Chapter 29 The Four-Faced Beast That Can't Eat Spicy Food
Chapter 29 The Four-Faced Beast That Can't Eat Spicy Food
After deciding to go to Ditingjia Hot Pot, Haochen and the others thought they could start eating immediately upon arrival, but unexpectedly, Ditingjia said they needed to change their clothes.
Hao Chen watched as Di Ting tried on clothes one by one, and kept telling them when his master had given them these gifts.
He immediately felt a strong sense of showing off and muttered to himself, "What do you mean by changing clothes? This is clearly just him showing off how much his owner dotes on him."
However, there were three girls in their group, and between eating and changing clothes, Xiaoyu, Jiuyue, and Jingwei clearly chose to change clothes.
As a result, the male members were incredibly bored while waiting on the sidelines, yawning constantly, their stomachs growling, but no food was served.
Xiaoyu and the others used Diting as a male model, constantly trying out different outfits. Speaking of which, Haochen remembered that Diting seemed to be the number one male model in the underworld, and it felt like Diting could pull off any outfit.
But even if it looks good, it can't put food on the table. The Qilin originally only came here to make a little money, and right now there are still a lot of things to deal with in the shop.
Then the four-legged creature couldn't help but say, "We've been looking at clothes for so long, didn't you say you'd treat us to hot pot?"
Tianlu felt so hungry he was dizzy, his mind filled with nothing but food, and he kept drooling and muttering, "Eat, eat, eat, eat, eat, eat, eat, eat, eat, eat."
Rabbit Lord watched as Xiao Yu kept doing Di Ting's eye makeup and said helplessly, "The eye makeup is actually not bad."
Unexpectedly, Xiaoyu suddenly turned around and glared at Rabbit Lord, scaring him so much that he immediately perked up and hid behind the Four-Unlikes, trembling: "Four-Unlikes, help me!"
Yang Jian, standing to the side, winked at Bai Ze: "Bai Ze, you should quickly persuade Di Ting. How long are we going to keep testing him?"
Although watching the furry creature, Di Ting, try on clothes was amusing, Yang Jian found it difficult to handle it. That's why he seemed impatient and thought it would be better to finish his meal sooner so he could have time to stroll around Evil Dog Ridge and try his luck.
Nezha, with his equally bright and watery eyes, looked at Bai Ze with a pitiful expression: "Bai Ze~"
"Alright, alright, I understand." Bai Ze sighed, then walked to Di Ting's side: "Di Ting, why don't we start eating first?"
Di Ting, however, remained calm and said, "Sir, don't rush. There are still about a hundred items left. We'll eat after we've tested them."
As Di Ting was being chosen in September, he changed into a more ancient-style outfit. After putting it on, he struck a few poses in front of Bai Ze: "Sir, what do you think of this outfit?"
"How about this one? Or does this one look better? Which one do you prefer, sir?"
Di Ting kept asking Bai Ze for his opinion, while Bai Ze covered his face, looking like he didn't want to see Di Ting anymore. He thought to himself that he should have just let Hao Chen beat him up instead of coming here to suffer.
Seeing that Di Ting wouldn't eat until all the clothes were tried on, Yang Jian, Nezha, and the others were already so hungry that they were discussing going out to find something to eat on their own.
Hao Chen couldn't wait any longer. He stepped forward and grabbed the clothes that Di Ting was holding, saying fiercely, "Let's eat first! Do you want us to starve to death?! If you don't serve the food, I'll tear your clothes off and make you eat naked with us today."
As he spoke, Hao Chen gestured towards Tian Lu, letting Di Ting see how starved Tian Lu had become.
Di Ting watched as Tian Lu lay sprawled on the ground, muttering, "So hungry, so hungry, so hungry..."
At the same time, I heard Rabbit God complaining, "If it weren't for the four-legged creature, I wouldn't have come to this wretched place..."
At Hao Chen's urging, Di Ting stopped picking out clothes, grabbed a set to change into, and led everyone into the restaurant: "Sorry to keep you waiting, everyone. Dinner will be served shortly."
Hearing Di Ting speak, Yang Jian, Nezha, and the Four-Faced Beast finally perked up: "Is it finally time to eat...?"
Hao Chen looked at Tian Lu, who was starving, and remembered that Tian Lu had eaten the Underworld signboard because he was so hungry, which made the already unpayable bills even more unpayable.
So Hao Chen came to Tian Lu's side and secretly took out a few gold-plated, four-legged statues from his person: "Tian Lu, are you hungry? Eat some of these to fill your stomach first."
"Is this gold? Haochen, where did you get this? Are you really going to give it to me?"
Tianlu, who had been looking half-dead, suddenly became energetic after smelling the gold Haochen had taken out, his eyes filled with undisguised longing as he looked at Haochen.
Seeing how hungry the child was, Hao Chen felt a little guilty. He nodded and said, "Eat up, this is for..."
"Great!"
Before Hao Chen could finish speaking, Tian Lu excitedly ate the gold along with Hao Chen's paw.
Hao Chen rolled his eyes at Tian Lu, then pulled his paw out of Tian Lu's mouth and shook off the drool: "Tian Lu, are you starving?"
Tianlu scratched his head a little embarrassedly, then licked his lips with lingering enjoyment, and looked at Haochen again with his adorable eyes, trying to charm him.
Meanwhile, Tianlu kept sniffing Haochen's body, nuzzling Haochen's belly and saying, "Haochen, good Haochen, do you still have gold? Tianlu wants to eat it."
Hao Chen shook his head and said, "No, but I know where else you can find some. I'll take you to find them later, but don't tell anyone else, okay? Otherwise, I won't take you to look for them."
Tianlu was initially disappointed when he saw Haochen shake his head, but when he heard that Haochen knew where there was more gold, Tianlu was overjoyed and was already imagining himself eating gold in his mind.
"Haochen, Pipi, what are you two doing? Hurry up and follow us."
The voice of the four-legged creature interrupted Hao Chen and Tian Lu's conversation, forcing them to quicken their pace to catch up: "Coming soon, four-legged creature."
Hao Chen looked at Tian Lu beside him and said, "Let's go, Tian Lu."
Because there were quite a few people, Di Ting led everyone to two tables.
Yang Jian, Xiaotian, Nezha, Ao Lie, Jiu Yue, Xiao Yu, Jingwei, and Xing Tian sat at one table.
Meanwhile, Di Ting, Qi Xiang Bu Xiang, Tu Ye, Tian Lu, Hao Chen, and Bai Ze, who had been coaxed over by Di Ting, sat at the same table.
After a long wait, the hot pot was finally served: "Sorry for the wait, this is the signature dish of Hell, the 'Hell Spicy Nine-Square Hot Pot.' Please feel free to eat as much as you like. If you want anything, just tell Piao next to you to help serve it."
The Qilin looked at the bright red hot pot in front of it, but it wasn't very interested. It thought to itself: "Although I already knew we were going to eat hot pot, I thought there would be some novel hot pot in the underworld. I didn't expect it to be just like the hot pot in the mortal world. It looks so ordinary."
At the same time, the four-legged creature realized that it couldn't handle spicy food very well, and it became nervous. It had just heard that this hot pot was called the Hellish Spicy Hot Pot.
Just as the Qilin was struggling with its decision, Tianlu suddenly smelled that the plate in its hand seemed to be bronze. It subconsciously took a bite and its eyes lit up instantly: "Wow, it tastes like bronze! I've almost forgotten what bronze tastes like since I haven't had it in so long!"
Then, as if opening a new world, Tianlu first ate the bronze plate and chopsticks on his own table, and then reached out his claws toward Haochen's tableware.
However, the claws reaching towards Haochen were met with a failed attempt, as Haochen slapped them away. Tianlu immediately felt aggrieved: "Haochen, why did you hit me?"
"What do you think?" Hao Chen asked in return.
Tianlu stopped talking and looked elsewhere. He secretly slipped off the table, went to a bronze candle holder, and took a bite: "Delicious, delicious, this is really delicious."
The Qilin looked at the hot pot in front of it and finally sighed: "I still shouldn't let Di Ting's kindness go to waste. Hmm... I'll just have some vegetables. This doesn't look very spicy."
The four-legged creature added a cauliflower to its body, then cautiously licked it, and it turned out that the name "Hellfire Spicy" was well-deserved.
The Qilin instantly demonstrated to everyone what it meant to be unable to eat spicy food. It spewed fire from its mouth after being overwhelmed by the spiciness, and then fainted from the heat. Fortunately, Rabbit caught it in time, preventing it from falling to the ground.
The Qilin was really badly tormented this time; it was so spicy that a horn fell off, and it even became somewhat delirious: "Who am I...where am I??"
The scene became chaotic for a moment. Rabbit Lord held the unconscious Qilin, crying and shouting, "Qilin, what's wrong with you? You can't die! Cheer up! I won't let you die! Di Ting, give me back my Qilin! If anything happens to Qilin, I'll never forgive you!"
Meanwhile, Tianlu took the opportunity to eat some bronze artifacts from the Diting family: "Bronze is delicious, long live bronze!"
After witnessing this scene, Hao Chen couldn't help but slap his forehead, thinking to himself, "I had planned everything, but I actually forgot about this. I was just wondering if I had forgotten something."
Just as Hao Chen was about to take action to restore the Qilin, he saw that Tian Lu had eaten the bronze pot next to him at some point and was now gnawing on a sign that read "Di Fu".
"Tianlu, this is the gate number of the Diting family. You can't eat it here. Stop right now."
Tianlu chewed on the Underworld signboard, his expression still somewhat disgusted: "This is no good, it smells like mud."
