Chapter 85: Temptation

Removing all the meat from the lobster's body and legs is another big task, but it is much easier than the hard work of removing eight pieces of lobster.

Just after the last shrimp meat was removed, the lobster had a misty white glow.

As the light flashed, the shell on the lobster's body gradually shrank to the size of an adult's arm, Qi Zhen raised it and checked it, and the voice of the system sounded in his ears.

"Congratulations on acquiring an epic item, the Skin of the Lama."

Now I don't know what this thing does, Qi Zhen guessed that it might be materials for making equipment or something, so he handed it to Yu Liang and asked him to put it away.

The lobster looks huge, but aside from the heavy shell, there isn't as much meat inside as everyone thinks.

But it's enough for seven people to eat.

Jiang Yan didn't forget to scrape the shrimp brain out, but Li San had been in it before, which made people feel a little awkward.

The power of foodies is powerful.

Before nightfall, everyone finally worked together to clean up the lobster, and Yu Liang didn't even let go of the meat in the shrimp claws, which was really impressive.

The next cooking work also made Qi Zhen sigh in her heart, mainly because Meng Ran was really good at cooking.

I heard Yu Liang and himself say that when he first returned to the preparation hall, Qi Zhen was studying the development outline of the strongest squad inside.

The other team members only completed a formal dinner for all members, and the cooking work was handed over to Meng Ran, and then she showed everyone that she was not inferior to the chef of the hotel.

At that time, Qi Zhen didn't take it seriously, but this time she was really a little convinced of Meng Ran's cooking skills.

The ingredients are simple, and the method is simple. Meng Ran first put the shrimp brain and other shrimp shells into a large pot to boil, and the water was Taihu Lake water, which was made from local materials.

The lobster meat is then cut into small pieces that fit in the mouth and placed in seven large bowls.

I brought vegetables and mushrooms from the local villagers, broke them into small pieces and put them in a bowl.

Add salt to the boiling soup to taste and simmer over medium-low heat until the soup turns a nice milky white.

Crack one or two eggs in the bowl, and monsters like Lin Xiao, who strongly demand to add ten eggs to themselves, will naturally be removed.

The final step is to pour the boiling broth into a bowl filled with various ingredients, and a delicious cross-bridge lobster dish is made.

Everyone smelled the fragrant aroma and watched the originally crystal clear lobster meat gradually become solidified under the hot shrimp soup, like fish balls rolling in the soup.

At this time, not to mention Qi Zhen, who had always seemed to care about enjoying lobster, even Li Qiang and Li San finally couldn't hold back the gluttony in their mouths and came up.

Meng Ran's amount was just right, everyone had a bowl of lobster across the bridge, and nothing was bad.

It's just that this bowl is really bigger.

Looking at a person's eating style, you can generally see a person's style, and this sentence is quite reasonable.

The most gentle one to eat is Jiang Yan, who eats slowly and methodically, afraid of blowing it when she puts it to her mouth.

And then it was Yu Liang, he didn't eat it very quickly, and he even looked a little sven, because he had to bite into every lobster meat from the middle and put it in his mouth in two bites.

Except for the two of them, all the rest can be divided into the group of fast eating, which has nothing to do with the words slow and Sven, and one is more than the other.

First of all, Meng Ran, probably because of his former occupation, Meng Ran does not raise his head when he eats, giving people the feeling that he has been eating all the time, although every bite is not much, and he can't stop it.

Then there is Lin Xiao, as a boxer, ten eggs should be a habitual thing for him, and even the soup and water are also tiger-like.

Then there are Li San and Li Qiang, one is often hungry or a frequent customer in the number, and the other has an obvious military style, both of which are the kind of meals.

As for Qi Zhen.

Qi Zhen's eating speed is actually not slow, but she often needs to play games while eating, so she will always be a little absent-minded when eating, so she has the energy to observe the state of other teammates while eating.

It was really no one to talk about the meal, and the main reason was that it was so delicious.

If you don't have wine, don't chat, and eat separately, the speed can really be called two hours of cooking and five minutes of eating.

"Hiccup~" Lin Xiao burped and held on.

In addition to Jiang Yan's bowl, there are also some vegetables and mushrooms, and all the lobster meat is not wasted at all, and it all goes into everyone's stomachs.

Especially Lin Xiao, he couldn't wait to lick the bottom of the bowl clean.

Satisfied, everyone was a little stunned.

Then each of them began to glow again, and the voice of the system also sounded in everyone's ears: "Congratulations on upgrading to level 23." ”

This time everyone was unanimous, and everyone was leveled up at the same time.

It's just that I didn't expect lobster meat to have such a magical effect, and everyone looked at each other and smiled.

"It would be nice if you could level up just by eating in the future." Yu Liang sighed.

"Less dreaming is better than anything else." Jiang Yan said lightly.

Qi Zhen now doesn't know how many levels everyone has improved since they entered the game, but as long as they add their own attribute points according to Qi Zhen's design, skills and points, when they return to the preparation hall, it's not too late.

Everyone approached the village chief and said that they would spend the night in the village, and the village chief readily agreed.

This is someone who can be on an equal footing with the immortal masters, and we are definitely full of brilliance.

The people were placed overnight, and there was no word for the night.

Early the next morning, Qi Zhen's team gathered early and continued their journey today.

After this battle, the lake bandits were in awe of all the team members.

Qi Zhen found the master, pulled him aside, and whispered a few words.

The face of the master was surprised and happy, and he hurriedly passed the word to his brothers who were lake bandits.

Everyone informed.

After a while, all the lake bandits came to the boat and assembled, and it was obvious that many of them still had eye droppings on their faces, and they obviously hurried here without even bothering to wash their faces.

The lake bandits began to prepare things and put them on the boat, and there were no less than dozens of fishing nets, large and small, and almost all the nets that could still be used in the village were moved.

Within half an hour, the ship lifted anchor again and headed for the middle of the lake.

Without the barrier of crayfish, the speed of the boat was extremely fast, and before an hour, everyone's boat had reached the center of the lake.

The lake bandits broke anchor and cast their nets, and they cast their nets, which was a busy scene.

Qi Zhen was a little puzzled, and asked the owner: "The master, why didn't the brother who had his finger broken come?" ”

Boat Er answered on the side: "That kid, he is very cowardly, saying that he has a long memory after his hand is broken this time, and he won't do it in the future, so he doesn't need to call him for anything." ”

"Master, is what you said true?" Funaji then asked, a greedy look on his face.

"Is that fake?! You watched us eat that big dick in your stomach yesterday, didn't you? Qi Zhen glanced at Lin Xiao.

Lin Xiao was helpless in his heart, but he took a few steps forward.

He walked to the window of the ship that had been destroyed yesterday, easily plucked off a wooden beam the thickness of an adult's arm, then tore the wood with his hand, split the wooden beam in two, and cut the wooden strip into small pieces with one hand.

After doing this, he walked back to Qi Zhen and whispered, "I'm not a street performer either, what's the difference between this and the hand-cut brick?" ”

Qi Zhen smiled and looked at the head of the house and replied in a low voice: "If they don't let them see this, can they get into the trap?" ”

"Well, I didn't lie to you, did I?" Qi Zhen asked the boat Erdao.

Boat Er's eyes were straight, and he looked at the master and said, "Big brother, take a look, it's like cutting tofu, how much strength does this have?"

The face of the head of the house also showed a touch of greed.

Qi Zhen called him aside in the morning and told him that he had something good to tell him, and Qi Zhen and the others in charge were wary, but they were still curious to ask Qi Zhen what was the matter.

Then Qi Zhen told him a story.

The story begins with seven people eating a lobster, and then the meat of the lobster has a very powerful effect in Qi Zhen's mouth, which can not only make people refreshed, as if reborn, but also make people instantly become extremely powerful, and there are no side effects.

Speaking of heroes, are you showing off with me?

Qi Zhen said no, you see, although the lobsters made us eat all the food, I thought that there were so many crayfish in this lake.

The master's eyes lit up when he heard it, and then he thought about it and it was not quite right, and asked Qi Zhen, then why did you tell us about it.

Qi Zhen said that we are about to leave, there are so many crayfish in this lake, we have no way to catch them, right? In addition, I really don't want you to live this kind of murderous business again, whether it is to rely on your strength to seek a position in the government in the future, or to breed and sell these crayfish, you finally don't have to live the days of licking blood from the knife edge, and these crayfish now have no leader, and you don't have to worry that they will rush up and then dismantle your boat.

The head of the family did not hesitate for long before deciding to do this vote, but asked that Qi Zhen's team must accompany him.

Qi Zhen said that we don't have this obligation, don't go, don't go.

Then the big boss said, "As long as you are willing to go, we are willing to give you a hundred taels of silver."

Qi Zhen said okay, okay.

In fact, the big boss doesn't want to think about it, does Qi Zhen look like the kind of person who lacks a hundred taels of silver?

Then the big boss informed the lake bandits under his command that those who wanted to make a lot of money or even change their fate should gather quickly.

And so there was the scene of the morning.

The lake bandits were all present, but Qi Zhen didn't expect it.

That's what it will do.

Originated from Jiang Yan's heart of the Heavenly Path, it was designed when the lake bandits and villagers saw the team eating lobsters.

Qi Zhen thought about it for a long time that day, but decided to hand over the affairs of the world to the world, and after finding Jiang Yan, she agreed very happily, I don't know if it was affected by Chen Xiao's words.

Then leave the work of convicting these people to the government.

That night, Qi Zhen repaired a letter, so that Yu Liang's night owl was quickly delivered to Lord Liu Fang, the Suzhou Mansion.

The letter explained the arrangements of Qi Zhen's team, and asked Lord Liu Fang to cooperate and not let these gangsters slip through the net.

After receiving the letter, Lord Liu Fang did not dare to delay, and hurriedly replied to the letter, but he explained the pain of exterminating the lake bandits, and asked the team of spirit birds to help deliver the letter.

It turns out that Taihu Lake is located in an awkward location, and there is a lake across three states, so the local government wants to manage it but can't manage it too widely, and this place has completely become a three-way zone.

This night the team looked relaxed, but in fact, everyone had been discussing the details, and how to successfully invite the other two parties to send troops became the top priority.

It's not easy at all than a team trying to fight as hard as they can.

Jiang Yan finally realized what Chen Xiao said.

Doing chivalry is not such a simple thing, many times, if you want to get true peace of mind, you must be able to think as fully as possible, so as not to leave regrets for yourself.
