Chapter 2 Grilled Sweet Mushrooms

Qiao Xi didn't plan to pick up a few small ones, leaving them behind to feed the nest. He would definitely come back in a few days to have a bunch of them again.

Use a knife to gently scrape off the rotten parts and dirt on the surface of the sweet mushroom.

With a rinse under the tap, the sweet mushrooms are cleaned thoroughly.

This faucet connected to a large lake nearby. Before coming here, Josh had asked about it and found it next to the cabin.

The faucet was covered in dust and had a lot of rust, but fortunately, after Josh wiped it clean and tried turning it, water came out.

The water quality was pretty good. Qiao Xi drank it directly because he was thirsty. It was sweet, cool and refreshing.

"Luckily I walked around outside the house, otherwise I wouldn't be able to find the faucet, right, Big Tail Yak!"

"Moo~"

The big-tailed yak shook its tail and buried its head in drinking water. It seemed that it was also very satisfied.

He took out a frying pan and randomly found some broken bricks in the yard to build a simple stove.

There were dead branches and leaves everywhere, so it was easy to find something to start a fire. I took out the fire starter and passed it over the dry leaves, and the fire started.

The sweet mushrooms are thick and thickly cut, roasted over low heat to release the juice, and then topped with the fragrant butter made from big-tail yak milk...

Josh licked his lips, a little impatient.

You don’t need a chopping board, just take out a sharp and small knife and slice the sweet mushrooms with your hands.

Place the sweet mushrooms in a pan one by one and roast until the steam comes out.

Josh took out a stick of butter, cut off a small piece and put it in the pot.

Watching the butter melt quickly, she calmly adjusted the position of the sweet mushrooms and coated them with a layer of butter.

The sweet fragrance that fills the nose is suddenly stimulated.

"Moo~" Are you ready? Are you ready?

"Don't rush us, Big Tail Yak. We want to have the most perfect dinner for our first meal. Don't be impatient. It's not possible now. The sweet mushrooms are still raw inside. Wait a little longer."

Josh couldn't wait any longer, but she knew it was still a few minutes away from the most delicious moment.

……

Both the man and the cow were waiting patiently.

"All right!"

Seeing the edges of the sweet mushroom turn yellow and curl slightly, and the center change from white to light yellow, Josh knew it was time!

She gave the first pot of sweet mushrooms to Big Tail Yak and grilled the second pot.

"Moo~"

Qiao Xi smiled and scratched the big-tailed yak's fur, "Eat quickly, big-tailed yak, you are the biggest contributor to our arrival in our new home!"

The milk of big-tailed yaks is rich in energy, and its price has been rising in recent years. It was with the milk of big-tailed yaks and the magic plants collected from the snow-capped mountains that Qiao Xi saved enough money to go south.

The Federal Development Commission would not hand over a farm to a poor person, no matter how remote the farm was.

The big-tailed yak has both good economic value and good combat effectiveness, which is also the key factor for Qiao Xi's successful registration.

The second batch was done, and Josh officially started her dinner. The crust was crispy and fragrant, and the first bite was full of rich sweetness, and the sweet mushroom juice hit her. Josh swallowed it without waiting to savor it carefully.

It was so delicious! All the dry, hard bread we had along the way looked like mud compared to this! Stinky mud!

Josh finished the meal quickly, still feeling a little unsatisfied.

However, the rich energy in the sweet mushrooms made Josh feel relaxed all over, and his fatigue was greatly relieved.

There are a lot of sweet mushrooms here. In the future, you can consider collecting and selling sweet mushrooms to make up for the economic crisis caused by the immaturity of farm crops and lack of income in a short period of time.

"Moo~" the big-tailed yak reminded Qiao Xi.

"Oh, I almost forgot. Big-tailed Yak, wait a moment, I'll make the bed for you right away." Qiao Xi was so comfortable after dinner that he forgot to make the bed for Big-tailed Yak.

There is a ready-made cowshed on the farm, but it is a bit dilapidated. Qiao Xi had just swept the dust carelessly before, and now he just needs to cover the big-tailed yaks with hay.

It’s not picky! Definitely not picky!

Qiao Xi glanced at the honest big-tailed yak and knew that he could only wait until he made money to renovate the cowshed.

The cattle pen is very large, and there must have been a lot of animals raised there in the past. I can buy some more to keep the big-tailed yaks company in the future.

While thinking, Qiao Xi quickly spread hay on the big-tailed yak.

From the corner of his eye, he saw a large hole right at the edge of the cowshed, next to the wall. There were claw marks on the wooden wall left by long-term climbing.

Josh put down the hay and leaned over to take a look. Could it be a burrowing rat? No, the hole wasn't that big.

Red-tailed squirrel? Does this squirrel dig holes? Not sure, uh, what is that?

Josh didn't understand, but the farm was poor now, and he wasn't afraid of these little mice stealing, so he just decided to just be a neighbor.

Qiao Xi stood up and planned to continue spreading hay for the big-tailed yak. ​​As soon as he stood up, he met a pair of frightened big eyes!
With a shrill "squeak!" the little thing instantly disappeared in front of Qiao Xi.

Josh was so scared that he jumped a few steps away.

The big-tailed yak came to Qiao Xi immediately, with its horns shining silver, and planned to freeze the entrance of the cave. No one was allowed to bully Qiao Xi!
"Don't move, big-tailed yak. ​​I scared it. It's my fault. Don't destroy its nest." Qiao Xi turned around and comforted the big-tailed yak.

This time she knew what it was, a rock rat, a variant of a squirrel that liked to dig holes underground to store food and collectibles.

Rock rats have a talent for space and will use their talent in the place where they store food, creating a small space to store precious things. Underground space is more stable, which may be the reason why they changed their squirrel habits and moved to digging holes underground.

She didn't see the entrance before, probably because the spatial talent of the Sky Rock Rat had hidden the entrance. Now that it came back, it forgot to hide the entrance, so it was exposed.

Although rock rats can dig holes underground to store food, they are limited to digging one hole. It is impossible for them to dig roads like moles and live completely underground. Their digging technology needs to be improved.

Josh was sure that the little squirrel was still hiding in the hole, but it was just frightened, so it was normal for it not to dare to come out for a while.

"Hello, Kong Yanshu, I'm the new owner of this farm. I'm sorry to have scared you, but don't worry I won't hurt you. We have no ill intentions. This is a gift for our first meeting. I'll get back to work, you take your time."

Josh placed the remaining small piece of sweet mushroom at the entrance of the cave and stopped paying attention to the rock rat. The most important thing was to hurry up and lay the hay.

The rock rat shivered in the hole, feeling that its life as a rat was hopeless. It tried to dig a hole to escape, but it was slow and inefficient, so it gave up as soon as it started digging.

God wants to kill the rat! It's not like it hasn't seen humans catch rock rats, dig up their nests, and then drain the rats' spatial energy to create spatial objects.

Is it going to turn into rat jerky?!?

The rat is very scared, but there is nothing he can do!
