Chapter 333: Barbecue
Meria herself presided over the funerals of the fallen soldiers, and some of the bodies of these soldiers had returned from the battlefield at the Rorschach Pass, but many had not been found.
The place of the funeral was at the Liuye River not far from the city of Bol, where Godin died at the beginning, and the selection of the Bol Guards was also carried out here.
The cold wind was howling, some places of the Liuye River were covered with a thin layer of ice, and the dry firewood collected from all around was densely piled up on the riverbank, and the soldiers who died in battle were cleaned up by their comrades, changed into the most neat military uniforms, and bid farewell to this world with the best faces. The civilians of the city of Boer - relatives of the soldiers also came to the scene, which was the result of Melia's communication with them - the remains were to be cremated due to the lack of an area to be used as a cemetery in the city. The raging fire soon burst into flames, illuminating the entire river beach and reflecting the faces of everyone around them.
After the funeral, Meria called Finn and Galen back together.
As Finn prepares to return to Hamp and Yod to rebuild the city, he pulls the horses out of the stables.
"This kind of large fortress or fortress still needs to be built, the walls of Boer City have not been reinforced, and even the walls of Hamp City will be destroyed under the trebuchets of the Beru, so the city defense of Boer City is definitely not safe, but the time of construction is not now. Merial laughed.
"My lord, are you going to wait until winter and spring before starting the project?" asked Finn, thoughtfully.
"No, it could be soon, or it could be delayed. "While Ron was still around, he arranged for some craftsmen to develop something called cement, which was said to have considerable hardness. Ordinary swords and arrows can't destroy it at all, and some craftsmen in the Boer Territory are already working on it, if this material can appear, then we can start the development of the fortress......"
......
Night is falling.
The adventurer team found a decent clearing in the woods, set up a tent, and the firewood they collected was easily lit by Ron's fire-based magic, and a warm flame dispelled the cold around them.
The team did not move fast due to the need to be wary of griffons, but the day passed, and the vicious griffon did not appear.
"Today's dinner, let's improve the food for everyone. ”
After settling into camp, Jack and White Wolf went hunting in the woods, and they were lucky enough to get some hares, which were not many in abundance in the cold season.
"Who are you going to barbecue?" Jack's eyes looked around, they were not short of dry food, they had carried some from the ship, and some of them had been found later from the carriage that had been attacked by the griffin, except for the lack of meat, and these knights, apparently, also wanted to eat some meat to improve their taste.
The crew looked at each other.
"Then I'll do it. Ron said suddenly.
"Mr. Ron, do you still have a barbecue?" said Jack.
"I'm not very proficient, but I can definitely eat it. Ron smiled.
In my previous life, in addition to developing games, barbecue was a rare hobby for myself, at that time in my office, I even had a small oven on duty, and I was admitted to some beef noodles and bacon slices in my spare time, and since I came to this other world, I have been tired by endless killings and wars, how can I have time to barbecue?
"Then I'll leave it all to you, do you need any help?" Jack handed over a couple of bloody hares.
"This- handling fur guts, cutting pieces of meat, these are going to bother you. Ron lowered his voice, "Mr. Jack, aren't you afraid that the smell of roasting meat will attract that griffon? ”
"Haha, this is one of the purposes of this time, I don't want to be scared all the time, if we can get rid of this griffin sooner, our journey can be speeded up a little. Jack raised his eyebrows: "It's too slow today." ”
Ron was stunned.
Sefera and the White Wolf began to dispose of the hare carcass, and the cut meat was all made to Ron.
I have to say that the meat quality of this hare is still quite good, the fat and thin are moderate, Sefera's scimitar, and the white wolf's short knife, but at this time it has become a kitchen knife for handling cooking. Ron was next to the campfire, temporarily erected an oven with stones, and put a dozen staggered iron branches on it, and the charcoal that appeared after the bonfire burned was quite good fuel, and Ron got the charcoal and some burning branches, and the iron branches soon had enough temperature to roast meat.
"Boss Jack, didn't there be some wine in the car just now, just eating barbecue and not drinking, it's a bit too much. One of the crew members whispered his opinion.
"No, we can't drink alcohol today just for meat. Jack smiled, "You can drink if you want, this meat is not your share." ”
The edible pieces of meat processed on these hares were seven or eight pounds, and among the carriage there were some bamboo skewers and wires, which were just used as tools for skewering meat, and Sefera and the white wolf also sat directly by the campfire, doing their work, while watching Ron start to roast the meat.
"Mr. Ron, I thought you magicians were all soaking in magic books all day, but I didn't expect you to be able to barbecue. Sefera laughed, "What the hell did you do?"
"Soak in magic books all day? haha, that's pretty much it. Ron suddenly laughed and said, "To be honest, when I was in my hometown, my friend said that if I don't achieve anything in the future, I can support my family by selling barbecue alone." ”
Ron said as he looked at Sefera: "Miss Captain, you surprised me, you said that you killed people without ambiguity, but I didn't expect to peel the skin and cut the flesh." ”
At this point, Ron really wasn't joking, when cutting meat, the meat that was cut by the blade along the texture of the muscle tissue tasted much better after roasting, and the ingredients processed by Sefera were obviously better than those of the white wolf, and neither of these two scimitars looked like they were used to cut meat.
"To tell you the truth, it turns out that Sefera's family did this in the royal city of Wishal, how can I say it? I think I should be considered a butcher, but I am quite famous, but then I became an adventurer. Jack said suddenly.
"Jack, don't go too far. Sefera put down her hand and turned to look at Jack.
"Oh, I'm not wrong, that's what you told us, and Mr. Ron isn't an outsider, so there's nothing you can't say. Jack shrugged his shoulders with an innocent expression.
"Hmph, just say it. Sefera snorted lightly: "That's all my grandfather's grandfather's time, this kind of business can't get rich, but it's better to be stable, and at that time, the beef in our store was directly raised in the manor outside Wishal, very fresh, a strange guest came later, bought our meat, and actually paid the bill, my grandfather's grandfather didn't agree to the credit at that time, and the store closed down for this." ”
"This can't be some powerful person in Wishal, right?" said the white wolf's tone with a hint of surprise: "You haven't told us about this!"
"What's there to say about that?" Sefera skewered a piece of meat into a bamboo skewer, perhaps with too much force, and the tip of the bamboo skewer pricked the female knight's hands with blood, "This is one of the princes of Wishal. I wondered, don't these nobles have money, why do they want to covet this little bargain?
Jack coughed lightly a few times, and his old face turned red, but in the firelight, no one noticed: "This can't be helped, people's ** are endless." ”
"Let's just talk about the fjords of death, aren't many wars also caused by **? Whether the motive for starting the war is good or bad. Jack looked at Ron, "Mr. Ron, has there ever been a war in your hometown?"
Ron nodded noncommittally.
Everyone fell silent for a moment, not knowing what to say.
"Hey, I said, isn't it a very pleasant thing to barbecue, why can you still talk about such a heavy topic?" The white wolf quickly coughed twice: "Mr. Ron, you said that your skills are very good, so hurry up and make some results." However, there are not many bamboo sticks and wires here. ”
"Don't worry, I'll be here right away!" Ron laughed, "There's no meat skewers, you can grill just the slices of meat." ”
The people of the Adventure Squad soon discovered Ron's special method of grilling.
It turned out that Ron's barbecue was not burned on an iron frame, but a piece of meat was placed on a cleaned stone slab, and there were not many stones in the woods, but he still got a few very thin stone slabs, and Ron washed the slate clean with the water in his water bladder, and put the cut meat slices on it. Every now and then, look down at the campfire below. After a while, there was a sizzling sound on the stone slab, followed by the tempting aroma of meat.
The smell of the barbecue made everyone can't help but whet their appetites, and they all moved closer to Ron's side. Only the white wolf can be regarded as "sitting still". Eventually, the crew simply stood up, waiting impatiently for the fruits of Ron's labor to come out, and Drasco even lay on the ground, constantly puffing out his cheeks to blow the fire, and the fire was getting bigger and bigger.
"Hmph, if these people in the exile camp can see such a delicious barbecue, it is estimated that they don't need Boss Jack to negotiate, they will tell the information themselves. Delansco laughed.
"I've heard that when there is not enough food on Naga Island, there are tribes that eat human flesh. Bai Lang said matter-of-factly.
Jack said solemnly, "Don't spoil your appetite. ”
The white wolf immediately shut up.
Drasco waited for the charcoal fire, Ron used his sword to constantly turn the rabbit meat, as the sound continued to come out, the aroma became more and more intense, the original bright red meat slices also turned dark red at this time, and some places have turned red, the tempting feeling is really difficult to describe. Sylvie had been standing behind Ron, and at this point she could even hear the crew swallowing saliva.
After a while, the first piece of roast rabbit meat finally appeared, and Ron hesitated for a moment, poked the slice of meat with the blade of his sword, and gave it to Jack, who waved his hand and gave it to Sephira.
"It's still the lady first. ”
"Don't you see I'm busy? You're our captain, you can taste it first, I don't want it if it doesn't taste good." Sefera snorted.
"Then I'll do it. Jack was not polite, and directly grabbed the meat slice with his hand and stuffed it into his mouth.
Everyone waited silently for Jack's reaction, and Ron even more so.
Jack was not afraid of being hot, so he swallowed the meat slices into his stomach in three or two clicks, and then said lightly: "Mr. Ron, it's a pity that you are a magician, why don't you change your career to be a cook for me." ”
Everyone laughed, and a smile appeared on Ron's face.
Jack made a gesture to make them quieter, and everyone hurriedly quieted down, eager to taste the fragrant barbecue that was produced in turn. The white wolf is usually a cold-faced person, killing people without blinking, and in the face of any sudden situation, his face has always been an ancient and unwavering expression, but at this time, he also moved his index finger.
Sefera, who had a hard mouth just now, finally joined the battle under the temptation of deliciousness, and Sephila ate meat without the appearance of a lady, grabbing a piece in one hand and chewing it heavily. Ron's grilled slices of meat are quite good, the meat is quite tender, and if you tear and chew it twice, the meat slices will even slide down the fat into your stomach.
The allure of good food is absolute, and this is true in any world.
"Ron, get rid of all the meat on these skewers, just roast them on the slate. Jack paused slightly, "Can you come over for a moment, I have something to tell you." ”
Ron's heart moved, and he was also very interested in the secrets of this adventurer team.
The crowd moved out of the way, allowing Ron to walk out of the center.
Jack turned and walked straight into the Collar, Ron followed him, and after a while, the fire behind him had become much smaller, and Jack stopped.
"Mr. Ron, are you interested in accepting my offer after this adventure?" Jack got straight to the point, saying his thoughts directly.
"Hire?" Ron was surprised, "Can you tell me what your hire is?"
Jack glanced at Ron deeply: "I can't tell you for the time being, I can only say that my identity with the white wolf is quite special, and the tasks I will carry out in the future will also have a certain relationship with the politics of Wishal." Maybe I'm saying this a little early, but it will also give you some time to think about it. ”
"I'll think about it. Ron nodded solemnly, and in his mind, the scenes he had seen in Bono suddenly appeared. If you want to talk about "Shadow of Exile" with more like-minded people, pay attention to "excellent reading literature" on WeChat, talk about life, and find confidants~
