Chapter 15: Secret Society and Gathering
Accompanied by the terrifying sound of the chainsaw cutting through flesh, with a few clattering sounds, Li Yu's hands and feet fell to the ground one after another. The broken ends were charred black, which was the unique cauterizing and hemostatic function of the chainsaw sword.
Although he was mutating and had already twisted his own neck.
He could still hear and see, and feel everything.
Five senses doubled!
This was originally a benefit, an extraordinary ability.
But when he was injured, it became a curse. Terrible pain drowned Li Yu, almost causing him to fall into a coma directly.
"If I could return to my hometown, I could brag about what it feels like to have my neck twisted and my limbs cut off."
"Pain, extraordinary pain."
"Being cut by my own maid is also very painful."
As Li Yu wailed in his heart, the mutation on his body suddenly stopped.
Many abnormalities quickly converged and returned to human form.
The face in his belly, which was originally twisted with joy because the host had made Spirit Food, now turned into anger.
But instinct still drove it to use strange powers to repair the damaged shell.
First, his neck was twisted, then his limbs were cut off... fine flesh buds spread out, and soon Li Yu, who was lying on the ground like a human pig, possessed a pair of pink little hands and a pair of pink little feet, and quickly transformed toward maturity.
During this process, Li Yu also recovered his sobriety.
He didn't get up, but shouted weakly:
"I've made a fool of myself in front of the guests!"
"Hongdou, serve the food."
"Yes, Master!"
As soon as the order came, Hongdou obediently put away the ferocious chainsaw sword and began to send the Spirit Food that had been prepared in the kitchen to the courtyard.
Very quickly, as the lids of the kitchen utensils were opened, all kinds of light and strange phenomena filled the courtyard.
The evil cultivators were originally immersed in the cruel way Li Yu dealt with the mutation and possession, but at this time, their attention was attracted by the Spirit Food.
Even Zhu Mei couldn't be an exception, let alone them.
The previous complaints and retorts disappeared, replaced by the sounds of eating.
Except for Zhu Mei's wild style, most evil cultivators chose to chew slowly.
Although they were all richer than Jiao Qing and Sun Sanniang, they didn't have many opportunities to eat Spirit Food. One was that it was very expensive, and the other was that there weren't many places that could provide Spirit Food.
For example, if they went to the Garuda Grand Restaurant in the East District or the Buddha-Jumping-Over-the-Wall Restaurant in the West District, they wouldn't even be qualified to go to the higher floors, and even if they barely went up, they would have to bear unknown risks, such as accidentally angering a high-sequence powerhouse and being slaughtered directly.
Such things were too common in Wanfu City.
This was also why, when Li Yu said he could cook Spirit Food and sent an invitation, they agreed immediately.
While the evil cultivator diners were eating happily, Li Yu, who was lying on the kitchen floor, felt a joy in his heart as he looked at his eye membrane.
The third Truth Bubble was full.
A larger fourth bubble was also lit up and recharged a little bit.
"Now I have two Truth Bubbles, which means I can use the power of 【Analyze All Things】 twice."
"The second and third ones should be larger in turn, which should mean more time and a larger range."
"The first goal has been achieved, let's try the second one."
Li Yu could still think calmly in his heart, but in reality, he didn't have much time and was extremely urgent.
The experience and feelings just now verified that his previous guess was a bit wrong.
The number of times he could borrow the power of Cai Ren!
I'm afraid there won't be three or four times.
Although the Forbidden Egg only had instinct and couldn't know that Li Yu was playing with it, such violent fluctuations could cause it to stress out at any time.
Li Yu believed he could use it one more time, but the third time, he was afraid he wouldn't have a good end. Either he would be completely possessed, or the Forbidden Egg, unable to bear the disturbance, would choose to die together, forcibly breaking out of his belly regardless of the excessive consumption, and looking for the next host.
That is to say!
Li Yu must find a 【Path to Godhood】 suitable for himself as soon as possible to solve the trouble once and for all.
And right now, there was a very suitable opportunity.
Very quickly, as the Forbidden Egg fell into a deep sleep again, Li Yu's shell was also fully repaired. Although he was very weak, he could move normally.
At this time, the evil cultivators had also finished eating.
Before they could pay the bill and leave, Li Yu walked forward with a pale face, still not forgetting to adhere to his persona, a bit embarrassed, but still stiffly said:
"Fellow neighbors, please stay for a step."
"Besides this Spirit Food private kitchen, I also plan to provide a place for everyone to communicate with each other, hold gatherings, and trade."
"Guaranteed to be secret, with no one to disturb."
After Li Yu finished speaking, he pointed to the storage room that was covered with forbidden talismans and iron chains.
It was just that without any suspense, all the evil cultivators showed contemptuous smiles when they heard this.
"Kid, you're about to die, and you're still thinking about expanding your business."
"Even if you don't die, you're just a restaurant owner, with diners coming and going, isn't it ridiculous to say it's secret?"
What Li Yu was waiting for was these questions.
He took the opportunity to cough a few times, covering his shriveled belly, and then said stiffly:
"My private kitchen will adopt a strict secret society system."
"If a newcomer wants to come, they must have the consent of more than half of the members, otherwise there will never be new members."
These two sentences were said.
Including Zhu Mei, all the evil cultivators showed surprise and excitement.
The secret society system wasn't very fresh, but it was the first time an organizer who could cook extraordinary Spirit Food had engaged in this kind of thing. Didn't this mean that Li Yu would become their exclusive chef in the future?
The temptation was suddenly much greater.
Every "Spirit Food chef" in Wanfu City was a rare talent. If they weren't big shots, they couldn't enjoy exclusive treatment at all.
Seeing them show the expected look, Li Yu added:
"If everyone agrees, every private banquet after this will be discounted by forty percent."
"No, fifty percent."
"Hiss!"
"Kid, what are you...?"
As soon as the discount magic weapon was offered, everyone was moved, and their emotions were immediately stirred by Li Yu.
Before they could continue to hesitate and question, Li Yu suddenly took out three strange things at once.
It was the Filthy Boning Knife, Poisonous Brain Matter, and Human Skin Scroll.
With a face full of struggle and reluctance, all turned into a face of going all out, and he said frankly:
"For the first transaction, I am willing to initiate it."
=9+Book_Bar
"These three things all come from the 【Forbidden God Sect】. Holding this knife allows you to possess extraordinary sword techniques. This brain matter is extremely poisonous, one drop can kill hundreds of people. This human skin scroll records a 'Cai Ren Song,' which can be chanted frequently to create a spiritual response with the Forbidden God..."
"In addition, I also possess a formula for Cai Ren secret medicine, which can also be traded."
"What I am seeking is a strange thing or secret technique that can suppress or devour the Forbidden Egg in my belly."
"At the same time, I cannot lose my extraordinary culinary skills."
When Li Yu finished saying this.
In everyone's mind, they almost simultaneously remembered the scene they had just seen that was quite shocking: in order to resist possession, he didn't hesitate to twist his own neck, and even instructed the mechanical maid to saw off his four limbs alive if anything went wrong.
Except for a few ruthless people with unhealthy psychology, the remaining evil cultivators all felt they couldn't do it.
And now, after hearing Li Yu's thoughts and his first transaction request.
Everyone realized it, and some of the same sighs arose in their hearts:
"This kid is struggling to survive, trying to fight for his life, but it's inevitable that he is too naive. He wants the power of Cai Ren, but doesn't want to become a cannibalistic monster. Is there such a good thing in the world?"
"However, it doesn't matter if he is naive or not. This matter is indeed full of benefits. Before he dies, I can eat a few more Spirit Food meals, and they are fifty percent off. The secret society system can also guarantee secret transactions."
"Not a loss, not a loss, it's simply a big profit."
These thoughts, even Zhu Mei had them.
Even, he was the first to respond to Li Yu.
He saw this Pig Master Temple abbot suddenly smile, showing an appreciative look, looked Li Yu up and down, and then said with a look of regret:
"Pity, really a pity."
"Although I haven't checked it yet, I, Old Pig, can be sure that you kid have wisdom roots. If you weren't already parasitized by the Forbidden Egg, I would definitely save you into my Buddhism."
"I'm really curious, what kind of head would a decisive, ruthless, and intelligent person like you have if you became a Demon Monk?"
"Fox? Wolf? Or Rat?"
While speaking, Zhu Mei walked straight to the storage room.
Although he didn't say it directly, his action already represented his agreement to Li Yu's request.
With the strongest leader, the other evil cultivator diners also smiled and followed.
On the way, the ten people who felt they had taken a big advantage teased Li Yu one after another.
"It's really hard for you, kid. You must have racked your brains to survive."
"From now on, we also have an exclusive Spirit Chef."
"Kid, if you can trade for a life-saving strange thing, I suggest you continue to discount."
"Who would have thought that the cannibal couple Jiao Qing and Sun Sanniang could raise a child who would rather die than eat people? It's a big rarity."
"That brain matter, is it Jiao Boss's, or Sun Boss's?"
Listening to these triumphant laughs, Li Yu's mood was also excellent.
Most importantly, the most urgent second goal was about to be achieved.
His greatest reliance was the golden finger that came with his rebirth, which could analyze all things.
It was just that to put it into practice, Li Yu needed to create opportunities himself.
Mysterious gathering!
These four words sounded easy to operate, but they were extremely difficult.
Almost every evil cultivator was extremely cautious in their daily lives because those who weren't careful were all dead.
It was extremely difficult to get them to join a secret society and communicate with others.
Li Yu completely eliminated his sense of threat step by step, positioned himself as the exclusive Spirit Chef of the evil cultivators, and made them feel that they had taken a big advantage.
Especially when he added "I cannot lose my extraordinary culinary skills" later, it directly facilitated this matter.
As for whether Li Yu really thought so?
It was simple. If he could find a path to godhood suitable for himself and solve the Forbidden Egg in his belly, he wouldn't care if his extraordinary culinary skills were lost.
He even thought about how to leave Wanfu City safely and go to the three countries of Gan, Jing, and Li to live a good life.
"Next, it's time for my harvest."
"I just hope these evil cultivators won't let me down, and at least give me a few more secret medicine formulas."
When he moved, Li Yu's eyes fell on his eye membrane.
Two Truth Bubbles full of energy were flickering with intoxicating rainbow colors.
