Chapter 43 They have a problem!!!
Since leaving the capital, even though Mo Xiaohe had no shortage of money and no worries about food and clothing, his life was too easy and leisurely. So when he had nothing to do, he would take the initiative to go to the kitchen and learn how to cook from the chef.
At the beginning, he was in a mess, but as time went on, although his cooking skills were not particularly good, they were not bad either. He could still cook a few simple dishes.
In particular, this country has no concept of cooking by hand. The meals of the Marrow-sucking Country are all automatically generated by the magic power of the priests. Even the imperial palace, the center of power and nobility, is no exception.
The food made purely by magic power is just like the modern breakfast buns created by mechanical devices. It is perfect and exquisite. No matter the size, proportion, or even the texture, it is very consistent. There are no extra gaps. It is perfect and there is no flaw to be found.
But the only thing is that it lacks popularity, which is what people often say: it lacks the most essential soul in food.
Mo Xiaohe roughly described the appearance of the stove he needed and the flour he would need.
Hearing the request, the priest on the stage pondered for a moment. The next second, he waved his hand and a full set of kitchen tools appeared in the middle of the crowd.
Mo Xiaohe was also not vague. Under the curious gaze of everyone, he calmly began to pound the flour, added water, and continued to pound it, occasionally slapping the table.
The audience around him stared intently at his every move. This was a very common scene in the chaotic world, but they had never seen anything like it before:
It turns out that food can be created by humans themselves.
Due to the large number of people, Mo Xiaohe had to make a large amount of dough. Fortunately, he was a martial artist and had enough physical strength, so he didn't feel tired. He operated smoothly and occasionally used the dough in his hands like a dancer's sleeves, swinging it back and forth, which was very entertaining.
After a long time, Mo Xiaohe wiped the non-existent sweat from his forehead, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and the next second, he picked up the spatula and hit the stacked bowls with his sleeves.
With a series of "clang-clang-clang" sounds of bowls and pots falling to the ground, rows of hot longevity noodles with white smoke appeared in front of everyone.
"Everyone, please enjoy your meal."
Mo Xiaohe bowed and shouted to everyone.
Seeing that Mo Xiaohe had finished, the maids who had been waiting quietly on the side immediately set off, lined up in an orderly manner, picked up the longevity noodles, and placed them in front of the dignitaries one by one.
“Slurp, slurp—”
When the first mouthful of noodles entered their mouths, everyone's eyes lit up at once with the extremely elastic and tough texture, as well as the sweet and warm soup that entered their mouths along with the noodles. They were completely conquered by the longevity noodles made by Mo Xiaohe.
Their eating movements were graceful and dignified, but their hands were very fast and they would not stop until there was not even a residue left in the longevity noodles.
Seeing that everyone was enjoying the meal, Mo Xiaohe finally felt relieved and knew that he had passed this stage.
If he did something that was completely against the taste of these powerful people, it would be very dangerous. It wouldn't matter to him alone, but he was afraid that it would implicate Pang Ningchun and the others.
After thinking for a while, he quietly moved his gaze to the platform, observing the priest's expression, hoping to see a familiar shadow on his face.
The priest was completely unaware of Mo Xiaohe's thoughts. He did not pick up his chopsticks immediately, but just lowered his eyes slightly, staring quietly at the bowl of longevity noodles in front of him, without saying a word.
When the longevity noodles were placed in front of him, a few fragments of memories suddenly emerged in his mind.
It was a childhood memory. He was sitting at a round table. On the table was a dazzling array of exquisite dishes. Only a large bowl of longevity noodles was placed in the middle, which was out of tune with the other dishes and was very conspicuous.
Around him was a group of people. His facial features could not be seen clearly, only their grinning mouths, smiling and saying several words to him. He could not hear the words clearly, but this childhood scene made him feel very warm and at ease. He felt that he could relax and rely on them.
The priest reached out, picked up the chopsticks beside him, picked up the noodles and put them into his mouth.
Although it was his first time tasting this bowl of longevity noodles, it inexplicably gave him an extremely strong sense of familiarity, as if he had eaten this bowl of longevity noodles several times.
"How does it feel?"
The child king had more self-control than the others. He only ate a few bites, glanced at Mo Xiaohe with approval, then looked at the priest sitting next to him and asked.
The priest nodded slightly, looked at the child king, and commented, "Not bad."
The priest's evaluation showed that he was really satisfied with the bowl of longevity noodles. The Child King made a prompt decision and decided to give Mo Xiaohe and his group a generous reward.
——
The people following the priest sat at a table next to Xu Ren'er.
When they came near Xu Ren'er, Xu Ren'er felt that the smell on them was somewhat familiar, but for a moment, she was a little unable to react why this smell made her feel familiar.
Could it be someone I met in my previous life? Xu Ren'er thought to himself.
When the longevity noodles were served, the people next to them did not pick up their chopsticks. The masks on their faces remained motionless, and Xu Ren'er could only observe their gazes through the gaps in the masks.
Then, Xu Ren'er discovered that the eyes of this group of people were always on them. That look was not curiosity about new things, but more like - disbelief!
What's so unbelievable? Hadn't they been informed before coming? They were a group of people from another country.
unless......
Xu Ren'er suddenly had an idea: Unless the people opposite know their true origins.
The tip of her nose twitched slightly, and Xu Ren'er suddenly remembered that when they were looking for Mo Youli in Juzi Country, they tracked him all the way to the last search location, where they smelled the scent of Mo Youli and other strangers. At that time, she relied on the change in the smell to confirm that Mo Youli had fought with several other strangers.
And now, she suddenly recalled that the smell of these people was exactly the same as the smell of the strangers in the search location at that time.
Thinking of this, Xu Ren'er suddenly shouted in his heart that something was wrong.
These people are the ones who went to Juzi Country in the mixed world and took Mo Youli away!
They had been lurking in the dark and observing Mo Youli, and Mo Youli, who was in contact with Xu Ren'er and others most of the time, would inevitably notice them.
In other words, these people not only knew their origins clearly, but also guessed their purpose of coming to the Marrow-sucking Country!
Thinking of this, Xu Ren'er did not hesitate at all. While everyone's attention was on Mo Xiaohe, she left her seat, walked past Tang Beiju and Tang Qiuyue, came to Yu Hui's feet, and tugged at his trouser legs with her dog paws.
Yu Hui: "What's wrong? Ren'er."
Xu Ren'er pointed one of his dog paws at the table next to him, and made a downward chopping shape with the other paw, suggesting that Yu Hui should knock out everyone at the table next to him without anyone noticing during this banquet.
In fact, any one of them could easily knock them out.
According to the description of the stall owner from Juzi Country, these people worked together to deal with Mo Youli, but they were unable to defeat Mo Youli. Later, they relied on blowing a mysterious whistle to put Mo Youli into a coma. This shows that the strength of these people is not very strong.
However, if one wants to knock them out quickly and without anyone noticing, without making any noise, and allow them to remain in a normal state without being noticed, perhaps only Yu Hui, whose strength far exceeds that of everyone present, can do it.
But, act fast!
Xu Ren'er always paid attention to the eyes of the people at the opposite table. When she noticed that their eyes seemed to become firm, she knew that they wanted to reveal their identities.
"Hurry!" Xu Ren'er urged.
Yu Hui didn't ask any more questions. Xu Ren'er must have her reasons for asking him to do this. He should take action immediately and ask clearly later!
While Xu Ren'er was observing Shen Dong and his group at the table, Shen Dong, Shen Nan, Shen Xi and Shen Bei were also keeping an eye on them.
Although these four people have different personalities, their overall thinking is not very different. They understand each other's thoughts very clearly and are a group of four with a very good understanding.
So, they discovered Xu Ren'er and the others at the same time, and their brains were in a daze.
At the same time, they wanted to stand up and describe their thoughts to the native people of the Marrow-sucking Country.
Shenbei: "He..."
Shennan: "They..."
Kansai: “They asked…”
After receiving Xu Ren'er's request, Yu Hui immediately set off, using his lightness skills to come directly to the four people at a speed invisible to ordinary people, and knocked them out one by one.
He was very fast. Before Shenbei, Shennan and Shenxi could say a few words, he had taken care of them. He also helped them to put their heads down in contemplation, and forced his eyelids open a long gap to ensure that no one would notice anything unusual.
However, no matter how confident you are, there is always the possibility of unexpected situations.
As luck would have it, we happened to be at the tables in front of this group of people. We were enjoying our noodles so much that we finished them quickly.
Seeing this, several maids hurried forward to help them clean up the used dishes and wanted to put them back into the special washing room in the palace.
And the path they took just happened to coincide with the path Yu Hui took.
Even though Yu Hui quickly avoided them, he was still delayed by the obstruction of these maids. He dealt with Shenbei, Shennan and Shenxi, leaving only Shendong, and he was too late.
Shen Dong stood up straight and shouted to everyone at the banquet, pointing at Xu Ren'er and the others:
“They have a problem!!!”
The effect of shouting these five words was very good. All of a sudden, everyone's attention was immediately focused on the two tables of Xu Ren'er and Shen Dong.
Yu Hui could only curse in his heart and then quickly returned to his seat.
Throughout the whole process, no one noticed Yu Hui's movements.
