"It's getting late, Ancestor, Father, Mother, and six brothers, please stay for dinner," Bai Qingqing said expectantly.
Although she has only been here for a short time, she has already learned about it through various channels.
These various channels mainly refer to Bai Xu.
For example, cultivators do not need to eat, so they do not value their appetites.
But Bai Qingqing felt that the reason they didn't care much about food was because the cooking methods here were limited to boiling and steaming.
Moreover, the menu is very limited.
She didn't believe they could resist having all eight major cuisines of Earth laid out before them.
The system had just rewarded her with a complete set of kitchen seasonings, which she had just looked through and found to be quite comprehensive.
Her cooking skills are no joke.
After all, there's no such thing as a foodie who isn't a good cook.
"What do you want to eat? Mother will send someone to Babaolou in Tianyuan City to buy it," Yuexi asked affectionately.
"No need, I can do it." Bai Qingqing rolled up her sleeves and said, "It just so happens that Wukong and the Ancestor brought tomatoes today, so let's make scrambled eggs with tomatoes, lotus root with osmanthus, and spicy diced chicken."
Upon hearing this, the two chickens in the system space trembled with fear.
The hen practically flew into the nest and laid six eggs with a clucking sound.
Then, still feeling it wasn't safe, he risked depleting his own essence and blood by having two more.
In fact, Bai Qingqing had no intention of taking them.
After all, it can lay six eggs at a time.
Isn't it good for her to raise the animal to eat eggs?
As for the rooster, they are a married couple, why should she be the villain?
“But I don’t have osmanthus flowers or chicken here.” Bai Qingqing was a little annoyed: “Chicken is relatively easy to buy, but I don’t know if they sell osmanthus flowers.”
She still really likes to eat osmanthus lotus root.
There are lotus roots in that lotus pond, each one white and tempting to look at.
I just couldn't resist.
"There are spirit chickens on the back mountain, Bai Hao, go and catch a few," Bai Wenyuan instructed. "As for osmanthus... I wonder what it looks like?"
The first-grade Xuanbing Liuli Crimson Flame Fruit was casually called "tomato" by Qingqing, so the osmanthus must also be another name for some kind of spiritual plant.
"They are small, golden flowers that grow on trees. Every year around the Mid-Autumn Festival, the trees are covered in golden blossoms, which is especially beautiful," Bai Qingqing said.
"Oh, I've seen it before." Bai Wenyuan nodded repeatedly and said, "Wait here, I'll go get it right now."
"Thank you, Ancestor," Bai Qingqing said happily.
"It's nothing." Bai Wenyuan immediately became somewhat smug. "I'll be back soon."
After saying that, Bai Wenyuan flew away.
Bai Hao and his brothers selected the two best spirit chickens from the back mountain, scalded them, removed their internal organs, and processed them before bringing them back.
Bai Wenyuan arrived shortly after them, each carrying a tree on his back.
"This is... the Second Ancestor's precious jade spirit wood?" Bai Hao's eye twitched involuntarily.
This was the Second Ancestor's treasure; he wouldn't even let anyone touch it normally. Yet the Old Ancestor just uprooted it like that.
Once the Second Ancestor emerges from seclusion, he'll be hunting down the Old Ancestor all over the world.
"How could ordinary things be worthy of Qingqing's things? It's a blessing for this tree that Qingqing would even take a liking to them," Bai Wenyuan said dismissively.
Bai Hao and his brothers exchanged glances.
The old man's words make a lot of sense.
"Isn't this spirit chicken a bit...?" Bai Xu paused for a moment, then asked, "A bit underwhelming?"
"There's nothing we can do about it. We can't find a suitable one right away, so we'll just have to make do for now. Later, Wukong and I will go to the forbidden area to find some spirit chickens with the bloodline of the Vermilion Bird and catch them to raise," Bai Wenyuan said.
"Then I'll have to trouble you, Ancestor," Bai Hao said politely.
"What's the trouble? I'm so bored staying in this secluded place all day long, my bones are aching from all the rest," Bai Wenyuan said, stretching as he carried the tree.
"Don't keep Qingqing waiting too long, let's go inside." Bai Hao said, pushing open the courtyard gate first: "Qingqing, we're back."
"Perfect timing, I've prepared all the materials." Bai Qingqing looked up, a smile on her face.
The group of Wukong standing beside her all looked numb.
Anyone who sees that table full of innate spiritual roots, Vermilion Bird eggs, Nine Heavens Divine Spring, innate black lotus root, and a bunch of various seasonings made from innate spiritual roots would be stunned.
"Grandpa, why did you carry the osmanthus tree all the way here? Picking just a few would have been enough." Bai Qingqing was somewhat speechless.
“If you like it, plant it in your yard. It will be convenient to use.” Bai Wenyuan said, choosing a place that wouldn’t be in the way, and planted the Thousand Gold Jade Spirit Tree.
"Trees need to be watered with well water before transplanting," Bai Qingqing said, taking a bucket from her system space and pouring it onto the tree roots.
Even though Bai Wenyuan had already heard Wukong talk about the Nine Heavens Divine Spring, he still couldn't help but feel a tightness in his heart and almost couldn't resist rushing over to gnaw on the tree roots.
The Thousand Gold Jade Spirit Tree, nourished by the Nine Heavens Divine Spring, had its yellow blossoms on its branches turn a brilliant golden color in an instant.
Rank promotion.
"The osmanthus tree that the Ancestor found is really nice." Bai Qingqing looked up and admired it for a while before calling Wukong over with a small basket so she could pick some.
"Qingqing, is there anything else I can help you with?" Bai Xu ran over excitedly and asked.
"All the preparations are done, there's nothing more to do. Fourth Brother, please sit for a while, it will be ready soon." Bai Qingqing washed the osmanthus flowers, marinated them with white sugar, and then started a fire.
Most of those present had fire elemental roots, and when they saw Bai Qingqing was about to start a fire, they all rushed to do so.
Before they could reach a conclusion, Bai Qingqing took out something, and with a click, a ghostly blue flame shot out.
"Qingqing, what, what is this?" Bai Wuji wiped the sweat from his forehead, still feeling a little uneasy, and asked.
The pale blue flames that just appeared for a moment seemed capable of burning this entire world to nothingness.
"A windproof lighter, for starting a fire." Bai Qingqing tossed it directly to Bai Wuji: "If Father likes it, I'll give it to you."
This thing is the culmination of the wisdom of Earth; it doesn't exist here.
It's normal for them to find it strange.
Bai Wuji caught it in a fluster, his voice trembling, and stammered, "Give it to me?"
This, this is a super-grade spiritual artifact!
Everyone looked on with envy, especially Bai Wenyuan, whose eyes were practically green with envy.
"It's nothing valuable, as long as Father likes it." Bai Qingqing said as she put the eggs into the pan and scrambled them.
A fragrant aroma instantly wafted out.
Everyone couldn't help but sniff, and the internal energy cultivation techniques within their bodies involuntarily began to circulate rapidly.
Soon, Bai Qingqing had prepared a table full of food.
Scrambled eggs with tomatoes, spicy diced chicken, lotus root with osmanthus, sweet and sour carp, stir-fried silver amaranth, cold salad with sage root, grape juice, and a plate of peaches.
The carp, silver swallow grass, and sand tree root were all found by Bai Wuji.
Moreover, it wasn't a carp, but a dragon bone fish, but in Bai Qingqing's eyes it was just an ordinary carp.
Silver Swallow Grass and Sandwood Root are both top-grade spiritual plants.
After tasting them, Bai Qingqing prepared them as stir-fries and cold dishes according to their respective characteristics.
