There are always some people in this world who are exceptionally clever, and there are always some who like to think they are clever, or you could say they are cautious.
When Ye Zhizun first allowed everyone to order the final dish, everyone chose the one they needed most. However, it turned out that it wasn't nearly as good as the randomly selected dish. Some people realized that Ye Zhizun might not really want others to order, which was why the randomly selected main dish was so effective. Others thought that the first random dish might have been a smokescreen by Ye Zhizun, and that the effect would only get worse with each subsequent dish. Still others couldn't afford to gamble; they might have saved up resources for a long time to eat at the Mountain Peak Cottage, so naturally they didn't dare to gamble on the randomly selected dish.
"However, while this dish smells incredibly delicious, its effects may not be what I urgently need. I've accumulated a wealth of experience and encountered numerous problems throughout my cultivation, but I've never achieved enlightenment. The effects of enlightenment are of paramount importance to me."
"It smells somewhat similar to Buddha Jumps Over the Wall. If that's the case, then this attribute is incredibly powerful, and you'll definitely regret it..."
...
Whether others regret it or not, I don't know, but Qingcheng certainly won't.
Even after looking at the menu, there were very few, if any, dishes that would be effective for her. If she really wanted something to work, she would probably have to get this fellow villager to bring out his most treasured secrets. After all, the effect she wanted was extraordinary. There's no such thing as a free lunch; you have to give something to get it. She couldn't think of anything this fellow villager might need at the moment.
So her main purpose for coming here is to enjoy the food. After all, eating delicious food can improve one's mood, and when one is in a good mood, many other things will change in a way that is hard to explain. Perhaps she will even reap some unexpected joys as a result.
"Master, Master, do you know what kind of delicacy this is? Why is my mouth watering just from the smell?"
The Peach Blossom Fairy kept swallowing her saliva, but no matter how hard she tried, she showed no sign of stopping.
The Rose Fairy did not answer her; she was also feeling very uncomfortable at the moment, and all her energy and attention were focused on controlling her saliva.
Not only the two of them, but also Qingcheng and Peony Fairy had succumbed to the allure of such delicious food. Qingcheng and Peony Fairy frequently covered their faces with their sleeves, secretly swallowing their saliva. They just wished the food would be served soon!
Just when everyone was practically straining their eyes to make a hole in the door, the seemingly unchanging wooden door finally creaked open.
"Please come in!"
At the same instant, almost everyone in the private room blurted out those words. None of them realized this; they were like great white sharks waiting for their delicious prey.
When the kitchen helpers carried the trays into the private room, they were stunned for a moment, and then felt a chill run down their spines, as if they had become the little white rabbit being stared at by countless hungry wolves.
She carefully placed the plate on the table, then ran out of the private room like a startled rabbit, patting her chest with lingering fear even after she left.
"Holy crap... I almost thought I'd stumbled into a wolf's den, it scared me to death."
Jing Lei glanced speechlessly at the private room, then hurried back to the kitchen without daring to linger for even a moment. Only in the kitchen, by his junior uncle's side, could he feel a sense of safety.
Meanwhile, in each of the private rooms, just as all the kitchen helpers left, a whirlwind seemed to blow through the room, and the several plates that were originally placed together were instantly swept away.
As soon as everyone eagerly lifted the lids of their plates, they were all captivated by the wonderful scene before them.
The plump sea god, the round abalone, the thick goose feet... all the ingredients shimmered with a captivating luster under the sauce, and the aroma that kept wafting into the nose told everyone how delicious they were.
Who the hell can handle this?!
No one held back anymore; they grabbed their chopsticks and started picking up their favorite side dishes.
Crisp sea cucumber, tender abalone, sweet and savory shrimp...
Every dish in the entire pot was exquisite; everyone was so engrossed in eating that they completely forgot who they were and where they were, and all they could do was eat and eat...
"Damn, I was eating a dish and it seemed like I was being shrewdly made up."
"Why did you see your great-grandmother?"
“She said I was an unfilial son, that I didn’t know how to show her such good things.”
"I think she's right. You're not even willing to share something this good with me..."
"Go eat your sweet and sour pork. Who told you not to listen to me? That's all I have to say. Get back to your food."
Qingcheng felt an ethereal sensation after taking a bite of the sea cucumber, even more so than when she ascended to immortality, since she was already an immortal.
One bite and it's crisp and refreshing, like the most tender cartilage. This kind of thing should be hard to flavor, but the perfect amount of sauce coats the whole sea cucumber without any gaps, giving you a rich texture with every bite.
Then I picked up another piece of abalone. Its soft and tender texture, and when I took a bite, it burst with broth, filling my mouth with the essence of all the ingredients. The taste was so delicious that I was speechless. The word "fresh" seemed to be engraved in my mind.
The thickened broth doesn't contain any spices; almost all the deliciousness comes from the ingredients themselves. So, although the broth is rich, it doesn't mask the natural aroma of the ingredients. Instead, it perfectly enhances their freshness and fragrance.
After finishing all the food, there was still a little bit of soup left in the porcelain bowl. This soup was the essence and absolutely could not be wasted.
Picking up the porcelain bowl, Qingcheng began to gulp it down. Because of the large movement, a mischievous drop of soup even dripped down the corner of her mouth.
After finishing the bowl of soup, Qingcheng couldn't help but let out a burp, then stuck out her pink tongue and licked the last bit of soup into her mouth.
This breathtaking scene left all the flower fairies in the room speechless. Only one thought remained in their minds: although they were also women, it didn't seem like a terrible thing for a woman to marry another woman, did it?
