Bloody Delicacy
"Lin..." Yuan Xuanlang glanced at the crowd who were staring at him eagerly, then looked at Lin Yuan, who had a cold expression on her face. His smile faded slightly, and he changed his tone and said, "Master Lin, it's been a long time."
Lin Yuan raised his chin slightly, "Well, Sect Master Yuan, please follow me."
Yuan Xuanlang led the others to follow, reflecting on himself. Could it be that Lin Yuan was so cold to him because she had been busy with official duties for the past few months and neglected to contact her, and she was angry because of this? No, he had to coax her back.
Arriving at the main hall, Lin Yuan took a seat. Sitting on the main seat, she looked at Yuan Xuanlang across from her with a meaningful smile. "Master Yuan, how are you? How is your sect doing lately?"
How could she be angry? She was clearly overjoyed, yet also harboring a hint of conspiracy.
Yuan Xuanlang smiled politely, "Master Lin, I'm worried about you. Everything is fine."
"Master Yuan, you must be exhausted from the journey. I have specially prepared a feast of Jifeng Tower's specialties for you." As Lin Yuan spoke, maids of all kinds brought in plates of delicious food.
"You are so polite, OP..." Yuan Xuanlang and his companions were shocked when they saw the "bloody delicacies" in the bowls and plates.
There was red blood on the top of the steamed bun, the liver lay dark red and silent on the plate, a red "river of blood" flowed on the pastry, a few eye-catching vegetable leaves floated on the red sticky soup, and the most eye-catching golden dishes were fried grasshoppers, fried silkworm pupae and the like.
This dish had no name, yet every inch of the golden chopsticks and jade spoons bore the words "delicacies and delicacies." They couldn't eat any more, and after a long scrutiny, they finally discerned the meaning of the dish: the entire table was etched with the words "drinking blood."
Someone couldn't hold back and roared, "You demon cultists are really bloodthirsty!"
The guards around them quickly drew out half of their swords, blinding the eyes of the irritable old man. He looked at Master Yuan angrily.
Yuan Xuanlang's eyes narrowed slightly, and his tone was extremely intimidating: "Sit down! Master Lin is kind enough to entertain us, so don't be ungrateful."
He saw that the people in the Demon Sect were waiting for them to take their first bite of food, and Lin Yuan also smiled with an ambiguous smile.
This behavior is very suspicious. Could it be that the food is poisonous and they dare not eat it?
"Master Yuan, are you guys dissatisfied with my Jifeng Tower's remote location and poor resources? It's true. We can't compare to your Jinghu Sect, which has a rich and abundant Jinghu Sect with its outstanding people and abundant resources."
The members of the Demonic Cult were stunned. The OP seemed to have completely overturned their perceptions. Where had the cold, erratic, and majestic OP gone? Who was this White Lotus?
Seeing Lin Yuan lowering her head in grievance, looking sad and lost, he plucked up his courage, took the lead, scooped a spoonful of red soup and was about to taste it.
Oh, it turned out to be a beauty trap. The OP is wise!
However, a scream interrupted him, "Master, don't!"
I saw a young man rush up, slapped the spoon away, picked up the bowl and drank the red soup in one gulp.
"Wu Liangye?" Yuan Xuanlang looked at him in shock.
Wu Liangye's expression of fearless despair turned into one of deep sorrow, as he waited for death. He covered his abdomen with both hands, his eyes reddened with tears. "Master, I'm dying. I only ask that you give the three hundred taels under the big neck tree in my courtyard to my mother..."
Yuan Xuanlang said with a serious expression, "Don't worry..."
"Hahaha," Lin Yuan said these three words mechanically, gritting her teeth and saying, "If this tomato soup can poison you, I lose.
What is tomato soup? Everyone was puzzled.
"What is a tomato?"
Lin Yuan said a word they knew: "wolfberry." She couldn't help but feel sorry for them because they had never eaten tomatoes.
She had previously seen red tomatoes rotting in the wild because no one dared to eat them, so she moved the tomato seedlings into the vegetable garden and built a greenhouse so that the tomatoes could bear fruit in the cold winter.
Someone said, "This wolf fruit is poisonous! How could we not guess the evil intentions of your demonic cult?"
"Eat when you should eat and drink when you should drink. If you want to starve to death, go ahead." Lin Yuan ate a silkworm pupa by herself. It was crispy, tender, and full of protein.
The demon sect members also started to eat and drink. They were used to killing and were not afraid of death. Moreover, the owner of the building had set an example. If they were still timid, they would be unworthy of being members of the Jifeng Building.
"Wu Liangye, if you're alright, just sit back down."
Wu Liangye was stunned for two seconds, feeling no discomfort at all, so he scratched his head awkwardly, bowed twice, and took his seat.
The righteous man made up his mind and tasted the red soup. His frown relaxed, and it turned out to be sweet and sour.
Lin Yuan looked at everyone who had finally returned to normal and shook his head secretly. If the two factions wanted to cooperate, they had to build trust.
"Everyone, wolfberry was suspected to be poisonous before anyone tried it, but now you have confirmed that it is not only non-toxic, but sweet and sour and delicious. It was originally not picked, but it has been preserved for a long time. If no one has dared to try it before, and no one has dared to try it after, wouldn't it be a waste of a delicacy?" Lin Yuan glanced at everyone's faces slowly, paused for a moment, and smiled knowingly.
The moment Yuan Xuanlang looked at her, his heart skipped a beat and waves surged in his heart. If it is a bird, let it fly freely. Skimming over the water and leaping onto the mountain mist is its true beauty.
Lin Yuan's clear voice echoed through the silent hall. "So I hope that the cooperation between our two factions can transcend the vulgar theories of our predecessors about sects. Whether you are a reckless man or Master Langyue, under the inhumane destruction of the Wanmie Sect, when the court is about to fall and war is about to break out, you and I are equal, nothing more than human beings, and we all have the same goal of protecting our homes, wives, and children."
"I believe that you are not here to teach me propaganda and enlightenment, but to seek cooperation. So let's treat each other sincerely. I apologize for any offense I caused you just now."
After the words fell, everyone's expressions varied, some were filled with admiration, some were filled with shame, and some were lost in thought for a long time...
"Excellent!" Yuan Xuanlang clapped his hands in approval. "Master Lin has the world at heart, not just a single pond. I admire you and look forward to collaborating with your sect."
Lin Yuan breathed a sigh of relief, and in order to highlight her character, she pursed her lips and did not smile. She later arranged accommodation for Jinghu's people.
At night, the shadows of trees shone on the wall. Two people met, smiled at each other, and said in unison: "You can't sleep either?"
Yuan Xuanlang ruffled Lin Yuan's hair and said, "Yuan Yuan is really different from before."
Lin Yuan tilted her head and asked, "Who is better, the me before or the me now?"
This is a fatal question.
He immediately replied, "Each has its own merits. Yuanyuan is always cute, and I like you no matter what you are like."
Yuan Xuanlang's clever words are like being dipped in honey, so sweet.
Lin Yuan nodded and grinned: "Well, I'm very satisfied."
He bent down, lifted a strand of her hair and sniffed it: "Then let me be satisfied too."
Lin Yuan opened her amber eyes and asked innocently, "How can I satisfy you?"
"Let me... hold you for a while." He hugged Lin Yuan tightly in his arms, rubbed her hair, and smelled the icy fragrance on her body, then he realized that this was not a dream.
He held her face and kissed her gently with lingering love. She put her arms around his neck and took the initiative to satisfy him.
That's enough, this moment is worth a thousand words.
