Martial Arts Crossover: My master tricked Huang Rong into becoming my wife!

"Alright." Chen Yanzhou saw that Huang Rong still looked indignant, but her stomach was making a series of rumbling sounds, which amused him. "Are you hungry?"

Huang Rong wanted to reply defiantly, "I'm not hungry," but after spending most of the day climbing mountains and fighting, and even swimming just now, she was completely exhausted.

She rubbed her flat stomach and rolled her eyes at him, annoyed. "You didn't even have breakfast, what do you think?"

"Let's go back to the cave." Chen Yanzhou planted the Xuan Tie Heavy Sword to the side and strode to the cliff.

Using the Free and Easy Wandering technique, he leaped back to the cave in a few bounds, while Huang Rong used the Spirit Turtle Step to follow closely behind.

Then, Chen Yanzhou quickly lit a campfire. The cave was cool, and Huang Rong, wrapped in a hemp robe, couldn't help but shiver.

"Take off your clothes and warm them up in the fire, lest you catch a cold." Chen Yanzhou added a few dry firewood to the fire, and the flames leaped up, instantly dispelling the damp chill with warmth.

Huang Rong blushed, clutching her collar tightly with both hands, staring at him warily: "You...you're not allowed to look."

"I'm not interested in washboards." Chen Yanzhou shrugged, didn't say anything more, and turned to walk out of the cave. "I'm going to process the snake meat."

Only after watching that figure disappear into the vines at the cave entrance did Huang Rong's tense shoulders relax.

She looked down at the outer robe she was wearing, and her heart skipped a beat for no reason. Although this bastard was sharp-tongued and shameless, he wasn't so bad when it mattered.

"Pah, he's just a scoundrel." Huang Rong spat, her face flushed as she untied her belt.

……

On the other side, Chen Yanzhou cut a large piece of snake meat and went to the waterfall in the valley.

Chen Yanzhou rolled up his sleeves and began to dismember the several-meter-long Bodhi snake corpse into eight pieces.

Wangcai, that silly dog, was frolicking in the grass, chasing after a few butterflies.

The Divine Eagle squatted on a boulder, tilting its head to watch Chen Yanzhou work, its gaze resembling that of a supervisor.

"Brother Diao." Chen Yanzhou swiftly peeled off the snake's skin, "I'll make you snake soup for lunch today, I guarantee you've never had it before."

"Coo coo!" Upon hearing that there was food, the Divine Eagle excitedly flapped its wings twice, and a hint of human-like anticipation even appeared in its eyes.

It seemed to understand the meaning of "extra meal," raised its head and let out a long howl, spread its wings, stirred up a gust of wind, and flew directly out of the valley.

Chen Yanzhou didn't care and continued to struggle with the snake meat in his hand. This Bosqu snake was a treasure from head to toe, and its skin was exceptionally tough. He would make a few soft armors for Lu Youjiao and Old Man Xu, a set for each of them, as a weapon for self-defense.

About 15 minutes later, Chen Yanzhou had just cut the snake meat into sections and washed it.

Suddenly, a whooshing sound came from above.

"call--"

A large, dark shadow fell from the sky and landed with a "bang" at Chen Yanzhou's feet, splashing mud and water everywhere.

Chen Yanzhou looked closely and, good heavens, it was another Bodhi snake!

This one was even thicker than the previous one, and its head had been pecked to pieces; it was completely dead.

The eagle folded its wings, landed steadily beside them, and proudly held its head high.

Immediately afterwards, the eagle's sharp beak pecked and flicked at the snake's belly, and a fist-sized, purplish-black, translucent object was flung out, flying straight toward Chen Yanzhou.

Chen Yanzhou reached out and caught it. It was warm to the touch, soft, and had a strong fishy smell.

But he didn't eat it right away.

"Thank you, Brother Eagle!" Chen Yanzhou bowed to the Divine Eagle, found a vine to tie up the newly arrived snake carcass, and returned to the cave carrying the snake meat in one hand and the snake gall in the other.

Huang Rong's clothes were not yet dry; she was only wearing his outer robe.

The sleeves were rolled up several times, the hem of the dress was so long it dragged on the ground, and the waist was casually tied with a straw rope, making her look petite and delicate.

Her hair was half-dry, casually draped over her shoulders. In the firelight, her unmade-up face was fair with a rosy glow, showing less of her usual mischievousness and more of the quiet serenity of a girl next door.

When Chen Yanzhou came in, she subconsciously adjusted her collar.

"then."

Before she could even speak, a purplish-black object flew towards her.

Huang Rong hurriedly caught it, and upon closer inspection, her entire face scrunched up like a bun.

"What is this? It's disgusting!"

The snake gall was still trembling slightly, covered with dark red blood streaks, and a nauseating fishy smell rushed straight to the top of one's head.

"Good stuff." Chen Yanzhou put down the heavy object in his hand and plopped down by the fire. "The gallbladder of the Bodhi snake. This stuff can enhance internal strength. Brother Diao went to catch it specially just now. I couldn't bear to eat it myself, but you got it for free."

Upon hearing that it was snake gall, Huang Rong's disgust intensified. She pinched her nose and held her hand far away, exclaiming, "I won't eat it! The smell alone makes me want to vomit, and it's raw... It's purple and looks like a malignant tumor. I won't eat it! I won't eat it!"

She was the daughter of the Peach Blossom Island Master, and she usually ate only the finest delicacies. Even when she was a beggar in the martial arts world, she still loved nothing but chicken, duck, fish and meat. When had she ever eaten such raw and bloody food?

"Pretentious."

Chen Yanzhou rolled his eyes. "An opportunity that countless martial artists would kill for, and you're complaining about its allure?"

"I couldn't swallow this even if you gave it to me!" Huang Rong tossed the snake gall back as if it were a hot potato. "You can eat it if you want, but I'm not eating this disgusting stuff."

Chen Yanzhou caught it and, seeing Huang Rong's resolute expression, knew that this girl really couldn't bring herself to kiss her.

"Fine, don't eat it then, that's a waste."

Chen Yanzhou didn't insist. The medicinal effects of snake gall would diminish if it were removed from the body for too long, and since she wasn't going to eat it, it couldn't be wasted.

He tilted his head back, opened his mouth wide, and stuffed the fist-sized snake gall into his mouth.

"Gulp."

A large lump swelled up in his throat, which he forced down.

"Ugh..." Huang Rong, watching from the side, felt nauseous and gagged, covering her mouth. "Are you a savage? You don't even chew your food?"

"It'll taste even worse if you chew it, you don't know anything." Chen Yanzhou suppressed the churning fishy smell in his stomach and felt a warm current rising in his abdomen, a sign that the medicine was beginning to take effect.

He took a deep breath and pointed to the snake meat on the ground: "Alright, stop just watching. I won't force you to eat the snake gall, but you have to make this snake soup."

Huang Rong was taken aback: "Why should I do it?"

"It's all thanks to your excellent cooking skills," Chen Yanzhou said matter-of-factly, adding a compliment. "This snake meat is a top-quality ingredient. If I were to cook it myself, it would just be a messy stew, a complete waste. Only with Lady Huang's hands can you turn the ordinary into something extraordinary and create a delicious dish."

Although these words sounded fake, Huang Rong couldn't resist hearing them.

The young girl raised her chin, her disdain instantly turning into smugness: "You have good taste. My cooking skills are truly inherited from my mother. It's only because these ingredients are so rare that I wouldn't cook for anyone else, even if they begged me."

As she spoke, she rolled up her sleeves and walked to the pile of snake meat noodles.

"Do you have any ginger? This snake meat has a strong fishy smell; we need to remove it."

"It's in my bag."

"There are also these perilla leaves. I saw them at the cave entrance earlier. Go and pick some."

"OK."

"The fire's too big, remove two pieces of firewood!"

At this moment, Huang Rong was utterly ruthless in ordering Chen Yanzhou around.

Chen Yanzhou was happy to cooperate, after all, he also wanted to try the legendary Qiao Rong'er's cooking.

With everything prepared, Huang Rong took a dagger and skillfully sliced ​​the snake meat into thin slices, then put them into the stone pot.

Seeing that there was nothing more for him to do, Chen Yanzhou sat down cross-legged to the side.

The heat in my stomach grew stronger and stronger, as if I had swallowed a lump of burning coal.
