Don't Starve, my pickaxe can be upgraded

Chapter 181 White Rice Porridge

"Sir, what about us?" Wu Yuanguang couldn't help but ask.

Wu Yuanming also looked at Liu Hen expectantly, as if he also wanted a formal position.

"you?"

Liu Hen looked at Wu Yuanming and said, "My arrangement for you is to form a caravan with Hu Jinshi in the future. Of course, if you don't want to, I can also make other arrangements."

"We are willing." Wu Yuanming said quickly.

Wu Yuanguang opened his mouth, but held it back. He decided to listen to his elder brother.

As for the two younger sisters, just let them enjoy themselves in the travel village.

"That's fine."

Liu Hen called Zong Ni over again and explained the food preparation process. Finally, he said, "If you need any food in the future, just tell them and don't look for me again."

"Okay." Zong Ni nodded.

Liu Hen looked at Wu Yuanxia, ​​who had chosen the cooking stove, again and said, "You can also try researching food recipes when you have time, but you have to find the research materials yourself. I won't provide them. If you can develop a new recipe that is useful, I will reward you handsomely."

Because rice, fish, meat, etc. are all good things, he couldn't let Wu Yuanxia waste them as experimental materials.

"Yes, Village Chief!"

Wu Yuanxia quickly assured: "Yuanxia will definitely study hard."

"Sir, does this also need to be studied?" Wu Yuanbai asked.

"As long as you operate it normally, it's fine. There's nothing worth studying."

Liu Hen said, "Of course, if you come up with something new, this village chief will also reward you."

"Thank you, sir." Wu Yuanbai nodded.

Liu Hen was preparing to cook food and couldn't wait to learn how to make rice.

Suddenly, Hu Jinshi, who was nearby, called out, "Village Chief, are the flowers of paradise ready to be harvested?"

"Ah yes..."

Liu Hen's heart tightened. He had been busy these past two days and had actually forgotten about this matter.

"It's only more than half a day, so it should be fine, right?"

He hurried back to the spiritual field and realized that he had been so anxious to make rice that he forgot to plant the rice after harvesting it.

But now let’s harvest the flowers of paradise first.

The paradise flower in front of me has grown to a height of two meters. At first glance, it looks like a mutant sunflower.

But the stem of this paradise flower is completely black, with a lot of mucus on it, and the stem does not have only one flower like a sunflower, but nine.

In addition to the largest flower at the top, which is in the middle, there are eight other flowers around it.

The eight surrounding flowers are like stars surrounding the moon, guarding the flower in the middle.

The amazing thing is that these flowers are not particularly beautiful at first glance, but coupled with that special fragrance, people feel that the flowers in front of them are simply magnificent, as if the most beautiful things in the world are no more than this.

"Sir, there is only half a day left for the flowering period," Hu Jinshi reminded.

He had called Liu Hen once before, but Liu Hen was busy helping Xiao Heishi upgrade his thermal suit and ignored him.

“Harvest immediately.”

Liu Hen thought about it and directly harvested the flowers of heaven.

[Petals of exquisite Paradise Flower +9]

【Exquisite Paradise Flower Seeds +30】

[Ordinary Paradise Flower Petals +64]

【Pine Nut Candy +10】

A total of four types of materials were harvested.

'There are so many seeds?'

Liu Hen was delighted, and then took out Hu Jinshi's portion and handed it to him: "These are yours. There's only one this time, so it's okay to give you a few more. Four petals of ordinary Paradise Flower, and one petal of a fine Paradise Flower. I won't give you the pine nut candy this time, since you've already eaten this kind of thing anyway."

"Thank you, sir." Hu Jinshi was delighted and quickly took the five petals. As the five petals were exposed, a special fragrance came to his face.

Everyone was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but think of some beautiful things in their minds.

However, because it was just the scent of flowers and no inhalation was done, no hallucinations occurred.

Liu Hen took out a silver-white hoe and handed it to Hu Jinshi: "From now on, you can plant the heaven flowers yourself. With this hoe, you can harvest them yourself. You don't need to call me the village chief anymore."

As he spoke, he took out all thirty seeds and handed them to Hu Jinshi.

"Yes, Village Chief." Hu Jinshi quickly took the hoe and seeds.

What surprised him was that these thirty seeds were all the best of the best.

He suspected that the paradise flowers grown from this kind of seeds might all be of high quality, and there would be no ordinary paradise flowers.

The moment he picked up the hoe, he was suddenly stunned because several grids appeared in his mind.

These grids are closely related to the silver-white hoe in your hand and can only be used to place seeds or harvest crops.

"Wow... this is amazing. I don't even need to plant manually. I just need to walk over with a hoe and plant directly..."

This method is simply unheard of, and the most important thing is that he is not a person with super powers, but he has this magical ability because of a hoe.

"Just don't forget the village chief's share."

Liu Hen suddenly took out a hundred rice seeds and handed them to Hu Jinshi: "In the empty spiritual fields over there, except for the thirty pieces left for planting the heaven flowers, the rest can be used to plant rice. Plant them quickly."

"Yes, village chief." Hu Jinshi hurried to work.

Liu Hen turned and walked towards the campfire. He was just cooking rice, so he didn't need a cooking stove.

During this process, he took out some rice and observed it, and found that the inside of the blood-red rice was actually normal off-white rice.

That’s right, the color of this rice is off-white, very similar to the rice on Earth in the previous life, not the blood red color as previously imagined.

Soon, he came to the bonfire at the source of the village and opened the cooking interface of the bonfire.

Looking at the four ingredient slots on the cooking interface, he pondered: "According to my experience playing games in my previous life, if the same ingredient is placed in these four slots, the resulting dish will be called 'original product'."

For example, if you put all meat in, the result will usually be barbecue or food related to barbecue.

If you put berries in it, the food you make is usually jam or something like that.

Then for rice, should we just put all the rice in?
Liu Hen immediately put in four portions of rice and chose to cook: "It should be okay, right? But will there be any problems without water?"

He waited patiently.

After one minute, the cooking result comes out.

【Dark cuisine...】

"..."

Four kilograms of rice were wasted in one go. If rice wasn't so easy to get now, he would have been heartbroken.

Liu Hen had no choice but to change the combination again, trying to match the normal amount of rice he cooked in his previous life.

That is, one part rice and three parts ice cubes.

One minute later, the cooking result came out.

[White Rice Porridge: This nutritious white rice porridge can satisfy hunger and quench thirst, and also has a special effect in treating colds.]

'Porridge?'

Liu Hen was delighted and quickly took it out to take a look...

What was surprising but not particularly surprising was that the white rice porridge was actually a big bowl, at least three pounds.

"What a nice smell!" He showed a delighted expression and took a sip impatiently.

Many people nearby who smelled the fragrance looked over. It was the first time they had smelled this special food fragrance.

However, since there is no shortage of food in the travel village nowadays, even if some people have a big appetite and find it difficult to eat a full meal, at least they will not go hungry.

Therefore, even though the aroma of the white rice porridge was really tempting, no one dared to stare at it.

Except for the little black stone who was extremely favored by Liu Hen.
