Chapter 1693: Chapter 1673:
But afterwards, they found the correct task location. Compared to the back mountain, this place seemed more mysterious, and you even had to register to enter the task area! The only benefit was that they no longer needed to pay with Glory Points...
Following the small river, they quickly gathered all the items needed for the task. However, at this moment, they paused and did not leave immediately.
He Wenyu swallowed his saliva: "Isn’t that the same fire chicken from last time?"
"Looks like it is." Luo Qianqian also swallowed her saliva, her eyes sparkling with a peculiar light.
"Shall we go for it?" He Wenyu continued swallowing.
"Let’s go!"
The two of them, ignoring the strange expressions of the two guys, charged straight at the leisurely chicken drinking water.
"There’s a rabbit! There’s a rabbit!!!" After capturing the chicken, He Wenyu looked to the side and shouted to Luo Qianqian.
Luo Qianqian immediately rolled over ungracefully beside the rabbit, knocking it out with her Thousand Mechanism Box. Holding the enormously plump rabbit weighing over a dozen pounds and a chicken weighing the same, the two of them exchanged wild grins.
Di Jun: "Don’t you think those two look like they’re up to something fishy?"
Long Tu: "All I know is, we have good food again."
With that, they decisively stepped forward to help. Upon hearing this, the Emperor’s eyes brightened, disregarding any issue of image, effortlessly knocking out a fish with a weapon and skewering it. Wasn’t he doing this too skillfully?
Moreover, looking at Luo Qianqian and He Wenyu, one could clearly understand one thing: this stuff is definitely tastier than noodles!
Plucking the feathers, dissecting the animals, with such careful attention to detail, they were afraid the taste would be compromised if the food entering their mouths wasn’t clean.
Instead, the two most excited people had to gather firewood as their tasks were taken over by the others.
Luo Qianqian held a pile of branches: "Aren’t you going to collect more? I feel like we might have frequent picnics in the future."
"I collected some earlier. But I can’t just have branches, right? Besides, there’s another important issue." He Wenyu naturally picked up the branches Luo Qianqian had dropped, holding them with a serious look at Luo Qianqian.
"What?" Luo Qianqian instinctively swallowed again, a bit nervous.
"I’m out of barbecue seasoning." He Wenyu said very seriously.
"Oh, I thought it was something serious." Luo Qianqian placed the branches on the ground, took some seasoning from the Xuanming Ring in the Thought Pouch hanging around her neck, and handed it to He Wenyu: "Anything else you need?"
"Do you have matches?" He Wenyu continued to ask.
"Got those too, what a coincidence..." Luo Qianqian had replaced all her lighters with matches because they seemed too modern.
Seeing that all the materials were ready, He Wenyu collected them all and smiled at Luo Qianqian, "Alright, just wait to eat in a while."
"I’ll bring some back for Mier later too. Last time we ate hers without giving a thank-you gift. Saying we’d treat her to a meal, we never did..." Luo Qianqian quickly said.
He Wenyu knowingly nodded, after all, reciprocation is part of basic courtesy.
"Bring a rabbit leg and a chicken leg?" He Wenyu immediately suggested, "We have four people anyway; four legs should be enough."
Luo Qianqian also nodded, makes sense!
Then, after the grill was set up, both men watched intently as He Wenyu worked. Luo Qianqian stood by holding a beautiful ceramic plate with dipping sauce on it.
"What’s this?" Di Jun looked puzzled at the sauce on Luo Qianqian’s plate.
"Seasoning. Since it’s such a large piece, even if brushed with sauce, only the outside will be flavored, not the inside. The unseasoned parts will taste good when dipped." Luo Qianqian’s eyes were fixed on He Wenyu, not turning to look at Di Jun at all.
"...Is that so?" Di Jun looked at the various colored, oily, watery, and powdery seasonings on Luo Qianqian’s plate, a bit dumbfounded.
Is this really not some poison recipe? Why do the colors look so strange?
On the contrary, Long Tu looked very calm, directly taking a plate and mixing a sauce like Luo Qianqian.
Only Di Jun was left, while He Wenyu’s sauce had already been prepared in advance by Luo Qianqian.
As best friends, who knows each other’s tastes better than them?
...
Time passed for a while, and Luo Qianqian felt her stomach growling, but the two large pieces in front of her showed no signs of cooking through. Suddenly, Luo Qianqian couldn’t take it anymore. She reached out to He Wenyu, "Give me the frying pan!"
"What do you want the frying pan for?" He Wenyu asked, puzzled, yet still handed it over to Luo Qianqian.
"So slow..." Luo Qianqian pouted, pointing at the two pieces of food that only seemed to have changed color. She poured oil into the pan and then took a dagger from her chest, skillfully slicing the meat...
"I don’t know why, but seeing you cutting meat..." Before He Wenyu finished speaking, Luo Qianqian’s deep memory was suddenly stirred, making her face turn ugly.
She then put down the pan and dagger, quickly walked to the side, and began to dry heave...
She actually forgot, after all these days, she had forgotten what she had done before...
Was it because life in the academy was too peaceful? Or because Luo Mier was so wonderful, making her feel no competition? So she forgot, that she used to be a crazy bloodthirsty devil...
"Shiqi..." He Wenyu hurriedly stood up in worry and walked to Luo Qianqian’s side.
Luo Qianqian forced a smile: "It’s nothing, but it seems I need to eat something else now..."
Before remembering, she’d eat and it was fine. But once remembered, forget about eating, even cutting meat was impossible...
"...Eat fish then, fortunately, Di Jun caught a lot earlier, and they cook quicker." He Wenyu sighed.
"Hmm." Luo Qianqian slowly nodded, her eyes filled with a sense of helplessness.
On the other side, Di Jun looked utterly confused: "What’s going on?"
Long Tu, holding the pan, picked up the dagger and took over Luo Qianqian’s work, calmly choosing to start slicing the meat for grilling...
When He Wenyu and Luo Qianqian returned with the fish, they were extremely surprised to see this scene.
"You can grill too?" He Wenyu was surprised looking at Long Tu with the meat in the pan. Earlier, she thought he was a bit introverted and didn’t like to talk, and now she saw him in a new light.
Indeed... if introverted people don’t have some practical survival skills, they might starve...
"Remember to save me a rabbit leg and a chicken leg," Luo Qianqian quietly said, hugging the fish as she moved it to a small fire.
Why hadn’t she thought of that incident from the start?
It must be because nothing beats the pure, natural aroma compared to the taste of that crummy meat!
