Ye Xiruo took the overjoyed Ling Xue out, while Ling Yue stayed at the inn to oversee the caravan's supplies and the procurement of goods.
"Is this your first time going out, young lady?"
"Sister Ye, please don't call me 'Little Miss' anymore, just call me Xiaoxue."
Ye Xiruo patted Ling Xue's head: "Okay, Xiao Xue."
"Yes, I secretly followed my older sister out this time. There's a bad guy in the family who makes me very uncomfortable."
"Let's go see if there's anything good to eat."
"Okay." Ling Xue's eyes lit up instantly, like two bright little light bulbs. Ye Xiruo couldn't help but smile. So she was a little foodie.
This place is quite far from the central continent, and the local customs and culture are very different. You can tell from their clothing that the people here are bold and rugged. Whether they are men or women, their clothing is quite sexy, mainly made of leather, which outlines their muscular or alluring bodies.
There were other people dressed similarly to Ye Xiruo and Xiu Qiyu, clearly from out of town. The people here are very direct; if they like someone, they'll come up and give them flowers. Ye Xiruo has already turned away seven people—she's a married woman, after all. Besides, with a peerless genius like Brother Xiu Qiyu, who would even look at these wildflowers and weeds by the roadside?
Those people were not discouraged by Ye Xiruo's rejection. This little girl looked like an elf, with fair and tender skin that looked like it could be squeezed to release water. She was full of an indescribable charm.
"I'm sorry, I can't accept it." Ye Xiruo rejected a well-built, rugged-looking man again. If she had known that the people here were like this, she should have disguised herself before coming out, or simply used a disguise pill to become an ordinary passerby and have these people fawn over her.
Passing by a place that resembled a snack shop from their previous life, Ye Xiruo and Ling Xueli slipped inside and picked out some dried fruit, roasted nuts, and local specialties, spending about one hundred low-grade spirit stones.
Ye Xiruo didn't put these snacks into her spatial ring. Instead, she and Ling Xue opened them and ate them directly. If there were any particularly delicious ones, they could buy more when they got back.
Along the way, we came across some food stalls, selling barbecue, pastries, and noodles. The two little foodies tried them all.
They didn't know what kind of meat the barbecue was made of, but Ye Xiruo and Ling Xue each ate ten skewers and still felt they hadn't had enough, so they decided to go back and wait to buy a few more.
"Please wait a moment, ladies, it will be ready soon."
"May I ask what kind of monster's meat you used?"
"The third-class spirit beast is the Pine Otter. This spirit beast grows up eating pine nuts, so it has a delicate and fragrant taste and is very popular."
"You baked it very well."
"Thank you for your kind words, ladies."
Ye Xiruo planned to go out later and buy some squirrels to put in her space. She was eating beggar's chicken every day, and it was time to change things up. These squirrels were quite good. If she could find other delicious ingredients, that would be even better.
Ye Xiruo and Ling Xue were eating kebabs on the street without a care for their image. Finally, no one dared to approach them, and Ye Xiruo breathed a sigh of relief.
The two smelled another delicious aroma, and a crowd had gathered in front of them. They wondered what kind of food it was. They joined the crowd. A moment later, someone came out carrying a bag, and Ye Xiruo, shamelessly barging in, asked, "Brother, what's that for sale?"
Seeing that they were two beautiful young women, the man didn't react. He simply opened the package and let them take a look. Ye Xiruo quickly thanked him and pulled Ling Xue away. Good heavens, it was actually the heart of some kind of animal! Although it smelled delicious and made them very hungry, both of them turned pale at the same time.
Good heavens, how could this be so barbaric, so brutal, so cruel, so unreasonable? The two girls almost threw up, and they couldn't even finish their skewers, so they simply packed them away.
"Alright, let's see if there's anything else we like." Ye Xiruo comforted Ling Xue, who was clearly quite frightened, her eyes red: "It's okay, maybe it's made of flour, don't scare yourself."
"Really?"
"Of course it's true." Ye Xiruo could lie without any pressure now.
The two continued strolling, and besides food, there were many other things on the street, such as jewelry and cosmetics.
Although Ye Xiruo wasn't particularly interested in these things—everything she used was arranged by Jing Li, with the Pill King Palace sending her the best every month—she wasn't particularly interested in them. Ling Xue, however, was very interested. The little girl enthusiastically pulled Ye Xiruo aside, asking, "Sister Ye, do you think this hairpin is pretty?"
Ye Xiruo nodded: "Okay."
"And this bracelet is so pretty, and there are even patterns on the stone?"
"Um."
"This hat is nice too, I like the feather."
"purchase."
When they arrived at Rouge's, Ling Xue tried it on with great enthusiasm, but after discovering that she looked even uglier, she immediately refused. Ye Xiruo was quite exasperated by her impulsiveness.
After eating her fill, Ye Xiruo found a shop that specialized in selling all kinds of spirit beast meat and went inside.
"Gentlemen, would you like something?"
"I want as much of the highest grade, freshest, and best-tasting spirit beast meat you have here."
As soon as Ye Xiruo said this, the shop assistant immediately ran to call his manager. A distinguished guest had arrived. This order would be worth at least several dozen mid-grade spirit stones, equivalent to a month's income for the small shop.
Soon, the shopkeeper came out; he was a fat man with a pale, round face, and his small eyes were almost slits. He instructed the waiter to quickly serve tea and handed Ye Xiruo a box that looked like a cookbook.
"These are all the spirit beasts in our shop. Please take a look."
"I want the freshest meat, can you guarantee that?"
"Sir, what a coincidence! The hunting team will be back soon today, and the meat will be absolutely the freshest spirit beast meat."
"Alright, I'll take all the meat from spirit beasts of level two or above. The most important thing is that it has to taste good. If I find out you've been lying to me, you know the consequences." Ye Xiruo didn't use much force with her hand, and the stone table in front of her was already covered with cracks.
The shopkeeper's chubby face was filled with shock. So she was a master! He really couldn't tell. You really can't judge a book by its cover. Such a young girl, yet her inner strength is so profound. He had to see it with his own eyes this time. He absolutely couldn't let this deal fall apart.
Are there squirrels?
"Yes, pine otter meat is delicious and very popular. Hunting teams catch a lot of pine otters every time."
“I’ll take them all.” Ye Xiru put down a pile of low-grade spirit stones: “This is the deposit. Deliver it to Yuelai Inn.”
Yes, yes, yes.
