Chapter Twenty-Seven: The Land of Hot Springs
Outside the window, the shadows of the trees on both sides of the mountain road are rapidly receding, from the yellow-brown boring Gobi Desert to the endless mountainous area, the eyes are full of green like emerald stones, which looks very eye-catching, and makes the passengers' mood a lot better.
In this day and age, taking interstate buses is not something everyone can afford, and the bus compartments are still half empty.
In the middle of the bus.
"Leo, are you thirsty, do you want to drink water?" A certain Du is trying to play the role of a good brother.
"Not yet, thank you." Lai is immersed in playing the studious brother of the school-seeking duo, nibbling on a tome of books.
"This book is so profound for a child like you! Besides, it's not good for the eyes. Duchamp closed the book, and on the cover was printed "The Principle of Conductive Force: C. Epstein."
In the second half of the Channeling Bus, Mr. Andrew Tybron was snoring as if no one was around, and without pretending to be on purpose, Centella had already covered her face with her hat. "What a shame!" She silently cursed in her heart that the bear next to her would never wake up.
About 2,000 sels southeast of the Dominion of Gatapunia is the famous spa town of Umir in the Northland, a charming town surrounded by forests and steaming all year round. Behind Yomir, hidden in the mountains are active volcanoes, which bring rich geothermal resources to the town and are known throughout the country. Even the royal family has a dedicated hot spring hotel here.
After Duchamp got off the bus, he gave way to look at his luggage and went to buy a transfer ticket himself.
Five minutes later, Du Shang came back with a few tickets: "I'll tell you a great news, only the day after tomorrow will have a shuttle." ”
Lu muttered puzzled, "What's the good news?" ”
Xian Leila rolled her eyes at the big man: "Isn't this good news?" This meant that we could go to the hot springs. ”
"Bingo." Duchamp snapped his fingers in satisfaction, "Before that, let's go for a big meal, and then visit the lord's palace or something, in short, we have to enjoy the vacation to the fullest." ”
"Why visit the Lord's Palace?"
"Because this is a necessary cultivation for nobles." Duchamp ignored the three pairs of sanitary balls behind his back, grabbed a passer-by and asked for the location of the lord's mansion.
Five minutes later, at the entrance of the Lord's Mansion in the center of the town.
Mr. Andrew Tybron clumsily clutched his top hat and solemnly observed the family crest hanging at the entrance of the Lord's Mansion: "This horse is very well drawn, with wings and two horns. Styry, are you just here to see this? ”
Duchamp took advantage of the fact that there was no one on the side of the road and asked Li En softly: "Are you familiar with this place?" Isn't it your home? ”
Li En shook his head and said, "No, our family is not like this!" ”
Duchamp was embarrassed, he didn't expect this to be the result at all. However, the player's manual clearly states that Dawn Schwarzer is the eldest son of Baron Schwarzer, Lord of Umir.
Yumir's lord's mansion was very simple, and the gate of the courtyard was closed at the moment. Duchamp had no choice but to step forward, and was about to knock on the door to ask the servant of the house, when he just raised his hand, and suddenly saw a person walking on the sidewalk. It was an old man, and his walking posture seemed ordinary, but for some reason, Duchamp felt a little frightened.
He subconsciously glanced at the minimap, damn it, the huge yellow dot on the minimap was bigger than a duck's egg.
Duchamp hurriedly rolled up the crowd and walked haphazardly towards the road on the side of the lord's palace, this time it was crooked, and along this road, the cloth banners with the sign of soup barrels were hung one after another.
Aralei Tyberon, dressed in men's clothes, tugged at Duchamp's sleeve.
Duchamp whispered, "I'll talk about it later." ”
"But!"
"Wait a minute!"
Walking all the way to a remote hot spring on this road, Duchamp saw that there was no bigger point in the minimap, so he was relieved.
Duchamp pretended to buy a ticket for the hot springs and motioned for Cinleira to follow.
"What were you going to say?"
"I just saw the man in white fighting with the man in black, and as we left, he was walking down the path next to him."
Duchamp's heart moved, could it be that rhubarb?
"So is he friend or foe? What are the intentions for Rien? ”
"I don't know! I just snuck a spill at the time. ”
The two looked at each other. Duchamp immediately decided to abandon Yumir's sightseeing plans and take refuge in this inn.
There are many famous hot spring inns in Umir, and the "White Wave Pavilion" selected by Duchamp is said to have been open for more than 100 years, and its location is quite secluded, which is exactly what Duchamp's group of people needs. The hot springs at Hakuhatei come in many different temperatures that can be rotated according to one's tolerance to stimulate the skin and promote blood circulation.
The owner of Baibotei, a lovely uncle with curly cauliflower hair, reminds everyone that because the hot spring water has risen a lot this year, you must be careful of burns. Duchamp inquired, it turned out that it was a volcanic eruption in the north some time ago, although it did not affect the safety of the town, but the water of the underground hot spring became hot, and it was not open for business for a while, and now although it is gradually getting colder, the temperature is still much higher than in previous years.
This doesn't seem to affect the people who are good at having fun, and Lu excitedly jumps from pool to pool, constantly challenging the higher heat.
The hottest pool is said to be as high as 85 degrees Celsius, and the eggs are lowered and become ripe eggs in a few minutes.
When Duchamp saw it, he suddenly remembered a small dish, and ran towards the kitchen of the inn in a hurry.
A few minutes later, a plate of home-cooked side dishes with iced flowers yellow and white was served.
"Come on, come on, let's try my brother's latest craft, crystal egg yolk tofu."
Crystal egg yolk tofu, original by Duchamp, can never be found in "Mainland Home Cooking Recipes".
First, put the eggs in the hot spring, blanch them quickly, peel them off, take only the yolk and cut it in half. Secondly, take out the semi-circle of the special delicious skin jelly, put the egg yolk in it, and again, take a plate, finely change the tender tofu with a knife, cut it into small cubes, and cover the bottom of the plate with a layer. At this time, it is time to test the magic power of the chef.
Minimize the power of Frost Breath, aim at the surface of the tofu on the plate, and sprinkle a layer of ice flowers. Then while the freezing ability of the ice flower is still there, put the jelly egg yolk into the shape. Finally, sprinkle a little salt, then sprinkle a little chopped green onion and clear soy sauce, and the taste is delicate and appetizing. In order for this product to become a successful dish, the biggest trick is to make the jelly, which must be elastic, crispy and refreshing.
Of course, readers on the planet know that in our meal, this dish is called "preserved egg tofu". When you soak in the hot springs, you can eat it several times more refreshing than usual.
"Ahhh Duchamp got his wish and received all kinds of delicious admiration from beauties and children.
Lu tasted it, and suddenly exclaimed: "I know, this layer on the outside of the egg yolk is a big bug......"
Duchamp covered his mouth and snatched the plate with his hand. There are beautiful women and children present, what kind of insects and brains are terrible scenery.
"Brother, have you eaten enough, I'll take it to others when you've eaten enough."
Lu nervously protected the food: "Why do you want to give it to others to eat, I can eat it all by myself." ”
Duchamp glared at him: "Good things have to be shared with others, do you understand this truth?" ”
When the twentieth person in the restaurant tasted this special cold dish, Duchamp finally heard a prompt: "The crystal egg yolk tofu you made has won the unanimous praise of everyone, and your progress in the task '99 Great Successful Dishes' is +1, and you will get 50 achievement points." ”
In the evening, everyone stayed at the "Hakuhatei". Relaxing in the hot springs during the day is more conducive to promoting sleep.
In the middle of the night, Duchamp heard the sound of a mobile phone alarm.
I don't have to go to class today, so why do I set an alarm? Duchamp thought depressedly. He closed his eyes and groped around the bed for a long time, and finally touched the mobile phone, and turned off the alarm of the mobile phone sleepily. Continue to sleep with your head covered.
It's still comfortable to sleep! Duchamp thought with relief. Suddenly, he remembered the second he had turned off his phone's alarm. Like, there is a feeling that it is not very comfortable!
The screen of the mobile phone is not lit, the touch of the mobile phone is quite rough, and the mobile phone is not round and does not slip away, and it seems to be in the shape of an alarm clock.
And his Apple 6th generation plus, the touch is quite delicate!
Am I holding an alarm clock or a phone? Duchamp was rather entangled.
Suddenly, Duchamp remembered that it was not a mobile phone, nor an alarm clock.
He was holding a tactical force guide tucked into his pillow.
What an Apple 6, he is now on the continent of Semria!
Duchamp woke up in an instant, he jumped to his feet and looked into the room.
Both Lu and Rien slept soundly. The bright starlight poured in, and it was a quiet night outside the window.
Well, I slept soundly!
Duchamp took two steps in front of the window and suddenly shouted: "The detection system is activated!" Enter Emergency Mode! ”
