The Mythical Version of the Three Kingdoms: The Evil God Arrives

Chapter 470 Shooting yourself in the foot

Zhuge Liang thought for a while and said, "Then why don't we find a chef to transform all the life essence of the ingredients into soup that is more easily absorbed by the human body?" Because he had seen the cook in Chen Xi's family make soup with ingredients that were difficult for ordinary people to absorb, so this was the first method he thought of.

"You just need to find a chef who can handle these ingredients. I won't take care of anything else, and the governor won't take care of this either." Guan Hai shook his head. He was only here to convey Yang Ji's order. As for how the trio would complete Yang Ji's order, that was not his concern.

"Shiyuan, it's your turn. Don't you know the chef in the city? How about letting him prepare the ingredients?" Zhuge Liang turned and asked Pang Tong.

"If you want to ruin Chef Wang's reputation, just say so directly. Is there any need to resort to such insidious tactics?" Pang Tong said unhappily. He didn't believe that Zhuge Liang couldn't tell the difference between Chef Wang's cooking skills and Chen Ying's.

Who is Chen Ying? He is the best chef in Han Dynasty who can sublimate his spiritual talent in cooking. What about the chef Wang they met in Linxiang? He is just the chef Wang Wu. He can be called a chef in a place like Linxiang because Wang Wu came back from Fenggao for further studies.

"Then tell me who should we ask to handle these ingredients. We can't send someone to Fenggao to invite Chef Chen from Marquis Chen's house, right?" Zhuge Liang looked at Pang Tong and said. He didn't want to ask Wang Wu to handle these world-breaking ingredients, but in Linxiang, Wang Wu's cooking skills were probably the best. At least Wang Wu had really stayed in Fenggao for some time.

"But even if you find Wang Wu, he won't be able to handle these ingredients. These are world-breaking ingredients. He's an ordinary person, how can you ask him to handle them?" Pang Tong scratched his head. What he said was true. This level of ingredients is not something that everyone can handle.

"Then what do you think we should do? We can't just put it in the pot to make soup?" Zhuge Liang's head began to hurt. He never expected that he would be stumped by a small problem in food processing.

"How about we go ask the commander-in-chief?" Sima Yi encouraged Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong from the side. They had no way of handling these world-breaking ingredients, but that didn't mean Yang Ji had no way of handling them.

"If you want to go, go ahead. I won't embarrass myself in front of the governor." Pang Tong turned his head and angrily asked Sima Yi why he didn't go to find Yang Ji himself.

"Tsk, didn't I give you a solution?" Sima Yi asked back. He had already given you a solution, so why did he have to execute it? This was very unfair to him.

"Maybe we can look for Doctor Zhang and Master Nan Dou." Zhuge Liang said thoughtfully. He was just thinking about finding a chef who could handle world-breaking ingredients, but he actually forgot that he could let others handle the ingredients first and then let the chef cook them.

"!" Sima Yi and Pang Tong, who had been arguing about who should go to find Yang Ji, suddenly realized. They looked at each other with disgust, and then immediately said to Zhuge Liang that they could go to Zhang Zhongjing and Nan Dou for a solution.

"Will you two go together?" Zhuge Liang looked at the two men curiously. Sima Yi and Pang Tong said it at the same time just now, so he naturally thought that the two men wanted to go together to find Zhang Zhongjing and Nan Dou.

"Who wants to go with him?" Sima Yi and Pang Tong said at the same time. After hearing the other party say the same thing as themselves, they looked at each other with disgust again.

"Then who will go?" Zhuge Liang fanned the flames with a smile on his face. It would be better for these two guys to fight here. In this way, he would not have to be caught between them.

"I'll go see Doctor Zhang." Sima Yi said.

"I'm going to find the Immortal Master Nan Dou." Pang Tong said.

"..." Zhuge Liang's expression froze. Why didn't these two guys play by the rules? They actually chose one person to look for another person.

"No, only one of you can go. There are still many things to be dealt with at the government office. If both of you go, I can't handle so much work by myself." Zhuge Liang rejected the ideas of Sima Yi and Pang Tong without hesitation.

"Kong Ming, don't worry. Just ask Doctor Zhang for a prescription for processing world-breaking ingredients. It won't take much time." Sima Yi said calmly.

"Yes, it doesn't take much time at all to persuade Master Nan Dou to work with us. You don't have to worry about how much time I will spend." Pang Tong said somewhat unhappily. He was actually one step slower than Sima Yi.

"Okay, it was my fault for not thinking it through. I actually forgot about this matter. Then you two should go and come back early. I will go and publicize this matter first." Zhuge Liang suppressed his inner desire to add fuel to the fire and quickly told them that he was going to withdraw now. Seeing that the two of them were singing the same tune, it was obvious that they realized that he, Zhuge Liang, was adding fuel to the fire.

After seeing Zhuge Liang leave in a hurry, Sima Yi and Pang Tong looked at each other, turned away with disgust, and then left to ask Zhang Zhongjing and Nan Dou for the recipe for processing boundary-breaking ingredients.

Guan Hai stood there and watched the trio's performance with an expressionless face. After the trio left, he turned around to respond to Yang Ji's order.

Originally, Guan Hai thought that he would meet Pang Tong when he found Yang Ji to reply to the order. However, when he returned to the altar, he found that Zhang Zhongjing and Liu Biao were no longer on the altar, and even Kuai Yue and others under the altar were gone. Only Yang Ji was left resting in a corner of the altar.

"Commander-in-chief, the order has been issued to Zhuge Changshi, Sima Canjun and Pang Canjun." Guan Hai came in front of Yang Ji and said.

"Who are they going to ask to handle those ingredients?" Yang Ji asked curiously. He knew very well how difficult it was for ordinary chefs to handle the boundary-breaking ingredients.

Don’t be fooled by the fact that the warriors in the late stage can just throw the world-breaking ingredients to the chef for processing or cook them in a pot and eat them. In fact, the chefs in the middle and late stages have already developed a set of methods specifically for processing such high-level ingredients.

However, in the surface world at this point in time, let alone boundary-breaking level ingredients, even half a boundary-breaking level creature cannot be found. However, a few warriors and creatures who are moving towards boundary-breaking level creatures can be found.

Yang Ji had already thought of this problem when he asked Guan Hai to convey the order to the trio, so he specifically asked Guan Hai to explain the matter to the trio, asking them to pay attention to it and think about how to solve it.

Although the chefs at this stage have not come into contact with boundary-breaking ingredients, there is no shortage of people who can handle boundary-breaking ingredients on site. After a warrior at the level of internal energy leaving the body uses his own internal energy to crush all the remaining will in the boundary-breaking ingredients, the ingredients can be handed over to the chef for cooking.

However, Zhuge Liang and the others might not know that a martial artist with internal energy can use his own internal energy to cleanse the remaining will in the food, so Yang Ji decided that the trio still had to come to him, which was why he stayed here. However, it seemed that the trio did not intend to ask him for a solution, and did not ask Guan Hai to help deal with it, which made Yang Ji a little curious. What method did the trio want to use to deal with those boundary-breaking ingredients?

"General Sima went to find Doctor Zhang, General Pang went to find Immortal Master Nan Dou, and Chief Clerk Zhuge went to publicize the matter." Guan Hai revealed the whereabouts of the trio.

"Doctor Zhang and Nan Dou Immortal Master?" Yang Ji was puzzled at first, then suddenly realized, "So this is the solution."

Yang Ji's focus was basically on the warriors whose internal energy left their bodies, and he almost forgot that there were two doctors and immortals on the scene who could give recipes for processing world-breaking ingredients.

"Okay, since they have their own ideas, I won't get involved." Yang Ji smiled and said to Guan Hai, "Let's go, take the remaining fresh ingredients to find the chef in the barracks and ask him to grill a few skewers for me. Use the rest to make soup and share it with the brothers in the barracks tomorrow morning."

"Yes." Guan Hai, with some excitement, called dozens of brothers to carry the fresh meat that had been cut earlier to find the cooks in the military camp. As for whether the cooks in the military camp could cook these world-breaking ingredients into soup in one night, that was not Guan Hai's business. He only had to drink the soup tomorrow morning.

After Guan Hai left, a memory about the method of processing boundary-breaking ingredients emerged from the depths of Yang Ji's mind: "It seems that even if a boundary-breaking beast evil god is cooked in a pressure cooker, it will take a month or so for the internal energy to condense and digest it..."

The corner of Yang Ji's mouth twitched. He finally remembered what he had overlooked just now. It was possible to cook the boundary-breaking ingredients in one night, but it was not possible to make it digestible by ordinary people. One night was simply impossible. It would take at least a month to stew it.

"Hiss, this time I've shot myself in the foot." Yang Ji had a headache. Although using internal energy to flush the ingredients could clean out the remaining will in the ingredients and make the ingredients much easier to handle, if he wanted ordinary people to be able to digest it, it would only be possible under the catalysis of time.

“Forget it, I’ll go and handle it myself. Since ordinary people can’t bite it and can’t digest it, can I extract the life essence contained in the food?” Yang Ji was a little unsure whether his method of extracting the life essence would work.

However, apart from extracting the essence of life, Yang Ji couldn't think of any good way to allow ordinary people and soldiers with a normal level of internal energy condensation to drink the broth he promised tomorrow morning.

At the same time, Sima Yi and Pang Tong, who went to find Zhang Zhongjing and Nan Dou, also learned from Zhang Zhongjing and Nan Dou how long it would take to process the boundary-breaking ingredients to a level that ordinary people could easily digest.

However, Yang Ji's order was to let ordinary people nearby enjoy the benefits tomorrow, and Zhuge Liang had already gone to inform the nearby people about this matter.

"..." Sima Yi and Pang Tong were really confused this time. They now understood why Yang Ji asked Guan Hai to come and convey the order and specifically mentioned this matter.

"Doctor Zhang, is there no way for us brothers to fulfill this promise within three days?" Sima Yi asked Zhang Zhongjing with some expectation.

They could still fool around for three days, and could barely hold out for seven days, but there was no way they could do it for a month. In a month, they would have already reached Jiaozhou or headed for Yanzhou.

"Go find the guy who proposed to redeem the benefits tomorrow. Don't bother me here." Zhang Zhongjing drove Sima Yi away irritably. There was no way he could cook the boundary-breaking ingredients to a level that even ordinary people could easily digest in just one night.

"Master Nan Dou, don't you have any solution?" Pang Tong asked Nan Dou in a daze. He also learned some bad news from Nan Dou.

"I do have ways to make the internal energy leave the body and to improve the digestibility of Qi through training, but I really have no way to deal with ordinary people." Nan Dou said somewhat embarrassedly. He had just vowed that he would be able to solve the problem Pang Tong encountered, but in the end he was directly defeated.

"How about I tell you a fortune and see who can solve this problem?" Looking at Pang Tong's pale face, Nan Dou felt a little embarrassed, so he decided to use the immortal's unique divination technique.

Pang Tong's eyes lit up, and he immediately asked Nan Dou, "Can you figure it out?"

"Don't worry about that. My Nandou's divination skills are among the best among the immortals." Nandou said very proudly, and he was almost saying that his divination skills were the best among the immortals.

"Please help me, Master Nan Dou." Pang Tong saluted Nan Dou seriously. Although he used to think that immortals were all people from the serious wards, Pang Tong now feels that immortals are quite... useful and have not left the serious wards.

"Okay, okay." A bright smile appeared on Nan Dou's face. It was not easy to get these arrogant and spiritually gifted wise men to ask them for help.

"..." Nan Dou was somewhat skeptical about what he had divined, and he started a new game of divination out of disbelief.

"...General Pang can go find the Grand Commander. He has a way to solve this problem." Nan Dou said to Pang Tong expressionlessly.

"So fast?" Pang Tong's eyes widened. He thought it would take some time for Nan Dou to tell the fortune, but it didn't even take a minute for Nan Dou to get the result. He was indeed worthy of being an immortal who was one of the best in divination.

"General Pang, please go quickly, otherwise you will meet someone you don't want to meet." Nan Dou said with a forced smile.

"!" Pang Tong immediately guessed who Nan Dou was talking about. "Thank you, Master Nan Dou. I will definitely reward you in the future." After hurriedly saluting, Pang Tong ran to find Yang Ji.

After making sure that Pang Tong was gone, Nan Dou said with deep sorrow: "Alas, what a pity, a favor of no small magnitude is gone just like that."
