Ah Hua Asks for Help

Sang Jiu looked carefully and found that it was really Ah Hua.

　　"Ahua?" She quickly ran towards Ahua and found that the person she was supporting was her brother. Both of them were beaten black and blue, especially her brother who was covered in blood and looked more seriously injured.

　　She hurried over to help, only to find that Ah shu had almost his entire body pressed on Ah hua, and he was almost unconscious.

　　So serious?

　　She quickly helped carry Ah Shu into the courtyard and put him under the bamboo shed: "How did you get so badly injured?"

　　"Woo woo🥺, they stole our water spinach, took away all our water and food, and falsely accused my brother and me of stealing. They also said they would beat us to death next time and throw us outside the safe zone to be dried into jerky." Ah Hua, who was already exhausted, collapsed on the ground, crying breathlessly.

　　She didn't dare cry in the safe zone, and she endured it all the time to escape to Sang Jiu's place. When she got to the safe place, she burst into tears all at once, "That was our food, they rushed over to snatch it away, and also smashed our house. Woo woo woo, we don't have a home anymore…"😭

　　Sang Jiu learned from Ah Hua's intermittent words that in the afternoon, while everyone was catching up on sleep, they secretly took the newly sprouted water spinach to a place with light to carry out photosynthesis. Soon after they returned to the house, they were broken into by a group of people.

　　Not only did they steal their water spinach, they also took away their food and water, and forced them to tell where the clean water came from.

　　They were afraid of bringing trouble to her, so they just said they found it in the wilderness and refused to reveal the specific location. Li Long and his men didn't believe them and started fighting, and even wrongly accused her of stealing it. When the brother fought back, he was beaten even worse.

　　Without food, her brother was severely beaten and Li Long did not allow doctors to treat his brother's injuries. Seeing that her brother had a fever, Ahua had no choice but to take her brother to ask Sang Jiu for help.

　　"Sang Jiu, I don't know who can help me, I can only come to you. Can you save my brother? He is my only brother." Ahua's parents died seven years ago. It was her brother who worked hard to raise her. They have been dependent on each other. She really can't live without her brother.

　　"Don't cry, let me take a look." Sang Jiu fetched a basin of well water and first helped Ah Shu wipe the blood off his face and body, then checked him. He was still breathing, but there were bruises on his body, a dislocated arm, broken ribs and knees, and serious internal injuries.

"It's broken, and the leg that didn't fully heal before is injured again."

　　"Brother was just trying to protect me." At that time, brother had been protecting Ah Hua, so he was injured so badly. "Sang Jiu, will brother die?"

　　Sang Jiu looked at Ah Hua's red and swollen eyes and said, "No."

　　"Really?" After Ah Hua's parents were injured, her brother also said that they would not die, but they still died.

　　"Really not. He'll be fine if he takes good care of himself." Sang Jiu's family is a martial arts family. People who have learned martial arts since childhood will more or less know some medical skills. She also knows a little, although she is not proficient, but it is more than enough to treat Ashu's external injuries.

　　There's just no medicine.

　　Sang Jiu asked the system if it could give him some medicine.

　　The system says no: [You can choose relevant skills to get rewards. ]

　　Sang Jiu happened to know how to set bones, so she directly opened the bone-setting chapter in the intangible cultural heritage of traditional Chinese medicine. She knew this herself, so she started treating Ashu's arm directly.

　　After the treatment, the system gives the following reward: [A. Intermittent ointment B. Bandaging set of four pieces C. Oral medicine. ]

　　Sang Jiu chose a discontinuity ointment, which came in a small jar. She scooped out all the ointment and applied it to Ashu's dislocated and fractured parts. She then used bamboo to make a splint and tore her replacement pillowcase into strips to tie it up.

　　After she finished, she checked and found that Ashu was burning with fever: "System, this person has a fever, can you be generous and give him some antipyretic medicine or something?"

　　System: [You can continue to study Chinese medicine in depth. ]

　　"...He is young, maybe he will be fine after a good sleep." Traditional Chinese Medicine is extensive and profound, and Sang Jiu does not have the energy to study it in depth for the time being. She got up and used well water to wipe his forehead, neck and body to cool down.

　　In the middle of the night, Ashu's fever subsided, and after Ah Hua's tense nerves relaxed, she also developed a fever, which did not subside until almost dawn.

　　Sang Jiu stayed up almost all night before going back to bed and falling asleep. When he woke up, it was almost noon. The voices of Ah Hua and Bao Fu could be heard from outside from time to time, mixed with Ah Shu's weak voice.

　　When she walked out of the door, she saw Ah Hua standing next to the vegetable patch, looking at the emerald green vegetable patch with surprise on her face. It was completely hard to tell that she had had a fever last night. Ah Shu also looked much better, sitting on a chair under the bamboo shed, also looking at the vegetable patch in surprise.

　　"Brother, the seedlings here are growing well, better than what we grow."

　　"Um."

　　"It's a pity that our seedlings were snatched away." Ah Hua sighed, but was soon healed by the vast expanse of green in front of her. It was the first time in her life that she had seen so many green plants.

　　She took a deep breath. It was so nice. These green plants were all fragrant.

　　When Bao Fu🐱 came back in the morning and found that his land was occupied by two people, he was very annoyed. He had been glaring at Ah Hua and Ah Shu with dissatisfaction. Now he was even more dissatisfied when he saw Ah Hua circling around the vegetable field again: These are his and Sang Jiuzhong! What are you looking at!

　　Ah Hua walked away silently, she wanted to watch.

　　Bao Fu growled, "Look at me again and I'll eat you!"

　　"Get rich." Sang Jiu said, and Ah Hua immediately looked over happily, "Sang Jiu, are you awake?"

　　Baofu ran to Sang Jiu to complain that two people had occupied his sleeping place and were eyeing the vegetables they planted, so he quickly drove them away.

　　"It's six meters long, you can still fit two more people." Sang Jiu pushed Bao Fu away and walked towards Ashu, "What do you think?"

　　"Much better, thank you, you saved us again." Ashu stood up with the help of the table and wanted to bow to express his gratitude.

　　"Don't move, your ribs are broken..." Sang Jiu said, and then he noticed Ah Shu's movements. Hey, is the intermittent ointment so effective? Can he stand up today?

　　System: [The intermittent ointment produced by the system is very effective. It will heal and allow you to walk normally in two days. ]

　　[And your health will gradually improve if you stay in the safe zone. ]

　　Does the protective shield have this function?

　　Sang Jiu realized belatedly that she had not felt any discomfort in her chest since she woke up from the cryostat. "My body is getting better too?"

　　The system didn't say anything, but Sang Jiu was certain that her health was not very good before she was frozen.

　　She originally thought that the environment on the waste planet was terrible and that she was forced to learn things, which made her feel extremely unlucky. However, she did not expect that it was a blessing in disguise. She smiled in a good mood. She had a hunch that the better the environment here was, the better her health would be.

　　She was talking to the system in her mind, and others looked at her as if she was in a daze. Bao Fu saw her standing there blankly, turned around and dragged the goodies he brought back this morning in front of Sang Jiu, meowed, and motioned for her to look.

　　"Did you catch it?" Sang Jiu looked at the huge black creature it brought to him and his brows immediately lit up with joy. It turned out to be a black pig.

　　Sang Jiu excitedly circled around the wild boar twice. It should be an immature mutant wild boar, only about 1.5 meters long and weighing about 300 kilograms. It was completely black, with two fangs more than ten centimeters long sticking out on both sides, with some blood stains on them.

　　"Bao Fu, what you brought back this time is very good! I like this!" Sang Jiujue grabbed the pig's head and took a look. She found that except for the fatal bite on the neck, there were no obvious scratches anywhere else. "This wasn't caused by you, was it?"

　　Baofu nodded his big head. When he went to catch the big rat, he encountered other mutant star beasts hunting. After they finished hunting, he secretly took one away. He remembered the name that Sang Jiu had given him, so he wanted to grab the good and valuable things towards himself.

　　"This is good. We can drag it back if we meet it again." Sang Jiu patted the mutant wild boar's butt. It had more muscles and less fat. It should be delicious to stir-fry the pork twice.

　　Bao Fu shouted happily, he knew that Sang Jiu would like this star beast.

　　"Well done! Baofu, go get some sleep. I'll take care of the pig. I'll use it to make something delicious after I'm done."

　　He was looking forward to getting rich quickly and sat down nearby, refusing to leave.

　　"It's still early. We can't eat it until it's cooked in the evening. Go away." Sang Jiu sent Bao Fu to catch up on his sleep under the bamboo shed. Then she opened the inheritance system, found the butcher's skill inheritance, opened it, and after learning it, she rolled up her sleeves and started to deal with the wild boar.

　　"Sang Jiu, let me help you." Ah Hua immediately ran over to help. Sang Jiu had helped her a lot this time, and she must work hard to repay her.

　　Sang Jiu hummed: "You come and light the fire, and boil water to perm the fur."

　　Ah Hua exclaimed in confusion: "This is a hard-haired star beast. We usually just peel off the skin and eat it."

　　Sang Jiu touched the wild boar's hair, which was about the thickness of her little finger and very sharp like steel needles and could prick people. There was indeed no way to shave it like you would an ordinary domestic pig.

　　Moreover, the skin of the wild boar was very thick and could not be cut open, so she just skinned it. After skinning it, she cut open its belly and took out the internal organs. The internal organs were covered with a layer of pork fat, which was not very thick. It can be seen that the food of the star beasts on the waste planet is not very good.

　　The oil was torn off and put aside, and the remaining pig heart, pig lungs, large intestine and other internal organs were thrown aside. The air in the waste star was polluted, and the sky was full of sand, so the pig's internal organs were too clean, especially the lungs had obvious sand and gravel. In addition, the star beasts grew up eating other meats, and it was unknown what kind of tissues were in the intestines.

　　"These can also be eaten." Ah Hua looked at the pig heart, bamboo pole and other internal organs reluctantly. Due to lack of water, they did not eat large intestines, but they were reluctant to throw away the other internal organs.

　　"Its internal organs are all black, so it's better not to eat them. Eat them later if you can find clean ones." Sang Jiu actually quite likes dishes like pig tripe soup and stir-fried pork intestines, but she really doesn't dare to eat these.

　　Ah Hua opened her mouth, but chose to listen to Sang Jiu.

　　Sang Jiu threw away what should be thrown away. Including bones and meat, there were less than 200 kilograms left. According to the butcher's habit, Sang Jiu classified and cut them into ribs, pork belly, bones, front legs and hind legs.

　　[Congratulations on learning the skills of a butcher. Please choose the reward: A. A set of butchering tools B. Butchering soul mate C. A portion of kitchen sauce. ]

　　Sang Jiu: "What the hell is a pig-killing companion?"

　　[Buckets, pots, aprons, boots, and masks for handling internal organs are needed for slaughtering pigs. ]

　　Sang Jiu was silent:...I didn't expect the system to be a clickbait title.

　　Not wanting the first two, Sang Jiu chose C, which contains five kinds of sauces: soy sauce, vinegar, sugar, bean paste, and cooking wine. These sauces are good, and she can have more room for creativity.

　　Many dishes she wanted to eat immediately came to my mind, but it was still early, so she was not in a hurry. She decided to boil the pork fat first, as it would be needed for cooking in the evening.

　　It is very simple to make lard. Sang Jiu made it in the same way as he made rabbit oil before. After a while, transparent oil came out with a fragrant aroma. Ah Hua and Ah Shu were so attracted that they drooled. It smelled so good!!!

　　The sudden wealth was also tempted , so he pushed his food bowl over and ran over, drooling as he waited, wanting to eat! ! ! !

　　"You are too greedy, what a greedy cat."

　　The greedy cat couldn't help himself and pushed his food bowl forward a little, "Meow~"

　　"Okay, okay, I'll give you some first." Sang Jiu scooped out a small spoonful of oil residue and put it in its bowl, then filled a small half bowl for Ahua and A Shu, took two pieces for himself, and boiled the rest dry.

　　Sang Jiu bit the oil residue with a crunching sound. The pork that had not been fed with pig feed tasted delicious!

　　"It's delicious!" It was the first time for Ah Hua to eat such delicious hard-haired star beast meat. Her eyes sparkled, making her pretty face lively and energetic.

　　Ah Shu also thought it was delicious. He had only stewed it before and it didn't have much flavor. Now he felt like he had missed out on a lot. "You're really good. It tastes delicious."

　　"You can cook it if you know a little bit of cooking skills." Sang Jiu's cooking skills are average, but for Ahua and Baofu, who always stew their food or eat it raw, it is enough.

　　Ah Hua looked at Sang Jiu with admiration, he was so awesome.

　　Sang Jiu smiled and planned to use the seasoning to cook a few more dishes to shock the little girl.

　　The three people and the cat ate the oil residue one after another. When the oil was cooked, the oil residue was basically scooped out and eaten. Sang Jiu poured the oil into a wooden basin that was directly carved out, and even put it in the wooden house to avoid dirtying it.

　　When she came out, Baofu started to pull other meat and signaled her to continue boiling the oil residue.

　　"Let's not eat the oil residue. Let's make braised pork. We just happen to have the seasoning." Sang Jiu found the recipe of braised pork from the intangible cultural heritage Suzhou cuisine in the system. Following the steps taught by the chef, she took out the pork belly and cooked a pot directly.

　　After stewing the braised pork, she went to the bamboo forest and picked some fresh bamboo shoots. She made a separate dish of bamboo shoots and pork, which is a Sichuan cuisine intangible cultural heritage. Finally, she used the remaining oil and water to cook a pot of water spinach soup.

　　Suzhou-style braised pork is mainly cooked with thick red sauce, which tastes fatty but not greasy, sweet but not sticky, and rich but not salty.

　　The bamboo shoots are fragrant, crispy and tender, the pork belly is crispy and not greasy, and the bean paste inside is very fragrant. It tastes very good with rice. It's a pity that there is no rice. If there was rice, Sang Jiu would definitely eat two bowls.

　　It was the first time that Baofu ate a hot meat dish other than stewed rabbit with potatoes, and he was immediately attracted by the rich taste. It turned out that the bristlecone was so delicious that he couldn't help but lie on the ground and roll around.

　　Ah Hua and Ah Shu were similar, they were so delicious that they felt like floating on the clouds, "It turns out that these things can be so delicious if they are cooked differently!"

　　Sang Jiu smiled and said yes, these are the cooking methods of intangible cultural heritage cuisine, how could they be selected if they are not delicious?
