Chapter Twenty-Eight: Replenishing the Brain
......
Houses in the cols and forests, surrounded by the wind.
Winter is either a little cold or very cold!
Moreover.
It's still a day of scattered snowflakes.
OK.
This stone villa has been sealed and reinforced by the "turn mud into stone" spell, unlike some stone and yellow mud houses, which are always a little ventilated.
Therefore, as soon as the doors and windows of the villa are closed tightly, it can block all the wind chill outside.
After Shaman Chen went out to prepare the hot pot soup for the evening, Siggri practiced the Yijin Twelve Styles for a while, and then felt that the heat that had just broken through had subsided, and when she walked down to see if Teacher Chen wanted to make a personal move.
Just in time, I saw the door open, bringing in a gust of wind and snow.
The first person to come in, of course, was just coming back from visiting the shop in the town, the nominal elder brother who was not very enthusiastic about martial arts, and usually even looked at her with a thief's face, and only knew that he had fallen into the eyes of the money-Eddie.
But then someone came in, and at first she thought it was Harrison, the baron's nephew who occasionally came over to eat and drink.
When I looked at it, it was the little wizard Vasily, who had just arrived and had been in a mess with them.
Although her impression of this person is not as disgusting as the other two, since they are all mixed together, it is also a raccoon dog.
Siggly gave Eddie a casual glance and nodded to Vasily, as if he had said hello and was about to leave.
"Is Master Chen Xuyuan here?~ I'll ...... What kind of food does this taste like!? how does it feel so good! Suck! As soon as I smell it, I feel a little hungry. ”
Vasily involuntarily swallowed his saliva and asked in surprise.
When he asked, Higrid also felt a strange smell.
Several people immediately followed the smell and prepared to go into the kitchen to investigate, but before they could enter, they were immediately blocked by Chen Shaman with a hot high-legged pot with one hand.
He glanced at Vasily by the way, and said with a slight smile: "Yo~ You are Harrison's classmate, you just came, by the way, let's try my delicious wolf bone hot pot together!"
Seeing that there was something delicious to eat, several people hurriedly helped the master bring all the fragmented dishes inside to the table outside.
But.
When I opened the lid, I saw that there were some thin cut sea bass, sauerkraut, three yellow chickens, thick soup treasure, Qianzhang, tofu, beef tendon, mutton liver, cucumber, rice cake, Chinese cabbage, bitter chrysanthemum, pig blood, quail eggs, enoki mushrooms, shiitake mushrooms, beef, green bamboo shoots, potatoes, lotus root, kelp, etc., a total of more than 20 kinds of dazzling variety of fresh meat and vegetarian dishes.
But Higrid couldn't help but ask dumbly, "Teacher, why aren't these dishes cooked?"
"It's right if it's not cooked!"
Eddie hurriedly laughed, and immediately wanted to show his erudition, pointing to the hot pot that was still bubbling with charcoal, and explained to his teacher by the way: "This way of eating is to take raw food and eat it directly in the hot soup, which tastes good and likes." Teacher, please sit down first! Come, you all sit down and eat!"
"Well, another year is almost over! Next week is the New Year's Day! Let's celebrate in advance. “
After speaking.
Chen Shaman also took care of himself first, picked up the chopsticks, put a piece of meat in it, scalded it, then dipped it in some sauce, and put it in his dish to eat.
The others also tasted the same thing, because the wolf bone soup was full of various spices, some bone marrow and minced meat were simmered in the soup, and the whole room was full of spicy bone broth flavor.
The food taken out of the spicy red soup fully absorbs the spicy flavor of the base, and the surface is covered with thick animal fat.
The taste is slightly creamy, but the fresh, tender ingredients really melt in your mouth, making you want to stop.
Served with hot pot's seafood and shrimp sauce and sesame oil dipping sauce, the soaked food looks more full of soup.
As soon as everyone saw and smelled it, they swallowed their saliva on the ground.
After tasting it again, I felt that it was very delicious, and immediately threw off my arms, chopsticks and spoons and both hands went into battle at the same time, and shook my head to eat until I was sweating profusely.
Even Vasily forgot to mention the purpose of his visit for the time being.
It wasn't until she was eight or nine minutes full that Siggri seemed to be very satisfied and happily asked, "Teacher, what kind of animal meat are these two plates? Why are they so fresh!"
"Oh, that's all the brains of the werewolf shaman and the bloody hand warrior last time, and the soup base in the pot is also made of werewolf bones, which has been frozen by me in the basement with a spell, and I saw that there was still a lot left after the experiment, and it was still very fresh, so I took it out and made this pot of soup. “
Shaman Chen glanced at her and replied very casually.
Higrid listened.
The expression on her face, which had been eating happily, immediately seemed to be frozen in concrete.
Others seemed to be choked with fright, and she wanted to vomit but didn't vomit, and her face was a little ugly.
"But it's a wolf after all~~ human brains! It's ......"
Although she wanted to say that eating brains was too disgusting, after all, it was a little disrespectful to the teacher, so she swallowed the words at the last moment.
When Vasily heard it, he also paused his chopsticks, but his reaction was not so big, but he didn't pick up the two plates of fresh "wolf brains" again, but instead went to pick up some light ingredients of tofu and vegetables, and after continuing to blanch them like an assembly line, he sent them straight to his mouth.
"Oh, young people open their minds, aren't many spellcasters who like food often eat pig brains, sheep brains, and monkey brains!? Anyway, they are not human beings, don't you add so many bad associations to food? Young people should eat more and replenish their brains, this thing is actually very effective for the caster to improve his brain power, and the meat of this werewolf is actually no different from pigs, sheep, chickens and ducks!"
When Shaman Chen saw the expression of the second disciple, he immediately knew that she couldn't eat it, so he waved his palm casually and enlightened Sigrid.
"I~ I feel a little full......"
The words are not finished yet.
Siggley hurriedly ran out with her chest clutched, and it seemed that the dishes in front of her might have been eaten in vain.
Taking advantage of this distraction, Vasily immediately took the opportunity to ask, "Master Chen, I heard that most of the spells of shamans are taught by ancestral spirits, and most of them do not consume much spell materials?"
This is because the nature spirits are in harmony with the natural environment of the region, and the spells that are comprehended and taught to the shaman are also close to the power of the natural environment, which can greatly reduce the requirements of ordinary ordinary spell casting materials. However, some powerful spells also need the cooperation of the Great Spirit, and in order for the Great Spirit to cooperate, it is necessary to provide mana for the Great Spirit through a large number of livestock sacrifices, and even human and animal blood sacrifices with captives, which is actually to replace some spell casting materials with flesh and blood sacrifices. “
