hiss……

What the hell is this?

Even I, a celestial being, am finding it hard to control myself?

Just like him, Jiang Lu, who couldn't control himself when faced with delicious food, was also unable to resist.

Like Qianmo, Jiang Lu had just managed to stop coughing.

It's strange, really.

Even though it was the culprit that had been making him cough for half a day, Jiang Lu couldn't help but want to put his nose close to it and smell it.

Even if it makes my cough worse, I still can't control myself.

That pungent aroma is simply irresistible.

Picking up the chopsticks beside him, Jiang Lu decided to stop holding back.

But just as he was about to pick up his chopsticks, Huanfeng stopped him.

He said with a worried look, "Master, should we put this dish aside for now?"

Jiang Lu was taken aback and asked, puzzled, "Why is that?"

Huanfeng glanced down at the stir-fried pork in front of him and said with a wry smile, "Please forgive me, sir, this is called chili pepper. I've eaten it a few times before, and its power is not to be underestimated."

Jiang Lu was even more confused.

"Not to be underestimated? What, this thing can explode?"

Huanfeng quickly explained, "It's almost like an explosion. When you eat this, it feels like an energy bomb explodes in your mouth, and your whole body gets excited."

"Oh? Now that you've explained it, I'm even more interested."

Huanfeng stopped him again, saying, "Master, Master, please wait and let me finish what I have to say."

Jiang Lu got angry.

With a loud "bang," he slammed his chopsticks on the table and angrily said, "You're the one who told me to eat here, and now you're the one who won't let me eat when I want to. What exactly do you want?"

Huanfeng quickly explained, "Master, Master, it's not like that. I... well, let me just say it bluntly, this chili pepper has a strong aftereffect. You might feel a little uncomfortable after eating it."

Jiang Lu retorted, "But is it poisonous? Then I'll just smash this shop up."

"It's not poisonous. On the contrary, it can accelerate the absorption and burst speed of spiritual energy. It's just a little inconvenient to go to the toilet after eating."

"Hmph, you're really getting worse as you get older. You're supposed to be at the Great Ascension Realm, yet you still need to relieve yourself. We immortals don't need to do such filthy things."

After saying that, he ignored his grand-disciple and picked up his chopsticks again.

As if to demonstrate his skills to his grand-disciple, Jiang Lu picked up a mouthful of chili peppers with his chopsticks.

He even put his iPhone 24 next to him to record a video.

After showing off their dishes in front of the camera, they easily and happily put them into their mouths.

...

Sometimes it's really the right thing to be patient and listen to advice.

Jiang Lu now feels he should be more patient and listen to his grand-disciple's advice.

The moment he took a bite, he felt like he wasn't eating food at all, but a ball of fire.

The lips, mouth, and tongue all seemed to lose their function at the same time.

The flame was so intense that it made my whole body sweat profusely.

"call……"

Jiang Lu felt the fire in his mouth was burning too intensely, so he quickly opened his mouth and exhaled.

But this only provided a slight relief, and it was soon replaced by flames again.

Turning my head, I spotted the golden fried rice on the side.

"Grand-disciple...this...hiss...whoosh...is this golden fried rice spicy?"

Huanfeng quickly replied, "It's not spicy."

Jiang Lu didn't have time to waste any more words.

Sweat poured down his forehead like a waterfall, almost obscuring his eyes.

He picked up the fried rice and stuffed a big mouthful into his mouth.

As Jiang Lu continued chewing, his expression gradually became more and more interesting.

Because the spiciness was too extreme, his taste buds couldn't detect any other flavors at all.

After being neutralized by the golden fried rice, his taste buds gradually returned to normal.

The aroma of pork belly, the tenderness of chili peppers, and the rich flavor of rice all explode in your mouth at the same time.

Each distinct grain of rice seemed to spread all the flavors in my mouth evenly.

Chewing each grain of rice brings a deep sense of satisfaction and happiness.

Jiang Lu instantly felt as if his taste buds had been elevated.

Moreover, the extremely spicy sensation in my mouth has dissipated considerably.

So, Jiang Lu couldn't wait to put another big chopstick of stir-fried pork into his mouth.

And this time he learned his lesson; he didn't even chew after putting the rice in his mouth, and immediately took another big bite of the golden fried rice.

Huanfeng, watching from the sidelines, was at a loss for what to do.

The advisor's cheeks bulged out so high, like a hamster eating.

Should I laugh, or should I not laugh?

Laugh, that's the best advisor you can have. Laughing would be really unfair.

It's not funny... It's really hard to hold back!

My thighs are all bruised from being pinched!

Jiang Lu couldn't see his own reflection; he was completely absorbed in the food and couldn't pull himself away.

This dish also contains pork belly and tenderloin, adding a lot of flavor variations to this rice bowl.

Although the pork belly was stir-fried until it was a bit dry, there was still a lot of fat inside the meat.

As you chew, the oil seeps into the rice, and then the aroma permeates your very bones.

Jiang Lu is certainly not stupid.

He seems to have also discovered the correct way to eat these two dishes.

He simply picked up the plate and placed it upside down on the golden fried rice.

He thought to himself with smug satisfaction, "This is the right way to eat! I'm a fucking genius!"

Ye Feng has a habit when cooking.

He would remove any seasonings that couldn't be eaten directly before the dish was finished.

For example, spices like Sichuan peppercorns, star anise, and ginger can ruin the overall flavor when eaten.

So no matter how much you crave his food, you won't be disappointed.

The direct consequence of this is that Jiang Luxuan simply can't stop.

A plate of stir-fried pork and a plate of golden fried rice were quickly devoured.

Even the last drop of soup and the last grain of rice were elegantly scraped clean by Jiang Lu using her magical powers and put into her mouth.

"Heh...not bad, not bad. My strange grand-disciple didn't lie to me after all. This main course is a must. It's completely different from the dessert."

Huanfeng was pleased to hear his advisor's praise and said with a smile, "These are just the regular dishes. There will be another regular dish and a soup next. The fourth dish will be the main course of the day, so please save some room for me, Advisor."

Jiang Lu was even more satisfied now, and his heart was filled with anticipation.

If the regular dishes are already so delicious, how delicious must the main dishes be?

This trip was definitely worthwhile!

This grandson is doing really well; I'll have to give him some proper guidance in his cultivation later.

As Jiang Lu made his decision, he picked up the iPhone 24 that he had just put aside.

He started tapping on the screen again, deleting the footage of himself devouring Hai Xuan and then uploading a photo of himself with a big smile.

Open the Douyin short video app and post a video.

"If you've ever eaten this dish like me, then I have to say, it's truly—spicy enough to make you cry!"
