Beast World: The Ferocious God Xiang Liu is So Gentle

On the very night that Ling Guang brought back the red pine seedlings, Lu Yao spent three gold coins to buy a medicinal field expansion voucher.

After using the expansion voucher, the medicinal field area reached thirteen square meters.

After planting the red pine trees, Donghai and Nanshan took good care of them.

Jia Liu was eager to drink sparkling water, so her three fathers made many wooden jars with lids overnight.

After washing the pine needles, I put them into a jar, filled it with spring water, and added some syrup. I sealed it and waited for the pine needles to ferment and produce carbon dioxide.

Today is the third day of pine needle fermentation. After opening the wooden jar, you can see that a lot of tiny bubbles have formed in the water.

Lu Yao poured the water into a bowl and added some ice cubes. She took a sip; it was cool and refreshing.

Jia Liu couldn't wait to stretch out her arm for water: "Mother, let me have a taste!"

After taking the bowl, he drank the sparkling water in one gulp, then let out a satisfied burp: "Burp~, it was so delicious!"

Everyone took a bowl and tried it, praising the sparkling water highly.

Ling Guang: "This is so satisfying! I want another bowl!"

Mu Xue: "That really quenches my thirst!"

Lu Yao took out various fruits: "If you juice these fruits and add them in, it will definitely taste even better!"

So everyone picked their favorite fruits and started juicing them.

Tianwu chose red ginseng, which produced a rose-red sparkling water: "This color is so beautiful!"

Xiang Liu chose hawthorn: "It's sweet and sour, tastes great!"

Within half a day, more than half of the sparkling water had been consumed.

Jialiu: "Mother, let's make some more soda! We still have plenty of pine needles, and if that's not enough, Mother has red pine trees in her space!"

Lu Yao: "We have enough pine needles, but we don't have much syrup left. If we want to drink soda freely, we'll have to find a sugar-making facility."

Xiang Liu: "It must be hard to find sugar beets for making sugar!"

Lu Yao: "There is an even better sugar-producing plant—sugarcane."

Jialiu: "I know what sugarcane looks like! It's like bamboo, with segments, but the skin is black!"

Lu Yao corrected, "There are also green-skinned sugarcane! Unlike bamboo, sugarcane leaves grow at the top and are particularly long."

Tianwu: "I have actually seen this plant before; it only takes half a day to get there."

Jialiu: "Then let's go cut sugarcane now!"

Tianwu: "You can't help anyway, so don't go and cause trouble! I'll go and call Panzhang right now. His beast form is big and can carry a lot of things, and he's not slow either. If we set off now, we'll definitely be back tomorrow."

The next day at noon, a black dragon returned carrying a large pile of sugarcane.

Tianwu took a section and handed it to Lu Yao: "Yao Yao! Look, isn't this sugarcane? Although the skin is red, I've tasted it, and it's quite sweet."

System notification: "Congratulations, host, you have obtained red sugarcane. Reward: one gold coin!"

Lu Yao: "This is red sugarcane. Eating it in moderation can help relieve cough and phlegm, clear heat and detoxify, and promote urination."

Tianwu: "Let's start making sugar now!"

Jialiu: "I want to help too!"

System: "I have an ancient sugar-making method here. The host can exchange it for one gold coin."

Lu Yao bargained, "The red pine trees I planted have already produced pine cones, and they'll soon be producing pine nuts. You can use the gold coins you get as a reward for pine nuts to offset this!"

System: "Plants that enter the herb field will not reward you with gold coins for the fruits they produce! Host, you're too cunning!"

"There's nothing I can do, I'm broke right now!"

"I'm really scared of you, so I'll give it to you for free this time!"

After carefully studying the ancient sugar-making methods, Lu Yao began to lead everyone in making sugar.

"Everyone, let's peel the sugarcane and juice it first!"

Fortunately, the males are strong enough to squeeze the sugarcane juice out with their hands.

The males quickly squeezed a large bucket of sugarcane juice. Lu Yao said, "This is enough. I don't know if it will work, so let's try a small amount first."

Xiang Liu: "With Yao Yao personally guiding us, we're sure to succeed. Shouldn't we start making the syrup now?"

Lu Yao looked at him in surprise: "How did you guess that?"

"The previous beets were like this too! It's not hard to guess."

The group boiled the sugarcane juice into a thick syrup, and after leaving it overnight, the syrup had almost solidified.

Jialiu: "The candy in my inherited memories is white! Why is this red?"

Lu Yao: "Sugarcane juice produces brown sugar, which needs to be washed away with muddy water to remove impurities before it can be turned into white sugar. Let's keep half of the brown sugar and make the other half into white sugar!"

Xiang Liu made a small hole in the bottom of the wooden bucket and stuffed some straw inside.

There was some solidified brown sugar in the bucket, and some yellow mud water was added for rinsing.

However, the color of the brown sugar did not fade after the water was drained.

Lu Yao then added some spiritual spring water to the remaining muddy water. After the water drained away, the brown sugar in the bucket truly turned white.

Jialiu exclaimed excitedly, "Great! We have sugar now! We can continue making sparkling water!"

Lu Yao pinched a little white sugar and put it in her mouth; it was so sweet it warmed her heart.

System notification: "Congratulations, host, you have successfully made white sugar. You are rewarded with one gold coin!"
