I asked you to save the villain, not to take him as your wife!

A poetry gathering naturally requires pens, ink, paper, and inkstone, as well as talented men and beautiful women.

At the same time, because it was held in a restaurant, food and wine could be found everywhere.

Ever since Wen Qi entered the restaurant, his eyes have never left the food.

After a long while, Wen Qi slowly withdrew his gaze and asked the system in his mind: "System, is there no chili in this world?"

All the food he had just seen, whether fried, stewed, or steamed, was, without exception, as light as water.

"Yes, host." The system answered quickly.

Wen Qi: “…”

Doesn't this cost his life?

Wen Qi doesn't care much about food, but he can't live without chili peppers.

Food without spiciness is tasteless to him.

The system didn’t say that I would have to endure this kind of suffering while completing the mission!

In this regard, the system also wants to say, didn’t the host ask this?

Wen Qi was stunned for a moment and decided to look for the system.

"System, please give me some chili peppers. I can't survive without them." Wen Qi said this very seriously.

"Host, please don't make things difficult for me. What should I do?" The entire system was dumbfounded. It was actually a waste.

"I don't believe it. You've brought a living person like me here, but you can't get some chili?" Wen Qi expressed his disbelief.

And he really meant it.

Even if it's salted fish, you will starve to death if you don't eat.

What?

What do you think is the relationship between eating and chili peppers?

A companion relationship.

It is really indispensable.

The system was stunned.

It is not the host's body that enters the mission world, but only his soul.

The soul is just an invisible energy body.

But chili peppers are real.

It may not have the ability to carry entities.

"System?" Seeing that the system had been silent for a long time, Wen Qi couldn't help but urge it.

At this moment, the system's forehead was also covered with cold sweat.

The system can sense that this new host has some rebelliousness in him.

If it didn't bring him the chili, he might actually go on strike.

The system couldn't help but start running rapidly. It absolutely couldn't just watch Wen Qi go on strike.

Soon, the system really thought of something.

"Host, although there are no chili peppers in this world, there are dogwoods." The system said quickly.

Cornus officinalis?

He does know this stuff.

I saw it when I was reading a book.

It is said to have the function of removing odor from food and has a spicy taste.

But some people say that it actually tastes sour.

Wen Qi pondered the question without saying anything, and the system quickly said: "Of course, host, if you really want peppers, it's not that there are none, but you need to go out to sea."

Wen Qi, who had been thinking about what dogwood tasted like, suddenly became interested.

"Where?" Wen Qi narrowed his eyes slightly and asked in his mind.

"It's on an island. You just need to sail out to the northeast of Dayuan and it will take more than a month to get there." The system said hurriedly.

"Is there a map?" Wen Qi asked again.

"Yes." said the system.

"Have some."

"it is good."

After a simple exchange of two sentences, a map appeared in Wen Qi's mind.

"Host, in order to make it easier for you to find the location, you can expand and shrink the map at will. In addition, a navigation function has been added." The system introduced.

It feels that there may be some conflict between it and the ancient mission world.

Its first monitoring function was developed in an ancient mission world.

The current maps and navigation modes were forced out in the ancient mission world.

I just hope that there won’t be any more weird things happening in the next ancient mission world.

Wen Qi didn't know what the system was thinking.

Looking at the map in his mind, Wen Qi was very satisfied.

Although the system in his mind was not as useful as he thought, it was not completely useless.

After this test, Wen Qi came to the conclusion that this was also a donkey that could be used as a carrot.

Thinking of this, Wen Qi raised the corner of his mouth.

Wen Qi raised his legs and found a place to sit down, leisurely watching the people coming and going at the poetry reading, waiting for Wei Ji to come to him.

Although he has no hope of becoming emperor, he is still a prince and should have some value in Wei Ji's eyes.

Moreover, such an opportunity that comes so close is rare, and he believes that Wei Ji will not miss such a good opportunity.

However, Wen Qi miscalculated.

He waited and waited, but Wei Ji never showed up. Instead, his butt was sore from sitting.

Wen Qi was not in a hurry, but he was a little curious.

I'm curious why Wei Ji didn't take such an opportunity?

Through the system's monitoring screen, Wei Ji was communicating with the talented scholars, and he definitely didn't seem to want to get close to him.

Wen Qi felt strange, but if Wei Ji didn't come, he had no interest in continuing to sit there.

He had never been interested in poetry meetings in the first place, and now he just wanted to go back home and lie down.

At this moment, Wei Ji felt extremely regretful.

Although Wen Qi has no chance of becoming emperor, being on good terms with him can also enhance his value.

But the glance between him and the person upstairs and downstairs was still too fresh in his memory.

Wei Ji could certainly go and bet that Wen Qi didn’t have such a deep impression of him.

But what if?

When working as a spy in a foreign country, one must be extremely cautious.

This opportunity is indeed rare, but there will always be next time.

After waiting for another quarter of an hour and making sure that Wei Ji would not come to see him, Wen Qi could no longer sit still.

He had already seen several people looking in his direction several times, as if they were about to come up and talk to him.

He came here for Wei Ji, not for these insignificant people.

Thinking about the trouble of communicating with others, Wen Qi quickly stood up, patted his butt and left.

The followers following him were a little confused and always felt that their master was acting strangely today.

But when I think about it carefully, it seems that my master in the past was not that normal.

So today's master is also normal.

Wen Qi's departure naturally attracted a lot of people's attention.

Among them is Wei Ji.

Seeing Wen Qi leaving, Wei Ji's expression remained unchanged.

It’s okay, there will be next chance.

Wen Qi thought so too.

If you don’t take the bait this time, then next time.

He couldn't bear to let go of Wei Ji, such a talent.

Besides, it would be better to keep the mission target under your nose.

If it really doesn't work, he can also let his third brother discover the problem of the spies in advance and close the city gate in advance.

Wen Qi believed that with the advancement of the plot, there would happen to be only one antidote left by then.

Then he, Wei Ji's savior, would be in place and could still get the result he wanted.

In fact, there is a simpler way.

That is Wen Qi took the initiative to recruit Wei Ji.

This would certainly make Wei Ji alert, but he would most likely not refuse.

After all, he was assigned by the new emperor of Chu to be a spy for the Yuan Dynasty, and he couldn't just give up.

But, it's not a good deal if you're the one who's chasing after it.

It would be interesting to let Wei Ji approach him on his own initiative!
