Gourd of Douluo

Chapter 637 Border Town

Shitou Town, a small town, is located in the western border of Xingluo Empire, with a population of about 1,000.

Although it is a town, it is located in a remote area, and no one will come here for a year or two. The mountain road is blocked by the primeval forest, where poisonous insects and beasts are entrenched, which is very dangerous.

Even though it is only a dozen miles away, the people on both sides of the nearest Yan Village will not meet once in a few months.

However, just today, a donkey cart outside Shitou Town passed through the Infinite Mountains, broke through the territories of various beasts, and arrived here safely.

The donkey cart seemed to be driven by a pair of siblings. The younger brother looked very young, wearing a straw hat, about fifteen years old, and had a handsome appearance.

The elder sister was fair-skinned and beautiful, even the most beautiful girl in the town was far inferior to her.

The two had nothing in their hands, but they were clean and tidy, and they also brought an old donkey that was panting when pulling people.

The residents of Stone Town were surprised. On weekdays, few outsiders came. Even if there were outsiders, they were mostly lost travelers or peddlers who came to sell small items.

I don’t know what these two people are doing.

The donkey cart swayed and stopped in front of the courtyard of the only tavern and hotel in the town.

The three-story wooden building was the tallest building in the town. There was a wooden sign like a beer cup hanging at the door, and the paint on it had already faded.

Nitia didn’t wait for the donkey cart to stop. She turned over and landed steadily on the ground, muttering in her mouth: "Finally, I’m here. I can’t wait to lie in the bathtub full of bubbles and enjoy a hot bath."

"I took a bath yesterday." Wang Xiaofeng complained in a low voice.

"You don’t understand. Taking a bath in the wild is completely different from taking a bath in the bathroom."

Wang Xiaofeng, who didn’t understand the difference, honestly pulled the donkey cart to the backyard and parked it, then untied the donkey and tied it to the stable, and filled the old friend’s trough with nutritious feed.

The old donkey, who had been exhausted, couldn't wait to bury his head in the trough.

"Don't worry, don't worry. No one is competing with you." Wang Xiaofeng patted it on the back gently, and the pure soul power flowed through its body, helping it relieve fatigue.

When Wang Xiaofeng entered the tavern, it was already half an hour later.

Although the tavern was open to welcome guests in the morning, there was no guest inside.

It was still difficult to see people coming to the tavern to drink early in the morning. At least it was not until near noon that the tavern would slowly become lively.

There was no sign of Nitia on the first floor. She should have opened a room and was taking a leisurely bath in the bathroom.

Wang Xiaofeng carefully looked at the interior decoration of the tavern. The only thing that was somewhat related to wine was a few bottles of unlabeled wine and a row of glasses on the shelf behind the bar.

The overall style made people feel that it was not a tavern, but more like a family restaurant.

At this moment, the door of the tavern was pushed open by someone, and a tall and fat man in a thick coat arched his buttocks and squeezed in backwards with small steps.

He was dragging a heavy fishing net in his hand, on which hung several plump and large fish.

"Sobal, Xiao Xier, where are the people? Where have they gone!" A hoarse voice echoed in the tavern.

After shouting, he found that no one came to help. He turned around and saw Wang Xiaofeng sitting at the bar next to him, looking at him, and their eyes met.

"A stranger who I haven't seen before, why are you here so early?"

"I'm the owner and chef of this pub, and everyone calls me Old Gore."

Old Gore put down the fishing net in his hand and asked enthusiastically: "It seems that you haven't had breakfast yet? Do you need me to prepare something for you?"

He pointed at the fish in the net and said, "The salmon that was just caught must be fresh enough."

Wang Xiaofeng glanced at the big fish that was still struggling in the fishing net and nodded, "We just came to town and haven't had breakfast yet. I believe your cooking skills will not disappoint us."

"Haha, I won't let you down."

Old Gore struggled to drag the fishing net. Seeing this, Wang Xiaofeng helped him and the two of them moved the fishing net to the backyard together.

Old Gore sharpened his knife and carried the biggest fish to the kitchen.

There was a creaking sound from the stairs, and a silver-haired woman came down, cursing in a harsh tone: "Damn old Gore, I can hear your hoarse voice howling from the third floor."

When she saw Wang Xiaofeng, her face was slightly relieved, "You two siblings have room 305, and there is only one key, which is with your sister."

"We are not" Wang Xiaofeng opened his mouth and was about to explain, but the woman had already walked into the kitchen to help, cursing.

Well, this is not the first time that I have been misunderstood like this.

Wang Xiaofeng rubbed his face.

With help, old Gore's speed was obviously much faster, and soon, bursts of meaty aroma came from the kitchen.

The mouth-watering aroma filled the entire restaurant.

Nitia came down with wet hair, and it was obvious that the fragrance downstairs had spread upstairs. The girl was so greedy that she didn't even take a bath.

"The dishes are here. Come and taste my cooking skills. I'm not bragging. If we only talk about cooking skills in this town, I'm second to none." Old Gore dragged the plate in his hand and placed it in front of the two.

Plain fried fish fillet, fruit pie made of unknown fruit, and a bowl of fresh fish stewed with carrots.

Nitia couldn't wait to pick up the fish fillet and take a bite.

The slightly burnt and crispy flour wrapped the smooth interior, but one bite gave you a double enjoyment.

The fish fillet is not inferior when eaten raw, but deep-frying sublimates this deliciousness. The crispiness in the mouth and the tenderness inside form a wonderful layer.

"It's delicious." Nitya raised her head and exhaled the hot breath.

"It's delicious. The fish used for today's fish steak is the most plump salmon during the migration period. You can't eat such delicious fish normally."

Nydia swallowed the food and asked: "Migration period? What is that?"

"Little girl, you don't even know the migration period. You are coming from the inland. Migration is rarely seen in the inland."

Old Gore pulled up a chair nearby and sat down, talking eloquently: "To put it simply, in early autumn every year, fish, turtles, etc. in the sea will go back to the large lakes inland to lay eggs. This process is called the migration period.”

"There is a large lake more than ten kilometers away from the town. Many fish come here to lay eggs every year. These two days are not the most fishy time. Wait for another week. At that time, just throw a net into the lake and pull it up. It weighs several thousand kilograms at least.”

"For thousands of pounds, if you dare to sail the boat into the lake, the Fish Dragon King will be the first to swallow you." The woman wiping the table with a rag couldn't help interrupting.

"Ichthyosaurus King?"

"A black fish that has become a spirit, bullies the weak, fears the strong, and is very vengeful. It is the overlord of Moyang Lake." Old Gouer shook his head and refused to say more. He had obviously suffered a lot at the hands of the Fish Dragon King.

Not long after, some guests came in one after another.

Because the two of them seemed to be a little out of place in both their dress and appearance, everyone who came in would look at them subconsciously.

Although there was no offense in the eyes, the curious glances from time to time were a bit distressing, so after eating, they went directly upstairs and returned to the room.

As soon as Wang Xiaofeng entered the door, before he had time to appreciate the furnishings of the room, Nidia threw him onto the bed.

I have been playing dnf mobile games and Mingchao these days. After experiencing it in depth, I came back to update.
