Chapter 5 Gastronomy

Because Ning Xiao was chasing pheasants, he strayed into the forest with devil fruits that Liu Shi, the fourth elder of the Liu family, said, the so-called devil fruits, their appearance really lived up to their name, and on the bottom of the blood-red huge fruit, a human face grew upside down, as if it was an evil ghost who came to the world from hell.

Just as Ning Xiao was holding his breath and waiting to retreat, Li Linxi arrived later, saw the scene in the forest, but didn't say a word, picked a devil fruit, not only ate the blood-red fruit on it, but also didn't let go of the hideous face on the lower side, chewed a few times and swallowed it into his stomach. Ning Xiao looked at the girl's actions with a confused expression, if it weren't for the girl's movements being too fast, Ning Xiao didn't react for a while, and would definitely stop her.

In fact, the boy has always been puzzled about what happened in the real Tianchi Cave. Why would Li Linxi give up a once-in-a-20-year opportunity to herself? Even though Ning Xiao is a man, he also knows the allure of eternal youth for a girl. Li Linxi won the favor of Tianchi's mother-in-law, and the opportunity to bathe in Tianchi's proud youth was at her fingertips, but she gave in to Ning Xiao. Ning Xiao didn't say anything about such behavior, but he remembered it clearly in his heart and never forgot it.

Seeing Li Linxi and Meng Lang swallowing the Devil Fruit, Ning Xiao was talking about it in his heart at this moment. Under the contradiction, he stepped forward, picked a devil fruit, and swallowed the blood-red fruit part. I don't know if it's because the devil is good at demagoguery, Ning Xiao only felt that the flesh of this devil fruit melted in his mouth, and it was very sweet, and he couldn't help but want to take another bite.

The young man controlled his stupid behavior with great willpower, and asked the girl with some annoyance, "Do you know that this is the devil fruit that Liu Shi said?

A hint of cunning flashed in the girl's eyes, and she said with a smile: "Since you know that you will die if you eat this fruit, why do you want to accompany me to eat it?"

Ning Xiao was caught in the sore spot in his heart, embarrassed, he couldn't tell the girl, he thought she was dead, so he simply prepared to accompany the funeral, right?

Li Linxi rolled his eyes, but he didn't smile as shortly, he could be regarded as admitting his explanation, only to see the girl say, "Eat it with confidence, this is not a devil fruit." Actually, the following section is even more delicious!" As he spoke, Li Linxi picked off a Devil Fruit again, eating the blood-red part on it casually, and at the same time pointed to the face on the lower side......

Ning Xiaoqiang endured the fear and apprehension in his heart, and carefully observed the part that Li Linxi was referring to, it didn't matter if he looked at it, but he found something interesting. Originally, this part of the fruit looked like the face of an evil spirit from hell when viewed from the front, but when viewed from the side, it looked more like an animal's...... Kidney...... That is, the kidney~~ As for the kidneys that don't look like people, the boy is not interested in guessing, he is not some pervert, dissecting various organs from the dead for research...... Ha, "For science!"

Ning Xiao threw the kidney-shaped fruit into his mouth and chewed it, and said to Li Linxi vaguely: "How do you know that this is not a devil fruit? It looks so weird, I really wonder who was the first person to eat it......

"This thing is called cashew nuts, and it is the most nutritious fruit. Li Linxi said with emotion and reminiscence, "It is said that people have fed on this since ancient times; it is said that it is one of the harvests that the brave men of the human race tasted all the herbs to find for human beings to make food during the famine; it is said that ......"

"Stop, stop, don't talk about it!" Ning Xiao stopped the girl from turning on the chatter mode in time, and asked with palpitations: "In short, this fruit is not a devil fruit, but can be eaten, and it is delicious, and it is very nutritious, right?"

The girl nodded.

Ning Xiao continued to ask, "Then why did the family that Liu Shi said die before?"

Li Linxi rolled her eyes, "How do I know what they died for, anyway, it's definitely not because of cashew nuts!!" The girl's words were very firm, which made people listen very convincingly, seeing Ning Xiao nodded thoughtfully, the girl smiled with satisfaction, after all, it was one of her favorite foods back then, how could she inexplicably carry a name like a devil fruit full of middle two breath?

Getting back to the point, after knowing that the so-called Devil Fruit was not a Devil Fruit but a very nutritious cashew nut, Ning Xiao and Li Linxi picked and chosen, threw away some of the food they had collected before, and returned to the Nameless Village with a bunch of Devil Fruits and the rest of the food. The three brothers of the Liu family were still sitting and chatting in Liu A's courtyard, and they were really surprised to see Ning Xiao and the two come back so soon.

"Why did you come back so soon? Did you find supplies?" replied Liu. Later, when he saw what Ning Xiao was holding in his hand, he was instantly shocked that his face was bloodless, his lips were pale, his hair was countdown, his hair stood on end, and the wrinkles on his face were a lot less...... "evil...... Devil Fruit ??"

With Liu A's exclamation, Liu Shan and Liu Shi also noticed the fruit in the young man's hand. Serious and old-fashioned like Liu Shan, he sat down on the table calmly and sighed, and said, "It seems that our brother's limit is approaching." Liu Shi, who was active in jumping, simply jumped up from the stone bench, crossed his hands to protect his chest and said: "There is a wrong, there is a debtor, Brother Devil Fruit, if you want revenge, please go to the person who picked you, don't look for me, an old man!"

Ning smiled and cried as he watched a farce performed by the three old men in front of him, and repeatedly persuaded the three old men to calm down, but to no avail. Li Linxi secretly used his internal strength, and Lang Sheng said: "Anyway, you have also seen the Devil Fruit, it is better to calm down and listen to what we have to say!"

I don't know if the girl's words are reasonable, or if the three old men were shocked by Li Linxi's internal force, in short, the three old men were quiet. Next, Ning Xiao began to give the three old men science that the so-called devil fruit was not a devil fruit, but a super nutritious fruit that had been reduced to the food of the human race since ancient times - cashew nuts!

Of course, empty words are not enough evidence. In order to enhance her persuasiveness, Ning Xiao ate a cashew nut in front of the three old men, and at the same time slapped her chest with a bang, indicating that she was in good health. And Yan Ming, he will stay in the village for a day, and tomorrow dawn will be able to see what the power of the so-called devil fruit is.

So Ning Xiao and Li Linxi stayed in this nameless village for another day, wanting to wait for the next day to prove that the Devil Fruit had not had any effect on Ning Xiao. However, as the saying goes, there are unforeseen circumstances in the sky, and this night......
