About the brave man who became a thousand-year-old potato and ended up destroying the world

But Liu Ji is not in a hurry. In his opinion, it is natural to start from the basics.

And while he was studying, he gradually discovered that this language used for magic incantations was very wonderful. As long as he could repeatedly pronounce the correct syllables, he would naturally begin to understand the meaning behind the syllables.

And the more you read it over and over, the deeper your understanding will be.

After realizing this, he probably understood why Yayin wanted to teach him magic spells.

Maybe the other party wants to communicate with him in this way.

I just always feel that it is quite strange that Yayin is willing to teach him magic just to talk to someone he has never met.

Maybe she had other considerations, but with the language barrier at the moment, Liu Ji was curious and couldn't ask.

While he was learning the incantation, suddenly, there was a rustling sound in the woods not far away.

The two of them looked up and saw the young man with a long knife coming back carrying a big black bear like an elephant.

He looked at Liu Ji and Yayin sitting in a row, then looked around, and asked: "Ayin, where is Osa? Didn't I ask him to guard you?"

"I asked him to cut down the tree," Yayin said, looking at the giant bear on the shoulder of the young man with the sword, "It's been a great harvest, Mowente, do you need me to help you freeze it?"

"Well, wait a minute, I'll peel off the skin first, and then cut off the claws," said the young man with a long knife called Mowente. He found an open piece of grass and braked, leaving the giant bear behind. On the ground, he waved his long knife and began to peel off the skin with quick hands and feet.

Liu Ji stared at the scene in front of him in stunned silence.

So how much does the big bear weigh?

a ton?

Or two tons?

Damn it, this brother looks quite thin, why is he so strong?

Are all people in this world so awesome?

Or is it that the people I met are all really awesome?

Liu Ji suddenly felt lucky. Fortunately, the three people he met seemed to be pretty good people. If he, an innocent young man with no power, really encountered a few murderous and perverted villains, If it's not good, I really have to stop eating.

Ok……

But I shouldn't be so unlucky to meet that kind of person.

Liu Ji, whose thinking was still stuck in his previous life, subconsciously believed that good people still make up the majority in this world.

-

Although this unlucky black bear was very big, it didn't seem that difficult for Mervent, who could easily turn the giant bear over, to peel off its skin completely.

Of course, it can be seen that he himself should be an expert in skin picking.

The bear carcass with its skin removed looked a bit scary. Fortunately, Liu Ji used to go to a spicy hot pot restaurant that sells live rabbits. He had seen many skinned rabbits. Looking at this bear carcass, he just thought it was a large rabbit. , and not much discomfort.

"Such a large piece of leather can be used as a carpet in our new home. We can sleep on it directly without having to find cypress branches to make a bed." Mowente spread the entire peeled bear skin on the grass. Taking up a piece of land from the boss, "I'll leave the cleaning and tanning to you, Yayin."

"Well, it's simple," Yayin said, picked up the wand, and with a tap, several chubby little white furry monsters appeared out of thin air, fell to the ground, and then ran to the One bear skin, one raised a horn, and ran bounding towards the river with the bear skin in his hands.

Mowente looked at the backs of the little furry monsters, crossed his arms, and murmured: "Well, it's convenient to have familiars."

"What, do you want it? Prepare the materials for two and I will give you one," Yayin said.

"Forget it, thinking about those materials makes me feel dizzy," Mo Wente said. He cut off a huge bear's paw with a knife and said while shaking the blood on the knife, "I have My knife is enough."

"Well, it's good. It suits you very well, so please stand a little farther away." Yayin stood up and waved her staff to the side.

Mowente put away his knife, picked up the bear paw he had just chopped off, and walked aside obediently.

Liu Ji's hands were still tied to the pole and he could only sit there, doing pronunciation exercises while looking at the two of them curiously.

After Mowente retreated far away, Yayin raised his staff.

Long and complicated incantations were recited from her mouth, and invisible energy flowed around her body, causing her hair and robe to flutter together.

Liu Ji shivered. Until just now, it still felt like summer here, but just for a moment, he felt as if winter had arrived.

"Would it be possible to catch a cold if the alternation of cold and heat is so severe..." He shrank and thought to himself.

However, the next moment, the cold feeling suddenly disappeared. Looking at Yayin again, she had put down her staff, straightened her robe, and sat back down next to Liu Ji.

The huge bear corpse in the distance was now covered with a thin layer of white frost, and even grains of ice crystals appeared on the grass near it. It was obvious that in just an instant, the entire bear corpse was covered with frost. The temperature dropped below freezing.

"Good guy, it's quick-frozen to keep it fresh," Liu Ji exclaimed.

He was still thinking just now, wouldn't it be a pity if such a big bear couldn't finish eating and let it spoil.

Hmm... I just don't know, will they share the food with themselves?

He glanced at Mowente, who was carrying the bear's paw, and found that the other person was also looking at him.

Then, Mowente smiled at him, then cut off a bloody piece of meat from the bear's paw, walked over, handed it to him, and looked at him expectantly.

Liu Ji looked at the raw meat in his hand and then at Mowente, with a confused look on his face.

What does this mean?

Don’t everyone in your world eat so freshly?

10. Don’t ask, ask and it will be all right

Liu Ji has never eaten raw meat in his life.

As someone from an ordinary Chinese family who grew up eating in canteens, in Liu Ji's recipe, the meat must be cooked.

Don't tell him medium-rare or medium-rare. He also eats steak well-done.

What does well-done taste bad? I don’t know, it doesn’t exist. For him, if the well-done version of this steakhouse doesn’t taste good, he will just choose not to come next time, and he will not order medium-rare. .

Even though this was a foreign world, he didn't intend to eat the bear's paw meat raw.

It just so happened that he was not a person who liked to eat and drink for free. After some hard work, he succeeded in getting some kitchen utensils from Yayin.

Although it actually only consists of a pot, a knife, a cutting board, a few wooden bowls, and a small bag of salt.

Although it is simple, it is enough to make a meal.

As for the stove, fortunately, he used to like watching Huanong's videos. As long as someone can help light the fire, it is not a problem to get a simple stone stove.

Seeing Liu Ji busy around the fire, Mo Wente and Ya Yin looked at each other.

"Tell me the truth, did you just think of him as a savage who can eat raw meat?" Yayin asked with a speechless face.

"Uh, aha," Mervent spread his hands, "After all, he can't even speak, can he?"

"I've told you, it's not that he can't speak, he just has a language barrier," Yayin sighed, "When we first met, he only tried to communicate with us in four or five languages. I remember that you Can you speak dragon language and common language?"

"Uh...is that so? It seems I was wrong," Mowente touched his chin.

"Forget it, don't do that next time, it's really rude," Yayin said, "Fortunately, he doesn't seem to care."

"I know, but I wanted to say it before," Mowente said with a subtle expression, crossing his arms, "Are you a little too concerned about this potato man of unknown origin?"

"I should have said before, we need a guide," Yain said with a frown.

"Then why does it have to be him? Shouldn't we try to find other people?" Mowente said, "Maybe there will be people here who understand our language, and just because of this, you have to teach him magic. Don't you think this Is the reason a bit far-fetched?"

"So, you want to say that we should leave here and look for anyone else somewhere else?" Yayin looked at Mowente with a subtle expression, "It seems I made a mistake? I thought you were the one who wanted to stay the most. There are people waiting for Callidora nearby.”

"No, that's true, but..." Mo Wente was speechless for a moment and scratched his bangs anxiously, "I just feel that for such a stranger of unknown origin, you wouldn't teach him how to use magic, right? "

"What? If you teach him how to rub fireballs, will he be able to beat you or me?" Yayin raised an eyebrow.

"That's not what I meant," Mo Wente said, "I just thought, aren't you afraid that he has evil intentions?"

"You should know that I am a demon spirit," Yain said with a frown.

"You are only a half-demon spirit, and your perception talent is not complete," Mowente said, "otherwise your teacher wouldn't know how to..."

"what?"

A cold question interrupted Mowente's words, and the sudden drop in temperature seemed like winter was coming.

Liu Ji, who had just finished working on the stove, immediately shivered. When he turned around, he saw Ya Yin's robe fluttering, and the flowers and plants under his feet were freezing into ice at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"No, I'm sorry, that's not what I meant," Mowente took a step back, "I just made a slip of the tongue, you understand..."

"Yes, I understand very well," Yayin said, taking a long breath from between her teeth.

The next moment, the low temperature just disappeared without a trace as if it had never appeared before, and the ice crystals on the flowers and grass under Ya Yin's feet also began to slowly dissipate.

She was silent for a moment and then said: "Mowente, you have to understand that I am different from you..."

"No, we are no different," Mervent shook his head.

"No, you still have Callidora," Ayin smiled weakly, "And what about me? I have nothing left."

"You..." Mowente opened his mouth, but he didn't know how to speak.

"So, please leave me alone, okay," Yayin sighed softly, "I just want to cover myself in memories, that's all, okay?"

Mowente was silent for a while and said, "I'll go take a look at the border."

After saying that, he walked straight into the forest and disappeared deep into the forest.

-

Looking at Mowente walking away, Liu Ji was a little confused.

He didn't understand a word and couldn't figure out what happened. He knew that the two people seemed to have had a quarrel, and then Mowente left.

It can't be a breakup, right?

This...should have nothing to do with him, right?

He didn't know, and he couldn't ask. He looked back at Ya Yin and found that she was writing and drawing in a notebook again...

It seems like it has nothing to do with him.

In this case, he didn't think much about it.

I don’t know how many years I haven’t eaten meat. Now he is hungry, not hungry, but really greedy.

After setting up the earthen stove and cutting the bear meat into small pieces, Liu Ji gestured to Yain and asked her to turn it into a pot of water.

After the water boiled, he blanched the bear meat in the pot, skimmed off the floating residue, and scooped it up.

While the blanched meat was drying, Liu Ji scooped out a large bowl of soup from the pot as a spare.

As for the remaining water, just pour it away.

Since there was no spatula, Liu Ji went to pick up a few small branches of uniform thickness nearby, washed them and used them as chopsticks.

Then, he threw the fat that had been cut aside and put it aside into the pot, stir-fried it with branch chopsticks, and after the oil was refined, fished out the oil residue.

At this time, he added the cut bear meat and stir-fried it until it changes color. Then he added water and covered it. After the fire was boiled, he turned to medium heat and simmered. After it was cooked, he added some salt. The meal of braised bear meat was complete. .

Well, burnt in vain.

There was no other way, Liu Ji also wanted to braise it, but conditions did not allow it.

After a slight taste, the mutton smell is a bit strong, but the flaws are not concealed. Although it is impossible to expect the complex aroma of modern dishes that relies on a variety of spices, the pure meat aroma is still sufficient.

At least for Liu Ji, who hasn't eaten meat for who knows how many years, this taste is already great.

Ok……

It tastes great...

Moreover, there is an inexplicable urge...

Liu Ji realized what this impulse was about almost instantly.

He turned around and glanced at Ya Yin behind him, swallowed, and forced back the impulse.

No, this matter is not suitable for experiment now, we should wait until the night is quiet.

There is a lot of meat in a whole bear paw, enough to fill a pot.

Liu Ji scooped out two full bowls of meat and then covered the pot.

There is still more than half of the pot in the pot, which should be enough for the remaining two brothers to come back.

"Here," Liu Ji walked to Yayin and handed one of the bowls to her.

Yayin looked up at him, said a short word, then put away the notebook and took the bowl.

"The pronunciation just now should mean thank you?" Liu Jiru thought, holding a bowl and sitting next to Yayin, and handed over two branches out of habit.
