"Dahu, go boil these locusts with boiling water. Once they're dead, wash them clean and soak them in the water. Sprinkle some salt and marinate them!"
Li Zexuan passed the bamboo tube to Wang Dahu and instructed him as he came to the small kitchen.
"Ah ~? Grasshopper ~? Yamachō, the new dish you're talking about is for me to cook grasshopper ~? "
Wang Dahu was about to reach for the bamboo tube when he suddenly realized something. He shuddered and said with a face full of fear.
Li Zexuan rolled his eyes and said with annoyance, "That's right! This dish is deep-fried grasshopper ~? What's wrong ~? You're making a fuss over nothing! "
Wang Dahu was tongue-tied. He swallowed and mumbled, "Erm, Yamachō, you can't eat grasshopper ~! You'll offend the Locust God! "
In ancient times, due to the lack of knowledge about locusts, the probability of a locust plague was even higher. When faced with locusts that filled the sky, people said that they were formed from fish eggs. When they entered the water, they would turn into fish and shrimp. Furthermore, when the locusts covered the sky, due to fear, people called them the "Locust God".
When a locust plague happened, the locusts would cause serious damage. Wherever they went, the trees, crops, and even the grass would be eaten clean. The farmers would not be able to harvest anything. This caused many poor people to lose their homes. They would starve to death on the streets and their corpses would be exposed in the wilderness. Even so, the people only knew how to worship the locusts. They did not dare to hunt the locusts. They allowed the locusts to eat the crops because they were afraid of the Locust God's revenge.
When he heard that Li Zexuan wanted to deep-fry locusts, Wang Dahu did not dare to accept Li Zexuan's order, not to mention whether these things could be eaten as a dish or not. Based on the people's reverence for the Locust God, Wang Dahu did not dare to accept Li Zexuan's order!
"Locust God ~?"
Li Zexuan did not understand what a Locust God was at first but after some thought, he understood. He was angry and wanted to laugh at the same time. In his previous life, he heard about the story of Yao Chong, the wise prime minister, destroying the "Locust God". At the time, he was still grumbling about how could the ancient people be so stupid to treat locusts as gods? But now that he saw it with his own eyes, he had to believe it!
"What kind of bullshit Locust God is this? This is just a little grasshopper, a little grasshopper that will die if you step on it ~! "
Li Zexuan casually took out a grasshopper from the bamboo tube. With a "Pa Ji" sound, the green grasshopper was immediately flattened, and yellow liquid flowed out of its body.
"Did you see that? If this thing was the Locust God, how could it have been stomped to death by me? Have you ever seen such a weak god? "
Li Zexuan pointed at the crushed locusts on the ground and shouted.
Wang Dahu was dumbfounded. He knew that many children liked to catch locusts for fun. Even if they died, no one would care. After all, they were children. The gods probably wouldn't blame them, but Li Zexuan wasn't a child!
Seeing that Wang Dahu was still in a daze, Li Zexuan said earnestly, "Dahu, although you are not a student of Yanhuang College, you are considered half a student of Yanhuang College! As a student of Yanhuang College, you must understand that there is no god in this world! These locusts are a disaster to the crops, how can they be called gods? This is ridiculous! These things are only fit to be boiled in oil, do you understand? "
Wang Dahu was stunned for a long time before he nodded and said, "I understand!"
"Hmm, very good! Then go and do as I say! "
Li Zexuan could see that Wang Dahu had not completely changed his mind. He did not force him. After all, those old ideas were deeply ingrained in his heart. Without some time to digest them, he would not be able to completely abandon those old ideas.
"Yes ~! Yamachō ~! "
…
On the field, with Cheng Yaojin as the temporary chief instructor, the students of Yanhuang College had a particularly heavy training schedule. The students felt that today was several times more tiring than the first day of military training!
"Run ~! Run ~! One two one, one two one, one ~ two ~ three ~ four ~! One two three four ~! "
The instructors of Yanhuang College were like shepherds with whips today, and the students were like a flock of sheep. Under the shepherd's whips, they had no choice but to run with all their might, even though they did not know when this kind of running would end.
Clang clang clang clang clang ~!
When people were in pain, time would pass very slowly. However, no matter how slow it passed, the time that should pass would always pass. Just when everyone felt that a year had passed, the sound of the drums and gongs finally rang for the end of Yanhuang College. All the students could not help but heave a sigh of relief. They felt that if they were to train for a while longer, their entire lives would be gone ~!
"Beep beep ~! Gather ~! "
Cheng Yaojin whistled and roared with his strength in the Grandmaster Realm.
Speaking of which, this bamboo whistle was almost broken by him this afternoon. It had to be said that Old Cheng's lung capacity was really big. After blowing the bamboo whistle for an entire afternoon, the students of Class 1 still felt that their eardrums were buzzing.
In a dozen breaths of time, all 16 classes of Yanhuang College had gathered. This speed definitely would not have happened a few days ago.
"Okay, for most of the students, today's training is over, but …"
As soon as Cheng Yaojin said this, many students realized that something was wrong. What did he mean by most of the students? Didn't all the students' training end ~?
Cheng Chumo's heart skipped a beat. It's coming, it's coming. The trap that the old man had set for everyone from the beginning was finally going to be revealed ~!
"The batch of students who have a foundation in martial arts that were selected in the morning, don't go eat first. Go eat after two hours of additional training ~! From now on, you will be called the special training class ~! "
In the morning, Cheng Yaojin had selected a total of 36 students who had a foundation in martial arts from more than 600 students. During lunch, these students did indeed enjoy meat that they had not eaten for a long time. Therefore, in the afternoon, except for Cheng Chumo, they were secretly glad that they had been selected by Cheng Yaojin in the morning. This way, they would be able to eat meat every meal in the future. It was really a blessing ~!
But now, after Cheng Yaojin's words, they finally understood why there was a saying that there was no free lunch in the world! Tricks, it was all a f * cking trick ~!
The academy's tricks are deep. We are going back to Chang 'an City!
"There's actually additional training?"
"Why ~? In the morning, High Duke Lu did not mention anything about additional training ~! "
Some students could not help but talk about it below.
"Pfft ~! Haha ~! Ugly Ox, it seems that I have really wronged you. It turns out that High Duke Lu is not targeting me ~! Haha ~! "
The happiest person was none other than Li Tai. When the little fatty saw Cheng Chumo and Li Ke's bowls filled with meat in the afternoon, he was filled with envy, jealousy, and hatred. But now, our Prince of Wei expressed that if he wanted to eat vegetables, then so be it. At least it was better than having to train for two hours!
