Vol 2 Chapter 16.4 (1/2)

Volume 2 Extra Story Part 4: Don’t tell me this is the Yaminabe special chapter

“And so, another round has ended just like that.” Guo Jia said as she played with the celery she had picked out, making a *gachi* *gachi* sound. “I think we should be able to conclude the game with this round.

At this time, Meng De was the one left standing on her side.

As though they were cursed, people went down one by one in horrific fas.h.i.+ons.

“Th, this meat… I can’t.”

“That’s right, though it’s not a chilli, this is too…” Dian Wei’s chopsticks slipped from her hands and she collapsed before she could finish her statement.

At the start of the second round, Xu Chu and Dian Wei stepped on the absolute worst landmines and collapsed before they were carried out.

And when it came to the third round, disaster struck Li Dian and Yue Jin.

“…” Yue Jin’s chopsticks held a chilli (looks like the Jing state one).

“…” Li Dian’s chopsticks held a chilli (looks like the Jing state one).

I must say, these 2 have really terrible luck, seeing as they’ve had chillies every round. But what truly amazed me was their willpower that has allowed them to last through 2 chillies thus far.

But–

“… I still think that Yi state chilli has a deeper taste.” Yue Jin said as she collapsed onto the table with a deep red face after eating the chilli.

“… Jing state chilli is indeed good, I give a full 100 marks.” Li Dian gave her review as her hands trembled uncontrollably after eating the chilli before collapsing onto the table as well.

— From the results, seems like 3 times is the absolute limit.

As for our side, there were some who left their seat, but this was after what happened to Li Dian and Yue Jin.

Mi Zhen was still a little kid, and it wasn’t good for her to stay hungry for too long so Gan Qing bade her to go and have some food inside first so she could sleep early.

“No, I want to continue…” Mi Zhen tried to protest but her stomach was growling profusely and her eyes were already closing.

“Don’t push yourself too much.” Gan Qing said with concern to Mi Zhen and shook her shoulders so she could stay awake a little while more, “I’ll bring her to go eat first. But let me say this, I am not forfeiting!” Gan Qing then brought Mi Zhen to the back after saying so.

n.o.body had any objections, since Mi Zhen needed someone to look after her.

As for Meng De, from the first round up till now, all she had been getting was my tofu.

As for me, apart from the first round, I hadn’t gotten any landmines.

And so, just like that, the 7 of us entered the fourth round.

“Geh, I feel a little disgusted after what I’ve been eating~~” Zhang Liao said with a pale face as she covered her mouth and reached into the cauldron with her chopsticks. “Th, this one then.”

Zhang Liao picked– Pork ribs. Looks a little uncooked despite being inside for so long.

“Ah, I brought that!” Yi De exclaimed happily. “I was planning to eat that myself too. You sure got it good, Zhang Liao!”

“Ha… Though this is not bad in and of itself, but after soaking in this soup…” Zhang Liao said helplessly and made to eat it.

And at that very moment–

*w.a.n.g*! *w.a.n.g*!

“Waa!!!!~~~”

Red Hare, who had been obediently in Feng Xian’s arms, suddenly barked when it saw the pork ribs in Zhang Liao’s chopsticks, which frightened Zhang Liao who had been apprehensive of Red Hare all this while.

“Wh, what’s the matter? Red Hare.” Feng Xian hurriedly hugged Red Hare tight so that it could not jump onto Zhang Liao.

“D, don’t come over–” Zhang Liao said fearfully as she stood up and backed out toward the courtyard as her pupils dilated as she looked at Red Hare while her lips were open and quivering, as though she were looking at a monster.

“Zhang Liao! Throw away the chopsticks in your hands!” Yun Chang shouted anxiously at Zhang Liao. Only then did I realise that Zhang Liao was still holding on to the chopsticks which held the pork ribs.

“Ah? Ah!” Zhang Liao flung the pork ribs away once she realised it.

Oi oi oi, this is way too high!

Zhang Liao threw the pork ribs into the air, on a trajectory which was aimed towards us.

—- A-hen.

“Un?”

All of a sudden, Yo De flew from her seat and opened her mouth wide and ate the meat in mid-air.

“Thank you for the treat.” Yi De said as she spat the bone out.

“Red Hare, don’t eat that, your stomach will be bad.” Feng Xian admonished Red Hare, who was now a lot more obedient.

“Hu~~” Zhang Liao heaved a sigh of relief as she saw that Red Hare’s attention wasn’t on her anymore.

Feng Xian patted Red Hare’s head lightly to punish it, and then brought out a carrot from her bag. Looks like she didn’t put them all into the cauldron.

Ah, I really envy Red Hare. I want to eat something normal too.

“Out!” Just then, Guo Jia yelled out unhappily.

“Un?”

“Ah, it should be my turn now.” Feng Xian said as she put down the carrot and made to pick something out from the cauldron.

“No, I’m not talking about that.” Guo Jia grabbed Yi De’s hand. “Lord Zhang Fei, Lord Lu Bu, Lord Zhang Liao. — You 3 are disqualified. To put it simply, you 3 are now forced to retire from the game.”

“W, why!”

“Being disqualified all of a sudden…”
