After entering the tent, Lin Feng reached into a hidden compartment and took out a small, exquisite jade box.
Intricate floral patterns covered its surface, while a faint aura lingered around it, revealing that it was no ordinary object.
The next moment, dazzling green light burst from the jade box and swept across the table.
When the light faded, the previously empty table was covered with plates of steaming dishes, their rich fragrance quickly filling the tent.
Candied yams, candied peaches, braised pork hock, roast suckling pig, steamed petals, braised bear paw, sweet and sour carp…
Seeing one fragrant dish after another appear on the table, the girl covered her mouth in surprise.
Then she lowered her gaze to the lotus root and pork rib soup she had brought.
Compared to the feast before her, the soup she had carefully prepared suddenly seemed almost embarrassing to offer.
She had never imagined that in a caravan where life was precarious and attacks from wild beasts could happen at any time, someone could still live so comfortably and store away so many delicious dishes.
“Vice Leader, was that Fragrance Storage Food Gu you used just now?” The girl was clearly quite knowledgeable, recognizing the Gu immediately.
Lin Feng was slightly surprised.
Fragrance Storage Food Gu was not particularly common, yet she knew its name despite her young age.
It seemed this girl had quite a background.
After all, Fragrance Storage Food Gu was a storage Gu specially designed to preserve food.
It could maintain freshness and greatly slow down spoilage, allowing food to be stored for long periods without losing its taste or quality.
This Gu belonged to an entire series ranging from Rank 1 to Rank 5, beginning with the Rank 1 Food Storage Gu, followed by the Rank 2 Fragrance Food Gu, and eventually reaching the Rank 5 Gourmet food Gu.
Gourmet Food Box Gu was a unique Rank 5 Gu possessed by Shang Yan Fei, the Shang clan leader.
It possessed an enormous storage space, and any delicacy placed inside would remain fresh for a hundred years without spoiling.
Whenever Shang Yan Fei used the Gourmet Food Box Gu, colorful clouds and mist would fill the sky while dazzling light illuminating the sky, creating an extraordinarily magnificent sight.
With a single wave of his sleeve, countless delicacies would appear, enough to feed tens of thousands of people.
Over the years, countless people had benefited from this Gu, making its reputation widely known throughout the Southern Border.
Although Gourmet Food Box Gu was a Food Path Gu worm, Lin Feng suspected that its ability might also involve the profundities of Time Path.
Perhaps it could freeze the time of anything stored inside, preventing even the slightest change from taking place.
However, its ability to restore food that had already lost its freshness was even more difficult to explain.
It was almost as if the Gu could reverse the state of the food and return it to an earlier point in time.
The Food Box Gu in Lin Feng’s possession was naturally far inferior. This story is hosted at g.com.
It could preserve food for at most three years, and during the final six months, anything stored inside would gradually begin to spoil.
Seeing the girl still staring curiously at the Food Box Gu, Lin Feng smiled.
“You’re quite knowledgeable for your age.
Even an uncommon Gu like Fragrance Food Box Gu caught your attention.” His smile turned teasing.
“Don’t tell me you’re some pampered young lady from a powerful clan who secretly ran away from home?
If so, I’d better send you back before your family comes looking for trouble.”
A trace of embarrassment flashed across the girl’s face, and she hurriedly changed the subject.
“Wow, Voice leader, you’ve secretly hidden away so much delicious food!
Hehe, I’m going to report you!”
Lin Feng pulled out a chair for her and prepared another set of tableware.
Playing along, he put on a pleading expression.
“Hey, keep it down.
This is our little secret.
I’m treating you to a meal today, so you can’t betray me afterward.”
At first, Lin Feng had only planned to build a closer relationship with the girl so that he could later use her to refine one of the Blood Path Gu recorded in the Blood Sea True Inheritance.
However, after talking with her and realizing how knowledgeable she was, Lin Feng began to reconsider.
The girl clearly had an unusual background, and perhaps keeping her alive and maintaining a good relationship with her would prove more useful in the future.
“Hehe?
Don’t think one meal is enough to buy my silence.
I’ll have to taste these dishes first and see whether they’re worth keeping your secret.”
The girl winked playfully.
After exchanging only a few words with Lin Feng, she had already become much more relaxed around him.
The restraint she had shown when they first met had completely disappeared.
These dishes all came from Baixianglou in Jiaji Village.
It’s said that they’re prepared using several special Gu worms, so the taste is naturally exceptional.” Lin Feng spoke with obvious pride.”Don’t be shy.
It’s my treat today, so eat as much as you want.”
The girl’s mouth watered as she looked at the table full of delicious food.
Although she was still a little shy, she could not resist Lin Feng’s hospitality and finally stopped being polite.
Before long, the table that had been filled with delicious dishes was covered with nothing but empty plates.
Lin Feng stared at the scene before him, dumbfounded.
Goodness, is this girl a glutton?
How can she eat so much?
And with that figure of hers, where did all the food even go?
Could she really be one of those legendary people who can eat whatever they want without ever gaining weight?
Noticing Lin Feng staring at her with a bewildered expression, the girl blushed slightly.
She finally stopped eating and muttered in a barely audible voice, “Actually, my appetite is only a little bigger than other people’s.
Really, just a little…It’s clearly your fault for serving such small portions!”
“Yes, that’s right.
That must be it.
That’s definitely the reason!”
Seeing her desperately trying to convince herself, Lin Feng decided not to point it out.
In any case, his Fragrance Food Box Gu could store plenty of food, so he had no reason to care how much she ate.
Lin Feng waved his hand again, and another flash of jade light swept across the table.
In the blink of an eye, the empty plates disappeared, replaced by another table full of fragrant dishes.
Dongpo pork knuckle, three-delicacy shark fin soup, steamed lamb, roast duck, steamed eight-treasure pork, glutinous rice stuffed duck, squirrel-shaped mandarin fish and many more.
