In a country dominated by humans, the life of the cat charm family has never been happy and beautiful. In the eyes of humans, cat charms are always cat charms, and they are a different race from humans. Although they are also residents of the Kingdom of Kartas, there has never been less discrimination and bullying by humans against the cat charms. There are even many places where the cat charm family is regarded as a slave and bought and sold at will.

A day's labor is nothing more than a mouthful of leftovers, and the fruits of hard work are mercilessly snatched by human beings, even if you go to the street to buy things, it is a few percent more expensive. All kinds of unfriendly behaviors caused the cat charms to gradually leave the human habitat and live in uncultivated places such as valleys and deep forests.

The Cat Charm people of the Agarwal Valley migrated here about a hundred years ago and are a small group of about 100 people. There are not many adult cats in the village, and the elderly cats and underage cubs account for the majority. The rest are half-grown children like Eliza.

There are many prey in the mountains and forests, but once you step into the mountains, the hunters themselves are also prey. Hunt or be hunted, it's as simple as that, it's so cruel. The laws of nature are always cruel and bloody.

Compared to humans, cat charms are more dexterous and lighter, but they are inferior in strength and physical strength. The innate advantage makes it easier for the cat to travel through the mountains and forests, it is easier to catch those smaller prey, and it is easier to escape when it encounters danger. But once encountering those beasts that are also known for their dexterity, the lack of strength often makes the cats either die or be injured.

In the mountains and forests, there is no one who only acts as a hunter and does not do prey, and the identities of hunters and prey are often inadvertently exchanged with each other. Cat charms can be hunters countless times, but as long as they are not careful to be prey once, then they will stay in the mountains and forests forever. Almost every year in the village, adult cats die in the process of hunting, and year after year, the composition of the group becomes more old and young, and fewer adult cats.

Such an ethnic structure is undoubtedly abnormal. In the long run, the members of the cat charm clan in the Agarwal Valley will become fewer and fewer, and one day they will disappear into the long river of time.

The Grand Elder had also considered leaving the Agarwar Valley with his people and re-establishing the village in other places where food was more readily available. However, fertile land is usually already owned, and even relatively barren areas have long been assigned to themselves by the human aristocracy. Add to that the infestation of goblins and the occasional orc blocking the way, making it easier to relocate the village......

In the game, the Agarwal Valley is called the "Rabbit Valley" by players, and the living players have to fight wits and courage with rabbits all over the ground when collecting herbs. However, Fang Qiuling learned from a casual conversation with Eliza on the road that the woodland full of rabbits running around was "ownery" - a nest of griffins with two large and two small.

With the body and claws of a lion and the head and wings of an eagle, the griffin is a magical beast that can soar through the sky. They weigh heavily and are difficult to spin and circle as lightly as birds, but they can still perform quite a bit of aerial combat skills. Griffons can fly in any weather and also have an instinct to sense changes in the weather. One of the most important reasons why the griffon is difficult to tame is that it has a strong confidence in its own air and is unwilling to accept orders from its riders.

For the cats in the valley, although the griffin is not a natural predator, and it is basically safe and quiet every day, it must have encountered it and it must have been walked around. The griffons usually hunt in their own place, and that is even more difficult to go.

Griffins are willing to eat meat as long as it is meat, and they hunt quite widely. However, all griffons have a peculiar attachment to horses and an unusual preference. If a griffon could talk, ask them if they like horses, and they will undoubtedly raise all their limbs to show their please. If you ask them how much they like it, it is undoubtedly "all at once".

Without horses, rabbits and other things can be sacrificed. And it's really hungry, and the griffins are also cannibals. In the eyes of the griffin, there is no obvious difference between a small cat charm and a rabbit, just a two-legged beast. Anyway, they all grab one with one paw, and they have to eat several at a meal......

So the real Rabbit Valley in the Agarwal Valley is a forbidden land, a land reserved for griffins. If you want to mix a few rabbits to try, then you have to ask the griffon father and the griffon mother if they agree.

However, the presence of griffons also contributes to the Agarwal Valley, for example, the security is much better than in other places. There are only occasional single-digit goblins in the valley, and orcs and nothing are rarely seen. This is undoubtedly thanks to the Griffin family.

- There are griffins.

Fang Qiuling knocked his hand violently and remembered!

- Yes! That's right! On the highest cliff in the valley lived a nest of griffins.

Griffons are often seen flying over the valley. From time to time, griffins can be seen descending from the sky, swooping down to grab rabbits and then spreading their wings again.

It's just that this guy basically doesn't have any impact on the player's activities, so not many people care. Of course, it's not for nothing that people have ideas. For example, the egg-stealing thief who plans to steal a griffon's egg from a griffon's nest on a cliff; A narcissist who thinks that his character is very charismatic and can directly tame a griffin as a mount; A battle maniac who wants to show his bravery and rushes up to fight alone......

However, there are so many interesting places in Elune's world that there is no need to fight with Rabbit Valley. There are actually very few people who are used to dying all year round. And after dying a few times, he didn't get any gains, so his enthusiasm for dying will undoubtedly decline. This is basically the case with the griffons in Rabbit Valley.

Fang Qiuling touched his nose, and his eyes began to roll.

Griffins can be domesticated. While the Griffon Knight doesn't sound as sleek as the Dragon Knight, it might be a good idea to grab one first to make the transition. Anyway, you can change from a hard-working "walking knight" to a "sky knight" who pulls the wind, this can be had!

However, in order to become an empty knight, you must first tame a griffon. Griffons are far from docile, and they are one of the few magical creatures that dare to stand up to dragons. Although it is certain that you will lose in a fight with the dragons, the dragons are a veritable people of gold, and their individual combat effectiveness is extremely strong, and even young dragons can beat griffins to the point that they can't find the north. But the dragon power that can stand up to the dragon clan does not back down, and the fierceness of the griffin's temper can be imagined.

It shouldn't be difficult to tame a griffin - Fang Qiuling could only think so. Serradia, the capital of Calthus, had an army of air knights who domesticated nearly thirty griffons. How did they tame the griffins?

Fang Qiuling went through it in his mind several times. Unfortunately, no valuable information was found. However, griffons can undoubtedly be tamed, but how? Or how to catch it?

This aspect should be familiar to the druids. Druids are nature's darlings and have an innate advantage in communicating with animals. If it's them, first an animal will be appeased, and then ...... And then I don't know!

Fang Qiuling silently lamented in his heart - when the book is used, Fang hates less. There was a whole wall of books about magical creatures in the library of Weiyang Palace, and when I was studying, I only paid attention to spells, and I didn't pay attention to magical creatures or anything at all.

Now, now I have to settle down a little bit, and don't provoke the griffins. Anyway, I can go back in a few days, go back to find some information, and then ask if there are any relevant professional "animal trainers".

Oh yes! Griffins have always had a special attachment to horses. This time, a large number of horses arrived with the convoy, both pulling carts and riding. These horses must be hidden first, or it will be a big loss for the griffin to run away!

As night fell, a bonfire was lit in the open space in the middle of the village, which had been set up as a banquet hall.

The air is filled with the aroma of stewed meat and the smell of wheat on toast. The two flavors are intertwined like a gorgeous symphony. But it wasn't time to eat yet, and I could smell it but not eat it, which caused the little ones in the village to meow and salivate one by one.

- What a fragrant, so fragrant taste! I haven't smelled a meow before!

- It's meat, it's meat, it's meat!

- And this! This one! It's going to go big! It's going up again!

There is no need to guess, it must be Fang Qiuling who is not tired of eating and refining again. In his words: Have a good meal today!

The seasoning packets containing various spices are wrapped in clean linen cloth and stewed with the cleaned pheasants. Potatoes, mushrooms, unknown wild vegetables and potato-like plant tubers are added during the stew process, and a large pot of otherworldly chicken mushroom stew is complete.

Don't waste the soup and sauce in the pot after serving. Add some water, then pour in the gnocchi, jerky, wild vegetables and potatoes and continue to cook, and the resulting stew is just as delicious!

The spice seasoning package provided by Fang Qiuling is undoubtedly the best of the best. Pastor Ed took a bag and did it for identification, and just a small bag was worth more than a wagon of wheat! And such a spice bag, Fang Qiuling took out more than ten packets from the storage bag. Such an act is undoubtedly ...... Tyrants!

- You dead nobleman! It's so rich and so enjoyable!

You know, even in a country like Serradia, spices can be used directly as currency! Fang Qiuling's seasoning bag made of a mixture of spices is an absolute hard currency, and it shouldn't be a problem to buy a gold coin in one pack. After tasting a bite of chicken stewed mushrooms, Lily said directly that this dish can be served as a main dish at the kingdom's state banquet!

The potatoes are boiled soft and delicious, and when they are spooned, they are slightly filled with some soup, and they feel soft and fragrant after entering the mouth. The taste of the largemouth mushroom itself is quite delicious, and at this moment, with the strong fragrance of pheasant, it makes people linger after biting. The unknown mountain vegetables are crispy, absorbing the chicken soup and having a sweet aftertaste.

As for the most important mountain chicken, Fang Qiuling said - how can you do this! I didn't get a single one!

- Angry! Very angry!

When stewing, just smelling the smell makes the kittens meow greedily. Now that the delicious entrance is delicious, the kitten charms have no sound, and they almost bury their heads directly in the dinner plate, and they all eat them one by one. Even those half-sized cat charms who have already experienced Fang Qiuling's "food baptism" on the road are also the same.

- Hurry up and eat! After eating, go and serve a bowl!

If spice stew is to be expected, then bread baked with yeast provided by Fang Qiuling is an unexpected surprise.

Old Tom took a bite of the bread and chewed it a few times. The texture of the bread is slightly sour, but after a few chews, the sourness turns to sweetness, and after a few chews, the sweetness turns sour. The two tastes kept changing in his mouth, and he couldn't help but be a little reluctant to swallow. After savoring it, there was a faint aroma of wine in the sweet and sour, and this discovery made Old Tom want to stop, and he started to shoot the case.

"Shulik! What did you kid add to the bread! ”

"I didn't add anything, I just offered yeast."

Fang Qiuling said casually without looking back, and Sino obediently handed over the wrapping paper that had just been removed

"Oh, it's hop yeast."

Fang Qiuling was still careless after glancing at it.

"Hops yeast ......" Old Tom was silent for a moment, then broke out, "You actually make bread out of the yeast of soy sauce!" ”

"What's wrong? Isn't it tasty? ”

“…… Delicious. ”

Old Tom hides his face and retreats.

- almost forgot. This stinky boy has always been a big guy. When the meat is just cooked, the spice packet is a big handful. If he hadn't stopped it quickly, this guy could have dropped all the fragrance packets! What is yeast from hops, small scene!

"It's delicious, it's over, what else are you not satisfied with. Besides, I didn't make the bread, it was Eliza. I just provided some yeast. Oh, hop yeast. As he spoke, Fang Qiuling gave Eliza a thumbs up, "Eliza, this bread is very well done. Delicious! ”

Of course, the bread in my hand is still a little hard in terms of texture, and it does not have the soft and fluffy texture of modern bread. And there is no sprinkling of nuts on top, and there are no accessories such as cream, jam, cheese, etc., and the overall finish is very rough.

However, considering that it is in Elune, there is no large oven dedicated to toasting, and there are no various accessories, so the production is also a bit hasty. As long as it's not the kind of brown bread that can be used as a stick, then it's a success! What's more, Fang Qiuling himself did not directly participate in the baking of bread, but only pointed fingers on the side. In this case, it is not delicious, then it is too annoying.

"Thank you." Fang Qiuling's praise made Eliza blush, "It's a good ...... taught by Brother Shulick."

In addition to the main dish and main course, the drink made with red berries and melted snow water is also quite good, and the sweet taste has a rich fruity aroma. This made Fang Qiu, who was accustomed to drinking inferior fruit juices made with flavors, pigments and water, shine brightly.

Fang Qiuling doesn't like to drink very much, and has always said that wine is either bitter or sour, or has a strong pungent taste, these tastes are not a comfortable feeling. What's more, if you drink too much, you will get drunk, and when you get drunk, you will do some "stupid things" that you would never do in a normal time. Therefore, Fang Qiuling likes sweet juice, likes milk tea, and loves homemade juice drinks the most.

For this reason, Fang Qiuling was not less laughed at by Old Tom, and Lily also pursed her lips and secretly enjoyed after knowing it.
