2137 VIP channel, unimpeded
Honestly, this is already beyond having an “easy to read” facial expression. It’s as if there are subtitles that come with his face.
“Wuuu! Song Shuhang struggled symbolically.
It was unknown what ingredients were used to make the small dumpling, but it melted in his mouth immediately, sliding down his throat.
Before he could even react, the dumpling was gone.
It had to be noted that Song Shuhang and the others were just spiritual bodies at the moment.
Sister White Dragon looked at him curiously. “Does it taste good?”
Song Shuhang replied honestly, “It’s delicious. It melted in my mouth and left a pleasant aftertaste.”
Before he could savor it properly, the small dumpling slid into his belly. However, he could still feel the lingering aftertaste.
With how good it tasted, Song Shuhang wanted to eat another even if it was poisonous.
If he got a chance to eat another dumpling like that, he would taste it carefully and not waste any bit of it.
“Do you want to eat more?” Sixteen’s voice sounded from behind him.
When Song Shuhang turned his head, he saw that the petite girl was holding several dumpling-shaped objects in her hands. The big ones were as large as a fist, and the small ones were only as big as a lychee.
“So many?” Song Shuhang asked in surprise.
Sixteen replied, “They appear in the air from time to time. I just picked up a few.”
After thinking about it, Song Shuhang said bravely, “Let me eat another one. If I’m not dead in a few minutes, you guys can try them too!”
After all, he had already eaten one, and eating another one would not change anything.
If he was going to die, he would at least help the others.
Song Shuhang took a fist-sized dumpling from the hands of the petite girl. This time, he would taste it carefully.
As a proper food tester, he would judge the look, smell, and taste.
First, he carefully took in the shape of the dumpling.
Song Shuhang squeezed it and looked at it affectionately.
It looks both very cute and delicious.
Then, he smelled it.
The dumpling itself had no smell, and it was likely that its fragrance would only be released when it melted in one’s mouth. Yet, it seemed to be tainted with a faint fragrance.
Hmm, it’s the scent of the petite girl in front of me.
The last step was to taste it.
Because he was worried that it would melt in his mouth and he would not be able to taste it properly, Song Shuhang decided to lick it first.
He pinched the dumpling and held it high, sticking out his tongue and licking it.
Then… the small dumpling melted along his tongue, slid into his mouth, and flowed into his stomach.
The whole process was very fast, Song Shuhang’s throat seemed to have opened a VIP channel for the small dumpling, allowing it to move unimpeded.
Song Shuhang: “…”
F*ck, I didn’t get to taste anything.
While sighing, Song Shuhang sat down cross-legged and said to the long white strip and the petite girl, “Let’s wait for a few minutes and see if I die from poisoning.”
Sister White Dragon and Sixteen nodded.
Sister White Dragon had nothing to do, so she also picked some dumplings from the air.
❄️❄️❄️
A few minutes later…
Sixteen was hugging a pile of white dumplings, a confused look on her face.
Sister White Dragon was coiled around another pile of white dumplings, her expression also one of puzzlement.
“Where is this place?”
“What am I doing?”
“What are these white dumplings?”
“Why am I picking these white dumplings?”
The two found themselves filled with doubts.
Song Shuhang frowned and stood up. He thought for a while and guessed, “I suspect that these white balls are some kind of food.”
Scarlet Heaven Sword on his back asked worriedly, “Can they be eaten? What if they’re poisonous?”
Sister White Dragon and Sixteen also looked at the white dumplings worriedly.
Song Shuhang gritted his teeth and said, “We must be careful of unknown food. There are four of us here. How about… How about you let me test if they are poisonous? I will eat one first. Everyone can wait for a while and see if I get poisoned. If I eat it and I’m fine afterwards, then you guys can eat them as well.”
Sixteen said, “Okay.”
After she said that, she came to Song Shuhang’s side and motioned for him to take a dumpling from her arms.
Song Shuhang stretched out his hand and picked up a fist-sized dumpling.
Holding the dumpling, he sized it up and smelled it. Then, he raised his head and pinched the fruit, licking it lightly.
The white dumpling turned into liquid and deftly followed the VIP channel in Song Shuhang’s throat down into his stomach.
Song Shuhang: “…”
“I feel a strong sense of déjà vu.” Sixteen wrinkled her little nose.
Sister White Dragon nodded and said, “Me too.”
The black Scarlet Heaven Sword patted Song Shuhang with its hilt. “How is it? Do you feel anything? Does your stomach hurt?”
Song Shuhang said seriously, “It tastes delicious, but nothing else. Let’s wait a little longer. If I’m fine, it means that the white dumplings are edible.”
He then sat cross-legged and waited for the effect of the dumpling.
Sixteen, Sister White Dragon, and Scarlet Heaven Sword watched from the sidelines.
“Hmm, I seem to feel something.” Song Shuhang began to calmly analyze his state. “My body, from shoulders to chest, feels itchy.”
“Does that mean that the dumplings are poisonous?” Scarlet Heaven Sword exclaimed.
Song Shuhang said, “No, they do not look poisonous. This feeling is different from poisoning. This itchy feeling is pretty comfortable. I feel as if I’m being reborn.”
Sixteen said, “Are the dumplings edible? I feel a little hungry.”
Sister White Dragon waved her claws and said calmly, “Let’s wait for a while longer. It’s often after the itchy and comfortable sensation that the poison kicks in. The itching and pleasure might be illusions brought about by the flaring of the poison.”
And so, everyone began watching Song Shuhang again.
❄️❄️❄️
Meanwhile, in Garre Holy Mountain’s trial area.
Two days had passed since Song Shuhang and the others were drawn into the secret realm, and it was already November 29th in China.
Inside the secret realm left behind by Wielder of the Will White, Fellow Daoist Stone Tablet silently guarded Song Shuhang and his wooden body.
Because the wooden body had no consciousness of its own, it was not affected by the time reversal.
In addition, within the past two days, the stone tablet also found the bodies of White Dragon and Sixteen and brought them under its protection.
The method by which it protected the bodies was simple and crude. It dug a large hole, created a sealed space within it, and stuffed Song Shuhang and the others into it.
Finally, it placed its body on top, forming a perfect defense.
A gravestone, a tree, and a treasure sword… A sense of loneliness pervaded the air.
“Huh? Shuhang’s aura has changed…” The stone tablet ‘looked’ into the tomb.
Song Shuhang’s physical body, which only had a head and shoulders left, began to grow rapidly.
In a few breaths, he had regrown his body until his chest.
Now, he finally had a chest that people could rely on.
At the same time, a drop of blood emerged from the wooden body.
Beneath this drop of blood was a net, and a seven-colored light came from it.
The drop of blood plunged into the grave and merged with Song Shuhang’s body.
