Chapter 7: 7

Chapter 7: Beggars Chicken

All the while, the divine artefact is hidden within her body.

But it will only be revealed when the right conditions are met.

And that condition depends on the grandpa and orphans that live in the same house as her.

In the original story, a paedophilia likes Xiao Qi looks and wanted to kidnap her, but was stopped by the rest of the orphans. In a fit of rage, he killed all the beggars. At that time, Shiyu happened to be out and hence was spared. When she returned, she was horrified to find the blood-stained corpses on the ground. She tried to find Xiao Qi and found her - her corpse as it was being fed to the dogs.

That tyrant and paedophilia was a Xiuzhen practiser [1] in the Qing Shan city, and someone that a beggar dare not offend. Finally, the male lead helped Shiyu to take revenge.

Shiyu cooked the dishes that the beggars love to eat the most and offered these dishes as prayers in front of their graves. From this moment onwards, the divine artefact was awakened, and Shiyu finally embarked on the road of a food Xiuzhen practiser and become a cooking saint.

Shiyu was flustered. The script was written in this way. Does this mean that the other beggars must die?

Looking at everyone who was happily playing around, she felt that she should do something.

The people in the novel are real, and there is a chance that this may happen. Right now, all she can do is to try her best to avoid this situation.

The problem is, she had no idea when this will happen.....

Her mind was confused and troubled by these events, and Shiyu decided to eat something to calm down.

There is some space for growing vegetables in the courtyard. This area is not very big, but it should be enough to grow some vegetables. Shiyu asked the children to help to clear the area of weeds. Later they will go to the hills and see if they can dig out some vegetables and grow them in the garden instead.

Once they heard that the courtyard garden could be used to grow some food, all the children were very excited and motivated. Lao Er and Xiao Wu cut some bamboos and give it Grandpa to build a small fence. Shiyu used the hoe and turned over the field. Even though she had never been a farmer before, the task does not seem too difficult. After an hour, the gardening area looks a lot better but is still far from being ready to plant vegetables.

At this time, Grandpa wanted to help, but Shiyu declined his offer to help. Grandpa is quite old and prolonged exposure to the winds and cold for many years have weakened him a lot. If he collapses from fatigue, he may pass away.

After thinking for a while, Shiyu decided to ask her neighbours for help. This may be a fantasy world filled with immortals and Xiuzhen practisers, but most of the commoners know how to farm.

The father of the crying little girl that knocked on the door in the afternoon and got the grilled pork skewers immediately volunteered to help as soon as he heard they need help. He grabbed his tools and helped to tidy the garden until the evening. By evening, the soil and mud are very fine and ready for planting.

"Thank you." Shiyu was very appreciative and give him a big bag of steamed buns.

The issue of the garden was hence settled.

The bonfire that was used to grill the pork intestine in the afternoon was still there. Shiyu asked Lao Er to gather more firewood, and then dug some mud and clay from the soil. She will kill the chicken.

That's right, she intends to cook Beggar's Chicken.

Beggar's Chicken is a dish that is quite difficult to make. If she wants it to taste good, she must put in a quite a lot of effort. After killing the chicken and draining the blood, she plucked out all the feathers, and degut the chicken. Finally, she added some mushroom and some seasoning into the stomach of the chicken. To ensure that the chicken tastes good, she rubbed some salt over the surface of the chicken.

After doing this, she used the leaves to wrap the chicken and tied up the leaves. Then she covered the chicken with mud and clay and use a few leaves to wipe this shell as well.

At this time, Grandpa had dug a hole, and Shiyu placed the package into the hole. Then she started a bonfire on top of the hole.

When she was done, the sun was already setting. The sky turned a shade of amber red, and the colour of the setting sun made everyone appeared redder. Shiyu suddenly felt that this life is not too bad after all - she was quite carefree.

Shiyu eyes darted around and discovered that Xiao Qi was watching the fire. The flickering flames seemed to dance in her eyes, and her eyes are very big and attractive. Her face is also pretty and white, and if she is a bit plumper, she would look like a doll. Most people will feel that she will very adorable, and this is what attracts the paedophilia.

Shiyu was worried. She wanted to hide Xiao Qi or take her away to avoid this gruesome fate. But if she tries to do that, it may set off the butterfly effect.

Right now, she could only take one step at a time.

Filled with worried, she decided to do something to take her mind off these nasty thoughts. She took out the uneaten portion of the pig intestines and grilled them. Everyone chipped in to help, and when they finished grilling all the pig intestines, they discovered that they have grilled too much.

"It is all right. Tomorrow we will put it in the cart and try to sell them." These products are free of charge. If they could sell it, they will make a profit. If not, they can eat it themselves. Either way, they gain.

After the intestines were grilled, they put out the fire and used the shovel to disperse the soot. Finally, they dug up the hardened mud. The mud was very solid and very hot. But when the children thought of the chicken inside it, they immediately salivated, and tried hard to crack the mud open.

Shiyu did not disappoint them. She grabbed a piece of rock and smash it again the harden clay. The clay immediately broke, and a fragrant smell whiffed out. After getting rid of the mud, and opening the leaves, a golden yellow colour chicken appeared in front of everyone. It was infused with the mouth-watering aroma of the mushroom and made all salivated in anticipation.

This thing is very hot. Shiyu asked Xiao Wu to get the plate and chopsticks, and place the chicken on the plate. This will make it easier for all of them to share the chicken.

Suddenly, she heard a sound from outside the door to her house, "Lin Fan, did you still think that you are still a genius? Right now you are just a dog. Wait and see! In a few months times, after the clan competition, you will be forced to leave the Lin family clan."

"He is useless. Just because he had a good father, he took up the most of the resources in the clan. If I were you, I would have left the clan a long time ago. I am not so thick-skinned as to stay within the clan."

"Why are we talking to this useless bum? In the future, he would not be fit to polish our shoes for us."

Lin Fan.

Shiyu placed the chicken in grandpa's hand, and she crept towards the door. She saw that on the street just outside her door, there were several youths beating up a teenager.

After a while, they have vented all their frustration. They appeared to smell the chicken and exclaimed, "What is this? It smells so good. Just this scent is enough to make me hungry. Let's go. We have to be careful not to beat him to death. Or his father will take it out on us."

The group of youths then left the area.

Only the skinny teenager was left in the alley. He gritted his teeth as he tried to get up. At this moment, Shiyu noticed his facial features.

Just like what the novel had indicated, he was handsome, with a hint of stubbornness.
