If Du Heng hadn't stopped Feng Gui and the others in time, they would have roasted all the meat prepared by Du Heng and fed Xiaoxiao.

I ate a barbecue for nearly an hour. After everyone finished eating the barbecue, the snow outside finally stopped.

The yard was covered with a layer of snow-white white, and Du Heng couldn't bear to step on it, for fear that if a footprint fell, the beautiful scene would be destroyed.

But Xiaoxiao didn't realize this. He flew into the yard with his small wings, leaving two rows of bamboo leaves-like footprints.

Jing Nan touched her stomach with satisfaction and asked Du Heng a deep question: "What should I eat tonight?"

Du Heng's mouth twitched. Is it too early to ask this question now? Du Heng thought they could not move.

Du Heng, who was a good-tempered person, thought for a while and said, "Do you drink porridge tonight? You eat so greasy at noon, how about eating lighter at night? I cook potato porridge and make a few refreshing side dishes."

Jing Nan said it was very good: "Well, this is good."

Du Heng said to Xuan Yu: "Let's marinate the meat in the afternoon." Xuan Yu said: "Okay." Feng Gui couldn't understand: "What is marinate?"

Du Heng explained: "It is to marinate the meat with salt and seasoning for a period of time to make bacon or bacon, which tastes unique." Feng Gui nodded: "Oh, is the meat enough?" Du Heng said: "It's enough, and the old knife has sent a lot."

Feng Gui looked at Tiankong and said, "Make more, I'll send you some more meat later. Someone will come to the village in two days." Du Heng looked at Xuan Yu, and Xuan Yu said to him, "Just do it according to your own ideas, don't worry about them."

Xuan Yu said to Feng Gui: "Come and welcome to eat, but it is not enough to call Du Heng."

Du Heng:...What's going on with this sudden touch?

Feng Gui looked at Xuan Yu with a complicated expression, and before he could speak, Du Heng smoothed out: "It's okay, I'll do more. Is he Feng Gui's acquaintance? Do you need to live in the village for a long time?"

Feng Gui's expression then calmed down: "They are all polite people. If you want, do more."

Du Heng smiled and said, "No problem, Lao Dao gave a lot of meat. Not to mention two more people, it's okay even if there are two more." Feng Gui looked at Xuan Yu and smiled: "Did you see? It was Du Heng who spoke himself."

After saying this, Feng Gui hummed a little tune and floated away, like a proud big rooster.

Jing Nan stretched out: "I feel so good after eating, so I'll go and do it first." Jing Nan also floated away, only Du Heng and Xuan Yu were left in the yard. Du Heng turned his head and saw Xuan Yu calm. But he still felt Xuan Yu a little depressed. Xuan Yu glanced at Du Heng deeply, and then returned to the kitchen.

Du Heng looked at Xuan Yu's back and always felt that Xuan Yu was not very comfortable. Thinking about it carefully, Du Heng felt that he might have done something wrong. Xuan Yu was protecting himself in front of Feng Gui, but he was in a position to save Xuan Yu's face. If Xuan Yu was Xuan Yu, he would not be in a good mood.

But Du Heng had his own troubles. He had just arrived in the village, and there were only a few people in the village. It was correct that he wanted to have a good relationship with everyone. Du Heng scratched his hair, why didn't he apologize to Xuan Yu? He didn't want Xuan Yu, who had been caring for him and defending him, to have any objections to him.

Du Heng walked to the kitchen: "Xuan Yu... that... I was sorry just now, I was afraid that you and Feng Gui had an unhappy relationship..." Xuan Yu walked out of the kitchen with a wooden basin: "Hmm?"

Du Heng's apology stuck in his throat: "What are you doing?" Xuan Yu said: "Don't you want to cure meat? It may be easier to operate in the yard. I'll prepare the venue for you first." Du Heng was very moved: "Thank you Xuan Yu."

Xuan Yu's mouth raised a little curve: "No need to thank you. By the way, what do you need to pickle meat? If there is not enough, I'll help you find it?" Du Heng was quickly led by Xuan Yu: "You need pepper and salt!"

Du Heng is preparing to make two kinds of meat, one is the bacon that he is familiar with, and the other is bacon.

Bacon is very simple to make. You just need to use salt to apply evenly around the meat cut into strips, then place it in a basin and marinate for about a week. After a week, you can take out the meat, wash away the blood with clean water, and then hang it in a sunny place to dry. After more than ten days, the meat will become hard and can be stored for a long time.

Bacon is more complicated than bacon. The salt of marinated bacon needs to be stir-fried with peppercorns. The fried salt has the aroma of peppercorns and then cools to the point where it is not hot before it can be used to marinate bacon.

The bacon has one more process than bacon, which is fumigation. After ten days of marination, the bacon needs to be picked up and dried until half dry, and then the bacon needs to be fumigated with smoke from the branches of pine and cypress.

Du Heng's mother would make some bacon when she cooked the cured meat in previous years. In addition to meat, she would also make some sausages, salted chicken, salted duck, etc.... By the time it was brewed, salted chicken and bacon were hung everywhere on the balcony in the yard.

In Du Heng's era, you can tell the family's family's situation by looking at the cured flavors prepared in the yard. The quality of the cured flavors can become the standard for evaluating whether the housewife is skillful. Therefore, every year when making cured flavors, Du Heng's parents will be very serious.

Du Heng was so sorry that he couldn't eat the cured meat made by his parents this year. He looked at Xuan Yu who was helping him divide the meat strips, and his thoughts flew to his home where he was. He missed home, and he didn't know if he would have a chance to go back to see the two elders in this life.

Xuan Yu sensitively captured Du Heng's depression, and the knife in his hand kept: "What's wrong?" Du Heng suddenly came to his senses: "I missed a little homesick."

Xuan Yu understood it as another meaning: "If you miss the Medicine King Valley, when the flowers bloom next spring, I will accompany you to the Medicine King Valley for a trip." Medicine King Valley? Du Heng suddenly remembered that the Medicine King Valley was the original Du Heng's 'home', but he was not convenient for him to say anything.

He smiled and said, "I'm afraid that going back will only cause a lot of trouble. Have you forgotten? I offended the Demon Lord Yan Wu regretted it, maybe he is waiting for me to go back in the Medicine King Valley." Xuan Yu lowered his eyes: "Yes."

Du Heng thought for a while: "Speaking of this, I really have one thing I want to do. I have been in the village for so long. Now I have a home, so I have settled down. I want to write a letter to my senior brothers in Medicine King Valley to tell them about my current situation so that they can avoid worrying."

Xuan Yu said: "This is not difficult. Fenggui has a puppet bird that can cross the Dongji Mountain. Just borrow it and use it."

Du Heng smiled and narrowed his eyes: "Really? Thank you Xuan Yu." Xuan Yu looked at Du Heng's eyes: "You don't need to say thank you between you and me."

It was a pleasure to watch Xuan Yu cut meat. The irregular pieces of meat could become strips of five fingers wide when they came to his hands. He rolled up his sleeves and poked the tip of the knife on the skin at one end of the strip, and holes that could strung ropes appeared on the meat in the future.

Just looking at Xuan Yu's meat cut, Du Heng can enjoy it for a day. Of course, he has more important things to do, and he needs to fry the pepper and salt.

Xuan Yu easily processed a piece of meat from the mountain paste alone, and the processed meat was piled up in the wooden basin and it was piled up: "Is this enough?" Du Heng happened to leave the kitchen with the fried pepper salt. He looked at the wooden basin and nodded repeatedly: "Enough is enough!"

To be honest, this is Xuan Yu's help. If Du Heng changed to cut the meat by himself, he would be afraid that his arms would not be able to lift up at night. Du Heng divided the meat into two halves, half used for bacon and half for bacon.

It is easy to make bacon. Just apply salt to the meat and compact it in the wooden barrel. Xuan Yu can help with this. With Xuan Yu's help, the large wooden barrel containing bacon was placed under the eaves of the corridor. Du Heng added a lid on it, and as long as the lid was opened, you can see the pickling of the meat inside.

When the bacon is ready and the fried pepper salt is just about to be warm. At this time, the pepper has changed color, not as red as when I first bought it. They are mixed in the salt, and the redness at the beginning turns gray-brown. The snow-white salt is also dyed with the color of the pepper, slightly yellow. At this time, you don’t have to deliberately smell it, you can smell a strong pepper smell.

Du Heng and Xuan Yu were very fast, and they quickly smeared the remaining meat with pepper and salt.

Two large wooden barrels appeared under the eaves of the galley outside the kitchen. Du Heng looked at the kitchen and smiled helplessly: "Why don't you put it here? The house I finally built has been built. Not long after I moved in, I have added so many jars and jars."

Xuan Yu was busy cleaning up the large wooden basin, and a lot of salt and peppercorns fell from the wooden basin: "Put wherever you think it is appropriate, this is your home."

Du Heng:...I was so touched. Xuan Yu is really a little angel.

When Xuan Yu was processing the mountain paste, some of the minced meat was cut off. Although it was not a lot, there were two large bowls. Du Heng carefully packed the minced meat. In two days, when he fryed meatballs and wrapped steamed buns, there were too many places to use meat, which could not be wasted at all.

I was busy making bacon and bacon all afternoon. After the first process of the two kinds of meat was prepared, Du Heng hurriedly went to make dinner. Fortunately, the supper was easy to cook, so everyone drank a few bowls of sweet potato porridge and then they were satisfied.

After everyone dispersed, Du Heng was still busy in the kitchen. When Xuan Yu saw him soaking various beans, he asked, "What are you doing?" Du Heng said, "Make some salty porridge tomorrow, soak the ingredients first." Du Heng kept his hands and feet. After soaking the beans, he also marinated some ribs. After preparing the things, he destroyed the night pearl in the kitchen.

After working all day, Du Heng went to take a bath. Their bathhouse was in the small house behind the living room. Xuan Yu set up a barrier in the house, imitating Feng Gui's hot springs. However, this hot spring is not as big as Feng Gui's home, and Du Heng would not be covered by water on his head.

Du Heng came out of the bathhouse and was rubbing his hair. He saw light in the living room. Following the light, Du Heng found that it was the light in Xuan Yu's room. Xuan Yu lived on the first floor, just below Du Heng's room.

When Du Heng walked over, he saw Xuan Yu sitting cross-legged on the ground, his eyes were empty and meditating. Seeing Xuan Yu like this, Du Heng suddenly remembered his dereliction of duty.

He said he wanted to make a bed for Xuan Yu, but he actually forgot! Look at his memory!

When Xuan Yu opened his eyes, he saw Du Heng holding a wooden talisman in his hand. Xuan Yu asked in confusion: "What are you doing?"

Du Heng said guiltily: "I made a bed for you. I promised to make a bed for you before, so I won't let you sleep on the ground in the future. So are you, why don't you remind me?"

Du Heng was nagging, and a light of inspiration appeared in his hand. The wooden talisman turned into a gorgeous big bed, which was bigger than Du Heng's big bed! Du Heng was very satisfied. After his cultivation level was higher, the bed made was more suitable for his heart! Look, this is a very standard modern style big bed!

Du Heng sat on the bed board: "The mattress is still missing." Can this stump Du Heng? If you can't turn into a modern mattress, can't you find a bedding? Xuan Yuke bought him a cabinet!

Du Heng went upstairs, then quickly carried a few quilts and put them on Xuan Yu's covers. After they were all covered, Du Heng sat up with satisfaction: "Yeah, that's all! Xuan Yu quickly come up and try it!"

Xuan Yu then got up from the ground. He hesitated and looked at the bed, then stood beside the bed. Du Heng pulled him enthusiastically: "What are you doing while standing? Try to be comfortable or not. This is the first bed I have made."

Xuan Yu sat carefully beside Du Heng. With a click, Du Heng's body slanted and fell towards Xuan Yu. Who could believe it? Xuan Yu actually sat on the bed with his butt!

Du Heng was a little confused: "Why? Shouldn't it?" He looked up and down at Xuan Yu. Is Xuan Yu so heavy? He could actually sit on the rifting bar?

Xuan Yu said depressedly: "Maybe the wood made from the wood talisman cannot carry my spiritual energy." Du Heng wondered: "Is the wood transformed from the wood talisman not wood? Is there any difference?"

Xuan Yu said: "Everything cannot be made out of nothing. A wooden talisman is not a storage bag, so it cannot be taken out of the storage of the wood directly. The wood drawn out of the wooden talisman is all wood made of wood spiritual energy in the air collected by the talisman. There is no problem when burning or making artifacts, but if you want to use it as a weapon to fight against other spiritual energy, it depends on the practice of the performer."

Xuan Yu said: "To a certain extent, I am a demon cultivator. My demonic energy can disperse the five elements spiritual energy that is not condensed enough. I usually use the objects in the kitchen, but when I enter into a state of meditation, I have to communicate with the energy of heaven and earth, and the bed cannot withstand the impact of my spiritual energy." Du Heng's face suddenly turned red. It turned out that he was not good at learning skills!

He had a question: "Then why is it okay for you to fall asleep on my bed?" Xuan Yu said: "Your bed was given by Xiaoxiao. It was made by Jinwumu. Fenggui founded a skilled craftsman in the demon world. There was a formation on it, so he could naturally withstand the impact of my demonic power."

Du Heng's old face turned red: "Then... let's change the beds of our two?" Xuan Yu shook his head and smiled: "That was given to you by Xiaoxiao. If you give it to me, he will be angry when he knows."

Du Heng looked at the broken bed and said, "Why don't you go to the town to buy one tomorrow?" Xuan Yu said, "The ox cart has been destroyed and has not been repaired yet, and it's a bit messy outside recently, so don't go out."

Xuan Yu said calmly: "Don't worry about me. I'm used to it. It's okay. Go back and rest quickly." Du Heng touched Xuan Yu's hand. Xuan Yu, who was still warm during the day, was now like ice again.

Du Heng made a promise: "So, you sleep with me! Anyway, we are all big men, and the two of us are still warm when we sleep. Besides, there is Xiaoxiao, let's sleep together. You can't show off any more. Look at your hands, like ice. When you are young, you will suffer when you are old. Let's go, don't sit on the ground."

Du Heng was afraid that Xuan Yu would postpone it, so he grabbed Xuan Yu's claws and walked towards the formation leading to the second floor: "It's true that such a big person doesn't know how to take care of himself at all."

If Du Heng looked back at this moment, he would definitely see Xuan Yu's eyes that were brighter than Ye Mingzhu and the smile that was successful in the corner of his mouth.

The author has something to say: Du Heng: Let me tell you, Xuan Yu’s body is not good.

Jing Nan:??Xuan Yu can't do it??

Du Heng: It’s cold and ice at night! What’s the point when you’re old? Jing Nan helps prescribe some medicines to make up for him.

Jing Nan: I'm afraid I can't stand it if I make up too much bed.
