Chapter 247: I recently watched the Black God Chapter: Eating Horses, and I thought of a question: I
Link spent the whole morning hunting the Scarlet Tengumon, and it was almost time for lunch when he got home. Lunch consisted of sweet and sour pork, dumpling soup, and eggplant can that Honey had carefully prepared.
The sweet and sour pork is made with the best pork tenderloin, the flour for the dumpling soup is ground by Link himself, and the eggplant is a specialty of Berna Village.
Looking at Honey busy in the kitchen, Link turned his gaze to the pot.
The meat in the pot rolled happily in the oil, emitting an enticing aroma.
The dumpling soup next to it was slowly stewing, with a thin layer of white foam floating on the surface of the soup, which looked very delicious.
The eggplant pot was quietly emitting a rich aroma on the side of the stove.
Every piece of meat in the pot was covered with a golden and crispy crust. Seeing that it was almost cooked, Link picked up the chopsticks and reached into the pot.
The meat was steaming in the pot, the crust was making a pleasant sizzling sound, and exuding an enticing aroma.
Link picked up a piece, blew it to cool it down, and put it in his mouth.
In an instant, the crispy shell made a crisp sound in your mouth, followed by the tender and juicy meat filling your mouth.
"How's it going, meow?"
Honey looked at him expectantly.
Link closed his eyes and took a deep breath, smiling contentedly.
“It’s delicious. Even though it hasn’t been seasoned yet, it’s still delicious.”
Of course, Link didn't eat sweet and sour pork this way. He had to add vinegar and sugar to season it. What he ate was just a semi-finished crispy meat.
In the past, there were many ways to eat sweet and sour pork. Sweet and sour and salty are the most traditional. Those who like it can also pair it with ketchup.
Of course, there are also some weird sauces such as blueberry, orange juice, pineapple, etc., but Link has never tried them.
The sweet and sour pork was not yet out of the oven, so Link scooped a bowl of dumpling soup from another pot.
There is a water mill in the backyard of Link's house, which can be used to grind flour.
Although dumpling soup is a home-cooked dish, if it is not cooked well, it can easily turn into rice and flour paste.
Take a sip of the soup, open the eggplant can, pick up a piece of shrimp and put it in your mouth. It’s so delicious.
The shrimps had the fragrance of eggplant, were soft, tender, fragrant and delicious, and tasted amazing. Chuchu’s little head almost went into the bowl.
After dinner, Link went to the guild, handed in his quest, and collected his spoils.
The captured Scarlet Tengumon was taken away by the guild staff. Link didn't know what its future would be, but he received a lot of materials from the inventory.
He sent the materials to the blacksmith shop to make a hunting bow.
[Scarlet Heaven Tool: Light Bow Aizen]
The weapon used by Huoya is the Vow Bow, which is a sister bow to the one Link is preparing to make. Both are made of materials from the Tengumon clan.
This is a hunting bow with explosive properties. When used with a blasting bottle, it can make the shot arrows explode and cause tons of damage to monsters.
In addition, there is a large tail that has been completely shaved and deboned.
If you were to ask which part of Tengumon is the most delicious, it would definitely be the huge tail that is extremely flexible and like a third hand.
It just looks a bit creepy. If you put the whole thing in the pot and cook it, you might think you are cooking a human hand.
To this end, Link carefully removed the bones and cut the meat, beat the meat into foam, and kneaded it into plump meatballs, chopped the tailbone into sections, and boiled it into broth.
Have hotpot in the evening.
Hotpot needs more people to enjoy it, so Link made a special trip and called the two sisters Huoya and Shuiyun.
As the sky gradually darkened, Link was busy in the kitchen, preparing ingredients for the hot pot in the evening.
It is impossible to eat only meatballs when eating hot pot, other side dishes are also necessary.
The soup has been simmering since the afternoon. It takes at least a few hours to boil a pot of broth. Now it’s time for dinner, so we can start cooking right away.
"smell good."
Huoya sat at the table, raised her hand and fanned it, sending the tempting aroma into her nose, with a look of curiosity on her face.
Shuiyun didn't say anything. She picked up a piece of hot tofu from the pot and put it into the bowl. After it was coated with a thin layer of sauce, she put it into her mouth.
The sauce is Link's special mushroom seafood sauce.
As soon as she took a bite, Shuiyun immediately felt the rich and delicious taste lingering in her mouth. The softness of the tofu and the salty fragrance of the sauce complemented each other, making her smile with satisfaction.
"This is delicious, sister, you should try it too."
Shuiyun picked up a piece of tofu from the pot and put it into Huoya's bowl, looking at Huoya with a smile on her face.
Huoya looked at her sister's expectant eyes and couldn't help but smile. She imitated her sister's previous behavior, rolling the tofu in the bowl and then bringing it to her mouth.
When she took a bite, the fresh fragrance and smooth taste intertwined together made her squint her eyes.
"Mm, it's delicious. Little Link's cooking skills are so good, he will definitely marry a beautiful wife in the future."
"..."
When he heard about getting married, Link immediately lowered his head, ate in silence, and said nothing.
He had never expected that after finally escaping those relatives who urged him to get married in his previous life, he would still be brought up about this in this life.
He is only eighteen. It is too early to get married at this age.
Although there is no legal age for marriage in the other world, and it is common for people to get married and have children at the age of fifteen, he is an adult with ideals and ambitions. How can he easily step into the grave called marriage?
"Hehe, why is little Link silent? Are you shy? Tell me what kind of wife you would like to marry. I will help you find one."
Seeing Link lower his head, Huoya thought he was shy and immediately started to tease him.
"..."
Link didn't reply, but picked up his chopsticks faster, as if to say, "I'm busy eating, don't bother me."
Although his bowl had been empty for a long time, it did not stop him from playing dumb.
Fortunately, Huoya was just in a good mood. Seeing that Link didn't reply and was just busy eating, her appetite was aroused. She quickly forgot about the topic and scooped a spoonful of hot soup and a few meatballs from the pot and slowly tasted them.
Huoya poked the freshly cooked meatballs with chopsticks, her eyes flashing with anticipation.
The meatballs floated in the bowl, with a slight sheen of oil on the surface, looking particularly tempting.
She gently put it into her mouth and instantly felt the chewy texture blooming on the tip of her tongue.
The outer layer of the meatballs is made of delicate minced meat, which becomes soft and tender after being cooked in hot pot, and the fresh juice inside is even more surprising.
With a light bite, the juice immediately gushed out, mixed with the delicious aroma of the soup base, exploding in her mouth like a small delicious bomb.
"It's delicious. Shuiyun, you should try it too. And Xiao Linke, you should have one too."
These two sisters are worthy of being twins. They always think of each other when they have something delicious. Fortunately, Huoya did not forget Link as the host, otherwise he would feel that he was redundant.
A pair of chopsticks reached out from the side and put a piece of peeled shrimp into Link's bowl. He turned his head and found that it was Chuchu, the cat, who was peeling the shrimp for him.
"A cat that can peel shrimp for its owner. Damn, this world is so great."
After roaring in his heart, Link put the shrimp into his mouth.
Three people and two cats were immersed in the food, enjoying the hot and fragrant hot pot while laughing and talking about various interesting things. In such an atmosphere, they finished the whole pot of food without realizing it.
"Thank you for your hospitality, Xiao Link. We'll go back first. By the way, if there's a girl you like, remember to tell me. I'll help you find a matchmaker."
Before leaving, Huoya did not forget to make a joke to Link, which earned him a roll of the eyes.
"Okay, if that girl is as pretty as Sister Huoya, I promise to marry her."
"Hmm."
Hearing this, Huoya's cheeks suddenly puffed up, she took Shuiyun's hand, held up the umbrella, turned around and walked into the rain.
Link shrugged.
What is the best way to deal with elders urging you to get married? The answer is to marry someone like her, and make sure she keeps her mouth shut.
"Go to sleep. I'll practice using the rifle tomorrow. I haven't used it for so long that I almost forgot how to use it."
Link leaned back slightly, and as he stretched, a lazy aura spread out.
There is not much entertainment in this world, and eating and sleeping at night is the norm for most single people.
As for those married men and women...
Making little people is their nightly entertainment.
-
Nothing happened that night. The next day, Link got up very late. It was still raining outside. When he was not working, he would lose motivation when it rained and had no energy to do anything.
After getting up and having breakfast, he lay back on the tatami and even skipped today's training.
"Well, take a day off and start working hard again tomorrow."
As he spoke, Link picked up a book from the bedside and began to read it, nodding from time to time, looking immersed in it.
