Chapter 781: On the Right Track (Part I)
At this point, Granty interrupted Login slightly (of course, the part he said also omitted that he was a time-traveler).
"Why does it sound like a folk legend?"
Of course, she didn't question Luo Ming, but she still felt full of slots, and couldn't help but start complaining: "I remember hearing a poet sing a similar story:
A chef who was framed, fired, and had his leg broken passed on his craft to a street kid who took care of him.
The wanderer happened to receive a young nobleman, who praised his craftsmanship and invited him to be his retinue, and after several visits, this benefactor held a prominent position in the duke's court, and the wanderer became the duke's courtier......
I haven't heard the whole story, but I guess he's going to do something to the Duke with his original benefactor......"
Hearing this story, Luo Ming was also noncommittal: "Isn't my current experience legendary enough?"
From a penniless wanderer, to the Great Swordsman, the Earl of the County Guard, the Conqueror of Mount Carlo, and the Star of Losack...... In the past few years, these few things I have done have left a mark in the history of the world.
And the people who sing my poems can be found outside of Vansheishire. ”
"Yes, yes, look at what you can. Won't you be flying to the sky in a few years?"
Granty teased her completely casually, but Luo Ming raised his eyebrows first, glanced at her, and was silent for a few seconds before continuing:
"If you can become a legend in a few years, you have to thank God. ”
Flying into the sky, although it can also be understood as being promoted by God's beloved believers and soaring in the day, in Luo Ming's context, there is only one explanation left.
didn't expect Luo Ming to confide in his sincerity at this time, Grant wanted to say something, but he didn't know where to start: "You...... In short, I will always follow you.
Okay, let's not talk about this kind of lofty things, there is still time, so let's finish Miss Lis's story first. ”
Seeing that she was already mentally prepared for this, Luo Ming sighed in his heart that it was in vain that he had worked hard for so many years, and then continued to tell the story.
————————————————————
In the days that followed, Luo Ming tried boldly, carefully verified, mastered the kitchen of this world step by step, tried some new dishes, and all in all, at least Lisi ate quite happily.
However, this is only the first step.
If Lisi is a rich and wealthy nobleman with a group of servants in the family, maybe with this alone, Luo Ming can be hired logically, at least a place to live, a mouthful of food, it is not a problem.
However, Lisy herself used to be a poor cook, but she did not hire a cook for a long time, and she did not hire even a maid to live in such a large house, which proves that although she is relatively wealthy, she has no intention of wasting money in this regard.
Cooking is just a stepping stone, or maybe it's just a plus, and he needs something else.
When the injury healed, Luo Ming began to exercise for the first time in a long time - after a simple fist and foot kung fu, and after moving his body, he took a wooden stick.
This stick was picked up when he was buying firewood two days ago, and he himself used a small axe to handle firewood a little, and it became a rough wooden sword.
The density of wood is lower than that of steel, so this wooden stick is much thicker than the real sword, and some places have also been adjusted, and its weight and center of gravity are basically not much different from the real sword, Luo Ming's rough estimate is about 1.6 kilograms, far from being comparable to the sword path bamboo sword.
In fact, considering the air resistance, this thing might be a little more laborious to use than a real sword of the same weight.
However, in Luo Ming's hands, it can also be used as an arm.
At this time, Lisi happened to be tired of experimenting, and was leisurely drinking tea in the backyard, and her eyes were gradually attracted by Luo Ming's swordsmanship.
"It's not vindictive, but you've been holding on for a long time......" She couldn't help but exclaim before she was about to go back upstairs.
When she went downstairs, Luo Ming was already practicing, and he hadn't stopped until now—not even his movements had slowed down much.
Although she doesn't know much about swordsmanship, she still has a basic understanding of human physical strength...... Luo Ming's endurance and physical strength are probably better than those of some people who have just developed a fighting spirit.
Of course, this is not the reason for her to hire Luo Ming, and she doesn't need any thugs or bodyguards now.
But when Luo Ming proposed to "go to the forest to collect firewood and help collect some experimental materials by the way", she did not object, and took out a sword from the storage room and lent it to him.
Although there are people in the town who specialize in collecting firewood and cutting firewood and selling it, the price is not expensive, but if you can do it yourself, free of charge is definitely the most economical.
The nearby forests are said to belong to a nobleman, but the nobleman did not send a forest ranger to monitor and collect taxes, in fact, it was free.
One of the things that discourages most people from collecting and chopping wood is that there are wild beasts in the forest, and occasionally magical beasts.
When ordinary people encounter a wolf, they are at risk of being bitten or even killed, and when they encounter a monster, most of the time they can only find pieces of minced meat.
And Luo Ming's injuries are almost healed, and now that he has a weapon, it is not a problem for him.
Liss had also seen it before, he could get rid of the crazy demon lizard with just a broken sword, if it wasn't for not not knowing the body structure of the demon lizard enough, if he was attacked by a sneak attack, it is estimated that he would not even be injured in the end.
It is said that there are more dangerous magical beasts in the forest than the magic lizard, but at least they are difficult to see in the outer circle of the forest, and with Luo Ming's ability, even if he encounters them, it is not difficult to escape.
In short, after telling her some precautions, Lisi sent Luo Ming out of the door with confidence.
Two and a half hours later, Luo Ming returned with firewood and experimental materials collected "by the way", and then began to prepare dinner.
Of course, the little money saved by the firewood is a small amount of money, and the experimental materials are the focus - mainly some wild herbs, stones, soil, and a few small animals in the forest, and the amount is definitely not as simple as "taking a little by the way".
Generally speaking, these materials are easy to collect in the deeper part of the forest, and it is easy for ordinary people to get the wrong kind, so in the past, Lise had to go deep into the forest herself, or hire adventurers and mercenaries - they were not cheap.
Lisi originally just thought that Luo Ming would observe the surroundings while chopping and collecting firewood, and it would be nice if she could bring back a little material...... Seeing Luo Ming bring back so many materials, she was also taken aback.
