Orc's Little Rabbit

Chapter 49 Venison and Drink

It was already dusk when Eli came back. In the afternoon, he climbed over two mountains and caught the cunning but meaty Kalulu, which is very popular with the insect beasts of the Moon Clan. He sold it to the butcher shop for 20 copper coins, and then went to the wine shop to buy After drinking, I came back.

Shen Xi had just salted the duck eggs and was washing his hands by the stream. When he lived in the former palace of Yilai, he knew that the Moon Clan used sweet-scented osmanthus pancreas to wash their hands and faces, but he forgot to buy it when he went to the market last time, so he had to wash with stream water all the time. When he raised his head, he was facing Eli who was carrying two jars of wine.

Shen Xi was stunned for a moment, then stood up and looked at him blankly, and said, "Eli, you're back?" He obviously didn't see him for a while, but when he saw him, he still couldn't help feeling layers of joy in his heart.

"Well, I hunted a small deer, and I'm ready to have venison for dinner." Eli nodded, and took out the small sika deer hunted in the space ring. The sika deer was suffocated to death by its neck, and there was no blood on its body. Eli peeled off the deer skin first, and planned to dry it and leave it for Shen Xi to make moccasin boots.

Eli didn't like the shavings of meat in his freshly cleaned nails, so he went to the kitchen and took an iron knife, and cut the venison into eight pieces on the stone slab by the stream. Taking advantage of this time, Shen Xi hurriedly went to the kitchen to start a fire. They didn't have any candles in the house, so he didn't want to cook in the dark, so he quickly got up, quickly started a fire on the big stove, put a pot on the stove, and poured water.

The temperature at night is not high now, and the venison can be stored for one night, so Shen Xi is not in a hurry to deal with it, and only asks Eli to cut the tenderloin, wash and slice it. Then put the sliced ​​venison into the pot to cook the soup, cover the pot and let it go.

The dusk of the Moon Clan passed into the night very quickly, and the sky was still full of red clouds just now, but after a while the sky became dark, and Shen Xi felt that there was a layer of gray mist floating on his eyes when he looked at everything, which was very hazy. He thought for a while, and suggested: "The venison soup needs to be cooked for a while, why don't we roast the venison leg in the open space in the yard."

"Okay." Eli skewered all four legs of the venison , build a fire outside. The sky was completely dark, the moon was hiding behind the clouds, and only the flickering fire brought light. Shen Xi was sitting opposite him, resting his chin, staring at the flames in a daze, not knowing what he was thinking, with a dull expression on his face, which made people have the urge to poke.

In the spring night, the sound of wild beasts was heard from far away, and Yi Lai was inexplicably agitated, and he didn't know where he was distracted. He just stared at Shen Xi's neck like white jade in the dark night, and his golden eyes shone brightly in the dark night. Hui.

Shen Xi suddenly remembered that venison was still being cooked in the house, so he quickly stood up, took a torch, and walked to the kitchen. Fortunately, the venison soup needs to be cooked thoroughly to be delicious. He opened the lid of the pot, and a burst of meaty aroma came to his face. Under the light of the fire, he vaguely saw that the venison inside was overcooked, so he added sesame oil, salt, star anise, cinnamon and other spices into the seasoning, cooked for a few more minutes, and filled two large bowls full of venison soup, carefully Take it out and pass Eli a copy.

The venison is the most tender and melts in the mouth, and the soup is even more delicious, which makes people want to drink a second sip. Shen Xi drank it satisfactorily, the aroma was completely different from chicken soup, it was really intoxicating.
