“Are you making braised pork?” Shen Yan asked next.
Su Qianqian didn’t reply. She only replied to Shen Yan after she added a portion of brown sugar into the stir-fried dish.
“Okay.” Su Qianqian nodded.
Shen Yan asked, “What otherworldly beast’s meat is this?”
“Water Qilin meat,” Su Qianqian said bluntly.
Shen Yan exclaimed, “Water Qilin!”
Su Qianqian said, “Yes, it’s the Water Qilin’s meat. I’ll give it to you when it’s ready.”
“Then I’ll have a good taste.”
Shen Yan was looking forward to the braised pork made from Qilin meat.
Shen Yan also knew that the Qilin was an auspicious beast, and knew the rumors regarding eating auspicious beasts.
It wasn’t just the auspicious beasts. The ferocious beasts were the same.
Eating vicious beasts and auspicious beasts would bring disaster.
However, one was a calamity from the heavens, while the other was a scourge of their own.
Just like the Chiru. If someone ate it, the entire body would fester, and they would die.
However, Shen Yan was someone who was not even afraid of death. Why would she care about trouble?
Moreover, in her opinion, it was a rather comfortable way to die after eating the braised pork made of a Qilin.
After all, Shen Yan only wanted to die peacefully.
It was done.
Su Qianqian brought out the braised pork that she had just made.
It was carried onto the grass along with the frying pan.
She was also at the side.
After all, this was a grassland. They could sit down and eat freely.
Su Qianqian was not hungry, but since it was braised pork that she had personally made, she would definitely try it herself.
“You can eat now,” Su Qianqian said.
However, Shen Yan was not in a hurry. Instead, she waited for Su Qianqian to pick up the first piece of braised pork and eat it before picking up a piece herself.
It wasn’t because Shen Yan was afraid that something bad would happen to her if she ate the braised pork made from the Water Qilin’s meat.
She was a freeloader, so she couldn’t scramble to eat, right?
She had to let Su Qianqian try a piece first before she started eating.
“It tastes like bird meat?” Su Qianqian chewed a few times and realized that this Water Qilin had the taste of bird meat. Furthermore, it was not crispy, but soft in the mouth. It was as if it had been stewed for hours, but it was very chewy.
“Bird meat? I can taste an old hen.” Shen Yan had thought that the Water Qilin meat would taste like beef or mutton. After all, it was similar to them. They were both vertebrates. However, she could taste the taste of poultry.
“It’s really delicious.” Shen Yan also tasted the fragrance of the braised pork.
It had to be said that the Water Qilin was a rare ingredient.
Su Qianqian ate a total of three pieces of braised pork and stopped eating.
The remaining pot of braised pork was left for Shen Yan to eat alone.
And Shen Yan’s appetite was huge. She was clearly less than 1.6 meters tall and weighed at most 45 kg, but she could actually eat 1-2 kg of braised pork in one go-
Some people believed that Shen Yan was sent to the Otherworld Instance Dungeon to train because she was hungry.
“I forgot to tell you. They said that the Water Qilin is an auspicious beast. If you eat it, it will be very serious, and a calamity will descend from the sky,” Su Qianqian said.
Shen Yan nodded, and said, “I’ve also heard of such rumors. Perhaps it’s true, but I’m not afraid. It would be good if I died like this.”
“Why do you want to die?” Su Qianqian asked.
Although Su Qianqian did not know the reason, she could tell that Shen Yan really wanted to die.
Shen Yan first glanced at Su Qianqian before saying, “Because death isn’t scary. To me, it’s a kind of yearning.”
Listen?
There were actually people who said that death was a form of yearning.
However, the netizens in the Heavenly Dao live-stream knew that Shen Yan had no family, friends, support, or hope in this world alone. It could be said that she had nothing, and there was no meaning in living.
What was the point of such a person living an ignoble life? She was just waiting for death.
Therefore, there were still many netizens who could understand Shen Yan’s desire to die.
It was not that these netizens had the same background as Shen Yan, but they could empathize with her. It was really meaningless to live like this.
“If you’re dead, you won’t be able to eat delicious food and have fun. You won’t be able to see them anymore,” Su Qianqian said.
Shen Yan said, “I was just saying. Don’t take it to heart.”
Of course, Shen Yan wasn’t joking. She just didn’t want to bring her negative emotions to a five-year-old girl.
Because this way, she wouldn’t be able to die in peace.
She had thought of many ways to peacefully leave the world, but she did not expect to be chosen by the Heavenly Dao System.
Su Qianqian continued, “Big Sister, what’s your name?”
“My name is Shen Yan. 1 live in Fengyang Harbor. I’m 22 years old this year. 1 used to work in a garment factory, but 1 quit last month.” Shen Yan not only told him her name, but also introduced herself.
“My name is Su Qianqian. My family lives in Jinxiu Manor, and I’m still in my senior class,” Su Qianqian said.
Shen Yan knew some details about Su Qianqian.
She knew that Su Qianqian was very powerful, rich, and had a very great father.
However, Shen Yan wasn’t jealous or envious, because she didn’t have any attachments to the world.
Shen Yan asked, “Let me ask you a question that might make you sad.”
Su Qianqian asked, “What question?”
Shen Yan asked, “Have you never seen your mother before?”
Su Qianqian replied, “I’ve never seen her before. It’s enough that 1 have a father.”
Shen Yan said, “A child who has a mother is like a treasure.”
In the Heavenly Dao live-stream.
The netizens sighed.
However, when they thought about how Shen Yan was not even afraid of death, why would she be afraid of angering Su Yang? Moreover, she would not be able to leave the Otherworldly Beasts of Mountains and Seas dungeon alive.
What did such a person have to worry about?
“Baby?? Daddy still called me baby when I was three years old,” Su Qianqian said.
Shen Yan said, “Then your father is really too great.”
In Shen Yan’s opinion, even though Su Yang was very powerful, he did not make Su Qianqian lose the care of her family at all. Moreover, Su Yang was both a father and a mother.
This was not as simple as hiring a few nannies to take care of her.
One had to know that Su Qianqian had always remembered that no matter how hard, tired, and busy her father was, he would still return home on time to wash clothes, cook, and play with her.
“Of course.” Su Qianqian’s tone was filled with pride at the mention of her father.
Shen Yan said, “I didn’t have parents when I was born. It was my grandmother who raised me. In some aspects, I’m quite similar to you, but 1 don’t have a background like yours. I’m not as talented as you. You’re already so amazing at five years old.”
Of course, Shen Yan also knew that there was a difference between people.
She was not a person who blamed the heavens or the unfairness of the Heavenly Dao. On the contrary, she felt that she had lived very well until now, but there was no longer any meaning to live.
