After explaining to Draff, he finally gave up the idea of asking Xiangling to help endorse Qingquan Town's meat products.

Immediately afterward, Xiangling smelled a strong smell of meat, and involuntarily drifted over, and saw a chubby woman roasting meat in the yard.

This meat aroma is really very strong, not inferior to the vegetable aroma of Wanmintang at all, and the gluttonous worms in everyone's stomachs are hooked.

"Xiangling, I want to eat barbecue steak, you can buy one for me." Lu Shiyuan smacked his lips and commanded.

"Okay, Brother Lu." Xiangling also had this idea, "It just so happens that I also want to try this chef's cuisine." ”

"Paimon wants it too." A little guy raised his hand in the air.

"Me, so am I." Ying also whispered.

"Okay, okay, I'll buy it."

Xiangling nodded in response and ran to the female chef named Bullock, wanting to buy a few barbecue steaks.

However, I was told that these had already been booked, and I wanted to eat them until seven days later.

This made everyone feel a little regretful.

Lu Shiyuan touched his chin and said to Bullock: "Otherwise, we just hunted a batch of very fresh meat, the quality is super good, how about we exchange three pieces of meat for one piece of meat for you." ”

"This ......" Bullock's resolute stance suddenly wavered a little when he heard this, for a person who loves flesh, such an offer is really difficult to refuse.

"Xiangling." Lu Shiyuan glanced at the girl.

The latter suddenly understood, unwrapped the cloth bag, and presented a large and beautiful steak in front of Bullock.

Finally, Bullock relented, "Alright then, it's a big deal I'll work overtime." ”

Four steaming kebabs in hand.

However, Xiangling was left behind because Bullock recognized the Liyue Harbor chef and wanted to communicate with her.

The others couldn't wait to take the steak to the table in the courtyard and eat it happily.

"It's delicious." The steak entered his mouth, and Paimon let out a series of exclamations.

"Be careful of burning." Ying reminded.

"But speaking of which, if we had cooked it ourselves, we would have been able to make twelve pieces of meat for Brock into twelve such delicious steaks." Paimon felt a little regretful again, "Shi Yuan, why do you want to exchange three pieces for one?" It feels like a loss.

Are you being generous to others? ”

"There is so much meat, if you don't dispose of it quickly, it will be bad, and the rotten meat can only be fed to dogs." Lu Shiyuan said slowly, "Moreover, the chef's skill is very valuable, and it sounds like a loss at first glance, but for us, it is earned." ”

"You have a point, but ......," Paimon thought for a moment, and finally confirmed, "Sure enough, it's because it's someone else's stuff that you don't feel sorry for." ”

"Of course." Lu Shiyuan admitted without hesitation, "Besides, Xiangling only loves food, and it's nothing to pay more." ”

"What a bad character...... Paimon thought to himself, but he didn't dare say it.

While the three of them were eating barbecue steaks, Xiangling had a fierce quarrel with Bullock.

Such a change made them quickly put down their knives and forks and get up and go over.

It turned out that between the two, a battle of ideas broke out between the chefs.

Bullock believes that meat dishes should be meat-based, supplemented with a variety of spices to maximize the flavor of the meat.

However, Xiangling felt that meat was just a piece of the puzzle of the whole dish, and it needed to be paired with other side dishes, such as Qingxin Flower and Jueyun Pepper, in order to become a complete dish.

Neither of the two convinces anyone, and in the end they can only draw a line and have a cooking-art-duel-fight!

"Sure enough, this guy's barbecue is quite delicious!" Back at the table, Xiangling ate the barbecue steak and said with a solemn expression, "What an amazing opponent."

It seems that I was able to beat her in the most serious state, with the best ingredients, and in a dignified manner! ”

After quickly disposing of the barbecue steaks, Xiangling suddenly stood up, "I'm going back to Liyue to find some ingredients!" ”

"Back to Liyue!" Paimon was surprised, "But it's night, and it's so far away, do you really want to go there?" ”

"To win this contest! Worth. Xiangling clenched her fists, her eyes were full of high fighting spirit, and then she looked down at Lu Shiyuan and asked nervously, "Brother Lu, what do you think?" ”

"Rare ingredients......" Lu Shiyuan groaned, and after thinking about the plot of the mission, he instructed, "Xiangling, near the stone gate, there should be a secret realm, there, you will find ingredients that can give you a "crackling" feeling.

Hurry up, and when you find the ingredients, I'll take care of the rest of the ingredients.

I'm not going, and, if I stay, I'll show you my luggage. ”

"I see, Brother Lu." Xiangling's beautiful eyes lit up, and she immediately rushed to Liyue with her pot, shouting to them as she ran, "I'll wait for you in Liyue." ”

"That's too self-talking, isn't it?" Paimon was a little speechless, "What should I do, Ying, do you want to keep up?" ”

"I have no choice but to keep up." Ying still recognized Xiangling as a friend, and the other party invited her to a meal just now.

"We're leaving. Shi Yuan, are you really not coming? Paimon asked.

"Don't go, I'm going to show Xiangling the luggage." He pointed to the pile of animal meat, pots and pans and other luggage at hand.

"Okay then." Since the other party found such a reason, Paimon had no choice but to agree, "Then remember to prepare the ingredients for Xiangling." ”

"Oh yes, is the secret realm you just talked about real?" Paimon asked, curiously.

"Well, you'll know when you go." Lu Shiyuan said with a smile.

"Why, you can't be lying?" Paimon said unpleasantly, "I've long thought you're weird, Paimon is going to give you an ugly nickname."

Well, since you like to deceive people so much, let's call you a big liar! ”

Listening to the bickering between the two, Ying Shen muttered for a moment and then said, "Shi Yuan, Mondstadt is very dangerous right now, if you are looking for ingredients, try not to go too far."

After all, there are dragons. ”

"Oh, there's a dragon?" Lu Shiyuan's eyes lit up, and he asked tentatively, "When did it happen?" ”

"It was the first two days."

Paimon floated to Ying's side and said proudly, "Two days ago, the Traveler defeated Stormterror in Mondstadt!" Not only that, but together with the Knights, she snatched back the Temple of the Four Winds Guardian from Stormdemon and guarded the city. ”

"Oh, is this plot point...... Lu Shiyuan's heart moved, not long ago, he had just completed the whole plot of the prologue of the game, and he understood that this point in time was just the beginning of the plot, and there were two important characters who did not appear.

"Since the official plot hasn't started yet, I might be able to blend in with this dragon team."

He had a plan in mind.

As for why you have to join this protagonist team, there is actually a reason.

Before coming to Mondstadt, he really just wanted to meet the old friends he had met in these games, but during his journey, when he finished the rest of the story, he realized something very important.

In the prologue, it seems that the whole incident was caused by the Abyss Order, but the Fatui from the Far East also contributed to this incident and took away the Wind God's Divine Heart at the end of the story.

This revealed a very bad fact to Lu Shiyuan, the Fatui, no, it was the Ice God who was plotting to rob the God Heart of the other six gods!
