“Thank you, I’ll savor it.” Qin Lang sways the Crispy Chicken Nuggets in his hand, indicating he had also chosen this delicacy.
“Bye, then.” Chou Yun Er waved at Qin Lang and briskly joined the end of a queue of tourists nearby.
Qin Lang glanced at the amusement facility the queue was waiting for. emmm…
A merry-go-round?
He chuckled, shaking his head, and went to meet up with Zhao Wenchang with the two Food Spirits.
“Crunch.”
Zhao Wenchang received a Giant Fried Skewer, blew on its surface, then bit off a large chunk, a satisfied expression on his face, “The familiar taste.”
“You’ve tasted it before.” Qin Lang picked up another skewer and took a bite.
The batter fried to a golden-brown crispness was not thick, while inside was juicy white chicken. A single chew exploded with a rich flavor that filled his mouth.
Although machine-pressed into strips, Qin Lang could taste that they didn’t use scraps of chicken, but premium parts like chicken leg meat.
The ingredients were of high quality.
He couldn’t help but nod in approval, satisfied with this delicacy.
“That uncle has been a vendor in the Scenic Area for years. Every time I visit, I see him. His food has been the same all this while.” Zhao Wenchang took a big gulp of Icy Lemon Water. “Although there’s no innovation, it’s quite a classic.”
“The food in a Scenic Area doesn’t need much innovation.” Qin Lang gives the Fried Meat Skewer to the two little ones, watching them leave teeth marks on it, and softly starts speaking, “Because very few people would come everyday, so there’s no chance of getting tired of the food.”
“Making a specific type of food well means visitors will want to taste it again next time they come. That’s when being a classic is important.”
“Indeed.” Zhao Wenchang nodded in agreement.
“Let me taste the Crispy Chicken Nuggets.” Filled with curiosity, Qin Lang opened a paper box filled with roughly a dozen chicken nuggets with a brownish-yellow surface.
The surface of the nuggets was evenly sprinkled with red seasoning powder.
These were spicy flavor.
Picking up a piece with a bamboo stick and carefully cooling it, he couldn’t wait to put the delicious smelling nugget into his mouth.
“Crunch.”
The sound of teeth hitting the crispy surface of the nugget was particularly clear.
A wave of warm juice burst from the surface cracks as soon as his teeth closed around the nugget, flowing in his mouth, nearly overflowing with a delicious flavor.
Contrasting with its crisp surface, the meat inside the Crispy Chicken Nuggets was unimaginably tender.
The spicy seasoning powder added just the right kick to its deliciousness.
To fry the nuggets to this standard, not only must the ingredients be good, but the cooking time had to be mastered through many attempts.
Remembering what Zhao Wenchang had earlier said about the vendor having been here for many years, Qin Lang felt a sense of unexpected yet reasonable acknowledgment.
“What do you think?” Zhao Wenchang took a bite of the Giant Fried Skewer with a grin, “The Crispy Chicken Nuggets are good, right?”
“Indeed delicious.” Qin Lang took a sip of Bubbly Orange Juice, nodding in contentment, then asked with curiosity, “Then why didn’t you get it?”
“Because there is more than one stall in the Scenic Area.” Zhao Wenchang winked, “1 need to save some room in my stomach.”
Looking at the food in his hands, Qin Lang suddenly felt he had acted rashly.
But turning to see the two little ones who had already eaten half of the Giant Fried Skewer, he felt that he and the two Food Spirits were quite formidable.
As they chatted and savored the food, the queue slowly moved forward.
By the time they had only empty packaging left, it was finally their turn.
With the help of a staff member, Qin Lang and Zhao Wenchang sat side-by-side, fastened their seatbelts, and took the necessary safety precautions.
Dan Bao, Spicy, and Zhao Wenchang’s birdie were put into special seats close to them, making it easy for both sides to see each other.
The other passengers also took their seats, and soon the roller coaster was full again.
“Although I’ve visited Qingyang Valley Scenic Area many times since childhood, this is only my second time on a roller coaster.” Zhao Wenchang properly sat down, gripping the handrails with both hands, beginning to chatter to relieve his nervousness.
“It was only four months ago during my last visit that 1 mustered enough courage to ride for the first… Ahh!!!”
With the sudden push and abrupt acceleration of the roller coaster, Zhao Wenchang’s words abruptly stopped.
“Don’t worry, it’s no big deal.” Qin Lang was much more composed compared to Zhao Wenchang.
After all, he had ridden roller coasters in his previous life many times.
However, that composure vanished as the roller coaster gradually rose to a height near the top of the mountain.
From this height, the green mist of the valley was beneath the roller coaster.
Looking up, one could once again see the blue sky and white clouds. Looking down, all you could see was the obstructing green mist.
It was like traversing an unknown mysterious land, a wave of anxiety suddenly hitting.
Next moment, the roller coaster that had risen to its highest point suddenly plummeted along the track.
The strong sensation of weightlessness and the oncoming green mist made every passenger on the roller coaster let out a sudden gasp in fright.
“Alih!!!”
It felt as if they were falling into a sea made of green mist. Unable to remain calm, Qin Lang couldn’t help but shriek, faintly hearing the equally uncontrollable cries of Dan Bao and Spicy not far away.
A moment later, the roller coaster, hugging the mountainside, began its first turn.
As the entire roller coaster tilted at an extreme angle, a thrilling sensation enveloped every passenger’s heart.
Qin Lang held onto the handrail with all his might, lifting his head slightly, and saw a shadow in the green mist, sending a shiver down his spine.
That was the shadow of the mountain cliff the roller coaster was circling around!
The roller coaster was clinging close to the mountainside at this moment, straight-line distance less than five meters, looking as if it might crash into it at any moment.
Qin Lang had ridden many roller coasters, but this was the first time it was so thrilling.
The other passengers also noticed the shadow of the mountainside almost overhead due to the roller coaster’s tilt, their shrieks growing louder.
Quite a while later, Qin Lang felt the shadow gradually disappear into the mist, and the tilt of the roller coaster began to gradually lessen.
Had the segment of the track clinging to the mountainside finally ended?
He let out a huge sigh of relief, looking at Dan Bao and Spicy who were similarly frightened.
“I…1…” Zhao Wenchang, who was next to them, despite this being his second time, was scared to the point of being unable to form a sentence.
“Don’t worry.” Qin Lang calms himself, “The roller coaster is slowing down now, it should be going uphill and we have already moved away from that mountain.”
Zhao Wenchang forced out a smile more painful than crying, “That’s the most terrifying part.”
Huh?
Qin Lang blinked, suddenly realizing that the roller coaster was returning to its original path after completing a circular track.
As it accelerated downhill, the shadow up ahead became clearer and clearer.
“Ahhh! We’re going to crash!!!”
