It was time to eat, and I had only half-reflected on it, but today's meal seemed different from the previous ones. The aroma made me absent-minded frequently, so I decided to continue to reflect after eating.
Everyone walked to the table and stared at the food in front of them in disbelief. Even Liuchi looked surprised.
"Where did the condiments come from?" Liuchi pointed to the braised fish on the leaves that was full of color and flavor.
Yan Xitong sat aside like an old man and said with his inherent arrogance: "As long as I want to do it, there is no reason why I can't do it."
Qi Xuan put down the wild fruits he picked and stared at the fish on the table in surprise: "It's hard not to admire me. How did you do it? Where did you get the oil?"
"The fish oil is in the belly of the fish." Yan Xitong said.
Xia Yan said: "It will make you feel cold if you look at it again."
I found that after being told by Qi Xuan, I didn't dare to look at Xia Yan. I sat in the most inconspicuous corner.
When everyone started to move together, Yan Xitong suddenly said: "Don't move."
There was a collective meal with the extended chopsticks, and everyone looked at him in confusion.
Yan Xitong slapped the six small bottles on the table: "Before eating fish, take these medicines first."
You look at me and I look at you. Everyone is confused. They have never heard that you have to take some pills before eating.
"What is this?" I asked curiously, pointing to the small bottles.
"Ahem...this is the antidote!"
"..." Everyone.
Qi Xuan's chopsticks clattered to the ground, his expression twitching.
Seeing this, Yan Xitong suddenly stood up and showed an expression of "Why are you making such a fuss?" "If you are afraid that I will wait for an opportunity to poison you, just don't eat it."
Qi Xuan quickly picked up the chopsticks that fell from the floor, held them tightly in his hand and said, "What did the Eighth Prince say? It's just that we all want to know why we need to take the antidote?"
The question is about getting to the point, I want to know too.
Facing everyone's curious gazes, Yan Xitong pretended to be reasonable: "That's because the ingredients for making fish are... all poison."
Bang... not only Qi Xuan, but also Yan Xiaoqing dropped his chopsticks. Although Xia Yan held on to the chopsticks firmly, the trembling corners of his eyes betrayed him.
"You mean...this plate of fish is actually poisonous fish?" Qi Xuan pointed at the delicious food on the table with a look of hatred.
Yan Xitong raised his chin: "What are you doing? Are you afraid that I will poison you to death?"
Liu Chi put his chopsticks on the table and made a crisp sound.
"Then let me try it."
"Liu Chi——" I subconsciously reminded that this was no joke. What if I was poisoned to death?
Yan Xitong glared at me fiercely: "You have Bodhisattva to protect you, what are you afraid of?"
I am indeed not afraid, but they... including Yan Xiaoqing, none of them have a Bodhisattva that is immune to all poisons.
But no one stopped Liuchi. I think these people actually wanted Liuchi to die as soon as possible.
Liu Chi elegantly picked up a piece of fish and put it into his mouth. Everyone's eyes were locked on him.
Liu Chi tells us with practical actions that it turns out that one can take poison and be so... so calm and composed, and have such a good temperament.
I'm afraid even Xia Yan can't do this.
"Well, the former king is worthy of being the heir of the divine chef. Every bit of the tenderness of this fish is locked in the meat. Poison is used as an auxiliary seasoning. It is also a masterpiece. A pole on the snow has a sweet taste and quinine.
The poisonous taste is salty, plus the quinine poison that seals the throat when it sees blood...it really has a unique flavor. It would be even better if a bit of seven-star grass is added to increase the aroma."
