Fog City

When I heard this familiar place name.

Jiang Jin couldn't help but ask: "Is this where that guy Hannibal came?"

"Well, that's right there, the headquarters of the Fog City Culinary Association...it's also the most famous crime city in Canglong."

Speaking of this matter, Cassandra's expression became a little strange.

Anyone who lives in the Canglong Empire should have heard the name "City of Fog".

As its name suggests, the city is filled with thick smog all year round.

The streets and alleys are filled with mist, which is so dense that you can't even see your fingers when it's densest. It's very exaggerated.

Such a special geographical environment naturally leads to the gathering of a type of people...that is, various fugitives.

The special environment of the foggy city makes people accustomed to wearing masks when going out, and the visibility is also very poor.

So much so that even a fugitive with a wanted poster just walked past the garrison.

Even the most sharp-eyed garrison knights in the garrison may not be able to realize that the target is close at hand.

In addition, the foggy city is humid all year round, with heavy rainfall all year round, and the underground drainage pipe system is also intricate.

So many fugitives squatted in the sewers after arriving in the foggy city, and they felt as friendly as returning home.

When Jiang Jin heard this, it was really eye-opening. He didn't expect that there was such a place in the world.

However, he still asked with some doubts:

"Since we know that Fog City is full of fugitives, why not just remove this city? It wouldn't be difficult to change the city."

According to Jiang Jin’s knowledge, there were many cases of city relocation in ancient times.

There are also all kinds of extraordinary powers in this world. It is obviously not impossible to destroy the fog city and build a new city.

"This... I'm telling you quietly, but don't tell anyone."

Although there was no one around, Cassandra still leaned over and whispered in Jiang Jin's ear:

"Actually, the situation in Fog City was deliberately kept by Canglong's senior management, saying that instead of letting rats run around everywhere, it would be better to keep them together and do a sweep every once in a while, which would save worry and effort."

"...This is okay, but they can do it."

After hearing this inside information that few people knew, Jiang Jin really felt like she couldn't laugh or cry.

Ignoring the strange situation of the foggy city, it turned into a crime city, attracting fugitives from all over the world.

Every once in a while, clean up these messy fugitives, make room, and continue to entertain the next batch of guests.

To describe it this way, it feels like the city is like a large mousetrap.

It’s no wonder that strange organizations like the “Fog City Culinary Association” were born.

Because the city itself is very strange...it can only be said to be a congenial one.

However, it is precisely in the unique geographical environment of the foggy city that a special kind of bird grows, the "black-feathered chicken."

According to Cassandra's knowledge, this kind of black-feathered chicken has jet black feathers and a bright red comb.

The most special thing is that the black-feathered chicken tastes very delicious and is a good ingredient.

"I once ate black-feathered chicken at a banquet. It was indeed much more delicious than ordinary chicken."

"Black-feathered chicken...sounds good."

Cassandra's introduction made Jiang Jin a little moved.

But the problem is that Wudu City is located in the southwest of Canglong Empire.

That city is some distance away from here, so it’s not that convenient to get there.

If Jiang Jin simply made this trip just for the black-feathered chicken, it would be somewhat...

Yeah

Wait

When he thought of this, Jiang Jin suddenly frowned.

Because he thought of two other things that could be done in Wudu City besides "Black Feather Chicken".

Suddenly, Jiang Jin raised his head and asked Cassandra:

"By the way, do you know a plant called 'Dragon's Heather'?"

"Dragon Family Heather knows, why do you ask this?"

"Can you find this kind of plant near Fog City?"

"There must be. This kind of plant grows around the dragon's cave. There are dragon's caves everywhere in Canglong's wild area."

For almost all residents living in the Canglong Empire.

"Dragon's Photinia" is a very common plant, and you can see a lot of it just by walking around the countryside.

This plant usually grows near dragon lairs and is grown by pouring dragon dung that is almost as hot as the lava.

Therefore, the temperature of this plant is extremely high. Ordinary residents passing by can only take a few glances at it from a distance, but basically do not get close to it.

Of course, there is another reason why no one wants to get close.

Another even more embarrassing thing about this peculiar plant is that it exudes a strange smell.

Although the taste of most plants is very strange, this kind of strangeness is not ordinary strangeness.

But...ahem, it smells like some kind of male secretion, everyone knows it.

Why does Jiang Jin know about a strange plant like Dragon's Phoebe?

This is also thanks to an investigation report that Lana Thel showed him when he was investigating Hannibal.

On the handwritten report by the special investigator of the "Fog City Culinary Association".

There was once a description of this plant, which left a very deep impression on Jiang Jin.

For Jiang Jin at that time, he had no idea about this plant.

It's hot, has a strange smell, and grows in the distant Canglong Empire.

Logically speaking, it should be something that is incomparable to Jiang Jin.

But for Jiang Jin now, he has some ideas about this strange plant.

Because he has been busy studying how to cook that pile of dragon meat perfectly for the past two days.

Although the fresh dragon meat left in the safe house still weighs dozens of kilograms.

But only if it is cooked perfectly, can dragon meat maintain its complete holy energy until it is absorbed by eating.

If you eat it normally, it would be a complete waste of resources and treasure.

Therefore, we must find a way to cook dragon meat perfectly.

In this regard, Jiang Jin has been studying for a while but still can't figure it out.

In the end, it can only be attributed to the lack of auxiliary materials on hand.

After all, judging from the previous cooking of "Aquatic Demon Fish", the spring water used in breeding was used.

To completely cook dragon meat, you may also need similar auxiliary materials...such as the related dragon family heather.

Although it is strange to say this, the plant itself has a wide range of functions, and it is also a medicinal herb.

In Jiang Jin's original world, the seeds of heather can be squeezed for oil to make soap, the roots can be used to extract roasted gum, and the fruits can also be used as raw materials for wine making.

Dried heather leaves can be used medicinally, with diuretic, antipyretic, and analgesic effects.

Thinking from this perspective, does "Dragon's Heather" have similar effects and can assist in cooking dragon meat?

After mentioning this idea to Cassandra, she unexpectedly agreed with it.

"Indeed, although the smell of dragon's heather is unpleasant, its seeds are indeed edible."

"Is there such a thing as the core inside?"

"Well, someone peeled off the surface of the dragon's heather, took out the seeds inside, and processed it into a dessert. It is said that it tastes sweet, and it also has..."

Having said this, Cassandra paused for a moment, and then whispered:

"It has the effect of strengthening the body, especially for couples... that... that is very beneficial."

Cassandra is a girl after all, so she is somewhat shy when talking about those more secretive things.

But in fact, in the Canglong Empire, many upper-class nobles know that the dragon family heather seeds have such magical effects, and it is considered an open secret.

And after seeing her slightly blushing expression...

Jiang Jin also turned his face away in embarrassment, and the atmosphere in the air became slightly awkward.

Of course, it is not impossible for Jiang Jin to understand that the dragon family heather has such a magical effect.

Because it is true that many plants have similar effects, and they were already familiar with them before he traveled through time.
