C227 Wuwei Cup

"Where are all these things?" Zheng Lei blankly sat on the chair. Looking at the empty plate in front of him, he felt waves of shock in his heart.

Could it be poison? Zheng Lei was worried.

For this woman of unknown origins, all Zheng Lei had was one mystery after another. His identity was a mystery, his goal was a mystery, and even her current whereabouts were mysteries.

Zheng Lei carefully examined the situation within his body, but didn't discover anything out of the ordinary. However, Zheng Lei knew that if these things really were poison, it wouldn't necessarily result in an immediate attack.

After all, he had nothing to do with that woman, so there was no need for her to come and harm him. Furthermore, the three of them had called this place the world of his.

Since this was his world, if an outsider suddenly appeared, he would definitely be able to detect it.

Who could it be? Why did she invite me to eat? And these things, what are they for? Zheng Lei's heart felt as though it was filled with fifteen buckets of water, falling all over the place.

He quietly did it for a long time. If he was still moving, Zheng Lei had already been doing it for a few hours, but his body still didn't show any abnormalities.

The more time passed, the more worried Zheng Lei became, the more he felt, the more he had no other choice but to sit there quietly and wait. The good thing was, Zheng Lei knew that this was his world, outside his world, time was temporarily still.

After sitting there for a long time, Zheng Lei felt that there was nothing he could do. He stood up and decided to go out and take a look. Maybe he was just passing by.

He got up and walked to the door. He first carefully leaned against the crack of the door and listened for any sounds outside. It was very quiet. Then, he carefully opened the door.

The world outside caused Zheng Lei to be shocked. His right leg, which he had originally wanted to reach out to, had no choice but to withdraw.

It was originally a sea of flowers, but this thatched cottage was situated in the sea of flowers. However, what Zheng Lei saw was not a single flower, not even a single piece of land.

What remained before Zheng Lei's eyes was an endless void. Regardless of whether it was the sky or the ground, all he could see was boundless darkness.

Why was he in outer space again? Zheng Lei suppressed the astonishment in his heart and slowly closed the door. He returned to his seat and started to think about how to leave this place.

Could it be an illusion? This thought suddenly flashed across Zheng Lei's mind. He then picked up a teacup, opened the door, squatted down, extended his hand towards the outside of the door and lightly loosened his grip, causing the teacup to immediately sink into the ground.

About three seconds later, Zheng Lei's hand slowly began to squeeze. Even when his fingers were pressed together, Zheng Lei did not feel anything.

Zheng Lei gently retracted his hand and muttered to himself, "It really is empty space, what should we do? Also, you're not allowed to use your spirit energy here. Even if you use your spirit energy, you won't be able to fly with just my skill as a cat. Even if Master were to come here, I'm afraid he would only be able to do nothing. "

Returning to his seat, Zheng Lei helplessly looked at the table in front of him. On the table, there were five teacups.

Suddenly, Zheng Lei's eyes widened as he stared at the teacup on the table. It was as if he couldn't believe his eyes. Rubbing his eyes, he looked again and counted. That's right, there were five.

Just now, when he had brought the teacup to the entrance, he had unconsciously counted a total of five teacups placed around the teapot in the shape of plum blossoms.

But he had already taken one, and there were still five left.

Zheng Lei suddenly wondered if he had counted incorrectly. He picked up another teacup and threw it at the door.

This time, when Zheng Lei threw the teacup to him, he turned his head around and paid attention to the table.

When he let go of his hand, Zheng Lei suddenly felt something was wrong. He frowned as he looked around, but didn't find anything strange. However, when he looked at the table again, there were actually five teacups.

When did it come out? Zheng Lei's heart was filled with doubts.

He refused to give up and went to get another teacup. This time, he stared at the table, not even blinking.

After he released his hand, he continued to stare at the table. Even when he was walking, his eyes never left the table.

After staring for a long time, Zheng Lei felt that his eyes were extremely sore. After staring for so long, his eyes were unable to bear it any longer.

Without any other choice, Zheng Lei quickly blinked his eyes.

However, with a blink of an eye, the number of teacups in front of Zheng Lei returned to five.

"Who?" "Who's here?" Zheng Lei roared.

No one answered him, not even an echo.

"Come out right now!"

The room was extremely quiet. No matter how Zheng Lei shouted, no one replied, nor did anyone appear in front of him.

After yelling for a long time, Zheng Lei was also exhausted. Helplessly, he sat down on a chair, picked up a teacup, and poured himself a cup of tea before gulping it down in one gulp.

One cup after another, Zheng Lei didn't seem satisfied as he poured another cup.

With this cup, Zheng Lei wasn't in such a hurry to drink it. However, he spat it out with a 'pa' sound just as he was about to drink it.

"Ah, what tea is this? How could it be salty? It's clearly sweet when you were drinking it just now. " Zheng Lei frowned as he looked at the teapot in front of him.

Placing down the teacup and looking at it, Zhang Xuan pondered for a moment. Then, he recalled that the cup which he used to drink the tea was not the same as the one he used now.

Puzzled, he picked up the cup he had used for the first time. He placed the two cups together and studied it for a long time.

Helplessly putting down the teacup, Zheng Lei gloomily said, "Ah, forget it. I was born with a life for research. Why do I look the same no matter how I look at it?"

Five teacups were quietly lying on the table, looking like animals that were about to be slaughtered. Seeing this made Zheng Lei's heart tremble.

"No, I have to try again. I clearly felt that the tea just now was sweet. How did it turn salty?" Zheng Lei said to himself. Then he picked up the cup he used the first time and poured himself a cup of tea. He then placed it next to his mouth and slowly took a sip.

"Eh? How could this be? How did it become sweet again? " Zheng Lei said as he looked at the cup in his hand.

He picked up the teapot and poured the tea directly into his mouth. Without any taste, he smacked his lips and said, "It seems like the problem lies in the cup."

Putting aside the two cups that he had just used, Zheng Lei picked up the third cup and poured himself a cup of tea. He took a sip and his eyes narrowed involuntarily.

"Why is it vinegar?" Who could be so sick? You want to get a tea bowl of vinegar for nothing? " Zheng Lei grumbled as he picked up the fourth cup.

As he ate, Zheng Lei's eyes began to fill with tears.

He felt as if his stomach was on fire, so he quickly grabbed the teapot and drank to his heart's content.

With great difficulty, he managed to weaken the spicy taste on the tip of his tongue. Zheng Lei's heart still had lingering fear as he looked at the spicy cup and thought, "Sweet, salty, sour, and spicy, there are already four flavors. If I'm not wrong, these cups should correspond to five flavors."

Zheng Lei picked up the last teacup and poured a cup. After looking at it for a while, he felt a surge of energy in his heart and drank it all in one gulp.

After drinking it, Zheng Lei felt as if his stomach was overturning. The extremely bitter and bitter taste caused Zheng Lei's stomach to continuously churn.

"Damn!" It's even f * * king more bitter than a Coppertite? "Just what is it made of?" Zheng Lei wiped his mouth, wanting to wipe away the smell.

After resting for a while, Zheng Lei finally recovered from the excitement and looked at the cup of tea in front of him with a bitter face. Making these five teacups here is not only my own set rule, but also my own. If it really is the rule that I set myself, then wouldn't I be too much of a pain in the ass? "

He picked up the teapot and looked at it for a while. Then, he suddenly thought of something and exclaimed, "You're not going to let me finish this teapot, are you?" This teapot didn't look big, but he had already poured out seven cups of water. Now that he held this teapot, the weight didn't decrease at all.

Suddenly, Zheng Lei suspected that his guess was correct. Otherwise, in such a shoddy hut, Zheng Lei really didn't know what he could do here.

Thinking of this, Zheng Lei helplessly drank the tea once again, then experienced another five flavors of stimulation.

Even though it was his second time, and even though Zheng Lei had already mentally prepared himself, he still couldn't help but feel his stomach churn.

"Oh grandpa, how long are you going to let me drink these five teacups? And this broken teapot, isn't it too damaging? I just couldn't get all the water out of it. " Zheng Lei leaned against the back of the chair and said weakly.

After resting for a while, Zheng Lei mustered up his courage again and picked up the cup of bitterness. He wanted to leave the sweetness at the end.

After a round of struggle, when Zheng Lei finally lifted the cup of sweetness, he no longer felt the sweetness at all.

"The sun! I fell for it. Originally, I wanted to dilute the taste with sweetness, but I didn't expect that I wouldn't even be able to taste the sweetness now. " Zheng Lei said dejectedly.

This time, Zheng Lei raised his cup to the brim. Since he couldn't feel the sweetness anymore, he placed the cup in front. At least he could still feel the sweetness during the first cup, otherwise this cup of sweet water would have been wasted.

Just as Zheng Lei was about to drink his cup, he suddenly had a flash of inspiration and said to himself, "Five tastes is five, and five elements are also five. Why can't I remember?" The Five Flavors each have their own five elements. "

With that, he immersed his mind into his thoughts and searched for the books he had forced down in the past. Finally, he found a passage within them: sour wood, bitter fire, sweet earth, hot gold, salty water …

After finding this passage, Zheng Lei suddenly calmed himself down and laughed out loud. "I'm really too smart. The five elements are opposite each other, and each of them can counter the other. If I were to drink water based on the five elements, wouldn't I be able to minimize the stimulation of the taste?" Hahaha, for someone as smart as me, it's really rare. "

While Zheng Lei was smelly about it, he poured five cups of tea and arranged them in a straight line according to the sequence of the five elements. He placed the sweetness at the very front.

He didn't stop to rest, but directly picked up the spicy cup and continued to drink as he had done just now. Unexpectedly, the more he drank, the more he felt uncomfortable, until he could only drink it in one gulp. After drinking, the tears in his eyes had already dropped.

"It must be because the five elements are incomplete that it feels so terrible." Zheng Lei took the opportunity to say this to himself while he was taking a breath of fresh air. He then picked up the cup and quickly drank the whole thing.

After gulping down all five cups of water, Zheng Lei felt as if a ball had grown out of his stomach. This ball even rotated slightly.

This turn of events only caused Zheng Lei to lose consciousness.

After a moment of dizziness, Zheng Lei clutched his stomach that was still in pain and said, "Damn it!" Could it be that being pregnant in October also felt that way? Isn't this too painful? I still have a ball in my stomach. "

After resting for a while, the painful feeling of dizziness gradually subsided. Zheng Lei held his stomach as he looked at the five cups and thought to himself, "Just now, it was in accordance with the order of the five elements. So painful.

After making up his mind, Zheng Lei once again poured himself five cups of water. He first picked up the sweet taste cup and slowly drank it down, then picked up the cup and took a deep breath. He closed his mouth and gulped down the whole cup.

When the last bit was left, Zheng Lei took the courage to try the taste.

A smile of success appeared on Zheng Lei's face. His eyes brimmed with excitement as he said, "Just as I expected. The five elements are the way to go."

This time, he had confidence in himself, so he did not hold back his anger anymore. He directly opened his mouth to drink, and even deliberately slowed down his speed.

Sure enough, a bitter taste came from the back of Zheng Lei's tongue. He didn't stop to drink his water.

After slowly drinking it, Zheng Lei smacked his lips and said with a smile, "It's not bad. It tastes just like coffee!"

If anyone else were to hear such stinky words, they would definitely drown Zheng Lei to death. Not long ago, Zheng Lei was provoked by the taste of the bitter taste cup's water until he started retching.

Using the logic of the five elements to counter each other, Zheng Lei slowly drank five cups of water. When the last cup was placed down, Zheng Lei let out a long sigh and said, "Ah! How uncultured! How terrifying!"

If Zheng Lei didn't know that the five elements were mutually exclusive, if he didn't know that the five elements were related to each other, then he could only endure more and more pain, feeling worse than ever as he drank the water in this pot.

Just as he relaxed and hadn't finished changing his breath, he suddenly felt something wrong in his stomach.

Pickup: He sent his wife the red today and didn't update in time. Pickup is here to apologize to everyone! "(u) pu.
