Chapter Eighty-Three: Eating
For two whole months, Liu Wenfei and Lin have been confined in the Elven Palace, and the outside is strictly guarded by the Elven Guards, and if they want to go out, they must be under the supervision of the guards. During this time, he told Lin everything about the human world, and he also had a deeper understanding of the Far North region, and nothing else.
One is out of curiosity, and the other is that staying in the palace is really boring, Liu Wenfei asked to leave the palace many times, but the elf king refused, but he would bother the elf king almost every day, so that the elf king finally got impatient and allowed Liu Wenfei and Lin to leave the palace, but they needed to be supervised by guards.
Liu Wenfei agreed to the Elf King's request, as long as he can leave the palace, he will monitor it, anyway, he has no secrets to speak of, the important thing is that Liu Wenfei can be suffocated in these two months, the food in the Elf Palace is really difficult to compliment, in the past two months, he has basically eaten all meat, and the workmanship is rough, "If you can't find a better cook in the big Far North Region?"
"That's not the case, although there are not as many cooks here as you are, but not all of them are so unbearable. Lynn explained.
"Then why is the level of the cook in the palace so good?"
"You don't know this, this is a rule left by the ancestors of the royal family, in order to prevent future generations of kings from indulging in pleasures, the first elven kings stipulated that their descendants should not enjoy the luxury of the domain, including food. ”
"I see, it seems that it's not good to be the king here, I can't even eat a good meal!"
Out of the palace, Liu Wenfei took Lin to find a restaurant to eat, to say that in the palace, the elf king did not treat the two of them badly, but as Lin said, the food in the palace is too much ecology, so that he lost his appetite when he saw the food, and he was very glad that he did not starve to death in the palace because of food.
Due to the cold climate in the entire Far North, it is extremely unsuitable for plant growth, so the elves usually take hunting meat as the main food, and vegetarian food is very rare, Liu Wenfei has only eaten a few times in the palace The vegetarian food brought by the Soul Scatterer from the human world, although the taste is not very good, but after all, it is not so original.
Although the elves are not very particular about food, but the utensils they make are ingenious, famous in the Three Realms, and some of the utensils also have a certain aura, he has seen those strange works in the palace, among which the elves are the best at all kinds of weapons, and the long bow is the most, plus a special blood-drinking arrow, a hundred meters away can pierce three inches of city bricks.
However, because the Emperor of Heaven restricted the range of activities and communication of the elves, these bows and arrows could only be used in the elves, and the range was also limited to the extreme north, and because there was no foreign invasion, the elves could only use these bows and arrows to hunt, which made Liu Wenfei feel a little tyrannical.
For more than two months, Liu Wenfei and Lin learned the skills of controlling the long bow, although they can't wear Yang in 100 steps, but they can also hit six or seven shots in 100 meters, which makes him feel very happy, although he has left the Qi Control Division, and he has no talent for Qi Control and no interest in it, it seems that his career in the Qi Control Division is coming to an end, but it is still very good to be a good shooter, which is also the only thing he is interested in in the palace.
After a big meal, Liu Wenfei proposed to go hunting in the Elven Forest and test his archery skills by the way.
"And what about them?" Lin looked at the two guards not far away, and the two elves looked at them directly.
"It's simple. Liu Wenfei quietly took out a paper bag from his arms.
"What is this?"
"You'll find out later. ”
Although Lin didn't know how Liu Wenfei made the elven guards eat the food with sweat medicine, she was sure that the two elven guards would not wake up in two days.
After this period of communication, Lin found that she began to be a little inseparable from Liu Wenfei, although Liu Wenfei is not very old, and sometimes there are some childish behaviors, but Lin feels that as long as she is with Liu Wenfei, there will be infinite surprises.
But before going to the Elven Forest, Liu Wenfei first went to a shop and bought some condiments, which made Lin feel very puzzled, because she had never seen these condiments before.
"I'll surprise you then. Liu Wenfei said mysteriously.
After searching for most of the day, Liu Wenfei squatted on the ground, threw the long bow to the ground, and worked for most of the day, and he shot a few trees by himself, and he didn't even hunt a rabbit. "It's really in vain these days?" Liu Wenfei complained.
Lin smiled and patted Liu Wenfei on the shoulder, picked up the long bow, looked around, and then pulled out a blood-drinking arrow from behind him, and shot it towards the top of a large tree, only to hear a terrible cry, and then a wild hoof fell.
Liu Wenfei hurriedly ran over, grabbed the two legs of the wild hoof, and shouted, "Hit!
"How do you know there's a wild hoof?"
Lin smiled and said: "Intuition, a good hunter must not only have excellent archery skills and speed, but also have an intuition for the prey, which needs to be practiced slowly and in a hurry." ”
Liu Wenfei looked at Lin with admiration again, and his admiration arose.
Lin ran over with a smile, and Liu Wenfei nodded excitedly with the wild hoof: "It should be enough to eat." ”
Lin was surprised, "Have a meal?"
As the daughter of the city lord of Gushi City, Lin has lived a worry-free life since she was a child, although she eats every day, she has never thought about where her food comes from, and when she heard that Liu Wenfei was going to eat the wild hooves she had beaten, Lin couldn't help but be a little surprised.
Seeing Lin's reaction, Liu Wenfei immediately understood Lin's thoughts, and shook the wild hoof in front of Lin: "You won't dare, right?"
Looking at Liu Wenfei's proud appearance, how could Lin endure being looked down upon by Liu Wenfei, who was younger than herself, and said: "Who said I don't dare, just eat!"
Liu Wenfei found a dirt slope, dug a small square pit on the soil slope, and then supported a few blood-drinking arrows on the pit, and found a pile of dry firewood to put in the pit. Liu Wenfei made a few small cuts on the wild hoove's body with a dagger, stuffed the seasoning he bought before into the wild hoove's belly, and then smeared the wild hoove's whole body with mud, lit the firewood and put the processed wild hoop on the blood-drinking arrow.
Liu Wenfei skillfully operated everything, Liu Wenfei thought to himself, the skills he went out to study when he was a child finally came in handy in a few days, and he was finally not beaten by his mother in vain. Lin, a pampered golden branch and jade leaf, had never seen this formation, and could only look at Liu Wenfei curiously from the side, with a kind of worship in his eyes.
The sky is getting dark, although the sun has not yet set, but due to the dense elven forest, the sky has darkened a lot at this time, Liu Wenfei patted a layer of soil on the surface of the wild hoove, and suddenly a strong fragrance wafted into his nose, Lin smelled the fragrance, this fragrance was something he had never seen before.
Liu Wenfei then pulled a wild hoop leg and handed it to Lin, looking at the white and fragrant wild hoof leg, Lin changed her previous resistance and opened her mouth to bite. "Never had such good food. Lin said as she ate.
Liu Wenfei looked at Lin proudly: "You elves simply don't know anything about food, and no matter how good the ingredients are, they have been ruined by you." ”
Just when the two of them were eating wild hooves unscrupulously, suddenly a noisy sound came from behind the dirt slope, Liu Wenfei hurriedly extinguished the fire with soil, wiped the oil from the corner of his mouth, and pulled Lin to secretly lie on the dirt slope to watch.
I saw dozens of carts slowly passing under the dirt slope, with hundreds of elven guards on both sides, covered with a layer of black cloth, Liu Wenfei recognized at a glance that this was the elven king's personal guard.
Liu Wenfei didn't understand why these elf king's guards appeared here, and the things pulled on the car also attracted Liu Wenfei's attention, and the ruts left two deep ruts in the soft ground, showing that the goods on the car were very heavy.
The convoy slowly drove deep into the forest, and after the convoy passed, Liu Wenfei pulled Lin to secretly follow behind the convoy.
Not long after, the convoy stopped in front of a manor. "What kind of place is this?" asked Liu Wenfei in a low voice.
Lin looked at it and shook her head: "This should be in the deepest part of the forest, usually few people come, and I have never heard of such a large manor here." ”
From the outside, the entire manor is twice as big as the Jade Dragon Villa, "It seems that there are really a lot of secrets in the Elven Forest." Liu Wenfei slowly approached the convoy.
At this time, Liu Wenfei found that two people came out of the manor, which made Liu Wenfei very surprised. Liu Wenfei looked at the two people carefully and confirmed that they were not the Soul Scattering Clan, and Liu Wenfei could determine from their clothing and behavior that this was the Human Race.
Liu Wenfei has always thought that in addition to Tianwen, he is the only human race in the far north, to be exact, only Tianwen is not a human race, no human race can live more than five hundred years, now it seems that he is wrong, and judging from the actions of those two people, they seem to be very familiar with this place, and they are also very familiar with the people who escort the cart, and they should often go in and out of here.
The Far North is not allowed to be set foot in by the Terrans, this is probably just a pretense, not only the Terrans here, but also their relationship with the elves is very close.
One of them had a blue sword at his waist, and after a few words of conversation with the captain of the guard, the man with the blue sword led the convoy towards the back of the manor. The other led the guards into the manor.
Liu Wenfei decided to sneak into the hospital to find out, although Lin was worried that this move was likely to cause unnecessary trouble, but because Liu Wenfei insisted, Lin still decided to follow Liu Wenfei to take this risk, although he usually seems to be childish sometimes, but at critical times, he can always show mature and sophisticated behavior, which also makes Lin feel a sense of security from the heart.
As night fell, in a thick layer of fog shrouded in the entire elven forest, through the blue and white lanterns hanging at the gate of the manor, the two could vaguely identify the location of the gate.
Because Liu Wenfei had already experienced the power of the golden wire flying nets arranged by the elves on the wall before, he was extra careful this time, and Lin was very familiar with the elves' mechanisms, so it was not difficult to climb over the wall.
Lin deliberately chose a battlement, which was the place where the organs within the control range, so there was no mechanism, but he didn't tell Liu Wenfei about it, this was a taboo for the elves, and Lin didn't dare to disobey.
The two quietly jumped over the fence and into the courtyard. But to the surprise of the two, the fog in the night of the Elven Forest was too big, and the darkness of the night made it impossible for the two to identify the location at all, let alone find the traces of the convoy, and if they ran around, they would probably be caught by the guards.
These can be anxious Liu Wenfei, but for this situation, Lin is also helpless, although Lin often goes in and out of the forest, but never knew that there would be such a fog in the depths of the forest at night, let alone come here.
Liu Wenfei could only hold a dagger and grope forward vigilantly, and Lin followed closely behind him, and the blood-drinking arrow in his hand was always ready to be fired.
