Seeing Lilian's confident expression, Xia Ye couldn't help but become interested. She stopped thinking about the serious issues just now. Too many things had happened today since her resurrection, and the continuous high-intensity thinking had given Xia Ye a dull headache.
——Although my "head" does not exist, is this the so-called phantom limb pain?
Next, it should be time to relax. she said to herself.
"Oh? What are you going to do?" she asked curiously.
"Huhuhu, bastard fish."
"???"
When Xia Ye looked confused, Lillian had already taken out a large bag from a cabinet that should be the refrigerator and placed it on the kitchen counter with a "dong".
Xia Ye walked over and looked into the bag, only to see a bag full of...monsters.
"Sister Xia Ye must have known about it originally, but have you forgotten it now? The so-called 'miscellaneous fish' are various small fish that live in the surrounding etheric sea. They are cute in appearance, have delicious meat, and also contain a little magic power. They are used for cooking. Good ingredients!”
Lilian introduced the fish while taking it out of the bag.
"..."
I don't know if the meat is fresh or not, but this look...can't be called cute, right?
If it weren't for her headlessness, Xia Ye would definitely be holding her forehead with one hand right now.
For example, this one's belly is actually transparent, and everything inside can be seen clearly. It's really too revealing.
And this one is obviously a fish, but why it has sharp and sharp jointed limbs? It reminds Xia Ye of a certain horror comic he read before traveling through time.
Finally, there is this. Where is your head? You can survive without a brain. Are you my distant relative?
While Xia Ye kept complaining quietly, Lillian had already put on her apron, pulled out a pointed kitchen knife from the knife rest, picked out a piece of fish, put it on the cutting board, and chopped it into pieces.
"Trash fish, trash fish, trash fish that is delicious and easy to cook..."
While the girl was handling the fish, she actually began to hum, her head moving little by little to the singing, and her beautiful blond twin ponytails swaying gently with her head.
"..." Xia Ye felt that her fist was hardened.
Blonde hair, twin ponytails, a lolita figure, and a cry of "miscellaneous fish, miscellaneous fish"—all the elements are included.
But when she thought that people in this world didn't know these weird things, she felt a little bored. Some fun things are like gods and become meaningless if not many people know about them.
Just when Xia Ye was thinking wildly, Lillian had dismembered all the trash fish into fish pieces of about the same size. She poured the fish pieces into the pot, added water, then placed it on a pot rack shaped like a natural gas stove, and then raised her fingers in the air With a gentle tap, the syllables of Witch Mantra came out from his mouth:
"Hntqs--"
At the bottom of the pot, a blue flame suddenly appeared. It stayed in place steadily and began to heat the pot filled with fish pieces and water.
"Is this?" Xia Ye was a little surprised.
"Level 1 Witch Contract 'Tiny Flame', sister Xia Ye has no impression of it either?"
"No." Xia Ye shook her head frankly.
She had never thought before that the Witch's Contract could be used for cooking. Although strictly speaking, this was considered knowledge related to the Witch's Contract, it was not recorded in her cup, or in other words, it was not recorded in her cup at all. Any information about daily life.
If the witch contract can be used for cooking, then——
"I'm a little curious." Xia Ye pointed to the cabinet where the miscellaneous fish was stored and asked Lilian: "Does that cabinet also rely on the witch contract to preserve food?"
"Yes." Lilian said matter-of-factly while stirring the fish soup with a spoon: "The level 1 witch's contract 'long-lasting cold', plus the sealing of the cabinet is very good, you can keep food forever."
"Oh..." Xia Ye felt like an ancient person who had just traveled to modern times and had never seen household appliances.
After stirring for a while, Lillian took out various bottles and jars from a cabinet and started pouring them into the pot one by one.
There is purple powder;
Green translucent liquid;
There are also flakes that look like insect wings…
Finally, Lillian took out another handful of vegetables from the "freezer" and threw them into the pot. When the vegetable was thrown into the soup, it made a sharp cry of "ah". The vegetable leaves twisted a few times unwillingly, and then there was no more sound.
Xia Ye couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, but in order to maintain her image as a "fearless traveling witch", she could only pretend to ask casually:
"This dish is... uh, is it a dish?"
"This is a 'screaming dish'. It has a unique fragrance. When cooking miscellaneous fish, add some to neutralize the overly strong taste of the fish soup... This is my exclusive recipe." Lillian introduced with some pride. .
Xia Ye glanced into the pot. The fish soup was indeed very thick, green in color, and bubbles were popping on the surface.
Is this... really drinkable?
She was actually a little afraid of the upcoming "drug test" moment.
"Sister Xia Ye must be hungry too, right? The fish soup will be ready soon. Hehe, I'm not boasting, it's really, really delicious!"
"oh……"
Even if it was as delicious as Lilian said, Xia Ye doubted whether she could taste it without her head. However, maybe it would be better if she couldn't taste it?
"it is done!"
Lillian announced that she was done. She put on thick insulated gloves, grabbed the handle of the pot, and brought a whole pot of green fish soup to the table.
"Next, just bake a little more bread and you're ready for dinner." As Lillian spoke, she had already thrown a large piece of bread into the oven.
The bread looks pretty normal...
Then, Lillian took two bowls and spoons and placed them on the table.
"Sister Xia Ye, do you want to try the fish soup I made first?"
The girl blinked her big blue eyes and looked at Xia Ye expectantly.
"Uh... ok..."
Seeing this expression on the girl's cute face, Xia Ye was too embarrassed to refuse, so she reluctantly nodded her neck.
Speaking of which, she hadn't eaten anything since her resurrection. Now smelling the strange but not unpleasant smell of the fish soup, she felt really hungry.
Xia Ye sat down at the dining table, picked up a silver spoon, scooped a spoonful of thick green soup from the pot, and said silently:
"A witch can eat without a head, a witch can eat without a head..."
Then, she pointed the hot spoon at the opening of the esophagus on her neck and poured it down.
A stream of white smoke rose from his neck, catching the fish soup flowing from the spoon. White smoke enveloped the green soup, and then, if the mouth and throat moved rhythmically, the soup was sent bit by bit along the esophagus to Xia Ye's stomach.
She actually tasted it.
And surprisingly delicious!
The first thing that filled the "mouth" was a rich milky aroma; then, the right spiciness broke through the viscous texture of the soup and danced on Xia Ye's taste buds, bringing another dimension to her taste. Feel.
When the two fell in love with each other and reached their peak, a scent of fragrance quietly filled the air.
That's the smell of "Screaming Leaf". No wonder Lillian said it was her exclusive formula - the seemingly inconspicuous light fragrance is actually extremely long-lasting, and no matter the strong milky fragrance or the stimulating spicy taste, it can't be washed away. When the first two flavors slowly weaken, the fragrance becomes more and more obvious.
Eventually, all the intensity in the mouth subsided, leaving only a faint sweetness.
"Hmm~~~delicious!"
Xia Ye expressed heartfelt appreciation.
If you want to make an analogy, the fish soup made by Lillian is similar to the green curry in the world before traveling. It also has a mellow and fragrant milky taste, a spicy taste that stimulates the taste buds, and a unique fragrance.
But compared to green curry, each taste is more wonderful, and the combination with each other is more layered.
"Really? That's great!"
Lilian, who had been staring at Xia Ye anxiously, suddenly burst into a smile.
