Chapter Thirteen Cozy
In a blink of an eye, the team's previous serious, efficient and banned atmosphere completely disappeared, and the security room suddenly became lively. What everyone needs to do is to prepare for camping tonight.
It must be admitted that once a thorough safety inspection and confirmation that there are no hidden dangers, this security room will become the best place to camp.
There is no need to clean up the ground, no need to set up a tent, no need to drive away wild animals. Just throw your heavy backpack and put your sleeping bag on the shelf bed, and the camping preparation is completed.
Of course, this is just a thought. In fact, even if most of the things are ready-made, setting up the camp is not that simple.
First of all, there must be fire.
Even if you don’t need to drive away wild animals and keep warm, you must at least cook food. Fire sources are essential things in the camp.
A 60-centimeter-diameter column-shaped crystal energy furnace was stuffed into a small red fire-attribute crystal to activate it, and the flames immediately ignited. The two crystal energy furnaces were placed side by side, and the alternately beating flames reflected the orange light on their faces, giving each person a little more warm smell.
If there is fire, how can there be no water?
Everyone will carry some magic compressed solid water with them, which can be used for at least five days. However, it is a life-saving reserve material, and normal liquid water is still used. However, the amount of liquid water is often not enough to meet the full consumption. At this time, the materials must be taken locally.
The easiest way is to find water sources, rivers, lakes and seas, or just dig wells on the ground. Anyway, with Mobak, a geological expert, here, it is easy to dig wells and find water.
However, when conditions do not allow, there is no need to make things difficult. If you really can't find water, you can still make things happen out of nothing. Although the ice and water made by magic are undesirable, with them, the water will not be far away.
Three thin closed copper balls were hung in the air, adjusting the distance from the fire source, not too far or too close. The copper balls were filled with ice made by Mia themselves that would not melt for several days, and the containers were placed below. Soon, the copper balls were covered with fine water droplets, and the ticking sounds of water were connected into a string, as if a cheerful sonata was ringing.
The crystal energy furnace wrapped in the dwarf and the water-drawing copper balls carried by Lin Jing are missing the big aluminum pot behind the half-ling.
The cylindrical aluminum pan was filled with water - of course not those that had not been collected yet, but the reserve water - under the burning of the fire, soon, cute bubbles emerged from the bottom of the water.
"Hahahahaha".
Several powerful golden-level combat professionals, experienced shadow-seekers, and experts in their respective fields were like a group of children, surrounding the boiling pot, staring blankly at the rolling boiling water, showing a foolish but happy smile.
Yes, when you shuttle between survival and death, you are suffering from blood and pain, and you are constantly fighting the most terrifying unknown. After experiencing such a day, what else can you do to be warmer, more at ease, and happier than sitting around the fire and waiting for dinner with anticipation?
Of course, there is also the food itself.
That's right, the best food cooked by Shure himself.
The dark red bacon has thick fat on the edges, and it is boldly cut into thick slices of fine fingers and throws it into the water. During a few rolls, the rich aroma of bacon permeates the room, and a layer of transparent oil floats on the water surface. Jade melon, potatoes, radish and cucumber beans throw these best preserved ordinary vegetables together. White, yellow, red, green, and various colors roll up and down in the boiling water, so that the oil in the water can penetrate into the cut vegetables bit by bit.
"Don't stand there, prepare quickly. Who dares to be lazy for a while and has no food to eat?"
In addition to the placement of tableware, the so-called preparation also has the most important one.
The dwarf happily put the items in the dormitory box cabinet together and moved them out. The halfling pried open the door of the arsenal and placed everything inside in a category.
The female swordsman held all the books on the bookshelf in her arms. Although she couldn't understand a word, she still placed it next to Shuer like a credit. She gave her a few strokes of her head, which made her feel shy and filled with strange happiness. The two mages sorted out all the miscellaneous items in the activity room and picked out useful things to concentrate them together.
Everything is ready, just wait for the show to begin.
This is the most important program for the Shuer team to rest. After eating, they lazily surrounded the fire, looking through the spoils they obtained, with valuable harvests, and enjoy the joy of harvest. Even if the spoils are worthless, they can feel the heavy history from these ancient items and imagine the lives of a group of people they don’t know.
As for the beautiful Ms. Lin Jing, since she ran out of the monitoring room with the pink albums and insisted on letting Shuer use them, she was mournful and forced by the domineering captain to help by her side.
Everyone was preparing, and Shuer was not slow either.
In the cooking pot, the vegetables, melons and beans have gradually become soft and rotten, and the color of the bacon has also begun to turn white. Now is the best time.
Quickly pick up the slices of meat in the water. The originally dry, hard and salty bacon has become soft and has turned into a light brown color.
Put the bacon slices into the pan you are carrying, sticky butter slices are pasted on the meat slices and fry them together. The butter slowly melts and penetrates into the texture of the bacon bit by bit. The sweet butter aroma and meat aroma are tangled together, turning into the most delicious smell.
"No, I can't stand it." I was sitting by the stove early, staring at the dwarf in the pan, holding the ale bag in his hand, swallowing loudly, and yelling hard, "Captain, hurry up, hurry up, I can't wait. This piece of fattest one is mine, no one is allowed to snatch it from me. It smells so good."
"Idiot, look at your greedy look. A piece of fried meat will make you like this. You have the face to say that you are a knowledgeable mercenary, an idiot." The one who will attack him is his best friend, Marca Jaylen, the halfling. "Boss, you can't let him develop the bad habit of being picky about food. Don't pay attention to him. Don't give him that piece of meat, and add a big bowl by the way... Bang, dingdang..."
War is always the most direct way to fight for food, so the war broke out.
"Is this a cooking method from your hometown?" The necromancer with sparse fabric on his body sat lazily, his smooth feet just exposed to Shuer's sight, and his toes were squirming.
"No, this is just the most common cooking method in the Kingdom of Kora. I just combined it a little."
"Impossible." Militi licked her lips slowly around her lips, and said in a sweet voice, "I have been to the Kingdom of Kora countless times, why have I never eaten such a delicious thing?"
"Because the food made by those people does not contain my love for you." Shure narrowed his eyes with a smile and said meaningfully, "How is it, Lord Militi, should you feel my love more deeply?"
"Shu, sooner or later...you will make you kneel and beg me."
"I beg, I beg, I beg now." The half-length man came up with a smile on his face.
"Hehe, it's so lively." Hiding behind Shuer, the female swordsman Saf looked at the lively teammates with a smile, and her heart was warm.
Is this what my friend feels like? It doesn't seem that scary, but it's safer here. Thinking of this, the girl shrank back from Shuer, leaned her shoulder against his thigh, and sighed with peace of mind.
"Okay." Shuer suddenly slapped the table and shouted boldly, "Get the plate."
"Well, is this the chef's aura? It's so powerful." Lin Jing, a half-human and half-deer, knelt on the ground, and his height was just as good as the others. He held his chin with his hands and smiled heartlessly.
"The first supper has finally begun." Asking everyone with food, Shuer picked up the wine glass, "Cheers for the next supper."
"Hahaha, yes, toast for the next dinner." The room was filled with laughter, and obviously, Shuer's toast was very pleasing to everyone.
In fact, this is the reality that you need to face every day in Zhuying. After fighting wits and courage with everything around you for a day, you will still have the opportunity to sit down and have a supper together, which is a very happy thing.
As for the next supper, who still has the chance to eat and who no longer needs it, it’s better to leave this kind of thing to worry about after the meal. What you have to do now is to enjoy the dinner carefully prepared by the captain.
Not complicated for dinner, but it is delicious and memorable.
The potatoes and radish are stewed softly, the jade melon is soft and chewy, and the refreshing taste of the fresh green leafy vegetables is closest to that of fresh green leafy vegetables. It is mixed with the fat of bacon, and then the rich butter is used to blend all the flavors together. The milky aroma, meat aroma, and vegetable aroma, and it starts to heat up from the heart after taking a bite.
Dig a large spoonful of pasty creamy vegetable soup, and a large mouthful of salty and fragrant fried bacon. After frying the boiled bacon, the taste is moderately soft and hard, and there is no greasiness at all. People who eat it often feel that they have just tasted the taste, but the plate in front of them has already entered their stomachs.
"That piece is mine, damn little guy, don't even want to compete with me."
"A mere idiot dwarf dares to call someone else a dwarf, and you can't even think of eating a piece of thieves."
As always, the food war broke out again, and the two mages sat shoulder to shoulder, watching the farce of the dwarf and the halfling without saying a word.
After all, he is a dignified mage and will never be as uneducated as a rude warrior and a thief. Of course, it is impossible to make a ball just by a few slices of fried meat. However, it would be even better if the fried meat on the plate was not constantly changing its position under the magic control of the mage's hands and space transfer objects.
"Hehehe." Savage smiled foolishly. The shy girl dared not express her joy, but every time she touched Shuer's shoulder, she felt happiness.
Saff did feel so happy that he wouldn't feel jealous even when he saw Shul stuffing a few cans of jam to Moria.
Xiaolu said that's not bad. As long as you can take a happy adventure together like this often, there is nothing to be jealous of. Do you think so, Moria?
"Yuyouyou." Licking the lid of my favorite jam jar, Lin Jing let out a string of deer sounds.
"Ha, Moria, you're pretending to be annoying again." Going past Seul, Saff hit the deer's back several times, in return for a spoonful of sweet jam stuffed into his mouth.
