Jin Shu knew that the way to shut Mu Feng up was to let him taste it himself.
Mu Feng, who had just looked disgusted, quietly sped up his eating speed after taking the first bite of meat porridge.
He's a big guy, so this bowl of porridge is only enough for him for two or three mouthfuls.
But such delicious porridge is enough to whet your appetite in just a few bites.
Mu Feng tried his best to control his movements and make himself appear less pathetic, but once the porridge in his bowl was empty, he couldn't help but stare at the porridge in the pot.
Jin Shu ate quickly and then served herself another bowl.
This time, she didn't ask Mu Feng directly, but instead added a bowl for the little mouse next to her.
Mu Feng, holding his bowl, silently savored the last savory flavor of the porridge. Watching the two people in front of him eat with increasing relish, and seeing that the porridge in the pot was almost gone, he suddenly said something.
"Ahem... I think I'm getting a little hungry after carrying you guys for so long."
I wasn't planning on eating, but since there's food available, I'll just have some too.
After saying that, Mu Feng handed the bowl directly to Jin Shu.
His face was practically screaming.
Give me a bowl.
"You should have said so earlier. There's only one small bowl left. You can have it all."
Mu Feng brought over a small bowl. Even though he had been quite restrained and ate with great care, it was gone before he could fully enjoy it.
That's really it.
Jin Shu put all the pots away.
Mu Feng swallowed hard, suppressing the craving that was nagging at him, and closed his eyes to continue resting.
I barely slept all night.
Because my mouth was filled with that amazing taste.
It was incredibly fresh and tender, unlike anything he had ever tasted before. Even the pheasant meat, which he usually disliked for having too many bones and too little meat, was incredibly flavorful in that bowl of porridge.
After a sleepless night, Mu Feng finally came to a conclusion.
That means Jin Shu is most likely a witch.
She must have put poison in the pot.
But if that's the case, she ate it herself too.
That means there was no poison used.
But if there's nothing wrong with it, how come it tastes so good!
He had tried cooked food before, but in the end, it was too hot and too tough, so he opted for raw meat instead.
Why is Jin Shu's cooked food so delicious?
Meanwhile, Jin Shu slept soundly inside the animal skin tent.
The tent was very warm, and the animal hides underneath were freshly tanned, fluffy and soft, and even smelled of flowers after being washed.
After transforming into beast form, I lay down on it to sleep, feeling as if I were lying in a cloud, the feeling of being enveloped in a collapsed space was incredibly comfortable and relaxing.
The fire in the stove burned brightly, and warmth enveloped the surroundings.
Although they were in the middle of nowhere, no beast dared to disturb them because of Mu Feng, the absolute overlord of the skies who preyed on carnivorous animals.
So Jin Shu slept very soundly. When she crawled out of the tent, her face was rosy and her eyes were bright. Compared to the listless Mu Feng next to her, he looked more like a refugee.
What should we eat for breakfast?
Mu Feng blurted out a sentence, but Jin Shu rubbed her eyes and took out some dried beef jerky from her bag.
"Here, eat this."
"It's too dry, I can't swallow it, let's get something else."
"Then you shouldn't eat anymore. Pack your things and get ready to leave."
Mu Feng kept a straight face. He had been thinking about it all night, but Jin Shu just wanted to get rid of him with a piece of hard beef jerky.
"I have to carry you two a long way, and I'll get hungry if I don't eat. Don't you, a female, know any compassion?"
Jin Shu seemed to have figured out what he was thinking, and rubbed her eyes as she spoke.
"So, what do you want?"
"The porridge last night was alright, and it was easy to eat. I'm not a picky person, so I'll just make some more porridge and have a simple meal."
"That won't do. We're out of grains and pheasant meat. We can't eat it."
"You only brought that little bit?"
Jin Shu nodded and handed over the beef jerky.
"This tastes good too, do you want it? If not, I'll take it back."
"want!"
Mu Feng, with a stern face, snatched the beef jerky. He had just put it in his mouth and chewed a couple of times when his eyes immediately lit up.
It smells amazing! It's fragrant and chewy, and the more you chew, the more fragrant it becomes, with a flavor he's never tasted before!
The taste was salty, and my tongue hurt a little and felt a bit numb, like I had been poisoned with some strange poison in my mouth. It was weird but very addictive.
"What did you add to this?!"
Now Mu Feng was certain that Jin Shu had some extraordinary skills; she was able to create such a magical flavor.
Jin Shu answered while packing up the tent.
"Chili peppers, Sichuan peppercorns, salt."
"Chili peppers, Sichuan peppercorns?"
Jin Shu nodded.
"I've never heard of such a thing."
Have you ever heard of those thorny flowers?
Mu Feng nodded.
"That's poisonous, don't go near it."
This is something all orcs understand from childhood.
"The spicy flavor is extracted from the fruit of the thorn flower."
"This is poisonous! How could you give me this to eat?!"
Jin Shu looked at him expressionlessly, then stuffed a piece of beef jerky into her mouth and chewed it calmly.
"Don't worry, if I can't be poisoned to death, then I certainly can't poison you either."
So what if delicious food contains a little poison?
Besides, with Jin Shu's treatment, unless tons of it are stuffed into the stomach, it's unlikely that symptoms of poisoning will occur.
As long as there are no symptoms, it is safe.
These are everyday life tips passed down from our ancestors over thousands of years.
Mu Feng adapted quickly, and after eating what Jin Shu gave him, and learning from last night's experience, he took out his own leather bag, opened it, and handed it directly to Jin Shu.
"Give me some more, fill it up."
Jin Shu wasn't a stingy person, so she took out half of the remaining beef jerky from her bag and gave it to him.
So during the rest of the flight, Mu Feng would stop every now and then, open the small bag around his neck, and stuff a piece of beef jerky into his mouth.
You have to stop eating as soon as you finish what you're eating, anytime, anywhere.
The remaining short distance took even longer than yesterday.
After arriving above the Eagle Clan's territory, Mu Feng circled once and let out a sharp cry before swooping down. After passing through the clouds, Jin Shu finally saw the entire Eagle King Clan's territory.
As expected of a giant tribe, the Eagle King Clan's territory covers an entire vast grassland, while the Eagle King Clan members live on cliffs at an altitude of over two thousand meters.
Mu Feng folded its wings, tilted its claws forward, and landed firmly on the cliff face. Its sharp claws dug deep into the crevices of the cliff.
Apart from the Eagle King clan, no other bird clan can fly up these treacherous mountains.
Upon arriving at the location, Jin Shu felt a sudden tightness in her chest. (End of Chapter)
