Chapter 20 No Way No Way No Way
Yesterday, after the ice and snow elves and the lightning elves had explored the merchant ship, they were too far away to be retrieved by Zhang Yun, and there was an order of "not to be discovered", so they found a small hole in the ship and hid secretly in it.
The cave was very small and its location was very hidden, so after Zhang Yun got on the boat, she didn't care about the two of them and let them stay in the cave all night.
Otherwise, if we collect them openly and someone sees us, wouldn't we be in trouble?
"Ice and Snow Elf, you come back first. Lightning Elf, continue to hide inside and wait for orders."
After Zhang Yun finished speaking, she took the ice and snow elf back into the follower space, then stood up again, leaned against the railing, and pretended nothing had happened.
at this time.
Zhang Yun has new plans.
That mysterious man named Yutier is very troublesome. I cannot just let him control my information while knowing nothing about him.
So Zhang Yun decided to find an opportunity to find out where Yutier lived, and then send the ice and snow elves to sneak in and secretly monitor his every move.
If Yutier discovers the ice elf, he should kill it directly. At that time, we will take that opportunity to carefully observe his movements and weapons, and then judge his strength and professional ability.
If he hasn't discovered it, then it's easy. Just observe him secretly and keep a close eye on his every move.
After all, the other party's background is unknown, and he is so interested in Brother Zun that his eyes are almost shining. No matter how you think about it, he is a dangerous person who will cause trouble.
So we must guard against him and prepare in advance...
After the hair dryer was finished, Zhang Yun returned to the restaurant and found that the mysterious man named Yutier was gone.
Going back to the room?
Oh, it’s okay, there’s another chance in the evening.
After thinking about it, Zhang Yun took Zun Ge to continue working. First they collected the bowls, then washed the dishes, and then they wiped the table, swept the floor, mopped the floor... They were just like waiters on a ship.
Zhang Yun didn't think it mattered. After all, she was "rescued" by someone along the way, and it was her duty to help him with this little bit of work.
Moreover, compared to losing dragon diamonds and resurrection coins, doing these odd jobs obviously earns much more.
As for Brother Zun, his background story is one thing, and the actual situation is another. As a heroic follower summoned from another world, he will absolutely obey the normal orders of the summoner, even if it means putting down his sword to serve tea and water to others.
Of course, some special orders cannot be given to heroes...
Time passed quickly. After a busy afternoon, it was time for dinner for the passengers on the ship, and Zhang Yun met Yutier again.
"Good evening, gentlemen." Yuthir took the initiative to greet them.
"Fellow enthusiasts." Zhang Yun deliberately used a special word.
Hearing this, Yutiel was not surprised or confused. Instead, he naturally started the conversation: "I heard from the boss on the ship that the chef will use the meat of monsters to cook tonight. I wonder if you have ever eaten it?"
"Monster meat?"
Zhang Yun wanted to say that he had eaten it, but he thought carefully and realized that if monster meat was something that could be eaten casually, the other party would not ask him such a strange question, making him look like a local refugee who couldn't afford meat...
"Yes, it is the Earth Rat. The meat of this monster is very delicious and not as hard to swallow as other monster meat. However, it is more difficult to handle than other monster meat and requires a lot of time to prepare."
Yutiel smiled faintly and said, "It seems that we are very lucky to meet a great chef who can cook such an unpopular dish."
Ah!
You are awesome too!
You know all these unpopular things!
Zhang Yun complained in her heart, but her face remained calm. She slowly asked, "I've never eaten this before. What does it taste like? Can you tell me in detail?"
Yutiel replied: "It melts in your mouth , fresh and delicious. Because earth rats love to eat strawberries, there is a light strawberry flavor in the meat, but it does not affect the original meat flavor. Instead, it blends perfectly together to form a unique taste."
"Compared to the meat of the island stone rabbit?"
Yutiel was stunned: "Huh? Island stone rabbit? Have you ever eaten its meat?"
ah?
yes!
Not only have I eaten it, I've also eaten a whole pot of it and prepared a whole pot of it. If you want to eat it, I can serve it to you right now...
Zhang Yun coughed and said, "I'm lucky enough to have tried it."
Yutiel said, "Then you are really lucky!"
Zhang Yun asked in confusion: "Why?"
"This rabbit lives on islands and has a hard time surviving on land. It can't be transported alive to other islands by boat, so it gets seasick easily, which leads to stress reactions and eventually causes illness and death," Yudil explained.
"The quality of their meat changes very quickly after they die, so they must be killed and cooked immediately to ensure their taste."
"Also, their meat is tough and they often drink seawater, which is very salty. If not handled properly, it will be too salty to swallow."
“So if you want to eat island rabbits, you have to go to an island where they live and meet a chef who is good enough to taste their real flavor.”
Huh? So complicated? I remember that I just put it in the pot and cooked it, then sprinkled the seasoning from the cookbook on it and that was it?
It doesn’t feel salty?
Well……
All right……
The food book is awesome...
Yutiel suddenly asked, "Huh? You don't know these things? Didn't the chef tell you?"
Zhang Yun said quickly: "He should have told me, right? I'm not sure, because he was chatting with my uncle at the time, and I was only focused on eating and didn't pay attention to what they were talking about."
Hehe, when you are undecided, push uncle, perfect excuse~
Yutiel said, "Oh, I see. I thought that chef was indifferent to fame and fortune and didn't even mention something that could make him famous..."
Zhang Yun asked doubtfully, "Huh? Famous all over the world? Is it really that difficult to make an island stone rabbit?"
No way, no way, no way? Is the food book really that awesome?
Yutiel nodded: "Of course, it is recognized by all chefs from ancient times to the present as one of the most difficult monster dishes in the world to make."
"Add to that the harsh conditions and special environment required to make it. Ordinary chefs simply don't have the opportunity or time to study it, making it even more difficult to make than other difficult monster dishes."
"Many people even believe that the meat of the island rabbit is inedible."
“Only those gourmet masters who have long lost interest in money and truly aim to create delicious food would spend a lot of money and time studying the cooking methods of Island Stone Rabbit, and then by chance figure out a way to keep the meat fresh and delicious.”
Hearing this, Zhang Yun felt very strange and asked, "Why don't the chefs who developed the recipe pass it down? Let other chefs copy it... Oh, sorry, it was a slip of the tongue. I meant why don't other chefs follow their method to cook the island rabbit dish?"
Yutiel replied: "Because each chef's methods and habits are different, even if you imitate them very carefully, there will be slight differences."
"Any change in the temperature of the flame, or a little wind, can cause the meat of the island rabbit to taste bad."
“And those masters who have successfully made island stone rabbit dishes cannot guarantee that they can make island stone rabbit meat with the same taste next time, or even make island stone rabbit meat that is edible…”
"So, Shimashi Rabbit cuisine is no longer just an ordinary delicacy, but the ultimate goal of all chefs and one of the ways to prove themselves. "
“Similarly, it is not important whether the masters will pass down their methods or not. What is important is whether the later generations can successfully make their own island rabbit dishes and prove their belief in food.”
Zhang Yun suddenly realized: "Ah! That's how it is!"
that……
I think I know why the Food Book is rated five stars...
Afterwards, the two chatted about some food knowledge and interesting stories about chefs.
Because they chatted a lot and found themselves in agreement, the tone of their conversation was no longer as polite as before, but became casual, as if they were good friends who had known each other for a long time.
However, Zhang Yun was not affected by this friendly atmosphere and did not forget her original plan.
He found an opportunity to lead Yutiel back to the room, followed him, pretended to be interested in the conversation, and planned to chat with Yutiel all night.
In fact, he secretly placed the ice elf in Yutier's room and let it squat in a hidden corner with a good view, so as to monitor the other party conveniently.
After doing all this, Zhang Yun made up an excuse, slipped out of Yutier's room, and returned to the cabin where she slept.
He washed up casually, lay down on the simple wooden bed, then switched to the perspective of the ice elf and began to observe Yutier.
At this time, Yutil was sitting in front of a wooden table illuminated by an oil lamp, holding a thick ancient book in his hands, his eyes focused on the contents of the book, and he was completely unaware of the ice and snow elves slowly floating in the corner.
"I go!"
"Is he really a big bookworm?"
"Could it be that he really has no ill intentions, and what he said was not an attempt to deceive me... He has simply read too many books, so he subconsciously likes to show off what he knows to others?"
"Uh, no, no, he's not showing off. Judging from his attitude when we were chatting just now, he probably thinks I can get along with him, so he wants to share some interesting stories from his past with me."
"If he wanted to show off, his tone wouldn't be so calm. Besides, there are more than 40 people on the ship for him to show off. There's no need for him to talk to just me..."
"Then why is he interested in Brother Zun? There are so many professionals on the ship, but he doesn't look at others with interest?"
"Did he see any special details from Brother Zun?"
"possible!"
"This guy's knowledge is a bit terrifying, his observation skills are also strong, and he is a special existence with full status question marks. Brother Zun is an African god of war, so it would be strange if he didn't target him..."
After a pause, Zhang Yun pulled himself out of the perspective of the ice and snow elves and said to himself: "Oh, don't worry, we will arrive at Luoluo Island tomorrow anyway I will change boats there and get rid of this guy. I don't believe he will follow me!"
"If you follow me? Sorry, I'm not a pushover..."
That's right, although Zhang Yun was very curious about Yutier's state full of question marks, he didn't want to get to know Yutier in detail, nor did he want to have too much connection with this person. He just wanted to stay away from this guy as soon as possible to avoid being involved in messy troubles.
After all, Zhang Yun's goal is to have fun in the other world, eat delicious food, see beautiful scenery, level up, complete tasks, dig for possible dragon diamond mines, and then complete the task of "Hamster King".
Fighting, conquering the world, becoming king... He has no interest in anything, not the slightest interest at all.
Not to mention coming into contact with people whose backgrounds are unknown and getting involved in messy events.
Even if he's a very interesting person.
Who knows if he will waste resources because of him? Summoning scrolls and resurrection coins are much more valuable than a man with question marks all over him...
However, if I meet someone like Yutier again in the future, I don’t have to avoid him.
It is necessary to make contact.
But at least you have to understand the information of this world clearly first, and improve your inheritance level, and find out the other party's origins and background before you can consider these things.
after all……
Zhang Yun knows what she wants most.
Also know what to do.
That’s right!
He got the title of "King of Hamsters"!
Therefore, anything that would waste Dragon Diamonds must be fundamentally stopped, and there must be no reason to use Dragon Diamonds!
…
The next day, the sea was calm, the wind was stable, there were no monster attacks and no pirate harassment. Robert's ship went at full speed and arrived at a place called Lolo Island at noon.
After arriving at the destination, Zhang Yun found an opportunity to retrieve the ice and snow elves hiding in Yutier's room and the lightning elves hiding in the cave, then thanked Robert and other passengers, and said goodbye to Yutier.
Yutier did not try to keep Zhang Yun, nor did he ask where Zhang Yun wanted to go. He just said regretfully, "See you again if we're lucky," and returned to his room.
Well……
It seems that I have wrongly blamed others...
I just want to chat...
However, we just met by chance and will never see each other again, so don't worry too much about such a small matter. You should make good use of your time to read books.
After thinking about it, Zhang Yun happily left the Brandy and entered the city on Lolo Island.
This is a maritime city, and also a supply station and rest stop for merchant ships, so it is crowded with people, and there are a wide variety of shops selling everything from food, drinks, and entertainment.
"Speaking of which."
"There should be a library in a place like this, right?"
On the other hand, because of the need to replenish the magic stone and supplies, Robert's ship had to stay in the port for one night. Until the next morning, when all the things needed for the voyage were prepared, they could set off again to Bantsona.
Because Zhang Yun left, Yutier had no way to chat with the other people on the boat, so he sat alone in his room, reading leisurely.
Until night fell, a blue seabird as big as a cat flew to the ship with the night wind, bypassed the working sailors, came to Yutier's room with ease, and finally landed on his book.
Immediately, Yutiel sighed, closed the book, then put on the coat draped over the stool and stood up from the chair.
“There are even some on this island…”
