Chapter 40: Boiled Fish
Lan Liuyan was embarrassed to find out that she and Xuan Yi lost.
It is not worth regretting too much about losing the other party, after all, he is a scheming, despicable and shameless demon cub.
But when Lan Liuyan found out that she was lost, she couldn't calm down.
This was originally no wonder Lan Liuyan. After all, the cave is well connected and dark, so even if you are not a fool, you will get lost.
Besides, Lan Liuyan is a little bit crazy.
Well, even if you are obsessed with the road, it is understandable. Then when Lan Liuyan realized that she was hungry, she felt sincerely unhappy.
As mentioned earlier, she really wants to eat boiled fish.
This is a cave in the river, and there is no shortage of fish, but boiled fish in water is not called boiled fish in water. At least, Lan Liuyan must have a pot first.
The pot alone is not enough, she needs more seasonings, especially the pointed red peppers.
Thinking of this, Lan Liuyan felt even hungry, and because of the smell of pepper, he secreted more saliva in his mouth, and he felt more hungry when swallowing into his stomach.
Then Lan Liuyan suddenly realized that this was not an illusion, but that she really smelled the scent of boiled fish.
Boiled fish with green onion, ginger, garlic and cooking wine, and more red and chili peppers.
Lan Liuyan was stunned at first, then became happy.
This was a double joy that made her feel refreshed suddenly.
It is of course a good thing to eat boiled fish, but the person who made boiled fish made Lan Liuyan happier.
There are only eight living people in this forest now. As for this cave, Lan Liuyan knows only one, which makes the girl unhappy.
So she quietly followed the scent, like a little white mouse passing through the maze by smelling the aroma of cheese.
With guidance, even though the road was as crazy as orchids, he quickly found the source of the fragrance.
It was a dry cave with a high terrain, with a high dome, so dark that it was impossible to see the end. On the clearings of the cave, there were a pile of orange bonfires, and the fuel came from withered mushrooms around it.
There was a simple folding pot on the fire, only the bottom of the pot was a thin piece of iron, and the edge of the pot was made of water-impermeable material that was almost cloth-free. Inside were white fish fillets, red peppers, a few torn mushrooms and tender green garlic sprouts.
Then Lan Liuyan saw the person next to the pot.
Xuan Yi was sitting cross-legged by the pot, holding a long wooden spoon and stirring it in the pot. When he saw her coming, the boy who raised his head smiled quietly: "Let's eat together?"
Lan Liuyan swallowed the word "Okay" back into her belly with difficulty, and swallowed it back into her handfuls. She pulled out her spear, and the golden flames burned up, illuminating the entire cave: "I will eat it, but after you die."
Xuan Yi smiled and said, "King Master, do you really think you can still eat me if I die?"
As he said this, Xuan Yi stretched out his hand and made a move to lift the pot, almost letting Lan Liuyan say: "Let go of that pot, what's the point of rushing to me."
But the knight's reserve still overwhelms everything. The girl looked at the pot of fish reluctantly and said, "If you don't eat, don't eat it, you'll kill you."
As she said this, Lan Liuyan was about to try.
In such a narrow terrain, there is nowhere to hide, which is equivalent to falling into a net and catching a turtle in a jar.
But Xuan Yi smiled calmly: "I can't escape anyway, so why not listen to me say a few words."
As she said this, Xuan Yi snapped his fingers lightly. Lan Liuyan heard a rumbling sound behind him, and then the sound of rocks falling. She looked back and found that the passage when she came had been completely blown up, leaving only rocks.
Xuan looked at Lan Liuyan's expression and smiled faintly: "When I came, I brought a total of seven grenades, four of which were used on you, but I still didn't rub a piece of oily skin off, which disappointed me."
"There are three exits here, and I happen to have three grenades."
"If you don't want to talk to me, I can only detonate them all and let you say things to me for the rest of your life."
Lan Liuyan shook her lips, and the flames in her body slowly extinguished.
She had to accept Xuan Yi's threat.
Once Xuan Yi blows up all the exits here, Lan Liuyan, who is not suitable for digging a mountain and digging a hole, will be trapped in this kind of person. Even if she can kill Xuan Yi, she will have to spend the rest of her life with Xuan Yi's body.
Say things to his body for a lifetime.
Xuan looked at Lan Liuyan's compromise and showed a sincere smile. He pointed to the boiled fish in front of him: "Since Lord Knight is willing to talk to me, the demon cub, I will invite Lord Knight to eat the fish first."
Lan Liuyan didn't move at all. She looked at Xuan Yi coldly, and the greedy roar in her stomach could not shake the knight of the Ninth Legion at all.
"I just promised to listen to you."
Xuan nodded, as if Lan Liuyan's reaction was not beyond his expectations.
"I killed Xie Junhao, but I didn't kill Qianli."
Lan Liuyan looked at Xuan Yi in front of the bonfire. He was wearing a pure black tights and a standard dark star demon baby outfit. She smiled contemptuously, not believing in every punctuation that Xuan Yi said.
"Isn't it you killed, can I still kill me?"
Xuan looked at her and shook his head quietly.
Behind him, a lonely female voice came amidst him.
"Sorry, Lord Lan Liuyan."
Qian Ying was wearing a short suit and wearing a blue cloak slowly walked out of the shadow of the hole behind Xuan, with her expression slightly cooled and serious.
"I killed my brother with my own hands."
...
...
Lan Liuyan was still very hungry, but she was no longer in the mood to eat.
She didn't believe in Xuan Yi, but she had to believe in Qian Ying.
Even though Qian Ying is likely to be coerced, now that there are only her and Xuan Yi, who can't tell who is coerced.
Qian Ying told a story that is completely different from Zhao Xingduo's version, a story that is darker and colder.
Lan Liuyan believed Qian Ying’s story without even thinking about it.
Because this is the story that happened in the real world.
Zhao Xingduo's story is full of loopholes, but time makes Lan Liuyan too late to confirm what loopholes. Many doubts in his story are perfectly answered in Qian Ying's story.
But after listening to this story, she was no longer in the mood to eat.
She had already put away her spear, and she lifted up her robe, knelt down solemnly at Qian Ying, prostrating her body.
Her smooth forehead hit the ground tightly and said softly: "I should have gone to kill Xie Junhao and brought his head to apologize to you, but Xie Junhao is dead, so I can only apologize to you for him."
Qian Ying looked at the girl knight who was kneeling in front of her humbly, and couldn't tell what it felt.
Of course, she couldn't say that she hated and vented her anger on this noble girl, but if she was completely untouched, she was also deceiving herself. She was silent for a moment and then said, "I am very grateful to him if someone has helped me with revenge."
Lan Liuyan nodded, then stood up and looked at the boy who had been silent.
"Please forgive me for my constant offense."
Xuan Yi shook his head: "There is no need to forgive, because every time I have the determination to kill you, it's just that you are too strong."
Lan Liuyan smiled.
Then he knelt on one knee to the boy: "I was sorry just now, please accept my respect now."
"You are the real knight."
Xuan Yi was unmoved, smiled and pointed to the still bubbled fish pot.
