Chapter 1364 - 1362: Spiritual Qi Recovery? (Part 2)
Chapter 1364: Chapter 1362: Spiritual Qi Recovery? (Part 2)
Of course, the ones who were even more surprised were Bai Bing, Mengmeng, and Qiaoqiao.
At first, they all thought Lin Xi wouldn’t know how to cook the food here.
So they assumed it’d just be the same dishes they usually ate.
They didn’t expect that the moment the dishes were brought up, they’d all be stunned.
As for the taste, ever since they’d eaten Lin Xi’s cooking, no matter what he made, they never doubted it.
Honestly, there hadn’t been a single time it wasn’t delicious.
And every time, the flavor was so good it practically exploded.
A full six big plates of local dishes.
In terms of portion size, it was definitely huge.
You had to know, the portions here were already big, and what Lin Xi made was two or three times larger than the local servings.
But even so, the four of them still wiped out six plates of dishes and half a steamer of rice.
Yang Feifei found it even stranger.
She could understand why the dishes tasted good—cooking skills.
But even the rice was that delicious.
That was something she really couldn’t wrap her head around.
It’s just that she no longer had the energy to think about why it tasted so good.
Because she was completely stuffed.
You could say she couldn’t even stand up.
After all, she was injured.
In the end, it was Lin Xi who picked her up and put her on the bed.
The other three girls were stuffed too.
They’d originally planned to go out, but that plan was scrapped.
The two little ones went back to their own room to rest.
Only Lin Xi, Bai Bing, and Yang Feifei were left.
Lin Xi first tidied up the room a bit, pushed the cart down, and handed it back to the boss.
He spent some money to have the dishwashing auntie in the kitchen clean everything.
Just as he returned upstairs again and was about to enter the room, he was blocked by Bai Bing.
Yeah, they needed to rest.
Him being a guy, it would be inconvenient.
Lin Xi: "....."
This was totally the classic "eat clean and wipe clean, then take no responsibility."
But he didn’t really mind.
Besides, he wasn’t as tired as the four girls, and he wasn’t stuffed either.
Or rather, for him, there was no such state as "eating till full" to begin with.
As long as he slightly circulated the Xuanyuan Divine Dragon Art, all the food in his stomach would be completely converted into energy.
Of course, this kind of energy was negligible for someone like him, practically not worth mentioning.
So he ate purely to satisfy his appetite.
Someone like him, carrying a Golden Finger on him and having reached the Innate Realm,
could totally go without food.
He could easily go ten days to half a month without eating and it wouldn’t be a problem at all.
Right!
Before leaving, he remembered something.
Those four people he had tied up like zongzi, plus the target that had died—Yang Feifei’s target.
Previously, he’d only mentioned that she had been rescued.
He hadn’t said what happened to those people.
He told Yang Feifei about it because he wanted her to rack up some merit.
Those four were definitely major criminals too.
Yang Feifei immediately nodded and called the local handler.
Otherwise, if those guys were left there for a day or two, accidents might happen.
Like dying of thirst, or starving to death.
After all, this place had a huge temperature difference between day and night.
Once night fell, going from a daytime shirt to needing a cotton jacket was about right.
Even if those four were all special forces, on the one hand they were tied up tight, so their blood circulation was bad.
On the other hand, even as special forces, they were still human.
In terms of physical toughness, they were still at the level of ordinary people.
It’s like a guy from the Northeast coming to Shanghai.
Shanghai’s winter might not be as cold as the Northeast, but you can’t just wear a shirt because it’s the south.
Yeah, that would be a death wish.
He found an internet café next to the inn.
In this era, internet cafés were still hard to find.
Fortunately, this was the Ancient City, and很多people traveling here didn’t bring computers.
So there was business to be had.
The price, though, was really expensive.
Thirty yuan an hour.
And that was just the most basic seat, sitting together with everyone else.
The private rooms and VIP rooms were even more expensive.
For example, the Supreme Private Room went for five hundred yuan an hour.
He had no idea if anyone actually used those.
Lin Xi didn’t bother to check.
Anyway, he booked a Supreme Private Room.
That kind of money was nothing to him.
He was, after all, a man worth tens of billions.
Once he entered the Supreme Private Room, he immediately felt the "supreme" service.
The chair alone easily cost over five thousand yuan.
Once he sat down, there was even a gentle massage function.
The computer’s specs were basically the top of the line in the country.
To give an example, even the most resource-hungry game would have zero pressure running on this machine.
He could even run two or three such games at once without any issue.
You had to know, those most demanding games could still lag on other people’s desktops with configurations worth over ten thousand.
Even if it didn’t lag at first, a few runs and the computer would be fried.
Right then, a pretty girl in exotic clothing came in with peeled fruit and set it down within his reach.
She also said that if he needed a massage or anything, someone would come immediately.
Of course, that would cost extra.
Lin Xi just shook his head.
Because he was about to log into Mercenary Home.
This really wasn’t something ordinary people should see.
Otherwise, he really would have been tempted to watch some "videos" while having a beauty give him a massage.
Yeah, and she was exotic too.
By his standards, she was at least an eight.
So, a passing grade.
Which was actually pretty rare.
No wonder it was so expensive; judging from this, it was worth it.
On Mercenary Home, he canceled the bounty.
After all, this time only he knew that the Dwarf Demon had died.
If he didn’t cancel it, people would keep going after him endlessly.
That would just waste other people’s time, and he couldn’t quite stand that.
He used to take jobs like this too, after all.
Though it had been the old man taking the jobs, not him personally.
So he understood how tough it was for that group of people.
At the same time, he also immediately saw news about the auction online.
It was just that there wasn’t much information about him.
It looked like someone was deliberately blocking the news.
Otherwise, if those people did any targeted digging at all, they could have found his name.
There weren’t even any photos.
It wasn’t that no one posted them; it was that no one dared to take pictures at the time.
Besides, he’d noticed it too.
The moment anyone tried to take a photo, they’d better delete it immediately, or he wouldn’t be polite.
He skimmed through the news and forums.
There wasn’t anything major on there.
At least, not for him.
For other people, there were big events.
Like William from the United Kingdom breaking through to the Innate Realm.
He was hailed as the youngest genius.
Yeah, William was the British guy by Avril Jolie’s side.
As for how he broke through?
Others didn’t know, but Lin Xi certainly did.
It was only thanks to the Bone Refining Pill and Qi Storage Pill that he broke through so fast.
Otherwise, with his strength and level, there was no way he could do it without at least over a decade.
Or rather, ten-plus years was the bare minimum.
However, a low-traffic post at the very bottom of page two caught Lin Xi’s eye.
"Spiritual Qi revival?" He froze for a moment.
