Sheng Xia smiled helplessly, meeting Wolf King's knowing gaze.
The two beasts lowered their heads in tacit agreement. After a long while, she looked up at the wolf king with a bright smile, her eyes clear and lively.
The last three beasts went to the stream to wash together.
"It can even stretch?" Aoki stared wide-eyed in disbelief.
Shengxia specifically instructed that the pieces be broken into small sections and all the edges and corners be washed clean, but when she broke them apart, they stretched out such long strands.
"It looks delicious." Yang Yun swallowed, suddenly feeling a little hungry.
"Go back after you've washed up. Don't keep her waiting too long," Wolf King said gently.
The bright sunshine shone down, and a gentle breeze brought a touch of coolness.
The windy season is approaching, the heat will subside, and even the breeze will become gentle.
In the sweltering summer, he lay listlessly on the sofa, pondering how to eat that giant lotus root.
It's definitely not suitable for cooking; the pieces are too big, and we simply can't finish them.
Perhaps, it can be used to make lotus root starch!
I hope it's a pink lotus root!
Hearing the noise outside, Sheng Xia's eyes lit up, and she jumped up from the sofa: "You're back?"
"I'm back, I'm back, Summer! Mark me tonight, I've already defeated the Long-necked Beast, it's really awesome!"
Aoki walked in carrying a section of lotus root, his golden hair fluttering in the wind, giving him a somewhat unruly and messy beauty.
Summer: You were punished for fighting and had to hunt long-necked beasts (herbivorous dinosaurs).
Shengxia pretended not to hear and ran towards Yang Yun and Lang Jun behind her.
The cleaned lotus root has a rough, yellowish-brown skin, while the cut surface is a tender pink.
It's a starchy lotus root!
"Let's use this to make lotus root starch today." Her eyes sparkled, revealing a naive and innocent charm.
Wolf King and Sheep Cloud naturally had no objections.
"good."
Sheng Xia looked up and met three pairs of curious eyes. She was stunned for a moment, then smiled.
"First, cut the lotus root into chunks, then add a little water and mash it into a paste." Her eyes sparkled, as if they held the stars.
I wonder what the yield of powdered lotus root is like in the Beast World?
As soon as the words were spoken, the three beasts immediately sprang into action.
Yang Yun took out two clean large jars and placed them in the yard. Then, together with the other two, they cut the lotus root into small pieces.
There were too many lotus roots, so we ended up using every container in the house.
The sun shines brightly overhead, and a gentle breeze blows.
The courtyard was bustling with activity in the height of summer.
"Yes, that's it. Filter the water several times with animal hides to drain it thoroughly." Sheng Xia leisurely directed from the side, happily munching on a slice of tomato.
"What's next?" Yang Yun's eyes lit up as she looked at Sheng Xia with anticipation.
He really loves cooking; it gives him a special sense of satisfaction and makes him very happy!
"Don't worry about it, just let it settle for now. Give me the dregs from the animal hide, and I'll make you something delicious." Sheng Xia tilted her head and smiled mischievously.
Lotus root balls are absolutely amazing!
With keen insight, Yang Yun poured the dregs from the animal hide into the basin, while Sheng Xia used her mind to pluck some scallion tips from her spatial dimension, chopped them up, and added them in.
Take out another sausage, chop it into small pieces, add flour and a suitable amount of salt, and mix well.
"Brother Wolf King~ Let's light the fire and heat the oil! Give us more oil, let's fry some meatballs!" Sheng Xia said with a bright smile, her eyes sparkling like stars.
Wolf King's breath hitched, his eyes darkened slightly, and he glanced at Sheng Xia with a normal expression before reaching out to light the firewood.
Yang Yun deftly set up the pot, scooped out a large piece of oil and put it in, wondering why she had never called Yang Yun "brother".
The oil heated up quickly, and the plump meatballs were dropped into the pot, their aroma carrying far and wide, causing a commotion.
At this very moment, in the Yafatu tribe.
What does it taste like?
"It smells so good, I'm so hungry."
"Who's making this? I really want a bite!"
In the courtyard in the height of summer
"Alright, alright, Aoki, get up. Yangyun can go get the meatballs now." Shengxia pushed Aoki aside and said gently to Yangyun.
Aoki's breath hitched; the spot where Shengxia had touched felt like it was on fire, burning him painfully.
"Let's eat! Let's eat!" Sheng Xia took the lead and picked up a meatball.
Fresh, fragrant, and crispy—absolutely delicious!!
Aoki wasn't very good at using chopsticks, so he just picked one up with his hands and put it in his mouth. The outside was crispy and crumbly, while the inside was fresh and tender.
tasty!
Yang Yun took a bite, his eyes lit up, and a strange flavor exploded in his mouth, fresh and fragrant, leaving the beast with an unforgettable aftertaste.
The wolf king ate with great manners, elegant and charming, yet his speed was by no means slow.
The large bowl of meatballs was quickly emptied, and several males were still somewhat unsatisfied.
By the time we finished eating, the lotus root starch had settled properly.
"Pour out the water on top, scrape off the hard stuff at the bottom, wrap it in animal hide, and hang it to dry for an hour."
Once dried, remove them from the sun, slice them thinly, and sun-dry them until they crumble into powder when pinched. Then they're ready to be stored away.
After teaching the beasts the details, Shengxia yawned widely, turned around, and went back to her room to sleep. She was exhausted from directing them all this time.
"Midsummer! Midsummer! Help!"
Suddenly, a sharp howl came from outside.
Shengxia had just lain down when she heard the sound and was startled. She sat up and prepared to go out.
Wolf King's gentle voice rang out: "Don't be afraid, I'm here." He hugged Shengxia in his arms as soon as he entered the room.
A warm embrace felt very reliable, and a broad chest gave her a great sense of security.
As soon as I stepped out of the bedroom, I saw Mu Sheng standing at the door holding Cao'er.
When Shengxia saw Cao'er with her eyes closed and her face pale, her heart skipped a beat, and she quickly stepped forward: "What's wrong with her?"
