The Mapo Tofu was spicy, numbing, crisp and sweet. The moment it entered the soldier's mouth, his eyes widened. His head started to feel numb and the hairs on his body stood erect. At the same time, every single pore on his body widened.

”Oh! My! God!”

The feeling after putting the Mapo Tofu in his mouth was quite strange. It was as though there were thousands of small hands caressing and teasing his whole body. He felt as if his mouth was holding onto a fragrance bomb. His lips nearly lost all feeling, and at the same time, he felt as though the piece of Mapo Tofu was a slab of hot iron on his tongue. Such a feeling was truly indescribable.

He didn't even have the time to chew onto the piece of Mapo Tofu before it slid down his throat. Moving down into his stomach, it gave him a burning sensation.

”It's too spicy! However, there is a kind of sweetness hidden behind the spice.” The eyes of this soldier became moist, as he gasped for breath with this ruddy lips. The tip of his nose became red and he felt as though his whole body was burning up and about to erupt. It was as if he was experiencing the head in the middle of the volcano.

All of the surrounding soldiers anxiously looked their fellow comrade who was the first to eat the Mapo Tofu. They were all curious about the taste of this Mapo Tofu which had an extremely tempting smell. They were ready to devour bowls after bowls of this Mapo Tofu after smelling the aroma coming from it.

The dishes served in the Western Mystery City were mostly spicy and sweet. It was difficult for them to resist the temptation of a spicy dish when it was placed in front of them. However, the only point which made them hesitate to put the food in their mouth was the fact that the Mapo Tofu was prepared with ordinary ingredients.

If this Mapo Tofu was made from spiritual ingredients, they would have already started fighting over it. Moreover, they would fight over it crazily, even if they had to put their lives on the line.

”This taste... Humhum... It's really too sweet!” The soldier who was the first to try the Mapo Tofu already had a numb mouth. The numbness had already made its way to his tongue, and the soldier stuttered in his speech. The intense spiciness of the Mapo Tofu was no joke.

The eyes of the surrounding soldiers immediately brightened. They swallowed their saliva simultaneously as they stared at the Mapo Tofu in front of them. They were like a pack of hungry wolves staring at their prey.

Who cares if it was a spiritual energy dish or not! They only cared whether the dish tastes good. Only fools would miss a good meal.

”Serve me one piece!”

”I'll have a piece too! I was always fond of spicy food.”

”Hurry up and serve me a piece of Mapo Tofu! I can't bear the hunger anymore!.”

Shouts and angry arguments broke out and it echoed continuously. All of the soldiers crowded before Bu Fang as they ordered their Mapo Tofu. They were all excited and couldn't help but shout out their orders. They were unable to resist the temptation any longer after one of their fellow comrades tried the delicious Mapo Tofu in front of them.

They were already at the edge of the endurance when they smelt the fragrance coming from the Mapo Tofu.

Wei Dafu's complexion immediately changed. A disgusted expression appeared on his face. How could this group of people behave like this? Weren't they all soldiers? It didn't matter how good the dish tasted, it was only an ordinary dish made from ordinary ingredients. As long as a dish wasn't made from spirit energy ingredients, it wouldn't be able to improve anyone's condition to their best state. If they were to go into the battlefield in suboptimal conditions, then... It was an important matter which concerned their life and death!

”All of you shouldn't fight over it... It's just a dish made from ordinary ingredients.” Wei Dafu looked at the group of bustling soldiers and he couldn't help but open his mouth to advise them.

”Slurp! What the f*ck? It's so sweet!”

Just when Wei Dafu finished speaking, a soldier beside him swallowed a piece of Mapo Tofu with a slurping sound. The moment he tasted it, he gave a loud shout which caused some of the food residue in his mouth to spray out. Coincidentally, the food residue landed on Wei Dafu's face.

The spicy and numbing feeling instantly affected Wei Dafu. What the f*ck! Wei Dafu's tears nearly flowed out as the spicy food irritated his skin and made it feel as though his skin was on fire.

Running to a corner, Wei Dafu tried to use his hands in order to rub off the food residue on his face. He wanted to get rid of the scalding pain on his face as soon as possible.

Raising his head, he saw the scene before him. His mouth opened wide and his eyes became filled with incredulity.

This...

All of the soldiers' faces were filled with happiness as they narrowed their eyes and gasped for breath. They licked their rosy lips as beads of sweat formed at the tip of their noses.

Wei Dafu had almost never seen such happy expressions on the soldiers' face. Even if they ate the dishes he personally cooked, they were never this happy. Although the soldiers loved to eat the dishes he prepared, they never revealed such a satisfied expression when eating his dishes.

Could it be that... This something tofu was extremely delicious?

At this moment, even Wei Dafu couldn't help but swallow his saliva.

Bu Fang's pottery was quite small, and in a short while, all of his Mapo Tofu was gone. It was served to the hungry soldiers, who had even licked the bottom of their bowls after eating their food.

At this moment, the soldiers which were far away noticed a crowd of soldiers surrounding Bu Fang. They rushed over curiously in order to find out what had happened, and were surprised when they saw the appearance of the soldiers surrounding him.
