Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Other than him, no one else had eaten the stuff he mentioned. Mu Yangling had eaten it in her previous life, but she had never even seen it in this life.

She wasn’t particularly interested in cumin. What she was interested in was chili. She had loved spicy food in her previous life. “Then, Old Master Chen, do you have these things on you now?”

Mu Yangling had once asked the merchants about chili, and many of them knew about it. Even the merchants from Chuangui liked to eat it, but because they knew that the people in the north didn’t like it, they didn’t bring any seeds with them. Some people did carry chili powder with them, but they only cared about eating it themselves. Most importantly, Mu Yangling wanted seeds, not stir-fried chili powder.

Old Master Chen smiled and turned around to take the cloth bag he carried with him. Smiling, he said, “I do have it on me.” He took out his things. Not only was there chili powder and cumin in a cloth bag, but there was also salt and even a small bottle of sauce.

Mu Yangling was speechless. “Old Master Chen, you really have everything one could need.”

“I’m used to it. I’ve traveled extensively. Sometimes, I’ll go out for months or even a year and a half. When I can’t find a shop or a village, I’ll have to sleep in the wild. Naturally, I have to carry this seasoning bag with me.”

Although Mu Yangling had also brought seasoning bags, there was only oil and salt.

She brought Old Master Chen’s things over and found a dented stone to wash it clean. Then, she poured some oil in, added salt, chili, and Old Master Chen’s sauce, and found a tree branch. She took out a dagger and divided one end into locks. Old Master Chen said in surprise, “Young lady, you have good knife skills.”

“I honed this skill by making brushes in the wild.” Mu Yangling waved her hand and shook off the broken splinters. She dipped the newly made brush in seasoning, and brushed it on the roe deer’s meat. As she brushed, she turned it. With her incredible strength, she could turn it with one hand, even though it usually required two people to do it together. This made Old Master Chen take a few glances at her.

Qi Xiuyuan and the others were already used to it. Even the two guards only took a glance before calmly turning their heads away.

The roe deer meat was roasted very quickly. Roasted with oil, the fragrance kept wafting out through the layer of meat that Mu Yangling had brushed with oil. Even Qi Xiuyuan, who was not very hungry, and Rong Xuan, who was more particular, stopped talking and sat around her.

“Nothing. What did you just say?”

Rong Xuan followed his gaze and looked at Qi Haoran, Mu Yangling, and the others. “Old Master Chen said that the area he walked in this afternoon was all filled with iron ore. However, we have to dig to know how much there is underneath. Moreover, the place he walked to isn’t far, and Luocong Mountain isn’t small. If we dig further, I’m afraid we won’t be able to finish it in a day tomorrow. Xiuyuan, we can’t stay away from the West Camp for too long.” “We’ll go back tomorrow. We’ll just send two more people to help.”

“There’s no need.” Old Master Chen said, “With the help of these two young lads, it’s enough. General Qi, it won’t be a secret anymore if more people know about it.”

Qi Xiuyuan smiled. “As long as Old Master Chen isn’t afraid of hard work, there’s no problem on our side.”

Old Master Chen waved his hand and said, “I’m used to living like this. Furthermore, you even sent two people to help me, so it’s not hard.”

Qi Xiuyuan stood up and bowed. “Thank you, Old Master Chen.”

Old Master Chen waved his hand and turned to Mu Yangling with a smile. “Young lady, help me brush more chili on this side. This little bit of spiciness isn’t spicy enough.”

As Qi Xiuyuan and the others were used to eating lighter flavors, this level of spiciness was just right for them. At this moment, they were already sweating profusely from eating. When they heard that Old Master Chen wanted more spicy food, they couldn’t help but click their tongues.

Mu Yangling didn’t dare to eat food that was too spicy, too. After all, in these ten years, she hadn’t eaten chili, and most of the spicy food she ate was ginger. Mu Yangling walked over to Old Master Chen and brushed a layer of red chili powder on his meat. She asked again, “Do you want to sprinkle some cumin?” Old Master Chen looked at her in surprise. “Young lady, do you know how to eat these two things? I think you’re very proficient when it comes to matching the spices, but don’t the people in Xingzhou Prefecture not like to eat them? Some people have never even heard of them.”

Smiling, Mu Yangling said, “My mother knows. Moreover, I often interact with those merchants. I heard them mention it before, that’s how I know how these two spices should be used.”

Although Old Master Chen didn’t believe her, he didn’t probe further. Brother Qi Xiuyuan trusted her, so why should he worry about this for them?

Rong Xuan glanced at Qi Xiuyuan, who shook his head slightly. Rong Xuan didn’t say anything else. As for Qi Haoran and Fan Zijin, they were already used to Mu Yangling knowing things that others didn’t.

At night, everyone set up camp here. As Rong Xuan and Qi Xiuyuan stood at a high place and looked down at them setting up the tent, he said, “Miss Mu is clearly just a hunter’s daughter, but she always knows something that others don’t. I heard that she even helped Haoran train the scout team together..”
