Chapter 418: The King and The Commoner

Chapter 418 The King and The Commoner

Crack!

Accompanied by a flash of the ax’s shadow, the wood was chopped in half!

“Wow, Lingchen, you’re amazing!” Zhao Liangying could not help but exclaim.

“God Ye, you’re just too unbelievably good! You can even split it like that!” He Jia and the others had been keeping their eye on him from the start and made that comment after seeing Ye Lingchen’s cool demeanor.

Chopping firewood in midair deserved acknowledgement!

The first test of chopping wood in the air was eyesight. One could not simply chop on a whim but had to split it from the top of the wood. Secondly, the technique must be accurate. However, the most important factor was definitely strength!

It was extremely difficult to use force in midair. Ordinary people who could chop the wood might not even be able to split in half if mid-air, but instead, send it pummeling down to the ground. However, Ye Lingchen’s speed and that terrifying power of his could actually split the wood in half!

His actions were so stunning that it could certainly blind everyone’s eyes.

“Let’s continue! One more time!” Ye Lingchen said to the stunned Zhao Liangying and Hu Yue’er.

The two women snapped back to their senses and there was a hint of excitement in their eyes, apparently because they found it to be really fun.

“Take this, Lingchen!” Hu Yue’er shouted and the wood flew along with her call.

“Good one! Now watch my unbridled strength!” Ye Lingchen moved his wrist and hacked straight down, producing a swooshing sound!

Crack!

The wood was chopped in half again.

“Lingchen, look here,” Zhao Liangying shouted afterward.

Ye Lingchen yelled again, “Watch me wield this ax!”

Crack!

The sound of cracking was endless, interspersed with applause and crisp cheers from Zhao Liangying and Hu Yue’er.

The three of them became a team and had a great time playing.

[F*ck! This is a bit too amazing. Only martial arts movies dare to act like this.]

[Awesome, so handsome! What kind of ax is God Ye wielding? Could it be the legendary Mountain-Splitting Thirty-Six Stroke ax that had been lost for so long?]

[God Ye’s Kungfu is probably stronger than we thought. He’s a martial arts master!]

[Damn, I wouldn’t need to worry about wooing a girl if I’m as awesome as God Ye!]

[Upstairs, you’re obviously thinking too much. Didn’t you see? God Ye is so awesome that he could easily win over goddesses like Zhao Liangying and Hu Yue’er.]

…

That scene made Huang Lei and the other two men sink into despair at once. It felt as if they were cast aside by the world.

Beautiful women were welcomed everywhere, and whether one was intentional or not, it was a man’s instinct to hope for beautiful women to surround oneself. Even if one could not marry them, it was still nice to be able to have some fun with them.

However, it was clear that their charm was far behind Ye Lingchen’s.

“God Ye, you’re putting too much emphasis on women instead of your friends. I want to play too.” Wei Daxun ran back stubbornly and threw a piece of wood at Ye Lingchen.

However, Ye Lingchen did not even look at it. He said curtly, “Move aside.”

Wei Daxun was speechless.

Reasonably speaking, Ye Lingchen’s speed of chopping wood was not that fast and was somewhat slower than traditional wood chopping. It consumed more energy, but it was better in that it was fun.

After the three of them played around for a while, Zhao Liangying and Hu Yue’er were obviously tired.

The amount of exercise they had that morning was the most those two women ever had. They climbed up the mountain to catch fish, then threw wood. Their little faces blushed and sweat began flowing down.

They did not feel anything at all when they started playing, but as soon as they stopped, they immediately felt exhausted to no end and their clothes were all soaked in sweat.

“You three, it’s time to stop. Go and take a bath first. God Ye, you’ll still have to cook later,” He Jia shouted.

The three of them nodded and returned to the Mushroom Hut.

The Mushroom Hut had two floors and each floor had a bathroom. Boys took their shower on the first floor, while girls did so on the second floor.

Ye Lingchen took his clothes and walked straight into the bathroom. After about five minutes, he walked out and carried the dirty clothes upstairs.

At that point, Hu Yue’er was also upstairs. She was waiting for Zhao Liangying to finish bathing.

Hu Yue’er was slightly taken aback when she saw Ye Linchen. “Why are you so quick?”

“It’s just a shower. How much effort will it take?” Ye Lingchen shrugged.

Hu Yue’er looked at the clothes in Ye Lingchen’s hands and could not help saying, “Give me those clothes. I’ll wash them for you.”

“This…doesn’t seem like a good idea, does it?” Ye Lingchen hesitated.

“Are you going to put those dirty clothes back in your suitcase?” Hu Yue’er took the clothes from Ye Lingchen’s hands, turned around, and brought them back to her room. “I’ll wash myself anyway, so I’m just doing it for you since I’m at it.”

Ye Lingchen touched his nose. It was then that he remembered his underwear was in that pile of clothes.

Nevertheless, it would only make for an ugly scene if he asked for it, so he shrugged it off and hoped that Hu Yue’er would not mind.

By the time Hu Yue’er and Zhao Liangying went downstairs after taking their showers, Ye Lingchen was already preparing to cook the fish.

Rice was a staple food, and although the program group did not give any money, basic staples were still provided.

Ye Lingchen was only responsible for cooking the fish. The rest was handed over to Huang Lei.

The two women’s eyes lit up when they saw Ye Lingchen and trotted over excitedly. They were ready to learn cooking with Ye Lingchen.

As for the others, they looked at Ye Lingchen curiously as they wanted to confirm whether Ye Lingchen could really cook.

Ye Lingchen put the fish on the plate first, then laid out the herbs in front of him before sorting and chopped the herbs. They were put aside, and he then began to process the fish.

With three fish, Ye Lingchen chose three different methods of cooking. He scored one fish, stuffed some condiments and seasoning into the belly of another, then separated the head from the body of the last fish.

His actions were skillful and deft, stable and orderly, and smooth like a stream. At a glance, it made everyone feel like he was a chef.

While Ye Lingchen was doing all that, he took the time to explain to the two women.

“Fish meat is generally tender, so it shouldn’t be cooked too long. The specific time should be adjusted according to the situation. In fact, the most important thing in cooking is to control the heat. As long as you know what you’re doing, you’ll be able to cook.

“I use this fish for normal cooking. In such a scenario, ginger shouldn’t be added too early. Putting it too early won’t be conducive to removing the fishiness. You should first cook the fish until the protein has solidified before adding in the ginger. This has a much better effect of removing the fishiness.

“As for this one, I’ll be steaming it. In this case, you need to wait until the water in the steamer is boiling before we put the fish on the tray. The skin of the fish will shrink when it encounters high temperatures, trapping the juices, thus making it tastier.”

…

Ye Lingchen’s was doing some impromptu teaching, but the likes of Hu Yue’er and Zhao Liangying were completely unable to understand.

It was like a king leading his commoners. Many things that the king viewed as simple would be completely incomprehensible to commoners. Of course, it was not something that could be taught.

However, Hu Yue’er and Zhao Liangying were still very excited to follow Ye Lingchen. They listened carefully, and it did not matter whether or not they understood, because what mattered was that they regarded Ye Lingchen as an amazing man…

Even though they were true blue commoners, it did not affect them as they watched the king put on a show of pretentiousness.
