The Throne Under the Starry Sky Chapter 8: Psychedelic Sky Font (Part 2)


"Please, everyone must tell me that I saw the corpse just now...I, I'm not crazy..." Jonah looked around in panic. He just stepped on the floor and made an "arrow sprint" hole. , But the corpse and blood have indeed disappeared without a trace, the corridor leads to the dark distance, countless tunnel entrances are like countless mouths that only choose people to eat,

"Everything just now was not an illusion." The Rose Knight's reply made everyone put down the stone in their hearts at the same time. Elliott calmly looked around, "Don't worry, Lord Jonah, we didn't feel threatened. All this should be It’s harmless, let’s move on."

"Where to go, this hostel is not right, it's too weird..." Danny Stewart looked around with lingering fear.

The knight drove the unicorn to the front of the team, took off the lance and picked up a clinking little thing from the ground, "Mr. Waiter has left the clues, it looks like an invitation to a game Letter."

A bunch of keys dangling from the tip of the gun, two simple brass keys hung on the iron key ring, and two small wooden hangtags with the words "Tian Zihao No. 3", "Tian Zihao No. 4", the twists and turns of the Eastern Continent's characters are the same as the heavenly script to several Westlanders, only Danny, who has a little dabbling in any weird language under the guidance of the sailors, approached him. , Frowned and read: "The third word Tian, ​​what does it mean, a certain code word is still a person's name."

"It means the third and fourth rooms of the highest-class guest rooms." Long Ji gave a correct explanation. She pointed to an alleyway beside the passage: "Here it says'Yellow Number One Hundred Two. ', that is, the low-class guest room No. 120, our room should be in front."

"Let's go, what's so scary, isn't it just a hostel." The little grasshopper shook off his hand and hopped forward, and Jonah could only temporarily suppress the panic in his heart, and proceeded along the passage with his friends. After walking silently for a few minutes, Danny suddenly shouted: "Oh, how has this road changed."

Hannah? Stewart glanced back, waved and took off the "Climbing Henry's Prosthesis" from her back, and the big gun began to sneer to accumulate pressure, "Is it an illusion, or poisoning, Elliott, can Do you feel anything."

"You can call me Ellie, Miss Hannah." The Rose Knight replied, "Since Lord Jonah agrees with you as partners in the'New Pitchfork' team, we have no reason to be stingy with our trust. Besides, this is not Illusion or poison, everything around has indeed changed secretly without knowing it, and we can’t explain it."

The corridor originally covered with dark parapets, wooden floors and exquisite wall lamps has quietly turned into an exotic style with blue brick paving, white ash plastered walls, and bamboo fences across the alleys. No one knows that this change is When did it happen? When I woke up, I looked back and found that the path was completely Oriental. Every ten steps, there was a pair of flaming torches on the wall, and the ceiling was covered with white paper, vaguely returning I can hear the wind roaring outside,

"Ah, hell, what the **** is this... Hannah, you see, you will encounter such weird things if you don’t stay honestly in the endless sea of ​​sand, what is so good about this guy? ." Danny pointed at the cargo friend angrily, and Hannah glanced at her brother, she didn’t even bother to say the blame for hating iron and steel,

The astrologer squeezed his staff and used Sila Fauna's warm soul power to take away the fear in his body, "Go ahead, since the unicorn can't feel evil, then there is nothing scary, just treat it as... …It’s like a prank." He stabilized his mind and walked into the depths of the tunnel first.

It’s strange to say that the town looks brightly lit and smoked from the outside, and it looks like it’s very popular, but the new pitchfork team has been walking for so long without even seeing a tenant or waiter. I haven’t even found any significant evidence that someone lives here,

"Hey, here is the name of the sky." Sibi pointed at the handwriting on the wall sharply. Even though she didn't know the oriental characters, she felt that the characters on the key tag looked similar to the unknown blood-red characters on the wall. Yes, Long Ji nodded, "These two are Tianzi No. 1 and No. 2, and they will be here soon."

Partners increased their vigilance. After passing two black-hole alleys, a slightly wider fork appeared on the right side of the road. A black cloth flag was hung at the intersection with a huge red "wine" written on the flag.

"Tavern." Danny, who was still grumbling and complaining just now, came to his mind immediately, "Great, the light sparkling wine on the airship is really not addictive, just want to sell gold-labeled cactus wine. I was a little hungry after the battle. It’s best to have another steaming beef steak from the desert. You don’t need to add any sauce, and grill it on one side until it is five years old. After that, take the pot off the stove, sprinkle with coarse salt, and turn it over. , Use the remaining temperature of the pot to fry the reverse side until it changes color, and then you can serve it... Tsk tsk tsk, all the knives go down, the luscious gravy will splash out by itself."

"Do you think it's a good idea to drink in this kind of place at this time." Hannah said coldly,

"No, no, no, of course you can't drink cactus wine at this time. Although I have not drunk cactus wine, it sounds awful, and I must drink a large glass of Bazelal honey. "Sibbi said loudly, and dragged Jona to rush towards the tavern. The grasshopper's eyes were shining, and his eyes were full of eager anticipation for food. , Just take out the green thread that brings bitterness and astringency from the three threads, wrap it in egg, batter and bread flour, and fry it in hot oil for two and a half minutes, scoop it up and sprinkle it with pepper and salt. The crunchy texture and the sweet and fragrant taste...ahhhhhhhhhhhh, brother, you are going to die soon."

The astrologer couldn't resist the strength of Sibi, and was dragged into the alley. He reminded weakly, "That's not good, after all, it's in a weird place, Ellie, you're right."

"Although not long after having dinner, we also want to have some supper, Lord Jonah, there is nothing dangerous here." The Rose Knight surprisingly did not oppose this reckless behavior, but smiled: "I want to say I want to eat it most. For the supper, it should be the famous tartary buckwheat bread in the eastern part of the red plain of St. Boren. Although the entrance is a bit bitter, the long return to sweetness is the most wonderful enjoyment."

Hannah also put away the spear, "Then, what I want to eat is mixed vegetable pancakes, the kind my father used to make."

"The culinary skill of the dead ghost is dead, but luckily he only cooks on a whim." Danny shouted,

Long Ji tilted her head thoughtfully, and said to herself: "Do you miss the taste most?... Maybe it was the wild grape he fed me when he was eleven..."

"If you can eat everything, what do you want to eat the most, brother." The grasshopper looked at Jonah and asked curiously,

"Me?" The taste of countless foods flashed through his mind, and there was only one scent that he would never forget, "...If you could eat Toba's meat porridge again, how great would it be." The boy's face A touch of melancholy nostalgia emerges on it,

"Hahahaha, we think too much. It's just a small tavern in a small town or a small hostel. It would be nice to have a bowl of warm risotto and a sip of light wine." Stewart The boy at home smiled and walked in front,

As soon as an inexplicable conversation about food ended, the alley came to an end. Two black cloth curtains hung down, with the same red word "wine" written on them. Danny lifted the curtains and walked in, reaching out to say hello. Said: "Yeah, beautiful waitress, good evening, do you have any recommendations."

"Guest officials from the Western Continent, good evening, are you six? Please sit down. There are almost no customers at this time. You can eat anything you want." A clear female voice came, saying no The lingua franca that is too standard but tactful and pleasant to listen to,

Jona also bowed his head and walked into the tavern,

This is an oriental style tavern. The curved counter is full of wine jars with red paper. The four Eight Immortals tables are placed in the middle of the tavern. You can see Suiyang in the distance through the only window. With the blurred outline of the city, the windows ajar, and the same white paper, a young oriental woman turned out from behind the counter and enthusiastically arranged for the pitchfork partners to sit down. This girl was wearing a green headscarf and a moon white dress. His little jacket, lotus-colored pants and big red satin shoes, his face is round like a full moon, and his big eyes seem to be able to speak,

Danny blew a whistle, and then slapped Hannah on the back of his head. He aggrievedly opened the bench to sit at the table, and suddenly saw the chopstick holder on the table with a novel smile: "Oh, The legendary chopsticks."

"Don't worry, we will provide knives, forks and spoons for the guests from afar." The girl smiled, "Please sit down for a while, have a sip of tea, and the dishes will be served immediately." After she finished speaking, she was in shape. With a slight turn, it disappears behind the counter, where there is a (probably) small door leading to the kitchen,

"But, miss, we haven't ordered our food yet..." Jonah spoke for a while, was left there, and put his arms down awkwardly,

"Maybe it's a set meal. Everyone eats the same thing. The Eastern Continent is really interesting. Sister Long Ji, look at the peppers hanging in the window. Can you still eat the peppers after they are dried?" Xibi happily Looking around, constantly pulling the sleeves of oriental women,

Danny took a sip from the teacup, "Bah,...Dried chili is nothing, you taste this tea, little grasshopper, there is no sugar in the tea, there is no sugar in it."

This time Sibi jumped up and gave him a slap: "Little grasshopper is what you can call."

At this time, the girl with a turban reappeared, taking out various dishes and cutlery from a huge tray and placing them on the table, "Please, guest officers, you are welcome, this is carefully prepared by the proprietress."

No one spoke, the six partners were stunned at the same time,

In front of Jonah, there is a bowl of slimy red meat porridge with unknown ingredients.

Present in front of Long Ji is a plate of clean purple wild grapes,

In front of Danny, there is a steaming five-ripe meat steak with no sauce, plus the best gold-labeled cactus wine in the endless sand sea.

Present in front of Sibi, is a large amber glass of bazelard honey and a large plate of fried tri-nematodes.

In front of Elliott, there is a piece of black buckwheat bread that is not tempting.

Present in front of Hannah is a plate of miscellaneous vegetable pancakes.

"What's going on." Jonah looked at the Rose Knight for help,

"If it's a hallucination... let me die in the hallucinations." A large bite of fresh and tender local beef steak has filled Danny's mouth.
