Chapter 545: Catching the Colorful Golden Pheasant (Page 1/2)
At this moment, Lin Man suddenly remembered that she had forgotten to record the beautiful scenery of this space for Huo Qingci. She put the remaining warehouse aside for the time being and come back to look at it when she has time.
I walked through the fog and returned to the original space. I took the camera and went in again, enjoying the beautiful scenery while filming. After filming for about half an hour, Lin Man came out.
The clothes in the washing machine need to be taken out to dry, and the floor at home needs to be mopped. After finishing the housework, I have to start cooking for the children.
As for the Lingzhu Space, she would explore it slowly when she had time. As for the big mountains in the space, she also wanted to take some time to explore them.
Huo Qingci came back at noon. After dinner, he took Lin Man back to the room and asked her softly, "Manman, did you enter that space this morning?"
"Yes, not only did they go in, they also recorded it. Do you want to see the beautiful scenery inside?"
"Okay, okay, please take me into the space and have a look."
Lin Man took Huo Qingci into the villa. She took out the camera, gently pressed the power button, and handed it to Huo Qingci.
When Huo Qingci saw the images presented by the camera, he couldn't help but widen his eyes and look surprised.
"Manman, this place is simply a fairyland!" Huo Qingci couldn't help but exclaim, his eyes fixed on the crystal clear stream. "Manman, why do those pebbles look so much like Hetian jade?"
Hearing Huo Qingci's comments, Lin Man's heart moved, and she reached into her pocket and took out a yellow pebble that she had picked up in the creek before and handed it to Huo Qingci.
After Huo Qingci took the pebble, a hint of excitement appeared on his face.
He quickly took out an exquisite scimitar from his space, and then carefully scraped the surface of the stone a few times.
As the blade rubbed against the stone, some fine powder fell down.
Huo Qingci carefully observed the place that was scraped, and a smile gradually appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"Haha, Manman, this is very likely a jade seed material! Maybe all the pebbles in this stream are jade!" Huo Qingci could not hide his excitement, with joy shining in his eyes.
Lin Man couldn't help but be delighted when she heard this, and quickly said, "That's fantastic! I must pick up some more treasures like this this afternoon."
"Although I think it just looks like jade, I still need to show it to the jade carving master."
"Qingci, do you know a jade carving master?"
"Grandpa should know him. I'll ask him when I get back tonight."
"good."
Lin Man thought, if all the smooth and round pebbles in the stream were jade seeds, could she open a shop to sell jade jewelry in the future?
After Huo Qing quit his job, Lin Man entered the space again. She first went to the stream to pick up a dozen smooth and round pebbles, and then carried a basket on her back to go for a walk around the outskirts of Lingshou Mountain.
There were two packets of powder in the backpack, one was realgar powder with a pungent smell, and the other was the mysterious datura powder.
These powders all have special uses. Realgar powder is specifically used to deal with poisonous snakes in the mountains, while Datura stramonium powder is intended to be used to drug golden pheasants.
It is said that the seven-colored pheasant in the world of immortal cultivation not only has extremely tender meat, but also contains rich spiritual energy. If it can be stewed into chicken soup, it must be very delicious.
After a while, Lin Man arrived at the foot of Lingshou Mountain. She held a thick wooden stick in her hand and waved it carefully among the grass.
Suddenly, her eyes were attracted by a scene in the grass - there was a nest of eggs hidden there!
The eggshells of these eggs come in a variety of gorgeous colors, including khaki, beige, turquoise, and gray-blue. How can there be so many colors in one nest of eggs?

Looking at the nest of colorful eggs before her, Lin Man couldn't help but hesitate for a moment. She wondered: Are these eggs actually from the Golden Pheasant? And are they damaged or spoiled?
Strong curiosity finally overcame doubts. Lin Man didn't think any more, bent down, and quickly picked up all the eggs in the grass and put them into the backpack.
Just as she completed this action, a sudden noise aroused her vigilance.
She saw a nimble and colorful golden pheasant galloping from a distance and flying straight above her head.
Before Lin Man could react, the pheasant began to peck at her hair frantically with its sharp beak.
Lin Man was shocked by this scene. Could it be that this colorful brocade has already awakened its intelligence? Otherwise, how could it be so aggressive and purposeful?
She didn't care about that and directly activated her wood-type ability to tie up the pheasant on her head. However, the little guy was very smart and flew down from her head quickly.
Lin Man was not a pushover either. She threw out two vines and tied it tightly.
"You little brat, fight me!"
She originally planned to continue walking forward, but at this moment, looking at the colorful pheasant tied up by vines on the ground, Lin Man decided to go back first.
This fat golden pheasant is estimated to weigh about ten pounds, with colorful feathers emitting a charming luster.
Looking at this tempting golden pheasant, Lin Man was thinking about what to eat tonight.
Should I use the herbs in a soup, stir-fry them, or make roast chicken, fried chicken, or salt-baked chicken? After much deliberation, I decided to have steam chicken hot pot tonight, so I could have two flavors with one chicken.
First, go back and kill the colorful pheasant and clean it, then carefully remove the chicken breast and cut it into thin slices for later use.
Then chop the remaining bones and chicken into small, even pieces, put them into the pot and simmer slowly.
When the chicken soup is almost done, place a steaming tray on the pot, spread the previously cut chicken breast slices neatly on it and steam for about ten minutes.
This way, the chicken breast will retain its best texture.
When eating steam chicken hotpot, first taste the tender and juicy chicken breast slices on the steaming plate. After eating the chicken breast, you can then savor the rich and mellow colorful chicken soup in the pot.
Lin Man was not worried at all that one golden pheasant would not be enough for the family to eat. After killing the chicken, there should be seven or eight kilograms left.
Even after eating the chicken breast and drinking the chicken soup, she can still add some water to the pot and cook some soaked vermicelli, mushrooms, vegetables, etc.
Thinking of this, Lin Man couldn't help swallowing her saliva, and walked back carrying the fat chicken and the basket on her back.
She first sent the golden pheasant and its eggs back to the villa space, then returned to the Lingzhu space. She planned to go to the medicinal field to collect some young sprouts of medicinal herbs for hot pot in the evening.
Arriving at the medicinal field, the refreshing aroma of herbs filled her nose. Lin Man bent down and carefully selected the young shoots of Isatis root, Codonopsis pilosula, fennel and mint leaves...
After collecting the young sprouts of medicinal herbs for hot pot, Lin Man went to the warehouse to get a bag of rouge rice.
Then, she went to the villa space to pick out ingredients such as red dates, red beans, peanuts, coix seeds, soap beans, longan meat, lotus seeds and lilies, and prepared an appropriate amount of rock sugar. She planned to use a rice cooker in the space to cook a pot of rouge rice eight-treasure porridge.
It is said that rouge rice has the effects of replenishing qi and blood, nourishing yin and kidney, and beautifying the skin. I wonder if the rouge rice produced in Lingzhu Space has more powerful effects?
Lin Man began to look forward to dinner tonight.
