Chapter 24: No choice

Luo thought about it again and again, and decided to see him in the wing

outside the bedroom.

At this time, it is not suitable to meet guests, let alone the visitor is a

young man, but she has her own considerations-the other party will not fail to

understand this truth, and even for reasons of avoiding suspicion, he should

not appear in her Within ten steps. But he knew this, but he still did, he

could only say that he had a plan in his heart.

As a genius child of the Luo family's new generation, she has seen a lot of

this incident. Xia Fan's attitude was good at first, but that doesn't mean he

will always be like this. It was a bit quicker to change her mind within two

days, but she did not exceed her worst plan.

In case the other party's attitude changes drastically, and she wants to use

the events of last night as a bargaining chip to get something from her, she

needs to let the other party know that this action is no different from

idiotic dreams.

And he has to pay the price for his wanton destruction of promises.

Under Luo You'er's "monitoring", Xia Fan walked in with a porcelain basin,

"Good evening, luckily you haven't slept yet."

What is the way to say hello? Luo Qing couldn't tell whether he was joking or

was really saying hello. "I don't think this is a suitable time to visit, you

can't tomorrow..."

She stopped in the middle of speaking, because an attractive smell of food

attracted her attention.

This has nothing to do with concentration, but an instinctive response-due to

the evacuation of the town residents, the supply of three meals has been

completely interrupted. Although the Luo family usually buys more food as a

reserve, the reserve is only for emergency purposes. It's not enough for

everyone's daily needs. Taking into account that it will last two days, Luo

Fengqing has gathered these foods and plans to distribute them to the people

who stayed on the last night.

In other words, she hasn't eaten anything for almost a day.

It’s okay when I’m busy. Once I stop, and with the fragrance coming over her

face, her body gives the most appropriate response.

Gulu...

Luo screamed softly in his stomach.

As soon as this sound was made, the momentum she had accumulated suddenly

disappeared.

The source of the fragrance is undoubtedly the porcelain basin in the

opponent's hand.

"Why are you……"

"I guess you haven't eaten dinner, so you just made more of it." Xia Fan put

the basin on the table and opened the lid. "This thing is suitable for eating

and talking. If you think it is good, you can make everyone Call it over and

try it."

Luo lightly wanted to ask him what his intention was, but when the lid was

removed, his words suddenly changed.

"This is... a crab?"

"Have you eaten before?" Xia Fan was a little surprised.

"No, but I have heard of it." Luo said, carefully examining the angular and

golden crabs in the basin. "According to legend, the upper class of Yongguo

once popularized crab-eating methods. Northern blue crabs should be mashed and

mixed with sugar to make crab sauce; The southern lake crab is larger and more

suitable for steaming. As far as I know, there are three ancient books

mentioning this, but because of its terrible shape, it is mostly used as a

seasoning or seafood, and it has not been spread since then. ."

"Don't call Luo Qing, just call Luo Baike from now on." Xia Fan whispered.

"what are you saying?"

"Ah... I said that the Luo family is worthy of the knowledge of all things,

and I know exactly what the crab does."

"But there is no record of your practice in those books." Luo said lightly

with interest, "Neither a lake crab nor a blue crab, but more like a common

small mountain crab by the stream... Is this really edible? "

Hey, that's not what your throbbing throat said.

Xia Fan did not answer, but directly pinched a crab into his mouth.

With just a light chew, the crunchy crust shattered.

Anyone who hears that click can imagine how crisp it is.

Luo You'er couldn't help it at all, and she stuffed a whole crab like Xia Fan,

then her eyes lit up.

"Sister, it's delicious!"

Once Junior Sister started her head, Luo gently couldn't stop her. She read

this silently to verify the history books, not to satisfy personal appetites,

and stretched out her hand to the porcelain basin.

When half of the crab was put into her mouth, a thick oily scent burst

instantly, covering her entire mouth. After the golden crab shell was broken,

the juice inside poured out, completely showing another taste. The last thing

that is felt by the tongue is the crab meat. After the salty aroma, it still

retains the original sweetness. The delicate shredded meat melts in the mouth.

The combination of triple taste makes the deliciousness of the crab reach a

new realm.

Sister sister’s statement is simple, but it expresses her feelings about this

dish most intuitively.

"This method... is it fried?"

Although foods cooked in hot oil are rare, Luo Gentian happens to have eaten

one or two of them-they are placed in Qiguo, and only large shops in Gyeonggi

will sell similar meals. However, whether it is spring rolls or fried noodles,

they are essentially pasta and vegetarian dishes. It was the first time she

had seen a living thing like crabs cooked with oil.

Xia Fan applauded, "Exactly. Although the rice jar in the back kitchen of the

hotel was completely removed, there was still a little condiment left. It was

probably because these things weren’t full, the townspeople didn’t take them

away. I went before. When I was in the back mountain, I found a live stream

with a lot of crabs in it, and I just found a can of vegetable oil in the

kitchen, so I made this."

More than a lot, he used vines to tie a basket, and easily caught nearly a

hundred of them-the crabs of this era obviously have not tasted the horrible

upright ape, opened a hidden stone and drove in groups Climbing in the basket,

so much so that he did not spend much effort to make up today's dinner.

Compared with the steaming method that emphasizes the original flavor, this

small crab that can catch several crabs in one slap, let alone crab roe, there

is not much meat, and when I was young, the street vendors would string it up

and fried it for sale. . However, the high-fat and high-calorie practices that

were spurned at that time were popular foods for ordinary people in ancient

times. Driven by genes, the satisfaction of rich fats is far greater than the

taste of the ingredients themselves.

As for some modern cooking techniques, such as high temperature water lock and

double frying, they are just icing on the cake which is already tempting

enough.

Luo You'er's exaggerated admiration quickly attracted the attention of others,

and in a short while, all the female disciples of the Luo family who were

guarding in the big wing gathered. Those who hadn't eaten for a day had no

resistance to this golden dish, one by one they became the captives of fried

crabs.

Luo was lightly surprised to find that in less than a quarter of an hour, the

senior sisters and sisters who were coldly treating Xia Fan had already spoken

to him without a word.

This made her feel much pressure. Judging from the current situation, she

should have been overly concerned about threatening her with reputation and

innocence. After all, that matter itself is the biggest bargaining chip, and

whether it is brought or not will not be helpful to completely tear her face.

However, the other party's visit late at night was obviously not to give them

food for nothing. The so-called cannibalism and short-handedness, if the other

party took the opportunity to make some gentle requests, such as letting the

Luo family take him to spend the night in the wild, she refused I'm afraid it

will take more time to get up.

"Okay, talk about your intentions." Luo cleared his throat lightly, and said

sternly towards Xia Fan, "Your deep-fried crab is indeed good, but the latter

is more important than the Luo family's interests. , I believe you will not

embarrass me too much."

"Unless you make crabs for us to eat every day." Luo Youer immediately added.

Luo didn't say a word, and waved her hand and gave her a hand knife.

"Hey..." The latter held his head aggrievedly, "Aren't negotiations just

bargaining? I think Master and they all talk like this."

"There are some things that can't be compromised, you give me aside!"

"Oh..." Luo Youer squatted to the corner of the room with a crab leg in his

mouth.

Xia Fan couldn't help laughing. He spread his hands and said, "I said before,

because I caught too much, so I brought you a copy, so I don’t even have to go

to the door empty-handed. As for what I want to talk about, It doesn’t have

much to do with crabs. This time I’m here to tell you that it’s not the best

choice for most people to evacuate. In fact, I have a better way to deal with

the wild night."

"You?" Luo frowned slightly in confusion. She really didn't expect the

conversation to start like this.

"Yes, but that method requires everyone to stay in Qingshan Town-the strength

of each candidate is very important. Compared to dividing into families or

teams to fight, forming a group can exert strength close to the upper limit of

everyone."

In typical paper talk, Luo Qing didn't even want to ask what his method was.

Ten people are naturally better than one person, but the premise is how to

make the interests of the ten people the same-this is also the reason why the

children of the family can take the lead. "You are not unreasonable, but other

people may not listen to you. The candidate's choice to stay or leave is

definitely not the Luo family's meaning, but their own wishes. I'm afraid I

can't help you."

"I know. I didn't intend to convince them either," Xia Fan said frankly, "just

let them have no choice."

This straightforward answer surprised Luo Wei slightly. She originally thought

that the other party was the kind of person who likes wishful thinking to make

plans, but these words seemed to mean that he was not like that.

For some reason, she suddenly felt a little uneasy.

"What do you want to discuss with me?"

"It's not a discussion, it's a telling." Xia Fan slowly shook his head,

"Because the evacuation plan was due to Luo's house~www.mtlnovel.com~ so I

think you should be the first to know."

"……"

I should know?

'S words even seemed arrogant.

She had imagined the situation where the other party threatened her without

knowing that the sky was too high, and she had also considered whether the Luo

family really had enough energy to bring another Sanmen to pass the exam, but

no matter what kind of imagination, it does not include the current situation.

Luo gently didn't know how to answer, and there was a strange silence between

the two.

What broke this silence was the hurried footsteps outside the wing and the

panic shouts of the Luo family disciples.

"It's not good, Sister Luo, it's not good!"

The door was opened, and the female disciple who rushed in looked at the crowd

chewing crabs with their mouths full of fragrance. She was taken aback, but

she quickly remembered her mission and looked at Luo softly and said, "Sister,

let go. Tai and Mu Yuan are on fire!"

"What?" Hearing this news, everyone involuntarily slowed down their swallowing

movements.

"How could it catch fire? There shouldn't be any fire spots there?"

"How is the burning? Where is the guard?"

"Does anyone put out a fire?"

"I don't know... I also saw the fire from a distance before I realized

something was wrong!" The Newspaper disciple eagerly said, "From the fire, I'm

afraid I can't save it!"

The pan suddenly fryed in the room, but Luo did not move lightly, and his

heart was cold.

What Xia Fan said suddenly rang in her ear.

"I didn't intend to convince them, as long as they had no choice."

"Not discussing, but telling."

With incredible emotions, she slowly looked towards Xia Fan.

and the latter answered in the affirmative, "I did it."
