New hairstyles, new outfits, new people.

Brother Zhang looked at the mirror for a long time, looking at his strange self in the mirror, he suddenly felt a little funny, but when he got up, he still picked up the pair of glasses on the table.

With his glasses on, he was a complete mortal, and he could be contaminated with all the emotions and desires that he once shouldn't have, although he still knew how to contaminate these filthy things.

But that's okay, there's still a lot of time, take your time.

Walking out the door, he happened to see Rootless Water squatting in the yard with the otherworldly elf man studying the medicinal value of a plant, and he stood on the balcony on the second floor and took the initiative to say hello: "Morning." ”

Wugenshui almost stumbled when he heard this greeting, he looked back at Brother Zhang tremblingly, and squeezed out a smile that was even uglier than death: "...... early"

Brother Zhang nodded and walked downstairs, and the pony who was wiping weapons on the table saw him come down, and immediately wiped off all the weapons and blades before standing up and saying, "Boss, where are you going to play today?" ”

"I'll do it myself."

Brother Xiao Zhang lifted his glasses: "That's right, right?" ”

"Yes, yes, yes...... It's this state that you can start and find the feeling you want. ”

"Okay......" Brother Zhang glanced at the breakfast that had been prepared a long time ago: "Should I have breakfast?" ”

Pony patted his head and remembered that Brother Zhang actually had no human appetite at all, because he had no hunger, so food was just a concoction for him rather than a necessity.

"Eat, you have to eat, you have to eat three meals a day. If you don't eat, you'll feel hungry, and you have to get back the feeling of hunger back then. ”

Brother Zhang came to the chair and sat down, and then began to carefully recall how he should have spent the morning when he was an ordinary teenager.

At that time, he was in the first year of junior high school, and the teenager who couldn't sleep enough was in a hurry every morning, and the oil, salt, sauce and vinegar at home made the morning time like a battlefield.

Because my mother died very early, and my father was not a master cook, most of the time it was a bowl of egg fried rice or a bowl of egg noodles, although the life at home was not difficult, but the time in the morning was really tight.

And I don't know how long it has been since Brother Zhang has eaten that kind of egg fried rice with a burnt smell again.

"Do you know how to cook?" Brother Zhang asked Pony.

"How could I do that...... When I'm alone, I always eat instant noodles or self-heating rice. ”

"Can you help me fry a bowl of egg fried rice?" Brother Zhang smiled: "My fried rice is a little too exquisite." ”

"Okay, okay, I'll go."

Although Pony doesn't know what Brother Zhang's intentions are, the Holy Lord's words are orders, and he has no right to refuse.

Soon, there was a ping-pong noise in the kitchen, followed by the familiar smell of burnt eggs, which was the taste of spoiled protein when eggs were overheated.

After a while, Pony placed a strange bowl of egg fried rice on the table, and he said with some embarrassment, "I've done as much as I can, or I won't do it...... Let's go out to eat. ”

Brother Zhang just smiled and shook his head, took the bowl of egg fried rice that didn't look delicious and began to eat.

Does it taste good? It was really bad, but it was exactly the smell he was most familiar with, with a clumsy feeling and memories of the past.

The greatest function of food is naturally to keep people alive, but few people know that its second biggest function is to carry memories.

No matter how long it has been, sometimes you suddenly eat a familiar taste back then, and you can directly pull people back to the past.

Fifty years away from home, an elderly person may sometimes even burst into tears because of a scallion pancake, such is the power of food.

Brother Zhang was eating this bowl of unpalatable egg fried rice, but in front of him, his father was busy scolding in front of him, while he was sitting on the steps at the door and devouring this bowl of unpalatable egg fried rice.

He didn't know what he was able to eat such unpalatable food at that time, and if he traced it carefully, there was only one reason that was the most intuitive - hunger.

The memories of hunger were gradually pulled back, and the feeling of hunger and stomach rolling swept through Xiao Zhang's body in an instant, and his stomach made a rumbling sound.

Holding the bowl, he was stunned for a moment, just because he had not felt like this for many, many years, but the slight discomfort made his hands tremble with joy.

He lowered his head and gulped down his food, and although the food was really hard to eat, the feeling of fullness after the food entered his stomach made him feel his mood swings for the first time in ten years.

"The Point Guard Is Here"

Xiao Ma was a little scared next to him, because he had just eaten a bite of this meal, it was really something that the pig shook his head when he saw it, but Brother Xiao Zhang ......

"Boss, no, let's not eat, you don't have to take care of my face."

Brother Zhang just shook his head and continued to gobble up until he ate a big bowl of rice.

What followed was the feeling of fullness after the instinctive physiology was satisfied, this feeling was not worth mentioning in the eyes of most people, but it was just eating something that was not delicious, but in Xiao Zhang's place, he couldn't wait to break the satisfaction of that moment just now into forty parts, and repeat it twice a day.

After carefully experiencing the long-lost satisfaction, Brother Zhang sat on the chair in a silent daze for a long time, and finally felt a little anxious in Xiaoma, for fear that he would eat the plane guardian to death with a bowl of rice.

After about ten minutes, Brother Zhang began to breathe again, and he turned to the pony with a frown and said, "I have almost forgotten the most basic human senses. ”

"It's okay, let's find ...... slowly"

After breakfast, the two of them set off for a stroll, and they walked one after the other in the spacious streets of the wealthy area, where Pony kept observing Brother Zhang's demeanor, but found that although he was wearing glasses, he didn't have any special expression.

However, there was one action that suddenly attracted the attention of the pony, that is, when passing by a low bush, Brother Zhang subconsciously stretched out his hand and pulled a leaf down.

Don't look at this action is inconspicuous, but this means that Brother Zhang is now in a relaxed state, relaxed to the point that his body is not completely controlled by the brain, and part of it is still following the subconscious, and he has absolutely no such reaction before, because he is in a state of high tension all the time, and it is naturally impossible for the body to have this kind of cheap behavior.

And similar behaviors include walking and suddenly shooting a basket, walking and walking and suddenly saying a word, walking and walking with a good hand and suddenly posing in a star-absorbing posture, which is a common disease in men and is mostly found in young men.

In other words, part of the unhappiness of middle-aged people is likely to come from their refusal to let their instincts dominate their bodies and completely restrain their subconscious expectations, which eventually leads them to a similar situation as Xiao Zhang, that is, they forget how to be happy.

"Am I tired of walking?"

Brother Zhang suddenly glanced back at the pony: "I've walked more than 14,000 steps, normal people should be tired, right?" ”

The pony hurriedly waved his hand: "No, no, no, you don't have to deliberately count this thing, you just need to choose your most comfortable posture to live." ”

"Hmm...... Good. ”

How to say it, Xiao Ma thinks that this is a rehabilitation training, from his cognitive level, what Xiao Zhang needs is a comprehensive rehabilitation, from physical to psychological, so that he can gradually adapt to living in this world as a person.

And what is this about? Naturally, natural or fucking natural, there is no need to deliberately ask yourself to be like an ordinary person, anyway, no one cares why another person can walk 20 kilometers without gasping for air, and no one will delve into why a person does not feel hungry without breakfast.

The only person who really cares about this subtle difference is the person himself, and the more the person cares about this, the easier it is to enter from one pit to another.

"Boss, don't worry, let's take our time."

"yes, got it."

After a period of time, Xiao Zhang began to appear in front of others with a new look as much as possible, although it was not for a long time, but he had already begun to ask "can it be cheaper" after buying things, and he would also start to fiddle with his mobile phone at night and suddenly raise his head and say "This time is a bit too much money", and he would defend himself when he had an argument with someone outside.

These are things that he would not have done before, and even if he has an argument with someone, he will be in a very good mood when he comes back.

"What's up ahead?"

On this day, Brother Zhang and Xiao Ma went out for a walk as usual, but when they passed by a restaurant, they found that many people gathered there to watch the excitement.

Pony is a gossip person, he immediately goes up to make a fuss, but when he looks at it, he finds out that it is a restaurant opening, and then they open an event, which is to challenge their gold medal chef, and the winner will get a 100-inch super TV and a month's all-you-can-eat event in the restaurant.

The chef looked very young, about the same age as Brother Zhang, and he looked a little arrogant sitting there.

"Chief, try?"

"Try what?" Brother Zhang lowered his head and looked at the challenge content on the sign: "Challenge this?" ”

"yes, dampen their spirits."

In fact, this kind of business challenge is to go for popularity, why choose such a young chef, the reason is here. Those chefs who have been famous for a long time will not come, because it is not worth boasting about if they win, and it is a shame to lose them. And a chef who is about the same young may not have the same skills as him.

So...... This kind of activity is just a lively one, and then everyone waits for the boss to send some opening red envelopes.

Challengers, there are also them, but they are all good things for the audience who are confident in their cooking skills and the trust invited by the restaurant.

If you want to challenge professional chefs like Erdao and Wild Fox Zen, of course it is impossible, so Brother Xiao Zhang and they watched several rounds of chef challenges, and the first round of deboning fish was difficult for a large number of people.

"Here, here." Pony finally couldn't help it anymore, and after seeing another challenger being asked to step down, "We're going to sign up!" ”
