The Strongest Omega In the Age of Dinosaurs - Chapter 54
It’s true that Mo Danwen really wanted to get the reward, but if the mission was as dangerous as the last random mission, then he would rather wait for himself and Eni to become stronger before doing the mission, at least with more chips.
There is nothing to do without salt. For him, salt already belongs to the level of material enjoyment, and they are still at the level of survival. It is very good to survive, and material enjoyment must be considered under the conditions of ensuring survival.
In this way, Mo Danwen, who just wanted to do the task, quickly forgot about it, how to do it before and how to do it now, hide when it’s time to hide, and avoid dinosaurs when it’s time to avoid dinosaurs.
The only things I do every day are to find food, eat, go to the toilet, enter the space, cultivate, and sleep. It is not an exaggeration to say that I am isolated from the dinosaurs. Of course, the three little dinosaurs who were with them originally were exceptions.
What has changed is that the rice finally matured after ten days. The rice is bigger than Mo Danwen’s fist, almost the size of the palm of an adult’s hand. , that is, I have no appetite when I see it.
The small grains of golden rice in the original world looked very attractive, but when they replaced them with palm-sized golden rice, Mo Danwen couldn’t figure out whether it was a grain of rice or a perverted sweet potato.
What worries Mo Danwen even more is how much firewood does it take to cook the palm-sized rice grains before they are fully cooked? You must know that the small grains of rice in the original world have been cooked for a long time, and this palm-sized rice may not be fully cooked for a day. When he thought that after the rice was cooked, the outside was soft and the inside was hard, he lost his appetite even more.
The rice plant is very tall, as thick as the branches of a big tree. Mo Danwen and Yini have entered the middle stage of foundation building, and the two of them can use their infuriating energy to uproot the rice plant, and let the plant fall to the ground so that the rice can be easily broken.
That’s right, it is breaking. In modern times, rice grains are beaten out with rice plants. Since the rice grains in the space are the size of a palm, Mo Danwen and Yini both break them off one by one as if they were breaking corn.
“Stand aside and rest, don’t do it, I will break it alone.” Ini thought that Mo Danwen broke the rice with a black face because he was tired.
“Ah?” Mo Danwen looked over with questioning eyes, and when he saw the worry and guilt in Yini’s eyes, he guessed that Yini was wrong, and quickly explained, “I’m not tired, I just hate this rice.”
“Disgusting? Why, don’t you like them very much?” If you don’t like them very much, why do you come to see them almost every day, let alone the children, even he is a little jealous who accompanies him every time.
“I like rice and I want to eat rice, yes, but what I’m thinking about is the rice in our hometown.” Mo Danwen poked his little finger with his thumb nail to compare the size, “The rice grains in our hometown are only so small. the size of.”
Ini was even more puzzled, “How can this thing be enough to eat, isn’t it bad to grow up to be so big, this size can fill the stomach.”
“Do you think we only eat one grain of rice?” Mo Danwen rolled his eyes, “The grain of rice on our side is very small. When we cook rice, we usually measure rice with something like a jar, and a bowl of rice counts. I don’t know how many grains of rice there are, so it’s delicious to eat a bite of rice! And the rice plants on our side are not so tall, they are only a little taller than people.”
In the past, he didn’t know how fragrant the rice in his hometown was, but when he came here and couldn’t eat rice, he really understood the importance of rice. Now he is even more hungry for rice than when he was in the orphanage as a child.
However, a piece of rice as big as it is now can only be eaten one bite at a time. This is a sweet potato, not rice, okay!
In his opinion, such a big rice is no longer rice, and he personally prefers fine and delicate things, such as apples. Some people like to eat large ones, but he likes to eat small ones. Mooncakes should also be cut into small ones. Only one slice is delicious, so he thinks rice is not as good as millet.
“It’s big, it can last a long time.”
Yini still can’t understand Mo Danwen’s idea. He thinks that if he is bigger, he can eat enough to eat for a long time. Like Mo Danwen said, rice is only a little taller than human beings, and there is only such a small grain of rice here. It is estimated that the rice grains grown by a few rice plants are not enough for them to eat a meal.
“Let’s not talk about whether the small ones are better than the big ones. We have a small grain of rice that takes a long time to cook, and it can be cooked quickly with certain cooking tools, such as a rice cooker. It is especially simple to use other pots like ours. Conditions, it is estimated that it will take more than an hour to cook, and that is still a small grain of rice. If you replace it with such a big rice, it is estimated that it will be difficult to cook the inside for a day. It is very likely that the outside will be soft and boiled, but the inside is still hard. hard!”
Mo Danwen stopped breaking the rice. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that breaking the rice was a waste of time. This rice might not be edible.
Yi Ni also stopped, but his thoughts were different from Mo Danwen’s, “How about we cook first?”
Instead of talking about it here, it is better to try it out. Try it and you will know if it can be cooked, and if you try it, you will know if it is good or not.
“That’s right, just try it!”
The two took two pieces of rice each and walked out of the space. They took the rice in their hands and took the children to the place where they usually cook and eat.
Yini skillfully lit the fire, washed the pot, and drained the water, but Mo Danwen stopped him when he washed the rice and was about to put it down.
“Wait, did you forget that I said rice is white!”
Ini looked at the golden rice in his hand, “Maybe it’s a different variety.”
Like the mushrooms they have eaten these days, there are also different shapes and colors. Mo Danwen said at the time that they were of different varieties, and the golden rice was not white, so it might be because of the different varieties.
Mo Danwen grabbed the rice and said angrily, “I suspect that my species is different from yours!”
“It’s you who said that we are all pure human beings.” Ini muttered in a low voice.
“What did you say?” He stared.
“I didn’t speak.” Ini shook his head.
Although it was an obvious lie, Yi Ni knew that Mo Danwen wanted him to lie rather than tell the truth at this time.
To be honest, Ini has never seen such an angry omega, and Mo Danwen’s angry look makes him feel very scared, more frightened than seeing the top predator Weida’s adoptive father angry.
Mo Danwen’s anger dropped by half, and he could only say that after living with him, Yini also learned to be a smooth person.
“Rice is all white, even if the varieties are different, there are only differences in the transparency of the white and the yellowing of the white, but they are basically called white. Now you see the color is different because they still have a layer of shell. Peel off, peel off… Huh?”
Mo Danwen cut a knife on the rice with an animal bone knife and peeled it with his hands. The rice husk, which he thought was difficult to remove, actually fell off. It was much easier than removing the chestnut husk.
The animal bone knife was made from the bones of the beasts they hunted two days ago. Although it is not as sharp as modern knives, fortunately, it can be hammered into a dagger, and it is easy to carry and use.
Yi Ni saw that the originally golden rice was peeled and turned white by Mo Danwen. He knew that he had made a joke just now, and he didn’t know how to react for a while. But the embarrassment was only temporary, and he found that Mo Danwen was even more surprised than him.
“What’s the matter, you seem strange?”
“It’s too easy to remove the shell, we have to grind it there…” Mo Danwen told Ini about the different places, and came to the conclusion that Ini said earlier, “You are right, the varieties are indeed different, which is different from ours. The rice in that world is different.”
Whether it is a rice plant several stories high, a rice as big as a palm, or an easy-to-remove husk, it shows that the rice variety in the space is different from the rice variety in his original world.
Mo Danwen thought it would take a long time to cook, but soon after the water boiled, he found that the outer layer of the rice had begun to rot.
“Give me a chopstick.” Mo Danwen reached out to Yini.
Yesterday, they used an animal bone knife to shave off the rough outer skin of the branches to make chopsticks that are small and big, which are easier to use and cleaner than the branches that were randomly found as chopsticks.
Although Mo Danwen said one piece instead of a pair, Yini thoughtfully handed Mo Danwen a pair of chopsticks, but Mo Danwen still took one chopstick.
Looking at the other chopsticks left in his hand, Yini was a little confused, obviously Mo Danwen himself said that only one pair of chopsticks is needed, and only two chopsticks can hold things.
Mo Danwen didn’t pay attention to Yini’s reaction. He took a chopstick and reached into the pot to poke in the middle of a piece of rice.
As soon as the chopsticks were inserted all the way, the water had only boiled for a few minutes, and the center of the rice was soft! Simply easier to cook than sweet potatoes.
Apart from saying that the varieties are different, Mo Danwen has no reason to describe this rice, which is completely different from the common sense he knew before!
The outer layer of the rice has already begun to smash, and it is impossible to eat it as rice. Mo Danwen intends to cook it into porridge. Another way of saying it is called porridge.
Mo Danwen was not surprised to know that the rice was cooked into porridge in a short time after learning that the center of the rice was cooked very quickly.
When cooking the porridge, he stirred it a few times with a spoon, the crispy rice was mixed with water, and the palm-sized rice was also stirred into pieces. Or the sweet potato pieces that took a long time to boil.
Four pieces of rice and one pot of porridge are divided into five portions, which is not much for the three little dinosaurs that can eat. Mo Danwen is only used as a snack for the children, and Mo Danwen himself is regarded as eating tasteless sweet potato soup.
However, surprisingly, this is not sweet potato soup, which is clearly the taste of white porridge!
Mo Danwen, who was originally picky about this rice, also had to admit that this is rice. It tasted the same as the original world, but it was bigger than the original world, and it was more satiating and easier to cook.
At this point, it seems that his original worries were all in vain. This rice is a treasure even in the modern world, not to mention on this primitive planet!
