Volume 1 Chapter 99 Daze is also a realm
Chapter Ninety-Nine: Daze is also a realm
The weeds by the lake grow very dense and very high, the wind blows softly across the lake, the weeds sway slightly, and there is a bit of wind blowing grass and seeing the smell of cattle and sheep.
With An Feng's loud action of pushing the bullet to load, the person in the grass snorted, it was a woman's voice. But An Feng did not let his guard down, he shouted coldly: "I count to three ......"
The woman in the grass answered: "Don't shoot, I'll come out right away." β
didn't let An Feng wait long, the person in the grass came out, it was actually Mrs. Helen, there was a drop of sweat hanging on the tip of her upturned nose, her hand was on her waist, a little shy, a little embarrassed to get out of the grass, and muttered: "I didn't expect there to be someone here." β
An Feng's gaze turned on the other party's hands placed on his waist, and Mrs. Helen's face turned even redder, she avoided An Feng's gaze and explained, "I just came here......"
It turned out that the other party was hiding in the grass to urinate. No wonder the voices in the grass are so lewd and so sneaky.
An Feng slowly put away the gun, shook his head self-deprecatingly, and greeted: "Mrs. Helen, you are taking a walk, the weather is really good today, haha." β
Mrs. Helen turned her eyes on An Feng's pistol and replied calmly: "Yes, since I hired Argyle, it is true that as you said, I have been much more relaxed, so I want to take a walk around, walk and walk, and come here unconsciously......"
For the gun in An Feng's hand, Mrs. Helen did not show much surprise. Nearly 30 million gun licenses have been issued in the United States, and the number of guns owned by households is higher than the number of private cars owned in the country. Therefore, when Lao Mei sees a gun, at most he is like a domestic person seeing a private car, and he is surprised that "he actually has it". And the residents of Atlantic Town are even more familiar with guns.
Mrs. Helen also had several guns in her own home, and she also carried with her husband the women's self-defense pistol that her husband had left her, the Deringer twin-shot small revolver. So she could understand the sound of the pistol being loaded, and she didn't stand up at the first time just now because she needed ...... Lift your pants.
Mrs. Helen didn't dress up today, she was wearing denim cargo pants, a knitted sweater on her upper body, and a short pea-green windbreaker on the outside, this windbreaker was just close to the color of the grass, An Feng happened to be in a state of complete relaxation, and many reasons were put together, so that An Feng didn't notice her approach.
The breeze on the lake blew Mrs. Haininglun's long hair, Mrs. Helen standing in the grass gave people a flowing feeling, An Feng sitting on the recliner by the lake had a lazy posture, and in the walkman, Tiduo was still singing lazily. Mrs. Helen spoke, the atmosphere was slightly embarrassing, and for a while the two of them didn't know how to round the scene, until An Feng was the first to show it, and he greeted heartily: "Madame wants to eat barbecue."
The only way to avoid embarrassment is to talk, whatever you want. Helen hurriedly put her hands on the trench coat draped on her shoulders and responded with a smile: "Okay, what is there to eat...... Oh, what's your catch? β
An Feng replied with movements, as soon as he returned his hand, the fishing rod that had been fluttering on the water for a long time swooped into the air, and at the top of the fishing rod, a foot-long trout jumped wildly, An Feng's wrist flicked, and the hook was thrown in front of him, he reached out and picked it up, and the lively fish was firmly in the palm of his hand.
Lady Helen's eyes widened, and she asked in surprise, "This, you want to eat this fish?" β
This fish, of course, can't be eaten.
In the thirties and forties, when the United States developed industry, many waters were polluted, and then the U.S. government issued a law prohibiting the sale and consumption of freshwater fish, which has not been repealed to this day. After 70 or 80 years of treatment, although the water in most waters of the United States has become clear, the fish in the water are still not edible, because the chemicals have settled into the water and soil, and the mercury levels in most fish are still exceeded.
An Feng took out a ruler and measured it, this fish is not big, it can't break the fishing record, of course, there is no need to take photos to keep evidence, and An Feng doesn't want to take pictures. He casually recorded the length and weight of the fish, then threw the fish into the lake, put the bait back on and set up the rod, he clapped his hands, glanced at the barbecue grill behind him, and replied, "I brought venison and veal...... I've also brought a bottle of King Arthur's whiskey, can you bring some?
After that, An Feng twisted the wine bottle and poured a small glass of whiskey for Mrs. Helen, who obediently took the wine glass, and after licking it, she immediately stuck out her tongue again and again: "It's too spicy, I like it more...... Maguey. β
She is making an excuse to leave, but how can An Feng let her out of the palm of her hand. Before, time was tight, and An Feng only had time to persuade the other party with words to let the other party accept his investment, but now it is difficult to get together, there is no one around, and the grass is lonely, which is a good opportunity to win over corrosion.
"Agave?" An Feng smiled slightly, walked to the back of the Hummer without saying a word, lifted the back cover, and revealed the wine cabinet inside, as well as the food storage cabinet. There were more than 30 kinds of wine in the wine cabinet, and his fingers were flicking like playing a piano, and he suddenly pointed to a few of the bottles and said happily: "Here...... There's Mexican Sunrise, Margarita, Socha, Tequila Ancho ......, and it's good, we have four bottles of agave. β
Carrying four bottles of wine office back to the barbecue grill, this time An Feng came a little barbecue items by the way, he stuffed the wine office to Mrs. Helen, found a stone to support the board, and skillfully began to wear barbecue skewers, while not forgetting to raise his hand, signaling Mrs. Helen to drink as much as she wanted, and greeted her warmly
"Lady Helen, you know what? There are more than thirty flavors of barbecue, the most common being Brazilian barbecue, Turkish barbecue, Korean barbecue, and British barbecue. Turkish barbecue is made purely with cumin with chili peppers, salt...... Of course, in an authentic Turkish barbecue, the meat is often mixed with spices such as egg whites, onions, cumin, etc., and macerated overnight to make the meat tender......
Korean barbecue is all about the sauce, and similarly, the meat needs to be macerated to bring out the sauce flavor...... Brazilian barbecue, the meat should be coated with honey, preferably Brazilian honey, and the oil should be brushed several times during the barbecue, so it will be burned with a sweet smell and attractive golden color...... The English barbecue is made with cheese or cream cheese, which is grilled with the aroma of cheese and milk, as well as the sweetness......
In addition to these types of barbecue, there is also Thai barbecue β tomato sauce plays the leading role, mainly used to roast fruits. Indian barbecue, full of curry flavour......"
An Feng was very fast, and during the introduction, he had quickly put on several meat skewers, and when Mrs. Helen saw this, she quickly drank the cup of King Arthur and rushed over to help. As a result, An Feng's words are more colorful, and of course, they are even more mouth-watering.
After a pause, An Feng poured himself a glass of King Arthur and raised his glass to signal the bottles of wine. Lady Helen said she liked agave, but that was just a statement. After the embarrassment of the first meeting, she wanted to continue her walk, alone and immersed in memories and remembrance. She wanted to go, she wanted to say goodbye. Holding King Arthur, she didn't want to drink it, and eagerly she thought of tequila, remembered that the shop had never entered tequila, so she took out this wine as a shirk, as long as An Feng apologized, she could use this as an excuse to leave...... But what she didn't expect was that An Feng was like a robot cat, she could take out anything she wanted.
In the past, it was helpless to help An Feng wear barbecue skewers, but as An Feng's words became more and more interesting, Helen felt that it was idle anyway, and it was not bad to spend the morning with such an interesting person. At An Feng's urging, she twisted open a bottle of tequila, and the two clinked glasses and continued to chat.
"What flavors do you like?" After introducing various classic barbecue methods, An Feng put the barbecue skewers on the charcoal stove and asked diligently.
Helen suddenly had a narrow thought, she found a cold barbecue method introduced by the other party just now, and responded: "Moroccan barbecue, just that, right?" I've never tasted Moroccan barbecue, you...... May I? β
An Feng choked and showed a slightly embarrassed expression: "Moroccan barbecue is mainly used to grill fish and shrimp, we don't have fish and shrimp here, if you insist...... This type of barbecue is very close to Spanish barbecue, maybe we can replace it with a Turkish barbecue. β
Lady Helen chuckled, "Kane, you let me choose in a tone that I should have, but how many spices did you bring with you?"
An Feng replied without shame: "Today's main barbecue meat, I brought Turkish barbecue seasonings." β
Mrs. Helen laughed brightly, and she took the initiative to raise the small wine office, and mocked: "Haha, Kane, you did bluff me just now. I mentioned tequila, you show me your extensive collection, and then you talk about the various ways to grill it, and then you confidently and calmly ask what flavors I like. If I'm a little timid, I'm afraid I'll think you've stored all kinds of spices in the car. β
When you swallow a mouthful of tequila, a sweet sensation wells up deep in your throat, and the sweetness lingers on the tip of your tongue and throat. Immediately, a warm feeling drifted through her body, and Helen knew that it was the tequila's unique magic effect at work. Raising her eyes to look over, she saw that every grass and tree around her was extraordinarily distinct, and the colors were extraordinarily comfortable, and when she looked at An Feng who was whispering on the other side, she suddenly felt that the other party was extremely kind.
An Feng handed over a skewer of barbecue, and when her fingers touched lightly, Helen felt a crispy torrent rushing from her fingertips to her whole body, and her eyes were dripping at this time, if An Feng was going further, she could also tolerate it. But An Feng didn't seem to pay attention to the ambiguity at this moment, he casually picked up another skewer of barbecue, raised his wine glass and invited him to drink.
There is no need to do anything more to Mrs. Helen, it is enough to leave her a good impression, because An Feng has already obtained what he wants.
Under the influence of tequila, ambiguity has been flowing between the two. It was indeed a wilderness, and the wine was drunk until the afternoon, and no one disturbed it. By the end of the afternoon, An Feng had eaten and drunk, and Mrs. Helen was completely drunk. She was nervously excited, giggling at the sight of everything. When she was carried home by An Feng, the neighbors around her house all looked at the pair with "I understand" eyes...... Dogs for men and women.
Regardless of this, An Feng put down Helen, and Shi Shiran returned home, he actually didn't drink much, but at the moment there was a slight scent. He didn't know what he was doing, so he suddenly slipped into Argyle's bedroom, leaned on the Gatling gun scope, and looked at the window of his landlord, Brian's house. Suddenly got up and went back to his bedroom, turned on the stereo wide, and swayed alone in the room.
Not having to think, just relying on instinct and impulse to do things, such a day is not bad, at least it is a kind of rest for the brain.
All kinds of boring attempts were done, An Feng was not sleepy, he brought a bottle of Don PΓ©rignon Champagne King to the terrace, and sat bored on the chair slowly sipping fine champagne.
In this season, the work in the farmland is basically finished, and the field after harvest is barren, and An Feng used a telescope to search for half a day in the endless field before finding ...... The figure of a woman -- it's Kelly. She rode a bicycle, threw a few textbooks in the sundries box in front of the car, and walked leisurely into the distance, gradually approaching An Feng's house.
An Feng didn't think about anything in his head, he watched in a daze as Kelly rode into the country road, turned to the door of An Feng's house, said hello to the landlord Brian, and then rode his bicycle around to the stable.
The bike stopped at the staircase of the stable, and Kelly didn't get out of it, she propped up the bike on one leg and smiled brightly at the balcony, saying hello, "Hi, Kane." What happened to your honors students? Henry chartered a disco and invited his classmates to a carnival swing; Mario rented more than a dozen DVDs, bought a lot of champagne, and recruited a dozen people to his house to watch the DVDs and drink binge. And Ellie, and the seniors in your class, who have swept through all the discotheques and bars in town, all of them crazy like the end of the world.
I didn't see you in all the parties, how did you hide here and drink quietly alone...... What's wrong with you guys? What happened? β
What happened, An Feng couldn't say. Everyone is partying, it's nothing more than the nerves are too tense to go to sleep, so everyone is looking for exhaustion.
He raised his hand to greet the other party: "Come on, I have good wine here, and there are countless good dishes in the refrigerator, so I just put it in the microwave and boil it, and come up and drink with me." β
Kelly was not polite, she threw the bicycle away, threw it on the grass in front of the door, and then ran upstairs with her textbook, saw the wine bottle at An Feng's feet, and shouted in surprise: "Don Pellignon Champagne King, one of the best champagnes, haha, I know that the students of your honor class are not bad for money, but I didn't expect you to be so quiet and inactive." β
Those classmates were different from An Feng, they were tired of playing and fell asleep, and slept for two days and two nights just in time for Dr. Natasha's surgery, while An Feng managed to maintain his best physical strength and adjust his physical strength to peak ......
Kelly poured herself a glass of champagne, took a big sip, and exclaimed, "Any lemons?" When I drink champagne, I like to add some lemon slices. β
An Feng raised his hand weakly and pointed in the direction of the kitchen. Kelly saw An Feng's lazy look, and thought of the strangeness of his classmate's appearance, so she was not polite. She burrowed into the kitchen and after a while let out a loud cry: "Ah, Sicilian lemon, I like it." Kane, you're extravagant, everything is the best here...... Wait, I'll cook a few dishes. β
What Kelly said about "cooking" actually doesn't require her to do much. An Feng bought all the bagged microwave food with good ingredients and tin foil, as long as he hit it in the microwave, in a few minutes, Kelly reappeared on the sundeck with four or five dishes. Putting down the food, she went into the kitchen again without saying a word, and when she reappeared, she had a basket of champagne in her hand, which was full of An Feng's treasures.
"I didn't expect you to like African food, your taste is so quirky, but I like to try. So I made braised lizard meat, lily garlic golden python meat, Isobia vegetable salad, gundos smoked fish β yes, that's what the label says. What else would you like to eat? I see there's still Australian fruit in the fridge, get you some...... Speak, don't use gestures, you're dumb? β
"The teacher is driving us crazy", An Feng said honestly: "I want to store my physical strength to deal with the teacher's madness." β
Kelly took another big sip of champagne, stroked her forehead and said, "It seems that no matter how good the wine is, you can't be greedy...... Tell me, what problems did your honors students encounter, and how did they collectively go crazy? β
An Feng pursed his lips silently, and raised his glass to invite: "Drink, come, take another big sip." β
Kelly glanced at An Feng charmingly: "I know, I know what's wrong." I was treated like this last year -- doesn't that mean you have something to do, but you can't say it, you have to keep it a secret. β
An Feng took a sip of wine with an expressionless face, and Kelly smiled: "Okay, I won't ask." I already know how. β
After taking a big sip of wine, Kelly said angrily, "This town is really weird, but what's even weirder is that you feel weird about it, and everyone is silent when you ask it." β
"Do you want to leave?" An Feng asked lazily.
"No, I don't want to leave yet. This town has low tuition, high scholarships, free meals, and a full academic freedom. I'm going to finish my undergraduate studies here and then go to other cities to find jobs. β
"Oh, then you're going to have to endure it for three more years...... Don't be so fast, I've already drunk one, for the sake of my reputation, I don't want to get drunk with another girl, two women a day, it's too obscene. β
Helen burst out laughing: "I don't know yet, you've drunk a lady, who is that person?" β
An Feng smiled but didn't answer, Kelly looked around for a while, and finally let go of the topic.
The meal was very relaxed, the two sat on the sundeck, drinking champagne leisurely, although Kelly opened two bottles of wine, but after all, the bottom line was maintained, and the interest was high, Argyle came home from work, and Kelly immediately got up and said goodbye.
Immediately after, An Feng spent the weekend in a coma, and at the beginning of the school year on Monday, he re-entered the campus and entered the fully enclosed laboratory of the Institute of Life Sciences, this time he was still the last to come, and it was not a robot that greeted him, it was Dr. Tom. He personally introduced An Feng into the first disinfection door, and the two were in the corridor, and Dr. Tom explained: "I have arranged for them to take turns in shifts, everyone's faces are covered in respirators, no one will pay attention to you, you, are you ready?" β
