Luo He sat next to the tall volcanic rocks and listened to Xuangui talk about the past.
"My grandfather is Xuanwu who was contracted by Emperor Wu, and my father is Xuanming who followed Emperor Nong."
Xuangui slowly narrated: "In my generation, the person I worked for was the empress at that time. According to you, it has been more than a thousand years ago."
Hearing this, Luo He smoothed over the timeline.
First of all, the three emperors of Donghuang were not in the same era, but came from far to near.
Emperor Wu was about six thousand years ago, Emperor Nong was more than four thousand years ago, and Empress was in a dynasty more than a thousand years ago.
Xuangui's grandfather, as the first generation, is a turtle and a snake. Xuanwu, who is loyal to Emperor Wu, is obviously of the water system.
Its father is the second generation Xuan Ming.
'Xuan Ming' is another name for Xuanwu, so its father is also a water-type divine beast similar to Xuanwu.
Li Wanqing asked: "As far as I know, the life source of a totem-level pet cannot be compensated by sleep."
"Shizu traveled across mountains and rivers to save the victims, and finally moved the seven sacred beasts including Qinglong, Xuanwu, and Qilin with his kindness."
With Xuangui's strength, it's impossible not to know that he is a real fire-type beast.
I am not talented, I am a chef!
No cook can resist a handy piece of kitchenware.
Luo He wished he could take off the white cloth on the spot and reveal his armband to show his identity - if there was an armband.
"At that time, the resentment of the ancient deep sea dragon lizard, the ferocious beast suppressed by Emperor Wu, broke through the seal and affected the lava dragon lizard, the overlord of Xuanwu Mountain at that time. I came to conquer it according to the order of the empress, and buried it at the foot of the mountain after the battle."
"Drink more hot water."
Li Wanqing glanced at Luo He and signaled Luo He not to act too hastily, and immediately looked like she was listening attentively and said:
Xuangui nodded left and right, like a storyteller beckoning the audience to be quiet, and then said:
"Continuing from the previous article, this volcano, ah no, in this mountain, there is a kitchen utensil handed down from the ancestors of food."
Xuangui's tone became serious: "There was a great famine at that time, sweeping across the entire Donghuang continent. Many ferocious beasts also took the opportunity to cause trouble, and the people were in dire straits."
Calculated in this way, the three generations of Xuanwu's grandfather and grandson were all loyal to the three emperors of Donghuang. It can be said that they are full of loyalty and righteousness.
"So, it's useless no matter how excited you are, because the kitchen utensils of Shi Zu will not recognize humans other than chefs."
"So at that time, the Empress personally brought Shizu...oh, that's another name of Nong Emperor. She came to me with a treasure belonging to Shizu, and told me that she named this place 'Yunling'.
I only need to sleep in Yunling for thousands of years before I can wake up again."
Li Wanqing restrained her inner surprise and asked:
"Okay, I'm a little sleepy, it's time to send you back..."
Xuangui let out a light sigh, carefully identified Li Wanqing, and said:
"Your strength is very rare. In the era of the Empress, you were able to become a general. No wonder you know about the totem class."
Luo He was stunned and looked back at the big stone.
Xuangui said calmly: "That treasure is neither a panacea nor a magic weapon."
Xuangui lowered his head curiously, looked at Luo He and said, "Do you have a stomach problem?"
Luo He also realized that his performance just now was a bit over the top, coughed lightly, nodded and said:
"The doctor said that my stomach is not feeling well."
Black Turtle nodded and said: "As you said, I will not be able to return to the totem level just by sleeping for a long time."
"Senior Turtle, why did you fall asleep under the volcano?" Luo He asked curiously.
From this point of view, the Flame King Lizard in the mountain is probably the descendant of the Lava Dragon Lizard... Li Wanqing thought... And the remains of the Lava Dragon Lizard turned the originally ordinary Xuanwu Mountain into a volcano.
Xuangui already had the desire to talk, so he was very pleased to meet an audience rarely, and said slowly:
"So, what does that colorful soup taste like?"
There was a rumble, like thunder exploding above the head.
"According to legend, this is a pot of soup that can 'make famine disappear'."
The applause of ‘papapapa’ rang out.
But in the third generation, the bloodline of the snake became thinner and the bloodline of the turtle became the main bloodline, creating the mysterious turtle in front of me.
Xuangui said: "You don't have any use for it."
"Please let me take a look at Shi Zu's kitchen utensils."
"It's just the kitchen utensils used by the old man Shizu for cooking."
The hot water is really hot and bubbling.
Li Wanqing dug her eyes out at Luo He: "Applause."
Li Wanqing said in surprise: "Shi Zu's treasure?"
Xuangui was worried that the other party had misunderstood what he meant, so he patiently explained: "Even I am only of the same lineage as that piece of kitchen utensil, so I can barely activate its energy."
Li Wanqing glanced at Luo He, with a strange expression on her face, and looked at Xuangui and said:
"Senior, he has a stomach problem, so he looks strange. Don't be surprised."
What is the situation of human beings now?
Xuangui swallowed his saliva and said: "When the soup was ready, the heaven and earth were shaken, and the colorful clouds were steaming. The thick soup was evaporated by the fire and floated to the sky, turning into a sweet rain, blessing the earth."
Luo He turned his head in surprise and glanced at the mixed-race beauty, only to see her applauding extremely.
Call out Xiaojiu and applaud with Xiaojiu.
In particular, this kitchen utensil was once used by the Food Ancestor, a legendary kitchen utensil!
Luo He said hoarsely:
"So, where can I find that kitchen utensil?"
Xuangui raised his head and recalled: "I was stronger at that time than I am now."
Luo He considered it carefully.
"Senior, can you tell us about the origin of Shi Zu's kitchen utensils... We are very curious."
Xuangui emphasized lightly, and then said: "As for the reason for my deep sleep-"
The black turtle yawned, the strong wind howled and stirred up the lava, and said lazily:
"How did you regain consciousness and gradually wake up?"
On the other side.
Luo He spoke up, interrupting Xuangui's expulsion order.
"You already had such strength a thousand years ago?"
The reason was to investigate the beast tide, and in the end he was involved in an incident involving the Three Emperors of Donghuang and the totem-level pet beasts.
Luo He and Li Wanqing said in unison, incredulously:
"Kitchenware!?"
Li Wanqing's eyes flickered.
Hearing about kitchen utensils can make you so excited.
Xuangui: "..."
"In short, even if I tell you this, you still have nothing to do with Shi Zu's kitchen utensils."
Luo He applauded and thought to himself with a chef's mentality:
"With so many ingredients mixed together, can it really taste good?"
"You are ridiculous." Li Wanqing said: "It's just that my pet beast and I have been exploring the threshold of the totem level recently, so we have some understanding."
In addition, it had just woken up and was eager to communicate with the outside world. When faced with questions from Luo He and Li Wanqing, it almost answered every question.
Luo He nodded.
Xuangui was startled and looked down at the tall young man.
"Later, I was too exhausted and couldn't leave the mountain. I have been sleeping to this day."
Xuangui concluded by saying: "The legend of the seven kitchen utensils has been passed down forever."
Luo He was in a complicated mood.
"senior."
Is this a slip of the tongue?
You clearly know that you are actually a fire turtle living in a volcano!
Therefore, it has always emphasized that it is a "water turtle", which is not a cognitive bias, but intentional.
The Black Turtle stretched out his hand, pointed at the hot lava beside him, and said understandingly:
I wonder why it's still warm even when I'm sitting there.
"The seven holy beasts each took out part of their most precious life source and gave it to the Food Ancestor."
"No wonder the Black Turtle deceives himself and others, saying that he is a water turtle."
"By the time Emperor Nong succeeded to the throne, the hidden dangers were already very serious. Even though Emperor Nong invented agriculture and medical skills and was regarded as the ancestor of food by the people, he still could not avoid the outbreak of hidden dangers."
"After that, there was no famine in Donghuang, and the Shizu exhausted his energy and gradually faded out of the sight of the people."
Luo He thought to himself: "If our ancestor Xuanwu, the water god, knew that a rebellious fire-type turtle was born among his descendants, he would probably be so angry that he would vomit out turtle paste."
Sometimes, a qualified lobbyist does not need to say a word, he just needs to listen patiently.
"You should know that Emperor Wu swept away the ferocious beasts and established and defended the oldest territory of Donghuang."
"First of all, what I sleep on is not a volcano, but the mountain peak created by my grandfather's moves, Xuanwu Mountain."
As he said that, Xuangui glanced at Luo He and said:
"The big rock you are sitting on was the skull of a lava dragon lizard hundreds of years ago."
"Kitchen utensils are tools used by chefs. In other words, only chefs can use them."
Luo He was silent for a moment.
"I know humans like treasures, but you need to hear me out first."
Because he was once a subordinate of the Empress and the patron saint of the people at that time, the Black Turtle felt close to humans.
"It can be said that Emperor Wu created an era that belonged to the children of Donghuang." Xuangui changed the topic: "But because of the endless wars, the land of Donghuang is full of miasma and evil spirits, laying hidden dangers."
"What are you doing standing still?"
"The Ancestor of Food used these seven sources of life to create seven pieces of kitchen utensils, and then set up a large pot on the land of Donghuang. He used the dozens of legendary ingredients in five flavors that he had collected throughout his life to create a pot.
Colorful soup.”
Luo He's dark pupils were deep, burning with pride and belief.
"I want to give it a try and see if I can get its approval."
