Seeing Ace being frightened by the flames on his own body, jumping up and down, Locke could only shake his head helplessly, and he didn't know if it was just an accident, or if there was a hand in the dark controlling all this.

If it was just an accident, then Locke's dream of changing the world would still be possible, but if it was really that thing called fate that controlled everything, then what was the point of what Locke was doing now.

But after looking at Carmen, who was busy on the side, Locke regained confidence in all this, since Carmen's fate can be changed, why can't someone else's! What just happened may have really been an accident.

"Okay, don't jump, that's just a fruit ability, it won't burn you." Locke, who had figured it out, said to Ace.

"Alas! Really! Sure enough, it didn't hurt at all. After listening to Locke's words, Ace finally reacted and found that although the fires were burning on him, he had nothing to do with them.

After Ace was able to control the flames on his body, he walked in front of Locke again, and then bowed ninety degrees: "Thank you!" ”

"And then?" Locke was waiting for Ace's next words, only to find that he actually walked away after bowing, and went to study the newly acquired fruit ability, completely ignoring Locke's question.

"Good luck boy." The old man, who was watching everything here, muttered.

"By the way, senior, I haven't asked for your name yet." Locke didn't have much to do at this time, so he went to sit down next to the old man and said to the old man.

"Didn't you just say that the name is just a code name, why bother asking so clearly! If you are happy, you can call me senior, and if you are not happy, you can call me an old man. The old man said unhurriedly.

"Okay, I'll call you old man!" Locke is very unhappy now, he was beaten by the old man just now, it's strange to be happy, since he said that it's okay to call him an old man if he is not happy, of course he will call him an old man.

Locke was a real man.

When the old man heard Locke call him that, he didn't say anything, but just glanced at him obliquely.

"Old man, you said you were good at eating?" Locke asked unceremoniously.

The old man nodded, he had already said it just now, this kid is asking what he wants to do now, the old man couldn't figure out what Locke wanted to say for a while, just looked at Locke and nodded.

"What a coincidence, I also like to eat, come and let's exchange food experience." Locke looked at the old man and nodded, then continued.

“......”

Unexpectedly, this old man seemed to have few words, but when Locke talked to him about eating, he began to talk endlessly.

However, Locke is not to be outdone, after all, in his previous life, as a foodie nation, his research on food would not be worse than anyone else's.

The two of them swam from the water and talked about running on the ground, running from the ground to talking about flying in the sky, as long as they could eat, there was basically no two people who didn't talk, and in the end the old man could only barely parry Locke by virtue of his more knowledge in this world for decades.

Fortunately, when Locke talked to the old man about the one hundred and eighth ways to eat bugs, Carmen's dish was ready.

And Xiong Daxiong and Xiong Er also appeared at the foot of the mountain with Yun Zhinan and Panda, carrying some wild vegetables picked in the forest.

"That's it! Eat tiger meat hot pot tonight! Carmen looked at the bears who were rushing up the hill, and said to Locke, and after saying that, she glanced at the old man next to Locke.

"Hot pot?" Hearing this name, the old man glanced at Locke obliquely, and remembered that this kid had just told him that there was such a way to eat, but he didn't expect this little girl to do it!

"That's right, it's hot pot, old man, you will definitely like it." Carmen said, and Ka explained his own method of tiger meat hot pot.

First Carmen took the two thigh bones behind the tiger, then used a knife to separate the meat and bones, and then crushed the tiger bones into powder with telekinesis and put them in a pot, boiling them with water until the water and soup were integrated.

Then Carmen also put the spices that had been collected in the jungle into the soup as a seasoning to make the soup taste better, so the hot pot soup base was sitting.

All that's left is to slice the freshly separated tiger meat.

"Hah! Ha! Ha! Zhinan, you came just in time, eat tiger meat hot pot tonight. Looking at the coming Yunzhinan, Locke said.

"Hot pot? Did you invent it again? Yun Zhinan asked curiously.

Since Yun Zhinan got on Locke's ship, the dishes he ate were basically dictated by Locke, and then Carmen made these recipes by hand, and the results were all delicious.

Several people sat around the cauldron, the soup base in the pot was tumbling, and Locke shouted to Ace and the old man not far away, "Come here, it's time to start eating." ”

"Alright! Let me try it, this thing called hot pot, whether it tastes as good as you kid said. The old man slowly walked over and sat down beside Locke.

"It's time to eat! I'm coming! Ace didn't have so much nonsense, he just came over, and then took the spoon in the pot and began to look for food in the pot.

"Why is there no meat? Is it to drink soup? After fishing for a while, he found that there was nothing, and then he took the spoon and prepared to put the soup base in his mouth.

"Alas! Wait......" But Locke was still late, and Ace had already drunk the soup from the spoon.

"Ahh It's so spicy! After Ace drank it, he just put it in his mouth, and his whole face turned red, and then he screamed, and there were flames spewing out of his mouth, and the scene was very spectacular.

"I'll just wait!" Looking at Ace like this, Locke said speechlessly.

"Hot pot is not eaten like this, you have to ...... like this" Seeing that Ace finally eased up, Locke began to tell a few people how to eat hot pot, and picked up a piece of tiger meat from the side by himself, and then shook it in the pot and demonstrated it to them.

"It turns out that this is called hot pot, so it eats like this!" Ace suddenly realized.

Locke glanced at Ace angrily, for this person who doesn't know anything about eating, Locke doesn't say anything.

"In that case, I'll try it too, old man." The old man was not polite, and followed Locke's example, picked up a piece of tiger meat, and waited until the meat was almost ready, and put it in his mouth.

"Hmmm! Yes, it tastes delicious, and the essence of tiger bones is integrated into the soup, and in the process of scalding, you can also decide the time of scalding according to personal preference, which is a great way to eat. The old man commented as he ate.

"Eat hot pot, if you want to match this, it will be cool!" Locke watched the old man eat hot pot with a look of enjoyment, and then behind him, he found a bucket of wine and handed it to him.
