Chapter 203: Chapter 203: Barbecue Scene Chapter 203: Chapter 203: Barbecue Scene “Raw it tastes ordinary, but fried in oil it’s truly delicious.”
“…” Bai Junjun.
Upon hearing they could fry it in oil, the child happily took a bottle to fill with bee pupae.
After cleaning the bee pupae and honey, only the dirty or hard parts of the beehive remained.
Everyone looked curiously at these inedible remnants, but Li Wenli said they also had a great use, and he would deal with them later.
Then Li Wenli went to find his string of forgotten birds.
At that mont, the group of plump birds chosen for the feast, each appeared panicked and helpless. Seeing Li Wenli approaching, they imdiately showed their pitiable and adorable side, attempting to gain sympathy from this bipedal creature.
However, they were facing the most callous and rciless incarnation of the Fox.
Li Wenli just chuckled and stretched out his slender hand, expertly twisting each neck, snapping them all.
“…” The birds.
Li Wenli swiftly removed the birds’ innards and then scalded them in hot water.
He then instructed Bai Lingyu and Xiao Shan to pluck the feathers from the birds that had been scalded.
With his instructions given, Li Wenli took out his ever-present pouch, which surprisingly contained quite a few waterproof bottles and jars.
Once all the birds were bare, Li Wenli began to rub them with his homade black salt and so powders that Bai Junjun couldn’t na.
Seeing Bai Junjun standing there like a foreman, Li Wenli couldn’t help but laugh, “What are you looking at? Hurry up and bring over a couple of brushes.”
“…” Bai Junjun gave him a speechless glance, but eventually obediently went to look for the brushes.
But where could one find brushes in this wild mountain range?
Bai Junjun, having no other option, went to the river bank, found so water grass, flattened one end, and though one end was solid and the other part was frayed, it roughly made do as a brush.
By the ti Bai Junjun returned with the makeshift brushes, Li Wenli had already started roasting the birds. At this point, the birds were skewered on sticks, each person holding two.
Bai Junjun’s share was also set aside. Without needing to be told, Bai Junjun automatically picked up her own and walked towards the fire pit.
Thus, the grand barbecue picnic began unexpectedly.
Everyone watched their birds intently, carefully turning them, afraid of charring them.
As the temperature rose, the birds began to drip fat.
Li Wenli caught this dripping fat in a cup, saying it would be useful later.
Bai Junjun couldn’t help but scoff inwardly. He had said she was wasteful for using lard for lamps, yet here he was, collecting the fat.
When the birds stopped releasing oil, their skin changed from white to light yellow, then to a golden brown… Everyone witnessed this transformation.
At first the at had to lose its water content and fat to cook properly, but close to being done, it would beco dry for lack of fat.
At that point, Li Wenli retrieved the collected fat and brushed it over all the bird at once more.
The birds that were brushed with the fat regained their vitality.
Bai Junjun sneaked a glance at Li Wenli, thinking he wanted to make a lamp with oil like she did… but apparently not.
Li Wenli amusingly glanced back at Bai Junjun without mockery, then fetched so honey and applied a layer to everyone’s birds with a clean brush.
The already fragrant birds released an even richer aroma, causing everyone to swallow their saliva involuntarily.
After a while, Li Wenli grinned and said, “Alright, let’s eat now.”
At Li Wenli’s command, everyone briskly retrieved their birds from the fire.
They could hardly bear the roasting process, and now they could finally taste it.
If they waited any longer, they wouldn’t be able to restrain themselves!
