Chapter 921 - 924: Earth’s Buns
"Why are you holding my shoulder? Don’t you know men and women shouldn’t touch each other?" The little one turned her head calmly, looking at the man in black. Her big eyes didn’t show any worry or fear.
Seeing the little one so calm, the man in black felt a sudden unease in his heart,
No, no, no, the other party is just a child, only four and a half years old, what’s the big deal?
"Little sister, come with me." After saying this, the man in black forcefully tried to take the little one away.
"Shine, magical beast." The little one suddenly spoke,
Hmm?
Who is this child calling?
The man in black looked around, there was no one else, no Beast Clan, what "shining magical beast"?
The man in black didn’t understand.
He didn’t notice the hairpin the size of a firefly on the little one’s head, suddenly emitting invisible waves.
"Where am I?"
The man in black was completely trapped in an illusion realm, where he was bitten by thousands of snakes,
Finally, dying within the illusion realm.
This man in black was a guard of the Su Family, in the third rank of Foundation Establishment Realm, an adult, yet could never be a match for the little one. The little one had a shining magical beast and Nezha’s soul guiding her,
Already standing in an unbeaten position before this guard.
... At this moment, Wu Tian and Qin Yuhan were in the kitchen,
Qin Yuhan’s pan-fried buns were mediocre; no one should expect a beautiful CEO to be good at cooking.
The little one ate just one, then went to play, which hurt Qin Yuhan’s feelings,
So she asked Wu Tian to teach her pan-fried buns.
Pan-fried buns are a traditional snack with local flavors in the Earth City, belonging to the Henan Cuisine category.
They are flat and round, with a golden-yellow color on top and bottom. The filling, whether meat or vegetarian, is mixed with scallions, ginger, five-spice powder, sesame oil, and fine salt. The dough is made from fermented wheat flour, placed in a flat pan for a short time, then water with dough added, finally drizzled with sesame oil, flipped once, and served, becoming a popular food among the people.
Wu Tian carefully began teaching Qin Yuhan how to make pan-fried buns,
Knowing the little one wanted to eat them, Qin Yuhan learned extraordinarily seriously, focused, concentrated—phrases that all could describe Qin Yuhan at this moment,
Making Wu Tian sigh unconsciously, Qin Yuhan was so focused, not for him but for the child. Yet Wu Tian was not narrow-minded and taught everything he knew.
Pan-fried buns are naturally delicious but not the best among buns.
Buns originated in the Dragon Country, inhabited by the descendants of Yan and Huang from Earth City,
And pan-fried buns are delicious, but merely one of the ten famous buns.
Among the ten buns, the most famous is the Goubuli bun; it is particularly popular for its fine ingredients and elaborate preparation.
The second is Han Baozi, which secured its place in Chengdu due to its especially delicious taste.
Then there are New Frontier baked buns, Nanxiang small steamed buns, Ding Lianfang thousand-layer buns, Kaizhifeng soup buns, Yang City barbecued pork buns, Guangzhou Pacific, custard buns,
And pan-fried buns, being one of the famous dishes of Southwest Shandong, flat and round, golden-yellow on top and bottom, crispy outside, juicy inside, with an excellent taste,
In Earth City, only old and famous shops make pan-fried buns that are up to standard.
Generally, street vendors and small shops make pan-fried buns that are just average buns with a little bit of golden color, with not much difference from usual buns.
After instructing Qin Yuhan, Wu Tian left the kitchen,
Headed to the back garden, where he saw Dao Feng and others, frowning in the garden,
Seeing Wu Tian return, Dao Feng and others showed a grave expression, opening their mouths to say something that surprised Wu Tian.
"Sect Leader, it’s not good, Gugu has killed someone in the Su Mansion." Hearing Dao Feng’s words, Wu Tian’s face turned serious.
His own child,
He still understood.
How could the little one easily go and kill someone?
Usually, if a person doesn’t offend the little one,
The little one definitely wouldn’t resort to such harsh methods.
You know, the little one likes to show off. If she could show off verbally, she wouldn’t use her hands.
"Who was the person killed?" Wu Tian asked Dao Feng seriously.
Often, when someone is killed, who the other party was is critical.
If the person is insignificant, then it’s not a big deal.
Even if Bao Zheng were alive,
Killing a prince or a commoner due to a mistake, the treatment and the final result would be completely different.
"The person killed was an existence in the Foundation Establishment Realm, said to be the head guard of the Su Mansion." Dao Feng spoke solemnly.
The Su Family couldn’t possibly let an ordinary person be the head of their guards.
This head guard’s strength wasn’t great, which means he wasn’t in that position because of strength.
He relied on relationships. Probably, this head guard was some relative of Su Tiankuang.
"Daji, how much do you know about this head guard?" Wu Tian called Daji over to inquire about the situation,
Daji also detailedly told Wu Tian the head guard’s name was Su Shi, indeed a relative of the Su Family. Daji mentioned that Su Shi, strictly speaking, might be her cousin.
Yet Daji didn’t understand either, how did Su Shi die at the hands of the little one?
"Where’s the body?" Wu Tian asked,
"It was taken away by the Su Family Head immediately." Dao Feng also found this suspicious, and said, "Gugu is with the Sect Leader’s wife."
Wu Tian nodded.
"Wu Tian, how could you do this? Allowing your daughter to commit murder?" At this moment, a booming voice rang out, it was Su Tiankuang’s voice,
His presence wasn’t there yet, but his voice arrived first.
"Hmph." Wu Tian sneered. He had long seen through what kind of person this Su Tiankuang was.
Moreover, this time Wu Tian felt at ease. The little one killed Su Shi, but perhaps Su Shi deserved to die.
Now, Su Tiankuang rushed ahead and came over, with quite a few Su Family guards behind him, carrying a stretcher. On the stretcher was a dead body,
It was the deceased Su Shi,
But the body wasn’t wearing black, it had already been changed to ordinary clothes.
"Family Head Su, storming here in anger, what do you want?" Wu Tian calmly fixed his eyes on Su Tiankuang and asked.
"Hmph, you know very well what I’m here for! My nephew is dead, I want justice for him." Su Tiankuang’s gaze was fixed on Wu Tian as he shouted.
He didn’t expect that the cold strategist wouldn’t personally act to kidnap the little one and let Su Shi do it.
He also didn’t expect Su Shi ended up dead?
Who would believe it if it were told?
A four-year-old child has such abilities?
But later, Su Tiankuang thought, such an outcome isn’t bad either.
Wu Tian’s daughter killed his nephew, Wu Tian would have to give some compensation, right?
"Ridiculous! What justice?" Wu Tian sneered a few times, shaking his head, "Su Tiankuang, I understand your intentions. But your methods are just too clumsy?"
