hunt and eat

"I just beg her not to put weird contraptions on it."

Lilian and Nia looked at each other, not knowing whether to comfort him or not.

After all, according to Weiwei's personality, this kind of thing... can basically be regarded as a high probability event.

……

Walking through Blacksmith Street all the way, Guta and Nia came to Weiwei Blacksmith Shop on the uphill.

It seems that it was not called this name before, but since Wei Wei's father Hawke passed away, she changed the blacksmith shop to this name.

Maybe it's to prove myself.

But unfortunately, as of now, not to mention revitalizing the blacksmith shop, even life seems to be a problem.

This isn't going downhill anymore, it's a jumping machine.

"You guys are here." From a distance, Weiwei, who was lying on the recliner at the door, saw Guta and Nia coming up from the slope.

Wearing a straw hat, she lazily raised her hand and shook it, then yawned.

It's like a big lazy cat doing nothing.

"Are you so idle already?" Guta complained.

"I can't help it, there is no business, and there is no food at home. I tried to eat soil, but it doesn't seem to suit my taste..." Weiwei calmly said something that seemed very scary, "I'm trying to imitate the plant's Photosynthesis, if it works..."

"Be sober~" Guta shook Weiwei's shoulder vigorously.

"Weiwei, we harvested another batch of ingredients yesterday, let's eat together tonight," Nia said.

Upon hearing this, Weiwei immediately stood up and walked vigorously to the blacksmith shop.

"Hurry up, hurry up, let's eat after seeing the newly made armor, I haven't eaten for two days!"

Shaking his head helplessly, the two quickly followed.

The blacksmith shop was still as crowded as ever, with piles of iron ingots and forging equipment everywhere.

In the place full of clothes that looked like it used to be a counter, Guta also saw the small silver-gray hammer.

Legendary forging hammer, you just put it there so casually?

What a big heart!

Leaving it alone, Guta lowered his body and walked through the porch to the forging room.

On the wooden shelf in the corner, there is a gray-white armor.

"Dangdangdang, this is my newly completed work~"

As soon as forging was mentioned, Weiwei's interest suddenly came back.

"You didn't put anything on it, did you?"

Just looking at the appearance, it seems that it is indeed a normal armor.

The surface of the armor is gray-white rock-like material, and a large piece of smooth, mirror-like composite steel is inlaid near the chest, and some unknown metal surrounds the knees.

Overall, it looks really good.

"Um... that depends on how you look at it," Weiwei said hesitatingly.

"So there are extra things installed, right?" Guta frowned and poked at the armor, looking back at the forging ghost with a vigilant expression, "It won't explode suddenly, will it?"

"No, no, my design is conservative this time," Weiwei explained vigorously.

Although she was cautious and skeptical about her so-called "conservative", Guta listened patiently.

"At the shoulders and knees of the armor, I have designed a second layer of protection on the inner layer. The material is the Hustling Star Stone that I specially purchased from a merchant on a long journey. It has a good absorption effect on explosions and impacts." Wei Wei seriously He explained the details of the armor design carefully.

It sounds like you really care about it...

Guta felt that he was too empirical, this time Weiwei seemed unexpectedly reliable.

He really thought so, until he saw a familiar black in the gap of the armor.

Cold sweat trickled down his neck for a while.

"Wait a minute..." He grabbed Wei Wei, who was about to continue talking, and asked blankly, "I seem to see burning coals in the gaps in the armor?"

"It's burning coal crystallization~" Weiwei waved her hand indifferently, correcting Guta's mistake.

"Wouldn't this shit still explode!" Guta held Weiwei's neckline with both hands and shook it vigorously.

"Hey, listen to my explanation..." Weiwei struggled and said with a blushing face, "This is a special mechanism I designed for this set of armor. Once the armor's vital parts are attacked beyond the limit of its endurance, it will activate emergency mechanism."

"The preset charcoal-burning crystals will instantly explode in a directional manner, pushing you away from the opponent's attack. Of course, the impact on the internal organs of the body cannot be completely eliminated at present, but with the protection of the armored dragon scale armor and the star stone, it has already It can't do you any harm."

Guta couldn't help being taken aback by Weiwei's statement.

Then fell into deep thinking.

It seems that this mechanism can indeed come in handy, but since the designer is Weiwei...

Better to be cautious.

Thinking of this, he casually took the armor off the shelf, and put it directly on the outside of his Snow Lion King suit.

"For safety's sake, let's experiment first."

……

Chapter 67 Explosive Armor and Braised Bear Paw in Sauce

Guta was not particularly satisfied with the results of the experiment, but it was within the acceptable range.

Sure enough, even though Weiwei is reliable, he still belongs to the unreliable category.

By stimulating the emergency protection of the armored dragon armor, Guta experienced a trapeze.

The impact of this explosion was too great.So much so that he almost flew upside down and fell more than ten meters away.

In addition, the short-distance explosion caused his internal organs to be injured to a certain extent. Although his current physique did not have much impact, ordinary people would have to break their ribs if they were hit like this.

However, in terms of safety and stability, this mechanism is still in line with Guta's expectations.

Ordinary slashing and knocking failed to trigger this switch. Only moves similar to the [Blade Rotation] used by Guta have the slightest possibility of triggering the emergency device.

Overall, it's pretty usable.

Guta accepted this set of armor with some hesitation, and glanced at Weiwei, who was already eager to try and started to yell.

"That's fine, I just bought a pair of bear paws from two green bear beasts, so I'll treat you as a reward."

It is rare that Guta is willing to take the initiative to share food with others.

This was almost impossible before.

In a sense, this can be regarded as Guta's recognition of Weiwei.

Although this sentence will never come out of his mouth in this life.

……

hotel kitchen

"Aunt Jasmine, it's really embarrassing to keep borrowing your kitchen."

Nia apologized and bowed to the middle-aged woman beside her.

The proprietress of the inn smiled casually, and wiped the desk with the scarf in front of her casually, "It just so happens that there are no guests at this point, I have the right to take a rest, Xiao Nia, you can just use it as you like."

After finishing speaking, she opened the curtain of the kitchen and went out to greet the guests who were going to stay.

Beside Nia, Weiwei, who was wearing a white chef's hat, stood upright with a serious face and made a salute gesture.

"Chef, what are we cooking today?"

She said so, but her eyeballs kept dishonestly looking at the two huge bear paws at the corner of the desk.

The bear's paws of the Grizzly Beast are already the top ingredients, how delicious the bear's paws of the two Grizzly Beasts would be!

Thinking of this, Weiwei's face was full of fascination, and her saliva couldn't stop flowing from the corner of her mouth.

"Go back to your senses~" Nia smiled and shook Weiwei beside her, and casually took a meat cleaver from the knife holder beside her.

The bear paws are scalded in boiling water in advance, and the outer fur is removed.

It is worth mentioning that, according to the popular practice in the original world of the ancient pagoda, before making bear paw dishes, it is necessary to boil the broth stewed with chicken and duck in advance as an auxiliary material.

It's just that it takes too much effort to do so.

Picking up the bear paws that were still hot, Nia danced the blade in her hand, and the bear paws were deboned and sliced ​​one by one, and soon a whole large plate was filled.

This is just the size of a bear's paw!

There is no way, compared to the bear paws of the earth, the bear paws of the green bear beast are undoubtedly bigger and thicker, let alone the second monster of the red pocket green bear beast.

"Chef, the ingredients are ready~" Weiwei handed a plate of crookedly chopped green onion, ginger and garlic to Nia.

There is still a smug expression on his face that asks for praise but I just don't say it.

Smiling awkwardly, Nia said, "Thank you, Master Weiwei."

If the onion, ginger and garlic are not chopped properly, it will not affect the taste of the bear's paw later, but it will definitely be relatively poor in appearance.

Neither Guta nor Nia are picky people, and they don't pay much attention to appearance, so they just make do with it.

"Nia, the gravy here is almost done."

On the other side, Guta looked at the rich sauce that was constantly bubbling in the long tube, and shouted loudly.

This is the gravy cooked with tender meat from the chest part of the Red Pocket Grizzly Beast. It is simply added with some sauce and aromatherapy, and it already exudes a strong sauce aroma at this moment.

For a while, it even overshadowed the limelight of the bear's paw.

"Hey, this is too delicious~" Weiwei kept swallowing her saliva, salivating at the bear meat sauce guarded by the ancient tower.

"Be more patient. It will be truly delicious when the sauce is sprinkled on the bear's paw." Nia softly comforted Weiwei, who was a little restless, and then wrapped a large root of shallot in a circle and placed it in a serving bowl. Plate of bear paw meat.

Place the dish in the steamer, simmer it on the fire, and the stove will start to thump.

"Speaking of which, I've always been very curious, Weiwei..." Sitting on two small benches looking at the fire, Nia looked at Weiwei curiously, "You know so much about forging, why don't you know how to do it?" The craftsmanship of Taidao?"

This question has actually been hidden in Nia's heart for a long time, and today she finally found a chance to express it.

After hesitating for a moment, Weiwei scratched her head and said slowly: "I don't know very well, but this is the only request my father has for me... He is willing to teach me anything, except Taidao, every time I mention it He doesn’t talk about this, and after a long time, I will lose my thoughts on this aspect.”

"Does your father have a bad impression of Taidao?" Niya glanced at Guta's gluttonous Taidao in the corner of the kitchen, "Obviously the family heirloom is the Taidao?"

"I guess it's because of my mother..." Weiwei said uncertainly.

"She abandoned me and my dad many years ago, and she went somewhere alone. I heard that she is a hunter who is very good at using a sword."

Weiwei's words made Nia lower her face a little.

Her experience is so similar to Weiwei's.

"If you have a chance in the future, you can find it yourself. As long as you can become famous in the mainland, whether it's your parents, Nia, or your irresponsible mother, Weiwei, it's not a problem."

Guta's voice suddenly sounded, interrupting the thoughts of the two girls.

He fiddled with the charcoal with a fire stick, and said without looking back: "As long as people are still alive, there will be a day when we meet."

His words made Nia and Weiwei a little stunned.

After a long time, Weiwei murmured

"It's not that easy..."

But in the end, the mood of the two of them finally felt a little better.

Smacking his lips, Guta, who noticed the improvement in the expressions of the girls, looked away tiredly.

Really, it's almost time to eat, let's do this...

He didn't want to eat in that atmosphere.

The meal will become unpalatable!

……

Finally, the steaming bear paws are freshly baked.

Scoop up a spoonful of rich sauce and slowly pour it on the thoroughly cooked bear paws, the sound of sizzling and restlessness can be heard one after another, just like the gradually rising rich aroma.
