Chapter 84 Making a Deal with the Gluttonous Beast
"I want braised pork! I want beef jerky! Get it for me!"
"I don't want to eat these tasteless spirit pigs, I want beef jerky and braised pork!"
"If you don't give it to me, I'll make a scene!"
"..."
Roaring sounds kept coming from the Linggu Cave in front of us.
The mountains shook violently, and even the stones and sand on the ground vibrated.
A disciple from the Miscellaneous Service Peak stood at the cave entrance, looking at the three people in front of him with a fearful expression, and said...
"The Taotie is inside. Go in, but be very careful."
Should he be prepared to call upon the peak master to rescue them at any moment...?
There are no signs indicating this area and you cannot simply enter.
Only the disciples on guard and those delivering food are allowed to approach.
Only the sect leader, elders, and peak masters of the Beast Taming Peak are allowed to come.
People like Yun Ci and Chu Ziming, who were wearing the robes of disciples from other peaks, were even less allowed to enter.
Although Situ Nanhan is a disciple of Peak Master Li, he cannot come to this place casually.
But Yun Ci has a different story because she has the jade token given to her by Peak Master Li.
at this time.
Hearing the shouts inside, Yun Ci gripped Chu Ziming's clothes tightly.
Chu Ziming also grabbed Yun Ci.
The two boys huddled together, holding each other tightly as they walked forward.
Situ Nanhan, equally afraid but forced to walk alone, was speechless.
Situ Nanhan, whose little wolf cub was returned to him by Yun Ci, was speechless.
*
The further in you go, the louder the noise becomes.
The sound of chains could be heard.
Yun Ci walked carefully until she saw the scene before her.
"Aaaaah, I want braised pork!"
"You tricked me into coming here, but where's the meat? Where's the food?"
"I don't eat this junk. If you don't give me braised pork, I'll keep making a scene..."
"If I don't break this formation and these chains, I'll devour you all..."
The Taotie was rolling around on the ground.
Yun Ci blinked.
The Taotie in front of them was not as big as they had imagined; it was even smaller than the elephants Yun Ci had seen at the zoo.
The three boys watched as the Taotie rolled around on the ground.
Some of it is just ridiculous.
However, they could feel the terrifying pressure and the earth-shaking noise.
The three young boys knew that if this Taotie wasn't bound by chains and formations, crushing them would be as easy as crushing an ant.
The gluttonous beast stopped rolling around.
He turned his head to look at the three obedient little boys standing there.
The wicked and cunning eyes paused when they saw the fair-skinned and adorable little boy in the middle.
Then, the Taotie slowly approached.
He tilted his head and looked at Yun Ci.
"Yun Ci, be careful!"
After Chu Ziming pulled Yun away, he took his leave.
Situ Nanhan looked at Taotie warily.
Taotie looked at Yun Ci and narrowed its eyes.
What a pure soul.
I haven't seen such a pure soul in a long time.
It must be delicious.
The meat must taste delicious too.
The glutton smacked its lips.
Yun Ci's eyes widened and she quickly stepped back.
Does it want to eat him?
However, Taotie smelled another scent, and he kept sniffing the air.
Sniffing.
Yun Ci and Chu Ziming ate breakfast in the morning without using a cleansing spell.
There was still a faint smell of breakfast on him.
Taotie sniffed, then looked at Yun Ci, whose scent was even stronger.
"What did you bring? Hand it all over to me! Or I'll swallow you whole!"
Yun Ci didn't answer. Instead, she looked at the Taotie in front of her, a sly glint in her eyes as if she had thought of something. She immediately adopted an expression of adoration and said exaggeratedly,
"Are you the legendary, mighty, and awe-inspiring ancient beast, Taotie? Wow, you're so handsome! So powerful!"
Taotie was stunned, looking at the human cub in front of him with eyes full of admiration.
My heart swelled like never before.
This human brat was particularly pleasing to his eye.
He raised his head.
"Of course it's me, you have good taste."
Yun Ci chuckled to herself, then her expression turned worried.
"But...you shouldn't be locked up here! Can't you go out?"
At this point, Taotie roared to the sky.
"It's all because of these treacherous humans! Humph! When I get out of here one day, I'll definitely crush them all!"
Especially that so-called Immortal Venerable, and the Beast Taming Peak Master who kept deceiving him.
I promised him braised pork, but I haven't given it to him yet!
He won't let a single one escape!
Yun Ci resisted the urge to cover her ears and blinked after hearing Taotie finish speaking.
Hehe, so that means you can't come out?
That would be easy.
Yun Ci retreated a bit more, finding a safe spot.
He took out a small table and three small stools from his storage ring.
Chu Ziming and Situ Nanhan looked at Yun Ci's actions with suspicion.
"Yun Ci, what are you doing?"
"You'll find out later."
The Taotie was also stunned by Yun Ci's actions.
Yun Ci set the table, sat down, patted the table, and looked at Chu Ziming and Situ Nanhan.
"Please come and sit down too."
Chu Ziming's eyes widened. "Yun Ci, are you crazy! That's a Taotie! Let's go!"
Situ Nanhan nodded, "Let's go!"
This is the first time I've agreed with Chu Ziming's words.
Taotie was enraged.
Those Nascent Soul and Void Refinement stage cultivators, who were as strong as monsters, had to kowtow and bow in respect when they saw him, terrified out of their wits.
This mere human brat at the third level of Qi Refining dares to disregard him!
Roar!
Chu Ziming and Situ Nanhan's eyes flashed with fear as they looked at Yun Ci at the same time.
They prepared to rush over, pick up Yun Ci, and carry her out of the cave.
At a time when the atmosphere was extremely tense.
Suddenly, an extremely rich fragrance filled the air.
It smells so good.
When Chu Ziming and Situ Nanhan smelled the aroma of the Taotie, they were both stunned.
Swallowing frantically.
In an instant, the tense atmosphere inside the cave vanished.
Yun Ci sat there, with a shiny, oily pig's head on the small table in front of him, and two large, stewed pork hocks that were tender and falling off the bone.
It was steaming hot and had a wonderful aroma.
Chu Ziming swallowed hard. "Yun Ci..."
Yun Ci?
Taotie was taken aback when he heard the name.
The sect disciple who makes braised pork?
"Hey! You human brat, hurry up and bring me the food on the table!"
From now on, you'll have to cook for me every day, understand? I won't hold it against you this time!
Yun Ci remained silent.
Situ Nanhan gave Chu Ziming a wink.
Upon receiving Yun Ci's signal, Chu Ziming and the other person suppressed their fear and sat down as well.
Taotie was stunned, then roared in anger.
"You dare disobey me?"
Yun Ci took out a large bowl of rice and three bowls and chopsticks from her storage ring.
He filled a bowl with rice and handed it to Chu Ziming and Situ Nanhan.
"Eat up, this braised pork knuckle is so tender, it's incredibly delicious! Just as good as braised pork belly..."
Mmm~it smells so good!
Then pour this broth over the rice, one bite of rice followed by one bite of meat...
Gudong.
The gluttonous beast drooled.
It smells delicious just from the aroma, let alone the taste...
Chu Ziming and Situ Nanhan took a bite and then began to eat heartily from a large bowl of rice.
Yun Ci looked at Taotie.
"Oh, I was going to give this to you, but it seems you don't really want to eat it."
The gluttonous beast roared, "Who said I don't want to eat? Bring it to me right now!"
Yun Ci said, "Then promise me one thing, and I'll give you that whole pig's head, okay?"
Taotie never makes deals with humans.
He has lived for hundreds of millions of years and knows that humans are the most untrustworthy beings in the world.
But seeing the pure and clear depths of the cunning boy's bright eyes...
"You go first, I need to think about it."
"I am arrogant," Taotie said.
Yun Ci blinked. "Don't make a fuss anymore. I'll cook delicious food for you often. Beef jerky, braised pork, braised pork knuckle, hamburgers, fried chicken... I can cook them all."
You have to promise me you won't cause trouble anymore, okay?
Taotie snorted coldly, thinking, "What are you, a mere Qi Refining stage brat, to dare to offer opinions to this great master?"
Yun Ci was somewhat disappointed.
"Alright, alright, alright, stop crying. The last thing I believe in is human tears!"
It's totally fake!
Yun Ci was taken aback.
He didn't cry either.
I was just a little disappointed, wondering what other way there could be to stop the Taotie from causing trouble.
However, since Taotie had agreed, he was relieved.
"You can't cause trouble even once in the future. If I find out, I'll never cook anything delicious for you again! If you cause trouble, Peak Master Li will tell me!"
Remember, not even once!
Yun Ci added, holding up her hand and making a "one" gesture.
Taotie never expected that this little human brat would push his luck so far.
But who would complain when there's good food?
He's making a fuss because the food here is too awful.
He let go of the human brat's rudeness because the food he was cooking was delicious.
Taotie agreed.
"Alright, alright, hurry up and give it to me."
“Yun Ci, you can’t trust it. Taotie often lies. He even lied to Master saying he wouldn’t cause trouble anymore.”
Situ Nanhan said, taking a big bite of the pork knuckle.
Taotie, "..."
He's serious this once, why don't you believe him!
I finally got serious this once.
They don't believe him!
He's going to cause trouble!
Yun Ci reassured Taotie, revealing a smile.
"I believe you."
I'll believe it once, hehe.
Taotie paused for a moment, then snorted coldly.
"Hurry up and give that to me, sir."
Seriously, are those two little brats gluttons? They can eat so much.
We've almost finished those two big pork knuckles!
Yun Ci gave the giant pig's head and a huge bowl of rice to Taotie.
They also taught Taotie to pour the soup over the rice.
Taotie took the food and started eating it in big bites.
There's still a lot of meat on the pig's head.
The pig skin is full of collagen, and the pig head meat is a perfect balance of lean and fat.
In some places, the meat melts in your mouth.
The gluttonous beast devoured the meat, then took a bite of the ear.
When you eat the cartilage, it's crunchy and crunchy.
The glutton was instantly satisfied and lay on the ground, devouring the food in front of it.
On the other side, Chu Ziming and Situ Nanhan were gnawing on pork knuckles.
"Yun Ci, if you're not going to eat this rice, I'll eat it!"
Chu Ziming said.
"Okay, you can eat it." Yun Ci nodded.
He ate a full breakfast.
Chu Ziming chuckled and was about to take it when another hand fell down.
“Situ Nanhan, have you no shame? Yun Ci said he gave it to me.”
"Yun Ci, I want to eat rice too."
"Uh... no more, how about you split it in half?"
"You have more of your half than mine, give me some, hurry up."
"That's too much! I don't have enough to eat!"
Yun Ci, “…”
