The pot was full of rotten meat, and it was impossible to tell which part of the body it came from; it was all piled up softly and limply.
Maggots swarmed and crawled on the rotting flesh.
Black, rotting flesh oozed black blood, mixed with maggots.
A putrid smell wafted over.
Just one glance made Bai Xizhu feel nauseous.
Fortunately, Bai Xizhu and Leng Yebai have strong mental fortitude, otherwise they would have exploded.
The butcher, the cook, and the foreman sat opposite, their eyes fixed on Bai Xizhu and Leng Yebai.
This is the final test they must overcome.
This test was to see if Leng Yebai and Bai Xizhu had been completely bewitched by Xiao Guai. If they passed the test, it would mean that they were the three people's most loyal guests.
"The stewed goose in an iron pot smells so good! It's something most people can't get to eat! Come on! You guys should try some!"
The foreman pretended to approach the large pot, took a deep breath, and suppressed his nausea. Then he took out his chopsticks, picked up a large chunk of rotten meat, and put it into Leng Yebai and Bai Xizhu's bowls.
Bai Xizhu looked down and saw that the bowl contained not only rotten meat but also small, boneless animals that were constantly wriggling.
The little animals slowly climbed up the white bowl, fell down, and stubbornly continued to climb.
Leng Yebai's expression remained calm, but Bai Xizhu could already sense the slight fluctuations of his supernatural power emanating from him.
Bai Xizhu slowly shifted her gaze away, her fingers twitched slightly, and the datura flower on her wrist began to emit a very peculiar fragrance.
Bai Xizhu and Leng Yebai sat silently without moving.
But in the eyes of the three butchers, the scene suddenly changed.
They "saw" Bai Xizhu and Leng Yebai drooling as they looked at the stewed goose in the iron pot.
They "saw" that Bai Xizhu and her companion picked up the rotten meat with their chopsticks and put it into their mouths without hesitation.
Without the slightest hesitation, Leng Yebai and Bai Xizhu would have eaten the rotten flesh if no one had stopped them.
"Wait!"
The cook suddenly reached out and stopped Bai Xizhu and her companion, his smile becoming even more greasy.
"The stewed goose in the iron pot doesn't seem to be fully cooked. Wait a moment, I'll stew it for a while longer."
In fact, Bai Xizhu and Leng Yebai didn't move at all; they only saw the cook suddenly reach out and make a gesture to stop them.
This is a hallucination seen by the cook, butcher, and contractor under the influence of the fragrance of datura flowers.
The datura flower interfered with the minds of the three cooks, causing them to see the images they wanted to see.
The foreman also stood up, took away the bowls in front of Bai Xizhu and Leng Yebai, and replaced them with clean ones.
Before Bai Xizhu and Leng Yebai break through to a higher level of superhuman ability users, they cannot become zombies.
The cook simply took the large pot away, saying he would stew it again when he got home. In fact, less than a minute later, the cook brought out another large pot.
This time, Bai Xizhu smelled a rich aroma of meat.
Opening the pot lid releases a wonderful aroma; this is truly authentic braised goose in an iron pot.
"From now on, you are truly our guests. If you want the crystal cores from the brains of superhumans, bring the crystal cores from the brains of zombies to exchange for them. Ten crystal cores of the same rank can be exchanged for one crystal core from the brain of a human superhuman of the same rank!"
The butcher ate goose leg with gusto, chatting and laughing with Bai Xizhu and the other woman.
Bai Xi and Zhu didn't want to eat anything in the courtyard, so the fragrance of the datura flowers became even stronger.
Now, they no longer needed to pretend. They simply sat leisurely on the stools, and the butcher and his men automatically imagined Bai Xizhu and her companion as well-behaved.
The scent of datura flowers can make enemies who smell the fragrance imagine the scene they most want to see.
Perhaps they saw that Bai Xi and Zhu were performing very well, so they started talking more and more, unlike when they were silent at the beginning. After a while, they would ask if the conversation was pleasant or not.
This time, we really had a very pleasant chat.
The cook was happily gnawing on the meat when he frowned and sighed softly, "It would be even better if we had some wine here."
Cooks, butchers, and contractors are all meat lovers and heavy drinkers; it's a real shame they don't drink when eating hearty dishes.
In the apocalypse, it's really rare to eat such a hearty dish.
"Forget about the wine. Monkey King forbids us from drinking. He said that Sun Wukong caused havoc in Heaven and was imprisoned under the Five Fingers Mountain by Buddha because he was drunk, and that it could easily lead to trouble!"
The contractor, reminiscing about the carefree days he spent drinking, suddenly found the goose he was eating tasteless.
Bai Xizhu and Leng Yebai exchanged a glance.
Is there really a person named Monkey King?
Could this person be Wang Ge?
Bai Xizhu took the datura flower out of her pocket, and the fragrance became even stronger, drifting towards the three people opposite her.
"Brother Monkey is really heartless!" the cook muttered.
"Forget it, stop talking, people will die."
The butcher glanced at the zombies in the yard and waved to the two of them.
The two instantly realized what was happening and stopped talking.
Next, no matter how much the datura flower released its fragrance, the three of them still did not reveal Monkey King's true identity.
All we know is that some of the crystal cores used for sale were provided by Monkey King!
However, Bai Xizhu unexpectedly received a list.
The list of these three "guests" includes many powerful individuals with special abilities, and a large portion of them are from the Yunhua Security Base.
All the powerful superhumans have gone to the Yunhua Safe Base.
These are all the "sheep" they raise. When these superhumans reach a certain level and can no longer rise, that's when Butcher and his gang will collect the high-level crystal cores!
