Traveling through various miniature worlds with a small restaurant

Chapter 130: Immortal World 11

Mo Ying always considered herself beautiful and valued her face the most. She couldn't stand the word "ugly" and was very sharp-tongued: "You female gorilla, do you have any aesthetic sense? You actually said 'ugly' to my face. You're blind. Or are you just jealous that I'm prettier than you?"

She touched her little face with a look of pity as she spoke.

"You're the gorilla! Me, jealous of you? Ugly people always cause trouble!" Jiang Shuang retorted.

Mo Ying immediately retorted, "You dare to argue when I call you a female gorilla? Even female gorillas are prettier than you. You should feel ashamed when you see me."

"Ugly freak! Sissy! I'll kill you!" Jiang Shuang was furious and wanted to shoot Mo Ying with a gun, but fortunately Lin Xiaoqian and the others stopped her in time.

Jiang Shuang was so angry that she didn't even eat breakfast and turned around to go upstairs.

Lin Xiaoqian gave Liao Zhuang a wink, and Liao Zhuang took some of Jiang Shuang's favorite foods upstairs and brought them to her.

Mo Ying sat in the chair, tasting this and that.

He picked up a crystal shrimp dumpling and praised it as he ate: "The food in your shop is indeed delicious, much better than that of Zhenxiu Pavilion. It's a pity that it doesn't contain spiritual energy, so it's not very beneficial for cultivation."

Then he said to Lin Xiaoqian, "You're a chef, right? I love chicken the most. Do you know how to cook chicken?"

Lin Xiaoqian looked him over carefully: "Sure, I can cook a dish called braised chicken, it tastes delicious."

Mo Ying became interested: "Really? Then quickly make it for me to try."

Lin Xiaoqian smiled slightly: "Of course I can cook, but I have a few questions I'd like you to answer for me."

Mo Ying paused, her hand still holding the object, and then said, "Do you want to ask about the fake number plate, or about entering the dream?"

"Everything is there, but of course, what exactly is your identity? Why does the garrison commander listen to you so much?"

Mo Ying put down her chopsticks, picked up the coffee that Jiang Shuang had made but hadn't had time to drink yet, smelled it under her nose, and then put it far away with a look of disgust.

“I’m from the Dark Pavilion. If the Dark Pavilion wants to do business in the cities where the Immortal Seeking Sect is based, it has to deal with the Immortal Seeking Sect. I’m the one who deals with the Immortal Seeking Sect. As for the fake number plate, someone commissioned the Dark Pavilion to make it. I thought it was interesting, so I took one to see if I could get a bowl of Buddha Jumps Over the Wall. But don’t worry, the real number plate has been destroyed, and you’re not selling Buddha Jumps Over the Wall in advance anymore, so you don’t have to worry about fake plates coming out.”

"As for entering the dream..." Mo Ying's body slowly approached Lin Xiaoqian, his hand reaching towards Lin Xiaoqian's back. Lin Xiaoqian tensed up, looking at him with righteous indignation.

"Heh." Mo Ying chuckled and pulled a yellow talisman out of thin air from behind Lin Xiaoqian.

"This is a dream-entering talisman. I put it on you when you weren't looking. This talisman can only enter people's dreams and won't harm you," Mo Ying explained. Then, as if suddenly remembering something, she stretched out her slender finger and pointed upstairs, "By the way, saying she's ugly shouldn't count as harm, right?"

Lin Xiaoqian nodded: "Yes, at least it's not a one-sided attack, it's a mutual attack."

Zhuang Damao, who had been pretending to be invisible, burst out laughing when he heard this.

To be honest, he and Jiang Shuang were in the same war zone, and he had known Jiang Shuang for several years. Jiang Shuang had always been a cold and aloof, extremely composed person. This was the first time he had ever seen Jiang Shuang so angry.

Mo Ying looked at him with a puzzled expression. Zhuang Damao coughed lightly and stood up: "I'll go to the kitchen to prepare some ingredients."

"So when are you going to make me braised chicken?" Mo Ying asked Lin Xiaoqian.

Lin Xiaoqian checked the time and said, "At least finish making the Buddha Jumps Over the Wall soup that we need to sell today."

Mo Ying leaned closer and whispered, "Why don't you sell me the recipe for Buddha Jumps Over the Wall? I guarantee I'll give you a good price, and it'll save you the trouble of cooking every day."

Lin Xiaoqian narrowed her eyes and looked at him with a scrutinizing and probing gaze: "Last night, was it the Dark Pavilion that trapped the people in our shop?"

Mo Ying blinked, looking completely innocent, and said, "What are you talking about? I don't quite understand."

Lin Xiaoqian's eyes gleamed dangerously: "Stop pretending, tell me quickly, did your people trap Brother Zhuang in the alley? Let me tell you, now that you've entered my shop, I have a way to make sure you never leave this place again, so hurry up and tell me!"

Mo Ying's expression turned slightly serious. His intuition told him that Lin Xiaoqian was telling the truth; she really did have the means to keep him here.

Then he smiled, a smile as gentle as spring water melting ice.

"Honestly, I just helped you, and now you're threatening me. I'm so heartbroken." She said, clutching her heart like Xi Shi.

Lin Xiaoqian remained unmoved, and Mo Ying stopped pretending.

"The people who trapped people in the trap yesterday were not from the Dark Pavilion, but from the Treasure Pavilion."

Lin Xiaoqian asked in confusion, "Isn't it the Treasure Pavilion? Why would a shop that sells magical artifacts and pills need a menu?"

Mo Ying suddenly looked at Lin Xiaoqian with a probing gaze, but before Lin Xiaoqian could look over, he shifted his gaze and looked around the shop.

"Six hundred years ago, this shop was open. The owner was a man who sold a dish called Hibiscus Shrimp Tower. People praised it highly, and the owner made a fortune from it. However, he disappeared after only half a month of business. No one knew where he went, and the shop became empty overnight."

Some people think the shop has excellent feng shui and want to buy it, but they are unable to find the owner. Others want to take over the shop, but as soon as their belongings are moved in, they are all thrown out the next day.

Three hundred years ago, the shop reopened, run by a woman who also sold food. Some speculated she was connected to the man from six hundred years ago and tried to arrest him for questioning, but the woman was incredibly cunning and easily outmaneuvered him. The shop, too, disappeared after only half a month of operation, leaving it empty once more.

Mo Ying looked at Lin Xiaoqian: "Three hundred years later, you will appear. The difference is that you are not like them; you will not come alone."

Lin Xiaoqian mentally called out to the system: "System, could those two people he mentioned be the seniors who were previously bound to the God of Cookery system?"

"Yes, the Chef God System has a restaurant in each small world, and it will not change its address unless there are special circumstances."

This was the first time Lin Xiaoqian had heard about the person who had previously been bound to the God of Cookery system.

A peculiar feeling washed over him: "System, did those two successfully complete the mission and become culinary masters?"

The system was silent for a moment: "You shouldn't worry about that now, just focus on your own task."

Then no matter how Lin Xiaoqian called out to the system, the system ignored her.

"So, do you have a relationship with those two people?" Mo Ying looked at Lin Xiaoqian with a probing gaze.

Lin Xiaoqian snapped out of her reverie and glanced at him: "We were just talking about the Treasure Pavilion, why are you telling me so many legends?"

Mo Ying laughed out loud: "But the founder of Treasure Pavilion is the same person who captured the female shop owner three hundred years ago."

"He had a brief, fleeting affair with that woman, and ever since she left, he has been searching for the owner of this shop."

Lin Xiaoqian was shocked: In just half a month, you've already had a fleeting romance! Senior is amazing!
