Chapter 82
...
Xia looked at Geer who was as young as himself, and seemed to miss his youth a little, and seemed to feel sorry for Geer. He stroked his long silver-white beard and asked:
"I have been living in this place since the shipwreck. It has always been bright, there is no distinction between day and night, and there is no sense of time, so I don’t remember exactly how many years I have lived here. , I only know that it has been a long, long time"
"I happened to be 15 years old when the merchant ship was wrecked. That year was 1420 in the Maritime calendar. Because that year our country’s football team won the World League championship for the first time, so I still remember it very clearly. By the way, Geer Boy, what year is it outside now?"
"Senior West Asia, it is now the year 1498 of the Hainan calendar. Geer thought for a while and replied, feeling extremely shocked at the same time.
I didn’t expect that this old man had been trapped here for 78 years. It’s really hard to imagine how he survived.
Geer suddenly felt that he could understand why. The little old man would talk non-stop after meeting him.
That was a full 78 years! He had been alone for nearly 30,000 days without anyone to talk to. Geer felt that he had no one. Insanity is already rare
"Haha, it turns out that it has been so long. I thought it was only more than ten years."
Hearing this result, Sia smiled heartily and looked up at the"sky" in a daze.
Geer admired the other party's optimistic spirit. Perhaps it was his optimist spirit that allowed him to survive until now.
After a long time, Sia Gradually his eyes returned, he sat casually on the deck, stretched out his hand to wave to Geer and said:
"Geer boy, come on, come and sit here, I think you are very close to me, and I must have a good chat with you today."
Ger really wanted to say, have you ever asked me if I wanted to?
But he still came to sit down next to Xia.
When Geer sat down, Xia took out a piece of white cloth from his arms and used his pair of The skinny hand opened it carefully, and saw a piece of black cake wrapped in brie.
"Click!"
Xia broke the cake into two halves with both hands. Just by the sound, she knew that the cake must be dry and hard. The little old man handed the larger half to Geer and said:
"Boy, are you hungry? Come on, eat something first."
"Thanks!"
Ger didn't want to live up to this old man's kindness, so he reached out to take the cake and put it in his mouth and took a bite. The taste was very ordinary and the texture was terrible, but what was a little surprising was that it turned out to be a piece of meat cake.
"It tastes good. What kind of meat is used to make this pancake? Senior West Asia."
Ger calmly put the remaining meatloaf into the system space, pretended to have finished it in several big bites, and then treated him politely.
Turning around, he saw the old man eating carefully, with one hand still around his chin. He refused to waste any leftovers, and Geer felt a little ashamed for wasting the old man's precious food.
Xia was praised, and a happy smile immediately appeared on the old man's face, and he replied while savoring the meat pie in his hand. :
"Hehe, you are talking about this black meat cake. This is made of mosquito meat. I caught it with a net bag on the island. It is not easy to catch so many and knead it into cakes. How about it? Is it delicious? I will teach you how to do it later!"
"Um, okay, delicious! too delicious !"
"Ugh..."
Geer turned his head and spit out all the meat patties he had eaten. He quickly took out water and rinsed his mouth, and then he felt better.
He never expected that the legendary African floater patties would be lucky enough to be eaten in another country. The world will really appreciate it after tasting it.
Geer bought two meat buns directly from the system mall and handed them to Xia:
"Senior Xia, thank you for sharing half of the precious meat pie with me. You must not be full. Come on, I also have pie here. You can try it."
"Ouch, it’s still hot and smells so good!"
Xia was a little curious, but he was not polite to Geer, because the smell of this cake already made his mouth water.
The little old man took the Roujiamo and took a small bite, because he was used to eating hard mosquito cakes.
It's easy to break your teeth if you bite it.
After just one bite, the little old man completely lost his ability to express himself.
What he wanted to express was: this cake is completely different from the mosquito cake.
The outer skin is crispy and dry, and the inner skin is fluffy and soft.
This cake is burnt on the outside.
It's tender on the inside, and you can smell the fragrance of wheat before you even eat it.
The meat filling in the middle is braised with a variety of spices and is very delicious.
The meat is fat but not greasy.
The combination of the two is really wonderful!
Xia just stared, babbled, and gestured to Geer for a long time, without saying a word that Geer could understand.
After seeing him finish a meat bun in just a few bites, Ge said. Er handed him the one in his hand, then took out a bottle of mineral water and said:
"Oops, please eat slowly. Come on, drink some water first. Don’t choke later."
Ger really felt pitiful for this little old man from the bottom of his heart. At the age of fifteen, which was the most precious youth in his life, he was trapped here alone, and he remained trapped for a lifetime, close to eighty years. I haven't seen anyone in this time. Most people would have completely broken down and committed suicide. Look at what the hell they eat every day. Fate is too cruel for this little old man!
"Gudonggudong~burp~"
After finishing two meat buns in one go, Xia licked her fingers again, drank half a bottle of water and burped with satisfaction.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Geer, I accidentally ate all your piece of cake. It was so delicious. I'll look for bird eggs later and catch some mosquitoes to make a cake for you. I'll definitely do it. fill you up"
���Realizing that he had also eaten Geer's portion, Sia said with some embarrassment:
When he heard that Sia wanted to feed him some cake, Geer quickly refused and said
"No need, Senior Xia, I'm full. If you're not full, just tell me, I have some more."
"By the way, boy Geer, where did you conjure up this cake? I see you are empty-handed, why do you suddenly have such a delicious cake in your hand?"
Hearing that Geer said he still had enough to eat, Xia couldn't help but asked curiously.
Having been away from the intrigues of human society for too long, Xia had no idea about the sinister society and the sophistication of the world. If he had anything to say, he would just say it. I don’t think it’s a taboo to ask other people’s secrets directly.
"Hehe, Senior Xia, I actually ate the Superman Pancake Fruit. I am a Devil Fruit user. I can conjure many delicious pancakes with just a drawing."
Gel made up a random reason, not afraid that his nose would grow longer and look like Usopp's in the future.
"Devil Fruit? Are you talking about the cursed fruit? You are a person walking on the sea, how dare you eat that thing?"
Xia was a little surprised. According to Geer's description, he could understand what he was talking about....
