Chapter 81 Hot spring bath
After Master Li left, Yun Ci poured out the excess water that had settled in the large vat and basin.
After two cycles, the potato starch that had settled at the bottom was clean and free of impurities.
Yun Ci added clear, clean water back into the large vat and basin, and stirred it with a large wooden stick to fully mix the potato starch that had settled at the bottom with the water.
Put away the long table in the lower right corner of the yard, and put all the large basins and vats on that large open space to let the potato starch settle overnight.
night.
The night sky was dotted with stars, and birds and animals flew by from time to time, making the sound of their wings flapping.
Three young boys and a little white animal sat in the yard, with a sumptuous dinner on the table.
Everyone was holding a crystal-clear pig's trotter and gnawing on it.
Chu Ziming poured the soup over the rice, ate a big mouthful, and then picked up several more bites of vegetables and put them in his mouth.
His lips were shiny with oil, and then he took a big bite of the pig's trotter.
Spitting out the bones.
"Yun Ci, although this pig's trotter has a lot of bones and is troublesome to eat, it is also very delicious! It's just as good as braised pork."
He wants to eat it again, and he also wants to eat braised pork.
The pig's trotters were so big that they smeared sauce all over Yun Ci's fair and soft face.
Hearing Chu Ziming's words, Yun Ci nodded her little head.
"Mmm, the pig's trotters are super delicious!"
Stewed pig's trotters are delicious, and roasted pig's trotters are delicious too!
Little White tore at the skin full of collagen, gnawing on the pig's trotters without even lifting its head.
Seeing that the food in Xiaobai's small bowl was gone, Yun Ci picked up some food and put it into the small white bowl.
Stir well with the small white spoon.
There was a small pile of bones in front of each person.
After dinner, my stomach was completely full.
Chu Ziming clutched his round belly.
"It's so delicious, *burp*"
Yun Ci was also full, so she sat on the stool, looked up at the stars, and rested.
"Phew, I'm so full!"
Hei Zi looked at Yun Ci, gave a faint smile, and got up to quietly clear the dishes.
Yun Ci blinked after seeing it.
He's been living with Kuroko these past few days and has gotten used to Kuroko's diligence.
Not only does she voluntarily wash the dishes and clean the yard, but she also washes his clothes and airs out his blankets...
He's so much more diligent than that idiot Chu Ziming!
Yun Ci felt embarrassed and could only tell Hei Zi that he didn't need to do so much.
Hei Zi told him that he was used to it, and if he didn't do something, he would feel embarrassed to stay any longer.
Yun Ci had no choice but to give up, and sometimes she would come with Hei Zi.
At this moment, Yun Ci looked at Hei Zi, who was washing the dishes by the well, and then at Chu Zi Mo, who was lying down like the old man.
Yun Ci shook her head and sighed.
Chu Ziming turned his head and saw Yun Ci looking at him, shaking his head and sighing.
???
Chu Ziming looked as if the sky had fallen.
Why is Yun Ci looking at him like that? Why is Yun Ci looking at him like that? Why is Yun Ci looking at him like that?
Waaaaah, why is Yun Ci looking at him like that?!
Just as Chu Ziming was about to speak, he saw Yun Ci looking at Hei Zi and sighing again.
Chu Ziming also looked towards Hei Zi's direction.
Suddenly remembering how "attentive" Hei Zi had been to Yun Ci these past few days, Chu Zi Mo's eyes widened.
Yun Ci doesn't think he's inferior to Hei Zi, does he?
No!
Chu Ziming got up and stormed to the well.
Yun Ci looked puzzled upon seeing this scene.
What is this idiot up to now?
Chu Ziming walked over to Hei Zi, snatched the bowl from Hei Zi's hand, and said irritably, "Get out of the way! I'll do it!"
You're everywhere. Don't think that just because you wash the dishes you're Yun Ci's best friend.
I'm the one who knows or doesn't know!
Heizi looked down at the bowl that had been taken from him.
Noticing that Yun Ci was looking at him, Hei Zi looked bewildered and quickly stood to the side.
They are so weak and pitiful.
Yun Ci frowned, "Chu Ziming..."
Chu Ziming heard Yun Ci call him and immediately turned around.
"Hmm, what's wrong, Yun Ci? Look, isn't this bowl cleaner than before?"
Yun Ci, “…”
Yun Ci told Chu Ziming to be nicer to Hei Zi, then got up and wiped the table with a cloth.
......
After tidying up, Yun Ci went to the well, picked up a wooden basin, and put the soap and towel inside.
Chu Ziming and Hei Zi each held a basin and stood at the door.
"Yun Ci, hurry up, you still need to take your medicine when you get back."
Chu Ziming urged.
"Come on, come on!"
Yun Ci ran to Chu Zi Mo and Hei Zi's side, carrying the wooden basin.
At this moment, the three young boys were going to take a bath at Lingquan Peak.
This wasn't their first time there; they'd been several times already, sometimes even going for a soak before bed.
Three young boys entered Lingquan Peak.
Inside, the air was thick with heat and smoke, creating a significant temperature difference compared to the outside.
Before long, Yun Ci's face was flushed red from the smoke.
However, I didn't feel uncomfortable inside.
There were still many disciples soaking in the hot springs below, and several of them greeted Yun Ci when they saw him.
Yun Ci would always respond with a smile.
The three boys looked around and saw that people were soaking in the hot spring pools outside, and some were even meditating and cultivating.
They went inside and found a pool where no one was.
After soaking, Yun Ci took out lemon water, lemon slices and candied fruit from her storage ring and gave them to Chu Ziming and Hei Zi.
The three boys soaked in the hot spring while drinking refreshing, sweet and sour lemonade.
After taking a few sips, he put the bamboo tube on the shore and then picked up a lemon slice to eat.
The people in the surrounding pools looked at Yun Ci and his two companions with envy.
Soaking in a warm hot spring while drinking slightly cool lemonade.
It must feel incredibly comfortable!
Unfortunately, they had already finished their lemonade.
Some people were itching to go up and ask Yun Ci to buy some, but they didn't dare to go over when they saw Chu Ziming.
After an unknown amount of time, Yun Ci and the other two finished soaking and prepared to go back.
A person dressed in the robes of an inner disciple walked over.
“Yun Ci”.
Yun Ci looked at the rather good-looking person in front of her and nodded slightly. "Hello, is there anything I can help you with?"
Those around were watching Yun Ci closely, and when they saw the person walking by, those who recognized him showed expressions of surprise.
"Look, that's Ji Yu."
"Ji Yu? It really is him! What is he doing going to see Yun Ci?"
“I remember now, Ji Yu bought Yun Ci’s food before, they should know each other now.”
"Should I go say hello? I'm also a disciple of Beast Taming Peak, but Ji Yu probably won't pay any attention to me..."
"Then you shouldn't go. Who are you, and who is he...?"
Ji Yu looked at Yun Ci, whose cheeks were flushed from soaking in the hot spring and whose eyes were misty with tears, and clasped his hands in a fist salute.
"Excuse me, I couldn't resist seeing Junior Brother Yun drinking lemonade, so I came over to ask if I could buy him a cup?"
Yun Ci wondered what it was about.
Seeing that the person in front of him was quite polite, he nodded, took out a bamboo tube of lemonade and a bag of lemon slices from his storage ring.
"Give."
Ji Yu looked at the things Yun Ci handed over and immediately took them.
"How many spirit stones?"
Yun Ci shook her head, "No need, you can have it."
Ji Yu paused, "How could I possibly accept that..."
Yun Ci smiled and shook her head. "It's okay, it's not food time anyway, I'm leaving now."
Ji Yu immediately clasped his hands in a fist and bow, "Thank you very much, Junior Brother Yun."
The people around stared in disbelief at the scene.
Seeing the lemonade and lemon slices in Ji Yu's hand, they instantly regretted not telling Yun Ci sooner.
By this time, Yun Ci and the others had already left.
Ji Yu took the things in his hand and returned to the hot spring pool where he had been soaking.
"Hello, Senior Brother Ji."
A voice came from the side.
Ji Yu glanced sideways and saw the person with the solicitous smile.
The clothes in the basin next to that disciple were the disciple robes of their Beast Taming Peak.
Ji Yu nodded slightly in response.
Yun Ci returned home, played around with Chu Ziming in the yard for a while, and then went to sleep after taking her medicine.
