Ao Cheng led Li Nianfan to the main hall and said quickly, "Mr. Li, please take a seat."

The materials of the tables and chairs in the main hall were also extremely extraordinary. They were all carved from special wood and stones in the ocean, and even flashed with sparkling light.

As the saying goes, live by the mountain, eat by the mountain; live by the sea, eat by the sea. Li Nianfan really saw it this time.

There are not many other things in the sea, but there are many shiny things, and there are also many seafood.

Everyone sat down, and Li Nianfan picked up the crystal glass on the table and held it carefully.

The crystal glass was very small and warm to the touch. It was filled with transparent wine, which was slightly rippling and had a hint of wine.

Li Nianfan first sniffed it lightly, and then drank it all.

He smacked his lips and found that the wine was not strong, but had a hint of sweetness. It was considered a good kind of wine.

Ao Cheng said, "Mr. Li, my wine is far inferior to yours, please don't dislike it."

"Mr. Ao, you are too polite. This wine is a rare and fine wine." Li Nianfan smiled. He knew the difference between the two, but he couldn't explain it, let alone take out his own wine at this time.

"Pah!"

Ao Cheng clapped his hands lightly.

Immediately, many clam spirits and fish rushed in, gathered in an open space in front of the hall, and began to perform vigorously.

The bodies of sirens are actually like water snakes. They twist very smoothly in the water, and their bodies seem to sway gently like water.

The musical instruments are even simpler. There are several conch spirits blowing conch horns on the side, which is also pleasant to the ears.

Li Nianfan was watching the performance, and he couldn't help but feel a little touched. He had just watched the performance of the female ghost not long ago, and this time he was watching the performance of the sea monster again, which was quite interesting.

In fact, the female ghost was a human being after all, so there was some popularity in the performance, but the sea monster was different, and gave Li Nianfan a taste of another exotic style.

The performance of the sea creatures was very rich. After the dance of the clam spirit, there were dolphins and sharks playing, and then there was the fountain activity of the blue whale.

Li Nianfan secretly said in his heart that this sea trip was worth it.

Li Nianfan asked curiously, "Mr. Ao, is your carp spirit family so powerful in the ocean?"

"Uh..."

Ao Cheng was stunned for a moment, his mind raced, and he quickly organized his words and said, "Mr. Li, actually... it's mainly because of our ancestors, the so-called carp leaping through the dragon gate. Our ancestors gave birth to real dragons."

"I see." Li Nianfan could understand it. It was just like the immortal cultivators. The difference between having an ancestor who was an immortal and not having an immortal was not at the same level.

It was no wonder that the carp spirit had a common origin with the dragon.

Li Nianfan raised his wine glass and said with a smile, "Then I wish Mr. Ao to become a dragon soon."

This sentence sounded different to Ao Cheng, and he was extremely excited. The master was willing to change the definition for us and recognize our identity as dragons!

Although he was originally a dragon, that was their own feeling, and the master had to recognize it.

Now that the master has recognized his identity as a dragon, he inexplicably feels a sense of achievement in his heart. It's like a child getting the recognition of his parents. If others say you are excellent, you just listen, but only if your parents say you are excellent, you are really excellent.

It must be that my recent performance has satisfied the master.

Ao Cheng was so moved that he even wanted to cry. He said solemnly, "Don't worry, Master Li. I will work hard to become a dragon as soon as possible!"

At this time, a clam spirit came in and said, "Your Majesty, the crabs seem to be steamed."

Ao Cheng hurriedly said, "Bring them up quickly and give Master Li and the others one portion first."

Not long after, a group of sea clan women came in. They wore thin silk pink ribbons, had their hair in buns, and had scales on their bodies. The colors of the scales were different, obviously different species.

Each of them was holding a small plate with a red crab on it. Some of them were still waving their claws and fell into silence.

Li Nianfan said, "I forgot to mention that when steaming crabs, you need to tie them up so that the meat is compact and tastes better."

Ao Cheng frowned and said quickly, "Mr. Li, I'm sorry. The servants don't know these things. I'll let them do it again."

"Don't bother. It's just a little trick. Pay attention to it in the future." Li Nianfan waved his hands casually and then focused his attention on the crab.

The first feeling is plumpness!

Look at the big and powerful claws, the broad back, and the lush and sharp hair. In the previous life, it was definitely the best among the big crabs!

Pick it up, it's bigger than a palm.

However, as Li Nianfan said, because there was no rope to tie the crab, the shell had already bulged a little, and the meat quality was affected. For Li Nianfan, who pursued perfection, this was a little imperfect.

But it didn't hurt.

Li Nianfan took out the seasoning he brought with him, which was not complicated, just vinegar and ginger, and smiled at everyone, saying, "Crabs and vinegar are a better match."

Ao Cheng replied, "I... I've learned my lesson."

Everyone looked at the crab and didn't know how to eat it. They could only watch how Li Nianfan ate it, and then imitate him.

Fortunately, everyone was not stupid, and they could learn it after watching it for a while.

"Crack, crack!"

The sound of peeling the shell began to come one after another.

At this time, everyone was surprised to find that under the crab's tough appearance, there was actually so much white tender meat hidden. Moreover, it was just steamed without any seasoning, but it could actually emit waves of fragrance, which was beyond everyone's expectations.

Ao Cheng followed Li Nianfan's example and dipped the crab leg in vinegar, then picked up a crab leg and slowly put it into his mouth.

First, the sour taste of vinegar stimulated the taste buds, and then, the tender crab meat seemed to bounce in the mouth, and the aroma of the crab meat itself burst out instantly, engulfing everything. There was not much crab meat, but the aroma was extremely overbearing, almost invading all the senses of the person.

Soft and powerful, fresh but not greasy, long-lasting flavor, endless aftertaste!

How can one word "fragrant" describe it.

"Delicious!"

Ao Cheng stared at the crab legs in his hand with his eyes wide open, revealing an unbelievable look.

"I didn't expect that there was such a delicious food right under my nose?!" He took a deep breath of cool air, and suddenly felt that he had lived in vain for so many years, and he failed so badly.

Li Nianfan smiled and said, "That's not all. If you peel off the crab shell, the crab paste in the male crab and the crab roe in the female crab are the most delicious."

"This thing is so delicious!" Ao Yun was also stunned, feeling that his worldview had been overturned. He

even suddenly felt a little sad, and tears blurred his eyes.

Why, why do you want me to taste such a delicacy before I die?

This is both a kind of happiness and a torture. I missed countless such delicacies when I was alive, and I realized before I died that I missed more than a billion! The most painful thing in the world is this.

There was only one thought in his mind, "Eat, I must eat enough before I die!"

Little Daji completely opened a crab leg and handed the whole crab leg meat to Li Nianfan's mouth, saying softly: "Master, I'll peel it for you."

Li Nianfan opened his mouth and ate it, and said with satisfaction: "Well, it's delicious, little Daji is so good."

Little Daji smiled and said: "Hehe, thank you Master, I'll peel another one for you."

"Brother, look at me." Long Er pinched a magic spell in his hand like offering a treasure, with ripples, and then easily separated the shell meat of the whole crab. The white crab meat made Li Nianfan jealous.

Divine skill, it is definitely a magical skill for eating crabs!

He cried out in his heart, being able to eat crab meat in big mouthfuls is something that many people dream of.

However, Long Er obviously had no intention of sharing with him. He opened his little mouth and immediately took the whole crab meat into his mouth. His cheeks were puffed up, and he looked at Li Nianfan, as if waiting for a compliment.

Li Nianfan looked at the crab in his hand, and it suddenly didn't smell good.

But he said, "In fact, the reason why crab meat is delicious is related to the process of peeling the shell. If you don't open the shell bit by bit with your hands, the crab meat you eat will be soulless."

After saying that, he seemed to be concentrating on peeling the crab shell in his hand.

Ao Cheng and others who were about to use their magic power to peel the crab shells suddenly stopped their actions silently, followed Li Nianfan's footsteps, calmed down, and peeled the shells bit by bit.

Peeling crab shells is obviously an extremely boring task, but soon, everyone found that when peeling the shells, they could not help but become focused, and even their hearts gradually calmed down.

There were only two very simple thoughts in their minds, one was to peel the shells, and the other was to eat it.

As their abilities grew, they gradually became impetuous, because many things could be done easily with magic power, resulting in their lack of concentration. They did too many tricks, and naturally there was a large lack of state of mind.

However, at this moment, they suddenly found themselves again, with a sense of peace of mind returning to the harbor.

This is not peeling off the shell, this is clearly refining the mind!

A master is a master, such a state of mind is simply embarrassing, no wonder he can do it, obviously with unparalleled strength, and can still completely integrate into the role of a mortal.

If it were us, we would have long forgotten the height of the sky and the depth of the earth, and would be arrogant to the extreme. How could we be at ease to be a mortal.

From the masters, even if we only understand a little skill, it is enough to benefit us for the rest of our lives!

Everyone kept shouting in their hearts that they had learned it.

The marine performance on the other side continued.

What surprised Li Nianfan was that the people who came on stage this time were actually seafood.

There were a lot of lobsters, king crabs, squids, salmon, etc. They were not dancing, but swimming happily, as if they were trying their best to show themselves off.

"Mr. Li, this is a seafood gathering, a program specially prepared for you."

Ao Cheng smiled and continued, "They are all elites among seafood, and the meat is top-notch. If you like any of them, just tell me and take them home to make a dish. If you like them, you can take them all away."

"Mr. Ao is really thoughtful."

"Oh, by the way, a delicacy like the big crab must not be buried!" Ao Cheng suddenly thought of something and said to his men, "Come here, quickly find the big crab king and ask him to pick the fat and strong big crabs. Also, list the big crabs as a delicacy in my carp palace in the future, remember to cultivate them well."

Then the topic of the crowd changed naturally, and they began to comment on the seafood that were performing, discussing which part of their meat was more delicious.

"Cough cough cough!"

At this time, Ao Yun coughed again, and this time he couldn't stop coughing, and a lot of blood flowed out of his mouth.

He managed to say, "Sorry, sorry, sorry."

Li Nianfan noticed that the blood Ao Yun coughed up had turned black, and the damage to his internal organs was extremely serious. He couldn't help but say, "Old Ao, I'm afraid your brother's condition is not optimistic."

Ao Cheng sighed and shook his head, "Mr. Li, to be honest, my brother has been poisoned. Now I'm afraid it's his last days."

Is there nothing they can do?

Ao Cheng and his brother are quite optimistic, and they are actually waiting to die calmly.

Li Nianfan stared at Ao Yun for a while, but did not find any signs of poisoning. He said in surprise, "Do you mind if I take your pulse?"

Ao Cheng immediately said excitedly, "No, no, Mr. Li, just take your pulse!"

He was naturally full of anticipation, and his eyes were full of eagerness.

After a moment, Li Nianfan withdrew his hand, frowning. As expected, he could not tell anything. Ao Yun's pulse was just weak.

Li Nianfan asked curiously, "What kind of poison did he get?"

Ao Cheng said, "It's a kind of demon insect that likes to devour blood, flesh, and magic power. Once it enters the body, it will be like a maggot on the tarsal bone. It will never be full and will not stop until it devours a person completely."

"There are actually such insects." Li Nianfan was a little surprised. This was beyond the scope of medical skills, and he was afraid that he could not do anything.

But this was normal. After all, even the gods were helpless.

Li Nianfan asked, "Is there no way to force the bug out?"

"It's impossible. The bug attaches itself to the flesh and blood, and because the blood and magic power between the heart and dantian are the most delicious, it will stay there. If you force it out or attack, you will be the first to suffer."

Ao Cheng paused and said, "As the bug feeds, you will become weaker and weaker, and your recovery ability will be worse than before. Not only will your injuries not heal, but they will get worse and worse, until you finally die in pain."

This is similar to a certain virus in the previous life, which sucks people's essence, making their immunity worse and worse, and eventually they die of weakness.

Although Ao Yun's injuries were serious, if he hadn't been poisoned, the injuries would have healed in no time. However, it was precisely because of the poison that the injuries not only did not heal, but became more and more serious. In addition, the insect was still devouring his blood and magic power. It was really despairing to be in such a situation.

Seeing Li Nianfan silent, Ao Cheng couldn't help but feel bitter.

He naturally didn't doubt the master's ability, he could only say that the master didn't intend to take action.

This was not surprising, and there was nothing to complain about.

Ao Yun's eyes dimmed slightly, and he laughed nonchalantly: "Hahaha, I have been ready to die since the moment I was poisoned. I can still hold on for a while. I can eat such delicious crabs before I die. I will be satisfied if I die."

The insects possessed... like to devour flesh and blood and magic power.

Li Nianfan suddenly had a flash of inspiration, pondered for a moment, and suddenly said: "Actually... it's not that there is no way, but I don't know if this method will work."
