Chapter 200 Extra
Autumn and winter come early in Dongji Mountain. Standing on the mountain and looking down, the forest at the foot of the mountain is as colorful as a painting, but the trees on the top of the mountain are already covered with a layer of snow.
Yun Zheng stood on the platform in front of the cave and looked at the forest east of Dongji Mountain. The leaves of the persimmon tree at the door had all fallen off. Only the bright red fruits stubbornly clung to the branches in the frost and snow. Some birds that couldn't find food relied on these fruits to survive in the winter.
Although it was icy and snowy outside the cave, there was a barrier inside the cave. There was no shelter outside, so the warm sunlight streamed in from the cave, making Yun Zheng drowsy.
However, he couldn't sleep, not because he wanted to watch Taowu Dao, but because Chonghua was making so much noise that he couldn't sleep.
When Yun Zheng sighed for the twelfth time this morning, Chonghua came over on the snow. He jumped onto the platform and skillfully poured the contents of the storage bag on his waist onto the ground: "Yun Zheng, I leave it to you. I saw a large group over there. I'll go catch a few more."
More than a dozen spirit sheep fell out of the storage bag, in addition to deer and bison. The platform was filled tightly with these animals that were still emitting heat, leaving no place to stand.
Yun Zheng said with a straight face: "Is that enough? This is too much."
Chonghua glared at Yun Zheng fiercely: "Enough? What nonsense are you talking about?"
Yun Zheng pointed at the fat sheep under his feet and said, "Look at these two, do they look like grilled lamb chops? Look at these two, do they look like water basin mutton? And this bison, isn't it chewy and delicious beef jerky in your eyes? And these, don't you see roujiamo, grilled meat skewers, and fried pork chops? You actually think I made too much? Yun Zheng, I think you need to go to the Fox God to check your brain."
Yun Zheng looked at the erratic Chonghua with a frown on his face: "Is food the only thing on your mind?"
Chonghua was so happy because he received a message from Xuanyu that Xuanyu and his friends would take Du Heng to Dongji Mountain to live for a while. After receiving the message, Chonghua and Yun Zheng began to prepare.
Chonghua widened his eyes in surprise: "Nonsense, what else can I think about at this moment if not food?"
Yun Zheng said slowly, "Have you cleaned your cave?"
Yun Zheng cleaned the cave house thoroughly, and prepared formations and barriers in the room where Du Heng and his friends were going to live. He also picked orchids from the foot of the mountain for decoration. Chonghua's reaction was completely different from Yun Zheng's. He ran out early in the morning to capture the spirit beasts that were leisurely wandering in the mountains, thinking only of the feast that Du Heng would prepare after he arrived.
Hearing the word "clean", Chonghua was stunned. Unlike the self-disciplined Yunzheng, Chonghua was used to being casual. His cave was a mess like a garbage dump. If he cleaned it carefully, he would definitely find the bones he had chewed in the first year he moved in.
The only clean part of his room was the area where he lay in his monster form; the rest of the room was piled with garbage.
He smiled awkwardly and said, "Your cave is so big, it should be big enough for Du Heng and the others to live in. They probably won't go to my place."
Yun Zheng reminded: "Feng Jun and his friends may not necessarily go there to live, but can you guarantee that they won't go and take a look? What do you think?"
Chonghua scratched his hair in distress: "Ahhhhh...what should I do?" His eyes rolled around, and then he rushed to Yun Zheng's side eagerly: "Yun Zheng, how about you help me clean up? Everyone knows that you clean up things quickly and well."
Yun Zheng sneered, "You call that cleaning up your cave? That's called opening up the wasteland." Chonghua muttered, "It's not that serious..."
Yun Zhengyu patted Chonghua's shoulder earnestly and said, "I suggest you go back and clean up your nest and stop hunting. What you hunt is enough for us..."
Before Yun Zheng finished speaking, Chonghua suddenly raised his voice and started nagging: "Now you complain that I hunt too much, but you eat less when you eat? Why didn't I realize that you are like this before? Good job, Yun Zheng, you are still acting like a good kid after getting the advantage. I catch the prey, and you ask Du Heng to cook the dishes, and you enjoy the finished products. I am responsible for everything, right? I asked you to help me clean up the cave, but you refused. Are we still good friends?"
Yun Zheng was suddenly overwhelmed. He begged for mercy: "I understand. Can't I handle it?"
Chonghua smiled, revealing his white teeth: "It would have been great if you had done this earlier. By the way, if you can't handle it, go find Lao Dao. I just saw him at the foot of the mountain."
Yun Zheng said seriously: "Okay, I understand."
After Chonghua got a satisfactory answer, he ran towards the north again on the snow. Yun Zheng looked at his jumping back and sighed for the thirteenth time today. Thinking of Chonghua's cave, he felt a headache.
Before Yun Zheng finished sighing, Lao Dao led his big yellow dog up the mountain along the path. Seeing the pile of prey in front of the cave, Lao Dao narrowed his eyes and smiled: "Oh, it's a big harvest!"
Yun Zheng picked at the sheep and said, "It's just in time, and it's still hot. You love it the most." Lao Dao laughed, "Of course, I won't be polite then."
The big yellow dog walked to the side of the spirit sheep that had just died, opened its mouth and showed its sharp teeth, biting the spirit sheep's neck. Blood soaked the yellow dog's teeth, and only a slight swallowing sound was heard. After a while, all the blood in the spirit sheep's body was sucked away by the yellow dog.
Du Heng had always praised Lao Dao for the cleanness of his slaughtered animals, saying that there was not much blood when they were cooked. He had no idea that Lao Dao's true form was Chaos, which was considered a vicious beast in ancient times and liked to suck blood. Most of the prey Lao Dao had given Du Heng had been sucked of blood by him.
After sucking a circle of blood, Lao Dao shook his body refreshed and said, "Today is a really good day. I encountered something good right after arriving at Dongji Mountain."
Yun Zheng pointed inside the barrier and said, "There are still a lot of them inside. Chonghua is crazy, and he wants me to deal with these things. You know, I'm good at killing people, but I'm really not good at dealing with these."
Lao Dao promised: "I will do it, you just sit aside and watch." Yun Zheng rarely showed a bitter smile: "I'm afraid I can't sit down, I still have to help Chonghua clean up his cave."
Lao Dao was silent for a while. He patted Yun Zheng's shoulder sympathetically and said, "Thank you for your hard work."
When the Zhou brothers arrived, they saw rows of prey neatly hung on hooks, and Lao Dao was skillfully gutting the prey.
Zhou Lianhua was amazed: "General Hun Dun's knife skills are amazing!"
Lao Dao rubbed his head in a naive way and said: "I can't compare to General Zhou's strength to pull a mountain. If we talk about knife skills, my knife skills are far inferior to Lord Long's."
At nightfall, a strong wind blew up on the mountain, and the howling wind blew through the woods, making a ghostly howling sound. If someone got lost in Dongji Mountain at this time, they would be frozen to death by the sudden drop in temperature.
The night pearls were lit in Yun Zheng's cave, and a fire was lit in the hall on the bottom floor. Even though the wind was howling outside, the cave was warm as spring. Several generals took turns to go out and look to the east. It was reasonable that Du Heng and his men would be there soon.
Chonghua had already stuffed the blood-sucking vines in the stove, waiting for Du Heng and the others to arrive so that everyone could start cooking and eat! He waited from dawn to dusk, and he had already lost count of how many times he had run up to see Du Heng and the others.
When Chonghua ran down from the top platform again, his depressed expression told everyone the answer.
Zhou Xiyue comforted him, "General Chonghua, don't be anxious. Maybe Long Jun and the others won't arrive until tomorrow." Chonghua groaned, "Jinghong's information is never wrong. Besides, Long Jun has already made an appointment with me. How can he come only tomorrow..."
Yun Zheng sighed, "I still have some beef jerky that Mr. Du made in my refrigerator." Chonghua felt wronged, "Can you get rid of me with beef jerky?"
At this time, the sound of a dog barking came over, and Lao Dao said, "Here he comes!" Hearing this, Chonghua jumped up with a howl and said, "Du Heng is here!"
The 鯄 beast flew across the night sky, leaving behind a trail of blue light. Under the expectant gaze of Chonghua and the others, it slowly flew in front of everyone, pulling the frame. This time, the 鯄 beast did not abandon the frame to run to play in the water. It walked into the cave with its hooves clattering, and then shook off the frost on its scales.
The curtain opened, and the first to jump down were Xiaoxiao and Xiaoyu. As soon as Xiaoxiao came down, she said to Chonghua and the others anxiously: "Quick! Quick! My uncle is injured!"
Upon hearing the news that Feng Gui was injured, the generals suddenly became alert. Did someone attack Feng Jun without a care for his life? ! Or did they encounter a monster attack on the way here? !
Yun Zheng was just about to activate the cave's strongest defensive barrier when he heard Feng Gui's weak voice from behind the curtain: "Don't listen to Xiaoxiao's nonsense, I'm fine... um..."
Du Heng didn't know whether to laugh or cry, so he pulled open the curtain. He explained to the generals' serious faces, "Well, don't be nervous. Xixi is fine. She just drank the hot pot base I just made this afternoon out of greed. Now she has a stomachache."
Feng Gui was quickly carried out by Xuan Yu. His face turned pale and he said weakly, "You are too cruel."
Xiaoyu said calmly: "What nonsense are you talking about? I advised you when you were drinking the hot pot soup base, and you were the one who said it was okay."
Feng Gui gritted his teeth: "If I had known that you replaced the ordinary pepper with the devil pepper, do you think I would drink it?"
Jing Nan frowned and urged from behind: "Hurry up and lie down, don't embarrass yourself." Feng Gui felt wronged: "At this time, shouldn't you help me condemn Xiaoyu?"
It was too late to say anything now. Feng Gui covered her stomach and curled up into a ball: "I will remember you, Xuan Yu..."
Xuan Yu covered Feng Gui with a blanket and said, "Don't talk nonsense. If you can't remember me, Nan Nan will prescribe you a prescription. Just drink the porridge obediently tonight. I will make it for you later."
Feng Gui grabbed Jing Nan's sleeve and said, "Watch that bastard, don't let him release the devil pepper again." Jing Nan said unhappily, "Just lie there! You jumped into the pit by yourself, I can't stop you, you deserve it!"
Downstairs, Dad Du and his friends received a warm welcome from the generals. After hearing that they were good cooks, Chonghua wished he could turn into a storage bag on Dad Du's waist.
When Du Heng came down, he saw that the pot was half full of water. Dad Du was rolling up his sleeves and working with Mom Du to cut the mutton. Du Heng smiled and said, "Mom and Dad, what are we having for dinner tonight?"
Father Du said loudly: "Let's make mutton hotpot!"
Du Heng particularly likes the hot pot made by his father. The hot pot is made with mutton soup as the base, and thickly sliced cooked mutton is added. As long as the water in the pot boils, you can eat the meat and drink the soup. In addition, you can also blanch vegetables in it. Drinking a bowl of hot pot in the winter warms your stomach and heart.
Du Heng gave a thumbs up: "Great!"
Feng Gui's voice was filled with resentment: "Let me out, I can still eat mutton hotpot."
Xuan Yu raised a gentle arc at the corner of his mouth: "Xiaoxiao, bring a peach to your uncle."
