Even though he traveled around the Amazon jungle and was surprised to find that the further north he went, the more Atlanteans were there, and when he saw the curious scene on the streets of 'Atatao', the black-haired young man couldn't help but widen his eyes and muttered to himself: "Is there a 'show of aliens and monkeys' here, how can there be so many Atlanteans on the street?"

Ah, there are quite a few Asians and Westerners, what the hell. In addition to being surprised, a strong curiosity rose in his chest at the same time.

In order to get the answer as quickly as possible, Zhang Lisheng looked around, strolled to the side of the street, in front of a thin indigenous boy wearing an open fancy green shirt and two rows of ribs, and said in the Salororu language, which is spoken in most of the jungle countries of the 'Amazon': "Child, do you want to earn money for lunch?"

"Lunch in Atatao is not cheap, sir. The skinny indigenous boy was stunned for a moment, looked up and down at the young Asian who was dressed like a homeless man, pouted, and replied in a breathless manner.

"I'm afraid it's not worth a piece of 'sand gold', right?" Smiling slightly, the black-haired young man touched the pocket of his shorts, and with a flick of his hand, a parabola shining with golden light appeared between him and the indigenous boy.

Seeing the bright golden light of the sun, the indigenous boy was full of excitement, and with extremely agile movements, he took it in his hand, and when he looked at it, his palm was a gold nugget the size of a little fingernail.

Swallowing and spitting, he put the gold nugget in his mouth and bit it, and his face immediately piled up a flattering and well-behaved smile, and he no longer had the slightest slippery and annoying look, and nodded politely and said, "It's a pleasure to serve you, sir." My name is Sututa, and I am the most honest and capable guide in the whole city of Atatao, what do you command?"

"My name is Zhang Lisheng, and I'm also very happy to have your services, Sututa," far away in a foreign country, the black-haired young man did not shy away from jokingly reporting his real name and said: "Let's go to lunch first, well, of course I pay the bill, I hope you won't refuse." ”

"Thank you very much for your generosity. Mr. I don't know what your taste is, do you like Chinese food, Western food, or Amazonian local food?" Sututa asked politely, and for a moment the dark-haired young man in front of him had the feeling of ordering food at a famous restaurant in old Manhattan, New York.

"There are Chinese and Western restaurants in the city of Atatao. Oh. It was so unexpected. Sututa," Zhang Lisheng opened his mouth and said in astonishment: "Then Western food is good, authentic Chinese cuisine is not something that anyone can make." Toasting and frying steak is simpler. ”

"Sir, the Chinese dishes of 'Atatao' are all cooked by real Chinese chefs, and the taste is very authentic. When the indigenous boy heard the black-haired youth's words, he was slightly stunned, and quietly looked at him again, and at the same time corrected him in his mouth.

"There are also Chinese chefs in Atatao," Zhang Lisheng couldn't help but become more and more curious, "Then let's go eat Chinese cuisine for lunch."

Let's go, Sututa, and I'll ask you a few questions by the way when we get to the restaurant. ”

"I know everything about Atatao City, sir," Sututa said with a clever smile, "please follow me." The black-haired young man turned around and walked backwards for one or two hundred meters, and came to a restaurant with a signboard hanging above the front of the door that read 'Heyue Building' and a couplet of 'Authentic Cantonese Western Cuisine, Dessert Soup King' on both sides.

"Sir, this is the hottest Chinese restaurant in the whole city of Atatao. Politely pushing open the festive red wooden door, the native boy turned to his generous employer and stepped into the restaurant.

Looking in from the door, the restaurant's furnishings and décor are quite Chinese, with two rows of black solid wood tables separated by red curtains in the rectangular hall;

On the walls, antique large-scale framed calligraphy and ink paintings hang from the walls.

Zhang Lisheng looked at the seats that were almost full, and said to himself, "Cantonese food and soup are not very pleasing to me. Shrugging, he walked in after Sututa, and sat down on a wooden chair near an empty wooden table near the oval wooden counter where the statue of the God of Wealth of China was placed.

As soon as he sat down, a young man with yellow skin, black hair, and a clean and neat white coat strode to Zhang Lisheng's table, handed over the menu, and greeted warmly: "Two gentlemen, welcome to Heyue Tower, what do you need?"

After taking the menu and flipping through a few pages, seeing that there were only photos of the dishes and Chinese introductions, Zhang Lisheng's curiosity rose to the top, thought about it, and said casually: "Let's have a boiled shrimp, Cantonese-style Wenchang chicken, roast goose, hibiscus crab, and the soup should be old and beautiful."

Sututa, what do you want to order yourself, you're welcome. ”

"Yes, sir. Smelling the unique stir-fried aroma of Chinese cuisine in the restaurant, the thin indigenous boy quietly swallowed his saliva, secretly looked at the face of the black-haired young man opposite, and saw that the employer was not hypocritical and polite, and excitedly selected the most delicious dishes on the menu, and said: "I want barbecued pork, pearl meatballs, Cantonese meat...", and also asked for four dishes and one soup before stopping.

Authentic Chinese Cantonese cuisine pays attention to 'light taste, less quantity and refinement', so it is normal for two diners to eat seven or eight dishes, and the young man in the restaurant listened to the order, and was not surprised to Zhang Lisheng and Sututa, "You asked for boiled shrimp, Wenchang chicken...

Your dishes are barbecued pork, pearl meatballs... Is it?", repeating what they had ordered, and after receiving an affirmative answer, they put away the menu and turned around and walked back to the counter.

After the guy left, Zhang Lisheng couldn't hold back his curiosity anymore, and immediately smiled and asked the indigenous boy: "Sututa, you seem to be very proficient in the Chinese language and writing, I don't know where you learned it?"

"Proficient in Chinese," the native boy showed a stunned expression, blinked his eyes, shook his head and said, "No, no, sir, I can understand Chinese, and I can understand square words all by this..."

As he spoke, he wiped his eyes with his left hand, a small piece of transparent film like a contact lens appeared on the tip of his finger, and then his other hand took out a cork-like earbud from his ear, "The translator invented by the Atlanteans can translate more than a hundred languages on the earth, haven't you seen it?"

"Oh, I've seen the first generation of this thing, and now it's obviously improved, making it smaller and more convenient," Zhang Lisheng was stunned for a moment, shrugged his shoulders and said: "I remember that this kind of translator was very expensive at the time, but I didn't expect it to be so popular now." ”

"It's not popular in other places, sir, especially if I bring an alien's 'original product', not an imitation of the earth, if you sell it in a place where the political situation is stable in China or the United States, it can be worth at least half an apartment.

But in 'Atatao', this thing can be exchanged for a pound of good coffee, and there is no way to supply it well, and even the best things will become cheap. Sututa said in a sophisticated tone that sounded very different from his age.

"Yes, Sututa," Zhang Lisheng asked the biggest question in his heart with a dumb smile, "It seems that 'Atatao' is really a magical city, so you can sue me, why is it so magical?"

"It's a question that few people can answer correctly, but I know by chance," Sututa said with a cautious expression on his face, sticking his head out, and in a low voice, "Because this is the backyard of the Atlantean soldiers' recreation, it has attracted countless spies, merchants, and adventurers.

There are more than a dozen cities like 'Atatao' in the entire continent of Nanmizhou, and Atatao City is not the most prosperous. ”

The indigenous boy's answer was far beyond Zhang Lisheng's imagination, he was stunned for a moment, and asked again suspiciously: "Atatao City is the back garden of Atlantis soldiers' leisure and entertainment, what does it mean?"

"That's what it means 'back garden', sir," Sututa seemed to be unable to imagine that his employer couldn't even understand such simple words, and after thinking for a while, he explained with difficulty: "Those aliens are more civilized than us earthlings, but they live very rigid lives, and they don't know how to live happily.

That's why I come to Atatao City to spend time on holidays, just eat good food, dance, drink and so on..."

"Are you fooling me, Sututa..."Listening to the explanation of the indigenous boy, recalling the red-haired aliens he had come into contact with, some were cunning and fickle, and some were dull and cold, Zhang Lisheng really couldn't imagine that the Atlanteans would like the pastime of ordinary earthlings, and couldn't help but say coldly.

As the smile on his face disappeared, a hideous and terrifying aura like that of a carnivorous beast facing rabbits and antelopes naturally emanated from his body, and Sututa, who was shocked in an instant, could not breathe freely, his whole body stiffened, and his skin was covered with goosebumps like wheat grains.

The instinct to survive made the native boy exert all his strength and wanted to speak out to explain, but the vocal cords paralyzed by excessive fear made him unable to open and close his mouth weakly like a fish leaving the lake and sea.

Fortunately, looking at Sututa's distorted and swollen black and red face at this time, Zhang Lisheng suddenly realized that just like the indigenous teenagers and his pre-godhood self were all earthlings, the Atlanteans with a population of tens of billions must also be all kinds and different.

Moreover, with his social status in 'Millican', the aliens he came into contact with were all elites in the Atlantean civilization, and he naturally behaved extraordinarily, and it was impossible for him to be obsessed with the entertainment of earthlings, but ordinary aliens themselves had never been in deep contact with them, and they didn't know anything about their lives.

Thinking of this, Zhang Lisheng shook his head apologetically, and his expression eased suddenly, "Oh, Sututa, it seems that I am a little nervous, sorry, you continue to say, what are those aliens doing when they come to Atatao City?" (To be continued......)
