Ranch Story: Start Over

Feng Ling didn't dare drive too fast. On the one hand, he was taking care of Lin's body. She was too weak. Feng Ling had experienced this feeling of hunger sticking to his back before when he had low blood sugar and took a long-distance bus. He was almost devastated.

Seeing Lin who was extremely hungry, Feng Ling gritted his teeth. He still had merit points left, so he spent 5 merit points to buy a finished apple from the fruit list in the mall.

"Senior sister, here you go."

"Ah, why didn't you take out the apples earlier?"

Lin quickly snatched the apple from Feng Ling's hand and gobbled it up. Wow, Feng Ling was also amazed by this performance. Who says girls have small mouths, especially a lady like Lin.

You can’t tell at other times, but now he’s really fast at biting into an apple.

Seeing the big apple in her hand being bitten continuously by Lin, soon, 1/3 of the flesh was eaten by Lin, and Lin's eyes gradually became clear from the dull eyes and painful expression in her weak state, and she came back to her senses.

"This apple is delicious, Feng Ling. I've never eaten such a delicious apple before. It's big, sweet, and filling. I'm almost full after eating less than half of it. Do you have any more?"

After taking a few more bites, Lin suddenly said:

"No, Senior Sister, there is only one of this. Don't ask me if I have any more. This thing is not cheap."

"If you don't want to give it to me, then don't give it to me. Who cares? Feng Ling, let's go to Mayor Thomas's house now."

The apples in the mall give +15 satiety, +5 pleasure, and instantly restore 10 stamina. They don’t even have any magicka restoration effect. And yet, the apples with 5 merit points are the cheapest ones. The price is ridiculous.

Feng Ling glanced at Lin who was sitting in the passenger seat.

"Senior sister, stop making trouble, I'll take you back first.

Go home and change your clothes and we'll go with Uncle Dart. Of course, if you don't mind, I can barely accept you wearing this outfit."

Looking at Feng Ling with a smirk on his face, Lin glanced at herself, said "Pooh" and tilted her head to look out the window without saying anything else. She felt much better now, not as uncomfortable as before.

Feng Ling gradually accelerated and had already seen the landmark sign of Mineral Town. Feng Ling would be able to drive into the town soon, while Lin continued to eat the apple seriously.

Seeing two familiar-looking residents of Mineral Town working in tacit understanding, one person carried colored lights on poles to both sides of the street. The streets of Mineral Town seemed to be very busy today.

Feng Ling hurriedly slowed down. The residents of the town seemed to be preparing for something. Red festive lanterns were hung high, and big red welcome banners were also hung. The words on them seemed to be some kind of food festival.

Everyone's work speed was not slow at all. Everyone seemed to know their tasks and were proceeding in an orderly manner.

"Senior Sister, what's wrong with everyone today? It seems like they are celebrating something."

Lin took a look and then drew back and said:

"It's all because of you. Mayor Thomas prepared a food festival temporarily and invited powerful magicians and warriors from other towns to participate. You have a heavy task tonight. When I came back, I saw that the town hospital and pharmacist store had already made 25 bottles of out-of-stock strength potions and 25 bottles of magic potions. Each bottle costs 1. Mayor Thomas has fully replenished his supply.

Feng Ling heard this and thought, "So you're going to fight like that?" This attitude seems to indicate that he won't be able to have a safe night. He's preparing to use himself as a donkey in the production team.

Listening to Lin's words, Mayor Thomas, in order to ensure Feng Ling's status as a core figure, actually asked the herbal master, Master Wu, who was already 251 years old, to refine the potion.

This big guy who had been staying at home all year round and concentrating on researching medicine prescriptions was invited out. The unique strength potion and magic potion of Mineral Town were researched by him.

His disciple, Doctor Dort, has also taken all these into full consideration and prepared various medicines to deal with emergencies to prevent someone from eating too much tonight and causing other emergencies, as has happened in previous years.

In the past, the annual food festival was usually held after the autumn harvest. This year, due to Feng Ling's special participation, Mayor Thomas decided to hold it early to try out the effect.

Although the preparations were very rushed, Mineral Town, which had hosted food festivals for many years, was quite familiar with the process, so there was no worry about being underprepared.

As we drove along, the streets were exceptionally clean today. Several residents who manipulated wind magic were sweeping past like a gust of wind sweeping away fallen leaves. It was even more powerful than the road cleaning vehicles in the original world.

As in the past, the food festival was held in the largest residential square in Mineral Town.

Feng Ling looked at the square from afar. It was so busy. All kinds of ingredients were prepared by each household and put into the freezers and refrigerators at the food festival.

According to Lin, the energy consumption and exterior decoration on the day of the food festival are all paid for by the government. Residents only need to prepare their own supplies to participate. It is a work that completely promotes consumption, and all arrangements are made by residents voluntarily.

This time, looking at the mountain of beer piled high in the center of the square, there were ten circular barbecue grills, each of which was the familiar 10 meters long, forming a huge circle around the center of the square.

It looks very grand.

"Senior Sister, there are so many grills, I can't control them all by myself!"

"Don't worry, there will be barbecue masters from other towns to help you tonight. Although they are not at the level of magical cooking, they will be able to share the firepower with you. You just need to make sure that everyone can have a piece of delicious food you grilled."

Feng Ling looked at the pile of charcoal on the side of the Mineral Town Square. This kind of charcoal was not cheap at all, but with the help of this thing, as long as you know how to barbecue, everyone will definitely enjoy it.

Feng Ling and Lin finally drove back to the Dart Restaurant, and then changed the magic motorcycle. The little white car was kept in the cold storage by the apprentices in the kitchen, and they were warned not to drink the contents, as they were very useful and everyone had to drink it tonight, which was very important.

The apprentice boy admired Feng Ling in the first place. When he heard what he said, he nodded and agreed, and promised that he would guard it and not let anyone touch it. Then he drove into the warehouse and locked it.

Feng Ling waited outside for ten minutes, and Lin and Dart came out together. Lin, who had changed into light yellow casual clothes, sat in the passenger seat. Feng Ling was still driving, and Uncle Dart sat in the back.

"Feng Ling, Miss Lin just came back and told me that you have a new plan. What happened? Do you want to revise the plan?"

"Master, what we brought back today is very important. It's magic holy water!"

"In my spring water sampling truck?"

Dart knew the importance of magic holy water and how to store it, so he quickly asked:

"A whole truck full of magic holy water? Where did you get it? Is it legal?"

Seeing Dart asking three questions in a row with some nervousness, Lin quickly described what happened in the afternoon when Feng Ling entered the alchemist's inspiration burst state.

Dart's doubts gradually dispelled and his face became much better. Feng Ling quickly asked:

"Master, do you know that the magic holy water combined with the food made by a level 3 magic cooking apprentice has the effect of cleansing the marrow and strengthening the meridians? In fact, I am not an entry-level magic cooking apprentice, I am a level magic cooking apprentice."

Dart's expression was a little surprised, as if he had been mentally prepared, but he quickly calmed down. The magic holy water and the marrow cleansing were both related to tonight's food festival.

And now, because of Feng Ling's status as a level 3 magic cooking apprentice, both things are closely related to him.

"You know, for every ordinary person, marrow washing and meridian washing is a baptism of the body from the inside out. It is very expensive to do it in a hospital."

Dart closed his eyes and leaned on the back seat, unable to calm down at all.

Even though this child's personal realm is still at a very low level and he is only an intermediate magic swordsman, his only dazzling title is that he is the descendant of Feng Qingyang. But for a descendant of a down-and-out hero, the most he can do is remind others that he was very dazzling in the past.

But now, what he has done has far surpassed Feng Qingyang when he was young and at the same level, which is truly impressive.

"Master, these two matters are of great importance, so I must seek the opinions of you and Uncle Thomas. You are my master, and Uncle Thomas is the manager of the town. After all, I am still young, and I may not have considered many things carefully. I hope you can teach me more and let me contribute more to everyone in Mineral Town."

Dart felt very comfortable listening to Feng Ling's humble requests for advice from a junior and his respect for his elders.

"Let's go, Feng'er, let's go to Thomas's house and discuss it together. You are hiding too deeply, kid."

Feng Ling listened to Dart's change of words, the word "Feng'er". This time, Feng Ling was finally accepted by Dart psychologically, and he acknowledged Feng Ling as his apprentice.

"Okay, Master, sit tight, sisters!"
