After listening to Xia Yu's question, Abedo held his chin with one hand and fell into deep thought. It seemed that everyone had acquiesced in the fact that slimes would not be harmed by elements of the same attribute, but it seemed that everyone had no idea what the specific situation was. No scrutiny or research has been done.
"This is a good question and worth studying." Abedo nodded in agreement and looked at the clock on the wall, but his expression was somewhat troubled.
"Is there any problem?" Xia Yu asked Abedo as he looked at the other party and nodded seriously.
"Lisa doesn't like others to disturb her when she is resting. She should be taking a lunch break at this time. By the time I can visit her and ask her to help, I'm afraid it will have to wait until after afternoon tea."
This... Xia Yu also fell into silence after listening to Abedo's explanation.
Indeed, Lisa, as the librarian, always looked lazy when she went to the library of the Knights of the West Wind to borrow books.According to the Sumeru Order, Lisa was a rare genius in 200 years, but she only studied at the Order for two years before returning to Mondstadt.
Regardless of whether there is anything fishy about the study environment of Xumi's teaching academy, just the fact that Lisa gave up and came back to become a librarian can be seen that Lisa is a person who likes research and knowledge, but extremely hates it. Troublesome people.
"Are there any other holders of the Thunder-attribute Eye of God in the Mondstadt area that you know?" Xia Yu asked Albedo and looked at the other person spreading his hands.
"It's not that we don't know each other, but I'm afraid it will take more time to find these two people than we wait for Lisa to finish her afternoon tea." Abedo shook his head after giving the result. "Sheffield, who works in the Adventurers Association, has been out on investigation recently. According to Lei Ze, he is usually near the Running Wolf Territory. It will definitely take more than half a day to find the two of them."
It seemed that we could only wait until Lisa finished her lunch break and then slowly finish her afternoon tea before discussing this topic with her... Just when Xia Yu was about to give up and just wait until the afternoon, an idea came to Xia Yu's mind.
No, you can also chat at the tea party. You are the only one in the entire Mondstadt area who can raise monsters as freely as you do. If you can add some interesting stories about the little guys to the chat at the tea party, maybe it will arouse Lisa's interest. The advance invitation is considered completed.
However, no matter how you think about it, you can't attend other people's tea parties empty-handed. You also need to make some appropriate snacks and desserts.After thinking for a while, Xia Yu decided what exactly the small dessert needed to be made.
Try the simple but delicious pea cake and the sweet and soft golden cake with a certain toughness.
————————————————————————
Coconut, sweet nectar, tapioca flour, yeast, eggs, white sugar and yellow peas... When they came to the kitchen and prepared the raw materials, halfway through making, another problem put Xia Yu in trouble.
Although the making process of these snacks is not very complicated, they all pay attention to detail, such as pea cake. If you want a more delicate taste, the skin of soaked yellow peas must be cleaned, and then you can make it according to your own taste. Choose how much to grind it for the desired taste.
But because I had not considered making these snacks before, I did not ask blacksmith Wagner to customize professional tools such as egg beaters.Although using chopsticks is fine, if you are beating a large number of eggs at once, using chopsticks will definitely be much more laborious than using an egg beater.
Just as Xia Yu was debating whether to make a different snack, the wind slime drifting slowly from the window caught Xia Yu's attention.How about... try letting these little guys join in the cooking process?
"Little guy, come here." He waved to the wind floating in the air. Hearing his call, the wind quickly turned around and flew into the kitchen. After looking around for a while, he originally thought he could Feng Tuantuan, who had eaten some snacks, had a puzzled look on his face.
The puzzled expression on the little guy's face made Xia Yu couldn't help laughing. "Help me do a few things first, and I'll give you some gel cubes as snacks when you're done." After beckoning Feng Tuan Tuan to the operating table, Xia Yu pointed to the small egg liquid with the egg white and egg yolk in proportion. bowl.
"Can you release a small cyclone with adsorption capacity into it to stir it evenly?"
???
Feng Tuantuan, who heard this kind of instruction for the first time, felt a little confused. The little guy's round eyes were full of confusion. Through the mysterious runes on his right hand, he sensed the meaning of Feng Tuantuan looking at him. The little guy seemed to be waiting. Demonstrate it yourself.Then it's easy to imitate.
After picking up the chopsticks and vigorously stirring the egg liquid for a while, Xia Yu pointed at the egg liquid and said to the wind: "Just like this, just use the wind element to fully stir it evenly. Can it be done?"
After shaking the round body a few times, the emotion conveyed by the wind was full of understanding. After a small adsorption cyclone was formed above the bowl containing the egg liquid, the egg liquid in the bowl was like an hourglass flowing backwards. He was whipped up little by little by the cyclone in the air.
The golden egg liquid staying in mid-air was as if it was put into a chef's machine for stirring. After a while, the egg liquid was stirred extremely evenly and produced a small amount of tough foaming egg liquid, and then it was ready to be completed. and put it back into the bowl.
"Yes, that's it." He raised his hand and touched the little guy's head as an encouragement. Xia Yu, who started the follow-up process, began to look for the location of the fire balls.
Since the hearth-type oven cannot adjust the temperature of the upper and lower fires like modern ovens, the fire ball should also be of great help during the heating fermentation and subsequent production processes.
"Can you help me find the fire slime?" Xia Yu asked Feng Tuan Tuan as he watched Feng Tuan Tuan sway his round body up and down with certainty, and then flew out from the window. .
About half an hour later, when Xia Yu was pounding the soaked yellow peas with a stone mortar, Xia Yu's attention was attracted by the wind flying in from the window holding the fire balls.It seemed that the two little guys had already communicated with each other on the way here. After entering the kitchen, they looked directly at their own fire ball with their round eyes. Their eyes were full of expectation, as if they were waiting for their orders. Order.
"Wait a moment, this will prepare the working environment for you." Xia Yu took out the insulating stone slab and laid it on the operating table. He took out the stone pier bracket and placed the golden cake suspension that had been initially fermented. After the steel container was placed on top, Xia Yu, who fetched some heat insulation equipment, surrounded the stone pier to create a temporary small heating furnace that was heat-proof on three sides.
"Okay, come here." After signaling the little guy to the reserved heating position sealed on three sides, Xia Yu took out the thermometer Abedo made for himself.
Using the induction magic stone of the fire element and some unknown techniques of his own, Xia Yu placed the thermometer next to the fire ball. After signaling the fire ball to start heating, it turned into a bright red. The heat emitted by the little guy made the thermometer The pointer on the screen began to beat towards the big numbers step by step.
The key to making the golden cake have beautiful and transparent shark fin texture is here. When starting to heat it, only use the bottom fire.In this way, the bubbles that expand upward when encountering high temperatures will pull out beautiful vertical pores inside the golden cake.
If you want to perform refined operations to reduce the probability of failure, it is most stable to use slimes that can self-regulate the temperature as the heating tube for the bottom fire of the oven.After watching the thermometer reach the appropriate index, Xia Yu quickly said: "Okay, just keep the temperature like this and stay in it for a while. Is that okay?"
Huo Tuan Tuan, who had a comfortable expression on his face, seemed extremely satisfied with the 'dry sauna' that was surrounded by views and breathable scenery on three sides. After gently shaking his body up and down towards Xia Yu, he narrowed his eyes. Huo Tuan Tuan seemed to have started to take a nap.
That should be no problem.Xia Yu, who turned around to continue making pea cakes, found that Feng Tuantuan on the side seemed to be aware of what he was doing. Just as he was communicating and arranging with Huo Tuantuan, Feng Tuantuan on the side had already used a small cyclone to make the cake. Finished grinding yellow peas for myself.
The large bowl of slightly moist yellow pea powder placed in the bowl just met his needs for the next step of making. Xia Yu gently stroked Feng Tuantuan's smooth head with great appreciation, and then took it from the pocket on the side. He took out a few small pieces of gel and handed them to the little guy.
"Well done, you've already learned how to answer questions." After mixing the prepared wet pea flour with a certain amount of sugar and water, Xia Yu poured it into a small pot on the side and started to simmer it slowly over low heat.
Unexpectedly, letting these little guys join in the cooking process can save so much of his own production process. Xia Yu also felt very novel about cooperating in this way for the first time.
Let’s try to let them be our helpers in the future.
Chapter 154 Tea Party, Barbara who likes spicy food
About 10 minutes later, the finely ground and fully cooked pea cake was pressed into the mold. The hot and sweet smell made the corners of the mouths of those who are familiar with it curl up when they saw it.
Next, you only need to wait until it returns to normal temperature and then put it in the refrigerator to cool down and set. Making pea cake is so simple and extreme. You can either taste the delicate texture of sand when you sip it, or open and close it wide and keep a certain amount to soften it. Taste the bean aroma that blooms when you bite into the peas. It is a simple but exquisite delicious snack. It is perfect for afternoon tea time.
Then there is the golden cake with perfect vertical pores formed on the side. I wonder if the fire ball can adapt to it after being heated for so long?Xia Yu, who was slightly worried about the little one's condition, inexplicably heard a slight sound of air flowing like snoring. Looking in the direction of the sound, Xia Yu found a resting fire ball in the furnace.
It seems that because of the structure that is closed on three sides, the high temperature in the furnace is extremely suitable for the little guy. It is so comfortable that it is already a little out of shape. The satisfied expression on the fire ball pressed against the operating table makes Xia Yu really can't bear to disturb this. The little guy is taking a rest.
After carefully removing the golden cake shaping container from the partition, Xia Yu began to observe the directly heated bottom layer. Under the uniform firepower and temperature of the fire, the golden cake had initially completed its shape. One side already has a nice slightly orange color.
He turned the shaped golden cake over and put it back into the container to continue heating. After completing all the preparations, Xia Yu looked at his work with satisfaction.Xia Yu picked up the semi-finished pea cake and went to the refrigerator next to the hut, sealed it and put it in. After the little frozen tree transformed, the functional problem of the refrigerator that he was worried about was solved in another way.
Four small ball-like ice element structures were slowly rotating around the refrigerator, supplying ice-attribute energy. This skill developed by Xiao Qi helped him solve this problem that he was worried about before.Everything is ready and all we need is the east wind. With these snacks, it should be fine to talk to Lisa who comes to dine while selling lunch.
By the way, we also need to bring the two main characters, Rei Slimes.How could one be left behind as the protagonist of the discussion?
————————————————————————
As usual, lunch was about to end, and Lisa, who looked as lazy as if she had just woken up, came to her small shop after resting. "Miss Lisa, can we prepare meals at three-quarters of the standard portion as usual?" Xia Yu, who was already familiar with Lisa's habits, looked at the other party and nodded with great appreciation after asking.
"Well, that's right. Brother Xia Yu, you remember it very clearly." Lisa, whose tone was full of laziness, smiled. "After all, it's time to order dessert after the meal, and the portion size still needs to be controlled."
After briefly scanning a few tables that had been cleaned, Lisa picked a seat and walked over slowly. She raised her head and glanced at the good weather. Lisa, who was waiting for Xia Yu to make lunch, was a little distracted. .
This is the life of a librarian I want~
In the morning, I go to the library and take stock of the books that are about to be returned. I keep them in my mind, and then I can leisurely sip tea while reading the books that interest me.When it was almost noon, I leaned back on the lounge chair and squinted for a while to regain my energy, and then slowly walked to the restaurant I selected for lunch.
I walked slowly back to the library for a post-meal digestion exercise, and at the same time invited a few friends who also had free time to have a cup of afternoon tea, chat while eating some snacks, and then start the afternoon work...
Sure enough, this kind of life is more suitable for me. As long as there are no people who refuse to return books after the due date, the slow-paced librarian life is really great!
"Miss Lisa, are you thinking about something happy?" Xia Yu's voice and the smell of the food brought Lisa back from praising life.Looking at Xia Yu who personally served her the food, a playful smile appeared on Lisa's face.
"It's rare that today, brother Xia Yu, you personally delivered the cooked food. Are you interested in me, sister?" Lisa, who was teasing, looked at Xia Yu who was stunned for a moment, and then laughed softly. .
"Miss Lisa, this kind of joke is not allowed..." Xia Yu seemed a little embarrassed when he was suddenly asked like this, but at least it opened up the topic. "It's like this. I have some questions related to Reslime and I would like to ask Miss Lisa for help. It's not too troublesome and it's like a fun conversation. To express my gratitude, I also made some snacks as a reward. , I hope you will enjoy the afternoon tea time later."
oh?Xia Yu's words caused Lisa to recall some past events.Looking for a person with the thunder attribute god's eye to ask about Ray Slime, a feeling called helplessness spread in Lisa's heart.
Although as a librarian, I don’t like to go out of Mondstadt very much, but sometimes when I encounter an emergency, or when I think of some problem and go to Longji Snow Mountain to communicate with Albedo, I still need to go out. of Mondstadt.
So, what is the monster that I can't do anything about in Mondstadt and on the way to Dragon's Back Snow Mountain?Except for the formless thunder that stays in place and does not move much, it is the thunder slime that can often be encountered in the Mondstadt area.
There is nothing that can be done against these thunder slimes with magic attacks that also have the thunder attribute. Moreover, he is only a frail magician and cannot compare to Little Amy and Lei Ze, who also have the thunder attribute God's Eye.One of these two people has superb archery skills, and the other can wield a huge two-handed sword. It is impossible for him to smash these slimes with a magic book.
However, what Xia Yu wants to say is not just the fact that lightning-type attacks cannot harm Thunder Slime. What kind of interesting news will he get?
"Brother Xia Yu, please follow me to the rest area in the garden behind the Knights of the West Wind in a moment." After inviting Xia Yu with a smile, Lisa secretly made a decision in her heart.
If you really just ask yourself such a tasteless question as to why the holder of the Eye of Thunder Elemental God cannot cause damage to Thunder Slime, then it’s time to strike.
————————————————————————
After cleaning up the shop, he took out the shaped pea cakes from the refrigerator, and packed the sliced and steamed golden cakes in the steamer. After finding two thunder balls, just when Xia Yu was about to be invited to the Knights of the West Wind, he helped Mona After cleaning up the dining area, the gusts of wind drifted over.
It seems that because he found that both hands and shoulders of Xia Yu were occupied, the little guy who was looking for a place to land stopped on top of Xia Yu's head and kept looking at the curious little guy with the snack in Xia Yu's hand. The emotion was conveyed to Xia Yu, and it seemed that the little guy was very interested in what kind of food he helped make.
"Wait a moment, I'll give you something to try when we get to the West Wind Knights." After calming down the extremely excited Feng Tuantuan, Xia Yu walked up the stone steps to the headquarters of the West Wind Knights.After asking the two guards about Lisa's location, Xia Yu successfully arrived at the small garden at the back.
In what seemed to be a small garden that had been carefully tended, Barbara, who was chatting with Lisa, looked very happy. After noticing Xia Yu's arrival, the girl looked at him with slightly doubtful eyes. Lisa on the side.
"Sister Lisa, Mr. Xia Yu, he is..."
"Because Brother Xia Yu said he had some interesting things to share, and he also brought some snacks that he had never seen before, so I invited him to come with me." Lisa turned her eyes to Barbara after explaining. He turned to Xia Yu, who was putting snacks on the small round table, and then asked: "Brother Xia Yu, what kind of drink do you want? Black tea, juice, or should you try Barbara's special drink?"
ha?Does Barbara have any other unique flavors that she likes?Although he was curious about what kind of drinks Barbara liked, Xia Yu always felt that Lisa seemed to have dug a hole for herself.
"A cup of black tea first, thank you." After taking off the three slimes on his shoulders and head and placing them on the round table, Xia Yu opened the snack box he brought.
The bright golden cake reflects an extremely beautiful luster under the sunlight. The vertical air holes that open up make the golden cake look extra fluffy. The tangy coconut scent makes people want to eat; after solidification, it is eaten. The delicate light yellow surface of the pea cake cut into squares and the slightest hint of air-conditioning are also particularly conspicuous among the snacks on this table.
What a delicate little snack!The pastries they had never seen before made Lisa and Barbara's eyes brighten. After each took out a piece they liked and put it into their mouths to taste, both of them had expressions of enjoyment on their faces.
"It's delicious, with a cool texture. The combination of bean aroma and sweetness makes this small yellow cube taste like the aroma of the ingredients themselves. The most important thing is how are these fine powders ground? When you taste it, After the sand melted in the mouth and dispersed, there was no excessive graininess at all!" Barbara sighed and seemed to like the pea cake very much, and the eyes of the girl who asked Xia Yu were full of curiosity.
"This little guy helped with the grinding." After listening to Barbara's question, Xia Yu pointed to Feng Tuan Tuan beside him, took out a small piece and handed it to the little guy who had been waiting for a long time. He looked at Feng Tuan Tuan eagerly. Xia Yu couldn't help but laugh as he ate the whole pea cake in a hurry.
"First soak the peas in water to swell, and then let the wind slime grind the soaked pea particles by adsorption, stirring and cutting. In this way, you can get extremely fine pea powder." He explained to the girl. Xia Yu glanced at Lisa who was still intoxicated by the taste of the golden cake. Lisa, who was slowly tasting the steamed golden cake, seemed to be still enjoying the cake and showed no sign of asking questions for the time being.
In this case, I could first ask Barbara what her favorite special drink is.I have to say, in terms of color alone, that light red drink is indeed a bit weird.
"Xia Yu, are you curious about my special drink?" As if she noticed Xia Yu's slightly confused eyes as he looked at the small cup in his hand, Barbara showed a look of expectation on her face, and then asked To: "Xia Yu, do you like spicy food?"
Spicy food?Of course!After nodding his head without hesitation, Xia Yu found that the luster in the girl's eyes became obviously brighter.
"Wait..." Xia Yu seemed to have discovered something wrong when he reacted.
First of all, there was the way Lisa obviously wanted to prank her when she mentioned Barbara's special drink, and then the girl's happy expression after she answered that Barbara liked chili peppers. Combining these two points, Barbara made It’s easy to tell what the special drink tastes like.
"Barbara, the special drink you like...isn't it spicy?" After asking, Xia Yu fell into a daze after looking at the girl's happy smile.
"That's right, it's a particularly refreshing spicy drink made with a little Jueyun pepper juice. Considering that I still need to protect my voice when singing, I added a small amount of sweetness to it at everyone's suggestion. Flowers as a pairing..." Barbara explained her way of pairing special drinks, leaving Xia Yu at a loss as to what to say.
To be fair, there are foods that match sweetness and spiciness in the world. For example, the spiciness of Kung Pao chicken is paired with the sweetness and sourness, and the soy sauce flavor of some spicy braised vegetables has a slightly sweet undertone. taste.There are many examples of combining spicy and sweet flavors.
As a dipping sauce, Thai sweet and spicy dipping sauce is also a good example of sweet and spicy combination.
It's just that this sweet and spicy drink... Xia Yu really can't imagine how it tastes when he takes a big gulp of the spicy drink.And the chili used in this chili is Jueyun chili pepper...
To be honest, it is because there are not many people in Mondstadt who can eat spicy food, so the overall cooking style is more popular and home-cooked. As a result, suddenly a person who can directly eat spicy food has emerged from the Mondstadt people who generally cannot eat spicy food. People who challenge the ceiling of the world within their own knowledge.
It's awesome in every sense of the word...
What exactly does Barbara's favorite spicy drink taste like? Xia Yu's curiosity was aroused for a while. Would you like to try it?After thinking for a moment, Xia Yu finally decided to try it to see what the combination of sweet flowers and Jueyun pepper taste like. "Give me a small cup to try." Xia Yu said to Barbara and saw that the smile on Barbara's face became even brighter.
"Okay, I'll prepare this for you Xia Yu."
Chapter 155 There is always Ray Slime who dares to face the power of the sky
A glass of orange-red and translucent drink, because it is tasted with snacks, no ice cubes or other accompaniments are added to the drink to cool it down.After picking up the special drink with Jueyun pepper and sweet flowers handed over by Barbara, Xia Yu, who was not in a hurry to taste it, first sniffed the smell of this unique pepper drink.
The whole drink does not have the pungent smell of chili peppers as expected. It seems that the Jueyun pepper juice added is not as much as expected. In comparison, the sweetness of sweet flowers and the fragrance of mint are very obvious. , after taking a small sip, the cool feeling and slightly sweet taste make people feel refreshed.
Within a few seconds, the hot feeling spread throughout the entire mouth like a blanket of fire after lighting catkins.Although the spiciness is not too strong, after just experiencing the refreshing and sweetness, the spiciness of Jueyun Pepper only took a moment to lift everyone's spirits.
What a special feeling!If you want to ask yourself how the drink tastes, it can indeed be considered delicious, but the spiciness, which is like launching a surprise attack, is indeed not acceptable to many Mondstadt people.After tasting Barbara's special spicy drink, Xia Yu was surprised that Barbara liked the taste.
"It tastes good. This is within my acceptance range." After giving his evaluation to Barbara, Xia Yu asked the girl with a bit of joy on his face: "Barbara, it stands to reason that it's not There probably aren’t many people in Mondstadt who can tolerate the spiciness of the Jueyun pepper produced in the Mondstadt region. How did you come to like the taste of Jueyun pepper?”
"Well..." The girl who was asked was a little evasive, as if she was a little embarrassed to answer. After hesitating for a while, Barbara decided to tell the reason.
"Actually, I wasn't used to the spiciness of Jueyun Chili Pepper at first. It's just because I was very busy with the work of the West Wind Church. After work, there were still many people looking forward to my singing. After I heard that Jueyun Chili Pepper has refreshing properties, After it took effect, I tried adding some of it to my drinks, and I got used to the spiciness."
It turned out to be like this. After listening to Barbara's explanation, Xia Yu was filled with emotions...
After all, this is Barbara's own choice, and it's not easy for her to say those words to let her rest more.Just like her sister Qin, and Noelle who has always helped her, everyone in Mondstadt is just like what Wendy said, everyone chooses their own life with their own determination. There is really a big gap between this kind of freedom of choice and Liyue area.
"Hmm~ Brother Xia Yu, the two snacks you brought are quite good." After tasting the pea cake and golden cake, Lisa joined the conversation and glanced at the three people on the table who were sharing snacks. Slime's Lisa has taken an interest in these little guys.
This was the first time I saw slime eating human food.Since slimes in the wild are very vigilant and have a certain sense of territory, usually they will be attacked by these little guys after getting close to a wild slime.
Except for the enviable existence of Xia Yu...
According to the Honorary Knight, Xia Yu will not arouse the vigilance of these little guys at all when he encounters these monsters. Some slimes with lively personalities or scammers will even take the initiative to say hello to him with a friendly appearance. It's like meeting the neighbors passing by.
But I go to Xia Yu's shop for lunch every day. After observing him for so long, I haven't seen any difference between him and ordinary people... It just so happens that during this afternoon tea break, Xia Yu must be related to slimes. You need to discuss the problem with yourself, and you can also learn about the living habits of these little guys.
"So, brother Xia Yu, what is the interesting thing about Rei Slime that you want to tell me?"
Finally got to the point.Xia Yu, who was about to explain, first held the two little guys in front of him, and then said: "Miss Lisa, you should also know that hitting slimes with corresponding attributes with pure elemental attacks has no effect. Bar."
Indeed, Lisa nodded dejectedly after listening to Xia Yu's explanation.
Slimes with the same attributes are like a nightmare to spellcasters. Although these round little guys may not be able to catch up with you who are trying to escape because they do not move very fast, you can see them in the wild. They really can't think of any way to solve them...
"Then, Miss Lisa, have you considered that these slimes will definitely collide with elemental attacks when they are attacked by the same attribute? Why are they unscathed? What is the reason why these slimes are hit by these attacks? Is the elemental power contained eaten as a snack, or is it simply ineffective because the elemental attributes are the same."
This... Lisa shook her head after listening to Xia Yu's question.
Indeed, as Xia Yu said, attacks using the same elemental attributes against slimes are ineffective. Under normal circumstances, this kind of information has been regarded as common sense and few people pay attention to the subsequent situation. The question raised by Xia Yu is So far, no one has published any relevant research articles.
