Chapter 839 The Expert’s Order

Dragin was not very interested in archery. At that moment, her focus was solely on food. “Brother Li, what’s for lunch?”

Li Nianfan smiled slightly and said, “Let’s roll some meat!”

“Roll meat?” Everyone’s eyes lit up at the thought of having some delicious meat skewers.

Nanan instantly threw ‘The Complete Collection of Archery Skills’ to a side and wiped away the drool coming out of the corner of her mouth.

They had been with Li Nianfan long enough to know what rolling meat meant. Eating meat from skewers elicited a different feel compared to eating the usual home-cooked dishes. The taste was completely different, and because they did not get to eat it often, they always looked forward to the next session.

“Come on, let’s all work together! Start the fire, set up the grill, and string the meat together with the bamboo skewer. We’ll make a feast out of it with some wine!”

They still had a stockpile of the various game meat from before. It would be a waste if they did not use them for meat skewers. It would be an unbelievably decadent feast. Any one of the meat would have fetched a sky-high price if it was sold in his previous life.

“I want to eat the black beef! I’m sure it’ll be delicious as a meat skewer!”

“That divine bird’s so pretty. Its meat must be very tender. Dibs on the drumstick!”

“I’m going to try grilling the dragon horns on that giant tiger to see what it tastes like!”

“Woof! Woof! I want to eat grilled deer’s tail!”

They rushed to the refrigerator one by one and began to choose their choice of meat from the dazzling selection, just like how Li Nianfan did in his previous life when he went to meat skewer restaurants.

They kept gulping as they struggled to choose from the options, and watching this scene being played out filled Li Nianfan with indescribable happiness and contentment.

He suddenly smiled, and said, “Let me tell you all a secret. You can also make skewers out of other ingredients like banana, sweet potatoes, eggplants, chives…just about anything! And it tastes even better than

meat.”

“Really? I’ll go harvest the Chinese cabbages, then.”

“I’m going to harvest the mushrooms.”

“I’m going to harvest the ginseng.”

“I’m going to harvest the potatoes.”

An odd expression flashed across Li Nianfan’s face. He was sure that they had mixed in something that would not work as a skewer. Wisps of smoke slowly rose from the charcoal fire, making the yard warm and lively. Everyone was enjoying their food and it felt like they were in their own bubble of happiness.

The Heavenly Palace people, who were still outside of the four-part architecture, were slowly snapping out of the trance of seeing the powerful arrow earlier. Their noses twitched at the same time and they were immediately intoxicated by the delicious aroma wafting from the yard.

“Oh my god, it smells so good! They must be pigging out on something delicious again!”

“I’ve never smelled anything more delicious in my life! A single sniff is equivalent to a day of cultivation! I love it!”

“The expert’s place remains as peaceful as ever no matter how the world outside rages on. I guess that’s to be expected when one is a bigshot like him.”

“I finally understand why the demons like to stay here on the mountain. Just by smelling the aroma of the food, listening to the music, picking up trash… All these are the kind of good fortune that countless people can’t even imagine!”

“The arrow just now must’ve landed on the unknown gray mist in the Origins Realm. Yang Jing, bring some men with you to go investigate.”

“Sniff, sniff! Why me? I want to stay here and smell the aroma of the food! Xiao Chengfeng, you go.”

“No, I want to stay here, too! This smell is so addictive! Sniff, sniff!”

Suddenly, their faces turned green at the same time. Their expressions became distorted, and they were clutching at their necks as smoke came out of every orifice. They had breathed in too hard, and mixed in with the fragrant aroma was something very stinky. The sudden extreme contrast made their stomachs churn and their faces green.

At that moment, the Elite King and Su Chen came over with the manure buckets in their hands.

“We’ve made it just in time to breathe in the delicious cooking of the expert!” said the Elite King happily.

“Yeah, it smells more fragrant than usual! They must be eating something really special in there,” said Su Chen with a nod.

Then, they plopped both the manure buckets and their butts on the ground and began to immerse themselves in the delicious aroma.

The Heavenly Palace people looked at the manure buckets, and their mouths began to twitch. ‘I get it that the two of you want to smell the aroma, too, but why bring the manure buckets with you? Not to mention, it takes a special kind of genius to enjoy the aroma under these circumstances.’

“Dammit! Are you doing this on purpose? Do you put the manure bucket on the table while you eat?” reprimanded Xiao Chengfeng, not holding back his anger.

“The fact that you’re so irritable means that you still have a long way to go in your cultivation. As long as your heart’s quiet enough, you’d automatically filter out the odor and smell the fragrance,” said the Elite King solemnly.

“Bullsh*t! It’s because you’re used to the smell that you can say that. It doesn’t have one bit to do with the level of cultivation at all!” said Xiao Chengfeng.

“Alright, you caught us red-handed. You’re right, we’re doing this on purpose!” said the Elite King. Then, both he and Su Chen burst out in gleeful laughter.

“Hahaha. Ah, I feel so much better now. How do you like the mini-experience of being a gong farmer?”

“Forgive us, everyone. Being a gong farmer can be boring sometimes, so we decided to have a little fun with you guys…”

“I hope you don’t take any offense. In fact, despite its stinkiness, it’s actually good for the body.”

“Here, you can have these manure rags so that you can get used to the smell faster. That way, you won’t be affected by the smell the next time you’re here.”

The incessant teasing came from the lips of the Elite King and Su Chen, making the hair on the Heavenly Palace people’s skin stand. Angered, they each took out their treasures.

“I wouldn’t do that if I were you. Don’t forget that I have a manure bucket filled to the brim with me,” warned the Elite King.

The Heavenly Palace people froze instantly. How would they ever make it up to the expert should anything happen to the precious contents in the manure bucket?

“You sons of b*tches,” said Cultivator Junjun, which was surprising because he never ever cussed before.

Yang Jing looked at the rag and asked, “Are those rags given by the expert as well?”

The Elite King smiled and nodded. “Yeah, how about it? Don’t ever say that I’m not good to you.”

All those rags were discarded by Li Nianfan, so the Elite King did not particularly mind using them to clean the manure buckets. The Heavenly Palace people looked at the rags, and after a while, finally accepted them. Anything from the expert was a treasure in itself, no matter how stinky it was.

“That’s the perk of staying so close to the expert. One can always come across opportunities like this…” said Xiao Chengfeng all saltily.

Suddenly, a chicken flew up the four-part architecture’s wall and clucked at them. They immediately greeted it politely, “Hello, Taoist Chicken!”

The chicken belonged to the expert, so it would not be good for them to offend it.

Cultivator Junjun suddenly thought of something and asked excitedly, “Taoist Chicken, are you here to give us the expert’s orders?”

It seemed like the chicken had replaced the use of a dove to send messages.

The chicken nodded, stretched out its neck, and said, “The gray mist is of immense use to the expert. You’re to collect more and bring it here.”
