Chapter 19: The Midnight Sparrow's Canteen
Marisa's words still had an effect on Ouyang, at least Ouyang was not as anxious as before now, but it was not enough to completely let Ouyang accept it. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Drinking tea in the corridor of Hakurei Shrine, watching Reimu collect bridge tolls from tourists who walked across the Reibashi one after another, and watching Qin Xin walk off the stage and change shifts with Reimu, Reimu walked up to the stage with joy and began to perform Kagura Dance.
As the sun sets and the sky turns red, the tourists who used to fill the shrine return to the earth, and then the night is the carnival of the yokai.
"Reimu, where are you going?" Seeing Reimu change into Kagura's special shrine maiden costume and leave with a set of toiletries, Ouyang asked curiously.
Lingmeng glanced back at Ouyang and continued to walk out while waving his hand at Ouyang.
"There are a lot of monsters coming here at night, it's so noisy that you can't sleep at all. I got to rest and rest in the earthly world. ”
"But this is your shrine, don't you care......?
"There's Cuixiang watching here at night, it's okay. ”
In this way, Ouyang watched Reimu walk past the torii gate and fly away from the shrine, flying in the direction of the world.
A sound of footsteps came from the main hall behind him, and the ghost king Cuixiang wearing a red and white witch costume appeared in Ouyang's sight, and at the same time, there was also a villain princess sitting on Cuixiang's head - Needle Miaomaru, who held a Wanbao mallet in his hand, and could borrow the power of the ghost clan to realize his wishes.
After a brief greeting to Cuixiang, Ouyang left the Hakuri Shrine and walked towards the late-night finch canteen in the Beast Path. Despite its name, Misty couldn't really only be open late at night, and when night fell, her little dining room would start to attract customers.
Count the time, it's almost time for the cafeteria to open.
Walking on the worship beast road, Ouyang had already seen a lot of weak monsters come out to occupy a favorable position, set up their own stalls and began to solicit guests. Some human tourists who were late to the market were attracted by the yokai's stalls and were picking up the goods for the yokai at the stalls.
Walking past the stall, Ouyang glanced at the things sold by the monsters. It didn't seem to be a dangerous thing, so Ouyang didn't care, and it wouldn't be long before the humans on the beast path would return to the human world.
The Kin-no-Sato Garrison has made it clear to all the residents of the Kin-no-Sato that they should try not to visit Hakurei Shrine at night, and that there should be room for yokai to move, even if there is an attractive yokai festival here. At the same time, in order to keep the residents in the human world at night, the six major families will hold human festivals for everyone to participate. It's just that it's not just humans who will participate in the human festival, but also some youkai who are close to humans.
When Ouyang came to Mystia's cafeteria, he found that there were already some customers here. Some of them were human tourists who returned late, and Ouyang met some oriental enthusiasts among them, who were supposed to come specifically to taste the roasted eight-eyed eels of the night sparrows, just like Ouyang's purpose.
The rest of the guests are youkai or inhuman aliens who have come early to occupy a favorable position, such as an honest and honest reporter, an immortal Penglai person, and a half-human, half-spirit court master living in the underworld.
It's just that everyone is not alone, they all have friends who come together.
Most of the seats were already occupied, and Ouyang could only sit at the bar in the cafeteria, but he could observe the cooking skills of Chef Yeque up close, and it was also convenient to order.
asked Misty for a special and delicious roasted eight-eyed eel, and Ouyang slowly tasted it.
To be honest, the taste of eight-eyed eel is not very suitable for humans, this is Ouyang's first feeling. It should be that the original taste of the eight-eyed eel is too unpalatable for humans, but fortunately, Mistia's technology is good enough to adapt to the human taste without losing the original taste of the eight-eyed eel. Although the taste of the first bite was strange, then the unique delicious enjoyment of the eight-eyed eel began to spread in his mouth, making Ouyang can't help but want to eat more.
It's a pity that the eight-eyed eel itself belongs to a kind of demon beast, and its own number is not much. Before the successful breeding of captivity, Misty was limited in the amount she could sell each day, and now that it is the time of the festival, each guest is limited to buying eight-eyed eels. So Ouyang can't buy eight-eyed eels even if he has money now.
"I'm sorry, this guest. ”
"It's okay, hostess. But your skills are really good enough, and the eight-eyed eels can make such delicious food. Ouyang praised sincerely.
Misty smiled happily, she was proud of her craft.
As time passed, the human guests in the store gradually left, leaving only Ouyang as a human guest. However, as far as Gensokyo's situation is concerned, many youkai don't regard Ouyang as a human, after all, Ouyang exudes a non-human aura, and it is impossible for the youkai to treat him as a human.
Seeing that the human guests had all left, Misty carefully set aside the grilled eight-eyed eel, placed another kebab on the grill, picked up a brush and began to spread the secret sauce on it.
Mistya's change of grill attracted the attention of most of the guests, who put down the food they were eating and looked at the barbecue in Misia's hand with sparkling eyes.
After eating a few servings of food he ordered, Ouyang also noticed the barbecue that Misty was cooking.
"It smells good. Hostess, can you give me one too?"
"Okay, wait a minute. ”
Asking Ouyang to wait for a while, Misty delivered the meat skewers that were now grilled to the other guests, after all, they had been waiting for these meat skewers for a long time. After sending barbecue to other guests, there was not much barbecue left for Ouyang, but Ouyang just wanted to taste the taste and didn't plan to eat more.
"Here, Mistian's special, youkai-exclusive secret barbecue, limited supply during the festival. Placing the few remaining meat skewers in front of Ouyang, Misia looked at Ouyang expectantly, waiting for Ouyang's evaluation.
"Then I'll go. ”
Picking up the meat skewer and biting down the first piece of meat, a very strange taste spread on Ouyang's taste buds, not delicious, but not unpalatable. At the same time, Ouyang discovered that the pieces of meat could be transformed into a large amount of blood qi.
After eating the whole skewer of meat, Ouyang could already feel a feeling of swelling his abdomen. It wasn't really a sign of being full, it was just a feeling of replenishing blood and qi with food in a short period of time, an experience that only Ouyang could feel.
Although it is said that it is not delicious, but for the sake of blood, Ouyang still plans to eat all the meat skewers. In Mistia's view, Ouyang's behavior is already a form of recognition, recognizing the taste of barbecue.
"Boss, what kind of meat is this?" asked Misty as Ouyang ate.
"Penglai meat, courtesy of Miss Fujiwara. ”
"Oh, Penglai meat...... Penglai meat!?"
After Ouyang understood what Penglai meat was, he couldn't eat the last skewer of barbecue meat in his hand.
[No wonder this is a youkai-exclusive dish......]
Staring at the meat skewer in his hand, and peeking at Mistia again, Ouyang still finished the skewer of barbecue.
“…… It's delicious. ”
"Thanks for the compliment!" replied Mistia happily.
