Volume 4 The Rising Star of the Imperial Capital 80 When the wind blows through the lawn at the top of the hill 03
Just as Hawke felt the blow, Xu Zheng shouted happily: "It's baked!"
As soon as the words fell, a group of young people hula gathered around. Xu Zheng first gave the baked food to Rex and other elders, and then it was the turn of Angel and York and the others.
A round of barbecue was divided, except for Xu Zheng and the five demonic beasts, the rest of them were there. Seeing that they couldn't eat it, the five demonic beasts realized that the cooked duck flew away like this, and their hearts were extremely unbalanced, and they all looked at Xu Zheng with angry eyes. Xu Zheng looked at them apologetically and hurriedly roasted the second batch.
Among this group of people, many people tasted Xu Zheng's craftsmanship for the first time, and when they tasted it, they immediately caused a sensation. Oh my God, when you eat this barbecue in your mouth, you first feel the rich flavor of the seasoning, and then the meat pieces wrapped in full fat are crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, not only chewy, but also fragrant when chewing, and the aftertaste is endless. There is also a special fragrance after pickling, and when you eat the barbecue in your mouth, you will feel like you are feeling like you are in the gut.
The Cowherd chewed on the meat and said inarticulately: "Huohuo, this is a thousand times better than our Virgil's barbecue." ”
Hawke buried himself in eating hard, and it was rare that he didn't refute it once.
After the second roast was over, both the man and the monster ate the delicious barbecue.
Under the blazing firelight, people and monsters stayed together peacefully and quietly, enjoying Xu Zheng's craftsmanship together. By the bonfire, there were smiling faces. In the flames, the slight sound of the burning blades intertwined with the sound of knives and forks colliding on plates, weaving a joyful and peaceful atmosphere.
Because the taste was too delicious, and many people had the idea of having a good time, Xu Zheng roasted it six times before giving up. When it came to the fourth time, Angel and Hawke enthusiastically learned Xu Zheng's technique to bake together, and the baking was not bad.
The barbecue is followed by dessert and fruit. Everyone moved to the surroundings of the RV, and the unique snacks of fireflies were continuously delivered in front of everyone. Ice cream, fruit ice, rock sugar gourds and so on, a table was filled. After Xu Zheng's hand. The rock sugar gourd is grandly on the table, which is an interesting thing.
Fortunately for the rest of us, most of these things have been seen. Only Hawke and the Cowherd from Virgil were greatly surprised. Now, Hawke admires Xu Zheng's erudition and versatility. I don't have the slightest mood to compete anymore. Being a person can be strong enough to be a pervert like Xu Zheng, that is no longer a human being, it is a super pervert. For a non-human existence, why should you compare with him, except for hitting your own confidence, it really doesn't do you any good.
When the moon was on the treetops, all the people were full of wine and food. Lazily chatting with those who should chat, drinking when they should drink, playing cards when they should play cards, just waiting for the moon to be empty. After enough rest, he set off back to Zion.
At first, Xu Zheng was smiling and watching the three women play cat fishing, but later found that it was a bit boring to play around and only play this one. He dragged Bruce over and asked him to join. Teach four people to learn to play double promotion. The new-style gameplay of the opposite family immediately attracted the four of them. Old Banga watched for a while, only to feel that his hands were itchy and unbearable, and he also dragged Old Banga and Barlow, and then called Carlo, and the four of them formed a game again. This was followed by a group of drivers, all fascinated by this card game and learning it with great interest.
By the time everyone has basically learned how to play double lifting. Xu Zheng inadvertently turned his head and found Hawke half-leaning under a tree, holding a wine bottle in his hand, half-drunk and half-conscious looking up at the sky. The cowherd was lying at his feet, already too drunk to know what to do.
Xu Zheng walked over and said, "It's quite leisurely." ”
Hawke smiled lightly and said, "I suddenly found that the two moons in the sky turned out to be so beautiful. ”
Xu Zheng patted his ass and sat down, and said, "Of course." They've always been so good-looking, you just haven't noticed. He smiled and said: "Ordinary Prince Hawke, how can you have such a mood and time to watch the night sky and admire the moon." ”
Hawke turned his head and said, "What a jolly day." I've never been so happy. It seems that all of a sudden, fighting for the throne, fighting for the favor of my father, and the intrigues in the palace are far away from me, and I can no longer remember these troubles. You know, I now know that people can still live like this. Xu Zheng, you are amazing, I have never met anyone like you. Today's outing, I will remember for the rest of my life. He sighed and said, "After such a relaxed and happy day, I realized that I actually didn't like the way I used to live." ”
Xu Zheng also turned his head to look at Hawke, not knowing what to say.
Hawke laughed self-deprecatingly and said, "I really envy you." I admire you even more, you have no desires, the only thing you want is a simple and happy life. Like me, the east also fights, the west also fights, big and small, everything is fighting, ambition and power* are too great. often laughs at other people's vulgarity, but in fact, the most vulgar is yourself. ”
Xu Zheng took the sprinkler bottle from his hand, took a sip, and immediately frowned at the fierceness of the jade ice burning inside. No way, he can make wine, but he just can't drink. After the spiciness in his throat passed, Xu Zheng said slowly: "Let me tell you a story." ”
"Once upon a time, there was a teenager who began to lie in a hospital bed since he was 10 years old......"
Turning the interstellar war into a war in another world, Xu Zheng in his previous life was replaced by a teenager from the Aris continent, Xu Zheng slowly told his story, and all kinds of things in his previous life resurfaced in front of him.
“...... The boy slowly turned into an old man, and the war ended. The boy finally realizes that what he had dreamed of was not what he really longed for. It turns out that the most important thing for a person is freedom, health and peace, and a simple and happy life. ”
Hawke muttered, "Freedom, health, peace, simplicity and happiness." It's a very undemanding goal, but it's hard to achieve. People will always be blinded by one kind or another* and can't see what they really want. ”
"Hmm. Xu Zheng nodded and said, "I didn't see it either." But the poor boy turned old man told me his story, and I understood. Now I'm going to tell you, I hope you can understand and cherish every day. Decades from now, when you look back on the past of your life, would you rather remember the power struggle, or would you prefer to remember today's ordinary and fulfilling day?"
Hawke was silent.
Xu Zheng smiled and said, "I'll drink a song for you." ”
"Can you sing?" Hawke looked at Xu Zheng amusedly.
Xu Zheng glared: "Don't underestimate me." I can't have children but anything. Oh yes, except for painting. ”
"You just blow it, blow the cow out, blow the sky away!" Hawke chuckled, looking forward to the song that the second prince would sing.
Ignoring Hawke's reaction, Xu Zheng cleared his throat and slapped the beat with his palm, and began to sing in a whisper while narrating the matter:
Life is a play.
Zero years old shines on the stage,
Growing up happily at the age of ten,
Twenty-year-old hesitating for love,
Thirty-year-old basic orientation,
Forty years old desperately fighting,
Looking back at the age of fifty,
At the age of sixty, he returned to his hometown,
At the age of seventy, there is no extravagance,
Eighty years old basking in the sun,
Ninety years old lying in bed,
A hundred years old becomes a portrait.
Great in life, desolate in death!
So, my dear friend, eat when you should eat, drink when you should drink, sing when you should, and don't think too much about things in your heart;
Taking a bath and looking at the time, a minute of comfort is a minute, and a second of happiness is a second.
Don't seek merit and fame, but seek to live well!
After cherishing life for a hundred years, Xu Zheng sang it himself, and Hawke was also stupid.
The moon shadow was thin, and Xu Zheng and Huo Ke were immersed in their own thoughts. The mountain breeze blew slowly, stirring the clothes of the two of them, only to feel the thoughts in their hearts turned a thousand times, and for a while seemed to remember everything, and it seemed that nothing was remembered, only that the dust was like a dream, and the most real thing was actually just a happy life.
I don't know how long it took for Xu Zheng to wake up as if he was from a dream. After looking around, there were many people behind him, standing or sitting, all with thoughtful expressions. Only Sadie and Maya, who still didn't understand the world, looked at Xu Zheng with bright eyes, and said, "Brother Xu Zheng, you sing so well, can you sing it again?"
Xu Zheng smiled bitterly, in a hundred years of life, how can a narrative song be sung all the bittersweet and bitter? Or is it good to be a child, it is precisely because he doesn't understand anything that he is simply happy. Like myself, I deliberately forget the experience of my past life all the time and find simple happiness again.
Sadie and Maya's words woke up the dreamer, Rex looked at Xu Zheng in a daze, and only after a long time did he look up at the yellow moon and the red moon in the sky, and said, "A point of comfort is a point, and a second of happiness is a second." I don't want merit and fame, but I want to live well! Sing well, sing well! Sing so well!" Suddenly, he laughed and said loudly: "It turns out that life is just like this, just want to live well! I only want to live well! I actually figured it out today! Come, drink, drink!"
Everyone was drunk by him, only to feel that the complicated thoughts in their hearts were gone, and the direction and outline of life seemed slightly clearer for the first time. Life is not just a matter of time, whether it is merit, fame, or profit, it is just a mirror, and there is no need to force it if you can't get it, the key is the most important thing, just want to live happily by yourself! A hundred years of life is just a flick of the fingers, and it passes without paying attention to it, and as the song says, it becomes a portrait and hangs on the wall for people to remember. It's time to be happy, and it's also time to be unhappy, so why don't you forget the troubles and live happily every day?
Thinking of this layer, I suddenly felt refreshed, everything was unsatisfactory, and it seemed that I left with the mountain breeze blowing and blowing away. All that's left is the hope for a better tomorrow.
At this moment, when the mountain wind blows through the lawn on the top of the mountain, everyone's heart is full of joy and hope for tomorrow.
This night, due to the change in mood, the final result was enough to get drunk more than half of the people. The plan to return to the city at the end of the day was delayed, and it was not until dawn the next day that a group of people returned home, ending the outing that had changed everyone's mood.
