Chapter 423: Chapter 422: Spicy Crayfish
Jianxiong 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 instrunts, 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 search that evening for recipes that might produce antibiotics or sothing of the sort.
“I agree,” Zhao Changsheng raised his hand.
“I’m going to exchange so items. After trekking so long, we should enjoy a good al tonight,” Su Mo said as she stood up and walked towards the kitchen.
…
Following a subordinate, Admiral Rong entered a tent tucked in the corner of the refugee camp, dedicated to him. Inside, five patients lay with several anxious doctors by their side.
Wearing a mask, Rong Bai entered and saw a soldier on a small bed, straining as he coughed, his face flushed with fever.
“The dicine isn’t working?”
“It seems like acute flu, and we lack enough antibiotics and other dications, which makes it difficult.”
“Admiral Rong, I am okay,” the soldier said weakly after wiping his mouth.
In this tent, all the soldiers under Rong Bai’s command had superpowers. Sohow they had contracted the flu, leaving him feeling helpless.
“How much longer can we hold out?”
“Only two more weeks. We really don’t have enough dication left,” they replied.
“Understood,” Rong Bai walked over and put his hand on the soldier’s shoulder, saying solemnly, “Stay calm. I will definitely bring back the dication for you.”
With a serious expression, he walked out, tore off his mask, and looking at the slightly darkening sky, he sighed deeply.
…
The lobster, which had been soaking in the pond for who knows how long, was finally taken out by Su Mo.
Jiang Yulian gathered a large basin of water and the two of them squeezed into the kitchen to wash the lobster.
Upon seeing the lively lobster, Jianxiong’s mouth started to salivate. He stood at the kitchen door and shouted inside, “Sister, make it with thirteen spices!”
Su Mo laughed, “Sure, lobster feast tonight. I’ll make several flavors.”
She nearly cleaned out all the overflowing lobsters from the entire pond, then put in a new batch of fish and shrimp.
Luckily, the water in the system pond was very clean. Not a speck of dirt clung to the lobsters, but by the ti they finished cutting the heads off and dealing with the digestive tract, two hours had already passed.
She had seen the lobster’s status bonus in the System Bag’s recipes earlier, which were expensive, and she hadn’t bought them at the ti. But now, she generously spent five thousand points to purchase them.
Out of the many flavors, only the spicy Sichuan lobster ca with a status bonus.
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 slls amazing!” Jianxiong, who wasn’t afraid of spice, took a deep sniff.
At the mont the lobsters hit the wok, they made a crackling sound. Due to the cooking thod, 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 sll sothing 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 co over tonight, and after she had stir-fried the beer, sugar, and so onions and reduced the sauce, soone knocked on the door.
Lv Mao, holding a box of beer, stood beside Feng Yao and a few other brothers who had co to freeload a al.
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 tis.
“Let them in,” Su Mo said while plating, looking at the data popping up on the panel in front of her.
[Na]: 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 ti 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 tid this perfectly to co 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 ti since you t with Rong Bai, so tonight everyone can eat their fill.”
Su Mo also agreed, “Everyone, co and taste my cooking. Next ti I’ll start charging.”
For a mont, everyone was unsure of what she ant.
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 sll.
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 becos 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, “Co 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 sowhat 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 at were stimulated by the numbing spice and aroma, finding the deliciousness too good to swallow imdiately.
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!”
