Chapter 367: Hundred Flowers Wine
After leaving the Green Dragon Sect, apart from his strength, perhaps only his culinary skills had improved by leaps and bounds.
Although Victor had long ago abstained from eating, he still liked the feeling of food pa.s.sing through his throat and entering his stomach. Therefore, when he had nothing to do, Victor would prepare some food to eat.
That was why he had a lot of food in his storage ring. Salt, sweet vinegar, chili, honey, and other condiments.
Of course, ingredients were also necessary. After all, it was not always possible to find the right food.
After finding a small river, Leng Wuyou and Leng Wuqing were in charge of cleaning the ingredients while Lin Yiya and Lin Zihui were in charge of finding the right place to stay.
As for Victor, he was making a fire.
That was right, a person who mastered a top-tier fire technique was using the most primitive method to start a fire, and that was by drilling wood.
Nalan Lengling, who witnessed all this, thought for a long time before she reminded him, “w.a.n.g Cheng, we are from the Fire Sect. There’s no need to go through so much trouble.”
“This is different, senior sister. You grew up pampered and lived in luxury. In terms of knowledge, I may not have as much as you, but in terms of food, you are definitely not as professional as me.
“Although we have mastered the fire technique, the fire technique that is powered by spiritual power still lacks a trace of smoke. Using the bonfire to roast the sweet potatoes, and then using the red-hot charcoal to simmer the beef, is the real delicacy!”
As Victor spoke, he finally lit the bonfire. The crackling sound of sparks exploding was heard, and immediately, a sense of relief rose.
“Speaking of which, you were a villager from Mount Daba?”
“Yes, the village was destroyed by bandits and everyone died. In the end, after I became a cultivator, I still had to be respectful to the bandits. Isn’t that ridiculous?”
Victor spread his hands and revealed a bitter smile.
“I… I didn’t think of it that way.”
“Sigh, no matter what others think, whether they say that I’m a pleaser or that I’m a coward that’s afraid of death, I can still endure it. Who asked this to be the truth?”
“However…
“Since I’m still alive, I should avenge everyone. Lin Yingzi, Zhang Xiaohu, and Tie Dan’er were my childhood playmates. In the end, I just watched them attacked by bandits…
“Forget it, let’s not talk about this.”
Victor’s eyes were red. He waved his hand, brushed the sweet potato with honey, and threw it into the bonfire.
“w.a.n.g Cheng, you…”
“Senior sister, are you trying to comfort me? Haha, senior sister is really clumsy. Don’t worry, I won’t give up. Although I’m weak, I have a purpose to continue.
“I’ve never left home. I only brought home with me.”
With that, the air became more and more silent. Only the crackling sound of sparks exploding could be heard.
“Sorry, I didn’t mean to bring it up.”
“No worries.”
Victor shook his head and turned around, no longer facing Nalan Lengling.
After a long while, Lin Yiya and Lin Zihui returned with the beef. Victor quickly got up, took the yak meat, brushed it with honey, salt, wrapped it in banana leaves, and finally buried it in the red-hot charcoal with yellow mud.
“Wait a minute, eat the sweet potato first.”
Victor took out the sweet potatoes, dusted them off, and opened them. They were orange in color.
“Senior sister, do you want to try it?”
“Yes.”
Surprisingly, Nalan Lengling did not refuse. She took the sweet potatoes and took a bite. It was exceptionally sweet.
“Sister, you eat it too. I know you like sweet things, so I added extra honey for you.”
“Okay.”
The eight sweet potatoes were quickly devoured. Under the moonlight and the warmth of the bonfire, everyone gradually opened their hearts and began to chat.
“w.a.n.g Cheng, you just entered the inner sect not long ago, so you don’t understand a lot of things. After this talisman edict is completed, I will inform you of the inner sect rules.”
“Thank you, senior sister.”
“Also, there is one more thing. As the disciples of the great elder, we are often sent on many missions. Unless we have something that must be completed, we are not allowed to refuse. Moreover, sometimes we have to cooperate with the disciples of other elders.
“In the inner sect, including the great elder, there are five elders. Other than the great elder, the other four only have one disciple. The great elder manages the Cultivation Technique Department, Elder Feng manages the Pharmacy Department, Elder Li manages the Miscellaneous Department, Elder w.a.n.g manages the Magical Equipment Department, and Elder Lin manages the Talisman Edict Department. There are also some other things that I’ll tell you in detail when we return.”
“I understand, senior sister.”
“It’s fine. Actually, I’m very happy that master is able to take in two more disciples. Usually, I’m the only one handling the missions issued by the great elder. It’s difficult for me to do it alone. Although you’re still very weak now, I’m sure you’ll become a person who can take charge of things in no time.”
“Don’t worry, senior sister. That day won’t be too far away.”
Victor nodded. He then took the beef out of the charcoal and opened the mud seal. Immediately, a fragrant smell a.s.sailed his nostrils.
“It has been cooked for a long time, so the beef is very soft and well-cooked. It’s very delicious. Senior sister, why don’t you have a taste?”
Victor used the dagger at his waist to cut off a piece of beef. He wrapped it in clean banana leaves and handed it to Nalan Lengling.
Looking at the beef in front of her, Nalan Lengling subconsciously swallowed her saliva.
She took the beef and put it into her mouth, immediately salivating.
The soft and well-cooked beef gradually melted in her mouth. It was very delicious, and even Nalan Lengling looked a little shocked.
“With your skills, it’s a pity if you don’t become a chef.”
“Sigh, if nothing happened back at home, I will definitely want to become a chef and be accompanied by good food every day.”
Victor chuckled and cut off a large piece of beef. He picked it up and tore at it.
Victor’s eating style was very bad, but under such circ.u.mstances, no one was willing to delve into it.
Moreover, looking at Victor’s eating style, everyone’s appet.i.te was somewhat stimulated. One after another, they used their daggers to cut off a piece of meat.
“It’s actually so delicious! w.a.n.g Cheng, to be honest, you can be a cook. I’ll give you a thousand spirit stones every month!”
Leng Wuyou swallowed the beef in his mouth and rolled his eyes.
“Sure. I’ll take care of your food when we get back.”
“It’s a pity that we don’t have any good wine. It’s really a pity.”
“The talisman edict hasn’t been completed yet. You’re not allowed to drink wine.”
Nalan Lengling stopped them. Then, she suddenly realized that the corners of her mouth were full of oil, and her face immediately turned red.
“However… drinking a little bit is still not a big deal.”
“I knew you guys would want to drink. I’ve already prepared it!”
Victor laughed loudly and took out a jar of wine. He slapped open the mud seal, and the fragrance of the wine spread everywhere!
“This is the Hundred Flowers Wine that was brewed exclusively in my village. You won’t be able to drink it anywhere else.”
“It smells really extraordinary. Quick, quick, fill up a cup!”
“Don’t drink so much. Although this Hundred Flowers Wine is fragrant, its alcohol content is not low. One cup is enough. As for the rest, I still want to enjoy it myself.”
Victor filled everyone’s cups, and then drank it all in one go.
