Food Poems

Chapter 82 The knight is old, can he still make a living?
"How come the prey belongs to that rotten wood?"

On the way back to White Night City, Count Jai was in a daze and kept muttering to himself.

"Why does he have such a powerful magical pet?"

Countess Ailei's eyes revealed contempt. Just now, Jayi was thrown into disarray when facing the charging griffin. Such good-for-nothings are common in families with hereditary titles.

On the other hand, the legendary "Baron Rottenwood" had already tamed a powerful falcon at a young age, which was truly extraordinary.

Ai Lei laughed at Jay from the High Castle in her heart, but smiled and said, "Perhaps, it is because Baron Yeats could not open the Tree of Life that he devoted his efforts to taming the beast. Why should you worry about a young and energetic boy?"

Jiayi immediately became happy and laughed, "You are right. I will give this griffin to him!"

Thomas smiled, not wanting to stay beside Jay any longer, so he rode his horse to the side of the silver-haired boy and rode side by side with him as a sign of respect.

Yeats turned his head to look at the fat earl beside him and said, "Lord Thomas, what's the matter?"

"You and the falcon's performance just now was really amazing." Thomas asked with a smile, "I wonder when did you start training this snowy owl?"

"About two months ago." Ye Zhi said truthfully.

Thomas was slightly startled, obviously not believing what he said. He had already thought about it eight hundred times in his mind, and then smiled and changed the subject:
"The banquet will be held in the castle hall. I will ask the city's gourmet chef to cook today's game to reward you. I will have a couple of drinks with Mr. Yeats at that time."

"Thank you for your kindness, Lord Earl." Ye Zhi declined. "I will not attend the dinner. I just had an inspiration to make a potion using the materials from the griffin. The inspiration was fleeting, so I hope Lord Earl will forgive me."

"Your Excellency also knows Potions?" Thomas pretended to be surprised.

Ye Zhi smiled and said, "Didn't you already know that I can learn potions?"

The new healing potion produced by Morning Frost Ridge has caused a lot of buzz. Thomas has obviously heard about it before. He doesn't care much about Ye Zhi's revelation and laughs:
"You must attend the dance after the dinner. I have something important to discuss with you. It may be related to the future of White Night City and Morning Frost Ridge!"

This is an alarmist statement, and Thomas is a man who looks kind but has a cruel heart.

Ye Zhi had no choice but to agree, and thought to himself, what important thing could be related to the future?

Old man, you don't want to introduce your daughter to me, do you?
After entering White Night City, everyone went their separate ways.

A group of people went to the lord's castle, and Yeats asked Thomas's men to pull the cart carrying the griffin to the door of the Merchants' Guild.

Ye Zhi's cooking only requires griffin hearts and a little griffin meat. The other ingredients are sold directly to avoid having to be transported back to Morning Frost Ridge.

"Master, if you sell the prey directly instead of sharing it with the nobles, will this cause dissatisfaction from Earl Thomas?" Fokase whispered.

Sharing the prey is seen as a virtue of generosity. Although no one will say anything if someone keeps the prey for themselves, it will damage the image of the nobility.

Ye Zhi didn't care about the aristocratic image at all. The gold coins were real. He said calmly, "What's the big deal?"

Thomas' target is Hudson. At most he will attack me but he will not really attack Morning Frost Ridge.

What's more, there is a huge disparity in power between the mundane and the extraordinary. A three-ring strongman can defeat an army, and a four-ring strongman can defeat a town.

There is Xilude who is comparable to the fourth ring in Morning Frost Ridge. Ye Zhi relies on this high-ring experience card, and it depends on who dares to offend him.

The steward of the Merchants Guild hurried out to greet him, and when he heard that it was a baron who wanted to sell griffin materials, his eyes widened.

After some bargaining, Ye Zhi got a total of more than 300 gold coins, which was much more valuable than the deer-eagle beast.

"Generous Thomas!" Yeats was secretly pleased. "After sending the deer-eagle beast, he sent the griffin beast now!"

Yeats borrowed the kitchen from the butler again, and went to the back kitchen with Fokasse and Grey. They took out the bloody griffin heart from the wicker basket and began to wash it.

Gray swallowed and said, "Didn't you say we can eat griffin meat? We can also eat the heart?"

Ye Zhi said calmly: "The heart belongs to Phocas, and you and I will eat the griffin leg."

Gray breathed a sigh of relief.

On the contrary, Fokasi's expression was a little serious, but he didn't say anything. He lowered his head and fumbled for the antidote in his arms. Ye Zhi's mouth twitched, and he used the cooking tools as a furnace, and the griffin heart, the material of the magic potion, as the ingredients, and started cooking.

Griffin heart stewed with potatoes, rated three stars. This dish is made of tomatoes, black pepper, broth, onions, potatoes, carrot cubes and diced griffin heart. It is a special food made by Yeats based on Phocas's condition, which can heal his old injuries.

The principle of this dish is similar to that of the "Griffin Potion". It sounds rather mysterious and aims to strengthen the blood supply capacity of the warrior's heart, thereby breaking through the blood blockage and enhancing the circle of life.

Fokas had old injuries in his wrists and knees. Although this medicinal meal could not completely cure them, it was enough to restore them to the second ring level.

Another dish is the spice-roasted griffin leg. This dish has a rating of only two stars and can permanently increase resistance to blunt attacks by a slight amount.

Slices of griffin heart are dipped in a bowl of thick black pepper potato sauce, giving off a rich aroma.

Ye Zhi placed the dish in front of Fokasse and said seriously, "This is what the young master prepared carefully for you. Don't waste a single bite!"

Fokasi took a deep breath, nodded solemnly, picked up the spoon, and began to taste it slowly.

After finishing the whole dish, Fokasi smiled and said, "It's a very delicious dish, Master."

Ye Zhi crossed his arms and chuckled, "Look at your ring of life. Is there any change?"

Hearing this, Fokasi closed his eyes strangely and looked inward at his own soul realm.

In the soul realm, the bottom of the incomplete tree of life seemed to be injected with a golden breath. This golden breath went up along the trunk, nourishing the second ring of life, making the gray incomplete ring glow again!
This is... the second ring? !

Fokas opened his eyes in disbelief.

This situation is very different from when Grey was promoted.

Fokasi returned to the second ring and felt the familiar power surging into his body again, as if he was meeting an old friend again, and his eyes were already filled with tears!

pat.

The spoon in his hand fell to the ground.

"Master...did you make this specially for me?" Fokasi said hoarsely.

Yeats leaned over to pick up the spoon, put it next to Phokas, and smiled:
"Don't be so surprised, it's just a change of potion to medicinal food - it's all the same!"

Sudden.

Phocas stood up, knelt on one knee, placed his fist on the ground, and bowed his head solemnly.

"God of Justice Tyr! Here, I swear - I am willing to defend the honor of Yeats Bronte until my death!"

A silvery-white luster shone on Phocas's plate armor, reflecting Yeats's surprised gaze.

Spell: Sacred Oath.

A knight can only make a sacred oath once in his life, and when he fights in accordance with the oath, he will be blessed by divine power.

But once the knight breaks his oath, the oath will backfire on him and he will pay a heavy price.

Yeats believed that Phocas' last sacred oath was made to his predecessor, the Earl's father, which was automatically dissolved after the Earl's death, and now he swore loyalty to himself.

Ye Zhi helped the old knight up and said with a smile:
"Everyone says you're old, but I see you eat just as much."

Fokasi was stunned, tears in his eyes, he looked up and smiled: "Master, you are absolutely right!"

On the other side.

Gray took a bite of the delicious griffin meat leg and blinked.

That day in Winter Lake City, I heard Ye Zhi say that he wanted to eat griffin meat... I didn't expect that not only would I get to eat it, but it tasted really good!
