Chapter 1124 (1/2)

The burning time of the incense placed by the other party is obviously lower than the normal level. If Tang Lichuan guesses correctly, the incense can only take two breaths from lighting to burning out.

However, the conditions offered by the shopkeeper allowed him to remove all the bones of the fish in just two breaths. Under such harsh conditions, he was not allowed to hurt the fish's life. It was clearly deliberately difficult.

”I can't do it.”

Before the game started, Tang Lichuan shook his head and gave up. He felt that this condition could not be completed at all. It was a routine designed by the store to pit money.

”You created the problem, so you must know how to solve it! Show me!”

Tang Lichuan won't just give up. If the other party can solve this problem under the same conditions, Tang Lichuan is willing to gamble and admit defeat. He won't default on the five million spirit stones he should give.

But if these two guys just talk nonsense and deliberately pit money, Tang Lichuan is very willing to let the two profiteers taste the taste of fists.

”Hehe, since the guest has made a request, I have to make a fool of myself.”

In the face of Tang Lichuan's irresistible request, the shopkeeper smiled and pressed one hand on the surface of the small fish, while ordering his companion, ”order some incense.”

The moment the flame came into contact with the incense candle, accompanied by a burst of fire, the incense candle about a foot long immediately burned more than half, which was indeed a passive ”instant burning incense” of hands and feet.

”Hum, there's only one blink left. I'll see what you do!”

As soon as Tang Lichuan had this idea in mind, he saw that the man pressed his hand on the surface of the small fish and passed quickly. The small fish's mouth was slightly open. Tang Lichuan saw clearly that something seemed to fly out of the fish's mouth.

”Yes!”

The man smiled and spread his hand towards Tang Lichuan. There was only a handful of white powder in his palm. It looked like bone powder. This guy turned all the bones and bones in the fish into powder and took them out!

”You're cheating! You clearly said to pull out the fishbone, but you turned the fishbone into powder! You're playing a word game with me.”

An angry look flashed in his eyes. Although Tang Lichuan's perception had sensed that there were no bones in the fish, the fish still had a little breathing and did not die immediately, but he was unconvinced.

The reason why he gave up the experiment made it clear that the shopkeeper misled him by saying that he had to ”pull out” the fish bones.

”If you can use other means, I can!”

With a cold face, Tang Lichuan looked down at the little fish whose bones were taken out. Its struggling strength was getting smaller and smaller, as if it was about to die: ”it seems that your method of taking out the bones can't make the fish continue to survive. You will be punished for cheating people like this.”

Hearing the threat in Tang Lichuan's words, the two shopkeepers laughed: ”The cooking method of this kind of fish must first take the fish bones to be delicious, and in order to ensure freshness, it needs to be boiled in the pot immediately within ten breaths after removing the bones, so it is required that the survival time should not be too long! As for the rules, the small store does not make it clear. If the guests are not satisfied, they can try again, but the incense candles will not be changed. This is the rule.”

After one person finished, the other explained: ”The fishbone pulling test was originally used to test the strength of perception. This kind of fish is very delicate. If it is not enough to pull out the fishbone, it will damage the taste of the fish. Therefore, we must capture every subtle fishbone pattern with perception! As for the method of removing the fishbone, it depends on your personal level. Whatever method you can think of is up to you.”

Pulling the fish bones from the delicate fish without hurting the meat quality of the fish is indeed a way to test perception in some ways.

Tang Lichuan reluctantly accepted the result, and the threat in his eyes weakened a little. He said in a deep voice, ”get me another fish.”

The two shopkeepers smiled and rushed into the pond to catch one for Tang Lichuan. Then they looked at Tang Lichuan's action with their arms around their chest: ”when you're ready, shout to start! I'll help you order incense.”

”Start!”

A low roar came from Tang Lichuan's mouth, and the burning sound of incense candles also rang immediately.

Poof!

Tang Lichuan swept a finger under the fish's belly. The belly of the small fish was instantly cut open by his finger, and all the intestines and viscera of the fish were exposed. This move stunned everyone.
