Chapter 4-118: The Solicitation of the Amands
"Mr. Su Ze, please drink...... "Another Armand came over to toast.
The Armand people here also have the custom of toasting to the dignitaries, but when they toast, they do not drink it themselves, but only use a special wine glass, fill it with wine, and offer it to the dignitaries.
The cup used for toasting was the one that Cavey was holding at the beginning, and it was the one with a big head. I really don't know if this thing should be called a "wine glass" or a "soup pot".
During the banquet, they came up one by one to toast Su Ze, according to their customs. When each person toasts, they also sing a toast song to the guests or dance a toast dance.
Especially when dancing, it is most fun, because their hands and feet are stubby, and their bodies look like winter melons, and when they dance, they are like a winter melon rolling on the ground, which is very funny. Out of politeness, Su Ze had to hold back a smile, although there was no abnormality on his face, the intestines in his stomach were about to cramp.
The banquet was held in an atmosphere of singing and dancing.
............................................................
The Armand style of food is mainly grilled and stewed, and the food on the table is either grilled or boiled. However, their baking method has some characteristics, they do not use props such as grills and iron plates, and they do not use open flames to grill. Rather, it is a bit close to the Chinese method of "called flower chicken", in which the seasoned ingredients are wrapped in mud and then roasted in the hearth.
The difference, though, is that instead of mud, they use stone. The Armand people have a natural kind of spell - Stone Molding. They use their natural skills to use stones as mud.
This method of sealing the ingredients in stones and baking them is the first time Su Ze has heard of it in his life. However, in this world, I am afraid that only these Amandas with the talent of stone shaping can widely use this method to make food, and other races can't learn it even if they want to.
Although there are spellcasters in every race, spells are also a valuable power, and who would be so bored to waste spells in these places? Even if a few people can do this, it is impossible to spread it.
Even if Su Ze tastes it with a professional eye, he has to admit that this kind of food made with the "stone seal baking method" tastes really good.
Because the food is sealed with stones, the flavor of the food does not diverge, and the sealed stones act as a pressure cooker, so all the seasonings are fully penetrated into the ingredients.
Another important reason is the stone they use. These stones are also a bit exquisite, and they are not just a stone that can be used. Instead of using a single stone, they beat a variety of rocks and ores into powder, mixed them according to a certain ratio, and then made into sealed containers using stone plastic.
Therefore, the minerals and compounds in these rocks are also involved in the cooking process. Maybe it's because the mix of materials has produced some kind of strange change. Therefore, the food made by this method has a very special flavor, and the taste is not as dry as the ordinary baking method, but on the contrary, it has an extremely tender feeling, which is very delicious.
Moreover, these stone containers all have different recipes when it comes to making different food products. According to Kaifu, each city-state, each clan and even each family has some of its own unique stone powder formulas, with at least a thousand types. Su Xue was very shocked and admired when he heard this.
........................................................................
The food was delicious, the drinks were tasty, plus the hosts were warm and friendly. This meal was very comfortable.
After eating and drinking, Kaifu led Su Xue to his small living room and began to talk to him about business.
According to the custom of the Amanders, they do not talk about business at the banquet, which is only to eat, drink and entertain. This is different from the Chinese who like to talk about business at the wine table. Follow the customs of the locals, and Su Xue will also act according to their customs.
Regarding Su Ze's appearance, Kaifu is still very curious. Because Su Ze's appearance was different from any humanoid creature she knew.
Here, the largest number and the most civilized are the Lenfi people, and the group of priests in Iron Tree Fort is made up of this kind of human being.
The Lenfi people are also the closest to humans, their facial features are somewhat similar to the mixed blood of yellow and white people on the earth, their skin is gray-white, black hair and black eyes, but the most bizarre thing is that they have a crystal in the middle of their forehead, ranging from diamond-shaped, oval, round to jujube kernel type, which looks like a third eye.
In fact, the Lunfei people are the natives of the Lunfei continent, originally they were similar in appearance to other indigenous humans in the other world, their foreheads were not today, and their skin was not gray and white. The reason why it has become like this is probably because of the mutation of the Lunfei continent.
In fact, it is not only the appearance of the Lenfei people that has changed, but also many animals and plants have also undergone varying degrees of mutation. As a result, their appearance is very different from their counterparts in the main matter plane, and they don't look like the same kind of creatures anymore.
The same is true for the Armands, who, according to Cave, were not what their ancestors are now. A history book that Kai Fu took out had portraits of their ancestors on it, which surprised Su Ze very much.
The appearance of these ancient Armands was completely different from their current counterparts, and they looked like a kind of kobold. They were hideous-looking, thin, and tall, with an average height of almost 2 meters, far more than the current Armands.
This is...... Gnoll, Dog or Anubis?
Su Ze was very different, if it weren't for Kaifu's repeated statements, or even if he was killed, he wouldn't believe that this hideous creature would be the ancestor of the little mole in front of him.
This is too much, the werewolf has actually become a mole man......
........................................................................
"I really can't imagine that your ancestors are so different from you......" Su Xue closed the book and couldn't help but sigh.
"Mr. Su Ze, the world we live in is an abandoned world...... "Kaifu looked at Su Ze curiously, and couldn't help asking: "I heard from the polyrudito of the city-state that we Lunfei can't contact the outside world, Mr. Su Ze, how did you come here?"
Just now, Su Xue had already told her that he was not from this plane, but from the main material plane. In Su Ze's opinion, in terms of his origin, there is nothing to keep secret, because his appearance is not a local creature at first glance, and it is too easy to be exposed if he lies in this regard.
Therefore, instead of hiding and fooling, it is better to tell you directly and honestly. Anyway, in this multiverse, traversers are not a very rare thing, which plane has no outsiders? Although the number of traversers here is much smaller than that of other planes due to plane limitations, it is not completely absent.
Don't forget, in the past tens of thousands of years, there were many gods and demon lords who tried to develop their strength here, and of course they didn't come over alone, they all brought their own men.
Although all of their attempts have failed shamefully, the men they brought with them have not all died. Therefore, on the current Lunfei Continent, there are also many traversers from other planes, some of whom are well mixed and have established countries.
As for how they came, Su Xue didn't know, but it was definitely not as embarrassed as Su Ze. It didn't matter how he came here, Su Ze was concerned about how to get back.
But these guys can't be counted on, because according to Kaifu, these guys are like Su Ze and can't go back. Even their boss gave up. If they can go back, who will want to stay here? And those who can be brought in by the bigwigs to fight must be the elites of various forces, if there is a way to get it back, who will easily give up those gods and demons?
Hearing Kai Fu's question, Su Ze sighed and said, "Hey, I never thought I would be here." I was originally the viscount of the Han Empire, but I was attacked by a group of enemies the other day, and I got here because they destroyed my teleportation technique. Although I survived, my equipment, and even my clothes, were all destroyed by the space storm......"
He recounted what had happened to him very happily.
"Oh, I see...... You don't have to be too disappointed, it's best if you survive. If you don't dislike it, our castle welcomes you to join us......" Cave nodded and extended an invitation to Su Ze.
Su Ze's combat effectiveness, she has seen it with her own eyes. If such a fierce general can join his own city-state, it is undoubtedly a very cost-effective thing.
"Join your city-state?" Su Xue couldn't help but be stunned, he couldn't imagine that this little mole was actually a headhunter.
Seeing that Su Ze didn't refuse immediately, Kaifu continued to invite: "...... Mr. Su Ze, with your martial arts, as long as you are willing to join, I can guarantee you a position as an Elder of the Guest Qing...... I am the night watchman of the Marcurus clan and have this right......"
"Oh, I have to think about this matter, because I am still going to find a way to go back......" Su Xue thought about it and did not refuse immediately.
Because he is still ready to have a deep understanding of this race, which is also for the expansion of the Celestial Church in the future.
Seeing that Kaifu still wanted to continue to persuade, Su Xue changed the topic and asked, "Miss Kaifu, you started to say that your city-state is more than 500 miles away from here, so what are you doing here?"
Hearing Su Ze's question, Kaifu hesitated slightly, but finally made up her mind. She walked to the door first, looked at it, and took out another amulet to activate the magic inside.
This is the soundproof enchantment, and Su Xue recognized it at once.
Hehe, it's so mysterious, it seems that this matter must not be a trivial matter. Kaifu's actions made Su Ze also curious.
