Chapter 668 Colorful Bird
Chapter 668 Colorful Bird
Fu Ling's face was full of pride. She patted Lu Beichen's shoulder and said, "Learn more."
Xuanyuan Gen was caught off guard by this wave of dog food and felt a little full before he even ate.
Xuanyuan Gen had specifically instructed the kitchen staff about dinner. Fu Ling was very familiar with six of the ten dishes. She had spoken highly of these six dishes before. Although it was just a casual comment, it was obvious that they took it to heart.
"Ling'er, Beichen, these are Xuanyuan's famous dishes, you should try them."
Fu Ling picked up a piece of meat and put it in her mouth. She had tasted all sorts of delicious food, but she had no idea what kind of meat it was. She asked curiously, "Myna, what kind of meat is this? I don't think I've ever eaten it before."
"This is a bird that only our Xuanyuan has. It's plump and delicious, but the amount we can eat each year is limited. The meat of this bird is naturally sweet, and once cooked, it becomes a delicious delicacy."
"I see, that's quite interesting. What's the name of this bird?"
"Its tail is colorful. Although it's called the Colorful Iris Bird, it's also known as the Colorful Bird."
"Wow, that's a nice name."
"Ahem!" Xuanyuan Gen continued, "Although the name sounds nice, the appearance might disappoint you. The colorful bird is very fat and has short legs, so it's not good at flying."
Ugh, oh my god... I'm not good at flying. What kind of bird is that? Is this thing just a joke?
Fu Ling didn't understand and asked, "If they can't fly, why are they classified as birds?"
Xuanyuan Gen chuckled: "Aside from its fat body, the colorful bird is no different from other birds in every way."
Fu Ling developed a strong interest in this bird and felt that turtledoves were no longer so popular recently.
“I must see this bird if I get a chance.”
"Okay, when you come back from Wanyao Valley, I'll take you there to see it."
"It's settled then." Fu Ling was looking forward to it.
Seeing that she loved eating, Lu Beichen never left Fu Ling’s bowl empty.
She didn't like eating alone, so she gestured for Lu Beichen to try it as well: "You try it too, it tastes just as good as turtledove."
He picked up a piece of meat and put it in his mouth. Fu Ling's eyes were sparkling with stars. He looked at him expectantly and asked, "Is that so? It's delicious, right?"
"Well, it's indeed a rare delicacy." Even though he didn't have much demand for delicious food, he still praised it highly.
"I want to catch a few and raise them." Fu Ling said happily, avoiding suspicion.
"Ling'er, do you know why this bird is so rare?" Xuanyuan Gen put down his chopsticks and asked.
Fu Ling thought for a moment and said, "I guess it's because of the climate?"
Xuanyuan Gen smiled and shook his head: "No."
"It's not the climate? Then what could it be?" Fu Ling became very interested.
"The reason why the spotted bird is so rare is because it is very picky about food."
"Picky eater? How do you say that?" Fu Ling asked while eating.
"The Colorful Bird only eats a kind of fruit called the Seven Colors, and this fruit is only grown in abundance in the area around Xuanyuan Lizhou."
Fu Ling was very interested: "A bird that only eats flowers and fruits? This is the first time I've heard of a bird that only eats flowers and fruits. Does it eat insects, grains, and the like?"
"It seems not too late, and this bird likes places with beautiful mountains and rivers. Although it looks a little stupid, it is particularly fond of cleanliness." Xuanyuan Gen's face was full of smiles when he talked about the colorful bird, which was enough to prove his love for this bird.
"I see. Maybe it's not the case in other places, but it's not a big problem for me."
Xuanyuan Gen recalled his experience in the mysterious space. The environment there was just right. During the days he was there, the temperature was the same every day. There were birds singing and flowers blooming everywhere, and it was a beautiful sight.
In fact, he went to many places, but never found any danger. For the colorful bird, it was indeed a place to go.
"Yes, Ling'er, there should be no problem."
"I'm looking forward to meeting you more and more." Fu Ling licked the corner of her mouth. She has always had no resistance to delicious food.
"Okay, I promise you, when you return from the Myriad Medicine Valley, I will take you there to see it."
"Since it's so rare, there should be someone guarding it, right?"
"Yes, it's heavily guarded there. This bird only appears at the annual state banquet, and it's hard to get it on ordinary days. I recently asked my father for permission to get this one, and it's a coincidence that it was just delivered to the palace today."
Fu Ling smiled, his eyebrows curved: "I'm lucky. If it was a few days later, I probably wouldn't be able to eat it."
Sent to the Xuanyuan Dynasty, due to climate change, the colorful bird could not be preserved for a long time and the probability of death was extremely high.
"Ling'er likes it. When you come back, I'll ask my father for a few more. This bird is also very delicious when made into antique soup."
Dinner ended with a discussion about the colorful bird. Today's dishes were all good, and as expected, Fu Ling was full again.
"Okay, we're done with dinner, Myna...it's time for us to set off too." Fu Ling said after taking a sip of tea.
"Be careful, the Myriad Medicine Valley is full of dangers. It's located in the valley, and poisonous miasma appears from time to time. If you inhale it, it may be life-threatening."
"Okay, we will pay attention." The couple can be said to be immune to all poisons, so they are naturally not afraid of these miasma. Even if they happen to encounter them, they are not afraid at all.
"Also, Wanyao Valley isn't a place to save people. It's a hodgepodge of good and bad people. You must be careful, especially with the people from the Poison Sect. They behave erratically and aren't easy to get along with."
"Remember, we will be careful and cautious." Lu Beichen replied.
"And..." Xuanyuan Gen was about to give some instructions but was interrupted by Fu Ling.
She smiled brightly and said, "My dear brother, don't worry. Lu Beichen and I are not impulsive people. We have been together for so long and have never had any setbacks. You can be at ease. Speaking of caution, my dear brother, you should be even more cautious. Remember to find an excuse to send away Aunt Lin and the other one who came with me. Don't let it get out of hand. If Queen Mother knew I was missing, she would be terrified."
"Don't worry, Ling'er. I will definitely complete whatever you ask me to do."
"Let's go." Fu Ling took Lu Beichen's hand.
Just as he was about to teleport away, Lu Beichen called out to him, "Wait."
"Huh? What's wrong?" Fu Ling was full of confusion.
He pulled Fu Ling back and walked to Xuanyuan Gen. Suddenly, a pistol appeared in his hand: "I think you have seen this thing."
Xuanyuan Gen's eyes lit up. It was more than just something he had seen before. He had been coveting this thing for a long time ever since he watched a modern drama.
However, even in their era, it was not easy to obtain. Xuanyuan Gen kept this matter in mind, and never thought that he would be able to see it with his own eyes today.
"I have seen it. This is a pistol from your era." His eyes could not be taken away at all, and were already fixed on the pistol.
This is a semi-automatic pistol, considered a collection item of the big boss.
