Chapter 259 The Master of the Kitchen Knife, One Battle Against the Shocking Dragon Fang
At the entrance to Shennong Valley, all was deathly silent.
All eyes were focused on the "herb gatherer" wielding a kitchen knife and the Grandmaster of Internal Energy lying on the ground, spitting blood, his life hanging in the balance.
The members of the Dragon Fang Special Forces swallowed hard, feeling their throats so dry they were practically on fire.
Their brains have completely shut down.
What just happened?
Their enemy, a master of internal energy who could overturn armored vehicles with his bare hands and whom they couldn't harm even with all their might, was just... knocked down with a single slash?
Was it a kitchen knife?
They even said... the cooking time was too long, and the meat was overcooked?
What the hell is going on?
The group of "Hellhound" mercenaries brought by Hans, the master of internal energy, were terrified out of their wits.
They were desperate criminals who lived on the edge, unafraid of death, but they were afraid of this kind of bizarre and incomprehensible thing.
Their leader, the god of war in their hearts, was defeated in a way that was almost humiliating.
That person wasn't even using a weapon, but a kitchen utensil!
"Sorcery...sorcery! This is Eastern sorcery!" A timid mercenary screamed in terror and turned to run away.
"stop."
He Yuzhu's calm voice rang out.
The mercenary's body froze instantly, as if he had been frozen in place and could no longer move.
He Yuzhu didn't look at him. His gaze swept over the remaining mercenaries, and then he slowly raised the kitchen knife in his hand.
"I don't like wasting food," he said slowly. "Now that we've started cooking, we should finish the dish."
"These 'ingredients' of yours, though of poor quality, can still barely make a dish."
His words made the mercenaries feel as if they had been stripped naked and thrown onto a chopping board.
A fear originating from the depths of their souls seized them.
"Run! Run!"
Someone shouted, and the remaining dozen or so mercenaries scattered like birds and beasts, fleeing frantically into the woods in all directions.
He Yuzhu watched their retreating figures and shook his head.
"I told you, don't waste it."
He flicked his wrist.
The ordinary kitchen knife in his hand suddenly emitted a clear, melodious hum.
Immediately afterwards, more than a dozen blade energies, almost invisible to the naked eye, separated from the blade and, as if they had eyes, instantly caught up with the fleeing mercenaries.
The blade energy did not target their vital points.
Instead, it precisely severed the tendons in each of their feet and hands!
"ah--!"
"My legs!"
"My hand!"
A series of screams echoed through the forest.
The dozen or so mercenaries all collapsed to the ground, their tendons severed, completely unable to move, and could only writhe painfully on the ground like maggots.
He Yuzhu nodded in satisfaction.
"Yes, if you handle it this way, the ingredients won't move around."
After he finished doing all this, he turned around and looked at the Dragon Fang team members who had been completely petrified.
His gaze finally settled on Dr. Li, who was pale with fright and clutching a special container tightly.
"Um... a seven-colored violet, right?" He Yuzhu pointed to the thing in her hand. "Can I take a look?"
Captain Longya snapped to attention and instantly realized what was happening.
He quickly stepped forward, standing between Dr. Li and He Yuzhu. Although his legs were still trembling, he mustered his courage and said warily, "Senior... this... this seven-colored violet is an important national scientific research item, no..."
Before he could finish speaking, He Yuzhu waved his hand, interrupting him.
"I know, it belongs to the country." He Yuzhu smiled, a smile that, to the Dragon Fang team members, was more terrifying than a devil. "I'm not robbing you."
"I just...want to borrow a leaf."
"Borrow a leaf?" Captain Dragon Fang was taken aback.
"Yes." He-Yu-Zhu nodded, saying matter-of-factly, "I've been working so hard just now, I'm hungry. It's almost lunchtime, we should get something to eat, right?"
"I see you guys didn't bring much food. I'm a picky eater, I like a mix of meat and vegetables."
"Here we are, meat dishes." He pointed to the mercenaries on the ground who were still wailing.
"As for vegetarian dishes... I think this little flower is quite nice. It's brightly colored and has a lively feel to it. I can pick a leaf and use it as a side dish to enhance the flavor. That would be perfect."
The Dragon Fang team members' eyes twitched as they listened.
Brother!
This is a rare and precious herb, the seven-colored violet, which can greatly enhance spiritual power!
You...you're actually going to use it as a side dish? To enhance the flavor?
Also, the meat dishes you mentioned... you don't mean those people on the ground, do you?!
Looking at He Yuzhu's harmless smile, they felt their worldview being ruthlessly crushed time and time again.
"Wh...what? Is it not okay?" He Yuzhu raised an eyebrow at their constipated expressions.
"Sure! Sure! Of course!"
Captain Longya dared not utter a single word of "no".
Let alone a single leaf, even if this gentleman wanted to take the whole plant, he wouldn't dare utter a single word of complaint!
He quickly and carefully took the container from Dr. Li's hand, and with trembling hands, opened the lid.
A refreshing and unique fragrance instantly filled the air.
"Senior, please...please go ahead."
Without any hesitation, He Yuzhu stretched out two fingers and gently plucked the smallest, pale purple leaf from the pansy.
He held the leaf to his nose, smelled it, and nodded in satisfaction.
"Hmm, not bad, the aroma is refreshing and can neutralize the bloody and foul smell on those scumbags."
After saying that, he put the leaf in his pocket, and then, as if nothing had happened, picked up his kitchen knife and walked towards Hans, the Grandmaster of Internal Energy who was still pretending to be dead on the ground.
The Dragon Fang team members didn't dare to breathe and could only watch helplessly.
He Yuzhu walked up to Hans, squatted down, and patted his face with the flat of his knife.
"Stop pretending, I know you're awake."
Hans's body trembled violently, and then he slowly opened his eyes.
His eyes were filled with fear and pleading.
"Who...who are you? What do you want?" he asked in a hoarse voice.
"Me?" He Yu-zhu thought for a moment and said, "My name is He Yu-zhu, and I'm a cook."
cook……
Hans wanted to cry.
He would rather be defeated by a peerless killing god than be knocked down by a cook with a cleaver.
If word gets out, how will he ever be able to work in the mercenary world again?
"As for what I want to do..." He Yuzhu grinned, revealing a set of white teeth, "I said, I'm hungry."
He stood up, grabbed Hans's ankle with one hand like a dead dog, and dragged him deeper into the woods.
"Come on, everyone, stop standing there!" He turned around and shouted to the mercenaries who were still groaning, "Come and help, start the fire, and put the pot on the stove."
"Today, I'm treating everyone to a big meal."
"As for the name of the dish... let's call it, Teppanyaki Master."
His voice echoed in the silent valley.
After hearing this, most of the mercenaries were so frightened that they fainted.
Meanwhile, several members of the Dragon Fang team felt a churning in their stomachs and almost vomited on the spot.
As they watched the "cook" dragging the Grandmaster of Internal Energy along, humming a tune, towards the depths of the forest, they felt as if they were seeing a cannibalistic monster that had walked out of hell.
"Captain... Captain..." a young team member asked, his voice trembling, "What... what do we do now?"
Captain Longga wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and glanced at the intact seven-colored violet in his hand, which was missing only one leaf.
He gritted his teeth and made a decision.
"Stay away from him!"
"We'll take Dr. Li down the mountain immediately! Right now! Immediately!"
"Everything you see and hear here today, keep it all to yourself! Anyone who dares to divulge a single word will be court-martialed!"
"This person...this cook...he's someone we can't afford to mess with!"
"His matter can only be reported to the highest levels! Let the truly important figures worry about it!"
