Upon seeing this scene, everyone in the kitchen was so scared that they kept quiet.
They weren't shocked by the other party's strength, but they were terrified of the supervisor's anger. He was a solid Foundation Building Level 1 cultivator.
Who among the people present had broken through to the Foundation Building Stage? Not a single person. Other than the arrangements made by the higher-ups, his cultivation level crushed everyone present.
Even though these people had their opinions, they didn't dare to disobey his wishes. After all, this wasn't the place to reason. Other than the appointment, whoever had the bigger fist had the right to speak.
The supervisor's face was dark as he looked around. All he saw were old people. As for the new disciples, it was okay for them to cook for the outer sect disciples, but they had to be reliable when it came to cooking for the big shots.
After working so hard for a few days, he was going to treat them to a meal tomorrow, and the dishes were all gone?
"Keep your mouths shut. If we can't find out anything tonight, don't even think of leaving!" the supervisor said in an unquestionable tone. Then, his sharp eyes scanned the surroundings. He wanted to see who could be sabotaging the plan in secret.
On the other side, in the fireplace, the kitchen staff heard other sounds from outside the door.
Clang ~~
Clang ~~
Clang ~~
They hurriedly ran in to take a look at the situation. Looking at the old mantou that had disappeared, the few of them looked at each other, then they started discussing in low voices.
"It's just some steamed buns missing. It shouldn't be a big problem!"
"Don't you need to report this?"
"Are you deaf? Didn't you hear the scolding from the other side? Many things have been lost, so let's not add to the mess!"
"I'm just afraid that we'll be punished."
The few of them finally came to a unanimous decision. They had to hide the news that the mantou had disappeared.
Although it was possible that people would find out later, they would just steam more tomorrow.
Wu Gan and Song Wan looked at each other. They recalled their lost roast chicken.
"F*ck! Was that a hungry ghost? Did they have to eat so much?" Wu Gan shook the fat on his body and said in dissatisfaction.
Song Wan quickly covered his mouth and whispered into his ear," Let's just leave this matter as it is. If the investigation continues, maybe the matter of us stealing food will be found out!"
Upon hearing this, the fatty's body stopped shaking, and his breathing became heavy. His face turned slightly red.
After a rough inspection, everyone walked out of the house.
Lin Shiqing, who was on the roof, heard everyone's voices, and her face was filled with anger and dissatisfaction.
"Second brother, these people have a good plan. They are actually planning to put all the things that they have embezzled on you!"
"It's settled, it's settled!" Lin Bei consoled Lin Shiqing.
The people downstairs heard something again.
Clang ~~
Clang ~~
Clang ~~
They looked at each other. Did they encounter a ghost?
"Did we encounter something sinister?!" Wu Gan, the fat man, said carefully as he leaned on Song Wan's back.
Upon hearing this, Song Wan suddenly felt the temperature around him drop. Could there be a ghost cultivator?
When the remaining people heard Wu Gan's words, their faces revealed a trace of fear.
"W-Why don't we call the others to come over and take a look?" one of them suggested. After all, there was no harm in being careful when encountering such a strange thing.
"Yeah, he's right! Why don't we call the others over to help?" someone agreed.
Hearing the discussions around him, the skinny Song Wan secretly fumed inwardly, "A bunch of cowards! You'll see how powerful I am later." Thinking of this, he walked in on his own.
Behind him, Wu Gan was so nervous that his entire body was trembling, and his legs were shaking.
"Song... Song Wan, I... I can..." Fatty Wu Gan stuttered.
"We can't!" the skinny Song Wan rejected without hesitation. 'What a joke. If no one goes in with me, who will see me show off my power?'
The few people behind saw the two of them enter. They also followed him in with rolling pins in their hands. They didn't want to go, but since someone was taking the lead, they had to go.
They stood side by side and began inspecting the house.
The house was very large and was divided into two parts. There was a row of tables in front of them, and the square tables were placed next to each other. On the left was the air-blowing port, with a large row of push-and-pull air-blowing devices, while the right side was divided into two levels. On top of it was a steamer used to steam things. Below it was a large wok that could be used to stir-fry vegetables. The ventilation was excellent.
Suddenly, there was a gushing sound in the air. The few people below almost peed their pants.
Fatty Wu Gan even closed his eyes and mumbled, "God bless, Bodhisattva bless, Sakyamuni Buddha bless, heavenly lord bless! Amitabha!"
The skinny Song Wan felt a little frustrated. "Fatty, lower your voice. You're disturbing me!"
"Oh!" Wu Gan replied. He heard someone blowing hot air into his ear, but he continued to mutter. "Skinny man, I'm chanting the blessings of the gods and Buddhas. How can you say that?" he retorted in dissatisfaction.
The surrounding people didn't dare to speak loudly. Although they didn't know if the fatty's words were useful, who could care so much?
These people sneaked up to fatty Wu Gan and whispered, "Fatty, can you teach us?!" the few of them surrounded him and said politely.
The fat man said arrogantly, "My grandmother taught me these when I was young, and I only knew a little." However, he wouldn't tell these people that he was an idiot who didn't know anything. He rubbed his thumb and index finger together.
"Stop for a moment!" the skinny Song Wan finished patting the fat Wu Gan's head. He turned to look at the open stove on the ground and conveniently closed it.
Just like that, everyone checked through the place without any danger, but they didn't see any signs of anyone.
Suddenly, a loud laugh came from the roof. The crowd hurriedly looked up, but they didn't see anyone. Then, they heard someone talking not far behind them.
"I'm so miserable! I died so miserably!" Lin Bei said while pinching his throat.
Hearing this voice, the speed at which everyone ran out was so fast that even Foundation Building cultivators would have to call them good guys!
It was as if everyone had turned into a hurricane. With a swish, they all disappeared.
Soon after, Lin Bei jumped onto the roof and gave Lin Shiqing a good beating.
"Second Brother, why did you hit me again? I'll become stupid if I get hit too many times!" Lin Shiqing pouted and said unhappily.
"You still have the cheek to say that? If you didn't suddenly laugh, would I need to scare them away?" Lin Bei whispered angrily.
"Second Brother, where are we going next?" Lin Shiqing asked cautiously.
"Let's get out of here!" Lin Bei said with a serious face. He did not know why he could eat so much now. In the past, he would have been full after eating one-tenth of the food!
And so, Lin Bei dragged Lin Shiqing to another roof not far away.
