Chapter 28 - Cooking Techniques (1/2)
After spending nearly three hours stuffing his face with food in the restaurant, Yuan was finally satisfied with his stomach, which was fully bloated at this moment, making him appear fatter than normal.
”Unbelievable… Brother Yuan's stomach is a true mystery. Not only can you consume monster cores and feel perfectly fine, but you can also eat enough food to feed ten whole families…” Xiao Hua stared at him with wide eyes.
”Hahaha… I don't usually eat so much, but for some season, when I swallow the food, it feels as though the food disappears before it even reaches my stomach.” Yuan said. ”And my Qi has increased significantly, too.”
After consuming so much food, his Qi Experience has increased by 1 million, comparable to the Jade Frog's monster core.
”That's because of the food Brother Yuan ate. It's not ordinary food, but spiritual food, which is cooked from monsters and contains spiritual energy.”
”Is that why it also tasted so good? Man, I should eat more of these so-called spiritual foods.” Yuan said as he rubbed his stomach.
However, when the bill appeared sometime later, Yuan immediately regretted eating so much.
”500 gold coins?! That's nearly everything I have! Why the hell is it this expensive?! Did they miscalculate the bill?” Yuan exclaimed with a terrified expression.
”Brother Yuan… did you order the food without looking at the prices? Spiritual food is considered luxury food… of course it would be expensive… and you ate so much of it…” Xiao Hua said to him.
Yuan sighed and spoke, ”If it's like this, I'd rather hunt and cook my own food.”
”That's an option, too.” Xiao Hua nodded. ”After all, it's just cooked monster meat.”
”Then it's decided! In order to save money, I shall learn how to cook spiritual food!”
And he continued, ”By the way, are there any techniques that teach you how to cook?”
Xiao Hua nodded and said, ”It'll cost you a few gold coins, but you can find these kinds of techniques in any Cultivator market.”
”Great. Then let's go shopping again after this.”
