"By the way, why is the only meat dish mantis shrimp …"
Song Yu sighed and complained in the kitchen.
Of course, it's because the price of meat has risen recently.
Xu Shenxing muttered in his heart.
"And is this really the meat of a mantis shrimp?"
Song Yu poked the whole piece of meat that was a little smaller than a washbasin in the bag and raised her delicate eyebrows, her face full of doubt.
"Well, it should be …"
Xu Shenxing's eyes drifted up and he answered uncertainly.
"What do you mean by 'should be', isn't this what you brought back?"
The girl's expression became even more suspicious.
"If I have to say, it's probably a close relative of mantis shrimp. Anyway, it should be edible. "
Xu Shenxing answered cautiously.
In the Bible, Leviathan, Bechymos, and Schieze were, in a sense, emergency food prepared by God for people who had survived Judgment Day. So if Leviathan was really the one recorded in the Bible, then theoretically, it should be edible.
"But what should I do?" Song Yu looked at the piece of meat in distress. "We can't really boil it in salt water like the mantis shrimp, right?"
Xu Shenxing shrugged, indicating that he couldn't help — because this guy hadn't eaten much seafood in his life. Although seafood allergy was a factor, the main reason was that he was poor …
Before the girl could figure out what to do, the piece of meat suddenly squirmed.
"…"
She put down the kitchen knife, rubbed her eyes, and then looked at the piece of meat again. "That, Shenxing, are you sure this thing is dead?"
"Of course," Xu Shenxing, who was eating oranges in the living room, answered vaguely.
This was just a piece of meat that was cut off from a Leviathan. According to the ratio, if the Leviathan was a human, this bit of meat wouldn't even be considered a chicken's eye. Do you expect a chicken's eye to have a knee-jerk reaction or what …
But just as he finished speaking, the piece of meat twitched again.
So even Xu Shenxing looked over curiously.
The next moment, a creature that looked like a miniature version of a facehugger jumped out of the meat and rushed toward Song Yu's face. The girl was so scared that her face turned pale.
Almost at the same time, Xu Shenxing also reacted at an amazing speed and threw the orange peel in his hand directly at the insect.
Not sure if it felt the destructive power of the orange peel, which was more powerful than bullets, at that moment, the facehugger sacrificed its tail at the critical moment and allowed itself to be bounced to the ceiling.
As for the orange peel, it sank into the wall.
After almost being killed, the facehugger stopped attacking Song Yu. Instead, it quickly moved around the ceiling as if it wanted to escape as soon as possible.
"Tsk, there are actually parasites in the meat? How long has it been since Leviathan bathed?"
Xu Shenxing clicked his tongue and said unhappily after his attack missed.
"Wait, what did you say this thing's meat is?" Song Yu, who had just regained his senses, turned pale with fright once again.
"I'll get rid of the insect,"
Xu Shenxing immediately wanted to brush him off.
In the end, before the bug could escape to the door or the window, it was caught by a small hand and stuffed into the mouth with a "Amma" sound. Crunch crunch crunch, the bug was eaten.
After Mo Li finished eating the worm expressionlessly, he frowned and stuck out his tongue.
"Mr. Landlord, it's not delicious at all."
"It would be strange if that kind of thing was delicious …"
"It doesn't look like a crab at all."
"Don't mistake all marine arthropods for crab-flavored …"
"Crack, crack, crack. Speak."
"That's because of the exoskeleton!"
"It smells like a Treasure Chest Monster."
"Hey, have we eaten a Treasure Chest Monster before? No, that's not the point! "
Xu Shenxing looked at Mo Li helplessly. "When did you get here?"
Because they would have to face Song Yu's parents later, in order to prevent Mo Li from causing trouble, Old Xu specially left the little guy at Sakura Apartment.
In the end, she still managed to find her way over.
"Just now. I want to eat the Leviathan too. "
As soon as she said this, there was a huge turbulence in the sea near the South Pacific Ocean, once again forming a typhoon that attacked the innocent and pitiful Merika.
"Mo Li, think about it carefully. If you eat the Leviathan in one go, you won't be able to eat it in the future. If you only take a little bit of meat like now, it can grow back in the future. This is an endless supply of meat, isn't it? "
Xu Shenxing began to guide Mo Li patiently.
Mo Li's little face suddenly showed an expression that said 'there's such a thing'.
As a matter of fact, compared to Leviathan, perhaps Bechymos and Schiz tasted better. But the problem was that these two fellows were not on Earth, but in the subspace near Earth. Relying on Old Xu's dregs of perception, there was really no way he could find these two spare grains to eat. Although it wasn't impossible to search for them by randomly swiping at the subspace, it would be a disaster if he accidentally swiped at the Flood …
"Instead of talking nonsense with Mo Li, Shenxing, can you send her back to Sakura Apartment first? My parents seem to be arriving soon. I feel that it will be very troublesome to explain when they arrive. "
Song Yu, who had finally calmed down, used a knife to stab the meat twice. When she did not find any other parasites, she shouted at Xu Shenxing.
"That's true."
Xu Shenxing was not the kind of person who liked to communicate with people. Usually, he would use the simplest and most direct method to solve problems. However, he obviously could not rely on physics to solve the problem as usual. After all, even if he was just pretending to be her boyfriend, beating up the girl's parents was a little too much …
Just as Xu Shenxing was about to take Mo Li back to Sakura Apartment by her collar, the doorbell suddenly rang.
Song Yu's face showed a bewildered expression that said 'it can't be that fast?'
After a moment of consideration, Xu Shenxing took the lead to put down Mo Li, walked to the door and opened it.
In the end, the two people outside the door appeared in front of him.
"It's you!" The middle-aged man outside the door immediately showed a surprised expression when he saw Xu Shenxing.
"Aiya, could it be that Yu 'er's boyfriend …"
The beautiful middle-aged woman looked into the room.
The man who looked like Song Yu's father blushed – it seemed that he wanted to show his strength to his daughter's boyfriend, but he did not expect that the other party was actually the young man who saved them.
As a result, this anger was stuck in his throat. He did not know whether to swallow it or spit it out. He looked like a hippopotamus.
Then, he saw Mo Li who was sitting on the sofa, shaking her legs and seriously peeling an orange. He was immediately shocked.
"Not only are you living together, you even have a goddamn daughter?!"
