Sizzle!
The flames illuminated the terrifying darkness of the abandoned temple. Li Lu used a wooden stick to stir under the fire, and a few round black things, slightly smaller than fists, rolled out from under the firewood pile.
"Master, I'm going to eat first."
Li Lu rubbed his hands together and peeled off the charred skin. An enticing aroma broke free and filled the temple. Underneath the torn skin was a white fruit, resembling sweet potatoes from a past life, called earth fruit, implying a fruit growing from the soil.
This was a local wild fruit that the two of them discovered passing through a small town. After Su Mu saw that Li Lu liked it when they tried it at a stall, he bought a hundred or so pounds and stored it in the Sumeru Ring.
The yield of earth fruit is not high, and farmers don't deliberately cultivate it, so it's just considered a wild fruit that can fill one's stomach.
