"I don't want to fish in the river all day."

Anduin blurted out a sentence that made everyone around him unclear, but Arthas slowly got up, showed a noble posture, and smiled slightly: "This must be the famous traveling scholar Zhou Zhuo, Master Zhou, right?" I wanted to see you with my own eyes, but I heard that the master has been traveling in the south, and he has never been able to get what he wants, so I didn't expect to see you here in Anduin. ”

The round panda man has a cute appearance...... Wait, it should be dignified! Dressed in a solemn dress of red and yellow, and holding an old scroll in his hand, he gently saluted Arthas: "During my travels, I had the privilege of traveling with the illustrious Miss Gianna for a while, and she was full of praise for the character of the Prince of Arthas, and said that she would like to see you again when there is a chance. ”

Hearing this, Arthas's eyes lit up, and the smile on his face was even worse, so he wanted to welcome Zhou Zhuo to the main table and inquire about Gianna's affairs, at this time, the old fox Marin spoke: "Prince Arthas, we understand your kindness, but the main table is full, it's not good to add more seats, just add a table here, Anduin, what do you think?" ”

Catching a glimpse of the old fox's shrewd eyes, how could Anduin not know this guy's plans? He was afraid that Zhou Zhuo would sit at the main table, and if he was affected by something, it would be unfavorable for him to act "against his will". However, Anduin is not afraid of this little Jiujiu in Ma Lin's heart, what kind of person Zhou Zhuo is, he knows better than anyone else, not to mention that today's hot pot can be said to be in the middle, of course, there are differences are inevitable, but just looking at the appearance and honest appearance of the panda people, it should not be "in the same stream" as Ma Lin.

"I'm okay with that!"

With a wave of his hand, Anduin set up the tables and chairs and delivered the food, Marin sat down and looked at it, the corners of his mouth were hooked, and he smiled proudly in his heart: "This little fox has a lot of ability, but he can't open a shop, how can he eat raw meat and lettuce for guests?" ”

Little White, who sat down at the end, was also a little strange, and whispered, "How are you going to eat these things?" Is it to smear these things? Well, it smells pretty good, Master Zhou Zhuo, do you know? ”

Zhou Zhuo didn't respond immediately, but picked up the two wooden sticks, his eyes flashing: "This is chopsticks?" ”

"What's that?"

"Chopsticks!"

Zhou Zhuo was very surprised, although his palms were chubby, but the chopsticks were extremely flexible, he was dazzled by Xiao White, and couldn't help but try it himself, but found that it was extremely difficult, no matter what, it could not reach half of Zhou Zhuo's level, You Scholar looked around and found that there were chopsticks on every table, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "It's really strange, I actually saw the chopsticks from my hometown here!" ”

Marin picked up the wooden stick and looked suspicious: "It's just two sticks, it's just a coincidence, right?" ”

"No, no, no!" Panda man Zhou Zhuo denied repeatedly, "It's not just two wooden sticks that can be called chopsticks, the most significant difference is that chopsticks are round and square, in our culture, the circle symbolizes the sky, the square symbolizes the earth, and it happens to correspond to the heaven and the round place, which is our panda people's original understanding of the principles of the world, and the rules handed down in ancient times!" ”

"That's true!"

White looked at the chopsticks, and was surprised to find that it was really as Zhou Zhuo said, the old fox raised one side of his eyebrows, and caught a glimpse of Anduin who got up to speak, and said in a deep voice to the panda man: "Master Zhou, you haven't forgotten our agreement, have you?" ”

Zhou Zhuo played with chopsticks with joy and replied casually: "Of course I haven't forgotten, you asked me to come here to appreciate the food, didn't I come with you?" Then again, looking at the food, I seem to have seen a similar scene in my hometown, but it seems that something is missing! ”

“…… In order to celebrate everyone's arrival, and to reward the outstanding contributions of Masif, Varui and others, today I specially invite you to eat hot pot ......"

Anduin's voice suddenly came, and Zhou Zhuo suddenly brightened: "Yes! It's hot pot! However, it is a little different from the hot pot in my hometown, we put the ingredients in the pot in advance, cook them until they are half-cooked, and then the family gathers around the fire, chatting and eating meat and drinking soup. ”

Seeing his hopeful look, Ma Lin couldn't help but sink his mind, and suddenly realized that the victory was not yet in his hands, and hurriedly said, "Master Zhou, we are friends, right?" ”

Zhou Zhuo, who turned his head to study sesame sauce and sesame oil, nodded lightly without raising his head.

"If you're a friend, you should be in trouble, right?"

As soon as the panda man nodded, he immediately found that a group of waiters had brought a steaming hot pot, and immediately asked the curious boy: "Smart little White, I think your little brain melon should have figured out how to eat hot pot!" ”

Little White hugged his head and responded gently, but his expression was a little puzzled: "Master Zhou's hometown hot pot is cooked to half-cooked in advance, but here is Count Anduin, but it has not been processed in advance, will it take a long time?" ”

"Of course not!" Zhou Zhuo picked up a light slice of meat with chopsticks, "The hot pot in my hometown uses large pieces of ingredients, and you have to cook it for a long time if you want to cook it thoroughly, but the food on the table is different, haven't you found their common characteristics?" ”

At this moment, the waiter put down the hot pot, and without waiting for Anduin to explain the method, he directly sent the meat slices into the hot pot, and immediately showed a sure affirmation: "This Earl Anduin is really a genius in the food industry, he can think of such an ingenious way to eat, you see, this is not a while, the meat slices have been cooked, but I don't know how it tastes?" ”

"Definitely not good!"

Ma Lin hugged his arms and made a firm judgment on his own, but Zhou Zhuo found that Little White was biting his lip, so he smiled and sent the meat slices into his dishes, encouraging: "Just ask Little White to try it for us!" ”

The little boy nodded heavily, picked up the chopsticks a little awkwardly, and then used the most primitive friction to finally eat the meat slices, and suddenly opened his eyes, revealing a look of surprise, and just wanted to speak, the townspeople next to him gave the answer.

"I've always heard people say that hot pot is not only novel, but also delicious, it turns out that this is what it looks like!"

"Look, the Prince of Arthas can't help but nod his head again and again!"

"Earl Anduin is so powerful, he can invent such delicious things, no wonder he transformed his manor into a Hearthstone inn!"

At this time, Ma Lin knew that he had fallen on the set, and watched Zhou Zhuo eagerly prepare to try it, and involuntarily pressed the other party's bear paw: "Master Zhou, this is a major matter of human life!" If you can make me win, I can completely get rid of the demonic seed in my body, but if I lose, I will lose my freedom forever! Food is precious, life is more valuable, if it is for freedom, both can be thrown! Master Zhou, you can't see death without saving! ”

The panda man quietly tore away Marin, quietly ate the slices of meat, closed his eyes quietly and said, "This is the taste of hometown......

"Yo! Old fox, why don't you start moving? It doesn't mean that this hot pot is not qualified, right? ”

Anduin came with his head held high: "I have to make it clear in advance, the uninvited customers are ten gold coins per person, and they are all vying for it without a counteroffer!" Master Zhou Zhuo, as the most discerning food critic in the world, what do you think of this hot pot? ”

"Not good!"

Marin hurriedly said, but the panda man sighed with great satisfaction: "I can feel the breath of home in a foreign country, Count Anduin, I don't know how to express my gratitude!" ”

"Haha! Master Zhou praised it falsely! Anduin looked at Marin and smiled victoriously, "Old fox, what else do you have to say?" ”

"I'm against it!"

"The objection is invalid."

Ma Lin was ready to resist to the end: "Master Zhou is just emotionally infected, it doesn't mean that the hot pot is delicious!" ”

"But ......," said Little White on the side, timidly, "the hot pot is really delicious!" ”

Seeing the old fox's eyebrows cold, the boy said aggrievedly: "Mr. Marin, you can eat and see by yourself......"

Catching a glimpse of Anduin's provocative expression, Marin snorted coldly, took a bite with a straight face, and after a long time, his cold face was suddenly replaced by flattery: "Count Anduin, I have something to say, what about this matter, I didn't think about it at the beginning......"

"Yo Yo Yo, the famous explorer Mr. Marin, are you ready to turn your face and deny it?"

Marin raised his hand: "No! Definitely not! I just feel like my life shouldn't end in Stormwind......"

"The next sentence is not." Anduin suddenly interrupted, "My journey is the sea of stars? ”

"Haha......"

The old fox laughed dryly a few times and begged, "The environment in Stormwind Town is good, I think this place is suitable for retirement." ”

"Then congratulations to Mr. Marin for entering the old age ahead of schedule!"

"Count Anduin, you can't be so ruthless, how can you bear to see an eagle soaring in the sky, reduced to a grass chicken in a low cage?"

"I'm sorry, I'm so hard-hearted!" Anduin's heart did not let go, "Well, if Mr. Marin agrees to my request, this matter will still be discussed!" ”

The old fox was surprised: "Say it quickly!" Whether it is on the knife mountain or under the sea of fire, I will agree! ”

"And what about going to the main island of the north?"

"Hmm...... I'd better go up the knife mountain and down the sea of fire......"
