When Gordon heard the term "cheese fondue", what came to mind was a large iron pot filled with stewed ingredients, and then covered with a thick layer of cheese on top.
However, the reality was completely different from what he imagined.
Instead of going to the restaurant, Yuna and the others took Gordon to a small food stall beside the village road.
Of course Gordon doesn't mind eating at roadside stalls. Based on his experience in traveling around the world, these kind of roadside stalls brought by locals are often the most delicious.
The owner of the food stall is a female Ellu, who has dazzling golden curly hair.
Pork Chop told Gordon with great confidence that the thing was fake and he put it on...
"Meow~"
Ellu, who has golden hair, speaks with a thick twang. I don't know if it's a deliberate behavior like the wig, or some special oral habit.
"Lady Boss, we are here with our guests!" Yuna greeted the Cat Chef lively.
"Little Yuna meow!"
Ai Lu's boss lady is very enthusiastic. Judging from the title, this Ai Lu boss lady may be the kind of elder who has watched Yuna grow up. "It's been a long time, meow~, what do you want to eat today?"
Yuna subconsciously looked at Gordon, who smiled and said to the proprietress Ai Lu: "Just order what they usually like most. The ingredients are as good as possible. I'm the one who invited them today."
"What a heroic guest, Miao'er! I understand, Miao'er!" Ai Lu's wife bowed and then started to work.
Yin Liade and the others seemed a little embarrassed. Gordon waved his hands to tell them not to worry, and at the same time observed the cooking process of the proprietress Ellu with great interest.
There is a large stone pot in the center of the stall. The hot stone pot is filled with sticky and fragrant liquid cheese. Perhaps considering that there are four hunters and two Ellu among the diners, especially the huge Gordon, the appetite is probably astonishing.
It struggled to lift a cylindrical cheese block the size of a coffee table from under the stall, cut it into a big piece, chopped it into pieces, and threw it into the stone pot.
The stone pot was suddenly so full that it almost overflowed.
"It tastes so good, meow!" Pork Chop twitched his little nose, "It doesn't feel like ordinary cheese, meow, goat's milk cheese? It doesn't seem to be the same either, meow?"
The fork rubbing its little paws expectantly explained at the side: "It's cheese made from the milk of Yun Sheep Deer. This is a specialty of our Bernard Village! It's something you can't eat anywhere else!"
"Yun Sheep Deer?" This was the first time Gordon had heard of this animal.
"It's Meow!" Chazi looked around and pointed to a lawn not far away.
On the green lawn, there were several furry animals grazing. They looked more or less like sheep, but they had no relationship with deer.
At most, a neck as long as a deer?
It might as well be called a long-necked cloud sheep, Gordon thought in his mind.
"In Bernard Village, almost every household breeds Yun Yang Deer."
He casually hugged a young Yun Sheep Deer that was walking by the village road, and rubbed it hard before letting it go. “Goat milk is rich in nutrients, delicious, and can also be made into super delicious cheese.
Clothes made of spun hair are warm and strong. Oh, by the way, the armor I am wearing is cloth armor woven from the wool of Yun Sheep Deer. "
"Is the meat delicious, meow?" Pork Chop asked smoothly.
Under the gaze of everyone, it held its head and said, "I'm sorry, meow, I didn't say meow..."
While everyone was chatting, Ailu's wife never stopped holding her hands.
Her knife was sharp, and with a flash of the knife, all kinds of fresh meat, bacon, sausages, seafood, and vegetables were cut into fist-sized chunks, and they were matched with each other to form huge meat skewers.
"Is there any seafood on the plateau?" Gordon couldn't help but ask as he looked at the huge shrimp, which was as thick as an adult's forearm.
"It's from the mountain lake." Lan said with a smile: "The taste is so good that it can scare people. It's a pity that it's not convenient to transport. It's a delicacy that can only be tasted in our village of Bernard!"
The proprietress Ai Lu put the huge meat skewers on the charcoal stove and kept turning them over. The huge meat pieces licked by the flames made a mouth-watering "sizzling" sound.
"I almost forgot, Miaoer, what flavor do you want for your sauce, Miaoer?"
"What flavor does Senior Gordon like?" Yuna looked at Gordon.
"What flavors are there?"
"Hmm, so many, sweet, rich, rich, fragrant, spicy, refreshing..."
While Boss Ailu continued to flip the meat skewers, she looked at the cheese-filled stone pot, "This is the taste of the cheese sauce, meow!"
Gordon scratched his chin. He didn't like sweet food very much, but he liked spicy food. However, he thought of spicy cheese, so it was better to be safe.
"Just a rich flavor, right?"
"Guests really know how to choose Meow!" Ai Lu, the proprietress, began to sprinkle various spices into the cheese stone pot.
Excited by the spices, a strange aroma with a strong milky aroma wafts out.
"It smells so good. You made the right choice when you came here." Gordon took a deep breath and said with a smile.
“The rich flavor is the boss lady’s signature!”
"Yes, yes!"
Yuna and Lan stared at the cheese fondue and drooled, looking dissatisfied, which made Yin Liade want to cover his face.
"It's done Meow!"
Ai Lu, the proprietress, held up the huge skewers that were grilled until they were golden brown and the heat was just right. She then put these huge skewers, which were almost half a person tall, into the big cheese pot and stirred them twice.
】
The shredded thick cheese immediately completely covers the skewers. In this way, the appearance may be a bit inconspicuous, but the taste is definitely not bad.
The hunters and Ellu took the skewers, sat around the stall, and ate happily.
"You'll be burned to death, meow!"
The pork chop jumped up immediately, and the others also looked like they were "sizzling, sizzling, sizzling".
"Although the blue is very hot, haha!" Lan Han said unclearly: "But, wow, it is the most delicious when eaten like this!"
Yin Liade, who spoke very little, nodded and said, "The cheese won't taste good if it's cold."
Gordon took a big bite of a large piece of shrimp wrapped in thick cheese. Under the fragrant, soft and slightly chewy cheese, the shrimp was charred on the outside and tender on the inside. The taste was rich in layers. Although the seasoning was not exquisite and complex, it was The deliciousness of the ingredients itself is brought out to the extreme.
"His ha, Gu Chi——."
Gordon let out a breath of hot air, chewed twice and then swallowed the big mouthful of hot shrimp meat.
He often eats cheese, but elsewhere cheese is just a garnish, condiment, or sauce.
Here, cheese is the absolute protagonist. The meat, shrimp, and fish dishes wrapped in thick cheese become side dishes that enrich the texture and taste of cheese.
"call--!"
One skewer can last an average person a whole day. Gordon ate four skewers in one go. He patted his belly and said with satisfaction: "I'm full! It's delicious!"
Yuna and the others also looked satisfied with their swollen bellies.
Putting down the finger-thick finger in his hand, which was more like a skewer of steel than an iron pick, Gordon felt that his whole body was full of strength.
With ultra-high-calorie cheese and a variety of solid ingredients, it can withstand long-term consumption even if it is wearing T-Rex armor.
You can have a big meal here before heading out for hunting in the future!
Thinking of this, Gordon touched his chin again, "Well, Hayata seems to like eating cheese? You can bring her to eat next time you have a chance. That guy should also like it."
Yuna, who had sharp ears, came closer and asked curiously: "Who is Hayata? Does it sound like a girl's name? Is it a companion of Senior Gordon?"
Before Gordon could answer, the pork chop, which was licking its greasy paws, replied: "It's not just a companion, meow."
"Oh! I understand!" Yuna said with a narrow smile that said "I understand everything."
Lan took out a handkerchief and wiped his mouth while casually asking, "Senior Gordon's companion must be very strong, right?"
Pig Chop likes to answer this kind of question the most. It puts its hands on its hips and raises its chest, "Yes, meow! Hayata will be promoted to a higher position in the next two months, meow, and she has just celebrated her twentieth birthday, meow!"
The younger Yuna was okay, but she was just amazed, but Yin Liade and Lan were solidly shocked.
Gordon flicked Pork Chop's little head, preventing it from showing off Anxil Fengying's desire to brag about it.
He looked at Lan, "I've had enough to eat and drink, and I just have some free time. What's going on with the 'Mr. Bernard' you just mentioned?"
There was silence in front of the food stall.
Lan adjusted his mood and broke the silence and said: "When Mr. Bernard was alive, he was a very powerful swordsman, with a rank of seven stars, and he could be regarded as the leader of Yin Liade.
When Yin Liade was a child, he would often sneak away to watch Mr. Bernard practice his sword. "
This phrase "while alive" explains many problems.
Gordon was stunned and said softly: "I'm sorry."
"call......"
Yin Liade sighed lightly, "Let me speak for myself. As Lan said, Mr. Bernard is my leader and he is a true genius.
Not only was he proficient in the bushido style, but before the accident, he was still studying and trying to develop his own hunting style.
He called that style - the courage style. "
