Chapter 76: Barbecuing Wind Eagle Meat
Chapter 76: Barbecuing Wind Eagle Meat
Hearing the final sound come from the radio, Zhou Yu couldn’t help but smile and shake his head. This Senior of his was actually just a fake. If some major disaster really happened, he probably wouldn’t be able to help much, because the two worlds were not truly connected now.
However, he wasn’t completely unable to help. At the very least, he could make use of the radio’s ability to take some things from enemies.
After turning off the radio, Zhou Yu looked at the half body of Wind Eagle Meat and felt a headache coming. He estimated this meat weighed at least a hundred pounds.
Just as he was considering how to handle the Wind Eagle Meat, Huzi, Dabao, and Xiaobao, who had been sleeping in the courtyard, suddenly rushed in. Their eyes fixed tightly on the Wind Eagle Meat, and they gave Zhou Yu soft barks.
Seeing Huzi, Dabao, and Xiaobao’s behavior, Zhou Yu’s eyes lit up. This Wind Eagle Meat really seemed extraordinary to have attracted them like this. From their eyes, he could tell that if he weren’t here, they would have probably pounced on the meat already.
“Go back to sleep first. I’ll let you have some tomorrow morning,” Zhou Yu thought for a moment. Since it was already so late today, he would figure out how to handle it tomorrow.
Hearing Zhou Yu’s words, Huzi, Dabao, and Xiaobao looked at the Wind Eagle Meat again, their faces full of reluctance. They walked slowly toward the courtyard, turning their heads back to look from time to time.
“Hurry up. I’ll definitely let you eat it tomorrow,” Seeing the three dogs taking one step and looking back three times, Zhou Yu couldn’t help but laugh. He patted their heads as he spoke.
Only then did Huzi, Dabao, and Xiaobao relax and return to the courtyard. When the house was being repaired earlier, Zhou Yu had the workers build a few small wooden huts in the courtyard to serve as living quarters for Huzi and the others.
Turning back, Zhou Yu looked at the Wind Eagle Meat. He tried lifting it and found, just as he had guessed, it was over a hundred pounds. The meat on the wings was the least; most of it was on the half body.
He moved the Wind Eagle Meat onto a table and then completely covered it with a sunshade cloth, planning to deal with it tomorrow. Truth be told, he was just like Huzi, Dabao, and Xiaobao—he couldn’t help but want to taste the Wind Eagle Meat. After all, it was a product from the Immortal World.
After that, Zhou Yu tightly closed the living room door to prevent any other unknown animals from being attracted by the Wind Eagle Meat and breaking in.
Carrying the radio, he returned to his room. His gaze fell on the two beehives. They didn’t have any patterns carved on them; they looked like two ordinary beehives.
Zhou Yu brought his ear close to the beehives and heard the sound of bees flapping their wings inside. A smile spread across his face. He gently placed the two beehives on the table, planning to take them out for a test tomorrow.
Lying in bed, he looked at the radio on the table, feeling a wave of emotion inside. Today’s gains could be said to be enormous.
Two boxes of Divine Chef Villa’s Spirit Bees might allow him to taste a different kind of honey. And then there was the half body of Wind Eagle Meat. Although he didn’t know what benefits eating it would bring, judging from Song Qingxiu’s pained reaction, it definitely held great advantages.
At the same time, he had also helped Uncle-Master Wu resolve a major trouble. He made the Xuantian Sect’s Sect Leader and numerous Elders fear his unpredictable and elusive power, not daring to make any reckless moves. In the end, they decided to let Uncle-Master Wu continue to manage the Spirit Herb Garden and let him take things freely.
After this incident, Uncle-Master Wu’s position within the Xuantian Sect was probably unshakable, because many people would know that behind him stood a Senior with unfathomable power, even if he was just a fake one.
Turning off the light and lying in bed, Zhou Yu wore a smile as he slowly drifted into sleep, his mind thinking about what benefits the Spirit Bees and Wind Eagle Meat might bring him.
Early the next morning, he got up, opened the living room door, and directly saw Huzi, Dabao, and Xiaobao already waiting at the doorway.
The three dogs were squatting on the ground one by one, raising their heads to look at him with longing eyes.
Seeing this, Zhou Yu burst out laughing. “You guys, is that Wind Eagle Meat really that attractive?” Even the Spirit Beast Pills they ate before hadn’t made them this impatient.
“Woof, woof.” Huzi, Dabao, and Xiaobao let out soft barks without hesitation, their eyes constantly peering inside the door.
Zhou Yu shook his head. “Alright, since you want to eat it so much, I won’t exercise this morning either. Let’s grill some Wind Eagle Meat first to taste it.” Looking at Huzi and the others, he couldn’t hold back his own curiosity either.
After that, he brought a basin and a kitchen knife from the kitchen to the living room. He lifted the sunshade cloth covering the Wind Eagle Meat.
At that moment, Huzi, Dabao, and Xiaobao followed him in, looking at the Wind Eagle Meat on the table. They were practically drooling.
This half body of Wind Eagle Meat had been processed. The feathers and internal organs were gone, but the bones were still inside.
Based on his guess, this Wind Eagle Meat was definitely much better than Spirit Beast Pills, because the low-grade Spirit Beast Pills might only contain a little bit of something from a Spirit Beast, whereas now, this was actual Spirit Beast Meat.
Zhou Yu picked up the kitchen knife and began cutting meat from the half body of the Wind Roc. His newly bought sharp kitchen knife met some resistance while cutting; it wasn’t completely smooth.
After some effort, he finally cut off a piece of meat and placed it in the basin. By then, Huzi and the others were already sticking out their tongues, looking like they wanted to eat.
Next, he cut another piece from the Wind Eagle Meat. After washing it, he cut it into smaller pieces in the kitchen and skewered them on bamboo sticks, making ten skewers of Wind Eagle Meat.
“Alright, little ones, let’s go grill some Spirit Beast Meat in the courtyard.” After skewering all the meat, Zhou Yu picked up the seasonings and announced with a wave of his hand.
Hearing Zhou Yu’s words, Huzi, Dabao, and Xiaobao, who were standing nearby, could no longer restrain themselves and dashed toward the courtyard.
Arriving in the courtyard, Zhou Yu moved the Barbecue Grill to a spot where he could see the sea. He placed charcoal inside and waited until the charcoal was almost fully lit. Then, he brushed oil onto the ten skewers of Wind Eagle Meat, placed them on the grill, and began barbecuing.
Before long, a rich, savory aroma wafted from the Barbecue Grill. Smelling this fragrance, Huzi, Dabao, and Xiaobao nearby couldn’t help but bark several times, circling around the grill continuously.
Zhou Yu also took a deep breath of the aroma, a look of pleasant surprise appearing on his face. This Wind Eagle Meat was truly different.
The time needed to barbecue the Wind Eagle Meat was longer compared to grilling fish, but the fragrance it released surpassed that of the fish or other things he had grilled before. Just smelling it made one’s mouth water.
Zhou Yu flipped the skewers while brushing them with oil, applying some specially made sauce by Li Guomin. When the Wind Eagle Meat reached about ninety percent cooked, he seasoned them one by one with spice powders: chili powder, cumin, and most importantly, Immortal Flavor Fruit Powder.
