Chapter 993 A Cook
She felt that Lin Feng was kind and modest, so it was easy for him to get along with her, and there was less sense of boundaries between them.
"Is this your kitchen knife?"
Yan Xiaoding turned his head and saw a sheathed knife next to Lin Feng, so he picked it up casually.
Lin Feng did not stop her and let her take the broken sword.
"Wow, what a heavy kitchen knife."
Yan Xiaoding pulled out the broken sword with force and observed it in the light of the fire.
Lin Feng frowned and thought. From their words just now, he learned that Emperor Zhao Zheng of Taisho seemed to be making some moves.
It seems that after hearing that he was going to be killed, he could no longer hold back and started to attack the eight prefectures in Zhenxi.
Lin Feng thought for a while and felt that with Wang Qian in charge of the Shanglin Mansion, plus generals such as Li Donglai and Zhang Changyou, the Zhenxi Army should have no major problems.
Bai Jing was in charge of logistics, and Hu Jincai and Pei Qiyin were also in charge in the south.
Lin Feng couldn't figure out where the loophole was.
Without me in charge, the attack might be slightly less powerful, but the defense should not be afraid of the Taisho Imperial Army.
While he was thinking about it, Yan Xiaoding held up the broken sword and presented it to Lin Feng.
"What are you? Why do you look like a broken piece of iron?"
Lin Feng smiled: "You have good taste. This is meteorite iron from outer space, a top-grade material for forging divine weapons."
Yan Xiaoding took a few more glances at the broken sword, then put it back into the scabbard and threw it to Lin Feng's side.
"Stop trying to fool me. This meteorite? It's more like scrap metal."
Yan Xiaobing originally wanted to take it and take a look, but after hearing her say that, he gave up the idea of taking a look and concentrated on dealing with the barbecue on the fire.
Yan Xiaoding didn't want to give up on Lin Feng. Seeing that the dried meat he casually roasted over the fire was so delicious, he continued to persuade him.
"Hey, Master Shu, following us, the Seven Heroes of the Yan Clan, you can fully display your culinary skills. It's also safer than following the pirates. They treat our clan members like no one else. They might kill you with a single blow if they get upset."
Lin Feng looked at the beautiful face in the night.
"In the southern part of the Dazong territory, were you forced to hide here and there by pirates, with almost nowhere to stay?"
When Yan Xiaobing heard this, his eyes widened immediately.
"Who said that? When the pirates saw us, the Seven Heroes of the Yan Clan, they immediately tucked their tails between their legs and fled, running faster than rabbits."
Lin Feng nodded and said, "Yes, so, you seven heroes of the Yan clan like the environment in the wilderness and don't like the hustle and bustle of the city."
Yan Xiaoding clapped his hands: "Yes, we like to be free, to be open and boundless, to run like the wind."
"Sleeping in the open air, having no fixed place to live..."
Lin Feng continued what she said.
"Hey, you're a cook, but you've actually been educated. That's not easy."
"I'm ashamed to say that I attended a private school for a few years when I was young."
The other two men in black spoke very little and just ate and drank.
"If you follow us, the Seven Heroes of the Yan Clan, we can safely send you to settle in the Eight Prefectures of Zhenxi."
Yan Xiaoding still doesn't give up.
"You just said that the eight prefectures in Zhenxi are not safe either."
"There's no problem for now. After all, the Zhenxi Army's combat power is there, and the Taisho Imperial Army won't be able to do anything to them for a while."
Yan Xiaobing took a sip of wine, exhaled, and spoke in a rough voice.
"Maybe one day, Lin Feng will return. Humph, Taisho Imperial Army? Pirates?"
After two questions, he shook his head and shut up.
Yan Xiaoding frowned: "I guess Lin Feng won't be able to come back."
"Nonsense! How could such a hero just disappear like that? Someone must have spread rumors."
Yan Xiaoding sneered: "I know he's your idol, but don't you think about it? He's a high-ranking figure from a hidden sect, like a land immortal. How can he talk nonsense?"
Yan Xiaobing squinted his eyes and looked at Yan Xiaoding.
"My idol? Don't tell me who was the one who hid in the house and cried after hearing the news of Lin Feng's murder."
"No, I didn't. I was just thinking about my mom."
When Lin Feng heard them talking like this, he was secretly happy. He thought he had met his biggest fan.
"Okay, let's not talk about each other. It is said that Lin Feng left from near Funing Prefecture, and seemed to have gone along a tributary of the Jinjiang River to the estuary of Ganqing Prefecture."
Yan Xiaoding waved his hand: "Stop talking about it. We've discussed this countless times. It's useless except for annoying people."
Yan Xiaobing shut up, and the five of them were silent, with only the occasional crackling sound of the burning wood.
After a long time, Lin Feng added a few branches to the fire to make the flames higher.
"The Seven Heroes of the Yan Clan are heroes from the southern territories of the clan, and Lin Feng is a general from the eight prefectures in the west. I wonder how they came to be together?"
Yan Xiaobing looked dazed and muttered to himself.
"Lin Feng, whether marching, fighting, or fighting alone, is practically invincible. The Seven Heroes of the Yan Clan have been close friends for a long time."
Yan Xiaoding pouted: "His ability to govern the world is also admired by the world."
The other two men in black had been silent, but now they spoke.
"Such a hero is envied by God. How unfair!"
Originally, several people were happy, but now they all looked lonely and melancholy.
Lin Feng quickly smiled and said, "Heroes, where are you going?"
Yan Xiaobing said frankly: "We just killed some pirates and were chased here. Otherwise, you are the only one who would end up in this godforsaken place."
Lin Feng smiled bitterly: "Since we are wandering, how can we choose the place?"
Yan Xiaoding said unconvincedly, "If it were my way, I would have killed them all long ago. Why are they running away?"
"There are only four of us, and they are over 50. How can we fight them?"
“Although there are many of them, they are a mob.”
"Pirates, when they go crazy, they don't even care about their lives. They are very difficult to deal with. How could the Seven Heroes of the Yan Clan be as brainless as them?"
"Who are you calling brainless?"
"I'm talking about pirates."
"You're mirroring me."
"I do not have."
"You just have it."
As the two men were talking, they started arguing, and the other two men in black hurried forward to mediate.
It was learned that the Seven Heroes of the Yan Family were well-known wanderers in the southern territory of Dazong, who robbed the rich to help the poor and enforced justice.
After the pirates invaded and witnessed their brutal acts, the Seven Heroes of the Yan family decided to fight against violence and protect the people. They wandered around towns and villages, insisting on staying on the front line against the pirates.
This time, they attacked a small pirate grain transport team outside Quzhou Prefecture, were chased by a large force, and fled here.
The four of them were only one of the seven heroes of the Yan family. The other teams split up and escaped separately.
Because this place is very remote and the saline-alkali land is just ahead, there is nothing here and usually no one comes here.
This dilapidated village is already at the edge of human activities.
It is also the edge of Quzhou Prefecture.
That night, Lin Feng also cooked porridge for the four of them, fulfilling his responsibilities as a cook.
Yan Xiaoding decided to take in the cook as a logistics staff for the Seven Heroes of the Yan Family and cook for them.
Therefore, Lin Feng got a new set of clothes, a short jacket with a slanted collar and a coarse cloth undershirt, plus a pair of cloth shoes.
Although Yan Xiaobing is older than Yan Xiaoding, Yan Xiaoding is the only female among the seven heroes of the Yan family and is cared for by a group of strong men.
