She closed her eyes, meaning to ignore everything in front of her, so that the three people would let down their guard.
"Thank you!"
The three of them lost no time and left the prison.
After the three people left, Kujo Sara opened his eyes, looked at the empty cell, and let out a long sigh.
She is the most determined practitioner of General Lei Dian's eternal justice, but in the process of practicing, she feels more and more confused and wonders whether she is on the wrong path.
……
Xiao Gong and others traveled quickly all the way back to Naganohara Fireworks Shop, where they first settled Masakatsu down and brought a doctor to treat him as soon as daybreak.
"Traveler, tonight's rescue operation is all thanks to you. You are really amazing. You alone defeated so many prisoners who tried to stop us."
In front of the Naganohara fireworks shop, Xiao Gong praised Ying Mei sincerely.
"You are also very capable. The fireworks you prepared played a big role. Without it to attract the attention of the jailers, we would never have been able to rescue Masakatsu."
"You are still awesome."
"You are better."
Paimon couldn't stand it any longer, "Stop bragging about yourselves here, you're all great."
Yingmei and Xiaogong smiled at each other, everything was said without words.
After a while, Yingmei asked shyly, "Uh, Xiao Gong, I have a question, why did you reject that guy Ueno Chiki in the first place?"
Xiao Gong was a little surprised and didn't understand why Yingmei suddenly asked this question.
The last time this question was asked was by Kamisato Ayaka, and Kamisato Ayaka obviously had a crush on Chiki.
Could it be that Yingmei is the same?
"Traveler, I rejected Qianshu because I had never considered such a thing as feelings. I had always regarded him as my brother. He suddenly said this to me that day, and I had no choice but to refuse. But later I thought it through."
"What have you figured out?" Yingmei asked anxiously.
"I like Brother Qianshu!"
Chapter 46 Weird Taste Hot Pot
Yingmei and Paimon walked in the night, surrounded by deep darkness and endless silence.
In the distance, a faint light shone through the window of the wooden house and fell into Yingmei's sight. The light was simple and warm, bringing Yingmei an indescribable sense of security in this endless night.
She and her brother once agreed to meet again somewhere in the world, but that was a long time ago.
Although Paimon accompanied her on the journey, she felt less lonely.
But what she wanted more was a place in this world where she could rest forever and someone who loved her would wait for her forever.
Looking at the wooden house in the distance, she seemed to have found the answer.
Soon, Yingmei and Paimeng came to the wooden house and opened the door.
The sound of the door woke up Ueno Chiki, who was half asleep. He rubbed his hazy eyes, yawned, and stood up from the desk.
"Traveler, Paimon, wait for me a moment. I'll make you a midnight snack now."
"Qianshu, hurry up, I'm starving." Paimon urged, covering his stomach with both hands.
Qianshu walked outside, boiled water in a pot, put in the chopped vegetables, and after the water boiled, put in the noodles.
In a short while, the noodles are cooked. Pour them into a bowl, add the poached eggs prepared in advance, and finally pour some seasonings.
The air was filled with the aroma of noodles.
After taking the noodles, Yingmei and Paimon couldn't wait to gobble them up.
"It feels so good!" Yingmei, who was full and satisfied, couldn't help but sigh.
She feels that her life is very happy now. If only it could continue forever.
The next morning.
A servant of the Kamisato family came here and invited them to attend the hot pot celebration banquet held at the Mulou Tea House in the evening, and told them that the theme of the hot pot celebration banquet was strange-tasting hot pot. Everyone had to bring a strange ingredient, and then one person would be randomly selected to be eaten by others.
"Strange ingredients?" Yingmei's eyes lit up. She was familiar with this. During the time she had been with Xiangling, she had eaten all kinds of strange ingredients, from ice mist flowers, slime gel to strange insects and even the wooden sticks of the hillbillies.
A wicked smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.
Whoever draws her ingredients will be in trouble!
When Ueno Chiki saw Yingmei's expression, he had a bad feeling in his heart. According to her personality, the ingredients must be very dark. Since she did this, he didn't need to be so polite.
Paimon also held his chin with one hand, racking his brains, muttering to himself, "Toad meat? Grasshopper, or some weirder bug."
........
night.
In a warm room of Mulou Teahouse, a hot pot was placed in the middle of the dining table, emitting white hot smoke. The hot pot ingredients in the pot exuded an enticing aroma.
Kamisato Ayaka, Toma, Yoshimiya, Ueno Chiki, Yingmei and Paimon sat together.
"Thanks to everyone's efforts, we were able to successfully rescue Master Masakatsu this time. Thank you all for your hard work!" Kamisato Ayaka stood up and bowed to everyone to express her gratitude.
"Ms. Kamisato Ayaka, please don't say that. I am honored to be able to contribute to the Kamisato family, and you have helped me before." Xiao Gong said sincerely.
Yingmei also said: "Yes, Miss Linghua, you don't have to be so polite."
Ueno Chiki waved his hand, "I'm just a bystander."
Thomas turned to Kamisato Ayaka, "Ms. Ayaka, you heard me, right? We are all very nice people, so there is no need to be so polite. Let's just start eating the strange-tasting hot pot."
After he finished speaking, he took out six small wooden signs with each person's name on them and placed them on a tray.
"Everyone takes out their own food first, and then draws a wooden card with their eyes closed. The person who draws the wooden card must eat the food they caught."
Let’s start with Kamisato Ayaka. The ingredient she prepared was a small cake.
"Adding cake to the hot pot, Ms. Linghua, you are so creative."
Xiao Gong's praise made Kamisato Ayaka feel a little embarrassed, "I think it would be delicious if put into the cake."
Although the idea of putting the cake into the hot pot was genius enough, it still did not break through the limitations of thinking, so the rest of the people present just smiled and did not comment.
Thomas brought the tray with the wooden sign with the name on it to Kamisato Ayaka.
Kamisato Ayaka closed her eyes and drew a wooden sign. She turned it over and saw the word "Traveler".
Without saying a word, Yingmei took out the cake that had just been put into the pot and ate it in one breath.
"How about it?"
"Great! I suggest putting small cakes in every hot pot from now on." Yingmei gave a thumbs up, but the twitch on her face betrayed her true thoughts.
Next, it was Xiao Gong's turn, and the ingredients she prepared were candies.
After seeing this, everyone was very disappointed.
"Hey, why do you all have this expression? I've been thinking about this for a long time. Isn't hot pot candy weird enough?"
The person she drew was Paimon.
Paimeng picked up chopsticks and fished around in the pot, but couldn't find the candy that Xiaogong had put in the pot. It turned out that the candy had completely melted in the high-temperature soup.
"Damn it, why didn't I think of this?" Xiao Gong was a little frustrated. She had been thinking about strange-tasting ingredients for a long time, and the result was this.
Next, it was Thomas' turn, and the ingredient he prepared was salted herring.
The normal way to cook salted herring is to slowly fry it in hot oil, which can not only remove the fishy smell inside, but also make the meat taste crispy.
However, if you put it directly in the hot pot, it will not only feel very fishy, but also taste very bad.
Unfortunately, Kamisato Ayaka was chosen.
As she frowned and suppressed her nausea while eating the salted herring, her painful expression made everyone present laugh.
Next, it was Paimon’s ingredients, and she prepared ice mist flowers.
As we all know, Ice Mist Flower is an alchemical material.
At this time, Kamisato Ayaka and Xiao Gong finally understood the correct way to enjoy the strange-tasting hot pot.
Paimon drew Thomas with his eyes closed.
Thomas mustered up the courage to eat the ice mist flower that was still emitting cold air, and felt as if he was in a world of ice and snow.
In the end, only Ueno Chiki and Yingmei were left.
Ueno Chiki smiled slightly and took out a black unknown spherical object the size of a palm.
"I have a bad habit of picking my nose. I never throw away the boogers after picking them. They pile up in one place, and then they keep piling up. Later, I rolled them into a ball. If it weren't for the funny-flavored hot pot today, I wouldn't have been willing to take them out."
Is this booger ball edible? And why would someone be so disgusting as to gather boogers and make them into a ball?
If I really get picked, my life will probably end here.
Except for Chiki Ueno, everyone present was praying to God, hoping that they would not be picked.
Chiki Ueno closed his eyes and grabbed a wooden sign.
When I opened it, it turned out to be......
Chapter 47 I slept with Qianshu
Ueno Chiki looked at Yingmei with a smile on his face, "Traveler, congratulations, you won my booger ball."
In an instant, Yingmei lost all hope, while the others breathed a sigh of relief.
Ueno Chiki put the black ball into the hot pot and began to observe the expression on Yingmei's face.
I saw her face turn pale, then blue, then extremely sad and angry, then gritting her teeth. It was particularly interesting.
Soon, he fished out the black ball from the pot and said, "Come on, traveler."
Yingmei closed her eyes and prepared to face the biggest disaster in her life.
She took a bite of the black ball. It was not as salty, smelly and dirty as she had imagined. Instead, it had a delicate and smooth texture. Combined with the spicy flavor of the hot pot, it was unexpectedly delicious.
