MC's career as foreign lord
Chapter 23 Breath of Life
"That's right!" Zhou Ren suddenly had a flash of inspiration, remembered something, ran to the edge of the fishing pond, and rummaged through the box for Nether quartz.
"That's not right!" He was still very puzzled, "Nether quartz shouldn't be among the things you can fish up!"
"Forget it, never mind. Diamond armor isn't in there either, but didn't Leah still fish it up?" Zhou Ren said, looking at the Nether quartz in his hand, and decisively ran towards the door.
He wanted to bring Leah back to try again. This little girl seemed to have some special, strange luck, always discovering some rare and strange things.
The strong wind outside the door was still whistling, making him feel very uncomfortable. Zhou Ren thought for a moment. It was difficult enough for him to walk into the wind, let alone Leah, so he stopped.
"This wind should be able to be blocked by something, right?" He thought, his hands not slowing down, and he directly piled up several blocks.
To prevent the soil or wood from being blown away, he very extravagantly used stones directly, making a small windbreak wall three meters high, all the way from his own gate to the front of the house opposite.
"Leah! Are you there!" Zhou Ren shouted, and saw the gatekeeper mercenary very politely open the curtain, and the young servant of old Ford came out, holding the little girl Leah's hand.
"Big brother!" Leah shouted, throwing away the little bear in her hand and pouncing over!
Zhou Ren quickly hugged her, and caught the bear by the way. This time Dag learned to be smart and stood directly on Zhou Ren's head, looking at the little elf with a puffed-up face!
"Lord Zhou Ren, Princess Leah is entrusted to you!" The young half-elf servant said, bowing and retreating.
Zhou Ren still remembered his name, it seemed to be Ika. He nodded slightly and picked up Leah.
"Leah, will you go fishing with me again?"
Leah nodded, "Okay, okay!"
He left with Leah in his arms. In the green barrier behind them, several mercenaries each held weapons, looking at them with complicated expressions as they walked into the territory with almost no wind.
"Wow! Big brother, why is there no wind in your place?" Leah said curiously.
Zhou Ren shook his head, "I don't know, is there wind everywhere?"
Leah nodded, pointing to the little bear, "Except for Bear Bear, everyone who enters the wind will slowly disappear. This is the Northwind Plains!"
Zhou Ren inquired roughly, but Leah was still a child after all, and she was not very clear about many things. She only knew that the wind would blow here at this time of year, lasting for about two months, intermittently.
But Leah had always been hiding in the barrier or the house (she called it a tree, and Zhou Ren thought that the elf's houses should all be trees), so she didn't have much experience.
Since the wall had already been built, Zhou Ren was not affected by the wind when he led Leah through here, and walked over very easily.
Some people who were in a hurry to return to the town in the distance also ran over quickly after seeing this scene, and hid under the wall built by Zhou Ren.
"Sir, can we rest here for a while? We will leave after we rest!" They said, their faces seemed to be full of scars from the wind.
Zhou Ren nodded, "Public area, you can rest as you please!"
As he spoke, a little stone appeared in his hand, surrounding the entire area, and he even sealed a top.
After thinking about it, he also opened a stone doorway next to it to facilitate their passage, "This is the direction to the town, and the other side is the direction to the wilderness, rest for a while!"
This unintentional act won the gratitude of everyone, and they bowed to the ground, "Thank you for your mercy, sir, we will leave after we rest!"
"No need, take a good rest!" Zhou Ren said, taking Leah away, leaving only the windbreak wall next to it.
The wind was very strange. Looking at the wounds of those people, it must be very uncomfortable to be injured. Zhou Ren was also compassionate for a while, leaving the windbreak wall.
Although his territory was very close to the town, it was actually still a distance away. This distance was actually a life obstacle for some people with poor physical strength!
Although he couldn't help everyone in the world, but since they were all human, Zhou Ren decided to help.
He quietly took Leah to a more distant place again. This was almost the edge of his territory, and he built a simple windbreak hut there, standing in the wind.
The hut in the wind looked very thin, but it was very strong. The gale even blew a huge creature into the sky, but it could not blow away the hut.
"It seems that all worlds have their special places!" Zhou Ren sighed. He originally thought that it should be very peaceful here except for the monsters on the wasteland, but…
But the wind should be avoidable, otherwise there would not be mercenaries running to the wasteland at this point. He could roughly figure out the problem.
It's nothing more than that, humans have to avoid the wind, and so do those monsters, which gives these people a chance to go and take advantage of the situation.
Whether it's seeking wealth in danger or no pain no gain, these people have the courage to do such things because they know the price.
Zhou Ren shook his head and didn't think about it. Since the wind only started blowing today, these people should be prepared.
"Leah, can you do me a favor?" Zhou Ren said. It wasn't that he didn't trust his fishing skills, but he really didn't have the ability to fish out things that shouldn't exist.
The little elf girl raised her hand happily, "Fishing? I like fishing the most!"
At this time, Zhou Ren remembered that although he had canceled Anna and Leah's entry permissions, he didn't seem to have canceled Leah's item bar permissions!
Although Anna stopped after digging a stone, and probably doesn't have the awareness to use the item bar now, Leah knows it, and he taught her by hand…
Leah took out a fishing rod from her item bar, "I fished a lot of fish for Bear Bear, but the fish in the river outside are so strong that I had to ask my aunt to help me so I could hold the fishing rod!"
Zhou Ren was stunned. Gosh, this little girl is so brave. He didn't dare to go to that kind of river outside to fish himself, but he didn't expect it!
However, Anna's strength is definitely enough, and Zhou Ren has this confidence. Since the little girl has no problems, he won't say anything discouraging.
"I want a little of this white stuff, can you help me fish it up! I'll help you make mushroom soup!" Zhou Ren said, "What do you want to eat for dinner, bread or meat?"
"Leah doesn't want to eat meat, meat is stinky, Leah wants to eat mushroom soup, wants to eat fruit!" The little girl said, and then hopped back to the fish pond behind the house.
Zhou Ren continued to walk back to the house. He was going to make a pair of scissors and cut some leaves to bring back. The tea hadn't been prepared yet, so he'd prepare for a rainy day!
He returned to the workshop. There were still about two hours until mealtime, and he should have enough time to finish the tea and build a home for the freshly picked mushrooms.
He had picked a lot of red and white mushrooms by the river just now, which would definitely be enough for soup tonight. Of course, it would also be enough for other dishes, but first he had to build a mushroom house.
Mushrooms are a special kind of plant. Their growth method is different from most species. Zhou Ren didn't have mycelium or weathered soil, so he couldn't grow giant mushrooms. He could only choose to cultivate small mushrooms.
The production of scissors is very simple. Two iron ingots can be placed diagonally in the crafting grid of the workbench or backpack. Scissors can be used to shear wool from sheep, leaves from trees, and vines from jungle trees. They are very useful tools.
In addition to scissors, there are also the materials for making a mushroom house. This mushroom house is actually a house for growing mushrooms. It doesn't need to be too big, just enough to eat.
(PS: I know that adding water can grow mushrooms, but I don't have bone meal yet. Besides, exploiting bugs is not good—this is not a feature)
Walking out of the house, the first thing to do was to cut some leaves. Zhou Ren quickly collected some leaves, and then took out the workbench on the spot. Nine squares of leaves were directly synthesized into broken tea leaves. New material OVER!
The newest novels are first published on 6 9 Book Bar!
Then, to build the mushroom house, he still used the simplest materials, which were cobblestones that looked like they were pieced together from broken stones. He built it on the open space near the farmland, just like a solid greenhouse.
The growing conditions for mushrooms are very harsh. It can't be too bright or too dark. If it's too bright, they won't grow, and if it's too dark, monsters will spawn. So Zhou Ren deliberately built the house a little higher and hung a torch from the top as a light source.
This light source was just enough for the mushrooms to grow, and it could also illuminate the surrounding space. If monsters really appeared one day, at least they wouldn't come out of the mushroom house.
Then, on the ground, Zhou Ren planted a few mushrooms very sparsely, not concentrated, mainly to allow the mushrooms to have enough space to extend and develop.
Zhou Ren took one last look at the house, and after confirming that nothing was missing, he slowly closed the door and left.
Artificial planting areas are just a temporary measure. In the future, automated planting will definitely be necessary, which is an indispensable trend.
As for now, everything is lacking, and it's embarrassing to make an automatic planting and harvesting system. Even redstone is lacking, so what can be made?
He tidied up the mushroom house again, and quickly scanned the entire farm with the afterglow of the setting sun, nodding in satisfaction.
"Hooray! Leah succeeded!" Leah's happy cheers came from outside the house over there. Zhou Ren quickly ran over to check the situation.
"Big brother!" Leah shouted happily, holding a piece of white Nether quartz in her hand. "Leah caught something good! Today Leah wants to eat mushroom soup!"
"Okay, okay, okay!" Zhou Ren was also very happy, and even the bear on his head jumped up. "Then I'll make soup for you!"
He patted the bear on his head, which was a little restless. "You'll have some too. Tonight, you'll eat grilled fish!"
Little Bear Dag calmed down, squatted on Zhou Ren's head, and watched his master motionless.
He felt that the top of this human's head was much more comfortable. Unlike his master, who would take him down, touch him, hug him, and cuddle him, and occasionally toss him around.
How pitiful he was! He wasn't some kind of flying insect, he was just a pitiful, helpless, but edible little sprite. What kind of bad intentions could he have?
"Bear! You're not being good! Come down!" Leah said, but after seeing that Dag didn't respond, she wasn't discouraged and ran around the house, "Thump, thump, thump!"
"Be careful not to drop it!" Zhou Ren said, and then walked into the kitchen to get busy.
In fact, the things in MC don't need to be considered so rigidly and realistically, but can be easily mixed and matched, such as the cooking pot in the Tea Winds mod.
The function of this pot is to cook rice and stir-fry tea, but in Zhou Ren's hands, it can also be used for stewing soup and stir-frying vegetables.
This pot cost him three pieces of wood and five iron ingots, which can be considered a high consumption, but it has also developed many uses. In general, it's probably—you might make a bloody profit, but I'll never lose?
Of course, the dishes made in this kind of pot seem to taste good and have a good satiety, but there is one thing that is not very good, that is, it will not be recognized by the MC system.
It's like the difference between a genuine version and a pirated version. The dishes he makes in this way cannot be saved or stacked. Perhaps the biggest advantage is convenience?
If he adds a platform, he can even use this pot directly to cook hot pot. Thinking about it, it seems very beautiful?
The method of using this pot is very simple. Just ignite it directly with flint and steel. Anyway, the infinite fire is not afraid of consumption. The fire will automatically extinguish after the dishes are finished, and you don't even have to worry about fire.
The flint and steel is made of iron and flint brought by Henry. One can be used for a long time, so there is no need to worry about wasting it.
He threw the fish that Little Bear Dag was going to eat into the furnace. This was a salmon, and it looked very plump.
As for Leah's mushroom soup, it is actually the simplest. Put a wooden bowl, a red mushroom, and a brown mushroom together to synthesize a bowl of steaming mushroom pot!
Plus two freshly baked apples and lemons, a hearty dinner is only missing Little Bear's fish!
"Pa Pa Pa!" Leah stomped on the wooden floor of the house, making strange noises, and also made the bear sitting on the table turn its head and look at her holding a very large prop on its head.
Zhou Ren looked at it, not knowing whether to laugh or cry, and quickly ran over to take off the lid. "Leah, where's your inventory? Why are you putting the lid on your head?"
This is the lid of the tea-stirring pot. Zhou Ren directly put it on the pot and asked somewhat strangely.
"The inventory is full, all fish, I want to take it to my aunt and teacher to eat, so I can only put it on my head!" Leah said with a confident tone!
Zhou Ren patted her little head. "Okay, go wash your hands by the pool and get ready to eat!"
Then he threw a fish directly into the bowl, and Little Bear Dag struggled to climb in, and then overturned the bowl in the next second.
"Giggle giggle!" Leah laughed, "Bear, you're so stupid!"
She said, helping him put the bowl back in place, and then pinched Dag and put him down again.
