Chapter 289 Villagers and Girls

On a forest path late at night, a carriage stopped under a tree.

In the woods to the right, a pile of firewood crackled and burned, lighting up the surrounding night.

Daphne followed Chen Li's suggestion to grill the meat, and soon smelled the aroma of barbecue mixed with woody aroma.

When a handful of salt is sprinkled, crystal salt grains shimmer on the slightly burnt skin of the pigeon legs, and the color and fragrance are permeated, which is very attractive.

"Eat."

Chen Li smiled.

"Ah."

It was the first time for Daphne to have a barbecue outdoors, so the experience felt very strange.

This pigeon was captured by Chen Li in the sky not long ago. For him who can control the world, hunting is just a matter of thought, and the world will naturally help him catch what he wants.

Of course, Chen Li had also seen the pigeon before catching it. There was no sign that the pigeon was raised by anyone, and there was no mark on it, so he judged it to be wild before catching it.

When the pigeon meat enters the mouth and bites through the crispy skin, what follows is tender and juicy meat. In addition, Chen Li uses the power of heaven and earth to penetrate the salt before grilling, so it is very delicious.

"It's delicious!" Daphne praised: "I didn't expect that the young master is not only talented in playing the piano and painting, but also in cooking."

However, after she finished speaking, she felt that she had said the wrong thing and couldn't help but fell silent for a moment.

In this world, being able to cook is not something that can be praised.

Because, among the nobility, only servants are responsible for cooking.

If you told a nobleman that his cooking skills were great in front of him, it would most likely be considered an insult.

Among nobles, if anyone admits that he can cook, he may be laughed at.

Chen Li also thought about this problem and said with a smile: "Thank you, don't look at me like this, I am actually very interested in cooking."

"In my dreams, I often cook, and what I'm teaching you now is also something I learned in my dreams."

He comforted Daphne and said, "In my opinion, being able to cook is something to be proud of."

"So don't feel like you said anything wrong."

He looked at Daphne's somewhat relieved eyes and said softly: "You are not wrong, it is the world that is wrong."

What's wrong is this world...

After hearing these words, Daphne suddenly seemed to see something.

I couldn't help but be shocked.

Could it be that the young master wants to...

Before she could think about it, Chen Li suddenly looked to the left.

"somebody is coming."

Daphne immediately came back to her senses, listened carefully, and indeed heard the sound of footsteps coming not far away, and getting closer and closer.

Judging from the sound, there was more than one person coming.

About thirty seconds later, both Chen Li and Daphne saw who it was.

There were two men and two women among them.

One boy and one girl looked about 30 years old, and the remaining boy and girl looked about the same age as Chen Li, both around 14 years old.

They were dressed simply, and they all held unsheathed swords in their hands. The largest man carried a bamboo basket on his back that could hold two Chen Li.

They were surprised when they saw Chen Li's appearance.

This boy is so good-looking...

However, what immediately shocked them even more was the badge worn on Chen Li's left chest.

They couldn't identify what pattern it was on, and they didn't know what pattern corresponded to what family, but as long as anyone wore a badge on their chest, they were all nobles. As long as they are nobles, they must be treated with caution, so as not to anger the other party and cause trouble.

"grown ups."

So, after discovering that Chen Li was a noble, the two people, who were obviously husband and wife, took the lead in being respectful.

Behind him, a young girl who was similar in age to Chen Li but had a mature look on her face that was different from her age also lowered her head and bent down.

However, they soon discovered that there was a force pushing their bodies to prevent them from bending down, but instead made their backs straighten.

They looked at Chen Li and then at Daphne who stood up warily after seeing them, and immediately understood what it meant.

Although they have no magic qualifications, their family all has the talent to become swordsmen, and they are the only family in their village whose entire family are swordsmen.

At this moment, they couldn't detect the magic power. The power of the nobles in front of them must be so powerful that they couldn't detect it.

"You don't have to do this to me." Chen Li said, "Just say it. What are you doing here?"

Seeing that the noble boy in front of them seemed to be easy to talk to, they immediately breathed a sigh of relief and suppressed their regrets about coming.

The man said: "We are the guards of Zhaita Village. We were patrolling the surrounding area and found that several lion-horned beasts suddenly appeared near the forest. Moreover, they were violent and attacked people when they saw them. They ran around as if they were looking for something."

"For the safety of the village, we were going out to hunt this lion-horned beast. We happened to see a fire here, so we came to remind us of the news."

Hearing this, Chen Li nodded to express his understanding.

Outside the major cities in the empire, the places where humans gather the most are villages and towns.

Ancient and backward groups like tribes can only be found in poor places outside the empire.

In these forests, monsters are actually not uncommon, but most of the monsters that can appear here are harmless and weak monsters.

It's a little weird to see a monster like the lion horned beast that is not easy to mess with at first sight.

"Thanks for reminding."

Chen Li smiled and said: "I know, I will pay attention to it later."

Seeing Chen Li's smile, the boy and girl standing behind them were stunned for a moment.

The other person's smile is contagious, even a simple smile is full of quality and etiquette, making people feel more friendly.

Whether it was their clothes, appearance, etiquette or the strength that quietly held them all up, they all showed that the noble boy in front of them was not simple.

In comparison, they looked at themselves and saw that their palms were covered with calluses from holding swords for many years, and there were even mud stuck to their clothes. Even the swords they used were bought from the village after melting an abandoned boiler used for cooking. Made by a blacksmith, he couldn't help but feel ashamed, and some didn't dare to look at the nobleman in front of him who was similar in age to himself and others.

"Okay." The man said, "Then we won't disturb you."

After saying that, they were just about to leave when they heard an angry snort coming from the sky.

"My little white!!"

Chen Li looked up and saw a girl in a green dress standing on a giant eagle with wings spread nearly five meters wide, falling with the giant eagle.

Both her and the giant eagle exuded very obvious magic fluctuations.

Upon noticing this fluctuation, the four people from the nearby village suddenly stiffened.

So strong!

However, for Chen Li, this fluctuation was so weak that it could be ignored.

He noticed the man's words.

noob?

Hearing this, Daphne seemed to notice something.

The girl flew down and immediately came to the fire as soon as she landed. Looking at the finely gnawed bones beside the fire, she wanted to cry without tears.
