The hillside was gentle at the beginning. Tao Yunchu also found some fruit trees on the hillside. There was a pear tree and a mandarin tree with ripe fruits hanging on the branches. Tao Yunchu climbed up the pear tree and picked some pears Throw it to Yan Wugui.

Yan Wujiu wanted to put it in his arms, but Tao Yun said, "I'll give you something to eat, don't leave it to them."

Although Tao Yunchu didn't mean it that way, Yan Wujiu felt that this feeling of being favored every day was really good.

Fruits that are tired of eating in the human world, as long as you think that Tao Yunchu specially picked them for him, they will become as delicious as rare and exotic fruits.Tao Yun went out and picked a few more tangerines, peeled the citrus, separated the citrus petal by petal, and stuffed them into Yan Wujiu's mouth.

"I haven't drank any water since morning. Eat some fruit to quench your thirst."

Yan Wujiu laughed while eating, like a fool.He imitated Tao Yunchu by peeling the tangerines and putting them in Tao Yunchu's mouth, and Tao Yunchu also ate happily.

After sharing the fruit, the two continued to climb up the mountain, and the mountain suddenly became steeper. Tao Yun said, "I'll go to the top of the mountain to have a look. Are you waiting for me here?"

"I'll go too." At this height, Yan Wujiu was a little short of breath.

Tao Yunchu's hidden worry became even worse, ever since Yan Wujiu suffered from hypoxia in the woods, Tao Yunchu always felt that this barrier was not very friendly to Yan Wujiu.After hunting wolves last night, or walking for such a distance today, the height of the hillside is average, with Yan Wujiu's physical strength, he shouldn't have started panting.

Tao Yunchu looked at the towering mountain, and said to Yan Wujiu: "I just went to have a look, if I don't find any clues, I'll come down. You still look for pepper trees nearby?"

Yan Wugui nodded.

Tao Yunchu walked and climbed towards the summit at a very fast speed.Yan Wujiu watched him gradually go away until he disappeared, then sat down on the ground.

In fact, he was already a little reluctant.Arrived here, according to the altitude of the human world, it is less than 1000 meters, for some reason Yan Wujiu felt that he was not enough Qi.

Yan Wujiu rested on the spot, and felt that sitting down was more comfortable than standing up.But he started coughing.

By the way, it's a cough.Yan Wujiu found this body's reaction in surprise, he had seen human beings cough before, but he had never coughed himself.

He sat for half an hour, and his cough became worse than before.He really wanted to stand up and look for peppercorns, but he felt weak.

Yes, tired.He never knew what fatigue was before, but now he finally understands: fatigue means that every part of the body seems to be moving with great effort: it takes effort to raise hands, legs, even nodding, breathing, and talking. In the past, he was able to photosynthesize The functioning celestial body has never had this feeling of exhaustion of energy.

At this time Tao Yun came out with a serious expression on his face.He held a branch with prickly ash fruit in his hand, saw Yan Wujiu, immediately asked him: "Wujiu, how do you feel?"

"A little tired." Yan Wujiu tried to stand up reluctantly, but he couldn't stand up at all, after saying three words, he was so tired that he was about to fall asleep.

Tao Yun picked up Yan Wujiu's back, didn't say a word, and went straight down the mountain with brisk steps.Yan Wujiu felt that Tao Yun was getting windy from running, and he was in a daze, although he didn't have enough energy and was very tired, but he felt very comfortable in his heart.

Tao Yun thought in his heart: If you don't hurry up, it will be over.

Just now Tao Yun found Zanthoxylum bungeanum halfway, and after continuing to climb to the top of the mountain, he saw a few lines left on the stone wall, which read: "Three dishes, one soup, no need to eat, Mingling eats happily, and everyone can go out. Yes By the way, just a word of caution, people in the nether world are not suitable for this small world, and they will die if they exceed one day and one night."

Tao Yunchu ran back to the valley as fast as possible with Yan Wujiu on his back, the two He Jun and Peng Zhen had already prepared coarse salt, brown sugar and cumin.Tao Yunchu glanced at Guanghezi and asked him, "Are you hungry? Want to have a good meal?"

Guanghezi nodded.Except for the ridiculous clothes, he looks like a child of everyone, with awe-inspiring uprightness.

Tao Yun sneered and said, "Very good."

Tao Yun put Yan Wujiu on the ground, the latter was already asleep, his lips were faintly purple, and he was breathing rapidly.Tao Yun went out to look at the sun. After they entered this small world, they found that there were only three hours left before the day and night.

Tao Yun went out and called Xianhe, asked him to take care of Yan Wujiu, and said to him: "Call me immediately if there is anything wrong." Xianhe saw that Yan Wujiu's appearance was abnormal, and was about to ask something, but Tao Yun showed his expression. terrified.

"Find five catties of thatch, and bring back five thin bamboos. There is ginger by the stream, so get some." Tao Yunchu said to Guang Hezi, and then said to Peng Zhen, "The more firewood you can find, the more the better." .Find a flat stone slab and come back. When you come back, turn on the firewood and burn it. Kill the chicken, boil the water, and pluck the hair.”

Then Tao Yun ran up without saying a word, headed towards the hillside, and quickly left their sight.Not long after, Tao Yun came out to drag back a big wild boar and a suckling wild boar that were dead.

The three people who were awake at the scene watched with dumbfounded Tao Yunchu dismembered the big wild boar at an extremely fast speed, and then washed the suckling wild boar.Then he stuffed the suckling pig's stomach with thatch, put it on with an oak stick, took out a small jar of wine from his bosom, and asked Peng Zhen to spread the suckling pig evenly on the surface.

Then Tao Yunchu used a sharp stone to scratch off a piece of fat and thin meat of the big wild boar, put half of it on a washed stone slab, beat it with a wooden stick, and quickly beat it into a meat jelly, and added a little salt to it.The other half is prepared with ginger, onion, cumin, pepper, sugar, salt and wine [1].

Tao Yun asked Peng Zhen to take out the killed chicken, open it and take out a thin-shelled egg that was about to be born inside, crushed the egg white and mixed it into the meat glue, stirred the meat glue along the way, and squeezed out a big ball. [2]

Tao Yunchu built a simple stove with three stones, stuffed two thin firewood into it, sprinkled some salt on the bottom of the flat earthenware pot, put a smaller stone slab in it, put the meatballs in it, and ordered Peng Zhen said: "Slow fire, the smallest fire. Remember that the firewood should not be too hot."

Peng Zhen, who had already seen Meng, swallowed and nodded.

Guang Hezi stood blankly at the side, Tao Yunchu ignored him, went to Xianhe to check on Yan Wujiu's situation, Xianhe noticed that Yan Wujiu's lips were getting more and more purple, and his breathing became more and more rapid, he couldn't help but Get up in a hurry.

"Tao Zhenren, are you not busy cooking? Brother Yan, something is wrong."

Tao Yunchu's face was covered with a layer of severe frost, he stroked Yan Wujiu's purple lips, and said: "There is only one way, boy, just persevere."

Tao Yun took out a piece of fat from the big wild boar, and began to roast the suckling pig on the burnt torch. The pig was placed far away from the fire, turning rapidly, and wiping the surface of the suckling pig with the fat from time to time. [3] About a quarter of an hour later, Tao Yun came out to Peng Zhen and said, "Peng Zhen, put out the fire."

Peng Zhen extinguished the fire as he said, and after a while, Tao Yunchu asked him to remove the lid and take out the small stone slab inside.

The aroma overflowed, and Peng Zhen's saliva almost flowed out.Tao Yun came out but said, "Mr. Guanghe, please use it."

Guanghezi was also polite, took the dry-roasted lion head, and ate it up amidst the sound of other people's saliva.

"Is it delicious?" Tao Yun asked.

"Delicious, but not full enough." Mr. Guanghe said with satisfaction.

"It will kill you." Tao Yun sneered.

Peng Zhen was puzzled, and looked at Guanghezi with grievance. Guanghezi was eaten completely, not even a crumb of meat was left.

Xianhe didn't care about the matter here, he felt that Yan Wujiu's situation was deteriorating all the time, he thought: If this Yan Er died like this, Lord Yan Wang would tear him down to the bone, right?The more he thought about it, the more he panicked, and he didn't dare to disturb Tao Yunchu.Judging by Tao Yun's expression, he seemed to have thought of something.

"Peng Zhen, fill the water and boil it." Tao Yun couldn't leave the roast suckling pig scene, so he continued to order Peng Zhen.

Peng Zhen went to the stream to fetch water, and came back to boil the water. When the water boiled, Tao Yun's suckling pig was roasted, and he moved the suckling pig away from the fire source.

He held up the suckling pig on the oak wood and handed it to Guang Hezi, saying, "Please use it slowly."

Guang Hezi looked at the big suckling pig, swallowed his saliva, his face remained unchanged, and began to sip.

Tao Yun went out to the stove, and put the thin bamboo that he found earlier into a low shelf and put it into the clay pot.Then put the previously marinated meat into the rack, cover the pot, then walked to Guang Hezi, tore off his wide sleeves, and sealed the pot with the wet sleeves amidst the astonishment of Peng Zhen and Xian He. edge.

Tao Yun went out to wait for the fire himself, tied two straw handles with the remaining thatch, and replaced the firewood after lighting it. After one straw handle was burnt, he lifted the lid and turned the meat over, and then covered it again, and waited for the second grass handle to burn. After that, he lifted the lid, moved the meat to the slate, and served it to Guang Hezi.

The frightening thing was that Guang Hezi had already eaten that roast suckling pig until there was not even a bone left.

Only then did Peng Zhen and Xianhe feel that something was wrong: Didn't the Guanghezi say that they haven't eaten much for thousands of years?After becoming a human, how can it be so edible?This is not the stomach capacity of a normal adult man at all.

Guanghezi stroked his stomach and laughed loudly: "It's delicious! It's delicious! Brother Tao's craftsmanship is really good!"

Guang Hezi took the piece of meat and burped.

"Are you still eating?" Tao Yun asked.

"Why don't you eat it! It's so delicious! You want to eat it even if you're full! Where's the soup? Where is the soup?"

Tao Yun thought out of his mind: See if I go out and deal with you slowly.He asked Peng Zhen to get some more water.

The last chicken soup, simmered slowly, the sun was already westward after the stew.

The day and night are coming.Xianhe found that Yan Wujiu's breathing was no longer short, but became very, very slow, similar to the panting of human beings when they are dying.

"Reverend Tao!"

Tao Yun brought the soup to Guanghezi step by step. Guanghezi was so full that he couldn't stand up, so he sat on the ground and took the chicken soup.

Tao Yunchu quickly ran to Yan Wujiu, lay down on his knees, blew into his mouth, held him tightly in his arms, and blew in one breath, and then another.He stroked Yan Wujiu's chest, the heart was still beating, but it became weaker, some pink foam came out of his mouth.

"Hold on." Tao Yun squeezed Yan Wujiu's hand tightly, Xianhe felt that Yan Wujiu's hand was about to deform.

Guang Hezi finished drinking the chicken soup, and with a "bang", he turned into a little turtle.Tao Yunchu said to the crane, "Catch that tortoise!"
