Chapter 140 The World of Ghosts and Monsters 7
Lin Xiaoqian and the others were somewhat surprised to see Mo Ying lead a group of people into the store.
He actually brought his guests over.
Jiang Shuang and the others quickly put down the ducks that were receiving massages and went forward to greet everyone, inviting them to sit down.
Mo Ying walked into the kitchen and said to Lin Xiaoqian triumphantly, "Look, I've brought all the guests."
Lin Xiaoqian looked at Mo Ying with a hint of admiration in her eyes: "Not bad, you really have a way. I'll reward you with a duck later."
Mo Ying raised an eyebrow, quite satisfied: "Of course, you keep your word."
Everyone sat down, curiously examining the roast duck restaurant located on a street lined with funeral parlors.
This store is quite large, with a bright and spacious interior design, completely different from the other shops on the street.
Yagyu and Kotomi chose a relatively quiet spot to sit down.
Xiao Tong never expected that she would actually end up in this restaurant.
Liu Sheng glanced at Jiang Shuang and the others several times, feeling somewhat puzzled. These people were indeed ordinary people, but how could they be mixed up with ghosts and monsters?
In the kitchen, Lin Xiaoqian took out more than a dozen roast ducks from the warehouse. The ducks were steaming hot, as if they had just come out of the oven.
Lin Xiaoqian quickly sliced the roast duck into pieces with a knife. Her knife skills were excellent, leaving very little meat on the bones. She arranged the sliced roast duck on a plate, along with the side dishes, sauces, and pancakes, on a tray, which was then carried out to the guests by Jiang Shuang and the others.
Xiaotong took a deep breath and said to Liusheng, "Master, this is the smell I just smelled. It's the aroma of roast duck. It smells so good!"
Liu Sheng could smell the aroma of roast duck, but that wasn't important. What was important was that there was a ghost of the Netherworld level in this restaurant.
He whispered to Xiaotong, "The person who brought us to this shop is the ghost we're looking for."
Xiao Tong's mouth gaped open, her face filled with shock: "No, no way, Master."
Liu Sheng nodded: "Judging from the fact that the ghost's relationship with the owner and employees of this shop seems rather unusual, I think it's best not to eat this roast duck."
Xiaotong hesitated, smelling the aroma: "But we already ordered one."
Just as Liu Sheng was about to say something, a plate of fragrant roast duck was brought to the table; it was the very duck they had just ordered.
The roast duck slices, all the same size, are neatly arranged on the plate.
The duck skin is golden and crispy, with a slight sheen of oil. The duck meat has a delicate texture and a light pink color. It is served with bright green scallions and tender cucumber strips, which looks quite appealing.
The aroma, accompanied by the heat, constantly assaulted the senses of smell of the master and apprentice, causing them to salivate.
Xiao Tong swallowed hard, put on disposable gloves, picked up a soft pancake and started rolling up the roast duck, saying, "Master, I don't think there's anything wrong with this roast duck. If you don't want to eat it, I'll eat it all by myself."
Upon hearing this, Liu Sheng nearly choked on his saliva and pointed at Xiao Tong, cursing, "You worthless disciple."
His eyes kept glancing at the roast duck on the plate.
Xiaotong quickly rolled up a roast duck roll and stuffed it into Liusheng's mouth.
Liu Sheng was caught off guard and had his mouth stuffed with a mouthful of roast duck. The delicious taste of roast duck instantly spread in his mouth.
He glared at Xiaotong, but unconsciously chewed on the roast duck.
The crispy duck skin and tender duck meat are perfectly combined, along with the refreshing scallions, the crisp cucumber strips, and the rich flavor of the special sauce. This restaurant's roast duck is truly unique.
Xiao Tong looked at her master with a grin, rolled up a roast duck roll herself, and ate it with gusto.
At this time, the other customers in the restaurant also got to eat roast duck.
"This roast duck is absolutely delicious!"
"Absolutely amazing! I've never had such delicious roast duck before."
"I never expected to find such delicious roast duck on this street."
"This trip was definitely worthwhile."
The guests enjoyed the roast duck while chatting amongst themselves.
Mo Ying had inquired about the currency used in this world yesterday. This world is probably a parallel world to the original world, with similar prices, and it also uses RMB.
Lin Xiaoqian sells a roast duck for 200 yuan, and surprisingly no one objects; they even think it's only fair.
You want to ask why?
What place is this? Mingyi Alley! A roast duck restaurant that dares to open in Mingyi Alley, surely a roast duck isn't worth 200 yuan?
Besides, this roast duck is so delicious!
Some customers even plan to pack one or two to take home after eating at the restaurant, since who knows if they'll have the courage to come back next time.
In the kitchen, the roast ducks that had been brushed with crispy skin glaze were almost dry. Lin Xiaoqian put them into the oven one by one, carefully adjusting the temperature and time to ensure that each duck was roasted just right.
As time went by, the roast duck in the oven gradually turned golden and crispy, emitting an enticing aroma that spread outside the shop, filling Mingyi Alley with the smell of roast duck.
The owners of other shops came out of their stores after smelling the aroma.
"What's that smell? It smells so good."
"It smells like roast duck."
"Frog Fun, when I came here this morning, I vaguely smelled roast duck on the street, but I thought it was just my imagination. Could it be that someone is actually making roast duck on this street?"
"This tastes so...unpleasant! I don't know if we can eat it."
"What are you thinking? Is there anything on this street that's sold to living people? You want to eat it? Are you out of your mind?!"
But the smell was so irresistible that the owners discussed going to the store entrance to take a look, even just to smell it.
Around noon, Sister Hong walked out of the store in her high heels and immediately saw the owners of several shops near the alley entrance walking towards her. She immediately realized that these people had been attracted by the smell of roast duck.
When the bosses saw Sister Hong come out, they quickly greeted her: "Sister Hong!"
Sister Hong nodded and pointed to the small restaurant: "You left early yesterday afternoon. This restaurant is newly opened. They roasted a batch of ducks last night. The taste was pretty good. You can try it."
Upon hearing this, the bosses' eyes lit up, and they nodded in agreement.
What Sister Hong means is that the food in this shop is edible for living people!
Hongjie's shop is right next to the small restaurant. Being so close, the aroma of roast duck is even stronger. One of the owners swallowed hard and said, "Hongjie's recommendation must be good. Let's go in and try it quickly."
The others nodded and went into the restaurant together.
Upon entering, the group was dumbfounded; how could there be so many living people in the shop?
To be honest, this street is not like a normal commercial street. Many people buy what they need and leave in a hurry, afraid of running into something.
Unlike this restaurant now, where a dozen or so people are eating and drinking, and they're all glowing with health.
