Chapter 408: Xiao Ji treats guests, distinguished guests come to the door
Mao Qi looked at her in surprise and did not dare to continue talking.
As night slowly fell, many neighbors were surrounded, their eyes full of longing and their mouths drooling.
Feeling the hot eyes of her neighbors, Xiao Ji felt proud as never before. At this moment, she finally realized what confidence is.
"Brother Maoqi, can I invite them?" Xiao Ji asked Maoqi, looking forward to the gratitude of his neighbors.
"Don't be busy, let's wait until the meat is cooked." Mao Qi tore off a piece of barbecue and let Xiao Ji taste it first, then said slowly.
Xiao Ji took the barbecue and smelled the refreshing aroma. He couldn't wait to put it into his mouth and chewed it with relish. The smell of the meat and the texture of the meat were intertwined, making Xiao Ji freeze in place as if his soul was out of body.
Seeing Xiao Ji's expression, the neighbors' hearts were like cat's claws, and their desire for meat instantly increased to the extreme. Some people even began to think about how to eat some meat in exchange.
The middle-aged manager had just returned from hunting when he smelled the fragrance and saw everyone gathered around him, so he moved forward curiously. After seeing the scene in front of him, he felt mixed emotions in his heart. He did not expect that half a month ago he would have to devote himself to his little one.
Ji, half a month later, he was able to turn around. Thinking of his previous behavior, the middle-aged manager felt a little ashamed.
"Alas, things are fickle." The middle-aged manager sighed. After all, he was considered the leader of the living area. He was asked to beg for a bite of meat. He really couldn't explain it, so he could only reluctantly prepare to leave.
Suddenly, Xiao Ji's voice came. In the past, he would have chosen to ignore it, or even be disgusted with it, but now it made him stop in anticipation.
"Dear neighbors, if it weren't for you, I wouldn't be alive now, and I wouldn't have the chance to meet Brother Maoqi. Today we roasted two pigs and dolphins and cooked several pots of broth. Everyone can open their bellies and eat.
"
Xiao Ji's voice became the most beautiful sound in everyone's ears. Everyone took a few steps forward uncontrollably and then stopped. When the temptation was raised to the extreme, everyone felt awe in their hearts. This kind of awe
, is caused by the lack of respect in the past.
Seeing that no one dared to step forward, the old man who had failed to bully Xiao Ji stood up with a big smile and walked forward in a swaggering manner. Although his movements were exaggerated, he could not hide his inner nervousness. He pointed at the meat tremblingly.
After a long while, he said loudly with all his strength: "Give me a piece of hind leg meat."
Looking at this guy who had bullied him, Xiao Ji felt resentful in his heart, but he had already said it out. If he didn't give it, he would be spurned; but if he did, he felt uncomfortable.
In fact, Mao Qi knew very well how Xiao Ji and everyone else felt. They were all restricted by the rules of Laizhou Island and were restraining their desires.
Mao Qi tore off a piece of the least nutritious piece of meat and handed it to Xiao Ji. Xiao Ji understood and handed the piece of meat to the old man.
"Here you go, just take it. If you don't want it, don't block other people's way." The old man was about to speak, but Xiao Ji's face immediately darkened, and his tone of voice was particularly cold.
Everyone felt that the old man's picky behavior was unreasonable; but Xiao Ji's words felt reasonable. But the old men really got the meat, so they rushed forward, even those who had bullied Xiao Ji.
The man couldn't resist the temptation in the end, and soon a pig weighing more than 500 kilograms was eaten clean.
At the same time, a gorgeous ship moored at the port of Laizhou Island, and seven or eight people got off the ship. They all had serious expressions and proud movements. The port guard was also very polite to this group of people.
"Junior Sister Ling, you first lead the team to contact the Laizhou Island City Defense Department. I will go to investigate the situation here first, and then I will come back to you." As soon as he finished speaking, he disappeared in front of everyone.
"Yes, Senior Sister Junxiao." Even though the person had disappeared, a respectful answer still came from behind her. And the person who answered was none other than Jiang Yangling, who had returned from Bai Snake Valley.
This group of people is a special inspection team sent by Penglai Pavilion. The leader of the team is named Jiang Yang Junqi. He is twenty-seven years old and at the fifth level. He is one of the core disciples of Penglai Pavilion. The purpose of the inspection is to declare the management authority of Penglai Pavilion.
At the same time, it is also to find out in advance the strength of other young people in Penglai City defense and prepare for the Penglai Pavilion Martial Arts Tournament.
The reason why Jiang Yang Junqi left early was not to conduct a secret investigation, but because she smelled the aroma of barbecue that haunted her.
Looking for the scent, Jiang Yang Junji quickly found the living area. He saw a group of people in rags sitting around and feasting together. He stopped involuntarily and hesitated in his heart. After all, his identity was not the same as theirs. But it was very difficult.
Quickly, under the temptation of the smell of meat, he gave up his so-called identity.
"Is there anyone there?" Afraid that they wouldn't be able to hear, Jiang Yangjun used a little bit of realm energy to shout loudly.
But as soon as she finished speaking, countless eyes fell on her. There were one or two hundred people here, but she actually asked such an arrogant question.
Sensing the energy fluctuations in the other party's voice, Mao Qi instantly knew that the visitor was something special. He quickly stood up and replied loudly: "The visitor is a guest. I am entertaining my neighbors with barbecue. I wonder if you can give me a favor."
Hearing Mao Qi speak, the crowd suddenly became quiet. Jiang Yang Junqi originally wanted to come to eat barbecue, but he didn't expect to be invited before he even opened his mouth, so he walked towards Mao Qi while replying.
Seeing that the other party was dressed gorgeously, had a handsome appearance, and had an aura that was hard to get close to, I was immediately dumbfounded.
"Jiang Yangjunxiao, I'm sorry to bother you because I encountered a storm and delayed my trip." Jiang Yangjunxiao generously announced his home address and came to Mao Qi with elegant and confident steps.
When they heard that the other party's surname was Jiang Yang, everyone was so frightened that they almost fell to their knees. You must know that those who can bear the surname Jiang Yang are all upper-class figures.
"It's better to come early than to come in time, please." Mao Qike said without so much pressure, neither humble nor overbearing.
"You are a guest when you come, so you don't have to be polite." Jiang Yangjun's words were deliberately spoken for everyone to hear.
As soon as these words came out, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, but their eating became much more civilized and restrained.
Looking at the crispy red roasted pork, Jiang Yangjun couldn't help but swallow a sip of water, and Xiao Ji had already brought up the carefully selected barbecue.
Jiang Yangjun was not polite, took the barbecue, tore off a piece and put it in her mouth. She was instantly conquered by the crispy and tender texture of the barbecue, and she couldn't stop. The strong appetite filled her with the taste of memories, and she felt extraordinarily satisfied.
satisfy.
The barbecue the neighbors had just received was obviously not enough to eat. They could only look at the steaming pots and another roasted pig, but because of Jiang Yangjun's presence, they did not dare to step forward.
