I am a hero in online games

Chapter 96 Food Contest ([-])

"lost!?"

He Ergou felt his body tremble when he heard the master say that the purse was thrown in the Gobi, and he almost fell off his horse.

Originally on this trip, He Ergou didn't bring a few taels of silver, and now he has nothing left on him, and the master lost the purse again, which means that he will have nothing to eat before returning to the valley!

"No!" He Ergou dismissed the idea in his heart, "How can a living person be suffocated to death by urine! I don't have any money, so I can sell something, and I always have to eat..."

So, He Ergou looked at Xian Yunzi and himself.

It has to be said that the clothes of the Xiaoyao faction were extremely simple. For a while, He Ergou couldn't find anything to sell.

Thinking about it carefully, I have a lot of treasures on my body: gold-threaded soft robe, pure heart pendant, Xuanbing pill... but none of them are willing to exchange for money...

He Ergou's search was fruitless. It seems that there is no hope for eating. There are no wild game and wild fruits in this kind of place. We can only carry it for a few more days, and we will talk about it when we return to Xiaoyao Valley...

Just as He Ergou was sitting dejectedly on his horse and was about to walk out of the village, he suddenly heard a burst of violent cheers from the crowd who had just been sitting around.

Immediately, a rough voice yelled loudly: "The winner this time is Mr. Niu! All meals and drinks today are free!"

"Eat and drink! Free of charge!" He Ergou suddenly stood up from his horse as if he had received a signal from an antenna.

He Ergou reined in his horse and said, "Master, there seems to be some kind of competition over there. You can eat and drink for free. How about we go and see?"

Although Xian Yunzi was exercising his zhenqi all the way, he didn't feel half hungry, and he also felt that it seemed inappropriate for a martial artist to appear on such an occasion.

But losing the purse is his own responsibility after all, and Xian Yunzi couldn't bear the heart of his apprentice starving with him, so he nodded and walked forward with He Ergou.

He Ergou tied the reins to a small tree nearby and hurriedly jumped off the horse. As soon as he dismounted, He Ergou felt a heartbreaking pain coming from the inside of his legs.After all, he had never ridden a horse in his entire life, and since he had not had time to eat or rest in the past few days, his legs had already worn out a layer of skin.

But at this moment, He Ergou, who was hungry, didn't care so much, so he endured the severe pain and got into the middle of the crowd.

Finally, He Ergou squeezed in with difficulty from the crowd, and saw a long and wide wooden table on the open space, with a huge partition in the middle, and a small chair on each side of the partition.The two sitting in the chair cannot see each other.

There was a mess on the table, and a few waiter-like people moved quickly to clean up the leftovers on the table.

After a while, a few waiters had cleaned up a long table, without any mess and oil stains from just now.

Then, a strong man yelled, the voice was exactly the same as the rough voice just now: "Okay! Gentlemen! The next round of the big eater competition is about to begin! The rules are still the same, two people compare who eats more, and finally The winner doesn’t have to pay a penny, but the loser has to pay double the money! Anyone who wants to participate can take a seat now!”

After hearing this sentence, He Ergou sat on one of the chairs without even thinking about it. After all, he had been hungry for so long, and now he could eat everything from an elephant.

Xian Yunzi stood far away, scanning the crowd from the corner of his eye intentionally or unintentionally, for fear that some people in the world would recognize their master and apprentice. Such a thing would really hurt the face of the Happy School.

Seeing He Ergou sitting on the chair, the strong man yelled: "A contestant for this game is already in place! Let us announce the dishes of this game! There are: sweet and sour carp, Kung Pao chicken (Lu system), Jiuzhuan Dachang, Double Crisp Soup, Pucai in Milk Soup, Nanchang, Yuji Grilled Chicken..."

After hearing the names of so many delicacies, He Ergou felt that his appetite had doubled again. This time, he was sure to win.

The people watching on the side also began to chatter:
"This guy is so thin, can he do it?"

"Look, he just doesn't know how high the sky is! I think the guy who lost the last game also ate more than him!"

"I think I can beat him!"

After all, no one dared to sit on the chair at the other end.

After all, those who lost had to pay double the money. The economic level of the dynasty was very depressed, and the common people were even poorer.

The color mentioned by the brawny man who reported the name of the dish is all delicacies on jade plates, which may add up to two or thirty taels of silver. This money is enough to make most people bankrupt. Even if the whole family sells it, it will not be able to pay for the meal.

It happened that these big restaurant masters from Chang'an City wanted to stage such a match here, which was an ingenious way to make money. Everyone stood on the sidelines to watch the match, but few of them dared to end the match in person.

Suddenly, the voice of the strong man announcing the name of the dish stopped abruptly. Instead, he raised his voice an octave and shouted, "Okay! Another contestant from today also appeared! We will start serving the dishes right away!"

The eyes of the crowd focused on another chair as the strong man yelled, and the pot exploded again:

"Both of them are so thin, it seems that this match is meaningless..."

"I think this man will win, you see he is unkempt, like a starving ghost..."

He Ergou also wanted to see what kind of person his opponent was, but there was a huge partition in the middle of the table, and He Ergou couldn't see what was going on at the other end of the table.

Xian Yunzi really didn't like such noise, and he was afraid that if he stood too close, he would be recognized by his fellow Jiang Hu, so he found a secluded corner far away, and began to sit down and close his eyes to rest his mind.

On He Ergou's side, following the order of the strong man, several young men began to run back and forth non-stop, placing plates of hot meals in front of the two contestants.

He Ergou was very hungry all the way, and at this moment there was finally a delicious food that made people's index fingers move. He Ergou's brain was left blank for an instant, and he took the first dish in his hand. He ate without hesitation.

He Ergou ate hard with his head down, like a wind and a lingering cloud. As long as it was the food that could be seen in front of him, he ate all the food, not even a bit was left on the bottom of the plate.

In a short while, there were already six or seven empty dishes piled aside, but He Ergou didn't feel full at all, and even felt more appetite.

The questioning in the crowd also gradually turned into amazement, and no one could have imagined that this thin-looking young man could eat so violently and terrifyingly.

The strong man also cheered: "The two of this round are really strong, they are evenly matched!"

He Ergou was shocked: He didn't expect that the other party could keep up with his eating speed!

"It seems that I have to show him some real skills!"

Thinking of this, He Ergou simply saved part of his chewing movements, and swallowed in big mouthfuls.
