Chapter 859 Delicious Food in the Desert
After fixing An'an, the group continued on the road. They did not stop until the sunlight was so strong that it was difficult for the orcs to see clearly the changes in the desert.
"How long until we reach Yancheng?" Bai Qingqing asked.
Alva thought for a while and said based on his feeling: "We are walking too slowly, it will take at least ten days."
"Ten days..."
Bai Qingqing touched An An's hot skin and said softly: "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid. We still have half a month to catch up."
The orcs ate the dried meat with relish and buried themselves in the sand to sleep like yesterday. It's just that today, everyone didn't dare to separate, so they were buried in a pile.
Curtis could sleep once every few days, so he was left to guard him. Parker also dug a hole near the orcs and buried himself.
Bai Qingqing sat in the shed and had been feeding An An for a long time, but An An didn't let go for a long time.
Curtis hugged Bai Qingqing from behind, helped her hold An An's weight, and whispered: "Isn't the milk enough?"
"Yeah." Bai Qingqing nodded and said, "It should be because I haven't eaten well for several days in a row."
To An An, milk is as precious as drinking water in the desert. There are still ten days left, can't he eat enough every day?
"Hey, if I had known earlier, I would have stayed at home for two more days to recover before coming back." Bai Qingqing said regretfully.
Curtis took out an animal skin bag from behind and placed it in front of Bai Qingqing.
"What is this?" Bai Qingqing asked curiously.
"open to take a look."
Curtis said, Bai Qingqing had already freed one hand and poured out the contents of the bag.
It turned out to be a few smooth brown eggs, bigger than duck eggs. The portions of these eggs were very large, enough for Bai Qingqing to eat several meals.
Bai Qingqing opened her mouth in surprise and said, "What kind of egg is this? Did you find it yesterday?"
"Well, you can eat it dug out of the sand." Curtis said in a doting tone, picking up an egg and handing it to Bai Qingqing.
Bai Qingqing pulled An An away, caught the egg and said happily: "The sand is so hot, I'll try breaking the egg in a bowl."
The bag with the kitchen utensils was just a few meters away. Bai Qingqing wanted to get it by herself, so she stretched out one foot, and when her skin came into contact with the sun, it immediately felt hot.
It was unbelievable that she didn't have the courage to go out just a few meters away.
Curtis touched Bai Qingqing's sunburned skin, then stood up and walked out, dragging a whole bag of food over.
The darkest color among the kitchen utensils was the frying pan. Bai Qingqing blew the noodles and placed them on the sand.
Soon, under the double attack of sunlight and high-temperature sand, the stone pot became extremely hot to the touch.
Bai Qingqing used oil residue to spread a layer of oil on the bottom of the pot, then cracked an egg into it.
The moment the egg liquid fell into the pot, there was even a slight "squeak" sound, and the edges of the egg liquid seemed to start to solidify.
The temperature in the desert is even more exaggerated than Bai Qingqing imagined.
Bai Qingqing looked at the egg liquid in the pot eagerly, suddenly thought of something, clasped Curtis's hand,
"Do you think this is an orc's cub?" Bai Qingqing looked at Curtis and asked.
Curtis thought for a moment and shook his head uncertainly.
Bai Qingqing suddenly didn't dare to speak.
Curtis smiled and said: "Eat it, even if it is an orc's egg, the cubs will be stolen so easily. I guess you are not strong, so you don't have to worry about getting into trouble."
Bai Qingqing: "..."
Hey, who worries about this anymore!
"The key point is the orc eggs, okay?" Bai Qingqing said awkwardly.
