I Became an Old Man in My Leisure Time

Chapter 140: No Chicken, Duck or Goose Is Spared

Bai Suqing said that dogs were not allowed to go up there, so Gu Ke used the spirit stone to restrict the animals. Read

The unlucky little yellow was brought to Yulong Peak by someone, and it was also desperate.

Not long after, Xiaoman rubbed his butt with one hand, and muttered something like "Why do you hit here?" and "Is it too big?".

With the other hand, he put the little yellow next to the little black: "Old Gu, I leave it to you, don't let it run around."

It can still run around like this? Gu Ke nodded speechlessly, and used his mind to comfort the little yellow who "bungee jumped at high altitude" for the second time.

The little guy lay on the ground pitifully and wagged his tail at him, which was a response - his legs were really weak and he couldn't stand up.

Gu Ke could only rub the dog's head again to comfort him.

The comforted little yellow made a whimpering sound, as if accusing the owner of the behavior just now.

Gu Ke could do nothing about it, because Xiaoman had taken a fancy to it.

A dog is a dog, and you can't give it human rights.

After comforting Xiao Huang, he came to the fairy field and pushed out with both palms.

The Push Mountain Palm, which was over 80 levels, brought up a palm force that was like a substance, and dug up big pits in the fairy field.

After a while, Bai Suqing and the two children floated down, and blood and energy were all around their bodies, rolling up a dozen purple emperor ice heart bamboos that were uprooted.

At Gu Ke's signal, they put these purple emperor ice heart bamboos that were more than ten years old into each big pit and buried them back with soil.

Then sprinkle a portion of fairy field exclusive fertilizer on each plant, and the transplanting work was declared completed.

Purple emperor ice heart bamboo is no longer an ordinary bamboo. It can only grow in the fairy field, and the maturity period has changed from seven or eight days for purple bamboo to one month.

Moreover, these old bamboos that are more than ten years old have their own magic. As long as the exclusive fertilizer is added, more new bamboos can be grown quickly.

In a month, about two new bamboos can be produced, saving about half the time.

After doing this, Bai Suqing glared at Xiaoman with a warning, and then turned back to the peak.

Xiaoman waited until her back disappeared on the peak, then made a face: "Isn't it just that I accidentally forgot that Xiao Huang was still in my hand? Next time... well, I won't dare to do it next time, okay?"

Bai Suqing, who was already a hundred feet away in the sky, curled his lips slightly and accelerated away.

Gu Ke smiled and grabbed her chubby face: "Xiao Huang was scared to pee, and there's still a next time? It's just a mountain dog, not a sky-roaring dog."

Xiao Man immediately hugged his arm aggrievedly: "Old Gu~~~"

Gu Ke chuckled: "Tell me, what do you want to eat again?"

"Old Gu, you're the best." Xiao Man's eyes lit up: "These days, it's pork and mutton, and it doesn't seem to be so delicious."

Gu Ke was surprised: "Then you eat the most every time?"

Xiao Man said confidently: "It would be a waste if you don't eat it."

Gu Ke: "...Okay, so what do you want to eat today?"

Xiao Man: "You said, roast chicken, roast duck, roast goose..."

Gu Ke raised his hand to interrupt: "I know, anyway, you don't want to let go of any chicken, duck, or goose."

Xiao Man nodded decisively: "Old Gu still understands the most."

What can Gu Ke do: "Okay, go to the warehouse to get the chickens, ducks, and geese, kill and clean them."

Xiao Man heard this and took Xiao Ping'er away like a gust of wind.

Gu Ke smiled and shook his head, set up the long oven and the large constant temperature vat for baking, and poured charcoal into both.

Then he went to the warehouse to pick out two baskets of vegetables and put them next to the oven.

Xiaoman and the others were also moving very fast.

The blood wrapped the feathers on the poultry and pulled them out slowly and steadily, leaving no feathers.

Then he condensed the blood to be as thin as a blade, and with a flick of his finger, he cut open the belly, took out the internal organs, rolled them up and put them in the stone basin next to him.

Rinse them with water and put them in a bamboo basket to drain.

After getting more than 20 in one breath, Xiaoman stopped, and the two of them returned with the chickens, ducks and geese that emerged from the basket.

Gu Ke asked the two young men to mix rice wine with chopped green onions, ginger, garlic, crushed perilla leaves, peppercorns, and salt for the ducks and geese, and combined with blood, to give them a deep massage from the inside out.

Then he poured all the juice and seasonings into their stomachs, and Xiao Ping'er sewed them up with iron wire vines, and finally wrapped them with lotus leaves.

Seeing Xiaoman looking anxious, he asked her to mix some mud and paste it on two ducks and two geese.

Put the two lumps of mud on a tray and put them into a constant temperature vat with charcoal fire.

Xiaoping'er took the big basket of vegetables and went to the side to pick them, rinsed them, cut them, put them in a basket and brought them back for later use.

On this side, he cut the chicken into eight pieces one by one and separated them by parts.

Put a fine iron mesh on the long oven, took out a large can of seasoning oil fried with onions, ginger, garlic and pepper, and signaled the two children: "Put whatever you want to eat on it and grill it yourself. Remember to brush it with oil several times."

Xiaoman was surprised: "Ah, it can be done this way?"

As she said that, she rolled up ten chicken legs with blood and put them on the iron mesh, and enthusiastically brushed oil on each one with a small brush.

At the same time, she raised her head and shouted: "Sister Bai, it's time to eat. I'm grilling chicken legs for you."

Gu Ke couldn't help but look at the little yellow and little black who were shaking their heads and tails and trying to please their two masters at their feet: Uh, Sister Bai wouldn't feel this way, right?

A moment later, Bai Suqing fell from the sky.

Looking at the three people sitting by the long grill, she looked helpless: "Barbecue again?"

And sitting by the grill, with smoke coming out? This is simply adding fuel to the fire.

Xiao Ping'er was considerate: "How about I go get a bowl of three-fresh noodles?"

Bai Suqing waved her hand: "No, I won't starve if I eat less meat."

Gu Ke gestured to the bamboo chair a few meters away: "Xiao Man said that she will grill for you, with more vegetables and less meat, how about it?"

Bai Suqing looked to the side and saw the vegetables in the basket, which made her feel better.

These days, busy with handling various animals, Gu Ke and Xiao Man, two carnivores, are addicted to grilling, and every day there is thick smoke and the aroma of oil.

Xiao Ping'er also accepts all meat and has no opinion at all.

It's just that Bai Suqing suffers, watching the three guys eat with oil dripping from their mouths every day, she feels full.

But now in the valley, she spends most of her time practicing and reading on Yulong Peak.

Gu Ke likes to work and farm at the foot of the peak, and the two children spend most of their time working and playing below, and a little time practicing martial arts and resting above.

Eating is one of the few times when the four of them get together regularly every day, and Bai Suqing doesn't want to miss it.

As for Xiao Man grilling for her...well, okay, cooking has never been Sister Bai's strong point.

In this regard, Xiao Man can definitely crush her.

But she couldn't just give up, so she picked up a few strings of potato slices with her fingers and rolled them up and put them on the wire mesh.

She knew how to grill, and the potato slices were still edible even if they were grilled.

Xiaoman didn't notice Sister Bai's final stubbornness at all, and brushed the potato slices with seasoning oil, and didn't forget to say: "Give me some leeks and garlic cloves, they taste good when grilled. Sister Bai, where are your lotus root slices and matsutake mushrooms? Put them on quickly so I can brush them with oil."

Bai Suqing rolled her eyes at her, and continued to pick up the vegetables that Xiaoman mentioned, and they flew out of the basket one by one: "You only know you want them, but don't you see if you can put them down?"

Xiaoman raised her hand and swiped it, and pushed the chicken leg aside: "Then grill the vegetables first, um, the potato slices taste good when grilled."

Seeing this, Bai Suqing didn't say anything else, and a faint smile appeared in his eyes.

Xiaoman was a little greedy and naughty, but he still cared about the three of them.

While thinking, Xiaoman had already brushed the vegetables with oil.

Bai Suqing's taste is lighter, so don't use too much oil. Just brush a thin layer evenly to make the charcoal fire easier to heat.

This seasoning oil is a high-quality product specially prepared by Gu Ke in the processing workshop. The oil is clear and burnt by fire. It does not have the stuffy oil smell of ordinary vegetable oil. Only the aroma of seasoning is diffused.

Potato slices, lotus root slices, and matsutake mushrooms are slightly browned under the comfort of thin oil.

Xiaoman controls the salt powder with blood and qi to sprinkle it.

This is the result of her own hard work.

I can't compare the stability and accuracy of Gu Ke's Tianluo hand, so I use blood and qi.

Compared with the touch of the fingertips, the salt grains wrapped in blood and qi are under control.

Then use blood and qi to put the roasted vegetables on Bai Suqing's wooden plate: "Okay, try it quickly to see if my cooking skills have improved."

Bai Suqing took the purple bamboo chopsticks and picked up a piece of lotus root. The outside is slightly soft and the inside is crispy. The seasoning and saltiness are very light, dotted in the taste of the lotus root itself.

It was just right for her, who had a light taste.

She hummed softly in her mouth and nose, and nodded in affirmation.

Xiaoman smiled with satisfaction: "I am indeed talented."

Bai Suqing was speechless.

In terms of cooking, this little girl really deserves this comment.

Xiao Ping'er is also very diligent in cooking, but she can only follow the steps. Whatever she is taught, there will be basically no change.

Xiaoman can adapt to local conditions and figure out the baking method and heat according to her taste.

In terms of martial arts, it is a genius with amazing comprehension, who can innovate anything he practices.

When she thought of this, she was not angry, but just felt funny.

Who let this guy have a "leader" who always said that martial arts training is to work better.

At Xiaoman's place, martial arts training is to eat better-not only can you eat more, but it is also easier to make better food by yourself.

Gu Ke also tasted a piece of each, which Xiaoman specially left for him, the "master chef", to comment.

Hearing this, he smiled and praised: "Yes, it's best if your sister Bai likes it."

As he said that, he stuffed the rolled roasted leek into his mouth.

It is a strong contender for the top three roasted vegetables besides potatoes and lotus root slices.

The leek was roasted slightly dry, and it had a slightly crispy taste at first, and then it had the familiar fragrance and toughness, and there was a faint rustling sound when chewing.

After eating the leek, pick up a clove of roasted garlic that was crispy on the outside and soft on the inside and eat it. The rich smell of the meat in the two dishes filled the mouth, which was simply delicious.

Bai Suqing subconsciously let go of his blood and stepped back several feet with the chair: leek plus garlic, just thinking about it is terrible.

Of course, this refers to the breath sprayed from the mouth of the eater.

Xiaoman will never be allowed to talk to her face to face without rinsing her mouth after eating this-although Wu Zun's keen five senses can be controlled, he can still smell a little bit, which is comparable to a biochemical attack.

Gu Ke knew everything about Sister Bai, but... he didn't care.

After practicing the Wuxiang Sutra until now, he even lost his body odor and sweat.

Even if he ate the strong-smelling leeks and garlic, it would disappear after a while, and Sister Bai would not dislike it.

He was not slow, and divided the roasted leeks and garlic into two small plates: "Come, try my cooking skills."

The two children were not Bai Suqing, but their tastes were similar to Gu Ke's, and they just picked them up and ate them.

Bai Suqing could only roll up the lotus root slices and potato slices from a distance and madly despised the three guys with bad breath with her eyes.

Until Gu Ke took out the four ducks and geese wrapped in yellow mud from the constant temperature vat, and asked the two children to rinse their mouths with tea water, she returned to the oven.

Take the wide bamboo strips used to remove charcoal, knock open the dried yellow mud, and a mixed aroma emanates from the lotus leaves.

Even Bai Suqing, who is a little tired of meat, sniffed: "What is this dish called?"

"Beggar duck, lotus leaf goose, whatever you call it." Gu Ke answered casually, and gave a duck and a goose to the two children first.

Then he opened the lotus leaves of the other duck and goose and threw them away, and put them on two large plates.

The small stone knife cut them quickly, and then put them in front of himself and Bai Suqing.

Bai Suqing stretched out his chopsticks and clamped the duck belly, and a small piece of duck meat was clamped up.

The rest of the duck seemed to have been triggered, and it spread out in all directions. The duck belly flowed out a slightly yellow and transparent soup with a little oil, and the fragrance was several times stronger.

This knife skill... well, it's just so-so. She commented in her heart, and put the clamped duck into her mouth without hesitation.

The duck was fully massaged by Xiaoman and the others, and the water loss was sealed during the baking process. The inside was also soaked with seasoning rice wine.

Although it is called roasted, it is actually braised. The duck meat is not dry at all, tender and smooth, and has a very light fishy smell.

After taking a bite, she, who is picky about taste, couldn't help but squint and nod, and tap her toes lightly.

Seeing this little action, Gu Ke smiled: OK, I don't have to worry about Sister Bai not eating meat in the future.

Otherwise, the other three people's mouths are full of oil, and she only eats vegetables and fruits, which is too out of touch with the masses.

He reached out and picked up a piece of roast goose, dipped it in some juice, and then put it into his mouth to chew.

Compared with the delicate and tender duck meat, goose meat has lower fat and a slightly rough and firm taste, but the low fire stew reduces this feeling, and it tastes a bit like pork, which is not bad.

Looking at the other side, Xiaoman and Xiaoping'er directly divided it equally, each holding half a duck and half a goose and chewing it wildly.

Well, it seems that Xiaoman will be happy to learn and improve this lotus leaf goose (duck).

The sun is long, the smoke is rising, and the joy of gluttony lies here.

In the following days, Gu Ke spent some time every day making standard bamboo houses and began to upgrade the workshop.

As the saying goes, if you want to do your work well, you must first sharpen your tools.

He had a hunch that the level 5 workshop would undergo major changes like the level 5 roadside stall.

There are too many standard bamboo houses required to upgrade the system buildings collectively. Upgrading the workshop first may reduce the workload.

Fortunately, there are still some bamboo houses built before, and the bamboo houses built by Purple Emperor Bingxin Bamboo are five ordinary purple bamboo houses.

At the end of January, he finally upgraded the workshop to level 4 and gathered enough bamboo houses for upgrading to level 5.

With anticipation, Gu Ke chose to upgrade.

The workshop became a four-story high-rise building with gray light and golden light. The shape was no longer square, but in the shape of a 乚, with the long end facing west and extending more than ten feet from the foot of the mountain.

After the upgrade was completed, he immediately checked the system's instructions for the Level 5 workshop in his mind.
