Chapter 188: Sour, Bitter, Spicy Warming Soup

In Yu Tianhong's room.

On a table, there were several small stoves powered by fire spirit ore, and on top of them were several small pots with something cooking in them.

Yu Tianhong was holding peppercorns and standing in front of a pot of thick soup, looking a little hesitant.

Ji Heyu stood beside him with an interested smile on his face.

"Put it in and try it. I heard that some mortals in the polar regions drink this kind of soup to keep warm."

Yu Tianhong still didn't quite believe it, "Senior Rufeng, do you really need to sprinkle a handful of peppercorns into such a small amount of food?"

Peppercorns are both spicy and numbing, and he usually only puts a little bit of them in his dishes.

Yu Tianhong felt that it was unreliable. With such a large amount, if it were cooked into soup, even a monster at the Solid Dan realm would be paralyzed.

Ji Heyu was eager to try, "Don't worry, I'll be the one drinking, what are you worried about?"

He is very cold now, and drinking some spicy soup to warm him up is just right.

Yu Tianhong: “…”

He couldn't bear to watch it so he sprinkled all the peppercorns in and stirred them evenly.

The peppercorns quickly dissolved in the soup, making the color look much better. The soup, which was already fragrant, suddenly had a peppery flavor.

Yu Tianhong showed surprise on her face, "Is it really useful?"

Ji Heyu also showed some surprise on his face, "It smells so good."

Yu Tianhong thought for a moment, scooped out a bowl and placed it in front of Ji Heyu, with a sincere expression, "Senior Rufeng, would you like to try it?"

Ji Heyu blinked and was about to say something when he heard footsteps outside.

Then Yan Ping appeared at the door, his lazy spirit slightly perked up by the stimulation of the pepper fragrance.

He sat down at the table, glanced at Ji Heyu and Yu Tianhong, and his eyes fell on the bowl of fragrant soup.

Ji Heyu's peach blossom eyes turned and then revealed a beautiful smile.

"Yu Tianhong's new product can keep you warm, would you like to try it?"

Yu Tianhong's eyes suddenly widened, and just as she was about to say something, she was frozen in place by a talisman paper from Ji Heyu.

Yan Ping had come here to eat, and when he saw what they were doing, he narrowed his eyes.

"New product?"

Ji Heyu smiled and nodded, happily placed the bowl of thick soup in front of him in front of Yan Ping, and considerately handed him a spoon.

"The food of the polar mortals tastes very good."

Yan Ping was somewhat interested, but there was something obviously wrong with Ji Heyu's current behavior.

He picked up the spoon and stirred the bowl. There was nothing unusual. Instead, the aroma of pepper became more obvious as he stirred it.

Wen Ye followed behind Yan Ping, his eyes first passing over Ji Heyu, then looking at Yu Tianhong who was obviously abnormal, and finally falling on the bowl of soup.

"Senior, let me give it a try."

Yan Ping shook his head slightly and glanced at Ji Heyu with a smile.

"I'll do it myself."

As Yan Ping said this, he stopped stirring and took a sip with a spoon.

As soon as you take a bite, a numbing and spicy taste instantly appears on your taste buds.

The next second, a sour and bitter feeling appeared underneath the spicy taste.

Yan Ping froze. This familiar smell of horror reminded him of someone.

Yan Ping: “…”

If he hadn't realized it earlier, he might not have been able to control the expression on his face.

Memories that had been deposited for a long time were brought up, but he did not recall them carefully. The longer the soup stayed in his mouth, the more charming it tasted.

He collected his thoughts, his Adam's apple rolled slightly, and swallowed the soup.

Yu Tianhong looked at Yan Ping nervously, and only breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Yan Ping drink the soup as usual.

It doesn't seem to be very bad to drink, at least it didn't harm Yan Ping.

Ji Heyu's expression was a little subtle, and Yan Ping's expression clearly showed that the soup had some magical effect.

But does it taste good or not?

Ji Heyu felt a kind of heart-wrenching curiosity.

Yan Ping finished drinking the soup, put the spoon aside, and glanced at Ji Heyu lightly.

“The taste is average.”

Then Yan Ping turned and left.

Wen Ye was a little confused, but he still followed Yan Ping because he had something to say to Yan Ping.

After they left, Ji Heyu's eyes fell on the bowl of soup.

“It should taste good…”

Maybe it's not that bad. After all, Yan Ping swallowed it, so it can't be particularly bad.

Generally speaking, maybe they just wanted to scare him, making him feel that the soup doesn't taste good and miss it.

A gleam of eagerness appeared in Ji Heyu's eyes.

Yu Tianhong glared at him, wanting him to remove the talisman that had immobilized her.

Then he saw Ji Heyu pick up the bowl and take a big sip.

The first bite into the mouth, spicy, sour and bitter.

Ji Heyu: “…”

I was careless. The taste is just average. Yan Ping can really tolerate it.

Ji Heyu glanced at Yu Tianhong who was still looking at him, and felt that he couldn't vomit or swallow.

After all, this finished product was produced under his command.

Ji Heyu thinks everyone can try it, it’s a great way to dispel cold!

He stiffened his neck and swallowed it all.

A burning spicy sensation spread from the throat to the stomach, and a heat spread throughout the body.

There was a slight click.

Ji Heyu placed the bowl on the table with a mysterious smile on his face.

“This soup tastes really good!”

He looked at Yu Tianhong, and an impeccable smile appeared on his face.

"I'll leave a bowl for you, don't say that Senior doesn't love you."

Ji Heyu said this, leaving half a bowl for Yu Tianhong, then left with the pot.

Yu Tianhong looked at Ji Heyu's departing back and her eyes widened again.

He wasn't worried about the soup, just.

If Ji Heyu wants to leave, he must remove the immobilization talisman first!

The bustling kitchen suddenly became quiet, leaving Yu Tianhong standing there.

About half an incense stick of time had passed.

Yu Tianhong's body suddenly relaxed.

As soon as he relaxed, he began to mutter.

"If you want to drink, just drink. Why do you take the pot away and eat alone?"

Yu Tianhong looked at the bowl of soup left by Ji Heyu on the table again, and recalled the different evaluations of Yan Ping and Ji Heyu.

He scratched his head, a hint of curiosity rising in his heart.

What does it smell like?

He lifted the bowl and took a sip.

The next second, Yu Tianhong's face instantly twisted.

There was a sound of rummaging through drawers in the room.

On the other side, Yan Ping returned to the room, and the first thing he did was to go back to the table and pour himself a glass of water.

Wen Ye saw his movements from behind: "..."

Think of that soup again.

He was a little amused and he poured another glass of water for Yan Ping.

"Senior, is it so unpalatable?"

Yan Ping nodded sullenly.

That soup was really unpalatable.

Mainly because the soup reminded him of a person who was stubborn and would only complain, or use his sister's words as an excuse to take advantage of others. The more he thought about it, the angrier he got.

Yan Ping couldn't help but grit his teeth when he thought about it now.

But from the bottom of my heart, there was a rare trace of warmth coming out.

Although the soup tasted unpalatable, it did have the effect of warming you up, and the warmth brought on sleepiness.

Unconsciously, Yan Ping slowly closed his eyes.

Wen Ye saw this scene nearby, took out a cloak, covered Yan Ping with it, then sat back in his seat, closed his eyes and silently recited the formation pattern.
