Chapter 397: Smoking Mountain
Chapter 397: Smoking Mountain
The cold wind from the high altitude blew on the top of Tianheng Mountain, which was nearly thousands of meters high. At this moment, the people who had finished the tacit understanding competition had divided their respective tasks and started to prepare lunch.
At this time, Ye Li opened the box and took out various kitchen utensils from it. Yaoyao and the other two children had already hidden in the prepared talisman paper cave space, praying that Ye would not find them, cancel the plan, and send them back.
However, Ye Li still frowned, which made the two little guys hiding in the Talisman Paper Cave nervous.
"Hey? Why is there a smell of Mora meat here? Although it is very faint, I don't remember making this dish and putting Mora meat here."
Ye Li looked puzzled as he observed the environment inside the box. This action made Yaoyao, a living person, feel her heartbeat quicken, while Qiqi became a little calmer.
Of course, it’s just a tiny bit.
After all, Ye Li had checked his physical condition, and with the nourishment of immortal power, his body had long been full of vitality. Although it was not as vivid as a real living person, it was very close.
So Yaoyao saw the micro-expression on Qiqi's slightly blushing face, but because Ye was still rummaging through the box, she could only suppress her surprise at Qiqi's micro-expression.
Ye Li observed for a while, and seeing no changes, he withdrew his hand and closed the box, with a barely noticeable smile appearing at the corner of his mouth.
The box fell into darkness again. At this moment, Yaoyao took a deep breath and walked out of the talisman paper cave. Qiqi followed closely and grabbed the back corner of Yaoyao's clothes.
Outside the box, Ye Li put away all the things he had prepared, and placed the shelf on the flat top of Tianheng Mountain. He picked up the seasoning on the table next to him, looked at the other people who had set up their tents, and said:
"What do you want for lunch? I can make basic dishes."
"Barbecued pork, can Doctor Ye cook barbecued pork?"
When Jiaming heard Ye Li say this, he immediately asked his question. At the same time, Xingqiu also suggested not to order the dish with carrots, and Chongyun asked for it as long as it was not spicy.
Listening to the three people's words and requests, Ye Li casually threw out three more pots and racks, and put the firewood on the fire, and said:
"I mean that you can cook basic dishes. Your conditions are too harsh. Why don't you just do it yourself and have enough food and clothing? Just treat this morning's joke as a reality."
"Alas, in the end, we still have to move."
"Oh, don't be depressed, Master Xingqiu. I saw with my own eyes that there are carrots in the ingredients. If you don't want to be malnourished, you should eat more."
"Okay, this trip is not far, and if we don't get enough nutrition and balance, it will be a problem. Besides, carrots don't have to be made into strange shapes, they can be eaten normally by frying, stir-frying or boiling."
After being persuaded by Ye Li and Jia Ming, Xing Qiu finally compromised. He took the carrot that he wanted to throw away and threw it into the pot.
In this way, under the leadership of Ye Li, several people sitting in Tianheng Mountain started their own cooking work, trying to see who could cook the best dishes during lunch.
Ye Li still used the old routine, kneading dough, practicing Tai Chi, and preparing a pot of soup. It was obvious that he was going to make a bowl of noodle soup.
Although Xingqiu loves chivalry and novels, he will also cook for himself when there are few people in the Chamber of Commerce. Sometimes he will follow Chongyun to run around, and dry food and other things are prepared on the spot. From his experience as a chef, his skills are quite good.
Compared to Xingqiu's meticulousness, Chongyun didn't have much experience. He was able to make a few dishes that he was good at thanks to the complete ingredients prepared by Ye Li, otherwise he really wouldn't be able to make a single dish.
Jiaming's approach is very simple, focusing on high-end ingredients, often using ordinary cooking methods. The method of preparing several servings of barbecued pork is very smooth.
The four of them looked at each other's cooking methods, and their eyes all looked towards the box in unison, with smiles on their lips, obviously thinking of something interesting.
As time passed, some travelers or businessmen passing by Tianheng Mountain all looked up at the four streams of white smoke rising above them, and couldn't help but talk about it.
"Hey, why is there smoke coming out of Tianheng Mountain? Could there be an immortal there?"
"Maybe a few trees on the top of the mountain are burning. Do we need to report to the Qianyan Army to come over and take a look?"
"Don't you think it's strange? Why can I smell a fragrance?"
"Hiss~, don't tell me, I really smell a fragrance."
"Hey, hey, hey, how can the fragrance spread so far? Do you think it's an immortal cooking?"
There was a lot of discussion below, but Ye Li and the others were not paying attention to what was happening at the foot of the mountain. The dishes they had just prepared were already done, and Ye Li also covered the pot to prevent the noodle soup and the noodles in it from getting cold because of the cold wind.
Just like that, Ye Li took the lead in finishing the cooking and sat down near the tent that Jiaming had set up. He watched the other three people preparing the dishes and looked at the blue sky and white clouds. He could see the prosperous Liyue Harbor and the ocean with his side profile.
It can only be said that the top of Tianheng Mountain is indeed an excellent scenic spot. You can see the entire Liyue Harbor at a glance, and you can see more than Yujing Terrace.
Ye Li could clearly see the outline of Guyun Pavilion from this position. He couldn't help but take out his camera to take a picture and find a chance to show it to Hu Tao.
While Ye Li was waiting, in the Wanmin Hall of Liyue Harbor, Zhongli looked helplessly at the smiling Jiu Mengzi in front of him, and said with a little surprise:
"Why don't you go and take a look at the pure wind element that appeared in Mondstadt? From the direction we can confirm, your friend among the followers should have woken up."
"Ah, you don't have to worry about that. Tevarin is not a dragon that can be defeated so easily. After all, he still needs some time to grow before he gets the power of the wind. This can be considered as a kind of training for him."
Wendy used the old routine to deal with the rather rigid old man in front of her. She picked up a glass of wine and drank it in gulps. She felt refreshed and somewhat happy that her friend had awakened.
Zhongli poured himself a cup of tea and stopped trying to dissuade Wendy from going back. He had a certain understanding of this guy's freedom since the first day they met, and now he was just going along with him out of habit.
Moreover, they are the oldest among the seven current rulers, and it is something worth cherishing to have an old friend come and spend some time with them.
Zhongli thought about it and reached out to take out a leaf from the space of God's Eye. This thing was given to him by Nashida to record the scenery of other countries. Wendy should also know some of the information on it.
It’s not that he, Zhong, forgot to tell Wendy about this, but that he considered a lot when compiling the information.
For Wendy, who was very good at slacking off and having fun, the fact that the God of Grass was imprisoned by his people was a big news. Without his mouth processing it a little, it would ruin his reputation as a bard.
So Zhongli still kept a little bit of information, so that he could use the power of the wind to help Nashida get rid of some problems in her predicament, and at the same time give some work to a guy who didn't do his job properly.
Wendy had already noticed the leaf in Zhongli's hand, and from the power it brought, he knew that it was an object of another god, and its characteristics were also very obvious. Feng would also tell him what the meaning of it was.
At this moment, the two gods began a silent communication in the Wanmin Hall. Both of them had serious expressions, but the guys who were eating did not stop, which made a waiter passing by puzzled. The more he looked, the more strange it seemed to him, but he inexplicably avoided the two of them.
