"Brother Qingfeng, you are right." Xiaozhi smiled and responded to Li Qingfeng's teasing.

He looked at the instant noodles in his hand and realized that his current state was not ideal, so he decided to learn how to cook after returning so that he could better adapt to life on the road.

Li Qingfeng looked at Xiaozhi's expression and knew that he had listened to his words and understood his predicament.

He helplessly supported his forehead, thinking that this little guy was only ten years old and he couldn't have too high expectations of him.

"Okay, if you need me to cook, tell me." Li Qingfeng said, "I can also teach you some simple recipes, such as sandwiches and curry. At least you won't be hungry on the road."

"Then it's Brother Qingfeng, Xie Xie!" Xiaozhi smiled embarrassedly. He didn't expect that Li Qingfeng now not only had to help him make some adjustments to his tactics, but also had to cook for him. Now he was both a father and a mother...

"Nothing." Li Qingfeng shook his head and disappeared.

After buying the items, Xiaozhi and Xiaoyao came to the outskirts of the Orange Forest. The scenery here is like a peaceful painting. There are not many trees, and most of the ground is covered with green lawns.

The sun shines through the sparse treetops on the ground, outlining colorful light and shadows. The breeze blows the grass leaves, swaying gently, making a soft rustling sound.

The air outside the forest is fresh and quiet, with only the occasional chirping of birds and the sound of insects, adding a touch of vitality and vigor to this tranquility.

The edge of the forest in the distance is vaguely visible. Under the reflection of the sun, the dense trees form a light green barrier, making the whole forest mysterious and attractive.

"Let's rest here. I'm a little tired." Xiaoyao said, with her hands on her knees, fine beads of sweat on her forehead, and panting.

Xiaoyao felt the fatigue rising in her body, and her hands on her knees supported her tired body.

She closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and tried to make her breathing return to a stable state.

The fatigue in the body faded little by little, replaced by an inexplicable sense of satisfaction. This section of the journey was not easy, and it was the first time to walk such a long distance.

Xiaozhi looked at Xiaoyao, patted her shoulder gently, and said, "No problem, let's rest here for a while. We have walked a long way, relax, replenish our energy, and then continue to move forward."

After speaking, Xiaozhi found a relatively clean place and sat down easily.

He looked at the surrounding scenery while waiting for Xiaoyao.

At this time, Xiaoyao also stopped and looked at Xiaozhi sitting on the ground, frowning slightly, with a surprised expression.

"You just sit down like this, without a picnic blanket? Don't you think it's dirty?" Xiaoyao couldn't help asking, with a hint of worry and doubt in her voice.

She was used to using a picnic blanket or mat when doing outdoor activities to protect her body and clothes from the dust on the ground.

Xiaozhi smiled, looked at Xiaoyao, and explained easily: "It's okay, I think the grass here is very soft, and frequent contact with nature can make me feel more relaxed. It doesn't feel dirty to me."

To be honest, Xiaoyao was a little confused about Xiaozhi's casualness. As a girl who loves beauty, she has a natural pursuit of cleanliness and tidiness, and Xiaozhi's practice of sitting directly on the ground made her feel a little incomprehensible, and even a little disgusted.

Well, only a little bit.

She also knows that everyone has different views and ways of dealing with things, but she still can't accept Xiaozhi's seemingly too casual approach.

She secretly thought in her heart that she must find some clean paper towels or cloth later to wipe her clothes well to avoid dust or stains.

This obsession with cleanliness is revealed in Xiaoyao's details. Her hands gently touched the hem of her clothes from time to time to ensure that they were as clean as possible.

Her eyes drifted to Xiaozhi from time to time, and she silently hoped that he would realize this and at least pay attention to personal hygiene in such occasions.

Without paying attention to Xiaoyao's expression, Xiaozhi said excitedly: "Then... eat instant noodles!"

After that, he happily took out the prepared instant noodles, full of love for this simple delicacy.

When opening the instant noodles package, Xiaozhi suddenly stopped and turned to look at Xiaoyao, waiting for her response.

Being stared at so intently by Xiaozhi, Xiaoyao tilted her head slightly, a little confused: "What, what's wrong?"

She didn't quite understand why Xiaozhi stared at her like that,She felt a little uncomfortable.

"Can you let your Chickadee use the Spark move?" Xiaozhi suddenly asked with a hint of expectation in his voice.

He continued: "I don't have any fire Pokémon. If your Chickadee can use the Spark move, I can eat instant noodles."

Xiaoyao: ? ? ?

No, how did you become so strong like this!

After hearing this, Xiaoyao opened her mouth slightly in surprise, hesitating and not answering immediately.

Being asked so directly by Xiaozhi at this time, she felt a little unprepared.

In the end, she just nodded slightly and answered softly: "Yes..."

Xiaozhi and Pikachu found some dry firewood in the wild and piled it on the ground.

Xiaoyao looked at them and said: "Chickadee, use Spark."

Chickadee swung its body and emitted a brilliant flame.

The flame jumped in the air, illuminating the surrounding environment, and also brought a warm breath.

Seeing the flames burning, Xiaozhi quickly picked up the kettle and poured the water in the kettle into the instant noodle bucket.

He then put all the instant noodles into the bucket and prepared to enjoy a delicious steaming instant noodle.

"Geng Gui, please help heat it up." Xiaozhi turned to the Geng Gui beside him and said.

The flames were still burning, and the instant noodle bucket was glowing under the flames.

Xiaozhi considered that the fire was too fierce, so he asked Geng Gui how to heat the instant noodles at an appropriate distance.

Geng Gui smiled and nodded, and used his ghost skills to suspend the instant noodle bucket at an appropriate height from the flames, allowing the instant noodles to slowly boil in the hot air.

The aroma of instant noodles began to spread in the air, and Xiaozhi and Xiaoyao both smelled this tempting aroma.

Xiaoyao's nose moved slightly, she sniffed the aroma around her, her stomach made a gurgling sound, and she said embarrassedly: "It seems that eating instant noodles once in a while is really good..."
