Chapter 4: A sense of ritual

After cleaning up the little ants who had just turned on their spiritual intelligence and were in the stage of curiosity, Su Luo glanced at the sky outside.

"In the blink of an eye, it's noon again.

"It's a pity that I have cleaned up dozens of acres of land, fed so many chickens, ducks and geese, and I haven't even eaten a serious meal after a busy morning. ”

I felt like I was working too hard and needed to be treated.

Su Luo got up and went downstairs and went to the back vegetable field to pick a cucumber, a tomato, and two eggplants.

After putting the vegetables in the vegetable basket, he went to the rice field to harvest a handful of rice, precipitated the water, took off the husk, and filled a small cloth bag with about a pound of new rice.

I harvested a crop of wheat, sorghum and other miscellaneous grains, adjusted the feed and fed it to the pigs and chickens.

After the small animals were full, Su Luo picked the largest chicken with the most meat and killed it on the spot, slaughtered another pig and cleaned it up and carried it back.

Fortunately, the work of killing pigs and cattle does not need to be done by hand, and only needs a thought to complete.

It is treated in the same way as the manure discharged by animals and the household garbage produced, and an automatic cleaning and elimination function is set up in the slaughtering area to clean up the dirty blood and feathers after killing pigs and chickens.

On the way back to Xiaolou, Su Luo exhaled softly.

"It's so hard for an ordinary person to do all the work alone. ”

Beside him, carrying a slaughtered pig, the pig was stacked with a vegetable basket, and the vegetable basket contained a killed chicken and a cucumber, a tomato, four eggs and two eggplants. ”

"Hey, it's been a long time, not everyone has come over like this, what's not hard. ”

"Uh-huh," the little ant nodded twice in succession, and the whole pig on its body shook and almost fell off it.

Finally stabilized the things on his body, and did not dare to move any more, and the little ant's head was retracted from under the pig's body.

I crossed the bridge all the way back to the small building and unloaded all the ingredients into the kitchen on the first floor.

Su Luo skillfully chopped a pig's hind leg and stewed a Dongpo elbow for himself.

The elbow is stewed in the pot, and the chicken is cut into pieces, blanched in water, simmered on high heat, and the eggplant is cut into pieces and prepared, and then added when the chicken is cooked.

Steamed rice, cucumbers are finally beaten cold, tomatoes diced and four eggs scrambled together.

When the tomatoes and eggs are scrambled, the pot with the stewed chicken also gives off the aroma.

Su Luo poured the prepared eggplant into the pot, and the stewed elbow and steamed rice also gave off the enticing aroma of ripening.

Put the elbows on a plate and serve them with cucumbers and scrambled eggs with tomatoes in turn.

After a bowl of rice, the eggplant added to the chicken was just simmered.

After serving the four dishes and sitting at the table, Su Luo glanced at the poor little ant at his feet.

Turning around and going into the kitchen, he took out a small porcelain plate and placed it on the other side of the table.

Su Luo stretched out his hand and put the little ant on the table, and nodded the little ant's head, "You have also worked hard, let's eat it together." ”

I divided one centimeter from my bowl and put it on the little ant's plate, thought about it, tore a small strip of shredded chicken, sandwiched a piece of egg the size of a fingernail, and put it on the little ant's plate.

"Is that enough?"

The little ant was moved and almost burst into tears, "Enough is enough, thank you, master, it's so good." ”

"Well," Su Luo nodded, and accepted the little ant's thanks with peace of mind, "You are too thin, eat more to have strength." ”

"Uh-huh," the little ant was moved to tears, and ate a large mouthful of eggs, but from Su Luo's perspective, he didn't see that there was no trace missing.

"Master," after taking a bite of the egg, the little ant looked at Su Luo with blank eyes.

was tasting the taste of his stewed elbow, and Su Luo didn't raise his head and let out a 'hmm'.

"Master, you work so hard, why do you have to cook by yourself?"

When he saw the old man killing pigs and chickens, the pigs and chickens were dealt with by themselves.

It stands to reason that even if you want to eat, the pig and the chicken can clean themselves up, shouldn't they be able to cook themselves and put them in front of the master, right?

"You don't understand this," Su Luo sighed softly, turning his head at a forty-five degree angle to look at the sky outside the window.

"In this life, there is a lot of time when you need to have a sense of ritual. ”

"Ritual?"

The little ant tilted his head, didn't understand, lowered his head and nibbled on the chicken again.

It's so fragrant!

It's so delicious!

The lord is simply too good for it!

"Well, the sense of ceremony, you don't understand it. ”

Su Luo nodded, paused, and asked again, "Little ant, what are your dreams?"

"Dream?" the little ant tilted his head and thought for a moment, "Master, what is a dream?"

"Dreams...... "Dreams are what you ever dreamed of." ”

"No," the little ant shook his head dryly, "I didn't dream. ”

"Oh," Su Luo muttered, "you have to have it." ”

"Huh?"

"Just dream, you have to have it.

"If people don't have dreams, what's the difference between that and salted fish?

"Although you are an ant, since you already have a spiritual mind, you must be an unusual ant.

"Other ants can have no dreams, but you have to. ”

Although he didn't understand why he had a dream, the little ant nodded.

Everything the lord said was right.

"What does my dream think my dream should be?"

"Hmmm......"

Su Luo groaned, "One day in the future, the heavens and the earth will overturn, and the world will be catastrophic.

How about turning into a savior ant, a corner of the sky, turning the tide and helping the building to fall?"

Su Luo's words, the eyes of the little ants glowed.

After being intoxicated for a moment, the little ant lowered his head again, "Can ...... But I'm just an ant. ”

"What's wrong with the ants?" Su Luo shook his head disappreciatively, "Don't look down on yourself just because you're just an ant, you have to believe in your potential, you are my master."

"You may not be able to do what you said now, so you can set yourself a small goal first.

"When the small goal is achieved, set a medium goal for yourself, step by step, and turn the dream into reality. ”

The little ant moved, and looked at Su Luo with burning eyes, "Little target?"

Su Luo nodded, "It's like...... Become the overlord of our whole mountain or something. ”

"Good!"

The little ant crunched and bit off the chicken in his mouth, and set a small goal in his heart to become the overlord of the entire mountain except for the master.

One person and one ant, chatting while eating, but also quite interesting.

After Su Luo finished eating, he cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks, he had already eaten, and the little ant who came back from eating around the small building twice crawled in front of Su Luo.

"Master, master, I have decided, my dream in the future is to become a savior ant like you said. ”

Su Luo nodded and encouraged, "Very good, I'm optimistic about you." ”

"Uh-huh," the little ant nodded, "by the way, sir, in order to keep my dream alive, I also gave myself a name." ”

"Huh?" Su Luo asked curiously, "What's the name?"

"The catastrophe of the last days, the heaven and the earth overturned, the corner of the sky, turned the tide in the past, and the building will fall. The little ant repeated the dream that Su Luo had thought of for it before, and said with burning eyes, "The name I gave myself is Alicorn Ant." ”

Su Luo: "???"
