The Low-Key Life of a Necromancer

Poking a knife into the grain bag and watching the shriveled wheat grains rolling out, the soul from the earth felt a sense of despair.

Even though Li is now schizophrenic and has formed two independent consciousnesses, in essence, they are one.

All of Li's actions, the food he eats, and the feeling of touching objects can be felt by Earth Li without any hindrance.

The dark, hard, dry bread was acceptable to eat once in a while, but facts told Li that this was everyone’s daily ration.

A sore throat and hemorrhoids, this kind of life is not what Earth Li wants.

[I wanted to keep a low profile, but now it seems I have to farm! ]

A classic cliché of time-travel novels!

Travel to another world and start your great life from farming!

Such content should be written from the beginning of the article, rather than jumping to the third volume to start farming.

[I don’t know what the author is thinking.]

"author?"

[Don’t worry about someone who often has a short circuit in his brain! ]

While Li was daydreaming, it was time for dinner.

It’s called dinner, but it’s only afternoon now. People in this world generally only eat two meals.

[Just right, I have some ideas, go to the kitchen! ]

If farming is to get going, there must be enough support from people. To gain the support of local people, Li must offer visible benefits.

Wheat and beans, only roughly processed and made into bread and stews, are foods that can make people question life.

In Earth Lee's memory, various cooking methods are preserved. Even if the raw materials are still the same, they are guaranteed to be better than dry bread and bean soup!

"I've been eating black bread and bean soup for half my life, and it's not as unpalatable as you say, is it?"

[That's because your mouth has not yet experienced the baptism of real food! Just like the baptism of believers in the church, only after eating real good food can you understand what food is. It is a feeling of being reborn! What you eat every day is at most rations! ]

Speaking of food, Li Youyi, who was born in the Foodie Empire, would like to say that the food culture of this world, in particular, is not as good as that of the previous dream world.

"By the way, I always hear you talking about the dream world. Can you tell me more about that world?"

[Are you interested? Actually, the dream world is just my name for it. In essence, that world is a hybrid that facilitates our spiritual fusion. Unfortunately, your knowledge reserve is too shallow, resulting in most of that world being my mark, and you were almost swallowed up by me.]

When it came to the matter of being swallowed, Li shuddered.

He didn't want to recall the feeling of his head exploding yesterday.

When Li arrived at the kitchen, his mother was already holding a bowl of dough, ready to throw it into the oven to bake.

Seeing this, Li quickly stopped her and snatched the ingredients from her mother's hands.

"Son, what are you doing in the kitchen? Noodles are not toys, be careful not to spill them!"

Li carefully examined the dough and found that there were many unground particles and obvious wheat husks in it.

"Mom, the other me said, let's make dinner."

"Oh~ Then I'd like to see what tricks you can come up with."

Men work and women cook, and this family structure has continued for hundreds of years.

In the wild, men can only roast wild animals and don't know how to cook complicated food. Li's offer to cook naturally attracted the attention of Li's mother.

Mother Li noticed that after taking the dough, her son's eyes changed instantly, and it seemed that his body was controlled by another soul.

This situation is actually quite dangerous. Li's mother checked the ancestral records and found no case like Li's where two spirits shared one body.

Li's mother was worried about Li's health when she saw Li's hands flying, rolling and kneading the dough.

After the dough was kneaded more evenly, Li spread out the dough and rolled it into thin slices. Then he used a kitchen knife to cut the folded dough into shreds, and the simplest knife-cut noodles were ready.

The rough flour made the noodles easy to break and become fragile. Li had no way to improve the situation in a short period of time and could only try to adjust the palatability of the noodles through taste.

[Do you have a frying pan?]

"Have!"

【What about oil, salt, sauce and vinegar? 】

"There's salt!"

Well, I couldn't ask for more, having salt available in the kitchen was already a luxury.

Li from Earth didn't know that salt was not a scarce commodity in this world. With water magic and earth magic, it was not difficult to purify clean salt.

Heat the pan, pour some fat extracted from unknown animal on it, and stir-fry the diced meat and beans together.

A smell different from the usual stewing smell instantly spread out from the kitchen. Xiaoli, who was cleaning the room, smelled the smell and went into the kitchen.

"Oh my goodness, it's really the young master who is cooking. I thought he was joking!"

When Xiaoli first heard that Li was going to cook, she was disdainful.

There are only two professional chefs in the Li family, one is Li's mother, and the substitute is Xiaoli.

It's good enough for Li, a young master who has never touched housework, not to get into trouble. It's a miracle that he can cook.

But an astonishing scene was playing out in front of Xiaoli. The young master was holding a frying pan that was only used to cook meat, and the ingredients in the pan were flying up and down in the flames!

[Wow~ I didn’t know the flame could be controlled this way, it’s much easier to use than a gas stove! ]

To speed up cooking, the two Lees each controlled one hand.

Li from Earth is responsible for flipping the wok, while Li from this world is responsible for casting fire magic.

The collision of techniques from two worlds makes this cooking a delight to the eyes.

Both Lees felt a strange pleasure in this novel experience.

Without soybean paste, Li could only make臊子 with minced meat and beans.

After the臊子 is fried, boil the water and cook the noodles. After a few minutes, the noodles are cooked.

The noodles after the water was filtered out were choppy and had a strong grainy texture, which Li was very dissatisfied with.

But Li Ma and Xiao Li's eyes were shining and they kept breathing in through their noses, as if they wanted to suck away all the fumes in the kitchen.

The warm noodles were covered with salty sauce, and two large bowls of noodles were placed in front of Li Ma and Xiao Li respectively.

Li prepared a large bowl for himself, holding the noodles in one hand and raising his fork in the other.

[Alas, it’s not right to eat noodles with a fork. 】

Li ignored the other personality's pretentiousness and stuffed a big mouthful into his mouth while the heat was still there.

The refreshing feeling, which was different from the dry bread, instantly captured Li's taste buds. At the same time, Li's ears also received the humming sounds of the other two diners.

Mother Li and Xiaoli cried while eating, they were obviously moved.

The noodles made by Li himself, full of love, brought a deep shock to these natives who had never eaten good food.

"Wow~why are you crying so hard?"

Xiaoli poked the noodles with a fork, trying to find a reason why this bowl of food made her cry.

Earth Li smiled slightly, hiding his achievements and fame.

[Because I put onions~]
