Chapter 54 Meow meow meow
Live broadcast room of all worlds.
While the audience in other live broadcast rooms were still feeling sad, distressed, and heartbroken, frequently recalling Yu Ming's tragic experience in the original world line, and recalling his days in the abyss after his glands were injured and differentiated into an Omega.
The audience in Jian Yunlan's live broadcast room has reached the next level.
【……@inverted hotpot brother, prepare your old hotpot (.】
[Boss Jian said, I will only use this stall-setting power once, so you better watch out! 】
[Why do all the diners at Boss Jian's stall look so tall and strong? Wang Dajian and Duan Qiongzhi have such muscular bodies...even the square dancing aunties look so powerful. What's going on?]
[Diners: Are you the thugs who disturbed Mr. Jian’s stall? (Smiles) It's over in seconds. Boss Jian, please continue.)
[I feel this wave is stable]
The upside-down hotpot brother looked at Jian Yunlan's live broadcast room, raised his head silently, and took a big sip of the old hotpot.
Although Yu Ming was pushed aside by the diners and looked a little confused and frustrated, but...
Yu Ming at this moment was much better than the Yu Ming in other live broadcast rooms, who was supporting his weak body and overdrawing his physical strength to fight against the knife-wielding thugs.
Looking at this scene, Hotpot Brother is very happy!
In Hotpot Brother’s live broadcast room, the barrage of comments was also shocked. He took a big sip of the dark red hot pot. Someone asked:
[Does Hotpot Brother also think that Boss Jian is safe? 】
"Hiss..." Hotpot Brother wiped his mouth and frowned at the screen, "It's hard to say, it's not that simple."
If the difficulty of this plot is really so low, it wouldn't have been unsolved for so many years, and even be hailed as a plot-killer...
These thugs have a backup plan.
…
There is a Malatang stall at the entrance of Hetang Community.
The diners pushed the thin-armed and thin-legged Yu Ming aside. They smiled and flexed their wrists and ankles, and crowded around Pao Hui and the others:
"Let's take a good look at what this person who dared to come and overthrow Boss Jian looks like."
"Hey, hey, don't run. Uncles and aunts are all very kind people. Why are you running~"
"Come on, let's have a fight, dozens of us."
The hooligans retreated step by step with pale faces, frightened to death.
And Yu Ming who was pushed aside: “……???”
He was a little depressed.
Once upon a time, Yu Ming thought he was the strongest and the protector of this area.
Now it seems that he is still a frog in the well. He is too weak. Compared with the truly powerful, he still has a long way to go...
Looking at the diners' strong and firm muscles, Yu Ming seemed to realize something and showed a thoughtful expression.
In order to deter the thugs, the crowd kept pushing back.
Although Yu Ming had been exercising, he was no match for the diners' strength, so he was pushed outwards, further and further forwards, until...
Yu Ming, who looked confused and depressed, came face to face with Jian Yunlan, who was concentrating on eating spicy hot pot.
Yu Ming: “……?”
In front of me is a hot spicy hot pot stall.
Behind the Malatang stall stood a figure that looked extremely familiar to him.
On the extended small table, there was a dazzling array of ingredients skewered on bamboo skewers, including fresh fat beef, tripe, yellow throat, meatballs, potatoes, fried tofu, enoki mushrooms... Under the warm yellow light, the whole stall looked very cozy.
Porcelain plates of various colors are filled with seasonings, chili powder, sesame paste, sesame oil, onions, ginger and garlic. In addition, there were two large soup pots filled with beef bone and red oil soup, bubbling violently. The steaming white mist and hot air blew towards us, bringing with it an extremely rich aroma.
The eyes under Yu Ming's thick eyelashes changed from confused and dull to gradually glowing with a bright golden light.
...this familiar scent!
The outside world is bustling with noise and bustle, but this spicy hot pot stall is like an isolated utopia.
Here, it is enough to just quietly enjoy the warmth and healing brought by the food under the protection of the Malatang boss.
Looking at Yu Ming, Jian Yunlan smiled enthusiastically, her eyes bright: "Welcome, would you like some spicy hot pot?"
The other side.
A few thugs were surrounded by a huge crowd of diners. Even if they took out their knives tremblingly, they seemed to have no deterrent power.
The gangsters trembled:
"Brother, what should we do? Should we run away?" "What do you mean by running? That's called retreating while the tide is rising!" "Yes, yes, retreat while the tide is rising. We'll come back next time..."
Although surrounded, the leader Pao Hui managed to remain calm.
As the leader of the gang, he can't panic!
Pao Hui thought hard.
Soon, he thought of a plan.
Pao Hui lowered his voice and whispered to the little Camillas:
"They are Betas, and we are all Alphas. Wait... we will suddenly release the Alpha pheromone pressure together, and then I will rush over and grab that little brat Chen Shuoshuo as a hostage. Do you understand?"
The thugs looked at each other, and although there was still fear in their eyes, they all nodded.
This plan seems to be quite reliable.
No matter how strong it is physically, Beta cannot suppress Alpa pheromones and will be unable to move the moment the pheromones are released. Even though they are all Alpah, their pheromones can be strong or weak, depending on the strength of the Alpah's own obsession and abilities.
For example, Pao Hui's copper rust-scented pheromone is a very strong pheromone. Because he dropped out of school early and has been struggling in society for many years, Pao Hui has a deep obsession with money, which makes his pheromone even more powerful.
In this society, Alphas are very rare, accounting for only about 30% of the population. The pheromones among Alphas also vary in quality, and all of them are extremely aggressive.
This is also the reason why this group of gangsters can do evil and be invincible in the surrounding streets.
The gangsters exchanged glances, and Pao Hui counted down: "Three, two, one——"
Pheromones! put! ! !
An extremely strange smell spread to the entire spicy hot pot stall, centered around a few gangsters.
Next second.
Including Tian Dajian and Duan Qiongzhi, most of the diners turned pale, and some even ran to the side to vomit!
The gangsters showed smug expressions.
Success!
Mortals, tremble under the pressure of their Alphas. Some people cannot resist their powerful aura and even vomit out of fear.
The gangsters' expressions became extremely free and easy, proud, and arrogant.
Yes, they are born strong.
...but actually.
The reason why the diners turned pale and some even vomited was not because the pheromones were so powerful.
It was because of the smell of the pheromones of those little hooligans blended together...
It really stinks! ! !
They had no idea what was going on. The pheromones smelled like copper rust, slugs, rotten eggs, and excrement... mixed together and spread out like a high-concentration stink bomb, even stinkier than the smell of a sewer.
People were not scared, but the smell was so bad that few normal humans could withstand it.
Yes, this is the truth behind the gangsters' invincibility.
It’s not because people are afraid of them, but because no one wants to smell the stench all the time. Once you get stuck, you can’t get rid of it, so it’s better to avoid them.
Moreover, their pheromones are so smelly that they have reached the level of biological weapons and can actually cause damage to the glands of ordinary people.
...It's so smelly, no one else can compare to it.
Not far away, Yu Ming was looking at the soup pot in front of Boss Jian.
He was struggling between the shadow of his childhood and the aroma of spicy hot pot, hesitating whether he should eat it. When he smelled the flavor, his expression changed.
This, this stench, this strong pheromone attack...
A tingling sensation in the glands at the back of the neck.
Because of the foul smell he smelled, Yu Ming's stomach was churning with sourness, and even the hot spicy hot pot in front of him suddenly lost its fragrance.
It was not only Yu Ming who changed his expression, but also the other diners:
"Woo, damn, why is it so smelly..." "Yue" "I don't want to vomit! That's Boss Jian's spicy hot pot! Damn it..."
No one was spared wherever the stinking wind swept. No matter how delicious and precious the spicy hot pot in front of them was, they could not resist the urge to vomit.
There is misery everywhere.
However, the next second.
A hot, fragrant breeze blew by!
That wind is the flavor of classic Sichuan spicy hot pot, with the mellow aroma of beef fat red soup, the spiciness of peppercorns, and the meaty aroma of various ingredients, such as fat beef, tripe, and yellow throat, etc., after being boiled...
The strong wind easily covered up the stench of the sewer. Under the cover of the wind, the diners no longer felt nauseous or wanted to vomit. Looking at the spicy hot pot in front of them, they regained their appetite.
Pick up a piece of tofu puff with chopsticks, soak up the soup, and gently bite it into your mouth. The hot and spicy red soup pours out between your lips and teeth.
fragrant!
--etc.
The thugs looked around with grim expressions.
This is impossible! The smell of their Alpha pheromones cannot be masked by the aroma of ordinary food. How could the aroma of this mere spicy hot pot cover up their domineering pheromones? !
Unless, that spicy hot pot smell is not ordinary spicy hot pot, but the pheromone of the same Alpha...
The diners also realized the same problem and everyone was looking around with puzzled eyes.
Who is it? Who is it? !
Soon, everyone's eyes fell on the center of the Malatang stall.
Many people were so horrified by the smell of pheromones that they could not breathe. Several fitness gurus could not help but hold their stomachs, their faces turning pale. Song Jingan, who was also an Alpha, leaned against the wall and began to dry heave. Even Hu Danggui, a thousand-year-old nine-tailed fox, was affected, and the light of the lotus lamp became a little unstable.
But among the crowd, there was only one person who was not affected from beginning to end.
Even when the stench was at its worst, he remained calm, his beautiful face full of concentration and overflowing affection, his eyes blazing as he stared at the soup pot in front of him—
He is Boss Jian!
The crowd stood in awe.
Jian Yunlan didn't care about any thugs coming to mess up the place or releasing stink bombs.
Jian Yunlan only cares about... the yellow throat in front of him needs to be cooked for at least thirty seconds, otherwise it will be overcooked!
For Jian Yunlan, all he had in his eyes was his own snack stall, the heat of the spicy hot pot, and the order in which the various ingredients were put into the pot. In order to present the most perfect taste to diners, Jian Yunlan has no time to waste on any gangsters.
No one is allowed to disturb him setting up his stall!
Jian Yunlan did not realize that his enthusiasm for setting up the stall today was particularly high, and he was extremely focused. He also had a better control over various details, and even his five senses became sharper.
He didn't even realize that he had unknowingly released a very strong spicy hot pot pheromone, which directly overwhelmed the seven or eight sewer-like pheromones...
Yes, this is what people call the susceptible period.
"No. 67, your spicy hot pot is ready." Jian Yunlan's movements were quick and smooth, and a bowl of hot spicy hot pot came out of the pot, glossy, translucent, and bright red.
The diners looked at Jian Yunlan with worshipful eyes.
They only knew that Boss Jian’s spicy hot pot was delicious before, but today they discovered that Boss Jian is so cool and domineering. In order to make a delicious bowl of spicy hot pot for them, he truly focused on the task and became one with the pot!
"Boss Jian, so handsome!"
"What kind of horrible concentration is this? Today I bow down to Boss Jian's floral apron..."
"It's delicious. It's so delicious! Boss Jian's new spicy hot pot is even better."
"So this spicy hot pot smell is Boss Jian's pheromone?" someone asked weakly, "Is Boss Jian... in his susceptible period?"
During the susceptible period, an Alpha's inner obsession will be magnified and pheromones will become stronger. For most Alphas, they will have double the desire for aggression and conquest, especially in terms of sexual desire.
But Jian Yunlan is different.
His obsession is to set up a stall, and what he wants to do most is still to set up a stall.
Therefore, during the susceptible period, Jian Yunlan:
...the stall-setting attribute explodes!
Everyone watched as Jian Yunlan became more and more skilled at cooking spicy hot pot, which was dazzling. His movements revealed an air of dominance, a passionate aggression, and a desire to conquer.
He looked at the ingredients with a burning gaze, scooped them up with a desire to conquer, mixed the seasoning without hesitation, and poured the spicy hot pot into the bowl with aggression.
Everyone: “…”
In all my life, this is the first time I’ve seen someone in a susceptible period, which manifests itself as an extremely high enthusiasm for cooking spicy hot pot.
The spicy hot pot cooked by Boss Jian with such extreme enthusiasm must be exceptionally delicious!
Although Boss Jian’s food tastes good no matter how he cooks it.
The diners couldn't help but look around, who would be the lucky one to get to eat this bowl of spicy hot pot?
“…”
"...Thank you, Boss Jian."
Yu Ming stretched out his hand tremblingly, and took the bowl of hot and freshly-made spicy hot pot amid people's envious eyes.
...In the shadow of Yu Ming’s childhood, there was also a bowl of spicy hot pot.
The bowl of spicy hot pot in my memory comes from a day during an autumn outing in elementary school.
He was very young at that time. Fu Changfeng, who was one year older than him, held his hand. The two children were hungry, so they secretly used their pocket money to buy a bowl of spicy hot pot on the roadside while the teacher was not paying attention. Yu Ming still remembers his younger brother smiling and saying:
"Eat, Xiao Ming, didn't you say you were hungry? This is called Malatang, it's delicious, I'm sure you'll like it."
Fu Changfeng's eyes were long and narrow, and extremely gentle, and in them were the soft concern of an elder brother for his younger brother.
So, the bowl of spicy hot pot was placed in front of young Yu Ming:
There were too many chili peppers, and the red color in the soup was so thick that it was almost black. The pungent smell of various seasonings hit me in the face, and the meat was half-cooked inside, one half was already old, and the other side was still sticky with blood.
It's like dark food from hell.
With his brother's encouraging eyes, the young Yu Ming closed his eyes tightly and ate the spicy hotpot with all his courage. Then he was choked and tears and snot came out of his nose and eyes...
It was as if I saw Tainan in the horizon.
——Grandma had devil horns on her head, bat wings behind her, a flaming trident in her hand, and a plate of dark spicy hot pot in her hands, grinning at him!
From then on, for a full ten years, Yu Ming would walk around all the spicy hot pot stalls and shops he saw on the street.
...until today.
Yu Ming held the bowl of spicy hot pot tremblingly, looked at it carefully, and took a deep breath.
What a bowl of spicy hot pot that is.
Under the warm light, misty steam hits you in the face, bringing with it the refreshing, spicy and fresh aroma of rich bone broth. Yu Ming couldn't help but hold his breath in the overly tempting aroma.
Otherwise you will really be fainted by the fragrance.
The hot temperature of the spicy hot pot was transmitted to Yu Ming's palm through the bowl. He couldn't help but widen his dark eyes, and even felt a little dizzy.
——The red soup inside has an extremely delicate base color, with a layer of crystal clear red oil floating on the surface and bubbling slightly. The soup is full of ingredients, the thin slices of fat beef dipped in minced garlic and white sesame seeds are curled up when boiled at the right temperature, and the yellow throat cut into fancy shapes is crispy and tender and covered with silky sesame sauce.
On top, there are a few leaves of fresh green lettuce, covered with water droplets.
Yu Ming opened his mouth and saliva couldn't help but drip down.
...seems to be too delicious.
Yu Ming even saw a layer of golden light covering the spicy hot pot, as if it was going to shatter all the haze of childhood...
Ah, it’s too milky!
——Grandma has an angel’s halo on her head, three pairs of white seraph wings behind her, and she is holding Boss Jian’s spicy hot pot in her hand, smiling and waving at him!
Yu Ming couldn't wait to pick up a piece of beef with chopsticks and put it into his mouth.
What a piece of fat beef this is.
The fatty beef is covered with sesame paste and red oil, with a shiny surface and full of white sesame seeds. When I took a bite, the hot steam and beef bone soup just out of the pot flowed in my mouth with overwhelming force...
Chewing it and smelling the fragrant oil that comes out with the thick soup makes people feel extremely satisfied.
The more you chew, the more you can feel the fiber of the beef itself. The spicy hot pot soup and the crunchy white sesame seeds make you want to eat more...
Starting this year, due to the busy life and studies, and also because of the deliberate behavior of the nanny at home, Yu Ming has not eaten such high-calorie meat dishes for a long time. Every day he eats boiled tofu and clear soup ramen.
But after taking this bite, his stomach, which had been lonely for a long time, was instantly awakened, clamoring for more.
Yu Ming couldn't help but pick up the bowl and took a big sip.
The hot soup flowed down my throat all at once, and it was extremely delicious.
The malatang was spicy, but not the kind that made people feel uncomfortable. Rather, it was the kind that made people sweat and warmed up the blood in their body.
It's spicy and flavorful, and extremely delicious.
On this cool autumn night, fallen leaves cover the ground and the moon hangs high in the sky.
Amid the bustling crowd on the street, surrounded by the warm atmosphere, having a bowl of this hot spicy hot pot will make you feel the plain beauty of trivial life for the first time in a long time.
Yu Ming murmured, "It's delicious, so delicious..."
He ate voraciously, so quickly that his eyes became wet and the tip of his nose turned red.
Live broadcast room of all worlds.
The audience looked at Yu Ming in other live broadcast rooms, who was struggling hard with the gangsters in the silent night; then they looked at Yu Ming in Jian Yunlan's live broadcast room, who was dazzled by the aroma of a bowl of spicy hot pot and was immersed in the delicious food.
All the viewers who were afraid to watch the heart-wrenching plot, couldn't bear to see Yu Ming suffer, and were attracted by the food... were shocked by the huge contrast.
More and more people couldn't help but click into the live broadcast room to find out what was going on.
The number of viewers in Jian Yunlan’s live broadcast room has ushered in a new wave of surge!
[……?] 】
[Xiu'er, why is this live broadcast room so different? Others are fighting, but you are here? ? ? 】
[Yu Ming, a beautiful boy protagonist, drooled while holding a spicy hot pot? Are you sure this is true? ? =口=】
[Hey, Yu Ming, eat slowly]
[Forget it, if you like it, just eat more. Yu Ming has suffered so much over the years.]
[Looking at Mingming's eyes, it's as if he saw Tainai. I want to eat it too;-;; drooling]
【etc. 】
[Yu Ming’s expression seems a little... sad? 】
In front of the snack stand.
The top-notch delicacy made Yu Ming feel as if he was put into a bubble, isolated from the world and he had no idea where he was.
The shouting, fighting, noisy voices of people and the sounds of carriages around me all faded away.
He was the only one left...
He held the spicy hot pot and ate it mouthful after mouthful, letting the delicious taste warm his internal organs and make his blood boil. He was enveloped by an indescribable happiness...
Maybe people will really feel sad when they are extremely happy.
Click. Click.
Yu Ming lowered his eyes and tears fell into the soup.
When eating such delicious food, Yu Ming couldn't help but think -
If Liangliang was next to him, he would also like this spicy hot pot.
If Liangliang were here, he would definitely lick his ears, rub his big furry head against him, and stretch his head to taste Boss Jian’s delicious spicy hot pot...
.
Among the crowd, Pao Hui was also staring blankly at Jian Yunlan.
The powerful spicy hot pot-flavored pheromone was unstoppable and completely suppressed the pheromones released by the eight Alphas together!
This, how is this possible.
This can't be true!
How could the pheromones of a mere snack stand owner possibly overpower those of eight Alphas? !
Pao Hui saw the little kid Chen Shuoshuo hiding behind Jian Yunlan's stall in the crowd, looking like he was well protected. In front of Jian Yunlan's stall, the young man who was about to challenge them was also happily eating spicy hot pot.
There was a hint of viciousness in Pao Hui's eyes.
In a corner where no one was paying attention, he pulled out a small knife that looked like a flying knife from his waist, shook his wrist, and threw it towards the snack stand.
Yes, Pao Hui practiced throwing knives.
Pao Hui doesn't have many special skills, but his one skill of throwing flying knives, which he almost never misses, is his biggest trump card.
In countless other world lines of "Dark River Light", no matter how hard other challengers tried to rewrite the plot, Yu Ming was still injured countless times by this elusive flying knife. Sometimes his palm was pierced, sometimes his cheek was cut, and once his optic nerve was directly injured, leaving him disabled.
In all timelines, one of the important reasons for Yu Ming’s tragedy is this elusive flying knife.
And at this moment, in this timeline.
The flying knife also made a sound of breaking through the air and flew straight towards Yu Ming!
whoosh!
Everything happened so fast that no one could notice.
Just as the flying knife was about to pierce Yu Ming's neck:
——“Awoof!”
A big gray dog suddenly appeared from nowhere, leaped up like a whirlwind, and bit the flying knife with incredible precision.
There was a small hole on the big dog's ear.
It looked at Pao Hui in the crowd, revealing its sharp fangs...
Pao Hui was so frightened that his legs went weak and he fell to the ground.
And the next second, he watched the extremely strong big dog spit out the throwing knife with disdain.
The big dog lowered its head and rubbed against the boy. It tilted its furry head and rubbed the boy's cheek.
"Liangliang!"
...Yu Ming fell to the ground, his eyelashes were covered with mist.
He could hardly believe his eyes.
Today, he not only ate Boss Jian’s spicy hot pot, but also met Liangliang who had been missing for so many days.
Is he really not dreaming?
Even the professional dog-finding team they hired couldn’t find Liangliang.
Yu Ming knelt on the ground, hugging the big dog, tears welling up in his eyes: "Liangliang...where have you been? I've been looking for you for a long time..."
The big gray dog blinked its wet eyes, tilted its head cutely and continued to rub him.
"You are here to save me?—You are here to protect me, aren't you?"
When Yu Ming saw the flying knife on the ground, he was deeply moved.
It must be to protect him that Liangliang intercepted the flying knife from mid-air!
“…”
The big dog rubbed against people more fiercely and enthusiastically, with its big furry head pressed against Yu Ming's cheek.
It seemed to be too excited, and the force was so great that it almost twisted Yu Ming's mouth.
At first, Yu Ming thought that Liang Liang was just like him, behaving like that because he was too happy and excited.
...But gradually, Yu Ming realized that something was wrong.
Because Liangliang tilted his head and rubbed him with increasing force, as if he was using all his strength.
Until the end, seeing Yu Ming not moving at all no matter how hard he rubbed him, Liang Liang suddenly became anxious...
Liangliang stretched out his furry paws, pushed Yuming aside expressionlessly, then he lay down on the spot and lowered his head.
He happily ate the half bowl of spicy hot pot that Yu Ming hadn't finished.
Snoring. Snoring.
A big piece of fat beef, gurgle, beef balls, quail eggs, gurgle, woof woof!
Other diners: “…”
Yu Ming: “…………”
Wanjie Live Room: “………………”
The silence from the audience was deafening.
After a while, a barrage of comments passed by:
[Liangliang’s expression seemed to be saying…]
——"Lao Deng, it's my turn to try Boss Jian's spicy hot pot!"
