[Through] Delicious Journey

Chapter 1 The Story Begins

blue sky?

Baiyun?

Ying Cui opened her eyes, looking at the blue sky in front of her in astonishment, occasionally seeing a few white-winged birds circling past.

This is where?

He sat up, and the sounds of wind, sea tide, and the calls of sand gulls he felt all around suddenly came to his ears.

The sea breeze brushed his cheeks with a little warmth.

For a while, it was even more confusing.

Ying Cui rubbed her forehead, twisted her neck and looked around.

The flat and endless sandy yellow beach has no end in sight along the wave line. Less than ten meters behind you, the lush green jungle is tall and dense, with all kinds of strange-shaped crops and fruits growing, and the roar of wild beasts can be faintly heard from inside.

"Why does it look familiar?" Ying Cui stared at a two-meter-high stone on the beach for a long time, then turned her gaze back to the forest behind her.

There are green trees and red fruits, and the nearby wheat ear crops hang down with fruity flesh, and the smell of baked wheat is wafting. Behind it, even the shrub-like plants are as tall as a human being, not to mention the scattered giant trees behind it.

It's like going to the primeval jungle, the kingdom of giants.

Ying Cui got up, patted the sand on her body, and looked around, with some doubts and expectations.

He almost trotted to the front of the ear of wheat.

The plant's fruit is wrapped in yellowing leaves that hang just high enough to reach on tiptoe.

Ying Cui pulled a fruit hard, hugged it in her arms, and stepped back.

"Boom." Unable to bear the forceful tugging, the pulp finally separated from the plant and was picked off.

Due to inertia, Ying Cui rolled along the sand twice, her hair and clothes were covered with sand.

But he couldn't control it anymore, and impatiently tore off the leaves of the fruit in his arms, wanting to confirm his conjecture.

When the yellowed leaves are peeled off, the aroma of wheat comes out without any barrier, and the bright yellow fruit inside is also exposed.

Ying Cui stretched out her hand and broke off a corner, took out the soft bread core and stuffed it into her mouth, she was stunned for a moment, and pinched her own face in disbelief.

"Well, it hurts."

Ying Cui bared her teeth, turned her gaze back to the fruit in her hand in shock, and said vaguely, "Haimai bread? Fuck, did it really make me cross?"

It seems that he just casually said something in the final clearance wish of the game "Tasty Journey", if only I could wear it in the game.

After all, as a chef and a foodie, all kinds of natural delicacies unheard of in "Tasty Journey" are shown in the exquisite graphics of the game, just looking at it makes people salivate.

But he just said it in other words, it was just a joke, who would have thought...

Ying Cui carefully recalled the scene at that time.

After collecting all five fantasy dishes, return to Keli Island and hand it over to the ultimate NPC Shenlong. A wishing dialog pops up on the screen.

Well, in fact, Ying Cui has been complaining about this dragon setting when she first played this game. Given that there are Dragon Balls in front, this main line setting is really a bit of a bad taste.

and then?

Then what happened?

"Ah!" Ying Cui slapped her forehead, suddenly remembering that it was thunderstorm and she had teased with Big Fatty on the phone about why there was a lightning rod installed on the roof.

"Could it be that I was struck by lightning?" Recalling that after I made that inexplicable wish, I heard a thunderbolt, and then my eyes darkened. It's not a bad spirit, tomorrow is the award ceremony of the Golden Spoon Awards, and you made such an oolong for me."

The Golden Spoon Award, the highest award for a chef, the glory he gained from honing his culinary skills for ten years, was given OVER by a joke.

"Eh, forget it." Reluctantly getting up, Ying Cui walked along the coastline.

If it comes, it will be safe, no matter how you say it, it is your own wish no matter what.

Although it was just a whim, it happened to be heard by God.

Oops.

The sky, the earth, and the sea are all in one color, and there is no one on the beach, and the surrounding area is a bit bleak.

Ying Cui stuffed Haimai bread into her mouth as she walked, thinking about the current situation.

If this is "Delicious Journey" right, according to the progress of the game, he will encounter the dragon guarding this Keli Island when he wakes up the next day.

After helping Shenlong barbecue for ten days, you can complete the novice task before you can leave the island.

It is worth mentioning that, as the birthplace of newcomers, Keli Island is also the place where the ultimate five-course fantasy cuisine is located. Except for this beach and a small area around it, all the monsters lurking above level 70 (full level 80), With Ying Cui's current ability, going out is the end of being killed in seconds.

"Let's put it this way." Ying Cui sorted out all his thoughts and murmured, "Collect five dreamy dishes, so I can go back?"

……

The material composition of the world of "Delicious Journey" is food, which is why Ying Cui came up with the idea of ​​traveling to the game.

However, even if there are delicious food everywhere, with Ying Cui's current combat power, there are only three kinds of crops that he can recognize and pick off smoothly along the way.

When it was dark, Ying Cui went back to the boulder where she woke up, and counted the harvest of the day.

Needless to say, sea wheat bread, the baguette has a slightly hard shell and a soft, cotton-like interior, chewing with a refreshing salty taste of sea salt, satisfying hunger and easy to carry.

Sea pepper powder, shaped like a lantern, is red in color. There is a small opening at the bottom that can release powder. When picking it, you should pinch the stem five centimeters below it in advance to prevent it from spraying powder due to external stimuli and reduce the difficulty of picking.

The last one is also the one that Ying Cui is most satisfied with.

About 500 meters away from the boulder, most of the plants buried in the ground - sweet water squash.

To survive on the island, besides food, drinking water is the most important thing. If Ying Cui hadn’t remembered some guiding missions when she played the game and found a strange-looking sweet water pumpkin, she would have died of thirst here within three days.

At that time, he finally had a chance to experience all kinds of wonderful delicacies, and he would cry to someone.

Sweet water pumpkin, as the name suggests, is in the shape of a pumpkin, but its outer skin is not as golden as a real pumpkin, its shape is round, its texture is not deep, and it is extremely hard, milky white, and it can make a crisp sound when knocked.

Ying Cui dug up two and brought them over, one was ripe, the juice was sweeter, for daily drinking, the other was still green in color, so it was naturally unripe, the juice was low in sweetness, it could be used for washing.

Since each water pumpkin is the size of a truck tire, it took Ying Cui a lot of time just to dig them out and transport them to the bottom of the boulder.

And this world is not a real game after all, there is no so-called refresh, so that the "commitment" left two huge holes that have not been filled.

Putting all the harvest under the boulder, Ying Cui walked around and picked up some dry branches.

Keli Island is dry all year round, and the weather will be abnormal only during the return season of pterosaurs every year. The next 10 days will be sunny without exception, and he does not need to find a new place to live, and directly camps under the boulder.

Arranging the branches to form a hillock, Ying Cui found two black flints from the loose stone pile under the boulder.

Making a fire is also one of the necessary guiding skills for Shenlong barbecue. There is no tutorial for beginners right now, so I can only slowly recall and fumble.

"Teng".

Not long after, a cluster of open flames clustered on the beach, swaying in the vast night, like a solitary boat sailing on the sea.

"call."

Feeling the heat from the flames, Ying Cui leaned against the huge boulder, closed her eyes and felt sleepy, thinking in a daze.

I don't know if I wake up tomorrow and see the big fat or the dragon?

night, quiet.

The tide rushed up with surging waves, and receded quickly, and the white waves appeared one after another, as if celebrating this extraordinary beginning.

……

"Ah oh... ah..."

The seagull flapped its wings, and the long cry accompanied by the rising and falling of the sea tide became the alarm bell to wake people up in the morning.

Ying Cui curled up and lay on the beach, stretching naturally.

Then, as if realizing something, the half-stretched body froze.

Quickly opened his eyes and sat up.

The sun was unexpectedly fierce and glaring, a little unaccustomed, Ying Cui squinted her eyes belatedly.

"drink!"

As soon as his vision became clear, he was taken aback, and his whole body trembled.

What stood before him was a huge dragon head.

Nose, tentacles, wide-eyed eyes, breath from the mouth and under the nose, all show that in front of him is a real, living dragon.

Ying Cui swallowed her saliva, and carefully moved to the side.

Unexpectedly, a giant wild boar and a short knife appeared next to Shenlong's coiled body.

No one spoke first, one person and one dragon, and the atmosphere fell into a strange silence.

"This is a game, this is a game, it's just a game..." Ying Cui repeated in his heart several times before reducing the visual impact of this huge creature, and boldly looked at the mythical dragon. .

A typical oriental dragon has a long and strong body, and its skin is densely covered with a thick layer of scales, the color is golden yellow, and the edges of the scales are extremely sharp.

When its head is lifted up, you can see a piece of soft meat connected to the abdomen under the jaw, it is slightly white, and the dragon's beard hangs down. It moves automatically without wind, and looks majestic.

"Susu."

Seeing people waking up, Shenlong tilted his head and stared at Ying Cui, and stared at him for a long time with green eyes without pupils, then glanced over, circled and flew away.

The dragon soared into the sky, drawing a beautiful golden curve in the sky.

On the edge of the beach.

Watching the big man fly away, Ying Cui wiped the cold sweat off her head, let out a breath, and raised the corners of her mouth stiffly, "Shenlong puts a little more pressure on people."

After all, it is no longer a game with a screen separated by a layer. When a real giant dragon is in front of you, with a body as tall as a two-story building, the shock is quite large.

After being stunned for a while, Ying Cui finally came back to her senses, got up and walked in front of the wild boar.

Picking up the dagger, looking at the four adult-sized beasts, he took a deep breath and sighed with a slightly complicated expression, "The plot has begun."
