Chapter 285

"Headmaster, isn't it unlucky for Qingcheng sect and situ family to enter Shu ruins this time?"

Although he couldn't see the orchards of the other two sects, Gu'an still looked over there.

"Yes, especially the situ family. They could have entered two people, but only one. It is conceivable how much they can have in the orchard this time."

Gu Zheng's voice suddenly became serious: "We are about to enter the orchard. Our comprehensive strength is not high. If we encounter high-level spirit beasts, we must be cautious. In addition, when we encounter danger, I don't want you to always consider me. I have self-defense means. It's most important for you to pay attention to your own safety. I hope there are four people when entering the Shu ruins and four when leaving the Shu ruins!"

With ethereal illusion and Emei precepts, Gu'an and the three of them must be in a more dangerous situation if life-threatening situations can still occur. Therefore, Gu Zheng needs to remind them not to be too excited.

Gu'an was stunned, and immediately nodded like a chicken pecking rice. Gu Zheng's cultivation was not high, but in their hearts, it was almost omnipotent.

"Go, from easy to difficult, let's clean up the spirit beasts in Zhuguo District first."

Gu Zheng took the lead in entering the orchard, and Gu'an followed closely. The group moved forward carefully and tried not to make any noise.

The strange fruit will mature in three days. Today's orchard must have gathered many spirit beasts. Although these spirit beasts are not very united, they are only troublesome compared with the whole spirit beast group. Provoking one is sometimes equivalent to provoking a group.

Zhu Guoshu is the tallest of the three fruit trees. Almost every tree is eight meters high. The red seen before entering the orchard is actually the crown of Zhu Guoshu.

"Hey, what a wonderful fruit! I don't know how many will belong to us at that time. If only the wasteland space could be collected directly, it would be like a whirlwind!"

There are almost a dozen different fruits hanging on each Zhu Guo tree. Looking at the Zhu Guo with a slight flicker between the hidden branches and leaves, Gu Zheng seems very happy.

In fact, as Gu Zheng lamented, the wasteland space can not directly collect this rooted and growing thing, otherwise he will directly collect the Millennium snow lotus during his trip to Tianshan.

"The immature Zhu fruit is inferior in grade after ripening, which is better than the small fragrant pear you ate before. The internal strength cultivation that one Zhu fruit can increase is equivalent to four small fragrant pears."

The sound of the instrument spirit rang out in Gu Zheng's mind, and in the grass not far away, a fat guy with black hair and a body length of about one meter stood up.

"Gulu..."

The thing standing up looked like a pig's head and brain, and made its signature cry at Gu Zheng and others. This guy was the kind of low spirit beast Gulu pig he had met on the road before.

Gollum pigs are the most common low spirit beasts in the periphery of the whole Shu ruins. They are not picky about food and have strong reproductive energy. They are deeply loved and hated by practitioners.

Like because their elixir is easy to hunt, hate is that many resources will be wasted by it.

Gu Zheng stretched out his hand and Zhang Tiancheng immediately walked towards Gulu pig, and the Gulu pig was unwilling to be weak. He lowered his head and hit Zhang Tiancheng. Although Gulu pig is only one meter long, it is a spirit beast after all. In addition to its fast speed, its impact force is enough to crack an ox big rock.

As soon as Zhang Tiancheng hid, Gollum pig crashed into the air, but its body shape was contrary to common sense. It was immediately stopped. It was not affected by inertia. At the same time, two front legs supported the ground, and two retreated, kicking towards Zhang Tiancheng's stomach like a donkey.

Zhang Tiancheng, who had already prepared, hid again, and his internal strength immediately hit Gulu pig's waist.

"Kappa..."

"Gulu..."

The sound of broken spine and cry were sent out at the same time. The Gollum pig lying on the ground was punched on the head by Zhang Tiancheng, ending its life.

"This is a strong Gollum pig. Even if he dies, he doesn't call his companions!"

Gu Zheng sighed and commented on the dead Gulu pig.

Although Gulu pig is small and doesn't have the ability to fly, its ability to pick different fruits is first-class. When the different fruits are mature, Gulu pig just needs to hit the tree trunk, and the different fruits will fall to the ground like rain. Even practitioners can't catch up with such high efficiency, because the tree trunk has a special resistance to internal strength, and the effect of internal strength on it is better than Gulu pig It's much worse to hit a tree.

Compared with Gollum pig, cultivators' method of collecting different fruits is much slower. They usually beat the trunk twice first, and all the different fruits that can be dropped are dropped, and it is useless to beat too many different fruits that cannot be dropped.

Almost all the strange fruits falling on the ground will be broken. If they are found, they will be eaten by themselves. After all, the broken fruits will soon break. As for the remaining strange fruits on the tree, gently sweep them with external internal strength and pick them up by hand. Almost all of these strange fruits have good appearance and can be used to take them back to the sect or give them to Shu mountain.

Spirit beasts have their own territory, and the same is true for occupying orchards. When a Gulu pig is cleaned up, there is usually no second spirit beast in a Zhu fruit tree.

Although there are more than 100 Zhu Guo trees, they are still quite sparse in orchards of more than 50 mu. When you clean up the spirit beast next to a Zhu fruit tree, you often have to walk a distance to meet the second one. But it's also very good. It saves money and annoys many spirit beasts at the same time.

"Go, go to No. 78 zhuguoshu."

Gu Zheng looked at the Gulu pig on the ground and left with his disciples.

Gollum pigs are in good shape and have a higher meat yield than wild boars! On their small bodies, they simply don't have much fat. They are all lean meat that looks very beautiful. But unfortunately, Gulu pigs are not domestic pigs after all. Their meat is very coquettish. Otherwise, Gu Zheng will not let it go easily.

Each fruit tree in the orchard has a number. The location of No. 78 Zhu fruit tree is not far from the place where Gu Zheng cut into the orchard.

The reason why I want to go to No. 78 zhuguoshu is because there are medicinal materials planted in Ziyun palace when the Shu ruins were opened last time.

In fact, not only Ziyun palace will plant plants, but also other sects. In view of the change of ranking, no matter which sect is planting, you should clearly tell Shushan after leaving the Shu ruins, so that they can tell the corresponding sect after the next ranking change.

Near No. 78 zhuguoshu, there is a big pear tree with two people hugging. The fruit of this pear tree is sweeter than that of the outside world, but there is nothing special.

The pear tree is very old. It is so old that a big tree hole is born near the ground. The medicinal materials planted in Ziyun Palace are there. In order to protect the medicinal materials planted inside, Ziyun palace even arranged a small array outside the tree cave that can cover up, so that future generations can harvest something.

The old pear tree is very tall. I saw it early. It didn't take much time for Gu Zheng and others to find it. However, when Gu Zheng saw the tree hole, his face changed in an instant.

"Damn it."

The plants planted in the tree hole are medicinal materials, but they have been arched by pigs, which made Gu Zheng scold.

The medicinal materials arched by pigs look like Chinese cabbage in appearance, and its name is "red heart crisp". It only grows on this kind of red soil in orchards. The growth cycle of the medicinal materials produced in Shu ruins is relatively short, only ten years.

However, although the growth cycle is short, the "red heart crispy" can be used for a wide range of purposes. In addition to being used to refine beauty pills, it is also a very delicious food material.

There is no "red heart crispy" in the outside world. Almost all of them are ordinary in quality. They taste so good that they are also included in the list of tribute accepted by Shushan mountain.

Don't get me wrong, Shushan needs "red heart crispy" not to refine beauty pills, they just want to eat! Chicken fir, red heart crisp and duck palm cattail are also the only three kinds of food tribute collected in Shushan.

In the words of Qiling, it is: "the delicacy of fried red heart crisp is no less than stewed purple."

In addition to hearing Qiling say that red heart is crispy, Gu Zheng has heard the two elders of worry free and worry free mention it many times. They also asked Gu Zheng to take it back if he entered the Shu ruins and saw red earth crispy. They haven't tasted red heart crispy for ten years.

Unfortunately, there are few proved places in the whole Shu ruins that can grow and plant red hearts except the orchard areas of six sects.

But when the red heart crisp is mature, it is also the time when the different fruit is mature. At this time, there are many spirit beasts in the orchard, including a large number of Gulu pigs, who like to harm the immature red heart crisp very much. Anyway, this kind of thing can't make a big supplement after eating. It doesn't matter if it becomes immature, and the disaster will be a disaster.

"If you want to bite, you can kill them all. They don't take shape. It hurts!"

There were ten red heart crisps in the tree cave, all of which were bitten by Gulu pig, and Liu Ying was gnashing his teeth in anger.

"Damn Gollum pig, every red heart crisp is chewed by it. Although it hasn't died yet, it will die in two or three days. Moreover, after being chewed by it, the grade of ingredients has been reduced, and it's useless to dig it out."

Gu Zheng paused with emotion and then smiled coldly: "the array left by Ziyun palace can't stop you, can it? Today's lunch is you!"

"Headmaster, you don't want to eat Gulu pig? Its meat is very angry!" Gu'an hurriedly reminded.

"What are you afraid of? Don't you believe my cooking? Can you relieve your anger without eating it?" Gu Zheng said.

"I can!"

Gu'an answered subconsciously. He had already remembered a rumor in the door.

It is said that Gulu pork smells coquettish and tastes more coquettish, especially the eggs of male Gulu pigs. The Gollum pig can be used as a resource. In addition to the elixir, there are only the two eggs of the boar.

Gulu pigs have strong reproductive ability, which is closely related to boars. The two eggs of boars can indeed refine special pills for people with special status to take, so as to improve some abilities of males.

Once upon a time, a senior Shushan, who claimed that he had nothing to eat, got a Gollum pig's egg. He handed it to an Emei disciple named "stewed Chen" and asked him to help clean it up.

"Stewed Chen" is a disciple of Emei, who is responsible for a century old stewed shop in Emei.

After "stewing Chen" removed the Sao tendons from the pig eggs, he soaked them in water and pickled them with cooking wine. He finally removed the Sao flavor from the pig eggs in the way he could.

In the evening, when making stewed pork, the "stewed chicken" put the pork eggs cut into two pieces into the century old stewed soup, along with many stewed pork eggs to be sold the next day.

The next morning, an old customer came to the door, asked for some brine, put it in the fire, and vomited all over the floor. No reason, it's so exciting!

I don't believe it. After all, there's no coquettish smell in the broth and the customer's bitterness. Therefore, at the customer's request, "stewed Chen" also burned with some brine to eat.

After a mouthful of stewed food, the "stewed Chen" vomited in the pot of 100 year old soup on the spot.

Later, the elder Emei, who claimed that there was nothing to eat, forced a pig egg and disappeared immediately. When the people saw him a month later, he was only skin and bones.

"Fuck you!"

Gu Zheng laughed and scolded and kicked Gu An's ass. naturally, he knew what kind of stem Gu An thought.

"I didn't let you eat pig eggs. What are you afraid of? After my treatment, Gulu pig meat won't be coquettish, but it won't be like eating fried eggs."

Gu Zheng didn't deceive Gu An. If the meat of Gulu pig had no flavor, it was estimated that the meat quality would be OK. If Gu Zheng hadn't been more and more tricky and lazy, he even thought that Gulu pork was worth collecting. After all, its meat color was very beautiful, and the meat with beautiful meat color was usually not bad.

"That's good, that's good."

Gu'an scratched her head in embarrassment and squeezed out a flattering smile on her face, which made Liu Ying giggle.

"Well, now go and find the damn Gollum pig. If it's a boar, use your fastest means to solve it!" Gu Zheng ordered.

Boars are different from sows. Boars cry for help when they are defeated.

"Yes."

Zhang Tiancheng, the first hit man, immediately ran to the deep grass in front of him. After eating, he likes to lie in the grass and sleep late, which is also a characteristic of Gulu pig.

"Gulu..."

Sure enough, there was a Gulu pig sleeping in the grass. It jumped up when Zhang Tiancheng was about to approach.

"Boar!"

Zhang Tiancheng's eyebrows were frozen. When he stepped forward, he held the pig's mouth with one hand and punched Gulu pig on the skull with a hard punch.

When Zhang Tiancheng released Gulu pig, Gulu pig's eyes had been closed, and the pig's blood flowed wildly in his mouth. Only four pig hoofs were still twitching.

Gu An and others were responsible for burning the fire. Gu Zheng cut off some of the tenderloin of Gulu pig and cut a lot of its hind legs.

After washing the meat, it should have been strung with bamboo sticks, but Gu Zheng frowned.

"Headmaster, what's the matter?"

Seeing that Gu Zheng stopped and frowned, Gu an immediately asked.

"Put out the fire, Gu'an, go and pick up some dead branches of zhuguoshu for me!"

Gu Zheng is gnashing his teeth and still has a cruel look in his eyes. He is lazy, but since he decides to roast Gulu pork, make it better!

The firewood for Gu'an's fire is old pear wood, and the firewood required by Gu Zheng now is the dead branches of inferior different fruits and Zhu fruits, which is undoubtedly a higher-level fruit firewood.

Originally, I just wanted to simply roast the meat and wash it with water, but since Gu Zheng doesn't think so, the method naturally needs to be changed. This change doesn't mean to change to a higher level of water for cleaning. Originally, the common quality water source brought from Shushan was used to wash the low-quality Gulu pork. There is no talk of lowering the level at all.

Cleaning a food or even utensils is for the sake of cleanliness. Cleaning with high-quality water is for the sake that even if there is residue in the water, it will not destroy the ultimate taste and lower the quality of food materials. Therefore, after becoming the descendant of tiexian, Gu Zheng used second-class iceberg mineral water for a long time.

This is not to force, but it is really necessary. In the words of instrument spirit, it is: "the inferior water used for cleaning is the lowest limit. If you change the low-grade or garbage water source, if there is residue, you can't do it to the extreme."

During a trip to the back of Shushan two days ago, Gu Zheng also talked to Luo Xiao about water. At that time, Luo Xiao had another question. She asked Gu Zheng, "since water is so strict, what about air? How can air be avoided? When you cook, you always have to face the air?"

Gu Zheng smiled and replied: "First of all, there is cleaning. The cleaned food materials will be used soon and will not be contaminated with many other things. Even if they can't be used for a while after cleaning, dust prevention measures are taken for them. Besides, it's not cooking in places with a lot of dust such as incineration plants and power plants. What pollution can the food materials suffer? Even if there are some air dust, it's cooking In the process, it can also be ignored. After all, high temperature has the function of purification. If this is polluted, there should be no grade of food materials in the world. "

Originally, the meat of Gulu pig could be put on a string after washing, but since he decided to do it well, Gu Zheng beat the tenderloin and hind leg meat with his fist.

Wild boar meat is very thick, and Gulu pork meat is thicker. Gu Zheng's beating replaces the function of meat hammer. Give it loose meat, or make its meat smooth and tender.

The loose meat has been strung. Gu Zheng puts it aside for the time being.

Gu Zheng took out some of the chicken oil fungus collected on the road, washed it and mashed it with salt. This is also a step that he didn't do when he was lazy.

Everything was ready, and the fruit firewood in the stove quickly turned into charcoal fire under the urging of the ancient fire control formula.

Put all the tenderloin and hind leg meat on the fire. Control the water and fire at the same time. Gu Zheng roasted the meat kebab in an all-round way.

Unlike ordinary roast meat, Gu Zheng needs to spend more immortal power to get rid of the smell in the meat.

The barbecue is smoking, and the water in the meat drops on the fire, making a "Zizi" sound. At the same time, it also brings a pungent smell.

Gu An frowned and couldn't help retreating. The key reason why he was afraid of Gu Zheng roast pig eggs was that his resistance to some peculiar smells was worse than others.

"Gu'an, where are you going? I have a fan in my backpack. Take it out and fan the smell of barbecue towards where we come from."

Gu Zheng gave the order with a smile, and Gu an agreed with a sad face. From Gu Zheng's big backpack, he took out a fan with a fan bone enough to be one meter high.

Such a large fan is naturally an indoor pendant. It is a gift from elder Feng who likes magic to Gu Zheng. However, the pendant belongs to the pendant, but if you use it to fan the wind, as long as you can dance, the wind is still very strong.

"Hoo Hoo..."

Gu'an is an inner strength cultivator. Most people need to work hard to dance a super large fan. He not only doesn't seem hard, but also has a great momentum. The smell of barbecue is completely fanned to the periphery of the orchard by him.

"Gu'an, you said that when the leader came to Shu ruins, why did he still bring such a big fan?"

"Headmaster, this is to train me and want me to overcome the problem of disgusting smell as soon as possible."

Gu'an glared at Liu Ying, who covered his mouth and smiled.

"Yes, children can be taught." Gu Zheng smiled playfully.

There are no more drops of water on the barbecue. It was completely forced out by the ancient water control decision. Gulu pig's oil and meat can't retain water, and almost all the flavor is hidden in these creams and liquids.

All the things that should be forced were forced out, and there was no more Sao flavor on the Gulu pork, and the faint smell of roast meat also rose.

The underground spring water prepared on one side was drenched on the barbecue by Gu Zheng to control the water and make the barbecue absorb evenly. Since it is already short of water, it must be supplemented, otherwise the meat will be very old and dry.

After letting the barbecue inhale medium quality water, Gu Zheng poured sesame oil on it. Only water is not enough. Barbecue will not taste good without oil.

The missing things were replaced. Gulu pork gave off a different flavor, which attracted Liu Ying and Zhang Tiancheng, who had not tasted the ancient cooking, to swallow their saliva.

Now the barbecue has not been completed, but Gu Zheng is sure that its taste will not be worse than that of other rabbits!

The previously mashed chicken oil fungus was evenly smeared on the meat string by Gu Zheng, and then a new round of barbecue began.

Chicken oil fungus is relatively tender and is not suitable for fierce roasting. Gu Zheng used fire control formula to control the fire, and water control strategy to control the juice of pickled chicken oil fungus to penetrate into the meat evenly, and the fragrance immediately smelled.

The smell of meat and fungus made Gu Zheng a little intoxicated and took a deep breath. As for the other three people, it was only Liu Ying and Zhang Tiancheng who swallowed their saliva before. Now even Gu'an, who had eaten delicious food for several times, swallowed their saliva wildly.

"Gu'an, you have to work harder and continue to fan. Liu Ying, you feed him!"

Gulu pig's meat had been roasted. Gu Zheng began to distribute meat kebabs, and the four people immediately ate it.

"It's delicious! I've never eaten this kind of barbecue with mushroom flavor. It's so special! This unexpected trip to Shu ruins with the leader seems to start a feast trip. I'm so happy. Thank you, leader!"

Liu Ying was so sweet that Gu Zheng laughed.

"Don't patronize and talk. It's my turn to eat. Hurry up!"

Gu'an fanned with both hands and pressed Liu Ying with his mouth.

"Delicious, I'll have two more!"

Among the few people, Zhang Tiancheng ate the fastest. He didn't swallow the barbecue in his mouth. He immediately began to make a reservation.

"Yes, let's finish the tenderloin two by two. As for the hind leg meat, I'll keep it for him."

Gu Zheng didn't bake too much once. After handing Zhang Tiancheng two strings, he bit another piece of roast meat and tasted it carefully.

To be honest, Gulu pork can finally be roasted like this, which is completely beyond the expectation of Gu Zheng! If you have to find a dish to compare the taste, Gu Zheng thinks it should be made by him. The taste of the roasted bamboo mouse alone should be before that of the current Gulu pork.

Although it was only between Bo Zhong and Bo Zhong, this was undoubtedly a great breakthrough in the ancient dispute. After all, the grade of raw materials was too bad. When I asked Qi Ling before, Qi Ling was unwilling to make a comment.

I thought of the spirit in my heart, and the sound of the spirit also sounded in my mind.

"The original quality of Gulu pork is garbage. After the flavor is removed by the descendant of tiexian, the food grade becomes inferior. After being carefully transformed by the descendant of tiexian and supplemented with seasonings, the taste of the whole dish has reached the ordinary level!"

"Lord tie Xian once said: the way of cooking is not only to make delicious food with good ingredients, but also to make delicious food with bad ingredients. This is a better cooking, a means to turn corruption into magic, and a shining point in the way of cooking!"

"Congratulations to the descendant of tie Xian. You have completed the hiding task left by Lord tie Xian. The reward is..."

The words of the instrument spirit made Gu zhengmeng confused. He didn't expect that he was just stubborn for a moment and even completed a hidden task!

As for the reward given by the instrument spirit, although it is very single, it is good enough to make Gu Zheng stunned. Unfortunately, the items of task reward have the limitation of cultivation, which Gu Zheng can't meet for a while.

After waking up from joy, Gu Zheng looked at Gu An and others: "have you eaten?"

"Eat well, but not full!"

Liu Ying took the lead in answering, and her face was still full of meaning.

Gu Zheng smiled: "I know you are not hungry. Just eat delicious food. If you really want to be full, you have to wait until I am free and the time is right."

"Headmaster, do you have any plans?"

Gu Zheng is roasting the hind leg meat again now, but just now he said that the hind leg meat should be kept for his use, which made Zhang Tiancheng ask.

"You'll know later."

Gu Zheng smiled and sold it.

After a while, the hind legs were all roasted. Gu Zheng said, "Gu An, you can stop fanning."

While he was talking, Gu Zheng put all the roasted hind legs into a leather bag, and then took out the immortal wine he brewed and poured it into it.

The reason why Gu'an was allowed to fan before was that the lard in the roast meat was not clean, and the taste of lard could stimulate Gulu pigs. Although a single Gollum pig is not terrible, if it is a group, Gu Zheng doesn't want to face it directly.

"Palm, headmaster, do you want to make the spirit beasts drunk? This method has not been used, but the effect is not good at all. On the contrary, it is easy to annoy the spirit beasts by using this method!"

Although Gu Zheng still didn't explain what "keeping it for other purposes" was, Zhang Tiancheng understood it.

For the spirit beasts in the orchard, there has always been no particularly good way to deal with them, and there have been various means in the process of exploring the methods. Among the means of using food as bait, there are cloth sinking, medicine in food, and of course, wine in food.

No matter what means, as long as it is about food, the effect is not ideal. The spirit beasts in Shu ruins are naturally resistant and cautious about processed food and added food! And, indeed, as Zhang Tiancheng said, it is easy to provoke the spirit beast in this way. Some people also joked that the reason why the spirit beast was angered by this method must be that its IQ was insulted!

"You're right. I just want to use this method. When I get to the place where the high-level spirit beast is located, I'll put it first. You can see the spirit beast's move before you go."

Gu Zheng's confidence is not unreasonable. As early as in Shushan, he asked Qiling about this problem.

Qi Ling told Gu Zheng that this kind of spirit beast in Shu ruins is not as smart as anyone thought. It's bullshit to say that his IQ has been insulted! The fundamental reason why this method doesn't work is the coarseness of food or wine.

Imagine, who would use high-grade ingredients as bait like Gu Zheng? Who would be a loser like Gu Zheng and feed meat with immortal wine? And it's a kilo without blinking?

In fact, Gu Zheng is lazy. Primary and intermediate spirit beasts can't use this method at all. As long as they don't encounter a group, Gu Zheng and others kill one by one, it's not a problem at all.

As for the high-level spirit beast, it will not matter to solve it one by one by carrying a girder with the current cultivation of ancient struggle and dragging it down. Several other people beat the side drum! But who makes Gu Zheng lazy? There is an easier way, why use the harder one? Barbecue is not rare to him, and immortal wine can be brewed without it. The useless method of others can't be better for him.

Gu Zheng took the prepared bait. Gu An and others followed him and headed for the area where the blood crystal grape tree was located.

The idea is beautiful, but the reality must be cruel. It's not as simple as it seems to be to get close to the blood crystal grape tree.

Now there are three days before the fruit will mature. Most spirit beasts are now in the center of the orchard. There are two more powerful fruit, spirit peach and blood Crystal Grape, which send out enough temptation to them and force them to swim in the center of the orchard.

However, not all spirit beasts are in the central area, and some spirit beasts with self-knowledge will stay outside and guard a Zhu fruit tree. When the fruit matured on the third day, a fierce battle broke out in the central area. Many spirit beasts woke up from the temptation of spirit peach and blood Crystal Grape, and then rushed to the periphery. These spirit beasts who had stayed in the periphery were almost full.
