Chapter 73 Oh no! He's really learned something valuable!
Bai Hui ate with a blank expression.
The food entered his stomach and was quickly digested and absorbed, turning into pure nutrition and energy, which was then directed to all parts of his body where needed.
This is one of the abilities he gained after forcibly binding himself to the chef: super digestive ability!
Unlike Uncle Zhong's binding, this only resulted in a clock-shaped mark appearing on Bai Hui's chest. The cook didn't know if it was because of differences in their abilities before death or due to her own characteristics.
After the binding, it caused a mutation to occur directly within Bai Hui's body!
The first thing to be distorted was Bai Hui's speech!
Secondly, there's the stomach—Bai Hui was somewhat relieved about the former, because theoretically, given his current level, he couldn't directly bind two dream artifacts.
However, his speech was already somewhat distorted due to his ignorant and presumptuous understanding of the long-tongued parrot's strange ideas.
Although not entirely aligned with the rules of the cook, the slight enhancement brought about by the anomaly gave Bai Hui a bit more leeway in binding himself to the cook.
Not much, just barely enough.
This time, multiple organs in Bai Hui's body underwent benign abnormalities of varying degrees, which improved Bai Hui's biting strength, sense of taste and smell, and digestive ability.
The distorted effects brought about by the cook haven't completely ended; the remaining portion will simply become more apparent as Bai Hui grows.
His sanity level dropped to single digits because of this, making it extremely dangerous in short.
The gains were naturally substantial. In addition to the enhancements brought about by the benign malformations of some organs, as mentioned above, Bai Hui's mental strength value jumped directly to a level of 3.2!
As for the side effects—
Food costs have increased further, the strength of various organs in the body has become slightly unbalanced, and the mental strength required to bind Sister Jing has increased from the original "8" to 10.
Apart from that, everything else was fine, and Bai Hui felt good overall.
In addition, I don't know if it's a feature added by binding with the chef, or if it's Bai Hui's own problem—now when he looks at a dish, he can directly see the text description of the recipe!
It's not just the dishes; everything in sight, after a brief observation, will elicit comments about its "edibility," along with the potential consequences of consuming it.
Of course, there are also factors like freshness and theoretical pricing.
This information includes, but is not limited to, people, floor tiles, sofas, tables, and chairs.
It's the kind of insight that includes specific cooking methods.
This made Bai Hui wonder if things continued like this, he might grow to the point where he could eat anything!
By then, I'll probably only need to eat in the city's green belts to meet my daily needs—how much food money I'll save!
Yes, Bai Hui, whose rationality was too low, not only felt no fear, but also began to calculate the benefits this ability could bring him.
I wonder if other people's hearts are edible —
Bai Hui looked at the nanny thoughtfully.
He didn't know the guy's exact level, only that he was strong and that the passive defensive effect of the Heart Fiend was far beyond the upper limit of what he could currently observe.
Even now, Bai Hui still cannot glean much personal information about this nanny through the [Simple Lines] viewpoint.
You can't even see her name, all you know is that her surname is Fu.
However, because Bai Hui's rationality was too low at the moment, coupled with what Wu Peng said during the previous exam—Bai Hui could also tell that this guy had at least mastered the "Golden Bell Cover" and the "Lesser Formless Skill"!
If only I could secretly learn a little bit of it —
Bai Hui was pondering whether he should try to spar with the nanny to see if he could glean some secrets of martial arts, or perhaps, after being blessed by the cook, try to absorb the inner energy of others to strengthen himself.
He felt that challenging him to a duel shouldn't be too difficult, since regardless of who caused the trouble, Tian Qiyuan did indeed have an accident at his own home.
If you provoke them a little, a fight should break out.
But before Bai Hui could speak, he felt his stomach churning, causing his brain to receive subtle, inexplicable information—
It seemed to be the cook speaking: "Old Zhong, could you please keep an eye on Xiao Jing? Although we had already discussed the order, Xiao Hui was bound to me prematurely due to an accident, which has indeed put a significant burden on Xiao Hui's body and mind."
It seems the timing for binding the small mirror has been delayed again —
It already harbored resentment towards this —”
The alarm clock pattern on his chest twitched slightly, and his skin and muscle fibers contracted and twisted into a message that only Bai Hui could receive and understand. It was Uncle Zhong saying, "It's alright, Xiao Jing is a reasonable person."
Besides, it likes Xiaohui the most, so it probably won't cause trouble over something like this.
Apologize to them afterwards, and that should be enough.
Furthermore, Xiao Hui has already obtained the cultivation method for the "Frostbone Ice Heart Technique." Once he masters the basics, his rationality and resilience will increase, and even without binding himself to the Little Mirror, he will likely be able to cultivate to some extent by borrowing the Little Mirror's abilities.
Moreover, the issue today stemmed from a lack of proper communication. We can use that to reassure Xiaojing.
Bai Hui found it quite novel to "chat with his own organs" in this way.
He suddenly had a brilliant idea. He secretly exerted his strength, and his tongue twisted and wriggled as it entered his esophagus, emitting a faint and indistinct sound: "Uncle Zhong, Auntie Chef, so this is how we can communicate after we're bound together?"
Uncle Chung: "?"
The cook: "?"
"Oh no! Xiaohui is hallucinating! His sanity is definitely extremely low right now!"
"Let's stop talking!"
Bai Hui didn't feel anything was wrong, but Uncle Zhong and the others' conversation did remind him.
Bai Hui then took a paper document from his bag and handed it to Feng Jue, saying, "Feng Jue, this is the cultivation method for the 'Frostbone Ice Heart Technique.' Your Heart Fiend attribute is predominantly cold, so cultivating it shouldn't be difficult."
However, don't start cultivating right away. Let me learn the basics first. For now, you can take a look and get a feel for it.
Feng Jue was somewhat surprised upon seeing this: "Could it be that—you traded a spot for private martial arts instruction?"
Blood was dripping from his mouth, and he was definitely in pain, but since almost everyone was like that now, Feng Jue didn't pay much attention.
Such minor injuries are not difficult to heal, and with proper care, they may even leave no scars in the future.
The physical damage was secondary; the main issue was the experience of being affected by that "supreme appetite."
The scars will not remain on the body, but will accumulate in the heart.
This will also be beneficial for future martial arts training.
Sigrún has taught at the Iceland University of the Arts as a part-time lecturer since and was Dean of the Department of Fine Art from -. In – she held a research position at Reykjavík Art Museum focusing on the role of women in Icelandic art. She studied fine art at the Icelandic College of Arts and Crafts and at Pratt Institute, New York, and holds BA and MA degrees in art history and philosophy from the University of Iceland. Sigrún lives and works in Iceland.
However, this benefit is not permanent.
As one grows older and one's youthful vigor fades, these scars left in the heart from the past will become stumbling blocks in one's spiritual practice.
Of course, that's all in the future; it's uncertain how long it will take.
Moreover, after spending time together, Feng Jue had long known that Bai Hui wasn't entirely reliable, and she had gotten used to it.
"Strictly speaking, it was exchanged after it was sold to Tian Qiyuan."
Bai Hui said, "It's always better for us to verify each other's cultivation than for one person to fumble around alone—what do you think, Tian Qiyuan?"
"I have no objection."
At this moment, everyone's tongue is injured, so their speech should be affected.
And that is indeed the case, but Bai Hui's simple lines make it very clear.
He Qing closed his eyes and savored the supreme appetite he had just experienced, trying to rediscover that feeling—that even the plate tasted incredibly delicious—intending to hone his spirit through this experience.
This guy—he's not exactly a peaceful fellow either!
Li Youye was lost in thought, and it seemed that "Li Youmo" had briefly appeared to help defend against the attack. Therefore, although he appeared to be the one with the lowest cultivation level present, he also suffered the lightest injuries.
While others were gnawing on porcelain plates, he was licking plates and chopsticks, at most nibbling on the wooden chopsticks. Although there were minor injuries, they were not serious.
Luo Daiyun stammered, feeling that everyone present was crazy.
Bai Hui and Feng Jue discussing martial arts, Li Youye with a dazed look in his eyes, and He Qing lost in thought with his eyes closed—when Luo Daiyun thought that today's experience was just a normal occurrence for these people, she felt that it was perhaps understandable that she was no match for them.
As for what I learned today—
I should think about that kind of thing after I've calmed down!
Meanwhile, after Tian Qiyuan's nanny had treated his injuries, she didn't do anything else. She wanted to teach Bai Hui a small lesson, but considering that Bai Hui had two other dream artifacts at home, and she didn't know if Bai Hui had mastered them.
If not————
She herself should be fine, but Tian Qiyuan might be in a different situation.
Tian Qiyuan said, "To cultivate the Frostbone Ice Heart Technique, you need at least a double-door refrigerator. Bai Hui, do you have one at home? If not, I can ask Sister Fu to buy one as compensation for this unexpected event."
How was it?
"Can I exchange it for cash?"
Bai Hui asked.
After registering with the cook, he realized that his food expenses had increased to five thousand per month, and would continue to rise dynamically.
.
"no."
Bai Hui was surprised that Tian Qiyuan refused him, and his reasons were quite valid: "What happened today was indeed my fault, but I also learned something from it—"
But you are my martial arts sparring partner, and in my opinion, a double-door refrigerator is essential for you right now. If you don't want it, then I can only give you basic medical expenses.
Furthermore, if you are not of much help to me in my subsequent cultivation of the "Frostbone Ice Heart Technique," then I will have to seriously consider whether or not to continue employing you.
And if you're no match for me in next week's college league, I'll definitely stop employing you!
Although Tian Qiyuan still had lingering fear, his reasoning was clear.
"Although my family is wealthy, money doesn't come easily, and I can't afford to waste it!"
Tian Qiyuan's words were resolute and forceful.
But Bai Hui followed his gaze and saw the cook—
Oh no!
This kid has learned the lesson of thrift!
