hunt and eat

Chapter 284

"Nice little girl, she has qualities that many young people don't have in recent years."

In the judging panel, the eldest elder of Yanhuo Village, Fengrui, looked at Nia who was concentrating on peeling the skin of the meaty eggplant, and stroked her beard appreciatively.

This old man who has lived for several centuries and can be regarded as an elder even among the dragon people can't appreciate those young hunters with precious qualities the most.

In contrast, sitting next to him, a short old man with a serious face had the opposite attitude.

"But she is still doomed, isn't she?" Yun Juanshu, the head of Jieyun Village, rolled his eyes angrily, and said to his old friend: "The difference in skills cannot be resolved simply by quality. of."

"Maybe so, but...sometimes miracles do happen, don't they?"

Sui Fengren seemed to have thought of something, and sighed deeply.

He has seen too much, both good and bad.

But no matter which time, those small miracles always shocked his old heart greatly.

Just like when he was young, he took Yun Juanshu and a few friends out of Xiqi Kingdom for the first time, and really saw the whole world.

"It's useless without time." Yun Juanshu was obviously not too cold about this, and his face still had a serious expression.

Sui Fengren has long been accustomed to this, and he didn't even bother to refute the first half sentence.

This old bastard is a rock, and it's useless to say anything to him.

So the best way to deal with it is to ignore him, and he will misfire himself.

However, the village head of Jieyun Village today seems to have a special desire to express himself. He patted the table and said eloquently:

"Even if it is my granddaughter, I have spent 40 years cultivating and inspecting it, and it is only barely reaching the level where I can succeed me."

"Her aptitude has surpassed most people, let alone others."

Although Yun Juanshu's tone was very disappointed, Sui Fengren could still hear his faint pride.

After all, the old man's sternness and inhumanity are all too clear to him, and he can recognize it... It seems that the little girl from back then has indeed grown a lot now.

"That's great, you have a successor." Sui Fengren said enviously when he thought of Yanhuo Village, which is currently neglected.

Ever since the previous village chief went to investigate the truth of the Bailong Yexing riot and disappeared inexplicably, there has been no one who can take the lead in Yanhuo Village. To be honest, it is indeed a bit worrying.

Although the two little girls in my village were lucky enough to enter the reserve of the Gulong regiment this year, they were 100 years too early.

Besides, with their temperaments, it would be considered a high incense if they don't cause trouble for themselves.

"Isn't there a Puxian from the ancient dragon regiment in your village? That kid who shouts "Bright Flames" all day long is only in his forties this year. Can't we let him come back?"

Yun Juanshu gave Sui Fengren a strange look.

"The kid's strength is still on the rise, and he hasn't reached the bottleneck yet. There's no need to delay him."

"You...you are such a good old man, you deserve to be so tired." Shaking his head, Yun Juanshu, consciously or not, mentioned another matter in the blink of an eye.

"Since you mentioned the younger generation just now, I happen to have something that has been on my mind for a long time. I will take this opportunity to ask you clearly."

"What?" Sui Fengren looked at the other party in surprise.

"The pair of twin witches in your village are really not your granddaughter?"

"They look too similar to Feng Xing."

Feng Xing is the daughter of Sui Fengren, who passed away almost 50 years ago.

Facing his friend's question, Sui Fengren, who had been smiling all the time, showed a rare expression of pain on his face.

"It's really not...you should know how Feng Xing died."

"Do you miss 【Jian Mieqing】? Eh..." Yun Juanshu actually wanted to talk about the burial, but considering his friend's emotions, he deliberately didn't mention it.

Even he knows how to deal with the world.

After the defeat of Annihilation Qing, there were countless hunters who lost all hope. Because they could not accept the reality, they either killed themselves, or fell ill with longing, or went to the final battlefield and never returned.

Such a character...it's really a pity.

……

on the field at this time
Nia's work on [Meaty Eggplant] is still in progress in an orderly manner.

In order not to cut through the layer of fat hidden under the hair-thick skin, the girl almost tried her best, and used slow and firm techniques to stroke down along the texture of Eggplant's body.

Whether it is a point faster or a bit slower, it may cause the rhythm of peeling to be disrupted, and the previous efforts will be wasted.

This is a consideration of skill and talent, as well as a contest of perseverance and mentality.

As far as the degree of difficulty is concerned, it is not at all lower than the difficulty of hunting she has participated in in the past.

It's not that Nia didn't have hesitant thoughts in her heart.

For example, why does the store manager of [Whale House] recommend me to participate in this kind of cooking competition that gathers experts, and why I, a hunter who is not prepared to develop in depth in cooking, wants to compete with those famous chefs here...

There are too many reasons to persuade her to give up, and too many excuses to make her stop the kitchen knife naturally, but...

I don't know why, but from the moment she got on the cooking table, she inexplicably didn't want to lose!
Nia is very clear that she is not a stubborn person, and after that incident, her competitive spirit is not too strong compared to her peers.

But... the complicated emotions in her chest made it impossible for her to yell out the word "give up" so easily without doing her best.

Probably because cooking is the only thing I really like besides hunting.

If you just give up on this matter, maybe you will really become a boring guy.

After understanding her inner thoughts, Nia's eyes became firmer, and her hand holding the kitchen knife became stronger.

As the eggplant skin was peeled off bit by bit, Nia's movements became faster and faster. In just a few minutes, she changed from a HD toddler to a skilled worker who had learned the art for more than ten years.

Under the surprised gaze of a contestant on the side, Nia completely completed the work of peeling the meaty eggplant, then inserted and turned the knife, and with a few breaths, she completely peeled off the inner layer of fat. Pulled down.

The speed is almost inhuman.

At the same time, the slightly illusory white smoke also rapidly spread out from Nia's body, rose upwards, and finally formed a crooked long and narrow column of smoke, which continued to spread towards the sky.

In an instant, Nia became the focus of attention.
