Chapter 57: Legendary Kitchenware
The bottom of the volcano.
Luo He sat next to the high volcanic rock, listening to the turtle talk about the past.
"My grandfather is Xuanwu of Emperor Wu's contract, and my father is Xuanming who follows Emperor Nong."
Xuan Turtle said slowly: "And in my generation, the object of my service is the empress at that time. According to you, it has been more than a thousand years ago. ”
Hearing this, Luo He looked at the timeline.
First of all, the three emperors of Donghuang were not in the same era, but from far to near.
Emperor Wu is about 6,000 years ago, Emperor Nong is more than 4,000 years ago, and Empress Nu is in a dynasty more than 1,000 years ago.
Xuangui's grandfather, as the first generation, is a Xuanwu who is the same body as a turtle and snake and loyal to Emperor Wu, and it is obviously a water system.
Its father is the second generation of Xuan Ming.
'Xuanming' is another name for Xuanwu, so its father is also a water-based divine beast similar to Xuanwu.
In the third generation, the blood of the snake was thin and became dominated by the blood of the turtle, creating the turtle in front of him.
In this way, the three generations of Xuanwu's grandchildren are all loyal to the three emperors of Donghuang, which can be described as full of loyalty and martyrdom.
Luo He scrutinized carefully.
With the strength of the Xuan Turtle, it is impossible not to know that he is a real fire pet beast.
So it has always emphasized that it is a 'water turtle', not a cognitive bias, but a deliberate one.
"No wonder the turtle wants to deceive himself and say that he is a water turtle."
Luo He secretly thought: "If the ancestor water god Xuanwu knows that there is a rebellious fire-type turtle among the descendants, it is estimated that he will be so angry that he will spit out the turtle jelly." ”
On the other side.
Li Wanqing's eyes flickered.
The reason was to investigate the beast tide, and later to collect fire-based treasures, and in the end it was involved in an incident involving the three emperors of Donghuang and totem-level pet beasts.
Today's encounter really shook Master Li's mood.
Li Wanqing restrained the surprise in her heart and asked:
"You already had this kind of strength a thousand years ago?"
Xuangui tilted his head and recalled, "At that time, I was still stronger than now. ”
Because he was a subordinate of the empress and the patron saint of the people at that time, the turtle has a sense of closeness to humans.
In addition, it has just woken up and is eager to communicate with the outside world, and in the face of Luo He and Li Wanqing's questions, it is almost always answered.
"Turtle senior, then why did you fall asleep under the volcano?" Luo He said curiously.
"First of all, I didn't sleep on a volcano, but on the mountain created by my grandfather's moves, Mount Xuanwu."
Xuan Gui emphasized lightly, and then said: "As for the reason why I am sleeping-"
"At that time, the resentment of the fierce beast suppressed by Emperor Wu, the primeval deep-sea dragon lizard, broke the seal and took away the overlord of Xuanwu Mountain at that time, the lava dragon lizard. I came to fight at the behest of the empress, and buried her at the foot of the mountain after the battle. ”
"Later, I was physically exhausted and could not leave the mountain, and I have been sleeping until now."
As he spoke, Xuan Gui glanced at Luo He and said:
"That big rock sitting under your ass was the skull of a lava dragon lizard hundreds of years ago."
Luo He was stunned for a moment, and looked back at the big stone.
I said how to sit and still be hot.
In this way, the Flame King Lizard in the mountain is probably the descendant of the Lava Dragon Lizard... Li Wanqing said in her heart... And the remains of the lava dragon lizard turned the originally ordinary Xuanwu Mountain into a volcano.
"How did you regain consciousness and gradually wake up?"
Li Wanqing asked: "As far as I know, the life origin of totem-level pet beasts can never be made up for by sleep. ”
Xuan Turtle sighed lightly, carefully discerned Li Wanqing, and said:
"Your strength is very rare, in the era of the empress, you can also be a general, no wonder you know about totemic things."
"You're wrong." Li Wanqing said: "It's just that me and my pet beast have been groping for the threshold of the totem level recently, so we will understand." ”
Xuan Turtle nodded and said, "As you said, just by sleeping, I won't be able to recover to the totem level for a long time. ”
So at that time, the empress personally took the food ancestor...... Oh, it's another name for the Nongdi. She came to me with a treasure from her ancestors, and told me that she named it 'Yunling', and that I could wake up again after sleeping in Yunling for thousands of years. ”
Li Wanqing was surprised and said, "The treasure of the ancestor? ”
"I know humans love treasures, but listen to me first."
Xuan Gui said calmly: "That treasure is neither a panacea, nor a divine weapon. ”
"It's just the kitchenware used to cook at the old man's house back then."
Xuan Gui said: "You don't need it. ”
There was a boom, like a thunderbolt exploding overhead.
Luo He and Li Wanqing said in unison, incredulously:
"Kitchenware!?"
Turtle: "......"
What is the state of humanity now.
I heard that the kitchen utensils could be excited like this.
"Kitchenware is a tool used by chefs, in other words, only chefs can use it."
Worried that the other party would misunderstand what he meant, Xuan Turtle patiently explained: "Even I, only because of the same vein as that kitchenware, can barely mobilize its energy. ”
"So, it's useless for you to be excited, because the kitchen utensils of the ancestor will not recognize humans other than the chef, understand?"
Luo He couldn't wait to remove the white cloth on the spot to reveal his armband, to show his identity - if there was an armband.
It's a chef!
No cook can refuse a piece of kitchen utensils.
In particular, this kitchenware was once used by Shizu, the legendary kitchenware!
Luo He said hoarsely:
"So, where can you see that kitchenware?"
Li Wanqing glanced at Luo He, her face was strange, and she looked at Xuan Gui and said:
"Senior, he has a stomach problem, so he looks very strange, don't be surprised."
Xuan Turtle lowered his head curiously, looked at Luo He and said, "Do you have stomach problems?" ”
Luo He also realized that his performance was a little out of line, coughed lightly, nodded and said:
"The doctor said that my stomach is not very good."
Xuan Gui stretched out his hand, pointed to the hot magma on the side, and said empathetically:
"Drink plenty of hot water."
Luo He was silent for a moment.
The hot water is really hot, and it gurgles.
Li Wanqing cast a look at Luo He and signaled Luo He not to be in a hurry, and then looked like he was listening, and said:
"Seniors, can you tell us about the origin of Shizu kitchenware...... We were very curious. ”
Sometimes, a qualified lobbyist doesn't need to say a word, just listen patiently.
Xuangui already has a desire to pour, and it is rare to meet an audience, so he is very relieved, and said slowly:
"You should know that Emperor Wu swept through the fierce beasts and established and defended the oldest territory of Donghuang."
"It can be said that Emperor Wu created an era that belonged to the sons and daughters of Donghuang." Xuan Turtle's words changed: "But because of the endless war, the land of Donghuang is full of miasma and evil, and hidden dangers are deeply buried. ”
"By the time Emperor Nong succeeded to the throne, the hidden dangers were already very serious. Even though Emperor Nong invented agriculture and medicine, and was worshiped as an ancestor by the people, he still could not avoid the outbreak of hidden dangers. ”
Xuan Turtle's tone became serious: "At that time, there was a great famine that swept through the entire Donghuang Continent, and many fierce beasts also took the opportunity to make trouble, and the people were struggling to survive. ”
"Shizu trekked through mountains and rivers to save the victims, encountered seventy difficulties in one day, and finally moved seven holy beasts such as Qinglong, Xuanwu, and Qilin with his kindness."
"The seven holy beasts, each take out a part of the most precious life source in their bodies and give it to the Ancestor Eater."
"Shizu used these seven sources of life to create seven pieces of kitchenware, and then set up a big pot on the land of Donghuang, and used dozens of legendary ingredients of five flavors that he collected all his life to make a pot of colorful soup."
"According to legend, this is a big pot of soup that 'can make the famine disappear.'"
Xuan Turtle swallowed his saliva: "When the soup is made, the heavens and the earth are shaken, and the colorful clouds are steaming. The soup was evaporated by the fire and floated into the sky, turning into a rain of rain and blessing the earth. ”
"Since then, there has never been a famine in Donghuang, and the ancestor has exhausted his energy and gradually faded out of the people's field of vision."
Xuan Turtle concluded and said, "The legend of the seven pieces of kitchenware has been handed down. ”
'Papapa' applause rang out.
Luo He turned his head in surprise and looked at the mixed-race beauty, only to see that her beautiful eyes were red, and he was moved.
Luo He was stunned... This tear is too low, hey.
"What are you doing?" Li Wanqing glanced at Luo He: "Applause." ”
Luo He couldn't tell for a while, whether this was a woman's acting skills or sensibility.
Call out Xiao Jiu and applaud with Xiao Jiu.
"So what does that colorful soup taste like?"
Luo He applauded, frowned critically, and said secretly:
"With so many ingredients mixed together, can it really taste good?"
The turtle nodded left and right, like a storyteller signaling the audience to be quiet, and continued:
"Continuing from the above, this volcano, ah no, in this mountain, there is a kitchen utensil handed down from the ancestors."
Luo He had mixed feelings.
Is this a leak?
You know that you're actually a fire turtle living in a volcano!
"In short, even if I tell you this, you have nothing to do with the kitchen utensils of the ancestors."
The turtle yawned, the wind howled and stirred up the magma, and said lazily:
"Okay, I'm a little sleepy, it's time to send you back......"
"Senpai."
Luo He spoke up and interrupted Xuan Turtle's eviction order.
The turtle was stunned for a moment, looking down on the elder youth.
"Please show me the food ancestor's kitchenware."
Luo He's dark pupils were deep, and there was a certain pride and belief burning in them.
"I'd like to give it a try and see if I can get its approval."
