Xiang Shen felt quite novel.

In less than half a year, I was actually able to sit and have a barbecue with the head of a planet. It was really a dreamlike scene.

"That, Your Majesty," over there, a few researchers approached, with longing in their eyes, "Can we taste it together? We also watched the live broadcast yesterday, and the taste is really..."

The researchers were a little short of words, so they laughed a few times in embarrassment.

But the Dragon King certainly understood, and readily agreed: "Let's go together."

"Wait a minute," Xiang Shen said, and he counted the heads, "One, two, three... six, seven, there are so many people, why don't we eat hot pot?"

"Hot Pot?"

Xiang Shen grinned: "The way of eating passed down by the ancestors is the most suitable for deepening the relationship."

There is no hot pot base on Zulongxing, so he can only roll up his sleeves and make it himself.Fortunately, there are enough ingredients, and there is a cooking accelerator. After a while, the simple version of the hot pot bottom material is out of the oven.

He carefully commanded the robot, brought the broth to the banquet hall of the Dragon Palace, and then poured it into the mandarin duck pot that had just been made——

With a sound of swish, the heat rose and the white mist was boundless.

One side is the bottom of the fungus pot with milky white luster, and the other is the bottom of the spicy pot with red peppers floating on it. The soup on both sides is gurgling and rolling in the pot, which makes people move their index fingers and feel hungry.

At the table, a tall and thin researcher pushed his glasses, leaned forward, and stared at the hot pot with probing eyes.

"Is this for soup?"

"No, how is it possible," the colleague next to him retorted, "The red soup over there is too spicy, so it can't be for drinking."

Another asked: "Why put dead leaves and bark in the soup?"

At this time, the Dragon King also put down his airs and changed into casual clothes. Even if a tall man nearly two meters tall sat down, he would still be a head taller than a normal person.Hearing this question, he pretended to think deeply for a moment: "Maybe because it is edible?"

"No, they can't be eaten." Xiang Shen said helplessly, "These are not withered leaves and bark, but fragrant leaves and cinnamon bark, which add freshness and flavor to the hot pot."

Behind him, robots lined up and started to serve dishes. Fat beef rolls, tender lamb meat, tripe, duck blood, bamboo shoot tips, shrimp slippery... There were so many beautiful things in sight that everyone in the room was dumbfounded.

Ying Sheng, who had been gloomy all the way to the end, finally calmed down now. Although he still insisted on sitting in the seat closest to Xiang Shen, his attention was also attracted by these strange ingredients——

"what is this?"

He looked at the limp thing on the plate that looked like a hedgehog with a strange expression on his face.

"Hairy belly," Xiang Shen answered generously, "it's the stomach of a cow."

"……vomit."

Ying Sheng let out an unbearable protest, and immediately pushed the plate to Xiang Shen's side: "Is this thing edible?!"

"Of course, it's delicious!"

Talking to Shen, he divided the meat in half and put it in the pot in batches.He explained to everyone: "The so-called hot pot is to cook the ingredients yourself, and then pick them up and eat them when they are almost cooked. Come and try them all. If you can eat spicy food, choose red soup, and if you can't eat it, choose clear soup. Don't worry, the taste is absolutely delicious." !"

A table of people, you look at me and I look at you, looking at each other.

In the end, it was the Dragon King who set an example first.

He laughed and picked up his chopsticks: "Okay, then I'll give it a try."

Xiang Shen stared at him intently: "..."

Your Majesty, if you don't smile so ugly, I can barely move you.

The Dragon King first cautiously scooped up a piece of fat beef in clear soup, dipped it into Xiang Dali's saucer, and carefully put it into his mouth——

Everyone: stare~

"Huh." The tall man closed his eyes and let out a long sigh.

Then, without saying anything, he stretched out his chopsticks towards the red soup pot without hesitation!

This is a big blow. Originally, these researchers, who were called the pillars of the country, had a very good relationship with the Dragon King. Seeing his behavior, what else do you not understand?

Grab it!

For a time, the dining table was like a battlefield, flying chopsticks were like shooting stars, and the Eight Immortals crossed the sea, each showing their magical powers.

Ying Sheng, a kid who can't be dragged normally, is actually soft and kind-hearted (Xiang Shen Yu), how could he possibly win over this group of devils who usually fight for scientific research funding?

In just a few seconds, the plate of fat beef that had just been put into the pot was swept away, and there was not even a bit of scum left.

Ying Sheng just stretched out his chopsticks: "..."

Xiang Shen looked at him lovingly, and with his many years of single hand speed, he grabbed a little for His Royal Highness: "Your Highness, it's okay, you still have me." It won't make you hungry.

The Dragon King over there may have been overwhelmed by the spicy red soup, his face flushed suddenly, and he coughed desperately.

Ying Sheng glanced at Xiang Shen quickly, and pursed his lips.

"……thanks."

But when he looked down, he found that lying quietly in the bowl was a piece of hot——

Hairy belly.

His face turned green.

Say to Shen Yizheng: "Don't look down on Maodu, Maodu is the soul of hot pot!"

"..." Ying Sheng twisted his face, and poked the ugly, tasteless flake with disgust.

Xiang Shen couldn't stand it any longer. He remembered the rows of holes that the old man had ruined when eating steak, so he simply picked up the piece of hairy belly, handed it to his mouth, and coaxed: "Come on!" Well, Your Highness, it’s really delicious~”

His Majesty the Dragon King just went down and didn't raise his anger, his eyes turned white from choking, he beat his chest and said, "Water! Water!"

A group of robots were running around in a hurry, and two of them collided with each other on the way, and a string of small pink hearts appeared on the screen in unison.

But at this moment, in Yingsheng's world, there was no room for other people.

He stared at the hairy belly, raised his head, looked at Xiang Shen without blinking, and then, with a heroic expression, swallowed it in one gulp.

Xiang Shen said to Shen secretly, why don't you look at it to see me when you eat, I'm not a hairy belly.

Feeling flustered, I was about to take back the chopsticks.

...can't pull it out.

Withdraw again!

Still can't pull it out.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince deserves to be called His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, to be able to perform such a must-have trick for elementary school students to eat like eating chopsticks!

Under Xiang Shen's glaring gaze, Ying Sheng reluctantly let go, chewed twice, smash it.

The taste is crisp and tender, full and sweet, chewy and chewy. The juice of the mushroom soup is rippling between the lips and tongue. It is very hot, but it is also rich and delicious.

Swallowing with a thud, the young man looked at Xiang Chen anxiously: "Take another bite."

Xiang Shenhui gave him a blank stare: "It's cooking, it's not ready yet, wait."

Cyan prawns lined up and jumped into the pot, and after swimming around, they were flushed and fished out. The color was very gratifying; gluten balls and shrimp balls floated on the turbulent broth together, ups and downs; and the most sought-after Meat—basically the first time it is cooked, it will be snatched up by everyone.

The quality of Dragon Palace’s ingredients must be top-notch. The tender and creamy lamb meat melts in your mouth, the taste of fresh vegetables is unparalleled, and the aroma of beef and broth is overflowing, attracting followers in the corridor to flock here.

They drove the robot aside, even if they could only drool and smell the smell, they looked happy, really painful and happy.

Xiang Shen ate and ate, feeling something was wrong.

He frowned, and looked at the Dragon King, who was fighting with the researchers, who was blushing and thick-necked: "Your Majesty, have you agreed to talk about business?"

Take a look at the way you are eating from the bowl and looking at the pot, you are a bit over the top!

As soon as the Dragon King's movements stopped, the flesh under his hand was taken away by a quick-sighted researcher, and he was so angry that his nostrils were blown.

"Let's make a long story short, make a long story short," he said quickly, "As we all know, Zulongxing repelled the invading Zerg army more than ten years ago, and Ah Sheng was kidnapped by them at that time and injected A very complicated nanotechnology that is difficult to crack, once something happens to him, the nanorobots hidden in his body will spread to the whole planet, and at that time, everyone will die."

Xiang Shen "hissed" and turned his head to look at Ying Sheng suddenly: "There is such a thing?!"

The young man next to him lowered his head and ate the food in the bowl unmoved. Looking at his indifferent expression, it seemed that he was not the person in the Dragon King's mouth who was carrying a nuclear bomb and could self-destruct at any time.

No wonder, Xiang Shen thought, no wonder the people on Zulong Star feared and revered him while loathing him. Perhaps Ying Sheng did nothing wrong, but when the lives of tens of billions of people are closely related to the life and death of one person , he can only become the target of the public criticism

His eyes suddenly softened.

"Your Majesty, if there is anything I can do to help, please let me know."

Dragon King: "That's for sure. Whether I am the Dragon King or Ah Sheng's father, I am very concerned about this matter... Hulu Hulu... I didn't sleep well for a few days and nights when I was worried, and my hair fell out. A lot... don't grab my meat!"

He quickly tapped his chopsticks on the back of the researcher's hand who was about to repeat the trick.

Xiang Shen looked at the master who never stopped talking expressionlessly, and thought to himself, Your Majesty, you care about the meat in this pot a hundred times more than you care about your son.

"In short," the Dragon King sat upright after eating and drinking, wiped his mouth, and regained his majesty's reserve, "Our physical examination just now found that in the past month, the concentration of nanotechnology in Ah Sheng's blood There was a significant drop. The reason is still unclear, but obviously, Mr. Xiang, you are the biggest variable."

"So?" Xiang Shen looked at him and asked.

Ying Sheng's eyes were also fixed on his father, his hands on the table were clenched unconsciously, and his heart began to pound.

If they wanted to study Xiang Shen in slices, he thought, even if he died, he would never allow it!

"So, we need to conduct an experiment." The Dragon King coughed, looking a bit embarrassed, "I hope that in the next month, you can get along with Ah Sheng personally."

Xiang Shen: "Aren't I already his bodyguard?"

"...It's not that kind, it's a step further."

"what?"

The Dragon King said frankly: "Eat, live and sleep together, of course, it's best to take a bath together."

Xiang Shen: "..."
