In a cave in the human world, a starfish and a sponge lie side by side on the bed.
A smell of meat came from outside the cave, making the two of them shrug their noses...
"It smells so good...Hey, I'm not dead yet?"
"Xing, wake up quickly."
The Uchiha star was injured more seriously than a sponge, and his face had lost its pink color.
Sponge struggled out of the cave, and not far away was a huge fire pit.
On the fire pit, three whole cows were treated cleanly, with the heads, internal organs, hides and other parts removed. Zhang Wei casually sprinkled salt and pepper, crushed peanuts, and bright red sauce on them over and over again.
Zhang Wei took a deep breath: "Perfect!"
"Sure enough, ice yak meat is suitable for barbecue. In order to resist the cold, the fat content is very high!"
“Coupled with the ingredients I prepared, it’s a perfect match!”
"Hey, you're awake."
Zhang Wei put down the seasoning box in his hand, tore off a large piece of beef and threaded it on the bamboo skewer he had just made.
"Eat quickly, I think you need this."
Sponge swallowed.
After hesitating for a moment, he took the roast beef and turned around to walk into the cave.
"Hey, grilling a patient is not a good idea."
"Look into the pit."
Sponge turned around and saw that in the center of the fire pit was a stone pot with soup boiling inside.
Add the dripping fat from the barbecue, the spilled seasonings, and some vegetables that can replenish blood and energy, and a bowl of authentic butter vegetable soup is complete.
For weak people, soup is better for absorption.
"That...thank you!"
"It's better to feed the starfish soup first, I'm afraid he won't be able to hold on."
…………
That night.
Zhang Wei, Haixing, and Sponge Shan sat around the campfire, eating beef and drinking soju. The three of them had a rare leisure time.
There are countless icefield yaks collected by Zhang Wei, and their quality is so high that it would never be seen in nature. Their weight has also increased from an ordinary 3-4 tons to 11 tons, and they can produce at least 3,000 kilograms of good meat.
The starfish and sponge are still a little weak, but they don't affect the eating speed at all, and they can tear off plate-sized pieces of meat in one bite.
"This beef tastes so good!"
"What kind of variety is it? It was hunted around here. I have never eaten it!"
"The frost is even, fat but not greasy, and the meat is firm but not old... With this kind of taste, the capture level must be at least level 15, right?"
Zhang Wei responded casually: "The one caught nearby seems to be an ice field yak."
Sponge looked incredulous and questioned: "Iceland yak? They often appear in the Kingdom of Clouds, but they taste very ordinary. I will never use them to make burgers."
This is of course not an ordinary ice yak, but a collection of countless yaks in the Zhang Wei Collection Hall!
However, Zhang Wei didn't want to explain that much and explained casually.
Sponge asked firmly: "I have also studied the meat of the ice yak, and it definitely does not taste like this."
"Probably, where there is water and soil, one cow can be raised."
The nutritional content of 3,000 kilograms of barbecue is not low. The sponge and starfish were seriously injured and require a lot of nutrition to recover.
But even so, it can only eat about 1,000 kilograms, which is already the limit.
Zhang Wei's energy was also exhausted, but the beef was only enough for 20% of the food.
Overall, Zhang Wei's total energy is about 35 times that of sponges and starfish.
Zhang Wei flipped through it, and more ingredients appeared out of thin air.
Haixing's eyes flashed and he whispered: "The space equipment...is pretty good."
The Swirl Sponge didn't think so much, and said very enthusiastically: "No wonder you are so strong, you have such a big appetite! Why can't you be full with so much food?"
"Xing and I are also good at cooking, so let us help you cook, which can be regarded as repaying you for the gift of food."
The great gourmet era attaches great importance to food. If you share food once, you become a friend.
Besides, these 3,000 kilograms of good meat are at least as expensive as grade 10-15 ingredients. When converted into money, it costs 600,000 beli. Coupled with Zhang Wei's craftsmanship, the value of the ingredients can be doubled.
The ingredients alone for a meal cost 600,000 beli.
Although the nutrition is enough to sustain consumption for half a month, you can also imagine how difficult it is to feed a person with a high level of awakening.
"Okay, let's get together and learn from each other."
Zhang Wei readily agreed.
Star Uchiha snorted: "Boring."
With a swish sound, it turned into an afterimage and disappeared in place.
Sponge scratched his head and said with a silly smile: "Don't mind, that's just what Xing is, but in fact, he is a very, very good person!"
"I believe it."
…
Zhang Wei is very proficient in barbecue skills and has no intention of hiding anything. He cooks food in front of the two of them openly.
Sponge is not stingy either, and he also showed off a few unique skills on the spot.
"In the early years, I, Xing, and Octopus embarked on the journey of becoming chefs together. The three of us loved to delve into it, and over time we developed some plausible and funny dishes."
"Later, we participated in the Queen's Burger Competition together... Unfortunately, the only one who stepped onto the podium was the octopus."
Sponge told a very unpleasant experience, which was probably a plot to betray and steal the results. In the end, Octopus became famous, and Sponge and Star became fugitives who took the blame. This is a cliché story.
There are many short stories that follow, until the two of them have improved their cooking skills to a very high level, and plan to come back to talk to Octopus about old times.
Unfortunately, just a few days later, the octopus mysteriously disappeared.
Zhang Wei coughed awkwardly: "Then where do you plan to go next?"
"The human world is far more extensive than the Kingdom of Clouds, and not all places exclude aliens. I plan to continue to travel, study, and practice in the human world."
"Do you have a goal now?"
Sponge God said mysteriously: "Have you ever heard of the Hungry Road?"
"Hungry road...nothing at all."
Although Zhang Wei loves reading, there are countless strange and wonderful things in the human world, and many side stories are not included in the book.
Even if there is, the description is very vague.
"It's really a magical place, and it's also very dangerous. The creatures there will be deprived of calories by the rocky veins, just like... starving to death."
Stealing calories?
In the original manga, there was a Taotie Immortal who was later killed instantly by Setsuno.
His skill is to use talismans to transfer calories, and he can rob millions of calories in a few seconds.
"It's somewhat similar..."
Zhang Wei asked: "What is the principle? What attracts you?"
"principle?"
The Vortex Sponge giggled and said: "How could I know that kind of thing! But I heard that at the end of the Hungry Road, there is a paradise."
"I think there must be a taste that I haven't tasted before!"
At this moment, the Uchiha star who had just left appeared again.
