Matrix Survival: One random treasure chest per day

Chapter 235 Love and Sichuan Cuisine Are the Only Things You Shouldn't Let Down! (Special Edition)

After checking the group chat for a while, Li Zheng roughly figured out what had happened.

The story begins with Li Chun.

During dinner tonight, she took out the dishes that Li Zheng had sent and tasted them briefly.

Although the dish had been served for a while, it had completely cooled down.

But the taste and texture, different from barbecue, still delighted the little girl.

At the time, Li Zheng's private messages were locked, and the group was mostly made up of his own people, so Li Chun simply expressed his gratitude in the group chat.

Now things are really messed up. Those group members who didn't get their food but were tired of the barbecue are getting anxious and are frantically tagging Li Zheng to demand an explanation.

Fengshan: "His surname is Li... no, my dear brother! I need some food to improve our meals! I'm getting sick of eating barbecue every day! @Li Zheng"

Yan Guang: "Although I would also like to improve the taste of the food, I am the one who cooks all three meals every day. Isn't it too arrogant of you to say such things so blatantly in front of me?"

Fengshan: "...Two plates! My treat! @Li Zheng, @Yan Guang"

Yan Guang: "That's more like it. Let's eat it secretly, without letting Xiaoyu know!"

Fengshan: "This isn't a good idea... but that's what I think too!"

Ye Yuan: "You two, have some decency! What did Yu Xiaoyu do to deserve this? And by the way, I'd like to ask for three servings! Don't ask me why I'm asking for more than others, it's just because my chest is too flat, I need to fill it out! @Li Zheng"

Ye Kai: "Ahem! Xiao Yuan, watch your words!"

Chu Xiao: "Well... after I grew to giant size, my appetite is bigger. Is it too much to ask for ten dishes?"

Lu Li: "I have never seen such a shameless person!"

The group echoed: "+1!"

Chu Xiao said awkwardly, "Never mind then, I'll take two portions and save one for tomorrow morning."

Up to this point, everyone's emotions were relatively stable, and they weren't as frantic.

Until someone who loves a good show suddenly jumped out...

Xiao Siyuan: "Hmm? You guys haven't tried Li Zheng's cooking yet, have you?"

Everyone asked in surprise, "You've already eaten? When did that happen?"

Xiao Siyuan said smugly, "I already ate it. I thought you all had some!"

The group then asked, "Is it delicious? How does it taste?"

Xiao Siyuan reminisced, "It's alright, better than most restaurants. The main thing is that his dishes can give people a buff, which is pretty good."

Now, everyone in the group went crazy, just like they used to chase after the sleeping Fengshan for his pocket watch, and they tagged Li Zheng like crazy.

When Li Zheng was woken up by Xiao Ying, he opened the group chat and found that he had received tens of thousands of mentions from more than a dozen people!
Lian Zhanzhou and Liu Jiale later joined in, afraid of missing out on the opportunity to improve the taste.

After all, since the start of the game, they haven't heard of anyone possessing anything other than barbecue and ingredients.

Honestly, some of the ingredients in the Matrix taste better than many restaurant dishes.

But even the most delicious food can become tiresome if you eat the same thing too often.

Is Buddha Jumps Over the Wall delicious?

It was praised to an incredible degree.

Why don't you try eating Buddha Jumps Over the Wall three times a day for a week?
The smell alone makes you want to vomit!

The problem isn't how long you've been eating it, but rather your future prospects—that you might be eating this stuff for every meal.

You'll feel even more nauseous!

Li Zheng hadn't expected these people to be so enthusiastic. It took him more than ten minutes to scroll through the chat history. With such intense screen-filling, he almost thought the sky was falling.

It turned out to be because of a small dish, which left him speechless.

Li Zheng thought for a moment and didn't rush to reply. Instead, he went to the stove to install the cooking program, then brought over a large amount of ingredients and seasonings, choosing only those that cooked quickly.

Soon, a variety of dishes, both hot and cold, were prepared, and the aromas of several special foods mingled together, wafting through the capsule dwelling.

Bang!
The bathroom door opened, and Sakura, her body still wet, peered out, her nose twitching as she greedily inhaled the fragrance.

Just smelling the aroma of the food, Sakura didn't even take a bath. She stood at the door, drooling, looking at Li Zheng with anticipation, asking if they would have extra food tonight.

"What are you doing eating a midnight snack so late at night? Go take a shower and go to bed!" Li Zheng's ruthless words shattered Xiaoying's beautiful fantasy.

Disappointed, it retreated into the bathroom, slammed the door shut, and made a resentful sound.

They let people smell the aroma but don't let them eat it.

Isn't this bullying an honest person...? No, honest Sakura!
It's ignoring its owner, how annoying!

"Hey~ You're eating Chinese food for every meal now, and you're still not tired of it?" Li Zheng was surprised by Xiaoying's pursuit and dedication to food, but he still didn't have the idea of ​​having an extra meal today.

Eating late-night snacks is bad for your health.

It's easy to gain weight!

He then posted the attributes of these dishes in the group chat, allowing group members to choose their favorite dishes.

The price wasn't high either. Li Zheng used only black iron-grade ingredients this time, which were inherently good quality and inexpensive. Although everyone was scrambling for them, at least no fight broke out.

Finally, Li Zheng sent a picture of a "Black Iron Grade" boiled pork slices to the group chat, and the atmosphere in the group changed drastically. Zhan Zhouzhou said, "I'll take this boiled pork slices, everyone please give me some face."

Yan Guang: "Sister Zhan, everything else is negotiable, but there's no room for negotiation on boiled pork slices!"

Fengshan: "We will not give an inch!"

Yan Guang: "Yes, we won't allow it!"

It's rare that these two have actually reached a consensus on this issue and stood on the same side.

Li Zheng didn't know what expression to make when he saw this.

Feng, whom Yan Guang had tried so hard to win over, seemed to be succumbing to the allure of delicious food.

At this moment, Li Zheng suddenly looked forward to Yan Guang finally gaining ownership. He wondered what price Feng was willing to pay and what extent he would go to get a taste of this boiled pork slices.
Ye Yuan: "Dear brothers and sisters, please let me have the boiled pork slices! I haven't had any taste of home in so long! Waaaaah~"

Ye Kai: "Little sister, be strong, don't give in to evil forces! Don't beg them, your big brother will buy it for you!"

Lu Li: "Huh? I can do that too! Uncles and aunts, please have pity on your nephew. I'm a complete stranger in the Matrix, and I only have my elderly father to rely on. Now my father is terminally ill, and his only wish before he dies is to eat a plate of boiled pork slices. Uncles and aunts, please grant this filial son's wish!"

Everyone: "...Get out!"

Li Zheng: "You son of a bitch!"

[Group member "Lu Li" was banned from speaking for three hours by the administrator.]

Chu Xiao: "I'm delighted!"

Ye Kai: "Big chunks...that's gratifying!"

Liu Jiale: "The person upstairs almost blurted out the truth. Enough of the talk, I'll offer ten Black Iron Cores for this boiled pork slices!"

Feng Shan roared, "Playing this game? Who's afraid of who? I'll offer twelve!"

Yan Guang: "Do you have that many?"

Fengshan: "You can pay for it first, I'll pay you back later."

Liu Jiale scoffed: "King of gigolos?"

Fengshan was furious: "You surnamed Liu, what do you mean by this?"

Liu Jiale: "The literal meaning."

Fengshan snapped, "You looking for trouble, huh? Let's fight one-on-one!"

Liu Jiale: "Come on! Who's afraid of who?"

Ye Kai fanned the flames: "Let's fight! Let's fight! I'll offer fourteen! Let's fight!"

Chu Xiao: "Don't think we can't see it just because you've mixed the prices in the middle. I'll offer two bronze dynamic cores!"

Zhan Zhouzhou: "Four!"

Ye Yuan: "Six! My brother will pay!"

Yan Guang: "Eight! Any more than that are yours."

Zhan Zhouzhou: "A silver core!"

Ye Kai: "You're from Zhejiang and Hangzhou, what are you doing stealing Sichuan food?"

Zhan Zhouzhou: "Ha! I, Zhan, have only two hobbies in this life: swordsmanship and food! As for food, I especially love Sichuan cuisine. If you don't agree, raise the price, and I'll keep you company to the end!"

Ye Kai: "Hey~ My short temper, two silver cores!"

Seeing that the group was almost fighting over a serving of boiled pork slices, Li Chun, who hadn't spoken up until now, suddenly said, "Speaking of which...why not have Brother Li Zheng buy everyone a serving of boiled pork slices? Why ruin the harmony?"

Everyone suddenly realized: "That's right! @Li Zheng, do you have any more? Bring us more!"

Li Zheng looked at the nearly finished boiled pork slices on the stove and silently replied in the group chat: "That's all, just this one. Whoever gets it keeps it."

Now things have really gotten out of hand; the people in the group are actually on the verge of fighting over a single serving of boiled pork slices.

Liu Jiale will face off against the husband-and-wife duo of Yan Guang and Feng Shan.

Ye Kai, together with his sister, fought against Zhan Zhouzhou, refusing to give an inch.

Chu Xiao originally intended to watch the show and secretly seize the item, but Ye Kai dragged him into the fray, and together they targeted Zhan Zhouzhou.

Li Chun tried to break up the fight, while Xiao Siyuan watched the show.

Lu Li felt that the whole world had nothing to do with him. He was isolated and lonely, secretly hating himself for speaking carelessly and offending the person he should never have offended.

Li Zheng...

He called Xiaoying out after she finished showering, and they shared boiled pork slices together. Watching the drama unfolding in the group chat, he felt quite pleased.

"That's great, you guys even gave me a whole chapter just for a bowl of boiled pork slices, I'm so grateful."

……

There are two major events in life.

Just three meals a day.
