My ingredients are all over the comprehension world

Du Heng walked towards the Royal Animal Garden with a basket on his back and a food box, squatting in the basket and smiling, with little wontons running in front of him.When I went up the mountain, I met a few Nascent Soul monks who came down from the corridor, and they all stopped in amazement when they saw Du Heng crowding in front of and behind them.

Du Heng was also generous, he greeted these monks politely, and at the same time he did not forget to advertise to Yishantang: "Dear fellows, I am Du Heng, the cook of Yishantang, and today Yishantang will provide private dishes, dinner There are braised beef, white-cut beef, dry pot beef offal and other delicacies, welcome to come and taste!"

It has to be said that Du Heng is pleasing to the eye, and his just smile made the opposite person feel good about him.

After a while, Du Heng arrived at the Royal Beast Garden. After several inquiries, he finally found out where Tai Shuhong was.Tai Shuhong is in the largest palace in the Royal Beast Garden, and most of the cubs in the Royal Beast Garden are bred in this palace.

The cubs are delicate and will die if they are not careful. Tai Shuhong has a lot of headaches for this.When Du Heng passed by, Tai Shuhong was facing a basket of eggs, big and small, feeling lost.

Du Heng's footsteps woke up Tai Shuhong, and when he saw Du Heng, he forced a smile.Du Heng held up the food box with a smile: "I brought you some dumplings. You haven't had lunch, have you? Come, have some dumplings."

Under the corridor in the palace, Du Heng and Tai Shuhong sat side by side, smiling and squeezed between them.There was a dumpling plate on the other side of Tai Shuhong. He said to Du Heng while eating the dumplings: "The eggs of these spirit beasts are not very active, and they may not be able to hatch."

Du Heng comforted: "It's okay, natural selection, there will always be hatches." Tai Shuhong said in a low voice: "There are indeed hatches, but there are too few."

Tai Shuhong said depressedly: "These spirit beast eggs are all bought by Su Zhan from outside at a high price, and some of them are of high rank. But no matter how energetic the eggs are when they arrive at the Royal Beast Garden, their vitality will be reduced." Gradually decreasing. I don't know the reason, if this continues, I don't know how to face Su Zhan anymore."

Du Heng walked to the bamboo basket and looked at a nest of bird eggs. These colorful eggs, big and small, were still warm.If Jing Nan was here, he would most likely carry the eggs back to cook Maodan to eat.

Du Heng asked: "Is there something wrong? Could it be that the temperature is too high or too low, or the humidity is not enough?"

Tai Shuhong shook his head sadly and said: "I'm not very good at taking care of them. I hire special people to take care of them. Those people are all hired from other sects, and they are the best at taking care of spirit beasts. I even Doubt, is it because Shenxu Palace is not suitable for raising spirit beasts?"

Du Heng knelt down and held an egg, his aura penetrated through the eggshell, and the bird that had already formed in the eggshell moved after feeling the abundant wood aura.But its movement is very slow, just like what Tai Shuhong said, it has no vitality.

When he was in the village, Du Heng raised some swans, although not long after he picked them up, the geese came out of their shells.But he had seen how the goslings that hadn't broken their shells moved. In the beginning, the embryos in the eggshells really didn't move much.

Du Heng felt that these eggs could still live after being rescued, especially since there was still a pity in his family.At that time, there was a little goose that almost died, and it was a pity to save it.How about... take it back and let Xixi try it?If it still doesn't work, boil it into a five-spice egg and let Nan Nan eat it.

He casually asked: "Are these bird eggs still useful?" Tai Shuhong sighed regretfully: "It's useless."

Du Heng asked again: "What do you usually do with useless eggs?" Tai Shuhong said: "Give it to the handyman, and let the handyman handle it."

Du Heng said cheekily: "Do you mind if I take these eggs away?" Tai Shuhong nodded: "Okay, you can take them away. But can I ask, what do you want these eggs for?"

Du Heng said slowly: "Nan Nan likes to eat five-spice eggs. Anyway, I don't have much energy, so I'll take them back and make them." He can't tell Tai Shuhong what he thinks for the time being. If Tai Shuhong has hope in his heart, it's a pity How disappointed Tai Shuhong was that he couldn't save these eggs.

When Du Heng put the fluffy eggs one by one in the back basket, he heard Tai Shuhong ask with a smile: "There is Xiaoyu tribe by the Linghu Lake on the mountain, do you want to go and see?" Taishu agreed with a smile and chirp Hong, a fluffy bird, Xiaoxiao also likes it.

The spirit lake that Tai Shuhong mentioned was above the Royal Beast Garden.It is strange to say that it is obviously a towering mountain, but Shenzao Peak actually conceived a spiritual lake among the eastern peaks.Linghu Lake is quite big, surrounded by tree shadows. Before getting close to Linghu Lake, Du Heng heard the noisy singing of birds.

Tai Shuhong said: "In addition to the ancient trees at the foot of the mountain, the favorite place for the Yu Clan to gather is next to this Linghu Lake. You can see most of the Yu Clan in the Royal Beast Garden here. Look, it is the Zhu Zhu who just broke its shell recently. bird."

Following Tai Shuhong's guidance, Du Heng saw a group of pink fluffy birds the size of two fists led by the big bird to walk along the bluestone path by the lake.Xiaoxiao let out a laugh, these little birds are so delicate, but also so cute.

There are some aquatic plants growing in the lake, and some water birds are hidden in the plants.In the middle of the lake, there are many precious feathered people playing. The blue sky is reflected on the water. Even though the birds are singing constantly, Du Heng feels that his heart has calmed down.

Tai Shuhong said: "When the first month comes, disciples from other sects will come here to pick out spirit beasts. At that time, I don't know how many Yuzu will be left here."

Du Heng asked curiously: "Why do the disciples of other sects go to Shenxu Palace to select spirit beasts?"

Tai Shuhong said: "Because of face." Du Heng was confused: "Huh?"

Tai Shuhong lowered his brows and eyes: "Shenxu Palace is currently the head of the five major sects. Usually, when the sects are friendly and discuss each other, they always give gifts to each other. There will be a Ten Thousand Sect Conference next year, and there will always be a meeting between the monks when the time comes. Prizes, many spirit beasts are given out in this way."

He sighed: "Sometimes when I think about it, if these spirit beasts can meet a good master who can treat them kindly, I will feel at ease. But once they leave the Shenxu Palace, the fate of the future can only be determined by themselves .”

Tai Shuhong said frankly: "Actually, I am also very partial. I will be reluctant to part with the spirit beasts I like. At present, the best ones raised by Shenxu Palace are these Yu clan, and some spirit foxes and wind wolves at the foot of the mountain. It’s always uncomfortable to think they’re going to be given away.”

What Tai Shuhong said was true, his love for Xiaoxiao and his dislike for Chiyanpyg had already been made clear when Du Heng met him on the first day.

Walking by the lake, Du Heng got to know many birds, but there were too few of them he could name.Most of these birds are gaudy and strangely beautiful.

Tai Shuhong is very fond of these beautiful birds. Every time he sees a bird, he will introduce the species of these birds to Xiaoxiao and Du Heng.

Among them is the cub of the Mipeng Garuda, which is said to be of the same species as Xiaoxiao.The cub had sparse down and looked bald.However, its figure is two circles bigger than Xiaoxiao, and it looks more like a vulture when squatting by the lake.Compared with it, Xiaoxiao is too cute.

Du Heng was dazzled by the colorful Yuzu people, and he was amazed: "It's so beautiful, so the Yuzu people are so beautiful?" Ordinary spirit beasts can be so beautiful, so how should Phoenix, the king of birds, be so beautiful? How gorgeous?

Tai Shuhong's eyes sparkled: "Phoenixes should be the most beautiful demon cultivators in the world. Their original bodies are like the most gorgeous brocade, and their bodies are more elegant than all birds."

It was only at this time that Du Heng realized that he had just spoken out what was in his heart. Hearing Tai Shuhong's admiring words, Du Heng suddenly wanted to see Xixi's true form!

Xiaoxiao flapped his little wings proudly, he is also a phoenix, when he grows up in the future, he will let Du Heng see his gorgeous feathers!

After staying by Linghu for a while, it was time for Du Heng to go back and prepare dinner.Just when he was about to leave, he suddenly saw a piece of green aquatic plants as tall as a person appearing in the water.

They grow in clumps in the water, with flat and long leaves.When the breeze comes, the long leaves make a sound with the wind.It's a graceful and beautiful plant that doesn't float around like duckweed or grow vines like water chestnut.

When Du Heng looked at this plant, his eyes were full of eagerness, and his footsteps stopped involuntarily.His gaze fell on the root of the plant. Where the leaves converge, the stalks are slightly bulging.

Du Heng recognized it at a glance, it was wild rice!I didn't expect to see Zizania here, and it is still ripening.

Seeing that Du Heng had stopped, Tai Shuhong asked in bewilderment, "What's wrong? Is there something wrong with these wild rice?"

It turns out that in the Taixu Realm, wild rice is also called wild rice?

Du Heng smiled and said: "This dish is edible." Tai Shuhong was stunned for a moment: "This...is it edible?"

Du Heng smiled and nodded: "Yes, and at the right time." Tai Shuhong wondered: "Where can I eat?"

Du Heng walked to the clump of Zizania japonica closest to the shore, and he bent down to separate the leaves of Zizania japonica.Tai Shuhong saw the leaves of the wild wild rice swaying a few times, and Du Heng stood up.

In his hand, he held a stalk of wild sage grass, with two or three long leaves hanging on top of the stalk.After Du Heng broke off the upper leaf, he was left with a stem as thick as a wrist more than a foot long.

After peeling off the remaining green leaves on the outside of the stalk, a white stalk with irregular growth appeared in his hand.Different from the slender and tough leaves, the peeled stems appear short and poked, looking tender and raw.

Du Heng handed the wild rice stem to Tai Shuhong: "Would you like to try it?"

Tai Shuhong hesitantly married the watermelon: "This... eat it directly?" Du Heng smiled and said: "Yes, eat it directly."

Du Heng grew up in a water town. With his intuition, he could tell at a glance that this wild rice stem was in its tender stage.

Tai Shuhong took a bite of the wild rice stem. The taste of the wild rice stem was not as crisp and tender as that of the lotus root.

Du Heng said with a smile: "This is called Zizania in my hometown. It is a seasonal dish and can only be eaten in autumn. This dish is a bit sweet when eaten raw, but its picking period is very short. If it misses the picking period, it will grow longer." As you get older, the taste will be tasteless and not tasty at all. I didn’t expect to see wild rice stems here, and they are still harvested wild rice stems. It’s so amazing.”

Hearing what Du Heng said, Tai Shuhong smiled and said: "A few months ago, two vermilion birds fought and burned the wild rice here. These wild rice grew out later. Do you need this for food? If so, You're welcome, you can take it back."

This is what Du Heng was waiting for, and he said with a smile: "Thank you so much. There are more seasonal vegetables tonight, so you must try it tonight. Stir-fried pork with wild rice stems, stewed wild rice stems with oil, and braised wild rice stems with braised pork are both very good. eat."

Tai Shuhong smiled: "Well, I think it's very delicious when I hear you say it." Du Heng made countless delicacy with the chicken heads that the sect didn't want. Tai Shuhong has already seen it.

Walking around the Linghu Lake, Du Heng carried a basket of wild rice stems in his back basket. In addition, he carried two handfuls of fresh and tender wild rice stems in both hands.The leaves of the wild rice stem were tied into knots by him, and as long as he grabbed the leaves, he could drag away a large pile of wild rice stems below.

Tai Shuhong was a little puzzled: "Why don't you put these wild rice in the storage bag? Isn't it easier to walk like this?" At first he thought that Du Heng didn't bring a storage bag, and he planned to support Du Heng with a few storage bags bag.But later he discovered that there was a storage bag in Du Heng's sleeve, which attracted Tai Shuhong's question.

Du Heng said with a smile: "I'm used to it, and I always feel that carrying these things gives me a sense of satisfaction."

Things are light and light in the storage bag. Only when you carry them on your back and hold them in your hands, can Du Heng feel that kind of joy when he sees and touches them.Besides, with it in his hand, he can eat while walking.

Tai Shuhong said: "There is a pond at the foot of Shenzao Peak, and there are a lot of wild wild plants in it. If you need it, I can send someone to help you send these ripe wild wild plants to you." Du Heng thought for a while before he understood what Tai Shu said. Where did Hong talk about.

From Shenxiu Peak to Shenzao Peak, he took the corridor between the two main peaks, which is a shortcut.There is a pond under the corridor. Du Heng was satisfied with the news and said with a smile: "No need, you are already busy enough, I can't trouble you anymore. I will go and see by myself when the time comes, thank you too much uncle."

Tai Shuhong smiled and said, "It's great to be able to help you."

Just like that, Du Heng left Linghu happily with his hands full of bamboo shoots.The wild rice stems by the Linghu Lake became sparse after they were broken off, but after being infiltrated by the spring water in the Lingquan, in a few days, they will become a lush field of wild wild rice again.

When he returned to Yishantang, Xuanyu had already packed up the cattle.When Xuanyu divides beef, he likes to divide it according to the texture of the muscle, so most of the beef he handles are pieces of tendon meat.Only the muscles on the belly of the beef are not obvious, so Xuanyu left the belly meat on both sides.

In addition, there were some stubborn ones, Xuanyu packed them up and put them in the wooden barrel.

Seeing Du Heng coming back with a lot of bamboo shoots, Xuan Yu greeted him and took Du Heng's basket.Du Heng hurriedly said: "Be lighter, there are hairy eggs under the back basket, don't hit it."

While talking, Du Heng sent the fresh and tender wild rice stem peeled out of his hand to Xuanyu's mouth: "Taste it, this is the wild rice stem taken from the Lingquan of Shenzao Peak, I think it is better than the wild rice stem I ate in my hometown. Be fresh and refreshing."

Xuanyu chewed and made a mushroom-like sound: "Well, it's sweet, and it's quite delicious. It also grows by the Wenxin Lake in Nanshan."

Du Heng said regretfully: "Yes, I saw it in spring. I kept telling Xiaoxiao that when the water bamboo and water chestnut grow well, I would take it to Nanshan to dig lotus root and water chestnut. The palace has come true."

Xuan Yu looked behind Du Heng: "Xiaoxiao is playing with Tai Shuhong?"

Du Heng smiled and said: "Yes, Tai Shuhong will bring him to dinner later. Since meeting Tai Shuhong, his smile has become much more lively." Xuan Yu replied: "Yes, this child usually has too few contacts. It is not easy to meet a friend who treats him sincerely."

After returning to the kitchen, Du Heng was busy with dinner. He took the beef tendon and marinated it in the pot. When dinner came, the big pot of beef tendon would turn into white-cut beef and tendon.

Du Heng cut the beef brisket into one-inch squares, and while cutting, he asked Xuanyu, "Where are Nan Nan and Xi Xi? Have you gone to sleep?"

Xuan Yu said: "No, these two people went to play." Du Heng's head was full of question marks: "Play? Play in Shenxu Palace?" Du Heng looked at Xuan Yu seriously, Xuan Yu was not joking, right?

Even if Xuanyu told Du Heng that the two had gone to investigate the forbidden area and the sword mound of Shenxu Palace, he still felt acceptable.But think about it, these two people have been very relaxed since leaving Dongji Mountain, maybe they really went to play?

Du Heng only took a piece of beef brisket, and Du Heng cut a large pot full of meat.He put water in the pot: "Fortunately, there is a formation in the pot, otherwise so much meat would definitely not be able to be stewed in one pot."

Speaking of the stalk of not being able to cook in one pot, Du Heng suddenly remembered something.He smiled and asked Xuanyu: "Xiaoyu Xiaoyu, have you seen Kunpeng when he grows up?"

Xuanyu thought for a while: "Yes, I've seen it. Zhou Lianhua and the others belong to the Kunpeng clan, what's the matter?" Du Heng smiled and said, "Isn't it big?"

Xuanyu nodded: "Well, it's very big. Even my monster shape is not as big as the grown Kunpeng. However, the Kunpeng clan is a bit clumsy when fighting, and they are peaceful in nature, so they generally do not pose a threat."

Du Heng chuckled: "Then... can our grill and pot be enough to stew a Kunpeng?"

Xuan Yu looked at Du Heng dangerously, and after a while, he said seriously: "You can't eat demon cultivators." Du Heng poked Xuan Yu: "I'm just making an analogy, can you? I'm not real to eat them."

Xuanyu thought for a while and said: "No, the pots and grills at home can't hold their bodies." Du Heng smiled: "Sure enough, we need a custom-made grill."

Xuanyu had a smile in his eyes: "I don't think anyone will customize the grill for you."

After the two chattered and laughed for a while in the kitchen, they poured the brisket and water into the pot to blanch.After adding scallions, ginger slices and cooking wine, Du Heng looked at the big pot of beef brisket and said: "There is a poem in my hometown about Kunpeng, saying that there is a fish named Kun in Beiming, and the size of Kun is thousands of miles away. Someone changed this , saying that the Kun is too big to be stewed in a pot. That's why I have this question."

Xuan Yu said slowly: "Du Heng, do you really want to go home?"

Du Heng said with a smile: "When I first arrived in the village, I really wanted to go back, but now I feel that there is a home where you are. It's just that sometimes I think of the two elders in the family, and I always feel a little worried."

Xuan Yu thought for a while and said: "When the matter is settled, I will accompany you home to see the second elder."

Du Heng looked at Xuan Yu with complicated eyes. He had a lot of things in his heart that he wanted to tell him, but seeing Xuan Yu's serious eyes, he didn't say anything.These words finally turned into his nod: "Well! They will be very happy to see you."

After the water in the pot boiled, Du Heng boiled an extra half cup of tea.This cow was allocated to him by the sect before, and a lot of blood froth would appear when it was blanched.Du Heng said while skimming off the foam, "I don't know if Lao Dao and the others are doing well in Dongji Mountain."

Since leaving Dongji Mountain, Du Heng has lost news of Lao Dao Yunzheng Zhonghua and the others, and he doesn't know when he will be able to see them again.

Xuanyu said: "Lao Dao and the others should be fine, you don't have to worry. After we find the Hunting Orb and my natal spirit sword, we will go back to Dongji Mountain to see them. Why do you suddenly think of Lao Dao?"

Du Heng said: "The cattle and sheep slaughtered by the old knife don't have so much foam when they are blanched."

Xuanyu: ...

After the beef brisket was blanched, Du Heng picked them up and put them in warm water to wash them carefully.The roasted beef wasn't as ruddy as it was at first, they turned off-white.The beef brisket is fat and thin, and every piece of meat has fat and thin.Just looking at these chunks of beef brisket, Du Heng felt that they must be delicious when cooked.

This Potato Stewed Beef Brisket is Du Heng's favorite side dish. It is really delicious to mix rice with soup in cold winter.

After the oil in the pot was hot, Du Heng poured the beef brisket into the pot.This time the beef brisket was so generous that Du Heng had to stir fry the beef brisket in the wok with aura.After the brisket was almost fried, he added soy sauce, white wine and white vinegar to the pot.

As the seasonings were put into the pot, there was a puff of smoke from the pot, and the off-white beef brisket was immediately dyed the color of sauce with Du Heng's stir-frying.It wasn't over yet, Du Heng immediately put in the tomatoes that had been cut into chunks.

Speaking of tomatoes, Du Heng has always been puzzled. If he remembers correctly, tomatoes and potatoes were brought from abroad in his hometown, and it didn't take long.Moreover, all the varieties he ate in his hometown have been improved, so that he has big and red tomatoes.

However, not long after he came to the Void Realm, he saw such common vegetables as tomatoes, potatoes, cucumbers, and beans.He asked Jing Nan about the origin of these vegetables, and Jing Nan told him that these vegetables had been grown in Taixu Realm for a long time.

He was thinking, maybe there is a connection between the Taixu Realm and his hometown, otherwise how could he explain that so many vegetables are similar?

After the tomatoes were put into the pot, Du Heng added onions that were also cut into cubes.Fearing that the taste would not be enough, Du Heng also added the tomato sauce he made before.After the domestic stir-fry is even, there are some more red and purple in the sauce-colored pot.

He sprinkled a handful of ground peppercorns into the pot, and when the stir-fry was done, he added hot water that submerged all the ingredients.Before covering the pot, he also threw two handfuls of onion and ginger into it.

He casually picked up a fist-sized uncut tomato from the Shau Kei on the side and took a bite: "Xiaoyu, remember to remind me to turn down the heat in the pot after the incense burns."

Xuanyu was peeling wild rice, he nodded: "Well, are you going to give birth to eggs... potatoes?" Du Heng said that he was going to make beef brisket stewed with potatoes, and there were not many potatoes in the refrigerator.

Xuanyu guessed right, Du Heng left a tomato-flavored kiss on Xuanyu's cheek: "Yes! Remember to remind me later, I'm afraid I'll forget the time when I run the spiritual energy."

Xuan Yu kissed back: "Go, leave the pot to me." Du Heng's lips were like a perfectly ripe tomato, rosy and moist, making him really want to take a bite.
