The throat mouth is located in the plain area north of Xianglong City. It is a rural-urban area separated by a Yulong River and bordered by endless pink rice farmlands. The mouth of the throat is not just the name of an area, it is the name of a huge natural cave that leads to the underground, so named because of its shape that resembles a human throat.

On the side of the huge cavern facing the city, there are several small caves, all of which have been dug by man, and are covered with stairs and caves, and they are connected up and down in all directions. This is one of the bases where the early psionic beings developed and transformed the Pink Star when they first arrived at it. It can also be said to be one of the origins of Xianglong City. However, with the transition from villages and towns to cities, as well as the shift of the focus of urban construction, the throat that focuses on the industrial structure of agriculture and animal husbandry has gradually failed to keep up with the pace of development centered on science and technology in Xianglong City, and has slowly been marginalized.

As early as more than a hundred years ago, the low-level spiritual power tenants and ordinary serfs of the landlords at the throat no longer lived in the underground caves in order to facilitate farming and grazing, but lived in the stone houses on the other side of the river. The cave at the mouth of the throat has largely been abandoned. But more than twenty years ago, some city dwellers suddenly came here and bought the underground cavern at a very low price. Then some designers took the talisman to calculate and plan underground, and some architects drove the huge talisman machine into the underground and began to build with a bang. But the local farmers never knew what the city dwellers were doing underground. Now the above-ground part of the cave area at the mouth of the throat has been covered by a large opaque manic shroud, and people from the outside can neither enter nor see the situation inside from the outside.

Lang Tianya did not buy Xiaobu the lowest-end clothes, but bought him a semi-new second-hand mid-to-high-end casual coat. Xiaobu didn't say anything. Before going out, Lang Tianya dressed Xiaobu carefully, trying to get him rid of that bookish anger, creating a temperament that combines exhaustion and decadence of an office worker. After the two of them dressed up, they sat on the public passenger transport charm of the underground commuter loop in the form of a master and a servant, and came to the throat.

When Lang Tianya and Xiaobu reached the ground, they were a little suspicious because they didn't know what the huge rune cover in the distance was for. He contacted the communication charm and the fake paper book, and realized that the joint location was not in the throat mouth inside the talisman cover, but in a small peasant village north of the Yulong River.

When they found the fake paper book, they saw that this guy was no longer the scientific researcher of the government department, and at this moment he was wearing a cloth belt around his head and a leather apron around his waist, and was cooking in the kitchen around the Fuli oven for the farmers who were about to return from working in the fields. Lang Tianya guessed that this guy was disguising himself as a cook again. He and Xiaobu went into the house to say hello to each other, and then Xiaobu came out, but Lang Tianya kept standing on the side and watching the other party busy.

I saw that the fake paper book opened the oven, took out the barbecue buns in the oven, poured the basketball-sized buns into a large rattan basket, and then he brought a large iron basin from a distance and placed it on the side of the rattan basket. The iron bowl is filled with cut vegetables and mixed with many sticky oils and spices, and looks very similar to the salad that Westerners on Earth eat. He beckoned four sturdy peasant women to come in and told them to carry the prepared food to the canteen.

Lang Tianya looked around with great interest at the various pink and green vegetables piled up in the kitchen, as well as the various spices on the table, he stepped forward and took a little or dipped a little of each of them and tasted them, carefully distinguishing that their tastes were similar to those on the earth. He looked around the various rune kitchen utensils in the kitchen again, then he picked up something similar to a wok, entered the internal force and tried it, and a puff of heat came out of the wok. He nodded and said to the other two, "Do you want me to show you a taste of my alien craft?" ”

"Okay!" Xiaobu and the fake paper book said in unison. As soon as they finished speaking, Lang Tianya had already begun to act quickly. He picked up a piece of meat that he didn't know what kind of animal it was and threw it in the air, and in the sword of his right hand flew, the fat and lean meat had been separated, and the fat meat was instantly cut into dices in the air and fell into the woks in his hand. The heating power was everywhere, and these fat dices were heated and refined into oil in a matter of moments. At the same time, the lean meat had already been cut into slices and fell into the pot, and the sound of a piece of fried meat came out. As soon as the meat slices changed color, they were lifted out by Lang Tianya, and the oil in the pot was also poured into the bowl for later use. Then he sliced, striped, and shredded all kinds of vegetables in the air, and stacked them neatly for later use. Then he poured a little base oil into the pan according to the steps, and when the oil was hot, he put the vegetables into the pan, and various spices were put in, and then the meat slices were stir-fried together under the strong heating charm.

After a while, four dishes and one soup were steaming hot on the low table. He found another piece of wood from outside the house, and with a flash of his sword, he cut it into three pairs of chopsticks, two large and one small, and placed them in front of the three straw mats on the low table. The three of them sat down, Xiao Bu looked at the dishes in front of him, and then looked at the chopsticks in Lang Tianya's hand, and couldn't help asking, "Lao Lang, you don't want the three of us to eat the dishes in a bowl like this, right?" ”

"Yes! That's how we show it! Lang Tianya said as he used chopsticks to pick up vegetables for the two of them and put them in the bowl in front of them. The fake paper book followed his example, picked up chopsticks, clumsily picked up a piece of meat from the bowl, and put it in his mouth. Xiaobu and Lang Tianya both stared at him and watched. Xiaobu wanted to see the other party's expression, and if the other party showed a painful look, then he wouldn't try. And Lang Tianya was waiting for that compliment.

"How?" The two asked almost at the same time.

"The taste is a bit special, not easy to rate. However, the aura in the flesh is sufficient, and the nutrients that nourish the dark area are broken and released, and its nutritional value is at least doubled. Isn't your aura thin there? How has it been possible to develop such a high-level dietary level of processed ingredients? ”

Lang Tianya and Xiaobu also took a piece of meat and put it in their mouths. As soon as the food was in his mouth, Lang Tianya knew that he had failed to pretend to be forced. He originally wanted to conquer these barbarians from other worlds with his profound Chinese food culture, but he didn't expect that the taste of the food was not at all the taste of the earth he imagined, and it was indeed a bit strange to eat. He thinks the problem should be the seasoning. If it weren't for the fact that he used the dark domain to shatter the large mass of the ingredients in the process of cooking, making it easier for the nutrients to be immersed in the dark domain for absorption, this table dish could really be thrown away directly.

"It's not the high level of food on the planet, it's the high level of food handling that I have. The taste is really not ideal, let's eat it together. After I've studied the condiments you have here, I'll make you a delicious meal. ”

After the three of them had eaten, a little girl who helped the kitchen cleaned up after calling in for a fake paper book, and the three of them left the kitchen and went to a stone house behind the kitchen. The book on the fake paper first took out a small talisman and used the operation talisman to sacrifice in the air. Lang Tianya felt the faint power it emitted, and guessed that it was to prevent eavesdropping.

"Alright. With its protection, everyone can now have something to say directly. After the three of them sat down, they wrote on a fake piece of paper.

"Who the hell are you?" Lang Tianya asked. The book on the fake paper blinked and did not speak.

"I met a guy in my hometown of Earth, also known as a book on paper, and I thought he was the real book on paper from the Aviation Bureau. If it is true that the paper book has traveled to the earth, then who are you? ”

"I'm not really a book on paper. We know the Aviation Agency well and know that the paper is no longer here all these years, and his departure is very confidential and the average person does not know about it. That's why I'm pretending to be him. At least that would not be the awkward situation of two books on paper at the same time. The fake paper book said and looked at the cloth, and then said, "As for who I am, it doesn't matter. I work as a cook here, using the name Lao Mu, and you can call me Lao Mu in the future. Since you have come to me, it means that you trust me. Don't you have something urgent to ask me, just start, and I'll answer you as best I can. ”

Lang Tianya saw the meaning of Lao Mu's hint. If it was just him who came, Lao Mu might have said his identity, but now that Xiaobu is an outsider, it's best not to talk about identity, and just talk about something. He looked at Lao Mu and Xiao Bu back and forth, and felt that it was best for him to fully trust the two people in front of him, only in this way could the problem be fully studied thoroughly and find out a truly definite and effective solution. So he told in detail how he got the Boundary Bead, how he was tortured and had the idea of committing suicide, how he traveled into this world, and how he wore it back not long ago, and how he wore it back two or three months later, as well as all the various magical thaumaturgy he produced in the process.

"Right now, in that world on Earth, there are thousands of physical aura bombs shooting at us, and the first thing I want to know most at the moment is if I wear it back again, will I face this situation again?" After speaking, Lang Tianya glanced back and forth at the two people in front of him. Xiaobu shook his head and said, "You don't have to look at me, I don't understand this." ”

Lao Mu thought for a while and said, "Although I am studying the Boundary Bead. But this is also the first time I have encountered an example of the survival of a crossing slave, and it is also the first time I have heard such a detailed example of a crossing in detail. I can only answer your questions with my current knowledge, and I can't guarantee that they are all right. I think if you wear it back in, you'll definitely be in the same situation. ”

"Why is this happening? Isn't the time I spend here all zero? By the same token, the three months I spent over there, oh, if you convert it, to more than fifty days of your time here, where did that time go? For me, for such a long period of time, there hasn't been any time passing here. ”

"Because the Boundary Bead is now building a bridge between the two worlds, it now exists in two worlds in a way that distorts time and space. And as a parasite for it, so do you now. You are now in two worlds at the same time. ”
