Chapter 198 Extra
The spider leg meat was steaming when it was placed on the plate. The white leg meat was slightly shredded, which reminded Du Heng of the crab legs he had eaten before. However, it did not have the sea flavor of crab legs, but only a light fruity wood fragrance. Du Heng picked up a piece with chopsticks and put it into Xuan Yu's mouth: "Is it delicious?"
Before Xuan Yu could answer, Feng Gui was happy: "It's not poisonous, you can eat it without worry. Do you still need Xiaoyu to test the poison for you?" Du Heng blinked and said innocently: "I just think this meat looks delicious."
Xuan Yu licked the corner of his mouth: "Very good." Even if Du Heng really asked him to try the poison, he would be happy to do so.
Hearing Xuan Yu say this, Du Heng took a piece of spider meat with chopsticks and put it into his mouth. The spider meat looked tender and tasted even more tender. Du Heng thought of the mouth-watering chicken he made before. The taste of the mouth-watering chicken was similar to this leg!
The mouth-watering chicken needs seasoning, but the spider meat is simply roasted and tastes amazing. No wonder Xiaoxiao and the others are so concerned about the bird-eating spider, it really tastes good.
A big spider has eight legs. After Feng Gui spread out the legs, there were still three legs and a big body left on the banana leaf. He rolled up the banana leaf and stuffed it into the storage bag: "Give the remaining legs to Nan Nan, he loves to eat this."
Du Heng looked at Feng Gui with a smile: "It seems that our Xixi cares about Nan Nan." Feng Gui felt embarrassed when being looked at. He turned his head away. The firelight made his already gorgeous eyebrows and eyes even more beautiful: "Always..."
If the spider had already amazed Du Heng, the next centipede had already smelled a burning aroma before it was even finished roasting. The centipede had many legs, and after being roasted by the spiritual fire, the thin legs were first roasted. After the legs on both sides of the centipede were roasted, the centipede's body was also roasted thoroughly by the spiritual fire.
Xuan Yu pulled the iron cage out of the fire. The centipede in the cage had turned orange-red, like a cooked prawn. Xuan Yu opened the cage and took the centipede out. The centipede could no longer remain intact. With a slight break, the centipede broke into pieces, revealing the pink and white flesh inside.
Feng Gui took out a large banana leaf, and Xuan Yu dumped the centipede on the banana leaf. The centipede's legs had turned into burnt black powder, and when its body fell on the banana leaf, the black powder fell all over the ground.
Feng Gui frowned when he saw it: "What a waste! I told you, this thing tastes better when fried in oil." Xuan Yu calmly picked up the centipede pieces: "The peony flower pot is not this big."
The roasted centipede segments were covered with an orange-red shell, and the meat inside could be seen from the broken surface. Xuan Yu squeezed the centipede shell, which was as big as his fist, and broke it in half, and the meat inside fell out.
He put the centipede meat on Du Heng's plate: "If you find it bland, you can dip it in your favorite sauce." There are hundreds of sauces in Du Heng's storage bag, and there is always one that is suitable for centipede meat.
The meat that fell out of the shell smelled the same as shrimp meat. Du Heng thought he could easily pick it up with chopsticks, but he didn't expect that the meat was so tight that chopsticks couldn't pick it up at all. However, this did not bother the foodies. Du Heng's chopsticks flickered with a faint light, and the centipede meat turned into bite-sized pieces.
Du Heng picked up a piece of centipede meat and put it in his mouth. He raised his eyebrows in amazement: "It's so delicious!" It was the first time for him to taste seafood when he ate something from land. The centipede meat tasted like prawns, tender and chewy with a little sweetness. For Du Heng, who has a relatively light taste, the centipede meat was delicious enough even without any dipping sauce.
Feng Gui picked up a few centipede segments, wrapped them in banana leaves and stuffed them into the storage bag. The remaining centipede segments were placed on the leaves on the ground. Feng Gui said, "Leave these for Feng Lin and Xiao Yu Mao."
Du Heng was feeding Xuan Yu a piece of centipede meat. After hearing this, he looked around and asked, "Where's Xiaoxiao?" Didn't Xiaoxiao just say she was going to get some insects? The wooden table was so close, why didn't she see him?
Feng Gui picked up a centipede segment and chewed it: "Don't worry about it, he will probably go find another little phoenix to play with."
At this time, more and more demon cultivators came to the square. The demon cultivators of the Feather Clan were really good at dressing themselves up. Du Heng always thought that Feng Gui's dress was quite coquettish, but he didn't expect that Feng Gui was actually the more conservative one among the Feather Clan.
The feather tribe demon cultivators, who were dressed in gorgeous clothes and good-looking, were enthusiastic and unrestrained. When Du Heng looked over, some of the bolder demon cultivators even gave him a wink. If they were not holding ferocious insects in their hands and smashing them, Du Heng would really think that this was an unparalleled fashion show.
There were not many people around Feng Gui's fire. I don't know if Feng Gui was too serious or he had specially asked them to do so. There were only a few of them around the fire. Du Heng was frying some insects that he could accept in the pot. He didn't dare to look at those with hideous faces, let alone eat them.
Just when Du Heng had fried the first pot of silkworm pupae, there was a commotion under the golden wu tree: "A fight has started!"
At first, Du Heng and his friends thought that the demon cultivators of the Feather Clan were drunk, but when they scanned with their spiritual sense, they saw Xiaoxiao and Xiaoyumao holding down two children of the Feather Clan and beating them up. The group of children around them were all dumbfounded. They stared at Xiaoxiao blankly and dared not even breathe.
Feng Gui soon received a report from his subordinates: "Mr. Feng! Little Mr. Feng is fighting with some kids. Do you want to go and take a look?"
Feng Gui: ...
Du Heng almost dropped the plate in his hand. Did Xiaoxiao hit someone? In his eyes, Xiaoxiao was a mild-tempered, lively and obedient child. The few times he lost his temper were because Feng Gui irritated him. He was fighting so fiercely? Du Heng felt that something was wrong.
Normally, Feng Gui wouldn't need to intervene when two kids were fighting, as the teacher at the Young Cub Hall could handle the matter. But today, the offender was Feng Gui's nephew, and as a parent, Feng Gui couldn't just ignore it.
Xiaoxiao and Xiaoyu were in a state of dismay. They knelt on the ground and stared at Fenggui with their heads raised, unwilling to admit defeat. Beside them, two Xiaoyu people who were being beaten were crying loudly. One of them was a little girl, who was beaten particularly hard. Her cute little face was covered with bruises.
Feng Gui and Xiao Xiao looked at each other. The teacher of the Cub Hall looked at Feng Gui's face cautiously: "Mr. Feng, you see..." It was difficult for him too. To put it simply, it was just a fight between children. To put it more complicatedly, it was a duel between the future high-level leaders of the Feather Clan.
Because Feng Lin was the nephew of the current demon god, and the two who were beaten were the children of the elders. The master was in a dilemma, and he didn't want to offend either side.
Before Feng Gui could say anything, Xiao Xiao sneered: "I'm going to hit you, do you need a reason?" Feng Gui frowned, and Xiao Xiao stared at Feng Gui without fear.
Feng Gui said seriously, "Feng Lin, it is wrong to beat your own kind."
Xiaoxiao's eyes were slightly red, he forced a disdainful smile, and then turned his head away. Xiaoxiao, who was full of pride just now, was very aggrieved now: "Uncle, you only talk about me, why don't you talk about them?"
Feng Gui looked at Xiao Yu Mao and said, "Hong Er, you speak."
Tai Shuhong nodded, organizing his words slowly: "Just now Feng Lin and I were taking insects, Feng Yangyang and Feng Huanhuan suddenly appeared behind Feng Lin. They said that Feng Lin was an orphan who could only hide under his uncle's wings and rely on Feng Jun's protection. Feng Lin didn't want to get involved with them, but they..."
Tai Shuhong pointed at the group of Xiaoyu tribe hiding behind the adults and said, "They surrounded the two of us and insulted us. In the chaos, Feng Yangyang tried to sneak attack Feng Lin, but I stopped him."
Feng Huanhuan is the little girl crying with tears in her eyes, and Feng Yangyang should be the little phoenix whose face turned blue after being beaten by Xiao Yumao. As everyone saw, Xiaoxiao and his friends exploded and pinned the two Yu Clan members who bullied him to the ground and beat them up.
Feng Gui looked at the two beaten little phoenixes kneeling beside him: "Is that so?"
The demon god questioned her personally. Feng Huanhuan felt so guilty that she cried even louder.
Feng Huanhuan and Feng Yangyang were the two most outstanding phoenixes in the Cub Hall. Any of their magical instruments could make the cultivators there envious. Not to mention that they had been learning the most suitable cultivation techniques for the Feather Clan since they were young. If they really fought, their combat effectiveness would be comparable to that of a Nascent Soul.
Feng Huanhuan is a pretty girl recognized by the Phoenix Clan. She has been loved by everyone since she was a child. Feng Huanhuan, who is arrogant, usually doesn't take the little peacocks and phoenixes around her seriously. There is only one person who makes her feel uncomfortable whenever she sees him. That person is Feng Lin.
Feng Huanhuan looked down on Feng Lin, because he could not transform, but was kept by the demon god. Moreover, Feng Lin was too stupid, he could not even draw the Qi into his body. Whenever she saw him approaching her clumsily and cautiously, Feng Huanhuan felt that he was particularly annoying.
Who would have thought that such a useless person who couldn't transform could actually transform with the help of the demon god! Feng Huanhuan gnashed her teeth when she heard the news. The demon god usually thinks so highly of Feng Lin. If he transforms, wouldn't the position of the head of the Feather Clan belong to Feng Lin in the future?
This won't do, Feng Huanhuan is determined to be the next clan leader's wife. She doesn't like Feng Lin, so she won't let Feng Lin take that position.
Children's malice is always pure and straightforward. When Feng Huanhuan expressed her malice towards Xiaoxiao, other children would only follow Feng Huanhuan to bully Xiaoxiao. Xiaoxiao's textbooks were thrown away and his magic tools were broken. Even so, Xiaoxiao did not complain to his uncle and teacher, because he knew that once he complained, his friends would reject him even more.
Xiaoxiao was a person who only remembered food but not beatings. He had been bullied by the Phoenix Clan so many times and cried so many times that he had forgotten how many times he had cried. As long as Feng Huanhuan and the others gave him a smile or a finger, he would follow them happily.
He was so lonely that even if his 'friends' looked down on him and bullied him, he felt that he could bear this kind of grievance as long as there was someone to accompany him.
Who made him unable to transform? A little phoenix that couldn't transform was useless. This concept was deeply rooted in Feng Huanhuan's mind.
Until this afternoon, they saw the dignified and reserved Feng Lin after his transformation. He was no different from other little phoenixes, and even more outstanding than other little phoenixes. He had a new friend by his side, a silver-haired silent child, who only smiled gently when facing Feng Lin.
Feng Huanhuan and the others actually just wanted to teach Feng Lin a lesson, to let him know who was the prettiest cub in the cub hall. But the result of the provocation in the afternoon was that their snacks were snatched away.
How could this be allowed?! Feng Huanhuan and the others decided on the spot that they would beat Feng Lin to tears in public that night. But in the end... they were the ones who cried.
Feng Huanhuan choked up and said, "We were just joking with Feng Lin."
Xiaoxiao turned her head with red eyes: "Feng Huanhuan, do you think I am still the useless person who can't transform and you can summon me at will? Be careful with your words. If I say that you have no father but a mother, if I call you stupid as a pig or a dog, if I say that you are ugly in front of your followers, will you still think this is a joke?!"
Feng Huanhuan cried even louder when she heard this. Xiaoxiao's voice was even louder than Feng Huanhuan's: "Does crying loudly prove that you are a weak person? If so, I will cry for you to see."
Du Heng smiled with relief, and Xuan Yu gently poked his lower back: "Be more restrained."
Xiaoxiao's anger was ignited by Feng Huanhuan's joke: "You have disliked me since I was a child. You said that I can only survive by relying on my uncle. Yes! I admit that without my uncle, I am nothing. Everything I have now was given by my uncle. But this is not a reason for you to attack me. Tell me the truth, how did I, Feng Lin, offend you? Or did I offend all of you, and you need to unite to squeeze and bully me. Just because I am Feng Gui's nominal nephew, do I deserve to die?!"
Feng Gui said coldly: "What did my nephew do wrong? Why should he die?"
Xiaoxiao looked back at Fenggui in surprise. In the past, when he made mistakes, his uncle would only punish him. Did the sun rise from the west this time? His uncle actually favored him?
Feng Gui's eyes were filled with anger. Xiao Xiao's words reminded him of sad things. When he left the Feng Clan all those years ago, this was the treatment his nephew received? !
Don't these spoiled little phoenixes know how bad it is to bully their own kind? At this moment, Feng Gui was convinced that the little phoenixes' actions were supported by the adults behind them. Feng Gui was a person who easily thought too much. The main reason he didn't defend Xiaoxiao openly before was because he was a demon god, and he had to maintain the demeanor of a demon god despite his responsibilities.
However, after going through so many things, Feng Gui's state of mind is no longer the same as before. If he can't even protect those close to him, what's the point of him being a demon god?
