Queen Rushi
Chapter 123 Kuaci
Taka was so excited down the rocks to climb, but nothing could be used as a footstool. ‘’What are you doing?! That beast will eat you!’’
The crocodile was immediately transformed into a human being, and showed Wani who carried a lot of crabs and fish. He and Queen Rushi put on a stupid face to see Taka who was so noisy save himself.
Seeing the crocodile had changed into a man, making Taka finally calm down. ‘’You're human, yes?’’
‘’Why? You think I'm a turtle that can fly?’’ ask Wani.
Queen Rushi covered her mouth and coughed with the intention of holding back laughter. ‘’Already. We'd better have breakfast first.’’
As usual, the woman would cultivate sea beasts in order to be consumed properly. Wani who usually eat the sea animals directly, trying to eat processed Queen Rushi.
Occasionally, Taka asks and protests why the woman should do it in such a way, making Queen Rushi shake her head.
‘’If you can't keep your mouth shut, I can help you,’’ Wani said with a single greeting making Taka shut up.
‘’Creepy man,’’ whispered Taka.
‘’Ha?!’’ exclaim Wani.
Tens of minutes later after processing the crab and fish, the three ate the food. Once done, Queen Rushi took the sunflower seeds earlier.
‘’Usually I eat kuaci as dessert. I never thought I could eat it here again. In addition, these seeds will heal your bones Taka,’’ said Ratu Rushi.
‘’Are we going to eat these seeds whole?’’ ask Taka.
‘’By it. Most of your digestive tract and intestines will be damaged and sreg,’’ said Ratu Rushi slicing his neck with his thumb.
Taka and Wani immediately swallowed the saliva with a sour face. The two asked how to eat the kuaci. Queen Rushi grabs a quaci and bites the surface of the skin, then separates the skin by leaving the contents of the seeds on the tongue and chewing them.
‘’Asin once!’’ said Taka.
‘’You just soaked it with sea water, why is it so salty like this?’’ ask Wani.
‘’That's because of its own salty seawater. The Natural History Museum, UK, launches sea water or salinity of salty seas caused by rain that washes mineral ions from the land into water. The process starts when the carbon dioxide in the air dissolves into the rainwater, making it slightly acidic,’’ Ratu Rushi said.
Wani just shook her head with a doubtful face. He never understood the woman in front of him. He stared at the sunflower seeds in his hand as well as Taka.
Queen Rushi explained that sun seeds are an excellent source of folate (vitamin B9) and vitamin B6. Both vitamins are needed for protein metabolism and red blood cell production. In addition, another benefit is to provide intake of vitamin B5 (pantothenic acid).
‘’Whatever it is, I don't want to eat this salted kuaci,’’ said Taka restored the seed husk earlier.
‘’She's been working hard to make it for you. After all the salty ones are just the skin,’’ said Wani.
‘’This guy really likes to set up. Why is he so hard?’’ ask Taka.
‘’Quick eat the cauci!’’ wani's orders.
Queen Rushi who was between the two men since then only let out a long sigh. The strict Wani and the outspoken Taka made her remember Yagyu and Shika's quarrel. At that very instant, his face suddenly became moody.
Seeing the sad face of Queen Rushi makes Taka also not bear. He smiled wryly as he took his kuaci back, then bit the surface of the skin, then separated the skin by leaving the contents of the seeds on the tongue and chewed it.
‘’Not bad,’’ says Taka.
‘’I told you, right?’’ ask Wani while chewing.
