Chapter 389: A New Home
The island of Duoqiao, located on the coast of the South China Sea, is located outside the city of Chaochang, with a large arbor forest, and this tall and straight tree is the most suitable wood species for building houses.
For a warrior who is spiritually united and skilled in cloud hands, it is only a matter of time before he can build a beautiful wooden house with such wood.
The cloud turned into a chain and dragged the felled trees to the small slope, and in the rumbling sound, it was Sister Xiu'er's irrepressible surprise: "Look what I found!"
Sister Xiu'er, who showed her figure, held a bunch of green scoop-shaped fruits in one hand, and proudly raised them towards Tang Luo.
The well-read Tang Luo asked himself if he had dabbled in various herbs and foods in Longzhou, but he had never seen a fruit of such a shape, and couldn't help but ask: "What is this, why haven't I seen it?"
"There's a lot of stuff you haven't seen before. Sister Xiu'er piled several big trees together with her cloud hand, and stuffed the ordinary fruit in her hand into Tang Luo's arms, and said proudly: "This is the fruit of the fat monkey tree, a good thing!"
"The fat monkey tree still has fruit?" Tang Luo glanced at the scoop fruit in his hand and said stunned: "This stingy waste wood doesn't lock all the water in the trunk, and the flowers that bloom still have the smell of rotting flesh, are you sure this fruit can be eaten, don't be poisoned." ”
Tang Luo himself was not very afraid of toxins, after all, the stomach of the void could basically digest anything, he was just a little worried about Sister Xiu'er, although the body of a martial artist in the Mortal Realm was strengthened by spiritual power, the internal organs were stronger than ordinary people, and their resistance to toxins was very limited.
It was a well-intentioned reminder, but it caused Sister Xiu'er to be slightly angry, as if in order to prove her words, she picked the green leaves on the fruit stem and put them in her mouth, chewing it in a big gulp, full of demonstrative!
This childish scene made Tang Luo angry and funny: "Hey, I said, even if you want to prove yourself, you don't have to eat leaves..."
"Hmph!" Sister Xiu'er snorted, stuffed a few leaves into her mouth, and explained vaguely: "Who told you that you are eating fruits! The fruits of this fat monkey tree are sour and astringent, and the flesh can only be drunk in sugar water, and it is these leaves that you eat!"
"Eat the leaves?" Tang Luo was stunned for a moment, looked down at the few leaves scattered on the fruit stem, and said speechlessly: "This is not full, leave it for you to eat!"
Although the Void Stomach will always send out hunger signals, the good thing is that even if you don't feed it anything, it will just keep sending hunger signals, and as long as it can be judged by hunger, this signal will not cause any harm to the human body.
But Sister Xiu'er is different, the energy required by a martial artist in the mortal realm every day is not low, and hunger will not only hurt the martial artist's body, but also weaken his internal organs.
Besides, just these few leaves are a drop in the bucket for the stomach of the void, so it is better to leave them to girls.
I don't know what's going on, since Brother Tian'er became Sister Xiu'er, Tang Luo's mode of getting along with each other can't be as natural as before, maybe it's affected by the memories of his previous life, and he always feels that he should let Er'er go.
And Sister Xiu'er, who heard Tang Luoqian's concession, seemed to be very satisfied, as if she was a little relieved that her little brother had suddenly become more conscious, and even her tone became softer, and she said with relief: "Not bad, there is progress! You pad it, you have to work in a while!"
"What kind of work?"
"See those vines don't have it!" Brother Tian swallowed the leaves, turned his head and pointed to the vines piled together, and said: "I will go out to the sea in a while, and you will weave the vines into ropes here, and you will use them to build a house!"
"Braiding rope?" Tang Luo was stunned: "Will you...?"
"Of course it will!"
Rolling her eyes, Xiu'er grabbed a vine with her cloud hand, walked to the wheelchair and squatted down, and said to Tang Luo: "Look at Ang." ”
Divide the originally slender vine into three, the three stem lines are intertwined with each other, and at the end of the broken line, another section of the vine divided into three bunches is connected again, and the cycle repeats, a rattan thread is braided like this, and the two ends are pulled hard, Sister Xiu'er nodded with satisfaction: "Yes, it's very tough!
"Got it. The uncomplicated technique made Tang Luo remember it after only looking at it once: "How many ropes do you want, and how long is it approximately?"
"Hmm... Look at the weaving. Sister Xiu'er pointed to the pile of vines not far away and said, "It's almost enough to weave those into ropes, if it's long, just follow my one!"
"Okay. Tang Luo nodded, and planned to start braiding the rope.
For her little brother's proactive attitude, Sister Xiu'er nodded with satisfaction and said, "Don't forget to eat the leaves, but don't eat the fruits, I still have to keep the oil!"
After instructing Tang Luo, Sister Xiu'er waved the spiritual passage with one hand and disappeared in place, while Tang Luo stayed by the bushes, chewing the leaves of the fat monkey tree while braiding the rope.
This kind of work actually has no technical content, just like Tang Luo can not only weave ropes, but also manipulate spiritual power to simply repair the meridians of the lower body, and use it for two purposes.
It wasn't until the sun was sinking that Sister Xiu'er came out of the spiritual passage, and this time she really brought back decent food.
A half-body-long marine fish with blue flashing stripes, a streamlined body, a half-moon-shaped tail, a darker dorsal side, and a row of small spine-like fins on the back and anal fins.
Sister Xiu'er said with excitement on her face: "Your luck is really good, if this kind of fish is put in the vegetable market, it will have to be sold for a gold coin for a catty, such a big one, the price will have to be doubled!"
Although Tang Luo had eaten and seen it, he didn't have much chance to see the original appearance of the food, because most of the food in the house was finished when it appeared, so Tang Luo couldn't be sure if he had eaten the ugly fish in front of him, and in line with the fine admonition of asking if he didn't understand, he asked: "How to cook such a big fish?"
"Boil?" Sister Xiu'er raised her eyebrows, just like looking at a bun, and waved her fingers: "No, no, no, if you cook it, you will miss the true taste of this fish, and you can't cook it!"
"What about roasting?" Tang Luo, who was as good as a stream, volunteered: "I can use fire and spiritual skills, and I can make fire with a little dry wood!"
"Hey, you really don't understand!"
Sister Xiu'er complained: "Fresh sea fish, of course, must be eaten raw!"
As she spoke, the woman grabbed a big stone, slapped the big fish on the stone, turned her hand into a knife, and disemboweled the big fish with a few strokes, revealing the bright red flesh, and used cloud qi to bundle the internal organs and blood together, and handled it cleanly.
The bright red fish was spread in front of the two, and Sister Xiu'er, who couldn't wait, dug out a piece of fish meat from the neck of the fish with her hands, and sent it straight to Tang Luo: "You taste it, as long as you try it once, you will fall in love with its taste!"
Tang Luo looked at the bright red piece of fish meat in the woman's hand with an unkind face, and seriously refused: "Please let me come by myself, thank you!"
