Chapter 576 - Eating is Important (2/2)
“Yes.” Buggy said nervously, “Those fish demons aren’t easy to deal with, we would need…”
Before he could finish, Lonemoon suddenly turned around and shouted over to Yi Qing, “Chef, there are fish in the river.”
Yi Qing’s eyes lit up, he immediately turned, picked up his spatula and headed towards the river.
Huh?
Hold on! Why were they still going there when it said not to.
“It’s dangerous, don’t go to the river…”
Midway through its sentence, he saw the person swing his spatula forcefully towards the river, alongside a loud explosion, a water curtain tens of meters tall instantly splashed up on the river surface. The river was lost half its water.
In the next second, he felt that there seemed to be an additional layer covering the ground, full of numerous shadows in all sizes, there were some even under his own feet and it was growing bigger. He looked up instinctively and saw that a sky full of fish demons were raining down.
He tensed up at this sight, unable to dodge in time, a fish bigger than himself smashed onto it. His legs gave way and he fell to the ground. So heavy, he felt like his shell was about to break into pieces, being weighed down and unable to get up.
Just as he was about to shout for help, the weight above was lifted, the fish had been picked up. Before he could relax, he looked up and happened to see Shen Ying’s face, his body trembled habitually, suddenly feeling like it would be better to continue being weighed down.
“Chef, let’s eat this one today!” But Shen Ying had already turned around and was raising the fish in her hand in Yi Qing’s direction, this one was the biggest!
“Yes, Master.” Chef then walked over and took over the fish in Shen Ying’s hands then turned around and picked up the others.
Buggy then noticed that the entire riverside was covered with all sorts of fish, the smallest was at least tens of kilograms heavy. Originally ferocious marines and demons were now laid out on the ground, like they were being sunned to make salted fish. Bits of a light hearted conversation between the others could also be heard.
“This one is suited to be braised, that one can be steamed, poaching sounds like a good idea for this one. Chef, why don’t you cook a few more fish?”
“Yes Master, no problem Master!”
Buggy: “…” These were all monsters, not fish.
He suddenly felt like his common sense was being tested! He turned around to peep at a certain person who was still picking fish with his spatula in one hand, mm, that one definitely isn’t an ordinary spatula, it must be some artifact, that’s why he was able to capture so many demons with a light swing. Buggy felt like he had discovered the truth.
The two people who were done picking the fish had already returned to the table, mm, they’d managed to do a free top up of ingredients again.
Chef cooked very quickly, in less than half an hours’ time, several dishes had already been served. Perhaps because the ingredients were monsters, the dishes were especially aromatic, at once, the aroma of food wafted around the riverside.
As a semi supplier who had informed them that there were fish in the river, Buggy was very honored to have a seat at the table. Of course, whether he was able to snatch any food for himself was another matter.
The few of them were about to start eating when a sudden gust of wind rose and four figures dressed in blue appeared, the three males and a female seemed to have come through wind-riding and were staring at the three people at the table in surprise.
Lonemoon’s eyes narrowed as he turned to survey the four newcomers, judging by their clothes, they were probably from Immortal Spirit Academy.
“Excuse us for our disruption.” A slighter taller man amongst the four stepped forward and said politely with his fists cupped, “May I ask if you had managed to capture the Red Scented Fish Monster?”
Lonemoon’s hand tightened around his fan before he replied, “We did capture some fish monsters from the river earlier.” As for exactly what kind of fish they were, he wouldn’t know.
Yet the four people were all overjoyed, even slightly agitated, the man even asked anxiously, “Fellow Daoists, we have a presumptuous request, could we ask that you give us a fish monster, we can pay money, even if it’s double the price.”
