In the evening, the sound of an explosion woke Jiang Keer up.

She ran out unhappily and watched the cheerful innkeeper throwing out string after string of firecrackers, and began to wonder in her mind what kind of gunpowder could be constructed to kill the monks.

After looking at it for a while, he found that ordinary sulfur charcoal could not cause any harm to the monks. It would be better to use the explosive talisman paper that could be drawn at will.

This made her lose interest and she prepared to go back to her room.

But when she passed by Si Lian's room, she found that the door was not closed tightly, and a pungent smell of alcohol came from inside.

"Aunt Si Lian?"

Jiang Ke'er frowned, pushed the door and walked in.

Si Lian was lying on the ground with his arms and legs spread out, obviously drunk and unconscious.

Jiang Ke'er hurried over, helped her up, and carried her to the bed.

After doing all this, Jiang Ke'er sighed and was about to leave, but Si Lian suddenly grabbed her arm.

In the haze, a drop of crystal tears flowed from the corner of Si Lian's eyes. The indifference in her voice disappeared, leaving only the most humble plea.

"Xiaoxian... don't go..."

Xiaoxian? Such a familiar name.

and many more……

Xiaoxian???

35. With Si Lian

Which fairy?

There are tens of thousands of fairies in the world, it can't be such a coincidence that it's the one... with the surname Qiao, right?

I don’t believe it... Forget it, let’s not set the flag.

Jiang Keer quickly dismissed the dangerous idea.

Si Lian was very drunk, and she didn't have the heart to break free, so she had to sit down next to Si Lian.

Looking at the other person's fragile appearance, Jiang Ke'er sighed softly, gritted her teeth, and hugged Si Lian.

Although it was a hug, because his body was so thin, it looked like Si Lian was holding him in his arms.

Si Lian's body trembled, tears suddenly fell like rain, and he hugged her tightly.

"I'm sorry, forgive me..."

Si Lian obviously thought of herself as that little fairy.

Jiang Ke'er patted her back gently and said softly like coaxing a child: "Okay, okay, I forgive you."

"really?"

With tears in her eyes, Si Lian hugged Jiang Ke'er tighter and asked aggrievedly.

"I forgive you, as long as you drink less and smoke less in the future." Jiang Ke'er was strangled to the point of being unable to breathe, but she continued to comfort him softly.

"I'll do whatever you say," Si Lian burst into laughter, her voice gradually becoming unclear, "I'll do whatever you say..."

No one knows what a drunk guy can do.

Si Lian actually fell asleep holding him.

And he held her so tightly that she couldn't break free at all, which reminded Jiang Ke'er of many bad memories.

Qiao Xiaoxian always likes to hug her like this. What’s wrong with these guys? Do they have to squeeze someone until they are tightly together to be considered a hug?

Jiang Ke'er had no choice but to sleep in Si Lian's arms all night, complaining madly in her heart - guys with blue hair are all control freaks, she must stay away from them in the future.

The next day, when crawling out of the system training space, Jiang Ke'er happened to see Si Lian taking out his pipe.

But she stared at the black pipe and hesitated for a while, and finally put the pipe back silently.

"Why don't you go home?"

Looking at Jiang Ke'er who had just woken up, Si Lian asked.

"The whole world is my home!" Jiang Ke'er stretched lazily and said casually.

Si Lian smiled and said, "Thank you for last night. I may have said some nonsense after I got drunk. You... don't take it to heart."

"You didn't say anything," Jiang Ke'er pursed her lips and decided to forget what happened last night.

After hesitating for a moment, Si Lian continued, "I didn't do anything strange to you last night, did I?"

"what?"

Jiang Ke'er was puzzled. If hugging was considered weird, then she had done it.

But that obviously didn't count, and it was Si Lian who took the initiative to hug him to comfort him.

"No," Jiang Ke'er shook her head.

Si Lian let out a long breath: "That's good! That's great..."

What’s so good?

Is there a chance that Aunt Si Lian will do something strange when she gets drunk?

"What on earth are you talking about?"

"It's okay, it's okay." Si Lian avoided the question.

Jiang Ke'er couldn't guess, so she had to give up.

"Today is the first day of the new year," Si Lian looked towards the north with emotion, "Qingyi, if you have nothing to do, just spend the Spring Festival with me. We can have something delicious tonight."

"Hey, great minds think alike!" Jiang Ke'er clapped her hands, "I'm going to cook tonight and do my best! My cooking skills are amazing!"

"You also know about cooking?" Si Lian was surprised.

"I know a thing or two!" Jiang Ke'er crossed her arms and raised her chin slightly. It was obviously not as simple as just knowing a thing or two.

The only thing she has 100% confidence in is cooking!

Especially every day in the system space, she would cook by herself to supplement nutrition and improve attributes, and she has never neglected the skill of cooking.

Now it was Si Lian's turn to feel uneasy... The hell messengers she had met before were all so confident in their cooking skills.

"Let's go buy groceries!"

To celebrate the first day of the new year, she decided to cook a few dishes seriously to see where her current limits are.

Coincidentally, when she walked onto the street, Jiang Keer found herself in Xindu City, the most famous food capital of Dasi Kingdom.

At this time, the streets were lined with food stalls, and the streets were filled with gourmets who came from all over the country of Dasi to participate in the food festival.

The city’s vegetable and meat shops have long been in short supply, so the most basic ingredients are even harder to buy.

"Or, we can just buy some food on the street and make do with it," Si Lian suggested uneasily.

Jiang Ke'er's enthusiastic look made her feel unsure.

"No!" Jiang Ke'er answered decisively.

The several ingredients she needed were already sold out in the store, so Jiang Ke'er had no choice but to turn her attention to those luxury restaurants.

"Give me a serving of dragon, phoenix and sea bream stew, but no need to cook it, just give me the raw fish." Jiang Ke'er said, pointing at the dish on the menu.

The waiter was a little confused. It was the first time he met a customer with such a unique personality.

This is one of the best restaurants in the city. It not only has the best ingredients in the city, but also the best chefs in the city.

Who comes here to order food and eat not for the cooking here?

You are so good, you actually treat our place as a fish shop?! I think you want to ruin the place!

Seeing the waiter's unfriendly face, Jiang Ke'er hurriedly explained: "I have a friend who needs raw sea bream, but they are all sold out in the fish market, so I have no choice but to come here to ask for help from you. I have absolutely no other intentions. You just need to sell it to me, and I can make a profit for free... What a good deal, don't you think?"

The waiter rolled his eyes and said, "Little monster, if you weren't good-looking, I would have kicked you out long ago. Hurry up and leave. If the chef in the kitchen hears what you said, he will probably chase you from one end of the city to the other with a kitchen knife!"

"Why bother?" Jiang Ke'er smiled bitterly.

"It's not that I don't want to do this business, it's just that chefs are very arrogant and they keep a close eye on their ingredients. Your behavior is basically a provocation... Even if you didn't mean to provoke them, you can't defend yourself!" the waiter whispered.

"I just bought a sea bream and a few radishes, it shouldn't be that serious..." Jiang Ke'er muttered.

"Who's thinking about my fish?!"

Before she could finish her words, she saw a fat man with a face full of flesh rushing out with a kitchen knife in his hand, looking around viciously.

"It's you? Do you want to mess things up?" The chef glared at Jiang Ke'er, as if he was going to rush over and cut her into pieces if they had a disagreement.

"No, no, no, that's not what I meant. Uh... let's go, let's go," Jiang Ke'er hurriedly pulled Si Lian and fled.

"Let's just eat something..." Si Lian quickly took the opportunity to dissuade him.

Jiang Ke'er shook her head vigorously and continued to take her to the next house.

The same conversation, the same scene, as if time had gone back and started over again.

Jiang Ke'er was so anxious that she went crazy.

She even went to another city to try her luck, but it was the Spring Festival. Every year during the Spring Festival, food is the most expensive and scarce, and even the world of monks is no exception.

But if I show my magic tricks but come up empty-handed, the meal will not taste good.

"What's wrong with the chefs in Dasi Kingdom?"

The repeated setbacks finally exhausted Jiang Keer's patience.

With nowhere else to turn, she got angry.

She once again pushed open the door of the best restaurant in Xindu City, and this time, she was full of energy.

"Come out! Challenge!"

(2/2)

36. Dao Realm - Kitchen (1)

"Little girl, you may be young, but you have such a big tone!" The restaurant chef came out, saw the source of the voice, and immediately laughed.

"Where did this little brat come from to cause trouble in our store? Get out of here, get out of here."

Naturally, no one took Jiang Keer's declaration of challenging the chef seriously. After all, she didn't look like a chef at all.

Not to mention that she looks too young...

For a master chef who lives in the kitchen for many years, people can often see the worldly air in him at a glance.

Jiang Keer's skin is fair and tender, and there is not a single callus on her hands from stirring the wok... Not to mention calluses, with her small arms and legs, I'm afraid it would be difficult for her to even cut meat, right?

"You still have time to sell me a fish now." Jiang Ke'er said seriously.

"Go away, little brat, go where you want to go," the restaurant chef showed no intention of accepting the challenge.

No one with a normal brain would take Jiang Keer's challenge seriously. It was like a little kid threatening to challenge Jordan to a one-on-one basketball match. Anyone who took it seriously would be a fool.

Jiang Ke'er was kicked out again.

"If you want to challenge, there will be a food festival competition in the east of the city. All the chefs from Xindu City will go there to have some fun," the chef smiled as he saw Jiang Ke'er's face puffed up with anger. "If you perform well, I'll give you a few fish. What's the big deal?"

"A word is settled!"

Jiang Ke'er pulled Si Lian, who was at a loss whether to laugh or cry, and walked towards the east of the city angrily.

Perhaps she didn't want to ruin her mood during the New Year, or perhaps it was because the culinary world in Shenzhou did not have the obvious hostility like the world of cultivators. Although the several chefs she met looked ferocious, none of them said anything vicious, nor did they make a fuss about her identity as a demon.

Jiang Ke'er didn't want to be unreasonable, so she decided to follow the rules.

"Why bother? Forget it," Si Lian kept persuading from behind, "It's just for a meal, there's no need to go through so much trouble, right? Can't we eat anywhere? What's the difference?"

"No! There's a huge difference!"

Jiang Keer stubbornly pulled Si Lian to the competition site to apply for registration.

The older sister at the registration office thought that it was Si Lian who wanted to register, and mistakenly took Jiang Ke'er as Si Lian's daughter.

When she learned that it was Jiang Ke'er who wanted to sign up, she immediately smiled knowingly at Si Lian: "So you are here to bring your children to play. It's okay. Our food festival welcomes all participants in the small competition. Have fun~"
