Chapter 91 Warring States Chef, Chef Ding (Silver)
Xia Tian was right.
Zhu Youxiao's "accompanied wonder" is in the carpenter's box at his hand. It is a black and gold carving knife!
[Carving Knife (Blue)]
[Type] Strange Object
[Characteristics] Spirit Attachment (the wood can be infused with spiritual power during the carving process, allowing it to improve its level and acquire certain 'basic characteristics' of a certain tendency), Spirit Attachment (for products that have put a lot of effort into, it can be attached to a 'god', making it It has a certain degree of 'spirituality')
[Explanation] The rare items associated with the "Zhu Carpenter" can gradually improve as they make wooden utensils.
Generally speaking, the grade of the rare objects accompanying the heroes of Silver History is not too high.
Zhu Youxiao, like Li Ru, carries a blue strange object with him, which shows that its potential is at least excellent!
“What a big snake... Today at noon, everyone is lucky enough to be able to eat snake soup.”
At this time, the "butcher" with the silver boning knife hanging on his waist looked at the blue-eyed two-headed snake that emerged from the river under the impact of the current after being killed by the wooden puppet in the river, and his eyes lit up!
After reaching out one hand to grab it out of the water, he took off his boning knife with the other hand and started deboning it in public on the river bank.
Puff, puff, puff...
With the knife in his hand, he picked out lumps of crystal-colored snake meat with his knife, leaving only a piece of snake meat on the river bank. A pile of snake bones in the form of completely white bones.
The key is that during the entire deboning process, the snake bones were not damaged at all.
You know, the structure of the bones of snakes can be said to be extremely complex, especially this is a rare two-headed snake. Ordinary people will feel dizzy when they see the structure of snake bones, let alone deboning!
“Hiss, what a powerful sword skill!
Ding Xiu, who has a very good character and is very confident in his sword skills, took a breath of cold air when he saw this.
As a person who has reached the level of "grand master" in swordsmanship, he believes that even if he tries his best, he can't do it
It's mainly due to his lack of expertise
And Xia Tian is also a little surprised.
Because, he found that the snake meat picked out by the "butcher" looked neat and tidy, with the bones and flesh separated. There was no trace of blood on the bones, and the color of the meat was crystal clear, and there was blood but it would not flow out!
This effect is no worse than the effect of my own collection technique, and is even stronger.
You know, although the collection technique can quickly decompose loot.
But just like the "Eye of Insight", it requires a lot of mental power, and even using more advanced collection techniques also requires the power of luck!
If this "butcher" can be recruited into the territory, he can also save a lot of luck.
However, just when Xia Tian thought that the other party was a "butcher".
"My lord, you are here as a guest. Please try our 'Golden Dragon Soup'!"
Two people brought out four colors from the kitchen. The soup bowl, which had a slight golden color and was as big as a head, was handed to the four people in Xia Tian and said with expectation.
“Well, this soup is very unusual...”
Wu Song looked moved.
Just because he smelled the soup, he felt the flow of spiritual power in his body speed up and his blood surge. It can be seen that this bowl of soup is extremely beneficial to practice.
"My bowl of soup still contains large pieces of meat, and the color is actually golden."
Xia Tian, who has stronger eyesight, even noticed that there was still meat floating in his portion of the soup. A fist-sized piece of golden flesh seemed to exude a crystal luster in the sunlight!
Hey guys, glowing food, right?
[Golden Dragon Vulture Soup (Silver)]
[Level] Metamorphosis
[Characteristics] Nourishes the body and mind (the spiritual power contained in the soup can temper the human body and increase the progress of transformation. At the same time Nourishes the heart and restores the power of the mind)
[Description] It is mainly a piece of heart meat that condenses the essence of the whole body of the 'Golden Dragon Vulture'. It is also combined with Ningshen grass, red fruit, etc., and is carefully cooked by top chefs. Soup!
"Silver... Good guy, is there not only a carpenter who is comparable to a master, but also a chef who is comparable to a master?"
Xia Tian was a little surprised again.
You must know that this bowl of soup belongs to the "transformation" level. It is impossible for ordinary master chefs to be able to make a silver transformation-level soup at the current stage!
“However, the characteristics of this soup can restore the 'mind', which is suitable for me now."
Due to the serious "mind consumption" caused by the continuous use of the Eye of Insight, this bowl of soup The characteristics can be said to be just right.
Xia Tian picked up the bowl and took a sip of the soup first, and found that although it looked steaming hot, the temperature was just right after entering the mouth. When it rolled into the throat, a warm and fragrant feeling spread throughout the body.
His head, which had been a little tired due to a lot of mental exertion, suddenly felt refreshed!
“What a soup, and the taste is top-notch!”
In addition, the taste of the soup made Xia Tian couldn’t help but praise it.
Finally, I have delicious food. This is the beautiful taste that food should have in a world with strange powers like the Eternal Land!
You know, the meat he eats in his territory is almost boiled in boiled water. Maybe it feels very fresh when he eats it for the first or second time, but he starts to feel uncomfortable after eating too much.
Especially in order to practice "Five Animals", he ate a lot of meat every day, which made even the black and white pheasant meat and golden pterosaur meat a little difficult to swallow.
Although some modern seasonings were also opened from the treasure chest, the quantity was too small and not enough, and Pan Jinlian and others were not good at cooking with modern seasonings.
But now this broth, which seems to be cooked only using raw materials from the eternal land and the fruits of plants, tastes so good that Xia Tian almost wants to swallow his tongue!
Hey guys, the silver tastes so good, wouldn’t the golden one be even better?
Of course, this is definitely impossible to say.
In the land of eternity, taste is not the criterion for evaluating food quality, it depends more on characteristics.
“The soup that Chef Ding cooked today is made from the golden dragon monster that Zhuangshi Zhao killed. People with stronger bodies can absorb it better. We only drink a small bowl of soup and don’t eat meat. The whole body was unbearably hot, and they all drank it without much reaction!"
"Could it be that these four people are all extraordinary masters?"
" No way, we don’t even have a ‘transformed mortal’ at the moment. Are all the Lord’s subordinates so powerful? Damn it, wouldn’t that make us look down upon us even more?” People drank the soup without changing their expressions, and the residents of the territory began to whisper.
"So this person is not a butcher, but a cook? Ding, could it be..."
After hearing these people's words, Xia Tian's heart moved.
You must know that the name "Ding" most likely comes from people from the pre-Qin Dynasty. Before the Qin Dynasty, people with the name "Ding" had such extreme cooking skills.
Because he had recovered a lot of his mental strength by drinking soup, Xia Tian once again used the "Eye of Insight" to observe the butcher.
[Ding (Silver)]
[Level] Level 9 (Soul Limit) [Talent] Eyeless Cow (can clearly see the direction of the flesh texture and bone structure of the target creature)
[Characteristic] Slaughter the Cow (for cattle Increased damage caused by quasi-like creatures), ease of use (skills in butchering knife skills are beyond ordinary)
[Skills] Chef (Master), Slaughtering Knife Craftsman (Grandmaster)
[Description] One person A master chef with extremely outstanding skills, he also possesses ultimate knife skills that surpass those of a master!
"Sure enough, this person is the cook!"
Xia Tian's face showed an expression of guessing.
Paoding is not a name.
Among them, "blister" means the occupation of "cook" in ancient times, and "ding" is the name!
In the pre-Qin era, many people at the bottom did not have a bunch of surnames, surnames, and even names and nicknames like people in later generations. It was complicated and difficult to remember. The full name of this chef who was also a butcher "Man".
Compared with Zhu Youxiao, Pao Ding's appearance is not inferior in any way, and is even more "gorgeous" in some aspects. His sword skills are extraordinary, similar to Wu Song's fist and kick skills in foot combat!
There is also a silver-white bone razor in his hand. Xia Tian guessed that it was most likely the other party's companion rare object.
It is said that Cook Ding's skills are extremely high. The knife in his hand has been used for nineteen years and has slaughtered thousands of cattle. However, the blade is as smooth as new, and there is not even any chip on the blade!
Just because he has mastered the art of slaughtering cattle to an extent that is beyond human capabilities. He knows all the structures of the cow very well, and the knife in his hand can easily move between the gaps between the bones of the cow. The meat is completely removed without any collision with the bones.
This is also the origin of the idiom of later generations: "Nothing is complete, and you are able to do it with ease"!
However, the spread of the story of Pao Ding mainly comes from an article by Zhuangzi, not a historical record.
For this reason, even if the knife craftsmanship is extremely superb and the reputation is not low, after arriving in the eternal land, he will only be silver, not directly a golden hero!
"Hey, sir, you have good eyesight. This knife of mine is indeed something special."
After discovering that Xia Tian was very interested in his boning knife, Cook Ding looked full of confidence. said.
“The meat cut by it will always remain in the freshest state! In addition, during the process of cutting the meat, I can concentrate all the flesh and blood essence contained in the whole body into a very small amount. A part of meat, or the top of a bone, allows its quality to reach its limit, or even improve it.”
"In this case, just eating a piece of meat and a bone is equivalent to swallowing the essence of a whole head of food."
At the same time, it also explains why he can "transform into the ordinary" before he has. "The reason why this silver quality soup is produced under the circumstances.
"I see, so this soup is the second best? The real nutrition is still in the meat."
After hearing what Cook Ding said, Xia Tian looked at the soup in his bowl. A fist-sized piece of golden-colored meat.
“The heart meat of the golden dragon vulture, this thing, can’t be a creature of the golden dragon bloodline like the golden pterosaur, right?”
After making some guesses in his mind, Xia Tian ate the meat with expectation.
The taste in the mouth is soft and glutinous with elasticity, which is also extremely delicious. Especially after this ball of golden meat is eaten, a huge and abundant spiritual power suddenly explodes in the body, passing through When it comes to his internal organs, limbs, and every cell, his body is already just short of the "second level of mortal transformation" bottleneck.
Suddenly, it was broken through.
"Ang~"
While breaking through.
Xia Tian's whole body's bones, flesh and blood, and even his soul were shaken at the same time, and he let out a sound like a "dragon roar".
Even, there was an illusory dragon shape transformed by the spiritual power of "Dragon's Secret Code". It quickly traveled along his body, tempering the spiritual power into every bone and bone. In the flesh and blood, his soul and body become stronger and more stable!
"Are you dazzled? I seemed to hear a dragon roar, and I saw a dragon emerging from the adult's body!"
"No, there is nothing wrong with you, I saw it too ! ”
“This is a vision. I am afraid that this gentleman is the reincarnation of the True Dragon Emperor and will become the emperor in the future!”
The territory residents who had been watching Xia Tian were shaken, their eyes were dazed, and they said incredulously.
"Sir, have you achieved a breakthrough?"
Even Wu Song, Ding Xiu, and Hua Rong, who have also reached mortal transformation, feel a certain amount of pressure standing next to Xia Tian.
This is the stage of transformation. Each transformation is a substantial improvement. Although it is not a huge difference, there will be a significant change in combat effectiveness!
“Your soup is very good, thank you very much!”
Xia Tian said to Cook Ding.
"Lord, please taste the wine..."
"Lord, how do you think I raise these horses?"
" Lord, this is the Sichuan brocade weaved by myself. It is warm in winter and cool in summer..."
"Sir, look at the eggs my boy dug out are pretty good..."
After seeing that the craftsmanship of the carpenter and the cook had been affirmed by Xia Tian, especially after this lord was suspected of being the "reincarnation of a true dragon", the people in this territory became even more enthusiastic.
Everyone showed off their special skills.
Expert masons can create mud bricks with their bare hands that are neat and as hard as stone.
The expert horse trainer has raised more than ten war horses in his territory that have reached level seven and can understand human speech.
Expert tailors can weave silk and linen extracted from the roots of trees and grass into fabrics that are as soft as silk!
Even several children were called over by adults and performed some "tricks" in front of the four people.
"These people..."
Seeing this, Wu Song and Hua Rong were not only surprised, but even a little "ashamed"!
After all, although it cannot be said that those who were proficient in a life skill among the people they brought before them were rare, they were still very few.
But the residents of this territory all have unique skills. Even children wearing ragged crotches can climb trees and dig out bird's nests like monkeys.
While Xia Tian was dealing with their enthusiasm, doubts were unavoidable in her heart.
The performance of these people was completely different from the "pride" he originally thought came from the technical staff.
Facing him, a foreign lord, his attitude was extremely enthusiastic, and even obviously a little uneasy. He dragged his family into battle, just like cabbage waiting to be picked in the market!
