my age of magic

Chapter 88

When the young nobles of the North Shore gathered to eat cold wheat cakes, they didn't even light a bonfire.Even some low bushes are hard to find on the wilderness near the north shore here, and a campfire cannot be maintained by relying on dry alfalfa leaves, but it seems that some people really can't stand the dry bread and walk into the grass Picking up dead grass stalks should be to prepare for dinner. After all, there must be at least one warm meal before nightfall. The night in the early spring of the wasteland is still very cold.

Sure enough, Kutz managed to get the oil. For this reason, he hunted back an adult male wild boar weighing more than [-] kilograms, and tied it to the pig's leg with a hemp rope and sent it back to the camp brutally. There were only two arrow wounds. One arrow hit the right eye socket, causing the wild boar to lose its vision on the right side, and the last arrow directly inserted into the heart from the area between the two front legs on the lower side of the neck.

We set up a cauldron on the bank of the river, under which there was a magic scroll of focus fire to boil the water in the cauldron. I had some reluctance to shave off the thick fat under the skin of the wild boar, even the two thighs in the abdomen. Throw all the suet into the pot, and after the hot water is boiled dry, the fat in the fat will be slowly drawn out.This is what Kurtz thought of for me. In order to eat fried rabbit legs, he would rather go five or six kilometers to hunt and kill a wild boar, and the purpose is just to get the fat from it?

Qige happily ran back from the grassland and told me that there are countless hemorrhoids in the grassland, and even some kudzu root and Ningshen grass can be found. In her hand, she held a freshly dug out of the soil The kudzu root kept shaking in front of me, and proudly said to me: "Look! Jia, this is the first time I dug out such a big kudzu root. The ones planted in the medicine garden of our college even grow It’s not as thick as a finger. When I first saw this kudzu root, I thought it was very inconspicuous and dry. I didn’t expect it, I didn’t expect it! It’s so big, maybe I can graduate from the Potion Master During the exam, use it to prepare a bottle of primary strength potion."

Pueraria lobata, an earth-attribute primary magic herb, can be made into potions to make earth-attribute magic potions.The function of kudzu root was clearly recorded on the sheepskin scroll of beast herbal medicine that old Kuru showed me. The scroll even introduced that kudzu root, which has grown for more than a hundred years, can be processed and refined into a power magic potion that can permanently increase the power attribute. And the primary strength potion that Qige mentioned is not the magic potion of eternal power, but a potion that temporarily increases strength. However, even such primary attribute potions are expensive in the market and are very popular among soldiers. It is only used in life-saving situations or important missions or duels, it is very precious.

I marinated the whole steak with salt and pepper, and put it on the flat pebbles that were washed aside. The blood flowed slowly along the pebbles into the river. All the hideous pig heads were thrown into the river.These things are very troublesome to deal with, and the four of us can’t finish them at all, and it’s useless to keep them. The strong smell of blood may attract hyenas or wolves. It’s better to throw them away. If there’s not a river here, Kuz I even dug an earthen pit and buried them. The waste thrown into the river attracted a group of small fish with silvery white chopsticks to gather by the river. Only then did I know that this glacier is not without fish, but The river channel is very deep. These fishes that live in the glaciers usually live in deep water, but it seems that the fish here have no sense of danger by nature, and they openly eat the internal organs of those animals discarded in the river under our noses. It’s not that our food is too abundant, I have the heart to grab two and make grilled fish for a change.

"This is a paradise for primary herbs, and you can even find intermediate herbs if you go further inside. Most hunters who can cross the river look down on the primary herbs here. They will go deep into the wasteland to find those intermediate herbs." Kuz squatted On the ground, he was desperately fanning a pile of charcoal with the lid of the pot. In order to get the charcoal, the prodigal kid Kuz directly burned a piece of wood used to build a tent, and threw it into the water before it turned into a pile of black charcoal. Huhu charcoal.In order to have a mouthful of delicious food, this guy really didn't care about anything, claiming that as long as he had something to eat, he could sleep on the grass wrapped in a leather jacket.

Qige was very moved when she heard that, although she didn't have a good impression of Kurtz, maybe she was a bit hostile to the orcs by nature, which is a common problem among the people of the Green Empire, who think that the orcs are country bumpkins who have never seen the world.

In addition, Qige has the blood talent that makes all orcs excited. In the orc world, if they can marry a girl from the Tianhu clan as their wife, it will mean that their future children will have the opportunity to learn magic and become the most popular in the orc tribe. Dear shaman, this also directly led to the gradual disappearance of the once prosperous orc tribe Tianhu in the long river of history.

Then there is the reason of the old Kuru, for the vigilance of the old Kuru, Qige has always been hostile to Kuru.It wasn't until we formed a team together that Qige's view of Kurtz gradually changed. At this time, when he heard that Kurtz said that he could find a mid-level magic herb that was considered rare in the Green Empire, he couldn't help asking: "Where is it?" Can you find the heather, fireflower, and iceweed?"

"Heathergrass grows in the stone forest near the mountains, not here. I have never seen flame flowers, but I heard that there is an entrance to the underground world in the wasteland, which leads to the underground castle of the gray dwarves. There are some flame flowers growing. There is ice grass, but then we have to go through the hyena camp completely, and we will meet lions, they are the natural hunters of the grassland. If you are unlucky and meet the first-level monster Manticore, You must remember to throw away all the cumbersome materials and run as far as you can!" Kuz said while putting the ignited charcoal into the iron pot, and placed a grate made of chopsticks-thick steel wire on it.

In order to be able to eat barbecue with a special flavor, we also took great pains to get it from the uncle blacksmith of the caravan. The charcoal is placed on one side of the iron pot, and after the iron grate is placed in the pot, the marinated pork is placed on the grate On the other side, close the round pot lid and wait for the heat of the charcoal to smoke the marinated meat in the iron pot. The grilled meat tastes great, and there will be a smell of bacon.

Qiger and Katerina could only wait on the sidelines, unable to help at all.The dazzling cooking techniques of Kurz and I are very different. They directly regard these cooking techniques as secret cooking techniques in the orc tribe, because ordinary orcs are not very good at it!At this time, the wild boar lard in another oil pan has been boiled, and I asked Katerina to help remove the oil residue and put it in a leather bag.Kurz likes these oil residues made from fat meat very much. It tastes delicious, crispy and very hungry, and if you add a little salt, it is easy to store, even if you take it on the road.

The meat of the hare was fished out from the river by me, cut into half-palm-sized pieces, marinated with seasoning, wrapped in a layer of potato starch paste, rolled in black bread crumbs, Put it directly into the frying pan, and the aroma of rabbit meat will come out immediately.Qige stood aside, her eyes sparkled, her little nose smelled the aroma, and she kept asking me if the meat that had just been put into the frying pan and hadn’t changed color was cooked. The saying that girls’ mouths are the most greedy is always true. of.

At this time, I was thinking a little bit self-deprecatingly: We foodies, even if the group of people chasing and killing us is only across the river from us, what we did was not to run away, but to set up a camp on the bank of the river and live there. And it's too heartless to cook a hearty meal for myself with all my heart.

The remaining pork leg meat was chopped into pieces by Kurtz and formed into meatloaf, which was piled up like a hill on the copper plate. At this time, I also fried it in the oil pan together and turned it into flat meatballs.In this season, these meatloaf should be able to stand for three to five days without going bad, and we can take it on the road to eat, or when we stop somewhere, we only need to boil a pot of water and put a few deep-fried meatloaf into it. Put the cooked meatballs in, and it will easily become a pot of delicious stewed meatballs. If you can pick some wild shepherd's purse and put it in, it will be even more delicious.

We spread a clean tablecloth on the grass by the river, and it was filled with delicious food, including grilled browned and crispy wild pork steaks, hare meat fried until golden and fragrant, and a large plate Qige even asked Katerina to heat up some wheat cakes, and a thick pork bone and wild vegetable soup was boiled in the soup pot on the side. A few of us sat down and were about to share what we made after a busy afternoon. Looking at the food, I saw Kuz's hairy ears move flexibly. He put down his hand that was holding a piece of soft meat steak, and his other hand touched the alloy bow that was placed aside.

At this time, Katerina sitting next to me suddenly seemed a little nervous, and her tender hands almost spilled the steak on the plate on the ground. I clearly felt the fear in her heart, and at the same time marveled at the vigilance of the orcs in the wild I really have nothing to say, I think my ears and eyes have become very sharp recently, but I can't keep up with Kurtz in the wild. Now I find that even Katerina is not as good as these abilities are brought from the womb.Katerina sat beside me and said to me in a low voice, "Someone is coming over there!"

The first thing I thought of was that the group of noble children suddenly found a way to cross the river!But immediately realized that it couldn't be, because Kurtz and Katerina were not looking at the north bank of the river, but looking at the pasture in the south.I followed their gazes, and saw a dragon running rapidly on the horizon under the blue sky and white clouds. The light blue scales on its body reflected the dazzling light under the sun, and a tall figure sat upright. In the leather saddle on the dragon's back, one hand is holding the rein, and the other hand is on the leg for stability.

In the livestock market in Yemen Town, I once saw a dragon with a height of more than two meters. Like the wings of a chicken, the two thick and powerful long legs are said to be able to reach a distance of more than ten meters in one leap. It is a rare land creature with extremely high speed.And according to Kurtz, only powerful fighters would dare to ride such a ferocious mount.Looking at the direction in which the dragon was running, we decided that it was running straight towards us. For such a strong man who dared to walk alone in the wasteland, we didn't know what to do for a while.
