About half an hour later, Zhao Qiu and Wang Huang returned from afar.

They picked up a pile of firewood and caught six white fish.
The six white fish were caught by Wang Huang when he went out to collect firewood. He was a water ghost and was much more flexible in the water than on land. Out of professional habit, he wanted to go down when he saw water.
So he jumped into the pool and swam in it. When he saw a few white fish at the bottom of the lake, he caught them.
Zhang Mo had more than 80 food pills on her body, which was enough for the group to solve the food problem.
However, food pills can only replenish energy and fill the stomach, but it is difficult to solve the desire for food.
As the two returned, there was enough firewood. Wang Huang put the six fish on the ground and sat on it, shouting that he was exhausted. He asked Li Changxiao for a drink to dispel the coldness on his body.
The six fish were full of energy. They left the pool and were still twisting on the ground. Zhao Qiu and Wang Huang began to wonder whether the fish could be eaten and whether they were poisonous.
The two asked Zhang Mo for her opinion. Zhang Mo was experienced and she thought the fish was not poisonous, but she was not 100% sure.
Then she looked at Li Changxiao.
Li Changxiao's eyes were also attracted by the fish. He grabbed a fish and observed it carefully.
The fish was snow-white and exuded a faint fragrance.
After looking at it for a while, he couldn't help but exclaimed.
If he was right, this should be the top ingredient of Fuyao Tianxia: Yanqiao fish.
The human race in Fuyao Tianxia has always been very particular about food.
There is also a list of delicacies from the mountains and the sea. The first one is the colorful neon chicken. This kind of chicken does not need special cooking. It is already a delicacy in the world just by cooking it.
Anyone who eats it will remember it for a lifetime. It is a joy and satisfaction that goes straight into the soul.
There was a great man who was obsessed with the colorful neon chicken. After eating it, the spiritual energy in his body surged, his mind was satisfied, and his cultivation was further improved on the spot.
The second one is the centipede with centipedes. It is very fragrant when soaked in wine or roasted. However, this ingredient is too rare and rare. It was once believed to exist only in legends.
As for this rock fish, it ranks 89th on the list of delicacies from the mountains and the sea. The meat is as white as snow and melts in the mouth.
However, most of the ingredients on the list of delicacies from the mountains and the sea have been lost. It is a great luck to encounter the rock fish here. It is a pleasant surprise.
When encountering this top-level ingredient, Li Changxiao naturally took action himself. He couldn't just watch them waste this once-in-a-century ingredient.
It is said that once this fish is cooked, the fragrance will spread for a hundred miles, and he has always wanted to taste it.
He seemed to have planted a dream before, wanting to taste the colorful neon chicken that ranked first on the list of delicacies.
Now it seems that this dream is unlikely to succeed. The ingredients in the top 50 of the list of delicacies are almost extinct, not to mention the existence of the top 30.
It is difficult for the top masters to taste it.
Even when the spiritual energy is at its peak, it is extremely rare.
Although the rock hole fish is delicious, the method is also extremely complicated. Simple baking is difficult to bring out the delicious taste of this ingredient, which is suspected of wasting heaven's resources.
It needs certain ingredients to complement it.
Li Changxiao rolled up his sleeves. Facing this matter, he was serious and put in all his energy.
He first poured the strong liquor into the ceramic bowl, pressed the head of the rock hole fish, and forced the six fish to drink.
After the fish got drunk, he took out a sharp knife from the ring, cut the fish open along the abdomen, and removed the internal organs.
His movements were quick and neat.
Even the fish hadn't reacted yet.
The three people looked at Li Changxiao's skilled technique, and felt a sense of pleasure.
It seemed that just watching was a visual and spiritual enjoyment.
This was not over yet.
Li Changxiao took out three pieces of ginger from his arms. In fact, he took them out from the dream space, but it looked like he took them out from his arms.
The full name of these three pieces of ginger is "King Ginger". They are large in size, strong in medicinal effect, and strong in flavor. If they are cooked with ingredients, the strong spicy taste will cover the taste of the ingredients themselves.
But at this moment, it is perfect to use it to stimulate the hidden freshness of the rock fish.
He chopped the ginger, squeezed out the ginger juice, and applied it on the rock fish.
Remove the fishy smell and stimulate the freshness.
This step should be done before removing the fish scales, because the king ginger is too powerful and needs to be partially isolated by the fish scales.
Then, Li Changxiao quickly slapped the fish body, and through external force, the fish meat had a richer taste, and the medicinal power of the king ginger penetrated into the fish meat through the gaps between the fish scales.
This was just the beginning. Next, Li Changxiao used a knife to cut a few cuts on the fish body, and then picked out the scales one by one.
He asked Wang Huang to go to the vicinity and catch a few poisonous scorpions. A few hundred meters west, there should be a lot of scorpions in the gaps between the ruins and stones.
He turned around and asked Zhao Qiu to find some grass, some herbs that can stimulate the smell of fish. If he guessed correctly, there should be a medicinal garden nearby, where they can be found.
Then he looked at Zhang Mo, and Zhang Mo puffed out her chest, saying that she should not underestimate herself, and she would arrange tasks if there were any.
Li Changxiao asked her to dig some soil from the ground, which was dark blue in color. This kind of soil had no earthy smell and could neutralize firepower.
Zhang Mo received the order and did not hesitate. She came to a piece of land, and her internal force surged.
She stepped hard and the ground collapsed with a huge noise.
Zhang Mo has improved her martial arts skills over the years, and her strength also represents the limit of the current Tongqiaodao warriors.
In a short while.
The three completed the task.
Zhao Qing found a spiritual medicine field, which contained the necessary herbs, including fish herb, rehmannia, ginger, mulberry chrysanthemum leaves, sour incense roots, and the most important one, ice and fire wood.
Wang Huang caught more than a dozen earth scorpions, some large and some small, and the color was light black.
Zhang Mo also found the dark blue soil, and looked at Li Changxiao's next move with expectation.
Li Changxiao's mouth corners raised slightly, as he expected, this rock hole fish was raised by the ancestors for enjoyment, so there must be corresponding ingredients nearby.
He put the herbs in the pot and stewed them first. After half-cooked, he mixed them with the rock hole fish and wrapped them in the fish's belly.
Then he cut the ice and fire wood into pieces and held them in the fish's mouth.
Then, he completely wrapped the fish with dark blue soil and grilled it in the fire.
When the ice, fire and wood are heated, they will gradually emit icy air. In this way, when the outside is cold and the inside is hot, the flavor of the grass will spread from the inside to the outside, and the taste will be more elastic.
"It's amazing."
Zhao Qiu's eyes lit up slightly.
Although she didn't understand, she felt that it must be amazing.
While the rock fish was being roasted, Li Changxiao began to deal with another ingredient.
Those poisonous earth scorpions.
It was not difficult to deal with the earth scorpions. The first step was naturally to cut off the tail with poison.
Then remove the head and the internal organs.
Then take a large pottery jar, throw the earth scorpions in, fill it with water, and then pour some cooking wine to rinse it.
Take out the earth scorpions, pour out the water in the pottery jar, and fill it with water again.
Then put the earth scorpions in. At this time, the rock fish was almost roasted. He took it out of the match pile, pried open the green mud, and revealed the fish meat inside.
Suddenly, a fresh fragrance came to his nose.
The three of them were already salivating.
Li Changxiao put the roasted fish into the pottery one by one and cooked them with the scorpion.
Half an hour later.
The fresh soup of Yanqiao was ready.
The moment the lid was opened, a long-brewing fresh aroma wafted out.
Zhao Qiu took a piece of fish and put it into his mouth. The smooth and layered fish meat filled his mouth with natural freshness.
Li Changxiao also tried a bite, chewed slowly, his eyes slightly bright, the Yanqiao fish was indeed delicious, but he felt that he had not fully stimulated the deliciousness of the Yanqiao fish.
This was a bit of a pity.
Even so, the taste still made him linger.
He drank another mouthful of the hot clear soup, and his whole body was bathed in the warm current, warm and satisfied from the heart.
