Chapter 200 The Vanished Beef
"If you think I'm overestimating myself, then keep going, turn left, turn right, turn left again, and you'll soon reach Qingshui County. Goodbye." Lin Luoxi didn't intend to explain anything to the sickly handsome man's disdainful tone, nor did she invite him to go up Bear Ridge with her. Her tone remained indifferent.
"General Lin, what about you?" The sickly-looking man thought Lin Luoxi was overestimating herself and acting recklessly. Surely Lin Jize wouldn't be acting recklessly too.
"Since I brought this girl out unharmed, I must bring her back unharmed as well." Lin Jize said this with a bitter expression on his face.
However, he really wanted to see what this girl was capable of, daring to boast that she could take down Bear Ridge.
“Miss Lin, the bandits at Bear Ridge are very fierce. It’s best to leave such a dangerous matter to the government officials. You are a weak woman; you should come back with us!”
Because of Lin Luoxi's medical skills, Old Man Li's opinion of Lin Luoxi changed a lot, and he wanted to persuade Lin Luoxi to change her mind.
“Grandpa Li, my great-grandfather lives in Wutong Village. You take your master there first, and we will be back soon.”
"Don't worry, I'll take your consultation fee and naturally help you cure your master." Lin Luoxi thought that the old man Li was only concerned about her because of his master's illness, so she spoke in a distant tone.
After saying that, he ignored the people and poured the thinly sliced beef into the pot.
A group of people were standing around her, but they didn't seem to have any effect on her. After pouring in the beef slices, she quickly stirred them with chopsticks.
"Miss Lin, what are you doing?" Looking at the bright red soup at the bottom of the pot, which looked very appetizing, the perverted handsome man couldn't help but ask.
"I'm making food," Lin Luoxi replied impatiently. Couldn't you tell she was cooking from such obvious movements?
"Uh, I mean, what dish are you making? It looks delicious." He had never seen this way of eating before.
"Boiled beef slices." Seeing that the other person was like a curious child with a million questions, Lin Luoxi couldn't continue to keep a cold face.
"I've never tried boiled beef slices before. Miss Lin, would you be so kind as to give it a try? I'd love to hear how it tastes."
The sickly-looking handsome man, smelling the scent wafting in the air, had already begun to swallow his saliva.
"Of course, but this beef is quite hard to come by. I only bought a little bit..." Lin Luoxi's intention was that she could eat the beef she bought at great expense if she wanted to, as long as she paid.
Standing to the side, Lin Jize couldn't help but purse his lips when he heard Lin Luoxi's words. This girl really doesn't even blink when she speaks now.
What do you mean by "only bought a little"? The most piled-up item in the entire carriage was beef.
It's too hot now. If he doesn't finish eating quickly, he dares to say that by the time they get back to Wutong Village, the beef will probably smell rotten.
"That's easy! Ji Feng, go and get some beef from a cow." Upon hearing Lin Luoxi's words, the sickly-looking man didn't think much of it and immediately ordered Ji Feng beside him to get some beef.
"Master, can we finish all the beef from one cow?" Ji Feng thought his master had gone mad. If he wanted to eat beef, he didn't need to bring so much!
"Don't you want to eat? If you don't, you can bring some over." He was almost dying of craving from the aroma wafting in the air, and this monsoon was still whining here.
"If you want to eat, we'll say Master is the best." Hearing his master's words, Ji Feng no longer cared about the amount of beef from a cow. Afraid that his master would change his mind, he used his lightness skill and flew away.
"Miss Lin, look, I'll pay for the beef. Can I have your boiled beef slices now?" The sickly-looking handsome man turned around and asked Lin Luoxi with a smile after watching Ji Feng and Li Feng leave to get the beef.
"Okay!" Considering that the other party was her benefactor, Lin Luoxi reluctantly nodded in agreement.
"Girl, in your carriage..." Lin Jize saw Lin Luoxi's stingy appearance and couldn't help but want to speak up for his master, so he pulled Lin Luoxi aside to talk.
"Grandpa, what's on the carriage..." Lin Luoxi pretended to be clueless and didn't understand Lin Jize's words, asking innocently.
"Oh, I was just saying, didn't you have grain seeds on your carriage? Otherwise, I think I saw some rats climbing up there..." This girl is really stingy to the extreme.
"Really, I bought those specifically to grow." Upon hearing Lin Jize's words, Lin Luoxi hurriedly dropped the spoon in her hand and ran towards the carriage.
"..." Lin Jize stroked his beard, wanting to see Lin Luoxi give herself away and have the beef in the carriage discovered.
"No! Grandpa, where is the mouse you mentioned?" Lin Luoxi's puzzled voice came from inside the carriage.
"How could it not be there? Look carefully." Lin Jize said, and kindly stepped forward, lifting the curtain to try and find it with Lin Luoxi.
"Hey, hey, girl, where's the beef you bought?" Lin Jize looked into the carriage and saw only Lin Luoxi and the grain seeds she had bought; the mountain of beef was gone.
"What beef? Isn't the beef already in the pot? Grandpa, are you hallucinating?" Lin Luoxi couldn't help but laugh when she saw Lin Jize's shocked and dumbfounded expression.
That old fox wants to use the beef she bought to do her a favor, without even considering whether she's willing. She paid for the beef, so why should she share it?
If it's her friend, she'll give them all without hesitation.
But because the other party looked down on her so much, she was willing to give her beef to that ungrateful wretch.
When Lin Jize reminded her that there were rats in the carriage, she got into the carriage and moved the beef into her spatial dimension.
Not only will it prevent others from thinking about it, but it will also keep it fresh, achieving multiple benefits in one fell swoop.
"Bullshit, how could so much beef suddenly disappear?" If Lin Jize remembered correctly, Lin Luoxi only cut off a piece of beef, and there should still be a lot left.
"Grandpa, I think you're getting senile. I've already cut up the beef I bought and cooked it. Look, it's still bubbling in the pot."
After saying that, without caring that Lin Jize was still doubting himself, he walked past Lin Jize, went to the pot of beef, picked up a bowl, and invited the sickly handsome man and the others to eat together.
"Master, you've only just recovered a little, you can't eat just anything..." Old Man Li saw the bright red pot with a pungent smell, and when he saw the sickly-looking handsome man holding chopsticks and about to pick up some food, he stepped forward to stop him with concern.
“It’s alright. Your master just has a cold constitution in his spleen and stomach. Eating this beef will actually help his condition.” Lin Luoxi couldn’t help but speak up when she saw the sickly-looking handsome man’s face showing a wronged expression as he tried to stop Li Laotou.
