Chapter 467 Jade Pendant
Chapter 467 Jade Pendant
"Ayue, durian is also grown in the southernmost part of the country and is sent to the palace every year. Every durian sent to the palace is carefully selected and relatively large in size. However, the largest durian in the palace is a little too small compared to the one you brought out."
Li Mengyue knew that Xie Ruiyuan was telling the truth. She was already surprised that there were durians in this era, and she didn't dare to expect how big they would be.
What's more, even the durian of later generations is far smaller than the one in her hand. Basically, a small durian weighs two or three kilograms, and a larger durian weighs only more than ten kilograms.
It can be said that the 120-jin durian she took out now is as heavy as ten large durians added together in the future.
Based on her knowledge of the fruits of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the durian that Xie Ruiyuan mentioned, even if it was relatively large, would probably weigh only four or five kilograms.
At this time, Xie Ruiyuan was already standing in front of the durian, but this time he was not as excited to see the durian.
After all, to be with Li Mengyue, one needs to have a strong heart and super endurance, otherwise it is easy to be scared by Li Mengyue.
Li Mengyue's consciousness was still paying attention to the space. Watching Tuanzi's emotional changes, she once again had to sigh that Tuanzi's nickname of little foodie was really well-deserved and not false at all.
Because before the durian was taken out, Tuanzi was crying loudly and no matter how she tried to comfort him, it wouldn't work.
But a durian made Tuanzi stop crying.
[Host, host, this big durian is what I like, and I have never been willing to eat it, how can you give it to me. ]
【Oh, the durian is mine, why can't I take it. 】
[If it's yours, it's mine, right? We are who we are, why do we need to be so clear about it? ]
[It’s not necessary to distinguish so clearly, but you are crying, I am going to eat with Xie Ruiyuan. ]
[Host, I didn't cry, I didn't cry, I won't cry now, give me some too, I don't want much, just give me half, and there's also the King of Kings, the King of Kings and I will share it together.]
Li Mengyue was so angry that she almost laughed when she heard Tuanzi's impolite words.
For a little durian, he can abandon all principles. She is really helpless about Tuanzi's temper.
But she also knew that it was because of Tuanzi that her life was less boring and she had spiritual comfort.
She took out the durian just to coax Tuanzi. Now that Tuanzi stopped crying, of course she would not be stingy with half of the durian.
Besides, the durians in the space were not sold. They were kept for eating. It can make Tuanzi happy, so it is worthwhile.
Xie Ruiyuan watched Li Mengyue take out a knife out of thin air and prepare to cut the durian.
"Ayue, don't move. Give me the knife. I'll open the durian."
Since someone was willing to work, Li Mengyue was of course happy to have some free time, and handed the knife to Xie Ruiyuan without hesitation.
Xie Ruiyuan peeled the durian quickly and neatly. The moment he opened it, the stench was so overpowering that Li Mengyue almost vomited.
But before Li Mengyue could spit it out, the fresh and sweet fragrance penetrated into her nose, making her salivate.
Since Li Mengyue got the giant durian, she has not treated herself and Tuanzi badly. Except for selling a small portion, she kept most of the rest.
Whenever she feels hungry, she will eat a little bit of it, and she will also give some to her parents from time to time.
If the durians were guarded by the giant snake, each one would be very large, but giant durians are relatively precious, so she only got sixty-eight of them. After selling a few and adding the ones she ate on a daily basis, there were only fifty-three durians left in the space.
It was true that one less was left after each one was eaten. Now she took out another one, and there were only fifty-two left.
Xie Ruiyuan had already peeled a small half of the durian, but even so, there was still a lot left and the two of them couldn't finish it all at once.
If it doesn't matter, if the two of them can't finish it, don't they still have Tuanzi, the little foodie? I'm afraid it won't be enough for Tuanzi.
Li Mengyue took it from Xie Ruiyuan and started eating.
It was the first time for Xie Ruiyuan to eat it. Looking at the yellow and plump flesh, he took a bite and felt a soft and tender feeling on the tip of his tongue. It was neither sweet nor greasy. Even though he didn't like sweets very much, he felt that the sweetness was just right.
The key is that the rich taste also has a special aroma, which is absolutely incomparable to the durian in the palace.
"How about it?"
“Delicious.”
Hearing Xie Ruiyuan say this, Li Mengyue felt very proud, because this was the durian she snatched from the giant snake's mouth.
So Li Mengyue told Xie Ruiyuan the process of getting the durian.
"Ayue, you are not allowed to take risks like this in the future."
"It's okay. I'm confident. I've captured the giant snake. Besides, if it weren't for the giant snake, I wouldn't be able to make the antidote for the cold poison."
"What do you mean?"
"Nothing, I just need to prepare an antidote for the poison, which requires the gallbladder of a hundred-year-old snake. I encountered that giant snake, so I can only blame it for its bad luck."
Xie Ruiyuan knew that the antidote for the cold poison was difficult to prepare, but he didn't expect it to be so difficult. Not to mention other things, just the gall of a hundred-year-old snake was extremely difficult to find.
He believed that the antidote to the cold poison would definitely require other medicinal ingredients.
"Ayue, the medicinal materials for the cold poison antidote are extremely precious."
"No, most of them are easy to find. You know the hundred-year-old snake gallbladder, and the thousand-year-old ginseng and the thousand-year-old Ganoderma lucidum are a little harder."
Hearing about the two medicinal ingredients, thousand-year-old ginseng and thousand-year-old Ganoderma lucidum, Xie Ruiyuan took off the jade pendant he was wearing and handed it to Li Mengyue.
"what is this?"
Li Mengyue took the jade pendant and saw the word "Chen" on the back, and then she knew what it was.
As expected, Xie Ruiyuan said that this was a jade pendant representing his status, and with this jade pendant, he could use anything in the palace storehouse.
This is not important. The jade pendant also means that seeing the jade pendant is like seeing the Prince himself, and everyone in the palace must obey his orders.
"Take the jade pendant back. I can't have it."
"I will never take back anything I give away."
Xie Ruiyuan did not use "I" but instead used "this king". Li Mengyue took the jade pendant back immediately based on the principle of not letting someone get something for nothing.
"Well, seeing that you are so sincere, I will accept it with reluctance. But I won't take advantage of you. Take this snake skin and have someone process it and make it into a piece of clothing. Wear it under your clothes. It won't be visible to others and it will also ensure that it is invulnerable to swords and guns."
Xie Ruiyuan looked at the snake skin that appeared out of thin air in front of him. No matter how strong his mental state was, his calm heart was inevitably disturbed.
The giant snake in Li Mengyue's mouth is really a giant snake, without any discount. At first glance, the delicate texture on the snake skin forms a unique, layered pattern, and the neatly arranged and evenly sized scales add a unique visual effect to the snake skin.
The key is that the snake skin is a rare golden color, which contains unique charm and beauty. It is definitely more precious than the giant durian.
