The scene of the harvest festival can be said to be very lively.
Although rumors about potatoes have spread a lot in the past, making many people very taboo about this kind of food, for farmers who have few entertainment activities, a festival is still very attractive. Most people think that the worst possible thing to do is just not touch the food at the festival.
Of course, when it comes to the harvest festival, it is not up to them to decide whether to touch the food on it.
Yin Lian's dishes are full of tricks, such as potato shreds, potato slices, baked potatoes and other dishes. You can tell the clues from the appearance, so naturally they can be avoided easily.
But some are not easy to avoid.
Fruit vermicelli and potato vermicelli are put together. Most people will not be able to tell the difference between the two without trying them. In fact, even if they actually eat them, most people still can't tell the difference between them.
Yin Lian specially made it in the form of spicy hotpot, with a little minced meat, some wild vegetables, bamboo shoots, mushrooms, etc., plus coarsely brewed vinegar and pepper plants that are similar to peppers but much less spicy. The taste is extremely rich. , and delicious, it is basically impossible to tell what the vermicelli inside is made of.
Potato steamed buns and rice noodle steamed cakes taste quite different, but for the villagers from the sage capital, it is not possible to tell which one is made of what materials based on the appearance alone.
…
The people who manage the stall are all Yin Lian, so Yin Lian lets them cook and eat by themselves when there are no customers. If someone asks about the ingredients of the food, don't hide it, just tell them directly.
During the Harvest Festival, Yin Lian walked around with the little priest and the mage around him. Then when he met an acquaintance, he introduced Dale and the mage disguised as Mansha to them.
A farmer came to the square with his children and soon smelled various fragrances. The children clamored to eat various foods made from potatoes, but the farmers naturally refused to let them, so the children made a fuss.
This made many people regret why they came to participate in this festival.
But the festival itself is still fun.
Yin Lian prepared various small stalls at the festival, and many people had a great time. Compared to the coyness of the farmers, the mages are much more generous. They have their own methods to confirm whether a food is toxic, and they are not so afraid of poisonous medicinal plants.
There is a team of mages here who are having a great time.
The half-grown boy held a rice cake in his hand, and also held a paper package of potato buns. The young mage next to him was asking for hot vermicelli noodles from a stall. There were no foldable tables and chairs prepared, mainly because Yin Lian thought it was too troublesome and too lazy, so many people simply stood with soup bowls or sat around the flower bed eating vermicelli.
"Hiss... so hot! So spicy!" After the young mage handed one of the bowls of vermicelli to the boy next to him, he couldn't wait to roll a few vermicelli on his fork and stuff it into his mouth, and then he was burned.
The boy raised his head, looked at his teacher with shining eyes, and asked, "Isn't it delicious?"
As a result, his teacher just kept eating himself.
In fact, although the hot vermicelli noodles prepared by Yin Lian also had a bit of spiciness, it was really just a little bit and not very spicy at all. But for people who rarely try this taste, it is exciting enough.
Too much spiciness makes it difficult to bear.
Although Yin Lian didn't feel anything when eating it.
When the boy saw his teacher's appearance, he couldn't help but take a taste of the soup. He reacted exactly like the teacher - after making a hissing sound, he began to eat hard.
When a child saw this scene, he couldn't help but grabbed his father's hand again, and begged to have a taste: "...you see, the Master has eaten it! That one must be non-poisonous, Dad, please! Please!”
The farmer was also a little hesitant, but still held his suspicion and hesitated.
Later, he was really troubled by his son and had no choice but to go forward and ask for a bowl. However, he tasted it cautiously, then made a hiss and almost threw the wooden bowl on the ground.
...What a strange smell! ?
The child was still pulling on his clothes and trying to get closer to the bowl: "Give it to me! Dad, give me a bite! I want to take a bite!"
The farmer said: "This food is not delicious, it tastes too strange."
But the little boy insisted on trying it no matter what. The farmer had no other choice, so he picked up the bowl again, rolled up the vermicelli and some wild vegetables with a fork, and tried a few bites of them.
After eating it like this, the taste gradually comes out.
He felt that this food didn't seem so unpalatable.
Then the farmer waited for a long time, wanting to see if the thing was poisonous and whether it would cause an attack. He was ready to run to the temple or alchemy shop at any time, but in the end he didn't feel anything.
It seems really not poisonous?
During the time when he was testing the poison, the little boy was so anxious that he almost cried when he saw his father eating alone and ignoring him. The farmer quickly bent down to comfort the child and fed him a forkful of food.
The taste of the vermicelli was a bit spicy. The farmer originally thought that the child would not be used to it, but he didn't expect that the child chewed it and ate it. Finally, he happily took a sip of the soup and smashed it in his mouth. He turned out to be a born spicy food lover. .
Looking around, there are similar scenes nearby. Everyone is eating hard, occasionally playing games at the game stall for a while, and then involuntarily indulges in it.
Yin Lian set up various games in the festival, but they have all been modified to a certain extent to make them conform to the style of the Life Cult. For example, in the ring tossing game with prizes, Yin Lian hit bouquets of colorful wildflowers with bamboo sticks at the stall, and then asked people to toss them. If they hit the toss, they could take away the bouquets inside. A small piece of paper is tied to the bottom of the bouquet, with Lady Fertility's blessing written on it, which is equivalent to a signature.
This activity is quite popular with everyone, not only the farmers, but also the mages who enjoy it quite a bit. Although they are not believers of Lady Fertility, they are keen on collecting signatures, and even do not hesitate to cast some small spells to cheat.
These actions are naturally reprehensible, and if caught, all prizes will be confiscated immediately. The stall owners arranged by Yin Lian were not vegetarians, so one by one they were caught accidentally, but there were still people who came forward to fight.
When Yin Lian led people to the temporary shed near the bonfire, the Black Sage was already sitting there.
Because this place was prepared for the Black Sage and the people in the temple, it still needed decent tables and chairs. The Black Sage pretended to be reserved and elegantly ate the snacks, but the pile of plates and bowls next to him completely betrayed him.
Yin Lian narrowed her eyes and asked, "How much did you eat!?"
There was a hint of questioning in his tone.
The Black Sage put on airs and snorted.
Yin Lian came to his senses immediately, then adjusted his expression, softened his tone, and asked, "Teacher, how much have you eaten? Don't make your stomach bloated."
Although his tone was much softer, his sharp eyes still contained strong accusations and warnings. The Black Sage suddenly felt a little bad and said, "I came here after taking medicine."
Yin Lian: "...what medicine?"
"...Hercules potion."
"..."
What kind of magic potion is Lux Potion? It can consume a lot of physical energy in an instant, making people extremely powerful. But at the same time, the user also needs to replenish a large amount of food in a short period of time to replenish the physical energy consumed previously.
Yin Lian was almost speechless. The Black Sage worked really hard to eat more. He was using the potion as a digestive tablet.
Then the Black Sage also discovered the man standing behind Yin Lian during the conversation. He carefully observed the face that looked vaguely like Mansha's, and then smiled thoughtfully.
As the owner of the City of Sages, he certainly knew that the man in front of him could not be Mansha - that man was still in the dungeon.
The mage in front of me didn't act realistically, but it was enough to deceive the travelers. Because it was a festival that day, the entire area where the square was located was full of people, including many businessmen from all over the mainland.
And if you're lucky, more than three, four or five of them may have seen and known Mansha.
At the same time, with the Black Sage's intelligence, he had already guessed what Yin Lian wanted to do, why and how he did it.
He asked Yin Lian to sit down with her entourage, and then have something to eat - if the news that the knights of the Holy City and the Black Sage sat at the same table for dinner spread back to the Holy City, I think many people's reactions would be very interesting. .
At this time, the campfire frame was still being set up. Yin Lian thought about it, sat down without refusing, and then ordered food for everyone around him. At the same time, there was also a very special food, which was French fries.
This thing consumes too much fuel, so Yin Lian didn't set up any stalls, but he could give it to his people to try.
The Black Sage had never seen this thing before, so he immediately narrowed his eyes and said, "This... I don't think I've seen them do it before?"
He condemned Yin Lian for hiding his secrets with his eyes.
Yin Lian was so shameless that she didn't care about his insignificant gaze. Instead, she took the fries and divided them into two portions. One portion was sprinkled with fine salt, and the other was dipped in sugar, and began to invite everyone to try it.
The Black Sage immediately stopped condemning her and reached out to pick up a French fries and took a bite.
He seems to like to eat everything, and there is nothing he doesn't like or doesn't like. Yin Lian couldn't help but think, what a nice teacher to take care of.
Is it probably because of the Lux potion that I didn't become fat?
The festival was a great success in the end, and many people at the bonfire night came out and danced. The Black Sage didn't end up - he ate for a whole day without stopping. Finally, all the strength potions were used up, and he finally ate to his fullest, holding his belly and shrinking aside, refusing to move.
Yin Lian deliberately provoked him, stretched out her hand and said, "Teacher, come and dance."
The Black Sage gave her a claw on the spot.
Then spring passed and summer came, and everyone still remembered this harvest festival. Some people have even begun to look forward to the autumn festival after the harvest.
But at this time, Mansha
