Forced to become a delicate companion of a paranoid lord
Chapter 17 Obtaining the rare ingredient Pink Scale Fish
Xie Wei thought he had concealed it well, but Sal did not leave after Xie Wei closed his eyes. He sat on the chair beside the bed.
The person with closed eyes had unsteady breathing, and the corners of his mouth occasionally rose slightly, which showed that he was not really asleep. Sal didn't know what Xie Wei thought of to make him happy, he only knew that he liked such a little rose.
The carriage was very warm and the bedding was so soft and comfortable. After Xie Wei finished studying the system functions, he really fell asleep after a while. When he woke up, Sal was not in the carriage. He got out of bed, put on a thick coat, and then walked barefoot on the carpet.
Looking at the boots standing next to him and then at his bare feet, Xie Wei thought that he would have to find time to make a pair of indoor slippers later.
The Empire did have indoor shoes, but there were none in the luggage prepared for him. His suitcases were filled with flashy things, so the pajamas, underwear, thick clothes, cloak, snow boots, etc. he was wearing were all prepared by Thrall.
The people of Paraso do not have the habit of wearing slippers indoors, so Sal did not think of this. When he was at the post station before, Xie Wei found a pair of shallow-mouthed shoes in his luggage and made do with them.
But no one knows where Sal put those shoes now.
Walking to the window on the short-pile carpet, Xie Wei reached out to open the curtains a little, and then looked out of the car through the window.
The carriage stopped now, and everyone gathered around a fire behind a huge rock in the leeward direction. Something was cooking on the fire, and there were branches with pieces of meat on them next to the fire.
Xie Wei was observing quietly. He thought he was very secretive, but when he opened the curtains, he was discovered by the sharp-eyed Paraso warriors.
But no one dared to look towards the carriage, and they just talked in a low voice with their companions.
By the fire, Toyne asked Buck beside him.
"When will the lord come back? Do you think the prince is hungry? He has been looking at us."
"I don't know, but the lord won't let his partner go hungry." Buck turned his barbecue and continued, "Before, when we took turns guarding His Highness Shiyavi at the inn, we smelled a particularly tempting aroma of food outside the door. It was said that it was a delicacy cooked by His Highness himself."
"Hey! Really? How could the prince of the empire do such a thing!" Toin thought that this Rose of the Empire had been held in the palm of their lord's hand all the way, and he was a little bit unconvinced.
"There are only the lord and His Highness Shiavi in the room. Do you think our lord can make food with an enticing aroma?" Buck did not explain much. How could they not know what the food made by the lord tastes like?
Their lords don't even need to cook the food to enjoy it!
Toin probably thought of his lord's suspected loss of taste buds, and he remained silent for a while.
When Buck and Toyne had finished their barbecue and hot soup, they saw the lord coming back with two pink and white fish.
The two fish were about half the length of an adult male's arm. They were pink and white in color, but their heads and tails were dark red.
"Buck, I seem to be dazzled. I saw the lord caught two pink-scaled fish."
Toin couldn't understand how the lord caught and gutted the two fish that were only found in the Purification Pond of the Goddess Temple.
"You're not seeing things, that's a pink-scaled fish." Buck took a quick look and then looked away. He thought that if the high priest knew that the lord had caught the fish from the Goddess Temple and ate them, he might go to the old lord and cry again.
After all, there were less than a hundred pink-scaled fish in the Goddess Temple's purification pond. They only ate two in one meal and they were quickly eaten up.
That's a pink-scaled fish that contains many kinds of magical elements and can replenish energy!
In the carriage, Xie Wei had already lowered the curtains and sat on the sofa before Sal appeared. It was at this time that he discovered that two portable pots had been placed in the corner of the carriage without him knowing when. There was also a cabinet with the tools and seasonings he used for cooking at the inn, and there were some fruits and vegetables and ingredients in the basket next to the cabinet.
He looked at the clock and it was around one o'clock in the afternoon, which was past lunchtime. Xie Wei didn't feel hungry before, but now he felt hungry when he saw these tools and ingredients. So he quickly recalled the dishes he had cooked in the past, thinking about what he could make with the ingredients in front of him.
When Sal came in carrying the fish, Xie Wei was just about to cut the cleaned leafy vegetables. Hearing the sound of the door opening and closing, he turned around and saw the fish in Sal's hand. His eyes lit up and he asked Sal in a gentle voice.
"Can you eat spicy food?"
Xie Wei wanted to make boiled fish. He liked spicy food in his previous life, but he had never eaten spicy food here.
"It's edible." Sal certainly noticed Shevi's reaction when he saw the fish, and was very happy to see that he liked it.
It can make Little Rose happy. No matter how spicy it is, Little Rose will eat it even if she asks him to swallow it with the skin and bones.
Sal put the fish in a ceramic bowl beside him. He had cleaned it when he came back. Seeing Xie Wei holding a knife in his hand, he carefully took the knife, stood beside the table, and asked Xie Wei.
"How to cut it?"
"Just cut it into pieces, about this length." Xie Wei measured the length with his hand, and then went to cook the two fish.
Walking to the pottery basin, Xie Weigang put his hand on the basin when a prompt sound rang in his ears.
"Obtained rare ingredient Pink Scale Fish x2, points +1"
"What's wrong?" Even while cutting vegetables, Sal kept an eye on Xie Wei. Seeing him standing beside the ceramic basin without moving, he put down the knife and went over to take a look.
"It's okay, it's just... it's the first time I've seen such a beautiful fish." Looking at the points that had arrived on the page, Xie Wei suppressed his excitement. He then looked at the gutted fish in the basin, which looked so beautiful no matter how he looked at it.
This is a point he got for free.
"You like it?" Sal asked.
He did not doubt what Xie Wei said. After all, the pink-scaled fish was indeed very beautiful, especially its tail that looked like a skirt.
"I like it." Xie Wei nodded. These are points. He likes it so much!
"I'll catch one for you next time." Sal said in a flat tone, as if what he caught was just an ordinary edible fish.
"Okay." Xie Wei cooked the fish with a smile on his face. He didn't know yet that he would suffer in the future because of the special properties of the pink-scaled fish.
When the aroma of boiled fish began to waft from the carriage, the Paraso warriors outside the carriage, who had just had a full meal, touched their stomachs at the same time.
They had just finished eating the barbecue and broth, but the smell made them feel like they could eat more! What on earth was this cooking? Why was it so fragrant? They had never smelled such a mouth-watering food before!
Is it a delicacy that is unique to the palace? After all, they have never seen such delicious food in the hotels in the imperial towns.
Near a fire in the corner of the rock, Jerry, who was responsible for preparing meals for His Highness Shiavi along with several slaves bought from the empire, was in tears. Neither he nor the few slaves who knew how to cook could prepare such tempting delicacies.
No wonder His Royal Highness the Prince always eats very little. How could he get used to the food they cook if he has been eating such delicious food all the time?
But no matter what people outside the car think, it has no effect on the people inside the car at all.
Xie Wei picked up a piece of boiled fish fillet, which tasted spicy and tender. His appetite, which had always been poor, was completely opened by this pot of boiled fish.
The two of them ate quietly. In the end, Xie Wei finished half a bowl of rice and a bowl of boiled fish fillets, and most of the remaining rice, boiled fish fillets and two side dishes were eaten by Sal.
After the meal, Sal sent the dishes out for washing. Xie Wei slowly turned around in the carriage to digest the food. He felt a little uncomfortable because he had eaten too much.
As he was spinning, Xie Wei felt something was wrong. Why did he suddenly feel like he had endless energy all over his body?
Since he came into this world, his body has never been weak. He would feel tired after walking a dozen steps, so he had to lie down and rest most of the time. But now his physical condition is so good that he even wants to go outside and run a few laps.
