Chapter 284 Captain, I Can't Hold on Any Longer...
Adam was wrong.
Half an hour later, Adam deeply realized that he was really wrong.
After preparing the sauce on the giant clam, the aroma of minced garlic floated with the smoke of burning charcoal, as if some kind of DNA was touched, and he found that what he wanted to eat was far more than just vermicelli with minced garlic.
Half an hour later, Adam looked at the three rows of barbecue grills in front of him and the dazzling array of grilled skewers on them and fell into deep thought.
Beef and mutton, streaky chicken legs, bacon and mushrooms, mushroom rice cakes, steamed buns and gluten, tofu and corn, garlic sprouts and leeks, eggplant and potatoes...even eight-eyed giant spiders and basilisk eyeballs.
Forget it, it's just a taste anyway, and it's fine to purify it with a purification card after eating it, it's not a big problem.
After choosing for a long time, he found that he couldn't give up any of them, so Adam simply stopped choosing, he wanted them all!
In order to prevent the smoke from vertically upwards to attract the attention of the stationed personnel of the Ministry of Magic of various countries at the entrance of the cave, Adam also deliberately used wind magic to blow the smoke in all directions.
"Sniff~sniff~"
A twitching sound of the nose sounded, and a pair of eyes suddenly opened in the dark and dark space.
"Oh my god... am I going to die... I seem to smell the aroma of a barbecue stall."
It is said that before a person dies, he will see the most impressive things in his life flashing before his eyes, like a revolving lantern.
Is today his revolving lantern?
That's right, if he dies at this time, the most impressive thing should indeed be food... But why is it barbecue?
The man took a few more deep breaths, and with trembling hands, he grabbed a ball of stored food - the kind of grass that roasted like leeks, a whole bunch of it roughly tied into a knot, and it can't even be said to have been cooked, but can only be said to be a product stored according to the daily food needs - and stuffed it into his mouth.
Feeling the rough texture and the raw grass taste spreading in his mouth, the man's eyes moistened uncontrollably:
"Mom, I miss the herbal tea you made, oooooo..."
"Shut up."
Another pair of eyes brighter than the sobbing man suddenly opened:
"You are not hallucinating, there is really a barbecue smell."
"Eh? Is that so..."
The man wiped his eyes and sighed in disappointment, without even sitting up:
"Is someone else unable to hold on... I thought we were the only ones left underground."
This underground ruins is full of dangers that are difficult to detect and resist. Any behavior that easily exposes one's position must be restrained and restrained, and be careful.
They didn't dare to light the fire a long time ago, and of course they didn't think that the person who was now barbecuing and had also lived underground for so long would not know this. The other party would do this because he obviously couldn't hold on, and indulged before dying, or took a gamble.
But the result of such a gamble was undoubtedly predetermined.
The man who spoke later did not refute his words, but just closed his eyes silently again.
Although they did not know of each other's existence before, they knew that the other party would soon die in the danger of the underground ruins...
Well, soon...
Not long...
Wait a few minutes...
"Gudong--"
"Damn! Why is this fragrance--sniff--seemingly getting stronger?!"
The dry mouth of the man who spoke first became moist for the first time in a long time, and he swallowed heavily, and even couldn't help sitting up.
"What do you want to do?"
The man who spoke later opened his eyes and looked at him.
"Captain, I want to... have a bite."
The man turned his head to look at the man called the captain. On his dusty face, only a pair of eyes were brighter than ever before:
"Captain, I'm sorry... I... I can't seem to hold on any longer, woo woo woo--"
Looking at the tears in his eyes, but no tears could flow down his face, he was sad for his own hesitation but still looked straight at his team members, and the captain sighed:
"Let's go, let's go together."
"Captain... Captain?"
"Fuck... Do you think I'm not greedy when I smell this?"
The captain stood up with his hands on the ground, and his body, which lacked nutrition and exercise, shook slightly because of the movement of getting up.
Then, the captain licked his cracked lips and looked in the direction of the fragrance:
"MD, how many years has it been? No matter what the rules are, we should have been considered dead long ago, right? Continuing to eat grass every day is just a self-deceiving chronic suicide. Rather than starving to death one day when we can't even eat grass, it's better to eat something good before we die..."
As he spoke, the team member had already struggled to get up, but it was more difficult for him to keep his balance than the captain because he had no part below his calf on one side.
"Come on, put your hand on my shoulder, let's go!"
The two supported each other and walked step by step following the fragrance.
...
The meat of the giant clam is really too huge. Out of respect for the virtue of shellfish that comes with its own tableware, although Adam cut the shell meat, he still used the giant clam's own half shell as a container, so the giant clam naturally cooked quite slowly.
Fortunately, Adam, who had mastered the fire card, could control the heat carefully, so he didn't have to worry about the giant clam meat becoming half-cooked. At most, he just had to wait a little longer.
During this long wait, the skewers were cooked one after another, and Adam finally felt that wasting food was a bad behavior, so he went back and brought Xiaoke, Sibi and his other cubs.
A group of gluttons ate all the grilled skewers in a few bites, and Adam didn't let them idle on the empty grill...
"Oh, how can I be so embarrassed?"
A black shadow flashed by, and Adam had a big black bird in his hand.
The black bird was more than half a person tall, and its feathers, beak and claws were all black. Its expression at this time revealed a bit of human confusion.
It was clearly hunting just now, and it had attacked its prey, and then... now... eh? Who is it? Where is it? What happened?
"Another bird! Come on! Bleed it! Pluck the feathers! First burn the hair on the throat and then bleed it!"
Adam skillfully grabbed the two wings of the black bird with one hand, and pinched the black bird's neck with the other hand and stretched forward.
Sib picked up the kettle and poured it on the black bird's neck.
"Uh, is this really how this bird is treated?"
Xiao Ke couldn't help but ask as he watched the black bird wail and struggle because it was doused with boiling water, but was held tightly by Adam.
"Hey~ Chickens, ducks and geese are all treated this way, so what's the difference with this bird?"
Adam grabbed the black bird and said casually.
"No, I mean... can't we use a clean card?"
"..."
Adam was silent for a few seconds, looking at the blood gushing out of the black bird's neck and said:
"In that case, we can't collect blood. Let's see if the blood of this bird tastes good when made into blood clots."
Xiao Ke wanted to say something, but accidentally saw Sibi shaking his head at him with a serious face, and suddenly swallowed back what he wanted to say:
"...Oh."
Adam waited for the bird's blood to be drained, and used a clean card to remove the inedible part of the black bird, then added the marinated sauce and told Xiao Ke to massage it with a meat pad for half an hour to help it absorb the flavor.
In order to perfectly preserve the texture and taste of the black bird, Adam specifically asked Xiao Ke not to wear gloves or use magic.
Xiao Ke, who had turned back to his original form, looked at his clean claws, and then at the black bird meat soaked in the black sauce, and he wanted to cry but had no tears:
"I know..."
