Chapter 57: Transformation
"It's so spicy, it's so spicy, it's like drinking a glass of high-strength rum, and it's about to burn from your throat to your stomach. Lady Elena sizzled in the cold air as she began to eat again.
This time, I learned to be obedient, I only dared to bite in small bites, and from time to time I took a sip of cold boiled water, and in the end, my beautiful eyes narrowed into a line, and there was a strange light flashing inside.
She actually felt that the magic power in her body was about to move, and her vitality had obviously increased a lot, this was by no means an illusion, she was already infinitely close to the control level, and she had meticulous control over her body and every power in her body.
In an instant, she understood the value contained in it, at least it was a real help for her to further control the power of the spell, "What is this?
"It's made from grinding chili fruit, brought back by a boy army who came back from the Swamp of Despair, and the current yield is average, but it is enough for my mother to eat, and if you want to study it, you have to wait three years, and then you can have as much as you want. ”
Sean threw a small packet of red powder to Ms. Elena, "When used as a seasoning agent, you can put some in the soup before cooking, don't put too much, otherwise it will numb your tongue and greatly reduce your perception of other flavors." ”
This is the closest thing Sean has ever seen in this world to chili peppers, but instead of vegetables, fruits, grown on trees.
The finished product resembles a large green walnut, but what can be eaten is not the core, that thing is bitter and numb, a little, it can make a person's sense of taste invalid for two or three days, as for the possibility of entering the medicine, we have to wait for research to know, and now they are all treated as seeds, treasures and collected.
Even the skin can't be eaten directly, the taste is very intoxicating, and whoever eats it knows.
Anyway, Sean didn't want to taste it a second time, as for dishes such as fried chili peppers, he pondered on it, and grinding it into flour after drying it is the most correct way to eat it so far.
As for the effect after pickling, it is necessary to wait for the spicy fruit tree planted by himself to reach adulthood and have sufficient raw materials, as for organizing a large-scale manpower to go to the Desperate Swamp to pick, this thought Sean did not even move, otherwise it would not be a spicy fruit to eat, but human flesh and human blood.
Sean was an authentic northerner in his previous life, in his life, chili peppers are dispensable, you can eat some if you have them, you don't want to, but her daughter-in-law is an authentic southerner, or a Sichuan spicy girl, no spicy or happy, she has the power to eat all the guys, so she can only follow the spicy food, and you can get used to it while eating.
Sean drew attention to similar ingredients, not purely satisfying his appetite, but reminding him of the blood vessels irritating effect of chili peppers, which is the source of magical power.
The hard work paid off, and I really found similar ingredients, the capsaicin content is comparable to the top chili pepper in the previous life, and the effect is also unexpected, and I can clearly feel the stimulation of capsaicin to blood and blood vessels.
As for whether it can play a role in strengthening blood vessels through this stimulation, it remains to be studied, and Sean is not ready to do this work himself, and hand it over to Ms. Elena, who is more experienced and has a strong scientific research spirit.
Perhaps he has a stronger ability to control the body and is more sensitive to the changes caused by capsaicin in the body, and his love for spicy has increased significantly in this life.
As for the foodies who are staring at him, they are directly ignored by Sean, there is nothing they don't like to eat, in their mouths, chili fruit powder is just a simple condiment, and the quantity is not extravagant to this extent.
"It's going to take three more years!" Ms. Elena was disappointed, once Sean spoke, she basically couldn't run, so she could only wait honestly for three years, her eyes turned and she spread her hands, "Take it." ”
"What for?"
"Don't tell me you didn't have any personal work, give it all to me, I have another use. ”
"That's all. ”
"That's all? Even the old lady dares to deceive, bring it to me, you are now in a period of rapid growth, you don't need to rely on this external force, you want to use it, and after three years, bring it all to me." ”
"You always leave something to satisfy your cravings!"
"Satisfy your cravings, you are embarrassed to say it, the tyrannical things, and they can't be left in your hands, take them all. ”
"This time it's really gone. ”
"Really?"
"Not really. ”
"Just trust you once. "Ms. Elena is like a female bandit, robbing Sean of the private work reserved, Sean wants to cry without tears, this is a typical treasure sacrifice does not become a pit.
Lady Elena rolled her eyes, "No, I almost fooled you, Ralph, I think you kid is the most cunning, and you want to run away after eating and wipe your mouth, tell me what you think." ”
Ralph, who was unsuccessful, said shamelessly: "Madame misunderstood, I don't think Madame likes this kind of spicy fruit powder, go to those bastard boys, they may still have private work in their hands, they have to come out, and the province will be ruined in their hands." ”
"Less gags, what Sean likes, they still have a private job!" Lady Elena glared at Ralph viciously, "You kid haven't seen you for a few years, and you haven't seen anything else grow, but the level of whiskers and horses has been greatly improved, and if you continue to develop, sooner or later you will become a treacherous face, if you bring Shaun badly, be careful that I will kill you directly." ”
"It's still unknown who will lead whom, when it comes to whiskers and horses, I'm at most an entry-level person, and your son is the real grandmaster-level, and I didn't see a variant of fruit and coaxed your old man to almost can't find the north. ”
Ralph complained wildly in his heart, but he did not dare to show the slightest trace on his face, and it was pure death to speak ill of her son in front of an unreasonable mother who guarded calves.
Ralph showed a brilliant face-changing stunt, and his face was about to drip juice, "I don't have much talent in this area, I'm suitable for running errands, and by the way, I will ask for some news that passers-by know." ”
"Oh, when did you become so modest, the Bastille city map has become a well-known news to passers-by! Ms. Elena shook her fist and said, "If you give me these gimmicks again, believe it or not, your mother won't recognize you." ”
"If my wife was still alive, she wouldn't have recognized me a long time ago!"
"What?"
"Nothing, nothing. ”
Ralph's smile was as flattering as he could.
"I certainly can't provide much help in the overall situation, but I am still good at those things that steal chickens and dogs, and recently I have selected the right people in the Cadet Army and the reserve to form an intelligence department, which is specifically responsible for the collection and transmission of intelligence. ”
"A little clever. In contrast to Marshall's long talk, Ms. Elena was intrigued by Ralph's ingenious ideas, "Tell me about the specific ideas. ”
"This is not my idea, but it was inspired by Don. ”
Ralph, who was praised, not only did not have the slightest color, but his face was full of distress.
"It's just that there are too few suitable people, six or seven thousand, and so far I have only selected a dozen that I like, and if you want to do well, you can't do without financial support. ”
"That's because your heart is too big and you want to go to the sky in one step. ”
Sean answered with a smile.
"The vision is also a little high, you can't expect everyone to be like you, unknowingly get out the defense map of a castle, natural intelligence personnel are scarce resources after all, and self-cultivation is the regular way, as far as our current situation is concerned, it is too far to talk about intelligence organizations, there are more than a dozen people, first put up the shelf, and then cooperate with the outpost to be enough in a short time, and don't just stare at the youth army and the youth army reserve, the attached engineer side may have good seedlings. ”
"The guys who broke their backbones?"
Ralph did not show obvious contempt, but the contempt was self-evident.
This mentality is not serious when the number of young soldiers is relatively small, after all, the number of young soldiers is too small, and if you want to do things, you must rely on other people.
However, with the increase in the number of the Cadet Army, and the large number of Cadet Army reserves they brought, the relationship is far from being harmonious, after all, there is a huge difference in the concepts of the two sides, in the eyes of the Cadet Army, they are equal to stupidity, and every time they are called, it takes a lot of effort to train them, and it is far from being as easy as the Cadet Army Reserves who have been trained since childhood.
Sean's brow furrowed into a pimple, he had already sensed this sign of this within the Boy Army, and was trying to correct this distorted thought, but he didn't expect it to become so serious.
As one of the core figures of the Boy Army, Ralph had such a thought, how bad the situation must be outside, Sean stopped what he was doing, and said very seriously.
"Don't underestimate anyone, those who once came from humble backgrounds do not mean that they will be humble all their lives; being stupid now does not mean that they will not be smart in the future; and being downtrodden now does not mean that they will be down forever. ”
"There may be one of them who is better suited to the job than you, but you haven't given him a chance. If you want to do great things, you must have the mind to do great things, no matter what race, what background, what knowledge the other party is, as long as they are willing to join our group, they are all their own people, and we must treat everyone equally. ”
"Do you really expect the so-called Cadet Army and the Cadet Army Reserve to succeed? How many of them can add up? 10,000, 20,000, 30,000?"
"Even if there are 100,000, according to one mile, can they spread the Andis Mountain? What a joke, you still want to do great things all day long, and you don't even have the slightest mind to accommodate people, even if you occupy the mountain as the king, at best, you are a group of grass-headed cowards, and you will flutter in your own one-acre and three-point land, and you can't become a dragon in the rainy world. ”
"From now on, I don't want to hear the word "Cadet Army" anymore, so I will all be mixed and reorganized, and the military positions will be determined and called by the title of regular army. ”
Originally, it was just an ordinary school examination, but with Sean's heavy words, the nature completely changed, and the adaptation of the Boy Army was put on the agenda.
Ms. Elena was not in the slightest displeasure with this, and she was so obscene that she beat the side drum for her son and poured cold water on it, although she did not ask Sean directly.
But judging from Marshall and Ralph's answers, they looked at the problem quite rationally, and were not carried away by the notion of victory and the young man's bravery, although their ideas did not fully represent Sean's, but as the closest people around him, many things must affect each other.
As for McGee the Skullcrusher, she had been completely ignored by Lady Elena, and she had no expectation of hearing a satisfactory answer from him.
