Chapter 140: Exotic Dinner
casually found a big house with enough rooms, and Ke Li and the others went to the exotic dinner of the "Desert Pearl".
Dragonmen are undoubtedly omnivorous, but their omnivorous level is not that of beasts, but that of various terrain settlements, and they are full of portions and look like they are hearty.
The dishes brought by the jungle settlements are mainly all kinds of fruits, honey, and wine, while the plains settlements are mostly cheese, milk wine, bread, cured ham and other foods, and they will also make wine if they have more food reserves.
To Ke Li's surprise, there were dragons who had come from the snowy region, and the food they brought was mainly fish and animal meat, but also some nuts, mushrooms, special leaves, gums, and the like.
In addition, there are also dragon people who migrated from the volcanic area, their food is mainly barbecue, which should have been brought by hunting on the way down the mountain.
As the leader of the banquet for his compatriots and guests, Takeyaman also placed many ornaments such as precious stones on the table.
Luckily, the Dragonmen are different from the Lizardmen, disdainful of eating bugs and skewers, and don't like slippery ferns.
Otherwise, I will come to this dinner party today, and before I go back to bed, I am afraid that I will first have a miserable meeting, play a sad little song, and then hold a personal system of intestinal speed skating toilet racing.
During this period, Collie also whispered in the modern lingua franca: "Could that wine be made with saliva assisted fermentation, ambergris fruit wine or something?"
Mary, who was still trying to support her appetite, suddenly suffered a lot of mental attacks: "Don't say it's so disgusting, is it? I think they all love cleanliness, so there should be fermented ingredients that can be used instead, right?"
Ke Li asked with a smile, "Don't you feel disgusting if you can't see or know something?" I don't think they dislike other people's saliva, and it's normal for a few dragons to share a large piece of meat."
Without waiting for Mary to reply, Colly picked up a small glass of wine in a hypocritical manner.
He pretended to take a sip, but in fact manipulated the transparent flame to evaporate a portion of the water and alcohol.
Then he asked, "I've never tasted this kind of drink, can you tell us about the recipe and the process of making it?"
Hearing this, a few dragonmen looked at Ke Li, but most of them only cared about celebrating, eating and drinking, and did not pay attention to their questions and some small actions.
The demeanor is like: Cooking is not active, there is a problem with the head, you can drink if you like, why are you asking so much?
Only the seemingly taciturn Takeyaman said, "The brewing recipe of the dragon people was created from the blessing of the dragon, and you will not be able to learn it if you teach it, so you can drink more if you like."
"Eat what you get on the plate, don't take it in your pocket, it's the rule of Takeyaman."
"If you are caught eating half of the food and secretly throwing it away, you can ask your companion to eat it for you."
Speaking of which, the topic inevitably collided with saliva contact.
There doesn't seem to be any such concept among the dragons, they have good physical fitness, strong natural resistance, and they don't need to use these means and rules to avoid diseases and the like.
On the contrary, it is a person like Mary, because she lives in a human settlement all the year round, and when she really arrives in a foreign settlement, she will feel that the living customs are full of disillusionment, and the discomfort of not adapting to the local habits is uncomfortable, and she is challenging her ideals and work again and again, which consumes her ability to bear.
Fortunately, Takeyaman said that, and everyone ate noisily, let out some shouts of thanks or excitement, and this little episode passed away.
In the celebration, the dinner is only part of the prelude, and after eating and drinking, the group of big men who have nothing to do begin singing and dancing around the campfire.
However, to outsiders, their strange tone sounded louder than anyone's voice, not better than anyone's melodies and rhythms, even if they learned the language of the dragonmen.
Of course, Collie and the others were invited to sit around the fire and watch their performance
。
Ke Li noticed that whether it was a dinner party, a daily routine, or a special time to celebrate the dance, the dragons who appeared were colorful, but there was no such thing as cubs, which was a strange situation.
The most common alien races such as lizardmen, werewolves, and half-orcs are also treated with the same attitude, and when the cubs grow up, they look natural and normal, and they don't feel ugly or hide from people.
And the special and confident dragon people, on the contrary, maintained a sense of mystery in this regard, and no one mentioned this matter.
They play with themselves, and the dwarves are nothing more than outsiders to the dragonmen.
Although it helped, the bland sense of distance showed that they didn't treat the dwarves as equals in their hearts, but just teased the small animals and used them casually.
As a demon, Korley can both indulge himself and immerse himself in it, but he can also remain sober and calm, using powerful plans and instincts to resist enemy attacks.
Just as the celebration came to an end, an indescribable sense of familiarity quietly came to my heart.
Just like when I first met the traveling merchant, the sudden abruptness, the cloudiness of the mixture of ideas and characteristics, quietly appeared near the campfire.
Sure enough, after the dragonmen had had their own fun, they turned their heads and asked:
"The gods of the dragonmen are great dragons, it is the god of dragons who created everything, what are the gods you believe in?"
Then there is the topic of competition and combat effectiveness that has been quarreling since ancient times:
"Yes, you dwarfs must have gods too, right? Even if it's just a boast, can you talk about it?"
Ke Li's eyelids jumped slightly, and the lively atmosphere gradually quieted down.
Flanders and others also noted that caution should be exercised here, as the wrong thing could provoke hatred.
In order to help the person in charge of the siege, Kestrel and Yuelan took the initiative to explain their belief in the elven god, anyway, they are also elves who have left the big forest, and there is no blasphemy and taboo in this regard.
However, the dragons were not satisfied: "Hmm, do you believe in nature? Of course, nature was created by dragons."
Mary had no choice but to say, "I admire the legend of the Tower of Babel in the primeval times, when all the races of the world were united and spoke together to build the Tower of Babel to the divine realm, but no one has ever seen a real Tower of Babel."
The Dragonmen laughed, "The Dragonmen don't need those stones, the dragons have wings to fly through the sky."
Then there was Enzo, who pointed to the night sky without further ado, and Mary translated, "The moon, my faith is the moon."
The dragons complained casually, "It's nothing, it will only borrow other people's glorious gods."
Enzo asked Mary what they were talking about, and Mary had to fool around so that they wouldn't fight.
Then there was Colley, who said simply, "Ask me? On my side, I now only believe in fists and strength, there is no specific faith, only tools that work well and those that do not, and talking to me about faith is equivalent to talking about trade."
The Dragonmen were a little puzzled, and didn't seem to understand Ke Li's mental state and way of living, but they didn't dwell on it much.
Flanders looked left and right, and said crisply, "My faith is, dragons."
