After the two complimented each other back and forth, Ye Xi finally got to the point.

"Actually, I came here this time because there is a lack of seasoning for making tea eggs."

"I call it Fragrant Leaf. It is made from dried laurel leaves. These days, people have not been able to find this kind of leaves. However, today I heard that Suifu seems to have a different tree with leaves similar to it. It’s close, so I took the liberty to visit.”

Suifu suddenly said: "I heard about the tea eggs, and my father is also very interested in it, and I have always wanted to try it, so I will fully cooperate with you if you need it, but... what does the leaf look like?" ?”

Ye Xi looked at the small bluestone pond.

The bluestone for this small pool was polished very flat, and the area was large enough to be borrowed.

So he said to Suifu: "It's not clear enough to say, can I use these bluestones to draw a picture?"

Thinking of the rumors of Ye Xi's painting skills circulating in the Jiuyi tribe, Suifu's eyes showed anticipation: "Of course."

Ye Xi came prepared this time. After getting permission from his father, he immediately took out the charcoal pencil he had sharpened earlier, and then drew on the bluestone. Not only did he draw the appearance of the laurel tree, but he also drew close-ups of the leaves and flowers.

Ye Xi put down the charcoal pencil and said, "A laurel tree probably looks like this."

Sui father looked at the painting in amazement: "It's amazing!"

As he said that, he took a closer look at Ye Xi's painting, then picked up the charcoal pencil that Ye Xi had put aside, and started drawing on the side according to the close-up of the leaf.

A similar sketch of a leaf gradually emerges under charcoal.

Ye Xi was slightly moved, and looked at his father's focused profile in shock.

How come... this Suifu doesn't look like a primitive man from a primitive tribe! Seeing that he can almost draw it after just one painting, isn't it too heaven-defying? !

After drawing the leaves with his father, he put down the charcoal pencil and said with a smile, "Let's go, I know which strange tree you are talking about."

He took Ye Xi up the mountain, and after walking for about half a kilometer, he looked at the five-meter-tall giant laurel tree in front of him, exuding a faint fragrance, and asked, "Is that it?"

Ye Xi's eyes lit up: "That's right, this is the laurel tree I'm looking for.

I just didn't expect the laurel trees here to be so tall. "

Comparing with his father's hands: "When I found it, it was only this small, about the same height as my own, and it has only grown taller these years."

"By the way, its flowers and leaves have a refreshing effect. Even if you are sleepy, eating a little will immediately restore your spirits, so it's best not to use them to cook at night."

Ye Xi suddenly felt ashamed.

Among the substitutes that the Jiuyi Tribe found this time, several are also heterogeneous, and they are all very precious. However, because of the difficulty of cooking ferocious eggs, the eggs in the tea eggs must be ordinary eggs... So after spending so much time and using such precious ingredients, the pot of ordinary eggs was boiled.

Thinking about it this way, why does it feel so wasteful, so stupid?

But soon Ye Xi convinced himself that he was just providing a method, and whether it was worth it all depended on the Jiuyi tribe.

Follow my father to the giant laurel tree.

At the corner of the tree, a baby bird just fell out of the nest, and the father naturally picked up the baby bird and sent it back to the nest, and handily broke a large laurel branch beside the bird's nest for Ye Xi.

Suifu: "Is it all found now?"

Ye Xi said truthfully: "There is still an ingredient called star anise."

Suifu: "Why don't you draw its appearance, maybe I've seen it before."

Ye Xi nodded, and followed his father back to the small bluestone pond, and carefully drew the appearance of the star anise tree.

Seeing the appearance of the octagonal tree with his father, he fell into deep thought, quickly searched his memory, and after a while his eyes lit up: "Ah, I see, I have seen it near the Great Rift Pond."

"Big Rift?" Ye Xi frowned slightly, "Is it in such a dangerous place?"

Daxiepo is the name given by the tribesmen of Jiuyi. It is a relatively famous place. The waterboa looks like a hideous crack when viewed from the sky. Although the area is not particularly large, there are many strange water monsters and poisonous insects inside. , people are hard to guard against, even if they are as strong as Jiuyi people, they don't like to go there.

Suifu: "I will definitely bring the octagonal tree as soon as possible."

Ye Xi thought that his father was an eighth-level fighter, so he didn't persuade him. He just thanked him and promised: "When the tea eggs are cooked, I will send a copy."

Suifu smiled softly: "No need, just give it to my father."

Ye Xi thought he was being polite.

Seeing Ye Xi's thoughts, Suifu explained seriously that he really doesn't like food like his clansmen, that is, he doesn't pay attention to appetite. Moreover, he only wants to eat vegetarian food, and eggs are not in his diet. The reason why he is so active in helping Ye Xi find them is purely to satisfy the chief of Jiuyi, that is, his father's good fortune.

Ye Xi was a little dazed.

He had never seen Suifu getting along with the chief of Jiuyi, but just the few words he heard in the tribe, and Suifu's filial piety to the chief of Jiuyi, was already a unique way of getting along in the primitive tribe.

The more common ones are the subordinate sons like Penyu who don't even call him father, don't see any intimacy at all, and usually only call him the chief.

What's even more rare about following his father is that he has no utilitarian idea of ​​being good to Chief Jiuyi, but just a pure heart, wanting to be as good as possible to him.

Ye Xi sighed.

No wonder Chief Jiuyi loves Suifu so much. If he grows old in the future, with such a son who misses him, he would like to leave all the good things to him!

It's just a pity that a son who is as powerful and filial as his father has a fatal flaw.

He couldn't help reminding: "You saved that baby bird, but it doesn't know how many bugs it will eat in the future. If it grows bigger, small animals such as squirrels will also be within its predation range. On the other hand, if you kill a carnivorous beast, it is equivalent to saving countless animals that would have died in its mouth."

Suifu was stunned, and looked at Ye Xi in shock.

He smiled for a while: "No one has ever said that to me before."

Ye Xi stopped being a fuss, and said goodbye to him with a smile: "Then I'll go back and wait for your star anise tree."

...

A few days later, the fruit wine was finally brewed, and as soon as it was opened, countless people from Jiuyi were attracted.

Everyone partyed all night to celebrate the wine.

A few days later, my father came back with the star anise tree, so all the ingredients needed for the tea eggs were ready. But brewing soy sauce takes a long time, it will take several months to make it, and the day of the great sacrifice is coming, Ye Xi has to rush back to preside over the great sacrifice.

After he taught Lao Yan the follow-up method of brewing soy sauce and the method of boiling tea eggs, he decided to return to Xicheng.

Jiuyi tribe, a generous tribe, wanted to send him a lot of good things to thank Ye Xi, but Ye Xi refused them all, except for one thing that Ye Xi couldn't refuse, and that was seeds.

He carefully selected several seeds of different plants, and after bidding farewell to Jiuyi Yuanwu and Jiuyi chief, he took the colorful feather bird dragon on his way back.
