original chef king

Chapter 87
After staying in the Qinghu Department for two days, inspecting the terrain, environment, and the special products of the Qinghu Department, Li Qi and the others left.

Li Qi has already regarded this entire land as a breeding ground of the Huaxia Alliance, because the aquatic plants here are too rich, and it would be a waste to use it as a breeding ground.

After walking for two days, the road conditions gradually became muddy, which also indicated that they had arrived at the territory of the Claw Division.

The old nest of the pincers department is in a protruding bay area of ​​the whole lake. The terrain here is relatively low, so the road is relatively muddy.

"What are you thinking?"

Ling'er, who was riding on the deer beast, looked at Li Qi who was stunned curiously.

“Spicy crawfish!”

Li Qi couldn't help but said, the corners of his mouth were already moist!
He really can't be blamed for this, because the entire bay area is covered with densely packed shrimps, dark red in color, and their bodies are only as big as crayfish, but their pincers are like lobsters, and they look a little uncoordinated.

"What spicy crayfish?" the leader of the pincers department asked happily.

"what?"

Li Qi suddenly woke up, glanced at Linger again, pretended to be disgusted, and said, "Why are there so many bugs here?"

Xi nodded and said: "Every time this time, there will be a lot of clamp worms here, we dare not go down to fish."

Still fishing?You really do not know the blessings in the blessing!Thinking about the place where we used to live, if there was no artificial breeding, this thing would have been extinct!Li Qi asked curiously, "Why?"

Xi said: "This pincer worm is powerful. If you are caught by its pincers, your fingers will be broken. We dare not approach them, so we can only drive them away with stones, but there are too many of them, and we can't drive them away."

"You can pinch off your fingers?"

"Well. Its pair of tongs are very sharp."

"Sharp?"

Li Qi stepped forward and stared carefully at the shrimp claws, but saw that the shrimp claws were completely different from what he had known, as if there was a blade embedded in the large red claws, turned around and said, "I thought you guys Will eat them?"

Xi said: "Sometimes there is nothing to eat, so we catch a few to eat, but their shells are very hard, and it takes a lot of force to break them, but they are not delicious."

Ling'er frowned, but said nothing.

That's because you don't know how to eat, no, I can't show it now, lest I be nagged by this woman again, alas. I'm a chef with an animal protection association every day, and it's really hard for me!With great difficulty, Li Qi moved his eyes away from those shrimps, and said, "Go, let's go to your cave and have a look."

Although the cave in the Pincers Department is not as big as the one in the Black Stone Valley, it is still very big. When Fei saw this big cave, he gradually felt envious in his heart. I don’t know if she thought that she could live here in the future, after all. They already belong to the China Alliance.

Not only that, the caves in the pincers department are all colorful, as if they have been decorated. This is because the terrain here is relatively low and the air is relatively humid, so a lot of bacteria grow, not only at the entrance of the cave, but also on the trees and on the ground. It can be seen everywhere, and they are all brightly colored, which leads to the colorful nests of the entire pincers department. On the contrary, there are fewer fruits here, so people in the pincers department generally eat fungi.

There are so many wild mushrooms, I have to bring some back to the farmer to taste, maybe there is something like Ganoderma lucidum hidden in it, and it can also nourish the kidney, alas. In fact, it is useless now, and I can’t find a place to use it.Li Qi looked back at the water bay again, and thought, this place is quite suitable for building a pier, and this pincer department is just in the middle of several tribes.

When he came to the cave, Li Qi met the sisters from the Pincers Division and had a chat with them.

Although people these days are a bit nerdy, they are a little scared when they see strangers, and they don't dare to speak, but Li Qi is an old driver after all, and this method of winning over women is still useful. Soon, the sister of the pincer department We became acquainted with him.

Leaving the Pincer Tribe, Li Qi and the others rushed to the Deadwood Tribe.

Among the five tribes, the Deadwood tribe is the only tribe that does not live by the lake. They live in a relatively open place away from the lake.

According to Zenji, they live here because there are many beasts here, which is why the Deadwood tribe is the most powerful tribe among the five tribes, because they often fight with beasts, and the warriors of the Deadwood tribe are also the most fierce. The person who was shot in the head by Li Qi was also a member of the Deadwood Department.

Witherwood Department's lair is in a large cave dwelling, which is bigger than Heishi Valley's. The cave dwelling has several floors, enough to accommodate all the people in the Witherwood Department.

The area around this water area is basically a hilly area, and there are no towering peaks like Heishi Valley, but the cave dwelling where Kuerubu lives is under a big mountain. , and on the opposite side, there is a big mountain. Although the mountain is not high and the slope is relatively gentle, it is very big!

"Why are there all dead trees on that mountain?"

Li Qi stood in front of the cave, looking at the mountain opposite, his face full of surprise.

I saw that the mountain was pitch black, without a blade of grass, but there were many withered trees, and there was only this kind of tree.

"That's not a dead tree." Ling'er said suddenly.

Li Qi asked in surprise, "Isn't that a dead tree?"

Ling'er said: "This kind of tree does not bloom or bear fruit, it reproduces by its roots."

Li Qi frowned and said, "Tree roots multiply?"

He also knew that some plants reproduce by root system.

Ling'er nodded and said: "The roots of this kind of tree are extremely developed, and they will continue to spread to the surrounding area. When they spread to a certain extent, they will fall off automatically, and then grow by themselves, becoming a new tree. Where this tree grows, it is difficult for other trees to grow. But the branches and leaves of this tree are very lush."

Li Qi laughed immediately, pointed at the dead trees and said, "That's considered lush? Am I blind?"

Ling'er rolled his eyes slightly, and said: "That's because we came at the wrong time. The leaves of this kind of tree only need 20 days from germination to withering and falling, and then new leaves grow again. This cycle, you see The black ones are actually all dead leaves."

"Dead leaves?" Li Qi was startled.

Zen nodded repeatedly, and said: "Ling'er is right, Linger is right."

Li Qi suddenly remembered the black rope that ignited the fire, so he said: "Let's go, let's go and have a look."

When I came to the foot of the mountain, I took a closer look and saw that it was really a piece of dry leaf. Li Qi picked up a leaf. Judging from the shape, it should be a needle-shaped leaf. It looked very thick in my hand. Li Qi rubbed it vigorously. After rubbing, it feels like tobacco leaves, but after rubbing, there is a layer of black ash on the fingers, as if the leaves were burnt.

Li Qi took a closer look, and then raised his eyes to look at the dead tree closest to them. The dead tree was not tall, estimated to be about ten meters, but it was very thick. It took at least three Li Qis to hug a circle. Very smooth, like planed wood, orange, lumpy with ridges, twisted branches, as if they were twisted by a hurricane, it has a sense of vicissitudes, and if you look closely, you can find a little green on the branches , densely packed.

"Zengji, do you usually use this leaf to preserve the fire?" Li Qi suddenly asked Zongji.

Zeng Ji nodded slightly and said, "Although it is difficult to ignite this leaf, it is very difficult to extinguish it once it is ignited."

This is actually one of the reasons why the Deadwood Department is strong, because other tribes need this kind of dead leaves to preserve fire, and this kind of dead tree is only available in their Deadwood Department.

Li Qi nodded, and suddenly asked Ling'er: "Ling'er, do you also use this kind of dead wood to preserve fire in your big tree tribe?"

Ling'er shook her head and said, "Our tribe never makes fire."

Li Qi asked in surprise, "Why?"

Ling'er said: "Why do we need to light a fire? We don't eat meat."

Li Qidao: "Don't you light a fire in cold weather?"

Linger shook her head and said, "Our place is always warm."

"Then drive!"

He was about to say drive away the beasts, but then realized how idiotic the question was.

Ling'er pursed her lips and smiled.

Li Qi coughed lightly and said, "Then you also have this kind of tree there?"

Linger said: "No! But I've seen it in other places. Don't you have this kind of tree in New Oriental?"

"No."

Li Qi shook his head, and suddenly bent over to grab a handful of dead leaves, "Go back."

When he came to the cave, Li Qi immediately lit a fire, and then put a black dead leaf on the fire.

Linger asked curiously, "What are you trying to do?"

Li Qidao: "I'm looking to see if this dead leaf is really so magical."

Ling'er nodded and said nothing more.

After a while, I saw the dead leaves emitting a shining white light, and after a while, the light of the leaves gradually receded, leaving a layer of white ash.

Li Qi covered his face with one hand, baby!This is really a baby!

Ling'er slanted her pretty face slightly and looked at Li Qi, "What are you doing?"

"It's nothing!" Li Qi raised his head, but he couldn't hide his joy, and said, "I'm happy today, and I will cook a dish for you later, don't worry, it's not meat, but some fruits and greens leaf."

Linger shook her head.

Li Qidao: "What do you mean?"

Ling'er smiled and said, "Thank you for your kindness, but I only like to eat the fruit picked from the tree."

Hearing these words, Li Qi suddenly felt that he was a chef with broken wings, who had fallen from heaven.

This beauty wins his heart, and his cooking skills win his stomach.

It's all good.

In terms of appearance, although Li Qi is very confident, he has to admit that Linger's beauty has reached the point where he can ignore all appearances.

Even cooking doesn't play any role these days.

This is really both wings!
What a sad word!
