Chapter 18: A Trip to Manchester City
Zhao Yan couldn't believe his eyes, what was presented in front of him was actually the crazy scene of the old man eating and gnawing. The old man faced the transparent ball, and the bar counter under the ball was full of different kinds and colors of food. And while Zhao Yan was waiting for half an hour, the old man was fighting with these foods.
Zhao Yan's heart even rose up a conflict of wanting to scold his mother, he thought that this old man was a mentor anyway, and at the moment he was engrossed in staring at the transparent ball, he had been doing something big, not to mention a big thing, it was a serious matter!
But he was eating selflessly. Looking at those empty plates, in addition to wanting to scold the old man, Zhao Yan also secretly sighed that his appetite was amazing.
Zhao Yan forcibly suppressed his anger and asked very unpleasantly: "Oh bad old man! You told me to wait below just to wait for you to eat? Do you know? I'm here to find Gullist!
The old man didn't care about Zhao Yan's unreasonableness towards him, nor did he pay attention to Zhao Yan's question, and continued to pour the food on the remaining plate into his mouth.
Zhao Yan repeated: "Oh my God! I'm here to find Gulesqiu! Archmage Gulesqiu! Don't you understand? Don't you feel shocked?" Zhao Yan emphasized the four words Gulesqiu.
The old man finally reacted, glanced at Zhao Yan's face, and said casually: "What's there to be shocked? ”
Call!
Zhao Yan felt that this bad old man must be a guy who was compared to Gu Lesqiu, so when he saw others looking for Gu Lesiqiu, he had this attitude, and he was depressed and jealous. In this case, it is not interesting to talk to him more, so he forcibly suppressed his anger and asked, "Okay, even if there is nothing to shock about, let me ask you, is he here now?"
"No!" replied simply.
"And when is he usually there?"
"I don't know!" replied very dryly.
"That ......"
"I don't know!"
"Damn, why don't you know before I ask you?" Zhao Yan was furious.
"Hurry up, hurry up, don't prevent Lao Tzu from eating, today's delicious food makes Lao Tzu's mood okay, otherwise I would have kicked you out!"
Zhao Yan wanted to go up to theorize, and even wanted to beat the old man hard, but as soon as he took a step, he found that he had the ability to beat him. Don't really him off, just a fireball will cook it. Seeing that he is so greedy, it is possible to eat himself even if he is cooked and eaten.
In desperation, he had to rush out of the magic union in a rage, thinking that he would wait for it to come again.
The moment he closed the door, Zhao Yan glared at the old man fiercely, and scolded secretly: "Hmph! For the old disrespectful guy, when I follow Gu Lisqiu to learn the skills, I will repair you!"
scolded and scolded, but Zhao Yan found that his stomach was already growling with hunger.
Looking around the streets, I thought to myself that I would have to go down to the restaurant for the first time in Manchester City, and look at the old man's slander, is the food in this world really so delicious.
Looking up, I found a blue sign with a food pattern engraved on it, and ran into it happily.
After entering, Zhao Yan found that this was not only a hotel, but also a good business, and at a glance, there was only a place left in the corner. Without saying a word, he sat on his ass.
"Little Er, serve!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhao Yan secretly slapped himself in the mouth, why do you always use the language in martial arts dramas, and you haven't returned to ancient times, you really read too much of Jin Daxia's books.
But fortunately, the waiters in the museum immediately came over with a smile.
"Want something?"
Adversity......
This simple question did stop Zhao Yan, and he probably pretended to be thoughtful, secretly looked at the table next to him, and then said seriously: "This...... Recently, my stomach has not been very good, so I ...... Serve me at that table. ”
The waiter still had a smile on his face, nodded slightly to Zhao Yan, and then smiled: "Wait a minute, it will be fine immediately." ”
Seeing that the matter of ordering food was settled, Zhao Yan was extremely excited, but immediately a flash of inspiration flashed in his head, and he immediately realized a serious problem, and hurriedly shouted: "Wait!"
The waiter turned his head suspiciously, and said lightly, "What's wrong?"
"Doom...... This, you come here, get closer. Eun, that's all. Zhao Yan glanced around, and then asked softly, "How much does that table cost?"
The waiter glanced at the table and smiled, "It's not much, it's just 10 silver coins." ”
Suck!
Zhao Yan gasped, and the temperature of his whole body quickly dropped to freezing, only 10 silver coins, and I didn't even have a single silver coin on me! Don't look at the copper coins in my pocket, they only add up to a few hundred copper coins.
It seems that the goblin tribe is indeed too poor, and these hundreds of copper coins are all regarded as treasures.
The waiter saw Zhao Yan's expression and continued to ask, "Is there any problem?"
"Doom...... Haha, no problem, no problem, that's it...... My stomach seems to hurt terribly, forget it, forget it!"
Saying that, Zhao Yan got up generously and prepared to leave. There was a sneer from the waiter, "I don't have money to pretend to be an uncle, a beggar who can't even afford to eat, pretending to be." ”
Zhao Yan immediately stopped, turned around and glared at the waiter, "Who are you talking about!"
The waiter flattened his mouth, passed by Zhao Yan, and said lightly: "I didn't say anything about you, what are you excited about, I'm just talking about those pretending people." ”
The waiter didn't scold himself directly, and Zhao Yan couldn't say anything, at this time, many people in the hotel cast strange eyes at him, Zhao Yan felt embarrassed, and hurriedly rushed out of the hotel, thinking to himself****** how could he be bullied everywhere.
Suddenly, a strong sense of loss came to my heart, I was respected and loved in the world of goblins and dwarves, but I didn't expect that as soon as I stepped into the human place, it was all ridicule and contempt.
Syllable!
In the middle of wandering, I accidentally bumped into something.
"What are you doing, how do you walk?"
Only then did Zhao Yan realize that he had bumped into the goods picked by a man, and he immediately spilled them on the ground.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry!"
Seeing that it was his own fault, Zhao Yan didn't talk back, and hurriedly went up to help the man pick it on the ground. When he held this soft purple thing in his hand, Zhao Yan was surprised to find that this was actually an eggplant! It was almost the same as an eggplant on earth!
Zhao Yan hurriedly asked, "What is this? What is this? Can you eat it?"
The man looked at Zhao Yan like a monster and said, "This is an eggplant, of course you can eat it!"
Haha! It was the same as the name of the earth, and he hurriedly said, "How can this be sold?"
"20 copper coins apiece, if you want it, choose yourself. ”
"If you want it, of course I want it, bring me 10!" Zhao Yan thought to himself that he finally had something he could afford. After a pause, Zhao Yan said again: "I'll give you 300 copper coins, even if it's as compensation for knocking over your things!" and then held the eggplant that fell on the ground in his arms.
The man was stunned for a moment, took out a small bag of things from the bottom of the basket, and said lightly: "I don't want you to ask for money for nothing, I have some extra salt and condiments, give it to you." ”
Zhao Yan's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly took it and said thank you.
Looking around left and right, Zhao Yan finally found a dead end, and after observing for a while, no one passed by, so he put all the baggage eggplants on the ground and began to use the wood he found to make a fire.
Ecstatic to do the preparations, you must know that on the earth, your best dish is eggplant, for eggplant, countless of their own methods, are absolutely delicious. Now there is salt and some unknown condiments, plus some uneaten water rhinoceros meat in the baggage. It's hard to eat a full meal if it's not beautiful now, haha!
After more than half an hour of cooking demonstration, although the conditions are harsh and inconvenient, there is still a strong aroma from the roasted eggplant and water rhino meat.
Zhao Yan swallowed his saliva fiercely, and couldn't wait to eat it.
Burst!
With a soft sound, a burst of white light suddenly dispersed in front of Zhao Yan's eyes, and then out of the white light came an old man wrapped in a white robe, and the sleeves of the robe were woven with gorgeous patterns, making the whole person look very noble.
The white light on the old man's body slowly disappeared, he looked at the food on the fire, then at Zhao Yan's face, and finally pulled his eyes to the food, his eyes jumped upwards violently, and the thick white eyebrows suddenly changed from straight lines to wavy lines.
The white-eyed old man leaned over to the food and said lightly: "It's so fragrant......"
Zhao Yan looked at this fairy-like guy stupidly, and said, "This is my ......"
The white-eyed old man circled around the food and said in surprise, "This is an eggplant?"
Zhao Yan touched his belly and said, "This is ......"
The white-eyed old man said, "This is yours...... I know. ”
