The meal was to everyone's satisfaction. Jin Dapang was indeed a big foodie, he was very particular about the way he ate. Even though Lei Xingfeng had eaten countless delicacies in his past life, he still admired Jin Dapang's cooking. This man was definitely a person who knew how to enjoy himself.
Especially Lei Xin Yao, the pitiful little fellow had always been happy as long as she was full. Suddenly eating such delicious food, she immediately stuffed herself and kept burping. Then she hugged her stomach and hummed, praising the food nonstop.
Jin Dapang's mouth was full of oil, he kept praising the delicious taste of the Big Horned Beef. Then he lamented that after eating these two Big Horned Cows, it would be hard to find such good meat again.
Wei Zheng Long brought a group of soldiers in to clean up. Jin Dapang ordered him to make a pot of ink flower tea. This ink flower tea was a local specialty, it was good for digestion, especially for digestion. It could help with digestion, it was Jin Dapang's favorite.
Lei Xingfeng tasted it. This ink flower tea was indeed very good. The taste was a bit bitter, but the aftertaste was sweet and refreshing. He specifically asked Jin Dapang for some ink flower tea. It was a type of dried black flower that was rolled into small balls. Once it was boiled, it would immediately bloom in the water. It was a very interesting drink.
Xin Yao drank a little and the bloating in her stomach quickly disappeared.
Everyone chatted for a while and bought some food from Jin Dapang. As for meat, they brought a lot from Hong Tong city, enough for the team to eat for a few months.
The place Elder Thunderstorm wanted to go wasn't the capital of Xi Rong country, but a place called Stellar Night Fortress. Stellar Night Fortress wasn't a city, but a place where practitioners gathered. It was very famous in Xi Rong country because most of the people here were practitioners. The officials of Xi Rong country never dared to go there. This place was a no-man's land.
Xi Quan specifically asked, "Jin Dapang, have you been to Stellar Night Fortress?"
Jin Dapang immediately felt relieved. He said, "Stellar Night Fortress, ah. This place is chaotic, don't go if you don't have a bit of strength. Hehe, of course, you guys can go."
Thunderstorm asked, "How far is this place from Stellar Night Fortress?"
Jin Da Pang replied, "It's not far … but it's not near either. It depends on which way you choose. If you take a shortcut, you'll arrive in seven or eight days. But, if you follow the normal route, you'll need around twenty or thirty days. But, there's a problem with taking a shortcut. You'll have to go through the barbarian's territory. This route isn't easy to traverse. Most people would choose to take the normal route.
Thunderstorm said, "Well, let's take the shortcut. Do you have a map?"
Jin Dapang hurriedly said, "Yes, yes, Zhenglong, give me the map!"
Wei Zheng Long brought a military map. It was a very detailed leather map. This map recorded the areas where the barbarian tribes gathered. They were all at the edge of the oasis and desert. They had to pass through a large desert barbarian tribe.
Lei Xingfeng also looked at it. He said, "You guys are in Mojin City to defend against this barbarian tribe, right?"
Jin Dapang smiled and said, "Yes, it's this tribe. They have at least six hundred to seven hundred barbarian warriors. In fact, the barbarians, even the children and the elderly, are very terrifying. Fortunately, Mojin City has a tacit understanding with them. If they don't attack us, we won't be able to eliminate them. Of course, if we take the initiative to step into their territory, they have the right to attack us. We won't rescue them, and we can't rescue them."
Xi Quan said, "Oh, you're not honest. You want us to weaken these barbarians."
Jin Dapang said, "I don't dare to have such thoughts. I'm just pointing out two ways to reach Stellar Night Fortress. Hehe." This was a typical overt scheme. Everything was on the table, and it was up to you to choose. If he took the shortcut, he would definitely clash with the barbarians. If he took the longer route, he wouldn't lose anything.
Old man Thunderstorm nodded and said, "This little guy is quite smart."
Jin Dapang had a simple and honest look. He stared with his pair of innocent little eyes and said, "I'm just a foodie. How can I be smart? Alas, I also hope I'm smart. Otherwise, I'll always be at a disadvantage."
Everyone couldn't help but laugh. This guy did look simple and honest, but no one believed that he was honest. This fatty's shrewdness was hidden in his fat body. If they were careless, they would be betrayed by him.
Old man Thunderstorm said, "We'll take the shortcut." He didn't care about the barbarians. If they dared to block the way, he would just kill them. It was also a good opportunity to train Lei Xingfeng's fighting skills.
Jin Dapang immediately beamed with joy. He had a clean-up mission every year. He didn't want to eliminate the barbarians, but only wanted to weaken their numbers. This time, he could be lazy and reduce the casualties of his soldiers. He wouldn't miss such a good opportunity. He smiled and said, "This road is actually very easy to walk. It's flat and comfortable. There are many ponds along the way, enough to replenish the lack of drinking water."
At this time, Jin Dapang was very enthusiastic and explained everything he knew in detail.
Qi Quan smiled and said, "Not bad. You know a lot."
Jin Dapang showed off a little. "Of course. Although I haven't been here for long, I know the situation here very well. I've explored this road three times. It can be said that … I can pass through it even with my eyes closed!"
Old man Thunderstorm said, "So it's like this …"
Jin Dapang was still puzzled. He thought to himself, "Like what?"
Old man Thunderstorm continued, "In that case, you can be our guide."
"Huh? What? "
Old man Thunderstorm said indifferently, "You can be our guide. What's so strange about that?"
Jin Dapang suddenly panicked. He said, "This, this … Old man, it's not that I don't want to, but …"
Old man Thunderstorm didn't wait for him to finish and interrupted, "It's not that you don't want to … Then you do! Fine, we'll ask you to be our guide. You, you won't refuse, right? "A powerful aura directly pressed down on Jin Dapang.
Jin Dapang was just about to explain and decline when the powerful aura pressed down on him. He couldn't speak and his whole body stiffened. Only now did he realize that Old man Thunderstorm's strength was terrifying to the extreme. When the aura suddenly disappeared, he almost fell to the ground. He said in a panic, "I, I'm willing. Of course I'm willing … Cough, cough, uh, I … I'm willing …" He almost cried.
Lei Xingfeng couldn't help but laugh. This guy looked like he was the one who harmed you and wanted to thank me. This is really bad.
Jin Dapang wanted to say that he couldn't leave the camp, but to reason with Old man Thunderstorm? His brain must be damaged. Although he was fat and tasty, he wasn't stupid at all. He knew he couldn't refuse. He smiled bitterly and said, "Old man, you're really overbearing!"
Old man Thunderstorm said, "You don't want to?"
Would Jin Dapang dare to say no? Not even if he had the guts. He said, "Of course I do!" His tone was full of resentment.
Old man Thunderstorm spread out his hands and said, "You're the one who wants to. I didn't force you. How am I overbearing?"
Jin Dapang cursed in his heart. He squeezed out a smile that was uglier than crying and said, "Yes, yes, yes. Old man is the best. You're not overbearing at all. You're kind and amiable. I did it willingly, willingly …"
Old man Thunderstorm laughed out loud.
Jin Dapang shouted, "Wei Zheng Long!"
Wei Zheng Long ran in from outside and said, "Sir, what's the matter?"
Jin Dapang said unhappily, "Follow me to Stellar Night Fortress. We'll take a shortcut."
Wei Zheng Long immediately felt dizzy. He said, "Sir, that's the territory of the barbarians. We'll be attacked if we go in!"
Jin Dapang said, "Nonsense, of course I know. We'll be the guide. As for the barbarians, there are so many experts here. It's not up to us to fight!"
Wei Zheng Long said, "But what about the barracks?"
Jin Dapang said, "I asked you to come with me. Why are you talking so much nonsense? Go prepare some food … We won't be able to find any good food on the way, so bring more. Prepare ten Sand Tuo beasts and give them to me. Remember, don't starve me on the way!"
Everyone looked at Jin Dapang in shock. Their team had more than ten people, but they only had five Sand Tuo beasts. This guy wanted ten Sand Tuo beasts, and he had a Hidden Lun space. Was he going to be the guide or to eat and play?
Jin Dapang even apologized, "I'm sorry, I can't go without food. Without food, everything is wrong. Hehe, don't worry. I promised to take everyone away, so I'll definitely leave well."
Lei Xingfeng had a strange feeling. He said, "Why do I feel like something's wrong …"
Old man Thunderstorm said, "What's wrong?"
Lei Xingfeng shook his head and said, "I can't put my finger on it, but it's definitely weird."
Wei Zheng Long walked out of the tent to organize the supplies. He heard Jin Dapang say loudly, "Bring my copper stove. Oh right, bring some charcoal too, we can barbecue meat." Saying this, he chased out of the tent.
Everyone was dumbfounded. Was this guy planning to take the entire kitchen with him?
With Jin Dapang going, the happiest person was Lei Xin Yao. She clapped and said, "Uncle Dapang is going … I have good food!" She had never eaten such delicious food before, so in her eyes, Jin Dapang was a moving treasure trove. Following him, there would definitely be good food.
Lei Xingfeng bitterly smiled and said, "Yaoyao, I'll cook good food for you next time."
Lei Xin Yao said softly, "Brother, are you stupid? If there's free food, why would you cook it yourself?"
Lei Xingfeng was speechless. This child actually had such thoughts. But soon, he became happy again. This little money grubber was indeed a little money grubber. If she could take advantage of others, she would never lose out. He said softly, "Okay, we'll eat fatty's food, hehe."
Lei Xin Yao smiled proudly.
