Without any hesitation, Fang Zhengzhi ran towards the stage in big strides.
When the villagers saw the sudden appearance of the "dumpling", they were confused. In addition, the sky was a little dark, so they couldn't recognize whose child it was.
"Is he trying to earn gold?"
"That can't be? I didn't see the Fire Plume Chicken in his hands? "
The villagers all had a confused look on their faces. They had no idea what was going on.
Fang Zhengzhi quickly reached the bottom of the stage. Then, lifting his butt, he leapt up onto the stage.
When Lolita Chi Guyan saw this scene, she could not help but let out a snicker. This little thief was indeed just an ordinary person.
As she thought of this, anger welled up in her. Being defeated by an ordinary person was the most humiliating thing!
"You're here to roast the Fire Plume Chicken too?" Lolita tried her best to act as if she didn't know him, her tone calm.
"Yes!" Fang Zhengzhi replied calmly.
"Then, where's your chicken?" Lolita looked at Fang Zhengzhi's hands and asked doubtfully.
"Here!" Fang Zhengzhi reached behind him and pulled out a Fire Plume Chicken from his clothes that were wrapped like a dumpling.
"It's alive!"
When the villagers below the stage saw the Fire Plume Chicken in Fang Zhengzhi's hands, they couldn't stand still. That was a chicken with feathers on its back...
"I just killed it, I haven't had the time to roast it!" Fang Zhengzhi explained.
The villagers instantly laughed. The Divine Constabulary missy just said that it was getting late and they had to leave the village. Was it too late to roast it now?
"Haha... then go ahead and roast it!" Lolita chuckled.
The smiles on the villagers' faces froze. This Divine Constabulary missy really wanted him to roast it on the spot?
"If I don't see gold, I won't roast it!" Fang Zhengzhi rejected without hesitation.
The villagers, who were already shocked, were completely stunned. How could there be such a person? The chicken hasn't even been roasted and he's already asking for gold. Is his butt itching for gold?
"Smack his butt!"
"Exactly, whose kid is this?"
"Is there anyone else who cares?!"
Many of the villagers had toiled for more than an hour, but in the end, they didn't even have the right to have a taste. Now that they heard a "dumpling" talking nonsense on the high platform, they were naturally unhappy.
"I haven't even eaten your roasted chicken, why should I give you gold?" Lolita Chi Guyan looked at Fang Zhengzhi calmly, but her tone was filled with curiosity.
"Because if I don't see gold, I won't bake!" Fang Zhengzhi did not beat around the bush. He could tell from Lolita's eyes that she recognized him.
It was obvious that the other party wanted to eat his roasted Fire Plume Chicken. Since that was the case, why hide it?
You want to eat it? Alright … I'll take the gold first! That was how confident he was!
"Haha …" Lolita Chi Guyan chuckled lightly. Then, she stretched out her hand and threw a gold ingot to Fang Zhengzhi. "Alright, I'll give you the gold first!"
Fang Zhengzhi stretched out his hand and instantly caught the gold ingot. He was very excited. Gold, my gold … you're finally in my hands. I risked my life for this!
Then, he imitated the ancient people from his past life and bit down. He realised …
That it wouldn't budge!
Alright … my teeth aren't hard enough!
Without hesitation, he stuffed the gold ingot into his pocket and felt it contentedly.
However, the villagers below the high platform were completely stunned. None of them could react. Gold … she really gave him the gold? How is this possible? If I knew this would happen, I would have caught one alive too!
No one could understand what was happening.
They couldn't understand it at all!
Mrs Li was still holding onto the bamboo-flavored roasted chicken, but her face was as green as the bamboo.
"God damn it, whose kid is this?! A chicken that doesn't even have its feathers removed in exchange for a gold ingot?! " She really wanted to rush up to the stage and peel open the "dumpling" to see what kind of "stuffing" was inside.
However, when he saw the soldiers guarding Lolita's side, he immediately suppressed that thought.
Qin Xuelian didn't pay much attention to Fang Zhengzhi on the stage. She was still immersed in her excitement, clutching the ten silvers in her hand, her eyes squinting into crescent moons.
Fang Houde, on the other hand, could not stop praising him. He spoke until his mouth was dry.
...
With the gold in his hands, Fang Zhengzhi was no longer delicate.
"Lend me a set of tools!"
Just as the voice rang out, the villagers' legs turned to jelly and they almost knelt on the ground. This guy came here with a feathery Fire Plume Chicken and didn't even bring any tools?
Very quickly, the tools were personally delivered to the stage by Village Chief Meng Bai.
Then …
Fang Zhengzhi began to meticulously remove the feathers from the Fire Plume Chicken. Then, he began to remove the innards, wash them and set up a fire rack …
All the villagers were standing below the stage, watching the show.
"He's quite skilled!"
"But there's nothing special about it?"
The villagers were puzzled, but they didn't say much, watching silently.
Lolita was observing as well. Even when Fang Zhengzhi's Fire Plume Chicken was sizzling with oil, she still couldn't see anything special.
Fang Zhengzhi was feeling somewhat depressed.
He had forgotten something very important. When you wrap yourself up like a dumpling and sit in front of the fire rack to roast the Fire Plume Chicken, you are roasting yourself as well …
Sweat dripped from his body, but there was nothing he could do.
He couldn't take it off, if he did, he would really become famous!
He fished out a tightly wrapped yellow paper bag from his pocket, then, he took out the colourful "condiments" and slowly sprinkled them evenly on the Fire Plume Chicken.
"What is that in your hand?" When the soldier saw this, he instantly became cautious.
Fang Zhengzhi raised his head to look at the soldier. The soldier was too hot to answer such a question, and could only reply coldly.
"Eat it or leave it!" This was Fang Zhengzhi's true thoughts. After all, the gold was already in his hands.
"You …" Being looked down upon by a seven year old child, the soldier wasn't too happy.
"Shut up, all of you move to the side!" When Lolita saw Fang Zhengzhi take out the bags of "condiments", her eyes lit up. When Fang Zhengzhi sprinkled the "condiments" on the Fire Plume Chicken, her face was filled with a strong sense of anticipation.
This was the same aroma she had smelled at the entrance of the village.
The rich aroma caused her to swallow her saliva. Evidently, she couldn't sit still.
Fang Zhengzhi looked at Lolita's expression and his heart skipped a beat.
"This chicken … actually has a name!"
"What's its name?" Lolita's interest was piqued.
"Speaking of its name … take a look for yourself!" Fang Zhengzhi raised his hand and threw a yellow paper bag towards Lolita Chi Guyan.
Lolita reached out and caught it.
She immediately opened it.
Then, a flash of surprise flashed across her eyes.
Because, the yellow paper bag didn't contain the chicken's name, but a sentence.
