Chapter 859: Gluttonous Feast
"Huh? Do you know each other? Ji Ran looked at the dwarf and asked.
"Your question before, now there is an answer, it is he who asked me to save you." Walker, a dwarf, explained to Ji Ran.
"Huh? Did he let you save us? Ji Ran looked at Modrek and then at the dwarf Walker.
"It's not you, it's you, he just said let me save you, it's you who have to bring these oil bottles, otherwise, we would have come back here a long time ago." Walker the dwarf said, glancing at Mori Wind, Miria and Rocky.
Hearing the words of the dwarf Walker, the faces of the three of them were not very good-looking, and it was a bit too much to be used as an oil bottle.
"What are you talking about?" Mordrake frowned slightly, looked at Ji Ran and Walker and asked, he couldn't understand Elven language, although he really wanted to learn from Walker, but, as a bounty hunter, Walker had no intention of teaching others Elven language, and the reason why he mastered Elven language was completely out of professional instinct.
As a qualified bounty hunter, carrying out assassination missions, rescuing hostages, and stealth detection intelligence are all required, and in order to expand the scope of your activities and obtain information more efficiently, it is necessary to master the language of other races.
Therefore, Walker taught himself Elvish, fortunately his pronunciation is passable, although it is not standard, especially the tongue curl is too heavy, but fortunately, Ji Ran can barely understand it.
"Tell him." Ji Ran shrugged his shoulders and said to the dwarf Walker.
"He's asking me, what do you eat at night? Is there a roast leg of lamb? Preferably the whole one. Walker the dwarf turned around and said to Mordrac.
When Mordrak heard this, he seemed to be a little unconvinced, and glanced at Ji Ran suspiciously, but Rocky, who was standing behind Ji Ran, almost couldn't help laughing.
"That's what she really said?" Mordrake asked suspiciously.
"Well, yes, this pretty elf lady said, can you hurry up, you're starving." Walker the dwarf added.
Modrek looked at Ji Ran, and Ji Ran smiled politely and expressed his gratitude, in fact, he was grateful for saving his life.
However, Mordrake completely misunderstood, and thought that she really wanted food, but this reason was also reasonable, after all, they really didn't eat any delicious food during the past few days of fleeing.
"Okay, then I'll call someone to prepare it right away." Modrek immediately agreed, and in order to prepare this sumptuous meal, he deliberately used his own private kitchen.
You must know that marching and fighting is not a team, it is impossible to taste delicious food leisurely as in weekdays, most soldiers when fighting, the first thing that comes to mind is how to fill their stomachs, if they can eat a mouthful of hot food, drink a mouthful of hot soup, it is all thankful.
Only a small number of high-ranking officers were allowed to improve their food, and the so-called improved food was nothing more than more meat and vegetables and some hot meals.
And in the entire legion, only the commander can bring private chefs, private chefs are their own exclusive cooks, these cooks are often famous culinary masters, proficient in various cuisines, they live in the noble mansion on weekdays, responsible for cooking food for the nobles, and when the war is needed, they will follow the master and go out together.
They don't have to go into battle, they just need to take care of the commander's diet in the rear.
Of course, the dishes cooked by these chefs are not ordinary dishes, they are all high-quality ingredients, and there is also a special logistics team to ensure the supply, despite the relatively high cost, but in order to ensure the health of the commander's diet, all this is still necessary.
You must know that a delicious meal may help the commander recover his strength better, and a delicious meal may dispel the commander's worries, and under the amplification of the butterfly effect, this effect may greatly exceed people's imagination.
Modric instructed his private chef to prepare a sumptuous feast according to the request of the dwarf Walker.
Three lambs were slaughtered alone, as well as a two-month-old golden roast suckling pig, lobster, and abalone and sea cucumber, which were naturally very well prepared.
After preparing the feast, Mordrake warmly invited Ji Ran and his party to join the banquet.
In order to take care of the tastes of Mori Kaze and Miria, fruit salad and vegetable salad are also carefully prepared at the banquet, and various flavors are available.
Since he hadn't enjoyed a gluttonous meal for many days, Ji Ran naturally feasted unceremoniously when he saw so much deliciousness.
Mori Feng and Miria also fully enjoyed the taste of the food, although the food made by humans has a slightly heavier taste, especially the sugar, which is too sweet, far exceeding the sweetness of the fruit itself, but after eating, it is an endless aftertaste, these delicacies are indeed much better than the dew and berries in the forest.
After eating and drinking, Ji Ran and Miria were arranged to rest in a beautiful tent, and Sen Feng, Rocky, and the dwarf Walker blamed them and arranged them in the tent next to them.
Modrek drank a lot of alcohol and rested in the tent.
In the evening, Ji Ran finally woke up, she stretched lazily, maybe the bed was too comfortable, so she felt that she hadn't slept enough, and she wanted to sleep again.
However, there was a bustling sound outside the tent, like the noise of the market during the festival.
Ji Ran got up curiously and walked out of the tent, but saw that many soldiers were actually starting to move, it turned out that they were going to march, so all the wooden fences and towers outside the barracks had to be removed, and then loaded into cars and marched together.
At this time, Mordrake had already followed the troops in front of him, and he wanted to call Ji Ran with him, but seeing that Ji Ran was still asleep, he couldn't bear to wake her up.
Mordrake left his most elite escort team to protect Ji Ran, telling them that when Ji Ran woke up, they would make sure that Ji Ran was unharmed and kept up with the team, and their accusation was to protect Ji Ran.
After understanding the situation, Ji Ran was so moved, it was the first time he met someone who was so good to him, as a commander, he actually left his most elite escort team to himself.
"Aiyi, this human noble prince, is really good to you, and even left the most elite guards to you." Milia said with great envy.
"Alright, let's go, keep up with the big army." Ji Ran smiled and pinched Miria's little face, then simply cleaned up, got into the carriage, and under the protection of the royal guards of Lacasia, they headed towards the east together.
In the middle of the night, the convoy slowly stopped, and they were stationed on a high hill.
And in the manor below the hill, a raging fire was ignited.
Ji Ran stood on the hill, looking at the mountain villa that was burned by the flames, and recognized it at a glance, it was Hardeman's farm, where he had been imprisoned.
