That day, Hu Chi got off work very late.
Some employees at the restaurant have young children at home who have no one to take care of them, so they bring them to the restaurant and let them stay in the changing room.
The owner is kind-hearted; as long as the child doesn't run around and affect the store's business, he tolerates this behavior.
That night, there were a lot of guests.
The employees are too busy to have much time for their children.
Several children were playing hide-and-seek in the backyard when a three-year-old boy somehow fell into the large vat of broth.
The bucket was a full meter deep, and it was filled with a huge pot of bone broth.
The child fell in and went silent before he could even struggle.
By the time they found him, he was completely scalded.
After everyone left, Hu Chi, as if possessed, took a spoonful of the soup and tasted it.
Once he tasted it, he couldn't stop.
He usually eats at most half a small bowl of soup, but that time he drank five large bowls of soup in one go.
He even used the soup to cook some noodles and ate two bowls.
That's when he understood what the most delicious meat in the world was.
From then on, he was unstoppable.
Chicken, duck, fish, and meat are easy to buy, but people are not.
Just then, the evil cultivator gave him a cultivation manual.
He practiced for many days and achieved considerable results, so he used evil magic to lure a child.
But that's far from enough. He needs to eat every day, and how can one or two people be enough for him?
But if people are tied up every day, it will definitely be discovered after a while.
So he came up with a solution.
He used sorcery to brew a pot of soup, took it to a food festival—a place where foodies gather—and gave it away for free.
Anyone who tastes that soup will fall irrevocably in love with its flavor.
At this point, he can propose a deal.
They'd trade a piece of their flesh for a bowl of soup, no matter what kind of meat it was, even a finger would do.
In this way, he could have an endless supply of meat without worrying about being discovered.
People who are lured into making transactions usually regain their senses after a while. Because of fear and the fact that they haven't lost their lives, they don't report it to the police.
Hu Chi never expected to encounter someone as wavering in his resolve as Chen Zhonglong.
His obsession with food reached a pathological level, so the evil magic had a long-lasting effect on him and prompted him to actively harm others.
That's how it was discovered.
After the trial, Lu Qing abolished the evil energy he had cultivated and imprisoned him.
"Brother, have the local branches investigate all those food bloggers, especially those who eat in an exaggerated way. There might be some heretical cultivators among them."
"good!"
"Now we have clear directions for investigating the six desires: the eyes, ears, and mouth. Only the nose, body, and mind are still unexplored."
Wang Yanjun suddenly thought of something:
“Yesterday, a branch office called and said they had caught someone who used human oil to make perfume, which should correspond to the olfactory desire among the six desires.”
"Perfume!" Lu Qing stroked his chin.
She doesn't really like the smell of perfumes and doesn't have much experience with them, but her mother does enjoy collecting them.
Lu Qing had seen it before; there was a specially made perfume cabinet in the house that was kept at a low temperature all year round to prevent the perfume from evaporating.
The perfumes inside seem to cost at least seven figures!
When Lu Qing found out, he couldn't help but exclaim that it was simply outrageously extravagant.
“I know about this. I’ll go to the perfume exhibition when I have time. Maybe I can catch a few evil cultivators.”
But Lu Qing is probably too busy during this period.
Because Liu Changfeng assigned her another task, and the preliminary rounds were coming up soon, she didn't have a single free day.
After a busy day and night, Lu Qing and Gu Xicheng were so tired that they could barely keep their eyes open.
When I got home, I immediately took a nap, which lasted until the afternoon.
Fortunately, it was the weekend; otherwise, if Lu Qing had to work 8 a.m. the next day, she would have been filled with resentment again.
After getting up and having breakfast, Gu Xicheng took Lu Qing back to school.
He hasn't been at the company for the past few days; he has a lot of things piling up waiting to be dealt with.
After enjoying their last leisurely night, Lu Qing and her roommates threw themselves back into data calculation and drawing the next day.
The preliminary judging will take place in two weeks.
These past two weeks have been a nightmare for Lu Qing and her team; they've been overwhelmed by all the data they've been calculating.
Even after Lu Qing invited the God of Literature to consecrate and bless them, it didn't make much of a difference.
Fortunately, time flies when you're focused on something.
Two weeks passed quickly.
The work was finally submitted.
Liu Changfeng smiled and looked at the four people, saying:
The submission review and results will take about two weeks, so you can relax a bit during this time!
The four of them breathed a sigh of relief, their smiles looking rather pathetic.
"Teacher Liu, please don't call me next time there's a competition like this!" Lu Qing said with a wry smile.
Liu Changfeng raised an eyebrow:
"Just because of what you said, I'll look for you again for the next competition."
Lu Qing: "..."
Teacher, are you being polite?
"Alright! You guys go back and rest. Come to my house for dinner tonight, I'll cook you something nice to nourish you," Liu Changfeng said with a smile.
"Then I want sweet and sour pork ribs!"
"I want to eat grilled fish!"
"I want to eat scallion oil chicken!"
"..."
Without any hesitation, the group ordered their food.
Liu Changfeng quickly took out his memo and wrote it down:
"Okay! That's all, right? I'll go buy groceries after class!"
After leaving the office, the four of them went back to their dormitory to sleep.
He slept until evening, then went straight to Liu Changfeng's house for a free meal.
After getting to know Liu Changfeng, Lu Qing and the others treated this place like their own home.
After finishing his meal, he would put down his bowl and then sit on the sofa to watch TV.
Liu Changfeng cut up the fruit and brought it over to them, not forgetting to tease them:
"My little darlings, please have some fruit!"
"Thank you, Teacher Liu!"
Lu Qing picked up a piece of apple and ate it while sighing:
"Teacher Liu, you are more likable after class."
Liu Changfeng glared at him: "Say it again! If you say it again, I'll give you more homework next time!"
Lu Qing hurriedly clasped her hands together and said, "Teacher, I was wrong!"
Zhao Jin glared at Liu Changfeng: "How old are you? Stop scaring children!"
Liu Changfeng: "Just kidding!"
"Honey, don't be angry, sit down quickly."
Zhao Jin's belly has grown bigger than before, and she is now having a lot of trouble walking.
"Master's wife, are you about to give birth?"
Zhao Jin smiled and said, "There are still four weeks until my due date."
"We don't know if it's a boy or a girl, how about I tell you?"
"No need! Boy or girl is fine," Liu Changfeng said with a smile.
Lu Qing's eyes lit up when he looked at Zhao Jin's face. Zhao Jin's complexion was rosy and glowing, especially her children's palace, which showed great fortune. This meant that the child in her womb was very compatible with her destiny and was bringing her good luck.
"Master's wife, this child will bring you and your teacher better and better after he is born!"
"I think so too!" Zhao Jin stroked her belly happily.
Just then, Lu Qing suddenly sensed Lu Pan's presence.
It must be that the underworld system upgrade is complete, and he has come to deliver the news of Xi Yao's reincarnation.
