Chapter 379
Looking at the lively scene around, Collei couldn't help but sigh.
No matter what night it was, Wanmin Restaurant was very lively.
Hearing Collei's words, Lin Mo smiled faintly and said: "Looking at all the restaurants in Liyue, every dish here in Wanmin Restaurant is so delicious, and the price is close to the people. It's normal for many people to like coming here."
Wanmin Restaurant being lively was not beyond his expectation.
Under the exchange of several people, time passed quietly.
I don't know how long "700" passed, Chef Mao finally brought the dinner ordered by Lin Mo and the others.
"Hehe, the grilled Tiger Fish is here."
Looking at Chef Mao with a proud smile, carefully placing a plate of grilled Tiger Fish in front of them, Hu Tao squinted her eyes: "This fish is enough for us to celebrate tonight."
The exterior of the grilled Tiger Fish was golden yellow, grilled just right. The slightly upturned edges on the fish skin were crispy and delicious, shining with alluring oil, making people feel its delicious texture at a glance. The fish meat was firm and juicy, and through the translucent fish meat, you could see the delicate arrangement of the fish meat fibers, each piece like a work of art carefully carved.
The fish was drizzled with a special sauce. This sauce was bright red, with a rich taste that did not overwhelm the freshness of the fish meat, perfectly setting off the tenderness of the fish meat.
The sauce blended a variety of spices and seasonings, emitting a complex aroma that mixed sweet, salty, and slightly spicy, making people drool.
As for the side dishes, Chef Mao also put a lot of effort into it.
Colorful seasonal vegetables were placed around the plate, with crispy green beans, orange-red carrot slices, and emerald green broccoli, which not only added color to the dish but also added rich layers to the whole plate. These vegetables were lightly steamed, retaining their natural taste and nutrition, forming a perfect match with the aroma of the grilled fish.
In addition, there were a few lemon slices and a pinch of fresh herbs, adding a touch of freshness and vitality to the dish. The sourness of the lemon and the freshness of the fish meat set each other off, increasing the layers and richness of the whole dish.
Looking at this grilled Tiger Fish, Collei's eyes lit up, and she couldn't wait to pick up her chopsticks and start tasting this grilled Tiger Fish.
When the fish meat entered her mouth, Collei immediately felt the delicacy and juiciness of the fish meat in her mouth. The freshness of the fish meat, the richness of the sauce, and the freshness of the vegetables intertwined into a perfect taste scroll in her mouth.
Every bite was the ultimate temptation to the taste buds, making Collei unable to help but praise it again and again.
The three of them ate around the Tiger Fish.
It wasn't until the Tiger Fish and the side dishes were eaten clean that they paid the bill and walked out of Wanmin Restaurant.
"So comfortable."
Hu Tao, who walked out of Wanmin Restaurant, patted her stomach without any image, squinting her beautiful plum-blossom pupils in satisfaction: "After eating and drinking tonight, I need to exercise more to digest."
"Director, Director."
At this time, a hurried call sounded.
Only to see Old Meng running quickly from a distance. Seeing Hu Tao, he looked excited and said quickly: "I've prepared everything over there, just waiting for you."
"Really can't stop for a moment."
Seeing Old Meng running over, Hu Tao sighed and said: "Forget it, forget it, we should go back too."
Saying this, she looked at Old Meng: "Let's go."
Under Hu Tao's lead, Lin Mo and Collei soon arrived at the destination.
This was outside Liyue City, in the direction close to the Sea of Clouds.
This was in a very empty venue, where a cornerstone was standing quietly.
Beside it, Luo Cheng was waiting anxiously.
When he saw Hu Tao and the others arriving, his expression was ecstatic. The Director of the Wangsheng Funeral Parlor finally arrived.
"Is this the thing you just said Hu Tao would use to act?"
Collei, who was following Hu Tao, looked at the cornerstone and said in a low voice: "What is that thing."
"It's a Ley Line Monolith."
Hu Tao whispered: "It's something this Director uses to act. My Wangsheng Funeral Parlor has several more. If you need it next time, you can take a few back."
"Oh, oh."
Hearing Hu Tao's words, Collei nodded gently.
But the next second, she shook her head suddenly.
God, what was she thinking.
She didn't need this either.
"Director Hu Tao, you finally arrived."
While Hu Tao was speaking, Luo Cheng, who had already run over, said hurriedly: "What do I need to do?"
"You don't need to do anything."
Hu Tao shook her head and waved her hand casually: "This is a special way for this Director to exorcise evil. It can attract the curse out of your body and then materialize it. Don't worry about danger; I am here."
Seeing Hu Tao's casual appearance, Luo Cheng's heart skipped a beat, and he said cautiously: "Is it really no problem?"
How come this Director of the Wangsheng Funeral Parlor didn't look reliable.
"You should just trust the Director."
Beside him, Old Meng explained for Hu Tao: "Although Hu Tao looks a bit strange, Director Hu Tao is still very serious about doing things."
Hu Tao: "????"
Hearing this, Hu Tao's face turned black. What's wrong with this new employee?
How could he use "strange" to describe her?
Shouldn't it be innocent and unconventional?
"Forget it, I won't be as knowledgeable as you."
Hu Tao curled her lips: "This Director is going to activate the Ley Line Monolith now, you better watch carefully."
Saying this, Hu Tao immediately activated the Ley Line Monolith.
When Hu Tao's fingers touched the Ley Line Monolith lightly, the power of the elements vibrated.
Instantly, the monolith began to emit a faint light.
Then this light gradually became strong, as if it wanted to dye the surrounding air with a layer of mysterious color.
With the release of energy, the ground vibrated slightly, and the surrounding environment seemed to respond to this power.
Soon, a mysterious energy fluctuation radiated from the monolith, forming an invisible ripple, spreading to the surroundings.
This ripple seemed to touch some deep secret, triggering an unusual reaction.
Just then, a sound of running came from afar.
Luo Cheng looked in that direction, only to see a group of monsters of various shapes running from the darkness, their eyes flashing with greedy and wild light.
This sudden change surprised Luo Cheng, and he subconsciously took a step back, shocked: "The Wangsheng Funeral Parlor can actually materialize a curse."
"Boom!"
While Luo Cheng was shocked, Hu Tao struck like lightning. Under the urging of the Pyro Vision, the monstrous flames descended, instantly enveloping the monsters that were running over.
These monsters didn't even make a scream before they were instantly burned into dust and dissipated on the spot.
Luo Cheng stood aside, witnessing all this, his eyes full of shock and awe.
And Hu Tao turned her gaze to Luo Cheng, a trace of playfulness flashing in her eyes: "How is it? Do you feel that the curse has been dispelled?"
"Yes!"
Hearing Hu Tao's words, Luo Cheng nodded like a chick pecking at rice and said quickly: "Unprecedented comfort, it's a healthy feeling."
"Thank you very much. I will make a banner for your Wangsheng Funeral Parlor to thank you. If it weren't for you, Director, I might have really died suddenly because of the curse."
"Clang, clang! You've been tricked!"
Looking at Luo Cheng's appearance, Hu Tao put her hands on her hips, looking proud: "It seems this Director acted well."
"Ah?"
Seeing Hu Tao's sudden action, Luo Cheng widened his eyes: "What do you mean?"
He was tricked?
How could that be.
"This thing, ordinary people can't touch it, but it's actually just an ordinary Ley Line Monolith. It's very easy to attract monsters over."
Hu Tao looked at the Ley Line Monolith and spread her hands casually: "Those monsters are not the materialization of any curse at all; they are real monsters."
"So it's strange, clearly I didn't do anything, but you feel completely fine. What does that mean?"
"I, I wasn't cursed?"
Hearing Hu Tao's words, Luo Cheng looked blank. He wasn't cursed?
But the next second, Luo Cheng said hurriedly: "But didn't I get sick?"
"You caught a cold, ate something bad, or scared yourself, all are possible."
Hu Tao spread her hands: "I tend to the last one, it's a common disease here."
Hearing this, Luo Cheng's expression was brilliant.
In the end, everything was just him scaring himself?
Luo Cheng took a few deep breaths, finally looked at Hu Tao, sighed, and bowed solemnly: "Regardless, I still want to thank Director Hu Tao first. I will pay the money belonging to the Wangsheng Funeral Parlor. If it weren't for your Wangsheng Funeral Parlor, I would also know the truth." ===== CHAPTER 380 =====
