Chapter 11: talent
Xiao Yu took Cang Hai's hand to lead him the way, and put the spoils into Cang Hai's space ring one by one.
Among other things, at least for the next period of time, they will not be short of food.
Even if Cang Hai couldn't see it, he could still feel the joy of the little mermaid, and unconsciously, his emotions were also aroused.
He touched his swollen chest and was puzzled, how could a few sand crabs bring him such a sense of satisfaction.
You must know that he was on the battlefield, and the number of strange beasts that died in his hands never made him feel happy for a moment.
"What are you thinking? Are you thinking whether these crabs are steamed or braised?" Xiao Yu joked.
He can't wait to get a taste of these big guys, suck.
Cang Hai replied solemnly: "I'm thinking about where we will evacuate in the future. This place is no longer safe. We must find a safe place to stay."
As soon as the status quo was mentioned, Xiao Yu's mood fell back. He could feel the damage caused by the earthquake and tsunami to the planet.
If Huang Xing couldn't hold on anymore, he and Cang Hai couldn't even talk about the future.
In desperation, Cang Hai opened his arms to him: "Come on, let's go inland. Desolate Star is not big, but it is not small, so it doesn't even have a place to live."
Xiao Yu is very fortunate to have Cang Hai by his side at this moment, he can not think about the future, not worry about life and death, he only needs to completely trust Cang Hai, that's all.
The earthquake shifted the coastline inland by at least a few thousand meters. When Cang Hai went ashore with Xiao Yu on his back, the ground structure had changed from sandstone to hard soil.
Xiao Yu's eyes glanced over the chapped ground, the damage caused by the earthquake was particularly serious, so he had to remind Cang Hai to pay attention to his feet all the time.
This section of the road was stumbling, but fortunately, the further inland we went, the less damage to the surface.
Xiao Yu found a good place to rest. I don't know if the mountain here collapsed because of the earthquake or other reasons, and it happened to form a natural cave.
The cave is closed on three sides, leaving only one exit, which can prevent predators and keep warm at the same time.
Cang Hai had no objection to Xiao Yu's choice. After checking the space ring, he found that there was enough food, so he asked Xiao Yu what he wanted to eat.
The tentacles of the previously hunted black-bearded octopus are still left, and some meat of the hidden-winged mantis is still kept in the air dryer. These are delicious, but they cannot withstand the temptation of sand crabs to Xiao Yu.
He ordered the meal with great anticipation: "Can I eat sand crab?"
He has been thinking about those crabs for a long time. Besides, fresh ingredients should be eaten when they are at their freshest. Delaying for a moment is disrespectful to the ingredients.
Cang Hai has nothing to do with it: "Alright."
Sand crabs are huge and cannot be stewed in a pot. Cang Hai can only cut its crab claws into small pieces and put them in the pot for cooking.
As for the crab body, leave it for next time.
Xiao Yu squatted aside, staring eagerly at the crab legs in the pot, even the tightly seamed pot lid couldn't stop the burst of fragrance, so greedy that he only felt that every minute and every second was torment.
It is not easy to get water inland. Fortunately, Canghai filters the seawater into drinking water in advance and stores it for later use.
The filtered pure water seems to have a sweet aroma, and it seeps into the crab meat along with the stewing and seasoning in the cauldron.
The crab meat turned red at a speed visible to the naked eye, Cang Hai pinched the time: "Open the pot."
Xiao Yu cheered and couldn't wait to lift the lid.
The fresh fragrance came head-on with the steaming water vapor, fine drops of water oozed from Xiao Yu's forehead in an instant, he inhaled greedily, with an intoxicated expression on his face: "It smells so good!"
He first picked the biggest piece of crab leg meat for Cang Hai, and then it was his turn.
Regardless of the fact that the giant claws are covered with carapace, they look extremely hard, but the meat inside is incredibly tender, and they fall apart with a slight grip of the chopsticks. Put it in your mouth and chew it, and when the tip of your tongue sips, the crab meat turns into fibers rolling over the tip of your tongue.
The taste of crab meat is just one word, fresh, fresh to the extreme.
Xiao Yu has eaten a lot of seafood, but there is none like the crab meat in his mouth, which can fully stimulate the umami taste of seafood without complicated procedures, just simple cooking.
Take another sip of the soup stewed with crab meat, and the dragon liver and phoenix marrow are probably no more than that.
Xiao Yu's eyes narrowed after eating.
The taste of crab meat was so good that he couldn't help but eat more, stroked his full belly, and regretted it for a while.
If he got fat, wouldn't it be more difficult for Cang Hai to carry him?
But he couldn't stop eating. There were no entertainment items on Desolate Star, and the deliciousness of every meal was the only joy in his life.
At worst, let Cang Hai drag him away. Although his tail is sensitive, it is protected by scales. The skin is rough and thick, so it cannot be scratched.
After testing the concealment of the cave, Cang Hai was also very satisfied: "We will stay here temporarily for the past few days, and we will go around the coastline every day to look for space cracks, and come back to rest at night, what do you think?"
"Okay!" Xiao Yu replied simply, although he slept with Cang Hai at night, but in his opinion, having a small nest was better than anything else.
As long as there is shelter from the wind and rain, it is not considered a vagabond.
After a short rest, Cang Hai and Xiao Yu returned to the beach together.
"I feel that the sea water seems to be rising tide. These cracks were dry before, but now they are a little wet." Xiao Yu signaled Cang Hai to put him down. He rubbed the ground with his fingers, and the sticky feeling further confirmed his thoughts .
Cang Hai said in a deep voice: "Your feeling is correct. The earthquake changed the shape of the soil and created countless cracks. The seawater will flow inland through these cracks. In the end, the impact of the seawater will wash away the unstable soil. form rivers."
The rivers flowing through the inland will bring abundant rainwater to the inland. Perhaps after a while, flowers, plants and trees will grow in the inland, completely changing the barren status quo.
It's a pity that Huang Xing can't wait for that day.
"The next natural/natural disasters/disasters may be more frequent, and the strange beasts on the barren star will be more violent. You may be able to help a lot by exercising your mental power as soon as possible." Cang Hai said this, as if thinking of something , and asked him, "How is Cuili cutting going?"
Xiao Yu was taken aback for a moment, they were hunted down by sand crabs earlier, so he conveniently put Cui Li into the gun pocket.
Hearing this, he took out the energy gun and reached into his pocket to fumble, and sure enough Cuili was lying at the bottom of the pocket.
It was only when he took it out that he was dumbfounded, Cui Li had broken into two halves at some point.
"I'm sorry, I broke it, and I'll pay you back when I have money." Xiao Yu lowered his head, although Cui Li doesn't contain energy, but it's gorgeous in color and full of greenery, it's worth a lot in the jewelry market.
Didn't the original book say that Cui Li's hardness is very high, so why did he put it in his pocket, and it shattered when he was pressed by an energy gun?
Cang Hai took the Cui Li from Xiao Yu's hand and rubbed it carefully.
The incision is flat and smooth, and the emerald inner texture is obvious to the touch, which is by no means the result of physical cutting.
The only possibility is that the little mermaid cut it with mental power.
He rarely smiled.
The talent of the little mermaid is really amazing.
