lu Yao had already pinched the rice balls for the guests, and the soup was boiling on the stove.
Lu Yao: "I left some food, our breakfast depends on you."
Xiao Zheng put on an apron and gloves, and began to make adult-sized triangular rice balls with his hands, which attracted the attention of the little people again.
Lu Yao took a plate of little-people-sized rice balls and a plate of adult-sized rice balls and put them together, took a picture and posted a status: [Today's breakfast at the hotel: three-flavor rice balls, kelp and mung bean soup, spicy beef sauce and mayonnaise. ]
Less than ten minutes after the status was posted, all the staff below were "ordering meals".
In the morning, they didn't want to eat at the snack bar or the furry shop, but wanted to eat the rice balls at the hotel.
After the intranet system was officially launched, even if there were not many online users, life had an additional way to record life, and the shopping street seemed to be more lively than before.
---
Outside the hotel, after a night of repair, the little people of the Red Pig Tribe were in high spirits.
Waking up to the smell of rice, without being reminded or urged, everyone went to the door to get their rice balls.
They thought that the tomato meat sauce pasta last night was the pinnacle of delicious food, but they didn't expect that the rice balls in the morning were another kind of delicacy.
The tricky thing is that there are three flavors, and they don't know which one to choose.
On this day, the little people who thought that the food in the inn surpassed that of the Xiaguang tribe began to add one more madly.
After breakfast, the old patriarch urged them to set off, and asked the tribesmen to take out animal skins, oil stones, and sugar cubes. Valuable items were piled up at the door of the inn like a small mountain, as if they hated to be associated with the inn.
The old patriarch insisted on doing so, and the young people were a little at a loss, but there was nothing they could do.
Lu Yao collected the things, turned around and asked Zhuzhou and Black Thorn to send them off.
Thorn Valley is about half a day's journey away from the new territory of the Red Pig Tribe.
There were many of them, and their luggage was heavy. Even with the red pigs, it took quite some time to get out of the border of Stranglethorn Vale.
Zhuzhou drove the green train around to the front, and Blackthorn leaned on the window with a mini loudspeaker and shouted, "Get on the train, we'll take you to the border."
The little people had discovered some strange horizontal fences around Stranglethorn Vale in the morning, and they didn't know what they were used for.
When they saw the green train, they couldn't move their eyes.
The brave ones immediately ran over and got into the carriage with their luggage.
The new train has ten carriages and cargo racks on the outer wall. It can carry dozens of people at a time. It is faster than walking, and most importantly, it is novel and interesting. The
little people soon liked this strange means of transportation. Those who didn't get on the train started to hesitate, waiting for it to go around and take them on a ride.
The old patriarch: "..."
That adult human is indeed a bad guy.
---
After sending away a large number of guests, the inn returned to peace.
Lu Yao classified the items brought from the Red Pig Tribe into his portable system. He had already collected a lot of animal skins, candies, oil stones, and even red pigs. The
lonely yangju and moon god flower each occupied a grid, which seemed a bit extravagant.
Lu Yao took out the yangju, held it in his hand to observe, but still didn't know what the fruit was used for.
Zi Ye was sitting in the restaurant on the first floor. She saw the fruit in Lu Yao's hand through the window. Her eyes changed slightly, and she stood up and walked towards her: "How do you have this kind of fruit?"
Lu Yao did not answer but asked: "Do you know yangju?"
Zi Ye frowned: "This is a kind of medicine, don't you know?"
Medicine? Lu Yao
shook his head: "I got this fruit by chance, but I don't know its use."
Zi Ye also became puzzled: "But the yang tangerine grows in the forbidden garden behind the temple, and only the people of the Shenmu tribe can approach it."
Moreover, the last yang tangerine tree died seven years ago.
The elders of the temple tried many ways, but failed to save it.
The yang tangerine in Lu Yao's hand still looks fresh, as if it had just been picked from the tree.
