Seeing his embarrassed look just now, Xin Yue felt a little funny, and the corners of his mouth curved slightly: "You're welcome."

Chu Zhiling pursed her thin lips and looked at her smiling face without saying a word.

The man thought he was not full yet, so he took the fish and bit it, but this time he moved much slower than last time, chewing it carefully in small bites, fearing that the fish bones would fall into his throat, as the belly of the fish had been bitten out by Xin Yue before.

He made a small tooth mark, and without thinking twice, he was about to bite it.

Suddenly, a long, slender hand appeared out of thin air, snatched the fish from the man's hand, threw it into the sea, and said calmly: "It's enough to eat so much today, be careful of food stagnation."

The man looked at the empty palms, with obvious daze and slight pain in his eyes. The fish was not big at all. Chu Zhiling snatched away half of it and threw it away before he could finish it. He touched his withered belly.

, and then quietly cast his eyes for help on Xin Yue.

At this time, it was getting dark. In the half-darkness, the girl's face had a subtle haze, and her long hair floated like a mermaid swimming in the sea. It was rare for her to take the initiative to talk to Chu Zhiling: "Have you eaten enough just now?

"

Chu Zhiling didn't know what she meant by asking. He was about to reply that he didn't have a good appetite today and didn't need to eat more, but he heard Xin Yue continue: "I'll catch you a bird and roast it. Do you want to eat it?"

There was a bright light in Chu Zhiling's star-like eyes, and this girl finally knew that she was good to him. For some reason, he glanced at the handsome man lightly, showed an almost triumphant smile, raised his eyebrows, and then said to Xin

Yue said: "I'll catch the food, and my wife will bake it."

He glanced at the man again and deliberately emphasized the word "madam".

Xin Yue seemed to have guessed what he was thinking. Perhaps because she was in a good mood today, she actually smiled at him for the first time: "You can boil some fresh water here. Anyway, the bird is immobile at night.

All I have to do is reach out."

"Then let him go." Chu Zhiling pointed at the man and said.

Whenever Chu Zhiling used such a commanding tone, Xin Yue could vaguely catch the look of resistance on the man's face.

The man in green patted the sand on his body and walked on the soft beach under the rising moonlight.

After a while, he caught a white seabird and came back. It was quite big. Chu Zhiling said calmly: "Plug it out for me."

Xin Yue raised his head and said to the man, "Just give me the bird."

Chu Zhiling frowned slightly: "Is Madam so reluctant to ask him to do things?"

Seeing him like this, Xin Yue wanted to laugh but held it back. He coughed and said, "Today I'm going to make a beggar bird. It's more delicious if I don't pluck out the feathers." Although her expression was as pale as ever, her eyes were still under the moonlight.

There was a faint smile in the eyes that were dark and seemed to sparkle with amber luster.

Chu Zhiling feigned anger: "Okay, so you are teasing me."

Xin Yue's eyes turned extremely dull in a blink of an eye: "I didn't say anything, and I didn't do anything."

She took the white bird from the man in green, cut off the bird's claws with a sharp metal piece, made a small opening about 3 cm long under the bird's left armpit, neatly dug out the internal organs, and took out the bird's trachea and esophagus.

, because her body was still weak, she slowly walked to the seaside not far away and washed away the blood. After the water was dried, she wrapped a layer of soft mud on the bird's body, and left after a while.

He came back and threw a large ball of mud wrapped in a bird into the fire that was burning in front of Chu Zhiling.

In fact, this is how to cook beggar's chicken. Chu Zhiling has traveled all over the country for so many years, but he has never seen anyone cooking this way. He couldn't help but frown slightly and asked with a slightly critical look: "Madam, what is this? Can it be eaten?

?”

It’s no wonder that he didn’t know that although the beggar chicken had a small period of prosperity in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties, it failed to spread far and wide among the people due to geographical restrictions. In the late Qing Dynasty, Emperor Qianlong made a private visit to the south of the Yangtze River in private.

When he accidentally wandered into the wilderness, a beggar happened to give the beggar's chicken, which he thought was a delicacy, to Emperor Qianlong. After eating it, Emperor Qianlong thought it was a delicacy in the world and praised it. It was under the emperor's golden mouth that the beggar's chicken became widely known and famous in later generations.

.In any case, it should be the situation in the Ming Dynasty now, so it’s not surprising that Chu Zhiling doesn’t know.

Xin Yue replied lazily: "Well, it's poisonous and can't be eaten."

Chu Zhiling smiled, knowing that she meant what she said.

The large lump of mud buried in the fire of dead leaves slowly solidified. Because the bird was relatively large among birds, it took a long time to roast it. After about an hour and a half, Xin

Yue Cai used a wooden stick to pull out the mud, and when it cooled slightly, he knocked it. The bird's feathers fell off naturally, and a warm and delicious fragrance suddenly emerged from the mud shell, infiltrating the heart and lungs in strands, and captivating people.

The index finger moves greatly.

Xin Yue looked at the two men in front of him and said, "What are you doing so stupidly? Do you want me to get it for you? If you want to eat it, just break off the meat yourself."

Chu Zhiling smiled, broke off a large piece of meat, and after eating it, he praised: "The aroma is fragrant, the taste is delicious, and it leaves a lingering taste in your lips and teeth. Madam, what a good craftsmanship."

At this moment, Chu Zhiling looked at the man in green who was also biting into the bird meat. He ate very quickly, as if he was afraid that others would come to snatch his food again. In an instant, Chu Zhiling understood that Xin Yue was making this roasted bird.

The reason for eating was not that she wanted to cook it for him, but for this man who didn't have enough to eat.

Suddenly feeling uninteresting, he ate the bird meat in his hand and stopped trying to break the meat off the bird.

"Don't want to eat?" Xin Yue asked.

When Chu Zhiling saw Xin Yue taking the initiative to talk to him, with a hint of care in his eyebrows and eyes, he suddenly felt that the remaining meat in his mouth had a wonderful fragrance on his lips and teeth again, so he hesitated and planned to take another bite, but saw that

Xin Yue turned to the man and said calmly: "He doesn't want to eat, so just eat it all."

What kind of bullshit care, he must be blind. Chu Zhiling suddenly stood up, his tall body covering the moonlight above Xin Yue's head, his voice was awkwardly cold: "You guys eat slowly, I'll go back first

Go to sleep."

Xin Yue nodded, raised his eyes and said, "Well, have a good rest."

In normal times, Chu Zhiling would have been very happy to hear Xin Yue's soft words, but now he just wanted to lift the man up and beat him up, and carry Xin Yue back in a big way.

But he didn't do this. When he thought that Xin Yue would say that he would only use violence to solve problems, and that he was a complete pirate who used his power to overwhelm others, he felt slightly annoyed in his heart. He thought that he would take her away by force.

, his pride does not allow it.
