Chapter 26 Brother, my sister-in-law and I are innocent!
"Next...afternoon?" Wilson and Cinderia looked at the dark night sky with surprise: "How is this possible?"
Zhao Qiankun smiled and said, "We set out yesterday and have been flying for more than a day. This afternoon, we entered the polar continent and then flew westward. This is the extreme north. Although we only flew a few thousand kilometers, we crossed several time zones. In short, this is just two or three o'clock in the afternoon."
"Then this sky..."
"Because it's the extreme night now!" Zhao Qiankun smiled and said, "The polar continent has several months every year, and 24 hours a day is dark, which is called the extreme night... There will be several months, 24 hours a day is day, which is called the polar day... This is because the earth revolves around the sun, which has an inclination... But calculated, the season of day and night should be about to usher in the season of day and night..."
"There is such a magical thing?" Wilson and Cinderia looked up at the sky. Suddenly, a green light gradually emerged, flickering and swaying in the night sky, like a giant snake floating in the sky, gorgeous, ethereal, beautiful...
"What is that?!" The two were stunned.
"Good luck!" Zhao Qiankun smiled and said, "I saw the aurora! Make a wish, it is said to be very effective!"
"Is this this... this also magic?" Xindeliya pointed to the sky excitedly, her tongue a little knotted!
"No, this is nature!" Zhao Qiankun also looked up and looked up: "Only this extremely cold place can you see the gorgeous scenery!"
The aurora lasted less than ten minutes before it ended. For fur hunters who have lived in Gentle Town for many years, this is a common police landscape, but the two people from the Babylonian continent were extremely excited. Sir Wilson regretted not bringing a camera here... No, he should bring a camera! He should bring an entire film production team to record this experience and edit it into a film. It is definitely an epoch-making masterpiece!
"I want to bring some video materials back?" Zhao Qiankun looked at Wilson with a smile: "This is simple. I will give you two burning beads. I will record whatever I want. It is much better than your old black and white movies."
The four of them walked along the street and soon arrived at the only tavern in the town. The huge plaque at the door was written in a genre: "Giant's Heel!"
This is also where he met Xuelian back then. Now the girl doesn’t know if she has given birth to the ninth tail…
Tinking in his heart, Zhao Qiankun carried the bear's legs and walked into the tavern with the three of them.
As the only leisure and entertainment place in the town, it has always been crowded. Compared to what Zhao Qiankun remembered, there seemed to be some decorations here, and there were two more people, carrying the meal plate and busying around.
Seeing Zhao Qiankun come in, a waiter who happened to be idle came up to greet him: "Welcome, what are you going to drink?"
This is a 16 or 17-year-old girl with the blond hair, blue eyes and snow-white skin with the Sailan logo, and sparse freckles on her face. She looks very cute... However, in this snowy and ice poles, she is wearing thick cotton jackets, and basically can't tell her figure.
"Is the one-eyed Luke here?" Zhao Qiankun asked with a smile.
"Are you looking for our boss?" The little girl looked at his bear legs that were already covered with ice on his shoulders: "Are you the food delivered?"
"That's right..."
"The boss is barbecue in the kitchen!" The little girl pointed to the back door.
"Thank you!" Zhao Qiankun's eyes swept across the lively tavern and found that there was only a young bartender on the bar, and he did not see the boss's wife... the figure of the beautiful high elf.
"Is your boss's wife here?" Zhao Qiankun raised an eyebrow.
"Eh?" The little girl was stunned: "I've only been here for a few months and don't know about the boss's wife..."
He has been away for at least a few months? Zhao Qiankun shrugged his shoulders. It was not convenient to ask more about other people's housework, so he carried his bear's legs, lifted the curtain and entered the kitchen.
"Hmm?" At this time, Luke, who was working in the kitchen, heard the movement and poked his head out of the smoke and fire: "Who? Don't you know that I, Luke, are not allowed to visit? Go out!"
"Don't be so angry!" Zhao Qiankun smiled: "Boss, how is your dragon platoon selling?"
When he heard about Long Pai, one-eyed Luke was stunned for a moment, walked closer and looked at it a few times, with a look of surprise in his face: "It's you kid, long time no see!"
"The boss has a good memory and can still recognize me!" Zhao Qiankun laughed.
"I haven't seen one of the orientals in Wenrou Town for several years. You are so special! You can't forget it even if you want to!" Luke smiled and said, "But your meat really hurt me. You can't sell it. This person is too poor and can't afford it. In the end, it's a low price!"
"The low price is not lower than the snow bear meat!" Zhao Qiankun laughed and said, "Aren't you here to compensate you?"
As he said that, he took off the bear legs on his shoulders: "The best snow bear legs, just killed, are still fresh!"
When Luke saw it, his eyes lit up: "Wow, that's right, this leg must have three hundred pounds of base, right?"
Zhao Qiankun laughed and said, "It's a meeting gift, but I have to ask you for a glass of wine. The bear leg slices are well ordered, so I'll bake a few of them and give me two more wine and dishes!"
"Hahaha, it's easy to say, it's easy to say!" As Luke said hello, the little waiter ran in.
"Find a good place for these people, put on a few platters, two pots of gentle snow wine, one cold and one hot!"
"Okay boss!" The little girl quickly packed up a table and led a few people to sit down. After a while, the wine and two pots of wine came up. One pot was sitting in a mud pot, with some charcoal in it to keep it warm but not too hot; the other pot was considered room temperature... Of course, it was room temperature of the polar continent...
"I've seen you for the first time!" the little girl smiled and said, "You have to try this snow wine. It is a new recipe invented by our boss. It is sweet and refreshing, with endless aftertaste. It is the best wine in the polar continent!"
Zhao Qiankun laughed: "There are not many towns in the polar continent, and the taverns can count them in one hand. This first wine has a very high value!"
The little girl scratched her head embarrassedly: "It's all a highlight of her colleagues!"
Zhao Qiankun poured a cup of cold gentle snow wine, took a sip, and immediately said "um" with a look of surprise.
"It's not bad! Although it's considered a strong wine, it's not so choking in the mouth. It's sweet in the mellow fragrance. It's so skillful!"
Lilith was not interested in human food, but Cinderia and Wilson couldn't wait to taste it, and they all praised it: "This taste is so wonderful, I have never tasted it in Babylon!"
After drinking it cold, Zhao Qiankun poured another cup of warm snow wine and gently put it into his mouth. He couldn't help but shake his head: "This time it's warm and soft, it's much longer. Just as its name, gentle snow wine has a unique flavor! The same wine, the temperature has changed, and the taste has changed so wonderfully... Not bad, not bad..."
As he said that, he suddenly frowned: "The taste style of this wine is not like the polar land, and even Sailan Binghai does not have this kind of... It's more like the craftsmanship of the elves... It seems that it should be the work of your boss..."
The little girl felt embarrassed when she heard this: "Sorry, I really haven't seen the boss's wife... I heard from the customer, but the boss never told us that no one dared to ask about his temper..."
Zhao Qiankun nodded, remembering the majestic posture of Luke waving the kitchen knife to chase Xuelian, and no longer made things difficult for the little girl. She let her go, pulled a few people while drinking gentle snow wine while tasting the polar specialty dishes.
After a while, with a rough shout, one-eyed Luke walked quickly with a small cup in one hand and a large plate in the other. When the plate was placed on Zhao Qiankun's table, it was full of large plates, and steaming charcoal-grilled snow bear meat.
The aroma of barbecue penetrated into the noses of several people, making people's index fingers sniffed! But when they were about to start, Luke stopped him: "Slow down, there is still a process missing!"
As he said that, the cup in his right hand tilted, and a fragrant sauce flowed down the thread, and as it swayed, it poured onto every piece of barbecue, which immediately sublimated the burnt fragrance!
"Haha, it's ready to eat now!" One-eyed Luke made a gesture of inviting, and several people hurriedly put the slices of meat into their mouths and put them in their mouths, savoring them carefully.
It is really crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and the juice is full. With the sauce, the taste is brought to the extreme!
"Boss, your skills are sophisticated!" Zhao Qiankun gave Luke a thumbs up, and Wilson and Cinderia praised him even more.
"Haha, I'm not bad!" Luke waved his hand, simply moved a stool and sat down, picked up the wine pot, and poured himself a glass.
Luke's familiar posture was completely inconsistent in the eyes of Xindelia and Wilson, and he thought it was Zhao Qiankun's old friend. But Old Zhao was a little strange. He knew that the two met only two years ago, and at first there was a misunderstanding. Although they later turned enemies into friends, they were not familiar with this.
"Boss, why do you have something to say?"
Luke smiled and said, "What's your relationship with Sophia?"
"Who?" Zhao Qiankun was confused: "Who is Sophia's friend?"
"Tsk!" Luke glanced at him: "Pretending with me! Still pretending, right?"
Zhao Qiankun was puzzled: "I really don't know you, you won't remember it wrong, right?"
Luke looked at Zhao Qiankun and felt that he didn't seem to be lying, so he explained: "It's my boss's wife, the high elf you've seen before!"
"Ah?!" Zhao Qiankun had heard that the boss's wife was gone, and he thought it was difficult to mention it, but he didn't expect Luke to mention it himself!
"Your wife, ask me? No...Brother, have you misunderstood? My sister-in-law and I met in your tavern two years ago, and didn't even say a word. She abandoned you and had nothing to do with me...I'm wronged, really!"
"How could it have nothing to do with you!" Luke stared at the only one-eyed one: "When she left, she mentioned you specifically to me!"
Zhao Qiankun suddenly felt a sense of being unreasonable. "Then you might remember the wrong person. You don't even know what my name is, right? How did she mention me?"
"Just talk about the oriental man who gave me unknown meat!"
"Think about it, no other oriental people have ever given you meat?" Zhao Qiankun reminded.
"No..." Luke thought for a while and added: "I'm also saying that he is a pretty handsome one..."
"That's right!!" Zhao Qiankun admitted readily: "But I still have to say that your wife and I really have nothing to do. Before today, I didn't even know that her name was Sophia!"
"Oh, you misunderstood!" One-eyed Luke patted Zhao Qiankun on the shoulder, looked around, and whispered: "Sophia is not my wife!"
"What?" Old Zhao was stunned, feeling that he seemed to have touched some big secret.
"You know, she is a high elf, right?" Luke whispered: "When I first met her, I was only eight years old. She is already like this now... How could he marry a little brat like me!"
"Then you guys..." Zhao Qiankun was a little confused...
"Actually, she owned this tavern. I am just an orphan she took in. I claimed to be the boss and the boss's wife. But in fact, I just worked for her, just a chef..." Luke whispered: "To be honest, I don't know why she, a high-elf from the tropical rainforest, came to open a tavern in this cold place. But she opened it, and it lasted for more than ten years. Until two years ago, shortly after you appeared, she left!"
"Wait..." Zhao Qiankun waved his hand: "Are you saying that this matter really has something to do with me?"
"Otherwise!" Luke glared: "When she left, she handed the tavern to me, and then told me, you might come back. If you see you, go to the High Elf King City of the Primitive Continent, where she was waiting for you, and said that there was something to hand it over to you! It was the thing you needed the most!"
After hearing this, Zhao Qiankun frowned deeply.
Leave this sentence two years ago?
Who was I two years ago? A mysterious person who just ran out of the castle, without a background or a reputation, shouldn't be recognized by anyone in this world!
But since that's the case, why did this high elf named Sophia leave such a message? She knows who she is?
Zhao Qiankun rubbed his temples: "What do I need the most? What do I need?"
"I don't know this!" Luke shrugged: "You have to ask yourself!"
As he said that, the one-eyed man asked again tentatively: "Are you really not familiar with Sophia?"
Zhao Qiankun shook his head: "I'm not familiar with it, but I feel that she seems to be familiar with me..."
"Okay..." Luke nodded a little sadly: "If you can really go to the royal city of the high elf and see Sophia, I will give her a message. I thank her for raising her and miss her very much. If you have time, you can come back and take a look. I didn't move her room, I just asked someone to clean it, and all the displays were the same as when I left... By the way!"
As he said that, he walked into the kitchen and brought a mud-sealed pot: "Also, I have also transformed the appropriate flavor of the Elf Snow Wine, which is delicious with hot and cold. She loves drinking, and hopes you can bring her a taste!"
