C1308 Wind sand city specialty
After chasing the child away, no one came to disturb them. They asked for a passerby to find the biggest restaurant in the city. Someone pointed them to a sand building downtown.
"The accumulation of sand into a building. This name isn't suitable to be used as a restaurant." Ling Feiyu chose a seat close to a window on the second floor.
Their waiters were all at the Foundation Establishment stage, so they had to rely on their mana to control the dishes. It would be cleaner and more convenient if they didn't touch the dishes. The waiter first poured a cup of tea for each of them, "This young master doesn't understand, our Sand Towers is worthy of its name!"
Ling Su looked at the buildings and asked curiously, "What do they have to do with sand? I saw that the restaurants are similar to the other places, they are made of brick, clay and wood."
The waiter laughed, "I could tell that the three of you were from outside the city, so you didn't figure out where our Wind-sand City came from. Naturally, you wouldn't know about the reputation of Sand Building."
Ling Feiyu nodded her head and laughed, and asked: "Don't keep us in suspense, all you want is to give us rewards, is that enough?" He threw out a mid-grade fire-attribute spirit stone, which perfectly suited the waiter's fire attribute spirit root.
The waiter happily smeared it into the storage bag, he never thought that the young master in front of him would be able to see through his spirit root attribute. This meant that his cultivation level was extremely high, and he even thought that the fire attribute spirit stone was a coincidence.
"Heh heh, that's open enough. Then, I'll tell you all about the origin of Wind-sand City ?" The waiter proudly raised the corner of his mouth, and his nose buzzed as if he was brewing something.
Ling Feiyu could see this expression a lot more clearly, and it was very familiar. Many of the people around him would reveal this expression before they start bragging, and Tang Laobian was the representative, even Zhang Xueyi was the same.
Wind-sand City was the name of an ancient city, and right below this city was another city. This city was also the name of the ancient city that was buried by the wind and sand, and this was how the name of this new city came to be.
Five thousand years ago, the ancient city was still on the surface. Because of the war between the East and West Realms, all sorts of magic techniques were cast out, turning the place into a barren land.
After the war ended, the ancient city was gradually swallowed up by the desert, and all the original residents moved out. Only a thousand years ago did things improve.
The reason was because the sects that had been driven out by the orthodox sects were forced to occupy this place and had no choice but to improve their environment. It took them a hundred years to turn the desert into fertile soil and grow dense vegetation with the help of formation and manpower.
This was also why Elizabeth had doubts about the name of the Wind-sand City because of the lush greenery in the vicinity.
The ancient city was buried by the sandstorm, and the people who came after built the current Wind-sand City on the ruins of the ancient city. However, the ancient city was still there. Many more filthy and dark things that could make one's hair stand on end were happening right under their feet in the dark ancient city!
The waiter purposely used a sinister tone to say all of this, and finally laughed heartily, "Don't be so scared, the new city is actually quite good. The real villains, as well as those who do evil on the street right now, are all from the ancient city."
Elizabeth's face became gloomy, to her, the things that happened in the new city were already dirty and messy, but to the waiter, it was normal, and even considered good! It was hard to imagine what was in the ancient city.
"Thank you for your explanation, but you haven't talked about the source of the building yet." Ling Feiyu sensibly took out another Spirit Stone, and it was of the fire attribute. Every Spirit Stone was a story and every Spirit Stone, she took it out immediately without the waiter's reminder, with good eyes.
The waiter happily said, "Actually, there is a sand building underground. The location is exactly the same as the one on the ground, but the one on the ground should be a tower ?" No, it should be a pillar. "It's one of the 50 sand pillars supporting the ancient city. These sand pillars are incredible, and it's also those experts from the ancient sects who use their powerful mana to condense the loose sand into solid sand pillars, which then prop up the underground world."
Ling Su was enlightened, "Then it really can be called a sand building."
Ling Feiyu was not listening to the story, but the main point of it.
Firstly, the underground world is very big. There are ancient sects that have settled in here for a thousand years, they have the ability to gather sand to form towers, they have the ability to turn deserts into fertile fields, and they also have the means to establish a new order in the new city!
This meant that the combined strength of the ancient sects was not to be underestimated, but they were extremely sealed off.
Secondly, the fifty sand pillars were directly supported by the ground. If a few of the sand pillars were broken, it would very likely cause the ground to collapse as well. When that happened, the new and old cities would all be gone! Such an important thing would definitely be guarded by strong warriors, just like the Spatial Channel that Ling Feiyu used to connect with her Eastern Four Continents.
"After chatting for so long, the tea has turned cold. What would the three of you like to eat?"
"If you want something from your specialties that you can't eat elsewhere, you can just show it to us." Ling Feiyu laughed, he did not care about the money. Besides, how much can I spend on a meal?
The waiter liked to meet guests with this sort of attitude the most. If you didn't have to order any dishes, then he would serve anything, just pick the expensive ones. After all, he didn't care about money, he wasn't lacking in money!
Elizabeth looked down from the window and once again saw the ice pear juice vendor. He directly placed the pick on the opposite side of the building and glanced upwards, "Sir, that person is still there."
"Not just him, but the kid from before as well." Ling Feiyu smiled indifferently, "The moment we entered the city, we provoked both the official power of Wind-sand City and the forces of dark evil."
Ling Su pondered for a moment and threw out a question, "In this Wind-sand City, there doesn't seem to be any difference between the two ?"
Ling Feiyu laughed and scolded, "Don't spout nonsense, there are still differences. The food is here, let's eat first. "2
The waiter came up with five or six dishes and placed them all on Ling Feiyu's table. "This is the Red Braised Shark Meat, it's eaten with our specially formulated Congealed Dew, otherwise this meat would be extremely smelly and hard to swallow."
Elizabeth frowned, she pushed the plate of shark meat further away, the smell was too strong, she could not stand it.
"This tray has an origin ?" The waiter put down the plate of tender tofu. Even though he had meticulously controlled his Fa Li, he was still able to make the tender tofu sway on the plate when it vibrated. It was as smooth as a beauty's breasts.
The waiter said complacently, "This is tofu made from sand beans. It's completely different from the tofu you all have eaten before. It has different flavors, so you three can slowly taste it."
As he spoke, he brought out a dipping dish. Inside, it was a sweet, sour, spicy, salty, and spicy sauce. He just didn't know why such a tender tofu would be dipped in the sauce.
Ling Feiyu took a look at the tableware and understood what was going on. She scooped up a piece of tofu with a white porcelain spoon and used an even more exquisite brass spoon to pour some of the sauce onto the tofu.
This dish was very hard to categorize. If one were to serve Yu Quan's dining table, it should be placed in the category of "Cold Cuisine". It was a dish filled with all kinds of cold dishes.
