Sui Xiong didn't go directly to Gars City, no matter what the guy who lured him out behind his back wanted to do, at least he wasn't in a hurry for a day or two. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

So he still stayed in Gray Tower City for the first time, and dealt with this matter related to the other three cities.

Greytower is the holy city of the Church of the God of Scholars, and although the God of Scholars has long since fallen and the priesthood has been taken over by the God of Knowledge, the academic atmosphere that has been formed in the city for a long time has not dissipated. Walking the streets, you can see young scholars discussing academic issues, and there are several open-air lecture halls for scholars who are not in a position to give lectures in the formal lecture halls to present their research results.

Sui Xiong flew stealthily over the city, just in time to notice a young scholar giving an open-air lecture, so he flew there curiously, lowered his height, and landed on a stout stone pillar, like a VIP seat in a theater, to enjoy a close listening to the lecture.

The open-air lecture hall in the city of Gray Tower is in the style of ancient Greece, with a semicircular pit dug in the ground, and rows of stairs are paved with stones, which are the seats. In the center of the pit, a circle of stone pillars surrounds a platform, which is naturally the podium. There is a groove in the center of the platform, which can be used to place a blackboard if you look closely. But there is no blackboard here today, so I guess there is no need for it.

When Sui Xiong landed on the stone pillar, the speech had not yet officially begun. A man with a tall figure but a little lewd was holding a notebook to study, while a few people who seemed to be familiar with him were talking about something.

"I don't know if Mado's speech will ......go well," said a young woman with freckles on her face, worriedly, "This is the second time he's given a speech, but the last time it didn't go well at all." ”

"That's his own fault. A chubby young man smiled and said, "Who called him so poisonous and so cheap?" He usually doesn't know how many people he has offended with his mouth, everyone can't scold him on weekdays, and he is afraid that the image of a scholar is not easy to do, and he has already accumulated an unknown amount of resentment. Once they find an opportunity, of course, they will attack him in groups. ”

"Yes, I remember the last time he talked about the difference between the nutritional value of freshwater fish and saltwater fish, those guys who had a problem with him actually found a few chefs to spray him in terms of taste, it was really miserable!" said a young man in a white robe and sighed deeply, obviously remembering the original incident vividly.

"yes, we all know they're nitpicking, they're finding faults, but a group of chefs are saying, 'Good food is the foundation of nutrition' or something...... He can't argue with that!"

"In fact, we all know that nutritious things are not necessarily delicious, and delicious things are not necessarily nutritious. There are several dishes in the Void City, and they taste very good, but if you eat too much, you will definitely get sick......" The fat man sighed and said, "But we know that it is useless, when it comes to cooking, the chefs are the authorities." ”

The content of the conversation between these friends sighing was naturally heard by Ma Duo, who was reading the notes next to him. He frowned, but didn't refute, just chewed and chewed in his mouth, as if muttering something, but didn't say it.

Sui Xiong was able to see what he was thinking clearly, and he was immediately happy.

(Hey!I can't think there's anything else to see!)

After a while, the audience or listeners came one after another, and Mado saw that the people were almost over, so he shoved his notes into his pocket, patted the dust on his body, tidied up his appearance a little, and then walked to the platform in the center of the lecture hall.

He cleared his throat, first thanked everyone for coming, and then introduced himself - his name was Mado Kong, a scholar from a minor aristocratic background, and a low-level mage. Because of his family background, he has been researching the nutritional value of food and has some insights. Even in order to improve his knowledge, he once went to Void City, the capital of food, to study for a few years, and really learned a lot of things.

Today he is going to talk about the trade-off between vegetables and meat.

But before he could speak, a tall middle-aged man with a red face had already asked: "Many people say that they live a long life if they eat vegetarian food, and some people say that they are strong when they eat meat." So what exactly is a good thing to eat?"

As soon as the middle-aged man spoke, Ma Duo's face was a little unpleasant, obviously the relationship between the two sides was not good. But since he was giving a public speech, he couldn't refuse other people's questions, so he had to stop what he was going to say and answer the questions first.

"Relatively speaking, it's better to eat meat. ”

"What's better about eating meat than being a vegetarian?" the man continued.

Mado pondered for a moment, introducing the topic into his speech.

He first listed the most important nutrients in food - in this world, there are also people who study this kind of thing, but instead of distinguishing the six major nutrients as on the earth, the nutrients in food are divided into five categories: "sugar", "meat and oil", "salt", "mana", and "ether".

Among these five categories, "sugar" refers to all foods that can be sweetened or processed to sweeten, which is roughly equivalent to "carbohydrates" on earth; "Meat and oil" naturally refers to animal protein and fat, as for vegetable protein and so on, people in this world have not studied it; "salt" refers to minerals and things such as cellulose; "mana" naturally refers to things that contain magical power, which is a unique nutrient in this world, and "ether" refers to those substances related to the level of life, which mainly affect the concentration of blood and the level of strength.

Manna and Aether are not in the scope of Mado's research - if he really studied these, then his research results would never be announced in such an open-air speech, after all, Manna is about power, and Aether is about blood, and both are of astonishing value, and all the research results about them can be called confidential.

His research focused on "sugar", "meat and oil", and "salt".

In Ma Duo's view, plant foods generally use "sugar" and "salt" as the main nutrients, mixed with some "oil" ingredients. Strictly speaking, they are certainly sufficient to meet the needs of the human body, but not enough to meet the needs of "health".

The crux of the problem lies in the lack of "meat", and although sugar and oil can compensate for this deficiency, it is ultimately less efficient than eating meat directly. Therefore, a vegetarian diet is actually not good for the body.

"And what about meat?" the man asked again.

"It's not really good to eat meat alone, but if you choose one or the other, it's better to eat meat alone. "Mado has apparently studied several animals as examples—vegetarian animals are inferior to meat-eating animals in terms of reproductive ability and robustness.

"The most important gap is actually lifespan. "Even when predation is artificially excluded, the lifespan of vegetarians is much lower than that of carnivores, apparently as a result of inadequate nutrient intake." ”

Since that person came to smash the field, he is naturally no stranger to these. Hearing this, he didn't refute it, but just sneered a few times, sat down, and waited for Ma Duo to continue speaking.

But there is no doubt that he will attack again.

Sui Xiong looked at the two of them with interest, and looked forward to this speech a lot.

As a foodie, he would love to understand the idea of "healthy eating" in the world. (To be continued.) )
