Chapter 443: Branch Lines (4)

"According to the history of South America on Earth, it should not be difficult to conquer these natives." I pretended to be skillful following Leo's instructions, picked up the lettuce leaves on a plate next to me, and prepared to put them in the soup pot to cook.

"Wait a minute!" Zhao Ritian suddenly stopped me, his eyes were a little strange, and even, a little disdainful......

"Is it revealing again?" My heart tightened.

"To be honest, some of our ancestors' habits are not very good......," Zhao Ritian whispered in Huaxia, "Do you know how many Western foreigners dislike us eating with chopsticks, saying that this is feeding each other saliva?" ”

I couldn't figure out if he was seeing through me or something else......

Leo said, "That's it!" This is what a fifty-year-old man should do! ”

I don't feel like I was seen through by Zhao Ritian, but by Leo......

Zhao Ritian continued: "In fact, many Chinese people have realized it and started to use chopsticks to avoid pollution...... I know you may not understand it, but let's be a little careful! ”

As he spoke, he picked up a pair of chopsticks parked on the side of the plate, put a few vegetable leaves into the pot, and then put the chopsticks back and said, "That's good......

I was a little depressed and put the leaves I was holding on my chopsticks into the leftover bucket at the bottom of the table.

"Well, perfect marks for the performance." Leo said.

"Trick me again!" I was a little depressed.

"He's more convinced that you're a fifty-year-old man." Leo said.

I think about it, my chopsticks will inevitably get saliva in my mouth, and if I put the vegetables in the pot, the soup in the pot will be "polluted", which is indeed a bit inappropriate.

We usually eat and have our own plates, whether it is staple food or side dishes, they are divided and placed on our own plates, and this indirect "saliva" will not occur during dinner.

However, sometimes, this phenomenon of "eating saliva" is also an honor, such as at major celebrations, everyone eats a piece of barbecue together and takes turns to drink a glass of wine, which is an act of expressing closeness and acceptance, especially when the elders hand food or wine glasses to the juniors, which is a kind of love and recognition.

However, eating hot pot like this does make people a little, uncomfortable.

I picked up the so-called "chopsticks" and sandwiched two more pieces of meat and put them in the pot.

Zhao Ritian said: "Don't you mind ......"

I said, "I understand, there are some things that really need to change, like my mentality. ”

Zhao Ritian said: "If you don't like to fight and kill, you can help me do food promotion when the time comes, and conquer the other world can also start with food culture!" By the way, you have worked in the unit all your life, and it shouldn't be difficult to write a plan or something, so you can help me make one when the time comes, and you can just hand it over to your subordinates. ”

I said, "I'll do my best, and even if I find a way to go back, I'll help you explain things clearly." ”

Zhao Ritian smiled: "Well, we are all cultural people, and we are reliable in doing things!" ”

I asked directly, "By the way, do you have paper?" I'll draw you martial arts moves. ”

Zhao Ritian waved his hand as if he didn't care very much: "Don't worry, I only have animal skin paper here, and our Chinese papermaking skills can only be used when they reach the human realm." ”

"Enough of the vellum paper," I said, "are all well-known martial arts, and there is nothing mysterious about them." ”

Speaking of this, Zhao Ritian naturally understood what I meant, and said, "By the way, tonight, Gillette and Glass worked hard to send this lady of the Wind Speed Hand out of the city. ”

"Oh?" Weasel Shadowless Gillette was munching on a chicken meatball, and suddenly paused, then said, "Meaningless! ”

Kobold Ash Wood Staff Glass looked at Gillian and said, "Well, the female werewolf is just right, if it's a man, I'm afraid it won't be able to get by." ”

As soon as Gillian heard about herself, she became nervous again.

"Don't be restrained, just like a family, Bihong Bloodhammer's friends are our friends," Zhao Ritian picked up a fork and handed it to her, "The dishes are all here, take whatever you like, eat it when it's cooked, it's hot." ”

Gillian grabbed the fork and asked, "How are we going to get out of the city?" ”

"I can only go down the sewer," Mr. Zhao said, "Well, don't talk about this when you eat...... By the way, if it feels hot, there's ice water over there......"

"Ice water! How did I not think of that? Leo said, "Since you have elemental energy, it's easy to create life-type magic, so let's go to the human side and test the magic refrigerator!" ”

"Say it as if you can enjoy it......" I said.

At the other end of the table, away from the stove, there was a large kettle, indicating that a fine layer of water had condensed on it, like dew on the tiles in the morning, and it seemed that the water in it was indeed cold.

Leo couldn't taste it, though.

Jabas the Camel Man walked over and poured himself a glass and asked me, "Brother Bloodhammer, Lady Wind Hand, would you like a drink?" ”

"No," I said, following Leo's prompt, "it's not good for your stomach to drink ice water after eating this." ”

Gillian refused.

Zhao Ritian smiled and said, "What are you afraid of?" It's not in your hometown, you're so young and strong now, you don't need to nourish your stomach......"

"It's a habit." I say.

Leo said, "It's better if you can't eat it!" Alas, I almost forgot that I was playing an old man......"

"It's the result of you lying to me in the first place." I say.

"A lie often needs more lies to make up for it, and eventually it will be exposed...... Leo said, "but it won't take long to act, I support you now, and kill this kid after I get the treasure of Minotaurs!" ”

"Just for such a lie about age, you can make up your mind to kill him?" I said, "That's too far-fetched." ”

"Maybe he will return to Earth and be reincarnated after he dies?" Leo quibbled, "Wouldn't that just go back in time?" ”

"Then why didn't you die in the first place?" I say.

"It's not that I haven't thought about it...... Leo is a little cheeky, "don't talk about this yet, it's delicious!" ”

I saw that he didn't want to quarrel on this issue, so I brought up the topic again.

"By the way, I've always wanted to ask, why didn't Gauss come with you?" I asked.

The atmosphere was awkward again.

Actually, I asked this question as soon as I sat down just now, which caught the five rangers a little off guard, but Zhao Ritian pretended not to hear.

Now, he couldn't pretend he didn't hear.

"You're a little unauthentic......" Leo smirked, "it's the cooperation period, not to mention that you still have to ask for help." ”

"I don't mean anything else." I say.

"I saw him in the audience yesterday ......," said Zhao Ritian, "and it seems that he has been getting close to his own people recently, and he is ready to form an adventurous team." ”

"It's a pity, we're more sure with him, aren't we?" I say.

"Everyone has their own ambitions...... Zhao Ritian said.

"Yes," I said, "I thought you didn't take him......"

"We are people with ideals, not thugs," Mr. Zhao said, "and there are so many examples of failures in history textbooks, and we have to learn from them, don't we?" If the entrepreneurial team is well led, it is Liu Bang, Zhu Yuanzhang, and if it is not good, it is Chen Sheng, Wu Guang, Huang Chao, and Li Zicheng......"

To be honest, not to mention that Gillian, a newcomer to the stranger, couldn't understand our conversation, I guess the five rangers couldn't understand it.

But this doesn't affect our conversation, anyway, Gillian is going to leave tonight, the Five Rangers are Zhao Ritian's partners on the surface, but in fact they are just subordinates, and I, I am a collaborator of the same weight as Zhao Ritian, this contrast of identity, I just pointed it out, and I didn't intend to say it too clearly.

At least, Gauss did not choose to follow Zhao Ritian, in a sense, he was already one level higher than the Five Rangers.

This is the end of this topic, and I will not delve into it.

Anyway, Leo also has this meaning, which is to remind the five of them that their current identities have changed, and they will no longer be able to get along as equals when they meet in the future.

If they are unaware, the witchcraft potion they have ingested will also "alert" them in time.

From the bottom of my heart, I really don't like their behavior of giving in to gain strength, and at the same time, I appreciate Gauss even more.

Dinner continued, to be honest, I was also quite interested in this way of eating hot pot, although I was disgusted by Zhao Ritian, but that also went to Leo......

The most important thing in hot pot is the soup, which Leo said is called "pot bottom", which is more appropriate.

There should be a lot of spices at the bottom of the pot itself, plus some ingredients suitable for long-term boiling, such as bones and dry and hard vegetarian dishes, the more you cook, the more flavorful it is, and at the same time, the food that everyone puts in to cook adds flavor to the bottom of the pot, and the more it accumulates, the taste is naturally getting better and better......

However, thinking of Zhao Ritian's old habit of saying "eating saliva", I also suspect that in the past, Chinese people would really use chopsticks that had been in their mouths to pick up raw ingredients and cook them, which felt uncomfortable......

Fortunately, listening to the tone of the two of them, it's just that the old people in China have such a habit, and the younger generation, under the influence of "Westerners", uses clean "chopsticks", which is also an improvement.

This is just like Leo himself said - the Chinese people and the earthlings have the courage to change some of the cognitions and habits that were once bad.

I'm starting to worry that if I'm going to the temple to celebrate my achievements after finishing in the top 10 of the tournament, will the Lord of Ron or the new king or high priest also hand me the food and wine I've drunk...... I used to think it was an honor, but now that I think about it, it's a bit unappetizing! Especially when I think about the recovery festival in the village......

Alas, my mind was really changed little by little by these two guys from Earth...... I want to chat with more like-minded people about "{?$article_title?} ", WeChat pays attention to "excellent reading literature", chatting about life, looking for confidants~
