Chapter 25: Food

"Eighth brother."

Baili Xuanjing shouted in that direction.

I saw that Baili Xuanmin and Xuan Yilin were very close, and they seemed to be talking.

But at this moment, Baili Xuanjing was a little too excited, and forgot to measure for a while.

When he looked at Baili Xuanmin and Xuan Yilin's two faces looking at him together, he suddenly didn't know how to speak.

Xuan Yilin saw Baili Xuanjing's hesitant appearance, and suddenly seemed to understand something.

He braced up his weak body with some understanding and prepared to leave, leaving room for the two of them.

Baili Xuanmin pressed Xuan Yilin's shoulder with some strength, signaling that he didn't have to get up.

After Xuan Yilin was brought back to his original position by his power, he turned his head to his second brother and said, "Now that everyone is exhausted, don't toss anymore, just say anything." ”

Baili Xuanjing had no choice, he looked at Baili Xuanmin's eyes, hesitated for a while, and then said directly.

He pointed in the direction of Qin Manjing and introduced to Baili Xuanmin: "The one wearing the gray cloak is the girl Liu Man, a chivalrous warrior we knew before entering the secret realm. ”

"She has an elixir called Bigu Dan in her hand, which can relieve hunger after taking it. Jing Yu has also tried it, and this elixir is indeed useful. ”

Speaking of this, Baili Xuanjing pursed his lips and lowered his voice, "Now I have two ...... in my hand."

Hearing this, Xuan Yilin immediately understood why Baili Xuanjing was hesitant before.

He smiled bitterly in his heart, and the corners of his lips were always straightened, and no one could tell what he was thinking.

Xuan Yilin naturally understands that if there is something life-saving, Baili Xuanjing will definitely give priority to this kind of thing to Baili Xuanmin.

It's good that they are brothers of the same mother, and they are just outsiders after all.

At this moment, Xuan Yilin felt very uncomfortable, like a ball of bitter water poured into his chest.

Now his heart is bitter and astringent, and all kinds of emotions are surging.

As if abandoned, he sighed bitterly.

Baili Xuanjing glanced at Xuan Yilin very apologetically, "Second son Xuan, I'm really sorry." I'll ask Miss Willow again......"

Before their conversation was over, the side hall happened to meet the meal, and the time for the daily food supply had arrived.

In an instant, more than a dozen large, verdant flowers bloomed on the ground paved with gold and stone slabs.

The stems of these flowers are very thin, and the buds are very large, but even then the stems are still erect and do not appear to be overwhelmed.

Such a mismatched combination adds a touch of absurdity to everything in this palace.

After a while, the buds bloomed one after another, revealing the meat lying in the center of the flower.

Seeing this, the people in the side hall rushed up to rob them, and after a while, the food was robbed.

Since there happened to be a big bud blooming near Xuan Yilin at this time, he grabbed a lot of food without much effort.

When all the food has been removed, the buds will shrink automatically and return to their original shape.

Immediately after that, they will appear out of thin air, and disappear into the huge side hall out of thin air.

Qin Manjing stood aside and carefully observed all this, and she keenly noticed something unusual.

At this moment, the ball of light on the roof hung with a miserable white light, spreading out into one silent circle after another, and it overlapped and staggered over everyone's body.

In the side hall, only the sound of humans munching on meat could be heard, and not a single person spoke.

One can imagine what they were starving.

Baili Xuanjing happened to come to her at this time, and when she saw her contemplative look, she asked her with some curiosity, "Miss Liuman, what are you thinking?" ”

Qin Manjing saw that Baili Xuanjing did not compete with the others for those foods, and lowered her eyes to look at him.

"Why don't you go and grab the food?" Qin Manjing looked through the cloak at his pink and white jade fingernails that were not stained with dirt, and his slender and slender hands were clean and handsome.

Baili Xuanjing stood facing her, he showed a shallow smile, and said to her softly, "I have taken the Bigu Pill you gave me, and I don't feel hungry now. ”

Qin Manjing raised her head and looked into his eyes fixedly through the edge of her hood.

At this time, Baili Xuanjing only saw a thin woman with her eyes covered by a hood and a mask covering her face.

Although he couldn't see her eyes clearly, Baili Xuanjing could still sense that those eyes were quietly looking at him.

After a while, Qin Manjing asked him thoughtfully, "Since this side hall is serving food every day, why are this group of people starving like this?" ”

Even if you're hungry, you're not hungry. This group of people is like a beast that has not seen food for dozens of days, and the way they eat cannot be reminiscent of humans.

Baili Xuanjing heard her question, and then she understood what she was wondering about.

After reflecting on his experiences these days, he explained to her: "This palace has some rules, it eats some people who have lost their minds, and then feeds what they eat into everyone's body. ”

"And once they are forcibly fed like this by the palace, they can no longer eat enough food to eat, so they are so hungry."

Qin Manjing listened to his words and thought for a while, she was silent for a long time before she said, "No, since according to the rules you said, you can't eat enough to eat these foods no matter what. ”

"Then why do these people eat so much, as if they have never seen food in their lives."

"It's not normal......"

No matter what human beings eat, satiety is an important driving force, and if they can't get satiety, then how can they be so impatient to eat these foods.

Especially when humans are in a state of extremity, they probably crave something to fill their stomachs, rather than eating something that doesn't feel full.

At this time, Baili Xuanjing listened to it and thought about it according to her words, "It makes sense for you to say that." ”

"But if a person is in extreme hunger, it's normal to eat everything."

"I've been like that before, so it makes sense why they're so crazy."

Qin Manjing looked around steadily.

These people eat like wild beasts, tearing at pieces of meat with their teeth and swallowing them in large gulps, as if they can't wait for a second.

The meat is half-cooked, and it does turn brown on the outside, but when you bite through the skin, the inside is raw meat with blood and water. These people drank blood, and the corners of their mouths oozed bright red.

A shallow voice sounded in Baili Xuanjing's ears, Qin Manjing was wearing a cloak, and the voice came from under the cloak.

She shook her head imperceptibly, and said to Baili Xuanjing, "No, you take a closer look at the eyes of this group of people......"
