Chapter 518 Thank goodness, we weren't poisoned!
Chapter 518 Thank goodness, we weren't poisoned!
Ye Yinqiu nearly dropped the bowl she was holding.
He looked up blankly, finding it hard to believe.
Ye Yinqiu rested her wrist against the stainless steel basin, her mouth trembling for a long time before she finally opened it:
"Senior sister, are you... are you joking or serious?"
"Really? The shredded meat you ate was tenderloin, while yesterday we had pork belly. Wasn't it good?"
Jiang He was eating rabbit meat, and the words she spoke were inevitably muffled.
"It tastes good, but this monster meat... what kind of monster is it?"
Receiving the answer she least wanted, Ye Yinqiu felt half of her heart die.
Jiang He didn't notice Ye Yinqiu's emotions. She paused for a moment before saying:
"The meat of the Black Wind Pig is quite delicious. I'll borrow a few more from next door another day."
After hearing Jiang He's answer, Ye Yinqiu was completely heartbroken.
He looked at the rice in his bowl, feeling both amused and exasperated.
The spiritual food was delicious, but Ye Yinqiu had no idea it was made by a demon.
Online users on the StarNet claimed with absolute certainty that the meat they ate was monster meat, and he refuted their claims point by point.
result……
It's just wishful thinking on his part!
Ye Yinqiu lay on her back, unsure whether to put the basin down or not.
The aroma of garlic sprouts and shredded pork was still wafting through the air. Ye Yinqiu sniffed, his expression sorrowful.
The surrounding cultivators cast their gazes over.
Ye Yinqiu looked utterly dejected and pitiful.
The monks who were still in line did not know what had happened, and a few of them who were quick to eat had already started eating with rice.
The food today was as delicious as ever.
The pork in the garlic shoot and shredded pork dish is made exceptionally tender with the addition of starch, and when paired with the garlic shoots, it creates a unique and delicious flavor.
As for the other dish...
Spicy rabbit heads are not considered spiritual food but are a common dish.
But the late-night snack that once caused the people of Chengdu, the "City of Abundance," to collectively rebel must have had an indescribable flavor.
The spicy rabbit head is fragrant and delicious. After just one bite, the rich flavor lingers on the tip of the tongue and in the mouth.
After stewing, the rabbit head meat became tender and smooth, and Shangguan Linghu spat out some rabbit bones in less than a minute.
She was completely absorbed in the soft, glutinous, and fragrant flavor.
The numbing sensation of Sichuan peppercorns and the spiciness of dried chili peppers intertwine, constantly stimulating Shangguan Linghu's appetite.
The spicy rabbit head once overpowered the flavor of the garlic sprouts and shredded pork.
Shangguan Linghu was preoccupied with cooking and, like most cultivators, didn't notice Jiang He's side.
Zhang Wan glanced at Ye Yinqiu with a hint of doubt. Ye Yinqiu looked dejected and, unusually, wasn't enjoying his meal.
Zhang Wan had seen Ye Yinqiu many times, and he always saw the man holding a bowl of rice. To him, the food today was absolutely delicious, and Ye Yinqiu shouldn't be behaving like this.
The bewildered cultivators followed Zhang Wan and looked over:
"Ye Yinqiu, if you don't eat soon, it'll get cold! Wasting food is shameful!"
"Yeah, Ye Yinqiu, why do you look so melancholy? Are you exhausted from today's lessons? You don't even want to eat. This is so unlike you."
"Is this something I can say? Ye Yinqiu, I don't mind that you've already eaten this food, so give it to me. I love it."
As Ye Yinqiu listened, her body, which had been lying on the ground, suddenly straightened up, and then quickly protected the bowl beneath her.
I have to agonize over whether to eat or not, and I also have to keep an eye on these starving ghosts.
Tired.
Ye Yinqiu pouted: "You guys eat, don't end up like me, unable to laugh."
Sigh, monster meat is poisonous. I wonder if it will kill me. As Ye Yinqiu thought this, the aroma of spicy rabbit head and shredded pork with garlic sprouts wafted up.
The two dishes were not clearly distinguishable and were now mixed together.
The combination of Sichuan peppercorns and the aroma of braising creates an irresistible numbing and spicy fragrance. The spicy rabbit head has a moderate level of spiciness. Ye Yinqiu had already tried a piece earlier, and the combination of numbing spiciness and rich flavor made it irresistible.
The moment Ye Yinqiu touched the food in the bowl, his gaze was fixed on it. He swallowed hard, listening to the sounds of the other cultivators chewing. Ye Yinqiu could no longer bear it:
"To die beneath a rabbit's head is to be a ghost of unparalleled bliss!"
Ye Yinqiu stuffed her cheeks bulging with a mouthful of shredded meat, a bite of rabbit head, and rice. The cultivator next to her was about to stop her when he witnessed Ye Yinqiu's wild eating habits:
"You... this still contains monster meat, why don't you observe it a little longer..."
Eat some more?
Before he could finish the last two words, the cultivator stared intently at Ye Yinqiu, his appetite so delicious that it clouded his judgment.
Those cultivators who were close to Jiang He and Ye Yinqiu knew about their conversation.
Looking at the two of them now, his fingers, which had been paused, began to move again:
"Senior Sister just said that this spirit food is made from the flesh of demons, right?"
"Yes, it's still Black Wind Pig, and it's not tenderloin."
"Monster meat is highly poisonous, yet it exists in spirit food. Is it safe to eat it?"
……
It's normal that everyone was engrossed in their own world and didn't listen to Ye Yinqiu when they got their food.
But now, the cultivators around Ye Yinqiu are practically telling them to their faces that the shredded pork in this garlic sprout dish is made from demonic ingredients.
Their words were clear, and almost two-thirds of the monks put down their chopsticks upon hearing the news.
Are you kidding me?
Are spirit foods really made from monster meat?
This is far more sensational than the news that Jiang He used nutrient solution to refine pills.
Many cultivators were stunned and didn't react at all. It wasn't until they had swallowed their food several times that a look of surprise appeared on their faces.
"Monster meat? Really? I've already eaten half of it."
"This is the first time I've heard that monsters can be used to refine spiritual food. I'm really finding it hard to give up this food now. Has anyone checked the StarNet for any related literature that would allow me to eat with peace of mind?"
"We've checked, and there's no precedent for using monster meat to make spiritual food."
"Oh no, does that mean we're going to die?"
"Maybe?"
"If you're going to die, please tell me. I ate the rest of my food. Waaah, my shredded pork with garlic sprouts, Mom loves you."
Amidst the wailing and howling of the crowd, Ye Yinqiu finished licking the bottom of the basin and looked up, only to see many copied and pasted mournful and hesitant faces, almost identical to his own just now.
After making up her mind, Ye Yinqiu regained her rationality.
So what if I ate the monster's flesh? At worst, my cultivation level will just decrease.
He was too panicked when he first learned the truth, but now that he thinks about it, he also ate it yesterday and had no adverse effects at all. In fact, his cultivation level even improved a bit.
Besides, my senior sister and the two gatekeepers ate it all.
If monster flesh were poisonous, everyone would have died together long ago, and there wouldn't even be a need to dig up graves.
Ye Yinqiu let out a long string of burps:
"Don't panic, everyone. Monster meat is poisonous, but we haven't been poisoned to death, have we?"
