Chapter 514: Round Ice's Special Lunch
Huo Chi and Qingqing were chatting on the small deck, and while they were lamenting what the White Eagle had done during the monster invasion, the warship announced through the radio that the guests on board could go to lunch.
The two stopped talking and headed for the dining room, perhaps because the issues they were discussing were a little sensitive, and the two ice men on the deck couldn't help but look at the two of them.
"The Chinese people always think that it is the White Eagle that has caused the current situation. One of them smiled.
"Hmph, on the surface, it seems that the White Eagle is making everyone miss the opportunity, but in fact, how can it be that simple? The real situation is far more complicated than the girl said. Another agreed.
Su Qingqing couldn't hear their words, but Huo Chi could hear them clearly. He shrugged slightly, the round iceman had never been attacked by monsters on a large scale in his homeland because he was far away from the center of the monsters. These people always think that they are the pride of the sky, and their attitude towards things is much more arrogant.
However, feng shui takes turns, and the round ice people don't have to be so proud, maybe when, the monster will come directly, and then they will be able to experience it firsthand, what is called despair.
"There are already so many people in the restaurant?" Su Qingqing and Huo Chi came to the door of the guest designated restaurant, only to find that it was almost overcrowded, seeing that there was not much left of the table, fortunately they saw Fu Ze and them.
"This way, this way. Xiao Jian beckoned to Huo Chi, who walked over and asked, "What do you have to eat at noon?"
"It's not just the characteristics of round ice. Although Fu Ze and the others haven't gone to get the food yet, they don't have any hope for the food here, and he said helplessly: "Yuanbing is an island country surrounded by the sea, so they like to eat seafood, and they eat seafood every meal. ”
Huo Chi took out the room card and Su Qingqing walked directly to the food picking area, the cafeteria can eat for free with the room card, and when Huo Chi took the plate and chose the meal for himself, he found that what Fu Ze said was true.
Although the dining style here is buffet-style, the round ice warship is very picky, and there are only a dozen kinds of food here, and most of them are raw and cold foods such as sashimi.
Huo Chi returned to his seat with two servings of sashimi, a large bowl of boiled food, and two large rice balls, and found that the others had taken similar ones, and that there were too few options here.
Huo Chi was a little puzzled, didn't he teach the method of making ramen to the round ice man?
The food on the plate looked good, and Huo Chi tried the half-soup and half-vegetable stew that the round ice man called a boiled thing.
The taste of the stew is quite good, because there is a lot of fish and vegetables in it, and after a long time of stewing, the umami will appear, and as long as you put some salt in the soup, it will be quite comfortable to drink.
It's just that Huo Chi is a little regretful that only fish is put in the stew, and it looks a little firewood after stewing. If they add some meat with a high fat content to it, even if it's just a little bit, it will taste much better.
Huo Chi tried sashimi again, and he was supposed to be fishing sashimi, the flesh of the fish was white and red, and it looked very tender. Although the fillets, the fillets, which are a little thickly sliced, do not give the impression of being as thin as cicada's wings, but the meat itself is very fresh.
A piece of sea bream meat is not only fragrant and tender, but also quite able to bring the necessary heat and nutrients needed by the human body, but the fly in the ointment is that the dipping sauce given by the warship is really not very good.
This amber liquid Huo Chi thought it was some kind of light soy sauce, but when he actually ate it, he realized that it was not soy sauce but some kind of soup stewed from root food. The soup tasted slightly spicy, and he deeply suspected that it was made from some kind of wasabi rhizome.
Wasabi didn't eat like this, Huo Chi was also speechless, he had to take out the poisonous powder of the demon hunting spider to share with everyone, with the demon hunting spider mustard, the sashimi finally tasted delicious.
The rice balls, the staple food provided by the warship, tasted okay, and the rice produced in round ice was of very good quality, even without any seasonings, the taste was quite delicious.
Overall, this lunch is a fairly good cooking level in this world, but the taste is a little bland, if the future meals are all at this level, Huo Chi feels that the captain's previous reaction is normal.
After everyone finished eating and returned to the guest room, Xiao Jian was still chattering: "I can't eat your cooking for half a month, I have to eat this every day, it's really unbearable." ”
Huo Chi can't help it, this is the jurisdiction of Yuan Bing, as members of the Huaxia expedition, they still have to be as low-key as possible, cooking or something, let's wait until they get ashore.
After nightfall, Qin Lang's snoring had already started, and Huo Chi was lying on the narrow bed, a little difficult to sleep. The sea was calm for the past two days, and he could hardly feel the sway of the hull on the 10,000-ton cruiser, so he did not feel any discomfort.
However, he just couldn't sleep. Huo Chi turned over a few times on the bed, and simply sat up, if he can't sleep, he can't sleep, anyway, he has good stamina and recovery ability. Now that the night is dark, why not go to the deck to see the bright moon on the sea.
Huo Chi got up quietly and put on his coat, but Qin Lang heard Huo Chi's movement: "Why are you up?"
"I can't sleep, just go out and breathe. Huo Chi pushed open the door and said, "I'll come back when I feel sleepy." ”
"Be careful. Qin Lang rolled over and continued to sleep. Huo Chi walked out of the suite.
After dark, the guest room area was very quiet, and the lights in the corridor were dimmed a lot, and Huo Chi slowly came to the deck area, but there were no more tourists on the deck.
Huo Chi opened the panoramic view, and the dark sea seemed to be silent except for the reflection of the bright moon on the sea.
He leaned quietly against the railing, and his mood became very calm. Occasionally, footsteps on the upper deck can be heard from far and near, and from near and far. Huo Chi knew that it was the footsteps of the round ice patrol, and there might be unknown dangers hidden in the sea after nightfall, and the commander of the warship did not dare to take it lightly.
However, Huo Chi could see that the frigates on both sides were following the cruiser closely, and with them there, the ship would be much safer.
"Hey—"
"Hey—"
Suddenly, Huo Chi seemed to hear something, and the voice was erratic, coming and going. When you don't pay attention, you hear it, and when you listen closely, you don't hear it at all.
What kind of sound? Huo Chi wondered in his heart, this voice didn't look like it came from a monster, but it didn't look like a human voice, could it be his own delusion?
Feeling a little uneasy, he simply closed his eyes and focused all his attention on his ears.
"Hey—"
The voice came again, this time it was much clearer, Huo Chi opened his eyes, he had to go and see what was going on.
