The Strongest Prodigy Doctor

Chapter 399: Time to Eat


"You're here too, sir? You might not know, but after we hold the food competition here, the arriving tourists become the judges. On that day, tourists can receive ten wooden tokens, and each token can be given to the stalls they find delicious. In the end, we'll see which stall has the most tokens, and the one with the most wins." The waiter looked at Ye Tianfan in surprise before starting to explain.

"I see, I understand now!" Ye Tianfan nodded.

I didn't expect everyone to be a judge, so at that time, I could absolutely try every snack!

Wait a minute, it seems I forgot to ask something important.

"Hey, brother, does it still cost money to eat the snacks?" Ye Tianfan asked the core question; after all, if he plans to try everything, he feels the silver taels in his hand will definitely not be enough, since there's over a hundred snack stalls from the entrance of the town to this inn, not to mention the distance from the inn to another exit of the snack town, and there are still other streets.

In short, snack town truly lives up to its name, it feels like everyone's involved in snacks here.

Actually, Ye Tianfan guessed correctly in every way; snack town thrives on snacks, and every household is involved in it.

"In response to your question, it does cost money, but all snacks are half-priced that day. If you give one token to a stall, that stall will waive your expense and will even give you an extra portion." The waiter replied respectfully.

"Half-price? That's indeed good news!" Ye Tianfan nodded.

If it's half-priced, then the silver taels I have should definitely suffice until my stomach's full, especially with twenty portions of free snacks; overall, it's quite cost-effective.

Ye Tianfan returned to the inn with high expectations, surviving on plain food for two days. During these two days, he didn't dare to eat those snacks, nor spend too much elsewhere, as he wanted to save these silver taels for the snacks.

Finally, the official day of the competition arrived. The competition lasts for one day, and by evening, when the sun begins to set, they'll start counting the tokens, and the stall with the most tokens will win.

On the morning of the competition, Ye Tianfan basically left the inn with an empty stomach. As instructed, he received ten wooden tokens at the town center's stone platform and then joyfully mingled among the crowd, intending to start eating from the first stall.

Ye Tianfan arrived at the first stall, the same one he first visited when he got here, buying roasted chicken from this very stall.

It seems their stall offers roasted chicken on one side and stinky tofu on the other. Apparently, they're serving stinky tofu today.

This stinky tofu doesn't look very appealing, it doesn't even stir an appetite.

But isn't stinky tofu supposed to be like this?

Ye Tianfan bought the smallest portion, not taking any risks, as he feared it wouldn't taste good. After all, this stall specializes in roasted chicken.

As expected by Ye Tianfan, it was extremely ordinary, even somewhat unpleasant. If it wasn't for the aroma of the roasted chicken, Ye Tianfan probably wouldn't have finished even one bite.

After finishing the stinky tofu, Ye Tianfan ordered half a portion of roasted chicken to cleanse his palate, removing the taste of stinky tofu to avoid affecting the taste of the following snacks.

Moreover, Ye Tianfan decided that unless he sees a new product that he immediately wants to try, he'll stick to their main offerings.

In this way, Ye Tianfan munched his way from one end of the street to the other, distributing only four tokens out of his hand.

And the token allows for an extra portion, Ye Tianfan stuck with their original products.

It seems two days were not enough for them to research new products; their original offerings are still delicious.

But seeing these snacks already this tasty, I wonder just how delicious the snacks in the bigger Eating Town are, considering they are supposed to be even stronger, located northwest, five hundred kilometers away?

After thinking about leaving here tomorrow, Ye Tianfan considers going to the Big Eating Town as the next goal, possibly gathering some delicacies to sell there; otherwise, he reckons he might not even have the money for accommodation.

Ye Tianfan plans to go for another round, but his budget no longer allows it. Now he only has six tokens left, meaning he only has six more opportunities to enjoy free snacks.

In the end, Ye Tianfan chose some large items, wrapped in oiled paper, to eat on the road or use as bait to lure demon beasts or wild beasts along the way.

The next day, when Ye Tianfan prepares to leave the town, he finds the inn's waiter looking distressed, prompting him to ask, "Hey brother, what's happened? Why do you look so gloomy?"

"Oh, it's you, sir. If you're planning to leave, please be careful on the road, and try to go farther away from here, don't linger near this area, because last night, a demon beast caused trouble nearby." The waiter explained with a worried expression upon seeing Ye Tianfan.

"A demon beast caused trouble?" Ye Tianfan suddenly became excited, deciding not to leave just yet. He'll first take a look at the situation here; if he can defeat it, he'll stay to help the townspeople of the snack town subdue the demon beast. After all, exorcising demons is the responsibility of the righteous path disciples—not because demon beast meat is tastier—Ye Tianfan will stay.

"Yes, sir, a demon beast caused trouble last night. You better leave quickly! Last night, the beast took away numerous cattle and poultry, even the whole Li Family, resisting for their livestock, was... Alas, also taken away with the beast. Their whereabouts are unknown now, feared... feared to be doomed." The waiter spoke with some panic, fearing if the demon beast returns tonight, it would be his turn to be taken.

The few scattered people sitting in the store sighed, and some even cursed loudly. Ye Tianfan understood most of this; it's likely that the demon beast hasn't encountered a cultivator yet, otherwise, they'd surely behave submissively.

Understanding this, Ye Tianfan felt assured that he could definitely handle this.

"Ahem! At this point, it's time I stop hiding." As Ye Tianfan spoke, a charming smile played on his lips.

The waiter and the guests were curious as to what Ye Tianfan wanted to say.

"I confess, I'm a cultivator, exorcising demons is my duty. Leave dealing with this demon beast to me!" After Ye Tianfan spoke, he drew a line in the air with his right hand, a red light flashed by, and the Fire Lotus Sword was summoned. Without seeing any special movements, the Fire Lotus Sword began to freely roam in the air.

"Imm... Immortal?" The waiter was stunned to see Ye Tianfan directly summon a Divine Sword.

Though the waiter was dumbfounded, the other people were not. One immediately rushed out of the inn, shouting, "We're saved, the Immortal has arrived!"
