Chapter 95 Braised Chicken Feet and Bone Soup
Seeing Mu Jiu staring at the plate of braised chicken feet, Taoist Xuanzhi smiled and said:
"Auntie, these are hybrid broiler chickens that we raised in our backyard.
Because of its large size, the chicken's feet are also larger than usual.
Don’t worry, auntie, this is definitely a safe braised dish!
No, let me taste it first and show you!"
There were not many chicken feet on the plate, so Xuanzhi picked up the smallest one after he finished speaking.
When I picked it up, it was still filled with thick soup, and I stuffed the whole thing directly into my mouth.
But the sharp-eyed Mu Jiu discovered that in the entire plate, the only chicken foot eaten by Xuan Zhi seemed to be slightly normal.
Mu Jiu didn't say anything else. He pretended to be extremely hungry and asked Xuan Zhi to go out and close the door.
The next second, the voice of the fourth brother next door was heard:
"Little Taoist priest, what are you doing standing at the door of that lady? Are you trying to peek?"
Then came Xuanzhi's calm voice:
“How could that be, I just delivered something to a guest and was about to leave now.
"Guest, did you...change your orange card from the front yard and come here?"
Xuanzhi's voice suddenly became softer, as if he was speaking close to the ear of the fourth kid next door.
But because of the existence of the Shikigami Talisman, Mu Jiu could hear his words very clearly.
"We have small toys and umbrellas for sale in our temple. Do you want some?
It’s just that the price… is a bit high! But for you, it’s not a big amount.”
The fourth brother asked, "Oh? What are the prices?"
“An umbrella is made of 10 kilograms of rice, and you can choose any size.
After all, this is something that ensures personal safety. The girls are experienced, but big brother, we still have to be cautious if we have the conditions!
Small toys are much cheaper, one costs 5 kilograms of rice.
Of course you can rent them too. They are all carefully cleaned and guaranteed to be clean. One set contains 2 kilograms of rice, and you can rent a whole set with 10 kilograms of rice!
If you need it, I will send it to you immediately."
Mu Jiu listened... but didn't hear the fourth brother's answer for a long time.
Then there was a knock on my door...
Mu Jiu got up and opened the door, and was a little surprised to see the scene outside.
The young Taoist priest Xuanzhi was knocked to the ground by the fourth man with flowery arms with a punch and was unconscious at this moment.
"What... is going on?"
Mu Jiu asked in confusion. She was sure that she had not missed anything.
What happened? Is this what happened just because of a disagreement?
"Sister, he was standing outside your door eavesdropping, so I gave him a lesson so he won't do it again next time!"
Seeing that he was exhausted from carrying the little girl, Mu Jiu stepped aside to let him into the room and asked casually:
"Have you found out everything?"
The fourth brother put the little girl on the chair in front of Mu Jiu's desk. He carried the girl half upside down. She was not feeling well at the moment.
My forehead is a little purple from the congestion, and the most important thing is that I feel dizzy...
The extremely hungry girl looked up and saw the dinner sent by Xuanzhi on Mu Jiu's table, and her eyes lit up.
The pain in her memory and her rationality restrained her hand from reaching for the food.
She didn't dare move. The long time she spent in the cell in the front yard and being tortured had completely eradicated her rebellious nature.
All that is left is soulless cuteness and obedience.
She didn't dare say that she was hungry and wanted to eat, so she could only swallow her saliva dryly, but her eyes never left the food.
Ever since she was ambushed and imprisoned in that dark and gloomy place, she hasn't had a normal meal in a long time...
She was so regretful all the time about how she had made the mistake of entering the City God Temple to avoid danger.
The fourth brother was a thoughtful person. He also noticed the fresh food on Mu Jiu's table and said:
"Sister, am I disturbing your dinner? Why don't you eat first... I'll get someone over to report the situation later?"
Mu Jiu glanced at the food on the table and waved his hand, "You tell me first, what's going on over there."
The fourth brother had no choice but to speed up his speech and briefly tell his sister what happened in the basement in the front yard.
It only took five minutes.
Of course, the fourth brother also mentioned the girl sitting in front of him, which is why he brought her back.
As people with the same superpowers, it is inevitable that they will have a feeling of mutual understanding.
Superpowers are abilities that are different from ordinary people, which is something to be proud of for ordinary people.
According to the description of the little Taoist priest in the front yard, the original girl must have been such a bold and unrestrained person.
And that feeling of once having it, but no longer being able to gather the energy, how powerless and hopeless must it be...
After listening to the fourth brother's entire description, Mu Jiu turned around and looked at the girl.
She had heard these things in the Shikigami talisman a long time ago, and she gave him the talisman to carry with him because she was not worried that he would not tell the truth.
After all, we are just strangers whom we just met, so there is no question of trust.
But this young man is a good person. What he reported to her today was almost the same as what he heard from the Shikigami Talisman.
He even brought the girl back out of kindness and sent her here...
Mu Jiu noticed the girl's extreme desire for the food in front of her and thought of her experience.
Mu Jiu was somewhat moved.
"Eat something if you're hungry. I don't want any of it anyway."
The girl was obviously stunned by Mu Jiu's words. She didn't want such delicious food?
The girl hesitated for three seconds and looked at the fourth brother who brought her back.
"Sis has spoken, just eat. I hate having to say something twice."
After receiving a positive answer, the girl immediately picked up the white porcelain spoon on the table and began to stuff it into her mouth...
I felt like I was going to die after eating this meal.
Mu Jiu was telling the truth. She had never intended to accept the food Xuan Zhi sent.
She could guess what Xuanzhi was thinking with her toes.
Weren't those previous actions just staring at her and wishing she would die quickly?
What's more, today I heard with my own ears the little Taoist priest's words that he would capture her within half a month...
The people in this City God Temple really have no bottom line.
Now they even dare to send her this secret-made braised chicken feet and bone soup.
Do you really think she is a little girl who knows nothing and can't see that it is made of a child's hand and an adult's leg bones?
So she wouldn't touch a single grain of rice from the food in the temple.
What's more, the supplies in the space are enough for her to live for thousands of years, so she doesn't care about these things at all.
Apart from the chicken feet and bone soup, the rest of the meals were the same as the previous days and there was no problem.
After all, the young Taoist priest had tested the poison himself.
Thinking of this, Mu Jiu saw the little girl choking because she had stuffed too much rice. She was about to scoop up a ladle of bone soup and slowly swallow it...
Mu Jiu didn't think twice and just reached out and knocked the spoon away, scaring the little girl.
Because his right hand was broken, his left hand, which was already not very convenient, shook and the white porcelain spoon fell to the ground and shattered into pieces.
This really scared the girl.
She couldn't afford to compensate for breaking the guest's things. If the Taoist priest in the temple knew about it, she would probably be beaten again tomorrow.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry!"
The girl kept apologizing, not daring to mention that it was Mu Jiu who knocked her spoon away.
"This has nothing to do with you. Don't eat these two dishes." Mu Jiu pointed at the braised chicken feet and bone soup.
The fourth brother licked it as if he had discovered a new world, and said, "Sister, these are the two dishes you like, right?
Well, if you like it, we have a lot of it. We can send some to you later!
We have plenty of things like braised chicken feet and braised pork feet!"
"This is not a chicken foot, it's a baby hand." Mu Jiu said calmly.
The fourth one… “Huh?”
girl……
