Chapter 576: Chapter 180: Where’s the Food?_1

Qin Shou questioned skeptically, "Really?"

The little monk nodded, "Indeed, this humble monk does not speak falsely!"

Qin Shou said, "Then hurry and lead the way, I’ve run so far in one go, I feel like I’m about to starve."

Without dallying, the little monk led Qin Shou around to the back door of the mansion of Fengdu, pushed it open with his hand, and entered.

Once inside the courtyard, the little monk, as if in his own backyard, led Qin Shou through twists and turns to a place that was filled with various delicious scents and the unceasing sound of cooking! With only his toes, Qin Shou knew, they had arrived at the kitchen of the mansion!

The aroma wafting from the windows was all too familiar to Qin Shou. He inhaled deeply, showing an ecstatic expression, and said, "Good heavens... braised five-clawed ginger chicken, stir-fried peacock, simmered swan liver... I can’t, I can’t think about this anymore, I’m hungry!"

After saying that, Qin Shou ran towards the kitchen.

The little monk chuckled and said, "Rabbit, wait a moment, let this humble monk first go in and give instructions, I’ll call you in when it’s time to eat."

Since it was someone else’s treat, Qin Shou naturally couldn’t just do as he pleased, and waited obediently outside.

However, after waiting for a while, he heard a clanging noise from the kitchen, as if someone was fighting. But the noise lasted only a moment and then stopped. Then he heard the little monk’s voice, "Rabbit, come in, this humble monk has made things clear."

Overjoyed, Qin Shou pushed the door open and entered, then he was a bit confused, pulling the little monk aside and asking, "Brother He, are all these cooks panda spirits? Why are their eyes so black and shiny?"

The little monk laughed heartily, "Perhaps, just tell them what you want to eat, it’ll be fine."

Once Qin Shou heard about eating, he immediately perked up, no longer gossiping with the little monk, and confidently said, "Whatever you’ve got to eat, bring it all to me! If I can’t finish, pack it up!"

Seeing this, the little monk smiled faintly, brought his hands together, and silently recited, "Amitabha, you two old bachelors, you’ve brought trouble upon this humble monk. Eating your food, not too much to ask, right?"

Meanwhile, in an elegant courtyard within Fengdu City, within the mansion, two people sat opposite each other, sipping wine and playing chess. A table was placed next to them with bowls and chopsticks, but the dishes were yet to be served.

These two were none other than the Emperor of the Perdition City and the Nether River Patriarch.

"This makes the second round, doesn’t it?" chuckled the Nether River Patriarch, placing a piece on the board.

The Emperor of the Perdition City, without even looking, casually tossed a chess piece and captured a group of the Nether River Patriarch’s pieces, saying, "You’ve come, it’s only right to treat you well. The wine house before was one thing, this is my home. The wine there was good, but the food, ultimately was lacking."

The Nether River Patriarch said, "Heh heh, thanks a lot."

The Emperor of the Perdition City said, "It’s always puzzled me, you’re a fellow who loves food... no... you’re a lord of good food, drink, and revelry, only wanting the best to eat; the best to play with; only top-notch beauties for women... You could be said to be the least like a Sect Hierarch, yet also the most like one leading a heretic sect. All things considered, with how much you love indulging, why turn the vast Nether River into such a desolate place? If I remember correctly, historical texts say that the Nether River was once teeming with innumerable beings, a fine place unto itself."

Hearing this, the Nether River Patriarch forced a smile and said, "Isn’t it because back then I saw Nvwa creating humans, got overconfident, and also tried to create life? Ended up making it too big, and out came a bunch of foul-tempered Asuras. Sigh... let’s not talk about it anymore, not anymore..."

The Emperor of the Perdition City said, "Now, when you want something good to eat, you have to mooch meals. Don’t you plan to put some effort into fixing your Nether River?"

The Nether River Patriarch shook his head and said, "Originally I didn’t plan on it, as anything that went in would be smashed to bits by those youngsters. But now that Rabbit is here, and my cycle of reincarnation has exploded, I have no choice but to consider this issue... Although the species of the Nether River were extinguished, I kept some of their eggs. Moving forward, I’m planning to manage those youngsters properly; they won’t be allowed to kill wantonly anymore... If it really succeeds, well, I guess this would count as a merit, wouldn’t it?"

The Emperor of the Perdition City laughed and said, "Indeed it would, at least in my eyes. If they kill less, the load of my duties would also be lighter."

The two chatted for a long while, and after the Nether River Patriarch upset the chessboard three times, he finally couldn’t bear it any longer and asked, "My old friend, are the chefs you hired all disabled? It’s been two hours, and not even a plate of cold dishes has been served?"

The Emperor of the Perdition City also found it odd. With a snap of his fingers, a person promptly stepped forward and asked reverently, "May I see the Overlord?"

Before others, the Emperor of the Perdition City sat upright, dignified and solemn, and with a casual glance, he said, "Are the dishes ready?"

The person immediately understood the meaning of the Emperor of the Perdition City and quickly bowed, saying, "Your anger may be abated, Overlord. I will go and urge the kitchen staff to see what exactly is going on."

The Emperor of the Perdition City withdrew his gaze, and the person immediately retreated to the door, then closed it and turned to leave the courtyard.

When that servant of the Emperor of the Perdition City arrived at the kitchen, he was instantly dumbfounded...

He saw the chefs of the kitchen one by one beaten black and blue, with tear-streaked faces as they stir-fried various dishes.

At the side was a table, where a jovial Monk sat playing with his Buddha Beads, not eating anything.

Instead, a fat Rabbit sat at the table. The Rabbit gobbled down the dishes with both hands, lifting a plate and pouring the food directly into its mouth! A whole plate of food disappeared into the Rabbit’s mouth just like that...

Then the Rabbit set down the plate, wiped the grease from its mouth with the back of its hand, and said with delight, "Delicious! Little Monk, aren’t you going to eat some? This is really good! Although the cooks’ skills are average, the ingredients are top-notch! Once it gets to the stomach, it turns into surging Yuan Qi, what a nourishing feast!"

The Little Monk shook his head slightly and said, "I won’t eat."

"Why not? Isn’t there veggies?" Qin Shou pointed to the greens on the side and asked.

The Little Monk replied, "You eat without a problem, but if I eat, I’m afraid I’ll be chased around."

Qin Shou didn’t understand and asked, "Why?"

The Little Monk smiled without answering, then glanced at the Emperor of the Perdition City’s servant who had just entered the room.

Upon seeing the Little Monk, the servant was terrified, standing in place, trembling as he pointed at the Little Monk, and said, "You... you..."

The Little Monk said, "Stand there and watch, do not disturb my meal."

The servant almost cried upon hearing this. Inside the house, he could not provoke the one, but outside, the one he could provoke even less! But with the Little Monk forbidding him to speak, he truly dared not speak. So he just looked at the Little Monk with a pitiful gaze...

Seeing this, the Little Monk helplessly waved his hand, and the servant was instantly frozen in place, his vision dimming, unable to see anything, his expression frozen. However, the servant felt a relief; it was much better to be restrained by someone else than to be able to act but choose not to... at least he wouldn’t be blamed by those above.
