Braised Dragon with Soy Sauce

Chapter 241 Secret Recipe Spirit Egg

After a period of adjustment, Mo Yuming was finally able to control his battered body with ease. At this moment, his mind was as peaceful as still water. He slowly sat down cross-legged and began to circulate his internal energy to heal his injuries.

Previously, when the soul left the body, the physical body, without the support of the soul, was like a candle flickering in the wind. It was only by the "water soul's" incredibly powerful regenerative function that it was able to barely maintain a sliver of life.

Nevertheless, although the skin on its surface has gradually recovered to a considerable extent, the severe damage to its internal organs has not been substantially repaired, and it has only managed to retain a slight chance of survival.

However, at this moment, with the successful return of the soul, the originally lifeless body seemed to be injected with a vigorous life force, instantly radiating vitality.

With Mo Yuming focusing all his energy on cultivation, the deep-seated injuries within his body were healing rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The stagnant and stagnant channels were like a torrent being poured into a dried-up channel, and began to be cleared up continuously.

At the same time, the dantian in the abdomen was like a tireless engine, running wildly and desperately gathering the spiritual energy of heaven and earth around it.

And so, time slipped by unnoticed, and two hours passed in the blink of an eye. When Mo Yuming opened his eyes again, he was pleasantly surprised to find that he could now get out of bed and walk freely!

Just then, an enticing aroma wafted over. It turned out that Ya Zhu and Xiao Xiao had thoughtfully prepared a steaming bowl of mixed venison porridge for him.

Mo Yuming eagerly picked up the bowl and drank it down in large gulps. He felt that the porridge melted in his mouth, was sweet and delicious, and every sip seemed to contain endless warmth and care.

After finishing a bowl of porridge, Mo Yuming felt incredibly refreshed and his strength had returned considerably. With Ya Zhu and Xiao Xiao's help, he went to the corridor and sat down to rest on a chair on the covered walkway.

Just then, Ah Liang, who had stolen the eggs, returned with his henchmen, laden with his spoils. Each of the three carried two enormous brown-necked eggs in their hands.

The brown-necked pheasant in the canyon is a giant among birds. Adult brown-necked pheasants can grow to nearly ten feet tall, which is taller than ostriches on Earth. Naturally, the eggs they lay are not small.

It was already the limit for a child of that age to lift two eggs. By the time Grandpa He and the others took the eggs, the three of them were panting heavily. They ran to the kitchen to get some water, their foreheads covered in sweat.

Not long after, the girls who had picked blue peaches returned, each carrying a full basket of peaches. Seeing the guests, they quickly offered peaches to everyone and greeted them. They were especially delighted to see Mo Yuming sitting on the bridge.

Around noon, the children who had gone out gradually returned. They excitedly surrounded Mo Yuming, playing and laughing, expressing their joy in a way unique to children.

At this moment, with the help of several older children, Xiaoxiao and Yazhu had already prepared a sumptuous lunch. Everyone gathered around Mo Yuming and came to the large dining room, where they sat down around the huge round table.

There are ten round tables like these in the large restaurant, each seating twenty or thirty people. They were originally used for gatherings of people from the canyon. Now, the twenty-odd children, Mo Yuming, Xiao Xiao, and Lei Ye are all sitting around one table.

The table was laden with a variety of dishes, all of which were unique delicacies from the canyon. There were mountain fruits rich in spiritual elements, rare and precious herbs and wild vegetables that were hard to find outside, and juice made from freshly squeezed berries.

There were naturally even more meat dishes. The delicious braised brown-necked chicken with blue honey fruit was a must, along with braised snow-haired reindeer breast, braised dragon claw pig's trotters, and more. More than twenty dishes were laid out on the table.

With Huang Xiaoxiao, the "little imperial chef," personally cooking, and with the fine salt that Mo Yuming dried and the secret sauces made by Huang Rongrong and the others as seasonings, the taste was naturally excellent.

The most special dish among these delicacies is the mysterious dish placed right in the center of the table, because the entire dish is covered with a bamboo cover, making it impossible to know what it contains.

Mo Yuming had been lying in bed for over ten days, and after several hours of cultivation, his physical functions had almost recovered. Seeing so much delicious food, he had a great appetite.

If it weren't for the presence of many children and the need to maintain a respectable image as the eldest child, I would have already been feasting.

"Young Master, this dish was specially made for you by the young lady. Can you guess what it is?" Ya Zhu said to Mo Yuming as everyone sat down to eat.

"It's served in a bamboo steamer, so it must be steamed food. Steamed snow carp? But snow carp aren't found in the canyon! It probably isn't."

Mo Yuming guessed.

"No, although this dish has been steamed, it does not belong to the category of steamed dishes."

"Not steamed dishes? What are they? They smell faintly fragrant, so they shouldn't be meat dishes. Could it be a fruit platter made with the Ice Jade Fruit, a specialty of the Cold Pool?"

"Hehe, that's even more wrong. Ice Jade Fruit tastes best when it's ice-cold, how can you heat it up? Young Master, you're too thoughtful. Master He prepared this dish for more than three months, and then Miss personally prepared and marinated it. More than thirty kinds of ingredients took nearly half a year to make."

Ya Zhu explained.

"It takes so long? It's so complicated? What kind of dish is it?" Mo Yuming asked in surprise.

"Hehe, let's not guess anymore, or the food will get cold. Let's just uncover it and see. Let's eat together, don't wait too long, or it won't taste as good!" Xiao Xiao said with a smile.

"Secret Recipe Spirit Egg! It's actually made from the egg of a long-necked chicken dragon! No wonder it smells so refreshing."

It is said that the Long-necked Chicken Dragon lives deep in the Rimu Valley and feeds only on the Pure Spirit Herb and the Transparent Tree Fruit. Therefore, even when its flesh rots and decays, it will have a special fragrance and no fishy smell like ordinary magical beasts.

Long-necked chicken dragons are already rare, and their level is very high. They are extremely agile, and ordinary Heavenly Rank experts are no match for them. Only experts like Lord He, who have reached the fourth level of the Heavenly Rank, dare to fight them.

The Long-necked Chicken Dragon is a wood-attribute magical beast, and its eggs contain a high level of wood-attribute spiritual energy. They are top-grade nourishing and healing ingredients, truly rare.

"After being prepared using a secret method, the eggshell of this spirit egg has softened, becoming as smooth and delicious as a tender pastry. The egg white has turned into a thick soup, which, once broken open, mixes with the other ingredients and broth outside the bowl to form a unique egg soup."

The yolk forms a jelly-like consistency. When eating, eat the yolk first, then cut the eggshell into thin strips and dip it in soup.

Because the long-necked chicken dragon egg contains extremely high levels of wood element energy, each child can only consume a small spoonful of egg yolk and a small amount of broth; any more than that would be too much for them to handle.

Ya Zhu and I can only eat a few spoonfuls at most. The rest will have to be eaten by you guys.

"Alright, let me open it and see what this legendary secret-recipe spirit egg looks like!"

Mo Yuming couldn't wait to lift the bamboo cover.

"Wow!..." More than twenty eyes were all fixed on the dish in the center of the table.

In the center of a jade basin, twelve inches wide and six inches deep, a translucent, golden-yellow giant egg floats in a milky-white broth. A layer of slowly flowing, iridescent light floats on the surface of the broth and eggshell, emitting a delightful fragrance that is intoxicating. The aroma alone brings a sense of comfort and invigorates the spirit.

Pick up a bamboo knife made of jade bamboo and gently slice it on the eggshell. The clear broth from the egg white inside flows out and mixes with the broth in the bowl. The flowing egg white does not mix with the milky white broth, but instead forms a soup with the blue and white colors intertwined.
