Chapter 290 This is called family happiness
Facing Youhuang's sparkling eyes, the old turtle felt a little confused. He felt that apart from living longer, he had no other shining points.
You Huang stepped forward and patted the old turtle's shell: "Old...old senior, you have lived in this sea for 100,000 years, so you must know a lot about what happened in the sea. Do you know when the Penglai Sea was formed and when the secret realm appeared?"
"Oh, that time..." The old turtle thought hard and said, "I was still an egg, so I didn't see what happened with my own eyes. Later, I heard from my great-grandmother that it seemed like one day 100,000 years ago, a huge meteor suddenly fell from the sky, and it set off a huge wave before it even hit the ground."
"What happens after it falls down?" Youhuang asked curiously.
"The meteor fell from a high altitude and hit the water surface. The impact was as terrible as a human falling from a cliff. The meteor was smashed into pieces in an instant, and the Penglai Sea was created by it."
The old turtle paused before continuing, "If it wasn't for my great-grandmother who saw it with her own eyes, no one would have thought that the land beneath our feet was actually part of a meteor. It's just that as time went by, the spiritual energy dissipated and it gradually lost its original appearance."
You Huang looked at Xue Zun in confusion: "How big is the Divine Realm? One fragment is the size of seven countries."
The key point is that the area of the Seven Kingdoms alone is the sum of all the land areas of the world in which one lived in previous life. It is even more unimaginable how the Empress Da Lin two thousand years ago governed such a huge country. I am afraid that it would take several months to transmit a single order.
"It's big."
Xue Zun answered succinctly.
Youhuang was naturally not satisfied with this answer, but he couldn't complain to his face.
Just as he was about to continue asking the old turtle, the seafood on the ground suddenly flew back into the ring on its own. Snow Lord said without question, "Okay, I've checked it, and there are no dragon descendants in it. Go back and help Madam Hou prepare the dinner tonight. I suddenly want to eat what you cook."
"what?!"
You Huang looked at Xue Zun in surprise and confusion.
Xue Zun waved his hand and sent her away, obviously not wanting her to know what happened next.
Steadying his body in the air, Youhuang slowly landed in the military camp. When he came outside the tent, he heard Tianqi and Shen Zhaojun chatting and laughing, expressing their regret for meeting each other too late.
Thinking that it would be difficult for a man and a sword spirit to meet again after being separated for 100,000 years, You Huang did not go in to disturb them. Instead, she went straight to the kitchen of the military camp, put out a large pile of seafood and said, "Everyone has worked hard in the disaster relief work in the city today. This is a special reward for you."
"It takes time to prepare seafood. We are just a few people in the kitchen and I am afraid we won't be able to do it in time." The chef took a look at the seafood on the ground and said with some regret: "It's rare to have such delicious seafood. I want to eat it too."
"You tell me which ones you want to make and what dishes you want to cook, and I'll take care of it." You Huang said as he rolled up his sleeves and swiftly picked up the kitchen knife beside him.
"Miss, you can't do this. If the Marquis's wife finds out, we will have to eat military sticks."
The fire chief in the kitchen tried to stop them, saying that the marquis's wife loved her daughter so much, how could she bear to let her do such dirty and tiring work?
You Huang said disapprovingly, "I often go to Uncle Guan's shop in Tiandu. Most of the time I eat and bake for myself. Sometimes the business is so good that I have to help. Madam Hou has to tear down the shop. I have done jobs that are dirtier and more tiring than this. You don't have to feel sorry for me."
"Now that the weather is cooler, I'll give you a spicy and hot boiled fish."
Youhuang picked out a few groupers, deftly removed the scales and bones, then cut the fish meat into almost transparent slices, and marinated the fish with the ingredients prepared on the spot.
General Huotou was full of admiration for Youhuang's knife skills. He pointed at the hairtail and said, "My hometown is by the sea, and fried hairtail is the most common dish I eat. Please prepare it for me, young lady. You can taste my cooking skills later."
"I'll prepare the squid and put it on skewers and grill it for dinner in the evening. The cuttlefish can be braised in brine..." After Youhuang finished speaking, she recited the incantation and formed seals. Several pairs of invisible big hands began to process the seafood she had named at the same time.
When everyone in the kitchen saw this, they were so surprised that they couldn't help but stop what they were doing.
General Huotou couldn't help but sigh: "Girl, I feel that you are like that squid, with several pairs of arms."
"Small idea."
Youhuang waved his hand and the cooking spatula moved by itself.
Faced with this situation, the soldier in charge of cutting and matching couldn't help but say: "Girl, you are so powerful, you can sweep the battlefield by yourself."
"Actually, I can solve it with one sword, but..." You Huang smiled and said, "There are rules in the cultivation world: cultivators cannot interfere in human affairs, and they are not allowed to use magic on ordinary people, so I can only help you cut vegetables and cook, and you have to rely on yourselves for the rest."
"Are we still going to cook these dishes?" the soldier asked, pointing at the ingredients that were supposed to be used today.
“It still needs to be done.”
You Huang said without hesitation: "There are so many people in the military camp, not everyone likes to eat or can eat seafood, seafood is considered a snack."
As the sky gradually darkened, the aroma of food wafted out from the kitchen, instantly making the soldiers hungry. There was no need to look or ask, as they knew there would be a lot of delicious food today.
Finally, it was time for dinner. The soldiers lined up in an orderly manner to get their meals. General Huotou said loudly, "Today's meal was made by the girl herself, and these plates of seafood are also a reward from the girl. Everyone, eat as much as you can today. If it's not enough, there will be barbecue skewers in the evening."
“I can’t eat seafood…”
Suddenly a very small voice was heard, which seemed a little out of place in the crowd.
After hearing this, You Huang waved a large spoon and said, "Those who don't like or can't eat seafood, come over here to get food. We have specially prepared meals for you."
The soldier was stunned for a moment and immediately walked over. You Huang personally served him food and said, "You are so unlucky that you can't eat seafood, but I have prepared chicken legs for you, and braised eggs that you must have never eaten before."
Looking at the chicken legs and eggs in the rice bowl, the soldier was so moved that he didn't know what to say.
Seeing this, You Huang couldn't help but joked: "Don't be so moved that you cry. Be careful not to let your tears fall into the bowl. The food will be too salty and affect the taste."
"puff……"
The soldier's well-planned plan was suddenly ruined.
At the evening banquet, Shen Zhaojun was feeding her daughter rice and vegetables.
Tianqi couldn't help but complain after seeing this: "You are such a grown-up, you have hands and feet but you can't eat by yourself, and you still need your mother to feed you, aren't you ashamed?"
"What do you know? This is called family happiness."
You Huang swallowed the food and immediately retorted, then opened his mouth and ate the fish fillet that Shen Zhaojun fed him.
Shen Zhaojun smiled apologetically towards Tianqi and said, "Huang'er is just such a stubborn person. It's easy for her to offend people with her words. Please don't mind, Ninth Miss."
"Why should I mind her?" Tianqi sneered twice and said, "Anyway, it's not me who will be beaten to death for being mean, but I can just change someone else. I think Madam Hou is pretty good."
"I go……"
Just as You Huang was about to retort, his mouth was stuffed with food.
