Chapter 996: The Scenery Here is Just Right
Mount Xi.
In a cave dwelling at the back mountain of Myriad Heaven Palace.
Yun Jianyue and Zhu Xia sat by the cave dwelling, eating hotpot.
Zhu Xia’s tolerance for spicy food was much stronger than Yun Jianyue’s. After only a few bites, Yun Jianyue was already flushed red from the heat. This great daoist sage was sweating all over his head, and in the end had no choice but to put down his chopsticks, wipe the sweat from his forehead, and sigh, "I was not born with the fate to eat this."
Zhu Xia had just finished a piece of tripe, her cheeks only just settling down when she heard Yun Jianyue speak. She glanced at the duck intestines rolling in the pot, a bit tempted, but after thinking for a moment, she did not immediately pick them up. Instead, she looked at Yun Jianyue and comforted him, "Then next time we can eat non-spicy."
Yun Jianyue glanced at Zhu Xia and said helplessly, "If it’s not spicy, can it even be called hotpot?"
Hearing this, Zhu Xia nodded seriously. "Right, those people in the north like to eat that whatever copper pot lamb, dipping it in sesame paste. It’s not tasty at all."
Yun Jianyue smiled and said, "The world is vast, and people are many. Everyone’s tastes are different; you can’t generalize like that."
Zhu Xia was not someone who liked to reason. By now, the duck intestine was ready, so she quickly picked it up, dipped it in some sesame oil, put it in her mouth, and chewed while shaking her head. "That stuff is just not tasty!"
