Chapter 94 A Carefree Life
Xuantian City has officially shifted from the colorful spider craze to the fragrant pig craze. The tender and smooth meat of the fragrant pig, lightly grilled and dipped in seasoning, melts in the mouth, and the fragrance lingers in the mouth for a long time.
It has become the most delicious meat in the city, no doubt about it!
By the time the professional players remembered the Fruit Forest, Lu Jiu and the others had already been there for several days. After obtaining enough fragrant pork, they were no longer as frantic as they had been in the previous few days.
Later, most of the fragrant pork they grilled was sold to restaurants, which made the restaurant manager very happy. Recently, the restaurant also opened a barbecue set meal, and the most popular ones were wild boar meat and fragrant pork.
Today, Lu Jiu and the others decided to splurge and go to the restaurant to eat barbecue. Although Zhuang Yun's cooking skills were good, the attribute values added by the food made with wild boar meat were not as high as those of the NPC.
The round barbecue grill is covered with sliced fragrant pork. Under the high temperature roasting, the fresh meat gradually turns brown and the aroma is fragrant.
There were other guests eating nearby, and the restaurant was filled with enthusiastic conversations. Some were talking about their recent gains, while others were bragging about the level of monsters they had killed.
Lu Jiu patiently turned the meat on the grill, then took a bite of the fried chicken leg to satisfy his craving. "This meat is cooking so slowly. Food used to be prepared so quickly."
In the past, as long as the seasoning was right, the food would basically cook quickly and taste just as good.
“It’s like this after the big update, but it makes me feel like I’m really familiar with what I’m doing. I was quite uncomfortable with it before.”
Zhuang Yun cooks frequently, and before the major game update, even a main dish would take him 5-10 minutes at most, which really made him doubt whether the dish was cooked.
Lu Jiu sighed slightly after hearing what he said, "I'll go get a drink. An An, what do you want to drink?"
An An: "I want juice."
After a while, Lu Jiu came back with a tray with four cups on it, one for each of the four people.
Lu Jiu tilted his head back slightly and took a sip of the fat otaku's happy water. "I've been so busy killing piggies lately that I've forgotten about the other monsters."
Wild boars now refresh twice a day, with 3-5 heads refreshed each time. Generally, if the team is small, they will be divided equally, and if the team is large, each one will rely on their own abilities.
There are more fragrant pigs, and I don’t know how often they refresh, but you can basically encounter a litter of them after walking a certain distance.
Shen Jufeng looked at the boiled water in front of him, then glanced at the iced cola in Lu Jiu's hand, pursed his lips, and said: "If you want to brush some more in the next two days, go somewhere else. Anyway, there is enough meat collected."
Now they are not the only ones going there to kill pig monsters, even the patrolling NPCs in the city have been sent there, but most of the NPCs go there at night.
Many people in the city were amazed by this situation.
Zhuang Yun poked the barbecue with his chopsticks and said, "It's ready to eat. It's a good time to talk about where to go next while we eat."
Lu Jiu slowly put down the cup, picked up a piece of golden roasted pork, dipped it in some dry chili powder, put it into his mouth, chewed it a few times, and the deliciousness of the pork burst in his mouth.
The slightly burnt aroma makes the delicious taste linger for a long time.
After swallowing the meat, Lu Jiu spoke: "Let's go somewhere farther away. It seems that there are too many people nearby. If the harvest outside is good, we can stay for a few more days before coming back."
Shen Jufeng picked up two pieces of meat with his chopsticks and said, "It's all right. Someone has already killed bronze-level monsters, but we haven't encountered one yet."
Recently, when other people in the city were farming in the Fruit Tree Forest, some people chose to kill other monsters. They encountered a bronze-level monster and came back to tell everyone about it.
Lu Jiu: "You will encounter them, but this training room is great. We can simulate battles in advance, so we won't be panicked even if we encounter bronze-level opponents."
Zhuang Yun nodded and said, "Yes, I'm also looking forward to encountering bronze monsters."
The team that killed the bronze monster earned a lot of resources, and at that time caused many people to abandon the Fruit Forest and turn to the wild to farm.
As they were talking, the meat on the grill was reduced at a speed visible to the naked eye. Lu Jiu pushed the remaining meat aside and started grilling new meat.
After the meal, the total attribute values of several people increased by about 15-25. It was worth it.
*
The original craze in the training room has passed, but because a team recently successfully killed a group of bronze monsters, the rich resources they gained made many people jealous.
This training room is popular again.
There are even ordinary residents who organize temporary teams with acquaintances to go out and kill low-level monsters, which also provides an additional source of income for the family.
Old man Zeng has been working hard on making sausages of various flavors recently, all of which are orders from Lu Jiu and others. He has put everything else off for the time being.
There is no way. The orders from these three are too large. If I take on the rest, I don’t know when I can finish them.
Fortunately, with the help of little boy Tang Yi, old man Zeng’s production speed was not so slow.
The grandfather and grandson put the sausages they had just made into the plaid backpack, which was provided by Lu Jiu and others.
Old Man Zeng wiped the sweat off his face. He had been busy with this for a while and finally finished the last bit. "Okay, after Miss Lu and the others take it away, we'll take the next order."
Tang Yi was very sensible and handed his grandfather a towel. "Grandpa, why don't you take a few days off? Ninth sister and the others have made a lot of money anyway, and there's also meat."
Old man Zeng chuckled, pleased with his grandson's understanding. "Don't think it's easy now. Who knows what the winter will bring." He let out a long sigh and said, "Forget it, I won't take any orders these days. Let's go out and get more firewood."
Old man Zeng has had hard times. Natural disasters are unpredictable, and the world is so strange now, so it is wise to be more prepared.
Tang Yi nodded obediently, "Okay, it's better to collect firewood."
Before he took any orders, he would go out to collect firewood for money and buy several bottles of medicine.
"My grandson has been exhausted these past few days. Today, I'm taking you to a restaurant for barbecue. Those influential people say that the pork there has many benefits."
Tang Yi: "Really?! An An also told me that the barbecue there is especially delicious." Tang Yi had seen An An tell him that the barbecue in the restaurant was especially delicious before, and now that his grandfather was going to take him there, he couldn't help swallowing his saliva.
In fact, Old Man Zeng has also heard that many restaurant foods can increase attribute values. As for which kind of value is increased, it depends on what you eat. The food he cooks himself can only increase physical strength, but it does not increase the overall value of physical strength.
The grandfather and grandson went out and happened to meet their neighbors. A few aunts saw them and greeted them, "Hey, it's been a while since I saw you setting up a stall. Are you done with your work today?"
Old man Zeng nodded and said, "I just finished my work, so I might as well take him out for a meal." He touched his grandson's head.
"Okay, then we'll go back first." The aunts said goodbye to the grandfather and grandson warmly.
After the people had gone far away, the aunts started to discuss.
"Oh, it's different to have a good skill. You've been staying indoors for the past few days. I wonder how big the order is."
"Who says it's not? I've bought their braised food before, and it tastes really good."
"Alas, I used to see this old man and this kid going to so many places, but now they're willing to go out to eat."
They are all neighbors, and those who live close to each other know that Old Man Zeng is a good cook. Some people even ask him to make braised food and sausages.
I found a strange phenomenon. When I write articles, I don’t want to read them carefully and just copy and paste them. But when a reader finds bugs for me, I will read the content carefully and find that it seems not bad. I am not so embarrassed. Haha
