Embers Ad Infinitum

Vol 2 Chapter 169: "Agreement"

Seeing that the Qian Bai team didn't speak, Cai Yi, the owner of the "Wild Pigeon" bar, thought they didn't know exactly what slaying pig dishes meant, and explained quickly:

  

  "This is the custom of Gu Hui's hometown, in the north of the north, the old world existed before it was destroyed.

  

   "Although most of the people on our side come from the'Linhai Alliance', there are also President Gu, and the corresponding customs are integrated.

  

"To put it simply, every New Year’s Day, the pig is celebrated by killing each part of its body into different dishes. For example, the pork belly can be cut into pieces and cooked with sauerkraut. Haha, there are no fresh dishes in winter. They are all made in advance. Pickled sauerkraut, this is convenient to preserve, very refreshing, really, with pork belly is a must, um, can also let blood intestines, blood sausage is to put something into the blood, mix with minced meat and spices, pour into the intestines It’s cooked in it, anyway, there are not many people from the Furnace Sect, just a lot of spices..."

  

   Hearing Cai Yi's description, Long Yuehong, Shang Jianyao and others swallowed saliva at the same time.

  

   "Stop talking, we haven't eaten yet." Jiang Baimian stopped the boss from saying nothing but doing nothing. "Why don't you make us this kind of dish today?"

  

   "Hao Le!" Cai Yi readily agreed.

  

   Then, he reminded:

  

   "It must be a little bit short of frozen meat."

  

   "It's okay." Shang Jian Yao looked like you could serve food right now.

  

  While waiting for the boss to cook, the "old tune group" played billiards again. This time, Shang Jian Yao and Long Yuehong had already started, and they played back and forth.

  

  Because there is not much meat to be defrosted in advance, Cai Yi first made a sauerkraut white meat and made a few bowls of rice, so that Shang Jian Yao and the others would fill their stomachs before preparing other food.

  

   "The meat is fragrant..." Jiang Baimian sandwiched a piece of pork belly, put it in his mouth, and chewed it up, "The sour taste is very greasy, and the whole meal is very special."

  

  Bai Chen took a mouthful of meat, digs a mouthful of rice, and looks at Long Yuehong and Shang Jianyao, who are struggling to eat, said:

  

   "Purely boiled meat is also delicious, especially fragrant, but you can't make it with wild beasts."

  

   When she was a wanderer in the wilderness, there were so many seasonings. Sometimes there was no salt. She finally got a piece of meat and couldn't save it. So she boiled it in plain water, knocked out the putty, and ate it on the spot.

  

   "Hmm." Shang Jianyao vaguely expressed his approval.

  

   They were eating well, and four people came in at the entrance of the bar.

  

   This is the Baixiao team that has had several connections with them.

  

   Lin Tong with black hair and gentle temperament sniffed:

  

"smell good……"

  

   While she was talking, her eyes had been fixed on the "old tune group" with a large pot of vegetables in front of her.

  

   "Can you buy fresh food in this bar?" Lin Tong walked to Jiang Baimian and Shang Jianyao, staring at the pot of sauerkraut and white meat and asked.

  

   Jiang Baimian laughed:

  

   "We saved the boss before, he asked it."

  

   "That's it..." Lin Tong showed obvious disappointment.

  

   "Would you like to eat together?" Jiang Baimian sent out an invitation.

  

   "Why is this so embarrassing? The boss only invited the four of you." Lin Tong said so, but his feet didn't move a bit.

  

   Jiang Baimian smiled and said:

  

   "It's okay, the boss still makes it for four people. I will open some cans and we will eat together."

  

   "Then open our cans." Lin Tong seemed to be waiting for these words, and just sat down.

  

   Bai Xiao, Lei and Zhang Shaopeng saw this, took a look at the pot of sauerkraut and white meat, and then sat down.

  

   Shang Jianyao and Long Yuehong politely went to the back kitchen and brought some of them out.

  

   "You are Tarnan's celebrities now, and you have solved such powerful "high-level unintentional people"." While waiting for the meal, Lin Tong did not know whether it was sincere or politely praised.

  

  Bai Xiao, whose half of his head shone with metallic light, nodded:

  

   "We have thought of a lot of ways and formulated a lot of plans, but we are not sure."

  

   It seems that you still have some confidence in your own strength... Experience lost and illusion, but still retain the idea of ​​solving each other... Jiang Baimian muttered a few words to himself, and responded with a smile:

  

   "It's mainly based on the'Miracle Sect'. We only provided some speculations."

  

   "No, no, in my eyes, mind is more important than force." Lin Tong expressed his opinion.

  

   At this time, they were allotted rice, and at the same time they stopped talking and stretched out their chopsticks.

  

   After eating the pot of sauerkraut and white meat to the bottom, eight people chatted while waiting for the follow-up dishes.

  

   "You made a lot of money this time? Finding the whereabouts of the missing robot can lead to ten non-intelligent robots." Jiang Baimian asked casually.

  

   "It's okay." Lin Tong said modestly, "This brings a lot of supplies back to the original city, but how to bring it is a problem."

  

   "Are you from the original city?" Bai Chen interjected and asked.

  

   "Yes." Bai Xiao replied calmly, with a purple-red right eye.

  

   The straight knife he was carrying has been taken off and he leaned aside.

  

   Lin Tong smiled and added:

  

   "We said that we are relic hunters, but we are actually a research team serving the'First City'."

  

   We said it was a relic hunter, but it was actually an investigation team on the causes of destruction of the Old World... Jiang Baimian slandered and asked thoughtfully:

  

   "In the field of biology?"

  

   "Yeah." Lin Tong nodded, "I mainly study genes and nerves. This time I came to Chilar Mountain to catch a kind of aberrant creature, Lightning Mink, and study the nerve aberrations on it."

   "I don't understand, why do we have to come in winter." Lei, who had always maintained a gentle smile, whispered.

  

   Lin Tong's expression suddenly became serious:

  

   "The subsidy for going out in winter is higher."

  

   Upon hearing these words, the four members of the "Old Tune Group" suddenly felt that this lady was very kind.

  

  Sure enough, they are all teams serving big forces, and the wool of the organization has become an instinct.

  

   At this time, Shang Jian Yao looked at Bai Xiao and asked with envy:

  

   "Did you make the mechanical transformation in the original city?"

  

   "Fortunately, I was in the first city at that time." Bai Xiao responded concisely.

  

   "He was assaulted at the time and was seriously injured. He may not survive without modification." Lin Tong helped to add.

  

   Jiang Baimian suddenly felt the same way, and asked with a smile:

  

   "Is that revenge?"

  

   "It means that it is still there." Bai Xiao pointed to the irregular shrapnel inlaid on his forehead.

  

  Because it must be the secret of the other party what the transformation was done, Jiang Baimian ended this topic and chatted about other things.

  

   After another while, Cai Yi served two dishes, one was sweet and sour meat, and the other was steamed and sliced ​​sausage.

  

   "Would you like to drink some wine?" He knew that the two ruin hunter teams in front of him were both very strong ones, and he deliberately pleased him, "I'm pleased, but only fruit wine, not drunk."

  

   "Okay!" Lin Tong glanced left and right as soon as he finished speaking, and smiled at Bai Xiao, Lei, and Zhang Shaopeng, "I'll just drink a little, a little bit."

  

   Why did I suddenly have a bad feeling... Jiang Baimian murmured when he saw it.

  

   Ten minutes later, Lin Tong was holding a cup with only a shallow layer of liquid, his face flushed, and he swayed to the "old tune group" four people:

  

   "If you have a chance, I will treat you to the first city!"

  

   Jiang Baimian glanced at Bai Xiao and the others, and found that they were all helpless.

  

   "Good!" Shang Jianyao happily agreed to Lin Tong's invitation.

  

   After drinking and eating, the two teams waved goodbye and went back to their respective homes.

  

  …………

  

   After washing, Jiang Baimian returned to the living room and saw Shang Jianyao sitting on a back chair, wondering what he was thinking about.

  

   "What's wrong?" Jiang Baimian asked casually, wiping his hair with a towel.

  

   Shang Jian Yao said with regret:

  

   "The mission ended too early, and there is no fresh food subsidy."

  

   When he received the task related to the "Advanced Unintentional" before, Gnawa promised to prepare fresh ingredients for them.

  

   But obviously, this can only be obtained during the mission execution period.

  

   "Yeah..." Long Yuehong, who was studying computers, thought of this with regret.

  

   "Forget it, we won't stay here for a few days anyway." Jiang Baimian was taken aback.

  

   Shang Jian Yao still maintained a pensive expression, and said to himself:

  

   "I don't know when the baptism ceremony of the'Forge Sect' will restart..."

  

   Because of the outbreak of the "higher unintentional person", the recent initiation ceremony of the "forge sect" was postponed.

  

   "You can go back and ask, hoping to catch up with our schedule." To be honest, Jiang Baimian was still eager to participate in the sauna baptism.

  

   Shang Jian Yao nodded slightly, and then said:

  

   "I communicated with that island several times, but to no avail."

  

   "Huh?" The topic jumped too much, and Jiang Baimian, Long Yuehong and Bai Chen couldn't keep up with their thoughts.

  

   You just posed for a long time, just to talk about it? Is this the shy and awkward Shang Jian Yao? Jiang Baimian thought for a while and said:

  

   "What kind of fear the island represents, you may need to do an in-depth self-analysis yourself.

  

   "We can only give certain opinions, and cannot substitute for you."

  

   Then, she, Long Yuehong and Bai Chen each had their own guesses.

  

  …………

  

   In the dead of night, Shang Jian Yao sat up and lay on the head of the bed, hiding his body in the dark.

  

   He stared out of the sparsely shining window of the street lamp for a while, and slowly raised his hand to pinch his temples on both sides.

  

   In the shimmering "Sea of ​​Origin", Shang Jianyao went up to the sunny and green island again.

  

   He sat cross-legged on the beach, staring openly at the "ocean" ahead.

  

   I don’t know how long it took, Shang Jian Yao lowered his head, stretched out his right hand, and wrote a word in the fine yellow sand:

  

   "lonely"

  

   He stared at the word for a few seconds, then reached out and wiped it off.

  

   Then, he wrote a sentence:

  

   "Afraid it makes no sense?"

  

   At the end, the question mark is skewed and huge.

  

   After watching for a while, Shang Jian Yao erased the sentence again.

  

   Just like that, he wiped, wiped, and changed many nouns or short sentences.

  

   As time passed by, Shang Jianyao, who had been in a daze for a long time, once again wrote a sentence on the beach with his finger:

  

   "Afraid of losing everything you own?"
