Chapter 20 We are going to publish
While Niu Xuanguang and his team were discussing how to deal with the situation here, the team finally stopped.
It was already around three or four in the afternoon. If they went any further, they wouldn't be able to go far, and it would affect their time to set up camp.
After all, this is in the Gobi Desert, and the temperature will drop sharply at night. It would be quite troublesome to stop and set up camp at that time.
Moreover, the mounts they brought were tired. Not to mention the others, even the paladins' warhorses could not carry the heavily armored paladins for several hours.
So after finding a flat ground, the team stopped.
Several paladins first took off their armor, and then took down the Loom of Destiny and placed it on the ground nearby.
Afterwards, they gave priority to letting the two camels carrying the looms of destiny rest and eat first. It can be seen that the two camels had almost exhausted their physical strength and would need at least one day of rest tomorrow to recover.
So some of the people in white robes inside began to discuss whether to give up some supplies.
While those people were busy, Niu Xuanguang and his colleagues were also doing their own things.
In Niu Xuanguang's team, Zhao Gongming was the kind of person who knew a little bit about everything. As soon as they stopped to set up camp, Zhao Gongming found a few stones and started to light a campfire.
Wang Liang looked over curiously and found that Zhao Gongming proudly took out a frying pan and other cooking utensils from his backpack and started cooking.
Although there was no hunting along the way, Zhao Gongming still got some good stuff. The camel that was accidentally killed by Wang Liang in the battle was secretly cut off by Zhao Gongming with its humps and a hind leg meat.
After taking out the cooking utensils, Zhao Gongming proudly said to Wang Liang who came over to watch: "You are in for a treat. I will show you my true strength later."
As he said that, Zhao Gongming took out the camel meat and camel hump from his backpack.
"Camel meat is best eaten roasted. I cut off a piece of hind leg meat. This is our staple food today. I have already prepared it on the way here. If you want to learn how to cook, making good use of every bit of time is the most important thing."
As Zhao Gongming spoke, he took out the processed camel meat.
Wang Liang took a look at it and found that the camel meat had been skinned and had many cross marks on it , with a large amount of coarse salt spread on it.
"You have to marinate the meat before grilling. I don't have that many seasonings with me, so I just used coarse salt and added some rice wine. Now we have to grill it for a while."
As Zhao Gongming spoke, he took an iron skewer and skewered the large piece of camel meat. Then he put it on the fire. Under Wang Liang's astonished gaze, the camel meat actually turned over .
"No need to look at it, these are just some small tricks. After the Jindan stage, you can use telekinesis to control some things to fly. That's how flying swords came about. These are just some small tricks."
"Old Zhao, you are bragging about the life training method you developed again." At this time, the crying girl and the naughty girl also came over. They had long been accustomed to Zhao Gongming's characteristics, and they ran over and waited when they saw the barbecue start.
Miss Guitou was looking at the backpack that Zhao Gongming put down, as if she wanted to see if there was anything .
"Okay, little ancestor, I also cut off two pieces of camel humps. This thing contains a lot of fat, so it is not suitable for stewing, but is suitable for cooking methods such as sautéing, roasting, deep-frying, stir-frying, and braising. We don't have much oil here, so I plan to stir-fry a dish of Yin and Yang camel humps."
As Zhao Gongming spoke, he took out a small piece of butter and rubbed it back and forth on the pan.
Zhao Gongming was not afraid of the heat, but explained seriously: "Don't underestimate cooking, it can really train you in many different things. At least if you are good at cooking, it will be much easier to learn alchemy in the future."
As he spoke, Zhao Gongming observed the temperature of the butter in the pot, "When cooking, we must learn to pay attention to the heat and temperature. If we can control the temperature at about 1 degree when cooking, then we can also control the temperature to this level when refining the elixir.
And even if the cooking fails, we will only lose some food at most. If the alchemy fails, that’s all the hard work you put into collecting the ingredients.”
At this point, Zhao Gongming felt that the temperature was about right, so he threw the camel hump that had just been taken out into the pan and stir-fried it quickly.
Camel hump is one of the mountain delicacies, with delicate meat, rich and plump. Normally, it is best to cook it in a scorched state, but Zhao Gongming did not have the conditions to do so at the moment, so he could only stir-fry it.
However, Zhao Gongming also knew his skills. He didn't want to waste such a good ingredient as camel hump, so he added some seasonings when frying the camel hump.
Soon Tuofeng was fired first.
[Stir-fried Camel Hump (Restores 75% HP, 50% Internal Strength, Temporary Special Effect: Strength and Constitution +3, Lasts 1 hour)]
Looking at the stir-fried camel hump, Zhao Gongming looked at the two young ladies proudly.
"I think I didn't waste this good ingredient. Wait a little longer. The roasted camel meat will be ready soon. You can invite them to eat after it's ready."
Wang Liang turned his head to look at the camel meat being roasted on the fire. The fat in the camel meat had been roasted out, and the coarse salt smeared on it slowly dissolved under the penetration of the fat and blended into the camel meat. A roasted meat aroma began to develop.
Smelling this fragrance, Wang Liang didn't want to go anywhere else. He just wanted to wait here for food.
It was also for this reason that Wang Liang did not notice that Niu Xuanguang and Wei Ban took the opportunity to walk around and walked to a place that the Paladin could not notice. Then he turned his attention to the Loom of Destiny placed in the middle of the camp.
Although everyone in the camp was busy, the Paladins did not relax their vigilance. Two Paladins who had not taken off their heavy armor guarded the Loom of Destiny one in front and one behind, not letting anyone get close.
"How confident are you?" Niu Xuanguang said in a low voice after taking a look from a distance. The previous plan was proposed by Wei Ban, and the person who is most likely to benefit in the end is also Wei Ban. Niu Xuanguang must consider whether it is worth doing so for the sake of the entire team.
However, Wei Ban did not notice Niu Xuanguang's eyes at this time. He kept staring at the loom of fate and whispered.
"That's a machine from mythology. If I can dismantle this loom and add the materials I've collected over the years, I can make a tread crossbow above level 60. Captain, we're going to ship it!"
