Chapter 329 It’s ok, let’s eat hot pot
"Cheng Yi!"
"Wanwan!"
By the time the couple came out of the space, it was almost half an hour later. Seeing them appear out of thin air again, everyone couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and then quickly rushed forward. Everyone's eyes were on Wei Chengyi. The lips that had been a strange purple not long ago had returned to their original color, and there was no sign of the dying look when he came back.
"Are you okay?"
Looking him up and down, Ji Shaohan raised his eyebrows and asked, at least from the outside, there seemed to be nothing unusual about him.
"Yeah, it's okay."
Wei Chengyi nodded in response to their gaze and slowly raised the corners of his lips. Looking at their expressions, he knew that he had not only scared Wanwan today, but also seemed to have scared them.
"I'm glad you're okay. I thought I was going to collect your body today."
Ji Shaohan raised his fist and hit his chest, saying in a deliberately teasing tone.
"Is there anyone like you who is a master?"
Xiao Zhi laughed unhappily, his eyes passing over Yan Lang and the others, finally settling on Yuan Shu and the others: "This time it was my own carelessness, it has nothing to do with you."
"yes."
Led by Yuan Su, the guards nodded in unison, but their spirits were still low, and it was obvious that they had not taken his words to heart.
Wei Chengyi frowned barely perceptibly. Just as he was about to say something else, Yan Lang suddenly moved forward to block his view. "Chengyi, I'm glad you're okay. Today is Wanwan's birthday. Let's not talk about unhappy things and think about how to celebrate her birthday."
Some things need time to heal. Yuan Shu and the others were his personal guards. Regardless of whether he was careless or not, they failed to protect him. Instead of forcing them not to blame themselves, it would be better to give them some time and let Qingying, the commander, comfort them privately. Maybe they will be fine in a few days.
"Um."
Wei Chengyi wasn't stupid and understood what he meant, but he didn't follow his words. He turned his attention to Shen Xiangwan and looked at them seriously and said, "There's something we haven't had the chance to talk about. Wanwan's space is different from others. Not only can she store and retrieve things, but she can also enter and exit at will, and even grow crops in it. It's a kind of mutated superpower. In addition, all superpowers can mutate, not just space. For example, ice-type superpowers are a mutation of water-type superpowers."
Since Wanwan has exposed the secret of the space because of him, they should take the initiative to give everyone an explanation to prevent them from making random guesses in private. Fortunately, they are all trustworthy people. However, he has not yet told everyone about the things in the future world in Wanwan's space. He is unwilling to say it, and it is not easy to explain, unless he says that Wanwan is a time traveler, which is absolutely impossible. This is the only thing they will not let a third person know.
"No wonder."
Everyone suddenly realized, and Yan Lang continued, "We just need to keep this to ourselves. Don't tell anyone else. After all, this is our trump card."
The so-called trump card is the card that has not been revealed. If too many people know it, the trump card will lose its meaning.
"Um."
If it wasn't for giving them an explanation, how could he have exposed himself?
Wei Chengyi sighed helplessly. If he had known this would happen, he would have taken his guards directly into the space when he assassinated the Khan of the Western Hu people that day, and Wanwan would have been here to support them, and so many things would not have happened later.
"Is it almost noon?"
Seeing that they were almost there, Shen Xiangwan spoke at the right time.
"Um."
Yan Lang nodded, and Shen Xiangwan turned and said, "Yuanyue, go call Chenghe and General Wang and the others, we are going to eat hot pot."
"good."
There was obvious joy in her voice, and Yuan Yue laughed when she saw this. She was really scared by the fact that Er Ye was unconscious and she was almost collapsed. At the same time, she was sincerely grateful that she pulled Er Ye back from the brink of life and death. Otherwise, she couldn't imagine what she would become.
"As for you, hurry back and freshen up. You're all turning into sloppy uncles."
Turning his gaze to Yuan Shu and the others, Shen Xiangwan pretended to be disgusted. They had really worked hard over the past month.
"yes."
Led by Yuan Shu, everyone clasped their fists and bowed in unison, and soon filed out. The tent, which was originally a bit crowded, became spacious again.
Although the military tent was large, it was impossible to accommodate one or two hundred of them for dinner at the same time. Shen Xiangwan thought about it and waved his hand to take out a bunch of tables specially used for hot pot. "The weather is nice today, let's eat outside. Qingying, find a few soldiers to move the tables outside."
"good."
Today is the birthday girl, so she has the final say. Qingying turned around and left the military tent.
"Can you drink?"
With a wave of his hand, Shen Xiangwan took out a few more decanters of wine.
"What kind of wine is this?"
Yan Lang did not go home for the New Year, so naturally he didn’t know what kind of wine she was holding, but before Shen Xiangwan could reply, he smiled helplessly and said, “Drinking is not allowed in the army. We should set an example and not drink.
There is no order without rules. No drinking in the army is a rule set by themselves, so they must take the lead in complying with it.
"Then I won't drink."
Hearing this, Pei Ji was about to put away the wine. Ji Shaohan smiled and said, "If they don't drink, I'll drink with you. Today is your birthday, how can we not drink?"
"Forget it, we'll drink slowly when we get back."
Looking back and forth at them, Shen Xiangwan put the wine into the space. As far as she knew, Uncle Yan was also a wine lover, and it would be too cruel to let him watch them drink.
Soon, Qingying called over dozens of soldiers and asked them to move the hot pot table out and place it outside the big tent. Then Shen Xiangwan took out the outdoor gas stove and placed it in the hole in the middle of the table one by one. Yan Lang and others followed her instructions and asked the cooks to bring enough bowls and chopsticks for them. When Wei Chenghe and others came back, Shen Xiangwan brought out the soup pot and plates of processed ingredients.
The ingredients prepared by Number One were extremely rich, with all the must-haves for hot pot, such as tripe and duck intestines. Although they were all frozen goods just taken out of the refrigerator, there was also a rich selection of caged beef, marbling beef, and coriander beef skewered with toothpicks. As for pig brains and the like, they were basically all collected by Shen Xiangwan when they slaughtered pigs before the New Year and frozen in the refrigerator, just for the purpose of eating hot pot.
In addition to those, there were also various kinds of meatballs, vegetables, and dry goods such as wide noodles and bean curd. There were thirty tables, and each table was filled to the brim.
"It smells so good, Wanwan, how do you eat this?"
After the spicy soup pot boiled, the overbearing and rich aroma spread. Yan Lang and others, who were not very fond of food, became curious, and Wei Chenghe even sat directly in front of the table.
“Eat it while it’s hot like this.”
Picking up the bowl of ingredients she had prepared, Shen Xiangwan sat down, picked up a piece of tripe and put it into the soup pot. After rinsing it seven or eight times, she put it into her own bowl, wrapped it in it, and put it into her mouth: "This is the taste. I haven't eaten it for a long time. Everyone, don't stand around. Prepare your bowls and sit down to eat."
The long-lost taste made Shen Xiangwan in a good mood. She invited them very enthusiastically. Everyone looked at each other, followed her previous steps to prepare the ingredients in the bowls, and sat down around the table one after another.
“Mmm, delicious!”
"You know what, eating this way really has a unique flavor."
"What is this? It's so crispy and tender, I don't think I've ever eaten it before!"
"Oh my god, Cheng Yi, that's mine!"
When they tasted the food, they couldn't stop eating. Everyone seemed to have forgotten that today was Shen Xiangwan's birthday. They just kept adding food to the pot. Shen Xiangwan, who was sitting with Wei Chengyi, couldn't help laughing. She didn't feel wronged at all for being forgotten. Instead, she felt very happy. Birthdays should be lively and fun like this.
