Zhang Chulan brought over some food and sat down with the Six-Eared Macaque at an empty table near the corner. The macaque didn't stand on ceremony, picking up a spicy rabbit head and nibbling on it with relish.
"The taste is not bad." Zhang Chulan picked up a rabbit head with his chopsticks, instead of tearing into it directly, he took a small bite to feel the aftereffects of ingesting it before he began eating with gusto.
After all, he had previously only eaten a small piece of beef jerky and felt his body undergo a transformation, worried that eating the food here would stir the Qi in his body.
Now, he discovered that it didn't...
He guessed that the beef jerky might have been a product of Sun Wukong's mount, hence its profound effect.
Or perhaps, his body could already adapt to the food here.
"You sure are eating slowly, like a little girl," commented the Six-Eared Macaque after finishing off the rabbit head, stuffing the bones into its mouth, crushing and swallowing them.
