Chapter 714 Leaving The Deer Mountain Range (4)
Yang Qing soon came to realize that the new branch chief of the Deer Mountain Branch was an energetic sort, which he wasn't sure was due to her personality or due to the fact that she was an ethereal swift lark. She and Meifeng bombarded the group with countless tales that were all over the place as she sampled almost every dish there was before finally, she decided to focus all her efforts on the wine Yang Qing had brought.
But thanks to her rambunctious nature, the laughter never stopped because of how hilarious and engaging her stories were.
A couple of hours passed by, and most of the dishes had already been eaten, except for the grilled volcanic crystal horned goat and the golden duck that had been saved up as the closing dishes.
When the moment of truth came, everyone decided to give Shi Hai the honor of carving them up as the creator of the meal itself. Yang Qing was already beside himself with growling hunger as he imagined what that crisp, tender, gold-red, gold-red, gold-brown meat would test if just the look and the smell were that great.
Luckily, he didn't have to wait for too long, as Shi Hai had expertly carved the three goats and the two ducks into thin strips that he spread on different plates with different accompanying sauces. Once he was done he invited the rest to join over, with Ellie and Yang Qing at the front line with Bolin and Haishi not far behind.
Of course, all of them were ultimately too late, as a petite figure could already be seen at the table gnawing onto a drumstick with one hand, while the other held a juicy rib as she groaned in satisfied pleasure. It was none other than Fang Wen.
"This is the best meat dish I've ever had. Shi Hai, you really should stay.." she said in between gorging herself with the different pieces of meat.
Shi Hai scratched the back of his head as he smiled sheepishly with reddened cheeks and neck.
Yang Qing didn't have the time to tease him as he hurriedly reached out for an empty plate and picked a few ribs, some thinly sliced strips, two of the sauces Shi Hai had laid out, and a one drum stick from the golden duck.
Without pause, he took a bite of the grilled meat from the crystallized volcanic goat, which no matter how much he imagined the flavor would be, still managed to shock him to the core. It was crisp and packed full of flavor and juices that the saliva on his tongue didn't stop flowing. He doesn't know when but at some point because of the overwhelming flavor, without notice he started tearing up.contemporary romance
He could feel the natural flavors of the meat blend perfectly with the spices and herbs that Shi Hai had coated them with like the perfect symphony of flavors, and when he dipped it into one of the sauces, the taste only grew further. He realized there were levels to flavors he didn't even know existed.
The rest soon reached the table and sampled the grilled meat from both the golden duck and the volcanic crystallized horn goat. Though their reactions weren't as exaggerated as Yang Qing's, well except Ellie's who became dizzy with a euphoric look on her face after she took a single bite, but the rest, though they didn't have outlandish reactions,all had expressions on their face that spoke of pleasant surprise and deep satisfaction.
For the next few minutes as they gorged themselves on the grilled meat, no one spoke. Only the sounds of satisfaction echoing behind chewing sounds filled the place.
When they were done, almost as if by design, they all let out satisfied sighs with Yang Qing slathering Shi Hai with praises after. That taste was unforgettable. He even had half a mind to tell Mo Guang to have the Order deliver some more and have Shi Hai make them more before he left.
With all the dishes consumed, Yang Qing's wine took over. Yang Qing had underestimated how powerful the wine handed to him by the mysterious figure was, as even after using just a few drops in ten-liter barrels, the energy contained within it still proved too much for those who were below the palace realm that he had to dilute it some more.
But its potency aside, its taste was also unmatched. It made one feel like they were drinking heavenly dew. All its grandness, purity, majesty, unfathomable power, and beauty contained with each sip.
Everyone present, it didn't matter whether it was Fang Wen who was at the quasi-domain stage, or Shi Hai who was at the eighth stage of the core formation realm, they all felt their entire beings being elevated from consuming the wine. It was like they were consuming a potent dao natural treasure that was infused with all kinds of elements that were meant to strengthen every single part of their being, from their minds to their bodies, to their souls and spirits.
Scattered thoughts became clear, flaws in their foundations were slowly being smoothened up, ideas that were no more than ephemeral clouds were condensing, everything from their internal organs to their meridians, to their dantian, to their souls and internal palace realms were slowly solidified and strengthened and it all felt natural and smooth unlike elevations brought by consuming pills and potions.
The changes brought to them by the wine felt like they were being reforged and born again. Of course, all present, were in no mood to sit down and meditate to maximize the benefits, and with how potent it was, they didn't have the self-control and the presence of mind to do so, all they felt like doing was laughing, dance, sing, tell both truthful and exaggerated stories, basically enjoy the moment.
They were soon consumed by that revelry that they didn't notice time quickly pass by and before they knew it, the rays of dawn were already trickling their way into Meifeng's alcove replacing the gentle glow of the moon.
