"Shining, come!" Lichun smiled and handed me a delicate little basket, and the fresh fragrance came to my face, and when I saw it, it was pickled plum preserves. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

At the beginning of summer, there are many delicious things on the market, and green plums and broad beans are among the representatives.

I held the basket in my hand, took a plum and put it in my mouth, and the sweet and sour taste suddenly spread in my mouth, which lifted my spirits.

I've never eaten such delicious plum preserves!

If they are there, they don't have to worry about food and drink, and even if everything is in short supply after the earthquake, it has nothing to do with them. As long as they want, the resources of any corner of the world can be scrapped.

In fact, they are keen to let me cook every day, not because of how delicious I cook, but just to pursue some kind of fireworks flavor of human life.

This time, just after the wee hours of the morning, we reached a huge building on top of a hill through a mysterious passage in the backyard.

Since it's a backyard straight through, I don't know where in the world this is. I feel that this must be within the geographical scope of my country, because the shape of this building is so classical and elegant, and it is a complete escapist style, and it would be very incompatible to think that such a building appeared in another country.

The steep summit of the mountain unexpectedly naturally forms a large flat ground, like a huge square. Such an open and flat hilltop flat land is very rare, and if it appeared in our world, it would definitely make headlines, known as "Xianrentai" or something. What's more, it's not just a platform, it's a large building that doesn't look like it was made by humans.

The mountain was so high that it was completely in a mist of clouds that it was impossible to see what it looked like at the bottom of the mountain, and under the bright moonlight, only a white expanse could be seen, so I didn't even know how high the peak was. What's more, I don't see a road to climb at all, and how can this building be made by a human craftsman, not to mention a human, not even a monkey can climb such a mountain?

Therefore, the word "ghostly workmanship" does not seem to be a godly word at all, and "ghostly workmanship" really exists.

When we arrived, the interior of the "Hall of Immortals" was already crowded with guests.

Before entering the main hall, I could already smell a very fragrant smell, the smell of carefully prepared food. When we entered the building, all the guests stood up to greet them, all of whom were strange-looking "non-humans", and the few "regulars" we had seen last time were still among them.

This hall is as big as the main hall of the imperial palace that I saw when I visited the Forbidden City, but the carved furnishings in the hall are much more magnificent than the imperial palace, and the sculptures on the walls and pillars are not at all the strange flowers and beasts that can be seen in the world. However, such an imposing palace is now arranged into a huge banquet hall, which is lined with long wooden tables of classical style, and the tables are filled with fine wine and delicacies.

I'm used to this kind of demon feast, it's just as lively as a human party, but when the wine is drunk, there will be more variety. Look at the table, there are all kinds of cooked delicacies, the aroma is tangy, you don't need to taste it to know that this "chef" is absolutely skilled.

However, although there are many kinds of dishes on the table, most of them are very ordinary, they are the things we usually eat, and there are no rare delicacies from the mountains and seas. Such an ordinary ingredient can be made with all the color, flavor and flavor, and the smell alone makes the mouth water, and this craftsmanship is indeed admirable. If these "non-human" chefs also opened restaurants in the human world, they would definitely make a lot of money with the pursuit of food in this era.

"It's the beginning of summer, today I made nine meat and thirteen vegetarians, let's have a drink!" Lichun smiled and picked up the wine glass, and poked Lixia with his elbow. The red-clothed Lixia snorted and turned his head, but judging from his expression, his mood was not bad.

After all, it's "Lixia", no matter why his name is Lixia, the mood will not be too bad at this solar term, just like the day of the beginning of spring, the mood of Lichun is also extraordinarily good.

"Nine meat and thirteen vegetarians", this seems to be the way of eating in the human world, compared with pea glutinous rice, it is a more grand way to welcome summer. I have a feeling that the food and wine served here must be arranged according to Liqing's wishes, because she is the only one who attaches so much importance to human customs.

Moreover, when you enter this large "banquet hall", you can feel that Li Qing must be the protagonist here, because all the demons, including some big demons, are respectful to her and revolve around her.

And many drinking and feasting shows that I can always get along well with the demons around Liqing, and I can always go home happy.

There is a wide variety of food on the table. The nine meats are crucian carp, mackerel, salted fish, salted eggs, snails, extinguished chicken, pickled fresh, marinated shrimp and cherry meat; The thirteen vegetables are cherries, plums, silkworms, bamboo shoots, broad beans, spear needles, peas, cucumbers, lettuce, grass, radish, roses, and pine flowers, all of which are carefully prepared with fresh ingredients in season. The wine on the desk is contained in a clay jar, which looks like something that has been around for an unknown number of years, and as soon as the jar is opened, the aroma of wine overflows.

I remembered what they had said, the more difficult the moment, the more serious it is to celebrate. Celebration is a ritual, a form of prayer to show gratitude for the continuation of life, a determination to see this moment as a new beginning, and to ask the gods for their help.

That being the case, I'm going to celebrate it in earnest today! I think of the psychic belt that has just died out in the world, and they will also start with this beginning of summer, start to spend spring, summer, autumn and winter again, and start accumulating the power of life again, right?

When I think about it this way, I feel that this world is still very magical and full of hope.

Although the catastrophe of the Blood Moon is a sign that the human world is out of balance and tends to be dark, when I walk on the ruins, I encounter more than just dark things, so how can the laws of nature make such a one-size-fits-all approach to the human world?

Soon, these complicated thoughts disappeared, because the wine and food here are good, and as soon as you start to raise your glass, you will soon be captured by the atmosphere of drinking.

The wine is fragrant and soft in the mouth, but it is very strong. After a few cups, my head was a little dizzy. I saw that Liqing was also with the demons, pushing the cup and changing the lamp, and drinking to your heart's content. Her long black hair was curled casually with only a thorn hairpin, and most of the green silk could not be curled, like black silk satin, hanging down on the bright red clothes, looking so charming and moving. Her face, her eyebrows, her lips, all exquisite, all perfect, looking at it, my heart suddenly jumped wildly.

I don't know what's wrong, maybe I've drunk a little too much, I just think she's so good-looking, I want to keep watching, I just feel that my heart beats fast, and this kind of thing is not something I can control.

At that moment, I heard a voice whisper to me, "Go, pull out her hairpin!" ”

I was startled and thought in a daze, pulling out her hairpin? Isn't this kind of behavior frivolous?

I thought so in my heart, but my body somehow didn't listen to the command. I know it's the mysterious man who speaks to me, but is as calm as he is, and he has such a bad taste?

Even in my mind, there are some beautiful pictures, if you pull off her hairpin, the long hair will slide down like water, it must be beautiful!

I don't know what's wrong with me, but I just caught a glimpse of a vacancy where there was no one around her, walked up to her, quietly pinched her hairpin, pulled it out suddenly, and then turned around and ran.

I saw Hu Liqing looking at me in amazement, and she was actually stunned, her green hair really flew up, and then slowly floated down, beautiful like a myth.

Then, it took me a long time to regret it, and at that moment, I must have been controlled by something, so I lost my mind.
