I became an old man in my leisure time

"Xiong Xiaoxiao stood up to say goodbye, and said hello to Wang Xiaomai's family when he left.

Instead of leaving in a hurry, she found an empty house in Blessed Land to stay temporarily, and went to discuss martial arts with Wang Maimai every day after dawn.

After five days of this, both of them had a great time chatting and gained a lot, and Xiong Xiaoxiao just said goodbye.

Wang Xiaomai told her to come and walk around when she had time and send Baili away in person.

Xiong Xiaoxiao walked along the seaside, all the way south until he reached Blue Bay City, and then turned west to Bihai City.

After going to Yuxianju to have a few meals with Song Wuniang, she then headed north and entered the Western Wilderness leisurely.

I went back to Xiongjiacheng for a walk and visited relatives and friends I hadn’t seen for many years.

Only then did she realize that some old people she knew well had passed away, but she could no longer see them.

Xiong Xiaoxiao was only slightly sentimental about this, not sad at all.

It is now fifty years since Daxin. If people who have reached adulthood in Dawu cannot be promoted to the third round of power, their basic life span will be within these twenty years.

However, the past fifty years in Daxin have been almost calm and peaceful. It is a rare good day in hundreds of years.

Being able to retire and die in this environment is far happier than those who died early in the monster war.

After returning to Xiongjiacheng for a month, Xiong Xiaoxiao set off again and arrived at Taiping New City.

Li Xiuer went out and was not in the new city. Xiong Xiaoxiao didn't stay too long and turned to the west, heading straight for the Jade Dragon Blessed Land.

This is the place where Xiong Xiaoxiao stayed for a long time before going out to explore, and many of the Xiong family's closest blood relatives are here.

Coming back here is no different from going home.

She was not in a hurry to contact her eldest sister, so she stayed at Yulong Cave Mansion, working from dawn to dusk with the Xiong family.

Xiaoman heard Gu Ke say that she was adjusting her state, so she gave up the idea of ​​disturbing her little sister.

As long as the little girl is promoted to the Martial God Realm, there will still be many days of playing around in the future.

Gu Ke is not worried about his sister-in-law's promotion. There are more than one or two people in the cave who have been promoted to the Martial God Realm, so it is absolutely foolproof.

It's amazing how easy it is to die wherever you want after being seriously injured and sleeping for decades.

At this moment, he and Xiao Man were wandering around in the world of monsters and ghosts.

The main reason is that Xiaoman found out about Yuezu's bloodline a few days ago and pestered him to look for it together.

In a forest composed of twisted and gloomy trees, all kinds of weird flowers and plants are growing on the ground.

Although they are weak, they still work hard to add jagged edges or sharp thorns, otherwise they will have a pungent smell and a tough taste.

All in all, they don't want to be eaten at will, so they can only use this lose-lose skill.

A nest of gray rabbits ignored the defensive measures of these strange flowers and plants and happily chewed their serrated leaves into their mouths.

At the same time, they avoid sharp thorns and don't care about smell and taste.

In other words, they have evolved another set of taste and smell that can block the odor of these flowers and plants.

As long as the nutrition is rich enough, they can chew on these wild flowers and weeds for most of the day.

After all, these are already the most harmless plants in the world of monsters and monsters, and they are also the only ones that rabbits can "crush".

Xiao Man and Gu Ke squatted on the branches above the group of rabbits, talking with their spiritual thoughts: "It looks dirty, but I don't know if it tastes good or not."

Gu Ke: "This rabbit is not cute, why should you eat it?"

Xiaoman regretted: "I thought there would be white-haired rabbits, or even silver-haired rabbits like mine. Just thinking about it makes people feel that it tastes good."

Gu Ke: "You are judging people by their appearance, not rabbits. A real rabbit doesn't care about its gorgeous fur, as long as it has a rich interior."

Xiao Man was suspicious: "Really? Then next time I make the sauce, you won't use some weird adjectives, right?"

Gu Ke: "...I don't want to either, but occasionally some "clean and hygienic" memories are brought back. Okay, do you want to continue watching, or eat rabbits?"

"Eat." Xiao Man replied without hesitation: "Anyway, I have seen enough. If you eat it, you might be able to absorb some of Yuezu's bloodline power."

Gu Ke didn't even bother to expose the reason for his gluttony: with the little blood power of this gray-furred moon rabbit at the bottom, wouldn't it take hundreds of millions of them to taste it?

This is just like a certain kind of food containing extremely poisonous food, and a person will die if he eats several tons of it in one go. It is pure nonsense.

Raise your hand and wave,

Under the harmony of heaven and man, their bodies were stiff and unable to move.

Xiaoman picked around and selected a few of them, both large and small, and explained: "This rabbit meat is not very oily, and the old ones will definitely not taste good. It is best to choose the ones that are only a year or two old."

Gu Ke didn't take it seriously. When it came to eating, Xiao Man was now more and more responsible for educating him.

Although he knew more about cooking than she did, most of them stopped at knowing the facts. Knowing the reasons was too time-consuming, so he could only find time to learn.

Xiaoman took out an ironwood knife.

This is her favorite substitute for a small stone knife. As a chef, it is very awkward to cook without a kitchen knife.

The knife quickly passed through the necks of several rabbits to bleed them.

Then peel off the rabbit skin and throw it away, revealing rabbit meat that is different from the red color of pork, but slightly white or pink.

Take out the internal organs and throw them into the secret realm together with the previous fur - these kitchen wastes are also considered to be rich in the basic substances of the soul source, and there can never be too much in the secret realm.

Gu Ke drew the water from the spiritual spring at the right time, and a few clean rabbits were ready.

Xiaoman casually skewered them on a stick and handed it to Gu Ke.

Gu Ke had an idea and took out a pile of charcoal from the secret realm and put a few rabbits slightly above the charcoal.

The invisible heat immediately made the rabbit meat sizzle.

Xiaoman also took out the seasoning oil and quickly brushed the rabbit's body with a small brush.

Rabbits are too thin and have little fat.

Although this gray-haired moon rabbit is a monster, it is in a similar situation.

After all, they are at the bottom of the food chain, so how dare they accumulate too much fat? That would not only make it inconvenient to escape and hide, but also make them the first choice of other predators.

What really affects the number of gray-haired moon rabbits is never the monster generals and monster kings, but other monster tribes that are also inferior or at the bottom of the monster soldiers.

Therefore, over the years, the rabbits have been committed to making themselves less delicious.

Unfortunately, there are more things in the world of monsters that are more unpalatable than them. Although the moon rabbit escaped the evaluation of "best taste", it is still one of the first choices.

Moreover, Xiaoman has studied them and knows that most of the strange smell of the moon rabbit comes from blood and glands.

Generally, these two things contain some ingredients from the exotic flowers and plants they eat, some of which are unpalatable and some are even poisonous.

For the lower-level monsters who are used to eating alive, this is undoubtedly a good way to protect themselves.

But for Xiaoman, it is just a matter of spending more effort in processing and bleeding, and removing the blood and glands as much as possible.

In this way, the peculiar smell of the moon rabbit will be reduced by more than 80%, and combined with heavy-tasting spices, it can basically be eaten.

Gu Ke used his mind to control the wooden stick with the rabbit in mid-air, and evenly heated it on the charcoal fire.

Xiaoman kept brushing oil, and then turned out auxiliary ingredients such as apple juice, lemon juice, ginger and garlic water, and penetrated them into the rabbit meat.

The seasoning and meat fragrance mixed together and drifted far away.

…

Two figures were fleeing madly in the distance.

A large group of big-faced wolves followed closely behind them, with huge heads and huge mouths, and huge cold and interlaced canine teeth in their mouths, as if they wanted to chew the two people to pieces.

In fact, the rest of their companions were already dead, otherwise there would be twice as many big-faced wolves chasing them at this moment.

One of the two was older, a burly man in his fifties, and the brocade clothes he wore were not cheap.

The other was a young man, probably in his early twenties, also dressed in extraordinary clothes, with some of the meaning of a young master.

But at this moment, his handsome face was full of despair: "Second Uncle, put me down, you go first. If I get away, my family will know what happened."

The man called Second Uncle just shook his head: "We killed a lot of big-faced wolf cubs, they will not let any of us go."

As they spoke, the two slowed down a little unconsciously.

Several big-faced wolves suddenly accelerated and bit towards them.

The two men were full of blood and swung their weapons, slashing at the big-faced wolves that were attacking them fiercely.

The big-faced wolves that were coming with great momentum seemed to have guessed half of it, and almost all of them moved their feet in a strange way in the air.

The middle-aged second uncle was old and fierce, and his long sword seemed to have expected it. He followed closely and pierced the heads of the two big-faced wolves with two swords.

The young man’s strength and experience were too different, and he was really dodged by the big-faced wolves that besieged him.

Not only did he temporarily lose control of his center of gravity, but he also left a gap. The two big-faced wolves immediately cut in, and their big mouths full of fangs bit his upper body.

This bite, if the young man didn’t die, he would lose half of his life.

The middle-aged second uncle suddenly shouted and kicked.

A small black shadow wrapped in blood and light shot over quickly, and with two pops, it pierced the head of the big-faced wolf in front of the young man.

The young man was refreshed and quickly retreated, moving closer to his second uncle.

Compared to him, who was only at the second round and sixth level, his second uncle at least had the strength of an old-fashioned martial arts master, and the efficiency of killing monsters on both sides was not at the same level.

But the powerful second uncle felt bitter.

The attack just now was a mechanism that only special leather boots have. The tip of the leather boots is a slightly pointed piece of iron wood, which is usually used to prevent kicking hard objects, and can also kick the monster's head in battle.

Only in an emergency can the blood be stimulated to shoot out this hard iron wood boot tip.

Without the iron wood boot tip, the threat of his leg skills to monsters will be reduced by half.

The nephew had to be saved, and he complained secretly while keeping a calm expression: "Don't stop, keep running. Don't give them a chance to surround you."

When fighting with fewer people against more, the most taboo thing is to put yourself in an encirclement, so you have to be alert to attacks from all directions at all times.

As long as they don't surround them, the threat of the big-faced wolf to the two is only in the direction behind them.

The two people with deep hatred and hatred chased and fought with the pack of wolves all the way, crossing hundreds of miles.

The blood of the middle-aged second uncle and the young master was dim, and there were many more wounds on their bodies, but they didn't even have the chance to stop and stop bleeding.

Seven or eight strong and elite big-faced wolves behind them died, and they kept biting and not retreating because of the pressure from the wolf king.

Both sides gradually began to enter the stage of being at the end of their rope, but they tried their best to delay, trying to drag the other side down and get the final victory.

Suddenly, a strange fragrance came.

The second uncle, who was running with his nephew, shuddered all over, and his body instinctively felt a desire.

He subconsciously changed his pace and rushed towards the direction of the fragrance with his nephew.

Delicious food? He didn't care, but the fragrance seemed to contain something comparable to the best precious medicine, which was extremely desired by his blood-deficient body.

When the big-faced wolf king who was chasing him arrived, he hesitated.

It was a demon king with enough self-awareness, and vaguely felt that the fragrance was a bit like the banquet held by some demon kings.

It was hard to say whether he would be retaliated for stepping into the territory of other demons.

Unfortunately, it couldn't let go of the hatred of humans slaughtering wolf cubs. Finally, it howled long and called its men to chase in a new direction.

Fortunately, this delay gave the two people in front some breathing time.

The middle-aged second uncle and the young master took out the precious medicine that they hadn't had time to use before, applied it externally and internally, and tried to recover as much as possible to deal with the next chase.

But the two of them healed their wounds while running, and their footsteps followed the smell of meat unconsciously.

When they saw the fire and Gu Ke and Xiao Man who were roasting rabbits there, the uncle and nephew were stunned on the spot.

For a moment, they didn't know whether to say that the other party was courting death, courting death, or courting great death!

Compared with the monsters, the spices used by people are too complex and too many, which can be called unique.

Dare to play like this in the deeper part of this monster world, such a fragrance will most likely attract all kinds of monsters to check.

The fire where Gu Ke and Xiao Man are located seems calm, but sooner or later it will become a feeding ground for monsters.

In other words, this uncle and nephew have just escaped from the wolf's den and stepped into the tiger's den.

After realizing this in an instant, the middle-aged second uncle almost wanted to cry out: Hurry up! Why am I so unlucky today? It's like God wants me to die.

But because he was in the demon world and had a force field for his fellow tribesmen, he immediately warned them: "You two can't roast any more, hurry up, you will soon be besieged by a large group of monsters."

"There are a group of big-faced wolves following us, they will catch up in a short time, you two should hide first."

The middle-aged uncle no longer asked these two to help him, but was thinking about how to survive the monster siege later.

Gu Ke didn't care, just nodded slightly, indicating that he knew, and turned his face back.

Xiao Man looked at the roasted rabbits intently, and finally pointed out one: "This lemon juice crispy rabbit, try it first."

As she said that, she tore off a rabbit leg and fed it to Gu Ke.

Gu Ke took only one bite and shook his head decisively: "You used too much lemon. The sour taste suppressed the flavor of the rabbit. This lemon juice crispy rabbit can only be considered good at best."

Xiao Man took back the rabbit leg in disbelief, bit off a piece, then another, and finally finished the roasted rabbit leg, then nodded and admitted: "It was indeed a mistake. Ordinary exotic lemon juice is enough for this moon rabbit."
