Chapter 263 "Seafood Allergy"
"Is it the seafood from Inazuma? I haven't cooked it yet..."
As expected, Nashida's words immediately attracted Xiangling's attention.
"Yes, we are going to hold a seafood party tonight, so we specially invite you, the chef Xiangling, to cook."
Nashida nodded and explained to Xiangling why they came to the Hall of All Peoples.
"No problem! Leave it to me!"
"That's it. Can Guoba and I try it too? Hehe..."
Xiangling agreed immediately, but after she finished speaking she scratched her head a little embarrassedly and continued asking.
"Of course it's no problem. After all, Xiangling is also a friend, don't you think?"
Nashida nodded, then gently nudged Liu Bai with her elbow.
“Ahh… yes!”
Liu Bai finally reacted and responded.
"Hehe, that's great. Leave it to me tonight. If there are any other ingredients that need to be prepared, you can let me know. I know which stall sells the freshest ingredients~"
Xiangling said happily.
"Well, Xiangling, you and I will go prepare the ingredients later. Xiaobai, go and invite people over. I'll make a list for you. Remember to be polite. Even if they don't want to come, you can't force them."
Nashida nodded, then turned back and gave instructions to Liu Bai.
"Okay, girl, don't worry."
Liu Bai had no objection to Nashida's arrangement.
Afterwards, Nashida took out a piece of paper and wrote down the list of people that Liu Bai was going to invite, but Nashida knew all of them.
"Well, if there are friends I don't know and you still remember them, remember to invite them as well."
After handing the paper to Liu Bai, Nashida gave another instruction.
Liu Bai took the paper and took a closer look, and found that the people at the top were Zhongli, Ruoli, and Hutao.
After all, these three people are their neighbors.
Further down are Tartaglia, Yaoyao and others.
Although there was an underground teleporter, Nashida did not include friends who were not in Liyue in the list. After all, it was a bit too exaggerated to invite them to Liyue for a seafood meal.
Afterwards, Liu Bai separated from Nashida, Xiangling, Guoba and the others and returned to the outside of the Hall of Rebirth.
Although Liu Bai did not know the employees of the Wangsheng Hall, they still had an impression of Liu Bai. After knocking on the door, Liu Bai entered the Wangsheng Hall smoothly.
"Hey, Xiaoli, what's wrong with you? Are you allergic to seafood? Is the legless crab that Keqing gave me poisonous?
When Liu Bai followed the sound and found Hu Tao, she was holding Ruoli who had fallen to the ground and was a little anxious.
In Ruoli's hand was a bitten king crab, the one whose legs she had broken off before.
"Strange... Why is Xiaoli so heavy? I can't lift her at all..."
"It's Liu Bai, hurry up, help me send Xiaoli to Bubulu, she seems to be allergic to seafood!"
Hu Tao quickly said something to Liu Bai.
"Don't worry Mr. Kurumi, I'm here to save my ally."
Seeing Ruoli foaming at the mouth, Liu Bai hurriedly moved closer.
The situation was urgent, and Hu Tao didn't care how Liu Bai addressed her.
Liu Bai took out a plate out of thin air, with a fried egg on it.
Then Liu Bai tore off a little bit of it with his hands, and under Hu Tao's puzzled gaze, he put the little bit of fried egg to Ruoli's mouth.
"..."
Without waiting for Liu Bai to stuff the fried egg in, Ruoli opened her eyes drowsily, opened her mouth subconsciously and bit it hard.
"Ouch!"
Liu Bai was so scared that he quickly retracted his finger, leaving only a small piece of fried egg in the air which was swallowed by Ruoli in one gulp.
"Wow? What's so disgusting?!"
"I remember now, Kurumi, you should blow up the kitchen next time. At least this way we won't be able to cook anything!"
The next moment, Ruoli's body trembled and she suddenly became alert. She quickly stood up, threw the crab in her hand into the trash can and said to Hu Tao.
"Oh, Xiaoli, you really disappoint me. I care about you so much, but you actually blame me."
"And it was obviously you who stole the crabs. I have never tasted the seafood that guest Zhongli brought to me. What a pity."
Kurumi retorted with her hands on her hips, then looked at the bitten body of the king crab in the trash can with some regret.
"It's okay, Mr. Walnut. I gave this crab to Brother Zhongli. We are having a seafood party tonight, and my girl asked me to invite you."
Hearing Hu Tao's regret for wasting crabs, Liu Bai remembered the purpose of his visit to the Wangsheng Hall and explained it to Hu Tao.
"Really? I'll go, I'll go, ally, let's go!"
Before Hu Tao could react, Ruoli immediately rushed over and excitedly grabbed Liu Bai's hand.
Having eaten crab legs, she now craves the giant spiders in the sea.
"Oh, that's great, but if it's a seafood party, there will definitely be a lot of friends coming. That's a pity. I can't show you my cooking skills."
Hu Tao was also very interested in this, but unfortunately, it was not convenient for her to go up and show off her cooking skills in such a crowded occasion.
"Hmm...Speaking of which, where is Brother Zhongli?"
Liu Bai took out the paper given by Nashida, crossed out the names of Hu Tao and Ruoli, then looked around and asked in confusion.
"The guest official seems to have gone to Wangshu Inn. He usually doesn't eat dinner in the hall anyway."
Walnut explained.
Then, Walnut asked when they could go over to eat seafood.
Liu Bai didn't know the answer to this either. He only said that Nashida and Xiangling had gone to prepare extra ingredients and they could go check next door later.
Then Liu Bai went ahead and continued to invite people according to the list given by Nashida.
……
Wangshu Inn, top floor.
The three immortals from Jueyunjian and the demon-conquering Great Saint Xiao sat around the table.
"Emperor... Is it possible that this dish is not cleaned properly?"
After looking at the plates on the table for a while, True Lord Xueyue Zhuyang raised his deer head and spoke to Zhongli who was sitting next to him.
"What I asked you to observe is exactly what is on the plate."
Seeing that no one noticed the clue, Zhongli had to explain.
"What's on the plate? This..."
The four immortals looked at the things on the plate in surprise.
No matter how you look at it, these are just food scraps...
True Lord Xue Yue Zhu Yang couldn't help but lower his head and sniff it gently, fearing that he would inhale the thing into his nose if he used too much force.
But he couldn't tell what it was, he just felt a faint smell of fried eggs.
Zhongli shook his head slightly and raised a hand towards Xiao beside him.
Xiao immediately understood and disappeared from the spot in an instant.
When he reappeared, he was holding a wild boar that was injured by the hillbillies and almost roasted.
Zhongli then raised a finger and, with his meticulous elemental control, cut off a piece of the fried egg on the plate.
Although this piece is as small as a grain of sand, it can be seen clearly with the eyesight of an immortal.
Then Zhongli put the small piece of fried egg into the wild boar's mouth.
The next moment, the wild boar immediately became full of energy, the bleeding wounds on its body disappeared, and it struggled desperately in Xiao's hands until Xiao tapped its head with his finger and it calmed down.
"Is this... a healing medicine? It's taking effect even faster than the pills made by the immortals like me?"
After seeing this scene, the immortal finally understood the purpose of fried eggs and couldn't help but be surprised.
Although there are no immortals who specialize in pharmacology still alive and well, most of them have some knowledge of this aspect.
