My Magic Age
Chapter 293 93. The taste of hot pot
Although we tried our best to rush over, we still failed to prevent the tragedy from happening.
In summary, we have to say that the captain of this team was a little too greedy. They also wanted to go into the depths of the jungle to hunt saber-toothed tigers, but when they were hunting a saber-toothed tiger, two other saber-toothed tigers unexpectedly broke in. Facing the attack of three saber-toothed tigers, the entire team's defense formation quickly collapsed. The boys in the team wanted to send the only magic apprentice and three female classmates out safely at the risk of their lives. So on this road of life paved with blood, young and fresh lives paid the price of their lives for their recklessness.
It was under such circumstances that Darwin and Lagetis encountered the two saber-toothed tigers biting the magic apprentice Marvin who was lying on the ground. The magic apprentice's entire arm was torn off by the saber-toothed tiger. The other three girls from the Warrior Academy were running desperately with blood all over their bodies. Their psychological defenses were completely collapsed. Just when the huge claws of the saber-toothed tiger behind them knocked a girl from the Warrior Academy to the ground, Darwin finally couldn't help it. He pulled the alloy bow to its full length, and regardless of Lagetis's advice, he shot the bow and arrows in his hand continuously to rescue the female student under the tiger's mouth. The two saber-toothed tigers immediately gave up the students who had no ability to resist and rushed directly towards Darwin!
The most helpless one was Lagetis. When he met a brainless pig teammate like Darwin, he had to help Darwin share the attack of a saber-toothed tiger. Otherwise, with Darwin's pace, there was almost no room for escape and he would die under the tiger's kiss.
Darwin was still a little too impulsive. If he listened to Lagetis's advice, he would not be so seriously injured, and even the healing spell could not heal immediately.
Thomas and I led our own teams, and under the leadership of Lagetis, we found the dying girls from the Warrior Academy who were lying in a pool of blood. After the treatment of "hydrotherapy", at least their lives were saved. This series of "hydrotherapy" made the magic power in my body drop quickly, activating the "mana recovery" in the blue crystal stone drum totem. Under the effect of heating and "mana recovery", the magic vortex in my body began to rotate rapidly, absorbing the magic elemental power wandering in the air around.
The magic apprentice Marvin, who had broken an arm and was in a deep coma, was lying next to a big tree. He was a freshman in the fire magic class and should be very familiar with Thomas. At this time, Thomas had already run over and tore open a "hydrotherapy" scroll to control his injuries. Now all we can do is to send him back to the portal safely, so that we can return to Schloit City safely when the portal is opened in half a month.

"Jia, take a break!" Ying Li said to me.
She has been following me. She was a little afraid to see the bodies on the ground, and her face looked a little pale. There were seven students killed by the white-spotted saber-toothed tiger. The people in our team finally pieced together their bodies. Everyone was reluctant to talk and buried the bodies in silence. I used a skinning knife to cut a piece of wood with the names of the seven people engraved on it: Ben, Mike... Vernon, rest here!
I shook my head silently. Marvin, who had a broken arm, was in a very bad state and had a high fever. I had to lower his body temperature. Maybe I could follow the prescription given to me by old Kuru and give him a bowl of decoction. Relying only on "hydrotherapy" could not solve the fundamental problem. But this requires some herbs. Only by returning to the portal can we get enough complete magical herbs. Most teams should still stay near the portal to familiarize themselves with the situation in this valley. They should have enough complete herbs.
Thomas led their team to continue on the road, and we returned to the huge rock where the portal was opened. Along the way, we met some exploration teams. When they saw that there were wounded in our team, they came to investigate the situation. When they learned that there were beasts like saber-toothed tigers in the deep forest, their faces were not good.
I took the opportunity to exchange some healing herbs with them, and some herbs were given to us by the exploration team.
After such a toss, we returned to the rock where the portal was located. It has been almost a day since we passed through the portal to Xinliu Valley. Everyone has shown fatigue. The members of the team should eat and rest.
Some people have already set up tents on the rock, and we can see that some teams have chosen to return here to repair. Everyone thinks that at least this is a safe place.
Some team members also started to make fires and cook. There were many wild vegetables and fruits in the valley that could be used, but the wild fruits were not yet ripe, so they tasted sour and astringent. There were piles of bonfires on the entire rock. Some of them were made by the expedition team using local materials, picking up some dead branches and some wet wood around. Waves of green smoke drifted away with the breeze, and the aroma of oatmeal porridge made my stomach growl non-stop.
We still had our meal in the morning. We hadn't eaten a single grain of rice for seven or eight hours. The fierce battle just now made us forget our hunger. At this time, we returned to the rock where the portal was located, only to find that we were so tired that we didn't want to walk a step.
We passed by a team's camp. Darwin looked at a fire-gathering scroll lying on the ground with envy. A blazing flame was burning above it, making the water in the iron pot on the wooden rack sizzle. A girl in a battle skirt was cutting a box of luncheon meat with a dagger and pouring the slices into the soup pot. There were also green wild vegetables in the soup pot, which smelled good.
Becky, Helena, Lagertis, and Rita, four girls, began to build a tent. This kind of simple tent used for outdoor adventures is very simple. A few soft cowhides with buttonholes can be used to form a simple tent. Helena and Rita were responsible for tidying up the cowhide tent, while Becky and Lagertis went to find some long enough branches, and Yingli and I were responsible for making fire, cooking, and taking care of the wounded.
Seeing Ying Li and I busy taking care of the wounded, Darwin swallowed his saliva and said to me: "I'll go pick up some dry firewood."
I held his shoulders and said to him: "Just rest and rest, we are still waiting for you to get better soon!"
He looked at me in surprise, not understanding why neither of us mentioned going to pick up firewood since Ying Li and I were responsible for cooking. At this time, Ying Li had already crushed the fresh herbs according to my instructions. She was very familiar with the characteristics of these herbs, so it was perfect for her to handle these herbs.
I took out two scrolls of fire gathering from the package, skillfully spread them on the ground, and two bonfires were easily made. My magic backpack also contained an iron rack and an iron pot, which were also turned out. Darwin's jaw was about to drop when he saw me skillfully condense a ball of clear water with the water gathering technique and slowly pour it into the iron pot.
"I almost forgot what you said before. You spent almost your entire childhood traveling. How could you not be familiar with these things in the wild? But this magic scroll is really great. I have heard of it. Someone in the academy bought it at the small market. You see, someone is using it there. It is really convenient! Later, I always wanted to buy a scroll, but I went to the small market several times and couldn't meet the merchant who sold the scroll!" Darwin said with some regret.
Darwin saw me skillfully making fire, setting up the stove, and boiling water, and then he realized that these things were very easy for me, a child who was used to traveling. I poured the herbs prepared by Ying Li into the tin lunch box, put it on another stove and started to boil it, and then continued to prepare our dinner.
I treated Marvin's wound again, applied some herbs crushed by Ying Li to the broken arm, and then performed the "hydrotherapy" again to make a protective film on the muscle of his broken arm. I touched his forehead with my hand, and the high fever still did not subside. I had no choice but to find a piece of rag to wrap the broken ice and put it on his head to help him cool down and prevent the continuous high fever from burning his brain.
Ying Li squatted aside and wiped the sweat and blood on Marvin's face with a piece of linen. Even in a coma, Marvin seemed very painful.
The three injured girls had not completely forgotten the brutal killing just now. They sat blankly under the big tree, silently crying for their team members.
Many students who gathered on the rocks and did not leave knew these three girls, and they all came up to comfort them.
After hearing about this, several expedition teams also temporarily canceled their decisions to explore deep into the dense forest, and wanted to make plans after they had completely recovered their physical strength. After all, although the portal mountain rock is safe, the herbs in the surrounding woods have been picked up clean in just one day today. Only by going deeper can we find some rare magic herbs.
Marvin drank a bowl of hot soup and finally calmed down. After being comforted by friends, the three injured girls over there gradually stabilized their emotions. We gathered together to talk about their plans for the next few days. One girl promised to stay in the mountain rock for half a month to take care of Marvin. She said that if it wasn't for saving him, Marvin wouldn't have lost an arm.
The other two girls will rejoin their friend's expedition team. After all, this is a very rare opportunity. Magic herbs grow everywhere here, and there are as many primary magic beasts as the beasts in the mountains and forests of the Green Empire. These low-level magic beasts are almost extinct in the Green Empire. The magic materials on the magic beasts are very valuable, and they can also accumulate experience in group hunting in the wild. Since the two girls have made a decision, although they are injured, they grit their teeth and follow their friends to join the new adventure team.
The decision of the two girls made the girl who chose to stay and take care of Marvin look a little sad, but from beginning to end, the girl did not change her mind. I admire this girl.
Afterwards, she asked me a lot of things to pay attention to when taking care of patients, and how to boil the decoction. I said to her: "The decoction just now should not be taken too much, but after he wakes up, you can change to another formula..."
I gave all the formulas and the prepared herbs to the girl.
Helena and Becky had already set up the tent, and they helped the girl set up another tent together, and everyone carried Marvin into the tent.
When it comes to eating, I always walk ahead of these college students. The team members were still wondering why the water in the pot was boiling, but I didn't put any ingredients in it. I started to invite everyone to sit around the campfire and prepare to start eating. Helena blinked and looked at me puzzledly. Her big eyes can always express her thoughts very clearly. She asked me: What do you want to eat!
I thought about it for a while, and then whispered to her: "Would you like to do me a favor?"
Her smile is always like warm sunshine. Even if she covers her mouth, she is very charming. She thought about it for a while and nodded happily.
"Maybe you will be hungry for a while and eat a little later than others!" I said to Helena.
Helena was very smart and knew what I was going to do. So she asked me, "Do you want me to help you cook? But I'm not very good at cooking!"
I smiled and said, "It doesn't matter, as long as your swordsmanship is good enough!"
In fact, I was going to treat everyone to a hot pot of saber-toothed tiger meat. Some spices had been added to the iron pot, which was rolling in boiling water. The team members sat around the hot pot according to my arrangement. I began to distribute plates to each team member, and then took out a can of secret sauce from the magic waist bag and added it to each team member's plate, and then started my performance with Helena.
I took a piece of frozen saber-toothed tiger leg meat from the magic backpack and put it on the meat chopping board, and told her to cut it thinly and evenly. Helena was a student in the swordsman class. Although she was only a second-level swordsman apprentice, her fighting skills were better than those of the second-year swordsman apprentices in the War Academy.
Cutting the frozen meat into thin slices evenly was not difficult for her, who was born as a swordsman. This was just a basic skill that did not need to be practiced in kendo.
So with the sound of chopping, rows of thin slices of meat were thrown into the boiling soup pot. They simply rolled twice in the soup pot, and then I scooped them out with a colander and put them in Yingli's plate. The aroma had already drifted far away. Yingli took the table knife and tried to dip some of the fragrant sauce, smeared it on the tender and smooth meat slices, and put it into her mouth. Yingli's expression was very wonderful.
It was rare for her to be particularly interested in a certain kind of food. When she usually had lunch in the college cafeteria, she would always choose the same meal as me or the same meal as Becky and the others. She rarely had the time to eat what she wanted. Later, when I learned that she was a princess of the Angelbold royal family, I realized that these foods were extremely crude to her, but Yingli's personality was easy-going and she liked to go with the flow.
I didn't expect that the hot pot of saber-toothed tiger meat would be so popular. A whole tiger leg weighing dozens of kilograms was now shaved down to a white skeleton, and finally thrown into the soup pot. Water was added to the soup pot three times before the dinner was officially over. Even the girls who had been controlling their diet to maintain their figure were so full that they sat by the campfire, swaying and unwilling to move.
Darwin drank the last mouthful of thick soup in the bowl and praised: "I didn't expect saber-toothed tiger meat to be so delicious. Jia, when you travel with the caravan, do you always cook meat slices like this?"
"We usually eat a kind of raw meat and dried wild vegetables, and we only improve it occasionally!" I said to him with a smile.
After hearing this, Darwin asked me with great interest: "Raw meat and dried wild vegetables, I will definitely try it if I have a chance!"
I want to say: If you knew how bad the soup of that dish was, I'm afraid you wouldn't have such a weird idea.
