Chapter 1008 - Like to Eat Salty

Xia Xibei stopped and looked at him in surprise, ‘The fruit of the green crystal bamboo?”

“Yes!” Qi Zhilan nodded. “How do we eat it to achieve the best results?”

In fact, he only asked casually.

Was there another way to eat the green crystal bamboo’s fruit other than directly?

Anyway, he was grown up, and the family elders had lived for many years too, but they’d never tried other ways to eat those fruits.

Moreover, the effect would easily dissipate if the fruit was cut open.

He just didn’t expect Xia Xibei to frown and think for a while.

“If you want to achieve the best effect, soak it in saltwater for an hour before eating it. Use a 10 to one ratio, I think.”

“Saltwater?” Qi Zhilan stared wide-eyed, thinking he had heard wrong.

The bone lotus liked sweet and the green crystal bamboo liked salty?

What the- Were all these spiritual plants so individualistic?

Did some plants like spicy things? And some plants preferred aa bitter taste? Qi Zhi’an felt like he had opened the door to a new world!

Xia Xibei nodded, “Yes, saltwater. After soaking it in saltwater, freeze it for two hours, take it out and let it defrost, and then you can eat it.”

The corners of Qi Zhi’an’s mouth twitched.

These practices… It felt like they were cooking some kind of food!

First freeze and then melt! This tactic was simply divine!

“Is this… Really okay?” “The effect will be twice as good as just eating it straight.”

Xia Xibei’s statement made Qi Zhi’an draw a breath backward.

Twice as much? Was she kidding?

If it was double, then it was like eating two fruits!

Thinking about it made him feel a little excited.

He couldn’t wait to do it right away. However, the fruit hadn’t been born yet.

“Okay, I’ll try it out!” Qi Zhi’an nodded seriously.

Xia Xibei’s performance today had managed to showcase her unbelievable strength.

If not for her, things wouldn’t have gone so smoothly.

Therefore, her words needed to be listened to.

“I wanted to ask, is your family…”

“We are not a dynasty of any kind,” Xia Xibei shook her head. “Just an ordinary family.”

Although the Xia family was affluent, it was much less powerful than a behemoth like the Qi family.

“Okay.”

Qi Zhi’an did not pursue the question.

Xia Xibei’s ability was too rare!

If it was anyone else, they might have chosen to recruit Xia Xibei to their staff, or else they would have chosen to destroy her.

However, Qi Zhi’an was not this kind of person.

Xia Xibei had helped him, and her strength was unbelievable. Of course she should be treated well!

“Well, we have to go back. It’s time to eat.”

Xia Xibei touched her stomach, a little hungry.

Hearing her say that, Qi Zhi’an couldn’t delay her.

Before she left, Xia Xibei went to the water vat, reached out and touched the bone lotus, which was already bare, with only its branches left, and channeled a little spiritual energy.

Soon, the bone lotus sent back a little spiritual energy, which was much purer than before.

Xia Xibei couldn’t help but smile.

That was why she preferred to interact with plants and animals! They were so cute!

Qi Zhi’an watched Xia Xibei’s movements, silent.

When they left, he called his assistant and asked them to prepare a big meal and send it to Elder Huo’s courtyard.

Just after they returned to the courtyard, they stopped in their tracks.

Huo Zijun’s face darkened, and his eyes glared deeply at

the father and son who appeared.

“Dad!”

“Grandpa!”

Seeing that the old man had returned, Huo Zhan and Huo Zifeng immediately greeted him, smiling brightly.
