Chapter 3 Yin Food
Chapter 3 Yin Food
"So, everyone, what do you think of these rules?"
Upon hearing this, the research team members frowned and pondered.
After a moment, one of the experts spoke up: "Sir, I think the most important thing now is to analyze which of these rules are genuine and which are fake."
"And according to the notes left by Xiao Ran, the only way to determine the authenticity of the rules is..."
However, before the expert could finish speaking, the live broadcast on the big screen changed.
Inside the "I Love My Home" instance.
Jiang Chen glanced at the rule prompts in front of him, then ignored them.
What rules are based on impermanence?
Sorry, he is the rule!
Just then, I heard footsteps coming from the direction of the kitchen behind me.
The heavy, wet footsteps sounded to Jiang Chen as if something heavy was dragging on the ground.
He turned around.
He happened to make eye contact with a "woman" who was walking out of the kitchen.
She was wearing an apron stained with oil and carrying a large pot in her hand.
Steam was bubbling in the pot when a bubble burst, revealing a dead rat's head.
It appeared both eerie and terrifying.
"Child, you're awake?"
The woman's voice was extremely hoarse and shrill, like sandpaper rubbing against the skin: "Come and eat, Mom made your favorite dish... chicken necks."
When she mentioned the chicken neck, the woman gave a strange smile.
Seeing the other person's incredibly chilling smile, Jiang Chen didn't say anything.
At this moment, his eyes were completely drawn to the pot of "chicken necks".
"Hmm, this is... Yin food?!"
In Jiang Chen's perception, that pot of so-called chicken necks was formed from extremely abundant yin energy.
That is, Yin food.
There is also food for the dead in the underworld, since these ghosts cannot eat food from the mortal world.
That's how Yin food came about. Although Yin food looks rather unappealing.
However, it contains a large amount of Yin energy, which can be directly absorbed and refined after being swallowed.
It's truly a great product.
"I never expected to encounter Yin Food in this strange place."
Even as a person of death, he couldn't afford to eat food for the dead with his salary.
Even if they can eat, they only eat low-level yin foods.
It doesn't look like this pot of "chicken necks" at all, which is supposed to be a high-grade yin food.
and so……
"Oh, thank you for your hard work, Mom. I'm hungry too."
Jiang Chen revealed a bright smile and pulled out a chair without hesitation to sit down.
The mother was taken aback at first, but then immediately realized what was happening.
The smile on his face grew increasingly eerie.
She walked slowly forward and, smiling, placed the large pot on the dining table.
A pair of empty pupils, seemingly filled with swirling dark smoke, stared intently at Jiang Chen.
That hoarse and unpleasant voice rang out again: "Baby, you must... finish it all."
Rule number one: You must finish all the food Mom cooks. Mom hates children who waste food.
Jiang Chen knew without even thinking that the consequences of breaking the rules would definitely not be a pleasant experience.
But for him, this was not a punishment, but a reward.
Thinking of this, Jiang Chen's lips curled up imperceptibly.
"Thank you, Mom!"
After saying that, Jiang Chen no longer hesitated, picked up the soup ladle from the pot, scooped out a spoonful of the black soup, and put it in a bowl along with the so-called chicken neck.
Then, under the bewildered, terrified, and confused gazes of hundreds of millions of Chinese viewers in the live stream, Jiang Chen began his actions.
Jiang Chen picked up his chopsticks, grabbed a piece of what was supposed to be chicken neck, and put it in his mouth.
They started chewing it with a crunching sound.
They would occasionally sip a mouthful of the black broth.
After he finished drinking, a smile of immense enjoyment and happiness appeared on his face.
……
The Dragon Kingdom's exclusive live stream room was initially quiet, then completely exploded.
"???"
"What's going on? Dude, you're really going to eat it?!"
"Dude, do you have to be so greedy? Greed will only get you into trouble!"
"It's over, it's all over. That pot of 'chicken necks' looks like it's highly poisonous. This guy probably died right after eating it."
"Waaaaah! What should I do? I don't want to die! I don't want to die!"
……
The other Chinese viewers in the live stream were initially taken aback by what they saw the Chinese player doing on screen.
He then burst into maniacal laughter.
"Hahaha! You Chinese are really incredibly stupid, falling right into such a simple trap. You Chinese are adorably foolish!"
"Hey, you're still as adorably silly as ever, Chinese!"
"Hahaha!"
Seeing these mocking comments, the Chinese wanted to retort.
But seeing the figure enjoying the meal in the video, he swallowed back all the words he wanted to say.
……
Quiet, still, silent.
The entire research group was eerily quiet.
Everyone present stared at Jiang Chen in the video with astonished looks.
At that moment, they had only one thought in their minds: the Dragon Kingdom was doomed.
Even the usually composed old man's lips twitched, revealing a helpless expression.
"Alas, is this the fate of our Dragon Kingdom?"
……
"Hahaha!"
"Hahaha!"
"This challenger from the Dragon Kingdom is really... really... hahaha."
Endless laughter emanated from the bizarre dungeon investigation team in the beautiful country.
They watched Jiang Chen feasting on the screen, their hearts filled with mockery and contempt.
"Oh, the people of China really know how to surprise people."
"Who says otherwise? Once this dungeon challenge is over, the Dragon Kingdom will be in an irreversible situation, and then we can..."
Although the man didn't finish his sentence, everyone present knew what he was going to say.
The group exchanged glances, their unspoken understanding unspoken.
"Oh, right, let's go see John instead. There's not much to see in China."
"Anyway, the ending was already predetermined."
Upon hearing this, everyone smiled knowingly and stopped watching the Dragon Kingdom's exclusive live stream.
He then turned his attention to his own challenger.
……
Inside the "I Love My Home" instance.
At this moment, Jiang Chen was unaware that his series of actions had caused a dramatic change in the outside world.
However, even if he knew, he wouldn't care.
Jiang Chen is currently immersed in the satisfaction brought about by consuming the Yin food.
"Ugh! I'm so full!"
"I haven't felt this full in a long time."
Jiang Chen sat in the chair, a satisfied smile on his face.
Thinking back to how dignified he was, what kind of food did he eat before?
"I really hope I can keep eating this forever."
Jiang Chen knew this was impossible; food in the underworld was too expensive.
Being able to eat here in this strange place is already a great opportunity.
Since he didn't want to delay, he began to refine the essence of the Yin food he had devoured by practicing the ghost cultivation method taught by the Underworld.
As Jiang Chen continued to refine his soul, it strengthened at a visible rate.
Their strength has improved by leaps and bounds.
Early stage of the Fierce Ghost... Peak of the early stage of the Fierce Ghost... Steadily progressing towards the middle stage of the Fierce Ghost.
After an unknown amount of time, a crisp and melodious cracking sound came from inside Jiang Chen's body.
His cultivation level has also reached the mid-stage of the Fierce Ghost realm!
"Smack! That felt good!"
Jiang Chen slammed his hand on the table and stood up abruptly.
However, the movement was too large, causing the bowls and chopsticks on the table to clang loudly.
And just like that, a bowl and chopsticks fell straight to the ground and smashed to pieces with a "crack!"
Quiet, still, silent.
The living room suddenly became eerily quiet.
Looking at the bowls and chopsticks that were smashed to pieces on the ground.
Jiang Chen was stunned for a moment.
Then a rule came to mind.
Rule Six: Mom likes a clean room.
Sure enough, the next second, the mother, who had originally been in human form, began to twist and change her entire body.
It kept emitting hoarse and unpleasant screams.
"Baby, why? Why?"
"Don't you know that Mom loves cleanliness the most?"
"Why, why do you have to make the room dirty?"
"Don't you know how hard Mom works doing housework?!"
