Chapter 65: The Temptation of Bread

While waiting for the news, Lu Cheng walked around all corners of the village accompanied by Zhuo De and Marven, and of course the most interested was the extremely eye-catching magic defense tower in the village, which was nearly 100 meters high and incompatible with the surrounding environment, of course, because this tower was very important to the humans of the entire Misty Island, even Lu Cheng did not have the opportunity to get close to it, so he could only watch from a distance.

Life on the islanders was extremely difficult, and when it was time to eat, Zhuo De fetched the "luxury food" that was reserved for the guests: a few small pieces of cured rabbit meat and a small plate of unknown dry cakes.

"My lord, this is a dried mushroom cake, it's delicious!" Zhuode introduced.

The player's character also needs to eat food to replenish his physical strength, so Lu Cheng also has to eat regularly, and this game is very realistic, and each food will have a corresponding smell and taste, which is consistent with reality.

Lu Cheng took the dried mushroom cake and looked at it, sniffed it a few times and asked, "What kind of raw material is this made of?" ”

Zhuo De chewed his portion of dried mushroom cake in a few bites, stuffed his mouth with food, and said inarticulately, "Yes...... Belch...... Mudbloods in the swamp...... The edible mushrooms grown are dried and ground into powder...... powder, then add some veggies ......"

Oh, it was made from mushrooms.

Lu Cheng took a bite gently, the taste was a bit like dry flour, and there was a strange taste of astringency.

"Vegetable leaves...... In order to ensure nutrition, a little ...... is added Well...... Earthworm meal. ”

Laugh at~

Lu Cheng squirted all the food in his mouth in one bite.

Are you going to die if you talk about it all at once?

Lu Cheng threw the dried mushroom cake on the plate, took out 10 units of bread from the carry-on space backpack and nibbled on it.

Grunt~

Zhuo De smelled the aroma of bread and swallowed involuntarily.

Lu Cheng glanced at Zhuo De, didn't say anything, and took out 10 units of cooked beef and a large piece of food.

Let you make me eat earthworms! See that I don't want to kill you......

it!

You shouldn't think about that pit daddy's dried mushroom earthworm cake anymore, and you have no appetite in an instant!

Lu Cheng lifted his forehead and sighed!

"Adult ......"

Li Tiezhu looked at the half-eaten dried mushroom cake in his hand, and then at the beef and bread in front of Lu Cheng, and stopped talking.

"Look at what, the soldier won't die if he eats some earthworms, this is high protein, eat it all for me, well, eat me too!"

Lu Cheng pushed his rabbit meat and a small piece of dried mushroom cake in front of Li Tiezhu, completely ignoring the fact that the other party's face was already green.

In the end, for the sake of friendship between the two sides, Lu Cheng took out a few sets of bread and cooked beef to entertain Zhuo De and Marven, and by the way, fed the group of militiamen on the opposite side who couldn't eat anyway after learning the truth about the dried mushroom cakes.

I'm worried about you guys! A soldier should eat everything, why should he be pampered?

Zhuo De and Marven have never eaten such delicious food in their lives.

A pound of bread can be swallowed in 5 seconds, and Lu Cheng is worried that they will choke to death without mentioning it in one breath.

As for what it looks like when eating beef......

Li Tiezhu was ready to draw his sword to protect the lord, and the ferocity made Li Tiezhu worry about whether they would eat the lord raw.

"Haven't you eaten enough?"

Zhao Si couldn't help but ask.

Zhuo De licked his fingers sticking to some grease one by one and muttered to himself: "It's so delicious, I've never eaten such delicious food when I'm so big." ”

Marven was a little more elegant: "The food in the village has always been insufficient, and people will starve to death every year. Although our garrison and garrison are better paid, they can only barely make ends meet. ”

"It's not easy for you." Zhao Si sighed.

"Isn't there bread in your village?" Lu Cheng suddenly thought of a clever plan in his mind, "What kind of meat do you usually eat?" ”

"How can there be bread, I heard that this bread is made of wheat, but there is no wheat on the misty island at all, as for the meat ......" Marven looked at the empty plate, and seemed to be still reminiscing about the taste of beef, "Ordinary villagers can't eat meat a few times a year, the best thing to eat is rabbit meat, and other meats such as rock wolf meat are difficult to eat, because there are not many fishing nets, and fish is rarely supplied." ”

"Can't the senior members of the village eat such delicious food either?" Lu Cheng asked with a smile.

"Well, mushroom cakes are the highest of our common foods here, and most villagers can only eat worse food." Marven replied.

That's easy to do, haha!

Lu Cheng got up and patted Marven on the shoulder.

"Marven, Zhuode, thank you very much for the hospitality of Kolo Village, in order to express my gratitude, I have 2 groups of bread and 2 groups of beef here, you help me send them to all the leaders' homes, and I will take you to eat better food when you come back." After Lu Cheng finished speaking with a smile, he took out the bread and beef and piled them on the table.

"This ......" Zhuo De and Marven looked at each other, always feeling that something was wrong.

"Why, your people treat us with the best food, can't we return the gift?" Lu Cheng deliberately lowered his face.

"Okay, we'll deliver it now." Zhuo De and Marven hesitated and agreed to Lu Cheng.

Zhuo De and Marven each left the house with a big bag on their backs, and Lu Cheng's heart blossomed.

"My lord, what are you?" Li Tiezhu looked at the backs of the two hesitantly.

Lu Cheng pinched his chin: "Do you think that people who eat dried mushroom cakes every day suddenly eat bread and beef, will they be willing to continue to eat dried mushroom cakes?" ”

"I definitely don't want to." Li Tiezhu replied without hesitation, and then immediately figured it out, "My lord! What a clever move! ”

After Lu Cheng left, the council hall was divided into two factions with different opinions, one of which still insisted that Lu Cheng's conditions could not be agreed, while the other faction supported the agreed conditions slightly less.

After a quarrel, neither of the two factions with a similar number of people persuaded anyone, and Patriarch Luo Yi did not join either faction and put on a neutral attitude.

Although the sun is not visible clearly on the Misty Island, the light can still illuminate the ground through the mist, and as the light gradually dims, it is a sign that night is coming.

The group that did not discuss a result had to agree to go home after the meeting resumed tomorrow morning.

Bunier staggered out of the council chamber, only 45 years old, but an advanced age in Misty Island, where the average life expectancy was less than 40. When he was young, he was a farmer and planted edible mushrooms, and later joined the garrison, and he made a great contribution in a conflict with the orcs, but his leg was also seriously injured, so he could only leave the garrison, and Misty Island did not raise idlers, but because he had made meritorious contributions, he successfully became a district representative, and he did it for more than ten years in this position, even if death did not take him away, it was difficult to continue to serve as a district representative at his age.

After chatting with a few other delegates on the same road, Bunier walked towards his home.

He was opposed to agreeing to Lu Cheng's conditions, because he was the oldest and had the highest prestige, and the opposition was also headed by him.

The ancestors of Kolo Village used their blood and courage to keep their clan alive to this day, but now they have to bow down because of a few words from a person who came out of nowhere?

This is ridiculous!

It's ridiculous!

Bunier sneered, Patriarch Luo Yi's attitude of not expressing his stance and maintaining neutrality was actually a statement, he really wanted to agree to the conditions proposed by Lu Cheng.

After following the old patriarch for so many years, he has known Luo Yi very early, and he also knows his character very well, if he wants to refuse, there is no need to let Lu Cheng go back and wait.

It's just to see the attitude of these people.

Therefore, Bunier clarified his point of view as soon as Lu Cheng left, and he absolutely could not agree to Lu Cheng's conditions.

Seven district deputies who were leading the way immediately sided with him, while only three district deputies and three military men supported the agreement to Lu Cheng's conditions, and the number was 8 to 6, with the opposition in the majority.

It can be seen that Luo Yi is not dead yet, otherwise such a comparison of the number of people would be enough to draw conclusions, instead of delaying it until the next morning.

But what's the use of struggling?

Bunier walked through the door.

"The old man is back."

His family, who had been waiting for a while, immediately surrounded him.

"Dad, I heard that there are some people from outside?" Buniel's son asked eagerly.

"Yes, a bunch of ambitious people." Bunier sat down, "Why does it smell so fragrant in the house today?" ”

"The old man's nose is still as smart as ever." Buniel's wife laughed, "There's something very delicious in the house today, guess what?" ”

"Grandma, grandma, I know, it's dried mushroom cake and mushroom soup!" Buniel's little granddaughter cheered happily.

Buniel's wife smiled mysteriously: "Wrong, you will never guess!" ”

"Then what are you waiting for, hurry up and bring dinner, the children are hungry." Bunier was not in a good mood and immediately blew his beard and glared.

"Okay, okay, I'm not going to sell it."

Soon, the dinner served in a clay tray was served.

The plate is full of golden yellow "cakes", the color is golden and shiny, the surface is loose and porous, and there is an attractive fragrance.

The Bunier family stared at the food on the table in a daze, and no one dared to move.

"Old woman, what kind of food are these? How come I haven't seen it? ”

Bunier was puzzled, for it was the first time he had seen food like this in all his life.

"Taste it, and I'll tell you."

Each took a piece of bread, and the children were the most daring and couldn't wait to bite into it.

"Wow! Mom, this is so delicious, hmm~ too delicious. After taking a bite, the children's eyes lit up, and they couldn't wait to stuff the rest into their mouths, and then reached out and snatched a few pieces from the clay pan, and stuffed them into their mouths.

And several adults also fell immediately after taking a small bite, and the pounds of bread on the table were swept away in the blink of an eye.

"It's so full." A few of the children were fed up, and the adults were no better.

"Madame's craftsmanship is good, and being able to make dried mushroom powder into this flavor is definitely at the level of a god-level chef." Bunier pinched the crumbs from his beard and licked them into his stomach.

"What nonsense, this is the smell of dried mushrooms?" Buniel's wife was overjoyed, "It's called bread, you know, bread!" It was sent by Zhuode. ”

"What!" Bunier slapped the case, "Sent by Zhuode?" Didn't he follow those outsiders! ”
