Chapter 222: Super Peek-a-boo
For dinner, I ate a few sheep caught from Antelope Valley.
The method of Phoenix Ling is very simple: it is boiled mutton to make hand-grilled meat. Put nothing but lamb and salt.
The tender meat is chopped into small pieces and wrapped in the belly of the lamb to make belly meat. It tastes extremely refreshing.
The fattest part of the sheep is in the tail part, which is where the sheep stores fat, also known as sheep tail oil. In later generations, many people could not eat it and felt that it was too tired.
But for the primitive who lacks fat reserves, sheep's tail oil is a rare delicacy. The way to eat sheep's tail oil is to cut the sheep's tail oil into small pieces and put them on the palm of your hand, and then suck them directly into your stomach - generally speaking, you can judge whether you are a qualified dry rice person by looking at the way you eat sheep's tail oil.
Like Phoenix Ling, who puts it in his hand and sucks and eats it, he is a top-notch dry rice person. If you can't eat it and feel too tired and throw it aside, you belong to a shoddy dry rice person, and you don't even deserve to be a dry rice person.
"The Yuan Qingniu you said is in the south, can you take me to the south?" Wang Xijia cut off a piece of Ling mutton with a knife and asked Phoenix Ling while eating.
He felt that Phoenix Ling's Phoenix Mount was very convenient, and if Phoenix Ling knew where Yuan Qingniu was, he might be able to fly there with him in a day.
"I can't go, the south is the place of our chief, our capital. The chief stipulated that no one could fly over the capital. The only way to go is by land. Phoenix Ling said while eating meat.
This surprised Wang Xika: he didn't expect that the natives of this era would also have the concept of "clear space". For security reasons, later generations of state leaders often demarcated a "no-fly zone" over the capital's own place of residence, in order to fear enemy air raids.
So why did this Aztec leader not allow anyone to fly over the capital? With this question in mind, Wang Xika interviewed Master Phoenix Ling, who was eating meat/sausage.
This meat/sausage is made from lamb intestines, washed and poured with fat and lean lamb. Freshly poured and cooked, very delicious.
"Of course, I'm afraid that someone will attack him from the sky on a phoenix, so what can it be?" Phoenix Ling said.
Well, it seems that the ancient chiefs, like the modern chieftains, set up no-fly zones for security reasons. It's just that later generations of aircraft, such as airplanes and drones, can shoot bullets and drop bombs. What's the threat of this phoenix?
"It's a big threat, you can shoot rockets at the palace, throw big stones, and even take the big phoenix to hit the palace directly, do you think it should be banned?" said Phoenix Ling, a dry rice man, while eating meat/intestines.
"So, what if you insist on riding a phoenix to break into the palace?" Wang Xika was eager to learn about the imperial city's defense system. In the afterlife, if you fly in the no-fly zone, you will be shot down by empty cannons. And at that time there was a radar, and you could see you clearly before you even flew to the radar.
In this era, there is no radar, what if someone insists on riding a phoenix to attack the imperial city? You must know that every dynasty must have one or two people who want to rebel.
"There are observation posts, and each observation post has a large bow and crossbow, and the bow and crossbow are so powerful that you can shoot them down as high as you fly. As soon as the phoenix passes, it will shoot into an egg. Therefore, phoenixes generally do not fly south, and sycamore trees are not allowed to be placed in the imperial city. ”
The Observation Post King, Higa, is understandable - the leader of any tribe, as long as he has some power, likes to set up an observation post. As for the "large bow and crossbow" in the imperial city, Wang Xijia thought that it might be the kind of bow and crossbow designed by the strategists in the Song of Ice and Fire that can shoot dragons. If it was one of those large bed crossbows, it would indeed be possible to shoot a flying phoenix into a phoenix egg with one arrow.
It seems that the Aztec Empire's defenses are still very strong, and it would have been difficult for the Spanish Empire to defeat the Aztec Empire without the smallpox virus.
"Have you ever ridden a phoenix to kill a king in your history?" Wang Xika was very curious, I wonder if there were any Chen Sheng Wu Guang-style people in the history of the Aztecs?
The history of the Aztecs is poorly known to later generations, who only know that they fought against the Spaniards. Little is known about their own history, as few people can decipher their texts.
"Why not? Phoenix Ling said nonchalantly. This dry rice man doesn't seem to care much about other things except dry rice.
"Did you win?"
"There are losses and wins, if you win, you will be the king, and if you lose, you will be beheaded, it's as simple as that. ”
It seems that the whole world is the same: the winner is king, and the loser is the loser.
Although Wang Xijia was interested in the history of the Aztecs, he was more interested in Yuan Qingniu.
"Do you think Yuan Qingniu will be in your palace?"
"It's possible, that's what Yuan Qingniu said anyway. Hey, don't worry about Yuan Zhenren or not Yuan Zhenren. Eat well, come, drink a bowl of soup!"
Phoenix Ling said that this handed He Fan a bowl of mutton soup.
Wang Xijia looked at the paintings for a day, and his mind was chaotic. At this time, I drank a bowl of hot mutton soup, and I forgot all my troubles - this Yuan Zhenren is looking for him by himself, he is not there, he is not looking for him, painting murals and leaving money, and waiting for himself to find him is not very authentic.
There are still so many interesting things in the world, that Yuan Qingniu likes to pretend to be a ghost, so let him continue to pretend to be a ghost.
Just do what you have to do and drink your own mutton soup. The so-called should eat, drink, and maintain a good attitude.
After eating mutton and drinking mutton soup, it is time for a walk. The so-called 100 steps after a meal, live to ninety-nine. Such a classic health theory, Phoenix Ling, which pays attention to maintenance, naturally understands.
At the moment, Phoenix Ling took Wang Xika and the gray beaver around Youshan Meidi several times, as a local, he knew a lot of beautiful scenery that outsiders didn't know.
The Aztecs, who didn't have to worry about their livelihoods, developed a lot of games after eating, and Phoenix Ling invited Wang Xika and the gray beaver to participate in their games.
That game turned out to be hide and seek, aka hide and seek. This game King Xika has played it before, but I have the impression that it should be a game played by children under the age of 12.
I have already taught the village names adult games such as basketball and football motorcycles at night in Shanghekou, who knew that this kind of mentally handicapped game was still being played here.
But follow the local customs, everyone likes to play so much, so let's play. In the first game, Phoenix Ling was in charge of finding people, and Wang Xijia and the gray beaver and seven or eight other Aztecs were in charge of hiding.
Peek-a-boo is a game, Wang Xika is still very good at it. You can't hide too badly in this kind of game, so that it won't be interesting to be caught at a glance.
Of course, you can't hide it too well, and it's not interesting to hide it so that no one can find it.
3, 2, 1!
The crowd immediately began to hide. Wang Xijia hid in a rocky mouth, and he couldn't see it from the outside. Just as he wondered if he had hidden it too well, he felt a pair of big hands pull him out.
"Haha! I've found you!" Phoenix Ling was as happy as a child - indeed, this kind of childish game is the only one that this group can have so much fun with
Wang Xijia followed Phoenix Ling to find someone, and Phoenix Ling suddenly pulled out a reed from the water, and there was a person attached to the reed - it turned out to be a gray beaver hiding in the water, breathing with only one reed.
It must be said that the idea is very good, hiding in the water can filter out the smell. At that time, the gray beaver also thought about climbing a tree after transforming, and he was a jaguar after transforming, and he was very good at climbing trees. But there are no tall trees nearby, and if you climb up the tree, you are afraid that Phoenix Ling will ride the phoenix to find it.
After weighing it repeatedly, he decided to hide in the water, but he didn't expect to be found out - it turned out that there were no reeds in the water of Yosemite, and the reed of the gray beaver was the one he carried with him. There is only one reed on the bare water, which is very abrupt.
After being caught, Phoenix Ling gave a thumbs up to the gray beaver and said, "Good hiding, very thoughtful, if we didn't have reeds here, I wouldn't have found you." ”
The gray beaver scratched his head shyly, and said again and again: "Careless, careless......"
But no one else can find it, and they can't find it. The grey beaver transformed into a jaguar could not be found, and there was no smell at all.
Phoenix Ling circled a few times but didn't find it, and suddenly shouted at the top of his voice: "Hide in the sky, come down quickly! I see you!"
After this shout, several phoenixes suddenly appeared in the sky, and on each phoenix sat an Aztec - it turned out that this group of goods actually hid on the phoenix and flew away, who could find this? This group of goods are well trained, let the phoenix glide and take off, so that the sound of wings flapping can not be heard.
"Is this okay?" Wang Xika had never seen anyone playing peek-a-boo to the sky.
"Of course you can, one of the best hiddens in our clan once hid in the North Pole! The rest of us searched for five years to find it!" said Phoenix Ling excitedly, with an excited look on her face. It's as if Maradona's teammates were talking about Maradona's skills.
Wang Xijia felt that this was a bit difficult to understand. It's like playing peek-a-boo with people in China, and then turning around and buying a ticket to fly to the United States, is it necessary for a peek-a-boo to play so wild?
In fact, the Aztecs were global in peek-a-boo, and they played wild because they had phoenixes. It is said that someone once hid all his life without being found, and it is rumored to be a good story......
Because Wang Xika was the first to be caught in the last game, Wang Xika came to find someone in this game.
The game of Aztec peek-a-boo is so wild that Wang Xika doesn't want to play it anymore. But seeing that everyone is in the mood, it's not good to spoil the fun, so it's still difficult to play another game.
"10,9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1,0" Wang Xika shouted and turned his head, and there was no one around.
The breeze blows on the hills, the moon shines on the river, and there is no sign of life nearby.
A huge sense of loneliness hit him in an instant, and Wang Xika couldn't tell what year it was.
Lonely, or lonely. This is Wang Xijia's only feeling. Are you really playing a game? or are you being played?
"Friends in the sky, I see you, come out!" Wang Xijia tried to shout, but he didn't expect 8 phoenixes to appear in front of him in an instant.
"Wow, you're so good, how did you find us?"
"What a strong man! It's the first time that an outsider can find us so quickly!"
"I'm almost flying to the beach, and I'm still being seen......"
Everyone praised Wang Xika for being really powerful.
Wang Xijia thought to himself, I watched you play like this once in the first game, if I didn't think that you were hiding in the sky, then I wouldn't be in vain?
However, there was one person who was never found, and that was the grey beaver.
The man did not know where he was hiding, not in the river, nor in the trees. Wang Xijia searched for a while but couldn't find it, so he went back to the house to rest.
