It can be said that the materials used this time were the simplest Lu Wu had ever used in all the time he had been running his stall.
With granulated sugar, natural coloring, and bamboo skewers, everything is ready.
Stuck with no customers, Lu Wu had no desire to start work.
Lying on the beach, with her head resting on Mimi's belly and listening to the sound of the waves, Lu Wu felt drowsy.
...
A shooting star streaked across the sky above the first isolated island not far from Luwu, and a figure appeared on the island.
He was a young man.
"Phew, nobody's here."
After discovering that there were no other human signs here, the man muttered to himself.
"This assessment is so strict! They don't even allow the use of the One-World Pass. Are they afraid of cheating?"
"How are we supposed to find that rainbow stone in such a big place? Does anyone know if it's on land or underwater?"
"No, I have to be careful."
His name is Ye Chi, and he is a disciple of the Rainbow Gate in this generation. He is currently undergoing the assessment for new disciples.
There were hundreds of other disciples like him who randomly landed in this sea area, and the assessment had already begun.
Passing the test is simple; just find the Rainbow Stone.
Legend has it that the Rainbow Gate was founded on the Rainbow Stone, but this thing is spiritual and very difficult to find, it depends entirely on luck.
Besides this method, those who persist for seven days without being eliminated are also considered to have passed the assessment.
Yes, there is competition among the disciples of this sect in this assessment.
As for Ye Chi, his aptitude was rather mediocre, barely meeting the entry-level standard. Under the spotlight of those geniuses and prodigies, his development was just average.
Ye Chi, whose luck wasn't great, decided to try and survive the next seven days.
If you can't beat them, can't you at least avoid them?
Be a cautious yet courageous person, and you will carve out your own path.
"This place is nice."
Looking around the island, Ye Chi decided to dig a hole on this isolated island and hide there.
Let's get right to it.
By the time he had prepared his hiding place, it was already very late.
Stretching and gazing casually at the sea, Ye Chi suddenly noticed sparks flickering in the distance.
Is anyone there?
Ye Chi's back tightened.
Then someone came looking for us. Wait, the firelight seems to have stayed in one spot and hasn't moved. He probably hasn't been discovered yet.
But isn't this person afraid of revealing their location?
It's all about skill and daring.
Ye Chi guessed, without any intention of investigating further.
As the saying goes, curiosity killed the cat; he wanted to live.
The "expert" Lu Wu was pouring sugar into the machine. The time had come, and even if there were no customers, Lu Wu had to get up and start working.
The glass fire is now online; the machine has already been preheated, and the sugar is melting.
The white sugar strands are flung out by centrifugal force.
Lu Wu quickly intercepted it with a bamboo skewer and then began to roll it up.
The only valuable step in the process is rolling the sugar threads, which are blown around so much that they can easily drift away and clump together.
It takes some effort to wind it into shape.
With skillful wrist movements, Lu Wu twisted and turned the bamboo skewer, quickly gathering the sugar strands together, and a white ball gradually took shape in Lu Wu's hand.
The dumplings still retained the warmth of the flames, and their basin-sized shape made them look soft and fluffy.
Through the moonlight, sparse gaps can be seen.
The air was filled with the sweet aroma of sugar, like the melting sunshine in winter.
Take a breath, and the subtle aroma of caramel fills your nostrils, warm and clean.
The night breeze brushed against Lu Wu's hair, scattering the drifting sugar threads in the air, much like willow catkins rising in the wind—beautiful and dreamlike.
Lu Wu tore off a small piece, tasted it, and squinted her eyes in enjoyment.
Freshly baked and piping hot, it melts in your mouth like a cloud, and what surprised Lu Wu the most was its sweetness.
It's not cloying at all; instead, it transforms into countless delicate threads that tantalize the taste buds, making her want to keep savoring it.
The sugar strands are delicate, and despite their large size, they are actually very light when held in the hand.
It has a slightly stringy texture, and before you can even trace the shape of the sugar strands in your mouth, they melt away at the temperature of your oral cavity, leaving only a sweet aftertaste.
Yes, it's like a dream come true.
Lu Wu gave herself a score of ten.
"Woof woof!"
It smells so good, the dog wants some.
Dog Aotian wagged its tail and circled around Lu Wu, its tongue lolling out and drooling like a waterfall, clearly very hungry.
After Mimi transforms into a cat, her personality becomes as proud and aloof as a cat's.
He didn't say anything, just lay in Lu Wu's arms, constantly brushing his tail against Lu Wu's wrist as if he wanted to say something but couldn't, it was ticklish.
A pair of cat-like eyes were fixed vertically upwards and never moved away.
The fire had already stopped on Lu Wu's head.
And coincidentally, the thing that Lu Wu was holding was raised so high that Huo Huo could touch it by simply bending down.
Faced with delicious food, the bird could not resist the temptation.
"Chirp!"
The birds will have a taste.
Huo Huo thought for a moment, then lowered its head and used its beak to pick up a small piece.
The sweet aroma of sugar captivated the birds.
Unfortunately, the amount she took was too small; it melted in her mouth, leaving Huo Huo feeling empty inside.
The bird wanted more food, so it ate a little more.
I peck.
This time, Huo Huo was a bit bolder and snatched away a larger amount.
She glanced down at Lu Wu and, finding that her master hadn't noticed her stealing food, happily raised her tail feathers.
It's delicious, so sweet.
This sweetness instantly seeped into her heart, bringing back some memories for Huo Huo, but they vanished in an instant.
Ah, that was her first love bird from her past life.
That's not enough; the birds still need to eat.
Having gone undetected in both operations, Huo Huo grew even bolder.
She stood on Lu Wu's head, her claws moving gently, but her head stretched out long. Seizing the opportunity, she attacked again, this time snatching a piece the size of a fist.
