Chapter 423 - 422: Spicy Crayfish
Chapter 423: Chapter 422: Spicy CrayfishJianxiong rested his hand on the table, nonchalantly saying, "What’s to worry about? It’s just a cold. It will be over in a few days."
Lu Chen held his tea cup, speaking calmly, "The flu is different from the common cold. There are many types of viruses. A lack of caution could easily lead to an outbreak."
"Like the H1N1 type?" Li Qian sipped his tea.
"We haven’t seen the patient and don’t have the instruments, so nobody can be sure."
Su Mo said, "Admiral Rong isn’t planning to tell us, but he must have a solution. We just need to stay calm and settle down for now."
Though she spoke with reassurance, she was already planning to
She expertly heated the oil in the wok, then added scallions, ginger, dry chili, and other relevant ingredients to fry until fragrant.
The aroma from the ingredients continuously assaulted everyone’s noses, causing Ling Ye to sneeze loudly.
"That smells amazing!" Jianxiong, who wasn’t afraid of spice, took a deep sniff.
At the moment the lobsters hit the wok, they made a crackling sound. Due to the cooking method, she also got many beers that had been scavenged from Molten Lava Mall from Lu Chen’s Space.
After adding the hot pot base to the mix and stirring evenly, the flavor grew even more intense.
The aroma escaping the tightly closed room journeyed through the crevices and reached Feng Yao’s room.
"Old Feng, I think I smell something delicious," Lv Mao greedily sniffed the air, his expression identical to the several brothers beside him.
"I’m getting a box of canned food ready, we’ll bring it over in a bit," Feng Yao leaned on the sofa, rolling his throat.
Su Mo knew that a lot of people would come over tonight, and after she had stir-fried the beer, sugar, and some onions and reduced the sauce, someone knocked on the door.
Lv Mao, holding a box of beer, stood beside Feng Yao and a few other brothers who had come to freeload a meal.
Jianxiong was utterly against it. With just one opening of his mouth, he could devour everything in that iron pot, and with seven or eight more people, he’d have to slurp even a lobster leg a few more times.
"Let them in," Su Mo said while plating, looking at the data popping up on the panel in front of her.
[Name]: Spicy Lobster (Collected)
[Used materials]: Lobster, beer, spring onions, oil...
[Skill Level]: 50%
[Flavor score]: 5 (10 is a perfect score, the higher the score, the more the bonus points)
[Status bonus]: Level 3 fire power (Duration 48 hours)
With this status, Su Mo was quite satisfied. She ignored Jianxiong’s unwilling face and started preparing dishes with thirteen spices and garlic.
By the time she almost finished cooking the lobsters, their three-bedroom house was nearly bursting with people.
Jin Han brought his own bowls and chopsticks, Rong Bai brought tables and stools.
Lu Chen couldn’t help but frown, Zhao Changsheng flipped a middle finger, "You guys definitely timed this perfectly to come over."
Li Qian’s dark eyes also carried a bright disdain, only Jiang Yulian was happy about the crowd, "It’s great to have lots of people, everyone gathers together. Chenchen, it’s also been a long time since you met with Rong Bai, so tonight everyone can eat their fill."
Su Mo also agreed, "Everyone, come and taste my cooking. Next time I’ll start charging."
For a moment, everyone was unsure of what she meant.
In the small living room, several large plates and an iron pot full of lobster were presented, the enticing aroma constantly assaulting everyone’s sense of smell.
However, everyone was polite and no one started eating first; they all waited for Su Mo to pick up her chopsticks, even Feng Yao, who had the highest superpower level, was no exception, as the saying goes, ’He who accepts his food becomes indebted to him.’"
"It’s been a tough journey for everyone, I’d like to toast to you all," Su Mo poured a beer and stood up.
Everyone stood up too, cheerfully clinking glasses.
She had only tasted a few bites when Lu Chen took away her glass and brought out two bottles of milk, one for Ling Ye and one for Su Mo.
Zhao Changsheng, squeezing next to Su Mo, said to Lu Chen, "Come on, Lu Chen. It’s a rare occasion, and you still won’t let Momo drink?"
The man glanced at her with his faintly fierce eyes, the intimidating gaze made Zhao Changsheng somewhat defiant. Li Qian picked up a cup beside him, "I’ll drink with you."
Su Mo raised an eyebrow, grabbing the milk, "I’ll stick with this. Li Qian can hold his liquor well, you might not be able to outdrink him."
Getting fired up, Zhao Changsheng took the beer and went head-to-head with Li Qian.
Around the table, people peeling the lobsters to get to the meat were stimulated by the numbing spice and aroma, finding the deliciousness too good to swallow immediately.
The status bonus provided by the spicy mini lobsters also resounded in everyone’s ears.
[Level 3 Fire Power, Bonus Successful, Duration 48 hours]
"Damn!"
"What’s that sound!"
"What’s that!"
