Shi Tian was licking the bottom of the pot, holding the pot's ears with both hands and putting his head in it.
Hearing Can Baqian's shout, he pulled his head out of the pot and saw the big lobster crawling in front of him. He bared his teeth and let out a threatening growl.
The big lobster immediately crawled on the spot and dared not move.
Zi Gu looked at the seafood with disdain, "Chen Yuan, you are too insincere, aren't you? You only brought some seafood with shells. Can they be eaten? Look how sensible Shi Tian is. He brought a leopard." She pointed her chin at the leopard not far away.
Xue Huan's eyes lit up as she looked at the huge seafood. "Sister Zi Gu, you can eat them! They're so delicious! I'll make you a seafood feast later!"
When Zi Gu heard this, she immediately had no objection. She had great confidence in Xiaoxian's cooking skills. If she said it was delicious, then it must be right!
The monk said nothing after he came in. He sat cross-legged quietly on the side, twirling the Buddhist beads in his hand. After the few people finished talking, he took out a green lotus petal without saying a word and handed it to Xue Huan.
Zi Gu introduced her, "The monk's name is Wu Huan. He's a quiet, withdrawn person. He rarely speaks and doesn't like interacting with people. He has a lotus pond behind the village. The lotus roots he grows are truly exceptional, and the lotus seeds are fresh and delicious, but he usually doesn't let us pick them. This time, he's willing to give you a petal of the green lotus. It's a great gift, so please accept it, little fairy."
As soon as Zi Gu finished speaking, Wu Huan took out a basket full of lotus roots from the soul card. Each root was as white as jade, without any earthy smell. Instead, it exuded a fresh fragrance. You could eat them raw just by looking at them.
These lotus roots are the ingredients brought by Wuhuan.
After receiving the gifts from the bosses, Xue Huan had no way to repay them, so she could only use all her skills to cook a big meal to satisfy them.
The hot pot base would not be ready in a short time, so Xue Huan used half of the mutton meat to grill skewers. Zi Gu and others helped her by sharpening skewers and threading the meat on skewers.
These few people are big shots who can shake the entire Soul Realm with just a stomp of their feet, but here, they are just seniors who welcome newbies. Even if they are ordered to do work by Xue Huan, they are happy to do it.
Xue Huan only needs to be responsible for the cooking part, and the rest is taken care of by Zi Gu and the others.
Grilled lamb skewers, grilled prawns, grilled crabs, paired with various seasonings prepared by Xue Huan, are so delicious that you'll almost be blown away.
The quantity is just too small.
Several big guys competed with each other, staging a series of fierce battles.
Only Wuhuan was still sitting in the corner, with his eyes closed, quietly twisting the Buddhist beads in his hand, like a cold and silent jade Buddha statue.
The painting style is obviously different from others.
But since the boss is here, he must be willing to join in the fun. Maybe he is not very good at communication so he sits alone in the corner.
Xue Huan grilled some mushroom and lotus root slices and handed them to him. "Try them, they're all vegetarian."
Wuhuan opened his eyes, nodded slightly at her, picked up a string of mushrooms, took a bite, and then his brows frowned and his face turned red.
Xue Huan hurriedly asked, "What's wrong? Is it not to your taste?"
Wu Huan opened his mouth and stuck out his tongue, "Spicy."
Xue Huan really didn't expect that the monk who was so cold and dignified the moment before would actually stick out his tongue the next moment. To be honest, it was a bit cute.
She hurriedly brought a glass of hand-squeezed red fruit juice and said, "Here, drink this."
Wuhuan took it, tilted his head back and poured it directly into his mouth, drinking it quickly.
"Sorry, I'll make it lighter next time."
Wuhuan shook his head to show that he didn't care.
Half a head of mutton plus hundreds of kilograms of seafood may seem like a lot, but all the big guys present are big eaters, and it is not enough for them at all.
Although these meats and vegetables have the taste of food, their essence is actually soul power. Therefore, after eating them, they will be transformed into soul power and refined and absorbed, and will not bring much sense of fullness.
The upper limit of this absorption is linked to the soul power level. The higher the level, the more soul power can be absorbed.
Take Zi Gu for example, she herself is like a lake, her soul power is the water in the lake, and the food she eats is also water. With the size of a lake, pouring a few basins of water into it will not change the water level at all.
But Xue Huan was different. Her level was too low, so her appetite was small. After eating a little, she couldn't eat anymore. If she forced herself to eat more, it would cause soul power indigestion and might even burst her.
The soul body will not feel tired in the soul world, because the soul power is everywhere here. The soul power is absorbed in every breath, which is equivalent to practicing and resting.
Otherwise, Xue Huan would really be exhausted after working for several hours.
After finishing the barbecue, the hot pot soup base was also cooked. Xue Huan divided it into two pots. She added the fried spicy seasonings into one pot to make it a spicy hot pot base, and added red fruit and mushrooms to the other pot to make a light and healthy three-fresh hot pot base.
The remaining half of the mutton had already been sliced and was ready to be put into the pot.
Half a sheep was obviously not enough for the big guys to eat, so while she was preparing the soup base, they quickly ran out again and each brought back a huge prey.
These prey are all tender and juicy.
Although the big guys seldom go out, they often stay at home and "surf the Internet". The content in the Soul Card forum is varied, and there is also a special food channel, which ranks the ingredients according to their deliciousness level. The higher the level of the soul beast, the better the taste, and the higher the ranking.
The chicken-like soul beasts that Zi Gu had hunted before, and the rams brought by Shi Tian, all had a place on the list, and some even ranked quite high.
In the past, they were tempted by those food posts, but it was useless because no one in their entire village had any talent for cooking.
As for why they didn't capture someone to cook for them...it's not that they haven't done that before, but the people they captured never stayed in Xianyu Village for long. I don't know if it was because they couldn't adapt to the climate or couldn't withstand the pressure from the big guys.
In the end, the bosses stopped arresting people.
It has been more than ten years since they last caught the chef.
I haven't tasted meat in more than ten years!
Now, the village has new members who are excellent cooks. The key is that they are family members, so they can cook all kinds of delicious food for them without any coercion or inducement. The big guys in Xianyu Village are so happy.
The meat is delicious enough, I wonder how delicious the hot pot that Xiaoxian mentioned will be?
Under strong expectations, the bosses' laziness was temporarily cured, and they exerted their full strength, bringing back several precious ingredients on the food list in one go.
There was a giant, snow-white egg the size of a basketball with golden patterns, a three-legged fish with sweet, boneless flesh, and a red-scaled beast with firm, chewy flesh...
Skin and gut the meat, clean it with a cleaning spell, and slice the meat into paper-thin slices.
Zi Gu and the others were already very proficient in this operation, and they could deal with a soul beast in less than ten minutes.
