Since Little Suzaku has this medicine, it certainly knows how to use it.
After all, instructions are provided when you buy medicine.
This agent is called metal softening agent, which is used to soften and dissolve metals.
The reason why it is useless is that it can only melt a few metals, such as copper and iron.
These metals are used in large quantities in daily life, but using this kind of agent to dissolve and shape common metals is not cost-effective and too expensive.
However, if it is a rare metal, such as that used to make mechas, starships and other war weapons, the metal softening agent cannot make it reach the melting point at all.
However, what Yu Lili and Rong Jing need now is just an ordinary frying pan, an iron pan will do, and this potion is just right for it.
The method of using metal softening agent is also very simple. Just cut out the required metal, then sprinkle the agent evenly on it, wait for a minute, the metal will soften and feel like mud.
Then you can mold the metal into the shape you want within five minutes.
Rong Jing was, of course, responsible for the final step. Yu Lili was watching from the side as a round pot slowly took shape. Seeing Rong Jing's relaxed expression, she knew the pot was a success this time. Her eyes sparkled, "Rong Jing, is this pot ready to use?"
"Yes." It was also the first time for Rong Jing to make the pot by herself.
But I have to say that pinching the pot has a much higher success rate than hitting the pot.
When Rong Jing was preparing to hit the pot, she had already planned to do it several times.
Anyway, since we discovered that iron can be hammered and reused repeatedly, it’s not a waste.
Now that the pot is ready, of course you need a spatula.
Let the pot solidify slowly, Rong Jing made a spatula with a piece of iron. The handle was made of wood, which she carved out herself.
"Rong Jing, do you need anything else to cook? You can tell Zhuque and we will go out and get it for you." Yu Lili was very proactive.
Rong Jing originally wanted to say no, but she suddenly remembered an important item: "There is indeed something I haven't found yet. It's called chili pepper, a seasoning that makes cooking very fragrant."
Just listening to Rong Jing's description, Yu Lili felt a surge of anticipation. She clenched her fist and said, "Okay, I'll go find it right away!"
Rong Jing told Zhuque about the characteristics of peppers. After looking at the diagram Zhuque had generated, she nodded. Seeing Yu Lili about to leave, she reminded her, "If you find any plants you haven't seen before on the way, or if you find any interesting, you can bring them back."
Although most of the things Rong Jing encountered in this era were just bigger than before and their features were still similar, there were definitely some things she had never seen before.
Maybe there is some special plant?
Well, or some special fruit?
Rong Jing thought.
Yu Lili didn't plan to take Xiaoju with her this time. Xiaoju has been easily sleepy since she became a child. When Yu Lili was about to go out, Xiaoju was asleep. She took out a ghost shadow vine and placed it next to Xiaoju, then tiptoed out first.
Although the little orange cat was still sleeping and had no intention of waking up, when it smelled the scent of the ghost shadow vine, it instinctively stretched out its claws, hugged the ghost shadow vine, and tucked it under its body to feel at ease.
When Xiaoju woke up, its first reaction was to look for Yulili. However, it didn't find Yulili, but it discovered the ghost shadow vine it was holding.
Xiaoju, who had been sleeping soundly before, had no idea where the strange shadow vine in his arms came from. He looked at the strange shadow vine blankly, then looked at Rong Jing who was still in the cave. After confirming that he had not been abandoned, he lay down and gnawed on the strange shadow vine quietly.
The shrinking of its body did not have a big impact on Xiaoju. In fact, because it was replenished in time after the explosion, its body was actually much better than when Yulili first picked it up.
In addition, Yu Lili is fed two or three ghost shadow vines a day, so it can now repair its body through sleep.
So after swallowing a piece of the ghost vine, it unsurprisingly regained its sanity.
He still remembered what happened in the past few days, so Xiaoju instantly: "..."
He worked so hard to find a safe place to hide, but now he ran back down on his own instincts?
Although it was a blessing in disguise, Xiaoju still felt a pang of annoyance.
Fortunately, there was no danger in the past two days, and since he had become smaller, Yu Lili could only stuff him into her pocket, not into her clothes.
Xiaoju lay on the ground, his ears twitching uncomfortably, and he thought of Suzaku again.
Just like Zhuque has a sense of him, he certainly has a special sense of Zhuque.
When Suzaku ran out of energy and went into hibernation, he could only rely on his last bit of strength to escape with Suzaku. Later, the escape ship he was on was attacked, and he remembered that he almost died.
Because that attack caused the escape ship's oxygen supply system to break down.
He was exposed in the universe at that time, and relying on his physical body to survive in the universe... Even if he was an S-level strongman who had reverted to 80% of his ancestral state, he had no way to survive if he was seriously injured.
Later it seemed...
Did his survival instinct make him squeeze his potential?
Xiaoju—oh, now it can be said that it is Major General Lu Zhoutang—was not very clear about the specific situation, because his consciousness was almost dissipated at that time.
Just looking at his current condition, it is obvious that he escaped and Suzaku is also fine.
Right now, Suzaku is lacking energy and can only stay awake in a mimic form, with very little energy available.
And now he was trapped in such a small body, falling asleep from time to time, leaving only his instincts outside.
He had no doubt that this was not his own body. Although it had not been made public, there had been a report from the research institute saying that if the atavism could reach more than 95%, it would be possible to completely become an atavistic species, and would have two forms in the future, instead of just having two more atavistic characteristics when using abilities as before.
Rather than worrying about himself, he was more worried about the information he had discovered, and he wanted to find an opportunity to pass the information back.
In the past, he was alone and he couldn't be anxious. Now that he has Suzaku, he can let Suzaku go back first. Suzaku also has backup information. He only needs to find a way to find the energy stone for Suzaku and completely activate Suzaku.
I just hope Suzaku comes back soon.
He didn't know how long he would be able to remain conscious this time, and he also wanted to tell his family that he was still alive.
For the first time, Lu Zhoutang felt that time was passing so slowly. He lay on the ground, his chin resting on his paws, his eyes fixed on the cave entrance. Suddenly, he smelled a fragrance at the tip of his nose: "Do you want to eat?"
Lu Zhoutang looked over and saw Rong Jing bringing over a piece of barbecue the size of a fist.
Eat or not... He was indeed a little hungry.
Lu Zhoutang meowed to express his gratitude, but when he heard his own babyish voice, he instantly became withdrawn.
He decided not to let Zhuque tell his family what he looked like now, and not to let anyone know about his current experience in the future.
It's so embarrassing.
Rong Jing looked at the overly quiet Xiaoju, gave him a strange look, and said, "Don't worry, Lili will be back soon."
Lu Zhoutang nodded, picked up the barbecue and started to eat it.
It's too quiet.
Rong Jing narrowed her eyes and looked at Xiaoju with a scrutinizing look in her eyes.
Lu Zhoutang suddenly realized something was wrong and looked up, meeting Rong Jing's eyes. He instantly said, "..."
He tilted his head and looked at Rong Jing. Even though he felt inexplicably guilty in his heart, he tried hard to appear righteous.
Rong Jing suddenly spoke up: "Why do you look a little strange? Are you feeling unwell? Do you want me to check it out?"
examine?
Lu Zhoutang felt like his hair was standing on end uncontrollably, his eyes instantly became alert, and there was only one word in his mind - "danger"!
Rong Jing wasn't just talking, she was really going to take action.
Lu Zhoutang dropped the meat in an instant and jumped back suddenly, trying to avoid Rong Jing's hand.
However, Rong Jing's speed is still faster than that of a kitten, especially since her strength has improved recently.
Seeing that he was about to be caught, Lu Zhoutang's claws hidden in his paw pads were ready to move, and then he heard Yu Lili's voice coming from outside the cave: "Rong Jing! Look what I brought back!"
Rong Jing paused, and Lu Zhoutang rushed out instantly, subconsciously running towards Yu Lili.
Yu Lili picked up Xiao Ju, hugged him, and rubbed his forehead against his: "Xiao Ju, are you here to pick me up? Did you miss me?"
Lu Zhoutang: “…”
Help.
I would rather be caught by Rong Jing!
If Rong Jing caught him, the most she would do was grab the back of his neck, but this hug... he couldn't bear it!
Zhuque, who was still sitting cross-legged on top of Yu Lili's head, also looked down at Lu Zhoutang, but something seemed amiss. Why did the spiritual fluctuations of this cat belonging to its owner become stronger?
Did the cat meet its owner again when it went out just now?
Zhuque always felt that something was wrong, but it knew very well that its master was in a very bad condition, and it could not expose him rashly.
Lu Zhoutang, who was being stared at by it, was stiff and did not dare to struggle in Yu Lili's arms. After Yu Lili finally let go of his forehead, he finally looked into Zhuque's eyes.
It’s Suzaku!
As long as he tells Suzaku the news, he can...
Before he could finish his thought, he felt a familiar dizziness. Lu Zhoutang wanted to struggle, but he lost consciousness after only ten seconds.
The little orange boy shook his head and felt a second of surprise when he felt the familiar embrace. Wasn’t he waiting for his owner to come back?
But it feels so comfortable, forget it.
Yu Lili felt the cat in her arms relax from stiffness. She couldn't help but rub the cat again, then excitedly told Rong Jing the good news: "Rong Jing, I found wheat again and brought it back! You said before that wheat can be ground into flour for other foods, right?"
"Yes." Rong Jing withdrew her gaze from Xiaoju.
She didn't know how wheat grew in the interstellar age, but it tasted good when cooked with rice, and it must be good when ground into flour.
It’s just that there wasn’t much wheat before, so it was more convenient to cook it than to grind it into flour for cooking. If there was more, we could grind it into flour.
Then she saw the small pile of fish and carp.
The pile weighed at least more than 100 kilograms. Apart from the seasonings that he had recovered, the rest of Yulili's subspace was filled with wheat.
"I'll find some vines or something and weave a few baskets to put things in tomorrow." Rong Jing put away the wheat and suddenly said, "By the way, Xiaoju looks a little off today. Can you take a closer look at him? I remember robots usually have a physical examination function. Suzaku, can you give Xiaoju a checkup?"
Rong Jing said it naturally, and Yu Lili didn't think much about it. Suzaku was still on her head, and she couldn't see Suzaku either. She just asked, "Suzaku, can you give Xiaoju a physical examination?"
"Okay." This suggestion was exactly what Suzaku wanted.
However, Suzaku agreed, but Xiaoju was making a fuss and was unwilling to do so.
Unlike the rational Xiaoju before, the current Xiaoju only has instincts. It instinctively knows that it cannot let more people know about its situation. Except for Yu Lili, who really wants to get close to it, it doesn't even want to get close to Zhuque.
Even though Suzaku looks a little familiar.
So it struggled madly to run.
The Vermilion Bird had already flown in front of Yu Lili and said, "Just let it stay on the ground."
It was very sensible. With Rong Jing watching beside it, it didn't want Yu Lili to be examined as well.
Yu Lili: "..."
Seeing how the little orange is struggling, it's unrealistic to give it a physical examination. It will probably run away as soon as it is put on the ground.
"Xiaoju, be obedient. Zhuque is just checking your body. You were feeling unwell just now." Yu Lili has always been a little worried about Xiaoju's health, especially after it became smaller.
And whenever she thought that Xiaoju became smaller to protect her, she felt even softer.
After being soft-hearted, there are more worries.
But she didn't know what was going on with the mutated animals. In fact, Xiaoju's situation was more complicated than the two little ones in the golden-winged eagle's nest before. Without the appropriate strength, she didn't dare to use her magic power to investigate.
I'm afraid of causing further harm to it.
Now that she has the opportunity, she certainly doesn't want to give it up.
But Xiaoju just wouldn't listen.
Yu Lili simply said, "Can you give it a physical examination while I hold it?"
"Of course it is possible, but you might also be included in it." Suzaku said truthfully.
Yu Lili was just about to suggest that she could have a physical examination, but she suddenly remembered her own uniqueness.
Although she is not a complete demon body now, she has integrated a part of the demon body after all. The technology of this era seems to be very advanced. If she finds something wrong... what should she do?
Do you really want Suzaku to investigate?
But it was at this moment that she realized something.
In the original owner's fragmented memories, there would be security checks when entering every planet, but the security checks in this era are very convenient. There is no need to separate people and luggage, you can just walk through.
But that's also a physical examination.
Yu Lili can avoid Zhuque now, but what if she has problems herself?
So should she just know it earlier, or even... not leave this planet?
Because Yu Lili was thinking about something, he loosened his grip a little, and Xiaoju took advantage of this opportunity to run away. Yu Lili subconsciously tried to catch the cat, but failed.
She felt a little helpless, but she didn't force Xiaoju to have a checkup at this time. She just looked at Suzaku apologetically and said, "I see Xiaoju is very resistant. How about this, I calm him down first and then we can do it together? If you really can't calm him down, you can check me too."
"Okay." Zhuque nodded, then asked Yulili, "Can I stay above your head longer? If I need to give you a physical examination, I will consume more energy, and I need to store enough energy in advance."
"sure."
——
After Xiaoju ran away, he hid in the cave like a cat. This time, he was not hiding from Yulili, but from Zhuque.
As long as Zhuque was on Yulili's head, it would look up and would be unwilling to go into Yulili's arms, as if it was frightened by a physical examination.
Xiaoju might have a secret, and Yulili had a vague guess.
It's not just Rong Jing's hidden observation and guard against it, but also Yu Lili had lived with the golden-winged eagle and the others before. Compared to them, Xiao Ju is really... a little different.
Especially since Xiaoju is so resistant to physical examinations.
But logically speaking, Xiaoju, who grew up on a desolate planet, shouldn't know about "physical examinations"?
Even she didn't realize at first that Suzaku might have this ability.
Not to mention Yu Lili's misunderstanding, before Xiao Ju didn't know about the physical examination, although he didn't get close to Zhuque, he didn't resist like this, and even didn't get close to her.
But soon, Yu Lili no longer had the mind to think about these things.
Because Rong Jing had already made a more stable stove, set up a pot, and started... frying lard!
The fried lard is similar to the stone barbecue before, and the aroma gradually spreads.
Rong Jing cut all the pork fat and large pieces of fat into pieces of appropriate size. She put a few pieces in and fried them first. After a layer of oil came out, she put half a pot of fat in and kept stirring it with a spatula.
The sound of frying oil was sizzling, and Yu Lili's attention couldn't help but be drawn to it, and she was also attracted there. She watched the fat gradually shrink and even turn brown, and then it smelled even more fragrant.
Well, she couldn’t describe it, it just smelled very good.
After this batch of fat shrunk by half, Rong Jing added another half pot of fat, and took out the wooden barrel and wooden spoon that she had made when Yu Lili went out, and scooped out some of the lard and put it into the barrel.
Yu Lili stared at the lard and asked Rong Jing, "Is this edible?"
Seeing Yu Lili's eagerness, Rong Jing was at a loss whether to laugh or cry, and quickly stopped him: "Lard is not eaten directly, it is used for cooking."
"Oh, oh, oh." Yu Lili looked a little disappointed, squatted down and asked, "Now that the lard is fried, can we start cooking?"
"Yes." Rong Jing nodded.
Although the fish carp has not been tasted, some people have already tasted the lard.
[QAQ, why didn't the anchor tell me earlier that it's inedible? I've already tried it.]
[…To be honest, I tried it too.]
[Hahaha, aren't you guys too impatient? I haven't even started eating yet!] — This viewer silently hid their lard-soaked fingers and gloated as they typed with their other hand.
[I was just craving it watching the streamer Lili, and I couldn't resist. Honestly, if the streamers hadn't been able to manually adjust the temperature, Lili would have gotten it done a long time ago.]
So she didn't eat it in the end.
In the end, it is the audience who are hurt.
The audience's noises were actually just some good-natured jokes.
There was even a barrage that popped up silently:
[Am I the only one who thinks lard has a nice flavor? It's a bit greasy just eating it alone.]
To be honest, I also...
[+1]
Yu Lili was waiting for the lard. The first batch of fat was almost fried. Rong Jing saw Yu Lili's eyes were empty as he waited for the food to be eaten. She picked out some of the lean meat and put it in a bowl. She sprinkled some salt on it and handed it to Yu Lili. "The fat residue is very fragrant. It can be eaten as a snack. Do you want to try it?"
Food?
Yu Lili's eyes lit up instantly, and he took the oil residue without hesitation: "I want to eat it!"
The author has something to say:
Audience: Actually... lard is quite fragrant.
The carp that honestly didn’t taste it: …
Xiaoju: How did I miss it again! ! [Crazyjpg]
