Delicious Delicacy of the Demon Spirit

Chapter 40 Oxtail Casserole

When Li Kuer heard He Weiran ask about the origin of the meat, he had a bad feeling in his heart.With a roll in her throat, she replied, "It should be Boss Dong's butcher shop..."

He Weiran was puzzled, and asked again: "What should it mean?"

Li Kuer was even more uneasy, as if he had done something wrong, his voice weakened a lot, and he recounted everything that happened this morning.When He Weiran heard the words, he narrowed his eyes slightly, as if he had a guess in his heart.

"Sister He, is there something wrong with this meat?"

He Weiran nodded, found a basin of water, took a knife, cut his finger, and dripped blood into the basin.Seeing this, Li Kuer was in a hurry, and hurried over to see how deep the wound was, but when she took a closer look, there was no scar on her finger, and it was clear that there was no blood.He Weiran smiled, patted Li Kuer's head and said, "It's nothing."

Li Kuer was relieved, and after a little thought, he felt that there was no need to make a fuss about how such a powerful person as He Weiran would be injured by a small sharp blade, but what is the use of this drop of blood in the basin?

He Weiran didn't explain too much, just took the pork belly and threw it into the water, after a while, the water in the basin boiled, making a hissing sound, but the pork belly in the boiling water was completely useless Ripe means that it is still as fresh and tender as before.Gradually, a black spot gathered on the fleshy skin, and the black spot became bigger and smaller, followed by a burst of black air, and then disappeared.

"What's going on here? Those black things..." Li Kuer asked in surprise.

He Weiran looked solemn, and said: "I'm afraid it's the resentment of the monster. By the way, you went to buy meat twice, is there any discomfort?"

Li Kuer blinked, wondering what kind of discomfort this was referring to.He Weiran looked at her for a long time without understanding, grabbed her by the shoulders and turned her around, no matter how hard he looked, he couldn't see anything wrong.

"Ah, I remembered!" Li Ku'er suddenly realized it when she was dizzy, she widened her eyes and said, "I took a nap yesterday and had a nightmare."

"Nightmare? What did you dream about?" He Weiran raised her eyebrows, and Li Kuer felt that she was thinking that her nightmare must have nothing to do with the monster's resentment.

"I dreamed of you..." She just wanted to tell He Weiran the dream truthfully, but she suddenly realized that she was ashamed to say those things.If this is said, even if He Weiran doesn't think she is petty, he will laugh at her.Li Kuer clenched his fist secretly, but luckily stopped it in time, and continued: "I dreamed of you... Xiaoqu... Ah Chu... Ah Liao... Xiao County Master..." Li Kuer glanced at it He Weiran: "Prince...Princess... Anyway, there are a lot of people, and there is nothing to be happy about in a mess. Later, Lord River God came and said that I was haunted by a nightmare, and then I woke up."

What Li Kuer said was half true and half false, He Weiran was half convinced when he heard it.She felt that Li Kuer's speech was incoherent, and she always felt that she was hiding something, but since she didn't want to go into details, she was afraid that it would be embarrassing to speak out.But regarding the appearance of the river god A Yan, it is still necessary to ask clearly.

"What did the River God come to see you for?"

Seeing that He Weiran didn't ask about the dream, Li Kuer breathed a sigh of relief and said, "She came to urge me to ask for zongzi, but she came to my dream when she saw that I was trapped in a nightmare. By the way, She also gave me a glass of water, which glows and is different from ordinary water. After I drank that glass of water, I didn't want to cry...uh...sober."

He Weiran laughed when he heard the words: "It seems that we have to thank Lord River God properly."

At noon, the prince and the others still didn't wake up.The prince had to take on the responsibility and asked someone to invite Dr. Mao from Chuancaotang.The little county owner was busier than anyone else. He ran to the princess's room for a while, then ran to the prince's room, and then ran to the three princesses' rooms. Seeing them half asleep and half awake and struggling in pain, he was so anxious. I cried several times.

He Weiran made lunch for the two of them, but neither of them had any appetite. The maids persuaded the little county master for a long time, but the little county master couldn't resist, and saw that the dishes looked quite delicious, so he ate some.

Later Doctor Mao came, followed by Fang Hancai who was carrying a medicine box.After Xiaoqu heard the news, she took Li Kuer to the front yard to see them being treated.Li Kuer thought, could it be that the two are getting better again?It's fickle.

In fact, Dr. Mao didn't take much time to diagnose the disease. He only glanced at it briefly, then shook his head and said, "Forgive me for being old and incompetent. There is nothing to do about this disease. It's a strange thing to say. I have suffered from this strange disease for the past two days. There are indeed a lot of people, and the symptoms are exactly the same as those of the prince. At this moment, there is one delivered yesterday in the old man's shop. Why don't you send someone to feed them some porridge and soup first, and send someone immediately after the old man prepares the medicine. Send it to the house."

Hearing the words, the son was helpless, sighed, and said: "In this case, there will be Dr. Lao Mao. Housekeeper, see off the guests."

Dr. Mao left in a hurry with Fang Hancai, and Fang Hancai flirted with Xiaoqu when he went out.Li Ku'er felt creepy, if she had to do such a nasty thing when talking about feelings, she realized in a daze that she might not be able to find a partner.In fact, it's okay if you can't get married...Anyway, there is sister He.Li Ku'er covered her mouth and smiled secretly, not knowing if she took this seriously.After all, it is too absurd and daring to not marry for the rest of your life. It should be done after careful consideration, and it should not be decided so easily.

She ran to tell He Weiran what Dr. Mao had said in a doggy manner.He Weiran was wrapping zongzi, hearing the words, the expression on his face did not fluctuate at all, and said: "So, many people in the town were victimized by the monster's resentment and trapped in dreams?"

Li Ku'er nodded: "It's so dangerous, if Lord River God hadn't rescued me, I might still be having nightmares at home and no one would have noticed."

He Weiran disagreed with her statement, shook his head and said: "Even if there is no Lord River God, I will find you."

Li Kuer rubbed the back of her head embarrassingly: "Hehehehe, I knew that Sister He is the best."

He Weiran narrowed his eyes in satisfaction, and said again: "But having said that, according to what you said, Lord River God should be able to save those who are disturbed by the nightmare. I didn't expect that the account of a hundred zongzi could be settled so quickly. It's back."

Li Kuer raised his eyebrows with a clear expression: "That's right! Let Lord River God figure out a way!"

About half an hour later, a hundred zongzi came out of the pan.According to the instructions of the river god A Yan, the two packed the zongzi in baskets and carried them back to Li Kuer's home.It was approaching the Mid-Autumn Festival, and the scorching sun in the afternoon was consuming the last bit of heat, but Aoi was still shining brightly. As soon as the master came back, she waved to show her favor.

Putting the basket by the well, Li Kuer and He Weiran threw the zongzi into the well one by one, making a thumping sound, as if they were being thrown into the belly of a tiger.After one hundred rice dumplings were thrown away, Li Kuer lay down by the well and shouted down the well: Sister Ah Yan, have you come to get the rice dumplings yet? "

"I got it, I got it!" The river god Ayan's joyful voice came from the bottom of the well.

Li Kuer shouted again: "Then you come out, Sister He wants to see you."

As soon as the voice fell, there was a whistling sound, and a puff of white smoke rose from the well.Li Ku'er immediately took two steps back and went to He Weiran's side.

"Miss He, the skill of making zongzi has improved again." River God Ayan took a disassembled zongzi in his hand, and took bite after bite.

He Weiran smiled: "It's an honor, as long as Miss Ayan likes it."

"By the way, you came to me, did you think of what you need?"

"That's right, I would like to ask you for help." He Weiran nodded and said, "I would like to thank you for helping Ku'er yesterday, but in the past two days, many people in Qingshui Town, like her, were haunted by nightmares and couldn't wake up. .”

"What do you mean, you want me to help them?" The River God Ayan raised his chin with his lips pursed, as if he was thinking about whether it would be a good idea to do so. After a long while, he said, "I didn't expect Miss He to be such a person who cares about the world." , wouldn’t it be better to ask for something else? For example, high-quality kitchen utensils, rare ingredients, or aquarium recipes.”

He Weiran brushed the hair around his ears, and said with a light smile, "Cooking is what I like, but it's not what I want. In contrast, it's more important to save Prince Qiao, who gave me my wages."

River God Ayan really didn't understand her: "Why are you unran and how can you be a person who is restricted by such a mere salary? But that's all, since you insist on doing this, I have no reason to persuade you to change your mind, after all, this matter is worth it." I earned a hundred delicious rice dumplings, but unfortunately, I won’t be able to eat such delicious rice dumplings for a long time, so I have to save some money.”

"Where are you going?" He Weiran asked directly.

"Ha, I won't say it! It's no good for you to know, so don't ask." The Lord River God laughed, and changed the subject: "I will melt the Xinshen Water into the rivers and rivers in Qingshui Town in a while. In the well water, as long as the people drink the water, they will wake up. By the way, there is one more thing, I promised Miss Ku’er.” She spread her palms, and a flash of spiritual light flashed in her palms out of thin air. A small bottle with a narrow neck, which is the size of a general medicine bottle.

"Here, what I promised last time, spiritual water. You use it to water that flower, and water it in the middle of the day, for seven days in a row, and it will be effective."

"It works? What effect?" Li Kuer took the small bottle, wondering if this small bottle of spiritual water would be enough for seven days?

The river god Ah Yan smiled mysteriously, but said goodbye to the two without saying anything, saying that they would not see each other for a long time and would miss them even more.He Weiran and Li Kuer looked at each other, and agreed that she would miss Zongzi even more...
