Monster life starting from picking up materials

Xia Bao put down the sword and came over. He looked at the photo with confusion, tilted his head, and rested his head on Ji Jie's shoulder. It was obvious that he did not recognize himself.

"Let's try again during the day."

Ji Jie raised his arm and patted Xia Bao's face, and Xia Bao moved his head, raised his paw and touched Ji Jie's side, then pointed to the herbs and blending tools in the small bag.

He wanted Ji Jie to continue mixing the nutrients, but he was disappointed not to find mountains of nutrients and life dust in the fortress.

"Okay, when we get to the fertile south, there will definitely be more herbs. I'll mix them for you."

Ji Jie picked up the mixing tool, then ground the bitter worms and blue mushrooms into powder and put them into bottles. He would add water when he got to the stream later, or soak them directly in honey if he found honey.

When he had packed up his tools, he noticed the snoring sound coming from his ear. Xia Bao had fallen asleep, and her head was slowly sliding down from her shoulders. He bent his arm to catch it, but Xia Bao woke up immediately.

"Not getting some more sleep?"

Xia Bao shook his head and looked at the plain behind the mountains. He looked very energetic and seemed to want to set off right away.

"We have to go back and find Nana first. We can't forget her."

When mentioning the Flame Queen Dragon, Xia Bao nodded quickly to show that she had not forgotten.

The two dragons flapped their wings from the top of the mountain and glided in the direction they came from.

They didn't fly too far before they saw bright lava pouring down from the crater, and above it, black smoke was rising.

It was obviously not like this when we came here. The volcano had obviously erupted before.

This made Ji Jie speed up, and he quickly entered the volcanic cave before leaving. He followed the smell to search for Nana's trace and found the dusty Yan Feilong.

Nana's face was covered with a layer of volcanic ash, as was her mane. Ji Jie couldn't help laughing for a moment. Xia Bao, who was standing next to him, was stunned by Nana's dignified appearance and also made a mocking sound.

"Roar!"

The laughter of the two dragons made Nana's face fall instantly. She shook her mane vigorously and returned to her previous appearance.

"What's going on? Did you explode the volcano?"

Facing Nana's serious expression, Ji Jie had to stop smiling. His eyes fell on other places in the cave, and he finally saw the green monster.

The monster was dead, but its big mouth with ferocious fangs was still captivating. It was red all over and had a huge head. Xia Bao was so frightened by its extremely intimidating appearance that she shrank behind Ji Jie.

This is a wild ghost frog.

No, there is more than one, there is a second wild ghost frog lying behind.

Nana walked closer, blocked Ji Jie's view of the Desolate Ghost Frog, and slapped the sharp horn of the Xialong.

Ji Jie understood what she meant and quickly transformed into the form of Flame King Dragon, and Flame Queen Dragon's forehead touched his own.

During the battle with the Tyrannosaurus, Nana saw the shadow of the Devil Frog running by, and remembered the Gas Frog that he liked to eat, so he left the Tyrannosaurus and chased after the Devil Frog.

In this cave beside the water, she found a pair of wild ghost frogs hugging each other.

Then there was a series of ghost frogs jumping around and a series of explosions. The cave of the wild ghost frog collapsed, and the volcano erupted under the power of the Yangyan Dragon.

"A frog this big looks like it would be really delicious to eat."

Looking at the two frogs lying on the ground, Ji Jie licked his fangs.

Chapter 572 Red Soup Ghost Frog Hotpot.

The shell of the ghost frog was sticky, so Ji Jie transformed into Mingbo Dragon to rinse it thoroughly before biting it. Then he used the fangs of Flame King Dragon to pierce it and tear off an entire hind leg.

The ghost frog looks round and plump, very much like a giant gas frog, but with two scary fangs on the edge of its chin, and the spines on its upper face forming a shell, its front appearance is like Prajna.

The Wild Ghost Frog's face has changed from red to blue, its fangs are larger, and it can scoop up volcanic rocks to fight its enemies.

The ghost frog has the habit of digging caves to create love nests to attract the opposite sex. However, there is a possibility that the caves will collapse due to indiscriminate digging. In fact, the battle with the Flame Queen Dragon caused a volcanic eruption.

The hard skin that forms the shell of the ghost frog is flexible but also brittle. If it is roasted over a fire, it should have a very crispy taste.

Nana picked up the pot and filled it with water as usual. Holding the pot in her mouth, she tilted her head and looked at Ji Jie, asking him how to eat it.

"Frog..."

He thought of the bullfrog meat in the red soup hot pot, and for a moment the raw frog meat he was chewing in his mouth lost its taste.

"But we don't have hot pot base, so we can only add more bones and simmer it."

Taking the pot and putting it down, Ji Jie stared at the water in the pot and unexpectedly found ghost frog eggs in it.

I walked to the edge of the pond and took another look. Sure enough, the ghost frog had laid a large number of eggs in the pond.

Shaking his head, he poured the water containing frog eggs back into the pot, then Ji Jie went to the upper reaches of the pond and filled it with water again.

"Try not to collect water from ponds with stagnant water. It's not very hygienic."

He put the pot back on the ground and asked Nana to light the fire, while Ji Jie went to deal with the ghost frog.

The sharp claws skinned and boned the wild ghost frog. The frog's bones were smooth and shiny. After being broken off, they were put into the pot to stew. The pure water turned into frog bone soup at a speed visible to the naked eye.

After finding some chili peppers, Ji Jie put on a strange smile and poured all the chili peppers, which would be lethal to ordinary creatures, into the pot.

A pungent and pungent smell suddenly rose up, forcing Nana to poke her nose to avoid being choked.

Looking at the soup pot that was stained with oil and shiny from the chili peppers, Ji Jie nodded with satisfaction, and lay down beside Nana to watch the jumping flames with her.

The aroma in the pot becomes stronger and stronger. Frog bones are rich in collagen and calcium, and the soup they make is also delicious.

When the soup was too shallow, add some more water and add the torn ghost frog meat into it.

Salt and seasonings, the latter of which should be added in large quantities. Hot pot, after all, has to have a strong flavor.

The soup was boiling and steam was rising. Just standing in front of the pot made his eyes feel stinging, but Ji Jie still felt that something was missing.

He looked around and his eyes fell on the sword that Xia Bao was fiddling with.

He transformed into Tengumon, took the sword, and after washing it briefly, he stood up using his tail to support his body, and used the sword as chopsticks to stir the food in the pot.

"Yes, that's the feeling, turning it over from time to time, waiting for the meat to be cooked!"

The temperature in the pot is very high, and even the frog meat of the wild ghost frog will be cooked tenderly and pink very quickly.

The frog meat that was fished out was covered with wet red soup, and you could feel the spiciness just by looking at it.

Tengumon's beak was not suitable for eating meat in such large mouthfuls, so the piece of meat reached Nana's mouth.

Nana sniffed twice and hesitated a little, but still reached out and grabbed the meat.

"Sha, Sha!"

She was obviously hurt by the spiciness, but the salty and fragrant taste amplified by the spiciness made her reluctant to spit out the meat. However, the pain made her forget to swallow, so she could only let the soft frog meat roll in her mouth with the "sha" of her tongue, constantly stimulating her mouth.

The eyes of the Flame Dragon instantly turned red, and a flame shot out of its mouth, directly burning the Tengumon opposite.

"I'm going, I'm going, I'm going!"

Ji Jie fell off the tail and rolled on the ground, which put out the flames on Huoyan's body. A lot of his beautiful hair was burned.

But he didn't care. He just stood up his tail again and looked at Nana:

"So, is it delicious?"

Yan Feilong was smacking his lips, staring at the frog meat boiling in the pot in silence for a moment, then nodded with some difficulty.

Spicy, but really delicious.

"Ha, as long as it tastes good, would Xiabao like some?"

Ji Jie was not in a hurry to eat, but just enjoyed the feeling of taking it out of the hot pot. The wet frog meat was picked up by the sword and pointed at Xia Bao.

Xia Bao looked at the dripping red soup, leaned in to sniff it, and then shook her head violently.

After eating chili peppers once, he no longer wants to eat spicy food. His whole body will turn red after eating spicy food.

"Ok."

At the end of the season, his chin bounced and he dropped to the ground. He placed his sword on the edge of the pot and then transformed it into a golden lion with a bigger mouth. He placed his hands on the edge of the boiling hot pot, took the frog meat and put it into his mouth. In an instant, he was pulled so hard that he let out a strange roar like a golden lion.

"Bluff, bluff, bluff! bluff!"

The spiciness pierced the taste buds like needles, but the fresh aroma of the frog meat seeped in along the path opened up by the spiciness.

The tongue kept turning over and over in pain, but this made the frog meat dance on the tip of the tongue as well. More needles with a fresh fragrance pierced through the mouth and reached the brain.

As the ghost frog danced in his mouth, the boiling hot soup splashed upward into his respiratory tract. The thorny pain was like choking his throat, successfully awakening the burning power.

"throat!"

A flame shot out from its mouth, and the golden lion's arms hardened at the same time, rising steam.

"Bluff! To be honest! I kind of regret it!"

Ji Jie's eyes were red as he ran to the stream on all fours and drank water in big gulps, trying to suppress the burning pain from his mouth to his throat.

But this is underground in a volcano, and the warm water did not relieve the burning pain. Instead, it made the taste buds on the tongue more sensitive, and the remaining spiciness also surged up.

“No more!!!”

The flames dyed the golden lion's body red, and its devilish wings spread out on its back. The Flame King Dragon was wrapped in raging flames, and he roared to the sky. The column of fire rushed straight to the ceiling.

The magma also boiled at the command, and rushed out of the crater with a rumbling explosion. It was particularly conspicuous in the night sky, and the flame column rising into the sky could be seen in the surrounding areas.

The volcano erupted again.

"Phew, feel good."

After the release, Ji Jie missed the wonderful taste of the frog meat when he first put it in his mouth. He looked at Nana beside the pot, who was also breathing fire while picking up frog meat from the pot and eating it. The fire scene was also releasing uncontrollably.

Today, the volcano continues.

"That is……"

"Yang Yanlong prefers volcanoes as their habitat. After following them all the way here, this volcano is the most likely place for the Yang Yanlong couple to settle down."

A scholar spoke up, gesturing with a map in his hand.

Further west, there is a larger volcanic belt near the ancient city of Shuled, but there are also more dangerous monsters in that volcanic belt.

"Perhaps they are currently clearing out monsters that could threaten them in the volcano?"

The female scholar looked at the lava flow under the night sky and always felt that something was wrong.

Chapter 573 Where is the Xialong?

After a while, at the foot of the volcano, there was a cave.

"I found some footprints and traces of battle here, but I didn't witness any of their activities."

"Same here."

When the two teams stopped exploring the volcano and gathered together to summarize the intelligence, they found that their investigation results were almost the same.

Only footprints were seen but no trace of the person. The Yangyanlong couple did not regard this volcano as the end of their journey.

The eruption also destroyed a lot of traces, which allowed them to only determine that the couple stayed in the area for a period of time, but could not determine where they finally went.

"There's still a team that hasn't returned yet. Who knows what clues they might have found in the area they explored."

"We can't stay in the volcano for too long. If we were any later, we would have left a mark and evacuated first. We encountered a Tyrannosaurus Rex on the way to the rendezvous and were almost discovered."

Bug Stick lifted his collar to get some fresh air. In addition to the heat, the volcano that had just erupted also contained harmful gases and rioting monsters.

"There are footsteps, humans, but there seem to be too many people?"

A hunter spoke up, crouching close to the ground, listening to the noises outside the cave.

"We're back. On the way, we encountered an expedition from the Stronghold. It took some time to deal with the red velociraptors chasing them."

The visitors were none other than the third team led by Hubble.

"Welcome, are there any clues about volcanoes you can share?"

Bug Stick looked behind Hubble, where there were four adventurers who were dressed lightly but with complete protective gear.

"To be honest, we encountered a monster just as we were approaching the volcano, so we didn't have time to go in."

The captain of the adventurers was very young, so young that he was a little reckless.

After some conversation, they learned that a nearby fortress had issued a commission to explore the volcano. These people knew several cave paths that could quickly reach the volcano, so they accepted the commission.
