Chapter 345 Rich Ingredients
Chapter 345 Rich Ingredients
That's all Nangong Ya said. As the leader of the sect, she also knew that her ideas were somewhat unrealistic.
However, she remembered this matter for the time being, since Li Heng and the others would not leave in a few days anyway.
There is no rush in selecting the disciples to be sent to Tiandao Sect, so she can choose slowly.
A few people were chatting, and after bypassing a low wall, a medium-sized open-air lotus pond appeared in front of everyone.
The lotus pond is surrounded by a circle of artificial winding corridors. Looking around, there is a pavilion in the middle of the water, connected by a wooden bridge.
"This is where I usually practice music! How about it?"
Nangong Ya led everyone straight to the pavilion, admiring the scenery in the pond and asking everyone.
From her slightly proud expression, it is not difficult to tell that this is not a question, it is clearly showing off.
"Wow~ What a beautiful pond!"
"I can't even imagine how comfortable it must be to practice here!"
Su Lingxuan and others naturally gave Nangong Ya enough face, and praised her while looking at the scenery.
"Well, this layout is indeed much more beautiful than our Little Chef Peak."
Li Heng thought about the bare lake at the foot of Xiaochu Peak, which was completely incomparable to this place.
"It's just a pity that the lotus inside has already bloomed, otherwise it would have been even more beautiful."
Nangong Ya said with some regret that there were only some lotus leaves on the water as embellishment, which made it feel a little monotonous.
"Master Nangong is humble. Looking at it this way, we are already very satisfied."
Su Lingxuan also said politely to Nangong Ya. She wanted to say something else, but a cry attracted her attention.
"Gah~gah~gah~"
I saw a group of ducks swimming over from a distance. They seemed to have heard the noise in the pavilion and rushed over to watch the excitement.
Little did they know, it was this brief and curious glance that ultimately led them to waste their lives.
As an ingredient, he has no awareness of making ingredients, nor is he alert at all. He dares to take the initiative to hang out in front of the cook Li Heng.
"Hey! Sect Master Nangong also raised ducks. It seems that today's dinner is in order!"
Li Heng only took one look at the fat and white ducks raised by Nangong Ya, and immediately became excited.
Now even the beautiful scenery around him could no longer be discerned by him.
There were already a bunch of duck recipes in Li Heng's mind, which automatically emerged and he couldn't get rid of them.
"Crispy roast duck, beer duck, sour bamboo shoot duck, salted duck..."
No, it seems he has to eat duck tonight, otherwise his mind will endlessly replay these scenes.
Li Heng's fiery gaze made the ducks in the water smell a hint of danger.
Before they even got close to the pavilion, they turned around in a hurry and escaped from his sight. However, they were all discovered, so they tried to hide, but it didn't seem to be of much use.
"There are fish! Brother Li Heng, look, there are many fish in the water!"
Just when Li Heng was thinking about how to persuade Nangong Ya to let him catch a few ducks, the two ducks on the side suddenly shouted happily.
"What you two are talking about is nonsense. The things in the water are just fish. Could they be wild boars? What's all the fuss about!"
Li Heng didn't understand where the two little ones were excited. When he turned around, he found that they were lying on the railing, stretching their heads to look at the fish swimming over.
Maybe it's because they haven't been fished by anyone yet. This group of fish is just like the ducks before. They don't have much vigilance. When they see someone, they come over to join in the fun.
"No! The fish here are so big!"
"About this big."
Xiao Chi turned around and stretched out his arms hard towards Li Heng, trying to figure out how long the fish in the water was.
"Is it really that big? Let me see."
When Li Heng was in Xiaochu Peak, he and Xiaoyaozi often went fishing by the lake, but what they caught were all small fish that were several inches long.
He had never seen such a big fish like what Xiao Chi was gesturing on in this Xuanwu Continent.
"Giggle~Brother Li Heng, why aren't these fish afraid of people?"
Lu Xiaoxiao poked out a lotus leaf stem and was playing with the fish in the water, poking this one and then that one.
The fish were also very enthusiastic and kept blowing bubbles at the deer's mouth, probably looking for her to eat.
"It's probably because he is often fed!"
Li Heng walked to the edge of the pavilion, looked down, and found a group of fish about the same size as Xiao Chi.
"What a fat fish!"
Looking at the chubby fish several feet long in the pond, Li Heng couldn't help but praise it.
The word 'fat' is enough to highlight Li Heng's mood at the moment, which is a desire for food.
If nothing else, this group of fish will face the same fate as those ducks.
They are really a pair of brothers in need!
"Master Nangong, if I remember correctly, you promised me before that you can make any requests you want, right?"
Li Heng asked with a smile.
After all, these fish and ducks were raised by Nangong Ya, so it was still necessary to seek her opinion first.
"You, you don't really want to eat my fish and ducks, do you?"
Nangong Ya was at a loss for a moment.
On the one hand, she kept them so that she could pass the time with her when she was bored, but she never thought of eating them.
"I have been raising these fish and ducks for a long time..."
Nangong Ya was a little hesitant, but on the other hand, she didn't want to miss this opportunity to taste delicious food, not to mention that Li Heng was cooking it himself.
She had inquired, but even the disciples of Xiao Chu Feng could not eat the dishes cooked by Li Heng every day.
"I-I want to eat a whole one!"
After struggling for a while, Nangong Ya finally made a decision that was not very difficult.
After all, the ducks and fish can still be raised if they are gone.
If you miss this opportunity, you don’t know how long you will have to wait next time you want to eat Li Heng’s cooking.
"Farewell, my fish!"
"Farewell, my duck!"
Nangong Ya looked away, unable to bear to look at the fish in the water and the ducks hiding in the water, so she could only say goodbye to them silently in her heart.
"I'm just waiting for your words, Xiaoxiao and Xiaochi. You will go to the pond to catch some ducks later."
Since Nangong Yadu agreed, Li Hengran would not be polite to her and immediately gave instructions to the two little ones.
"okay!"
"Roger that!"
For small things like grabbing ingredients, the two little ones are happy to help.
"Oh, right!"
"I suddenly remembered a question, have you ever eaten lotus root?"
Li Heng looked at the lotus leaves on the water, and wanted him to find another ingredient. He just didn't know if people on the Xuanwu Continent had ever eaten this stuff.
"Lotus root? What is that? Have you heard of it?"
"No, is this some new ingredient we haven't heard of before?"
Everyone looked at me and I looked at you, all with doubts on their faces.
"It's the root of the lotus leaf!"
Li Heng pointed to the lotus leaf and said, it seems that 'lotus root' here should have a different name.
"So you're talking about lotus roots, but these things usually grow in the mud and look weird. Can they really be eaten?"
Nangong Ya suddenly realized, but she felt dirty even holding this thing with her hands, let alone eating it.
"Don't worry, if I say you can, I absolutely can. This is also a rare delicacy!"
Li Heng affirmed, and at the same time sighed in his heart, this trip to Miaoyin Sect was really not in vain, and he harvested three ingredients in just a short time.
