Chapter 158 A King is Pulled Out from the Lotus Root Pond 8
Qiao Mu carried the cooked noodles and said, "Baibai, send some food to Dahei and Dahuang."
"Hey!"
Due to the upgrade, his spiritual awareness expanded, directly covering the bowl of noodles and delivering it in the blink of an eye.
"Wash your hands and eat!"
Yu Baibai drove for two hours that night but didn't see any city. The result was...
"Can we really find the way in this desolate place?" This was Qiumu's soul-searching question.
Yu Yaozu and Yu Baibai, not knowing who had taken the wrong road, looked at each other silently, not daring to say a word, and silently ate the noodles in the bowl.
"Ah! Relying on you two, father and daughter, is really enough to make me angry to death! I just took a nap, didn't I? When I woke up, I turned into a savage!"
Qiao Mu was almost laughing out of anger. Today's hand-rolled noodles were particularly solid.
Yu Baibai smiled ingratiatingly:
"Mom! Eat your food! Anger is bad for your health. We should be more open-minded. After all, we were savages when we were fleeing famine!"
Qiao Mu glared at Yu Baibai, then started eating:
"Eat quickly, then look over there!"
After dinner, the three of them packed up and set off again.
This time Qiao Mu drove the car, Yu Baibai sat in the back looking at the map, and Yu Yaozu was responsible for memorizing the route.
This map was found by someone else when we were delivering something.
But now maps and other things are not allowed to appear in the hands of people below. This map has been hidden for quite a long time!
It was getting dark, but they still hadn't found the right direction.
It feels the same wherever I go.
Qiaomu stopped the car, took out the compass, looked at it, then looked at the sunless sky, frowning.
"Why don't we find a place to rest first and continue looking tomorrow," Yu Baibai suggested.
Qiao Mu sighed: "Oh! Let's set up camp!"
I have to say that it was thanks to their comprehensive preparations and Yu Baibai's treasure chest.
Put up two large tents and store the car in the space.
The weather is fine now, but it has started to get colder, so you still need to wear an extra layer.
The place where they parked was also good. There was a pond in the distance, and there seemed to be lotus roots in the lake.
There are a lot of dried lotus root stems and other things on the river surface.
Yu Baibai wanted to go down and touch the lotus root, and was eager to do so.
Anyway, there are thickened waterproof one-piece waders in the space, just put them on!
"Dad! Mom! We're not in a hurry to leave! I think there's a lot of lotus roots in the pond. Look! There's probably a lot of fish too!"
Yu Baibai pointed and became more and more excited as he spoke, and directly took out his waterproof waders.
Yu Yaozu said helplessly: "Then let's wait until tomorrow to dig it up! It's just the right time to make some more lotus root powder for you two."
Qiao Mu nodded: "Okay!"
Yu Baibai’s dreams were filled with abundant harvests of lotus roots, and even a large pile of tender white lotus stems and lotus seeds.
I almost woke up laughing in my dream!
Second day
Helps digest food after eating.
Yu Baibai quickly changed into waterproof waders and walked towards the pond.
He stepped into the water, cautiously exploring, feeling for the lotus root from time to time.
After a while, Yu Baibai touched a few thick lotus roots and cheered happily:
"Oh! It's really big!"
Qiao Mu and Yu Yaozu heard the sound and also came to the pond.
"We actually got quite a few lotus roots!"
As soon as Yu Yaozu saw what Yu Baibai was holding, he exclaimed, "The emotional value is much greater."
"That's true. Let's go down and dig together. Dig more and I'll make lotus root and pork ribs soup for you at noon!" Qiao Mu said with a smile.
Yu Yao's grandfather and daughter looked at each other:
"okay!"
Yu Baibai continued to grope in the pond, and more and more lotus roots were dug out.
By the way, I also pulled out the lotus stems.
Yu Baibai dug in the water more and more vigorously. He didn't know how his face got covered with black mud marks, just like a little cat.
In a short while, the shore was piled high with lotus roots.
At this moment, she suddenly felt as if something had hit her foot.
She looked down and found it was a big turtle.
"Wow! What a big turtle!" Yu Baibai shouted excitedly.
Qiao Mu and Yu Yaozu rushed over after hearing the noise and were also surprised when they saw the turtle.
"This turtle must be delicious," said Yu Yaozu.
Yu Yaozu's eyes lit up: "Great tonic!"
Yu Baibai used his spiritual sense to effortlessly catch the turtle ashore.
The whole family was delighted to see the big turtle.
"What a great harvest today!" Qiao Mu said with a smile, "Not only are there so many lotus roots, but there's also a big turtle. I can definitely fill up my warehouse with some more."
Yu Yaozu picked up the turtle and weighed it:
"Wow! This one must weigh at least four or five pounds, enough for us to have a good meal."
Yu Baibai looked at Qiao Mu expectantly: "Mom! Braised soft-shelled turtle!"
Qiao Mu nodded and said, "Okay, let's make braised soft-shelled turtle. It will definitely taste delicious. Let your father make this dish."
She really couldn't do anything about it, but she had to admit that the food Yu Yaozu cooked was really delicious and not at all sloppy.
The working hours are always long and boring, repeating over and over again, and even wearing a thick waterproof jumpsuit is of no use.
My hands were swollen and red after soaking in water.
Yu Baibai realized later that using his spiritual sense to wrap up the lotus root and then fish it out would save a lot of trouble.
The three of them worked together, and Yu Baibai dug out completely and quickly.
Qiao Mu and Yu Yaozu put the lotus roots into a large wooden basin and pulled it to the shore.
The efficiency is still very fast.
The sun is at its highest point.
The three of them were tired and hungry, especially Yu Baibai. She felt that her spiritual power was probably exhausted and her head was a little painful.
He quickly took out a mineral water bottle filled with spiritual spring water, unscrewed the cap and drank it.
The 'gulp gulp' sound didn't stop until the bottle was finished.
Only then did Yu Baibai feel much more comfortable.
Yu Baibai finished up at the back and put all the lotus roots and other things into the space.
Qiao Mu and Yu Yaozu brought the soft-shelled turtles and lotus roots back to the camp and started to get busy.
Qiao Mu was also busy, helping to wash lotus roots, cut ginger slices, etc.
Yu Yaozu skillfully cleaned the soft-shelled turtle and put it into the pot to stew.
Soon, bursts of fragrance began to waft from the iron pot set up in front of the camp.
The family of three sat around the round table that Yu Baibai had specially made, enjoying this rich and delicious meal.
Actually, this was because Yu Baibai envied other people's large carved beds. It took six years to make the bed.
But having a bed without other furniture is not enough!
Only then did someone watch as the complete set was made and kept in Yu Baibai's space.
Yu Baibai couldn't wait to pick up a piece of turtle meat and put it in her mouth to chew:
"Mmm, delicious! Dad, your cooking skills have improved again!"
Yu Yaozu looked at Yu Baibai's satisfied expression, feeling extremely proud. He scooped another small bowl of lotus root and pork rib soup made by Qiao Mu:
"If you like it, eat more. Then try the soup your mother made! It's so delicious!"
Yu Yaozu also poured himself a bowl and drank the lotus root soup while smiling and saying:
"You know what, I really enjoyed this meal today!"
Peace of mind! It’s so nice not to have to worry about anything. It frees my mind.
This is life!
