Chapter 59: Pei Zhi Can’t Get A Hang of It
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The moment he approached, the black chicken flapped its wings and clucked.
The dust raised by its flappings splashed all over Pei Zhi, and even his arm was decorated with two chicken feathers.
He frowned and attempted to catch it again, as if he was determined to get this black chicken. The other chickens were startled and flew around. It was a lively scene.
Zhou Yanshen, who was leaning against the coop fence, chuckled and gave him an idea. “Bro, do you want to trick it with food?”
Pei Zhi stopped in his tracks.
He grabbed Zhou Yanshen’s collar and pushed open the coop to pull him in. He then went to get some grains. “I’ll feed it grains while you try to catch it.”
Zhou Yanshen let out a sigh. He turned off the video recorder and decided to help Pei Zhi out.
He waited for the black chicken to stop flapping before sneaking up to it quietly.
“Cluck—”
Another series of clucking sounded.
The black chicken, who had escaped from the demonic claws again, kicked the person behind it.
“Damn!” Zhou Yanshen was furious after being kicked
Initially, he wanted Pei Zhi to find another chicken, but now, he was bent on teaching this black chicken a lesson.
He pointed to the corner. “Corner it there.”
“Okay.” Pei Zhi gestured for him to stay still.
He threw the grain to the corner one by one. The moment the black chicken lowered its head, he pounced on it with Zhou Yanshen.
Before the black chicken could kick again, it was knocked unconscious.
Zhou Yanshen finally heaved a sigh of relief.
He put down the stone that was stained with chicken poop and walked to the sink to wash his smelly hands. “Have you ever killed a chicken before?”
“No.”
“It’s actually very simple. Just stab it.”
Pei Zhi’s lips twitched.
He picked up the unconscious chicken and walked into the kitchen with him. He wanted to boil the water before taking care of the chicken.
“Uncle, do you need help?” Lin Jiao thought that Pei Zhi had never done such a thing, so she came over to offer help.
“Yes, I do.” Pei Zhi did not want to let go of any opportunity to get closer to or interact with her.
He picked up the kitchen knife. “How?”
Lin Jiao sprinkled some salt on the basin and pointed at the black chicken’s neck. “Cut it open first.”
Pei Zhi found a wooden stool and sat down.
He expressionlessly slashed at the black chicken’s neck and used the basin to keep the blood.
“And?”
“Then soak it in boiling water.”
She poured boiled water from the pot into another wooden basin. “Soak it for two minutes and you can start plucking the feather.”
Pei Zhi tried to pluck a feather.
Lin Jiao could not stand his clumsiness anymore. She sat down beside him, grabbed his hand, and showed him how it was done.
When she leaned over, her head was almost touching his. “It’ll be much faster to pluck it out like this.”
Strangely, no matter what, Pei Zhi still seemed unable to get a hang of it.
When the warm touch left his hand, he asked Lin Jiao to give him another demonstration.
Zhou Yanshen, who was scraping fish scales at the side, glanced at the two of them. He could not help but admire Pei Zhi’s acting.
Just as he was about to look away, a familiar figure entered his vision.
He caught Lin Kanglu’s questioning gaze and smiled foolishly. Then he covered his mouth and coughed lightly as if reminding someone. “Old man, why are you here?”
“I can’t come?”
“Of course you can.”
Lin Kanglu looked at Pei Zhi and walked to the chopping board. He said in disdain, “Is this the fish you scraped?”
