XVIII. Boiling and review

The wooden chopsticks are long, and the half of them immersed in the pot are shiny with oil, and at the end is a thin hairy belly.

More than a dozen chili peppers float in it, lining the soup base with a bright red, which makes people salivate.

Jiang Xiaoyu, Jiang Lu and Zang Tianhao sat opposite each other across the swirling steam, and they were now in a hot pot restaurant called "Tianxia Lao".

Speaking of this "world fishing", it is known as "nothing in the world can not be fished", and even the bodies of monsters and sea beasts can be used as ingredients by them, hence the name.

Ordinary people can't afford to spend here, Jiang Xiaoyu also heard Zang Tianhao say that whatever she eats, she decided to come here, and she came for the first time. However, after reading the menu, she found that in fact, if you only order ordinary ingredients, the per capita consumption is not high.

What really raises the level of consumption is those precious ingredients taken from monsters and sea beasts that are not ordinary just by hearing the name, in addition to the three major hot pot types she must order (hairy belly, goose intestines, and potatoes), she also wants to order these to taste.

But when she saw the dizzying array of figures at the bottom, she gave up on the plan.

Although Zang Tianhao said that she should kill him as a wronged leader, she couldn't really do it. There is a difference between intimacy and intimacy, if it is her brother Jianglu who has a treat, she will not hesitate to point to the durian and the waiter and say, except for this, everything else will be served. But Zang Tianhao's words, she can't.

"Whew-"

Dip this hairy belly into the sauce that has been carefully blended by yourself, and then put it in your mouth, and the rich taste of the sauce will explode on the tip of your tongue in an instant, followed by a crispy texture that belongs to the hairy belly.

Jiang Xiaoyu closed his eyes, chewed carefully, and savored the beauty of this piece of food, and was willing to swallow it for a while.

Compared with her, the men were much more cheerful, first sweeping the plate to simmer the beef and mutton into the pot, and then with a bang, the bottle cap was easily pried open by their thumbs, and the waiter on call stared at him.

The rice-stalk-colored beer slowly engulfs the walls of the cup, the bubbles rise, and the thick foam accumulates on the top layer, and the two lips are close to the rim of the cup, sucking it away, and then gently clinking glasses above the hot pot.

"Come, Jiang Lu, it's not easy for you to go on a business trip this time, as a big brother, I toast you. โ€

After finishing speaking, Zang Tianhao directly raised his glass and drank it all, his throat rolling.

Seeing that Jiang Lu had also drunk the wine in the glass, a hearty smile appeared on his face, picked up the wine bottle, and filled the empty glasses of the two again.

Jiang Xiaoyu didn't drink, took a small sip of sour plum juice, and kept his eyes on the pot while drinking.

She was indifferent to the two men who took away all the beef and mutton in the pot, she was not interested in meat, she only loved the hairy belly, duck intestines, duck blood and other animal offal, and ordered a full seven plates, and the waiter on the side watched her clear seven plates like a vacuum cleaner, almost stunned, he had seen a lot of girls with big appetites, but like Jiang Xiaoyu, staring at animal offal to eat, and eating so much, it was really rare.

The three of them ate for nearly an hour and a half.

In the end, the cup was in disarray, the two men were lying on their backs in the booth with their stomachs covered, and Jiang Xiaoyu learned that the nail art she had made an appointment was finally lined up for her, so she left first. Go straight home after getting your nail perfect. Jiang Lu and she don't live together, Jiang Lu moved out of his parents' house many years ago and rented a house outside by himself.

"You just said that he might be the apprentice of those people in the north?" Jiang Lu asked with a frown, with a burp full of peppercorns.

Due to Zang Tianhao's request in advance, the second half of the hot pot was all told by Jiang Xiaoyu about the situation of Qi Qi, so the focus of the conversation between the three of them unconsciously deviated to the situation of Qi Qi.

"It doesn't have to be an apprentice. Zang Tianhao replied, "Maybe I just learned something." โ€

"So......" Jiang Lu raised his gaze to look at Zang Tianhao in the opposite seat, "You don't plan to deal with him again?"

"Hmm. Zang Tianhao pondered for three seconds and said, "Regardless of whether he has anything to do with those people in the north or not, I thought about it carefully, this is a family matter of the Guo family after all, and I, as an outsider, intervene rashly, and it is not comfortable to offend either party." I was impulsive before. It's a little scary to think about it now. โ€

"It's best if you think so. Jiang Lu agreed, "Actually, I wanted to say before, if you just want to be a businessman and make money from the martial arts hall, don't think about interfering in politics." You must know that capital cannot tame power. โ€

Zang Tianhao looked at him suspiciously: "This kind of words don't seem to come out of your mouth. โ€

"I listened to the brainwashing of others a lot in prison, and after listening to it a lot, I naturally remembered something. Jiang Lu explained lightly.

Zang Tianhao smiled: "It seems that this prison disaster, to you, also means a bit of a blessing in disguise." โ€

"It's good inside. Jiang Lu also chuckled, "It's all talents, each with their own obsessions, you know, ordinary people have obsessions, it's dangerous enough." Not to mention the psykers. Speaking of which, if some of the guys in it were released, it is estimated that the entire Pingjiang would be turned upside down by them, and I don't know how they were arrested in the first place. โ€

Zang Tianhao hesitated and said, "If you don't know, then at least it must be an old guy from fifty or sixty years ago." โ€

"Almost. Jiang Lu bowed slightly, "Being old and not dying is a thief, these people are veritable old thieves!"

"Then again. Zang Tianhao changed the subject, "What are you going to do in the next half a year?"

Jiang Lu patted his forehead: "Here it is again, big brother, it was all old from many years ago." Look at me!" Pointing to the scar on his face, "What other woman would be like me?"

"I think it's very attractive. โ€

"Don't blow it!" Jiang Lu waved his hand angrily, "Even if I make some money, I don't want to do it anymore." I'm so tired! I'm going to stay at home for half a year, and I'm going to be a dead house. โ€

"That's not your character. โ€

"Otherwise, what else do you want me to do?" Jiang Lu rolled his eyes, "I can't use the spirit text, not even the identity of the psyker, you also know, Pingjiang is peaceful on the surface, but secretly it is very chaotic, I can't show my head outside, in case I am targeted by the previous enemies, I can't beat them, I'm afraid that they are deliberately trying to force me to make a move, so that the gang that secretly spies on me will arrest me again." I don't have that way. โ€

"That's right. Zang Tianhao nodded, "Then you can stay at home these days, call me if you need anything, and I will send someone to send it to you." โ€

Jiang Lu snorted.

In front of them, the soup in the pot gradually stopped boiling because of the addition of new soup.

Just like Pingjiang at this time, no one knows when the next boiling will come.

Guo Qi returned to the Kuang family manor.

Guo Miaoli is still not at home tonight, she has not been back for nearly three weeks, I don't know what important thing the second uncle has given her, it will take so long.

But it's not just her tonight, Guo Qiqi's parents Guo Longjin and Zhao Yunxiao, and his brother Guo Tingqi are not at home.

According to the servant, they were invited to a dinner party, which used to be accompanied by Guo Qiqi, but now it has become Guo Tingqi, and a discerning person can know at a glance that Guo Longjin wants to push his eldest son to the position of the representative of the third generation of the Guan family, and weaken the huge influence left by Guo Qiqi as much as possible.

Guo Longjin's move, combined with the rumors and rumors that circulated before, further confirmed the fact that Guo Qiqi was deposed as an abandoned son of the Guo family.

In this regard, Guo Qi Qi knew that his father Guo Longjin's move was to make him understand, hoping that he could become the shadow of Guo Tingqi.

For the matter of becoming his brother's shadow, Qi Qi has no objection, what he really doesn't want to accept is that the family easily negates his previous efforts just because of the results of the spiritual text test, what he wants to fight is the family's outdated concept, and what he wants to fight is the fate that God has arranged for him, that's all.

After taking a bowl of soup and paying for dinner, he went back to his room.

That night, he did nothing, but lay in bed with his eyes closed. It's not sleeping, but reviewing the nearly 80 or so competitions I've watched today.

As we all know, the second son of the Kuang family has the ability to remember. However, if you don't forget these four words, you will lose your real effectiveness if you say too much.

What does it mean to be unforgettable?

Looking at a line of words and writing it down, it is also called unforgettable.

If it's a movie instead, can you repeat it without landing a line?

In the true sense of the word, he is only one step away from hyperamnesia.

People with hyperamnesia do not have the ability to forget, and can remember what they have experienced clearly, down to any detail. And he has the ability to forget, but when he wants to write down a thing, a picture, a sound or even a taste, he can't forget.

Sometimes, he is scared by himself, he feels that he is not a human being, but more like a machine.

For example, now, the images of more than 70 martial arts competitions appeared in his mind like video files, and he clicked on one of them, like watching a movie, pressed play and pause, and was even able to slow it down to frame by frame.

Delete the boring and boring games, and then keep the ones that are too high for the time being, and in the end, there are only a dozen games left that are suitable for his current level to learn from. What he's doing is a summing up. Can a normal person do this?

Some people say that it is a good idea to go out behind closed doors, but for Guo Qiqi, this sentence is not entirely true.

Absorb the strengths of others and learn from them, discarding the mistakes that most people make, and the goal now is to keep himself in a state of impermeability in his combat thinking as much as possible.

It's just that in order to reach this state, he needs to collect more information.

In addition to that, he needs to practice a little more. Sometimes, the brain learns that it is not uncommon for the body to not keep up, and he has to let his body keep up with the mind.
