Douluo: Traveling through Huo Yuhao, awakening the Drunken Swordsman

Chapter 387 Silly Roe Deer Hotpot!
While listening to Orange, Huo Yuhao nodded thoughtfully.

If that's the case, maybe I can try my luck.

If you happen to come across some other suitable soul beast with spiritual attributes, it would be nice to hunt it and get soul rings from it.

When the beautiful sunset rose in the western sky, they finally arrived near the destination of their trip.

Looking from high above, the Jingyang Mountains are indeed like what Orange said, like a giant spider, or a giant octopus, crawling on the ground, gloomy, majestic and magnificent.

Although it was also a gathering place for soul beasts, the feeling it gave Huo Yuhao was completely different from that of the Star Dou Great Forest.

The Star Forest is deep and boundless, but it also has a wild and ferocious feel to it.

Perhaps the heritage here is far from comparable to that of the Star Forest, but it is more aggressive.

"Let's rest outside tonight, and then go into the mountains tomorrow to test the soul guide. At the same time, we can try our luck to see if there is a soul beast that suits you." Orange said.

"Okay." Huo Yuhao nodded in agreement.

The three of them landed a hundred miles away from the Jingyang Mountains and found a high and flat place to set up camp.

With the existence of storage soul guides, soul masters can carry plenty of things. With three people and three tents, the camp was set up quickly.

Ke Ke prepared her own nest and immediately ran to Huo Yuhao's side. She said expectantly, "Yuhao, the outskirts of Jingyang Mountain Range are relatively safe. Few soul beasts will run out."

"Since you brought the utensils for hot pot, how about we cook hot pot tonight?"

Looking at this typical foodie, Huo Yuhao shook his head in amusement: “That’s fine. It just so happens that I also improved a new way of eating last night. You can try it.”

Upon hearing this, Orange immediately became interested: "A new way to eat it?"

Huo Yuhao smiled mysteriously without explaining. A red light flashed in his eyes, and his real vision expanded. He prepared to search nearby to see if there were any fresh ingredients that would volunteer.

Seeing the light flickering in Huo Yuhao's eyes, Juzi and Keke both looked curious, wondering what he was doing.

Suddenly, Huo Yuhao's eyes moved slightly, revealing a satisfied smile. His figure flashed out in an instant and disappeared from their sight in the blink of an eye.

But after a moment, Huo Yuhao came back with a prey that looked like a deer in his hand.

Juzi looked at Huo Yuhao in surprise: "This is... a silly roe deer? Can your eyes search for prey over a large area?"

With the remaining light of dusk, Orange could already see clearly what Huo Yuhao was holding in his hand.

This is a herbivorous soul beast called Roe Deer. It is widely distributed and has basically no attack power.

But I am very curious. No matter what noise I hear, I like to stop and take a look.

Therefore, this creature has become the prey of all carnivores. It is considered lucky if it can grow to the ten-year level, and it is almost impossible to see a hundred-year level. It is nicknamed "silly roe deer" by everyone.

Huo Yuhao did not explain and quickly dissected the silly roe deer, cutting it into strips of meat that were palm-length, two fingers wide, and of moderate thickness.

Then he took out tables and chairs, several vegetable racks, and various meats and vegetables.

Finally, he took out a large pot with a strange shape and put it on top.

Orange watched Huo Yuhao's preparations with great interest, his eyes completely drawn to this strange cauldron.

The middle of the large pot was separated by a curved arc, a typical double-flavored hot pot style, but the outer circle was a 20-centimeter-wide iron plate. Huo Yuhao chuckled, took out another oil cup, and used the brush inside to brush a layer of oil on the iron plate. Then he said, "This is called a hot pot. The middle is a double-flavored hot pot, and the outer circle can be used for grilling."

Juzi and Keke’s eyes suddenly lit up, and they looked at Huo Yuhao with surprise in their eyes. Barbecue and hot pot together?

Oh my, what's wrong with this guy's brain?

How come I couldn’t think of such a brilliant and simple idea?

Next, Huo Yuhao made the shabu-shabu hotpot into two types: red oil and clear soup, and added special hotpot base, and the shabu-shabu and grill hotpot was ready.

Huo Yuhao put some of the freshly cut roe deer meat into the boiling red oil, and the vegetables into the clear soup.

He cut the tenderest part of the roe deer meat into slices, took out three small bowls, added something into each bowl, and mixed it into a somewhat sticky, translucent brown sauce, then took a fork and handed them to the two girls.

Then he smiled and said, "This silly roe deer is evenly fat and lean, and the meat is tender. Whether it's hot pot or barbecued, the taste is very good. You can just dip it in the sauce and eat it."

As he spoke, Huo Yuhao lightly picked up a piece of the cut roe deer meat with the fork in his hand.

He just flipped his wrist lightly, and the piece of meat of moderate thickness seemed to be only burned by the outer flame of the campfire, then turned over and burned again, and then gently fell into the orange bowl.

In the light of the bonfire, Orange's face was rosy, making her look even more beautiful.

Orange had been paying attention to Huo Yuhao's movements. From his skillful flipping and the anticipation and joy in his eyes, it was clear that he was a foodie.

When I looked down again, I saw the piece of grilled meat in the bowl that was oozing with oil. It seemed to be slightly pink and not fully cooked.

"This thing should be eaten while it's hot. It's fragrant and chewy." Huo Yuhao said without raising his head. The second piece of meat had been roasted and fell into Keke's bowl.

I like eating oranges, and with this local ingredient, the flavor is even more special and my eyes become exceptionally bright.

She picked up the meat slices in the bowl with a fork, dipped them lightly in the thick sauce, and then put them into her mouth.

The sauce is not strong in taste but full of aroma. The meat slices dipped in the sauce are extremely firm yet tender.

After putting it in the mouth, just chew it three or two times, and it turns into a fragrant juice that flows down the throat. The mellow and smooth fragrance makes Orange almost bite his tongue.

"Wow, so delicious!"

After eating a piece of barbecue, Orange couldn't help but his eyes lit up, and Ke Ke couldn't help but jump up, their whole bodies were in a state of intense excitement.

"Come on, everyone, do it yourself. This meat doesn't need to be roasted for too long. Just do it like I did just now."

As Huo Yuhao spoke, he grilled a few slices for himself, dipped them in the sauce and put them in his mouth, sighing with satisfaction.

It is indeed the meat of a soul beast. Even if it is only from a ten-year-old soul beast, the quality of the meat is much better than the ordinary beef in the previous life!

The three of them began to feast.

Ke Ke looked at the little stars in Ju Zi's eyes, chuckled, bumped Ju Zi's arm, and whispered jokingly: "Ju Zi, didn't you say before that your dream lover is the best chef in the world?"

"I think Yuhao might be the true chef you're looking for. Would you like to consider it?"

Orange's fair and tender face suddenly turned red, and she said angrily: "Silly girl, what nonsense are you talking about! What true cook? It's a mess!"
