Chapter 40: Mana Roast

Before you know it, night has fallen.

The icy cold wind began to blow in the quiet wilderness, and the lush grass swayed with it, making a "rustling" sound like a wheat field. In fact, the temperature difference between the canyon during the day and the canyon at night is very large, during the day, the canyon can be as warm as spring, but at night, it will become as cold as winter.

At this time, the wild area of Nuoda is quiet, most of the animals, before the night has returned to the nest early to avoid the cold, the cold night wind, has become the protagonist of this dangerous place, it is like a naughty child, regardless of the complaints and low voices of those cold-phobic animals, wantonly whistling and running in the wild area, covering the already cool night with a colder quilt.

But in such a cold and dim wilderness, there is a cave on a certain mountain with a bright halo of light, looking from afar, like a bright light in the dark night, the warm air flow keeps rushing towards the outside of the cave, forming a sharp contrast with the cold world outside.

Many rat animals gathered at the warm cave entrance to keep warm, they stared at the round eyes, and looked into the bright cave from time to time, as if they were curious why the wild area, which has rarely been set foot in all the year round, had two uninvited guests today.

Sitting on the soft fur blanket, Wang Yao stared at the group of small animals at the entrance of the cave with a malicious expression, and suddenly smiled and came up with a bad idea: "Luna, how about roasting them to eat by the way?" ”

Luna, who was grilling meat slices by the bonfire, was stunned for a moment when she heard this, then she looked at the small animal at the entrance of the cave, and glared at Wang Yao angrily: "Can you bear to eat such a cute squirrel?" Besides, there are so many slices of meat here, are you afraid that you won't be able to eat enough? ”

It turned out that they were called weas, and they did look very cute, very similar to the pudding rats on the earth, but Wang Yao still couldn't help muttering: "I'm not hungry, haven't you been roasted for so long?" Why don't I do it? ”

"You're wounded, so I'd better come." Luna repeated what she had said four times as she sprinkled the seasoned salt juice onto the slices of meat stuck in the branches.

Well, this Nizi's character is such a tendon, deciding good things, even if others intervene, it won't change. In desperation, Wang Yao could only endure the hunger in his stomach and watch Luna's slow barbecue.

Soon, a rich smell of meat began to permeate the cave, and the aroma lingered between Wang Yao's snorts like substance, mixed with an appetizing faint salty taste, just smelling the taste, he couldn't help but salivate.

"It smells so good!" I don't know if it's because he is too hungry, Wang Yao squatted up regardless of his image, if he added a tail that swayed from side to side at this time, he looked like a puppy waiting to be fed.

"Poof." Seeing Wang Yao's appearance, Luna couldn't help but laugh: "Your posture really looks like a pet I used to have." ”

Wang Yao was stunned, is he talking about "Da Bai"? Just as he was about to ask the girl what her pet was, a piece of barbecue with a steaming surface appeared in front of him.

"Hungry ghost, eat quickly." Luna looked at Wang Yao amusedly.

I saw a palm-sized piece of meat, interspersed with two layers with a clean branch, so as to better fix it, but to Wang Yao's surprise, there was no trace of burnt ash on the meat slice roasted by the bonfire, but as if it had been fried on an iron plate, the whole presented an attractive wheat gold, and the crystal grease adhered to it, reflecting an almost amber-like texture in the firelight, just looking at the appearance made people very appetizing!

Wang Yao has always been quite confident in his cooking skills, but at this time, looking at the barbecue slices in Luna's hand, he is very calm and willing to bow down, at least if he comes, he will never be able to grill such an ornamental barbecue slices.

Driven by hunger, Wang Yao reached out and grabbed the lower end of the branch, took the barbecue slices, and couldn't wait to send the meat slices into his mouth, and gently took a bite, the meat was more tender than he imagined, and as he chewed, the rich meat juice also fully spread to every taste bud part of his mouth, and the rich meat juice was as delicious as the bone marrow of the cylinder that had just been boiled out of the pot.

"Delicious!"

"It's delicious." Luna looked at Wang Yao with a smile: "This is my own invention of the barbecue method, the mana is covered on the meat slices, not only can avoid the meat slices from being roasted, but also let the umami of the meat not be covered up by fireworks, of course, salt fruit is also a very important seasoning, compared to coarse coarse salt, the juice of salt fruit is easier to penetrate into the roast meat, and it can also be more evenly distributed to the surface of the whole meat slice, so that the taste will be more solid and mellow." ”

Mana roast? Do you still have such an operation for grilling meat?

Although it was the first time to eat the food made by Luna, Wang Yao still knelt down, how boring was this Nizi to come up with such a bizarre barbecue method? He couldn't help but wonder if Luna's upgraded skill points were all given to [Life Skills]!

But in any case, this dinner was very satisfying to Wang Yao, it was also the most down-to-earth and delicious hot food he had eaten since he came to the canyon battlefield, and he was eating alone the whole time, and when the feeling of fullness came, the meat slices that Luna brought back were basically bottomed out.

"Uh, I'm sorry, I ate it by myself." Wang Yao scratched his head a little embarrassed, he had just eaten so much that he didn't notice that Luna was busy roasting him the whole time, and he hadn't eaten at all.

"It's okay, I don't eat much, and if you like to eat, I'm already happy." Luna pursed her lips and smiled, as docile as ever.

"That's great." Wang Yao took out the fruit brought back by the girl very heartlessly, and began to nibble on it while watching Luna intersperse the last remaining piece of meat on the branch.

"Then again, Luna, how did you get on the road? Is it preparing to destroy the first defense tower of the Wei State? ”

"Huh? How do you know? Luna looked back in surprise.

"Well, I'll guess." Wang Yao shrugged his shoulders, hiding his merit and fame.

He is a little-known soldier in the army of Shu Kingdom, and the ghost knows if the high-level officials of Shu State arranged for Luna to come over because they accepted his proposal? If there are other generals who put forward plans that happen to be the same as their own, then won't they become shameful villains who rob others of their achievements?

In these years, only by being low-key can you protect yourself.

"You're amazing, you can guess it." Luna smiled at Wang Yao, but didn't pay attention to Tao Hui in Wang Yao's eyes, but put her gaze back on the barbecue on the bonfire: "As you guessed, this time I am going to destroy the Wei State's defense tower with the main army. But actually, I was very nervous all the time. ”

"Nervous about what?" Wang Yao couldn't help but ask.

"This is the first time I've led a troop line, and it's still the main force, obviously I was only responsible for supporting the three roads before." Luna smiled helplessly: "I'm afraid I'll mess things up, the high-level people of Shu seem to value my actions this time, if I accidentally mess up, I guess I'll be disliked by others again....."

"How could you have such an idea?" Wang Yao was a little speechless, he couldn't understand that Luna, who coexisted with both appearance and strength, would actually feel inferior: "You don't have to think too much, it's actually very simple, now there are no heroes stationed on the road of Wei, what you have to do is to lead the line to eliminate the black soldiers, and then take advantage of the fact that the Wei side has no time to return to help, and quickly destroy their defense towers, but you should pay attention to the fact that when attacking the defense tower, you must first let the line enter the attack range of the enemy defense tower, let the soldiers attract the firepower of the defense tower, and then you take the opportunity to ......"

In the middle of speaking, Wang Yao suddenly stopped, because he found that Luna was looking at him in a daze: "Is there something wrong?" ”

"No, no." Luna subconsciously turned her head away, her eyes seemed to be a little fluttering, "It's just that I feel, after coming to the canyon battlefield, you seem to have changed a lot, speaking of which, you must not be easy to be chased by the Black Armor Army in the wild area for two days alone, right?" ”

Thinking of his experience in the wild area in the past two days, Wang Yao immediately fell silent, clicked, and took a big bite of the fruit, the sweet juice sandwiched the hard flesh, just like his days in the wild area in the past two days.

"Also...... Nothing, that's all. ”

He was suddenly reluctant to talk about the experience of the past two days, perhaps for many soldiers, this would be a proud deed, but for him, what he had done in the wild area in the past two days was actually unacceptable to him from the bottom of his heart.

The picture of a certain early morning unconsciously floated in his mind, the young black soldier who was killed by his own arrow in order to save his companions, he was very uncomfortable in his heart, he suddenly remembered Mulan's lines, too far away from home will forget his hometown, and too many people will forget himself......

I used to think that this line was super handsome, but now that I look back, I feel that this sentence is actually full of pain and bitterness that others can't understand.

"I ...... Is there something wrong? Seeing that Wang Yao's face was very pale and unnatural, Luna asked a little crampedly.

"It's nothing, you're thinking too much, hurry up and eat." Wang Yao shook his head lightly, revealing a faint smile. "Let's rest early after eating, I have to rush back to the road tomorrow, the longer it drags on, the more accidents will happen."
