Frontier Army Warrior

Chapter 976 The City Lord’s Cook

He wanted to see where he was right now and which route he should take to get back to Yingjian Gorge under Funing Prefecture in the southern territory of Dazong as soon as possible.

Both of them were wearing the clothes of a pirate family, with bamboo hats on their heads and straight swords at their waists.

From the outside, it is impossible to tell where they are from.

Lin Feng stood in front of the gate of Changzhi Prefecture, watching the various pirates coming and going.

After talking with Cheng Yue, he realized that the name of pirates was given to them by the Dazong people. In fact, the real name of these people living on the islands was the Dahe tribe.

Their ancestors cannot be traced back, but this group of people are on the edge of the Dahe clan.

They are not qualified to live on the main island of the Dahe tribe and can only live on the surrounding islands. Some islands close to the Dazong coastline have insufficient living supplies, so they run to Dazong to steal some things.

They robbed and robbed and became professional pirates.

Lin Feng looked at it for a while and wondered where to get a map.

Most people don't have this thing, unless they are in the military or family executives.

There are obviously more people here, and it would definitely not be a good idea to rob them.

In Lin Feng's opinion, stealing is the most appropriate method.

The two followed several carriages into the city gate.

The carriages were all inlaid with a flower bud logo, which showed that the carriages belonged to the rich or noble, so the guards at the city gates let them pass respectfully.

After entering the city gate, I found that there were not many people on the streets, but it was much more lively than the county town.

Because there were few young men, Lin Feng's appearance immediately attracted the attention of women of all ages walking on the street.

There was even a young woman who came up to talk to him with a very ambiguous look on her face.

Lin Feng was so scared that he quickly ran into a small alley, pulled down the bamboo hat on his head, and tore off a piece of his clothes to cover half of his face.

Fortunately, it is common to see people carrying face towels on the streets, and this is not an isolated case.

Just as the two of them had packed themselves up and were about to go back out onto the street, a small door on their side was unexpectedly opened.

Two women came out of the door, stood by it, bowed and waited.

An old man appeared at the door again, with his hands behind his back, stepping out of the threshold step by step.

He was full of vigor. He turned his head to look at Lin Feng and the others, frowning.

"What's going on? Let them get away."

Lin Feng was surprised to hear that the old man was speaking in a very common language.

A member of a big clan has such a high status here?

The two women immediately rushed to Lin Feng and the others, waving their hands and shouting.

That means telling them to leave quickly and not be so blind.

Lin Feng quickly shouted to the old man: "Hey, I understand."

The old man had already turned around and walked in another direction, but when he heard Lin Feng's shout, he immediately turned around and looked at Lin Feng in surprise.

"Wait, let him come over."

The old man waved to Lin Feng.

The two women made way for Lin Feng to pass and came to the old man.

The old man lowered his voice: "A member of the Dazong?"

Lin Feng nodded: "Yes, I was just about to go back, but I don't know the way."

He was not too afraid of exposing his identity. Based on his current skills, not to mention the pirate family members, even the pirate army would not be able to stop him if they wanted to leave.

The old man looked Lin Feng up and down suspiciously.

He looks very young. How could such a young person walk around the street by himself?

They were either killed by pirates or had their hands and feet tied and became slaves.

This person must have some background.

The old man thought for a moment and waved his hand.

"Come with me and change your clothes."

The old man took Lin Feng and turned back to the small door, then walked in with Lin Feng.

The two pirate wives stared at the old man, not daring to speak. They could only stand on both sides of the door, waiting for him to speak.

Lin Feng and Cheng Yue followed the old man into the house. The old man took out two pieces of clothes from the closet in the corner and asked Lin Feng to change into them.

While fiddling with his clothes, he said, "It's not easy to leave. We need a guide. Without someone to lead the way, we can't leave Changzhi Prefecture at all."

While Lin Feng was changing his clothes, he asked, "Uncle, where can I get a map?"

The old men's wrinkled faces were squeezed together.

"Map? Can you understand that thing?"

"If there is, I'll definitely understand it."

"I know you're not a simple person. I'll get you a map, but you have to agree to one condition."

The old man stared at Lin Feng and said.

Lin Feng smiled and said, "Would you like me to take you away?"

The old man shook his head: "I am old, my hometown is in Changzhi Prefecture, I am not going anywhere, but I have a son, can you take him away?"

Lin Feng nodded and said, "No problem, as long as he is willing to go."

The old man was delighted: "Okay, he must leave here. They are all a bunch of beasts. How can they be compared with our Great Dynasty?"

"What are you going to do for us to change clothes?"

"I'm the chef who cooks for the city lord here. I know you two are from a large clan, so I wanted to help you leave. But now it seems you have to wait until I get the map."

After saying that, he put his hands behind his back and walked around the room twice.

"Young man, I have seen this map before, but it's not easy to get it out."

The old man looked at Lin Feng in embarrassment.

Lin Feng smiled and said, "How about you let me look at the map for a quarter of an hour?"

"Okay, my son is saved. I can tell from the looks of it that you are no ordinary person."

Just as Lin Feng was about to speak, one of the two women standing outside walked in.

She mumbled to the old man for a while.

The old man turned and walked out, talking as he walked.

"One of you stay here, and the other one comes with me to look at the map. I'm going to cook for the city lord soon."

Lin Feng shook his head, motioning Cheng Yue to stay here, and followed the old man out.

Cheng Yue was behind him with a sad face.

"Brother, please don't abandon me..."

She didn't dare speak loudly and spoke in a low voice.

Lin Feng didn't answer, but just waved his hand behind his back at her, indicating that he understood.

Lin Feng followed the old man out of the back door, walked out of the alley, turned right, crossed a street, and came to a tall gatehouse.

There were four guards with knives at the door, staring at Lin Feng fiercely.

The old man recorded Gollum's explanation to them in the pirate language.

After a while, the four guards stepped back and made way.

The old man is the chef of the mayor of Changzhi Prefecture. He is responsible for making four local specialty dishes. It is because these four dishes are authentic and delicious that he was able to save his life and was treated well by the mayor. His identity is quite special.

For a large group of people to be treated so well in a pirate's lair, their skills are truly amazing.

This is the truth that Lin Feng figured out.

The old man said that Lin Feng was his new apprentice, and that he came to help him today, otherwise the dishes would not be cooked well.

Only then did the guards let Lin Feng in.

Of course, they didn’t think that anything could go wrong with Lin Feng alone.

Besides, the old man's identity is there, and he is very favored by the city lord.

The two of them came to the kitchen in the house together. Behind Lin Feng were the two women, who were also the old man's assistants.

They entered the kitchen and the two women began to busy themselves with preparing ingredients, pots, stoves, cooking utensils and other items.
