Chapter 54: Blood Rice
"A few guest officers, come to dinner, please. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info "As soon as Mo Zaiti and the others entered the Mingyue Building, they immediately greeted the shopkeeper in a neat and clean moon-white shirt with a smile on his face.
Under the greeting of the shopkeeper, several people found a table and sat down very smoothly, and then the little two wiped the table enthusiastically, and poured tea for each person, before smiling again and said, "A few guest officers, I don't know what to eat, the shop has a complete variety of dishes, and you are satisfied." ”
"First give everyone a bowl of blood rice, a few side dishes for dinner, and finally a bear's paw stewed snake soup." Mo Zaiti, who was in the main position, tapped the fingers of his right hand rhythmically on the tabletop and said with a smile.
"This guest officer, you are really a connoisseur." As soon as the shopkeeper heard the dishes that Mo Ti ordered, he immediately gave a thumbs up and praised, and then said with a sad face, "But the blood rice in the small shop is divided into three bowls, small bowls, medium bowls and large bowls, each with a different price, and I also asked the guest to make it clear that I want the blood rice in the bowl." ”
"Oh, that's it, what is the price of those three bowls, you can tell me first." Hearing this, Mo Zaiti asked with some curiosity.
"Don't dare to deceive the guest officer, the small bowl is one hundred taels, the medium bowl is one hundred and fifty taels, and the large bowl is two hundred taels, and the weight of blood rice is naturally different from each other in this bowl." The shopkeeper explained with a smile on his face.
"My good girl, I knew that thing was expensive, I didn't expect it to be so expensive." As soon as the shopkeeper's words fell, Mo Zaiti hadn't spoken, and the anxious Tie Xiaosan was already a little surprised.
As soon as Tie Xiaosan's words came out, he immediately regretted it, and he just hoped that everyone didn't hear it, but although his voice was small, the people sitting there were not ordinary people, they were all deaf and clear-sighted warriors, so how could they not hear it.
It's just that the words were heard, but the reactions of the people sitting were different, and when they heard Tie Xiaosan's words, Tie Liang immediately stopped looking at him; Mo Zai touched his beard and smiled faintly; As for Tie Huo and the other three teenagers, they originally wanted to echo Tie Xiaosan, but when they saw that Mo Shi and Tie Liang didn't speak, they naturally didn't dare to speak, so they had to lower their heads and stare at the desktop.
And the shopkeeper on the side did not have the slightest disdain on his face, still with a smile on his face, his eyes looked at Mo Zaiti, and waited patiently for his decision, obviously he knew who was the real God of Wealth.
"I see, let's serve three large bowls and three small bowls." Mo Zaiti glanced at the people on the table, and then said.
"Okay, the meal will be coming soon, please stay here." The shopkeeper shook the towel in his hand, shouted in a long voice, and then left on his own to prepare.
"It's really a big store, and the service attitude of the second child in this store is so comfortable." As soon as the shopkeeper left, Tie Xiaosan, who had been talking a lot, immediately returned to his eyebrows and spoke.
"Why, Xiao Er is more enthusiastic, and you can't find the north." Tie Liang on the side quipped.
"Look at what you said, didn't I just sigh with emotion, this store is really different." Tie Xiaosan argued, his eyes began to look around, looking at everything in the hall with appreciation.
At this time, it was noon, it belonged to lunch time, the tables in the hall were very empty, and people in all kinds of clothes were sitting, pushing cups to the lamp, and the wine was boiling, so it was not lively.
"But Brother Tie Liang, seriously, what is that blood rice, it's so ridiculously expensive, a hundred taels of silver is in a small bowl?" Tie Huo asked curiously.
"Okay, since it's almost time to eat, I won't sell it, I'll tell you." Tie Liang looked at the other party's eager look, and immediately laughed, and then said, "Actually, this blood rice is rice cooked from blood rice, and the only feature is that eating it can increase people's strength and replenish qi and nourish the spirit, that's it." ”
"Increase people's strength, how to grow, is this blood rice still the same as the effect of the pill?" Although Tie Liang said it simply, Tie Huo heard something unusual from it and continued to ask.
"Yes, eating this meal is the same as taking pills, but if you eat too much pills, you will have erysipelas left in your body, but this meal is different, no matter how much you eat, it will not be harmful to your body, and it can increase your strength. Generally speaking, people who eat it for the first time should increase their strength by a few catties. Tie Liang said with a smile.
"Ah, really, if that's the case, then isn't this blood rice against the sky, if a person eats it all the time, then how much strength should he have." Tie Huo's face was surprised, he couldn't believe that the blood rice was so magical, and he imagined it in his mind.
"What you said is too exaggerated, although blood rice has the effect of increasing qi, it is not endless, it has a limit, and it is useless if you eat too much." Before Tie Liang could speak, Tie Xiaosan had already explained with a smile.
"Then where did this blood rice come from, since it is rice, can we grow it in our village?" Iron Fire asked.
"Are you coming or am I coming?" This time, Tie Liang didn't rush to explain, but looked at Tie Xiaosan with a smile on his face.
"You come, you come, I only know a little bit about this, and I really can't say it." Tie Xiaosan smiled embarrassedly.
"Well, let me tell you, Tiehuo, this blood rice, has a sweet taste and a warm temperament, it is said that it can only grow in a place where it is eight hundred to a thousand zhang high, and the sun must be sufficient, and then there must be something else to grow. In addition, its yield is very low, only one-tenth of ordinary rice, it is difficult to plant, generally only the sect or dynasty has this time, financial resources and strength to plant, the general small gang does not even think about it. The fundamental reason is that this blood rice has so many benefits, not only can it be eaten by itself, but it can also be used to sell, such a good thing, how can ordinary forces get their hands on it, and the slightest carelessness will lead to the disaster of killing. Tie Liang explained slowly.
"I know, I know, Brother Tie Liang wants to say that the husband is not guilty, and he is guilty." Iron Fire Road.
"Yo, I can't see it, you know if it's so reasonable, it seems that there are a lot of books in the Martial Arts Pavilion." Tie Liang said with a smile.
"Haha, Brother Tie Liang is laughing at me, I can't bear to read those humanistic travelogues, this is what I heard the third brother say, doesn't he always have such a sentence on his lips, if you hear more, you will know." Iron Fire explained.
"I see, I didn't see it, junior, you are so knowledgeable." Tie Liang looked at Tie Xiaosan with a smile on his face.
"Hey, I said you...
"Here's the food."
Before Tie Xiaosan finished speaking, the long voice of the shopkeeper had already sounded in his ears, and then, Mo Zaiti and the others saw him holding a wooden square tray with one hand, on which were still steaming meals, and in the passage formed between the tables, like a swimming fish, his body swayed from side to side.
"A few guest officers, please use it slowly, just say hello if you have anything, and the small ones will be on board." After the shopkeeper finished serving, he said with a smile on his face, and then left straight to serve others.
"Wow, this blood rice is really as red as blood, third brother, look at it, every grain of rice is so crystal clear, if you look closely, you can still see the blood in it, it's amazing." Tie Huo stared intently at the blood rice in front of him, and said with a look of surprise.
"Okay, don't make such a fuss, you see everyone else is watching you." Tie Xiaosan said, and then his elbow hit Tie Huo slightly, motioning for his eyes to look around.
Tie Huo looked around, and sure enough, the eyes of several tables of guests nearby were cast towards him, and almost everyone had a smile on their faces, just with a disdainful look, people knew at a glance that the smile did not mean friendship, and suddenly their eyes became complicated, and their faces were a little stiff.
"Okay, stop chatting, the meal is already served, let's eat quickly, you all have something to do later." Don't mention it again, and by the way, he lifted the siege for the iron fire.
Hearing this, everyone immediately shut up and didn't dare to say any more, picked up the bowl, picked up the chopsticks and began to destroy the food in front of them.
Tie Xuan took a bite of the blood rice in the bowl, and the blood rice melted in his mouth, and he didn't need to chew it at all. When the blood rice went down to his stomach, he immediately felt a hot breath rise from his lower abdomen, and then this qi dispersed into his limbs and bones, and his spirit couldn't help but lift, and the whole person seemed to have inexhaustible strength.
"This, this meal..." Tie Xuan's eyes widened, and he couldn't help but open his mouth wide and make a sound. Although Tie Liang had just explained the magic of this blood rice to Tie Huo, he had never eaten it after all and only felt that it sounded very profound, but at this moment, he completely felt the benefits of blood rice, which was really a good thing.
Not only him, but Tie Huo and Tie Chen, who were also eating blood rice for the first time, also had the same surprised expressions as him, and on the other hand, don't mention the three adults, because they have already eaten them, and their faces are full of enjoyment and take it for granted at this time.
"Don't be in a daze, eat it quickly, this blood rice should be eaten while it is hot to be good for your body." Seeing that Tie Xuan was still a little stunned, Tie Liang reminded with a smile.
"Oh." Tie Xuan responded, and then began to gulp down the rice, and the iron fire and iron dust on the side were not to be outdone, stirring the chopsticks as hard, as if they were afraid that they would not be able to eat it again if it was too late.
Seeing such a scene, Tie Xiaosan and Tie Han both smiled knowingly, why weren't they so anxious when they ate blood rice for the first time.
Only Mo Zai mentioned it, looking at Tie Xuan with complicated eyes, his expression suddenly became a little gloomy and gloomy, but he was silent all the time, not knowing what he was thinking in his heart.
