Star Rebirth: Kidnapping the Crazy Boss
Chapter 46 Ginger Syrup
Kong Yu found the robot Olaf and asked it to help find a small pot for cooking soup and sugar.
Olaf was very efficient and found a small pot for stewing soup for Kongyu in a short time. Each room here is equipped with a small kitchen. If the guests want to cook by themselves, they can order fresh vegetables through the robot butler and take them home to cook themselves.
Kong Yu thought about Wei Huai's physical condition, picked a piece of old ginger with dark yellow skin, cut a few slices, boiled water and poured some syrup into it to cook.
Looking at the milky white syrup, Kong Yu was somewhat dissatisfied. Although people in the interstellar age had lost many things from the ancient Earth period, they still found many substitutes.
For example, the syrup in front of us is produced by a mutant aphid ant (originally, ants and aphids had a symbiotic relationship, and as the organisms mutated, hybrid species gradually appeared). When interstellar humans first collected it in the wild, they discovered that there was a large amount of syrup in the nests of this aphid ant. The syrup was rich in various trace elements and could nourish the body.
Later, people began to try to artificially breed this aphid ant, and finally achieved syrup freedom.
But after living on Earth for decades, and being used to eating brown sugar made from sugarcane and nectar collected by bees, Kong Yu is a little unable to accept this kind of syrup!
But what to do! This is the condition here, so let’s make do with it.
As the water in the small pot continued to boil, the spicy smell of ginger began to slowly spread in the air, but fortunately only a few thin slices were cooked, so the taste was acceptable.
Xiaohua, who was lying on the sofa pretending to be dead, covered her nose in disgust.
Wait for the ginger water to gradually change color, then turn off the heat. I originally wanted to taste it to see how it tasted, but when I thought of the syrup I put in it, I gave up.
He poured the ginger water into the thermos, opened the door and went to the reception desk in front.
During the extremely cold season, there are only a few guests in the Snow Castle.
Wei Huai stayed at the reception desk as usual every day. These days, he was depressed, lacking energy, and his back was bent. He looked a little lonely sitting at the reception desk. When I came to him free, his eyes were blank, and I didn't know what he was thinking.
"Uncle Wei!"
When Wei Huai saw him coming, he came to his senses, wiped his face and asked him to come and sit down.
"Why didn't you ask Olaf to take you here? Don't freeze to death!"
Seeing the thick snowflakes falling on Kong Yu's body, Wei Huai asked with some doubts.
"I think sooner or later I will have to adapt to the temperature on the ice planet, and I can't always rely on Olaf."
I was walking alone on the small path made of ice and snow. I slipped all the way and fell on my butt in the middle. It took me a lot of effort to reach the reception desk.
Hearing him say this, Wei Huai laughed.
"That's right, there's nothing wrong with adapting in advance!"
Thinking of the training program of the Lieyan Military Academy and looking at the exquisite and noble appearance of the young man in front of him, Wei Huai's face showed a bit of joy.
But he didn't say anything to remind the young man in front of him. It would be a surprise when he entered the military academy!
Kong Yu came to deliver ginger syrup, and without beating around the bush with Wei Huai, he directly took out the thermos from the space button and handed it to Wei Huai.
Wei Huai subconsciously reached out to take it, looking at Kong Yu in confusion.
Kong Yu smiled and said, "Uncle Wei, I see you've been suffering from frostbite due to the backlash of your supernatural powers and the extremely cold weather. This is a little recipe I researched based on ancient records. You can try it and see if it works."
"A recipe? Something that can cure frostbite?"
Wei Huai unscrewed the lid of the cup and smelled the spicy aroma mixed with a hint of sweetness.
"Yes, it contains a traditional Chinese medicinal herb recorded in ancient books that can dispel cold and reduce inflammation. You should try it!"
Wei Huai was a little skeptical. He was very clear about his physical problems. The biggest cause of frostbite was the backlash of ice-related abilities, which could not be cured at all.
But he didn't say it out loud, thinking that this thing smelled just like sugar water. What was rare was the free heart.
Wei Huai tentatively raised the thermos cup and took a sip.
Very sweet and spicy, without any weird taste.
Wei Huai took another big sip, and this time an extremely overbearing, stimulating and spicy taste started from his mouth and went all the way down his throat to his stomach. Wei Huai was a little panicked, and for a moment he thought Kong Yu had poisoned the water.
But the spicy feeling came and went quickly, and was followed by a warmth rising from the stomach, gentle yet strong.
Wei Huai's hands trembled a little, and then he drank the remaining ginger syrup in the cup in one gulp.
“Warm, hot, comfortable…”
As the various feelings accumulated layer by layer, a dense layer of sweat beads appeared on Wei Huai's scalp, as if the moisture that had been hidden in his body for many years was being forced out of the body.
Kong Yu sat opposite him and carefully observed Wei Huai's performance after he drank the ginger water. Therefore, he saw the effect of this cup of ginger water more clearly than Wei Huai himself.
The redness and swelling of the chilblains on Wei Huai's cheeks and ears that had not healed for a long time gradually faded away, and the blisters dried up and formed scabs but had not yet fallen off!
It’s useful, really useful, and I’m a little excited.
Chinese medicine is indeed right. All things are interdependent and mutually exclusive. Even in the interstellar age, this principle still applies.
It’s just that interstellar humans regard high technology as their lifeblood and ignore these ordinary little things, without realizing that during the millions of years of neglect, they have also evolved abilities to be more adaptable to the interstellar age.
Wei Huai felt the warmth coming from all his limbs, and then his attention was attracted by the itchiness on his face. He reached out to touch it carefully, but only touched dry scabs.
Wei Huai let go of his hand, stared at the empty space with his eyes wide open, and pursed his lips a few times but no sound came out.
It was Kong Yu who broke the silence. "Uncle Wei, that's great! This ginger is indeed useful. I still have some left. You can make some yourself and drink it a few times. Although it can't completely cure the backlash of the ice ability, it will make you feel better."
As he spoke, Kong Yu took out a piece of aged ginger from the space button and handed it to Wei Huai.
Wei Huai rubbed his hands, feeling a little embarrassed, but feeling the endless warmth in his body, he couldn't bring himself to say a polite refusal.
On the ice and snow planet, due to the influence of the planet's environment, most people who have unleashed superpowers have ice-related superpowers. There are many people like him who have suffered from the backlash of superpowers for various reasons.
He couldn't find a solution before, but now there is finally a way to relieve the pain, and he can't refuse it.
Reach out and take the thing.
"Xiao Yu, this thing is called ginger. How much do you have? Name your price and I'll buy it!"
Wei Huai thought that he should give Kongyu a high price and not let Kongyu suffer any loss.
Kong Yu smiled and waved his hand, "Uncle Wei, this is a gift from me to you. Thank you for taking care of me these past few days."
After saying that, without waiting for Wei Huai to refuse, Kong Yu stood up and said goodbye and left the reception hall.
Wei Huai held the rest of his words in his throat and touched the ginger in his hand. After a while, Wei Huai turned on his light brain, took a 360-degree photo of the small piece of ginger, and sent it to Xiangnan who was far away on Planet 312.
Kong Yu returned to his room with a smile on his face and a happy mood.
