Chapter 157 Discovering New Food
Perhaps because she was fed too much, He Jiaojiao now just wanted to get up and move around, not go back to the cave. Of course, her companions also let He Jiaojiao do as she pleased.
It was similar to what He Jiaojiao thought. The forest here was full of tropical vegetation, many of which she was familiar with.
"This..." He Jiaojiao pointed to a coconut tree in front of her and looked at Zhutian with some anticipation.
Zhutian looked up and saw the fruit on the coconut tree. He shook his head and said, "Jiaojiao, this fruit is very hard. I can't eat it."
eat?
He Jiaojiao couldn't help laughing.
"This isn't for eating. Pick two for me and I'll tell you what to do."
So, under He Jiaojiao's command, Zhutian swung out two small whirlwinds and directly knocked the coconuts down.
Next was He Jiaojiao's science lecture. She asked Zhutian to peel off the green skin on the outside of the coconut to reveal the hard part inside.
"Jiaojiao, look, this is really hard."
Zhutian picked up a stone and knocked on the fruit, trying to prove that he was right and that the fruit was really inedible.
He Jiaojiao smiled and asked Zhutian to open a small hole in the coconut to reveal the coconut water inside.
"This is not for eating, it's for drinking."
He Jiaojiao said as she picked up the fruit and took a sip. It had a rich milky aroma and a hint of sweetness. It was infinitely better than the fruit she had bought at the fruit store in her previous life.
Seeing He Jiaojiao taste it, Zhutian hesitated and picked up another one, brought it to his lips and took a sip. The coconut water was sweeter than ever before, and his eyes lit up. Moreover, there seemed to be a light fragrance in it, which was very pleasant to smell.
The others took turns drinking up Zhutian's coconut. Only Zhuxiong seemed unable to accept it, but the others accepted it well.
"Azhu, you don't have to force yourself if you don't like it." He Jiaojiao said gently. Each of her partners has something they don't like.
"Yeah!" Bamboo Bear nodded and put down the coconut in his hand.
"That's right! There's a way to do it, maybe you'll like it."
In her previous life, she had once eaten coconut chicken while on a business trip south, and she still couldn't forget the taste. Since Bamboo Bear couldn't tolerate pure coconut juice, perhaps he could tolerate coconut chicken. Furthermore, the weather in the Beast World was a bit dry right now, and He Jiaojiao felt her skin had deteriorated considerably. You know, coconut oil can be used for skin care, something she'd researched extensively in her previous life.
"I want lots of coconuts!"
He Jiaojiao pointed to several coconut trees around and said with a firm look.
The companions all brought out their best skills. Zhutian and Chiyan continuously threw whirlwinds with their hands, knocking coconuts from the tree one by one. Ziyi nimbly moved between the trees, catching each falling coconut and piling them aside. As for Mo Ran, after transforming into a dragon, he gently flicked his tail, dropping five or six coconuts. As for Bamboo Bear, he naturally stayed nearby to watch over He Jiaojiao, fearing that she would be hit by a coconut.
After a while, the coconuts on the ground piled up like a small hill. He Jiaojiao was afraid that they would really pick all the coconuts, so she hurriedly called for a stop.
"Jiaojiao, is this enough?"
Zhutian asked uncertainly. After all, there were still many trees like this nearby, so there was no need to worry about picking them all.
"Well, that's all for now!"
After all, coconut chicken only requires a few coconuts, and she will use the rest to make coconut oil, but there is no need to make too many at once.
After putting the coconuts into the space, the few of them started strolling around casually again.
While strolling, He Jiaojiao stopped and without waiting for Mo Ran and others to ask, she squatted down and carefully examined the plant at her feet.
"This..." He Jiaojiao felt it looked very familiar, so she reached out and plucked the rice-like thing off. Then, she peeled off the golden husk, revealing the rice inside. Only then did she exclaim in delight, "This is it."
Seeing He Jiaojiao so excited, the others couldn't help but squat down, wanting to see what kind of thing could make He Jiaojiao so happy.
"what is this?"
Looking at the tiny white things in He Jiaojiao's palm, how could she be so happy about such a tiny thing? Could it be something delicious?
He Jiaojiao didn't answer, but pretended to be mysterious and said, "I won't tell you this for now."
"Ah Tian, is there any nearby?"
Zhutian's eyesight was better, and he could see things far away. Since there was one here, there must be more nearby. Zhutian glanced around and nodded.
“There are still quite a few around here, but they are relatively scattered.”
Sure enough, generally speaking, rice grows in large patches. If you collect them, you can eat rice.
Thinking that she could finally eat rice, He Jiaojiao instantly became as happy as if she had been injected with chicken blood.
"Do you want to take this off and take it back?"
Chi Yan touched a handful of rice, looking at the tiny grains on it, which felt a bit like cutting his hand.
"Yeah!" He Jiaojiao said, comparing the height and asking them to cut the whole rice ear together. This way, it would be much faster than picking them one by one.
They kept tinkering until it was almost dark, and then, at the urging of her partner, He Jiaojiao reluctantly prepared to return to the cave.
"Don't worry, Jiaojiao. This stuff is everywhere here. I'll go out with them tomorrow to get more. I guarantee there will be enough."
Only after Zhutian gave his assurance did He Jiaojiao nod and climb onto Zhutian's eagle back.
Back in the cave, He Jiaojiao was still fiddling with the rice grains in her hand. Zi Yi had already taken out a few coconuts from the space and went to make Jiaojiao's favorite coconut chicken.
Everyone else also did their job, except Chi Yan, who couldn't find anything to do for a while.
"Jiaojiao, does this need to be peeled?"
Seeing that He Jiaojiao had peeled off the shell to reveal the white stuff inside, Chi Yan thought, since he had nothing to do anyway, he might as well peel off a little and see how Jiaojiao wanted to eat it.
"Ok!"
There are no machines in the animal world, so if you want to separate the rice husks from the rice, it seems that you have to peel them manually.
"Or, Ah Yan, can your ability separate the rice from the husk?"
Chi Yan was a little embarrassed. Although he had already mastered the control over his supernatural powers very well, the so-called rice was too small after all, and he was not very confident.
"let me try!"
He Jiaojiao quickly brought a handful of rice, spread it flat on the stone table, and looked at Chi Yan expectantly. Perhaps it was because of He Jiaojiao's expectant gaze that Chi Yan felt more nervous than ever before.
"Jiaojiao, if I..."
He Jiaojiao knew what Chi Yan was worried about. "It doesn't matter if you can't do it. At worst, we can just peel them one by one later!"
Under He Jiaojiao's expectant gaze, Chi Yan threw out a small whirlwind. Where the whirlwind passed, the rice was swept up and flew in the air for a long time before finally landing. What fell to the ground was not the rice just now, but the rice.
"Wow, it worked, Yan, you're awesome!"
He Jiaojiao cried out in surprise, hugged Chi Yan, and kissed him on the cheek excitedly.
