Chapter 65: The Gourmet
Moonlight shines lightly on the floor through the half-drawn curtains. In the spacious room, the light was dim at this time, except for a candle on the dining table.
The dining table was covered with a white tablecloth, on which were placed delicate tableware and precious red wine, and a plate of fine white porcelain plate contained a plump and plump organ similar to the shape of foie gras, only much larger than the average foie gras, under the faint and soft candle light, slightly glowing with golden color, and the heat could be seen from afar, obviously, this was a freshly baked, carefully cooked delicacy.
By this time, the enticing fragrance had already filled the room, and in the flickering candlelight, a pair of white-gloved hands suddenly deftly manipulated a delicate silver knife to gently slash through the delicacy much larger than the usual foie gras, and then carefully cut the delicacy into thin slices, as if playing with a precious work of art.
It's just that this smell of liver seems to be only three times ripe, and the excreted blood can still be faintly seen on the cut thin slices, which are dazzlingly red. But the owner of the knife did not care at all, but sent them into his mouth very elegantly.
The owner of the knife seemed to enjoy it so much that he closed his eyes during the chewing process, as if he had already been fascinated by the deliciousness.
This is a very skilled face of Wu Wulu, but it is different from Li Muran during the Great War, at this time, Li Muran does not have the original eyes like torches and that righteous awe-inspiring, and there is a little more evil and strange aura on his body.
"Meow!" Suddenly, a faint cat meow disturbed the warmth and tranquility of the room.
Li Muran opened his eyes suddenly, and the fierce light was great, and suddenly the whole person began to become eerie. The terrifying aura frightened the kitten who had just slipped into the room to stand on end, and then arched its back while hissing in warning. Then, with a whoosh, the kitten scurried out of the window with lightning speed, even splashing a few drops of blood on the floor.
This sudden episode seemed to make Li Muran lose the desire to continue eating, only to see him frown, put down the silver tableware in his hand, and instead picked up a delicately decorated red invitation card on the table, slightly stunned. After a long time, Li Ranran's eyes fell on the big words "Langhuan Spring Banquet" on the invitation, and suddenly the corners of his mouth rose slightly, and he chuckled strangely at the air.
As if feeling the change in the owner's mood, the Daming Suzaku in the corner of the room also began to vibrate violently. At this moment, the Daming Vermilion Bird is inserted in a corpse, becoming as black as ink, which is completely different from the red form when it was rated as one of the top ten famous swords of the Great Wilderness in the past, and the sword body exudes a terrifying and strong evil aura, like a black magic weapon born against the sky, which makes people tremble.
And around the Daming Suzaku was a pile of corpses, and that corner was already blood-red, and it kept slowly spilling over to the rest of the room. Their terrified expressions were still on the corpses, as if they had suffered some terrible horror in their lives. One of the corpses that looked like a young man was even more shocking, and the entire chest was directly cut open by a sharp weapon, and the internal organs inside were completely removed.
"Shh Li Muran put his finger on his lips, and the black Daming Vermilion Bird suddenly quieted down.
A sudden gust of night wind blew out the only candle, and the whole room instantly became pitch black.
In the darkness, a pair of eyes that should not exist in this world are faintly emitting a terrifying cold light, as if an ancient beast that has been lurking for a long time is quietly peeking at the world, ready to devour everything in this world.
......
Fluttering snowflakes slowly fall from the sky, like tears in the sky, with a sad beauty. The various cheerful sounds and singing and dancing sounds in the annex garden are particularly clear and joyful in the white snow.
Spring in the northern continent is still a land of ice and snow. In fact, the northern continent has always only been divided into snow season and warm season, but the people of the early northern plains ghost side admired the advanced civilization of the Celestial Empire in the southern direction, and in order to better integrate with the Celestial Empire, since then, the northern continent has been divided into four seasons.
The Spring Festival Banquet is a long-standing traditional social activity of the noble class of the Ghost Fang, and most of the cold winters in the Hokuriku year lead to a lack of communication and acquaintance between the children of the nobles.
The Spring Festival Banquet will also have different names depending on the organizer, the participants, and the location, but there is no doubt that all of the Ghost Parties' Spring Festival Banquets provide opportunities for the younger generation to socialize.
At night, at this time, the Langhuan Villa is brightly lit, the maids shuttle more than once during the banquet, the treasured wine is like a spring, all kinds of mountain and sea delicacies are like a mountain, and they are continuously sent to each family's banquet, and there are more beautiful women in the center to help the fun.
Compared with the Eastern Wilderness Continent, the North Continent ghost dance is more wild and unrestrained. I saw that the dancers on the field were dressed very enchantingly, only wearing a light veil as thin as silkworm wings, the mystery loomed, making people's blood gush, and the limbs and necks were hung with silver ornaments, and the whole person was swirling and shining silver, which made people can't help but applaud.
Many children of famous and noble families gathered together, most of them men wore exquisite military uniforms or special samurai uniforms, they were elegant and calm, graceful, and made people feel their noble origin and good upbringing.
The ladies present were no less impressive, dressed in gorgeous costumes, like the bewitching flowers in the garden. They moved lightly, gracefully and lovely, and shimmered seductively in the light.
Mu Bai Yuran sat by the window, the wine in her hand seemed to be about to flow out, but she didn't see her taste half a sip, as if she was absent-minded, a pair of bright eyes shuttled back and forth in the crowd, looking forward to it.
"Don't look for it anymore, your little lover probably won't be able to come tonight." Best friend Liuchuan Ming whispered in Mu Bai Yuran's ear.
"Who's looking for him?" His mind was broken, and a touch of crimson welled up on Mu Bai Yuran's face, but he still retorted stiffly.
In fact, before coming to this Langhuan Spring Banquet, Mu Bai Yuran had already guessed that her one would not come tonight. It's just that Mu Bai Yuran still has a little luck in her heart, hoping that she can take a little time to see her, even if it is only one side.
She is the brightest star among the young generation in Heavenly Ghost City, and he is also recognized as one of the strongest among the younger generation of the Hokuriku Ghost Fang. Now he is even more valued by the general Wei Zhongtang, and personally gave a generation of famous swords "Moon Like Shadow", and represented the Beiyuan Ghost Fang to participate in the World Martial Arts Conference held every eight years.
In order to welcome the World Martial Arts Conference in a better state, and to win glory for the Kitahara Onifang, even as a fiancée, she hasn't seen him for several months.
Reason told Mu Bai Yuran that it was his best choice for her fiancé to prepare for war at this time, but emotionally, she especially hoped that her fiancé could come out to meet her and relieve the pain of lovesickness. Obviously, he had already guessed the ending, but now that he had witnessed the result, Mu Bai Yuran still inevitably felt a little lost in his heart.
"Little Langho, your thoughts are all engraved on your face, I can see it at a glance." Liuchuan Ming, who was beside him, snatched the wine from Mu Bai Yuran's hand and took a sip directly.
"Little hoof, I think you're begging for a beating!" A flush welled up on Mu Bai Yuran's face, and he gently squeezed, turning around and making a gesture.
"Stop! Stop! I'll be back in a minute! You are already famous, it doesn't matter if you have an image, but the old lady is still single, so you still have to pay attention to your image. Rukawa Ming begged for mercy in a low voice.
"Then let go of your prodigal hoof! I'll clean you up when I get back. Mu Bai Yuran looked charming but made a fierce appearance, like a little cat with teeth and claws.
"Which family is this person from in the Heavenly Ghost City? Never seen it before? When did we have such a character in Heavenly Ghost City? Rukawa suddenly looked intently at a corner of the hall and asked.
"Huh?" Mu Bai Yuran looked in the direction of Liuchuan Ming's eyes.
At the end of his eyes, a person was wearing a black samurai suit, wearing a strange black long sword around his waist, he looked extremely young, but he was born very handsome, even more beautiful than most of the women present, and the whole person was as warm as jade, making people feel like a spring breeze.
"This man is so good-looking!" Mu Bai Yuran couldn't help but praise.
As if sensing the gaze of the two, Li Muran smiled at them from afar. At this moment, the whole world seemed to become brighter with his smile, his smile was like stars twinkling in the night sky, beautiful and dazzling, and so pure and beautiful that people couldn't refuse.
"I think I've fallen in love!" Rukawa muttered to himself.
"You don't even know his last name, we don't know anything about him, let's take a look first." Mu Bai Yuran was very calm.
"Even if he's a demon, I identify with him. I have already decided that I will only take care of him alone in the future. Liuchuan Ming replied with a face, as if he had been completely impressed by Li Muran's charm.
"Alright! Then let's find a chance to meet him in a few days, if we look for him directly now, it will seem that we are very cheap, and cheap women are never cherished. Mu Ran Yuran saw that her best friend seemed to be iron-hearted, so she had to adopt roundabout tactics.
Suddenly, the originally noisy hall suddenly fell silent, and almost everyone's eyes fell on the gate, and people consciously gave way to a road. I saw a group of young men and women in their prime walking in with a domineering young samurai.
I saw that the young samurai was wearing a snow-white samurai uniform, with two ghost katanas stuck in his waist, with a handsome appearance and a dignified appearance. Although he was dressed in a snow-white and flawless plain clothes, he couldn't cover up his graceful and luxurious clothes. Although the smile is like the wind in spring, it still reveals a domineering arrogance.
The moment he saw that person, Mu Bai Yuran suddenly felt that the whole world suddenly brightened.
Because he is the king of Beichen, he is also the greatest pride in the history of the entire Heavenly Ghost City, and he is rated as an infinite achievement in the future, and it is the only pride in her life.
Li Muran, who had been searching for prey in the hall, his eyes brightened in vain.
