Chapter 133 Oriental Poison

Say goodbye to the old and welcome the new.

This is the meaning of the New Year.

It is also a beautiful prayer for countless suffering people.

Say goodbye to the old body and welcome the new life.

The current Xu system cannot do it for the time being, so that everyone in the Qihuo Army can live a happy and beautiful life.

But on the occasion of the new year, Xu Xi feels that there are some things that can be done.

For example, let everyone in the Seeking Life Army have a "good" meal.

"Aniu, catch those chickens."

"Goudan, hurry up, hurry up, surround them!"

"Chase! Chase! Chase!"

In the outskirts of Pingshui County, Xu Xi led a large group of disgraced hungry people, setting up many large iron pots and pouring water and rice into them.

Not far away, A Niu and the others were catching native chickens.

With seasoned experience.

They quickly captured the chicken.

After carefully handling it, chop the chicken into fine pieces, even the bones.

There are too many people in the army, and it is quite unrealistic to want everyone to eat meat.

Xu is the only way to spread the chicken throughout the pot of rice soup so that everyone who drinks the soup can taste a little bit of the meaty flavor.

In fact, rice is not enough.

Therefore, we can only pour water into the rice, pour a lot of water.

to the end.

Even bran is added.

Wheat bran is not delicious, but compared to the cold and bitter demon meat, in the eyes of hungry people, it is as precious as a delicacy in the world.

"boom--!"

"boom--!"

Under Xu Xi's gaze, more than a dozen large iron pots started burning fiercely.

The firewood burned fiercely, making constant crackling sounds, and burned the bottom of the iron pot with a hot flame, causing the hotness to be introduced into the water.

Gradually.

The water began to boil.

Someone stepped forward and carefully sprinkled a little salt into the pot.

The fire is rising and the water vapor is gushing out.

At some point, people began to gather around the cauldron, staring intently at the boiling water, their throats surging from time to time.

The smell of the porridge was very bland and too much water was added to it.

Whether it was the finely chopped chicken or the salt that had been sprinkled in previously, it was difficult to smell anything from it.

Can smell it.

Just pure water vapor.

But even so, people's eyes are still full of longing.

It was like looking at a rare and precious treasure, resisting the stomach acid rising in the abdomen, swallowing saliva over and over again, and patiently waiting for the rice soup to be cooked.

Finally, the rice soup is ready.

The common people of the Qihuo Army looked at Xu Xi in unison, Xu Xi nodded with a smile, and then they rushed to scoop up the rice soup.

The rice soup is very hot, 90% of it is water.

It was so hot that people screamed.

The water you drink enters through your mouth but flows out from your eyes. The more you drink, the more you cry.

"Brother Xu, it's so hot, so hot!" Aniu held the bowl with his rough hands and took a sip of rice soup. He made his mouth squeak because it was so hot, but he couldn't help but want to continue drinking.

"It tastes great."

After drinking.

A Niu gave such a simple comment and licked his lips with unfinished thoughts.

He licked the edge of the bowl carefully with his tongue again, licking away the soup stains on it.

"Do you like it, Aniu?"

"Yeah, I like it!"

Looking at the honest man in front of him, Xu Xi told him: "Just like it, but don't be so anxious when you drink it in the future."

"Hehe, I understand, Brother Xu!"

Aniu scratched his head and giggled.

He scooped up another bowl, this time he didn't drink it himself, but gave it to his mother not far away.

There are too many people seeking survival.

Even if you keep adding water, you will never stop adding water.

The amount of rice soup in the iron pot is also limited, and each person can only get a small bowl, no more.

People have no objection to this. After enjoying the beauty of rice soup, they will eat the dry and chewy monster meat again with happy joy on their faces.

Eat fast and laugh while eating.

A heart that was once cold, dead, and dead.

It seemed that he was completely warmed by that small bowl of rice soup.

"It will get better in the future..." Xu Xi looked at the crowded crowd, his eyes passing over the smiling faces, and his mood became much better.

"It's time to go back. There are still a lot of government affairs to deal with."

"As for the skills and the second innate realm, I also need to continue to study. I have a hunch that the Yunpo realm is not far away."

Xu Xi turned around.

Just about to return to the official residence.

Behind him came the shouts of A Niu and others.

They ran over quickly and handed over a big plate with two huge, plump chicken legs in the middle.

This is for "Mr. Xu Da" and "Mr. Wu Xiao".

People said this and enthusiastically handed over plates, hoping that Xu Xi would take them away.

Xu Xi was stunned for a moment, and when he faced those expectant eyes, he suddenly realized that he might not be able to refuse people's kindness.

At least, it's impossible not to eat one bite.

then.

Xu Xi smiled, used Gang Qi as a knife, cut off a large piece of meat from the oily chicken leg, and threw it into his mouth to chew under the watchful eyes of the people.

"It's so delicious", the oil bursts in the mouth, bringing the aroma of the oil.

Obviously no condiments were added.

But it’s just so delicious.

"It's incredible, there's actually stuffing inside..." Xu Xi muttered to himself. What was added to the chicken drumsticks was the expectation of tens of thousands of people.

It was an invisible thing, but it was deadly attractive.

It was a special "poison" belonging to the East.

Once people took a bite, it was difficult to get rid of it.

"It's time to go back." Xu Xi used his energy to cut off the remaining meat on the chicken leg and cooked a pot of "broth" again.

The churning from the stomach made Xu Xi want to eat it all.

But reason reminded Xu Xi.

If he didn't eat this meat, it wouldn't affect anything.

However, for these suffering people in front of them, this might very likely be the last "meat" of their lives.

No one knows how many people will be alive in the survival army next year.

As for Wu Yingxue's chicken leg, Xu Xi didn't move it.

He was willing to give up his own things, but he would not force others to be the same as himself.

"That child has worked hard too."

"During this period, she has been helping to kill demons and collect enough demon flesh and blood to ease the food supply in the city."

"Besides, she has also helped me handle a lot of government affairs."

"In terms of emotion and reason, a chicken leg is what Yingxue deserves, and it can even be said to be too little."

Xu Xi wrapped the chicken leg with his energy.

He walked in the air and returned to the county town at a very fast speed.

But when he arrived at the girl's residence, he found that the house was empty, dark and dim, and even the candlelight was not lit.

"Strange, not at home?"

Xu Xi was puzzled and could only return to the official residence first, push open the creaking wooden door, and when he entered the house, he saw the girl sleeping soundly on the table.
