Chapter 20 Bai Keke, come here
"Cook a toad for you to eat." Huo Manshu fiddled with the big pot without raising her head.
"Hey, that's a lie." Bai Keke obviously didn't believe it.
"You know it's a lie, but you still ask." Huo Manshu responded casually, walked around the cauldron twice, and frowned.
Bai Keke was choked by Huo Manshu's straightforward words, and couldn't hold back a word of retort for a long time.
I can only change the subject: "Now do you think there is anything wrong with this pot?"
She knew that the pot belonged to Xin Le, and she was also present when Huo Manshu put away the pot.
Huo Manshu shook his head: "There is nothing wrong with the pot, it's just..."
Looking up at Bai Keke who was looking forward to her next step with curiosity, Huo Manshu relaxed her brows and said calmly: "Is your talent for fire?"
Bai Keke shook his head, "I am water."
She is also of elemental nature and is water-based.
Huo Manshu paused and said strangely: "Water is also an attack skill, right? Why did you just stay motionless and let Song Xiaoshuang swallow you up?"
She thought that Bai Ke had the same useless skills as hers, so she couldn't break free, but as for the water attribute, it shouldn't be a weak attribute.
"Um, didn't people forget it when they panicked?" Bai Keke crossed her fingers in embarrassment.
Originally, she was just an ordinary person. When encountering danger, her mind went blank and her skills were all forgotten.
Huo Manshu blinked, what could she say?
He rubbed the edge of the pot twice with his fingers and said in a regretful voice, "It seems that this pot can no longer be used."
"Why?" Mu Qing and Bai Keke said in unison, with perfect understanding.
Huo Manshu looked at the two of them strangely, "If you use a pot, you need fire." This should be a matter of course.
Mu Qing and Bai Keke were embarrassed and wanted to find a hole to crawl into. In fact, they just followed Huo Manshu's words subconsciously and did not expect such a reason at all.
"I have a fire charm."
In order to ease the embarrassment, Mu Qing took out a piece of talisman paper from her pocket.
Huo Manshu looked at her, and Mu Qing explained naturally: "I got it from doing the task."
She left the classroom after Homanshu. Like Homanshu, she also noticed the exchange and found the mission location. However, her mission was different from Homanshu's, and the rewards she received were also different.
"The description of the item says it can ignite fire."
Mu Qing sighed helplessly. At first, she thought that this useless thing would not come in handy.
"Well, it turns out that you also went on a mission." There was surprise in Huo Manshu's tone, and then she said with interest: "Then did you two get Malgen and Butterfly?"
This is the main ingredient in an exorcism potion she wants to refine, and it will work wonders when combined with her deer grass.
As expected, Mu Qing and Bai Keke shook their heads.
Mu Qing only completed one mission and only got a fire talisman, while Bai Keke went out relatively late and had not yet encountered the mission site and had nothing.
"That's okay, just make some deer grass soup."
She didn't expect much at first. After confirming that the two people had nothing, Huo Manshu prepared wholeheartedly to make deer grass soup.
After asking Mu Qing to move a few pieces of broken bed wood and put them under the pot, Huo Manshu picked up the fire talisman.
As soon as the mental power was activated, the fire talisman began to burst into flames.
Just as Huo Manshu was about to put the flame under the pot, Xiao Shi suddenly stretched out his long tongue and flicked out the fire.
Ho Manshu, "??"
She stared at Xiaoshi in confusion. Xiaoshi looked at her nose, nose and heart, but didn't look at her at all. Huo Manshu tentatively lit the fire talisman again, and sure enough, Xiao Shi immediately put out the fire again.
"Snacks?"
Huo Manshu stopped and looked straight at the scavenging toad.
The scavenger toad pretended not to hear it at first, but after a while it couldn't help but croaked in aggrieved tone: "Master, toad meat is not delicious. I grew up eating scavengers."
It still remembered what Homanshu and Bai Keke said just now about making soup for it.
Huo Manshu suddenly realized that it was because of this joke that she didn't expect to hurt the child's heart.
She reached out and patted Xiaoshi's strong forelimbs comfortingly: "Don't worry, I won't cook you."
After saying that, the topic changed and his tone was gloomy: "If you put out my fire again, there is no guarantee."
Xiaoshi's huge body trembled, and he quickly promised that it wouldn't happen again.
The fire started, and soon the pot was burning red. At this time, Huo Manshu remembered that even if she was making deer grass soup, one thing was missing. She didn't have holy water.
She raised her head and looked at Bai Keke, who was stunned by the sight.
Bai Keke felt uncomfortable: "Huo Manshu, if you have anything to say, just say it."
"Put some holy water in the pot."
What Huo Manshu said was so natural that Bai Keke subconsciously wanted to do it, but when he was about to use the skill, he realized that what Huo Manshu wanted was holy water.
She retracted her hand with a sullen expression: "Where can I find holy water for you?" Maybe she will be able to conjure holy water when she becomes stronger in the future, but where can she, a weakling like her, get holy water now?
"Then just be ordinary."
Huo Manshu is a Buddhist, "Try the effect first."
After putting all the water and deer grass into the pot, Huo Manshu used her diamond-encrusted magic wand as a spoon to stir it in without hesitation.
This free and easy look made the eyes of the two people next to him twitch.
"Huo Manshu, you seem to know this world very well."
Seeing Huo Manshu stirring in an orderly manner, Mu Qing only hesitated for a moment before asking her most curious question.
Huo Manshu was calm from beginning to end and knew a lot of things they didn't know. She really had reason to doubt Huo Manshu.
"It doesn't count as understanding. Don't you all have illustrated books? These things are written in the illustrated books."
Even when questioned, Huo Manshu did not lose her temper. Instead, she honestly told Mu Qing and the others about the illustrated book.
Mu Qing looked at her illustrated book, which was only half as thick as Homanshu's illustrated book, and did not ask any further questions. This was the gaming world's preference for Homanshu.
Not to mention Bai Keke, her illustrated book is pitifully thin.
Mu Qing and Bai Keke once again closed their mouths in tacit agreement and watched quietly as Huo Manshu prepared the dark dishes.
The more Bai Keke thought about it as she sat there, the angrier she became. She complained in a low voice: "This game is too unfair. You two are so excellent. Why did Song Xiaoshuang come to me first?"
After hearing this, Huo Manshu raised her eyes and glanced at Bai Keke, and said bluntly: "You also said it, because we are both excellent, and naturally we have to pick the weak ones."
Although this was said, Huo Manshu had another guess in his mind, maybe it was because Bai Keke secretly scolded her in her heart for being unlucky.
Bai Keke rolled her eyes and completely fell silent. Talking to Huo Manshu could make people angry to death.
After a while, Homanshu's dark deer grass soup was boiled, bubbling and emitting an unpleasant smell.
Huo Manshu stopped what she was doing, looked up at Bai Keke, and hooked her fingers, "Bai Keke, come here."
