As the saying goes, a down-and-out phoenix is not as good as a chicken.

At the point of downfall, this phoenix is in charge, it has been steamed, and it is naturally downcast, and it can't be down.

But it succeeds in overturning this proverb, because it fully demonstrates its value.

That is, even a down-and-out phoenix is far more popular than a chicken!

Under the wind and clouds of the three guys, the phoenix in the disk disappeared, and most of the birds still stood there silently, looking up at the empty space.

"Haha, happy!" Miki-sensei dropped his chopsticks, apparently having no interest in the birds.

"yes." Mr. Xing's face was slightly drunk, and he silently put down his chopsticks and picked up the wine glass.

"It's so full!" Mukong directly patted his belly and stood up.

The three gourmets all ignored the birds, and the only one who was still paying attention to the poor creatures was Rey himself.

"You, you're not eating?" Rey asked as he ate the bird with relish.

The bird's flesh was very tender, and the melt-in-your-mouth sensation intoxicated Rey. At first, Rey was a little resistant, but after the first sip, Rey couldn't stop.

"What to eat?" Mukong asked with an unhappy expression.

What to eat?

That's a really weird question.

"And so many ......," Rey gestured to the plate as many birds scattered across the jungle.

"How can you eat this?" The empty eyes understated the flock of birds.

"Why, why can't you eat it?" Rey snorted at the birds, "It's delicious." ”

"Huh." Sora smiled.

"Laughing at what?"

"Have you ever eaten braised sea cucumber with green onions?" Sora clearly wanted to give an example.

“…… No. Rey shook his head.

"What?" Sora's eyes widened, "No?" ”

"Yes."

"Okay." Sora continued to think.

This guy is so poor that he hasn't even eaten roasted sea cucumber with green onions.

But he used this ordinary home-cooked dish as an example because he knew that he was very poor, and he hadn't eaten anything else?

"Where's the chopped pepper fish head?" Sora asked cautiously.

"I haven't heard of it."

Haven't even heard of chopped pepper fish heads?

Then try to go down another notch, if you don't work again, you are really helpless.

"Beef stew with potatoes?" Sora asked through gritted teeth.

"Haha," Rey smiled, "I've eaten this." ”

"Okay." Meku pointed to the plate and said, "If this is the dish in front of you, will you eat the potatoes on the plate?" ”

"Yes." Rey said as a matter of course.

"Oh my God." Mukong scratched his few hairs in embarrassment.

"Any questions?"

"No, no problem." Mukong said slowly, "I'll also eat the potatoes inside, this example is not good." ”

"That's it, potatoes are so delicious, how can anyone not eat potatoes."

"Forget it," Sora gave up, "I really can't think of what to say." ”

"What the hell are you trying to say?"

"What he wants to say is very simple," Mr. Miki suddenly spoke, "If this dish of Hundred Birds and Phoenixes is compared to chopping pepper fish heads, then the phoenix we eat is naturally a fish head." ”

"Oh, I see." Rey put down his chopsticks, "If the phoenix is a fish head, then aren't these birds chopping peppers?" ”

"Yes." There was an evil smile on the corner of his mouth and he said, "It's chopped pepper!" ”

"But this chopped pepper is delicious." Rey said disapprehantly.

"That's, that's because you missed the Phoenix."

"Even so, you can't call it a chopped pepper fish head without this chopped pepper."

"You ......" was speechless.

"Haha, that's right." Teacher Miki spoke again, "The so-called chopped pepper fish head naturally has to have chopped peppers, and a hundred birds and a phoenix naturally have to have these birds." ”

Despite Miki-sensei's words, he still has little interest in these birds.

"Anyway," Meku concluded, "that's the condiment." ”

"Delicious condiment." Rey added.

"You, you kid is really brainless, how can anyone let the phoenix eat these birds."

"It's delicious."

It was delicious, and Rey picked up another one, and he couldn't stop it.

"Besides," Rey chewed with relish, "wouldn't it be a waste if you don't eat it?" ”

"Waste?" Mukong first smiled incomprehensibly, and then pointed to himself and said, "This son has money!" ”

"This," Rey said as he ate, "I already knew that. ”

"So, then you still eat?"

"Does this have anything to do with being rich?"

"Don't eat it." Eyes snatched Rey's chopsticks, "Of course it matters." ”

"Huh?" Rey stared blankly.

"Haha."

"Huh."

Miki-sensei and Mr. Yuki-san smiled in unison, and they neither spoke nor stopped, but looked at the sky with interest.

These two must have reached some kind of agreement!

Rey was even more sure.

"What does it matter?" Rey asked again.

"First of all," seeing everyone looking at him, he cleared his throat and made an opening remark, "I have money!" ”

"Here we go again." Rey muttered quietly.

"Secondly, it's me in for a treat!"

"So what?"

"So you don't hold on to the condiment!" His eyes were burning and he said, "What kind of system is this?" ”

"Huh?"

"This will seem that I am not atmospheric enough, if you don't have enough to eat, we can order it again at any time, even if you cook all the phoenixes in the Phoenix Selection, there is no problem!" "But you guy first put the main dish and didn't eat it, and when the main dish was finished, he hugged the corners and didn't talk about it, what does this make everyone think of me?" ”

"What do you think?" Rey still didn't get it?

"Doesn't that make me seem petty?" Muku shouted loudly, "I, what I have is money!" I'm most afraid that people will think I'm stingy! ”

"What?"

"Waiter !!" Sora almost yelled at the elevator.

"Haha."

"Huh."

Miki-sensei and Mr. Yuki laughed again, the two guys still neither spoke nor involuntarily, but their faces were full of happy expressions.

"You, you kid are going to eat people?" Rey was taken aback.

The small door of the elevator opened, and the handsome waiter appeared in front of everyone again with a professional smile.

"What do you command, sir?" The waiter said politely.

But when he saw the young waiter, he seemed even more unhappy.

"Order!" Muku shouted loudly.

"Yes sir," the waiter said as he pulled out a red quantum crystal, "This crystal contains all the dishes of this small shop, and even a phoenix can choose from this crystal." ”

"Very good, we want a phoenix!"

"Still, do you want it?" Rey muttered quietly.

If you eat again, Sun Mukong, this kid, will eat three meals in a row. I didn't expect this diminutive guy to eat so much.

"Absolutely." He said with a lot of pride, "Two teachers, the younger brother hasn't been fined three glasses of wine since he came late, I don't think it's better for one of us?" ”

Before the two successful middle-aged men could speak, the waiter on the side took the lead in speaking.

"One, one for each person?" The waiter was surprised.

"Yes." Sora shook his finger in front of the waiter's eyes, "One for each person!" ”

“…… Good. The waiter activated the red crystal, "Please choose." ”

At this moment, Rey noticed the waiter's strange expression flashing again.

He seemed to pout.

Even though he didn't say anything, and the expression disappeared in an instant, Rey seemed to hear him.

One for one person?

Are you a chicken?

Dirty money!

Upstart!

Dirt old hat!

Why don't you die!

Rey thought he had heard those words.

The quantum crystal was activated.

A hologram appears above the pyramid.

The plane trees are bathed in moonlight, and the phoenixes drag their long tail feathers to perch on the treetops.

"It's quiet." Mr. Xing said.

"Well, they're all resting." Miki-sensei added.

"Perhaps," Mr. Xing continued after a pause, "to lose his life in his sleep." ”

"Yes, life itself is impermanent."

The two "philosophers" fell silent slowly, and both leaned their necks motionlessly to admire the beautiful bird.

At this moment, Mukong shouted at the top of his voice, breaking the silence.

"I want this!" He shouted as he pointed to a sturdy-looking phoenix.

"Okay." The waiter said with a smile.

He silently took out a laser pointer and drew a circle on the hologram in the air.

Again!

Rey could clearly see the expression of dissatisfaction and disgust flash across the young waiter's handsome face.

"How many?" The waiter once again aimed his wide smile at the rest of the group.

"Haha," Miki smiled, "each one looks good, the old man's worst thing is choosing things, or you can help me choose them." ”

"What about this gentleman?" The waiter respectfully turned his gaze to Mr. Xing.

"Me too," said Mr. Xing, "feel free. ”

"So," the waiter looked at Rey, "what about you?" ”

"Ah......" Rey waved his hand, "I, I won't eat." ”

"Gotta eat!" Mu Empty was unhappy, "He's the same, you look at the choice." ”

"Okay." The waiter took a closer look, then silently took out a laser pointer and drew three circles in the air.

"The business of the small shop has been so good these days that there are not many surviving, about a dozen," the waiter said politely as he picked up the red crystals, "but don't worry, I can guarantee that these are the best of them." ”

"Haha, I'm tired." Miki said.

"Everyone, please wait, the food will come up in a moment." The waiter added at the moment of turning, "Do you have any other needs, gentlemen?" ”

"Wine." Mr. Xing said succinctly.

"Excuse me, what kind of wine do you need?"

"Old Baifen wine." Mr. Xing stretched out a hand, "Take five jars." ”

The waiter was visibly stunned for a moment, but he quickly regained his professional smile.

"Okay."

After saying that, the young waiter disappeared into the elevator.
