Food Poems

Chapter 2 Life of a professional gamer is like this
"Master, how do you plan to deal with that monster that looks like a snake-chicken beast?"

On the way up the mountain, the butler expressed his doubts.

Yeats searched for his target and picked a handful of wild berries.

Then he took out the glass jars he had brought from the carriage, put the wild berries in them, crushed them and squeezed out the juice, then he began to explain:

"This is wild berries from the chicken-snake's diet. Add sage and other herbs to make juice. If it is really the culprit, it can be lured out."

Phocas looked solemn, and in his heart he looked at the young master with new eyes: "I understand. When the snake-cockatricemon appears, we will try to kill it!"

"The method is simple. Just add this to the juice—"

It was harvest season, and Yeats pointed to the plump round wild fruits on the glowing leaves and said with a smile: "Croton glabra."

Phocas's expression suddenly became quite strange.

"Are you going to give the cockatrice... a laxative?"

Ye Zhi smiled and said, "In fact, adding spider mushrooms and mildew grass can also make poison, but the most suitable ingredient around here is croton."

This is not an ordinary laxative, but a powerful laxative that has been improved by Ye Zhi, a lifestyle player. In addition to the croton, it also contains common ingredients such as damp mushroom and red genkwa.

"Phantom Wings" has a very high degree of freedom. One day, Yeats invented this new formula. It is cheap and practical. Once it came out, it was regarded as a powerful means of catching pets.

If you want to catch a high-level baby, first give the wild monster a set of Ye Zhi's named package.

It is very difficult to increase the intimacy with babies captured in this way...

"This method happens to confirm one of my conjectures."

Yeats mixed a laxative and pondered, "The snake-chicken beast, as the name suggests, has a chicken on one end and a snake on the other. Many people can't tell whether the chicken is the head or the snake is the head."

"And according to my Yeats method, if you want to determine which side of a chicken or snake is the head and which side is the tail, just look at which side they use to eat and which side they use to have diarrhea."

Fokase had no expression on his face.

Young master, you have great academic ambitions!
Soon, Yeats's special version of wild berry juice was ready and placed in a conspicuous place as bait. Yeats and Fokasse waited secretly.

Soon, a large and uniquely shaped rooster, about the size of an ostrich, walked out of the bushes with a majestic step, and the python at the end of its tail made a hissing sound.

"No matter how I look at it, it seems that the one with the chicken head is the head of the chicken beast," Fokas muttered to himself.

"Hush, it's coming!"

The snake-chicken beast smelled the charming aroma and saw the juice, and suddenly became hungry and thirsty and rushed over quickly.

After observing it closely for the first time, he discovered that the chicken beast actually used its tail to absorb juice. Phocas was surprised:
"Master, could it be that the snake is the head of the snake-chicken beast?"

"No, Phokas, I just thought of a loophole in the plan just now."

Yeats said seriously: "It is also possible that the snake-cockatrice used the same head for eating and excretion."

Fokase:?

As soon as he finished speaking, his temper flared up violently.

The snake-chicken beast staggered, its snake tail foamed at the mouth madly, and even its chicken head began to spray.

Fokasse was stunned. No wonder the academic community has been unable to reach a conclusion!

"Okay, it shouldn't be a threat now." Ye Zhi said with disdain, "Fokas, go and kill it."

"...As you command, Master."

Phocas drew out the iron sword he was carrying and fluently dealt with the cockatrice, cutting it in two.

Ye Zhi looked at Phocas's smooth swordsmanship and was a little surprised.

I didn’t realize that you, old man, are such a master!

The waves in Phocas' heart surged even more. He hesitated for a moment and asked:

"Master, when did you become so proficient in potions?"

This is what life as a professional gamer is like.

If you can’t defeat wild monsters, you can only rely on food and potions to force your way through.

"Interest is the best teacher." Yeats said casually, "Take this snake-tail chicken back with you."

Fokasi felt quite pleased to see that his young master had grown up. He opened the large sack and began to pack it, carrying the load on one shoulder with the strength of his old age.

"Master, I am now more and more confident about the trip to Morning Frost Ridge!" said the old butler confidently.

Yeats:?
Lao Deng, I'm warning you, don't raise the flag blindly!
foot of the mountain.

The sun sets.

The snake-chicken beast was successfully conquered and was displayed in front of the villagers as evidence.

Surprise, awe, shame, all kinds of expressions appeared on the villagers' faces.

Gray had been released. She had tied her hair into a ponytail and had a hand axe commonly used by bandits pinned to the side of her leather armor. She turned her wrist and said angrily:
"See? I'm not a witch at all. Here's the proof!"

The village chief's face turned pale, and he was about to kneel down to Gray tremblingly.

The girl jumped back.

"No, old man, I can't bear it." Gray said coldly, "According to Article 7 of Page 30 of the Imperial Code, I now ask you to pay compensation and apologize."

"That's what you said."

"Just give the compensation to that pretty young master—"

Gray vented her dissatisfaction: "Then the rest of you in the village, apologize to me one by one, otherwise I will send you all to jail! Did you hear me, huh? Speak!" Yeats accepted the purse with a smile.

After weighing the purse, Ye Zhi's smile gradually faded, and he said in a deep voice, "Madam, this is not right, is it?"

The peasant woman asked anxiously, "Young Master, is there anything else wrong?"

"These are just your apology to this adventurer—"

Ye Zhi said, "I should get another reward for helping me defeat the snake-chicken beast. Don't you think so, huh?"

Looking at the smiling handsome boy, the villagers looked nervous and looked to the village chief for help.

After all, the baron was in the wrong, and the baron's request was not excessive. The village chief smiled bitterly and nodded.

Magic beast materials can also be sold for money. Yeats instructed Phocas to put the sacks containing snake-claw beasts on the carriage, purchase supplies, and prepare to set off.

"please wait a while!"

As expected, Gray took the initiative to follow.

"My name is Gray, I am a Dragonborn who is traveling and practicing. I was mistaken for a witch due to a misunderstanding."

Gray introduced herself, holding her forehead with one hand, as if she didn't want to recall it, and sighed, "Anyway, thank you very much for your help."

"Dragonborn, what is that?" Ye Zhi asked knowingly.

Hearing this, Gray raised her chest proudly: "In simple terms, it is a warrior who shoulders the mission of hunting ancient dragons!"

Ancient dragons, synonymous with powerful magical beasts in this world, have survived from ancient times to the present day, and each of them possesses a powerful force that can rival natural disasters.

The bosses of the same game guild in "Phantom Wings" always bring freshly hunted ancient dragon meat and ask Ye Zhi to help cook it, and then use the benefits provided by the food to continue the dungeon.

Now, he has traveled to this world and is about to become a minor noble in a remote fiefdom.

Yeats had no lofty ideals and just wanted to live a life of idleness and waiting for death.

But according to the description of the cooking text in the game, the meat of ancient dragons is undoubtedly top-notch delicacy.

This made Ye Zhi, a professional life player, very curious...

"By the way, you are the young master of the Bronti family? That means you must be very rich."

Gray smiled shyly, standing in the afterglow of the sunset with her ponytail flying, and made an impolite request.

"Actually, I've run out of supplies. I hope you can sponsor some food or something. It would be great if you could let me go with you."

Gray said righteously, "I will remember your kindness. When I hunt a real ancient dragon in the future, all the spoils will belong to you!"

Yeats:?
If you want to die, don't take me with you!
However, it was not until decades later in the game's plot that Grey acquired the fighting power to defeat the ancient dragon.

We could use her help in opening up the Morning Frost Ridge.

"Actually, I do lack an escort." Ye Zhi weighed the bag of money he had just received. "If you agree to serve as an escort for a year, this bag of silver coins will be considered as an advance commission. Supplies will of course be provided to you as well."

"One year?" Gray glanced at Ye Zhi and tilted her head and asked, "May I ask where you are going this time?"

"The border of the kingdom, Morningfrost Ridge."

"Okay, I promise you!"

In the sunset, the girl with a ponytail smiles as beautiful as a flower.

Ye Zhi felt a vague sense of uneasiness in his heart.

He agreed so decisively. Could it be possible that an ancient dragon could appear in such a remote place?

Magical beasts are rampant in this world. The powerful magical beasts represented by the ancient dragons have the power to destroy the world and have incomparable delicious meat.

If you want to survive, you must, in the final analysis, strengthen your ability to protect yourself.

But how can I, a college student with no power at all, protect myself?

Ye Zhi was thinking, while Gray was walking around the luxurious carriage admiring it, and following the routine of online novels, he focused his mind and recited silently in his heart.

"system?"

no response.

Ye Zhi covered his face and said, "That's right, how could it really be effective?"

I am too immature.

"...Panel?" Ye Zhi called it a different way.

【Ding--】

I have never heard such a pleasant sound.

Ye Zhi: “…”

This time the sound really comes out!

Light blue text slowly emerged before his eyes, and the golden entry in the talent column attracted Ye Zhi's surprised eyes.

"Talent, the spirit of food?"

　　Food, pets, and relaxation are the main focus of daily life!

　　I hope you will support Kouya during the new book period!
